 Guys, what's up on Sports and Light Conduct here? We're kind of sick. We've had better days. We're not doing well right now. Let's just put it that way. We're going to talk some football with you guys. I think this is one of the funniest weeks that there's been a while. And Bre, it might come at your expense. I'm really sorry for that. It does. You just know, I've seen the worst of the worst my entire life. And I could put that up there with one of them. Now, I do feel bad. I do feel bad for Mr. Jacoby. You were there. You were in attendance. Yeah. Not to be dramatic, but when I tell you, I came really close to jumping off the balcony. Like I thought about it. I really did. I can't even. Like that's Cleveland Brown's level disaster. And I'm not trying to make it worse than what it already is. You're so right, though. But like that is something that, if the Cleveland Browns did that, I would say, yeah, that's just another freaking day. But I like, oh, my God. I that whole last like five minutes of the game is just I don't understand because it starts off where they're they have the Raiders fourth and 10. Yeah, you haven't been able to let them do just about anything up to that point from the start of the second half to then. And fourth and 10, you're sitting there thinking, all right, we're in a good spot. They're going for it. So they're in like desperation mode right now. Completion of Mack Hollins and it gets them down the field. And then after that, I mean, I don't understand how that was called a touch. I really don't. If my blind ass could see a toe on the line from all the way up where I was, like, I just don't understand how I'm going to be honest. You guys have been getting a little bit. My God, that's like that's like the nicest way to put it. And I know people say for like, I know you probably get this because you guys have won a lot of times is one of the years and I get why other fans are saying it because, you know, Patriots are winners. And they said, well, now I'm finally getting the calls up. You know what I'm talking about. Like, I just and I think the worst part about it and not to like harp on that alone, because like, yeah, that was a big factor, but they there was still. What three? No, like a minute and a half left me, but still, regardless, not the point. But like, I saw this tweet that really made me a million times more mad about this situation than I already was just just talking about the catch. I'll get into the second. It said that had this game not been flexed out of Sunday night football, there would have been pile on camps because Sunday night football, NBC has pile on camps. And that would have basically been all of the evidence you needed to see because apparently they couldn't see anyway, I just, which I still don't understand. But that would have been more than enough to see that Keelan Cole's toe was on the line. I mean, it was all the still photos that are going around like you can still you can see it. I don't I don't understand. I mean, it's just been it's been one thing after another. Like it's just one thing after another. So I will say I do know I feel bad for in this situation the most. Mac Jones, he did not deserve that stiff arm. He could have been in the end zone without the stiff arm. But that honestly, though, like I as somebody who I mean, we all know this, I'm not big on Mac Jones, never have been, never pretended to be. All of this, like Jacoby Meyers, he needs to buy him like the biggest Christmas present most expensive because it ever because he is Rolex in his luck. He is taking so much heat off of Mac Jones for having a God awful game. Terrible. His total air yards per for all of his completions in that game, which weren't a lot, 57. That's sickening. That's horrible. And I know that's why the stiff arm, though, is still like he didn't need to. He didn't need. And the fact that it was Chandler Jones, too. Like, of course, it's going to be somebody that's going to bite the Patriots right in the ass for. Like history. It was awesome. I will say I'm not going to lie. It was awesome. It was an awesome event. I've never seen anything like that. I because I tweeted, I said, what's the worst sports play of all time? Because it felt like a good moment to ask people. Oh, yeah, great. There were a lot of funny ones. One of my favorite replies was. The Cleveland Browns called a timeout before the first play even happened. Hmm. I mean, the play didn't even happen. And that's like pathetic. You have all weeks of prep and you're going to call timeout. All the first play. Yep, that's a good one. Oh, it's bad. I the one with Baker Mayfield against the Patriots. Did you see that video? He did a little pass. Try to go like this. The Nick Chubb. Oh, yes, I remember. Line. I remember that. Yeah, I mean, there's been some pretty bad plays with that one. And you had to watch in person. That's that's the thing. Like I would you guys do? Just stand there. I saw Ramon Dre run. And I'm thinking to myself, maybe just get down. Like he's just going to go out of bounds. The game's going to go into overtime. Like, I feel like everybody, every single person in that stadium figured this was going into overtime at that point. But it went to the end and then. And then I see the ball pop up behind him. And I said, oh, fuck. And then from there on out. That was scary, but it wasn't that bad. And then it just got way worse. From there on out, it was kind of a blur. And then I just remember seeing Chandler Jones just shove Mack Jones into the depths of hell and run directly at where we were sitting. And I was sitting there like this. Mouth was wide open. Like I had no words. We were. I'm sure there were a lot of Patriots fans there. Oh my God. You guys do on the way up. That people were cussing up a storm. Honestly, I'll give Raiders fans a shit ton of credit. They were awesome because they couldn't believe what happened either. Any of it. Oh, I don't think anyone would. Somebody came up to my dad and gave him a hug and was like, I am so sorry. I have no idea how that happened. At least you got to go to Vegas. Yeah, my body is kind of wishing I didn't though. Like, that's where like my sickness is still coming from. I've been sick for like since the beginning of December and I feel fine after like three or four days. And then I go to an event and I do something because I feel like I'm fine. Next day, sick for five more. Start the cycle back over again. It just happened to me on Saturday. I didn't even stay that game for more than. It's not colder either. No. Yeah. It's like cold. That's a cool way. I went to the Browns Ravens game. We didn't even stay till half time we left to get tacos. There we are. It was cold and disgusting and I just had to make a few videos and I didn't want to be out there any longer. Yeah. And that was enough to put me under for four days. Yeah. I don't blame you for leaving though. It was terrible game. It was a terrible game. It was a terrible game. I didn't know Vegas got below like 50 degrees. It was freezing. Yeah. It was a terrible, terrible game. If we're going to talk about being cold, this week there's like seven games where it's going to be below freezing. The whole thing's going to be below. And this is where my argument comes into four. If you are in a place where it snows, build a fucking dome. Get a dome. At least like a retractable one. Something. Where like. You had the Bill's fans throwing snowballs at the dolphins. I'm sorry. That was awesome. It's, I honestly thought it was hysterical because you had the dolphins receivers like trying to dodge the snowballs as they were trying to catch touchdown passes and chip. But like also why? Like, I saw a lot of people on Twitter getting pretty worked up about this, about the fact that Bill's fans were throwing snowballs and saying. Better than dildos, clearly. I was literally just about to say these are the champions that throw dildos. You have, if you have any expectations for them, like you need to recheck because. The only person to throw. Cameraman. Cameraman and the guy. Oh my God, a good smoke. Oh my God. Cameraman. Everybody else don't really care. He got smoked right in the back. That had to hurt so bad. Ugh. Yeah. It was awesome. It was crazy. Like at the end of the game, like fourth quarter snow, it came down so fast. Yeah. And then they brushed the field off for field goal. I saw a lot of people complaining. They're like, how come the Bears tried to do that and they got a flag? Well, because they brought a towel onto the field. Yeah, they used. That's the difference. So. Why? I don't know. I don't know. But our Lions did it this week. If nothing else, the Detroit Lions saved my bacon. I love the Detroit Lions more than anything. That little team, I'm really proud of them. If there's anybody that does a good team, it's Detroit. They might sneak into the playoffs. Cause you probably. I'm rooting for them. Right now it's like plus 150. Really? Lions to make playoffs. Yeah. They could do it. They really could do it. They could totally do it. You know, it's really, really, really, really bad for everybody involved. The Cleveland Browns could make the playoffs. Yeah. Right, because the Ravens losing all their players lost their quarterback. They could lose out in the Browns win and they go in. I don't think that would ever happen, but it's not at 0%, like it's not a 0% chance. At the rate that the AFC is going right now, like it wouldn't surprise me if the Browns and the Jaguars snuck in. Well, it would have to be the Chargers or the Ravens losing out and the Browns winning out, which are probably not likely for either team. But again, still could happen, which is insane. Which is really insane. I think I'm at the point. I think after that shit on Sunday, all of my playoff hopes have gone out the window. I think I'm accepting the fact that this team truly is not very good and I was kind of just hoping that they would prove me right in putting my blind faith into them. I think I'm at the point where I have accepted the fact that they are not good. They are not a playoff team. And if they, for whatever reason, made that seven seed, they would get the shit kicked out of them by Kansas City. So if we want to talk about Kansas City, I know a lot of people are saying, oh, they were close with the Texans. That's embarrassing. They've been playing decent football. If the Texans have been playing okay football. Yeah, I mean, but also like it's, and I think people kind of forget this. Like it's an any given Sunday kind of thing. Like it truly is. It's the answer. Every team should be good. Every team should one win. Every team should, yeah. Yeah, just because like the team fricking sucks doesn't mean that they're not gonna put out their best effort and maybe get lucky one week of the year. And they came really close to doing that against Dallas, who a little suspect right now. Yeah, they're making me question what's going on. Man. Which they could gain some confidence back. They could gain some confidence back this week if Jalen Hurts isn't playing, but I would love to see Gardner, when she just pair them to bits. Yeah, well, I'm a little, go ball check with no Brady first career. Like, yes, we know, we know, please. Look at Brady right now. Okay, I have something to, I'm ready to beat that Jerry. Go ahead, because I have a lot to say about this too. So. Because I told you last week, I sat here and I said, I think that they can beat the Bengals. I don't think their offense is as good as we think that they are. Their defense is carrying their team. Tom Brady's up 17 to fucking three. And you blow it. You have fumble two times. You have two interceptions and you let the Bengals score. Everyone's like, oh, Joe Burrow beat the Bucks. He had a great week. Look at all the points he scored. Yeah, I'm sure your quarterback can score two when they're given the ball in the red zone. Right. Four times. I don't know if that's where it was. He was given the ball four times. But also at the same time, probably not because the Bucks red zone offense has been one of the worst. So like. Like come on, man. You had the game right there. It's just really, I'm almost glad I watched the loss that I watched instead of watching that because I think that would have pissed me off even more. Like I was watching, I was watching. The Pats made me really fucking angry. But like, I mean, it was a fluke thing. It was a second away from overtime. This, this, the Bucks just choked. And Brady specifically, like you just. Well, yeah, it was a Brady. It was a Brady choke job. He literally gave them the game. He was on pace to win. They were doing well. I was really rooting hard for him. And he let me down and I'm done. I'm done with him. Everyone's gonna play football again. That was a dream. I'm really, I'm really interested to see what this off season has in store because he has always said, I'll retire when I suck. Well, you suck. Maybe it's not, maybe the time is now. There's been lashes. He just should have, he should have just stayed retired. He should have won actually, he should have won that Super Bowl and said, you know what, this has been really damn fun. Exactly. That last Super Bowl should have been a ride out into the sunset thing. Go out on top and less, and you know this as much as anybody. Tom Brady is my guy. I would never talk shit about him ever, but like it's come to the point where like the bad significantly outweighs the good. It's like when, oh my God. See, this is gonna be such a bad comparison. People are gonna be mad at me for this. But it's just like, you know, when people are like so old and they shouldn't have a driver's license. Take the keys, he needs to go. Take the keys away. I don't disagree. I mean, I feel like a lot of it has to do, yes, with the fact that the offensive line has been decimated pretty much all year. The coaching is stupid. It's just like a mosh pit of really, really bad things, but Brady is pretty close to the top for the reason why. You have players coming up to you after they intercepted you, asking for autographs. Go home. At that point, like, just go home. I would be, the fact that he's actually signing these balls, like I know he's a really gracious guy and he... Right, he's really generous for that one. Super appreciative of like the younger kids that he's not playing against doing stuff like that because it makes him feel good about, you know, the impact he's had on the game and stuff. But if I was him, I'd be like, fuck now. You just picked me off. I lost another game. Get out of my face. Like, that's so disrespectful. Well, I don't think I could do that, you know? I just would just... Yeah, I don't know. So like more power to him for actually signing the footballs and stuff and being a good guy. But like, man, I couldn't. I don't think I could do that. I don't know, man. Making all the bangles, though. I tweeted today. Fuck Mary Kill. The bills, bangles and sheeps. And I think I know what your answer is gonna be. But okay, so who are you gonna... Who are you gonna... We'll do fuck first, which team are you fucking? I'm going sheeps. Yeah, I think the chiefs. I was like, you know, probably... I feel like I'd be a one-time thing, right? Yeah, I'm going sheeps and I like Patrick Mahomes. Don't really want any involvement with Jackson around. But great quarterback, Travis Kelce. Yeah, I'm chiefs. Yeah, whatever. I mean, I guess this is one of those things where like definitely not my top choice, but like you have to do it, you might as well. Okay, and now this is where we're gonna go opposite ways. Yeah. Right, so I am going to kill the bangles. Yeah, I'm gonna marry the bangles. I feel like they're dead to me. Everything about them pisses me off. I'm gonna marry Joe Burrow and the bangles. We're gonna have a nice, fun marriage. You know, he can borrow my sunglasses. I can borrow these. You're an Eli Apple. Yeah, he can be like our weird neighbor that like comes over for holidays and stuff. Yeah, and then I'm killing the bills. Killing them, viciously. And I'm gonna say, Buffalo, love you guys. Thank you for everything that you've done for me. I am gonna go eat some wings with you. And maybe you'll see a Superbowl. I don't know, probably not. Probably fucking lose again. Probably not, probably lose again. I'm going to, I'm gonna go bison hunting with like a old school bow and arrow and everything. Like if I'm gonna do it, I'm gonna do it legit. And I'm going to kill the bills. Yeah, see that's me. Me with the bangles. And the bangles pissed me off more than any other team I've seen before. Rooting for their downfall more than any. Listen, sister, join, come on the bandwagon this week. It's definitely not gonna happen. But if we use all this before we can get it at this point. I would love it. I want them to not get the number one. Don't let them. This is how I feel about this. The Patriots are gonna lose the way they did this past week in arguably the most heartbreaking fashion possible. And then for whatever reason, I just feel like they're gonna go out and like they're actually gonna play with the bangles. Like they're actually playing. No, I think that they are too. See, I thought the bucks were playing with them. They were. And Tom Brady said, I'm tired. I can't do it right now. I'm gonna end the game quicker than. So I mean, Matt Jones and Tom Brady right now are kind of playing at the same level. So if that can happen, like I feel for whatever reason, which is so stupid because I watched with my own eyes what happened this past Sunday. And yet I still feel like that. Like I don't know if it's just because I'm sick and all the medicine I've been taking, it's making me a little wonky in the head. But like I, that's how I feel. And it's really weird. It's really weird. And I'm very prepared to be let down again. Right, but I'm rooting for you and I'm rooting for everything to go well. That game. Maybe Matt Judan will show up on the stat sheet this week. That'd be cool. I mean, Joe Burrow loves to get sacked a few times. Yeah, I know. Judan decides to like maybe disappear a little bit in semi-big games. Well, we'll see. A little interesting. We will see. Should I tell my super funny story of my week? Yeah, please. Oh my God. Please do, I want to hear it again. Okay guys, so I'm going to need this one clip because I want to post on Twitter. I feel like I shouldn't say who it was. I'm going to retract the name. Yeah. Yeah. We're going to retract the name, but I went to the Cleveland Browns football game against the Ravens. He left at halftime. We're hungry. We're going to get some taco. We're going to get the tacos. After the tacos, there's a birthday party. One of the guys on the Browns it was his birthday this weekend. Having a birthday party. We're walking from the stadium to the tacos to the birthday party. In between, there's a massive parking lot in between the places that we're walking from. And my friend goes, look at those two guys over there. They're pretty attractive. At this point, we're like a couple of margaritas deep because it's snowing. We are, we are not okay. So we're looking- Always those damn margaritas. Did you go to that place that you took me to? Yes. Yeah. We went to do that thing. We had the shots and everything. It's a dangerous place. It's a dangerous place. They've very dangerous place to go to because everything's good and everything's free. So we're walking to the, we're walking to the party across the parking lot. There's two tall men in white hoodies. And we can't see who they are because they're super far away, but we can see that they're tall. And my friend goes, those guys look kind of attractive. I'm like, you want me to yell at them again? Not sober. She's like, yeah. Give them a little shout. Like just wave at them and see what happens. I'm like, men in the white hoodies, men in the white hoodies, we start waving. And then my friend goes, you guys are very attractive. So then we walk into the birthday party. We're standing at the bar. 10 minutes later, the two men in the white hoodies walk in. One of them plays on the Cleveland Browns football team. He's a fan favorite. A lot of people love him. He comes up to us and he goes, we see him in the fucking hoodie. And he goes, why the fuck were you guys screaming at me? And I go, I didn't know it was you. He goes, I literally know you guys. I don't know what they're like, well, we didn't know it was you at the time. He goes, well, I appreciate the compliments. Hey, you know, Oh my God. Anytime you can get like a nice compliment from a stranger, like it feels good. And then you end up actually knowing who the stranger is. He literally cat called him. We were very fucking feral. After the game. I would kill to know like what was going through his head. He was looking at us like, are they serious right now? Did he see it was you guys? Did he know in the moment that it was you guys? Yeah, he literally said, why were you guys screaming? He literally walked up to us right after he goes, why were you guys screaming at me? It's like, I know you guys. Oh my God. Oh, I couldn't have been. You know, just giving compliments to friends. That's what we do here. That's all. Oh my God, that's so fucking funny. Man, at least we've said something nice. Yeah, you could have been like. Damn, you were talking shit. And stuff. Man, that was funny. That was a really, really, really, really funny time. My whole weekend was chaos from top to bottom. Like nothing, nothing I thought gonna happen happened and everything that I didn't did. Yeah, I, I had a really shitty weekend in terms of like hangovers and stuff. My sister saw Julien Edelman at the airport, which is cool. They were, he actually was on the same flight and he was nice enough to take a picture with her. Oh, that's cool. He's a good guy, Jules. I've met him a couple of times actually. He's cool. And my sister has been in love with him since. It's like her and Julien Edelman is like what me and Tom Brady is like, I've been in love with him since I was a kid. Like it's pretty similar for her. It was a big moment for her. Picture was so cute. You can tell she was so excited because her face is just like full of that smile. And he's in the same clothes as the night before. He looks hungover. That's so nice of him though. He definitely didn't like go to bed the night before. That is so funny. But yeah, so shout out to Jules for being in the guy that he is. I want to talk about this comment really quick because I just don't think people know how Cleveland is. And I say this to people and I don't think they believe me when I say this. In Cleveland, Ohio, you can meet anybody that you want. I'm not kidding. You can go anywhere you want to and meet anywhere you want to. And this comment says it couldn't be anywhere but at Brown's car park. So they're everywhere. You walk into a restaurant and someone on the Cleveland Browns is there. Walk into the grocery store. Someone from the Cavs is there. You walk down the street with your dog. You walk and pass someone on the guardians walking their dog. Yeah, right. I mean, it's a small city. Yeah, everyone's like real close by. They're like the most famous people here. The athletes are there. Yeah. Yeah. They're everywhere. You can see miles ahead of any day of the week, probably. That's how like pockets of Boston are too. I feel like people kind of don't understand. Like these guys actually do live in a city. Real life stuff, yeah. Yeah. And like when the Bruins all live in like the Seaford area, you could, especially during the summer, any of like the day drinking spots, like if you don't see a Bruin there, like it's actually kind of surprising. Like that's just how it is. Wouldn't be bad to meet a Cavs player. I saw Robin Lopez walking his two golden doodles. So yeah. One of Rob's friends, oddly enough, is like best friends with the Lopez twins. I don't know how I've never told you this story before. That's funny. They grew up together. And last Super Bowl, he went to the Super Bowl with them. They had an extra ticket and they all went. Oh, that's fire. That's so funny. And every time I like see one of them, especially during the Bucks Celtics series last year, I was like, hey, you know, text your boy and tell him to chill the fuck out. Please, please. Oh, that's funny. He's like, nope, I'm not getting involved. I need you. Well, maybe try it. Because he was kind of kicking the shit out of the Celtics for a hot sec. I'm funny. Crazy, crazy stuff. What else? Banner Week for officiating as a whole. Pretty shitty. Oh, oh, yeah. So if you're a Commander's fan. Oh, I'm sorry. And I mean, in a Vikings fan, too, like, there's no reason that game had to go into overtime if it was called correctly. That was a crazy comeback, though, I will say. Kirk Cousins, Kirk Cousins, like we just got to we just need a moment for Kirk Cousins. Some days he's himself like in the game, he literally sacked himself. I said that on TikTok, people got mad. I don't care. He literally tripped over himself and somehow still won. He did it. So he has a really good and he has a really bad, but somehow they're pulling it together and winning. It's just like, especially, it's so funny. It's like always the nationally broadcast games. Like those are the games that he's. He is fucking awesome. Maybe he just like psychs himself out because he's like, holy shit, so many people are gonna be watching me. I don't know. I don't think he's been hyping himself up for it. Well, he finally, I mean, the first half was, was horrifying for him, for the team as a whole. I think what, back to back weeks of over 400 yards. Yeah, thank you. Damn. Yeah. I don't know. And I think he hasn't been playing that bad. Like if you compare him to other teams, like he has been playing very well. But then at the same, the Colts, my God, it's time, pack them up, chip them out. Jeff Saturday is not, it's not gonna work. He's obviously not gonna get hired for real, right? Can we all agree on that? Well, I would hope. Have we seen enough? I've seen what I needed to see. I knew what I knew was gonna happen. Right. Yeah. Going into it, like, I just. This is so funny. Oh man. I don't know. I don't know. What else? Is there any NBA drama that we're missing? NBA is a pretty nonchalant lately. It's been kind of chill. I feel like the Grizzlies are really good. That's basically the only thing that's happening. Yep. Jason Tatum did not play in the Celtics last game because he went to his son's birthday party. He had a birthday party for his son. No way. And then a lot, I've seen a lot of Celtics fans kind of get up in arms about this and I kind of just want them to understand, like they just got back from a two-week road trip. It's his five-year-old son's birthday. You have so many players in the league say that they wish they took more time to be with their fam. Not even Justin basketball, like in professional sports as a whole. Did they win the game? Oh, they lost by like two. Like who were they playing? Magic. So like gross, but like it was like what, the 30th game of the season. He plays like every single second of the game. I mean, he needs a break anyways. But it also like, how many times have you seen athletes say that they wish that they took more time for their families throughout their career? Tom Brady just lost his frickin' marriage because of it. Like, dude, I can't. I'm not even. He did. I'm not even remotely close to being mad at Jason Tatum or not playing in one crappy game to celebrate his son's birthday. Like, come on. Like, sorry the guy's trying to be a good dad and show his family that like, hello, you're still my priority. Like this basketball thing has a lifespan. I feel like for basketball and for MLB specifically, I feel like players should be allowed like. There's so many fucking games, man. I feel like they should be allowed it. Like for baseball, you should be allowed at least like two games where you don't have to play. Right. My choice. Maybe a couple of personal days here and there. Right. Like. It weighed too many. But like if it was somebody like, I don't know off the top of my head, I can't even think, but like a role player doing this, like then I could understand like, oh, your minutes are kind of valuable. You don't get playing time as it is. And now you're going to take the day. But like it's Jason Tatum. He plays over the last, I think like four seasons, he has the most, he's played the most minutes out of anybody in the league. I think him and Jaylen Brown are like one and two. Like it's, it's going to be okay. I promise it's one game. It's one game. There's still the best team in basketball, at least in the Eastern Conference. Like it's going to be fine. I promise. Yeah. I don't know. Maybe worst tri-young like didn't even show up because he was a coach. Like, would you rather not? He's the most dramatic. I could go on, but I'm going to not. But I'm going to not. I'll keep it to myself. And I'll just say tri-young, rooting on your downfall, man. And the whole city of New York, rooting for your downfall. I'm low key. Best team in the Eastern Conference. Yes. I don't care about the Milwaukee Bucks. If you're a Bucks fan and you're going to try to talk to me about them, I'm going to tell you to shut up because I don't care. I don't. I don't. I simply, I'm tired of Giannis and his big, nice guy. Oh, come on. Don't be a Giannis hater. He's so corny. Wait, that's just him. He really is. Like, oh. Are you fucking Giannis? It's like impossible to hate him. I genuinely liked him for a really long time. And then last year, during that playoff series, he really started to rub me the wrong way. Like it's just corny. Like the dad jokes, it's, we're past that. It's not funny anymore. No, he gets a pass. He can do it. I don't know. Oh my God. I literally bucked to the best in the Eastern. I literally just said, I don't care. So have fun talking to him. I'm like, okay, so all the teams, I don't care. So basketball, I don't really dislike any of the teams. I used to have beef with the Warriors because you know, that was torture for me. But I'm just like, Steph Curry's so good. I can't hate him. I don't want to. They're insane too. They're really annoying too. They have some issues they need to work out. I don't know, NBA. I just haven't been able to like get into the NBA like I do. I don't know what it is. That's how I feel about everything this year, except for maybe hockey. And that's definitely just because the Bruins are so fucking hot right now. Like the actual best team in the league. And if you want to argue with me about that too, I don't know what I'm talking about. But like last year, the Bruins, I really struggled to watch hockey and I usually watch every single game. Like I, and last year I had a hard time with that. This year, I've been good about it. But basketball and football to me this year feel a little... Yeah, football is okay for me because I like to watch everybody else. I like other teams besides my Oaks. My Oaks pisses me off and I don't really like them right now. So watching the other ones I enjoyed too. Like I like to watch Patrick we're homes. I like to watch Josh Allen. I really enjoy watching them. So that's fun. I think it's also a product too of like, I don't get every Celtics game here. So the games I do get, I'm more excited for. But like if I have to go through all the hoops to like stream it or something, like I'm not going to do that. Well, it's so hard to like, I'm not going to dream. It's extremely gross. So when I used to, I used to live in Pittsburgh and Pittsburgh is two hours from Cleveland and you couldn't get cabs games there on League Pass. They were blacked out. And I'm like, they don't even have a fucking team. It's two hours away. Just let us watch it. So that's when the cabs were like kind of shitty. So that's that. Back to, we're back to good basketball. Yeah. Great. It's good stuff. I have a Brandon, I have a Brandon Staley story that I wanted to share with you. No, no, no, no, it's not a bad one. It's not a bad one. So I was at this event last night and it was like a charity event in Pittsburgh. Like Shazir was there. He was speaking. This other guy, he has like this big insurance company, life insurance company. And he was like one of the speakers there. And he is like best friends with Brandon Staley. Like from Youngstown, like he knows him. He was at the game the night before. And he said he was talking to him. And this was like a really good quote that he said about one of his players. I don't know who he was talking about, but he said they played one, they paid one of their players because he is a great player. He's not the best at his position, but they paid him because he's low maintenance. And that makes sense. He's a good locker room guy. He doesn't cause issues. He does what he needs to do. Goes to work, plays well. Doesn't really make any mistakes. Low maintenance kind of guy. And I kind of like that. Who are we talking about here? I don't know which player it is. But I like that. There's a few on that team that I think could fit the mold for that. That's a pretty interesting thing to say. And I like that. Oh, that's good. I feel like a lot of players are not. Right. I'm glad he said something that I can like support because this guy, he's just such a dork. I don't like him at all. Yeah, John Carroll, John Carroll guy. But yeah, low maintenance, so. Thank you. There's a lot of high maintenance. Yeah. There's a lot of stars right now that I feel like are low maintenance. I feel like the wide receivers are not as out of pocket as they used to be. Yeah. Like Justin Jefferson, he's a superstar. And he's just like a chill, funny guy. Did you see that video of him with that super fan? Like Jackie? Yeah. I fucking love her. Awesome. I love her. And then you have Stefan Diggs. Like everybody like makes fun of him and says all this shit about him and like rips him. But if you guys didn't see, he gifted a child who lost his dad this year, a little pair of Nike Air Forces with like a picture of his dad on one side and like Diggs on the other side with an autograph. And like that, there's not that many high maintenance wide receivers right now. I kind of like that for them. Yeah. Stefan Diggs is somebody like he plays for the team. I probably hate the most, but like, I can't not like this guy. I can't. Right. Like he's just so good. A good guy. He's just a good person. Now with the ladies, he's a little crazy. Oh yeah. I see the videos and I hear the drama, but... Oh yeah. Look, that's his personal life, you know? The side chicks at the game and stuff. Having two women at the same hotel on Valentine's Day, like that's what he wants to do and spend his time and money. You might guess, dude. But the Justin Jefferson thing with Jackie, like if you have not seen the videos of Jackie during Vikings games, she's nuts. And it's the funniest thing. She curses up a storm. She says everything exactly what I'm thinking, but she says it out loud. It's so funny. I can only imagine what she was like during that game. I guess she probably almost died like five times. There's a five minute video of all of her reactions. Oh God, I need the link. Yeah, it is so good. It's right. It's like the most recent video that they posted on the TikTok is awesome. I feel like the Vikings are really enjoyable though. Everything that's going, I already talked about them, but all the videos that come about, come about of everything that they do, awesome. Like they're the radio guy. Oh yeah. He was awesome. They're playing like I play radio, yeah. Great. Really good. Speaking, I mean, switching over, hard change here to the other football, road cups over. And. I watched. I watched. Got the most exciting World Cup final game that we possibly could have gotten. And it was unbelievable. It was one of the best soccer games I've ever watched. And I like to think I've watched a decent amount in my lifetime. It was fucking awesome. And I am so, so happy for Messi. So happy for him. Did you really have to get lifted off the parade bus by a helicopter? Is that true? Yeah. So I saw the tweets that there were like four or five million people that came out to the point where like the streets were completely blocked off. So they had to come in with a helicopter and take the team off the bus. And then they like did the rest of the route that way. Insane. That's crazy. Like it's the photos that have come out of the parade and stuff like they're on, like the on ramps of the highways and stuff. There's no room for anything. I can't imagine being there and having like some sort of like claustrophobia because that's it. You're done. There's nowhere for you to go. It's crazy. But I'm so happy for him. I'm really happy that the game itself was as advertised because sometimes when you get these matchups of like these super teams, like France is always a very good team. Argentina, always a very good team. And Bat-Bay, Messi, like the storyline was just pumping it up and pumping it up. And it would have been really shitty if it was kind of a let down, but it was the complete opposite. It was awesome. Very good. So it was a good start. The only issue I have obviously was it started at seven o'clock in the morning and setting my alarm for 6.50 AM in Las Vegas was one of the most painful things I've ever done. But it was worth it. I'm glad I did it. Yeah, that's a rough one. That's a rough one. Yeah. Because most people are still up at that time. Oh yeah. Yeah, the casino floor looked exactly how I left it at two o'clock in the morning. So. Yeah. If we want to talk about something, it's kind of sports related. It's sports related in a sense. So if you guys don't know, there's this girl on TikTok. What's her last name? I don't know how to say her last name. Alex Earl. Alex Earl. She has been blowing up. She's a beautiful woman. She is so funny. She goes to Miami. Like this girl is just doing it. She's living a life that we can only dream of. She has become like the queen of social media in five seconds flat. Like. Super cool girl. Funny girl, like down to earth. She had a boyfriend. And this boyfriend is a failed product of MLB. Yeah. And what's his name, Tyler? Tyler Wade. Mr. New York Yankee. He is, yep, a Yankee farm system guy. He played for the angels for a little bit this year. And then they said, wow, you really stink. And they got rid of him. And now he's back with the Yankees, I believe. Yeah. Has, you know, hasn't really stuck in the majors. It's, he's been more of a minor's guy. And I'm like, yeah, I mean, whatever. Sure. But I think he got a little jealous of this woman's fame and rise to everything that she was doing. So they're very attractive couple. Oh my God. Very attractive couple. He's so handsome. He really is. Definitely not my type of guy, but I will say he's handsome. He is, he's a very good looking guy. I will admit, I used to have a crush on him. But now he's canceled. But now after everything she said about the reason why they broke up and stuff, like I can absolutely see it. And it's, he's done. Yeah. So he basically said he didn't want to post her on social media. He didn't tell her birthday on social media. He just was, I think very jealous of everything that she was posting on social media. Telling her what she could and couldn't post. Didn't want to be in that way. So that's fine. Like if you don't want to be in it, don't say you don't want to and like have that combo. But I don't think that he had the confidence to date a woman like her. Absolutely not. I think he was very insecure with himself. So. And the, my thing is like, if you are not a social media person, that's completely fine. He is. Sometimes, well yeah, when it comes to himself, he is, which is the kind of why this whole situation is like, what the hell? Like sometimes I wish I wasn't a social media person and like didn't have to post stuff and whatever, well, it's like, I get it, but if you are going to sit there and like belittle the person that you are in a relationship with for posting on social media, which is effectively her job. Yeah, she's making so much money doing that. She's making more money than your minor league contract. So. Exactly. So maybe she reconsider that. She's providing for you at this point. And whatever, like gender norms and relationships, nobody gives a shit about that anymore. But like she is doing the absolute, like she's doing the fucking thing right now from every angle. She's the girl. She is the girl. She's the moment. Everything she wants to do, she can do. I just can't imagine sitting there and looking at my beautiful girlfriend who just bought me all of these nice things and gets to go on all of these like brand sponsored trips and things like that and looking at her and saying, oh, you're gonna post that on social media and then getting mad. Like, I'm sorry. Right. So this comes to the question that I wanna ask everybody. Would you break up with someone if they didn't post you on social media? And I have an answer, but I think my answer comes with layers. Yeah, mine does too. So. Because I've been in that position where like I've tried to keep my private life private. Yeah. And it's hard. Right. It's hard to do when your job is social media. Yeah, and they had a public relationship. That's the thing. Like their relationship was very public and he couldn't be in her things but he wouldn't include her. And I get it. Like, I don't think, so if I had a boyfriend, a girlfriend, if I was dating anyone at the moment, I don't think I would post them. I personally wouldn't because I don't think any of the people that I've been like going on dates would want me to post them and I wouldn't want them to post me. But that's a personal preference. Right. But their situation, eh. Yeah. Like, well, that's like with Rob, like I post photos of us and photos of him and stuff because I like to. But at the same time, I get very scared because I'm like, okay, what are these psychos on the internet? Right, what are they gonna do? What are they gonna do? Because people legitimately have gone to his page and have been mean to him because of something that I've posted, like making fun of him for like whatever the hell, for his beard or something. Yeah, I had one time, I had a man comment on my Instagram post and it turned into an article. Oh. It's just like, so like that makes me kind of not want to post my relationship. But at the same time, like I'm very secure and happy with my relationship and like dynamic we have when it comes to social media because I feel like at this point in time, like it is something that needs to kind of be talked about just because how big social media has become. And like that we have a mutual understanding, like it's not a requirement, but like it's sometimes it's nice to see. Yeah, and then like for him to tell her what she can and can't post, that's a whole different level. Get the hell out of there with that. You told me that, like you're done. Pack your bags out the door, like that's immediately done. You're not gonna tell me how I'm gonna do things for like her too, essentially her job, so. The thing is with that, like I'm gonna know like the limits of what is gonna be respectful or disrespectful to my relationship. Like I'm not gonna post a freaking laundry photo obviously because that's I think that's way over the line for me and for my relationship. But like if she gets a brand deal with something like that and she's getting paid to do that, like he's gonna have to. Why does he care what she's supposed to see? Because he's insecure and he wants to like control her and he doesn't what other people see her in her audience is mostly women anyways. Exactly. He's secure with himself to say that like you are a beautiful woman. I'm lucky to be with you and I'm happy that I'm with you and I want you to succeed in your career how you can. I don't know. Like there's just a story that we're going on a man rant but justice for this woman. It's like. We haven't had one in a really long time so I feel like it's due. Right. And there's like even men. This is like even further step. There's men that have girlfriends and wives that have only fans and they help them make the content. They make a lot of money and they all spend it together. Like this girl I follow. She's my favorite person to follow on TikTok. And she's low key, not an only fan basically from start at this point. My name is Anna Paul. If you guys don't know who she is, her Twitter and her TikTok, not the same. I'm on the TikTok side. TikTok is great. TikTok is great. Her videos are funny and her boyfriend just like helps her out and makes all this shit and they go on trips every single week and do all kinds of crazy stuff. I just can't imagine being an adult and being so concerned with what my significant posts. Like if my boyfriend wants to post like a shirtless picture for whatever reason, like go ahead. Right. And it's just- You look hot, go ahead. It's funny. It's just so funny. Cause even they're like, take it to things that we post now. There's men that say, why would you post this? Why are you doing that? I'm like, why do you care? Why do you start harming you? 17 year old was like, oh, that's a lot of makeup. Like, first of all, I'm a 26-year-old woman. I wear makeup. I'm in Las Vegas. Like what the hell do you expect? Oh my God. I hate that. And then why do you care? You wear the makeup, you wanna- Shut up. Just shut up and let me be. The best part about it was there was somebody that replied and was like, well, it is a lot of makeup. I was like, hey. Did I ask? But then he was like, well, maybe it's not. I don't know. My wife just doesn't wear a lot. Like good for you. Who cares? Then why are you talking to me? Then why are you talking to me? Talk to your wife. Congratulations. Your wife has a preference of not wearing a lot of makeup. That's great for her. I hope she's happy. That's cool. But I like makeup. I like, and I'm totally fine with not wearing it. But I also like to mess with it because I'm pretty good at it. So- Sometimes it's just kind of a good therapy session to just sit there and do it. It's a good relaxing time. You're not doing really much. Like it's almost like a nap. Yeah. Low key. I don't know. Stupid. More live the story, like let people just live their life and do whatever they want to do. But it's not harming you and it's not harming me. And why am I even talking? I will say on like a last little note on this thing, I'm really proud of her because she's only 22. She like just turned 22. Yeah, she just had a whole little birthday celebration. I'm wicked proud of her for being mature enough to realize that the situation has deteriorated. And it's not a healthy thing for her anymore. And to handle it as well as she has and not felt the need to kind of stay with him despite the fact that she's happy and turned into a toxic thing just because he is the handsome baseball player and stuff like that. We're never going to turn the comments on his Instagram posts again. You know what the funniest part about it was? I went through his Instagram. He was like, I need to check this out. I need to see what's going on. I'm new women. We're going to be commenting on it. And I click on the photo. I have like five of my guy friends. He follows like five of the guys who play on the Guardians there. I see all their comments first. One scroll next back. I said, why are you guys commenting on this? Right. I don't know. He just, I just can't imagine Thumbnail in the bag as much as he did. Yeah, he's going to hear from the women for a while. He'll probably get a lot of DMs too. Well, that's the thing. There's going to be some girls that are going to fly in and pick the scraps and stuff. Yeah. Good luck with that one. Cause you saw what happened before. Why do you think it's going to be any different? Right. I mean, if he's going to do that with her, what's he going to do with you? See, that's what I'm saying. Like every time I talk about like people cheating or doing things or like things that they don't like, it's not because they're not attractive. And it's not because they find something that's more attractive. They're going to do it because they want to do it. Right. Exactly. Exactly. Well, shout out to Alex Earl. We are team Alex Earl on this podcast. So, if you want to do pics this week, I don't know how many of them metal looks great. We can just talk about like a few things. I do want to talk about one thing. I want to talk about one thing and I want to talk about the games on Christmas day. And I was thinking maybe we should do like a Christmas day. I'll just say I'm partly, that'd be fun. You know, it's a holiday. And then I looked at the games and I said, who of these games might just be a field goal at you? What games even are they? I know the Bucks and the Cardinals. That could be all field goals easily. That's going to be a shit show. Well, we thought about going to that because we obviously are not going home for Christmas because we're house sitting. And we thought about driving to Arizona for the game. I couldn't have been happier that we decided not to do that. So, that game, why would we even bother making a touchdown parlay when the Bucks, Cardinals, Broncos and Rams all play? Gross. Right. But then the Packers and Dolphins. So that could potentially have a couple. Okay. But the other two. Well, we could also, what we could do, maybe. Maybe we could do like some kind of crossover with the basketball. Well, that'd be fun. Yeah. You could do like a touchdown and like a point total or something. Yeah, or like a player prop over or something. I don't even know what games are on Christmas basketball. Lots of really good, lots of really good basketball. Oh, Bucks Celtics. That's good. Grizzlies, Warriors, that's going to be so annoying. The Grizzlies, Warriors is going to be so annoying because they hyped it up to be a fake rivalry. Well, so Lakers Nuggets. Um, Hunts Nuggets. Lakers Maps, that's going to be stupid game. Maps are a little interesting. Yeah, they've been getting kicked by the Cavs. Yeah, a little bit of a mess. And that was without Luca too. Yeah, we could maybe what we could do is we could do a touchdown parlay and then we could do like a daily fantasy thing. For the Sunday games, like we did for the playoffs, I'm sure. See, those games are so I can't believe they're making us watch Baker Mayfield on Christmas. I just want to let the people know he had his one drive. And guess what happened next? Went to shit. Yeah, well, it's all that one coming. He's going to make he's going to make Mike. I'm going to say Mike, I'm out of control. Dominic Bay. Retired. I just. All of these Christmas day games, like they at the beginning of the season, looking at them, it probably looked so good. The only good game that we are going to get only good game we're going to get this weekend. Now, Thursday game, it could be a little interesting. It definitely is going to be something. And I think the Hawks and the Chief has potential. I think I don't know. I think the Seahawks might have might have dropped a little bit in my. But the only interesting game to me is Eagles versus the Cowboys. I circled this one like a month and a half ago. Obviously, the circumstances have changed a little different. But I still. I took the Cowboys in the beginning of November when we started talking about this game and when the Eagles were going to get their first loss. And now it has finally happened and we're here. But now Gardner Minchu and there's something about Gardner Minchu where he's out on the field, crazy shit happens. So the worst quarterback you could put out. He's really not. He's really not. He's awesome. It would have been good if the Cowboys didn't lose to the Jags. Yeah. Embarrassing, jealous, embarrassing. When Trevor Lawrence fumbled that ball, I thought it was that was pathetic. That was a really bad, bad fumble. I will be so sad that I have the Cowboys I have the Cowboys defense. Let's just take you through the day with them because it was a whirlwind started off. Like maybe 12 points, I think ended up with zero. Thankfully, it didn't matter. Miles Sanders career game upcoming. If there's someone I'm rooting for, Miles Sanders. Yeah, he is an all time funny guy. He scores here. We'll give you this. What we'll do, Miles Sanders, two touchdowns. That's it. That's what I'm going with. I'm done. OK, whatever. One thing I got, there's nothing else. I'm looking at all these games and there's no one that I'm confident that will do anything well, especially people playing in five degree weather. I'm like, I'm staying away from the Patriots props and from the rest of my life. Life because it is not going to happen. I mean, anything I say is not going to happen. They're going to they called a fucking time out before they scored two touchdowns and both of them didn't count. Like I just I'm done. I'm tired of this team. I kind of hope that they now I'm talking crazy, but I kind of hope that they lose the last three games of this. I don't know. You don't mean that. Play, I do not mean that. You don't mean that. I'm just so tired. Do you have a playoff path? Like, what's the path that gets you there? I'm thinking they win this week and they beat Miami the last week of the year. If because they're not going to win, they're not going to be buffalo. Who needs to help you to get there? The jets need to continue to suck. The chargers need to drop, I think, at least to. And I haven't even looked at anything else. Those are just the only two off the top of my head. We should make some kind of funny thing. Like if the Browns somehow make the playoffs, I'll drink a glass of Lake Erie water. You're going to end up in the house. I'm already sick. It doesn't matter. Maybe that'll cure it. Maybe. Maybe. Oh, man, so do I. Yeah, I just the Patriots have, like, I think it's like a 19 percent chance. I'm sorry. Now, like, where did it were cooked? It's it's been fun. It hasn't actually been fun. But, you know, I don't know. Yeah, I. I haven't even updated. A. Cracker of what needs to happen, because at this point, I feel like it's going to be way too long for me to even care about too many things. Once you get past like two teams needing to help you out, like, that's when you know you're done. You're done. So, yeah, but like I'm looking at this slate of games and like I kind of hate almost all of them. Why is Panthers might be like sneaky? OK. Yeah, it's miserable that the Steelers Raiders are eight o'clock. So, yeah, well, maybe Sunday night football in Pittsburgh. They're not even selling out their games. Like maybe the Steelers. I'm sorry, but that's pathetic. The Patriots and we can stop talking about the page. But like, it's pathetic. You know, this this is my last thing that I'll say tonight. Also, big Steelers hater and I'm going to let them know you are a historic franchise. You might be the best franchise. You might be the best franchise historically in the NFL. You could be. But guess what? You're looking pretty fucking pathetic. Games aren't selling out. I don't care that your team is not good. The goddamn Cleveland Browns had a parade when they went, oh, in 16. OK, people showed up. Games were packed. People were there at all times. Don't call yourself a good franchise unless you show up for your team when they suck. Be there at all costs. I got to say, like. Yeah. And the way that they're they're pushing that game to like the immaculate reception stuff, like. I I don't think your targeted audience that's going to be watching an eight p.m. game during the holidays is actually going to be watching this. Like people, the only people that were old enough to remember the immaculate reception definitely aren't going to be staying up to watch two shit teams. Right. They should play in this game. A division game. Division game people will watch because it doesn't matter. Yeah, right. One of the team's records are you want to beat them. This one. I don't know. I don't know. Obviously, Wicked Bitter and I hope nothing good ever happens to the Raiders ever again. So that makes sense. 100 percent agree with you. I understand. Anyways, it's all I really got for you guys. We'll have a have a fancy league Sunday. My voice is almost on E. We'll put the link out there. Yeah, wait, Howard. You should probably figure that out, Howard, because the main slate of games is on Saturday. Um, right. Probably ask. Well, probably we'll probably have it on Saturday. We'll have one this weekend. The day is DVD. Yeah. And we'll let you guys know when it is. Other than that, I hope you guys have a great holiday. If your teams. And playoff contention, I hope they make it. And if they're not. I hope they don't hurt your feelings on. Um, and fantasy playoffs and good luck. It says it'll start Saturday and one. It says it'll start Saturday. Oh, really? Perfect. So there we go, guys, Saturday. See you there. Last week, my team could have been any fucking worse. Bounce back. I completely forgot to actually make a roster last week. Well, I'll remind you. All right, y'all, Merry Christmas. Happy holidays. Enjoy the time with your family and all that good stuff, fantasy playoffs. And we will see you in the new year. Yeah.
