[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, everything looks great. It looks all authentic. There's hardly any restoration. I mean, there's maybe a newer screw put in there, but very, very minor. I'm gonna say,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the ballpark of probably 2000 and up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, this, this is just a really wonderful thing. This gives guys like me hope that there's still stuff out there that can be found. Thanks for coming in, Sean. I really appreciate it. No problem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, remember these things were instructional devices. And, you know, even though it looks like a toy, it really isn't. This will definitely kill you if you are on the business end of it. So it's not something to take lightly. Okay. Don't let the size fool you. This thing could cause some serious damage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gonna load this thing up. Gonna put about 50 grains of black powder in here. 50 grains? 50 grains. Then the projectile. Gonna load it down. Pack it in good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then we're gonna put a little bit of priming powder on the touch hole. And then I'm gonna use this as a lint stock like they did in the day and have a burning fuse on the end. Gives me some distance just to be on the safe side. Alright. So when I touch this thing off, we need to be far away. Okay. Because this thing hasn't been fired in, you know, who knows how long.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right around the teens or the twenties, the helmets became optional. It was much more brutal than today. A lot less rules. Literally in one year in college ball, 12 people died. So eventually it became mandatory. And believe it or not, when they first came out, you went to a shoemaker to get your helmet made. I believe it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's believed that the first football helmets were used back in 1893 in the army-navy game. But those helmets sucked. And by the 1940s, leather helmets like this were mandatory in the NFL.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, you just don't see these things anymore, and this one's in great shape. Like most Americans, I love football, and I want this helmet. I have to be smart on the price, because it's not tied to a particular player or team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There is, I mean, it's not associated with a player or a team or anything else like that. Uhm, I'll give you a hundred bucks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These are pretty cool. The 49ers, they just dominated the 80s. I mean, in the course of 13 years, they won five Super Bowls. You got it, that's correct. The whole evolution of Super Bowl rings is pretty cool.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The NFL actually has rules on how you can make a Super Bowl ring. Your first Super Bowl ring can only be 10 karat gold.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Told the NFL, I don't care what your rules are in a Super Bowl ring, I'm gonna do it the way I want it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, these are player's rings. You bet they are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, well no, I can tell you right now this is a 100% genuine ring, but it's been sized by a really bad jeweler.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In my opinion, it brings it down a little bit just because you don't have the markings inside of it and people want to see that. The other ones are like pristine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you mind if I call someone and take a look at them? I have no problem with that at all. I'm gonna call in my sports guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Superbowl is the biggest television event, period. It's just insane that it's Superbowl. I mean, I mean the bad seats are 500 bucks. And I hate people who watch it just for the commercials.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 1966-1967, Green Bay Packers, Vince Lombardi.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Arguably the greatest football coach in the history of the world, and to this day, that's what the Super Bowl Trophy is called. It's not called the Super Bowl Trophy, it's called the Vince Lombardi Trophy. Yes. So where'd you get them?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, there's not $500 with the gold there, I'll tell you that right now. Uhm, but-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think they're worth more. I think you might have a little gold mine here. Uhm, I could be wrong. Hope you're right. Uhm, let me call somebody up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeaah, that stone's been, that's definitely reset. That's not the original, the original prongs are more or less broken off or worn off, so what they do is they take it, it's called a graver, and you would,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Push the gold over onto the stone. So that's definitely been replaced. It doesn't have a factory prongs there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, playbooks from the 66 dolphins. That's not NFL, that's ASL.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Football has been played professionally in the US for a long time. I think since 1920, and now it's one of the most popular sports we have. Some people think it's just a bunch of big guys tackling each other. There's actually a ton of strategy involved. So huge playbooks like this are a big part of the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lunch, three dollars. Dinner, six dollars. Breakfast, two dollars. I mean, they literally got paid next to nothing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Especially for what they did to their bodies. I mean, just goes to show the difference between football in the 1960s and football today. Americans love football. I heard at least two-thirds of the American population watch at least one game a year. That's crazy to think about. So it's pretty safe to say there's a market for this kind of stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't even know why I'm going that high. 260? 250 bucks. They are gonna sit for a while.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So what do you wanna do with it? I wanna sell it. I think we should call Jeremy on this thing right here. I got this. You sure about this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If it was me, I would definitely get a second opinion on this thing. But I've been trying to give Cory a longer leash on making deals lately. I just hope he doesn't blow it and lose us a bunch of money in the process.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Earlier a guy brought in a 2004 New England Patriots Super Bowl ring. But the manufacturer's mark doesn't look right. So I called in my buddy who's an expert to take a look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then, we're gonna start at the top, and we're gonna come down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then right here we're going to curve around and then connect underneath.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Next let's draw the thumb. We're going to draw another curve that comes out and then back in. Smaller letter C.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, let's repeat that same step except we're going to flip it on the other side going the other direction. So we'll draw a backwards letter C.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's draw the back of the glove coming around underneath and then connecting back in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then let's draw the thumb. We'll draw another backward C shape.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now let's draw our boxer's head. We're gonna draw the chin first. Gotta protect that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Protect your chin. Then we're going to draw the outside of


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The boxer's head, we're going to come up on the left and then also up on the right and I'm going to match on both sides. We're going to draw coming up a little higher.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then we're going to draw the padding or the headgear that goes over the boxer's forehead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then let's draw the padding that's on the side. So we're going to draw another curve that comes up, but this time we're going to draw it higher and we'll match that same curve on the other side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Next we can connect this line over to the other side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then they also have extra padding that goes over the ears. So let's draw, it's like another letter C.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That looks awesome. I'm going to add longer hair sticking out the bottom. So I'm going to add a little curve here and I'm going to add curly hair like this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, that's fun. I'm gonna add more curly hair on this side. What's our boxer missing? A face! Yeah, let's draw a face next. Let's draw the eyes. I'm gonna draw a circle on the left and also over here on the right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we can draw the, a little circle in the top left.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And let's leave those little circles white, but color in the bigger circle. Then let's draw the smile.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we're gonna draw just another letter U shape below, and this could be for the elbow or the arms. And they're tucked in, so that's all we're gonna draw.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now let's draw the rest of the body. We're going to draw two lines coming down on each side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then we can draw the waist. Draw a line across. Looks like the letter H. We could also add another line across for the belt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's also add a letter U up here. This could be for the jersey or the tank top.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then let's draw the shorts. We're going to draw an upside down letter V in between the legs. And then we can connect the left side of the shorts and the right side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Next, let's draw the legs. We can draw two lines coming down on the left side and two coming down on the right side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On the inside line, let's draw that one longer. We'll extend it down further for the heel.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we can draw the boots. We're going to draw a sideways U shape comes out and then connects back in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And do the same thing, but the other direction for the other boot or shoe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we can also add the shoelaces. I'm gonna draw three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We did it! We finished drawing our Boxer! They look really cool, except... We still need to colour it! Yes, my favourite part! We are going to fast forward, so remember to pause the video and take extra time to colour your drawings too! You ready to fast forward? Yes!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We did it! We finished drawing and coloring our boxers. This is one of my new favorite lessons. Yeah, it's really cool. Yeah, I love how cool it looks. I hope our art friends will take time to color their drawings too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love collecting Olympic tickets. I'm looking to sell so I can turn around and pick up some of the few that I need to complete my collection.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, how you doing? Pretty good. What do we got? Got something very special here. I have the Olympic Torch from the 1984 Summer Games, which I actually ran with the torch. It was the most phenomenal thing I've ever done in my life, and I even signed autographs after.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can't go lower than 45, I'm sorry. That's my bottom line on the sports. They've been with me for 25 years, so I can't let them go easy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look good on my trophy wall. You know what? I think you're right. Thanks for bringing him in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a lot of signatures on this ball. Plus, I don't know what the price it has because they're relatively famous players. Absolutely. And as we all know, Brian Piccolo isn't around anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What do we got here? A program from Superboat Number One, Packers and Chiefs, from 1967.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you don't think a Packers fan would pay five, six hundred dollars for it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How about I sell it right here to these people for 600 bucks? How about I have one of my security guards throw you out of my store?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll let it go for 500, but that's, that's as low as I'll go. I'll go 200.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, 200's just too low, I might as well just hang on to it. That's, it's all up to you, my man. Alright.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll take it back home and I'll give it to my son and maybe in 30 years it'll be worth $255.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Jazz. Utah Jazz? Yea. That's my favorite team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's awesome. Okay, let's start by drawing a big circle on our paper. And we're gonna draw it really big. And we're gonna draw really big. We're gonna draw it


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now if you guys want, you could use a plate and trace around it to get a perfect circle. Okay, now we're going to draw the lines inside of our basketball, and we want it to look 3D. So we're not going to draw straight lines, we're going to draw curved lines. And the first one we're going to draw is right in the middle. We're going to draw, watch this, we're going to draw a curve. Look at that. See how it curves down?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good. Now let's draw another one and it's gonna go the other way. We're gonna start up here and we're gonna draw a curve.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, yup, start in the middle. Curve it to the left.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, he did such a great job. Now it looks like it's a sphere, which is a bullshit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah, you did it. Now we're gonna draw the right side, and we're gonna start over here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now we're gonna curve down and back. And look at this space. See how this space is that size? And this space matches. So we're gonna try and cross in the same spot. See how we have distance there? We're gonna cross right here. So you can start up here, right here, curve to there, and then back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, we did it. We finished joining our basketball. That was pretty easy, wasn't it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, this part we're gonna fast forward, but at the end you guys can match the same color. You ready to fast forward?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Awesome, good job. You did awesome on coloring your basketball orange. Now I also added thicker lines with my black oil pastel and went around the outside with a thicker line too, but you can leave that off to keep the last a little easier. How old are you? Six. Six and you did awesome.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, we do. We hope you had a lot of fun and it's okay if your drawings don't look exactly like ours. We say this every time because we mean it. What's the most important thing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Practice and we'll see you later art friends. Goodbye! If you had fun following along in this lesson, be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel by clicking the circle. Then you can click the bell to get notified every time we upload new videos. I've also picked out these two other lessons I thought you'd really enjoy. Don't forget to take a photo of your child's finished artwork and share it on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter because we want to see how awesome it turned out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, we're going to use a bowl as a template to trace around. So be sure to get a bowl that you don't worry about, you're not going to worry about getting a marker on or a pencil. Alright, you ready to start? Yeaah. Okay, let's do it. Alright Austin, we've got our paper and we've got our bowl and we're going to put it down like this and we're going to trace around it but we're not going to trace all the way around it, okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we're gonna start right here, about halfway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the middle of our bowl and we're gonna go all the way around and maybe even a little further than we did over here on this side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright Austin, the next step is we're gonna put the face mask on our helmet. So we're gonna start over here and we're gonna draw a little line straight across. Can you do it? Straight across, yea, out and then back in. Good, and then you can stop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then we're gonna start, we're gonna come down to the middle right here and we're gonna draw this line down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Almost to the middle. So I'll put a little point for you right down here. So connect from there to the point. Good job!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You did it! Okay, now we're gonna draw a line right next to it that looks exactly the same.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can you do that? Match right here to there and then down to here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good, I'm glad it's super easy. Alright, okay, now we're going to connect the front, and we're going to connect the back with a U.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, now we're gonna draw a J. Do you know how to draw a J? We're gonna start right here, right where it's bending, and we're gonna draw a J that comes down pretty far like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can you do that? So we'll start right there. We're going to draw a J that comes down to here. Wait, was it right here? Yep, right there. So come down and draw a hook shape. Good, and then hook in. Good job!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now we're gonna draw a line just like that one, right next to it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good job. Now we're gonna draw a line curved, but kinda straight up. We're gonna draw it straight over to there, to that point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're going to drop from there, from this point, right here, all the way up to there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, awesome. Now we're gonna draw the mask coming in. So we're gonna draw a line from there to there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good. And then the top one, we're gonna draw that one just like it going in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good. Alright Austin, now we're going to connect this and we're going to imagine it going through and then connecting in here. So we're going to draw a line from there to there. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good job! Okay, now we're gonna draw another, we're gonna draw two more lines just like those. So here, I'm gonna show ya. I'm gonna draw from here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then, and right there, and I'm gonna do another one right next to it, and I'll help you in one sec. Like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then this last one from there to there. Good. And then the another one from there to there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We did it. We did the face mask. Okay, now we need to draw the bottom of the helmet. So we're going to put a little line right here. And this, this does get a little tricky, but we'll do it slowly, okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, I drew it for you. That was a little point. Let's draw a little longer. There we go. And I'm gonna draw mine a little longer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good, okay. Now we're gonna draw a line that this is gonna make the earpiece for the helmet. So now we're gonna draw a line from there to there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You like football, don't you? Yeaah. Here, from here to there. Good job. Alright Austin, now we're gonna draw


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A line in there, so from there to there in the small little space. And then another one down here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we're imagining this going through the face mask.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good. And then we're going to draw the ear piece. So it's going to come around and make an S line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we're going to draw an S line that comes down like this and then up into there. So start there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good. And then come back up and connect it to there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes. Whoa, that's an S line for sure. I like it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, and then there's a little hole so that you're, when you have the helmet on, you can hear through the hole. Okay? So we're gonna do a circle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right there where the ear goes. So I'll put a point to draw a circle right there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good. And then let's do two more circles and these are for the chin straps. They're little snaps. So one circle right there. Yeaah, that's a good spot. And then another circle back here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's so awesome. Okay, there's one more thing up here at the front. Let's draw a little line. Comes out right here at the front. And this is going to hold the face mask onto the helmet. Okay, and then we're going to draw a hook. Comes around and in. Can you do it? All by yourself. Good job.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're gonna leave our helmets just like this because our art friends can draw their own team on the side of the helmet. So their favorite football team, they can put the logo on the side and then color it with their team colors. Cool? Yeaah. Yeaah. Now it's okay that our helmets look a little different, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey our friends! We're gonna draw a cool ball today. What are we gonna draw? Soccer ball! Yes! Woohoo!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, checkers, you got your marker? Yeaah. Why are we going to draw a soccer ball today? Uhm. What's going on? Something special? A World Cup. Yeaah, it's a World Cup. What's a World Cup? Uhm, it's a World's Cup.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's where the countries from all over the world come and play what game? Soccer. Yes, we're playing soccer right now. It's pretty fun to watch, huh? Yeah. Yes. Well, it's hard to draw a soccer ball, isn't it? Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It seems like it should be pretty easy because it's just a round circle. A ball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's got a lot of designs on it, a lot of lines, huh? Yeah. So we're going to show you a really easy way to draw a soccer ball. And you seem very excited.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, ready? Let's get going. This is super easy. This is going to be a short video, and we've got a bowl that's going to help us. We're going to cheat a little bit. But the reason why is because it's a cool way to draw a circle, huh? Yeaah. So, this ball, because we're using a Sharpie,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're using a black old bowl that we stole from the kitchen. Mom won't mind because it's black, huh? And it's old. And it's old. And it's the only one that we have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the last of its kind, huh? Oops, did a little mistake there. That's alright. There you go, bud. So what I do, what I like to do is start really far on one direction and then go all the way around so that you can get it in one hit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a good, yeaah, start this way. Start how you were. Put your arm on the other side. Or that, that'll work. There you go. Keep going.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, my child. One hit. Good job. All right. Okay. Now we're going to draw a special shape right here. Do you know what shape it is? Pentagon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, good job. How many, how many shapes, I was going to say shapes, how many sides does a pentagon have? Five. Yes, so we're going to draw a pentagon right in the middle of the soccer ball, okay? So we're going to draw, to draw a pentagon, we're going to start kind of in the middle and we're going to draw an upside down V.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's spread out, and you want both sides to be pretty equal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good job. Okay, now we're gonna draw two more lines that come down. And you want these to be about the same, same distance. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As, as the two sites that we already drew. Good job dude. And then one last one, right at the bottom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's alright. Yeaah, you're a little off center. That's okay because your soccer ball is going to look like it's rolling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, yeaah, that's going to be cool. Alright, okay, now we're going to see this line right here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're going to take that line and we're going to move it and watch this, we're going to move it really close to the edge.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You see that? Yea. So go ahead and do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, yours will be, it'll look a little different because it's off, off center, but that's alright. Okay, now we're going to turn our paper and we're going to do the same thing. Move this line right close to the edge.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know this might seem weird, but just wait until we're done. Then we're going to move this line close to the edge.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You just made your paper all soggy. Okay, now we're gonna do the last one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You got it? Yeah. Cool. Okay, now we're gonna go around and we're gonna draw two lines that connect those lines.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Got it? Yea. Alright, cool. Next step, we're gonna draw a straight line. Okay, so we're gonna do, we're gonna start off of each corner of the pentagon, and we're gonna draw a line that comes halfway to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In between these, uh, yup. And then you're going to draw a Y.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kinda draw that Y, so a Y right there. And you can do, you can turn it this way and do it that way if you want, or you can work down. I kinda like working down. So it's an upside down Y.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So go around and do all of those so you connect them all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have one awesome looking soccer ball. We're not quite done yet though. All right. First thing we're going to color in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're going to color in this for the center pentagon, the first one that we drew, okay? And we'll speed this up, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Excellent, dude. Okay, now we're gonna go around and we're gonna color ones so that we have the right pattern on here. Do you know which one we're gonna color?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you've got the center pentagon and you've got five lines that come out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Almost there. Good job. Wow. Are your hands sore? Are your wrists sore? Coloring that sucker in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good job, man. Look at that soccer ball. That is awesome. Did you have fun? Yea. It's pretty easy, huh? Yea.

[Assistant] We hope you guys had fun drawing your soccer balls with us and it's pretty easy. You think you could remember how to do that? Yea. Good. Definitely.

[Assistant] This has been a gradual process, with ESPN struggling immensely over the past few years, hemorrhaging Red Ink and bleeding subscribers. Their parent company, Disney, is rumored to want nothing to do with them anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The issue here is that they don't really change much from their original formula. What may have worked at 2pm doesn't work at 6 when people expect information in a timely manner. It's the same damn talking heads and personalities issues that have plagued ESPN for years now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm sorry, Michael Smith and Jamel Hill couldn't hold a candle to the likes of Stuart Scott. That man was not only effective and efficient, but introduced sports programming to an urban audience. These two dress up and try way too hard at being the sports version of SNL.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is it any wonder why layoffs at ESPN are commonplace anymore? We just had the big one a little bit ago, and it wouldn't shock me if there are even more in the future. The network went from something that I couldn't live without to something that I might just glance at if I'm in a line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] ESPN is still stuck in their 90s mindset where they can do no wrong and they're just one big personality away from goal. It could be worse though. They could be Fox Sports 1.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That takes incredible skill to accomplish. How the hell are the Avs this goddamn bad? I thought this team was supposed to be good this year. All that talent on the roster and they still play like shit? Oh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yep, that'll do it. To be fair, Stan doesn't actually control the avalanche. That responsibility goes to his son Josh Cronkey.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now I know I'm going to get flack from Afspans for accusing the ownership of being shitty because of reputation. They actually spend to the salary cap, you say. They keep out of the way of management.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 29 other teams were chomping at the bitch to trade for him, but then Colorado does the right thing and signs him to an extension, and Patrick Wah pouts and ragequits the Avalanche for not getting his way. That's never happened in his career at all. I expected this team to improve the season and be a playoff contender.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The newly minted stalwart who has stopped giving a shit about playing defense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Eric Johnson was the best D-Man, and he got injured.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now their defense has a stench rivaling India's designated shitting streets. I don't exaggerate when I say that everyone is underachieving. Fucking everyone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Carl Soderberg is projected for about 30 less points than last season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] John Mitchell has one fucking goal in 34 games. The goalies can't extinguish all of the dumpster fires. Their core has been unable to take over games as advertised. And holy mother of god, the depth on the wings is a comedic statement. I don't know what's more depressing. The fact that Rene Bork is still in the NHL or that he is one of the top scorers on the avalanche.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Things are looking on the up and up with Dale Talon. Gerard Galant was nominated for the Jack Adams Award. They're heavy favorites against the Islanders. They should kick that they got gut punched by them and jawed by the refs in game 6.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look at these fucking penguins. They won with speed. They won with skill. They won without physicality. This is what they need to emulate. Analytics are the future. The Panthers need to be ahead of the curve. Look at Moneyball. It was goddamn revolutionary for its time and now it is revered.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tom Rowe is the man that will lead them there. The scouts are outdated and have been corrupted by intangibles. The Panthers may have one of the better drafting records in recent years, but they need a new voice in scouting. They need more yes men that nod in approval at their genius. Their scouting director is not one of these men. He shall go to the gallows.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That man is Gerard Gallant. He's a stubborn old fuck. He doesn't believe in any of these fancy maths and the players like him a little too much. Let's also remember those fucking penguins. They threw their shitty coach into the fire and turned into a goddamn juggernaut multiple times over. Time to sack him. Immediately after the first game of a long road trip. And force him to depart the stadium via taxi.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Too bad nobody is actually there to see it happen. You see, the owners of the Panthers are, should I say, financially inept. Sadly, they're eons better than the previous ones.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People don't want to see a shitty team play, especially in a city like Miami, when there are infinite options to spend the entertainment dollar. It also hurts that they put the arena in fucking sunrise. An area on the outskirts of the city and a half hour drive away from downtown on a good day. They may as well have put the stadium in Pripyat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it turns out the team is hockey's Tenerife and a lapping stock of the NHL once again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mr. Magoo is a conniving, power-hungry curmudgeon. Get booted into the Atlantic for the triumphant return of Dale Talon. This team is a confused, incoherent mess that has been led astray by analytics. It's time to take it back from the nerds! GET THOSE


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you know what, this Riley Smith guy is vastly overpaid in analytics like him too. Vegas will pick up his salary as well. You'll see Oaken and Sucks yet again. Buy him out. Old man Yager is too old. Buh-bye.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This. Sure, Florida's future isn't completely fucked. They still have some really nice pieces in their core, but their recent actions have set the team back at least three or four years. Who knew that by trying to imitate a successful team, you usually get inferior versions of said team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now they get to cut their budget by 10 million dollars next season. You couldn't expect anything less from a nominee for Secretary of the Army.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At least he can try to punch more concession workers in the face. That might help the Panthers win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The elite defects. A group blessed with talent. One that dubbed themselves with a name to be feared. Saxonville.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At cornerback, loaded. Arguably the best corner in the game in Jalen Ramsey shutting down number one receivers. AJ Bouye covering the other side equally as good. Deshaun Gibson in Barry Church manning the safety positions. It was built for both the present and the future. Roof enough how they were holding their own against an empire in New England.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What happened? Three and out, six play drive, three and out. The only good play was a 20 yard pass to Dee Dee Westbrook. The offense failed and the defense couldn't hold.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the time the Patriots took the lead, the Jaguars offense was long flaccid. All they needed was one drive to get to the Super Bowl, and even that couldn't be done. But at least the future looked bright. There's finally hope in Duvall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was... interesting. It relied on Bortles continuing to develop for it to pay off, but the defense was the key. Palpas-Luzny was retiring after a long career of service. His void needed to be filled.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unbelievably insufferable. This whole organization hadn't been in this spot for a long time, but sure as hell acted like it. You guys had one year, and suddenly you think you're the hottest shit this side of the Mississippi.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're so haughty that they believe a £50,000 tab would be on the house. They don't take not being treated as gods likely. Starting fights with security and four of them being thrown into the slammer. The game itself with Philadelphia didn't go so well, but that's unsurprising. After the Baya trip to Indianapolis, where they find out about Eric Ebron.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Barry Church, you were part of that London fiasco, fuck off the hell. Deshaun Gibson, that's all I needed to say.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now the question of the next quarterback would come into play. They needed to get the stench of portals off him quickly. Who did they decide to go after? Not someone of the future, but a desperation heave and a quick fix. Nick Foles, a man who was known for a meme in an underdog Super Bowl run.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Noble and respectable. Until apparently finding himself meant fucking a 17 year old girl. Not as noble and respectable. As for Big Dick Nick...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Injured in week one, isn't the same quarterback when he comes back and is promptly benched for an upstart rookie in Gardner-Minshew. Total flop of a signing. Well done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would keep applauding you, but Jalen Ramsey's had enough of the bullshit. He decided to just stop playing for the team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As an example, Dante Fowler got fined over $700,000 for missing these mandatory appointments. Things got so dire that the NFLPA had to step in, writing a completely damning statement regarding the Jacksonville organization.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Most importantly, the player's union warned all of their constituents to not sign with Jacksonville unless things changed. Coughlin lusted for control, even at the cost of his own reputation and, of course, organizational dignity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was unsurprisingly pushed off of a cliff by a bulldozer two days later.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If he didn't set his watch five minutes ahead, perhaps he could have missed his dire fate. But what to do about his underlings Marone and Caldwell? In the usual circumstances, the people under the head honcho are usually fired off into the sea of unemployment as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not like we're dealing with outstanding talents. Marrone was never considered to be a tactical mastermind or exceptional coach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Caldwell? The guy who reached for the disaster that was Blake Bortles? They are replaceable. But this is where Shaheed Khan comes in. Khan is a very hands-off owner, as one can tell with the utter chaos that ensued over the past few years. In these situations, though, you have to blow it up. Hell, you already are with the player core, so why not start fresh without any sort of taint on the team?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The newest victims, AJ Bouye and Kaleus Campbell, traded to other AFC teams for a mere pittance of what the fans value them as. They did get rid of Nick Foles' awful contract, but that shouldn't have been signed to begin with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All the better since they probably don't know the damage report. Out of that vaunted Saxonville defense, only two players are left. Miles Jack and Avery Jones. They had an amazing defense, a potential Super Bowl contender, and hopes and dreams!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Over the past few years, one gold truth has come into the light. Shaheed Khan does not care.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's shown in how little he's done to maintain the flicker of success they had. It's shown in how he's had to react to scandal instead of sniff it out before it becomes a fire.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This will begin an era of Padre dominance. Kraler Palooza was about to begin. The transaction store made by the Padres captivated sports writers across America. Look at all of the names that they had picked up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Treller needed one more piece to load up for the bullpen. Just before the season started, they picked up an elite closer in Pryke Kimbrell from the Braves. It only cost them some extra outfielders and to swallow up the entire contract of BJ Upton.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So what I will do is use those as examples and compare them to the signatures on the ball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I first looked at the ball, it didn't have any obvious signs of not being authentic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Certain things that can be done to age baseball would be abrasion to make the signatures look older than they are or exposing it to unnatural elements such as lemon juice and sunlight. Right now, I'm looking at Mickey Mantle's signature and I like what I'm seeing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because Mickey Mantle had two different signatures.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which is good. Later, throughout the years, Mickey Mantle added a billowing shape. His M's started to look like sailboats. Do you see that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That tells me that this signature was from the right time frame, from 1951. That's good news, good news for you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Joe DiMaggio had a real heavy writing style. There's 23 signatures on here. 22 of them, without a doubt, match a player on the 1951 Yankees team. There is one signature on the ball that I am unable to determine the authorship of. And


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I do believe that this is a genuine 1951 Yankees baseball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're welcome. The value of the ball is really subjective. It just comes down to what a buyer is willing to pay for it and what the seller is willing to get for it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Got some breaking news on SportsCenter. The NBA stealing all the headlines again. Our man Adrian Worzanowski reporting Russell Westbrook on his way to Houston. The Thunder agreeing to trade the 8-time All-Star to the Rockets for Chris Paul.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the ball now, uh, still in my possession, I'm probably definitely going to hold on to it because I know it's going to just go up in value. So it's a great ball to have. I'll keep it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have a signed check by Babe Ruth for two rows of seats for the 1937 World Series.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think everybody's a Babe Ruth fan and it's one of the most sought after signatures. I'm looking to get around, uh, $8,000 for this piece. Probably the least I would take for this, maybe around $4,500, possibly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's endorsed by the Yankees World Series Fund, too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He went to the World Series game one and two. He bought seats.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, how do we know it was for, uhm, rows of seats? It's what it said in the description.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have a certificate from PSA DNA signed by Steve Grad, so I'm pretty excited that he's coming in to look at it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That'd be funny if he said it's not authentic. It would be, it would be kind of hilarious.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, does it add anything that it was to the New York Yankees? Doesn't that tell you something that it was for the World Series?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So do you still want 10 grand? Well, I was asking a lot, uhm, what he said did make sense. How much do you want for it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay. I sure thought he was gonna negotiate. I was really surprised that he didn't move at all on that figure. You robbed me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That really shocked me. I really wasn't thinking logically. If I could go back and do it, I would have probably said no. I would have said no.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Perhaps enjoy the thrills of playoff hockey or basketball. There's a reason why I've been using SeatGeek for years. It's a way to get to the game with efficiency and speed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm headed on vacation shortly and wanted to hit up a few ballparks while I'm away.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a nice visual laid by color-coding tickets from red to green on a 1 to 10 scale. I can get a view from where I'm sitting as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even then, Seakeak has been my preferred choice for a reseller and will be for a while to come. Now onto the video.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With these words, an unprecedented phenomenon had become reality.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even if they lost in the finals, they would be beloved by the hockey world. And their tale would be told for generations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But little did we know at the time an uncomfortable truth was bubbling beneath the surface. Something sinister crept into the picture.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It took many years to emerge, but the realities of this run have become apparent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This cup run wasn't the divine blessing it was thought to be. It was a curse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I know that sounds insane to think, but to come to this conclusion, you have to look at things carefully.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have to go back to when it all started in the summer of 2017.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Many jealous fanbases, particularly in Canada, felt that Vegas had a vastly unfair advantage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were gifted a cup contending team off the bat. They had undeservedly stepped ahead of teams that had long deserved a shopper for them. However, this is complete fiction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Any major hockey magazine, pundit, and even executives during that time had a unanimous consensus. The Golden Knights were going to be fucking terrible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The expansion draft had some solid pieces given to Vegas, but most of them were either roleplayers, unproven prospects, or bad contracts eaten in order to acquire futures.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Selections such as James Neal, David Peron, Pierre-Edouard Belmore, and more were supposed to be trade deadline fodder for other teams. They already did it with picks like Mark Mathod and David Schlemko.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even their owner had come out and all but said they expected nothing in their first year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was supposed to be a time where they bring fans to the arena as a novelty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The plan originally was to allow the picks and prospects they selected to develop, make the playoffs by year 3, and then emerge as a legitimate cup contender by year 5 or 6 of their existence. I.E. NOW. So what changed that plan? That part is obvious to anyone who's followed the league. They started winning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Despite their modest approach, it could not be denied that the Golden Knives had found something special.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the combination of careless errors by other GMs and incredible emergencies from those thought to be roster filler, Vegas made it all the way to the cup finals before they were stopped. They had hit the jackpot on their first trip to the casino.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They nearly got to the top of the mountain on their first try. It was a good situation. Perhaps too good to be true.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] George McPhee went through years of perpetual failure with the Washington Capitol, so having him at the helm could hopefully ground them from getting ahead of themselves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have to go for the main prize, nothing else will suffice. Their unprecedented run rapidly accelerated their windows.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They got to what they hoped would be a reality by year 6 on their first go. Vegas had to go all in. And they had to correct their past mistakes. That included Tomas Tatar.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Knights paid a premium to get him, but he failed to mesh with the scheme they were running.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But like all things in Las Vegas, you don't just cut your losses, you double down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Golden Misfits needed someone golden to show them the way to glory. And it was a way to get out of the Tatar experiment. The deed was done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The transformation from Misfits to Juggernaut was underway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had plenty of futures. Losing a top prospect to Nick Suzuki sucks, but you have to pay to play at the high stakes table. In hindsight, Vegas traded the wrong prospect. They favored Cody Glass over Suzuki. And it turned out to cause misfortune in the long run. Glass never developed his plan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Paul Stashney, a strong top six center, snatched up from the clutches of free agency, but the hunger still remains. The target is in their sights. Ottawa is having themselves a fire sale.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Mark Stone is the heart and soul captain that this franchise desperately needs. Players of his caliber don't come on the market often.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They needed to pounce. And that they did. The price was depressed, but still very rich for the blood.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Golden Knights were no longer the surprise that many were endeared to. They were a legitimate cop contender.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Vegas hadn't achieved the sweltering highs they experienced in their first foray, but expectations were all the same. Get to the cup. By any means necessary.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Three games to one series lead reinforced that thinking, but then something happened. They couldn't finish the moth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Losing in game five was fair enough. They were on the road and the sharks had their backs to the wall, but how do you explain game six?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then Marc-Andre Fleury led up a soft serve goal to cause everyone within a 10 mile radius to break things, including their spirits. But this was nothing in comparison to game 7. Things were good at first. Vegas had strangled the daylights out of San Jose.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the lead rose to three, you could hear a pin drop at SAP Center. The Sharks were dead to rights. But then, a fatal blow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's nice they still actively deny any responsibility for it, but how do you explain giving up four powerplay goals in a five minute major?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The whole fucking team collapsed! And it was their own goddamn fault for it!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even as they somehow got into overtime, you knew it was a matter of time before the whining would commence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pretty rich of them to complain about a so-called questionable call when they benefited from the same damn shit earlier in the series. But they don't want to hear about that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Vegas has been in some form of cap hell for the past three seasons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sorry Gerard, nothing personal but business is business. You know the rules of the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What was more stunning than the sudden firing was who they hired to replace him. Peter DeBoer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sure you're worried about the team regressing under Galant, but to bring in HIM? Anyone who's seen him coach in San Jose knows his MO. He'll get your team to the playoffs when you have talent. He will not win you a championship.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Too stubborn with his tactics and is consistently outboxed by the elite coaches come playoff time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sharks fans celebrated Vegas' sudden shift away from what made them great. They had all but signed their death wards.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And one that can't get past out opponents that they should easily beat on paper. This time it was Dallas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Supposedly high flying orphans of attack got clamped and put to sleep.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All the hubris in the world couldn't get them back to the championship, but they can at least call this one excusable. The pandemic fucked everything up. Everything was bought. But you know what isn't?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A 5x5 was Robbins, but that isn't the main prize. Think Defender. A core anchoring Defender. Alex Patrangelo's don't grow on trees either.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] While everyone else is afraid of fucking themselves with large contracts due to an uncertain situation, Vegas knows how to strike.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They gave him Term and AAV when no one else dared to go that far.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The current core may bitch up a storm and thrust the team right back into cap hell, but sacrifices must be made for the greater good. Paul Stashny and Nate Schmidt are yesterday's news. No one should be surprised by Knights being chewed up and thrown out. It happened with Vadim Shepachov a month into their first season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Vegas fucked up by failing to trade another defenseman or two before the season. They stashed nine of them on the roster.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Shepachov was waived to keep Jason Garrison and Griffin Reinhards, who were both waived themselves about two weeks later.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Feeling betrayed, Vadim abandoned his contract, left the team, and has never returned to North America. He never got much of a chance. And he wasn't an outlier. He was the canary in the coal mine. The true betrayal would begin after they failed again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Archandre Flurry is a strange cat. He's capable of elite play and can carry a team by himself, then lets up goals that baffle the mind. It hurt Vegas in another crucial situation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They get past a contender in Colorado, but shit the bet against Montreal? The Habs? A team the Knights should've crushed on paper?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't say it's because of D'Bor's stubborn tactics, the real man to blame is Flurry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Marc Andre got absolutely fucked over by Vegas. It wasn't that they traded him in general, it was how they did it. They shipped him off to a team he had little interest in joining for nothing. Absolutely nothing. Just roster filler to make sure the numbers added up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Laurie himself found out about the trade on fucking Twitter!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He still had mileage in the tank, yet you discarded him like he was an old cum rag. Remember that picture his agent posted on Twitter in the bubble? That happened unironically. Vegas still has that conscience gnawing away at them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sure, you may have lost your house, every personal belonging you have, and are on the brink of bankruptcy, but think of where you are. You have to keep going all in. Glories are just within your reach. All you have to do is take it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you see how insane this is? Constantly trading away the future and prospects is only validated with a cup win. And the Knights haven't come close since their first year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] May have cost them a few of their last drops of future capital and Alex Tuck, but Eichel is the future. Right after he gets next surgery.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Another huge gamble and shakeup of the core merely for the sake of doing so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sins of the past came back to haunt Vegas in 2022. Injuries and inconsistency had destroyed them from within.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Scraping away nearly every pick and prospect they had robbed them of any sort of organizational depth. Capspace came in a premium. And their almighty deity became the LTIR. It still wouldn't be enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Any attempts to try and gain more flexibility would be met with hostility.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or more attempts to fuck over players like Evgeny to Dunoff. Ready to pull a fast one on him with a team on his limited no-trade clause.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had lost around 500 man games this past year, yet nobody in the NHL worlds felt sympathy for their plight. Vegas had become a monster. And it was their own damn fault.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cancer hasn't infested one part of them, it's spread throughout the entire fucking organization!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From the coaching, to the players, to the executives, to the ownership, to the fanbase itself. Any player not deemed worthy of the Crest is shit on from a pie. It happened with Laner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He went from being reported as a season-ending injury to playing again at least three separate times. He was publicly criticized by his coach for letting the team down even though they had failed to reach their potential by the time Push came to show. It was a historic season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They missed the playoffs. While executives will blame injuries for their misfortune, that's a cop-out. This failure was years in the making.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Honestly, if they had bowed out against Los Angeles or San Jose in the 2017 playoffs, I don't believe they'd go as balls through the wall in their methods. But making the cup in their first year created an addict.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know there will be many that say that Vegas has had the most successful run of any expansion franchise in sports history, but the reality is that none of it matters without a championship. The Bills made four straight Super Bowls in the early 90s. Do you know how history judges them? As failures. Despite their runs, they could never seal the deal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] History only cares for winners, not second best.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The inaugural cup run was the curse I'm fearing it as Vegas has been extremely poor in handling it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In five years time, they've gone from a beloved underdog story to one of the most hated teams in the league.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is the torture of the Golden Knights. A torture of their own doing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ahh, this is some brilliant comedy. I love this fucking game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Years ago there were 14 races, now there's 23 races. It's growing at quite a rapid rate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's just a big, vast amount of content. The metadata and logging them and making sure we know what's on them has been an almighty challenge.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Being able to log, being able to tag, having that visibility as this content comes in rather than treating it as a backlog all the time and actually building a system that takes a weekend like we just had this weekend and takes all that, not only delivers it to our partners but we're also able to monitor


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Log and, uh, like you said, use that metadata. So we, uh, you know, whilst it's going in, we're already sort of halfway through the solution a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I take it you wanna talk business. Didn't you start this call? How about this, we'll talk over lunch. Fine with us? Can we order pizza? I'm afraid that's going to be a no, we prefer to have Chinese. That's too bad, we're in the hankering for some pizza. Okay, okay.

[Assistant] Did you get our latest proposal? You mean that pie in the sky optimistic pop piece you sent a few days ago? Yes, that one. It's terrible. Well, what don't you like about it? Yes. Can you be more specific? Have you not heard my tone? It's all ridiculous nonsense. None of this is in any way viable for the future of the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He who openeth the checkbook spoils the child. That doesn't make any sense. Your desires for a cap floor don't make any sense either. It'll crush a good number of teeth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You mean the cheap ass ones? We're just trying to protect them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are you going to play along with us or do you want to play grab ass for the next five minutes? Eat shit. So luck out it is then. We'll let you guys stew on what you've done for a bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hello? Players Union, how are you, old chum? The hell are you calling? It's one in the morning. I just have to tell you all about this place I'm at. Exclusive world-class resort. Every desire fulfills all the foreign delicacies you can eat. Once this all clears up, we should take you here and make you pay the bill. You called me to talk about a resort? No, of course not. I just wanted to talk to you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, I'd love to talk, but I'm in the middle of something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] About time, you fucking call. We had to take care of some legal things. Forgive us for the lack of communication. Seems to be a trend. We'll make it up to you. We have a proposal ready to send over. You mean it's not an application to Walgreens this time? Not at all. Here, take a look for yourself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hmm, no, no, this isn't gonna work. Why not? One, this is scribbled on a cocktail napkin. Two, none of this is what we were asking for!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Come on, we got rid of the request to get rid of Super 2 Arbitration. We stop bitching about age-based free agency, what's your point? You're not compromising enough! You aren't either!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How do you feel about downsizing the bloated minor leagues a bit more? It's not minor, you're talking about hundreds of jobs lost. Didn't you say you were trying to improve conditions for minor leaguers?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bringing in a mediator didn't work in 1994. It gives us the feeling that we're trying not to try. No. We don't approve. Ah, ah, ah, boys, you're not negotiating in good faith. And you are? It's almost as if you want this game to die. You know we can still play games while we negotiate a CBA. What the hell's the fun in that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We prefer something a little more Machiavellian in our negotiating. Let me guess, you'll delay spring training. Bingo!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why thank you, I've been practicing. I just want to say one thing before we do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If we don't reach an agreement before the end of the month, we will be cancelling games. Is that clear? Ooh, Thread, I'm so scared. You should be. Here's our offer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Come and join us and we'll give you ten bucks off a Cuban cigar. We've been very clear on what we want. We want rookie salaries to increase at a level past inflation. We want a salary floor to prevent blatant tanking measures.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't say we're not negotiating in good faith. Here it is! Hmm. Hmm, I see, yes. Well? What the hell do you think of it? Oh, you're talking to me? Sorry, I was trying to figure out today's wordle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This proposal is terrible. Get rid of it. So are you going to budge from your offer? Very well, we'll change our proposal. We'll up the luxury tax threshold by a million dollars. Oh the fu-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll be like bleeding to death. We can survive. We've been more than good with your bullshit players. We're fine with shedding a month or two of games to send a message.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We will break you! What are you gonna do, force us to negotiate? That's a fantastic idea! How do you feel about buying a timeshare and baseball hat?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can we go home now? Home bet you are home!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't you want to play games? Look at all the progress we've made!

[Assistant] $25 gift card to Best Buy? It's easily more than we bargained for. And the answer is... Fuck no, this is a slap in the face. We're done with this charade.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I came into the pawn shop today to sell my 2016 Chicago Cubs base. This is the granddaddy of baseball memorabilia. I'm looking to sell the base because I'm not a big Cubs fan and I think that there's Cubs fans out there that would really appreciate this probably a little bit more than I do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The seventh through ninth innings of game two, which marks the first time that the Cubs won a World Series game since 1945.

[Assistant] Swimming has featured at every Paralympics since the first Games in 1960. The Paralympic pool is the same as the Olympic pool, measuring 50 metres in length and 25 metres wide. Race distances range between one length of the pool, 50 metres, to eight lengths in the 400 metres and the relay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Athletes compete in freestyle, backstroke, butterfly, breaststroke, medley, and relay events. Competitors can start the race in various positions, standing or sitting on or beside the block, or starting in the water depending on their impairment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Swimming is open to athletes with a diverse range of impairments. They're categorized into three groups. Physical impairment, visual impairment, intellectual impairment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The physical impairment group is subdivided into 10 classes. Lower numbers indicate a greater impact on swimming performance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Visually impaired swimmers have assistance from tappers who warn about the approaching wall and the need to turn or to make certain of a firm contact at the finish.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're classified S11 to 13, but lower the number, the greater the loss of vision.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Watch out for those in class S11. They're required to use blackened goggles in all their events to ensure their competition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Different strokes require different skills. For that reason, the sports classification is subdivided into S events for freestyle backstroke and butterfly and SB events for breaststroke. SM stands for the medley events.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Athletes require speed, strength and immense determination to compete at the highest level.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dude, he's one of the best directors there is today. Like, our rivals-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Blade Runner 2049 was great, uh, Prisoners is a great movie of his, Arrival of course, yea, no, he makes good stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, cause we were signing him and getting him for a vet min, like for basically very well, right for this year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because like, it's 39, right? So basically Russell Wilson, regardless if he doesn't, like he's getting 39 million dollars from the Denver Broncos. So theoretically, he could go to a team signed for like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Someone asked before about the Saints, and like, the Saints have been in this perpetual work, a jillion dollars over the cap, right? So they keep on kicking the can down the road, now there's rumors about Michael Thomas, we'll see where that goes. Michael Thomas also fired back on Twitter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the point that I'm making is that the Saints are going through this year after year because they're like, well, we're not going to rebuild, rebuild. We're just going to try to stay afloat, right? We're just going to try and like bring in these guys. We're going to renegotiate contracts. And for the Broncos, I feel like it makes sense because if you are going to rip off the band-aid and it's going to suck, don't get me wrong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you're going to rip off the band-aid, listen, this year, we're not going to be that good, but next year when we have picks, we have money again, then we can, you know, start going forward. So I imagine they're going to draft a QB. I imagine that's the direction they're going to go in unless they don't have a guy they want or somebody trades up in front of them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But this is, hey, rip off the band-aid now, we're gonna suck, but we're not gonna be doing this every year. And she's like, all right, let's try to make it work this year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's no downside. If he sucks, okay, he sucks. He basically lost no money. If he's good enough to be your starter, then Kenny gets to sit a year, learn behind a veteran, and if not, then he comes into camp and he competes against Kenny Pickett and Kenny Pickett can beat him out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. So he's going to want to start. So I don't know if that's going to work out in Pittsburgh, but there's no doubt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, dude, like, it was awesome, like, I've wanted to go to the Combine for years, uhm, just to kind of like experience what it was, and just like learning about what the Combine actually is was an experience in of itself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's basically all like the media members, coaches, scouts, just like getting drunk every night and eating steak. And so like it's like a ton of networking. So like I met a ton of people from like all over. So that was really, really cool.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just to like have that experience in talking to these guys and like just having that perspective of they're like 20 year old kids, which is tough because like they are larger than I am.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it was, uh, it was really cool. It was just a deeper look into the game and then just like the connections, meeting people and you see like how freakishly athletic these people are. It just blows my mind. So it was really cool for the content, but it was just, uh, it was an awesome experience just to be there, especially as I've been trying to get there for about a decade.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He uploaded like a four hour edit of just like lo-fi to like combine drills.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Caleb one, yeaah, but see, like the Caleb one is one that bothers me though, because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was kind of a well-known thing around the Combine. Like that was just something that was getting repeated a lot of like, oh, like this is why. So like, that's also why Caleb wasn't working out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because he knows. But like the questions that were asked to him...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though this is already understood and kind of known and they're like pivoting it and be like, no, are you, are you afraid like to compete against, you know, other prospects? It was just weird, man. Like there was like, there was times where like the old school media, like they were in there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they were asking these questions that one was like straight up disrespectful in my opinion. And then the second thing was just they would ask like the same questions like Scooter and I were standing next to each other a bunch of times where they're like, Hey, have you spoken to like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Saints, right? And they're like, yeah, I've spoken to just about every team here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, not even 60 seconds later, like, have you spoken to the Saints? Like it was that kind of thing where I was like, dude, like what are we doing out here? So I really enjoyed the time, like actually talking to the prospects because like off camera and stuff, everything was just like, dude, like congratulations. Like these guys have been working their ass off since they were like six years old.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right? And like now they're at the combine about to go into the NFL. So it was cool to just like connect with players like that, especially when they're getting like the same, you know, questions every single time, or it's just whatever questions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There is some stuff that Bo Nix did that I was really impressed with. Like, he's an athlete, dude. Like, he's super athletic. There is some, like, just watching him a few times, like, damn, like, he can zip it. Like, he, it was impressive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was like an, I don't know about like Scooter can speak to this, but like there was an aura of like you are being given like this insane access. If you do something, like you're gonna, like you're gone. Like it is gonna be bad. Like dude, even for the 40, because there was a couple of times on the sidelines, cause they just didn't care. Like they were warming up and they were like throwing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, like, sideline grabs, and like, you would get hit by like, a ball, or like, there would be a guy running right at you, and there was no one to stop you. Like, there was one time when I was like, 14 years old, I went to the Bahamas, and there was a, like a swimming pool thing, and there was a hammerhead shark in it. And there was no signs. That's what I felt like the combine was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeaah, he might be first round now. It's faster in person. If that's possible. Like just, it was nuts. I was sitting right there on the sideline when Worthy ran by me and like the crowd just went nuts immediately. But yeaah, it was, uh, that is a fast man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we were told, like, the entire week, they're like, oh, like, there's gonna be a whole, like, we're gonna get there early, there's gonna be a whole period of stretching, they're gonna demonstrate how to do this. That did not happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I ran it once and it was a 6-2-9, which I was like, good god, that's horrible. Then I ran it again and it was a 6-2-6 and I was like, alright, I'm going to try it one more time and I ran a 6-2. And that was the first drill.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So like we did that and then we had to go to all the other trails, but I didn't drop a ball though. What was Izen?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was feeling it until like yesterday. Like yesterday, like I was like, damn, like in my quads, like I was feeling it. I was like, I haven't sprinted in a while because I usually just run and then that's it. But yeah, I haven't sprinted in a while. So that was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was the thing. I think I've done a broad jump in like high school once in gym class. So like, I just, I had no idea about technique and I'm watching guys and I'm like, I have long ass legs. Like, why am I not doing better? So I just stayed until I at least like hit a decent marker and I was like, okay, I'm done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, I'm not gonna win this week. I got $92.36.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I think we just add on to the Taylor Swift punishment. Okay. Right? Cause like, you just kind of make it easier for Brandon, you know, you just consolidate it. So we already have, he's going to buy the dress. He's got a speak in Taylor Swift lyrics.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But out of Bill's, uh, video today, tomorrow's gonna be the vlog for the Combine stuff, or at least the 40 stuff the other night. And, or yesterday I should say, and yea. That's it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I mean, it's about Heinz Field and the Steelers are all about cooking and smelting. And, uh, I expected this to be honest. It made the most sense. You need a veteran quarterback to try and push Kenny Pickett and be a low end starter. I think there'll be a chance for him to start, especially with training camp. Uh, so, um, yeaah. Steelers nation. Let's ride.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Honestly, you could probably drop, like, draft a wide receiver in the first round and then go second round and draft somebody like a panics or, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, it's not ideal, but at the same time, it at least isn't a massive reach. Like I feel like the Denver's would do if they dropped the quarterback at 12 and we know Denver likes to reach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the thing with Tyron Smith, like he's a great tackle when he's healthy. Like he's been dealing with a lot of ailments the past five or so years. And I think that's why they cut him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See, I disagree. I think Russell Wilson has brought in more to push Kenny Pickett because apparently the organization still believes in Kenny Pickett or like they think Mason, but the thing with Kenny Pickett.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And his stats look pretty bad. But there are two things that he does well. He doesn't turn the ball over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's clutch. He does well in the fourth quarter on our final drives. And I think that's why they're still trying to give him this leash. If he didn't have those, he'd be gone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think what they're bringing in Russell Wilson for us to push him in training camp, really get the best out of him. And if he goes, he struggles his first couple of weeks, you have a quarter, you have a low end starter that's ready to go, knows the system. He'll do well in the play action that Arthur Smith's going to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this is a run heavy offense. You have to remember with five touchdowns, most of the time when they were close to the goal line, they ran it in the end zone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's why he only has five passing TDs last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Would you rather have that? It's an upgraded backup over what they had last year. Mason Rudolph is, I mean, he deserves a second chance somewhere else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Raiders. Raiders. Science. Vikings. What?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Vikings if they don't bring back Kirk. Yeah, they don't bring back Cousins, which who knows if they're gonna. Well, the question is, Kirk, there's a lot of heat towards Kirk Cousins going to Atlanta or maybe Washington again. So the question is like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's very skittish in the pocket. His problem is he like always has a flight mentality. He always runs out to his left. That's always been his real issue and sometimes he'll run into sacks. That's been an issue of his for a while and I know, I don't know if he's just like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Afraid because he's had a bad offensive line the last couple of years or is it because he's trying to do too much? That's the question you're really looking forward to. And you can't properly gauge Kenny Pickett because Matt Canada was absolute garbage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and the last two times, I mean, he looked well against Cincinnati, then Arizona, he had the concussion and a few other things and he hadn't played, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's apparently a power bottom, and uh, he's not good with handies because apparently it might get a little too small.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, just don't tell that to Mike Tyson. He'll straight up knock you out in one punch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So 5 talked about Josh Eisen and immediately got censored? What happened?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, dude, apparently Rich Eisen is the secret code word.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nah dude, you probably did better than me, trust me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As I said, I thought Rich Eisen was the secret code word that just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, that's uh, he's asked to man, you know. He's gotta get that grind going.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Honestly, that's a great thing. That's a new record. Uh, I'm 97-15, so I did not win. Thanks a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sorry, my mouse is being weird. What are you doing, dude? You're not even... Wow. What a start to the show. Boom!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will do a review of that. I love new stadiums. Yes, I'm seeing it now. I will, I will look at it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, losing is not, or winning is losing right now, for sure. And Tommy DeVito for as much Hopium as the fanbase is snorting off of their, uh, glass tables. Tommy DeVito is actually


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, like, whoever thinks like this guy, like, he's really just not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All that good. He's just serviceable. We played two awful teams back to back. You know, the, the commanders are butt crack. They are openly tanking. The Patriots are openly tanking. Like Tommy DeVito is just a dude that's there. And if you watch the film and if you've watched these games,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, they've won them, but it's been hard to watch. Like, he got sacked 86 times. His internal clock is somehow worse than Daniel Jones. Like, he, when, when there's a breakdown in, in the decision tree, like, he freezes like lot's wife. Like, it's not good. So, everyone that,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you're a Giants fan and you don't really know football, great. You can love Tommy DeVito. You know, you probably have some connection to him. If you actually watch film and you're seeing what's happening, like, it's rough out there. It's rough out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, because you don't know, you have to draft well. Remember that one year, like the Giants beat the Commanders on the last day of the season, and it did upset me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, you know, we, we lost Chase Young in the draft and really it wasn't that bad in the end. We got Andrew Thomas as a consolation prize. So it's just, it's how you draft. It really doesn't matter what order that you come in. And the Giants, you know, I think they're going to start stacking capital at some point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I, I think that they're legit. I, I, I'm gonna say this now. Right now, was this November 30th?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Teams are scheming to stop this brotherly shove madness.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] San Francisco or a team that's gonna see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Eagles in the playoffs have a secret way or are figuring out. They are breaking down film.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do we just, you know, do we come around from the line? Do we do something different or they're figuring it out? It is going to get stopped.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I think that they're legit. I think that they will at least, you can just pretty much count them in the NFC Championship game. Like, who's better than them? Like, who is better?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What would you, just real quick, I want to go on a side. What would you say is the most fraudulent team in NFL history that got so far that you're like how?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, I have a joke. I was gonna say thanks for making me feel like, uh, I'm on the schoolyard again and they're picking basketball players. Like I'm just out. As the Jewish Asian kid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's really hard not to look at someone's body of work like Dak. Even Patrick Mahomes, if they, you know, finish strong, can be looked at. Jalen Hurts, honestly the MVP of that Eagles team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is Jason Kelsey. Like that dude is wrecking shop and he is allowing Jalen to do things. Obviously Jalen has to make the throws, but if you were to tell me who the most valuable player on that Eagles team is, it's Jason Kelsey. Cause if he goes down, that team is cooked.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He would, Champ Bailey was so good. He was so valuable as a corner. Like he would just shut people down. Like just shut them down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeaah. I mean, Philly is going to aggressively, especially just from a value standpoint, if you're the player, right? Like, why wouldn't you instantly want to go on to a contender if you have those options?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just want to speak for Tom that that was a hilarious game on Thanksgiving. Like finally those Lions got like a matchup where they could win on Thanksgiving. I think it's been six or seven years that they lost in their building.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's been rough and then the Packers come out gunning. Like, I mean, Jordan Love, I have not seen a Jordan Love like that this entire year. First play of the game goes deep. Like, Matt LaFleur is just letting it fly and it was just brilliant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll go first. The cowboys are absolutely going to smoke the seahawks. The seahawks are fraudulent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, they have not played well, the hawks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, lately, and uh, I think this is an easy pick. Easy, Dallas win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wouldn't say, I mean, no win is easy, but it's, it's, you can spot this one from a mile away.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's not a bad assessment, because you're just counting on your scrubs being in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes. Alright, are we gonna do this countdown?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How about a Brazilian wax? A little tank wax there. All we do is film.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, all you do is we film from the neck up while it's happening.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I haven't heard Brandon sing, like make a song in a while. We haven't, we haven't made him do a little music act.

[Assistant] A little shadeling. Shadeling. Oh, wait a minute!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ooh, should we make Brandon wear a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders outfit and then be Dolly Parton and then sing, um, Jolene for us?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have not punished him with the Kelsey Taylor Swift act yet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Should he have to dress as Taylor Swift and make references to Taylor Swift during the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have to go to Walmart in the Kansas City. You have to walk at least and don't pick some empty aisle. You have to film people reacting to you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coming out after that, if Will would get off his ass and send me the script, which he always, Brandon, doesn't he do this to you? He's like, I'll have it by tomorrow. And you're like, yeah, tomorrow is Thursday and then he'll send it at like one in the morning on Friday. And it was like, technically that was Thursday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, and I'm just like, yeah, and he always tells me that he's going to do it and he's like somewhere else.

[Assistant] Welcome everybody to a wonderful Thursday edition of Clickbait.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sports. The most perfect weekend of wild card football occurred and we are all here to dunk on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One, Scooter Magruder. I am your Walmart Joe Coy, Five Points Vids. We are joined by this man right here, Tom Grassi. How you doing, Tom? I'm great.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He is so good. Look at him with that jacket on, looking dapper. We are also joined by Brandon Perna. How you doing out there in Colorado today?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hi, Scooter. You look sad, buddy. You're gonna talk about it, buddy. You look terrible. I'm gonna talk about it. You don't look happy. I don't want to talk about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He does not want to talk about it. So what we are going to do tonight for this show, we are going to all get about a one minute roast in on you, Scooter, and then you will be allowed to respond. We'll just mute you the whole time. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna call on Brandon first. Why don't you give us your best minute of material to roast Scooter and the Dallas Cowboys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, we will let Tree go next, Tree. We're gonna end with Tom, by the way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was not prepared for a roast. He was not prepared.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just want to say a few words. A few words. Now I just did a video where I went through all of the playoff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Probably started, you know, a career by now, maybe had one or two children.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You've never seen the Cowboys in an NFC Championship game. You've got a substantial 401k at this point. And you have not seen the Cowboys even get close.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was that the Cowboys, they looked or was it Monday? Was it Saturday or Sunday? I don't even remember. It was so good. Sunday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You look great. AT&T was poppin'. It was a sellout, of course. And you folded up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Over. And so quickly. You did make a little comeback effort at the end of the second half, or first half. But that was just kinda pure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, the score, it was so much worse than the score indicated. Yeah, it was within two scores. That game was a blowout and the best.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Done really well putting together a roster that can win games in one season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The regular season, not the post season. And it's just so indicative that he does not care about winning a championship that he will just bring back McCarthy. Remember you stuck with Jason Garrett for how long was it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Seven year, eight year, nine years, I believe Jason Garrett was the head coach. Mike McCarthy is going to be there for 15 years and no Super Bowls.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, enjoy Scooter. I love you. But, uh, the pain is real. The pain is real. And I will now throw the football down to Tom Grossi. It's your turn, buddy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So if, if your team did not play the way that they normally play, right, who is to blame for that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is supposed to get his team prepared, who is supposed to orchestrate a game plan that plays to your strengths and there was none of that. Why did Dakk not throw the ball deep once? That was...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He might as well have just thrown into double coverage because it was so ugly to watch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But that, that's, brings me back to the point is that if, if Mike McCarthy and Dan Quinn, and I don't even know who your offensive coordinator is, uhm. Mike McCarthy pretty much. Yeah, if it's on Dan.
