This is the downbeat on ninety seven to one, The freak Mike Us Morning
News coming up in thirty minutes. Dinghu's out this week. He's got a
whole wallet full of vacation days and he's spending him one day at a time.
And good on him. We missed the dinger, but we love him
all right. P In fact, send your rest in piece messages too at
bad Karate movie on Twitter, you know, in other places. Just tell
him to peace. No, actually, let's just let's not do any bits
on that. Tell him you love him, You love him, and it's
better when he's here and it is. Tell tell him, don't tell him
how unlistenable it is without him, though. We can't have him get in
a big head no or any other person seeing it and thinking that that's a
real thing. Just tell him you love him, Tell him you love him.
Holt tell him you love him. I haven't seen it much, but
it is weird throughout the years to see the word unlistenable, which is only
yeah? Is that only around here? Is that only like a radio?
Maybe termble like to jump all the way to unlistenable? Thinks if you try,
it's so bad. I physically, Yeah, I cannot listen to it.
I don't think I have anything in my life it's unlistenable. No,
I think I'll give something a shot, no matter what music that you kind
of hate, I'm like, all right, it's not my thing. I
did hate audio porn. I find that to be audio porn. Yeah,
where they're telling a story, it's like, get to it. Okay.
These are the things I've never experienced that I've just heard from other parties.
Also some stuff at nine o'clock. I I've created something as Oh, I
really, I do this every year on whatever show I'm working on, and
uh, it is a way for the listeners to vote on something that will
happen next week. We'll talk about that for a second at nine o'clock,
plus a couple other things and the world. Maybe catch you up on the
Saturday Night Live bet update mikey Oh, good, little points action maybe.
But for now, we should take a look at our Ghost Pepper Pavilion predictions
from last week. We did this on Wednesday ahead of the Cowboys and commandas
scorching Hot predictions. It's a big gap in time, much like the gap
between Scorching Out Predictions and the music that starts for this bed. We did
it Wednesday and now it's Monday. You sent yours in. I did,
and I was slandered by you two. And I don't like that all you
said they weren't hot. I had some hot stuff. Who said that the
show was it Danny or me? I thought it was both. I felt
like it was Danny, and Danny went on a thing like that I want
to win or something. I don't care. Is that just giving you the
full point for the Ryan Blaney thing? And gee? Thanks? But yes,
thank you? Like why was that even under discussion? I called Ryan
Blaney at the f and Charlotte Hornet or Charlotte Bobcats game. We update that
I thought I thought it Charlotte Carolina Panthers game, not the Bobcats Carolina Panthers
game. Yes you did, and I didn't think it was worthy of airtime.
I think it's an automatic full point. Okay, good, I agree.
Okay, So I'm at six, Danny's at three, you're at two,
The listeners are at point five. Yeah, well I have a track.
I have a yours. Let's do yours first, since you were gone?
How many points do you have on your MIC? I have six.
Danny has three, You have two listeners? Have point? Did you just
say that? Don't worry about that as I was throwing something ahead of this.
Okay, I have some audio here, Here we go. This is
Mikey on Wednesday. Hello friends, Hi JJ, Hi Danny, Hi KT,
Hello fans. Kat. I'm gonna give review last week's Ryan Blaney's situation,
and I trust you'll do the right thing. Prediction number one, Bones,
there will be a special team's touchdown in this game. This will happen
in this game. No special teams luck, but you know you don't see
that happening often a lot of special team I've been saying for a long time,
special team suchdowns are rare to ever see it, I know, which
makes that one the mildest of the three. Still good, but incorrect.
Also incorrect. I did leave it open for either team to do it,
if you'll know, Yeah, said Bones. But that doesn't I would have
argued that it became very evident early in the afternoon that the Commanders weren't going
to score much. Sam how First of all, I don't like how he
wears his pads. He tucks the sleeves under to show big arm. Yeah,
big gun dude, wear sleeves. Don't do the Baker Mayfield. You
look like a gooby. Did you notice he in his still photos he has
like he has tom Yorke eye. He does have some like crazy so I
squinner. His left eye is like three quarters shut, but in real time
he doesn't have that. It's nuts, but in his image the imaging that
they do. Actually, I watched him at a play quarterback in North Carolina
a lot and scattered him, you know, back when I did draft stuff,
and I dinged him to the sixth round because of his eyes. Yeah,
I was like, not on my team. Was he near the lead
of passing yards in the NFL though, I mean he's all right, yeah,
because the garbage time statistics. I think. Also, I have a
big theory that you can never win with an ugly quarterback, Like, shut
up, Siri. We can do hot, hot quarterback with big diers,
but if you have an ugly quarterback, no chance. And this is why
guys like Justin Herbert It's just never gonna happen. You're saying Justin Herbert's ugly.
Yeah, No, becauesn't herbts not ugly. I'm very good at telling
if dudes are good looking or not good looking. Okay, and here's a
shocker, Trevor Lawrence not good looking, not good looking. He'll never win
a super Bowl. He's fooling you with the hair. But he has a
boat face. He has the face of a boat or an Easter Island statue,
like Peyton Manning one one and no one's gonna get sit here and tell
you Peyton Manning or Eli Manning are hot. But I will tell you Peyton
Manning, Eli Manning when they get dulled up or not ugly guys a huge
forehead, but they're not ugly, they're not repulsive. Okay, but you're
saying Justin Herbert is no. Justin Herbert's better looking than both of the Manning
bro Eli keeps the dump like. He just keeps the dumb look on his
face constantly. Yeah yeah, but change the look on your face, you
know how, Like he can have resting bitch face. He just has a
resting dumb face. He kind of does. His face is what his face
is though. His face like, it doesn't change whether he's telling the joke,
whether he's it's the same. All right, I'm putting you to work
tomorrow. Top ten hottest quarterbacks in the NFL. Okay, and top ten
ugliest and three Uggos, Yeah, three uggos, top ten hottest three Uggos,
Yeah, only three. It's terribly mean. What but who's like a
but ugly never gonna win a super Bowl type right now? I mean,
I feel like everyone's got a chance. Besides Herbert, didn't Joe Flacco win
Superiot? You're you're saying Flaco's handsome guy's got does have a massive library.
He's just a hairy man. You're you're you're an idiot. If you're putting
Justin Herbert in the bottom three or five ugliest quarterbacks in the NFL, that's
four. No, he's a good looking dude, and maybe what he had
a little acne or scar, like a little bit of that, and we're
not going to dig him for that. Kevin, I'm sure not join the
club, right, I've got some too. My homes is not your classic
hottie. But he's not an ugly guy. No, he's not agree you
know, but Jalen hurts, he's kind of ugly. Oh shoes too busy
writing number one, Jalen hurts the NFL's She compiles her list, Bryce Young's
good looking. C J. Stroud's fine looking guy. I will admit that
since JJ admitted her infatuation with the beauty of Jalen Hurt, I don't understand
I last night he was on the bench and I was like, damn,
that is man. You just sweated for hours and it's raining, and somehow
he looks perfectly like he could literally just go to like a ball, like
he just looks always ready. Yeah, he's a good looking dude. Kirk
Cousins isn't ugly. He's got a weird, normal, dad looking dude.
Burrows hot. I don't know about Kenny Pickett off the top of behead of
the Steelers. I mean his fine Stafford is normal. Normal, Normal gets
you where you need to go. My thing wasn't on the ugliness, And
I love this. I think that's actually a very interesting theory. Who's the
ugly quarterback winner getting Super Bowl history? Maybe Brad Johnson or Trent Dilfer.
Yeah, yeah, Brad Johnson. Yeah, those are two never won one,
and that's proof that defense championships sometimes, right, just sometimes. But
is Brady one a bunch of them? M hm? You know, Roethlisberger's
pretty ugly. Yep, I mean that's a he looks like a bump on
a log. Yeah, I don't know. He looks like he spends a
third of each day on the toilet. He really does. I hope he
does, honestly. It's number two, preach number two. Hey, get
out of here. Multiple protesters will run out on the field collectively and stop
play at some point, probably the war, possibly oil, perhaps the dangers
of hot air ballooning. Perhaps there are some protesters at North Park. Oh
that buzz is too loud and too harsh for these hot predictions when you're wrong.
They staged a die in at North Park. Yeah uh but yeah,
no, your boy, I thought you knew it. I said a forty
one million viewers, This is it. That was the time. Get your
message across, get your ass out there, get your signs up peacefully,
peacefully, of course, don't blow anything up. No God, no,
no, but sorry, no dice, he has a good try man.
Thanks pretty sure. I'm a three vavoom. A glorious halftime Dolly parton wardrobe
malfunction will not happen, but a surprise appearance by her goddaughter Miley Cyrus will.
I thought that was very possible. I thought Miley might come out and
help. I thought that was I thought that was happening. Yeah, and
we'll get to Dolly talk. I don't know when, probably five minutes.
But when I saw her in front of the Star with the whole the star,
I'm like, well, clearly someone's coming out of the Star. Of
course I thought it was Miley. You're gonna do flowers in a fine Well,
no luck. There more on that than five. Here's Danny Bayless.
Tony Romo makes me moist. Tony Romo will reminisce about the epic battles between
Crazy Ray and Chief Z while referring to the commanders accidentally by their former nickname,
much to the discomfort of Nancy. Oh all right, I didn't hear
him, slip up, I didn't hear. I think Romo might have been
drinking during the game yesterday Bills and Eagles. Yep, when he called for
a fake punt, no, a fake field goal on fourth and seventh to
the Eagles and they would run steff On Digs onto the field. Yeah,
I was like, oh, it's a slip up. It could happen to
anyone, But dude, you you make more than anyone else at this you
have to perform. So I'm like, I don't I'm not that hard on
him. And I know some people don't give a crap at all who the
announcers are. I do care a little bit. When you took the value
of that job, raised it by about one hundred and fifty percent, okay,
and then everyone else started citing twenty million dollar deals to do that job.
No, I like when I know it's Romo, because I know it's
gonna drive me insane. Yeah, and I wonder I think people not from
around here still think, oh no, he's one of the best. He
was getting destroyed online yesterday by a national audience. I think people will have
turned on him as because he's gotten worse at it, and that's on him.
Yes, he doesn't care, he does not do it. I won't
care if I was him either. But as people who often begin sentences and
don't know where they're headed, we have a higher success rate of landing that
helicopter than Tony Romo does because he never lands it. You can tell when
he starts a sentence and he's gonna just to sort this out live, and
he never does. He almost never does, and he gets trails off or
makes a noise or says the wizard is gonna wizardly. Well. The thing
is about that too, is radio is a harder job than TV. Well,
for in terms of talent, because well, no, no, you
have to be more talented to do radio than on air TV. Agree.
I believe that some say the hardest job in the history of the world.
It's been up there with the roofers. Yeah, and construction and coal miners
too, get turned. I saw that list come out there the day I
don't know comes out the end of every year. It's where I saw it.
The thing that Tony has a problem with, well, okay, did
you hear the Red Zone channel freak out yesterday with the alarm go off.
I don't want to play it on the air because you're not supposed to play
alarms on the air. You know, you can get fine for that,
So I'm not even gonna play it. But he's going for the first time
in my twenty years career, the fire alarm is going off, and I'm
like, it's happened seven times this year at my station. Yeah, I
deal with that crap all the time. You don't read zone man, at
least someone frantically runs in and gives Scott Scott whatever his name is, what
is it, Scott got Hanson's got Hanson? An update? Hey, it's
an alarm going off. This is fine here. The alarm just goes off
and no one comes and tells us anything. Yeah, we just have to
casually assume that this terrible alarm is nothing. Yeah, and it's our service
to the metroples and all of our listeners out there for us to stay on
the third flour of a burning building if that were to be the case.
It's their service. That's why our job is harder. That's where we're comedy
first responders. Oh for one, for Danny huh yep, Julie fears to
pickle. Number two, Jim Nance will notice something peculiar going on on the
commander's sidelines. Upon further investigation, he and Romo will conclude that the items
that keep falling out of ron rivera his pant legs are in fact pickles.
Okay, someone wrote his predictions a minute before the segment he started, But
I tell you what they are. In fact, it is a tradition almost
that there is at least one food prediction from one of us each week,
and if there ever was a game for it, it would be the game
where Dak gets Turkey out of the Salvation Army bucket. Yeah. I don't
know if you had a Salvation Army bucket related prediction coming up. I don't.
I don't remember either. We'll find out. But pickles falling out of
his pant legs, I mean, that's a hell of a brave prediction.
That was a very bold one. And you know what, before you play
this last one, I just want to say, because he's not here,
I guess I just love Danny's voice. Yeah, everything he delivers is just
so someone pay him to do your Snickers commercials or whatever, like some big
national thing. Pay that man. The cadence is so good, Yes,
And he can hit a bunch of different registers. He can do all sorts
of tricks. You have a list of his characters, Oh my god,
so long, so many characters. I mean, I wouldn't even have time
to read them all, but I will, Angus Klott, No, that's
Downbeat, Heaven, Cleveland, Brown, Darth Vader, Popeye, Bill Clinton,
Rodney, Dangerfield, Carmela sent Prano, Lois Griffin, Pillsbury, dough
Boy Scooby Doo, Barnie Rubble Trayvon Diggs, and Kermit the Frog His fake
Trayvon Diggs will be coming back in a few weeks. Just listen to prediction
three and just listen to this voice, all right, number three? Got
a hope sows listening. Commander's quarterback Sam Howell will get his legs snapped and
have to leave the game on a medical vehicle, but someone forgot to charge
the battery on the golf cart instead, he will head to the locker room
on a turn of the century umbrella plane from the origins of flight music?
Did you hear that live? Did you miss that? Is this your first
time hearing that? No? I did he Again, I was either dude
about the board of the plane or whatever I was trying to listen in.
Yes, I did hear that. That's a man broadcasting to one. That
is, although if we don't generally predict the injury around me, no,
I don't like to do that. But had that happened ever, you know
a point would be awarded there. Yeah, absolutely, But yeah they charged
the golf cart too. We saw that moving around with no injury on it.
Just here's mine to active. Prediction one here John Madden. Players of
the game will be Dak Prescott, Ceedee Lamb, and Micah Parsons, and
one of them will choke a little after taking too big of a bible on
the Traducan It was not there was Dak and Deron Bland. I believe they
went with which was the right call there after Deron's record setting day. Uh,
here's the metif for me? What if I called you a wanker?
Prediction two. After a bad series on the field, Commander's quarterback Sam Howe
will be caught on TV on the bench rubbing lotion on his hands, making
the national TV audience go, what's he about to do? Didn't see that
personally, didn't see that. But it wouldn't be family friendly and you wouldn't
want to see that. Who was it, Sam how Sam how rubbing lotion
on his hands? That's after a bad series? Yeah, you know,
almost never see the lotion application to the hands. Not a lot of lotion
in football over the years. Not a lot. No, no, because
it's not a substance that has tacked to it. Yeah you need that,
Yeah, come on, let's go. Prediction three. Many people think Dolly's
only going to play some tunes from her new rock album, but she will
play a classic or two, including her hit song here You Come Again.
And during one of the courses, the camera will cut to Jerry Jones in
his suite making the O face. I did say she will play a classic
or two, Yeah, And she played two classics as she opened up with
Joelene and then went into nine to five No. And then Dolly went with
count a weird medley of We Are the Champions and then We Will Rock You,
which you can hear on her new album rock Star. Were you shocked
to see her at a Dallas Cowboy's cheerleader uniform? Yes? Were you shocked
to see her holding on to the star the whole time? Yes? Brother
Cash and I were trying to decode what was going on here and again Phase
one was oh my god, Miley Cyrus about to pop out of that hole
in the star, because what's it doing there? Yeah? And then it
was just it was very weird because things went wrong, not because of anything
else. I thought she looked great. You thought things went wrong live during
the Yes, Okay, yes they did. I mean I notice that watching
it, but I was you know in a crowded room watching it. She
was supposed to come out of the Star, Kay, did they? I've
been looking for articles in this. I haven't found one yet about somebody behind
the scenes explaining what happened. But it's quite clear they'll never say it.
Yeah, but it's she might say it like, hey, things were haywire.
It started late number one. There was a long time before that thing
started, and then they started it, And she's kind of awkwardly standing in
front of the stage. If that stage was not used for anyone else throughout
the rest of the show, and there was a hole in the middle of
it, it kind of makes you think that's where she was supposed to come
out from and be revealed in her cheerleading outfit with a shining, flashing star.
Who the hell else was gonna be on it? She wasn't supposed to
awkwardly saunter in front of the stage. So I'm guessing they were in the
damn Star. And they're like, we can't get the Pulley system to work.
It's not working. Delay, here's another two minutes, three minutes.
What should we do? Just we gotta make chicken salad out of chicken you
know what, get in front of the stage and we'll just do the plan
from there, which also leads me to think, because of the late start,
we didn't we cut out a song or something. Yeah, we had
to it, which gave us the awkward dual Queen ender. It had a
weird ending to it too, you know. Now, we did think,
is Brian May gonna come out of the star wailing on his guitar if we
want to do a queen thing? That seems odd. I mean, Brian
May's a legend, but I don't know if that's the crowds like, oh
my god, that's Brian May of Queen. I thought because she was holding
onto that star that they just realized we can't put her up there. She's
got to hold onto something because the way she was holding onto it. So
I didn't think she would like really sing, you know much. She didn't.
It was all lipstyacked, right, But when I saw her holding on
to it, it's when it hit me like they probably shouldn't never ran her
out there. Like I'm not saying like as like the selection process sounds great.
Let's get Dolly parton Texas legend, well, you know, American legend.
Whatever, We'll get her out there. It'll be good. She mean
the cowboys uniform. Oh, and then two days before it, you're like,
she can't stand on that thing. I don't think no, no,
no no. I think she probably had heels on or some hot shoe and
then suddenly she's walking around on grass because it was a mouth it was a
malfunction. What else explains that entire stage behind her with a hole in the
middle that did serve no purpose in the performance? That makes sense, that
could be broken, and I think it was broken. I think it just
couldn't. The rising mechanism didn't work, and they're like, I don't know,
get in front of the stage and we'll do it. Yeah, that's
it. Imagine her with with flares going off and a flashing star being raised
out of their dresses, f and cheerleader. That's the pop they were looking
for. So between the late start, the awkward ending of the set list,
and her awkward positioning, none of the three of which are on Dolly
Parton, it led to a little bit of awkwardness. And I think she
had high heels on and was walking around grass. I think Detective Dick Shale
has solved the case plus. Yeah, quite open and you know what,
just present something to me and I will crack it wide open. Did you
watch Packers and Lions at eleven? Yeah? Did you see the Jack Harlowe
halftime show? Uh? It was on, but I wasn't really watching.
It was the most half ass halftime show I've ever seen of anything. They
got a sheet, they got a big white bed sheet and laid it on
the ground and then put a drum set on there, and then he did
his songs and it was just the most awkward energy and it was dark and
there was no set or flare or anything to it. Who was the guy
behind him? It was so like two minutes really like I guess he was
his hype man, but he wasn't hype and he was mouthing the word it
was. It was all weird for as wrong as we now thought energy.
I think the Dolly Wit thing went it was. It dunked onto the Jack
Harlow performance by about a thousand. I don't even think it was Maybe awkward,
yes, but I don't think it was bad at all. I really
liked the Dolly thought that was great. I thought she looked awesome. And
the fact that you're gonna wear that? And how about when she was doing
the queen lyric of I've made mistakes, I've made a few, she glanced
down at her outfit and shrugged. It pretty funny, Like that's funny.
She knows, she knows what she's doing. I didn't like that she was
holding onto the It made me feel bad. Do you have dreams about her,
Mike heat No, I didn't not have a Lily Tomlin. I only
have room for one member of the nine to five movie cast in my heart,
and that's Lily Tomlin, not the one most had picked, no,
readily available in most nine to five drafts. I didn't notice her holding the
stage regularly. Yes, she was old. I had to, but it
made me. I am tired, you know. But either way, in
the NFL is buzzing though, because I saw what they were going to put
a little more effort into the other Thanksgiving shows on Thanksgiving next year, Like
they were like, no, this is something we work, we want to
do this for all three games night Game two on Thanksgiving. The Cowboys have
already been doing it, just Charlotte wanted to do it, you know.
Yeah, but yeah, it was interesting, Yeah, it was cool.
It had everyone talking. I'll tell you what everyone talking at Thanksgiving too,
Dolly Oh wow, I mean it was from that alone. You scored where
you guys shocked that at the outfit when you saw it, Yes, I
was. I didn't think you would be coming out like that. I immediately
googled how old is Dolly Parker? I know what, seventy seven? Yeah,
I think we all did that. I was like, wow, how
she gave seventy seven? Oh yeah, we googled it. We googled it,
like Kevin just said. I was like, well, great, it
was shocking. It was just like, wow, I thought it was came
out there, okay, yeah, No, she didn't look No, she
looked great, she looked bad. I just I was very shocked. I
thought the ending was weird that I thought we were gonna get a lot of
rock melodies too from her album. I'm glad we did get Joeyne in ninety
five. That's cool, but uh, okay, well move on. Coming
up next Mikey's Morning News So Much, So very much, including Miriam Webster,
has announced it the word of the Year. Oh Miriam, it can
all be yours next. On ninety seven, won the Free
