Speaker 1: I'll start to it. You want to present some off
the bench with Jacob Hester and T Bob Abert.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: Off the bench with Jacob Hester and T Bob aber.
Speaker 2: I got to come off the pitch.
Speaker 1: Now here's Jacob Hester and T Bob Abart.
Speaker 2: Yo, what's going on y'all? Welkme back?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 2: TV hour number two, Jake, what's up about? How was uh?
How was Daddy Daycara? Dropping everybody off? You could go?
You made it? Okay? Yeah?
Speaker 3: I thought yesterday was the last day, but Katie and
Harlow didn't get into almost four am, so there was
no chance. They got delayed, delayed, delayed, just over and
over and over again.
Speaker 4: So luckily they got home. But uh, it's all.
Speaker 2: The matters, it's all the matters.
Speaker 3: Mom and baby home safely today, like the uh the
Italian job, trying to like find the best way to
get to the school because we left about five minutes
pass when we should leave.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was waiting on Jackson. Now you're in it.
Speaker 3: He's you know, getting coming in on two weeks just
football stuff and just taking a sweet time. And so
Peter had to be creative and it's hard to be
creative in a you know, an expedition.
Speaker 2: It's not.
Speaker 3: I wasn't in a mini coup like Mark Wahlberg was
in the Italian JOm No.
Speaker 5: No, yeah, I mean, well that point, you just gotta
smash through cars, get your big brush guard on there.
Like Taylor's high school friends. Just just nice cars. Taylor's
friends today, Yeah, chure, they love a good brush guard,
no doubt.
Speaker 2: I don't see them mudding anywhere.
Speaker 3: We got them there like seven thirty seven, so we
had some time to spare and then got back into
traffic to get here.
Speaker 5: Bro, aren't you glad that you decided to leave the
New York Knicks behind? Aren't you glad that you just
decided to renounce that fandom and come over to the
good side and become a Pelicans fan?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: For two years you and Danny shamed me. Yeah, in
becoming a Pelicans fan. Yeah, when I've been a Knicks
fan pretty much my whole life.
Speaker 2: Well, that's good.
Speaker 5: I shame you because now I blame you because obviously
you're the correlating factor with the Pelicans sucking in the
Knicks getting good. You are a legitimate basketball Jonah, where're
we are? Going to have to feed you to the
whale for Joe Dumars to be successful.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's more worth their almost said a
bad word, bad front office.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you're probably right. Yeah. I think it's you know,
the health of their players.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you probably anytime they get rid of a player
and the player turns into like an All Pro sub
Version Game, All Defense, our most improved player or something
like that.
Speaker 2: Unreal, absolutely unreal, but I'll take the blame.
Speaker 5: Coming up on this hour, though, we will talk about
Peans got Op TV mail bag come up next and
you extended mail back today as uh, you know, it's
the off season, so we no longer have coach Mulky
or anything. At a thirty, probably talk some NBA playoffs.
I'll let Jordan pump some Pelicans. Shout out Pelican Scoop, Jeoran,
Where did everybody find Pelican Scoop on YouTube?
Speaker 6: One of four five Pelican Scoop or this time in
Pelican school was going? A million videos gonna pop up.
Speaker 5: If you google Pelican Scoop, will will the channel pop
up that you can google?
Speaker 6: Sometimes you can even put in Zion Williams in one
of my videos.
Speaker 2: Will pop up. Okay, nice yea, yeah, be cracking cracking
a coat sounds like Jordan's a big deal. Now, Taylor,
do you have any podcasts you need a pip?
Speaker 7: Uh?
Speaker 8: Yeah? The Huddle Up Podcast?
Speaker 2: Okay, when did? When does the drop? I do one
a week?
Speaker 5: There we go, what day or he's kind of moving
target usually Wednesdays. Okay, so go check out the Huddle
Up podcast.
Speaker 2: Talk about in Huddle Up? Yeah, I feel like, why
do you never talk about that? You should this.
Speaker 8: Platform an NFL podcast, all things NFL.
Speaker 2: You should use this platform.
Speaker 5: I knew he did it, but not really like not, no,
he never talks about it.
Speaker 2: I feel like a bad teammate. I didn't know.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I feel that I do too, But I feel
like it's also kind of on him to take of
your study.
Speaker 2: You're on this show every morning. She'd be telling people.
Speaker 8: I got I got so many things running through this head.
It's hard to I know, to keep track, trust me,
I know, I know I'll take tea Bop hates running backs,
by the way.
Speaker 2: That's I mean yea Delaware wunner backs.
Speaker 8: We were talking about Marcus Yarns, the.
Speaker 2: Delaware run had a boy. Yeah.
Speaker 8: Well, Jake, I mean tea boy doesn't care.
Speaker 3: Wow, te defend yourself, sir.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 5: No, the entire it was funny because the entire premise
of my conversation was pointing out the rookie minting camp
starts today and between like the udfas even some of
the drafted guys, the tryout guys. Uh, that these are
names that you really don't need to know. You know,
ninety nine percent of these names won't mean anything to you.
And yet for these guys, these are literally the most
important days of their life, like their entire life's work
is on the line, and it's such a flory of activity,
incredible competition. I I now look back at it with
very rose colored lenses, where even though it was very
intense and anxiety radling, because you know, again it felt
like your job was on line every single rep of
every single day. Yeah, it was also deeply satisfying if
you're a competitor, and super fun and super intense and
socially it was it was great getting to know new
guys and learn new stories and all this stuff. But
I guess again, my whole point is pointing out the
kind of interesting disconnect between it could mean less than
nothing to us, and yet for these guys, they're attempting
to become a part of the zero point one percent
and it means everything to them. And the stakes are
that if you don't make it, well, you're backstocking shelves
at Costco, you're working in Amazon or as yeah, you're
working at Amazon, or a chat said, get that CDL,
tying to get that CDL.
Speaker 2: You know me, I got my CDL.
Speaker 5: Me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll tell you.
Speaker 3: It's funny that y'all mentioned that we catch up other
in football season, we had one of Oregon's offensive linemen,
Marcus Harper. He joined us on off campus like all
season long, and now he's going through the undrafted free
agent stuff right now, and you know, we were talking
to him and giving him some advice and talking about
the things that you have to make sure that you do,
like knowing the plays and playing fast, all those type
of things. But it is hard. It's incredibly hard to
make it as an undrafted free agent. Hell, it's hard
to make it as a like fifth, sixth, seventh throne,
yeah as well.
Speaker 2: It's just it is.
Speaker 4: It's difficult to make the NFL shocker, but it is wild.
Speaker 3: The fact that you've worked your whole life to get
to this point and you're still working, and you just
went through like five or six, you know, months of
some different work, but it was still at work to
get to this point. And you have an opportunity. You
can put on NFL uniform, NFL helmets, the whole deal.
But but with all that work and all the things
you've put into it, it can go away in about
twelve weeks.
Speaker 2: You are one now.
Speaker 5: Granted, look the higher you go up in the chain,
the more security you have. But try out if you guys,
you are one bad practice away.
Speaker 3: And think about that though, because like you've done all
these things to get to this point, and you have
no safety blanket.
Speaker 2: There's no safety net. Like, if you fail in that practice,
you fail in that career. It is unfortunately.
Speaker 3: Now the good thing about being an undrafted free agent,
the play that you make can also be that failure,
but in the positive way.
Speaker 2: So this is so.
Speaker 5: I agree, and we talked about that right to try
out for all thirty two teams essentially, and look, practice
squads are way larger now, which is great, provides more jobs,
more opportunity. The question is, though, as we continue to
take away preseason games.
Speaker 2: How do you get your tape out there? Now? Is
it more word of mouth?
Speaker 5: Because like I mean, yes, everybody has the preseason games,
but everybody doesn't get the practice film now yeah, no, no, no, no, no, yeah,
that's what I'm saying, right, So it's like it has
to like performing well in practice or what like I get,
Like we were talking about Josh Williams, Like I would bet
on Josh Williams making an NFL team, but it's Taylor
pointing out the Bucks running back room is going to
be a hard one to make it in. So how
does Josh Williams get his name out there with limited
preseason game reps?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you got two guys that aren't going to play
in the preseason. I think your top two backs aren't
going to play there, so that helps you opens up.
Okay from reps, but honestly, like you try to make
that team first, like you try to make the Bucks first,
and that play can happen in practice where you're going
to get reps. I've seen every year I was in
the NFL, we'd have an undrafted free agent make a
play in the preseason practice and make the team. Just
that that that's going to happen. Every team is gonna
have one of those guys. But for other teams, Oh
my god, it's true though if you talk about but
that is what he did last year, I know, and
because he got hurt and like didn't even like play
most of camp. Guy makes three catches and we were
calling him Joe holds.
Speaker 2: You got you got to see Mason Tipton made after
killing it. Gosh.
Speaker 4: Anyways, God, don't make me talk about him nless he earns.
Speaker 5: Just talking about like he may not be a good
we know the side of the Saints awful roster that
we celebrate him as much as we did, but he
did do the exact thing you're just talking about, career
on the line, and he found a way to make
the places to make.
Speaker 4: The didn't really do a whole lot after that, But
I know I.
Speaker 5: Used to always be like I remember like making a
conscious decision not to practice knee braces because I was like, shoot,
he catch a knee injury, they got to.
Speaker 2: Keep you around. Well they got paid too. Yeah, so
what I'm saying, you catch a knee injury, you get paid.
Speaker 5: You got to stick around for a year, maybe learn
the NFL ropes unfortunately.
Speaker 4: Well it could be the other it could be the
bad part.
Speaker 3: Like Dick Dixon was going to make the Lions roster
and then got hurt. Now I got paid, Yeah that's yeah,
that's but like he was rolling in there. He was
like the third tight end team. So uh but like
Darren Waller, all right, do you remember how he made
to the Raiders? All right, so no idea Waller. He
was on the Ravens practice squad. All right, they're about
to play the Raiders. Now he's practic squad guy. So
he's not dressing or anything. But practice squad. You warm
up like you go out there, you throw some balls,
you do some different things. So RG three was a
backup for the Ravens and Darren Waller and RG three
are working on red area stuff, you know, like Darren Waller,
damn dude, fall start crazy. So they were warming up
before the game and Darren Waller was like trying to
catch high point balls in the red area and he
kept telling RG three.
Speaker 4: Throw it higher, throw it higher.
Speaker 3: And he went up there and he kept making play
after play after play, and RG three said, he looks
up and he sees Reggie McKenzie, who was the Raiders
GM staring at Darren Waller couldn't take his eyes. The
next week, Waller is on the active Raiders squad. What Yeah, that's.
Speaker 5: A crazy story, and then goes to be one of
the most productive tight ends in the NFL.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because he was watching a practice squad guy before
game no pads go up there and can.
Speaker 1: How quickly will this segment leave the rails. It's off
the bench with Hester and t Bob.
Speaker 2: Sorry about that, guys.
Speaker 5: It looks like Matt Moscona, in an effort to force
us to stay on time, has caused the system to
give us a heart out without time that I'm just kidding. Yeah,
we were just texting Matt. He was like, that's one
way to stay on get y'all to stay on time.
So somebody's somebody's playing with us.
Speaker 4: Ah, I would hate that automatically fire keep you on time.
Speaker 2: Well, it's fine if I know we have a heart out,
Like we can guide the show that way because.
Speaker 8: You know, you know, at the end of the hour
there's a heart out because there's nothing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure, that was funny, though, at least Jordan,
it is funny that some people don't like no matter
how long they've done it, they don't understand the heart out.
Like I was doing NFL radio doing the draft, Bill
Pollian was on, man's just going to mow through it.
Speaker 2: Doesn't care.
Speaker 4: No, you can can count down, you can get doesn't
care going to mow through a heart out.
Speaker 3: Jimbo Fisher, who joins me on Tuesdays in college football season.
Speaker 2: Nope, Jim, but I'm I'm in the zoom. Hey me
don't care.
Speaker 5: So it's interesting to me, and the Cannon's kind of
that way as well. It's interesting to me that Pollion
doesn't know better from doing so much television. I thought
he did more respectful clock But generally I understand it
because these guys just, you know, I'm just gonna call
like I see it. I think they think they're above
it a bit, you know, Like, no, I'm a football god,
I've been an executive for thirty years whatever, Like I
don't care what the average heer's need, Like you need
to hear what I'm gonna say. Sending with Jimbo, like
I said, sending with my old man, He's like, f you,
I'm trying to prove a point Like these commercials are
gonna be fine. Not realize that it's not exactly how
it works. But yeah, the best part is.
Speaker 2: Think about this.
Speaker 5: There's no career radio man blowing through the heart out right,
you know what I'm saying. There's somebody that came up
in the media blowing through the heart out because they
understand the kind of moving parts and dynamics that play there.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: The best part is Jimbo just keeps going and we
just act like we're still on there. Sometimes like a
good point coach go the commercial hit it's already.
Speaker 5: Either yeah, well, Ryan Braxon is how are we going
to increase revenue?
Speaker 2: How about mid segment ads? Brilliant?
Speaker 5: Yes, Roder guys, get Gordon and get it done two

worse and you're like, okay, well here's the church. This
is what I deserve, is what I need, And they're.
Speaker 2: Like, nah, wait, what do you what do you what

able to set up, so we don't have any questions
built up. So go ahead and start to percolate your
mail bag questions uh in the chat and we'll get to.
Speaker 2: It next segment.
Speaker 5: Any other thoughts of rookie Camp. I feel like that
was a fascinating story in Darren Waller. Thank god we
got to end before the hard again Rick Camp starting.
You want to hear Kevin Banks doing well, You want
to hear Tyler Schuck's doing well, And we'll just see
like kind of outside of that, how.
Speaker 2: About this what's old is new again? Guys?
Speaker 5: What did they used to say when we were growing up?
Live by the three, Die by the three. Well, the
Celtics have been judged and found wanting at least for
one game. Pretty crazy night in the NBA last night,
a couple of huge playoff leads blown. Celtics were up
seventy five fifty five with five minutes left in the
third quarter, only to slowly but surely watch Og and
Obi in the Knicks and Brump City Company come back
and win that game one eight, one oh five in overtime.
Speaker 2: It was a great game.
Speaker 5: But the story is the Celtics brick forty five threes,
finish fifteen of sixty on the night. Out of those sixty,
forty five were uncontested. They only shot thirteen to forty
five on those. Norman they be better than that, right,
So it's so here's what I want to ask y'all,
Because this is the first time the Nicks to beating
the Celtics all season.
Speaker 2: Yep, it's only a third time last eleven.
Speaker 5: So here you have a situation where it took a
record setting bad shooting night to create a three point
overtime win for the Knicks. So surely this is just
a blip, right? Or does winning this game in Boston
it's the playoffs. Things get wonky nowadays, yep. Or in
the play Is there something more to this win or
is it just a blip?
Speaker 4: I think there's something to this. I've gone through this.
Speaker 3: I'm sure everybody in this room at some point's gone
through something like this in sports. And you always hear
me reference our twenty twelve I believe it was playoff
game against the Ravens when I was in Denver.
Speaker 2: We lost, We lost in double overtime.
Speaker 3: And three four weeks before that, we went to Baltimore
and beat the hell out of the I mean, we
just stomped on them. They couldn't stop us, they couldn't
get anything going. We were the aggressor well like we
felt like, okay, well, well we got the advantage here,
and in that game, even tea like, we had a
lead and we just like we're fine, we're good, we're good,
and they're not gonna come back. Well then we got
punched in the mouth and then it was like one
play that the Ravens entire fortune just kind of changed
and they hit the hell Mary. Yeah, and it's like
they just kept making more plays than we did. Yeah,
crazy punt return and kick return for a touchdown.
Speaker 2: In the same game we lost. Yeah, so the.
Speaker 5: Flacco over the Yeah that Hugh Jake was on that team,
deeper than the deepest man, never forget.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was like Raheem and Justin Tucker. Yeah, it
was now not something like it it was anymore.
Speaker 4: He went to UCLA In case you were wondering, he
wanted his whole bio.
Speaker 2: Justin Tucker.
Speaker 3: I think it was a rookie who just got released.
But I think he was a rookie. He I mean,
he kicked like a forty seven yard in double overtime.
They win the game. But like we felt like we
had every mental edge, every physical edge on them, and
all of a sudden, they make like two three plays.
It's like maybe we don't and then we didn't, and
then they went and they parlayed that into.
Speaker 2: A Super Bowl title. That's yeah.
Speaker 5: I mean, look, Flacco Delaware, second Flacco Delaware mentioned of today,
But but again, see now that's where it gets u.
Speaker 4: Joe Flacco started before we went to Delaware, Tarlington.
Speaker 2: I couldn't even tell you actually.
Speaker 5: Boston College, Delaware, Boston University.
Speaker 2: Boston Community College.
Speaker 3: That means not in Boston, I'm saying, Boston, Ontario, Vermont.
Speaker 2: Vermont's gotta be it.
Speaker 9: No pitt Okay, damn okay. Yeah, in Delaware State, he
really would crossed the Flacco. I went to the crosstown.
Speaker 5: I should have done Delaware Community College, the feeder into uh.
Speaker 2: Shout out to the to the buzz.
Speaker 3: But to your point, yeah, there absolutely can be something.
Now the Celtics champions veteran group, they can hit that
reset and they can go back out.
Speaker 2: There and flush that.
Speaker 3: But that's not always easy, even if you are a veteran,
even if you have won a championship, And so the
next game wildly important for them to get off and
you know, to a good start, because you.
Speaker 2: Don't lose both home games. Thats what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: You don't want to go back to the Garden and
that crowd with some hope.
Speaker 2: They've been dying for hope for twenty I've.
Speaker 5: Been looking for Knicks fans celebrating the win last night
on Twitter.
Speaker 2: All day, and I don't think I've found exactly what
I'm looking for yet, because generally.
Speaker 5: Those fans are just out there losing their mind talking crap.
Speaker 6: On the streets of New York. See, they can do
that when they played the Atlanta Hanks. You can't do
that when you're planning to defending NBA champions. You got
to you gotta go after after them. Well, yeah, that's
what I'm saying. You earn that, you earn that level
of hate. Oh yeah, I'd rather be a villain in
the NBA. That's like the coolest thing to me. I'd
rather be booed like that, just the whole crowd, you
tray Yeah, except again, except for.
Speaker 2: Apparently.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, yeah, I just need a Raymond. We need toughness,
We need tough Yeah.
Speaker 2: I like Draymond. They need somebody.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 2: I want a goon. I want to team like Draymond.
Speaker 3: Sometimes there is too much of a fake goon. But
at least he's a goon. I don't know if he
what do you mean by how we how we qualifying
fake goon?
Speaker 2: He put hands on like he's too much.
Speaker 5: Sometimes I think he's just way too much sometimes, But
I think his goon status is pretty valid.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: Sometimes, like you know, there's some floppiness to him, and
there's some like he might engage in yeah, so like
it's okay, but like you know, Charles Oakley wasn't doing that.
But that, But that's more about Anthony Mason.
Speaker 2: That's the that's.
Speaker 8: Stewart Isaiah's the Pistons all time, Like he didn't have
a whole lot of basketball skill, that's all He's Well,
I feel like a lot of the goons are are
kind of like that.
Speaker 5: That's uh, that's your guy's fault, though, Jake, because European
soccer infected the NBA, and unfortunately, as for all the positives,
and I and I and I've liked Lebron in the past.
I never really liked him into the Lakers, but I've
always been a big le Bron guy from for the
most part. That is probably my least favorite part of
his legacy is I feel like he was kind of
at the at the four of like bringing legitimate flopping
as a tactic like soccer, which a legitimate tactic.
Speaker 2: Into the end of the game.
Speaker 3: The other day when he got hit and nobody speaking
like my four year old, he's like, wait, wait are
you talking about?
Speaker 5: When he hit and fell and nobody helped him up.
Nobody helped him. That was a bad side. Bro, This
is your forty year old captain. That shows you maybe
some of the disconnect the team. But I'm talking about
the game before when he falls in the ground and
he's covering up his face.
Speaker 2: Did you see this?
Speaker 5: And then he peaks out from under to see if
anybody's looking legitimately like your four year old dues and
they're trying to they get their older sibling in trouble.
Oh my god, that was so funny to lame.
Speaker 6: Uh. Yeah, Pelicans need toughness, though, I'll take it. We
need somebody out there that's just not gonna take no bs.
That's just that's what I like about. Yeah, we need
somebody that's not gonna take any bs. So, yeah, we
need a tone Cetter one hundred. I feel like every
good team has a tone center. Yeah, lou Dort for okay.
So even though he just lost, Like I mean, look
at the in.
Speaker 2: Golden between between Butler and Butler and Treymont is just
like man intensity central there.
Speaker 5: Although I think they're in trouble against Tea Wolves, Dude,
it's gonna get good. It's gonna be good because the
Tea will. Like the Rockets were young and you could
feel the Warriors age with the experience one out.
Speaker 2: The Wolves right now, Salty are young, but also experience
very complete feeling.
Speaker 5: They have all the pieces, they have the superstar, they
have big second stretch like they they they Yeah.
Speaker 8: You got guys off the bench like nas Yeah, like.
Speaker 5: Your love Nasari great for I know he has it.
It's just cool to watch him out beloved. He's become
by the by the Timberwolves fans. All right, Jordan, so
this seems like the time to do it. I wanted
to get into the Nuggets thunder, but whatever, maybe we
can do that later. Uh, how do we feel about
du Mars just all the decisions that have been made
with the New Orleans Pelicans as of late.
Speaker 6: Okay, so I'm gonna just start off saying I didn't
like the process about it. Of course, I just felt
like you could have.
Speaker 2: It's a good old boy process we do this.
Speaker 6: Yeah, like you could have just seen what's out there,
you know, you could have grabbed some young exec from
like okay, like a winning franchise.
Speaker 2: You could have did that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they didn't want to do that, all right, Dumars yes,
this first six years and the Pistons was amazing championship,
then the last six are terrible. That's why the the
Detroit Pistons were spirally out of control. Was the start
of Dumart like he was the guy that got him there. Darker,
there's no coming back from the Darko Milicic pick Yeah
over Carmelo Anthony. But it gets worse about the contract
he was given out. But besides the fact, I do
think that Joe Dumars is gonna bring accountability to the franchise.
I'm like David Griffin, who was a known just sline
ball Like David Griffin's he's David Griffins, the guy's gonna
sit here and he was a lot of big wordsquacious. Yeah,
he's one of those, right, And I think Dumars, well,
he was working in the league office. He was the
guy signing the fines and whatnot. So I think he
will bring discipline. That's what his team needs. You don't
you have your star player get it suspended from missing
practice and flights and all that. So that's not gonna
happen with Dumars running the show. I'm talking about Zion
got suspended. Yeah, yeah, that's not gonna happen with Dumas.
That's some David Griffin stuff. So I do think Dumars
will bring that. We will just have to see how
the other side of that happens with, you know, the
exec side making moves and whatnot.
Speaker 5: So that were pretty damn good Drafters. But what you
just said was Langdon who's not here. No ye, he's
on the pistons matter, who was eating so like, and
then he brings in Troy Weaver, who was terrible with Detroit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, the the anecdotes on Weaver are like god awful.
Speaker 5: So it's I mean, I just can't sit here and
just be like, oh man, it's it's it's gonna work, man.
Speaker 2: Like I'm not.
Speaker 6: I'm not gonna sit here and just pump your head out.
But I do think he will bring structure and accountability
to the franchise. I'm not gonna sit here and be like, man, man,
Dumars is gonna he's gonna we're gonna get the number
one pick.
Speaker 2: But he might be good luck will he? But will
he play the piano? See?
Speaker 6: And that's the thing, like he's not doing that. You know,
Griff will go come rub your knees and all this, like, bro,

It's off the bench with Hester and TBA.
Speaker 2: What's having y'all? It's time for a little oh TB mailbook.
Speaker 6: I help this special delivery for the bench.
Speaker 2: And look it is marked most urgent. We'll be writing
to you the internet. What the is the internet? What's
going on y'all? Have they go to a mailbag? What's
everybody's favorite comic book character? H Garfield Cyclass from X Men. Okay,
growing up it was green Lantern for me.
Speaker 5: Uh. As they got older, though, well you go ahead,
Popeye really like the old She's talking like newspaper comics.
Speaker 2: I'm strong to definish because I eat sme spinach. Hell, yeah,
I am what I am? I am what I am.
Speaker 5: H As I got older, they were maybe I started
liking like runs of comics more than like your maybe
things outside your like traditional DC or Marvel superheroes like
comics comics. Yes, scalped is Amazing Invincible, which is now famous.
Amazon show was always very good. Walking Dead was very
good back in the day. Preacher is really insane. Uh,
there's a lot of just I find comics to be
some of the most exploratory creative mediums that you can find.
Speaker 2: Has to go to the mail bag.
Speaker 5: I dove deeply into what Sabin and Tuberville are trying
to get the President to sign on the House settlement.
How weird is it for BAM and Auburn and tavap
to solve the impast So I haven't I'll be talking
of this on snaps today, but I gotta be honest.
Speaker 2: I do the research on it.
Speaker 5: But is there So there's the only detail I know, Jacob,
maybe you know more about it from off campus, but
is that there's the potential for an executive order to
be signed to help I think, basically enforce like in IL.
Speaker 2: But but I don't know what.
Speaker 5: I don't know exactly what they're trying to enforce or
how realistic it's it sounds. Now if you're telling me
that an executive order will be signed, well that that
is kind of believable. But like all things with the NCAA,
it remains the enforcement that causes me to question whether
or not you can pull it off.
Speaker 3: H Yeah, there's you know a lot of probably different
branches to this, and and coach Saban certainly is somebody
that a lot of people want it to be the
you know, kind of the czar of college football if
we had on a commissioner. Uh, we haven't talked a
lot about this. If you're looking like for a full
breakdown Nicole Auerback and Chris buden Or on College Force
Today on Channel eighty four, and that is like the
perfect show.
Speaker 4: They will break it all the way down, will be
breaking down weightlifting.
Speaker 5: I'll probably be reading there. I'll probably be that their
work to get ready for snapsidy as to go.
Speaker 2: To b mail back. If you could being back one
discontinued product, what would it be?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 6: Easy Popeyes used to have like this chicken burrito where
like red beans or rice in it.
Speaker 2: Oh god, that's so good. Yeah remember that sounds awesome.
Yeah that makes sense.
Speaker 5: I don't know anybody somebody else go, I have a
I have a game that I would bring back, but
I want to see if I can think of a product.
Speaker 2: Bring back. Uh it's like clear pepsi or something like that.
So I know there's disappointment here.
Speaker 5: I think it's like when when you when when all
of a sudden you I don't know, I'll just go
a video game. There's a video game, Gardner's Middle Earth
that I loved back in the day that now there's
literally no way of playing because it was online multiplayer only,
and you just it's just you can't anymore servers or anything.
Speaker 4: So this is gonna be full fat boy. So Reesis
used to have this Elvis.
Speaker 3: Like branded peanut butter cup, but it was peanut butter
and banana cream. Oh and it was glorious, and I
don't it was like just for a little bit, Like
you can buy them on eBay for like like just
a bag of them ninety bucks, damnam because people love
them so much that people will still sell them.
Speaker 2: Yeah I will.
Speaker 4: Also, it's twenty dollars for one on eBay, Like one
one one.
Speaker 5: Was was Elvis peanut butter banana bacon sandwiches or just
peanut butter banana bacon too.
Speaker 6: Okay, any money, man, I have to spend money on
just stupid stuff. Twenty dollars for one.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah, bring back money, Carlos, that's it needs to bring
back Sevy money, Carlos for sure?
Speaker 2: What about you, t Tay, you got all the first.
Speaker 8: Car I've been thinking, I know I don't really have anything.
Speaker 5: Hashtag OTB mail bag. Would you rather fight a black
bear or wrestle an alligator?
Speaker 2: Easily wrestle? And I'm not even about that life either way.
Speaker 5: Like, we we have so much data that alligators infinitely
more wrestlable than a bear. I guess Russians wrestle with bears,
but aren't they kind of trained not to kill them?
Speaker 8: I guess the question is, cannot be on land for
booth If I'm in the water, I'm taking the bear
because I'm a bear, just because I'm personally more comfortable
in the land than the water.
Speaker 5: No, I can't what you're saying. I get what you're saying.
I understand that. I still think you probably have a
chance to get a better chance against the gator.
Speaker 2: Now if he gets his jaws onto your cook, That's
what I'm saying. I don't know if you can shut
his jaws, you can hold those right.
Speaker 5: That gators have the strongest like bite, right, but they
have awful muscles for opening that.
Speaker 8: It's also a black bear too, right, That changes things.
Speaker 6: For me, black bears are like can like like scare
a black bear, but I know Grizzly or like polar bear.
Speaker 8: You know you're cooked those You ever see one of
those black bears in Gallenberg digging through the trash? Yeah,
look big dogs.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're scary the very Okay, maybe maybe I'm think
I'm giving the black bear too much respect.
Speaker 2: I'm going you're thinking of like a grizzly, not just
gonna chop your face on.
Speaker 3: I mean it's okay, allow black bears up there in Monroe.
Speaker 2: So so you would what would you take? I go
black bear? Wow?
Speaker 6: Okay, so I am wrong then, regardless, I wouldn't want
to hop in no type of fight with.
Speaker 5: Black bearries are big, but like I don't know something
about a gator hashtag O TB mail bag. Is Sidney
Sweeney the heroine of our times? It's not an interesting question.
The only reason I read it. Did y'all see Sweeney's
fit at the metcal last night?
Speaker 8: No about it.

comic books. She is clearly putting her the the the assets,
like you know, her superpower that has sourcelled the world
is so highlighted her outfit last night.
Speaker 2: It was it was fantastic.
Speaker 8: Waits, she has a superpower?

see if his solder isn't. Yeah, we gonna find out,

pretty Jack is the NFL player. I expect them to

bad that shoulder is.

got hurt.

he doesn't get hurt against Georgia, they might be Georgia
wins over wins over L s U and Ole miss
a couple.

ranked the Lagway number one. I mean, ay, it was
Chris and Dorian who graduated from Florida.

my steps Coast Darreon Murray and he has Lagweight.

that you do with a Thera band and couldn't run,
couldn't be like who he normally is in the pocket
