Speaker
yeah Fuck Notre Dame, exactly. That's us. We are not strictly Buckeye-related. We are, however, on the same page of hating Notre Dame. Yes, we do. Yeah.
00:05:48
Speaker
But I wish Notre Dame would take their ball and go home. And the Kentucky Bengals. And the Kentucky Bengals. I got to say that. i can't even say that I hate, hate them. Like, they're not my least favorite team in the NFL.
Rival Teams: Bengals vs Steelers
00:05:59
Speaker
I was going to say, i mean, i and and i'm so I guess technically, quote, unquote, I'm supposed to hate the Bengals. But they're like the retarded stuff. But you're yeah You're not because your guys' his biggest rivalry is with Pittsburgh, not the Kentucky Bengals. I don't even hate Pittsburgh as much as I should. That's because you're not a true Browns fan. We've established your little you're all you you' free agency. the Ravens.
00:06:21
Speaker
i am i am I am currently... yeah It's so funny. So Cleveland hates the Ravens for what the Ravens did to Cleveland. And Baltimore hates Indy because of what Indy did to Baltimore. yeah It's like a weird...
00:06:34
Speaker
ah fucking domestically abusive fucked up AFC beatdown amongst three teams that hate each other. yeah exactly For no reason, though, in the fact that the team left in the middle of the night all three times. Yeah, exactly.
00:06:47
Speaker
Exactly. They literally picked up their shoes and snuck out of the house barefoot after the fucking you gave for the fucking you got. Yep, exactly. But speaking of my Browns, I will say a shout out to they did make NFL history this past weekend.
Browns' Historic Awards
00:07:04
Speaker
Defensive player of the year. My guy, Miles Garrett. Defensive rookie of the year. My guy, Carson Schlesinger, baby.
00:07:19
Speaker
Absolute monster. So I guess this is the first time in NFL history that two players from the same team, both on defense, won the defensive, you know, rookie and defensive player.
00:07:33
Speaker
of the year much deserved obviously miles garrett with his record-setting season 23 sacks and swissinger as a rookie with like 190 000 tackles a few fumbles couple interceptions force fumbles so uh shout out to the cleveland browns uh your your boy And I don't hate on the guy because he's a monster.
00:08:00
Speaker
ah Jackson Smith. JSN. Jackson Smith and Jigba. Yeah. Got honors. Vrabel. Coach of the year. sha not surprise Not surprised at that at all.
00:08:14
Speaker
Fuck you, Titans. This is what you get, you shitbags, for cutting a coach who was winning for you. Yeah. Yeah. And some other players. Sam Darnold, not Sam Darnold, Matt Stafford, MVP. MVP. I'm not mad about that. Matt Stafford. not mad about that either. Really cute. He had all four of his daughters up there, yep. That was really cute. I like Stafford. I'm happy for the guy. He's he's one of the quarterbacks you can't hate because he doesn't do anything to make you hate him.
00:08:42
Speaker
No, he just balls out. He just plays good football, man. Always. He always plays educated, aware football. Like the dude is โ I hate that Matt Patricia wasted so much of his career in Detroit.
00:08:55
Speaker
Yeah. Because I bet you, I bet you if he would have been anywhere but Detroit, he'd have five rings under his belt already. Oh, yeah, 100%. What up, man?
00:09:07
Speaker
You bearded belly man. Ryan's just mad we didn't include him. Yeah, don't be jealous. He is. um but Yeah, no i was that was...
00:09:18
Speaker
Pretty cool. I was like, yeah, there's there's there's something to look forward. I mean, something to take out of the season and be happy if you're a Browns fan was, you know, Miles Garrett and Schlesinger.
00:09:31
Speaker
So, but anywho, we got the big game today, man. Are you watching?
00:09:40
Speaker
um Probably only because it's Sunday night and there ain't really shit else to watch.
00:09:50
Speaker
So find shit else to watch. I don't know if I'm going to watch it, man. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know that's bad or not. I just I really don't have a dog in the fight. I'm obviously rooting for Seattle because you watch for the commercials at the least.
00:10:04
Speaker
Yeah, and pretty much. You know, I am. I am ready for for our guy. Sam fucking Darnold, because why not? How cool would that be you know if he gets a ring after after his crazy career?
Super Bowl Sentiments
00:10:20
Speaker
um Plus, let's be honest, you know, I still have a hatred for all things Boston sports. So go to hell, New England.
00:10:30
Speaker
and I would never, ever root for, i couldn't even, even as much as, even as much as I like Tom Brady, I still didn't root for the Patriots to win Super Bowls. Nothing made me happier than when that that special needs Manning brother beating twice.
00:10:46
Speaker
Yeah. We're not talking about Arch. He's the second special needs. We're talking about the one that's whoring himself out for subs right now. Eli stole Danny DeVito's job.
00:11:00
Speaker
Lies. E-lies. Girl Gone Grill in YouTube videos. Oh, Lord. That's what you're going to be watching. Oh, yeah? That's your world. all If I could get those two to make biscuits together with no clothes on, we'd be just like, hell yeah.
00:11:26
Speaker
No, I think I will. I think I'll have it on. You know, you know actually, i'm um I'm actually kind of thinking about jumping on DraftKings here in a little bit and maybe you throwing a bet down. I haven't made a bet all season.
00:11:38
Speaker
i just I got a couple of them lined up for it tonight. I've lost my dick off on the Olympics. That was stupid. are you okay I have not started to pay attention to the Olympics. I can tell you right now the downhill snowboard slalom today was fucking intense.
00:11:52
Speaker
There was literally a photo finish that was so close they couldn't put numbers on it of how far apart they were. it was like um literally a fingertip for gold. Or for bronze. I'm sorry. For bronze.
00:12:05
Speaker
Literally a fingertip. Literally.
00:12:12
Speaker
I see that we're currently sucking ass. We've got one gold medal. That's cool. Yep. but Yeah, that's pretty much the case for us. Yeah. I haven't paid any the attention to the Olympics yet, although I have been getting really confused because Lindsey Vonn is always fascinated. She crashed.
00:12:30
Speaker
Twice. But they keep talking about injuries, this, injuries, that, and then then then then they're like, oh, yeah, she's She's setting records. and I'm like, wait a minute. Is she competing or not competing? and Then I seen today. I guess she wrecked pretty good or something like that. Crashed pretty good.
00:12:46
Speaker
She ate a whole bag of shit um
00:12:51
Speaker
with apparently twice today. A whole bag of shit. Yep.
00:12:59
Speaker
I wonder if they'll let me pick on these. i don't know. i think but i think I'm going to look here in a little bit and I may i may throw down a I may throw down a couple couple bucks.
00:13:10
Speaker
I'm trying to see if I can pick punt and kick return yards.
00:13:19
Speaker
You're a degenerate. but all how many How many bets you got out there? I'm actually writing doing a bet right now for a buddy mine. But I've got four lines today.
00:13:31
Speaker
Desi Johnson, Australian bobsledder. i don't think I know who that is. I've seen that name pop up.
00:13:40
Speaker
We're getting all kinds of... ah
00:13:44
Speaker
I don't know. I've never really gotten into the Olympics. Oh, I love watching the Winter Olympics so much more. I'll watch hockey. But that's about it. You need to watch curling.
00:13:57
Speaker
It's fucking intense. Curling is fucking it intense. I do watch a little bit of the old curling from time to time. and I could totally do that.
00:14:13
Speaker
It is intense. I think I could do that.
00:14:22
Speaker
I cannot find this fucking line that I'm looking for. It's kind of frustrating. Maybe they don't have it. I don't think they do.
00:14:33
Speaker
I'm looking for kick return yards. last Last year, i put bets in ah for the AFC-NFC
Football Safety Concerns
00:14:42
Speaker
championship game and the Super Bowl. And between those two games, I think I won like $1,200, which was nice.
00:14:51
Speaker
ah Those does tend to work out in your favor. Yeah. going to grab my water, and I want to finish my coffee first. Yeah.
00:15:01
Speaker
But, yeah, I mean, really? Did you watch fights last night? No, the fight card was junk. Was it? Well, he was watching bare knuckle fighting or some shit last night. That shit's fucking stupid. Those guys are fucking, like, retarded.
00:15:17
Speaker
Like, legit. We were, chaka Chaka came up last night, and we were talking about uh about his son and he he was like they had a the neighbor's house caught on fire or something and his son like grabbed the fire extinguisher and they ran in together and put the fire out and he was like i was kind of surprised because i figured he was gonna be afraid i said that kid gets into a cage and lets other grown men punch him in the face right do you think he's afraid of a fire right i was like what the fuck get the hell out of here um
00:15:56
Speaker
Are there any big stories going into the Super Bowl? i really haven't heard much. um Not really. um
00:16:07
Speaker
I haven't really heard anything.
00:16:14
Speaker
Thoughts and feelings on Belichick getting the snub in the Hall of Fame?
00:16:20
Speaker
um You know, I'm... i'm It's not time yet. Not for him. You don't think Belichick should have been a first first ballot?
00:16:35
Speaker
Not yet. I mean, I personally hate the guy, but... i I don't think they can yet because there's too much of a possibility for him to be coming back.
00:16:44
Speaker
Because you can't be in the Hall of Fame if you're not retired five years. you know I don't can't believe that they fucking... They even wanted to bring him in because he hasn't been out of the NFL five years yet.
00:16:58
Speaker
Are you sure he hasn't been out of the NFL? I think he's only on year three. Feels like he's been out lot longer. Nope, I don't believe so.
00:17:10
Speaker
Because they had the one coach that stepped in for him for the one year and then Vrabel the last two.
00:17:23
Speaker
So I don't, I'm, I'm not, do I think he'll make it into the hall of fame? Sure. He's got seven rings. Oh yeah. Yeah. He'll definitely, he'll definitely get in there. But I don't think, I don't think he's been, I'm going to look real quick. I don't think he's been out of the NFL long enough.
00:17:39
Speaker
don't know. But shout to the 2026 class, Drew Brees. I like that. Drew Brees was awesome. Fitzgerald for sure.
00:17:51
Speaker
Yeah. Fitzy, 100%, man. Larry Fitzgerald was a monster. Spent his entire career with the Cardinals. You don't see that? Solacek has been out of the NFL for one full season, having last coached in New England in 2023.
00:18:07
Speaker
When did he? He wasn't coaching in 2023. January, but they parted ways in January 24th.
00:18:16
Speaker
he did not hold a coaching position through the 24 25 or 25 26 season so yeah he hasn't even been out long enough o yeah luke uh larry putzgerald is in that's awesome i was always a putzgerald fan i was super excited to see luke keekly get in yeah luke keekly um dude monster career cut short due to brain damage um Still in his seven seasons.
00:18:42
Speaker
Fucking rock star. We put up his stats. Dude was a fucking force on the field. Yeah, it was. Awesome for him to be in after such a short time in the NFL. um And super sad the way his career ended.
00:18:58
Speaker
But there's what is it? That's the chance you take. Yeah. No, i mean I mean, a lot of players, the CTEs and all that stuff, and You know, now you have the players that look like giant bobbleheads out there because they're trying to protect their brain.
00:19:14
Speaker
Yep. And as much as you want to make fun of them. Who's to say it doesn't work? i Yeah, I mean, i when I first seen it, I was like, what the fuck is going on? And then when I, and you know, as I you know looked into it and was like, oh, okay, that makes sense. you got Now it doesn't really, when I see it, it's... You almost don't even notice it.
00:19:32
Speaker
Yeah, they do look like a bobblehead, but it's like, yeah whatever. But you gotta think, I mean, let's let's take this into consideration. These guys are in their 20s. Brain damage now is going to ruin the the next 30 to 40 years of their life.
00:19:46
Speaker
yeah If they live that long. If they live longer longer. You have to do something to protect yourself. You have to. You're playing a dangerous sport with constant head contact. Yeah, you're basically in like 47 car crashes a game. Yeah, I mean, at the end of the day, ultimately, yeah. um It's...
00:20:08
Speaker
I'm not mad about it. I don't i think the helmets look ridiculous. They do. Everybody bitches when they change rules to take some of the aggressive hits and, I say, the violent hits out of the game.
00:20:23
Speaker
Everybody's like, oh, we might as well play flag football, bla bla blah, blah, blah, blah. These guys are getting paid a lot of money, yes. But would you literally...
00:20:35
Speaker
If you had a 50-50 chance of living or dying, yeah would you take that amount of money to do the same thing every weekend? no i mean you could You could fucking very likely be a vegetable.
00:20:46
Speaker
Yeah, exactly. and i mean That's one of the things. like As a football fan, do I miss the monster hits where you hear... it sounds like dear You hear the dude's soul leave his body. Yeah, you know yeah you miss him, but at the same time,
00:21:03
Speaker
As football, especially as fans, we we are more knowledgeable now and we can learn more now. But we didn't know. like they didn't They didn't know back then what was going to happen to their bodies and their brains.
00:21:17
Speaker
Yeah. You got to think about it this way, too.
00:21:22
Speaker
These guys are young. They've got young kids. They don't have fucking 25, 30-year-old kids. These guys have babies to like 10 years old on average. Most of them. Matt Stafford's been in the league for how many years? He's got four kids under the age of 12. Dude, you don't want your kids growing up with a potato for a dad from 12 years old on.
00:21:43
Speaker
Yeah. Phillip Rivers, same thing. He's got 19 kids and counting. You know? He does, too. It's just... I mean, if I had Matt Stafford's wife, I'd probably have four to six kids, too. But I'm still waiting for Colleen Wolfe to agree to our first.
00:22:00
Speaker
Yeah. Good luck with that. Let me know how that works out for you. She's all worried about the bikini body. I'm like, whatever, girl. Yeah. um Get you some time to drive. She'll be fine. Yeah, fuck yeah.
00:22:12
Speaker
I understand the... I understand both sides of it. You want that fucking action, that that fucking violent, we just decapitated a guy hit. Everybody loves to see somebody else's misfortunes. ah But at the same time, what amount of money is worth it for me to literally chance being a cripple for my kids?
00:22:38
Speaker
So, and people just don't see it that way. Even my dad, I fucking fight with him constantly about this. Constantly. He called, they're a bunch of pussies. No, dad, they have a life to think about. Yeah, yeah. Why don't you go out there and do that? yeah Take your oxygen machine and run down the field. And I'm guilty. I'm guilty of it myself. You know, I've said it before. Goddamn, it's going to National Flag Football League before long.
00:23:02
Speaker
You know, but as I've gotten older and again, you know, I have a curious nature. So i have a tendency to look into things and I learn more about the CTEs and, you know, what they're what they're actually putting their bodies through. It's like, yeah, you know what?
00:23:19
Speaker
If they make some rule changes, maybe I don't want to see, know, I want to see it, but it's nice when it happens occasionally. But maybe those wide receivers should not be getting blindsided at 20 hour.
00:23:30
Speaker
Yeah, know yeah damn near damn near fucking ripped in half. Yeah, you know. It's like, fuck, bro. Maybe you maybe you at 300 pounds, six foot five should not be coming in full speed at a quarterback who's already down the field.
00:23:47
Speaker
and completely And if you think about it, the quarterback is one of the smaller guys on the field. see His job is not to be big, bulky, and run-through players. His job is to be agile and get rid of that ball.
00:23:59
Speaker
Yeah. So it's, a they don't play as long as guys like Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers and Phillip Rivers and Matt Stafford because they're out there getting Joey Burrowed every fucking game.
00:24:14
Speaker
Yeah. That kid's going to have a very short career.
00:24:20
Speaker
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Joey B. Yep. You're getting sacked 50 plus times this season.
00:24:27
Speaker
This season, he got a break on the sacks because he was injured most of the season. But again, why was he injured? Because he's getting smoked every time he touches the ball.
Quarterback Protection Strategies
00:24:44
Speaker
with tonight, though, Drake May and Sam Darnold both very well-protected quarterbacks. Neither one of them takes a lot of fucking stupid hits that don't need to be taken. That's kind of exciting. I'm looking forward to... Sam Darnold fucking balled out last time. He had over 300 yards in that last game they played. Yeah.
00:25:03
Speaker
So, I mean... And then Drake May didn't because they played in the snow and it was super low scoring. That was... that was ah i It was a very low scoring game.
00:25:15
Speaker
I enjoyed that game. I thought it was a good game. The Cowboys-Denver, or the... I'm fucking reading his fucking comment. yeah um The past Denver game? Yeah, Denver-New England. Yeah, it was a good game to watch.
00:25:28
Speaker
Maybe next year's your next year is all is the Cowboys' year, right? So, hold on. Breaking news from Adam Schefter. Uh-oh. The Dallas Cowboys have officially been eliminated from the 2020... the 2016-2017 playoffs. Sorry, man.
00:25:42
Speaker
Maybe the year after. my Don't worry. Don't worry. I'm in the same boat truck. I'm a Browns fan.
00:25:56
Speaker
And then, of course, you got is you got Rick, who's a Buffalo fan. that they they they Yeah, it's always for us. Almost. Let's be real here. I don't even have room to talk shit to Cowboys fans because out of the four we lost, two of them were to Dallas in a row.
00:26:13
Speaker
Yeah. Like, fuck. Fuck yeah you, T-Rock. I've been waiting since 96. Bro, I've been waiting my whole life.
00:26:25
Speaker
And I was born in 86. Hey, shut up. At least you guys have been to a Super Bowl. What what is a Super Bowl? what's it Not two. Not three. Yeah. three yeah or What's it like to watch your team in the Super Bowl? I would love to watch the Browns in the Super Bowl, even if they lost, just so I could say, hey, they were there. I've seen it.
00:26:45
Speaker
Well, let me be honest with you. It happened so long ago. I don't even remember. yeah Because i was like I was like four through eight years old. Yeah.
00:26:57
Speaker
In all honesty, I would like to see the Browns in the playoff. I'd be happy with a couple playoff runs. You guys went to the playoffs a couple years ago, and then let's you guys shot your quarterback out to another team. yeah I would like to make it past the wild card round. Why give Cleveland fans any false hope by keeping a quarterback around that's good?
00:27:14
Speaker
exactly. When we can have 16 different ones over the course of five years. Yeah, 40-some in the last 26 years. Yeah. twenty six years yeah
00:27:25
Speaker
in Like a past fan felt It's so funny he said Emmitt Smith was the shit You had Emmitt Smith on one side of the ball And Bruce Smith on the Bills side for the other side And both of them were fucking Monster Smith Not related yeah not Wild not related Yeah Um
00:27:45
Speaker
um um and then we turn around it And then we turn around and shit can our fucking coach who has done something that the Bills haven't seen in almost 30 years.
00:27:56
Speaker
And we're just going to, well, fuck you, buddy. You go down the road and go find somewhere else to coach at. He's going to go somewhere. We're going to get slapped around by that team. And he's just going to secretly laugh every time he drives home from that stadium.
00:28:07
Speaker
but My only hope is that it's not the Jets, the Dolphins, or the Patriots. No, that's that's what's going to happen. Stefanski's going to go down there to Atlanta and they're going to win a Super Bowl.
00:28:22
Speaker
I doubt that highly, but okay. That's that's usually how it goes for Cleveland. I just don't see that being the case there, bud. I mean, you never know.
00:28:33
Speaker
I would prefer the opposite happen, and he doesn't. And he goes down there and stinks it up like they do in Atlanta. But
00:28:43
Speaker
ah yeah well're You just lost your DC too. Yeah, I know. He was all butthurt. Well, yeah, because he lost his boyfriend.
00:28:54
Speaker
Yeah, well, what are you going to do? Hey, there's always the 2028 season. fifty second
00:29:06
Speaker
I agree. The Browns and Buffalo need to get I wish we could get there together, but we can't. Unfortunately, we could play the AOC championship together. yeah yeah we could definitely play it. Yeah Now it's not like you know, I I I've said, you know, what would be and this and this state would lose its fucking mind if In baseball if the Indians and Reds both got their shit together at the same time You have the potential for an Ohio World Series.
00:29:38
Speaker
That would be pretty cool. Because I think the Indians are National League and the Reds are American. Did anybody get a new stadium recently that could host the World Series?
Cleveland Browns' New Stadium Plans
00:29:48
Speaker
Because you've got to be within the last five years of a stadium if you're going host.
00:29:54
Speaker
Yeah. ah Well, they're currently getting ready to build the new dome for Cleveland, the Browns. I can't wait until that's done. I can. so I learned a neat sports fact yesterday.
00:30:08
Speaker
If you rent a hotel room anywhere in the state of Georgia, anywhere, could be all the way down in Brunswick on the state line, six hours away from Atlanta, you pay a $5 hotel fee that goes to pay back the building of Truist Park where the Braves play.
00:30:28
Speaker
Really? Yep. Anywhere in the state of Georgia. they Every time they build a new stadium, this is what's been going on down in Florida. with With the Rays. Because ah the Rays... Dude, I feel bad for the Tampa Bay Rays. They have usually have a great baseball team.
00:30:46
Speaker
Baseball hockey, for sure. Yeah. But they cannot sell out that baseball stadium. Again, I think it has a a lot to do with the fact that it's Florida and it's 300 degrees and baseball season and it's an outdoor stadium.
00:30:59
Speaker
That's Tropicana Field, right? Yeah. Now, they have they have talked about building a new stadium... But like with this new one for the Browns is going that they're building
00:31:13
Speaker
X I can't remember how I think it's 19 million or something like that is being funded by taxes like your hotel charge and that's where people florida are like fuck that we're paying no goddamn taxes for stadiums But Yeah, so I think I think I could be wrong. I think it's like 19 million This is what they want the taxpayers to play, but this is a multi-billion dollar dome that they're building for the Browns, which blows my mind because the team has been absolute dog shit ever.
00:31:52
Speaker
True story. You guys can't get... It's crazy because my brother is a big Reds fan, my brother-in-law. my reds and you can't get can't get those two teams on the same page at the same time.
00:32:04
Speaker
But that goes the same for for Buffalo sports. You can't get the Sabres and the Bills on the same page at the same time. Yeah.
00:32:12
Speaker
But the one team that is always dominant in in Buffalo, New York, the fucking Bandits and lacrosse. Taking ass and taking names. Geez.
00:32:24
Speaker
Now, you know, I would...
00:32:29
Speaker
The city of Cleveland needs to get their acts together in sports. The the indians the Indians have been pretty good for a while. The Cavs kind of Although the Cavs did just pick up... ah ah Which was kind of a big deal.
00:32:44
Speaker
um James Harden, I think? I think that's what... Yeah, I think I saw that.
00:32:55
Speaker
Yeah, because he had his debut last night in the win over Sacramento. 23 points, 7 of 13. Field goal, 5 8 on 3-point shots.
00:33:08
Speaker
And 4 for 4 on the free throw line. Yeah, he had ah he had a pretty decent game. A couple rebounds, couple assists, a couple steals.
00:33:25
Speaker
Cleveland seems to be. they kind of They kind of started the season out a little sluggish. Well, that's a lot of teams. But now they're they're coming back around there in second place in the Central. Unfortunately, ah unfortunately, the East is going through Detroit this season.
00:33:44
Speaker
Oh, Lindsey Vonn's out. She has a leg injury now. Yeah, see, that's a... I don't know what's going on with her. She's out. She's in. She's not in. She's injured. She's crashed. She's I don't know what's going on. i can't um Also in the NFL news, the Dolphins and the Cardinals are both looking to trade Tua and Kyler.
00:34:05
Speaker
Wait, what? The Dolphins are looking to trade Tua, and the Cards are looking to trade Kyler Murray. Are they trading Kyler Murray to a Call of Duty team?
00:34:19
Speaker
He might win. Maybe. Maybe. Both teams would like to find trade partners for their starting quarterbacks.
00:34:29
Speaker
Okay, here we go. The Cleveland Browns Dome Stadium in Brook Park is projected to cost $2.4 billion. The project is slated to open in 2029. It features a 50-50 public-private partnership with $1.2 billion from the Haslam Sports Group and $1.2 billion from public sources, including 600 million in Ohio State funds. So I was way off on my numbers, but nonetheless, million from local and county sources.
00:35:10
Speaker
This dome is going to be sick, dude. You better hope so. I can't wait. I don't know what it's like up in Buffalo, but I'm sure it's cold as balls from looking at it on TV in the wintertime.
00:35:21
Speaker
But in early season, when you're inside in the Browns current stadium where it sits on the lake, the inside of the stadium is like 20 to 30 degrees cooler than thirty degrees cooler when that wind comes up off the It's amazing during spring games, isn't it? Yeah. During preseason games, I should say. When you get into the late seasons, whoo, buddy, it gets cold up there in Cleveland Browns Stadium. Let me tell you. That wind comes, and it's open on the end.
00:35:51
Speaker
where Lake Erie is, so it comes in off of Lake Erie and it just swirls around that stadium, buddy. It gets cold. So the Bills' new stadium is going to be similar to Miami Stadium, where it's covered a portion of the way all the way around, and there's a big hole in the middle.
00:36:08
Speaker
Damn. Nice. Damn Yankees, they're just giving it away. Chuck, you you youre all are going to play. Cowboys, Yankees.
00:36:23
Speaker
Rick, let me ask you something with the Olympics. Yes, sir. This is, not this is ah oh, yeah, undergoes procedure to stabilize fracture in her leg after eating a big bag of shit. Pretty much.
00:36:35
Speaker
um this is This is somewhat. Oh, we finally won a gold. oop Yeah, we got one. Yeah. Some are somewhat Olympic related, but it's, it's hockey.
00:36:49
Speaker
Your Buffalo Sabres, as well as my Columbus blue jackets are currently kicking ass are on a fucking hot streak. and And I'll say again, shout out to my jackets and our new head coach.
00:37:02
Speaker
They've been on a winning streak since, uh, since he came on board, you guys are seven in a row. However, I'm looking at it right now. However, we have dropped the last two.
00:37:16
Speaker
Yeah, you guys, which is nice because we're trying to climb back up into that wild card spot. But in our defense, the two we lost, the Penguins and the Lightning.
00:37:27
Speaker
Yeah. I mean, if you look at that, Tampa's number one in the Atlantic Division. Pittsburgh's number two in the Metro Division. Yeah. And the last 12 games, the Blue Jackets have only lost one.
00:37:43
Speaker
and they are us You are one game. No, you are four four points out of the wild card spot right now behind Boston. Yeah.
00:37:54
Speaker
You guys need two dubs, and Boston needs to lose, too, in regulation. and regulation So with this, and and Tampa's on a hot streak, Buffalo is, Columbus is the Penguins are doing what the Penguins do.
00:38:07
Speaker
Do you think this, what is two-week break in action?
00:38:13
Speaker
It usually fucks Buffalo up really bad. as was going to say, do you think it's going to fuck up the momentum that these teams have? It usually does. it usually Well, not for Buffalo this time because going into it two losses.
00:38:23
Speaker
So it could be a chance to rebuild and and recap. But generally speaking, the Olympic break or the All-Star break, either one tends to fuck Buffalo over really bad.
00:38:38
Speaker
i was I was thinking about that the other day. i was like, oh, man. The
NHL and Olympic Break Effects
00:38:41
Speaker
jackets are on a hot... you know they're They're on fire right now. And now you're going to two weeks off. And now you're going to pull the plug for the stupid Olympics. And it's like, God damn it. For your players to go play for their home countries and risk injury.
00:38:58
Speaker
Exactly. It is quite frustrating. Especially if it comes down to like Canada versus USA. Because we know how that went with the Four Nations tournament. Yeah.
00:39:10
Speaker
That was a little bit sketchy right there, bud. little bit. Did you see the absolute fucking melee at the Tampa game the other night? Everybody was fighting on the ice. I was going to ask you, did you see the stadium series game, Tampa-Boston? The only ones that didn't throw hands were the goalies. Oh, did they come out and do it?
00:39:30
Speaker
Oh, I thought that was a different game. Vazzy came out and threw hands with the other goalie, I guess. I love goalie fights. They're the fucking best. Like, how bad does a fight have to be where the goalie's like, you know what? Fuck it. I'm in. Let's go. Typically, it doesn't have to be bad at all. They just get tired of sitting in the net watching everything.
00:39:52
Speaker
yeah they always They always make me think of the girl from Willy Wonka that ate the blueberry and turned into a new giant blueberry. That's what it's like watching goalies fight in the middle of the ice. And they always go center ice. They never skate to each other's end. They meet dead ass in the middle and throw down.
00:40:09
Speaker
And I love it. Goalie fights are the best. Yep. I guess Vazzy came out from the net and was throwing haymakers, buddy. I was like, all right. That was a wild game because after that fight, because Tampa was down 5-1.
00:40:23
Speaker
yep After that fight, Tampa came back and put it on them and won 6-5. That's wild. That's almost underperformed. That's called a momentum shift. Yeah, but that's almost unheard of in hockey when you're down by four goals to turn around and put five unanswered goals on the board.
00:40:40
Speaker
But it is Tampa, and Tampa is a nasty hockey team. Yep, they are. fuck They have been for the last 10 years. Yeah.
Florida's Unexpected Hockey Success
00:40:47
Speaker
Hockey won't work in Florida. Go talk to your Tampa Bay Lightning and Florida Panthers. I was going to say, talk to either of the two teams down there that are fucking sitting atop their divisions. Yeah, that are winning Stanley Cups. Like they're giving them away at the thrift shop. Yeah.
00:41:03
Speaker
Suck it. covered up Florida cotton does hockey better than you fuckers.
00:41:12
Speaker
poor canada there was a lot of years where we didn't though yeah and what's great is both those teams have a lot of american players too which is even better o it's not like they're inundated with canadians and russians and checks there are a lot of american players on that team yeah um
00:41:36
Speaker
A lot of hometown guys. and Columbus has a lot of guys that are not necessarily hometown Ohio, but like local to the Midwest. Is that where you consider Ohio is Midwest? Yeah, Ohio is Midwest.
00:41:50
Speaker
it's It's always been considered the Midwest. See, i don't i don't think so. with why would what do you What do you consider Ohio? Just consider Ohio, Ohio. I don't consider the Midwest. I don't think you hit the Midwest to until you get to Indiana.
00:42:04
Speaker
Well, this is true. I mean, it is just Ohio. We're we're we're we're the Florida of the north, or Florida is the Ohio of the south. One of the two. we you know Minus the nice weather in Ohio. yeah we have the Yeah, but when it gets cold, we send all the all the lunatics and crazy people to Florida, and then when it gets warm, they come back. so This is true. We're basically the same state.
00:42:25
Speaker
you know just I think you guys like the
00:42:30
Speaker
guess We do the middle east
00:42:36
Speaker
we i mean you're the east side of the middle of the country, but I don't think you start the Midwest until Indiana. that's just me Yeah, i don't know we've always i don't know I've always grown up with it being called the Midwest or whatever. But, um yeah, we, matter labaian us in us ah us in Florida, one in the same, used to be married, went through an ugly divorce. Now we have shared custody of our our idiot children, and we, you know, they get in Tennessee, by the way. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, no, might be just Kentucky, West Virginia. I don't know that I want to lump Tennessee into that.
00:43:09
Speaker
Eh, might as well. some Some parts of Tennessee are, yeah, there's some sketchy-ass parts of Tennessee. But there's also some sketchy-ass parts of southern Ohio that are 100% Kentucky and or West Virginia.
00:43:23
Speaker
I mean, if you get east of Cincinnati, it gets a little dicey over there. Those are like the inbred outlying Appalachian people of Tennessee, Kentucky, and West Virginia.
00:43:34
Speaker
Those are the ones that got shunned away from Appalachia. Yeah. They're like, yeah, you can live like you're feral, but you got to stay in southeast Ohio. Pretty much. Yeah, it gets it gets a little questionable when you get down into Southern Ohio. thing that hold This whole conversation is so messed up.
00:43:59
Speaker
We need to leave Matthew and Anthony alone. yeah It's not their fault they can't read. Oh, my God.
00:44:10
Speaker
You know, it's an unfortunate thing. The worst part is one of the worst counties in the whole state has my last name.
00:44:20
Speaker
Butler County, Ohio. Definitely a little bit sketch. ah A little bit. Just just just ah just a scotch. And it's crazy because it's not even the new Miami part. It's the Hamilton. That's the worst part.
00:44:32
Speaker
We're moving on now. Yeah. Come on. yeah oh oh So I'm hoping, so there a lot of people are saying low score for tonight.
00:44:43
Speaker
I disagree. what's see What's the over-under on that Do you know? Actually, I can look. Let me take me a look-see here there, bud. let's ah let's see what the Let's see what the experts say, because we are not experts.
00:44:57
Speaker
No, we're just some dumbasses. The over-under is 45 and a half. The spread is Seattle by four and a half. Yeah, I knew Seattle had four. Seattle's giving up four and a half.
00:45:10
Speaker
Good. 63% of the country ah has Seattle winning or has picked Seattle to win. See, I've got the matchup predictor at 59.4% Seattle. Yeah, I'm looking at it here on Yahoo. Yahoo. Even up in the New England states, it's 51-49 Seattle.
00:45:33
Speaker
That's because the only people that like the Patriots are those from Boston and Massachusetts area. yeah Nobody else gives a flying fuck about them because they've got the Jets, the Giants, fucking all that up there.
00:45:45
Speaker
Yeah, 45.5 points is the over-under. I mean, if you look at the statistic numbers, the only number that Seattle is not leading in is sacks and passing yards.
00:46:01
Speaker
Drake May has 40, almost 4,400 Darnold has 4,000. They Darnold 25 touchdowns May 31. four thousand oh they darrnold twenty five touchdowns may thirty one um eight interceptions from A14 for Darnold. You look at the rushing yards, Kenneth Walker's got 1,027. Henderson's only got 911. Receiving yards, JSN's got almost 1,800 yards. Diggs' 1,013.
00:46:28
Speaker
to digs is thousand thirteen o And then the two guys with the most sacks and tackles on New England, which is Landry III has eight and a half sacks is questionable. And Robert Spillane with 97 tackles is questionable.
00:46:48
Speaker
I think I would go with it. Both teams are averaging 28 points a game. I think I would take the over on that. Yeah, I told i told my my cousin to take the over on that. Yeah.
00:47:00
Speaker
and So there's no way I would take the under on 45.
00:47:06
Speaker
Bets on money line, 70% are going Seattle. Bet on the spread, 56% Seattle. Bet on total points, 68% leaning towards Seattle.
00:47:17
Speaker
I don't understand any of these numbers. but What do you mean? first First half, well, like the money lines, the spread, the total. The money line is...
00:47:36
Speaker
Like the Patriots, plus 154, you bet 100 to win 154. Oh, Jesus. Yeah, they've got the they've got the first half over ah ah are over under at 22.5 points. Yeah, I see that. Yeah, man, I think. And that's the total between both scores, right?
00:47:55
Speaker
alllthough Yeah, over under, yeah. They got the third quarter alone at 9.5. Seacocks. Pretty fucking much. Yeah.
00:48:05
Speaker
i think I think I might, yeah, I think I'm going to, I can remember, i think I'm going to a couple bets in. i'll probably bet the overruns. You know what's fucking crazy? Here's this. Average total points for the last five games for Seattle in the total score, 45.5, 44.5, 48.5, 42.5, 42.5.
00:48:17
Speaker
you Ready? Average total like, total points in game for England, 43.5, 40.5, 45.5, 43.5, 42.5.
00:48:23
Speaker
ready average total over over like total points in the game for new england forty three and a half forty and a half forty five and a half forty three and a half forty two and a half Both of them have been involved in 40 to 45 and a half point games.
00:48:37
Speaker
Yeah. I mean, both of them have good defenses. I will tell you right now, Charbonnet being out is big news for Seattle m with a torn ACL. Yeah. Both of them have good defenses.
00:48:55
Speaker
Yes. But both of them also have, and and I'll say this for New England, not so much Seattle. surprisingly good offenses.
00:49:07
Speaker
Yep. Both of them have game wrecker ah receivers on their team. yeah like If Steph Diggs has a ball out game, he'll ruin a fucking game for of the other team.
00:49:21
Speaker
But if JSN is there, he will destroy a game for the other team for for that too. So both them have, then they both got great running backs.
00:49:32
Speaker
Kenneth Walker and Ramondre Stevenson. oh Well, New England has two running backs that can be equally devastating. Yeah, they got Henderson and Henderson. Yeah. You know, Seattle has Kenneth Walker because Charbonnet got hurt.
00:49:48
Speaker
So they're going to rely heavily, I think, on Walker.
00:49:54
Speaker
But because he is their current, for all intents and purposes, he's their current Marshawn Lynch. Mm-hmm. Let's see if, ah is it does gold is Golden still on with the sea chickens?
00:50:08
Speaker
Who? Didn't Matthew Golden play for them?
00:50:13
Speaker
i don't know. So, it should be quite the game tonight, to be honest with you. I am, I don't know. Rick rick is very excited for the Bad Bunny halftime show.
00:50:28
Speaker
i've already got my I've already got my dress picked out. I'm on another channel watching but not why ah i'm sending Glick a long set of Snapchats of me and my dress for you to watch.
00:50:40
Speaker
hilly said We are not watching that. We are watching the other one. The real American halftime with Kid Rock. that Most people... middle into that yeah yeah A lot of people have pulled out of that halftime show funny enough.
00:50:54
Speaker
Yeah. The flack they were catching. ah What is that? The Truth Halftime Show. Seven Dust pulled out. Or Shinedown pulled out of it. Yeah, Shinedown pulled out.
00:51:09
Speaker
I don't disagree with their... It's not because they're picking a side. It's because they refuse to be a part of the further division in the country. yeah can't I'm not upset with their reasoning for it.
00:51:24
Speaker
I saw them in concert. That was his first ever concert with Shinedown. He got out of it. He melted my face. Melted my face, Dad. Shine down will melt your face, bro. Yeah.
00:51:37
Speaker
Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Bryce, and Gabby Barrett. yeah I don't know Gabby Barrett is. I don't know. not yeah I don't know, but I mean... I just want Kid Rock to do Ball with the Ball and I'm a Cowboy, baby. I bet you he doesn't play either of those songs. I know he won't. He's going to push out some new shit that nobody cares about. He's going to play some American shit. Some all about America shit. And Brantley Gilbert's going to do the exact same.
00:52:03
Speaker
i Lee Bryce, I don't know what the fuck he's going to play. Yeah. He has a cracked up song that makes me laugh. Um... About girls taking their tops off at beaches.
00:52:17
Speaker
ah About little bitty teeny tiny bikinis. And for the life of me, I cannot remember the name of the song right now. 2026 Turning Point USA All-American Halftime Show featuring Kid Rock, Brantley Govert, Lee Bryce, Gabby Barrett streams live February 8th around. So now they're stealing my shit.

00:52:57
Speaker
Because we have any of those. You can go to YouTube and watch it. That's what we do on.
00:53:06
Speaker
Now she's just getting a little bossy. yeah i do You know what I might do? I might jump on and play a match of Warzone during the halftime show. I mean, i'm not i'm not mad at it. I like some of Bad Bunny's music, but I would prefer his halftime show, him wrestling
Bad Bunny's Wrestling Crossover
00:53:22
Speaker
because I will be totally honest with you. I have never listened to a single fucking movie. I've heard a couple of his songs, but I heard a couple of his songs but what I know him most for was when he he had a few matches in WWE. Didn't he get fucked up?
00:53:38
Speaker
and he No, he was actually surprisingly not bad in the ring. He had a... He wasn't no I Show Speed, though. Oh, dude, I Show Got absolutely fucking destroyed.

Yep, I remember that. who was it and there was Who was it that was fighting... the The Paul brother when he was dressed up as the walking bottle of Prime and got fucking devastated. ah Oh, God, who was that?
00:54:11
Speaker
He got fucking like, he got put through the announcer's table. I think it was Randy Orton. because anybody He fucking just devastated him. yeah Randy Orton has jacked up iShowSpeed and who's that guy? KSI, KS1? Yeah, KSI.
00:54:28
Speaker
Yeah, he's he's wrecked him as well. Randy Orton is like awesome. He's my current old man favorite in WWE. wwe because right I mean, for all intents and purposes, Randy Orton is a veteran in the WWE. He's 40 years old or more. Yeah. so But he's still fucking doing it.
00:54:49
Speaker
Like routinely doing it. He's still in great shape. I was fucking with Wyatt the other day. he's like He's like, there's some guy that has the catchiest like theme song in wwe wwe and i was like oh yeah who is that he goes and and i i knew who he was talking about so i readied it up on my phone and i had the picture in the text message waiting he goes yeah but some guy like joe hendry so i quick hit set right right dude right on the picture it says say his name and he appears and then he's got picture joe hendry like in mid clap and why it's like i hate you

He is literally one of the funniest, like, mashups that they can do in in wrestling right now because he comes out of literally trash cans, air vents, like everything. So I sent him this mashup. i was like, this is why he's so funny to me and why I enjoy him.
00:55:50

He did when he showed up on WrestleMania that year and got his WrestleMania moment. Against Randy Orton, wasn't it?
00:56:41
Speaker
Yeah, Randy Orton. He, he, at that time he was a D T and a heavyweight champion, but now he's officially signed by WWE. He's an NXT and Tuesday night he won the NXT championship. I really hope that he's, I really hope that he's a guy they put over.
00:56:57
Speaker
I think they will because he's got such a, he, he's, but it don't matter what arena he shows up in. He can be backstage. He gets a pop. He is a fan favorite.
00:57:08
Speaker
Uh, I, yeah. Oh yeah. And, uh, it he's not the He's a pretty guy, but he's not like like everybody, all the girls swooned over Randy Orton when he first came in or swooned over John Cena. He's not that guy.
00:57:23
Speaker
No. He's a sharp-looking dude. He seems like he's just always going to be on the good guy side of things. I could never see him being a heel. Yeah. He just doesn't have that persona about him or that look.
00:57:33
Speaker
Yeah, he is incredibly talented in the ring. He's yeah like what little bit I've seen about him. And then he's got that other girl, Thea. Yeah. pay policy She just those two together just crack me up.
00:57:48
Speaker
They're great. they're They both have that perfect look to fit that type of a fucking gimmick. Yep. She reminds me of a pre psychopathic Molly Holly.
00:58:02
Speaker
Before Molly Ali turned into a lunatic and was like angry at everybody. which they were all files Yeah. When she's got all smiles and be bopping and everything. That's who that Theo girl reminds me of as a psychopathic Molly Ali.
00:58:14
Speaker
Or even like a, like a fucking less emo AJ Lee. Yeah. A little bit less emo personality wise. Yeah.
00:58:26
Speaker

00:59:03
Speaker
ah Michigan is like number two or number three.
Ohio State vs Michigan Basketball Update
00:59:07
Speaker
Is Ohio State ranked yet? Probably not. i know they're there I know they're struggling this year. you Usually they're a really good team. They're usually in the top ten all season.
00:59:18
Speaker
Michigan, yeah. Michigan is currently ranked number two with a 21 and 21 and one overall record.
00:59:30
Speaker
And Ohio State is not ranked at all.
00:59:37
Speaker
They are bottom feeding in the Big Ten, basically. Not all the way. Not midway. They're 15 and seven overall.
00:59:48
Speaker
They're not even ranked, though. Michigan's two. Illinois's is five. Nebraska's nine. Michigan State's ten. And Purdue is twelfth. Okay. So Ohio State's got to step it up to keep the Big Ten super relevant.
01:00:01
Speaker
So... Oregon sucks in basketball, apparently. Yep. They are one and eleven in the conference. And eight and fifteen overall.
01:00:13
Speaker
So... All right, Francis. I got some shit I got to do. Yep. We got some shit we're going to do. Get out of the house for a little bit. Go wander around aimlessly.
01:00:26
Speaker
I'm going to go with the go sea chickens for tonight. Let's hope they beat the Pats. I'd like to see Sam fucking Darnold get a Super Bowl win. That'd be awesome. yeah i Yeah. I was going to say, I don't know if I'm rooting for the Seahawks to win or more if I'm just rooting for... I'm really hoping for just a really good game ultimately.
01:00:48
Speaker
So are you putting our pick down as me having the sea chickens? I think I did that already. I want to double check. Yeah, I do. So in the playoffs, we are either going to 7-6 or 6-7 in our picks. 6-7! So we're not in.
01:01:03
Speaker
we are either going to go seven and six or six and seven in our pigs and six hundred
