[Assistant] Chopper's a legend. That bike he hopped on, he had a big back wheel on it, I mean it was...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That thing was like no helmet, obviously. He's a wild hog. Yeah. He's chopper. He's chopper bopper pistol. We didn't know. No, we could book him. One of the best sales executives in the history of Ohio. It didn't even know that was possible. Uh, here's a question, uh, from Germany, super, uh, SETI.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so if we're gonna do this, let's at least put a question mark at the end of that thing. Uh, are YouTube comments allowed to attend the wedding virtually, virtually as dynamite laser?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'd assume she's again, I don't know, actually, to be honest with you, now that the dress has been ruined, I mean, like everything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Time to buy in. I mean everything has been abs- this poor girl, I mean honestly, I assume that the wedding


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, I've been dreaming about my wedding day since I was a child. Since I was just a little baby boomstick boy. Yeaah. I'm like, my wedding day is going to be perfect.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think my dreams of my wedding, which were obviously every single day I thought about until Nick, you remember those days back whenever I would talk in college.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Obviously, these are my dreams. But hers, you know, she's put a little bit more into the dreams and thoughts and preparation and planning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then a worldwide pandemic happens and then FedEx comes in and just bitch laps your dress. I mean, there's just hurl. I feel so bad for, for say, I honestly feel terrible for Sam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I do. I feel absolutely terrible. Tease and peace. Tease and peace for Sam's emotions while


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The romance of this wedding thing is just getting blindsided by things that she can't control.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, did, uh, do people have to sing in your training camp team meetings?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I had to sing, uh, West Virginia's fight song, and then it, it,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It kind of, in a very favorable fashion, kind of turned into people singing actual songs as opposed to their alma mater's fight song. Cause that was just, that was just terrible, you know, cause nobody knows the fight song.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unless you went to the school and were forced to know the fight song, you know? So there's no sing-alongs. Whenever the songs came through, I was a big fan of that move. I forget what year it was, but boy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I go, it's very easy. Very, very easy. Okay. You just go, ain't no mountain high, which is a little bit of energy. And then everybody will sing the song for you. You don't have to do anything. Some of those people go up there and it'd be like, all right, this is song.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had one guy that didn't listen to me and went up there and thought he was going to sing a song because he was a good singer. Got booed out of the fucking camp. Guy got cut the next day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think the reason why I am not very scared to do stand up comedy or speak in front of anybody, if you can speak in front of an NFL locker room or an NFL team, I think you're set up forever. It is not an easy, it is not an easy thing to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then those outside speakers come in and they might be successful, but they don't have as much money as about, I don't know, three quarters of the room. So you're not as successful as three quarters of the room feels.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bro, that D line, when the D line, if it just so happened to be a Caucasian speaker and he came just a little bit soft early, right? And they couldn't hear him in the back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We had a Navy SEAL come in and do well. He's a bigger guy. I'm sure you heard him talk before. He was doing the rounds, I think. Who? He was a big tribe guy. Know your why. I forget his name. Robert O'Neil?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was, it was another guy. He came and gave a speech. Pretty good. Country boy, though. Looked like, uh, like a three technique. He was, uh, and he was a Navy SEAL, right? So that was...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think a lot of the people were just intrigued on our team were just intrigued about how this big ass dude survived buds. Like that was all the questions were like, how did you at your weight? Like a lot of big guys were like, how did you get through? Cause he was a bigger guy, you know, he was like, well, it was kind of difficult, you know, he did a good speech and also ET, the hip hop preacher, you know, that is


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, yeah, yeah. Eric thomas came in and spoke. He stole the show. I mean the room.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the basement. He goes back, he goes, in the basement. It was just like, uh, me and Vinny Terry were absolutely loving. I mean, it was, those were magical moments. I'm happy we just took a little trip down memory lane there. I, the, the one guy, I forget his name.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He gave it a go for us too at training camp. He gave it a go, you know. Is this him right here? Nope, that was not the guy. Everybody in the comments says it's Jocko. I feel like they're, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We caught him before he got bit. He was good though. He had cowboy boots on. I mean this dude played no games when he was talking. He was a bigger guy. So all the dudes were like, this guy's awesome.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No. Who is it? That was not him. That was not him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you ever see the knife commercial? Uh, where, uh- Did you see me lose my mind to that knife commercial that one day?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's a legend. He is electric and a legend as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He might not have been able to win every single game and he might have made some questionable decisions and people are like why'd he do that? Chuck Pagano in those team meetings brought it every single day and I appreciate it. I mean we had a new story.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did I ever tell you a story about- I mean, that guy was amazing. He was absolutely- He'll get paid money to speak someday, I think, in a hilarious fashion to corporate businesses. It was good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, he never, he never told me that, but Chuck Magano is the best. I think he would. Uh, let's get one more question in here before we get the hell out of here. Uh, Pat, who is your favorite lineman of all time?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, AK Shipley. How about you AJ? Who's your favorite lineman of all time?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like them a lot. He's good to have as a show guest. He's that chair. He was sitting in a chair today that your wife designed his whole house. Is that accurate? Yeah. Yeah. The chair was a go. I would like to heads up on that chair where she's


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, he lost 48 pounds since, uh, last year or something like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you also, you know, lived a lifestyle of healthy and fitness. Maybe, maybe you should compliment that instead of just a haircut saying that's why he looks skinnier.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He said the fans weren't, the Packers people were not happy about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I thought so too. I wonder why the Packers people are mad. Is it because the beer got on Lambo? Is that the biggest deal?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With two K's. It says AJ Hawk was a monster man. Missed this guy. One of my favorites to watch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's what he does. That's what AJ does. He gets zero courtesy in any of these big time journalistic places. He doesn't care. He doesn't do it. He just got complimented.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, it's not! No, it's not! They said Pat McAfee Show. Pat McAfee Show!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the Owl, right, already has enough. We're trying to build this new show, McAfee and Hawk Sports Talk. We need, we need to get as much traction as possible so people know where the goods come from, and they just refuse


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Excuse me, are you trying to give me COVID-19? Uhm. No, he's clean. He's good. The commenters want to know if you were ever jealous of Clay Matthew's hair.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Would you like to tease a little bit more pal? And let us know, uh, maybe who did what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, all celebrities are like this big too. They're all like, they're all just little people. They're all little tiny people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think we're both under the impression, Todd and I, uhm, in our contract that March 30 was to be the date and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you know, that other team will have to pay it. Um, you know, there's also some confusion on the start of the calendar or, you know, the football calendar year because we both, uh, were released on the same day. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you know, it's money we're due, but once, you know, and my agent has been handling it, um, but once Todd tweeted that out, I had to piggyback on that. I thought it was just, it was too good. So, uh, yeah, I mean, you know, it's, it's money that's due, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I think in the contract, uh, we were expecting on one day and it, it,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's just coming a little late, but it's funny to read some of the comments, cause


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everybody thinks we're tone deaf with all that's going on in the world currently, but I mean, this is, this is money that's owed for, you know, services rendered that we agreed to, you know, in a contractual agreement. So that's all we're asking for. It's not like we're, you know, we're.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, uh, you know, hey, why don't you give him a link? I'm sure you could put a link, uh, up here somewhere like that. Uh, I just, you know, I don't know if that's, uh, it's up there. It's up there. It's not what it's called though. So, uh, maybe you should ask him. Have him call in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, well, I mean, just to be completely forthright, I was, you know, I was kind of, uh, I was shocked when I was released. I felt like I, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it's be exceeded, uh, the Rams expectations of, of, you know, the player they were getting as well as, um, you know, my contractual.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The contract in which they gave me, thought I, uh, you know, exceeded that and... So it kinda caught me, uhm, by surprise. Uhm, but obviously I know...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I still want to play. I've been in, you know, contact with a number of teams and, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, like you had mentioned, obviously with a guy, you know, who's been in the league as long as I have, uh, most in free agency, the run is usually made on those guys in their second contract, uh, you know, middle,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, hopefully there's a team out there, you know, a winning team that, that needs somebody of my caliber to come in and.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do what I do and hopefully get him over the hump. So right now we're just playing the waiting game and, you know, like you had mentioned, there's, you know, I'm not, you're not in a rush with everything that's going on. I mean, obviously.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Offseason program is going to be cancelled and we don't even know it's about the start of the season. So we're just hanging tight, just like everybody else and playing it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, play it by ear, so we'll see what happens, but I can still play. You know, I still wanna play, and uhm, you know, we'll see what that means, or where that means.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm, you know, I'm not sure. Uhm, you know, I think if I really wanted to and I was, you know, desperate to join a team for, you know, a,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what I deserve, and I'm sure I could have done that already, but I think ultimately, you know, at this point in my career, we want to find a team that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Um, cause this is obviously, uh, you know, I actually went through this last year when, uh, I was done with the Packers, but, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, like I said, when a team reassesses their need and go, hey, we can, you know, that we can plug this guy in and he'll make our team better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Joe Burrow. How do you feel about this move AJ Hawk?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Miami Dolphins seem to be very aggressive in free agency. They bring Kyle Van Noy down. They bring in a corner they paid a lot for. B-Flo wouldn't let them lose last year. Ryan Fitzpatrick is their quarterback. Let's not forget that Fitzmagical win you some games out of Harvard. Them potentially moving up to number one to get Joe Burrow. Right move, wrong move, your eyes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You'd have to unload, hon, to get up there. You think the Cincinnati Bengals, Mr. Braun, who is a notoriously good businessman.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You think he is going to expect at least all, you think they're going to take all those picks to get the number one or do you think maybe four of those six or?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Half of those top six, or a future one, you think? Like, what do you think? The last time this happened, in my eyes, and now I might be wrong, it wasn't even for the number one pick, it was for the number two overall pick, and that was when the Washington Redskins hemorrhaged everything that they had.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To the St. Louis Rams. Multiple firsts, multiple seconds, multiple fourth round picks. It was like five years straight of basically just selling the soul of the team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There it is. They send a lot that way. I think Joe Burrow, if the Miami Dolphins want to get Joe Burrow, the Ohio kid out of the Cincinnati Bengals organization, which by the way,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People have said, now Joe Burrow hasn't said it, but people have said Joe Burrow could, in the world that we live in, pull an Eli Manning


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And say, nah, I'm not going to Cincinnati. This would obviously relieve the bangles of that potential opportunity not to happen if that was ever any case of being true.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, but if this is an Ohio kid, the face of the franchise, what a wild move this would be for ol' Brown who decides not to have an indoor practice facility. This would be even worse than that, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, no. I don't think he's falling to five. Even if, Tua, you're talking about? Yeah. I was just reading a couple comments here. They were like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cincinnati should make them give up everything says Derek Myrie. You know what? Let's think about this from Cincinnati Bengals not being inept, right? Let's think about it from their standpoint. Andy Dalton, good quarterback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, but they have a number one overall pick, which means they stunk last year and they were trying to win. They were dog shit last year. I mean, they were a bad football team. The Miami Dolphins, everybody said they were tanking. The Miami Dolphins won games more


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So are they moving on from Andy Dalton regardless or do they take all these picks and say, Hey Andy, you're still going to be our guy. We are going to load up right now. We have three number one picks right now. We have next year number, another number one pick. We have a new head coach and we have no idea if he's a good head coach or not. Honestly, we have no clue if this guy thinks of what he's supposed to do or not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we're gonna load up with Andy Dalton going forward. Is that a potential outcome here if they don't take a quarterback? I guess that's what they would have to do, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, I've made fun of them. I said only the Bangles could make this mistake. I've said this on numerous occasions. Getting rid of the face of their franchise in Ohio Kid. I think a lot of their fan base, by the way, would potentially turn their back on this franchise if they turned their back on the Joe Burrow selection number one overall. But if you take a step back with a little bit of reason,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there's not, you can't really do that with the bangles because they don't make a lot of good decisions. So you can't really have a, you know, a reasonable, uh, common sense thought. If you're getting three number one overall picks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For a guy that you're not 100% sure is going to be a great quarterback and your team stinks already and you can potentially build up a lot of parts, a lot of pieces of the roster and potentially bring in Cam Newton if you're not going to do Andy Dalton. Is that not, does that not warrant a conversation at least? I think it would. Now I think it would be stupid, but I think it would at least warrant a conversation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Dolphins have enough draft capital to move too. And they're a team that's been very aggressive, they want to win STAT. I'm pretty pumped up about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, this guy in the comments just said that they should think about tanking for the next, I don't know, 5 to 10 years and build up a super tank.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which is, by the way, what I think they've been trying to do here the last couple years. The fact that they lost so many games last year, I mean, it was, that was, and then they bench, bench Andy on his berth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nah, it's, uh, it's, today was a quick conditioning day, about an hour fifteen, we got it in, and uh, you know, now I'm, I'm back on daddy time, daddy daycare time, so, nothing, nothing too serious.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just was trying to put myself in the same category as Sean Taylor. Everybody looks at him, you know, he's gone down in history.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] R.I.P., but for his, uh, you know, for his effort he gave in the Pro Bowl on, uh, another punter, so I figured if I could block your punt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well obviously I didn't do a good enough job because I should have, you know, I probably closed my eyes and didn't keep my hands down. So I'm glad you got the pun off. I apologize for the maximum effort given. I guess we were all just a little upset that we weren't in the Super Bowl.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well yeaah, I mean, you touched on a lot of, uh, things that I definitely agree with. I think first off is,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, the seasons we were able to put together as well as winning a Super Bowl. Uhm, and then you look at the latter half of.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, naturally my SAC numbers went down because I switched to inside linebackers and set, sorry, inside linebacker and, you know, SAC numbers are a sexy statistic and, you know, I just think, uh, you know, a lot of guys came on, you know,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Strong in this latter part of this decade, and uhm, you know, they were nominated ahead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's not to take anything, knock away anything from their game or anything. I just think people had, you know, forgot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, what I was able to do, and that's kinda why I put that out there, just cause, you know, I felt like, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, putting myself out there with social media and everything. I just, uh, you know, I, I did that a lot when I was younger and I kind of just got away from it. You know, I, um, I just spend most of my time with my family and, uh, people close to me and, you know, people whose, you know, opinion really mattered to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I just, yea, I don't spend a lot of time on there, uhm, other than, you know, when I truly want to get something out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I don't know if that's, you know, harmed me with, uh, you know, voters or has limited, um, you know, the accessibility.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, from the media as far as, you know, people who want to vote for me or, you know, people who are liked and what not, but ultimately I felt like my numbers, um, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're there, and, you know, I would have liked to have seen myself on that, on that list, but, you know, it is what it is. You know, that's why I put that out there and, uhm, you know, just kind of, just put it out there and let the, let the, uh, let the fans decide.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I get it. You know what it does physical like playing combat sports and it teach you like, Oh, you thought you knew what.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Throw my head in there, I gotta bring it or I'm gonna get killed. Like, I think it teaches you to push through those things so it makes everything else in life a lot easier.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well the problem with you, you're always gonna weigh a lot. You're gonna weigh more than you look because let's say you're 250 pounds right now. I'd say 222 of that is in your lower half. Good call.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's hard to do it for like five or six hours a day, like when you're on camera.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't go to the bars much anymore. That's a big decision to make. Oh, it's huge. I was insane. There was a big reason my first run didn't go well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no clue whatsoever. Again, I thought this was a Justin Herbert area. You know, you look at the prototypical size, injury free, the big arm, the great brain. I figured Herbert was going to Miami, but, uh, they knew something we didn't. Everybody was lying about


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wow, you guys inspired me. You fired me up. You guys are so full of energy that I stole some of that energy. Then when I was around Gronk for two seconds, he's just non-stop. It's like having two Mojos. I stole some of his energy and I applied all that energy when I took down Brock in less than five minutes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know if I could say I was playing possum, because he came right out the gate swinging. You could just see the look in his eyes, like he was ready to go. There was nothing more intimidating than Brock Lesnar with his game face on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's see him very briefly. Brock is a private person. Nice title.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I cannot leave it at that. You know, we went in, the match went the way it went, and I couldn't have looked any better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I won't go into any more details than that, but I'm very grateful how everything went and for everybody that was involved.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I mean, I don't talk too much in matches as it is. I just get pretty physical and I believe at this level you should be able to do your job.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With minimal conversation, if I grab, if Brock grabs me and throws me, he's not gonna tell me what's going on, I'm just expected to know how to land and land.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And seeing the environment we're in, I know I was in the zone. It was as if 80,000 people were there in my mind. I was so locked in on Brock, it didn't even matter. I was in the zone the whole time, but watching it, I could see Heyman really setting the tone and telling the story, which really helped the match and the environment. And it wasn't until the match was over, I had my kind of personal moment with the title.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, that was cool seeing it because I had the same emotion on the couch as I had watching it on TV is when I realized, oh yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's millions of people watching, I was kind of in the zone there, and then I kinda crawled to the camera, and I had a moment where I looked right into the camera, like you're not supposed to do, it's called breaking the fourth wall, in movies you don't see people looking down the camera.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But nonetheless, I saw it there. I looked right down and I kind of reached out to everybody and just let the world know, you know, thank you for supporting me this whole time. And thank you for allowing WWE to take your mind off things during this time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They could have edited it and expected it to be edited because it's not something we do, but they kept it in there and it was cool because it was very real when I was reaching out to everybody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's pretty cool. Uhm, you know, with Chosen One thing, I think in recent months it's felt...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cooler to not be chosen by management, but chosen by the fans. I feel like the fans chosen one right now, especially seeing the outpouring of support and positivity on social media from my colleagues in WWE and every other company in the world that I've came across, you know, during my career.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And apparently it was pretty nice too, cause we're all very positive, you know, about everything. And I feel like everyone out there has chosen one right now, the managements, which is I think way cooler than being chosen by management.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For sure. I don't think too far ahead. That's what I used to do when I was younger. And you think too far ahead, you don't think about the in-between part, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess short-term goals realistically right now at such uncertain times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't know what's gonna happen week by week. We can only follow, you know, the health recommendations, the CDC guidelines, and we can try and keep bringing everybody original content.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want to be steering the ship and making the show as entertaining as possible. I think we did that with WrestleMania. We thought outside the box. Everyone worked so hard. We had unique matches and it was an entertaining two days that really did take everybody's mind off of what was going on. I know that because I've seen all the social media chat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, in front of a crowd, when I walk out, and the people are gonna be rabid, we'll be passionate fans as it is, but if they've, you know, not been in an arena for a long time to get back in that arena, we're back in the arena, it's gonna be a fever pitch, and I wanna walk out with a title, raise it up, and that's not gonna be, I had my WrestleMania moment last night, it was special to me, but that'll be our, like, big wrestling moment, and I can't wait for that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, everything I've been through has prepared me for anything, and that's what I said all along. I didn't come back to WWE to be one of the top guys. I came back to be the top guy. Nobody's been through the journey I've been through. I started in WWE, had a lengthy run, was fired, went through so many experiences, good and bad and bad and bad, outside the company, but they all trained me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like to be able to face any situation and that's what the guy needs. Nobody expected this situation to come.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's here and I know I'm ready to face that too and lead the company forward and I'm very excited about the prospect. Very excited when we all get back together.

[Assistant] Uhm, but, uh, yeaah, I mean, it's weird, because I just eat a lot, really. I've got my meal prep, ehm, ready-made meals that I usually take on the road. Obviously, I'm at home right now. I eat probably three of those a day. I have whatever I want for breakfast, and I have like a cheat meal basically every day, and I work out hard in my, eh, garage gym that I've been able to fashion recently.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, that's about it. High metabolism, good genetics, work out hard, eat a crap ton. And that's the Dromach Entire Way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, my, my cheat meals aren't the rocks cheat meals. I'm not eating like 20 pa-stacks of pancakes or whatever. I'll have like some Mexican food and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe. Maybe that's been my plan all along. Like when I realized that I was like 11 years old and, you know, maybe I can't keep following these conspiracy theories because if I find out anything that might off me, it's all focused on this wrestling thing. So I've been focusing on this wrestling thing for a long time now. I've reached the top of the mountain. So everybody out there, you know, I can keep a secret.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I'm excited about the future. It is forcing us to think outside the box and be different. I think we're going to learn a lot during this period. And when we come back, I think we're going to apply a lot of what we learn during this period and what works. Like I love that boneyard match.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought it was great, like both of those were so great and I think we'll have similar, you know, matches like that in the future, maybe especially as our big featured matches if we do some version of a pay-per-view.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Within this environment, for me personally, got my wheels turning, like what would Drew McIntyre fight in? If I could get like an empty bar or something, and I'd just tape this, or like back in the day, Finnley and William Regal fought with cars surrounding them in a parking lot, and they just beat each other up. That's the kind of thing I'd love to do, that me and Bobby Lashley say.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll always, if I've got an idea, I'll always throw it out. And if I have an opinion, I'll always throw it out because in the end, you know, we want to do the best job possible. We want the best show possible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we'll listen to the ideas that are presented to us, we'll try and work with each other to come up with the best idea possible, and if you're on the roster and you don't do that, and then you complain on social media about it, and you're PUSH!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're the idiot, like, you should be thinking of creative ideas, pitching them, if it's good enough, it'll stick, you'll get the opportunity, and if you're not getting the opportunity and they're not listening, work your arse off in every other area, get better at talking.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More jacked, get in the gym, make yourself look better. If you're not jacked, get a unique character to stand out. Just whatever it is that you're lacking in, look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself, am I giving it my all in every area? Am I standing out in every area? The answer is no, and you're honest with yourself. Let's not complain.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeaah, when I was younger. That was like the worst ever. Basically, Hardcore Holly did the same thing. I didn't do it as bluntly as Holly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that was more or less my ideas when I was younger. I was like, put the title on me, how do we get in there? I'm not the writer, you figure it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Come on to the Performance Center and announce me. Also put me, don't forget to put in mild-mannered McIntyre and Sexy Scotsman.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As you said, you talked about the spin with the money. All this, oh, here's why, you know, Jameis went here, but it's a good thing, even though he's taking close to the veteran minimum. Oh, he got Lasik. That's why he was throwing all these interceptions. It had nothing to do with the fact that, hey, Bruce Arians went in and said, no, just keep throwing it, man. And that was the last thing Jameis really needed to hear from a, from a head coach, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, he goes into New Orleans, it's not a bad situation. Like, I think it's an interesting quarterback room. Those guys are all different. Like, Drew is really serious. Taysom Hill is really serious. It's interesting, a couple years ago, I remember when they drafted Garrett Grayson. Drew...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Breeze and, uh, Luke McCown was his backup. They ran over Garrett Grayson in the, in the film room because he didn't know the offense and they felt like he wasn't preparing to keep up and they were just, they hammered him. And he, he got so lost in behind that Sean Payton had to tell the quarterback's coach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You need to go coach this kid and teach him offense outside of the meeting rooms because this is getting embarrassing. That's the one thing about Jamus I would say going into New Orleans. He better know that offense better than Drew Brees, better than Taysom Hill because they will stomp him in that quarterback room. There's no doubt about that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, they do. They, they, look, they committed the money to them. They give them, they sign them, they give them the 21 million dollar deal, a 16 million guarantee. But I think part of that was because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sean Payton came out and said it, he vocalized like, essentially that he thought this was gonna be Drew's last year and then he just said it was a slip of the tongue. He didn't believe that, but I'm just telling you, people close to Drew, when he announced he was coming back,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had a chance to talk to somebody who's known Drew for a long time, and he's like, this is it, man. This has gotta be it. And, and everybody believes that. But you pay Taysom Hill because you just say, look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We want you to know that we do believe you're a quarterback. We want you to know we are going to groom you for this position. But I think in the back of their minds, they knew they were going to add


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, doing this, you know, Swiss army knife roll, and Drew gets hurt, we gotta have a quarterback on the roster.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sean really believes in, in when I was at the Super Bowl and I remember I called someone in the Saints organization and I had heard, you know, you were hearing about Bridgewater and where was he going to go in free agency.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, this was when Drew Brees was still on the sidelines. He was like, is he gonna retire? Is he not gonna retire? And this guy in the Saints organization told me, it doesn't matter. We don't care about, like, we want Taysom. Like, Taysom is the guy that Sean wants to groom for this. And even if Drew retires right now,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some Boston official came over and said, eh, you can be in the park, we'll go, we'll move all the cars, we'll stop the whole thing. I don't really understand the Boston accent. We'll have the yard for you, it'll look good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tampa Bay's not ready to win. I honestly believe this is a big deal. I think this is a big deal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a lie. I don't, I don't at all. But it's awesome that Tom Brady, these stories about, you hear stories about how like, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Somebody would drive into work early or something. They're like, you know, I woke up early and, uh, I thought I'd be able to get in there and get rest in, uh, Peyton Manning was already in there watching film or like a coach says,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whenever I was done for the night, I would leave and there was still a light on in Bill Belichick's office. You know, like those types of things, you hear these stories about these people's work ethic and how incredible they are. Jay Williams tells a story about how the first time he went out to LA, he went out for a shoot around at three o'clock and Kobe Bryant was over there and he worked harder than Jay Williams did and he was in like his 10th year or whatever. This story of during a quarantine,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All of Tampa Bay was shut down except for one fucking guy was in the middle of a park getting better. And the city official walked over to say, hey,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who's the six foot four lanky guy who's throwing the ball in the middle of Tampa Bay that looks eerily similar to the greatest ball?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was Tom Brady. Like that is just one of those legendary stories about work ethic that I absolutely love. But in Boston, no way they stop them. I bet you in Boston, a couple of the police would have been like, you only run a couple of routes out there. Like I bet you they would have been like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Snapping the ball. I played, uh, center in high school. I gotcha. You got people pass setting in Boston. Tampa, they told him to head his ass back to St. Jetersburg and do this in that living room you have that's 10,000 square feet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 100% sure. I didn't read deep enough. All I heard, all I had to hear is they saw one man working out and that one man was Tom and told his ass to go home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I assume he was slinging it at trees. I assume maybe in the garbage cans. Maybe he was trying to make a TikTok. Maybe he was trying to be a year 21 dude sweet or whatever and he was trying to make a like a potential trick shot video in the park all by himself and they shut him down. It's not easy doing that stuff anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is TikTok. TikTok I think was created for the terrible dancing people. To make sure, to make them think it's okay to dance. And by the way, as somebody that enjoys dancing,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like the fact that an entire app was created to encourage people to dance. I like it a lot. I'm actually a big fan of it. I just won't get on it because it's owned by the Chinese government and it's all on their servers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every once in a while, they'll make their way over to my social media platforms. I'm always like, what's going on over here on TikTok? And I'm like, oh, another one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Chinese government just can't do it. I did do a Zoom. I guess those things have been hacked.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I don't know if it was their Twitter account or if it was their actual like, like the actual place. This hair.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know somebody tweeted it got sent into the group and I told this story yesterday off the air to you. I told the story on air in the morning when I start talking.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Our group text is just one big chain of news that's happening. It's awesome. It is, it's like, it's a Twitter feed that has been completely Pandora, thumbs up or thumbs down immediately to our show or what we can talk about. It's awesome. Gumpy's up there in Canada. He can't do anything. He's just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Scouring the internet for news that's popping up and the group text is an electric place. But I mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't want to have to lose is the integrity been lost of the group text because we're getting unverified news just getting sent in there knowing that it's potentially going to get on air.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's not what the, what you said was a very smart move by the Oakland Raiders, by the way. Uh, they still drafted them, didn't they? Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so after they had already made the decision to get the guy that could throw the ball 80 yards from a standstill. By the way, the concept is sound. If we draft the fastest people that come out of the combine and we get a quarterback that can throw the ball the furthest,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That seems to be the fastest way to score every time. That is sound. Very sound thought. It just didn't work out that way because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's been an interesting day tech-wise over here. It's been an interesting day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They are tweeting about NFL teams having bandwidth issues and it was just reported that, uhm, who was the guy, uh, that the vacuum cleaners were hitting the pace.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He is saying that he has wires all over his house basically, and his wife unplugged one while she was vacuuming because of the lack of, uh, power outlets. This is such an


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is gonna be so awesome. Just like Zito said, we've all had issues with our internet earlier today. Carson Palmer didn't even know how to turn off his lock on his iPhone. We've all had technology problems.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, just compound that by about 2,000 because the national television audience and the whole world is captivated by one event that is revolving around tech. It is awesome. The teams are gonna make their decisions, players' dreams are gonna come true.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But what I am here for is the miscalculations of the lack of muting that happens from a GM where he thinks he's talking to his scout team, which are his scouts, which is on a zoom, but actually the audio is going towards the conference call to the other 31 GMs. I mean, I'm just work. I'm pumped for those things because something's going to happen. A mistake is going to be made.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The internet's gonna blow up and be like, how did this happen? How did this trade go through or whatever? Then you're gonna hear from the team later, like, well, what really happened was the internet dropped off right before we were supposed to do it. I'm pumped for that whole scene. You know what I mean? Like that is what I'm excited for, for Thursday night.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Three days? Are you kidding me? There's no way. We still don't even know how to use everything in this room that we have. We've been here for a couple years. If they do, massive credit to that. Cause I would make, they have, they have three conference calls going on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With two Zooms or Microsoft Teams things going on, you have to mute and unmute conversations like effectively and, and you see some of the guys that are making these decisions. I don't want to make fun of them. Andrew Barry's like my age, Cleveland Brown's GM. I assume he's going to be sound. There's a lot of guys I would assume that are going to be sound.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we all know that football guys, especially older football guys, they don't know anything about technology. They know absolutely nothing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They don't know holidays are coming up. They have no idea. They don't know what music is happening. They don't know when all they know is ball and now they're like, okay, if you want to talk to us though, like you got to mute this and then you got to, I mean, it's just going to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't be a stooge and be a general manager in the NFL, right? You're gonna be smart at something. Look at that setup that was just up on the screen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, you remember those old keyboards that were split in half? What was that big craze? I think my mom got one for the house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I haven't seen them, I haven't seen the split in half keyboards though for years. Well, turns out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought so. I got good at it though. That made you a good typer. Oh yea. Yup. Like where the ads are. I can't type now for anything. I'm a big guy. By the way, my left hand has always been kind of a pointer finger typer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right hand actually types left hand, uh, like a, uh, a tapper. But I felt like I had good WPMs. Like I feel like I had good words per minute. But I think I would be mocked if I had to type in public.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A guy in the Patriots organization, uh, for a long time. He actually called people that were potentially going to be Patriots before. It's been very interesting. He's had a lot of inside information too. He said today that Malik Hooker is currently on the trading block.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This comes only days after it's been said that a lot of people are on the trading block right now. Leonard Fernet's on the trading block. We don't know if that's because of what he said about Cam Newton and Mark Gardner-Minshew. But it feels like things are really heating up going into this draft. And also it feels like a lot of people are trying to get deals done before the draft.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So they don't have to deal with it during the draft. I wonder if this is gonna kind of expedite everything that we normally see potentially on draft night happening beforehand. And I love that. I wish it would be like that every year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Professionists? Yeah, but there's something, uh, it's like a, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, okay, so some of them I would assume are pretty OCD on how things function, right? Everybody's kinda like, I assume there were some GMs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That stayed up after that call and got a lot of reps in on muting calls, even maybe even taking practice reps like, okay, here's something from a GM go to scouts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Say something to scouts, okay? Mute GMs, mute scouts, let's go back to the GMs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What are you thinking? Let's go now to the private conversation with the general manager. Let's mute that one. Let's open it back up to the scouts. Let's tell the coaches what we're thinking. Bang. Now we're back to that GM. Let's make a trade. There is a lot of muting and unmuting that has to happen there. So the proper people are hearing you all with a clock watching everything that you do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I would assume there are guys taking practice reps. I would think so. If they're not, I think that's kind of stupid because I would do that. That is something I would do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You all shut the f*** up in this house. Nobody says a word. You gotta sneeze, go outside. Don't want to hear it. And tell those dogs they bark, congrats, you're an outside dog. That's how they gotta feel. I mean, you're on the wifi.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How do you feel about Malik Hooker being on the trading block? He's an Ohio State guy. He's made some plays for the Colts. Hasn't always been healthy, but he's made some plays whenever he's in there. I feel like he's potential good trade bait for the Colts if they really wanted something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He said, if you're talking about the draft, you owe your audience the information and facts is what he said. And he dropped an F.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He dropped a couple f-bombs all the pies on Lombardi. I texted him today, I wanted him to come on the show, he's not done until 2 something he said. But I think...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've enjoyed talking to him now. He's pissing people off, obviously, but I, I don't know who he's getting his information from. He knew DeAndre Hopkins was on the trade block last year. He said, he said he knew that information. He knows this about Malik Hooker. He, I don't know who he talks to. He said he talks to three, four GMs a day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On the trading table from the Colts, he could heard from another team that he talks to that the Colts reach out to them with Malik Hooker and then so all you need to know is probably three, four people and you know just about what everybody's doing because you know what you're doing. You know what others are doing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah, that's interesting. We need those. AJ, hey, write that down. That's what we need for this show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, there's gonna be some kid that's gonna try to get a TikTok off in the background too of his dad making a draft. Can't wait for that. Cannot wait for that. Dad's making big plays and there's probably gonna be, you know, you gotta check the background of all the photos you put out there. I learned that a lot of people have the hard way, but there's gonna be some kid that's gonna put out an entire draft board in the background. Can't wait for that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Colts did this incredible thing, uhm, they do this documentary each year. It's like a, I think it's the next pick and the next pick or something like that. They put it out on their social media.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They get in Chris Ballard's war room whenever he's talking to the scouts. It's a really nice, it's a good piece of content actually. They have, it's an entire series. I haven't seen the, I saw the first episode where they were still working together. They weren't quarantined yet. I haven't seen the next couple episodes, but they shoot in the war room, right? In the war room is this dry erase board.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The entire wall with names and all these, it's a massive room. They filmed in there. Somebody had to, somebody blurred out the entire background.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Around the silhouettes of the coaches and stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look inside what it's like, and if you get that draft board out there, that's a massive piece of information.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the person you were gung ho on that you thought nobody else was gonna take, and then right the pic before you, gone. Alright, now we got three minutes to figure this out. Ah, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The expectation is that the Giants will be really active with that number four pick. I don't get the sense that the Lions have been wild with offers at number three, at least not yet. And they know they can get a stud defensive player standing pat. So the Giants are thinking about moving. The Giants are thinking about shopping it around now. This is if you're in the top five picks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the Dolphins with three number ones. I mean, that is so much trade bait there. That is so much. With the Niners who have two number ones. I mean, there is, there is people that are going to want to, the Patriots have that ability to move if they want to move. I mean, there's a real chance that people can shoot up the draft board here and make some plays. And I, I, I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Michael Lombardi, the same guy, okay, that we just talked about with finding out about Malik Hooker being on the block.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] DeAndre Hopkins and such saying he talks to three GMs a day. Three GMs a day. So that means that those GMs are fielding offers from other people. He said...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That Tua isn't even on his draft board if he's in the top 10. If he's in the top 10, Tua's not even on his draft board.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, now I should have followed up with that. Do you already have a quarterback on your team that you, you know what I mean? I didn't, I didn't fully ask the situation because I feel like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Played 13 years, won a Super Bowl, right? Same injury basically, and that was years ago. That was years ago, and I would assume medical advancements have happened.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That this hip surgery is, and I don't want to say it's just like an ACL or something along those lines, but I would assume rehab practices and surgery practices have advanced enough with the surgery that once took out Bo Jackson. Now, even if you look at the videos,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And now is he more apt to get hurt in the same place again because he's already been injured there? I have no idea about that. But I don't think the two of camp is lying whenever they're saying I'm 100% healthy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because if he does get drafted to a team and he shows up there and he's not healthy, I would assume there's some terrible PR that would happen for Tua, and I'm sure his family doesn't want to experience that or put him through that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'm assuming he is healthy. Everybody is just wondering if he'll be able to survive a season. And I think that is a warranted question. I think that is a question that is worth asking.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did- I don't want to ask Aaron this on our, uh, draft show, cause he's had to talk about this so much. Did he get any-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Feeling the day or a couple of days before the draft that he was potentially not going to get drafted early.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause any time you see those guys that are sitting back in that green room and they fu- you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All you're hoping for is that somebody who thinks they're gonna get drafted doesn't get drafted, so you have some drama to cover in the back. I mean...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I wasn't a hundred percent sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hell, I'm going to that draft night. No way in hell am I gonna go and just potentially sit there and let the world watch like a, ehm, either my dream come true.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There is not a team that needs a QB for the next 15 picks!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That would be a tough experience. Brady Quinn also, right? Yep. Brady Quinn. Brother in law.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Immediately afterwards, okay, after that night, was Twitter, Twitter wasn't around. I don't think so. But the whole world was talking about him that night. Was there a conversation by the whole group? Like, damn, that was a terrible night. Like, what was the thought afterwards by the whole group?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It doesn't matter if you pick 199 or you're the first pick of the draft. You get on there, take advantage of it. That's what he said to Peyton Manning in Jim Nance's backyard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Matt Stafford got what? 60 million I think guaranteed. He was my number one overall pick. 222, by the way, got 45,000.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You do the math there from PIX 1 to 222. You go from 60 million guaranteed or something like that to $45,000 guaranteed. A little bit of a difference whenever you fall from 1 to 222. I did that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I survived, obviously, but Matty Stafford has given his all to that city of Detroit that he could have purchased before even stepping foot in Detroit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How about getting to a third contract for a guy named Rob Gronkowski? Uh, he said on Andy Cohen's show. Who's Andy Cohen?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was on New Year's Eve, right? Now he's on Bravo. He was on WrestleMania. He was on Fox there. Feels like Gronk is potentially about to really take over the whole globe there. He's on Bravo television. Good for Rob Gronkowski, man. Absolutely slaughtering it, he says.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm feeling good right now. I'm happy where I'm at. You just never know, man. You just never know. You never know. I'm not totally done. When he was talking about football.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, the interesting thing here is, everybody knows that ol' Tom Brady just went down to Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay's shopping O.J. Howard. Although Gronkowski's rights are currently owned by the Patriots, I'm not 100% sure they could afford to pay him if he wanted to come back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you think Rob Gronkowski will come back and play football for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers down there with Tampa Tommy in St. Jetersburg?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Gronk knows that offense. That offense moves the rock. That offense moves the ball. Now granted, whenever you have Mike Evans on the outside and Godwin, that's going to be great for Gronk already because they're opening up the middle of the field. Normally they had to park it. They could park it on Gronk. Can't do that with Mike Evans outside. I mean, it would be...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would be the rich get richer for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I'm just not 100% sure what they would have to give to the Patriots.

[Assistant] It's one of those things where Chris Ballard told me they would have had to give up something pretty good for me to go kick for them. I couldn't even fathom what it would be for Rob Gronkowski if he was going to play football again, not for the Patriots.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What do you, what do you think the NFL PA would say? Like, hey, the guy wants to play, let him out of there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think what he would say is, well, figure it out. I'm not coming back unless you trade me, but if you trade me


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll come back. Why would Bill, anything we know about Bill Belichick, why would Bill Belichick do that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No way Bill Belichick would do that. Anything we've heard about Akib Talib, uh, Ninkovic, uh, Goskowski, anything we've heard personally from people that have had to talk to Bill Belichick in a business standpoint, what makes them think that Bill Belichick would do? I guess because he was thinking about trading him years ago? Is that why? Because he thinks he's best.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know if that's the case, but I feel like that's going to be a tough conversation. But if anybody can have it, I guess Bruce Arians is a guy that is OG enough, calm, cool enough. I would assume Belichick has some respect for Bruce Arians because of how long he's been around and the success that he's had in the league. Maybe they can make a deal. I'm not sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rob Gronkowski that his team would steal the show on draft.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bruce Arians, I don't even think would ask for that much. I think he would say if I can get Rob Gronkowski, uh, let's go ahead and do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah man, that Tampa Bay team would be awesome to watch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But that is not his decision to make, he said. As we've all seen the last couple of days and weeks, Lamar, Hollywood, and Antonio Brown have been working out together. I couldn't even fathom the beating that that field is taking by the fastest feet in the NFL.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That field has to just be taking an absolute beating from those three. What an electrifying group that is working out on a field somewhere down in Florida. Lamar Jackson, Antonio Brown, Hollywood posing for photos. Do you think if the Baltimore Ravens were to sign Antonio Brown, which by the way,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have no idea if he's eligible to play, if he was to get signed. The NFL has to do its investigation. We have no idea if Harbaugh would bring in Antonio Brown. We have no clue, but let's just do a hypothetical that they do. That offense, with Antonio Brown, Hollywood Brown,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two tight ends though. Mark Ingram as well. Lamar Jackson and an offensive line. And they still play that option throw because you can do a third option, right? Everybody knows the evolution of the zone is, uh, you, you can hand it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can keep it, you can pitch it, but you can also throw it, right? Cause the team started getting in the throw. You got Antonio Brown and Hollywood Brown on each side there now. You run the option and Antonio Brown can throw the ball like 60 yards or whatever. I mean that offense just becomes like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A carnival. That offense becomes an absolute carnival over there. Do you think that's something that the Baltimore Ravens would think about? You know what? He's friends with the quarterback. That hasn't happened anywhere else. Right? While him and Tom are very tight, I guess.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, I was completely wrong. A lot of success though. He's friends with Lamar. They've worked out together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We think we have the environment or the culture that can come in and he'll have respect for it and want to participate. Do you think the Ravens would ever make this decision to bring in Antonio Brian?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I always thought that Antonio Brown was on like he had hit rock bottom and he's on the comeback tour. A lot of apologies seems like he's doing the right thing publicly. But this is all happened so quick. I mean for three years ago, two years ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We knew Antonio Brown had a big personality or whatever, but it was, man, this guy's the best wide receiver in the game. Then it all started unfolding so quickly in Pittsburgh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He started, he was racing his car like 100 miles an hour or whatever. He was, he was doing this. He wasn't showing up to games cause him and Roethlisberger weren't getting along. And now granted the narrative was spun against him. We don't know his side of that story. I'm sure there's something that hasn't been told why he decided that he didn't want to come to a practice or to a game or something along those lines.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But then he gets traded to the Raiders, he goes to the Raiders, that whole fiasco thing happens, and he off the field stuff, and then he goes to the Patriots, and more off the field stuff, then he becomes a rapper, I mean it was just all so quick, everything was so quick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the way, anybody that thought Logan Paul stood a chance in that should reconsider every, every conversation they've ever had with themselves. Every single one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean they're, the company that airs one of my shows, uh, was gonna pay him like a million bucks to sign and then a potential another million to do it. I think everybody would want to watch that fight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I think Antonio Brown would have won. I mean, I don't, like, I respect Logan. I do not want to fight Logan Paul. I don't want to fight Jake Paul.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Monsters of men, especially at this point. I mean they're trained boxers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But in my eyes, Antonio Brown is one of the most explosive and elite athletes to potentially ever exist. I mean, that's just, that's honest. I think he is so explosive. I'm not 100% sure fighting him would be something I would want to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But uhm, I, I think he's potentially on a comeback tour, but it's all happened so quick. It's gonna take some time for people. I think it only takes one day to kind of ruin your entire image to people. I think it's gonna take a while for him to potentially get back in it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everybody's like, oh, damn, Logan Paul plays no games. And then I remembered.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, the Paul brothers were on your hawk cast. What did you get?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeaah, oh yeaah, oh yeaah, oh yeaah. Oh jeez. They're gonna make so, they make so much money, I bet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I-I did a little bit, but the Paul brothers in that whole group there, I guess they went to the Vine people and said,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, we'd like some money, I believe. We want a whole lot, we would like a little bit of money for this thing, or we're gonna leave. And I guess it alleges that the Vine people said no, and then the Paul brothers went to YouTube, and Vine shortly


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was incredible how creative people got with six seconds. That, that's, it was tough. It was tough. I was very impressed with that. But it's dead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] YouTube came out. Oh, so they put it out to Forbes?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well that's from your contracts that you sign and things of that nature.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Merch wise, just merch wise. YouTube pays them like 15 million dollars each a year. Just merch wise. I couldn't even fathom what they do merch. Couldn't even fathom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He and Nick Foles went to two different forests. Nick Foles went to the forest, you know, decided he was going to come back to play football, became the MVP of the Super Bowl, Philly, Philly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jake went to the wrong forest. Shoulda went to Nick Foles' forest, went to another, or Logan went to a wrong forest. That became quite an issue there for a while. But he's back. He's got the, uh, the, the, he's got his own podcast. He does, they own the internet. That's what they do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, they were on the hot cast and they won't say it, but I will.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I'd assume Vine was making money somehow. When people log in, the emails, I would assume they were able to sell that off to something. Sell their information? Yeah. Start doing ads on there. I would assume Vine was making money, yeah. And the Pauls were like, funny you say that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They should have gave whatever you guys want, man. Just make sure you don't bankrupt our company. Hey, every once in a while we like to dive deep into the YouTube comments section.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Zito does say that he wants to create something that tells you which side of the FaceTime is wrong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we know who to blame, because in our world it happens on a very regular basis. You know, Dan Orlovsky, for instance, tried to ruin our show. We would have liked to have an app that says Orlovsky's fault. You know what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We think that 100% of the time, but the problem with that is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my god, he's got three phones. He's got six zooms. He's got all the fiber and Indigo in there so we don't fuck up the draft. I'm sick of this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She's made him a lot more human, I think. I think she has made him a lot more of a human. We saw him at a Minnesota Timberwolves game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Never seen anything like it before. I think she'll potentially post what his setup is whenever he's in the middle of action. And by the way, not often you get to see the greatest of all time do what he does. I'm sure she's learning a lot too about what happens in the office.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's now happening at the house that she's probably having to watch now. And she's like, I had no idea this is what was happening. He's just going through film for 10 hours straight and she's just watching him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Isn't there, wait, Zito, you're gonna have to tell me this. Isn't there something that you can get?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That gathers up all the service in the area and funnels it to you. What was that thing we were supposed to get?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Believe, believe, believe you me AJ. I thought the same thing. They were thinking about doing that for our, uh, our box truck this fall. They're like, okay, if we can't get a plugin for the wifi, what we'll do is, and what is it called?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll get a live view, and that basically just collects everybody's service and funnels it into you. And I'm like, how the f- that's stealing. That sounds like stealing. Like, no, it's a service you pay for, it boosts the whole thing. I would assume they're doing that among other things for every person. I would assume they have to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's somebody from Alabama or Oklahoma in the comments section that wants you to talk about Jalen Hurts. What do you see in Jalen Hurts? Talk about him right now. You think he's a potential Taysom Hill? I think he's potentially going to be a Taysom Hill for somebody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because a lot of people, if they see somebody that's a quarterback that's athletic, that they don't think is going to be a starting quarterback, the immediate response is going to be, oh, he's going to have a Taysom Hill-like package. I don't think it's just as easy to have a Taysom Hill package, because if there was, I think a lot of people would have wanted it and have been using it already. I think it's a lot more to it than just a Taysom Hill package. I think he's a lot,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Taysom. I don't think Taysom's a starting quarterback, but I think the role that he currently is in is a perfect role for a guy that has his skill set. He's good at everything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jack of all trades, master of none, but he's a jack of all trades that's at an NFL level for everything. I honestly believe that, but I don't think there's just gonna be a bunch of Taysom Hills coming out. Am I? I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The two bears that are in one cave started that, uh, cause they wanted to blossom our friendships with each other. It got really active there. Good conversation. The 24 hour walk thing came up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, boys, here's the rules. You can pick Mel Kipers or you can pick Todd McShays or Rapid Ports. If your technology goes out, we will automatically resort to their big board and draft the highest available prospect. What a hilarious option that would be. What an absolute.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you, IG live, you can't. So I don't know how they'll do that. I'll be excited to see how they do. Instagram live is interesting because you, we can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have something tech that plugs in where we can shoot it out to like four different platforms or whatever, right? So we can put it out on YouTube. We can put it out on Twitter. We can put it out on Facebook.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it would just be somebody using, it would be it's own independent game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, there's people just blaring music that is copier. There are movies. At IG live, it seems like the wild, wild west of the internet when it comes to cease and desist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It really, it feels like it's own world and people can delete that quick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jordan Palmer said he's not wearing a suit. I told him promptly, you won't be allowed on the show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Does he go, alright, gotta learn who this guy is? Or do you think he has a general, I would assume he has a general knowledge of good football players.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna ask him about the AFL, ask if he knows anything about Aussie rules football.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ted Ginn is still out there. Mark Keesley got let go yesterday. Mark Keesley is still out there. Nah. Yea, I said the same thing. What's your problem with Mark Keesley?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yea, and let's not even talk about Wes Welker. That son of a bitch is still in the game. He was at Super Bowl last year coaching. He can catch a ball or two if you need it. Oh, with his big helmet? Oh yea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it is said we do have an insider and a couple legendary coaches, uh, joining us and us having an insider is good news because I feel like there's potentially a chance where somebody could get drafted where you nor I have any idea who they are or what they do. So we'll have an insider here. I believe Mel Kuyper will make a stop by.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and we've heard plenty of other people that are gonna stop by on Thursday night. That's why it's a primetime super special and not just a primetime special.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, so Zito and Jason McAfee have been really going to work. We're gonna have a ticker, I believe. We're gonna have a, uh, on the clock thing. We're gonna have a bunch of pop-ups. We're gonna have graphics. We're gonna have photos. We're gonna have descriptions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Zito and Jason McAfee have been going to work. And I'm being 100% serious when I say that. Now granted, the first ticker they showed me, not a single human would be able to read.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ticker showed up and it just went vroom right by, right? It was kind of like people would have to slow it down. Maybe if, uh, if our bandwidth continues to slow, you'll be, Zito was preparing for the bandwidth to be slow, but they've gone to work on it. We, we're going to look like a real production, especially in our suits.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was okay. You ask him about how a movie is? Everything's, eh, it was okay. Songs? Meh, it's okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's an interesting guy, man. I still don't know much about him. To be honest with you, I don't really know much about him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bro, cause there was a, uhm, what's that, cause, reasonable cause, legitimate cause, something about that, some clause was in there about a legitimate cause happening.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There it is. You get your money. Yeah, hold on. It's in here somewhere. Let me scan through it. Luck said he was wrongfully terminated in a case that was filed in Connecticut last Thursday in his owed money that he was guaranteed who he signed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Terminated without cause. He was due the remaining balance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So he feels that he was terminated without cause. That's why he wasn't on the creditors list, by the way, because they didn't think they owed him any money. The XFL made that incredible list where we learned a lot about people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mark Tressman there, 770,000, Bob Stoops owed over a million dollars, a lot of other people including MetLife Stadium and Audie Stadium over there, Audie Field, a lot of people owed money, and then you didn't see Oliver Luck's name on there, so I was very intrigued by that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Excited to hear what he was getting paid, by the way. Once you see Stoops is making over a million at least, because this is postseason. So you already assume he's been paid at least $500,000, maybe a million, maybe he's already paid 50% of that. So I was pumped to see what Oliver Luck was making. Five years, $25 million deal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here's all the money in the world you could possibly need to build a, uh, league. Make any rules you want. Here's 25 mil, let's make it happen. League gets cancelled. Oliver Mc- Oliver Luck says, well I got no other option here, I gotta sue for this money. I assume that they'll settle on some other price? That's the way this normally goes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good for Oliver Luck, ran a hell of a league, COVID-19 came out of nowhere, and he's probably going to end up with like 15, 20 million out of this thing. 15 million out of this thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ran the NCAA. He was athletic director for WVU. Got him in the Big 12. He ran the Houston Dynamo. He ran the World League.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, there's a guy that knows his way around contracts as well. I mean, I would assume, not that Vince McMahon isn't-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The most underrated genius, business genius that is, America's probably ever created, the most underrated. I mean, his business now is obviously in the book, but, uh, he built a billion dollar international industry out of something that was considered a regional event. I mean, he, the whole thing, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oliver Luck though, also a very smart businessman. Let's not, so I'm...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Vince McMahon just out there. And then Oliver Luck would be like smart. Oliver Luck, one of the smartest guys out there too. I mean, I think that there's that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wish that they would film those depositions or whatever the hell it would have been.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the league worked, by the way. So the league worked. So Oliver Luck probably feels like, hey,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I ran, I built a league basically. I got, I got two networks to bid on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With high money, I got these rules, I got stadium selling, a lot of tickets to teams that didn't even exist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Absolutely awesome. Vince, I hope has, you know, no tie on kind of the open.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Probably end up being like lawyer fees, 30 million. They're both just not given in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Me too. I thought it was going to be like Game of Thrones type numbers, which is like 13, 14 million, I think. Yeah. Isn't that what they were doing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Boy, it felt like everybody in the sports world was watching that. And anytime anything sports happens, it dominates all of the social media platforms. So it had 28 of 30, 28 of the 30 trends on Twitter was the last dance, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 28 of 30. 6.1 million. Massive. Massive show. If you get a show that has 6.1 million, uh, viewers, you are gonna be very wealthy for a very long time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hell of a piece of content you got. But I was expecting like 10 million, 13 million or something. Just cause I've heard shows on Sunday nights have gotten that before. I just assumed everybody would do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well did, did the Netflix numbers get counted into this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm so sorry, I will answer that in one second. I have a question to follow up to that. Diggs, does your phone say, hey, time for bed now?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He has an app that, well, whenever it was first described to me, it didn't say midnight. It said he had a phone app that basically gave his phone a bedtime so he couldn't use it past a certain time. Like it actually turned off. This is how it was explained to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His phone had a bedtime, so it was basically telling him to go to bed, like night night. And I always wondered if the phone said, good night, tone. And it was like, just shut off. Can't use me, even if somebody's dying in your house or something. Can't do that. But that is, does it say that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Me too, I open that thing up whenever it's tired.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But that's one less step, but that's because it's, it's like your little assistant. Yeaah. That's smart. I just go, I don't really like it. Uhm, well you had a question. I said I was gonna answer it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeaah, I don't know. I never understood that. Because what about people that are just watching an eclipse on their phones? Like I feel like the NBA, they said their numbers were down, but I watch more NBA on my phone than I do on TV. It's like how do they calculate for that? Because I think that's good for their business.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though they're probably thinking that it might not be good for business because their old school ratings are down, but their internet ratings are up. It's like what matters? What does it matter? I don't know anymore. What's up? What's down? I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, they said like 262,000 eyes see this every single day. And I'm like, alright.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was whenever I had my, uh, my, I did my stand-up comedy thing when we released it. I got a billboard just to get a billboard. It was on a high.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was very cheap, but they told me 262,000 eyes were on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What everybody thinks is gonna happen because of how many companies have gotten absolutely kicked in the ass by this thing. They think a lot more advertising and marketing money is gonna go to prove it like advertising campaigns, which is what very much the internet revolves around.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, CPA's I believe is what's called or some other thing like that. You get it. Like promo codes and stuff like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I think that type of advertising going forward is going to be the new norm. And I'm not 100% sure billboards preserve, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, create enough results that people are going to keep buying into them. Just like I'm not 100% sure about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of commercials. I think they were going to see a drastic change in marketing after this quarantine. I really do believe that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've never seen a movie. I just saw the billboards. It's not a bad movie. Damn good movie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got two episodes in, two and a half episodes in, fell asleep during it, but boy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were living a crazy life down there. Love Jesus. Love Jesus, boy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a lot of things in that Bible that I did not know were going the way that he was saying they were going. He had to do the burden of sex for everybody too. I mean, what a-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What an absolutely good guy, this guy. These cults are so interesting, man. That was not that long ago. That was not that long ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're not doing this, okay? I don't need you two stooges trying to showcase your wit and intelligence and then getting us in trouble with said parties that could potentially want to ruin us forever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What are you talking about, Connor? I'm just talking about the church in general. What church? The Catholic Church. Oh, so there you said it again. So now you're trying to get us in trouble with the Catholics? Never get in trouble.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got on the right side of the Ohio State Stooges, I think. I'm not 100% sure, but I think I got on the right side of the Stooges. They kind of left me alone for a little bit. By the way, I think they would respect what I had to do if they...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I read their Twitter Avies right, those guys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyway, they're all the same. They're the same exact person tweeting me just thousands of times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They didn't like me and Urban Meyer not agreeing with each other, you know, and I, I told them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That what if I don't, what am I just a big bitch? No, that is not the case. I am going to answer. And if somebody wants to take a shot at me, I don't care who it is. You know what I mean? Yeah, I'll throw bows. But since then, Mr. Meyer and I have made up cordially.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, I'm all the way back on the Ohio State hype train, man. I'm all the way in on the Ohio State, the Ohio State. Have a little respect. It's the Ohio State. I'm all the way in, but it is a cult for sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, they tell them that that's like where the devil is or whatever, right? The first thing is to demonize everything that could potentially help them leave.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's not a lot to speak about. He said to Greg Bishop, I don't know who Greg Bishop is, but he got an interview with the Andre Hopkins now of the Arizona Cardinals.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] DeAndre Hopkins wanted to clear up that there was no relationship between me and Billy O'Brien, okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Make sure you put that in there. There was no relationship. The Michael Irvin story was a bit much. I have respect for him, but there was no relationship between us and which makes me question.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What the hell is Bill O'Brien doing if you don't have a relationship with one of the best players in the NFL and he just so happens to be on your team? Even if you don't agree with everything the man does.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There has to be some sort of relationship between coach GM and star player.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's just how it has to be. You can't just ignore each other. You're in the same building for eight hours. On Sundays, you're trying to work towards the same goal. It makes no sense that there was no relationship. The story that Irvin put out that it was debunked or whatever, and then you talk about what


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bill O'Brien was saying about how he had three years left on his deal and he wanted more money. That's all a bunch of bullshit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is such a good call. The no relationship is kind of scary. What do they do? They don't look at each other when they're walking down the hallway? Like how's that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Teammates like him. City of Houston seems to like him. Deshaun Watson likes him. Obviously throws him a lot of balls. And you hear Tom Brady talk about how he will only throw the ball to somebody he trusts. I assume all quarterbacks do that same thing. Deshaun Watson, him, I mean, it makes no sense to me. It makes no sense to me. Now, granted,

[Assistant] Billy Oh says that we can't judge this trade until later on down the road and that is very fair because what Randall Cobb and David Johnson and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cooks. What Cooks do in replace of DeAndre Hopkins is yet to be determined, but damn man, this is all looking bad on Billy O'Brien and the way things are running down there in Houston.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He has no boss either, so Bill O'Brien can say and do whatever he wants. I think Bill O'Brien is just waiting for football to start back up and just praying to God that they have a lot of success this year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Please God, let's win this. And then cause if not, maybe he ends up at the Arizona Cardinals as offensive coordinator with Cliff Kingsbury, you know, and he's going to make it work with DeAndre Hopkins again. Is this show over?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeaah yeaah. No, we're doing it on Thursday. We're doing it on draft. Draft primetime super special. By the way, can't wait for you guys to hear. AJ Hawks. Primetime. Draft.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's gonna put something special on it because it's prime time and it's super special.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think so. I think we say this is what we think is gonna happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wanna, I wanna Aaron Rodgers to potentially tell me, uh, a pick or two to him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you remember that? Do you remember how outraged people were that Aaron Rodgers got out of Peru safe?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People were so mad. That was outrageous. The beard he was rocking on your show was next level.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or, you know, if he wants to rock one of them denim, denim, denims, because he's not 100% sure if the ol' draft, uh, uh, sponsor's lunch will happen. I mean, that can also happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yup, that is it. Yup, gotta go sit with some random table.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They put me up on stage the last time. Good move. They put me up earlier.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The priest would come out. He would deliver a six to seven minute prayer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's making fun of football players intelligence, right? So he's making fun of our intelligence to get a pop from the sponsors while we were sitting in there, right? He said that like, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He said he was interviewing one player. He was reading note cards too, by the way, which I have a big problem with if you're speaking from just because like, hey,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exactly, and he said that he interviewed one player one time and he said football players live in their own world. He like took a shot at us for our intelligence and he said he was interviewing one player and the player made up a word. It was a fake word to describe something, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I locked that in. Got a pretty good pop from the crowd, by the way. Not the players, but the crowd got a pretty good pop. So I got interviewed, I got called up there for one of the Q&As and nobody had a clue who I was. Right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I immediately hit with a buzzsaw answer the first one. Like I'm talking very fast and I'm coming right at you, right? And then he like, kind of got like up in his seat and then he asked another question.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was a good time. It wasn't just me. We had a very, we had a great personality team, but you know, I hit a little bit different in that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I agree. I agree. They sent me a gift box, uh, with the new Colts logo. Oh, nice. Yeah. But then I saw like, a lot of people got them. Uuuh. So I didn't post about it. I think they wanted- Cause you got upset.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I didn't get upset. I did not get upset. But once I saw like a couple people post about it, I was like, well, I'm not gonna post about this. I mean, everybody else is posting about this. No name on the list.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's kind of what it was, by the way. It was a beautiful, it was a beautiful box, by the way. It was a beautiful box, and I think as I was posting it, I saw like five people post about it, and I was like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And hat, and the draft hat. Ooh, how's the hat? It's a, it's a standard, it's a standard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, it's a snapback, it's a snapback draft cap. Very nice, all black, which I love. Everybody knows that, but the shirt with the secondary logo. It was a large too, I think they kind of took a shot at me. You know what I mean?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, then I know what I'm doing. I know exactly what I'm doing. I got Jason McAfee, two liters of coke, stone cold Steve Austin in them, right? Chugging it. My family's recording that while I'm doing it. And then I put that on the internet saying the NFL refused to cut to this. Bang. Here's the second round. I mean, that is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Old Billy Codes. We'll figure that. Is this show over? Next time you see this show, by the way, we will be in suits.
