Some texture did say that the Emma Stone catpee thing was from when she was
on Kimmel reading mean tweets. Ah, so it wasn't just completely out of
the blue, and she laughed at it, so we can laugh at it
too. But I think she's gorgeous. She is gorgeous. Yeah, I
don't care what she smells like. Well, yeah, you would care if
it was cat pee. Yeah, you jack man. Nah Ah, that's
so disappointing, taking all current ball and chain statuses out of play. If
that were to happen, the opportunity lovely evening, a dinner, and maybe
more if you play your cards right with Emma Stone, I mean her joining
Christina and I yeah, okay, and then you find out, we find
out she smells disgusting. Yeah, fight through yeh tick that box. You're
gonna work up some stak anyways, huh, go upon your way, put
a steak on that love what all right? You want to enter the Ghost
Pepper pavilion one more time to our review of predictions that we all lay down
on Friday. Every Friday, we will make three spicy siracha level of predictions
for the upcoming Cowboy game that happened yesterday afternoon, scorching hot predictions and when
we see how we damn did so. The current points are allocated as such.
I have four and a half, Dan, he has two and a
half. Kevin has one point. Listeners have a half point, which kind
of a freebie we threw out to him. But I think we got it
live action this week. Okay, who do you want to start with?
I think I have Danny first. Danny not here to defend himself. I
will act as his advocate and we'll see if he got anything right all right
from last Friday. Number one Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni will mouth an explative
that will be acknowledged by the booth in some way. WHOA, all right,
we have to chat. Wow, now you know me, I'm a
lenient on point giveaways. And he absolutely did. I mean I saw him
mouth multiple expletives. Mh. But that's not much of a prediction that you
know you'll see Nick Sirianni mouthing what you believe to be an expletive. It
was not acknowledged by Oh wait, yeah, was there something acknowledged by the
booth? You almost get every case coach do it right. Yeah, you
know, I didn't. I didn't notice the booth acknowledging that they're suging yelling
at it. Rest. Okay, Yes, there was one where the on
field mic caught somebody yelling and they said, I'm unhappy with that. Yes,
that, but that was it was separate from Nick Sirianni. I don't
know. I mean, of course, yes, you're gonna get an NFL
coach mouthing the F word, and we did, and you did the lip
reading on it too, because the first one, it's the first one was
it's not even close or something like that. Yeah, that was one where
we had a nice slow and he said it's not even close. No,
it's not because I had to do some hardcore lip reading. But then after
that he definitely had an effort to but unacknowledged from the booth. And then
it's like, we don't we're gonna make wimpy predictions, like to say,
hey, they're going to catch a coach cussing, and would Dan even want
a half point for that? Yeah, I don't know if he would want
a point for that or not. So I lean a temporary half point,
okay, and we can discussed with him off the air. Now I knew
I'm not cussing on the sideline. Wow, I mean this is a tweet
from Oscar Ram SIRIONI just cussing. They made a reference to him not liking
it, marked it three twenty nine in the fourth quarter. That's the one
you were mentioning. Okay. I mean they both did kind of call it
out. So technically it would be right, let's go half point. Let's
go half point okay, and if he wants to contest that, it should
be more than that. Friday he says, you know, there'll be a
you know, a some random run for Rico Dawdle will run for a first
NAT and like that's we're not here to do that. Yeah, it'll be
heads or you know, the coin toss will be heads, all right?
Yeah? Yeah, I who know? So ten and a half point half
point? Okay, here you go, number two. You will see a
Cowboys player wearing some type of Rangers gear during the broadcast. Didn't get that
terrible prediction. Yeah, they don't care. Half does half the Cali roster
not know that the Rangers won the World Series? I bet they know.
I bet there's ten dudes on the roster that don't know that the Rangers want
there's ten that don't know. Yeah, I bet there's more than that,
But not half, No, not half. It's probably closer to twenty though,
which you mean, well, you say active roster's forty six, so
yeah, pretty probably pretty close. But no point awarded, no point.
Oh you watched up bad. But number three Jalen Hurts will scramble out of
the pocket and take off for what looks like a certain touchdown, but his
effort will fall short when he surprisingly slips on a grilled cheese sandwich that a
fan frisbeed onto the playing field. Yeah what about when he got hurt?
Though at the end of the verse it looked bad. Electro Bat is like,
I don't know what tank was supposed to do. He's trying to sack
the guy and the tank was going A tank was going, I'm gonna go
for Hurts. His legs. No, not at all, but there was
certainly no grilled cheese sandwich involved. And I guess if he's gonna do kind
of an easy one with the Sirianni thing, he's backs it up with that
with a food orient with a no chancer, although I think I had no
chancer too, you did, Danny most likely to put food into it,
Yeah, for sure, the chicken palm in your in your pocket. Okay,
it's a tentative half point. Let's just leave in tentative half point for
Danny got it. Okay, let's move on. No, I loved it.
On a third and one, the Cowboys will have the gull to attempt
a tush push brotherly shove ham ram play. They will fail immediately following it
with the Philly special on fourth and one. Foe. Yeah, didn't work
out for me there. They didn't do the toush push once they did or
did? I think so? Well, it's not like the QB sneak is
a new Yeah, we have a quarterback, right, and maybe they should
have because they didn't get it by much. Yeah, he got it.
Did they say he got on the first effort or the spin out? I
thought they were saying the spin out that was also live and there's no whistles,
But even probably got it on the first one to because their little tussle
had already begun when he completed that spin out thing. I don't know they
got it on the first one, but you could do a whole hour on
the damn tush push. It's the whole thing. Now, how does it
work so well for them? Yes? How is it Kelsey just being the
roto router? I think it is. Does he seem to just dive down
and you chop like there has to be a way to figure out what they're
doing different? And maybe it is just Jalen Hurts and his super legs.
Yeah he Kelsey said he he hates it, like he doesn't like it being
called it hurt. Yeah, so yeah, his job is to tunnel.
Yeah, not a lot of fun there, but god, it works every
time. Second one that was wild Prediction number two the broadcast will make some
reference to the hit TV show Always Sonny in Philadelphia. I don't like that.
I didn't get that one. And they were talking about it when they
were doing crowd shots and they're like, there's Bradley Cooper and there's Bryce Harper,
Here are other people in the house. Mike Trout is here today.
You know, we had no Mac. We couldn't get Mac. I thought
we might get Mac Mac and Ryan Reynolds. Sorry, buddy, damn it.
Oh well, oh for two, I think you got a chance here
though. This is sounder sick epect to fryes again. This is to let
you know it's recorded production. Three. There will be a live animal on
the field at some point you're in the game. Okay, Okay, you're
all hopped up on this possum. Technically there was an eagle. Okay.
I saw the tweet, Yes, sure, or Friday when you said this
that they have a live eagle every game. And I didn't know that.
Okay. See, I kind of believe you didn't, weren't thinking that,
or may not have known that. Man. I think we were talking though,
because we were talking about this in the spirit of the Texas Tech Possum.
Yeah, we were talking about something running onto the like. You know,
I'm fair, but I don't think. Yeah, I don't know.
I wish Dana was JJ represent Danny. What do you think if he made
a prediction that's literally part of their pregame no, you know what, I
guess you can't play it without the eddy better. Did you say during the
game? Oh, you know what, that's fair. We'll see here,
beautiful, there will be a lot animal on the field at some point you're
in the game. Okay, they're at there. It is during technicality we
needed during the game, no points awarded. I agree with you. I'm
not even gonna fight that, thank you. All right, let's go to
Mike the firm. But fair, my anus was tender prediction one bombs away.
CED Lamb and A. J. Brown will combine for two hundred and
fifty total yards in this game. All right, let's do the math here.
I already got it done. CD Lamb. Thanks to CD. Hey,
that's what combined. Eleven catches for one hundred and ninety one yards.
Feed that man one ninety one. AJ Brown seven catches for sixty six yards.
The quick math will tell you that's two hundred and fifty seven yards.
Gotta buy seven two hundred and fifty seven yards. We done, did it?
AJ? Definitely one that I questioned in the moment about what the the
uh I was like? These teams pretty easy for those two guys. Yeah,
but okay, and I do hear that, but not really. I
don't have to take a pickaway a point. I mean if calling two receivers
to go one twenty five each, essentially, yeah, I think that city's
good. Dude, he's really him the ball and it is what eleven targets
six I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Yeah, sixteen targets eleven or like with
sixteen targets not enough and it might not have been, especially at the end
when they're bashed up and they're losing a cornerback every play on each sideline back
to back. We do whe This game was really lost. We was talk
about the little things most in the third quarter when they the Eagles come out
and scored twenty one to seventeen, and then we did nothing and the Eagles
come out and scored like at twenty eight seventeen. Yeah, that's where you
lost the game. This was a dense game. There's a lot such in
it, and it's human nature to tend to focus on the very end as
always, which we did. You know, and that last you're at the
six yard line. You know you got your miracle. You are at the
doorstep, and you know the other thing I didn't talk about was the damn
fumble right at the end was swift rammed into whoever pulling guard or receiver what
I don't even know who it was, and lays it on the turf,
and I swear I had a moment. I'm like, I thought Micah was
going to pick it up and go and it'd be this miracle, legendary cowboy
game. Micah, as great as he is, needs these needs the signature
moments, you know, I shows and just something so unorthodox that they screw
up lay it on the ground, He picks it up, stiff arms,
hurts and houses it and we do this the easy way and then they as
the rookie guard jumps on it. That would have been a different ten fifty
yards of maybe sixty yards of field position, even if they didn't work or
able to scoop and score or anything. With six yards of field position.
What a saved jib? What forty seconds on the clock. Yeah had But
to go from having a chance at the six yard line to taking your final
snap of the of the game at the twenty seven yard line, yeah,
full on disaster. Okay, good, good point, there, you got
it. Thank you. Two and fifty seven yards for seed n thank a
J. Brown combined break you too, Hey Hey, No, Eagles head
coach Nick Siriani will have a tense interaction with a Cowboys player during the game.
There will be barking, finger pointing, and other visible unpleasantries. Okay,
the endless drops provided by the one word reactions to the predictions that you
keep in there are incredible. You have a vault if you want them of
just all that stuff. Okay, yeah, no, I say no point
for that, Okay, right, I mean there's no there was nothing.
I don't There was a couple of moments where and I think there's more of
this in NFL games than maybe we even know. It's head coaches looking at
each other with with f you face, I'm gonna kill you. Yeah,
like McCarthy. I saw him do it once or twice, and Sirianni definitely
does it and barks at the other sideline. Can they really see each other's
facial expressions that far off? Yes, yeah, they There is something like
a personal one on one battle between head coaches, especially regular you know,
division opponents, that kind of thing. Yeah, they can. I mean
Sirianni, we last year was it when he's barking directly at the other coach,
I think the most punchable face. Oh my god, he's so hate
and after a game like that, I almost expect them to have I was
waiting, like if him and McCarthy had words, I might have argued for
a point here, but no, there's a handshake and a hug and good
luck and what a team you got out there. Excuse the liberty boil boy.
He's a haterle s ob Siriannie, I'm with you. And he looks
like he's got kind of whiskey eyes too, you know, John sitting in
and he's got the little smirk when he has some halotoss I guarantee it and
they slow mo at all that sounds like stuck. Yeah, he smells like
Emma Stone, smelling like cats. I see Emma Stone and Nick Sirianni being
used in the same sentence today. Are they going to be next year's uh?
Traylor? Taylor and Travis, Emma Stone and Nick Sirianni. Emma do
better, please, I'm gonna go masturbate. Final prediction ew Eagles will attempt
the toush push on a big fourth and one and running back Kenneth Gangwell's hand
will actually penetrate QB Jalen Hurts who will fumble with pleasure? Oh it's childish.
I left and I was watching for it too. I mean I was
keeping an eye on it. I didn't think that was gonna hit. Like
if he fumbled, had he fumbled the dish push, maybe he could have
Maybe could be was a butt fumble. They had a butt fumble? Was
that the last one? That the swift the last one? Yeah? They
had three offing fumbles, right, and we didn't get Jack. No,
we just had scoon Maker be an inch short. You know, the only
turnover that game. Can you remember it? The last play, the last
play of the game. Yeah, they even up ruling that a fumble.
Imagine which the one hundred plus fantasy leagues that were lost because the minus one
point for CD fumbling. Oh man, I did think about that. You
know, it's monster game. I need half a point. That's by half
point because of this meaningless fumble. God, stupid well, no points awarded.
So there a point for you and a point for Danny, half point
for for the dinger for you know, basically saying NFL coach will cuss and
uh yeah, got me one for CD and AJ going two fifty plus before
we get to some audio from the game, including Dingu's morning News pull out
edition. I want to play. This is from the prede the other day.
So this is your what you're gonna hear first is the Astros on October
first, the day they won the Al West. Remember how but hurt we
were that the Rangers didn't get it done in Seattle then had to have a
six hour flight to Tampa Bay to take on the race. Well, the
Astros win the division and here's Alex Bregman in their locker room. A lot
of people were wondering what it was going to be like if the Strows didn't
win the division. I guess we'll never know. Then you fast forward about
thirty days to the parade, and this is the big moment from their crade.
Corey Segers. I didn't know what he was referencing. He did at
the time. I didn't know the Astros did that. I didn't pass I
saw that all over. So here's Corey Seger at the parade. Corey Seeger,
who a had an appearance after the parade at a Canes delivering chicken to
fans at a Cane's really yeah, And I had an autographed sign yesterday.
These guys were these guys have been booked not to butt. I'm like,
give me an off season. And also the guy who doesn't ever talk,
Corey Seeker, I just got one thing to say. You know, everybody
was wondering what would happen if the Rangers didn't win the World Series. I
guess we'll never know. Did the crowd get the reference, do you think?
Or were they just pumped just because it's a decent line in and of
itself. Now the team, oh yeah, it was hype, dude,
I love it. This is great. We need any and all of this.
Yes, smack talk make it more juicy. It's baseball. You're not
going to beat each other with bats. At the end of this, you're
just kind of making it juicy. I mean, you might throw one hundred
mile power fast, but at some of it. Yeah, but no one's
going to hit each other with a bat, a club each other to death.
And I don't Okay, do you think next year in the first series
they will be high and tight one two Corey? Because of that quote,
I'd say fifty to fifty. I just but if they do it, and
it's not a headshot because headhunting is a coward. You know, if they
plunk him, it's still worth it. And then that adds to the the
fun. Yeah, we need more s talk in all of sports. Yeah,
more billboard material because it doesn't matter. It just matters. After the
game when you win, you be like, oh, we see you gotta
fired up. You really motivate. It doesn't matter you're not playing harder.
Yeah, you know, we need more of it individuals in all sports.
It's great. Friday April fifth, Rangers Astros, we're going here at the
Globe? Is that the first? Is that season opener? No? Sea's
number is actually March twenty eighth against the Cubbies at here we hang in the
banner. If I hang in the banner that day, Huh, I don't
know the you doing the first? Maybe you do it Saturday, No,
you don't get Thursday, Thursday, split it up, Thursday three o'clock home
opener? No no, no, maybe you do it. Maybe you do
it Friday, April fifth, in front of the Astros. Uh. I
love that for juice, but I think again, it's a business. Well,
you wait till the Royals are in Town on a Tuesday, and you
turn that into Banner Night the A's Tuesday, April ninth. Okay, yeah,
yeah, that's you know. I guarantee a packed house sell out on
a day that you wouldn't normally have it. If you like the Astros,
you're gonna be fine no matter what. Well, there's some of that great
job man. Oh, thank you, man, thank you really good today.
I like you. Okay, we'll coming up next. I've got more.
I have audio from his game, including did Little Baby kk poopa's pants
during the broadcast Next Time night? So it won the freak
