[Assistant] I can't even get a comment in, Pat. That's why this game is so action packed. The second I start to speak, another goal seems to be flying off the board here with the German. What is it? One to one right now? One to one. It's not just cycle ball. It's cycle ball and the goalie from the other end.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That seems like it should be cherry picking or something. I need to check the rule book on this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The real question, Pat, if you shoot it from your own goal, the...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Isn't it weird though when you see these guys at the coin toss, you see them dap each other up and shake hands. Just how weird it seems now to see that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Inserted in as the starter. I mean, you already chalked him up as being a Pro Bowl player this year for the Chicago Bears and Teddy Bridgewater. I don't know. I don't know if Mitchell, if they're going to move on from Mitchell Trubisky, which it seemed like they were holding onto their guns, going to try to say, no, Mitchell is our guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you're gonna move on from him, I just don't know if Teddy Bridgewater is the guy. Why? Who's the guy?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I do think you're right, but it seems like we're being proven wrong a little bit with the Titans saying, no, we're going to, we're going to lock up Tana Hill to a long-term extension and supposedly the Niners, do you believe the Niners really said, nah, we're good, we'll pass?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I don't think he would, but I guess I understand why they would say, okay, we feel like we have a team built for long-term success. Hopefully that's whether you believe that or not. The Niners believe that and we have a young Jimmy Garoppolo and we don't want to have to dump a bunch of money to Tom Brady to try to have a one or two year window when we feel like we have a 10 or 12 year window. What does this mean for Andy Dalton?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think Andy Dalton to the New England Patriots looks beautiful. I think it's a great move and I think Andy will be lights out there. That's the thing. Andy's kind of under the radar with all these other quarterbacks that are free agents. I think Andy is one of the best in the group that could have a hell of a year next year, wherever he is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It seems like the perfect, does any of these other quarterbacks out there on the market, if you could think of the Patriots being led by somebody else, does any of them make more sense than Andy Dole?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, hey, you know what? It doesn't make any sense, but Bill Belichick, like we've said before, is a unique, weird dude that doesn't listen to outside voice. Like he's gonna stick to his guns. Like it wouldn't be the craziest thing for Bill Belichick to bring someone like that in. Now the fact that he threw 30 interceptions last year, Bill can't be happy about that. Hold on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or if I was Jameis and his agent, I would spin that to the positive and say, that's how strong my arm is that these defenders can't catch the ball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a lot of production. If you could feed, maybe some coaches think, Hey, I can, I can hone it in. I can find a way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To make him more efficient, more accurate, not throw all these interceptions. You know, Pat, coaches have giant egos for a reason. They should. A lot of them could do some great work. Someone feels like they can fix everybody. What's a, what's Adam Gase's?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, he's not a New York guy. His personality, like, he obviously doesn't enjoy speaking to the media and his whole first press conference with his eyes darting all over the place was not a great start. But if he is able to be successful though in New York,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He could become like a cult hero, like the anti-hero work. I don't like any of this garbage, this hoopwah that surrounds us in New York. Oh, this is too much for me. And then people will love that about him. Like why people love Belichick in his interviews. Like you could, if Gaze was successful, he could turn into that guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I don't know what it hit me. He better win. He better win quick. He's got a chance. He's got Sam Darnold. I think Sam could be a really good player.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I think he's good. I don't know if he's great, but I think he's, I think he has the possibility to be great. Yeah. He's so young. He's so young.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, which way does Baker go this year?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If it's even, say you're an executive or a team owner and you're thinking about paying a quarterback, a big franchise deal, if it ever crossed your mind that you're starting quarterback was one of those guys that you got to be scared to pay, which we know there's guys like that all the time. And the coaches, everyone knows like, Hey, yeah, this guy's a stud, but hey, I don't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't want to see him on a second deal. Like on a rookie deal, this guy's hungry. And then a second deal, he's going to get comfortable. If you ever had that thought in your mind for your quarterback, if you're scared to pay him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then you don't ever even think about extending the dude because your quarterback has to be the craziest, most detail oriented type A kind of person, like just leader driven that is going to do everything. And all the great ones at the quarterback position are, and there's no question about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We know how much hate, like, Patriots hate is out there due to their success outside of the Boston area. If they somehow got the number one overall pick, they, people will absolutely lose their minds and I'd be happy, it'd be fun to watch. It'd be awesome.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, no, it's a safe bet to say I was never asked, and rightfully so. My long, ratty...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Garbage long hair I had. No, I mean, Clay Matthews is the hair guy. His hair is nice, a lot of volume. Some like natural curls almost. Like I didn't have that. I had long stringy weird hair. So I should never have been asked to do a Head and Shoulders commercial.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But would they put a wig on me? For the baths? The baths that I need?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did not know that, but I don't have any curls. My hair is dead straight no matter how, whatever the length is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, it's a long, weird story. I wanted to have long hair. I love Pat Tillman. He went over, he died. Little tribute to him, my buddies and I did it. So yeah. So you grew your hair out for Pat Tillman? That's why you had long hair? I mean, partly, yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I was a fan of Pat Tillman when he was alive. And then he went over and he died when I was in college. And myself, Bobby Carpenter, Anthony Schlegel, and Nick Mangold actually already had kind of long hair.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yea, grew a hair out and then I had it for 10 years long and then I didn't realize how...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bad it really looked until I cut it off. I'm like, oh, okay, cool. This feels good now. Feels good having shorter hair again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cool, well you know what big douchers do, they like to announce that stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yup. Let's pander to everybody. Let's, let's really virtue signal our way out of this show. Pat, what do you think? You go first, you go next.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's a weird time. It's a really weird time. It happened so quickly too, didn't it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I don't know. We'll see how long this lasts, but I mean, everyone's, everyone, have you been getting a lot of like, do you get texts from people or you have buddies come up to you like, hey, my wife's cousin's sister's brother knows somebody that works in the ER in DC. 72 hours. Full lockdown in the next six hours for at least 80 days.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's how it always goes. Like everyone knows somebody that works in an ER or something which I cannot imagine working there. It's gotta be unbelievably brutal like conditions and then work long hours and not enough space. It's gonna be crazy. It's only gonna get worse, but everyone seems to have their source. It's almost like the insiders. Everyone wants to like break what's coming next when nobody truly knows.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't have any connections to anything. I don't have any insiders, uh, nothing. Because first off, I don't believe any of them and I don't go out there and seek them. And when they do present themselves to me, if it's in person, usually I'm pretty dismissive of it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not at all. No, no, no. I'm saying, I, I just try to say, we don't know. I don't know. We don't know. So don't, I don't want to stand in a grand stand and try to tell people what's going on. Well, what do you think is going on?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Great question, Pat. I don't know. I am smart enough to tell you that I don't know what's going on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, the weird thing is going to be whenever sports do happen again, like whenever basketball starts again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or hockey, or baseball. Aren't they most likely going to start with empty stadiums? They've already said that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, did you see that debate last night with no, uh, crowd? What's wrong with this question? Is that a bad question to ask? We're not under zone right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Come back. I think people are going to be so excited to have live sports to watch. They're gonna, I think it's gonna last much longer than a week. Like the excitement that this is what we have. Like we're, whenever that comes, like it'll give us some, some sense of like normalcy. Like life is getting back to where it was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I don't know, I know like the NHL shut down too and haven't they said like it's going to be at least eight weeks and when they come back it's going to be no crowd?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nobody. Who does? That's the question. Is everybody looking at each other to see what the answer is?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, there's obviously experts out there that study these diseases and have for 30 or 40 years and all. I feel like what they go over, they go off of a lot of what happened in previous plagues and things like this, these outbreaks of, and they go like off the numbers and they show, okay, if we, this model, if we do what Philly did in 1918 and have a parade, then it's going to exponentially


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Double triple, it's gonna go so fast, but if we socially isolate and whatever, like that's what people like to say they go off. What, what has happened in the past?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, that's the best possible, that's what they want you to do, Pat. Just, just kind of hang out inside. You don't need to go out and watch, go see the Joker at the $3 movie theater. Like you don't need to do that kind of stuff. That was a weird laugh that time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't, I don't know how any, like, business makes it, like, depending on how long this goes, but at least Carryout is open. That's the good thing. Like, keep Carryout open, give them a chance to make some money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But is it transferred through food? Do we know that? We don't know how it's really even transferred too much, I guess. I just feel like everybody spits at my food.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did you realize that after you finished the whole hot dog?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean why, why would you put two, so you wanted two hot dogs, one bun, why would they put one hot dog, two pieces of cheese?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, stay safe out there, Pat and Indy. Stay safe on your drive. How far is the studio from your house?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What happens if, uh, something in the near future and they don't let you leave your house, really, to come to the studio?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would be really hard for a business to do that for like a week if you think about it like in a non-coronavirus time, but if you think...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two months, that's just a gigantic amount of time. I don't know. Yeah, we'll see it. We're going to, we'll figure it out. I'm sure everyone's going to, going to come up with a plan and do it, whatever they can. But man, it's just a weird time. Hopefully we'll never have a time like this again. Ever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I saw a little bit of that one. I thought, well, you probably couldn't travel to go to. I thought you'd be perfect for that. Me too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's good, I know the Packers signed Christian Kirksey like we talked about to start off the show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we'll see now the thing, well, free agency is happening, so what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did he? I don't know. I've never played for him, but he seems to be like a good defensive coordinator.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bring a couple guys in on the edge and get some pressure on the quarterback, which is huge. You have a chance if you can do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, everybody was. It seems like it- I don't know, does Stefanski have a chance though? Like, it's not an easy- I didn't even know-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, their whole interview process, Pat, remember they went through everything. Josh McDaniels was there nine or 10 hours, but he wouldn't agree to give them so much power. He wanted a little bit of control over things. So Stefanski obviously worked out a deal and they're going to, we'll see how it works. I don't know. It seems to be, it seems to be difficult. They got the money ball guy there. They got the owner. They got everybody involved. Smart.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean CBD at the most. I don't think they will be allowed to have anything with THC in it, in the facilities.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You tell me, you think, oh, hey, oh Pat, yeah, you got banged up, made a few tackles there on kickoff tonight. Oh yeah, doc. My knees really, really hurt me here, Pat. Here's a couple of 20 milligram gummies. Have fun. Like they're not going to do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyway, they give painkillers to anybody. Like I saw a weird dude snap his leg completely in half and had to stay in Kansas City. And I know it was impossible for them to even get him like two Percocets. What's that all about?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They, you know, like they came in and shut down all the drugs. I think they did, the FDA or whatever, when guys got busted. Toradol. Couldn't do the Toradol anymore. Oh yea, I've never had a Toradol shot. I hear it's amazing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I think I've told you that in the past, but yeah, I never had, cause they don't give them in Green Bay. Dr. McKenzie there, he's awesome. He cares about players. He's the man, but he's never had one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, they're not, they can't even get viked and that's the thing. Like talk to any team doc, like it's hard. They can't just carry stockpiles of pills either. Like they'd all changed. I don't know how many years ago, but no, they didn't even shoot them up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I think they, uh, they, they haven't done, the doctor, they hadn't done toward all shots in 10, 15 years, 15 years I think. Ah, they stink. Never gonna win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe it helps the, the longevity of the players though. Eh, who cares.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think you can still get it, but you have to sign a waiver that you won't sue the team 30 years down the road. There's, it's definitely changed. I'm sure you can still get it, but you have to probably prove that you have some kind of legit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kind of injury, you can't just get it all the time, just for overall health.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How much does it say about this dude's athleticism where he's drafted throwing 95? He's like, ah, man, I can't figure out, can't find the strike zone. Yeah, let's just go be a, an NFL tight end and go start somewhere. Now take over for Austin Hooper, who just departed to go to Cleveland. So yeah, good opportunity opens up. Matt Ryan can still sling it. So go get some, get some numbers there in Atlanta. Basketball players do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Aren't you always surprised when you're around NBA guys in person and they're 900 feet tall and their waist is like 24 inches around? They're so skinny.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You did a bang-up job on intros, by the way, for the Pelicans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did you, uh, I know we're wrapping up, but did you, uh, how many thoughts did you have in your head going into that? Because that was, I mean, that was some like Michael or Bruce Buffer type UFC intro. Yeah, better than him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a good point. Did you know all the, did you know the starting five going into the game? Tell you what.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I already have, I have pictures already. Yea, we have pictures from them doing sit-ups during their recess and pull-ups and all kind of stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean it's not like there's 30 kids in there, that's not safe, I don't, it's not that many kids.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're done now, they're finished up, uh, maybe eight, seven, eight kids. Yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they are on top of each other, therefore you will see them, you will interact with them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. My son's seven. He's in the first grade. Yeah. Full go conversations about everything. My daughter's nine. Yeah. She really, they're super, their brains aren't messed up yet and they continue to grow. So they remember stuff that you said six months ago, like, Oh yeah, dad, remember Abe Lincoln? He's the one that freed the slaves. Like they re they, they stuff sticks in their brain. It's amazing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But my daughter, she was making all the slime like, Hey, we can't do this anymore. And if you're going to do this, you need to make it a business and start selling it. So I got her a bunch of these little plastic containers and we go, that's a good one. You saw that one for a dollar. This one, if you want to cut, you should start getting, you making custom slime for other kids and sell for three, four bucks. So she's sold a few of them so far.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Accentuate the positives from that. You know, he's going to be an entrepreneur, hustler guy. You just got to make sure you channel that in the right direction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So yeaah, I know your game, uhm, I'm older than all of you too, I believe, so like, it's not like I'm the little brother that you're taking advantage of, that's what you try to do here in these moments.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yea, I think right now we're in the weirdest time ever, Pat. We really are. Yea, we are!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Huh? That's not what it's- Suit. In a suit, you sue people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have him with Fitzpatrick, he can learn too. It just feels like Miami is the spot for two.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Stiddy's the guy. I love Stiddy. He's basically a white Cam Newton, uh, but we'll see. They might trade up and try and protect him, maybe get him a weapon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coach on the field. Stinks. Does stink.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A report was that they think his best years are behind him, like he's already-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We've just been told that this is copyrighted video. That was quarantine sports.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The mags in like New York City and stuff like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I thought it said it didn't affect, uh, how players are reinstated. It's just that guys can't get suspended going forward. That's kinda fucked up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, they said Stefanski used more two tight end sets than any other coordinator last year, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Makes a lot of sense though, now I'm thinking about it. So when Rogers came back in that second half against the Bears, they just gave him like a Vicodin, a couple Vicodins?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Guys retired. Sore. Maybe we don't need a receiver. Just get some Toradol, shit can, pet, and we're ready to go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think a lot of people believe that that happens.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, but sometimes you know when it's flag after flag after flag and you're sitting there on live TV, there's not a whole lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tremendous value and is kind of the godfather of all these, of all these officials that have gone into TV.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I'm not doing a game, am I watching West Coast baseball feeds? And I said, nah, I mean, I'm a married guy. I've got young girls at the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said I'm watching The Bachelor or The Bachelorette and that kinda went viral and acted like I didn't watch baseball, which is, I mean I feel like I've watched a ton of baseball in my life, but I was being honest and it pissed them off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, uh, welcome to McVee and Hawk Sports Talk, Day 5. This morning, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My show was live from 10 to 12, and we were shadow banned by YouTube, and I sent a tweet to YouTube letting them know that, hey, I'm on to your...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shit. And this one is not Shadowban, by the way. YouTube has made it very obvious. They want this show to succeed, and my other show to die. And that's probably for good reason, because joining me over my left shoulder is a very handsome Ohio State legend. AJ Hawk. What's up, AJ Hawk?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I did think this show was gonna last longer than 48 hours to be honest with you, but I think that's kinda how everybody felt about this quarantine. You got nothing else to do because your kids are trapped in your house. Is that accurate?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did send the initial text, but I won't lie and say that when I saw the text, I knew it was strictly because you're currently on house arrest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, not Wednesday! Shows canceled already next Wednesday. We are doing a show tomorrow and Sunday though, is that right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you, you text me this morning like 5 45 a.m. to alpha and show that you were awake and thinking about the business, which I respect. I woke up at 6 0 5 and I read that and I was like, I love Aaron Hawk. I love this man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're watching our part of our family. They should be a part of the decision making process. You know what I mean? You're right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Really? Yeah, she loves it. She like, she thinks a lot of people are too nice to me, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hefty glass of whiskey AJ. Have you seen? That's a whole bottle this guy's got of whiskey in his cup. Have you seen this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, there was a draft for this baseball game that we're doing this afternoon, uh, for our Office Olympics. We've given away 9550 bucks so far, uh, this week from the Office Olympics.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This weekend and, uh, this afternoon we'll be giving away even more money. But it's Baseball, AJ. Have you ever seen the movie Baseball back in the day?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's nothing to do with what-basic-basic-basic-basic-basic-basic-basic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would, I would put top dollar on the fact that Aaron Rodgers likes baseball a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Ray Allen, good at golf. I'll tell you who's very good at golf. Scotty Pippen. Scotty fucking Pippen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Scotty Pippen is unbelievable what he did. Uh, Diggs, what's up?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ranking news here, uh, Ty's here, Foxy's here, and Connor is also here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Didn't you just say that? I think you literally just said it a couple days ago is that would be a good move for the Steelers. Didn't you say that? Not a bad play. Eric Ebron obviously with the Lions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, so Pittsburgh and Detroit or Detroit hates him and Pittsburgh's gonna hate him because he's thinking about his family's future. Evan Fox. I've no


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, that's a big compliment. I take a lot, that's a massive compliment for you to say that about me as a fellow Rust Belt guy. That makes me feel real good. I do question whether or not the Rust Belt folks will love Eric Fibro.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, at Lambeau, onto the field as starters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did you go out last? And what did you do whenever you came out? Was there an entire helmet off, hair flip, spray the hair? You know what I mean? Do the whole thing? Was that how AJ Hawk came onto Lambeau whenever they intro'd the defense?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I gave it to equipment manager though, my guy frog. He said, I got you pal. I can't wait to watch the show. Give me your helmet. He actually said before I even got a chance to hand to him backwards hat, full smoke coming out of the tunnel. HBK spin at the top. It's a place I'm crazy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we kicked a onside kick to ourself in the first quarter. And it was, uh, it was probably the best day of my life now that I think about it. I mean, it was, it was awesome. The other team, I couldn't even fathom what the other team was thinking while I was getting introduced. I couldn't even.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coney, Chuck Pagano coming up to me and going, hey, have you ever, uh, have you ever been introduced? And I go, no. And he goes, you're getting introduced today. I was like, Oh, I gotta figure out what I'm gonna do. He's like, don't really like, don't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I was like, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna pimp this as hard as I can cause this might never happen again. And it happened one other time. And I'll tell you what, pretty good little pop for the kid. Felt good. I don't think I could do that every game though. It's exhausting. I mean, it is exhausting coming out there. The whole run sprint thing. Did that, did you guys get intro'd a lot out there? Did that happen in Green Bay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Andrew Luck would do a straight sprint. It was like, it was kind of awesome, actually. It was like that pitcher that comes out of center field or whatever. That one guy who does... Luck would do a...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Luck would do a sprint, and it was actually kind of electric, to be honest. But there was then the times he had to come out with the, uh, military member.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it was always, you see Andrew like trying to figure out what he's going to do. Like, oh, I can't just leave them behind. So he like would jog next. It was kind of an interesting situation. But then there's some offensive linemen that do stuff. I don't mind a little TJ watt though. This is this is how we got to this TJ watt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Russ Belt loves old TJ. He's very young. He came out last in that, uh, Steelers Bills game. He was the last one introed and boy, it was JJ reincarnated over there and Pittsburgh was going ham for TJ water.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everybody does. Let's not just say Eric Ebron, but I think everybody does. What Detroit fans are saying is that they hated Eric Ebron. I didn't mind Eric Ebron with the Colts. I guess it ended bad though. It was an interesting ending. Nobody really has cleared up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know. There was a miscommunication between what Ebron said and what the cult said. It just ended weird, especially after coming from the lions, which ended weird.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Too fast. He might have the... Tommy on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He, by the way, he's been working out five days a week. Could have a brand new Ben Roethlisberger next year. So he's never worked out in the off season before until this year. Didn't need to. Might hurt him. Really?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe it'll help. Yeah, but why is he working out? He's been durable. He's had a lot of success on the field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now he gets Tommy John. He said he's working out. He's lighter than he's ever been. It's like, wait a minute, Big Ben.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the Ben that I literally know on a very close basis. That guy was unbelievable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's why I got real fat and then I got bad, you know what I mean? And then I had to work out and get healthy and I got better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was a big if it's not broke don't fix it guy. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would just live as if I was still in college still, like eating pizza wings and stuff like that, work hard out on the legs. And then I got a little bit heavy and then I didn't have a great year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, but there was years leading up until the final breaking point where I was a little bit overweight and everybody was like, you should work out. And I was even thinking like, maybe I should work out. But, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What if I suck and I get in good shape and I suck? I didn't want to jinx myself so I didn't do it. I just stayed fat. And then I stunk and then I got, it was a reset.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You never know. Have you ever seen a home run hitter that was skinny? No. The answer is no. I always thought the bigger my ass was, the better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's my thing. Aaron. Oh, speaking of standard McPhee and Hawkshow boys, here's a cup of Tebow motivation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bruh, I loved him to you. I-I-I cannot say this enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love everything that is Tim T. That is just that Tim Tebow. I'm a big fan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's bingo. Bingo. The most handsome baseball player ever. He can set the tone on how you wear your hat. Yeah, like a guy who's


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I wanted to ask you, do you hate this or love this for these couple things? First, Tampa Tommy officially signs with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this morning. Do you hate it or love it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And not just the South, by the way. I mean, I, I respect the hell out of our best friend Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers, but they got some things to figure out over there and I'm not sure they have yet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the San Francisco 49ers going back after losing the Super Bowl is very tough. The Patriots were able to do it, that's why the Patriots make no sense. It is very difficult to do that, to revamp at the bottom of the mountain, climb back up to the top again, but they have the roster to do so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Rams are self-imploding. The NFC seems like it's the old heads that potentially got a shot. Aaron, Tom, and Drew.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But boy, that Niners team could also be great. But this Tampa team, I think, is automatically, I love it as well. What do you got, Diggs?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your overall, the internet, Ohio, as is in Indiana, we got like six people on it with some, but you're 100% right, there, there will be people ring-chasing to get down there, that team, that roster's gonna be able to grow with people taking less money, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are not. We are all in on Studham. He is the king of Friday Night Lights in Texas. That was one article headline by Bleacher Report. Look it up. Read a book.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I came out, you know, and said that I didn't get along well with, uh, my former boss, right? And that, that caused- Who?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I'm not getting back into it. I've left him in the past. I've made a decision that we are past.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He and I did not get along, but I'm past it. Okay, we're past that. I've become past it. He's past it. He's got jobs. I've gotten plenty more jobs. I was named player the decade of my position. He was never named that yet, so I don't know if that's going to happen, but we are past that. Okay, that's neither that's either here nor there, but


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Michael Irvin releasing a story that I assume DeAndre Hopkins didn't know was going to get released when he told it to Michael Irvin. Still nonetheless, the story that's being released in


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People have said sounds to be legitimate, actually. And then this one from Darius Slay saying that, uh, Matt Patricia told him he was sucking on another man's crank. And, uh, that was an exact quote in a newspaper article, by the way, which was Wild Times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It just feels like you never know the context of these things that are being said, right? You never know the context of what's being said. You never know how it's being delivered. But boy, it's not a good sell whenever free agents are saying I'm not going to Houston because of Bill O'Brien and people are saying I'm not going to Detroit because they're the lions. No, I'm sorry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, you guys didn't deserve that. I mean, you didn't deserve that. I took a shot at you out of nowhere. You didn't deserve that. Okay, but it does feel like this is something that could potentially sway free agents. Don't you think so AJ?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who weren't exactly thrilled that D Lyman from their team were training with D Lyman from teams that they're going to play a couple of times, right? Because they're like, hey, who's team are we on here trying to teach the secrets of how to do this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I think this is just, so the old lineman had a summit then, right? So then the old lineman had a summit. And then now the D-line, O-line, the quarterbacks have a summit. It feels like all these kickers and punters work together. It feels like everybody feels as if they're in a fraternity and they work together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I assume that just by osmosis, there is information leaked to each other about their own teams. I think that just makes the most sense to me that it would happen just naturally as opposed to somebody like trying to tell them that it would just happen naturally. Am I wrong in thinking that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, then you're working, not working on film, you're working on technique more so then, you know, you can take more time to become a better on-field player instead of between the years because inside information's already getting leaked to you at these summits.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, here's something I wanna know if you love or hate. Uh, the mayor in Buffalo, uh, was pandering to his people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm a massive fan of that move. I like that the mayor


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Didn't know exactly what he was referring to, but somebody told him he should say this and it would be good. Whenever he says New England Patriots instead of dropping the New England Patriots, you could tell he doesn't talk about football on a very regular basis. But I like the fact that he was trying to appeal and enlighten his people in a topical, refreshing fashion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I agree. I wish they would do it for real though. Like the Pittsburgh mayor betting the Baltimore mayor like, hey, you know what? We'll pay your taxes for the next six months. Like let's put some real money on the line. Let's get those football teams out there and they're like, listen, we got to really bust our ass.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like let's, let's make it real. Like that's, if I see that, then I'm all in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's really good unless you bust your collarbone about 3am or something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was on a scooter and he hit a puddle, surprising enough, by the mayor and uh, bang, broke his collarbone, was out of commission for about three weeks, but he drank for the rest of the night, which is good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I feel like I'm a pretty, I'm a pretty good at balance person. And when I was on that, you know, I was pretty wide open.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I felt sometimes where I was like, oh, I'm gonna go down here. And then I just immediately thought of somebody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That, you know, is potentially older than me, maybe less athletic than I am. Not saying I'm the peak of athleticism, but you see some people that are a little bit less, they may be good with balance, just eating shit. And turns out that happened on a very regular basis. And I think that ultimately was their death as opposed to mayors want to clean up the sleep streets. I think we saw the scooter days are done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unless they're coming with, uh, Purell hand sanitizer on every fucking one of the- I had to get gas this morning, bro! Whoo!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did the shirt with the jacket on the thing. I did the thing, but then to flip the thing down to keep the thing. I had to get the other hand in. I was doing the thing. I should have came with gloves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I respect them too. I think we've done a great job with that. That's why I was very confused whenever YouTube shadow banned us this morning. But now I know it's because of a guy from Ohio just blowing through cigars in people's faces while on our YouTube. It's not your- I didn't know the rules either.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I agree with the title, but I don't, I don't know the YouTube rules. We do well on there. I don't fully understand why, but we'll just keep it going.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kids are teaching, uh, parents are having to teach their kids at home. This is a little like recess for them and they got this guy with this incredible jawline just blowing smoke in the little kids faces basically.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] CBD, man. CBD. Same here. Same here. Do you love this or hate this? This is the last one. This made a big round on the internet yesterday and I would like to hear what your thoughts were on it. Please run that thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They got a lot of time on their hands. No way. I get what they were trying to do though. I would like it to be done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you're in the same- anytime you're in the same conversation as Nick when it comes to hate- hatred, it's not great.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is it? I don't think I've ever heard the rich.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What song would, would it have to be for you to say yes to one of those videos AJ?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I watched the Jonas Brothers too, they came back together and they documented it all in Australia.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Me too. By the way, don't love saying that publicly. I don't think I've made it official proclamation publicly. I am a JoBro fanatic. I'm a JoBro fanatic after that documentary.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In turn, created microdosing for the rest of the world. That is an accurate statement.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And how was the shrimp cocktail after you went four and a half years of microdosing yourself and battling with an allergy to enjoy shrimp cocktail? How was it when you finally got a taste of that thing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, there was a stat found on Google yesterday by some of the boys in the office, most specifically Nick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Any other cocktail, or did you get the chance to taste it, or? Oh, I dipped it, yea, I dipped it in. Yea, you took a quarter of a shrimp and dipped it in a cocktail?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, Google has said though that people do just lose their allergies sometimes. Do you think that potentially happened or no?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Same with crab legs too, but I don't think the lobster tastes anywhere near as good as the crab legs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but it feels good when you get that son of a bitch clean. You know what I mean? When you catch that thing clean coming out and you feel it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just wasn't invited to those, I guess. This one's not going to be fun for McAfee to come to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's get him on the golf course. Let's get him at, uh, this cornhole one, maybe the bowling one. Any of the ones that have open bars, let's get McAfee too. These hoity-toity ones. Keep that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, by the way, that is very smart by the people. By the way, that's why I don't invite people to things because, you know, I don't like to feel like I'm intruding on them. You know what I mean? Are we ever gonna have a guest on the show?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, good. I'm happy. We'll clip that and send that to Bert and we'll say, hey Bert, just like we told you, AJ loves you. We're on your side there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jacobi Berset. And I said, we're live by the way, so expect whatever you tell me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To be announced to the people. He still has yet to respond.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you don't have the read receipts on, you have at least an out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Blowing them off right to their face. When you don't have the read receipts on, it's an obvious like, I think they saw it, but you can never be 100% sure with Foxy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Burt Crasher has texted me back, I want to call in and ask. Does he have his read receipts on him?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We go into the most beautiful place on the internet, the YouTube comment section, and we get questions from the abyss. Ladies and gentlemen, this Feel Good Friday, McAfee and Hawk Sports Talk The Pod Collab, March 20th. Now is time for a segment on this show called YouTube Questions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So what for, here's a question I got from the YouTube. AJ Hawk, would you ever, if you needed to, play football in the XFL? Ooh, I saw that one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you think more players will use the XFL and do you think it's good for football players if the XFL remains?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I agree. I don't know if it's going to, but I agree that it should last the long haul.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think Diggs is going to get a very important thing and then you guys just cuck this whole operation. Just a cuck job.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who? PJ Walker looked very good. Very good for that Houston team down there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, thank you! Stole him! Okay, well then how about- what's the number Burt's gonna call in?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Turns out he did not answer and went to his voicemail and said, and I was going to leave a good voicemail. Obviously, you have reached the voicemail box of.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Afterwards, after the show, uh, somebody with cooler head than me said, we just gave out his entire phone number. I was like, oh. So I had to text him. Uh, he had already received a few calls.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Um, Melvin Gordon agrees on a two year, $16 million deal with the Broncos. Okay. Gordon is now the fourth highest paid running back. His new deal puts him behind Zeke Leveon and David, David Johnson, two of the top three of the top four.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Running backs in the NFL all held out to get their deals.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have held out at some point during their contract negotiation. I don't like when people hold out. I think it's a very tough look for you. I think you never win PR wise in the end. But if you look at the numbers, it seems like it works for these running backs, even though they don't play their best football for a little bit after coming back. It feels like it's a good way to get some money there, Mr Hawkins.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's really good. Bert Kreischer's on the phone right now. Is he on right now?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is one of the most legendary electric humans in history. A man whose new special is out on Netflix called Hey Big Boy. I can't wait to watch it this weekend. It's been plans for me and my lady for the last four days.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You said something during a commercial break about our friend AJ. You said that he made a disparaging remark about you. And we said, no, no, AJ Hawk loves you. And you said, you're not 100% sure. And now that we have AJ Hawk here with you on the phone,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We would like AJ Hawk to make sure he solidifies the fact to you that he is a big fan of yours and the words are misconstrued.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, Bert, I can't fucking believe it. AJ Hawk leaving the machine off the invitation list for a great night out in Hollywood. Are you kidding me, Bert?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey Bert, uh, congrats on the incredible reviews of Hey Big Boy on Netflix. People fucking love it, dude.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, well I think it was like a 50 yarder and then him and Bill Burr got into an entire argument about it and now they've settled on a 33 yard field goal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He, a standard extra point that he has to make in front of an old crowd of people for a certain lucrative amount of cash. And you know what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think he can make from like 20s, 30. It's gonna be close. I've seen him kick a ball. Doesn't have a lot of explosive power, but I think he can work that up. He has the Mickey Mantle gene. I think there's a chance that ball goes through the uprights.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I get so nervous for these kickers nowadays. Like whenever they're jogging out there to kick a game winner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I've been a part of some of those like holding, right? And you don't even think about it obviously when you're in it. But when I'm watching at home, I'm like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That guy's life is ruined for at least the next week and a half or so. That guy's life is terrible. I, I don't know how I was ever a part of any of those situations. I honestly have no idea how I was ever... I don't, I don't got it anymore. I don't think I got it anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How about as kids friends? I just hope none of my kids are kickers. Well, I think that's probably pretty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like growing up in the hawk household with pistol and chopper as the grandfathers, I'm not 100% sure there's going to be any kickers over there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is pump passing kick alive or is it dead? I think that's dead. Play 60 now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Play, play, play a song that you're thinking about. Play the opening song for the pod. And these are Ohio kids, by the way, AJ, these are Ohio kids singing this song. And to be honest, I don't know how they don't have a bazillion dollar record deal because of how incredibly charming they are and how good they sing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is that not a heater right there? Those guys are from Ohio. Columbus, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, some people in the office don't like them because they got a little bit antsy in the timelines with making new songs for everything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, they were trying to, you know, uh, take advantage of their time. And, uh, I've always been a massive fan of theirs. Biggs has been a massive fan of theirs. Foxy's been a massive fan of theirs. Zito's been a massive fan of theirs. But boy, Connor, Ty, and Nick, very, very, very harsh critics of the Year of the Buffalo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're really good, but some guys are just so entitled they don't know when, uh, good music that is, uh, made specifically for them slaps them right in the face.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a disgusting place. They don't do laundry. There's rats. There's rodents. It's terrible. They're adults making very good money and they live as if they are still in college in a shithole house, right? Worst house on the block.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they have this pub, the pub versus everybody, because I've been telling them they need to move out of this place because at some point it's going to fall on itself and kill


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I decided to remix it a little bit, and I just want to let everybody know that although they're selling shitty shirts about their shitty house, the pub is very dead still.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You'll be kicked out of the house by the time this matters. They've already been kicked out of their house. They've been condemned by the people getting condemned. It's disgusting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're utilizing their power to probably do things to make themselves more money. But if I was told, and I said this about Martha Stewart,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you had money somewhere and you were told, if you don't do blah blah blah, you're gonna lose a hundred million dollars. What, what, what, what are you supposed?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I don't dabble in the stocks. I don't like investing in things that aren't real, which I believe stocks aren't real. I like to spend my money and see where it gets spent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have a little bit of compassion for old Martha when this happened to her because she was told like, hey, you're going to lose a lot of money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was a fun run. Like what are they, I don't understand what they're supposed to do. Like this Senator lady, I guess she's married to like maybe the CEO of the New York Stock Exchange or something like that too. So I mean, there's only, I mean, it's a deeper web and it's a terrible thing to be a part of. I would assume that a lot of bad things have been done by these people doing this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know what you're supposed to do. What are you supposed to sit there and say, well, fuck it, we lost, see you later, everything's gone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the way, I think that is, I would never get into the stock market. This is two times now in my professional life where people have lost basically everything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I understand that people have made a lot of money off it. I don't know them. I don't think I've ever met somebody that has. And I had no idea anybody that had been in stocks when I was growing up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I just, I don't know what they're supposed to do. I don't. If I'm sports gambling and I have a lot of money on a said team and I'm told


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That said team is not gonna field any starters this weekend. And I still have a cash out option. And I cash out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is everybody mad at me at that point? Is everybody mad at me or am I supposed to tell everybody else?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, but what I was told, it was a country club prison too. She didn't do hard time. No, no, no. Other people paid, she did not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Could you imagine being quarantined in the pub? I was just thinking about this. That would be potentially the worst place. Like, you know, those, uh, jails, the inmates in Brazil were just jogging out of the jail. They would do the same thing if they were told they had to stay in the pub instead of the jail, they would turn around and just start jogging out like in the whole crowd. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, there's windows. I regret that. By the way, is Fruit Ninja, uh, Master Phil? You remember Master Phil? You ever seen him?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He uses, uh, trusted butcher knives on, uh, a QVC light commercial where they're throwing fruits at him and he's fucking hi-yah! Tell him you don't know who Master Phil is. Come on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was supposed to be in the office today, but COVID-19, he couldn't travel out here, Master Phil.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now we rescheduled, obviously, we rescheduled for later on down the road, which is going to happen, I mean, but Master Phil, I think...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was bummed when I heard he wasn't going to make it through the coronavirus vaccine quarantine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's right. I actually used to lead off my stand-up comedy sets with a magic trick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I used to walk out and do the, uh, disappearing, uh, handkerchief. It was my first thing. People would be like clapping, right? And I just wouldn't say a word and I just whipped that thing out and I started doing it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The reaction from my drunk fans was just fucking electric. I mean, I've, when that thing disappeared, it was like how the boys react whenever you say something positive and a motivation. The place was like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess it wasn't meant to be. I showed back up on Raw and it was time to kind of finish what I started 10 years prior and finally get that WWE title shot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He never showed up for a few weeks. He finally shows up on Raw. I'm not there. Brock's annoyed. Paul Heyman talks a big game. The following week, the last Raw before main, Andrew's gotta be there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Brock shows up for two weeks in a row. He's ready to get his hands on Drew McIntyre. Drew McIntyre, Drew McIntyre's nowhere to be seen, because ain't my first day. I can play a little mind games too, and he's not going to see me until WrestleMania. And I made Brock show up to work two weeks in a row. So that's why I'm the Miracle Man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And just, eh, I guess a lot of companies trusting me to be the face of the company and a franchise player, I inevitably learned to be a top guy in about six different places in six different countries.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'm just used to living this lifestyle, keeping myself in shape, getting to the gym.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, I tried the art and asked Roman Reigns, their head got split wide open by Brock's elbow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yea, we can get him to facetime in for the show. Last time we didn't have the capabilities.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What are you gonna ask? Why? What are you gonna ask? He had a really rough draft day. I talked to him about it yesterday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what's going to be kind of weird is guys getting drafted a lot of times, especially the high picks, maybe in the first 10, they get drafted and some of the teams send a private plane and they fly them there to the facility. A lot of these guys are going to get drafted and they're not going to step foot in the facility of their team for months after possibly. Can they do that? Do what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just pictures of the owner, like owners signed pictures, 8x10s.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The one guy that the drug overlore, they didn't even really go into too much on him because they couldn't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, he would only limit his access to what he would talk about. I'll talk about the guy down in Miami. Yeaah, the one in Miami.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was a, he was a beat writer in Green Bay for a long time, but he left, right? Where's he working now? He's with the athletic. But is he still with Green Bay? Is he still in Green Bay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, maybe yeaah. You know what I mean? If you're, if you're viewing, uh, LeFleur and Goody, if say you're viewing Goody as like the Jerry Krause character from the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you think Goody has that personality, which I don't know if he does or not, thinking like, okay, until as long as Aaron is here, yeah, we may win a lot of games, but Aaron's going to get the credit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, and Aaron saying that, like, hey, we, we want to go. We have a window open here. I still feel really good. Oh, and by the way, we were one game away from the Superbowl last year. Like we don't need to rebuild. We need to plug a few pieces in place.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe draft a receiver or two, didn't get any. I know you brought in funches. That's a start, but you could have, you had the opportunity to make your team better in the short term and I just don't think they did that through the draft.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anybody, anybody would be furious about it, and I think Andrew Brant said it on your show yesterday, that package fans are spoiled. They've had a franchise Hall of Fame quarterback for the last 30 years. You went from Brett Favre straight to Aaron Rodgers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, that's some big shoes to fill for Jordan Love if he is eventually gonna be that next guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, I don't know, even if, let's say three or four years from now Jordan Love takes over and his fourth year in the league they win a Super Bowl, then do you look back that far down the road like, see, we were justified, like, well, no, because you had Aaron for another three or four years and you could have won another Super Bowl and you probably didn't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Broncos pick us in. Who they got? Uh, wide receiver Jerry Judy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So either the Raiders think that Saban and Tua and everybody at Alabama are stupid or they think that they found something in him. Jerry Judy was a hell of a player. I thought for sure he was going to be the number one wide receiver off the board. But now the Denver Broncos with Drew Lock at the helm have found another weapon. This guy's a stud and I think he's going to transition very well into the NFL.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, of course. Uh, John Elway. John Elway, that man right there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This one's for Pat. Thank you, John. I appreciate you doing that for me. His dive into the end zone getting twisted around is a legendary play. Him at quarterback is legendary. Him giving the keys over to Peyton Manning and just kind of letting them do their thing awesome. But since then, you're 100% right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so this guy has been through some things. This guy got straight A's the same year his sister passed away. This is a mentally tough guy and in Alabama had a hell of a career. This feels like a guy, by the way, that Gruden would have taken.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This feels like a guy who is, who would have fit in with the Raiders, but instead now the Broncos take him. Maybe he'll be able to light up that division that seems to be kind of following.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now that I'm drunk and they got the Chiefs there. That's, that's a tough division. That is a tough tough division.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think if you look at my mock draft, I did know that. I mean, don't let this year's mock draft affect how my previous mock drafts have gone. Uh, I did know that. I like this kid a lot, strictly because his, his, the Pizza Hut right there, that is not just sitting there as a commercial. It looks like that has been tapped into a little bit. I respect that from him. And, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And is an absolute animal. He, I thought he was the first guy. Why was he not the first guy?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look good, feel good, feel good, play good. Play good, pay good, pay good, live good, live good, die good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sound like you did. Is there glass on the floor? I know when you were out on the Browns. When? Is when they, I believe ran a draw on fourth and nine maybe? Yea. Or a draw on...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh nothing, just, just taking care of some rappers and trash and such. You called me early. I'm so used to starting, you calling me after one o'clock, you call me at like 12.58, so it's good. It's good to see your punctual, Pat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I clean up everything as I go, but no, I was just unwrapping a few. For some reason they send cigars in plastic wrapping. I just, I don't like it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I just, I, I rise to the moment, Pat. I knew it was going to be a, it was a, there was a big build up the week leading up to the draft. I was excited. So I wanted to be here for all the people that tune in and watch the show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did, I was so invested into the show and into the draft, I was just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was in the lab, I was just going around trying to figure out what these teams are doing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a weird argument to say, did you get better? Did you get worse? Now you could say, oh, hey, we may have not gotten better in the present day right now for our team this upcoming year, but did we do things to get better in the future? Yeah, maybe. We don't know. That's still a wild card. Who knows? We don't know what Jordan love is going to be, but what you, I think the message that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You put across whether you wanted that message out there or not. It makes it look like the Packers are trying to rebuild and have like a rebuilding process. One of my key.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know they went to the NFC Championship game, right? Like they were one game away from the Super Bowl. They had a trade up from 30.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, your connection was a bit weird, so I thought for the viewers, if I dropped off and we reconnected, maybe it would be a better connection. Oh, you were fine over here. I know you were not fine over here. Yeah, but I think ours is probably the one that's going out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know, that's why I didn't want to hang up the whole call. I didn't want you to hang up. I thought maybe this will help it out. And now you're, you're much clearer right now. Oh, I respect it. Here we go. We were lagging this morning too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It feels that way, and the question is, okay, best case scenario to see what Jordan Love is, if he could potentially be the next franchise QB in Green Bay. What, best case scenario for them? Two, three years down the road? I mean, Aaron's still under contract, you're gonna have to find a way, I don't get it, if Aaron's still playing at a super high level, which I would expect him to do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, we gotta pay a guy, we're gonna, we're gonna have to go to a second contract with Jordan Love before we've really seen what he can do on the field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought it was good. People were, were definitely, uh, excited to see them show like the, the Pistons-Bowls rivalry. And then we, we got to see how the Bowls kind of overtake, took them and became the next hot thing. That's cool, man. I like it. I, I like the whole documentary series. What we have, we're four parts through of 10. So there's six more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Going to Vegas mid season. He needed a vacation. I need a vacation. I want some more details though. So then Jordan pops on and says, well, yeah, of course he wasn't on time. So Jordan has to go to Vegas, get him out of his hotel room. Where was the team during all of this? They're probably traveling for a


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Isn't it impressive how Phil Jackson kind of massages his relationship with Dennis? Like he, he can be the, the parental type, like he's hard on him, makes sure he does what he, he does his job and does everything, but then he,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He like takes himself out of the equation and he's like, hey, Dennis is like a free spirit, man. You gotta, we gotta let him go. Like, what is the whole thing? You gotta, if you love someone, you gotta let him go to come back to you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, do you think, how do you think he looks when he's sitting down in his awesome house drinking whatever kind of whiskey, bourbon, I don't know what he's drinking and he has a cigar the whole time?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Aren't you always trying to figure out how many times he refilled that glass?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What was fun was watching them, they were partying after they won the Eastern Conference Finals, so they were-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know if you're being serious or not. I'm dead serious. No, they were very strict about things. Oh my god. They used to, I used to talk to the trainers back, I don't know, probably


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah it is, I, I, guys would, obviously guys could find a way at times to sneak a bottle in or something, but it was never like a whole group effort, no one could ever get enough stuff on for that to happen. It just wasn't, like we had a good time, it was fun, guys are gambling, there's bluetooth speakers and everything, but nah, it was nothing like what you're talking about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Trent Williams is an absolute monster. I think he's a stud. He obviously did whatever he could to get out of Washington. It would have made sense if Green Bay could have found a way to bring him in. You lose Brian Balaga out to the Rams. Your left tackle is solidified and Bakhtiari is an absolute stud out there. If you could put, well, would Trent want to play on the right though? I'm sure he could.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, if you are Trent Williams and you have played at such a high level for so long, he 100% I think can step right back into it and be the same guy he has been as long as he's healthy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know what weight you're at right now, but if I have a 225 pound tackle, I think everything might start with a bull rush on you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are you always gonna punch like on that third kick? Because they're gonna time that up and chop your hands right away.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Terrible job. You could have held your dude for five and a half seconds, but your quarterback is back there running around like an idiot, not getting rid of the ball. One time, see ya, you're not getting that monster contract, you may not even have a job. What a terrible job.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Hey, you know, the first, the first celebrity couple that, uh, I think started that train rolling was Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well Kogan, he and his wife split up. No chance. They got no chance. Ozzy Osborne. Ozzy's going strong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I think they had real problems, and they got back together. He got busted multiple times, but Sharon sticks with him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh hey, I don't know, I was going to be worried because Zito wasn't here on Friday, I believe. Cable. Cable guy came. He had to sit at the house between 9am to midnight window. Did he end up getting cable?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right now too, like right now you're moving, that seems very difficult.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nah, I'm good. You guys are so good at singing. I don't even want to dip my toe into the water there. Well, well, I think you


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I think it's a good move for them and I, I see Jameis Winston's getting kind of praised from, from different places for doing this move because he said he, he turned down more money from somewhere else, but he wants to go learn from Sean Payton, Drew Brees. He's probably hoping to go in there, maybe get some reps in the, in some game action. I guess, I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If they're blowing people out or unfortunately if Drew goes down like he did last year and kind of do it in his career what Teddy Bridgewater did. I mean you're on the Teddy Bridgewater plan. Step in for four games or something, play well, sign a nice big deal and go become a starter again. Or stay in New Orleans and become their starter if Drew decides to go to NBC next year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's say Linda, his girlfriend for a long time, brings home a dog and the dog's just taking dumps on Bill's bed. Bill rolls out of bed at 315 in the morning to go in the facility, steps in these little mushy turds from Nike, then Nike jumps in and takes his spot on the pillow. You really think that dog would make it for more than 12 hours inside that house if he wasn't disciplined?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, so, I mean, whatever Roger, so he announced every pick though, right? He didn't tap in a reliever?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, whatever Roger did, if Roger came across more relatable to the American viewing public, awesome. Good for Roger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, is that why he couldn't ever just say this is where I watch football. I had to say many times, this is where I watch NFL football, which I've never heard anybody ever say multiple times. I can't wait to watch NFL football on Sunday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So what's gonna happen? Are they gonna somehow claim that Portnoy didn't win?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or it's just not going to happen, or like, Raj is going to have to come out of his own bank account making 40 mil a year and be like, oh, the winner paid $480,000 to come watch football with me and then they have some


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some plant come in there and show that this is what we did. Oh yea, look how much money we raised, as Portnoy is just raising a stink on the internet if they don't let him in there. It is a genius move by him. Genius.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you- It's not gonna happen. They won't- I mean, he's gonna keep fighting, but man, is there any way that that actually happens at Portnoy's down there with Raj?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He did eat the M&M's. It's your commissioner, Pat. He won the, he won the weekend.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's it gonna do for me? Adam Silver, whenever he talks, you should probably listen. Adam Silver seems to be the most self-aware guy that is like forward thinking when it comes to the NBA. Okay, so that's your commissioner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everyone just stopped. A lot of money on the line. I guess I can kinda understand why they stayed away from it. But if you're gonna take a stand for one thing, you should, you know, shouldn't you take a stand for everything?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're opening up some of their practice facilities in certain areas for just small groups of guys I guess to go in and get some work and get some rehab.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are the colts? You can go work on that pass set once the colts place opens up again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, if I saw you do that, like if we were walking on the street and you just popped up out of nowhere and we're pass settin', I would take off on a dead sprint and hopefully you would backpedal, try to keep up, cause you wanted to keep up the whole, your perfect pass sets, and I would just sprint, I wouldn't touch you, I'd make no contact, and I would veer, veer, veer, bam, and run you smack into like a phone pole.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, by the way, that is the right move. I'm not getting sued for that. I can't, it's not assault for me. I was just taking a jog. You didn't even know I was there to be honest with you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I didn't know he, I didn't hear that he came out and said he regrets that decision that much. But those, I mean, Foxy I guess, no, Foxy's a Detroit guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Pistons were, everyone loved them. They were your team. They were going to beat up on everybody else. But then everyone else around them despises that team that the Pistons had. I thought it was great. I thought it was fun. The bad boys, whatever. I didn't really get to see them in the run. I always see highlights looking back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you mention guys like that, uhm, you know, I was always aware of that. Like, I always loved Richie and his craziness. I thought he, in the moment, I'm like, man, like, alright, you gotta make sure you watch out. You don't know where this guy's coming from. He's not, he's not gonna, he's gonna finish through the whistle. Uh, Rayola, the center in Detroit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of those guys, but I always respected how hard he played. And so I always loved it. I could kinda see like, alright.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This guy, it sucks playing against him, I understand, but you know what? If he was on my team, he'd be our best friend. Like, I knew in the moment. So then you could kinda have that respect, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know if it's a relief, it's kinda fun sometimes. A lot of times you'll be watching-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like the whole defense, you'll be watching and a coach will be presenting like, okay, this is their second and medium. This is our plan. And he'll say, all right, now, hey, watch out for whatever. We'll get 54. Don't be standing around a pile. Don't be messing around because this guy will get you. He may go low. He may go high. Don't be standing around ever. And it kind of keeps everybody gets them keyed up. And then it causes more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At least you're headhunting. I respected guys that were dirty when they would headhunt. I didn't respect when guys were dirty and they'd go after your knees.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It has kind of died down. Yeah, you talk to any receiver, they hate that. They hate like catching a ball, say there's a receiver or a DB kind of draped on them, safety's coming over the top.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Going low from like the second he catches the ball, they're going, I mean Gronk is a prime example. Gronk is so damn big, you can't, if you want to tackle him up high, like in the strike zone with his torso, good luck getting him down first off. So they all, he'll have a guy underneath and a safety over top.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Chopping his knees instantly, like that's dangerous. When you're trying to catch a ball, your foot is just planting and someone's going after your knee. That's where you tear ACLs, that's where you tear all the ligaments in your knee or...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Worst case, or best case scenario is like, oh I just got a bone bruise on my knee that's gonna hurt for the next nine months.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, we got what? 10 weeks left in this season? You'll be good to go by the beginning of next year. Cool, cool. So I'll just play through it. Cool. Sounds good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He'll be professional with it, I'm sure, but don't you think they, they set themselves up in the front office there in Green Bay to have a situation like Jerry Krause with the Chicago Bulls and how they treated him?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's actually, it's worse than like, so you say it's a mobile offensive lineman, you're absolutely right. But it's an offensive lineman with a running start, so you have these high impact collisions. Like offensive lineman, yea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Those collisions are every single play, but they're, they have one or two steps. Imagine if you have five or six yards every time for a collision. And by the way, if you're Devlin, if you're a fullback, you've got to play on all the special teams too. So you're running down blasting your skull with a 50 yard head start many times during the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nah, the key is that old helmet. Gotta get those old heavy helmets. Get rid of these new age, super light, terrible looking things with the chin straps that don't come off that are like zippers. Yeah, that's the key.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But who's it for? Is it strictly for guys that are playing combat sports or is it for a regular person?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just chew on tough steak four times a day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pat, were you, uh, I hate to derail this riveting conversation, but were you surprised that Philly drafted Jalen Hurts in the second round?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So he's super young. So I guess if you're saying, all right, hey Jalen, you're going to come in, we might get you a small package early on in your career and then we want you to be a career backup for Carson Wentz. Like is that the plan? Is that what they envisioned from him? Carson Wentz, they paid him a hundred million dollars too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's, yeah, there's, I don't know. Like, and if you're the quarterback, Drew Brees, there's, he handles it beautifully.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But there's no way he likes coming out of the game when Tayson Hill comes in. Like if you're a quarterback, there's nothing more. Like you need to be, have the rhythm. You need to get a feel for the game. So to come in and out and not really, you're not really sure when you're going to be coming in and out too. That's another very difficult thing. I think, especially at the quarterback position.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gotta trust the board, gotta trust the best available.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you'd have to be. I don't, I have no idea. I wonder what he feels like, what it's gonna be like. And also, we have all this time to where, excuse me, you can't. You alright?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had to quarantine down this basement. That would suck. You know how bad that would be if you got it and you had like, what would I do? I would stay in one room in my house. Is that what happens?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is that, do, yea, 14 days, do you think that maybe you, like, you may manufacture a cough sometimes when you just need some alone time? No.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Imagine when they first go back to facilities and if they let the media in for open locker room that day, can you imagine the scrum around A-Rod and Jordan Love and their lockers are probably going to be close to each other?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are you, are you can, are you, do you still need to go on about Goodell? You haven't got it all out of your system yet?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause they're serving their suspension still this year either way. Oh, and there's gonna be no baseball. No baseball and they get away scott free.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, baseball's in a weird spot, man. They really are. With the whole, I almost forgot about with all the, the draft happening, I almost forgot about the whole scandal that happened last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If he does die, I know people are worried that his sister's gonna take over, right? And they say she is a scary individual.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yup, she is. Even if he does die though, do you think they'll ever announce that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jose Baez, who also represented Aaron Hernandez in his second murder trial and got him off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, I heard there, it got me thinking when you mentioned Nancy Grace. Haven't heard that name in a while. Isn't there somebody there that, is Nancy Grace in studio with you today?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Casey Anthony, I mean, she's got a... It's probably difficult to...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not sure what's going on in the world. Now the draft happened. What do all these coaches do? They were preparing for this draft. They're doing all this stuff. Now they have these virtual meetings they're doing. Like what do they do other than when they're not having these virtual meetings where they get nothing done?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hopefully for Cliff too, he can win. I know, did you see the meme? Like they show he and Belichick and it says like, what? How many rings does Belichick have? Nine? Counting his time as a D coordinator too, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not there in Seattle? Belichick, that's like his vacation house in Nantucket that he's drafting from.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, look back at the picture from I think the 05 draft when Aaron was there. There's a picture of all the guys invited to the draft. There might be seven or eight of them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I think they're going to go back to what they were doing before. Like look how many people they jammed the streets when they started taking the draft on the road. It's been such a gigantic success for the NFL to spread the game and all the whatever. Next year it's in Cleveland. And then does it come back to Vegas the year after that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, you're right, I've seen that room. It is not large at all. Connor's just, just brewing farts in there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've never heard, I don't think that works. No it does. It does. It does. And then when do you release it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know why there's smoke. Are you surprised the virtual draft said it had 55 million viewers?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you think it was that or do you think it was a calculated move because?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know ESPN at times back in the day has gotten upset and they've gone back and forth if guys, if employees should take like political stances when people try to say things politically and they say


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Keep the sports basically. Maybe this is another way of trying to say like, hey, look at us. We're, we're not some dictatorship. You can do whatever you want.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a very hard, a lot of hard words, so, uh, bear with me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ask the guys if they think the career longevity should positively or negatively affect a player's legacy or not at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The hardest Tom Brady will ever go at anybody in this writing. And it doesn't, obviously you gotta kinda read between the lines, but yea, it makes sense what he's saying. When he says, he wants someone to hear say go man to him, like he wants some encouragement, he wants some excitement around him instead of people just knocking him down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I agree. They should be really, really good. I don't know if they're good enough to make a run at the Super Bowl. We'll see. But man. Me neither.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean I think they're gonna be very, very good. I just don't know if they're gonna get back to the Super Bowl. I mean that's a lot. A lot has to happen. A lot of things have to fall in the right place for that to happen.

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, this is exactly what everyone's been saying for the longest time, that Joe is, he's the far and away number one pick. I thought it was a no-brainer, absolutely, but sometimes when things seem so, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well I think too with the bangles are kind of covered too on the, on the back end. If Joe Burrow something happens, he gets hurt or he's not the guy that people...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's not the guy he was in college. I still feel like you can't come back and be like, oh, the Bengals were wrong for taking Joe Burrow number one overall. You can't say that. I guess you could, but you could at least go back and say, hey, I understand why they made this pick after watching what he did his last year at LSU.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It sure, it should be, I mean, they hope, they hope to, to, to, that he is that guy, I guess, but man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They need some help other than just Joe Burrow. I mean, Joe needs some help. They have plenty of players around him, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look how bad they were last year. I understand they lost a lot of very, very close football games though. So their record, I guess they are definitely better than what their record showed last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I agree, most common sense, but there was a lot of people coming out and saying that he would not be open to being a backup. That's why the conversation was should he sit out a year instead of being a backup quarterback. So I think that's why it's potentially news because there's


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 58 days here without any live sports in America, so that's why it's news. It's Cam Newton and all that shit. But then a lot of the narrative started spinning that he shouldn't go to a place to be a backup. He should rather sit out. And I like that Ian Rappaport was definitely getting his information from directly from Cam Newton because in the tweet,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me let y'all motherfuckers know, I am on this guy's side, a starter, but he's open to being a backup. Where would be a good place for him to be a backup quarterback? You gotta have a strong starting quarterback, don't you think?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think all of Pittsburgh was expecting that and hoping that with Jameis Winston, that's why the report when it came out from a Bucks Beat reporter, whatever he was, a blog hit him, Nick Citro, that Jameis Winston turned down another offer from the Pittsburgh Steelers to go to the New Orleans Saints


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For a one year, one point one million dollar deal became such big news because the Pittsburgh Steelers had to come out and say, we have negotiated no deals with any other veteran quarterbacks and they've always said that they're sold on Mason Rudolph being their backup quarterback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's much to the chagrin of the entire city and its fan base saying we are not 100% sold on Mason Rudolph.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So whenever the thought that Jameis was potentially going to be a Steeler, I think a lot of Pittsburgh Steeler fans were happy with this. I might be speaking out of pocket, but I think that's accurate. If Cam Newton was to come in there now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The thing that was said was why would you want to piss off Ben Roethlisberger by bringing in a guy that could potentially compete for his starting job if he struggles a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe they thought that that could potentially rub Ben Roethlisberger the wrong way when they brought in Ben Roethlisberger's offensive coordinator. They got rid of anybody who has problems with Ben Roethlisberger. It feels like the Steelers are mounting up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For, uh, around Ben Roethlisberger run that they had hoped to do last year, this year. But if he gets hurt, which inevitably normally happens, they have to rely once again on Mason Rudolph. And if he gets hit in the head with his own helmet and throw some picks,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I think what's happening inside the organization is we don't want to piss off Ben, and this is Ben's run. Am I wrong in saying everything that you've heard as a Steelers fan?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think Cam Newton should be on a roster, just like a parentheses and should be a starter. Like I honestly feel that in Pittsburgh seems like the right situation, especially whenever it comes from like a smart, like, hey, we need a guy, especially what we saw last year. But I think their big thing is we don't want to piss off Ben at all. Let's give him an opportunity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With all, everything on the table for Ben, which by the way, I think a lot of Packers fans wish that the Green Bay Packers would done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Great question. And I think a lot of people would say the reason why the Steelers didn't make the playoffs last year is because they didn't have a backup quarterback. Right? I think just like the Packers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we, then I would go back to my thing, like, why didn't they make the Super Bowl last year? Why did they lose? Well, they didn't address that at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Steelers would be addressing the exact reason why they weren't able to win last year if they were bringing a backup quarterback, which is something you have to think about, but I would assume Colbert and Tomlin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No Ben at this point. And they're like, listen, our job could be to look forward to the future, but I think we got a team right now that we can win with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's get our guy in here and make him feel good. I'm not saying it's right or wrong because if Ben doesn't


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You gotta hope, I guess, that Mason Rudolph has figured it out in one offseason dating bachelor stars and then you gotta hope that that goes on or maybe you think that Cam Newton could still be on the street and bring him in. I don't know what you do, but that could be an evolving issue there if they don't sign Cam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That you go as your quarterback goes. And I, by the way, I don't blame Colbert and Tomlin for be, if they decide not to bring in Cam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just strictly for being like, ah, let's not piss off. Let's just not do it. Let's just, let's just see if we can win and then we'll build for the future. But Cam Newton, the timing of his release, the quarantine of his release, everything, it's going to be something we talk about for years to come and eventually what happens the same with Jamis. It's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's not a, it's not a good time to sign a franchise quarterback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, sounds like he may be the smartest guy on the planet. When he, like, how do you decipher between good and evil spirits? And when do you know? Like, do you know right as they present themselves or do they take some time to vet them?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, you guys are also calling him guy and man. He could be a dog. He might be a dinosaur.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can you cultivate enough of this to where when a bad spirit comes your way, I can direct it towards somebody else. Like, not just get away from me, but I want to point it right at somebody that I want to go to.
