Seahawks Defense & Kenneth Walker Dominate Patriots To Win Super Bowl LX

Hola, bienvenidos to a Greenlight Pod Super Bowl wrap-up show. Just kidding. Welcome to the Greenlight Super Bowl reaction show presented by BetMGM. Big thank you to BetMGM for putting together our headquarters. My legal crew is inspired. Sorry I'm a little late. I was learning Spanish. Big thank you to BetMGM for putting... You guys are laughing through my fucking ad read here. No. No, no. Big thank you to Ben MGM for putting together our headquarters for Super Bowl week. We hope you all enjoyed the content we put out and get excited for all the content to come. Our week in San Francisco at Super Bowl 60 could not have been possible without the great support from Zone, Eros, Smirnoff, Create, Silver Oak, garage beers and a number of other factors as well. That was a hell of a week, guys. Hell of a week. We're back. There's still ice on the ground here and snow on the ground everywhere. Dude, like it's starting to melt. Like there's sheets of ice falling off my house right now. It was 14 degrees this morning. Should be 50 degrees tomorrow, so we should, you know, be able to touch some grass. Hit the river maybe? No, I'm not going to hit the river. But I'm in San Francisco already, man. And that was some good weather out there. That was a good time. It was beautiful. I think I'm going to stick to my San Francisco diet of burritos and garage beer for the foreseeable future. Yeah. Durs from Workaholics, I saw he, like, commented under the carousel that the New Heights party came up with from the thing. And he was on there, and he was like, my body is now 65% garage beer. And honestly, like, there were some parties, I'm sure, elsewhere. But Jason called me last night for some reason, and we were talking, and I was like, man, I was like, thank you for throwing all those parties. I know it felt like we were stalking you, but there were just no other places that we had to go. We went to what was the Red Saloon? Red Jack Saloon. Red Jack Saloon was great. Shout out. Shout out to Kelsey's for putting on a great party on Wednesday night and then keeping the fun going. I am here with my man, Dr. Fax. Yep. I got Nolan. I got Cowboy. What's up? Bo's inside the computer. Sotted. Looks good. Looks rested. Yeah, I feel rested. Bo took a red eye back on Saturday night. I know. We said goodbye. Bo, you know I made it out Saturday night? You're going out Saturday night? Yeah. Tell me tales of your travels, Chris. How was it? It was good, but, you know, like, when you have that crossroads where you're like, okay, my flight's super early, I go to bed. or just keep it going until the flight. And that's kind of basically what happened. I think I got like a combined six hours of sleep in two nights the last couple nights. You got to sleep on the plane? I can't sleep on planes, bro, especially with people bombing the plane. I don't know who that was. Who was that? I mean, we were getting hit with a warm front in the back of that plane, dude. Dudes were running the train on that toilet. That was unbelievable. Yikes. Yikes. No guys weren't making it to the toilet. Conveniently, one person on the plane is not in the room. Bro, when we got out the Uber, when we got out the Ubers to get to... Super Bowl champs is the chai right under there. We're talking about farting on a plane. That's how you know this Super Bowl is cinema. Bro, when everyone got their stuff out the Ubers when we got to the airport and be lied to this bathroom. I was like, you guys are all sicko. Sicko. I get dropped off at the Airbnb to leave for the airport. I see my man Ralph. My man Ralph is in a full-out linebacker stance. Dry heathen. Dry heathen. And the funniest thing. As hard as he can. As hard as he can. And, like, a little bit came out, but, like, really, like, nothing's coming out. and he's just dry heaving. I was just like, damn, bro. That's tough. And he didn't even go out. I know. That was the craziest part. Last thing I saw of Ralph was I was like, hey, man, good on you. You're staying in tonight. I'm jealous. And the first video I see in the morning is him heaving on the sidewalk. Anyways, I really want to talk about the football game first, and then we're going to get to all the fun shit as well. But, guys, we just saw a very interesting Super Bowl. And I'm not saying that tongue-in-cheek. I thought it was entertaining. I did. I like defense. I happen to like defense. I also think it's just fun to see certain things kind of come to fruition. You know, you've got two weeks to wait for this game. You're like, damn, this team, I think they should win, but can they go belt to ass? I thought the path for the Patriots to win this football game was simple. They had to force turnovers. You know, and knowing who the Seahawks have been at times this season, I guess maybe some people thought it was possible, and I'll give you that, it was possible. There were opportunities. I'll mention a couple of them. You know, Marcus Jones right off the rip breaking on an out route. They were undercutting those out routes early and often, and it almost felt like they were like, hey, make him throw the ball over the middle field. We're going to take away the out cuts and that sort of thing. But Marcus Jones was in man coverage with Barner on maybe the first drive of the game. It was the first drive of the game, and the Seahawks are kind of playing with tempo. They wanted to jump these guys because they knew what we didn't quite know, which is going to be a bloodbath, right, if they can score first. They scored three in like three minutes. They kind of just were willy-nilly about the first drive. But Marcus Jones undercutting that route and just barely, I don't know how he didn't pick it off and go the other way with it. It was a great play except for the fact that he didn't make it. And there were other opportunities for them in the first half. I think obviously Gonzo before the half, when you're down 6-0, and Gonzo played great, right? Played great. He is who he is. He is who he thought he was. But when you're down 6-0 and Sam gives you an opportunity at the goal line, like probably got to make that play, right, if you plan on winning the game, right? Because 6-0 is way different than 9-0 in that football game. And then the other one for me that I don't think is going to get as much burn, and Chason, he had a great year, and this isn't the reason they lost, but if you're digging for opportunities, they would have had to win the game. He came scot-free on a blitz. I think they were maybe down 3-0 in the red zone. And that game was gridlocked for a while early, and you could see how Pat's fans thought they were going to win that game. Chazon came off the edge and got a great shot on Darnold. The ball goes in the air. It's out of bounds. It's an incomplete pass or whatever. It's floating around on turf. In that moment, had he gone for the ball, I think he would have had a chance to get it. And if you get that ball off him, you know, we've seen stranger things happen. Maybe somebody's running the other way with it. We will talk about the paths and put them to bed in a second. But I just wanted to say there was a path for them to win this game. it just depended upon them taking the football away multiple times. And when I look back at this Super Bowl in 10 years, I'm going to think about the defense. Both defenses were awesome, right? I mean, both defenses deserve to have their head high. I mean, one of them is a championship group. The other team kind of felt like they got stood up at the altar yesterday a little bit. But I think one thing I remember is not spectacular quarterback play, Definitely bad quarterback play on one side. It kind of, the dam broke for Drake May, and we'll talk about why. But Sam Darnold didn't have to play a perfect game. Sam Darnold played fine, right? Sam Darnold played his best football game in what turned out to be the real Super Bowl two weeks ago. And that game against the Rams is obviously an important part of this run. Him taking care of the football throughout the entire playoffs. This was a playoff that was marred by turnovers. You know, the outcomes were dictated by people not taking care of the football. Edelman on our show, I think it was Edelman, me and Noel were talking about this. Edelman said, he goes, Super Bowls are less about the plays people make and more about the mistakes people do or don't make. And I think that really rang true yesterday. and Sam Darnold continued that trend throughout the entire playoffs of not turning the ball over. You can say what you want. I saw things on TV today where people were, you know, the reaction of the game is let's pick how many quarterbacks we'd take over Sam Darnold. Not today. I'm not doing that today. Sam Darnold's a fucking world champion. He deserves every bit of the victory lap. A team moved on from him last year for a guy by the name of J.J. McCarthy. And I thought that playoff loss, against the Rams was a perfect example of when your offensive line is decimated to the point where you really can't even operate. And so I'm not going to get too, you know, into the legacy weeds with Sam Darnold or, you know, I'm not going to kill Drake May. I think he's – I used the word stud last night, and somebody, you know, I'm sure could say, well, what did he do to prove that in the playoffs? I think anybody watching this year can admit he's a bright young player. He's going to be here for a long time, and they can build around him. But they had the 31st best wide receiving core in the league. Consensus probably in the 28 to 32 range, if you ranked them, going into the season. They didn't trade for anyone. It didn't magically get much better. Guys got a little bit better. Their connection got better. They had left side of the offensive lines, all rookies. We'll talk about that. He was under siege, but he didn't play well in this game. And I think it's going to be a learning experience for him. It's early enough in his career where he can come back from this. I was more disappointed with the Patriots' game plan offensively. It felt like, to me, they didn't know they were punching above their weight class. And once the dam broke, that Seattle defense took center stage. That's what we need to talk about first, guys, the Seattle defense. Bo, impressive. Very good. Yeah. I mean, you said it, man. I'm like, but if you were to tell me that they would get, what, six sacks and, you know, guys by the name of Demarcus Lawrence and, I don't know, fucking Leonard Williams wouldn't have any of them. Like, I'd be like, wow, that's crazy. I mean, I was expecting them to ball out, but Byron Murphy, dude, I was really, really impressed with him. He's a stud. He is so twitchy. So, yeah, I mean, dude, it felt like a defensive game for a while, and then it's like, holy shit, the score's 29-13. In the fourth quarter, it got a little happy, but I don't know, man. This game was a little different than I was expecting to go. Like, I thought the Seahawks would kind of, like, I knew that they would be tough. I thought the Patriots would put up a couple more points. Like, I just really was a defensive game, Chris. I don't know. Classic defensive win. If you're a defensive team, like, you go in with the mindset, Hey, guys, we're going to start this game, and we're going to knock this fucking run out, and then we're just going to go to work on them. And if you kind of know that, like, as a front, hey, this is our objective, and then you start the game exactly how you want to. Like, they didn't get Stevenson going, so you start knocking that run out, and you start feeling like, hey, we can peel our ears back early and really start getting going, and that's what they did. And this was a big miscalculation for me. I alluded to the Josh McDaniels thing, and maybe he's blinded by the fact that he's a great coach. I thought he'd be a big reason why they might be in this game, you know, but it turned out to go the other way where it almost felt like because he'd been there so much, they were overconfident. Like, it felt like they didn't know that last week, although, you know, maybe they're looking at all the explosives that the Seahawks gave up against the Rams, and it looks like candy, right, and you're hunting these explosives. but it became pretty apparent early in the game that Seattle was on fire. That trend from two weeks ago where they were dominant on third down continued in this game, and some of the third downs were very long yardage because of a Derek Hall sack or that sort of thing. Getting behind the sticks for them was a problem, and it wasn't penalties. There were not a lot of penalties in this game. And so to me, the miscalculation was let's try to play this game a little bit more in phase. our goal should be third and three, third and four, third and two, or not having to get there at all. More quick game, more screens. Kind of confounding to me that they didn't kind of understand who they were fighting. Yeah. You know, it's like. Got to use that aggression against. Sun Tzu said it. You got to know yourself. Know thyself. Yep. And you shall not fear the result of a thousand battles. Mike Waffle used to make us repeat that like soldiers in our D-line room. He'd say, you shall not fear the results of it. And we'd all go, a thousand battles. So, like, honestly, dude, this is a Sun Tzu-type game. Like, who the fuck do you think you are, dude? You got one of the worst receiving quarters in the league. Not worst. I don't want to say worst because they play well this year, right? But it doesn't have, like, a bunch of flashy, like, star players outside. You don't have an offensive line that was going to hold up great. Like, we knew that coming into the game. Man. And McDonald. Not like that. No, but McDonald, the wrinkle was we're going to bring pressure early in the game. And we mentioned all those D linemen. You know, it felt like for a minute they got the rookies coming off of Mills, this guy Mills who didn't play until late in the season. He's a rookie. He's walking Wilson back into the lap of Drake May. That was the first time that they finally got like a four-man rush opportunity. But the real kicker for me was Spoon, dude. Witherspoon, who's a great player in his own right, if he were just covering people and playing DB. He's their Swiss Army knife. They got two of them. They got a really big one, and they got a more normal-sized Swiss Army knife. But to have a guy like that that can blitz, he beat both tackles on up and unders over the course of this game. I think he had like six opportunities. He probably had four or five pressures. And the design of these blitzes for McDonald, who said, we're going to bring pressure early, we're going to get them rattled, in the second half we'll play more coverage. That first third down that Spoon got loose on, it was a great design. right they walk Ernest Jones up on the on the center you've got two three techniques we used to call that a heat alignment right so you get that heat alignment with two three techniques they're not even going to get blocked because they're not staying in they're popping out to cover the middle of the field it's basically a sim pressure double edge and so what you get is an occupied center and two guards who are standing there with their dicks in their hands and they're not blocking anybody and it's two for two on the right side and it's two for one on the left side. And Nick Emanwari goes up and under and freelances on the contained side. Spoon still runs him down. So it's a great design. You got a great blitzer. I told this story last night about Malcolm Jenkins who used to come to our D-line Indy on a weekly basis. We'd be like, what's up, Malcolm? Come do some drills with us. And he would come in there and work on being a pass rusher. You can tell Spoon, although he hasn't blitzed in the better part of four to six weeks, like this was a wrinkle they saved. A lot of blitzes. He's still working. He's doing the work. Hey, I might get my three, four opportunities, but when I do blitz, I'm going to be the best in the league at it. And he looks like that when he comes on these pressures. Yeah, and that was a really cool wrinkle to see there, especially because Mike McDonald on the season is like 25% blitzer. He doesn't do a ton of it, and he's like 23% in this game. I think because those blitzes were so effective, it felt like so much more. But, yeah, of those 23% blitz rate, over half of them had pressure coming from the slot. So that clearly was a big wrinkle for them and the blitzes, man. I mean, the Seahawks, they allowed only a 15% passing success rate when blitzing. Pats only had two successful pass plays of those 13 blitzes they faced. So that's a pretty sad thing. If I was a head coach and I had a blitzing defensive coordinator, I would say that's what the fuck I want my pressures to look like. I never want to see these things where safeties are late getting down. You know, they're five yards from the last scrimmage when the ball gets snapped. Like, timed up perfectly, disguised perfectly, wait until Drake may set in the protection, then come down. Like, they were just on top of everything, dude. They were really on top of everything. They had help in the middle of the field when it was time to have help in the middle of the field. And in the run game, they were expectedly very good. And so when they got in these third-down situations, it kind of felt like Drake was under siege. But I will say he missed some throws. I mean, in a game like – you could have won that game and played, like, mediocre and still found a way to win that game, right? Because for a while it was 6-0, 9-0. Even out of the half, 9-0. He's missing, you know, in cuts and that sort of thing, like kind of short arm and stuff. I do wonder if his shoulder was, you know, was a little dinged like people talked about. But I don't care what the circumstance was. Seattle was the better team, and that's what showed up. And Will Campbell, I want to talk about Will because I know at some point he had 14 pressures. He gave up a million in the playoffs. and this is where I want to give the quarterback and a young tackle some grace. Shoot him some bail. They played, I'll shoot you some bail. They played the top five best defense in the league. I mean, this has got to be one of the toughest stretches to get to the Super Bowl for an offense in the last 20 years, and they did it, and it was ugly, and Will Campbell gave up a lot of pressures. I will say this. I don't think off the rip Will Campbell's an incredibly talented tackle. He was never a talent guy. He's a football player, right? He doesn't have erector set arms, go-go gadget set arms. He doesn't have those. He's not like a massive human being. He's not the quickest human being of all time. A lot of people say, well, maybe he's a guard. He played pretty well for a lot of stretches this year, and I want people to remember something. And this is just because he's a young player, and I got empathy for young players because I was a young player once. He played some of the best rushers in the league, Benito, Anderson, played the Seahawks group, played Tule, played Mack, played all those guys. He also had a grade three MCL late in November. And so not an excuse, but I'm just, I got no, I'm like Tom Brady, I got no dog in the fight. I got no horse in the race. I don't own stock in Will Campbell, but I'm just going to tell you the truth. The guy was probably dinged up during this run, and I think his technique could use some cleaning up. I think he needs to develop into a counter-punching offensive tackle. You can't be a puncher who's punching above guys' hands with short arms. The short arm thing can matter or it can't matter. It depends on how you build your set out and how you set people. And I think his outside – it was like Nwosu attacked him on one of the first plays and ran to the sideline and told Derek Hall, like, speed to power. Speed to power. Get him vertical, get him turned, and his outside shoulder is open. I'd like to see him not even punch at all. Like, I mean, he's got really nice feet. You mentioned, like, how he can kind of throw his hands, and that's where you get feast or famine sometimes with offensive linemen. It's like I think he has quick enough feet where he can kind of get back to his set point and wait a little bit. But to your point, Chris, like, let's not forget, it's a fucking long, long football season. You're a rookie in the NFL, and you play the fucking defenses that he played off an injury. Like, let's give him some grace, man. Like, all he needs, I think there was someone in the chat asking me about Will Campbell, if he should switch to guard. I made some comments earlier in the season about how he would be a fucking great guard. Listen, like, that might be all well and good, but he's a fucking left tackle that just played in the Super Bowl. You know what I mean? Like, he's a good left tackle also. Just give him some time to get his fucking body right and kind of make that, you know, like the switch is going to flip for him or he's going to kind of figure it out and make a huge jump. And I think it will come at some point, like, you know, middle of next season or whatever. Like, okay, this is a damn good football player. Like, to your point, Chris, let's give him some grace. Long season, a lot of good opponents, and he's been banged up, you know. I wish he would have stayed and talked to our media, not to do the thing. But yeah, and to throw him some more grace, like to piggyback what Bo's saying, like, Will has been going nonstop for probably over a year. He probably started training this time last year, if not earlier. So if you think about that, for him going fourth overall, he's literally, he's probably had, I would think, a combined maybe two weeks off since this time last year where he's not focusing on football, focusing on getting better. And the kid's probably tired. Like, you go through a season like this, most rookies, you don't get to the Super Bowl your first year if you're fortunate. And to be playing as many snaps as he's played this year, and like we're saying, whether he tweaked an injury, no one's really 100% healthy by the Super Bowl anyway, but he'll be a great player. And then this is something where he has a lot of tape to learn off of. And it'll be a long offseason for sure. It'll be a long offseason. But that's one of those things where, like, he'll think about this. And hopefully it'll give him the extra while he's training this offseason to be like, you know what, I'm going to get much better. That'll never happen to me again. And I know I had a bad game. But I still play. I still have an amazing season. and it might take time for him to step back and look at it overall like that, but it's going to hurt for a while. Yeah, I mean, it's going to hurt for sure. And like I said, he left the building last time without talking to the media. Allegedly, I didn't see anything from him. But the only thing I would say, and, you know, as a rookie, I had to stand up there after, I think, 14 losses, maybe 15. Now, I never lost the Super Bowl, right? I don't know how that feels, right, as a young player where you give up 14 pressures or whatever it is. But you do, like, one of the things I like the most about him is his attitude. And, like, don't lose the accountability factor. I know you're an accountable guy to your teammates and to the coaches, but there's a lot of fans and people that are like they want to hear you own it. And whether that's a weird thing to want or not, like, hey, you can gain a lot of respect standing up there and saying, hey, I wasn't very good today, and I promise to be better. And I think he will be better. You have to reinvent yourself as a football player, not just like midway through your career, late in your career. Like when I was a rookie, and, you know, like I wasn't bad. Like, you know, I wasn't a bad player, but I wasn't playing like number two overall pick. And I could win inside on up and under moves, and I had a good long arm and that sort of thing, twitchy, but I didn't know how to get the edge. I played a 3-4 in college. So I was a four-eye in college, moved out to the edge, and it kind of felt like being left-handed a little bit sometimes. Somebody taught me one thing in the offseason. It was like the swipe. It was the one technique. And that's why it was great to be in a room full of veterans, which now you don't have as many. He's got Morgan Moses. He's got some guys. But like somebody taught me a swipe, and it opened my whole game up. Because what you need is you need a fastball. And I watch him set right now, and I'm like, I don't know what his fastball is from a set standpoint. Somebody's going to teach him something. I texted Lane this morning. I was like, get him to fucking O-line masterminds, dude. I mean, there are so many great resources for young players. And like you said, he had a really good year, all things considered. It was a bad month. He'll be back. So, listen, the Pats, design flaws, I guess I would say that If you expected them to compete for a Super Bowl to start the season, they're in the middle of a build. They spent a lot of money, and they nailed a lot of their free agents. I thought Milton Williams in this game was fantastic. He just couldn't finish some of the plays. And to go back to the Sam Darnold thing, like versus inside pressure versus middle pressure, I said this. Sam didn't have to play perfect to win this game. He made some great throws. The throw in the red zone to Cup to get him on the board early was a great throw. The throw backed up out of the half to Shahid with two linebackers in his face. Great throw. A lot of the plays, even like a check down to Barner, backed up. This became a field position and possession game. And he played according to that script. Avoided the turnovers. Made you hold your breath once or twice. But did the things that they needed to do to win. Didn't turn the ball over and avoided pressure. and a lot of these free runners, whether it was a blitzer or a tackle beating Bradford inside, he avoided that stuff. And, yeah, it wasn't flashy, but I'm not going to sit up here and be like, well, how many quarterbacks will we take over Sam Darnold today? Because yesterday and through the playoffs, he was the best one, you could argue, because of the things he didn't do wrong. He didn't do things wrong. He outplayed Matt Stafford in the NFC Championship. Okay, like he outplayed the MVP and then he beat the guy who was within a vote. So don't move the goalposts now because I heard this year that Drake May was better than anybody. Now, we all know that's not true, but he played really well. I would even argue that he had a great argument for MVP. If you regular season and you make that award based on true value to the team, Like, take that guy off the team and replace him with a backup. What's the difference? I mean, Stafford's throwing the ball to Puka and to fucking Devontae Adams and three tight ends that can catch the ball in an offensive line that plays together. He's got a coach who's been the showrunner there for years, won Super Bowls. This guy's throwing to Stephon Diggs and, you know, some guys who got better as the year went on. So the point I'm making is he beat two really good quarterbacks there. They beat the dog shit out of San Francisco at home. They earned home field advantage. Sam did what he had to do. So shout out to him and shout out to Cooper Cup, who was a security blanket at times in this game, man. He was really your – And in a game where JSN doesn't go off. JSN doesn't go off and leaves the game late in the game. Like you needed somebody to make some plays for you, tight ends, Cooper Cup. How many people have won two Super Bowl MVPs? He was trying to block that up. Brady's done it. He's been in pairs for the rest of his life. We haven't even mentioned the Super Bowl MVP. Let's talk about the Super Bowl MVP real quick. Kenneth Walker. Love it. It became apparent in the second quarter that Kenneth Walker was going to win the Super Bowl MVP. Easy. You knew this game was going to be kind of a rock fight. And you knew it would be a game where I kept throwing out Shahid. They didn't want to punt him the football. Very smart on Mike Grable's part. But I thought it became apparent early because there was such pressure on Sam Darnold when he dropped back to the ball. They had to get out of trouble with the run game. And we talked about the bounces. The support players, not just the edge setters, had a hard time with this dude. And Collinsworth talked about his patience. When you are patient and you hide behind an offensive line, support players lose you. They lose your intent. They get nosy as the down goes on. And, you know, it's easy to just make it about the edge shutters and say, what the fuck were they doing? but at times the edges were set with somebody's body or with hat presence outside. These support players had a hard time with Kenneth Walker. It's almost one of those things where you've heard this, guys, before. A defensive coach will tell you throughout the week, hey, man, he's going to bounce everything. Yep. And he's going to bounce it quicker than you think. Yep. I don't think they realized how quickly he was getting on the edge. And he deserved MVP as a running back. The last one was Terrell Davis. I texted you last night and said, I don't think there's been a few. There's only been like seven. Yeah, seven. So this is very impressive. And when you consider a guy that, like, they lost their bell cow in Charbonnet, and I mean no disrespect putting it in quotes. I'm just saying there's a lot of people that wanted Kenny Walker to get the ball more, and it took an injury to give him the ball more. And when you back up to a guy like Helani, that's his name, right? Yeah. He's not a heralded player. He doesn't have a lot of experience. It's like, you're going to get the fucking ball a lot. And this guy was – he did have some nice plays. But this guy had to carry you through the whole playoffs. The run game getting going for them in December on was a huge key. And so for me, like, because, you know, that Kubiak offense, if you don't have a run game, you don't have a pass game. Right. And so he was great, man. Shout out to Kenny Walker. Is that patience teachable? Like, can you learn it? I don't know. I don't know. That reminded me of fucking – what's his name? Maybe on L a little bit. Yeah. Yeah. You know what I'm talking about? When Caldsworth pointed that out, he's kind of standing so upright. But then there are other times where he'll jump cut immediately and bounce it. That makes it really hard for edge defenders because it just throws your rhythm off a little bit. Like, you'll set the edge, peek inside or something, and then boom. You know, I was happy to see him get MVP, man. I like him. He's a good player. It can be learned. It takes really good vision. It takes really fast processing. Yes. Make those split-second decisions. But the real reason it works is he's got so much burst to where, like, if you don't have that burst, if you're trying to burst the line that slow, you're going to get dead right. You're going to get stuck. Yeah, you stop, go, acceleration. He goes near to 60. Exactly. Boom. And it's one of those things where he's doing that tiptoeing. The skipping. When he's doing that tiptoeing, you as a fill guy, if you try to mimic him with that, he's bouncing. And it's like not too many guys can go from dead stop to 60 miles per hour trying to set an edge. And that's another thing. The Patriots have a lot of great players on defense. And, again, the safeties are really good and everything. But they don't have a Nicky Manwari. They don't have a guy that can fill like that from the second level. And their backers are not that good. Like, you know, we all love Spillane. But, like, you know, the whole group is not a great group. And, you know, Ernest Jones is all over the field. And I said this last night. He might be the biggest, I mean, it was like a catalyst kind of moment. It was a turning point for this defense when he showed up there last year. And you talk about leadership, this group has a standard, dude. You can tell watching them, they have a high standard. And, you know, they were tacking the football up like three scores. Like I'm just, the little things that like being in a defensive room and knowing like the things that get you out of boys and things that you try to culturally ingrain in, guys. They do all those things. And John Schneider did an incredible job with this roster, man. It seems like they don't have any misses. Name a miss on the defensive side of the football from them in the draft or in free agency. Well, and that's the wild part. I think only four guys on the defensive side of the ball are drafted. The rest are whether they're trade for, like Ernest Jones, who got traded twice before he made it to Seattle. Josh Jobe on the Eagles last year. There were guys that maybe didn't fit right on other teams, and look at them now. The guys that they drafted, Derek Hall, Byron Murphy, Woolen, Spoon, Eman Worry. Kobe Bryant. Kobe Bryant. And, you know, like the Lawrence thing, the Williams thing, I mean, like these guys are all not only great players, but you can tell great culture guys, dude. Great culture guys. Lawrence told what? He was talking to Dez Bryant, and Dez was like, why are you leaving? And he's like, you think you're really going to do something? He's like, I'm about to go go to the ring with Sam. And he said, Sam Darnold's going to get it done. He's like, he's going to get it done. Which is the whole thing. Like, you see Ernest Jones consistently. Even last night where Pukka Nakua was taking a shot at Sam Darnold. That's funny. I love it. You know, Ernest. No need for that. All the things Ernest Jones could be getting into at that time of the night. Yeah. Defending Darnold. He's defending Darnold because they love the guy. And, like, you know, I talked about it in preseason, the way JSN talks about him. I was like, man, it kind of sounds like they love him. Yeah. And, like, I just – I was a player. Y'all were players. You know what a quote – even when you read it on a piece of paper, you can tell what it means. And, like, you were reading quotes out of there that were like, no, we fuck with Sam. Yeah. And meeting Sam last year at the Super Bowl, he's just a great dude. You could tell in just a short interaction with him and somebody I think we've all rooted for because you hate seeing guys end up, I hate seeing guys end up on the ass end of, you know, the draft process where, sure, you're making a lot of money, but, like, the general public thinks you suck at football. And there's a Super Bowl winning quarterback in there. Granted, you've got to have the pieces around you. Guess what? That's true for anybody. And so I just thought it was a great month run for this guy. And it makes him bona fide, dude. And he's about to have another kid. Now, listen, in a year, if he plays really poorly next year or something, like, is he Mahomes? Is he one of these guys that, like, hey, you're guaranteed a place at the table here in the next five years or whatever? Like, no. I mean, if he plays poorly, people will be talking about it. But, like, this year, last year, he's played 90% of the time brilliant football. And I love that for him. So just awesome, dude. Awesome. What was kind of interesting as I scroll to find it but I think the Jets coach this was Sam Darnold 101st game and the Jets coach was a Todd Bowles said that maybe in 100 games we might see if we have something. Right. Like after Darnold's first win in the Jets, and the Super Bowl win was it was 101st. Yeah, I saw that. Because they play a game, somebody asked him after, like, can he be one of the all-time... Yeah, it was Todd Bowles had this to say, trying to calm people down after that first Jets win. We won one game. I can tell you after about 100 more of them, whether we have one or not, talking about Sam Bowles. Literally, Todd Bowles... Right now, it's a little early. Todd Bowles, every once in a while, will do something so fucking brilliant. Every once in a while. And this quote was like prophetic, dude. Literally 100 games later. So 52% pressure rate, highest in the Super Bowl since 2008, or 18, sorry, six sacks, zero explosive runs. I think when you look at it, like this defense is going to go down as one of the best defenses in Super Bowl history. I mean, like performance-wise, right? I don't know that I put them in an all-time great category, which is fine. Like we just had Michael Bennett in, and Michael Bennett was like, you know, compared to the LOB, and as Michael Bennett goes through the levels of the, you know, I was like, man, I forgot who played linebacker for you outside of Bobby Wagner. I was like, K.J. Wright. And like, oh, you know, you had every DB was like borderline Hall of Famer. You know, there were a bunch of guys on this team that were retreads, which is Mike McDonald deserves a ton of credit, dude, a ton of credit. How many defensive coaches win Super Bowls in today's NFL? and this is really great for defensive coaches because it gives, you know, I'm not sure there's going to be a run on them next year, but guys like Jesse Minner got hired this year and that sort of thing. This gives those guys hope. Now, the other side of it is you're going to have to replace the offensive coordinator because he's headed to Vegas, and I thought this offense suited them perfectly, and that is what comes to the territory of being a great defensive head coach. now I think they're going to be fine I think culturally they got it made there I think they got it made from a roster standpoint but that is part of it but McDonald getting all these guys the Joves of the world you know to play big like the Drake Thomases of the world to play big like guys that you know aren't household names and you know they even have guys like I haven't mentioned Jaron Reed's name I want to mention Jaron Reed's name he's been a good player in this league for a long time and obviously he'd been a Seahawk before but like just getting all these guys to buy in the unselfishness. There was a shot of that defensive line sitting on the bench, going into the fourth quarter. At that point, they've given up like less than 100 yards in the game. And that is what it's all about, sitting there in a blowout, just like you can't wait to tap back in. It's like a feeding frenzy, and it's on the world's biggest stage. It does not get better than that, dude. It doesn't get better than that. And I'm just so happy for that group because they were unselfish the whole year long. One guy in the defensive line room can ruin the whole vibe. Absolutely. You can tell they didn't have a single bad vibe guy in that room. Yep. And so, but when you look at the legacy, talking legacy here, I think this year, and I said this last night, a lot of fans, I don't want to hear, okay, if the Venn diagram, there's crossover in the Venn diagram. If you were the guy complaining last year and years past, I'm tired of seeing my homes. I'm tired of seeing the same teams. Let's get some parity. And then you got parity this year, and you don't like it either. Then maybe you don't like football because I liken it to, like, when you get caught smoking cigarettes or something. I've heard some people's parents make them smoke the whole pack. You like cigarettes? Smoke the whole pack. You want parity? You're going to get a 29 to 13 Super Bowl. That's kind of ugly. And I think that's what this year was. I'll always remember this year for how interesting it was. You can't have everything. Not every Super Bowl. Last year's Super Bowl wasn't competitive. And there were two great teams in there. One of them was a great team. The other one probably shouldn't have. I think it's more that a lot of people, if you're a casual fan, where watching the Super Bowl is a bunch of casual fans or not really fans, it's the fact that there wasn't, I think, enough household names on both teams for people to be like, this is exciting. I think that's part of it. It's just that if you ask a non-casual fan to name you a couple of Seahawks players, unless they're from the West Coast, they probably can't do it. Yeah. I think. And I think I hear people saying that, like, who the hell is Ernest Jones? Everyone keeps talking about Ernest Jones and how good he played. And it's just like, if you don't know who he is, it's just like, ah. Yeah, you obviously don't watch football. Exactly. Like, it's also a product of being a West Coast market. and playing in that 4 p.m. spot a lot, playing in Sleepy Fox games. If you watch the Seahawks all year, and, like, yeah, I picked them to win the West, so I'm proud. I'm proud to say I knew they were going to be really fucking good. But if you watched them play this year, they made a lot of teams look like, teams that had a lot of success, look helpless, look like they didn't know what the fuck to do. Like, you know, I think back to that Jacksonville game. That was like peak Jacksonville where Jacksonville was starting to really be good. And you remember that game? They go down to Jacksonville, and it's like 20-12. It's like they're king ugly. And I love a team that can just win ugly if they have to. Yes, the defense, the offense was statistically top five in EPA and all this shit, and they were incredible, right? Like the numbers were incredible. But don't tell me you watch this team to watch the offense. You watch this team to watch that defense make people look helpless, like real wagons. And when you really took a step back and you look at the score in this game, like they did this, this score, like without JSN being a real factor in this game. He was a factor in the way they rolled coverage to him. Yeah, exactly. But other than that, it's just that once he got hurt and he wasn't in there, it wasn't like he did anything that really contributed too much to the point total. So just to step back and think about that is just how good the Seattle team was. Look at some of these. And we're not even talking about special teams. They're punters. Punting was a huge field position. Having them backed up and starting drives when you're breathing, when you've got your goal line breathing on your neck, that is not something that you want your quarterback and your offense to be doing too much in a Super Bowl game. And the way they were able to get the punts where they needed to, the field guys getting down and down in the ball inside the five, that also was impressive. Seven punts by the Aussie Michael Dixon, 47.9 average, three downed inside the six-yard line. Only two were returned for a total of four yards. Australian kids. Phillip Rivers took this team. Yeah. Phillip Rivers took this team to the wall. Yeah. I'm looking at Seattle's fucking bow is hurting, bro. I'm just looking at his screen sometimes. Dying. Dying. You don't need any commentary points. I'm sitting over here ready to tap in. Do your thing, bro. But, like, honestly, I'm looking at it. I Googled, first off, you Googled Seahawks schedule. Because that was the one thing that I disagreed with when Julian was like, they haven't beat anybody. I'm like, that's just the New England guy and you talking. But, like, looking at this schedule, man, there were some interesting games, dude. You know, Indy took them to the wall, 18-16. You know, they just. That was Phillip's first rip, right? Yeah. Yeah, that was. Go to Seattle. People were pointing out last night that Phillip did what he did against the Seattle defense in his first start, and Drake had 50 passing yards at half night. Maybe he should be the guy. I'm just joking. No, I do think Drake's got a bright future, man. I do. And he's not going to lose his coordinator. They're going to keep building. And I thought they had a bad game plan. I thought Vrabel did not situationally coach the game in a way that I would have. The third and five draw play is probably not going to work against this group. And I know maybe you're afraid to do it, but fourth and one in the third quarter, I know the dam might break if you don't get it, but the dam broke anyways. And there were other situations as well. Not going for two late, that didn't matter at all because you're playing like Cheeks, but you could have made that one an 11-point game. And also, before the half, I thought they could have used timeouts earlier. Yeah. The Steelers basically drained the last two and a half minutes on their way to a field goal that made it nine-plus possessions. Like, he didn't use – were able to use the timeout, so there was like 20 seconds left. All that reflected a team when you – it's the game plan juxtaposed to how they called the game situationally just didn't make sense. Because the game plan to me looked – and part of it was, you know, they get down early, but really aggressive route concepts, you know, trying to get it back in, like, one play, but they never accessed that area of the field because they didn't have the fractions of the time. Right. And so, like, if you don't believe in your offense that much, then, you know, then why are you trying to be so aggressive? Why not try to inch down the field? You know, because that to me says we don't even want the ball before the half. We just want to get out of here. Right. You know, and there were situations like that where, you know, I know it's a field position game. I know it's a possession game. But not Vrabel's best game, but his hands were kind of tied. This roster was so much better. This roster was so much better. What do the Patriots need to go get? Is it a wide receiver? Do they need some offensive line help? Definitely wide receivers. Definitely need to draft a tackle, right, because Morgan's getting up there in age. And, like, you need insurance just in case you do have to move big boy inside. But you need a tackle no matter what. I think personally – I think they're an S player too. Huh? An edge player. Edge player for sure. Linebackers, to me, like stat. And I think you need another corner. I think you need another corner. I'm sure there's people. I'm not in the draft room, but I feel like that's the menu I'm sending somebody out to the grocery store for. And if you're the Seahawks, other team, people have been talking the last 24 hours, how good a job John Snyder has done putting the team together. and also the fact that they've got $73, $70-something million in cap space heading into the 2026 season. Do you think they, like, is Kenneth Walker, he's going to get a big deal? Is it with the Seahawks or is he slanted some? He pointed out the charges last night. But, again, like, we go back to the charges. Like, what are they going to do with Harris? They just drafted a guy. I don't know. But either way, Kenny Walker, I mean, talk about, like, a dream scenario. That's how it's done. where that's what they do down there. But it's a dream scenario because... I don't think they're going to pay him, though. Like, I don't think they need to pay Kenneth Walker down in... You're talking about the Chargers, right? Yeah, in L.A. for the Chargers. Yeah, I don't think they need to pay him, dude. They can take a fucking no-name running back, like an old reach route or somebody. Like Kamani Vidal? Sure. Yeah, I think he would pay it back. kettle or they get lucky and get the discount and guys want to jump from miami to play with mcdonald well that's what i was saying like man i go jump from miami i mean to go back to la yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah take like hey like i'll come out there i love the hann idea the first thing i said when mcdaniel got hired was like can you bring him mcdaniel just gotta make that call but hey, bro, I know you want this much, but come on. It's in college, man. It's great. He's on a contract. What if Walker follows his OC to Vegas, becomes a Raider? They already got a lot. I could see him going away. They draft a guy in the top five. It's Burr or something. So we've got, oh, look, the Bears. The Bears, that'd be fun. And that's the team. Denver for sure, dude. Denver for sure. I mean, I don't know that they run as much outside zone as some of the teams we're talking about, but, like, Kansas City, this is an AI overview. Teams with needs for running backs. Thanks, Grok. So I like some of these. Titans have a ton of cast space. Titans, sure. I mean, what he proved is that he can be the feature back, dude. Titans would actually be kind of fun. Hell yeah. Cam Ward. Hell yeah. I know some people didn't watch him, but Cam Ward is fun. You know who I would? Hey, with all the rumors that's going on down in Houston, I'll be trying to snag him because he runs like they need a Mixon type. Yeah, because if Mixon's not going to be back. If he's not going to be back or if what's floating around is really still affecting him and he's not going to be the same person, I just feel like that offense was a lot different when they had a stud running back. No bueno. Did you hear that? No bueno. Everybody knows what that means. I got to read some ads here, guys. Let me read some ads here. Let me read some ads. Español or English? No. No. Which is international for now. Yeah. If you haven't signed up for BetMGM yet, use bonus code GREENLIGHT, and you'll get up to a $1,500 new player offer on your first wager with BetMGM.

You take creatine, Nate? I do, now. Yeah. You know who doesn't take creatine? Who's that? Rob Ninkovich. You can tell the way I threw him around in San Francisco. Hey, Ninko. You impressed me. My back still feels it, having to wrestle with that motherfucker. He always wants to wrestle, but he doesn't know how to take Create creatine. So it doesn't just help you stay strong. I really have always had trouble keeping weight on. Even when I played, I used to go weigh in with like two-and-a-half-pound plates. But now I don't have to do that. I just take Create gummies. And I've increased dosage like to the 7 to 10 grams a day range. I'm not a doctor, but it's one of the most studied supplements of all time. And it's not just good for muscle retention, for performance in the gym. You know, your boy's 40 now, so I really need my creatine. It's also good for cognition. I really will take it sometimes in the afternoon and feel a lot better. You know, that last night before I went out on like fumes, I popped a couple of create gummies. I felt nice and strong in the club. I felt wide awake. I felt like cognitively I could have done anything I needed to do. I thought I could have solved a fucking Rubik's Cube. Joe Tooney walks up. He's like, hey, can you do this? Yeah, I took my gummies today. So anyways, it's a good habit. I feel great when I'm on it. And these are tasty gummies. Healthy brain, cognitive effects as I get older, very important. Muscle maintenance, keeping this physique. You know what I'm saying? Your physique looks great, Chris. Your physique looks phenomenal. Thanks. You too. Thank you. Thank you. No problem. So, yeah, you've heard from many. We'll hear from more later. So we talked about the punter, Michael Dixon. We do need to give a little love to Jason Myers. Five field goals, two extra points in the Super Bowl. finished this season and postseason with 206 points, becoming the first player in NFL history to score 200 points in a season. You think you feel like you got slighted? For MVP? Dude, honestly, no. But if it weren't for Kenneth Walker, he's high on the list. He scored the most points in that game. I understand, but Kenneth Walker got him in position to kick those. I hear you. I'm just saying, if you're just a guy, though, you feel like a little bit. No, I don't think the kicker feels slighted. I think maybe on a couple of those long Kenny Walker runs, he's like, fuck, it could have been me. But no, that's key, man, to have a guy like that. We talked about how special teams are going to be important in a low possession, or a lot of possessions, but possessions being in a premium field position type game, you've got to cash in. and it looked to me like Seattle was content kicking field goals as long as they had to because they didn't feel like New England could do jack shit what was I going to say oh do you want to talk about the halftime show now yes see see see there's an alternate green light feed for those of you who don't want to hear about the halftime show, dude. For those people, before you click this off, just listen to this. For all you don't do that. No, for all you people, oh, he's not a citizen, he's talking bad and all this stuff. Look, here's a list for you of all the people who have done the Super Bowl who are not U.S. citizens. Rihanna, there was no issue. The Rolling Stones, they're not citizens, there was no issue. Paul McCarthy. I have a feeling I know why Paul McCartney and you two, no issue. Coldplay, not citizens. No issue. Shakira, not citizens. There you go. No issue. The who? I'd make Shakira citizens. The Weeknd, not, he's not a citizen. The Weeknd's not a citizen? He's from Canada. He's not, he's not a citizen. And there was no backlash, no, like, why are we doing this? no alternate Super Bowl halftime show any of these people were doing there. I just want to... They did perform in English. All of them. They did. So what? I agree. I agree, but you led with like the like... But it's just that, but everyone's saying, oh, like... Here's the problem. Here's the problem. I like Bad Bunny. I think Bad Bunny. I think Bad Bunny seems cool. I don't know any of his fucking music. Whatever it is, he's got it. Here's the problem. Here's the problem for those people. They wanted it in English. Okay? I don't need it in English, dude. I don't care, dude. I'm not listening to half the words on it. When did... Okay, and I said this in a social... Going in a circle is the same in any language, Chris. That's true. But that's not even it. Like, for me, it's like, truly... Now, Prince, legendary halftime show. I remember for sure Dr. Dre and them from a couple years ago. That was fun. Most years, I'm like, my favorite acts aren't in here. Nobody in this room probably listens to more country than me. Maybe Tanner. I listen to a lot of fucking country music, dude. My Spotify trend is real Republican, okay? But I can listen to anything, dude. I can listen to anything. And I also don't give a shit about fucking what's going on at half. at the half I go I hit the porch or grab some food and I thought most dudes did that like honestly I've just never heard so much contention around what a halftime show was going to be and so I'm just hoping it's not dog shit so I can't in that case I can't defend it and would you look at that it was wildly entertaining now if you didn't like it that's fine I totally get it like there have been halftime shows that I was like man I don't like this halftime show I'm going to go watch something else but there has never been an alternate halftime show due to the fact that people's like super mad about the guy and it's messed up because you're taking away from the puppy bowl bro the puppy bowl is supposed to be the alternate halftime oh that's crazy if you're gonna flip channel don't like dogs shame on you guys for that man and for those people that did flip over to the alternate halftime show because bad bunny wasn't in english and had no subtitles they turn on that uh alternate show and it was bang to bang to body body body body. Yeah. What does that mean? He was lip syncing. Did you catch that? Also pre-recorded. It was bad. But we don't need to talk about that feed. That shit was lame as fun. Okay, yeah, for sure. Hey, listen, last night on my show I was like, I really hope it was good. Because I'd hate for you to miss a great halftime show like that and then go watch something else and like it'd be bad. I hope it was good. I watched it back. It wasn't very good. But I don't know. But but fight, fight. But but like I'm like, damn, the people that hate politics the most way want politics in their concerts, bro. I did not see the bad bunny thing is political. I saw the bad bunny thing is pragmatic, dude. It's pragmatism. And some of the biggest pro business people are anti business when it comes to the NFL. They're trying to grow the fucking game. And, you know, some of the players that I heard were polled about it, and, you know, some of them I'm sure a lot of offensive linemen were like. Anonymous NFC source. Yeah, anonymous. So I have a feeling of who a couple of those guys might be, but the point is, like, this is. You want the game to grow? You're going to make more money. This is the biggest streaming artist in the world. Like, I understand pragmatically why they did it, and to boot it was a fucking really well choreographed, cool visual halftime show. Like, if I was on drugs, which I wasn't, I would have been like, man, this is dope. The plants are people. People. You know, there's, like, people getting married in there. Like, you're running around. Like, it was like a Broadway show, which I've never been to. You had Lady Gaga. She gave you some English. But I said this last night. And listen, whatever you're into is whatever you're into. But most white guys I've ever talked to like big booty Latinas. and so I'm just imagining trying to be the alpha male party and being like man fuck this I'm going to watch Brantley Gilbert I'm going to watch Kid Rock he looks like a fucking skinny meth head let's watch him no there's big booty latinas brother I gotta admit something I thought early Kid Rock he had some good music yeah only God knows why and all the first album, Devil Without a Cause, the name of the fucking album. Yeah. But, you know, I like Ted Nugent songs too and he's batshit crazy. I like Stranglehold a lot. But the whole point is like, I just can't imagine being so incensed about a halftime show that I'm going to set another one up, make it shitty, and go watch it, dude. Like a lot of people watch that halftime show and that halftime show that I saw last night on the field was actually pretty good, like objectively. And I didn't think it was divisive either. Was it divisive? the equivalent of like setting up your own social media that's shittier just so you can kind of, you know what I mean? So you can like anonymously dump on people? I'm talking about a burner. I'm talking about Truth Social. Oh, okay. But I thought the end of it was dope. Like he had the American flag. He was like, we're fucking America and we're not fucking America. After that show. But then he's got all the other flags. I think it was dope, man. I think it was cool as fuck. who doesn't like puerto rico man people vacation there and such i thought it was a good i thought it was a good show man i also wanted to the chat's been pointing it out too but as a you know a cameraman the camera work in that halftime show was the production was phenomenal production was fired it was so good yeah like it might have maybe sucked from if you were there in person it was all ground level but like on tv it looked fucking awesome yeah i thought one of our old teammates mike brown he was at the game and he was like he was sitting third row and he was like the show was awesome but he's like was it better on TV because he's like from my viewpoint he's like it was good but he's like you couldn't really see everything that was going on while you were there and I was like I definitely feel like the way the production was from the TV standpoint where they were going in and out with the cameras it was for TV as it should be who were the halftime halftime shows who's the last 10 halftime shows Kendrick was last year. I thought this was better than Kendrick. I did, too. And I love Kendrick. I love Kendrick. I fucking love Kendrick. The Kendrick set was amazing. Yeah. I thought it was better than Kendrick. Serena was crip-walking. That's sick. Yeah, it was. I supported. Ricky Martin, though! He brought Ricky Martin down. Ricky Martin. I was like, is that fucking Ricky Martin? Is that bearded Ricky Martin, bro? What's going on? That takes a lot of creatine gummies. He looks fucking. I haven't seen Ricky Martin. I was a little disappointed. I thought my man Cruz would be on that set somewhere. Where's Victor at? No, but you know who was there? Alex Earl. It was like she was the only white chick out there. I was like, well, how'd she get up here, dude? She got ties. No, but that's crazy. Imagine being Braxton Berrios and being like, damn, what the fuck, dude? The last month has been insane, bro. Like, what? See how life comes at you fast? Okay, so you had Usher. Usher. There was Rihanna. Rihanna was pregnant during hers. She didn't move around. I don't remember it at all. I remember Dr. Dre and Sniff Dog and M. That one was thick because it was just rotating through. Hit after hit. And then The Weeknd. These alpha male types, you're telling me you were locked into The Weeknd? The Weeknd was fire. He was. I like The Weeknd, but you're telling me Maroon 5, I'm sorry. Justin Timberlake, cool, great. Justin Timberlake the second time because the first time, you know. Oh, yeah. That was a lot. I remember that one. I was in the Lady Gaga one. The world in a frenzy over a nipple. Asking about. Oh, no, I was in the Justin Timberlake two one as well because I remember Alshon's famous quote. Yeah. When they had him at media day and they were like, how do you feel about Justin Timberlake doing the halftime show? He's like, I'm here to play football. He goes, I mean, he's a great artist, but he'd bleed just like I'd bleed. He'd go through emotions. He's like, I could care, honestly. I couldn't care less about the halftime show. It was like the longer the interview went, the smaller the reporter shrunk. And he just tried to get out of it, and he was like in a tractor beam, and he goes, so how do you feel about it being so cold here? He goes, we play indoors. It doesn't matter. It's a reporter probably like, fuck. I think he was like, I think this is all so stupid. I wish it just came out the day before the game. Yeah, he was. Yeah, dude, for me, honestly, like, I have political sensibilities, but this wasn't political for me. Like, for me, I just enjoyed it, and I was like, man, it's cool. It's visually a good show. But for some people, everything is political. So hence the second halftime show. and they got 6 million views so they're everywhere walking among us walking down the street I'm like wonder if that guy but the regular halftime show got what like 140 like 140 yeah yeah for sure I saw some people like man you gotta let the NFL know we're gonna let the NFL know like how'd that go the last time dude I thought the NFL was canceled, dude. I thought people weren't watching it anymore. The ratings just keep going up. Oh, y'all don't want to watch it? We'll just get Latin America to watch it. You guys do realize we're doing more and more international games every single year. So, NFL's not going anywhere. Nope. Well, they are going somewhere. They're going all over the world. All over the world. That actually is. Who do you want to see next year's halftime performer? Okay, if I could do a halftime show, it would be like Stapleton. Yeah. Right? Like, I'm white bread with that for sure. But, like, I also don't care. You know, like, so I would say Stapleton would be sick. I think Billy Stranger's halftime show would just piss everybody off. I hate bluegrass, dude. I'd be like. He'd just be up there with an old-timey mic. He's laughing seven days. Yeah, that would be incredible. Is it Atlanta next year? No, L.A. next year, Atlanta, 2020. Atlanta in 2027, just give it to OutKat. Has it been a Frank Ocean halftime show? Who? No. He'd be good. He might have been featured in one. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I don't think he's really performed in like. Many years? Many years. And the last time I think he did a big performance was Coachella, and he didn't have a mic. He just walked around. Yeah, they're probably scared because he'll be willing to do something. But if his first performance back was at the Super Bowl. Could you imagine, though, if you had the visuals that they have access to now, if Pink Floyd could have done something in their prime? Led Zeppelin? Like come out to pigs? Yeah. They just play the alarm clock in time. Like right at the start, freaks everybody out. Dog, I'm telling you, Pink Floyd would put on such a great halftime show. So while I agree, there are people that I listen to that are underrepresented in the last 10 years. like that also like that's what going to concerts is for. I'm watching a football game dude. I'm going to make a sandwich. I'm out on the porch. That's it. Anyways somebody said red hot chili peppers in the uh. That would be tight. Wouldn't mind Dua Lipa neither would I. Oh yeah Dua Lipa. Yep. No question. I also think there's a percentage of dudes who's pissed because they're like man I'm sitting on the couch like I think my wife thinks Bad Bunny's hot. I think there's like a solid percentage of a dude that's worried about bad money. Put our kid rocks. You got to put kid rocks, ugly ass on. Don't feel threatened at all in this situation. All right. So let's hear from, should we do the. We're going to hear from Zone, and then we're going to hear a little, a call in. We have another call in. Oh, great. Okay.

Yo what up Green Light Hey it your favorite NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Busch again I getting ready for my own Super Bowl the Daytona 500 coming up this weekend So I guess I have to take a rain check on that live chat Still wanted to dial into the hotline and thank Fax and LeGarret for pulling back the cover on this weekend's paint scheme. Man, it looks amazing. I'm looking forward to that car out on the racetrack and seeing it go fast. Fax, I saw you rocking that 8 jacket out in San Francisco, man. Welcome to the team. That's cool. I'm getting ready to head to Daytona here. We'll get ready, as I said, for the Daytona 500, hopefully my first win. I'm looking forward to 2026 and being this year, my year, putting that number eight zone Chevrolet to victory lane. Speaking of special moments, Chris saw that slideshow on Instagram the other day.

Maybe we can start with the LG out in Phoenix next month. Peace. That would be pretty good. Shout out to Kyle, man. Shout out to Kyle. Speaking of Peelum, this is Kyle's car. So this is not clean. Pretty clean. I'm not going to lie. Got to get in there. Shout out to Kyle for lending us his car. We were down in Arizona. We did a nice little promotion run with Zone. Me and LeGarrette Blunt. LeGarrette was the lime. I was the jalapeno. We did a nice little mad dash at the Waste Management Open. We were up early. It was fun. It was exciting. We got some good seats. We weren't first. We didn't finish first in the mad dash, but we didn't finish last. So that was good. And then we went over to the Circle K where a lot of fans, they got to see the actual car that Kyle Busch is going to drive in this weekend in the Daytona 500. And what I didn't know until this weekend is how cramped up you really are in that car. Those guys, like it is a tight squeeze. And then they're like, you have something, like obviously for safety, your neck. I guess I didn't know that they don't have a lot of range of motion at all in that car. It's just their hands. Like, yeah. Like, the way, like, how much you can drive. But it was fun getting to see the car and getting in and out of the car. I mean, I don't think being my size or LeGarrette's size is suitable for being a representative of the average driver. This is a sweet looking car, though. trying to get out of this car. I'm glad I didn't rip my pants. Yeah, for real, dude. Now I'm thinking about it. Yeah, that was a pretty athletic move by you. Yeah, or pull a hamstring, man. The jalapeno lime car. Jalapeno lime. Shout out to Kyle, too. Good luck this weekend. It'll be fire to see the jalapeno lime eight car. Yeah. Get a checkered win. No, that's awesome. NASCAR in person is fucking crazy, dude. It's crazy. Super fun. I mean, like, those cars. And we were down there, like, with another guy who's a racer and another guy who's on one of the pit crews. Yeah. And just talking to them all day was cool. We were just asking, look at me, look at me, we were just asking them crazy questions, just like, what kind of injuries happen? And they were telling us, like, dudes get hit by the cars, like, a lot. Like, the guys in the pit, like, in the pit, Like if you're standing in the wrong spot when the cars are coming in hot in the pit, guys get bumped a lot. Yeah, dude, I don't want to be in the pit. There's a lot of former football players in the pit. I remember going to one of those races and running into like five guys that were like, hey, we played against each other. Your team man, Marshall McFadden. Marshall McFadden, who played for the Rams, is like big-time pit crew guy. So I know some people are having trouble in the YouTube with a little bit of glitching. so bear with us if that's should be fixed now okay should be fixed alright well good shout out to our pit crew kind of just like look at them like changing attire like let's just get this stream okay moving on from zone and from the NASCAR portion kind of random but when Kyle Busch said peel back the hood it reminded me of the bloodstained man oh my god oh my god I'm so glad we didn't go do this bro it would have been going y'all wanted me to go alone and probably get jumped by a bunch of guys with hand eaters bro they were fucking these guys like my thing is I gotta tell people what it is before why mess with these people they end up in my algorithm a lot I got the funniest algorithm in the world Bo will tell you I got the funniest fucking algorithm in the world it's just random shit but these motherfuckers they wear all white like the leftovers you remember the show the leftovers and they just stand out there and they but they were all white but they got like red paint on their around in their crops dude and they basically protest that they want their foreskin back dude they're like 50 year old men they're like it's i've never been the same i'm like you don't understand your algorithm yeah why is it on your algorithm i don't know it's funny as fuck though maybe maybe it's like recruitment or something but it is objectively hilarious um they hold sticks up and shit and you think they're like the the bible protesters at every like vegas convention but they're really like they're the circumcision protesters and they they they were on they were in the streets in san francisco dude this week they were they were there dude they were at the golden gate bridge like right down the road from us there i want to go interview them like just roll up in their room these guys had no interest. Chris, look, did you hear the questions? Are you watching the alternate stream or the Bad Bunny stream for halftime? I think we might be glitching because we talked too bad about the alternate halftime show. Chris goes to me. He goes, look, it's going to be fun to go see those guys. Here's the questions I have for them. Fuck, marry, kill. No, no. See, you just start, bench, cut. Oh, okay, okay, okay. You got to go start, start, bench, cut. Foreskin, testicles, and I was trying to think of a third thing. Obviously, those guys are starting foreskin, dude. The first player off the bus for those guys is foreskin. They think it's like a life force. Anyways, I thought that was crazy. Shout out to those guys, the bloodstained men. Google them. Don't worry. It's nothing that you're going to. What's the odds that there's one bloodstained man out there that listens to the sports podcast? Zero. Zero? There's no chance. If you're worried about that, you're worried about sports? Yes, you're not worried about sports. So talking about our week in San Francisco, there are going to be things that are going to come up probably in the mentions that have a lot to do with our trip. We can talk about our trip a little bit and close the show. But I think it's time for the mentions. Am I right, Cowboy? You've got a BetMGM reading. I do. We'll jump right into the moment. Okay.

But if I went alone, I would have got beaten up by them. And my thing is, it's just like, if you didn't go alone, like, what if they're just like, like willing just to jump us all? Like, hey, like we would do the three of us. We could have definitely. We could have taken one. I'm not trying to fight dudes with like, with dick issues, bro. Dick issues? Like, that is right. Like, bro, like the fact that those guys are taking time out their day to basically, what? You're mad at your parents. You're mad at your parents. Yeah, go find the doctor. Like, yeah, you're pissed off at your parents. Do you remember when Terrence Howard said he remembers being born? Those guys are, like, probably claiming they remember being snipped, dude. Like, no! There's a little bit where we pretend like Nate is an actual doctor that can re-attack your force, dude. That's pretty good. Yeah, bro. Dr. Fax. All right, best flight. We start there. BetMGM moments. Best flight. I'm giving it to the Greenlight crew. Our flight back from San Fran to Charlottesville was immaculate. We had a flight attendant, which I've never had on a private, which was very nice. I've never had that on a private. Side note, I've only been on private flights with Chris my entire life, So I've never been on one with a flight attendant and with food. I had two bomb ass breakfast sandwiches. Yeah. A bacon, egg and cheese and a sausage, egg and cheese. Yeah. Like plates. Some fucking hash browns. We had 1130 PM. Right. I got it. We got we got hot towels to wash our face and hands. It was so amazing. It was so amazing. So I had to give the best flight to the Greenlight crew. Leave it to San Fran. We had a very good flight. I'd like to give the best flight to the football that Aiden threw across the street to Reed, dude. This was incredible. They had a glow-in-the-dark football. My kids watched Dude Perfect, and this was some legitimate Dude Perfect type stuff. It's a pretty wide street. We're like four stories up on the rooftop deck. It's nighttime. Glow-in-the-dark football. Cross the street. Probably 70-yard throw, I'm going to say. I mean, you had the height working with you, so, you know, I'm not saying you could throw it 70 yards, but it was a dot. And look at it. Pull it up. Pull it up. Pull it up. Look at this fucking throw, dude. This is a sick throw. And this was Aiden's. I miss our house. Aiden had four dots in a row. Look at that shit, bro. Bang. Bang, dude. Bang. Best flight, that football right there, dude. The video cuts off right at the end. The video cuts off right at the end. That ball there. And, yeah, fell in the street. It was pretty dope. That would have been the longest reception that the Pats had for about three hours of that football game, Aiden. Aiden's our resident Pats fan. He was getting hyped last night. But he's a fucking cool Pats fan, dude. And Aiden, can you, like, grab a mic for a second? As a Pats fan, how do you feel? Yeah, I mean, it doesn't feel great this morning. But honestly, getting this far in, like, a year away, like we've kind of all said all year, it's hard to feel that bad knowing what's kind of ahead with the squad, the coaching. Very realistic type of Pats fan. Right. I know I also was born into, like, the greatest dynasty of all time, so I can't really get picky. So how old were you when we won in, like, 16? I was, like, a sophomore in high school. 15, 15? Sophomore in high school. So you kind of, like, you were born into it, but you didn't get to enjoy it fully as an adult man. No, not the first. You're still due, bro. You're still due. You're going to get it, dude. Yeah, we're going to be a Pats fan. You know what's funny? They showed that Seattle points per game this year was like 17.9 or something. Yeah. I think we allowed under 17 and 16. And we weren't half as talented as that fucking group. I mean, talk about good coaching. We had a pretty good coach from Bill Belichick. But, yeah, I think. 15.6. Dude, we gave up 15.6 points a game. That's insane. I don't look back at our group like we were like crazy dominant, but we were fucking good, dude. Shout out to the 2016 Pats. Best flight, Aiden's football. Bo. Fuck it. I'm just going to go Sam Darnold here. I had all these funny ones, but, like, dude, fucking good for you, Darnold, man. You just won the Super Bowl. Everyone was kind of expecting, I feel like, holding their breath forward, expecting you to throw a pick, I don't know, fuck it up in some way. You didn't, man. You had a great season. Won the Super Bowl. quick flight back to Seattle where you can celebrate with your boys and enjoy it, man. I'm pumped for Sam Darnold. I'm happy for it. Best flight. Alright, Tanner? Your vote? I mean, it has to be the GLP crew. Thanks, Chris, for the flight. Fuck you guys. You're welcome, guys. You're welcome, guys. Do five more Adderings. There would be a good other flight for me. I'm going Sam Darnold, so everybody gets a point. You guys are ungrateful. That's crazy. That's insane. That's crazy. Next time. Very ungrateful. Yeah, next time. Next time it's just me and Tanner in the plane. Oh, me too. I'm the one who brought it up. Like, why did you and Tanner? I'm joking. I'm joking. Imagine if I was that type of boss where I was like, you guys didn't thank me. It's just me and Tanner dining one-on-one on a private plane. Tanner would fucking love that shit. You can't be fine, dude. Tanner would love that. You guys didn't thank me fast enough. Okay. Tie. Okay, so. Tie across the board. Everybody's got a point. Worst flight. What if we just tie all of them today? I was going to go Dave Portnoy. I think Dave Portnoy had a pretty bad flight because he probably lost a bunch of money, and he's like Mr. Pat's celebrity. But I'm going to give it to Ted Karras. shout out to Ted I just want to say Ted Karras is the funniest person of all time and I didn't know it when he was a rookie because he kind of kept to himself but now he's like a 10 year plus vet we had so much fucking fun shout out to Ted Karras the quote was sitting on the couch he goes 2013 13. He said, playing Wisconsin, my online coach says, if you don't cut somebody the first play, you should slit your own wrist. And he goes, first play, I run 15 yards down the field, which is an insane statement in and of itself. He goes, I run 15 yards down the field. I peel back. I cut the fuck out of Bo Allen. Took him out of the game. Bo's sitting right there. I'm like, I don't remember that at all, dude. Bro, he was in rare form, dude. Ted Karras might have had the worst fight. Those who know, know, because he had to be hurt, bro. He hit me up later, and he's like, hey, you've got to find that play. And, like, I don't think it was going to find a play from 2013. Like, I have no idea. No, no, no. He was funny. So I'll give it to Ted Karras. Nate. Everybody in the chat is like, we don't get it, but I'm just telling you. Worst fight. I'm going Clint Kubiak to Las Vegas. That's fine. Worst flight? Yep. Really? Yeah. Do you think it's going to be bad? Yep. He's going to have his big office, a lot of money. It's a suicide mission. Gino Smith? Yeah. Anything you want to tell me about Gino? Oh, okay. I forgot about that. He's going to have Fernando Mendoza. He is. He's going to have Mendoza. I'll update that LinkedIn. Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop. Oh, my God. Fernando. What did he do? Bro, we're waiting for you guys at the Madden party, and it's me and Aiden. And me and Aiden are inside, and lo and behold, Fernando Mendoza is walking in with his media crew. And when he walks by, he sees Matt Leiner just finishing getting his pictures taken. And Fernando, his face lights up when he sees Matt. And out of nowhere, he goes, Matt Liner! Woof, woof! With his two hair? Like, with his two hair. Woof, woof! Me and Aiden look at each other and just start dying laughing. And he was dead serious, though. It wasn't like he was forcing anything. I just feel like this whole Mendoza thing, whether you think it's, like, him being extra in the media, like, no. This is how this is. That's legitimately who he is. That's him. If he ends up being good. Oh, my God. What are the odds on a presidential run? Man, he probably could. He seems like he has that type of personality where he can handle that. Yeah, maybe. Hypotism. He definitely has it. Okay. He has it. Okay. First fight. Dude, I was scrolling through my feed this morning. I saw this guy lost his fantasy bat and he had to fly to Mumbai to watch the Super Bowl in a fucking hotel lobby. And I was like, God, that's fucking terrible. Because you know he's like, how do you make a trip out of that? You know, it's probably like a 14-hour life, three canids, one in some random fucking hotel lobby. That's tough. That's a rough deal, dude. I'd hate to have to travel again soon internationally. Shout out to the water boys. Water boys, we're going to Tanzania. I'm climbing Kelly again. All right? Nolan, your vote. I'm going with Bo. That's a tough life for that guy. I also want to give a worst flight shout-out to Reed and Tanner. It took them over half a day to get to San Fran. Yeah, that was a tough one. Started out in Charlottesville at noon and ended in San Francisco at 3 a.m. strolling the street trying to get into a AGB. San Francisco time, worth pointing out. Golly. Tough one. I'm going with Bo as well. Yep. Clean sweep. Clean sweep. That's a tough one. And hey, Bo, was it a straight, like, directly back? Bo will answer that. I will. I didn't catch this in the beginning. He didn't. It was a fantasy punishment? Yeah. Oh, my God. Imagine. Talk about being about it, dude. Those guys are about it. Who are these guys? I don't know. I want to know who these guys are. Unbelievable. Was Mumbai the mutually decided upon city? Or like, was it like you pick a city out of a hat? No, that's pretty good. Guys, this is pretty good. Let's see how far. Okay, if you're flying from New York. 18 hours, dude. Got to be 18 easy. 14 and a half. Without stop. Oh, you can go to New York to Mumbai. You're right. Non-stop. Not so bad. That's what drugs are for. That's almost as long as it took me and Cowboy to get to San Francisco. Yeah, just about. That's unbelievable. Sheesh. Bevel Conway, guys. I got a great one we're ready for. Yep. Lit us off. I'll start us off. Bevel Conway. That is Ryan Russillo's Instagram story. Okay. Damn. Damn. Damn. Oh, man. I loved it. Man. Beautiful sight. Beautiful sight. All right. Let's switch it up. Beville Conway, I'm going with the trees and the halftime performance of the Bad Bunny halftime performance. I just feel like the trees. I'm so mad at it. And then realizing that the trees were people, it was kind of fire. That was great. Yeah. I was trying to throw it in there quick. I was trying to throw it in there quick. All right. Let me give you one. Daytime Super Bowls. afternoon Super Bowls West Coast Outdoors Super Bowls Golden Gate Bridge shots why would you ever play another Super Bowl indoors like it just looks so much better can you imagine be honest even those of you who like dome stadiums can you imagine if that game was played inside how much that would hurt your eyes like the fact that it was somewhere beautiful kind of saved the day in my opinion Beville Conway Outdoors Super Bowls Multiple great cityscape shots and just rolling down the marina right at the Golden Gate Bridge. Our Airbnb was off to the left. That's our turf. We knew that. We knew that the whole time. That's where we were scoping out some whales. We did see some whales, which could be a Bevel Conway. My vote goes to the trees in the halftime performance. Okay. That was beautiful. I'll start with the anti-Bevel Conway. Hold on. I'm going to finish. I'm going to go on with the daytime Super Bowls.

I don't know what the fuck everybody else is talking about. I could do a Tenderloin district, bro. It's like, you got to do what you got to do, bro. You got to do what you got to do. But, like, I was like, man, it's a little early in the morning to be so vigorously in an alcove. You couldn't. Yeah. I hope that guy doesn't see this. I don't think so either. He's Greenlight's biggest San Francisco fan. Yeah. uh bo uh anti-bevelable sorry i don't know what the fuck is going on with my internet i don't have that eero mesh system i guess i'm a little behind anyway uh my anti-bevel dude this is hilarious every time i see something about jordan hudson it's just something like provocative and her so she came out in the the robber craft massage spa shirt i thought that was like on one hand it's pretty funny but it's like sad look you know like i love it but i also hate it that's my anti-bevel it's like it's just so so you're talking about jordan hudson yeah yeah it's incredible no that's incredible is what that is you know yeah but it's i mean anti-bevel for that it is incredible dude i fucking love it but it's ridiculous it's ridiculous it's ridiculous but it's also like this is getting stranger than fiction, man. Yeah. Give us something to talk about. I'm going to fix my fucking internet. Go ahead and do that. We're going to continue with the anti-bevel comment. You got one, Nate? Since I really don't, I'm going to say anti-bevel. Bo Allen's internet right now. Yeah, got to get Euro. Got to get Euro. Maybe he needs to make it out to California way. That's where they do have all the internet, bro. He needs to plug it back in. That's one of the best South Park episodes, dude. Tanner, your vote. Oh, anti-bevel, the tenderloin dish with meat slap, as Cowboy has written down in the doc? Yep. It was unreal, dude. I second the meat slap. Make it three. All right. Yeah, because I kind of set you guys up, because if you said something else, then you kind of like that. Exactly. Right, yeah. So you kind of. Wise. Read the game. Yeah. I was just being honest. The other one I had written down here was the Turning Point USA Super Bowl show. I just didn't want to pile on too much. Just in case God really liked it. You know what I'm saying? Like, there is the offhand chance that he's just as bad as these people say. You didn't like Kid Rock. Yeah, dude. Yeah, nothing like... Early gates. Yeah. Best seat. Let's see. What do we have here? Played for free for a year. Generally, pretty agreeable guy. Oh. Had some things to say about Kid Rock's performance of Ball with the Ball. They already got Bo. They shut Bo's internet down quick. Talking too much shit. Oh, yeah. For real. They're starting to get. They're coming after us. Okay. What's the next thing? Best seat. Oh, best seat. Kenny Walker's dad, dude. Sorry, bro. Golly. Really? Took mine. Well, it doesn't matter. There's no winners here. Who won this thing three weeks ago? Nobody fucking knows. Let's talk about it. Kenny Walker's dad never been to a football game before. He doesn't like crowds. I fucking feel you, dog. Me too. And he goes to a football game, and his son is the MVP. The one you go to, your son gets the MVP. Talk about slugging percentage for a dad. And then Kenny Walker said that he didn't even know that he was coming. He said his agent last minute convinced his dad to actually come. So he was just in the city, but he didn't come to the game. No, no, no. He knew his dad was in the city. It was in the city, yeah. But, like, he usually comes, like, he said supposedly his dad, like, flies to all the games. But, like, he'll watch it somewhere else, like, by himself or whatever. But it's just cool that supposedly he said also not only did they get him to come to the game, but supposedly he was mic'd up and stuff. So I'm excited to see that content whenever it comes out. Him being at his first game and him having him mic'd up and how that was for him is probably incredible. but shout out to him and his family. You think you felt like Mr. Krabs? This is great, but holy shit. Holy shit, baby. I'm with you, dude. Walking into a stadium, the older I get, it's hard. You start feeling like, what the fuck's going on? Okay. Worst seat since Kenny Walker was your win. It was Bo's back. Bo, what's your best seat? best seat god damn he's struggling is this shit working you're having a worst day dude your internet's giving up 14 pressures my best seat I don't know what you guys pick but Kenny Walker's dad going to the best seat are you fucking kidding me is this the bit no that has to be the best seat yeah Did you guys pick that already? Yeah, both of us. Worst seat. We're all winners. It was Sam Darnold's agent. Because Sam Darnold hit every freaking incentive. Did he really? Four mil in extra incentives. Good for him. Poor guy doesn't have enough. Doesn't have enough. So, anti-bubble con. We already did that. Worst seat. every other AFC team, every other AFC team, not to say the Pats didn't deserve to be there. They did. They won the games. That's how this works. Trevor would have put up a fight. Man, he was gone a month ago. No, dude. We're not talking Jags. Look at the way he snuck this deep. One week. We were gone one week before. Dude, the Pats were your Super Bowl team. I know. You made the Pats your Super Bowl team. That's the lead. Josh Allen like Josh Allen like curb stomp Trevor Lawrence dude he did he outplayed him did he not? we're both home it's okay I don't want to get you mad you haven't been mad since we threw away 1 o'clock catering at 9 o'clock it did so we threw away threw away my ball he's like he's Mr. Mad Dr. Mad You guys are wasteful. You guys are wasteful with food. No, we're just trying to protect you so you don't get, like, fucking some sort of food-borne ailments. You're welcome. We had mac and cheese out from noon to 8 p.m. Nate wasn't even there for lunch. Flies in, gets to the fucking studio. Me, Bo, Ralph, we're all just plastered sitting on the couch, not doing anything. And Nate comes in all hot and bothered, and he's like, why the fuck did you throw the food away? You guys wasted the food. It was 8 o'clock. People in the chat, would you eat mac and cheese that's been sitting out in a common area for eight hours? Yes or no? Let us know. Put that as the fucking... In the poll, yeah. Trevor Lawrence? We're talking about Trevor Lawrence right now? I didn't even bring Josh out up. I said all the other AFC teams. Because honestly, every AFC team could have probably made a better case for playing in that football game. Yes. That's all I'm saying. Yeah, including the Jags. They'd be down the list a little bit for me. Although I did meet Liam Cohen this weekend. Yeah, you did. He was awesome. I get why people love Liam Cohen. Sitting there talking to Eric Armstead. Shout out, Walter Payton Man of the Year. And by the way, Bobby Wagner, congrats, man. But, yeah, they were just shooting the shit. And you could tell, like, the way the guys were hanging around Liam, that his players really like him. I even was like, let's get a picture. My co-host loves you. put the picture in the group text Nate didn't say a fucking word just ignored the picture I made a fool of myself for nothing Coach, can I get a picture with you? Who is that? This is a 50-50 poll, bro What? The room tent mac and cheese See? You guys are wasteful No, it's he Okay, if 50-50 If 50-50 means somebody's right there's a lot of things that are 50-50 right now what are you going to do all of a sudden you should listen to everybody who's on the wrong side of 50-50 dude no I just think you guys are wasteful some of the stuff I say you always think it's going to be blown out of the water you thought this was probably going to be 90-10 no I didn't think that that's you you're worried about the chat I'm just doing it for you you just don't like leftovers it's ok I love leftovers he tried to turn it into a white guy thing when he walked in he goes you white people waste everything You guys don't like leftovers. Just throw it out. You guys? Ralph, who's not white, was like, I ain't touching that, dude. So it's definitely to a person, bro. And Bo was sitting there with bubble guts. He had just eaten the foodie. That's actually my worst seat problem, laying down on the fucking couch, hurting. We're all chilling. A million people over at the house, a bunch of interviews, unlined a little bit. Dude, I eat chicken cutlet for fucking breakfast. My wife makes it. I eat chicken cutler for breakfast for three days, dude. I don't need anything, dude. I eat pizza cold. I eat chicken. I don't even heat up food out of the fridge. I don't like food-bored illness. How about that, dude? So we got worst seat every other AFC team, especially the Jags. Wanted to throw that in there. What do we got next? Bo, what were you going to say? My worst seat is fucking bubble guts on the couch, a little shroomed out, and Nick walks in and immediately starts screaming, I'll fuck you. I was like, oh, my. We were like Mr. Krabs, but we were like, man, we're not ready for this energy right now. Yo, you guys being our shrooms on that couch saved like a real, real, saved you guys from me, like really. Oh, thank God. Because once I realized when I did that thing and I looked, and like I was really mad and I got no reaction, like from Ralph or anyone, and I was just like, all right, I see what you're doing. Yeah, we kind of just looked at you. And I literally was like, let me get the fuck away from these guys. Have you ever wanted to fuse the situation? Nate was digging in the garbage for some mac and cheese after that. Oh, boom, Nate. I was a rat back there. I think Nate was just eating the mac and cheese. Nate, what was your worst seat? Worst seat. He also was acting like we were in a food desert. I ordered some umami that was delicious. He got here in like 17 minutes, dude. I did the same thing, and guess what? one bite and put it near my stuff in my book bag to save to come back in and eat and someone punted it or spiked it into the garbage. That's crazy. It's nuts. It's crazy. I had an Acai Bowl in 22. I think the same person did an Acai Bowl the quick clean up thing. I don't know. The quick clean up. Alright. But, we're C. 49ers players and fans watching the Seahawks win the Super Bowl. Yeah, Shanahan was on TV and he actually picked him and was like, it pains me to say it, but they're going to win. And Fred Warner, they were like, do you hate him? He was like, do I hate him? Yeah, I think I hate him. He's like, anybody hates their rival. But, you know, honestly, I can remember when the Seahawks won the fucking Super Bowl and we were in the NFC West. It's painful to watch, dude. That shit's depressing, dude. I didn't want to go out that night. Nobody was thinking about the Rams I didn want to go out Shanahan did good on TV by the way I kind of like seeing him on TV And you can tell he tried to clean up a little bit because he aware of the fact that he aging presidentially Nothing to you. Who are you doing it to? My bad. No one. He's just mad at the air, dude. He is legitimately. Let me see. Somebody text you? Let me see. That's funny, dude. Bo, what was your worst seat? Bubble Guts. I gave mine. You got Bubble Guts? All right, Nolan, what's your vote? Honestly, my worst seat is on the internet right now. Yeah, worst seat, internet. And then we've got a couple more here. What do we got? Nate won with Niners, players, and fans. That was my vote. Tanner, your vote for fun? Bubble Guts. This is better for you so you don't get mad. Mr. Mad Hollow Man I got a Hollow Man Dr. Fax Hollow Man Shit There's a few dude I got one Yeah go ahead Drewski I'm actually Legitimately annoyed At Drewski For his Presentation Yeah What did he say Bo Presentation You know what Fax I'm not even Going to go there Brother but i was really annoyed dude that's a big honor and jsn is a fucking beast and drewski went up there and just completely fucked it up and it really pissed me off he's a comedian i love jsn i know honors is a pretty buttoned up thing and like i just thought it was embarrassing for everyone involved i didn't like it um yeah dude he is a comedian but You're not in a comedy show. You're in a room full of guys that, like, we hit people for a living. And you're, I don't know. I'm with Bo on this one. I thought it was kind of like. And I think a lot of the guys in the crowd were like, all right, dude, like a little much. But you know what? Not everything is going to be funny in the comedian. You fuck up sometimes. They won't be having him back, I'm sure. Probably. But I love the work at the NASCAR races you do. The white face stuff is fucking top. That is funny. Hollow Man. No, it offends me. It offends me. Hollow Man. Mine's going to Will Campbell. Yeah, probably. I just feel like. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, just like you said, the fact that you didn't do media, I feel like that makes you even more like the Hollow Man. because just not being able to, yeah, just explain yourself or just get up there and be like, hey, guys, I picked the bad time to have a bad game. Like, I had a bad game. Like, it happens. Guys have bad games. Was it the opportune time to have a bad game? Definitely not. I also think the play callers hung that O-line out to dry a little bit. Dude, I really think they were too ambitious. So I'll say this. Hollow Man, you guys hit a couple good ones. I'm kind of scrambling here. but the Vikings in general. You know, obviously you brought up Kwasi being fired. And that's one thing. But, like, the Vikings in general just as a group making the decision to move on from a guy that just won the Super Bowl. Like, I don't know if that's ever happened. Has that ever happened? The Super Bowl championship winning quarterback was passed over the year before. And somebody said, hey, no thanks. I mean, maybe Nick Foles was somewhere before he was in Philly the year before. But, you know, that was an impasse for them. And it's a lot easier to explain away. It's for the future when Sam Darnold doesn't win a Super Bowl the next year. Hello, men. Vikings. Tanner, your vote. And it is tied fours across the board, by the way. Everybody knows. I'm going Will Campbell. Nice. Will Campbell. Sorry, shout out to Chris Allen. He says, Drew, she's not a comic. I was trying to be nice. I'm glad you're on my side. You're anti. No, Chris Allen's hating? Yeah, he's hating. No, he's not. He's hating? No, he's not. He's not. It's true. He's not a comic. He doesn't stand up there and do stand-up comedy. That's comic on comic hate, yo. That's comedian. Yeah, he's not a comic, bro. No, I'm joking. Guys. I'm trying to think of what that would be like. But, yeah, he's not a comic. Okay, what's the next one? Nolan's vote. My other is Drewski. Drewski. I'm going with the Vikings. We are staying at five. Everybody's got five. I'm going to ask you something, Chris. Point for everybody. Because since you're an ex-Walter Payton Man of the Year Award recipient, do you guys have, like, secret parties? No. Not unless they're not telling me. Like, I just wondered that. Like, all the women. Oh, the Walter Payton Man of the Year. They don't party. Yes, they do. Some of them might. They don't pee. No, some of them might. Well, do they have tea parties? No, we don't have any tea parties. But the guys were getting together this weekend. It was during one of our things. Oh, okay. So I couldn't catch up. But I saw a few dudes. And it is cool when you see a dude that has won before. But, you know, what's next? Well, real fast, to answer your question, Trent Dilfer is one of those guys. He got passed up the year before. And I think it was Brad Johnson. No, I think he was on the Bucs. But Matthew Stafford, because he got traded. This Seahawks team does remind me of that Bucs team. Yeah. There were a couple comparisons. It reminds me of the Bucs team. Just dominant run. Like, the run to the Super Bowl was just like, man. And it's a great roster that, you know, in 25 years, if you look back and you ask who won that Super Bowl, who was the quarterback, you know, some people might. Might not remember that it was Sam, but I thought that Bucs team was awesome. And the Seahawks have 101 points scored, 46 allowed. They're the first team to score 100-plus points and allow fewer than 50 in an NFL postseason since those 2002 Bucs. There you go, but I'm not comparing Trent to Sam. I think Sam played like a bona fide guy. And I'm not taking it. Not Trent. But you know what? The Brad Johnson thing, dude, I thought Brad Johnson was really good. I thought Brad Johnson was really good. I thought Brad Johnson, if you compare the Trent Dilfer to Brad Johnson, I thought Brad Johnson had, like, some good years there, man. Yeah. And you heard Warren Sapp talking about it. He was like, that's my quarterback, Cam Newton. Don't call him a fucking game manager. He put up some numbers. He could throw the rock. Yeah. And the Bucs had a defensive touchdown in that. What happened now on your phone? Nothing, no. You're just you. STL Memorial tied at five. Your Warren Sapp. That shit was funny, though, when Warren Stapp got mad and pressed Cam. What? You think, like, that's what – Ernest Jones is going to be doing that for, like, 25 years. The puka? No, yeah. He's going to press puka when he's using it. That's T.O. Memorial. I'm going to give it to Michael Dixon, dude. I'm going to give it to Michael Dixon. I thought the punts last night for this group were awesome. Three punts down inside the 10 in a game that's all about field position. This was a close game for a while. And it sure made it easier knowing that New England would have to produce at least a couple explosives to get into field goal range from that point. Nate? STL Memorial celebrities in the halftime show last night. We had talked about it earlier. You haven't seen Ricky Martin in a long time. You got Jessica Alba in there. I just feel like halftime show was amazing, like we talked about. But give my STL memorial to those celebrities. Got a little shine for being Puerto Rican. I love it. Bo? I was going to say Seahawks special teams, too. It's a good call. I'm going to switch it up, though. I'm going to go with Riley Mills. Really nice ball rush. He hadn't played a ton and had a really nice sack. You know, it's a good play. It was a dominant sack, dude. It was fucking nice. Legit, you get the one-on-one, you win it. And honestly, they hadn't been... I was doing that at UI, too. No, I know. Those are a shit stuff. Not a lot of space. Those are really nice reps. He had a great quote after the game. He said, I just ran through his face, then got to the quarterback. I told myself last night, no more thinking, just go. Sorry, I don't want to swear, but just fucking go. You can swear, buddy. You just won a Super Bowl. You need your first career stack in the Super Bowl. It's incredible. Okay Game ball Hold on we're going to vote Tanner your vote for his STL Memorial Michael Dixon I'm going with Dixon as well Alright Another guy I want to shout out I don't know if we gave him enough love Earlier talking about the game Zach Corr He's done a great job This game was about Keeping the thing within one possession As long as possible They forced multiple field goals in plus territory Very well-designed blitz plan, I thought. Did a good job. Yeah, he's been a beast, man. I don't know what his future is going to be. I mean, like, this is a tough decision for New England. Yeah, it really is. You know, because, like, in a lot of cases, you think, like, they're going to do the right thing by, you know, Terrell Austin. Terrell Williams. Or Williams. Terrell Williams. Freaking, I don't think you have to do that in this situation. When the guy's been this good, like, you feel like you ride the hot hand. Right. And I almost feel like Williams is older. I think he'll understand. It's a hard, tough pill to swallow. You can probably keep him on the staff in some capacity as, like, a passing coordinator. Yeah, no question. All right, so we've got Game Ball. I'm giving it to Schneider, man. The fucking roster. I didn't want to give it to, like, the Super Bowl MVP. So Schneider built an incredible team. I think it's top to bottom the best roster in the league this year and it doesn't always work out that way that the best roster goes and wins the whole thing how about the delta between where we thought certain rosters were before the season and where it turned to be this group was better than people thought John Schneider also like mid-season adjustments picking up Rashid Shahid everything like that I had him too for my game ball I suspect that somebody might pick it so I'm going to pivot my game ball I'm going to give it to the Greenlight crew, y'all. Hey, thanks, bro. Appreciate you. We had a great week, man. We were chopping it up. We had some great laughs and good memories, but we also fucking did some good work. So it was a good week. Game ball to everybody. We all get the fucking game ball. I got a game ball. He kind of stepped on mine a little bit. Man, you guys were just all stepping on each other's game balls. He was just stepping all over it. But the game ball, since it's the last live show, giving it to our coach and our commander, C-Long, for a great year. And just like Bo was saying, just like it is in football, it takes a lot for a coach to put a good team together that works together. It's a good roster. That we go through things. And I just feel like you coached us up well this year. We had a nice, long season. I feel like you're a game manager, dude. You're a great, I feel like you're a fuck out of here, a game manager. I do. You know? Absolutely. You're the podcast, you're John Schneider. You're the throws, bro. All the things you said about John Schneider is what you did in here with the green light this year. No, no. I'll vote. Well, I want to thank the fans. In the chat. I'll vote first. Locals. I'm going with Nate. Nate had a great pick. Great pick. You guys are all crazy. I'm going to vote for the GLP crew. Yeah. I'm going John Schneider. All right. Hey, Beville Conway might be these hats. I was skeptical about this hat. That's incredible. Whoever designed these. Whoever designed these really nice little touch with the dancing bears on the back. I like the San Fran, you know, the pride shown in the hat. That's my favorite. Right on. Right on. you win the you win the season's final BetMGM moment didn't even feel like it it just felt like we won we felt like we won a big part of our trip was the fact that we thought you were bullshitting about the whales and then we all got to see the whales we really got I told you there were whales it was so funny because Jules was like there's no whales yeah a lot of people from this show that we asked they were like they were like there's no way you guys seen whales. And Aiden Tanner were telling two San Francisco guys that those guys said, no way there are whales. And my buddy out there who lives there, he's like, yo, if there's a whale in the bay, it is on the news and everybody is on it. But he's dialed. We were seeing blowholes and whale tails. Multiple whales. Maybe they're locals. They might be trying to pull up. Shout out to the whales. And also one more shout out for BetMGM here. Enjoy any sport that I do that one. No, I'm on Silver Too much Silver Oak this week, and I'm moving a little slow. I actually love Silver Oak wine, so I'm super excited that we got a little sponsorship with these guys because I don't drink a lot of vino, but when I do, I have no bullshit at Silver Oak.

She was like under the covers, Sabrina Carpenter with the Pringles man. When we think of the Pepsi commercial with the polar bears actually liking Pepsi. I didn't see that one. I didn't see that one. The fact that the minions are still making movies is amazing. Dude, my kids were hyped about that one. I was kind of hyped. I was like, they're making another one? That's incredible. I will say the Kendall Jenner ad was well done. that's all who was in that one thing yeah that's like old though oh really yeah it wasn't a new one dude the budweiser the budweiser one with the eagle on the i mean the eagle and the horse i think everybody probably liked that one although it's hard to crunch um free bird down to like a 30 second spot you know what i mean it's one of my biggest pet peeves is like when commercials like you know they manipulate an iconic song you kind of tell yeah um but that was a great one And then I liked the Jurassic Park commercial for an experience. I thought that was dope. There were a few callbacks. Yeah, the Duncan. The Goodwill, what was it, Goodwill Duncan. Yeah, Goodwill Duncan. What was the Tyson commercial about? Mike Tyson. Oh, veggies. It was like veggies because remember he was like, oh, I got to do it. Oh, yeah, no process food. Yeah, no process. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Shout out to Tyson, Mike Tyson gummies. Some bites. I did like seeing Ben Stiller in the, I forget what that was. It was Instacart. That one was awesome. That was perfect. That was good. I think that one's going to, that one's shine. That one's a perfect role for Ben Stiller. No question. His look on his face where he gets mad. That was a good one, dude. I like that one. And I'll leave you with this. Oh, the tight end commercial was fucking incredible. Now, that's been running a while. Yeah. But that is a really high-quality commercial. That's so good. Really, that's like admin right there, dude. Uh-huh. That's admin. The one I want to leave you with, this one, Rocket Redfin Mortgage, dude. Because that was a mortgage company. Yeah. Now, I don't need a mortgage. And, like, this had not a lot to do with, well, I guess you're in a neighborhood, so, like, technically. But being a good neighbor, how hard is that, man? Can we just try to be good neighbors to each other? We try to treat each other. I thought the mortgage company, ironically, nailed it, dude. I was like, what is this commercial for? Because when things are bad, when somebody's puppy runs out of the house and gets loose and is lost for a day, somebody finds it and returns it. When there's a tree in your yard, there's neighbors out there with the chainsaw. When you need help, the point is, when shit hits the fan, we help each other, man. So I would ask everybody going into this offseason to try to be good neighbors to each other. Man, let's try to treat each other well. Why don't you be my neighbor? Try not to lose your puppy. Try not to lose your puppy. And one more. This wasn't a Super Bowl commercial, but one that we could easily make a commercial for because of how much it was featured at the Greenlight Super Bowl headquarters. Yeti. We had Yeti. We had cold beer with the Yeti. We had cold drinks because of Yeti. Hell yeah. Big shout-out Yeti. Yep. Shout-out Yeti. It's almost river season. I can't wait to use my fucking name. new cast iron, took a fat, juicy steak. I saw that was in the luggage on the way back. I was like, who packed a Yeti cast iron skillet? Need that. Need that. And then can I say something really quickly? Of course. I want to apologize to my guy, Dominique Foxworth, for getting you mixed up with Desmond Howard. I'm embarrassed. It's a funny joke now. It's a public apology. Yeah, because, I mean, I seen them, and I was high off of edibles, and I just wanted to redo. And touche to you and Chris for playing up the bit and keeping it going. On the flight out to San Francisco, what happened was Nate took some edibles and thought in the group chat and on a side channel that Dominique Foxworth was Desmond Howard. And so he was excited to meet him, and when Dom got off the plane, I'm waiting outside the plane and I said, hey, Dom, we should play this up. And he goes, I agree wholeheartedly. And so Dom beeline for us at the baggage claim and was like, comes up to me and I'm like, yo, Des. And he's like, what up, dude? And, you know, like. Chris taps me. I tap him and I do the Heisman thing. I go, look, see. In my high end, I go, I know. I know. He goes, I know. And Desmond, Dominique, is like, I'm so tired of people doing that to me. Anyways, walks out. Nate's like, man, that's so fucking cool, man. Like, you know him like that? I'm like, yeah. And then I'm standing there quiet for a second. I'm like, I can't let this go on. So I was like, Nate, that's Dominique Foxworth. And Nate goes, I knew it. I'm like, had it narrowed down. The two people that look completely different. I know that has to be my take. And it is. and Dom texts me as soon as he walks out and Nate goes brothers can't be doing that to each other but he was like let's keep doing this and I go I hate to break it to you man as a white man I had to end that right where it started I couldn't be a party to that so it was great though shout out to Dom Dom is the man he was a man we laughed about it at Kelsey's event Coolest person you guys met this weekend. Remember, in honor of Big X the Plug in you meeting that one time. The Big X the Plug Super Bowl Award goes to Tanner. Who's your pick? He shook some mid-white girl's hand. Yeah, I shook Libby Dunn's hand. Shut up. What did you say? You can't say that. That's like our Janet Jackson, dude. My opinion. That's like young white males. She was very nice. I told her I was a big fan of Paul. She said she was a fan, too. And I was like, I hope you are. I hope you are. I'm a fan of your boyfriend. He's a really good pitcher. He is, but he could throw the fuck out of a baseball, dude. Yeah, he could throw the fuck out of a baseball. I just had to let her know that I saw him. No question. So, that's mine. Bo? Dude, I love the workaholics, guys, man. Yes. They're so fucking... Chris and I were chopping it up with them until, like, 3 or 4 a.m. and like prepping for our fits interview and they're just the fucking funniest guys ever like turn to you like out of nowhere it's like four in the morning our brains are on like so you know when your brain's powering down and you don't know it yet and blake we had like the late night sleepover laughs yeah you've been up too late you're just giggling with your boys so the background is the last year in new orleans those guys came over to the house and we had that sweet airbnb Airbnb in the back with like a big wall behind the pool and they had like beautiful gas lamps and shit. Like old like French gas lamps. And Blake's like, I forget what he was like, what he was trying to do, but he was trying to show us how good his arm was. And he threw a football right into one of the gas lamps. Broke our fucking gas lamps. Like I bet you I could hit that lamp over there where I'm like, alright. And he just fucking thrilled it. So we're sitting there and everybody's just got mush brain and Blake turns to Bo and goes, alright, I got something for you. He goes, I'll give you $1,000 right now. If you can write the whole alphabet in cursive uppercase. It's fucking four in the morning, dude. I'm sitting there crying. I'm like, I don't think I'd be able to do that. Shout out to those guys. Mine goes to Ted Karras. Ted Karras. Incredible. Friday night, we get back to our Airbnb. I'm hanging outside with Nolan. And then Ted Karras rolls in. And he's like, I've been banging on the door for 30 minutes. And we were like, Ted, we saw you at the bar five minutes ago. You were not. And he's like, I've been banging on the door for 22 minutes. He is a comedian, bro. I didn't realize that about him when he was a rookie. My favorite person we met this was our lovely bartender, Mel, who has the strangest talent that I've never thought would even be entertaining or even possible. But she was ambidextrous in the sense that she can write in perfect cursive with both hands backwards anything you wanted. But in a way that when she wrote it backwards and held the paper up, when you looked at it, it was the right way. It was like at night for like party tricks. It was crazy. It was something that you. It was mind boggling. Yeah. And it's something that even. It was like a polygraph with their two hands where both, you know, both things make the exact same. The exact same thing. It's crazy. And it's something that even if you weren't like thinking about it or like if you go and be like, this is an impressive, you see her do it and you're like, oh, this is actually impressive. No, it's crazy. I was like, you shouldn't be doing this. You should be in a circus. I don't know if it's any better to be, you know. Or she should be running it up on TikTok somehow. No question. Making videos like that all day. No question. By the way, Mello with the dots, right? Livvy Doon ain't got shit on Janet Jackson. Dude, I didn't say my Janet Jackson, but a lot of these young whites, that's like their Janet Jackson, whether you like it or not. I didn't say I agree. But, you know, the way Nate called her, man, like, Jesus Christ, man. Come on, that's Paul Skeens'. She's also really nice. You know, she's also nice. I met her in Baton Rouge. She was really nice. Really nice. At Baton Rouge. anyways look at me he's mad oh this is the doctor doctor mad shout out to liby dunya yeah is it dune or dunn see so you don't even know her name no that's fine she's not my janet jackson how could she be on a pedestal you don't know her right name i'm just hey there's some some of these young milk boys aged kids a.k.a. I want to know what the player knows. What did he say? Probably Liam Cohen. What did he say? He wants to know. Oh, mine? We interviewed Bo Jackson. There were multiple times during that interview where I was like, wait, what's going on? It was crazy. That was probably my favorite interview we've ever done. It was awesome. I'm so excited for the locals to hear it. You guys are going to love it, I think. I was nervous about it. Barry Sanders is coming to the house just to hang out a little bit. So cool. Just a repeat customer, dude. My list goes as follows. You guys don't know about this one. Chris Mullen. Oh, really? No way. Met him at the BetMGM cocktail party. I was scoping it. I was like, man, Chris Mullen's here? Oh, my God, dude. Like, I was just fucking crazy. But I didn't want to bother him or anything. I used to do work with him at NBA Jam. Run TMZ, dude. Bro, but, like, legit. Legit, he's walking out. Tim Hardway. Oh. He's walking. No, you're fine. He's walking out. And he comes up to the guy who's talking to me. He shakes his hand like I guess they had met before or something. And then he looks at me, and he's just looking at me. And I'm like, how you doing? I'm Chris. And he's like, hey, man, how you doing? Like, he's like, I met your dad before. where, like, he goes, where's his family from? And I'm like, right under the Bunker Hill Monument in Boston. Like, he's from Charlestown. He goes, no, in Ireland. And I was like, oh, I'm fucking stupid because he's Irish. And I go, it's basically Ireland under that motherfucker, huh? And I was like, please let this be funny. And he laughed. And I was like, man, this is the best shit ever. And he sat there and talked for, like, 15 minutes, man. What a nice dude. I also met Gary Payton at the thing. GP. Huge hands, bro, obviously. on everybody's fucking basketball. He's got hands like this big, dude. And then Bradley Chubb. Saw him. Speaking of Broncos, DJ Jones. He was awesome. He was at our swearing-off event. Yeah, I got Ted Karras on the list. We saw so many cool people, man. That's what Super Bowl week's about. You just run into some of your homeboys and you meet some new people. I'm going to guess on Aiden's favorite. Oh, I forgot, too. We met Tiffany Haddish. Tiffany Haddish. We met Tiffany Haddish. in the lobby of the Madden party. She gave Bo four hugs. Yeah, he's huggable. But like in three seconds, though. He's huggable. He's a huggable guy. It's tight. Yeah. It was tight. All right. I want to guess on Aiden's. I'm going to say it was Julian Edelman. When he walked into the house, Aiden be-lined right to him and said, Hey, I'm Aiden. Did he really? Did he really? He shook his hand and turned on a dime and went right upstairs. You had never met Jules before, Aiden. That was the first time. He's such a great guy. Great. I love Jules, man. We've got to get him on more. Last thing. One time I FaceTimed Jules. It's pretty funny. We FaceTime sometimes randomly, and he FaceTimed me, and he's like, what are you doing? I'm like, nothing. He's like, I'm like, what are you doing? He turns the phone to his TV. He's got a show on the TV. And he goes, just checking out your show. I'm like, what do you think about it? He goes, you and I think a lot alike. I was like holding my breath. I was like, what is he going to hate this shit? Jules is the man, dude. We got to get him on more. And the other guys, we got to get Marshall Newhouse on this show, bro. I was loving talking to Marshall Newhouse. Shout out to TCU legend, right? You got to read. You got to read. Yeah. Read Moses. Yeah, read Moses, yeah. So last thing, the Super Bowl LXI 61 logo came out. As you guys know, there's the color idea that the two colors have a logo. Jags. Or Philly, Denver. Miami. I'm seeing the Miami Dolphins. Is that teal? Teal. It can't be Miami, dude. But I would be a lot happier if it was Miami. Carolina. Because we've moved on. Chicago. That means Malik Willis is playing. Malik Willis. playing the big game for... Look, I mean, it's a cool logo. This is actually a good logo. Relative to some of the logos we've been seeing over the past 15, 20 years, it's a pretty good logo. You guys excited for LA? I don't want to think about that yet. Okay. No question. I'm excited. I do want to stay somewhere cool. I want to stay far away. Can we arrange that? Far away? Yeah, like, I don't want to stay in the middle. Yeah, that'd be good. I don't want to stay in the middle. Like, I want to, like, do you want to stay in Malibu? Like, I would think in Malibu. Would we stay in Malibu? I think you would have to stay, like, right downtown, right? We should get a studio downtown to interview people downtown. But I want to stay so far away that we just, like, sit out in our backyards at night. We don't go anywhere. Like we didn't ever go. Like Arizona, bro. We should be a little San Monty. But sometimes we went. Yeah, we could see your old neighborhood. San Monaco, dude. Right on the beach. San Monaco would be great, yeah. Madness. book the airbnb right now guys okay um great season great season great work thank you locals for being here thank you locals not the locals appreciate the love we are out of words uh so we do have a we've got a a great number of guest interviews that we've put together so they're going to be rolling out uh the next couple weeks you'll uh hear from us uh when those are dropping Bo Jackson, Michael Bennett, Joe Thomas, Kylie Kelsey. That Michael Bennett interview is great. That was so good. That was my favorite one we did all week. He was so fun. He was so fun, dude.

Oh, fuck, I got a great story I got to tell you guys in a second. I love it. Just everyone remember it. Chris said we have no more words and then five people said. Yeah, so I'm walking by him and I go, that boy's about to get paid or something like that. and no one else turned around. I looked behind me and he looked over his shoulder. He knows exactly who I was talking about and smiled at me. And then we saw him at the New Heights party and talked to him while he was cool as fuck. Bo Love. He went up to you and goes, he goes, I made him promise to tell you, like, bitch, I am about to get paid. Did he say that? Yeah, no, he didn't say bitch. He also didn't say that at all. He was just like, nice to meet you. And I was like. And Michael Pittman, he is such a cool dude. Pittman's great. This is how I know I'm going to love this fucking dude. He bummed a zone off of me. He's like, can I get one of those? Kind of fumbled the exchange a little bit, and he went to pick it out of the tin and dropped it on the floor. Didn't even fucking miss a beat. Grabbed it, scooped it right up, and threw it in. I was like, who threw in a floor zone? Pitt. Pitt did? Michael Pitt did. That's my kind of wide receiver, dude. That's why he's seen contact out there. He can go over the middle. Exactly. You know he's probably a great blocker, too, just because of that. You can drop a pillow on the ground and pick it up. And then we met Colson Loveland there, too. He was cool. So I think we're good on words, guys. I think it's time to go home now. I'm going to go home to my family. Shout out to the Airbnb rat, too. Man, there was a big rat in the back of the Airbnb. Supposedly it, like, jumped down out of a tree. It was a tree rat. It was a tree rat. And that was the night I was taking out all the leftovers. Yes. with the lady, with the cleaning lady. Those rats are eating good back there. They're eating good in San Fran. All right. We got to go. Y'all take care. Later, boys. We ended this week.
