Speaker 1: I'll start Toyota Presents off the bench with Jacob Hester
and Matt Flynn.
Speaker 2: Say Hester and Hester.
Speaker 1: From carrying each other to and Natty to carrying each other.
Speaker 3: On the air, there's.
Speaker 1: Control live from the Mercedes Benz Baton Rouge studio.
Speaker 4: It's off the bench.
Speaker 5: All right, welcome back in our number three of ot
B here on one O four five espn ben Rouge.
Speaker 6: You need to get rid of these chairs. These chairs
are worthless. They always go down and they're just in
the way. We have so much more room for activities
if we just get rid of the chairs. So Hunt Moscona,
you gotta stand up. We gotta get out of get
the chairs out of here.
Speaker 7: We do like to sit every now and then do
it without chairs. No, I was just get one of that.
Speaker 8: Like tea.
Speaker 6: Bob and I stood six months at one period every
day for six months we stood the whole show.
Speaker 8: That's my challenge to you, sir.
Speaker 7: I mean we've stood for the whole show multiple times.
Speaker 8: I need six months from you. I need all the
football season from this.
Speaker 6: Day right here, this time nine o two on August
of twenty eighth, the year of our Lord twenty twenty five.
Speaker 7: I feel like when I stand, I hit the mic more.
Speaker 6: But you, buddy, I hate to tell you hit the
mic all the time regardless.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's okay, need a tougher mic. I'm just gritty.
Speaker 8: I've always said that about you, all right, before.
Speaker 7: We get hit anybody in practice, Yeah, we saw your
personal protector before we get to big dealer, No big deal.
Speaker 6: I do want to give you at least one of
my bold predictions bringing on. And you'll tell me if
this is bald or not, because I feel like it is.
But maybe you'll just Gree's not a great way to start.
I'm just saying I want I wanted to be out there.
I want the rules to be out there.
Speaker 8: It's going to be borderline.
Speaker 6: I think that a team from the sun Belt Conference
will make the Couge Football Playoff.
Speaker 9: That I think, see, I think they get the group
of six spot the sun Belt Conference Appalachian State, Coastal Carolina, Georgia,
Southern Georgia State, James Madison Marshall, Old Dominion, Arkansas State,
Louisiana Lafayette, South Alabama, Southern miss Texas State, Troy, and
Louisiana Monroe. Yeah that's pretty Yeah.
Speaker 2: The Dukes.
Speaker 6: Now, I'll be honest, I think the only reason that
they don't get more consideration is kind of like we
talk about with the Big Twelve.
Speaker 8: Got a lot of good teams beat each other and
beat each other up.
Speaker 6: And now you're looking up and everybody's nine and three
and nobody's eleven and one.
Speaker 4: There's like a lot of parody in the sun Belt
very much.
Speaker 6: So, I mean, think about no talking about think about
the Giant Slayers. They have Appalachian State beating Texas A
and m Coastal Carolina. How many teams they've taken down
in their short history as a program.
Speaker 8: We all know Troy came here and beat l s U.
Speaker 6: James Madison has certainly done it to multiple teams before
as well.
Speaker 8: I'm just saying, I.
Speaker 7: Like it, let's go, that's you said bold, you favor Like,
how uh.
Speaker 8: They get bolderick know jeez Taylor, Well.
Speaker 10: No, he didn't nothing like be like. But I'm just saying, like,
who's your favorite?
Speaker 8: When the sun.
Speaker 11: Belt the sun Belt, Texas State, that's.
Speaker 6: Just the Texas coming out in you, I'll say, jmu,
I say jmu.
Speaker 7: So they still actually have divisions. It doesn't matter though,
in the belt. So just one of your favorite doesn't matter,
you know what.
Speaker 12: Yeh.
Speaker 8: But if you're gonna if you look, if you're gonna
call me out, uh, I go.
Speaker 6: Jmu wins the East and I think Louisiana Lafayette wins
the West and jmu wins the conference.
Speaker 8: How about that? It ain't no guess that's what's going
to be. We should we should get that little clip
play it. We make predictions.
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, okay, I'm typing. So it was like a.
Speaker 8: Pet. Anybody want to get any more bull predictions out
before we get to a big deal. I got many
of them. I got lots more.
Speaker 4: US one more, one more.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what you said?
Speaker 7: Kansas City Chiefs don't make the playoffs.
Speaker 10: Wa It kind of goes with mine. I picked them
to not win their division a couple weeks ago.
Speaker 7: Don't make the playoffs. I don't really have to foot
the stand on this. Their number one receiver is out
because he did illegal things.
Speaker 4: Tris Kelsey's washed.
Speaker 7: Travis Kelsey's getting gage.
Speaker 6: He's too focused about did illegal things.
Speaker 4: Like some very serious illegal things.
Speaker 8: Yeah. I don't even know what he did either, She ri, Yeah.
Speaker 11: He was in that accident where that killing a girl
and her dog?
Speaker 4: Isn't it the biggest one?
Speaker 10: No?
Speaker 2: That was rugs.
Speaker 11: Okay, true, but still Rashi Rice.
Speaker 2: Was in a Rug's gotten a little bit of trouble too.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but he's out for seven games.
Speaker 8: It's illegal.
Speaker 4: That's actually I don't I don't know where is it.
Speaker 10: Maybe they they don't make the playoffs, don't make the playoffs.
Speaker 4: Older than mine. I'm just not high on the Chiefs
this season. I wasn't rare.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, for sure, I agree. Yeah, Okay, their division
is down.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's bold.
Speaker 10: Hell man, we can do a big deal or no
big deal. Whenever I got a bold prediction that kind
of goes directly in line with yours. The Commanders have
missed the playoffs in twenty twenty five. I understand they
went on their run. I get that they went on
their run. They made it to the NFC Championship. I'm
going to give you a list of quarterbacks in the
NFC that the Washington Commanders face last year. They're not
that luck this year. Okay, So they faced Baker and
Jalen Hurts, but they went zero to two against them. Okay,
you take them out. Daniel Jones twice, Kyler Murray, Bryce Young,
Caleb Williams, Cooper Rush, Jay Cane or Kenny Pickett, Michael
pennock' Trey Lance.
Speaker 2: Those are the NFC quarterbacks that they played last year.
Speaker 6: You said a lot of quarterbacks like Caleb Williams and
Michael PENNIGX that we don't know, like that's not like
a dig like.
Speaker 2: Last year.
Speaker 10: They're probably better this year too. You played Michael Pennocks
at one of his first NFL starts. And then if
you want to go look at the AFC quarterbacks they played.
Lamar lost that game. You beat Deshaun Watson, who gives
a crap about that, and you did beat Joe Burrow.
So if you want to look at the four quarterbacks
they played last year that were established Burrow, Baker, Hurts,
Lamar Jackson, you went one and three against those four teams,
and then you beat up on the guys like you
got lucky. You didn't play Dak twice, you played Cooper
Rush this second time. You didn't play Jalen Hurts twice,
you played Kenny Pickett, You played against Jake Hayner. He
got the start that was his only start of the year.
Last year for the Saints, like they had some tough,
some lucky breaks. I'm not saying they're not a good team,
but they have to play a lot taller schedule this year,
a lot taller schedule this year.
Speaker 7: I'm I'm listening to your breakdown here and I'm starting
to think it might not be that bold of a prediction.
Speaker 8: It's a big prediction like this year.
Speaker 10: Jordan Love, Justin Herbert, Patrick Mahomes, Jared Goff, Bo Nicks.
Speaker 6: You got, they got, they got a guy named j
D five to that, but they they got scary Terry Back.
Speaker 13: And he's I mean, there's gonna be def They're gonna
people are gonna be fighting over NFC playoff spots because
of the NFC North, Right, the.
Speaker 7: North, it's like the West and the af C. Yeah,
I mean the North is probably gonna get three teams
in so those those playoff spots if you're not and
of course, I mean the Eagles are gonna win that division,
not the Commanders, So they're gonna be fighting for a
wild card spot and it's gonna be few and far between.
So if they drop some of those close games, but
they do have that, it's a bad man JD five.
Speaker 8: He is uh.
Speaker 6: He's what we like to call an eraser when you
have problems eracism.
Speaker 14: They made a movie about that, did they. It's called
the Eraser? Who is the eraser? It feels like Arnold.
I don't even well now it would be, but I
had to be Arnold back then. What was it, Ben Affleck,
I don't know you told me about. It's like a
sniper in one of those movies.
Speaker 8: It's Arnold. It is Arnold, h I do.
Speaker 6: I'd like they made some defensive moves for the commanders,
so they did jackhed Trey Amos like him.
Speaker 8: You got Von Millers actually with the commanders.
Speaker 4: I hope their defense is good. That's who I have fanta.
Speaker 7: I would say, like a scale of boldness. The chiefs
not making it's probably like an eight. Commander's not making
it probably uh.
Speaker 2: Six or seven?
Speaker 8: Maybe five? Yeah, five? Maybe still bold?
Speaker 6: Anybody else want to throw on out there. I'm enjoying this.
Speaker 8: This is a big gil. I got a list, Go ahead,
I got a whole list. Lander. Do you have any more? Okay,
I've got one, So you go ahead and I'll go
after Ebo. This is bold. You ready? That's the whole segment.
Speaker 7: Stetson Bennett will be at least for one game. We'll
start at quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys this year.
Speaker 6: Stetson Bennett yep, who plays for the Rams, yep will
start a game for the Dallas Cowboys this year.
Speaker 2: Elaborate it is on the team.
Speaker 7: May yeah, here, there's more than three quarterbacks there. The
Cowboys are struggling at the backup quarterback position, They're struggling
at the starting the starting position. They're probably going to
be a disappointment this year. A lot of drama with
the Cowboys. Jerry needs to make a splash. Why not
bring in a guy that for the Cowboys whose first
name is a brand of cowboy hat.
Speaker 8: So does it fit?
Speaker 7: It fits, the name fits, I think the way he plays,
he's pretty scrappy. He's led all the passing categories in
preseason and has proven to be a pretty good little player.
And if you're looking to bring in somebody and solidify
a a backup quarterback position and have just recently come
into all these new draft picks for some reason, that
might happen. Trade Mike Parsons, maybe trade something for a
really competent backup quarterback, and if the season doesn't go
well for the Cowboys, I would say Stetsan Bennett might
be one of the best quarterbacks out there in a
team that has multiple quarterbacks, that would be the first
person to trade for right now, if you're looking for
some sort of backup.
Speaker 10: I like it, except the trade and Michael part I
like it, yep. I mean, Joe Milton's your backup right now.
I don't look. People canna have whatever opinion of Joe
Milton minus always remained the same. I don't think Joe
Milton's a good quarterback. I mean, and if that goes down,
which he's gone down a lot the past couple of years,
who are you going to bring in Stetson?
Speaker 15: Like?
Speaker 8: I get it, so.
Speaker 7: You're trying, you're starting trying to think if, like, if
that's even bold anymore?
Speaker 10: It would be bold. The trade for him would be bold.
Him starting a game once he gets here not not
be bold.
Speaker 8: It just fits.
Speaker 7: His name fits with the Cowboys, and I think I
think Jerry kind of likes that type of deal man.
You're gonna sell tickets, why not have a guy named
Stetson starting as a quarterback for the Cowboys.
Speaker 8: That's because the cowboy hats people.
Speaker 4: It's kind of fake.
Speaker 8: It is fake. Thank you.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean you'd be back over. The Texans worked too, Yeah,
they're pretty So did I convince y'all? Did I convince anybody?
Speaker 15: No?
Speaker 8: It's bold because he's literally like he's not on the team.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think.
Speaker 8: Literally has he gets traded to the team and then.
Speaker 7: A team that currently has three quarterbacks on the active roster.
Not unheard of that he they would trade somebody with you?
Speaker 6: Okay, all right, hand would you like to go after
that bold prediction?
Speaker 11: I have one, but this one is bold, and I
don't know if it's more bold than.
Speaker 4: That one, but it's pretty bold.
Speaker 11: So I think my bold prediction is that when you
were starts at least one game for the Miami Dolphins
this season and maybe becomes QB two instead of QB three,
and at that time to a tag of aloa hurt
because duh always hurt, and he just comes in and
like takes over Queen you Weres takes over to a
tag of.
Speaker 4: Zach Wilson.
Speaker 8: I actually kind of like that one. I think Quinn.
I'm I'm a big fan of Quinn.
Speaker 4: I was saying this during the draft. To me, the
more egregious thing.
Speaker 11: Everybody was complaining about Shador Sanders being drafted.
Speaker 4: What fifth rounds? Yeah, fifth round.
Speaker 11: To me, it was more egregious that Quinn you Weres
fell all the way to the seventh.
Speaker 2: Why do you hate?
Speaker 8: Sorry, Drake, Yeah, that's not that's not bad.
Speaker 4: You're saying something.
Speaker 6: No, No, I was agreeing with you. Yeah, like I
actually think that's I mean, were.
Speaker 8: Very easily. I think that.
Speaker 6: No, it's bold, but I'm saying, like, in my mind,
what I think of Quinn you we was like, if
he gets a chance, hey, actually.
Speaker 2: He could go a yeah, and then I mean it
gets hurt all the time.
Speaker 8: So like that.
Speaker 7: The Dolphins, that whole staff being changed this year because
they look so good versus bad teams and looks so
bad versus good teams, Like they'll throw for a billion
yards one game, then throw for seven the next week.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Two obviously has a history of injury, but look, Jay
Cayneer started for the Saints last year as a third guy,
So I mean that's not unheard of for that to happen.
Speaker 8: Yeah, all right, good, I'll give you one more if
we take a break it's like someone from the other
team starting for him.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's something before we get to munchies and chef
Michael Johnson my mind. I mean, y'alls are like, I mean,
somebody not even on a team right now. It's pretty bold.
The New England Patriots make the playoffs in the AFC.
Speaker 8: Like, that's not bold. They're going to be really good
this year, the Patriots.
Speaker 6: You think the Patriots, who had a top five pick
them making the postseason is not bold.
Speaker 7: I think they're actually going to be good this year.
I actually was thinking about putting them in the same
Nancy Championship.
Speaker 8: Game in the same division as the Bills. Were you
really thinking about it all? Right? Bold predictions? Well, I
think it's bold, Taylor, do you think it's bold enough
to be in there?
Speaker 2: I think it's a bold because of their division.
Speaker 10: It's like everybody thinks the Bills are gonna win it
if Miami stays healthy. They're probably more talented top to
bottom than the Patriots, like staring Quinn yours. Yeah, if
they're healthy, he said, if they're healthy, the.
Speaker 8: Lauderie are deciding factor bold enough.
Speaker 4: And it's bold. Thank you Bills.
Speaker 7: Well, really, I think they're thingse are over under set
at eight and a half or nine wins?
Speaker 6: No way, no way.
Speaker 7: I was looking at looking that up yesterday because I
was looking for bold predictions in the NFL, and I
think one site had them at like technically like eight
point seven.
Speaker 8: Wins, eight point seven ee getting in the postseason? Okay, Bud,
But if they hit the over nine to ten, what.
Speaker 6: Do you take the easy ro Jake, I said, a
Sunbelt team is going to make the playoff. Get out
of here, all right, we'll take a break, Chef Michael
Johnson when we come back to answer your munchies questions on.

Speaker 8: All right, Welcome back in well OTB.
Speaker 6: On Thursday, It's time for your favorite segment of the week,
Little Mounchies with Chef Michael Johnson.
Speaker 1: Get ready to tantalyze your taste buds and leave this
segment hungry. This is Munchies with executive chef Michael Johnson.
Speaker 8: All right, chef, what's going on? Brother? How are we doing?
Speaker 12: I'm good man, how are you doing?
Speaker 8: Fantastic? Always a pleasure to catch up with you.
Speaker 6: Here is you're getting the Tigers ready to travel to Clemson,
South Carolina. So before we get started, what's the vibe
like inside of the dining hall there? Obviously, I mean,
you know, you get a chance to see what the
vibes are like, see if the fellows are upbeat.
Speaker 8: What's kind of the move right now?
Speaker 12: And I've said this a couple of times and it's
reminiscent of twenty nineteen to me. Guy, the guys instead
of sitting in groups of you know, this position and
that's that position, you know, I think they're bonding across
position lines and and you know, I don't know. We're
busier ever than ever right now, Like we're we're serving
more meals than we ever have over the past six
seven seasons. And it's indicative of buy into what we're
doing here at the nutrition center. But I think it's
also indicative of the athlete buying in, you know, to
what LSU is trying to accomplish, you know, and I
think the vibe is really good. I always go into
the season with with positive thoughts and I just this
it feels good. But brother, I don't want to jinx anything,
but you know, like I feel, I feel pretty positive
about it, and I'm excited to see these guys play
on Saturday. I think there is going to be a
lot of people surprised by who our team is.
Speaker 7: Jeff, how do you handle road games with the team?
I'm sure you have some sort of input and charge
of something with as their diet and what they eat
for you know, either before getting on the plane or
on the plane afterwards. What is that whole situation like
with your you're playing for a road game.
Speaker 12: Yeah, So I actually have an executive Sioux chef, and
Ryan Andre. He's he's been he's a local chef here
in Baton Rouge. He was actually one of my students
when I taught culinary school, and he's he's a well
known chef here in Baton Rouge regional area. You know,
he's been an executive chef himself, and so he's a
trusted member of my team. And and I don't travel
with the team anymore. He actually travels with the team
now and and he is our liaison between the football
team and the catering team at the at the Way
Team hotel to make sure that they understand how our
team eats, the quality of food that we expect, temperatures
are being met, safety and sanitation kind of stuff, and
it has to happen in a non threatening manner. You
can't just as a chef walk into somebody else's kitchen
and tell them what to do, right like, that is
never going to go well. So it is a it's
a poll for the push, if you will. And we
do feed them on the airplanes. I think they get
fed like every two hours, you know, I feel like
maybe more and more often than that, because it's not
just what you're eating, it's when you're eating. And they're
like the dieticians take care of catering for the airplane.
They get you know, food on the chartered plane. When
they land, they come, they go to dinner, and there's
this sequence of events that the only thing that changes
is the game time, right, and that kind of changes
the meal plan on Saturday. But other than that, it's
a sequence of events that is unchanging. Get on the plane,
get fed, get off the plane cut you know, like unpacked,
go to meating, you know, like it's it's very methodical
and the food is mixed in there as part of
the process, you know, and so it really is matterful
when they eat, you know, and how much calories they
put in the meal has not changed too terribly much
over the past twenty five years. We did change alter
some cuts of meat stuff like that, and and increase
quality and specific requests of what we want to see
from the on the road cats, and that varies greatly.
You know, if you go to Atlanta, you're getting a
professional catering team and a professional hotel that does it
every day of the week religiously, like throughout the year.
And then you go to some of the smaller towns
in the SEC and and you know it's only they
only catered that volume, you know, like during football season,
and you get a very different experience out of it.
Speaker 7: Jeff, where were you in two thousand and seven, because
we used to get on the plane and there was
like a Chick fil A sandwich on everybody's seat that
had been there for probably five and a half six hours. Yeah,
just kind of marinate and in the steam in that
foil bag. But yeah, we kind of needed you. But
I do have a question you kind of talked about
that pregame meal hasn't changed in the last twenty five
years because it didn't matter like which team I was
on college pros. It was always, you know, there was
some chicken breast, there was some file a steak, there
was salmon, There was these different vegetables. When we were
in college, they used to tell us they had they
had the coaches stay that'd be like medium rare, and
then they had the player steak that was like well done.
Because the philosophy that they said there, you know, you
can't have the medium rare steaks because uncooked steak doesn't
get digested as fast you need to be digested.
Speaker 8: Is there any truth to that?
Speaker 15: Well?
Speaker 12: One, and a lesser cook steak has more nutrient in
it than does a well cooked steak, Like you're getting
more nutrient value out of it. Two, it really depends
on how much you macrate or chew the meat, right,
Like if you're just if you're just on you know,
bites of meat in your mouth and swallowing without chewing, well,
it doesn't have the same value. You know, like when
you start chewing, it engages the enzymes in your mouth
and saliva and that helps break down the muscle tissues
or the or even the fiber that you're eating through
fruits and vegetables, and that helps aid in digest and
full digestion. And so you know the thing about it
is is you need to chew well. And you know
we we have since then altered that too. We go medium, rare, medium, medium, well.
We have a couple of coaches that like well done,
but we have purposely forced those temperatures down because they
get more nutrient value out of something that's lesser cooked.
You know, like when a when a steak is at
raw that it has its optimum amount of nutrient right then,
and when you start cooking it and it starts bleaching
liquid out, which is myoglobin, it it also leaches out
nutrients with it. So you know, the sooner you eat
it and the less and the lesser done it is
it's going to offer you and the more you too,
the better nutrient value you're going to get out of it.
Myoglobin myoglobin, Yeah, so myoglobin is what makes red meat red.
Hemoglobin is what makes red blood red, and and myoglobin
a lot of people perceive the red reddish colored liquid
it comes out of steak as blood, but it's it's
actually water that has been saturated in the muscle tissue
that has myoglobin in it, which turns it red. It's
not blood at all, but it and in certain muscle
groups there's more red tissue, like dark meat and dark
meat chicken. If there's the more motion there is, the
more myoglobin there is, the lesser myoglobe, the lesser the
muscle is used, the lesser myoglobin is present. That's quite complicated,
but that's how that works.
Speaker 8: I definitely knew that entire breakdown. I was just.
Speaker 7: My mind is blown right now, said I always thought it, like, yeah,
that's that's the blood.
Speaker 12: Nope, yeah, I mean it's important for us. It's important
for us to explain that because a lot of people
fear away from blood, and it's important that they understand
it's not blood, that's nutrient, and cooking it out is
cooking out the nutrent. So we have to have those
conversations educatively to express, you know, two different walks of life,
you know, athletes from different walks of life, that this
is actually healthy for you. And honestly, I had to
teach some of my chefs that from you know, who
had it in their minds, you know, from long standing
beliefs that you know that that wasn't healthy for you
and you shouldn't eat rare me it shouldn't eat. And
to be honest with you, one of the ways that
I taught one of my chefs is I made a
bet with her. Listen, if you'll eat a medium steak,
I'll eat that steak braw. And she was freaking out.
She's like, there's no way you're gonna eat that steak raw.
And I did. I just sprinkles some salt on it,
prinkles sub salt on it, and ate it down and
came back to work the next day and she's like,
I can't believe you're not thick. So he tried to
eat the medium steak the next day and she was like,
oh my god, that he's delicious, you know. And I
was like, this is where we build trust, you know,
this is this is how you gain trust. I'm willing
to put, you know, extend myself out there if you
will extend yourself to me. And so we do a
lot of that, you know, trying to influence people to
eat healthier through trust.
Speaker 6: Chef, we got a bunch of people in the chat
that want to ask the same question I want to ask.
Speaker 8: You got to call out those coaches who get their
steaks well done. We've gotta have a conversation with them.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I'm not gonna call them out on the radio, because, uh,
I have a tremendous amount of admiration for the two
that do and and you know, I'll cook at them
and tease them when they do. But at the end
of the day, I'm gonna do what they ask because
they do.
Speaker 8: Chef, they do a job.
Speaker 6: Okay, Chef, I'm just gonna ask one coach and you
tell me yes or no. It better not better not
be my boy, Blake Baker. No, okay, Okay. I was
about to say, like I thought I knew Blake and
if he got a steak well done, I was gonna
call him like during this segment.
Speaker 8: Okay, all right, all right, all right, all right, all.
Speaker 7: Right, all right, Chef, I got a hashtag munchies here.
We've got tailgating coming up. What's your open tailgate plate?
Speaker 12: Who it's gotta be wings? You know, like I'm so simple,
you know what I mean like I do like I just,
I'm just. I love wings man, I like him cold,
I like them hot, I like them sauce, I like
them dry. Like I'm naked, I like I'm bread. And
I never met a wing I didn't like.
Speaker 8: You know what I mean, it's hard. I love that
you said naked.
Speaker 12: Let's go naked, naked man. Yeah. Uh, you know there's
things that I don't like, Like I don't like Beanie whenies.
Speaker 8: You know, I mean, nobody's perfect chef. Yeah, he knows.
I'm a red neck. Sorry. Oh good, Oh that that's
actually really good. Uh, chef, if.
Speaker 6: You know, you canna be so you're not traveling, so
you're gonna be sitting down and watching the game, like
you know, like most of the people listening to us
right now, are you like one of those people that's
too nervous to eat? Well, you have like you know,
a plate of food where you have food just like
in the kitchen, so you can kind of graze a
little bit.
Speaker 8: Like how do you take in a road game?
Speaker 12: Yeah, take him in the same way as I do
home games. To be honest with you, man, you have
to have a huge amount of tolerance for me as
a human being to be in the same room as me,
because I'm loud, I'm agnoxious, I'm yelling, I'm screaming, you know,
like I'm emotional. And here's the thing, you know, like
I people are like, why don't you go? I probably
go to one home game a year because you know,
like it's really difficult for me to sit in the
stands and listen to how our fans be critical of
our boys. And I'm so emotionally invested in these guys,
you know what seems like a small notion to them,
and and you know it's natural for the fan to
fan to criticize. I'm super sensitive about that, Like, you
don't know anything about that guy, so I have to
I find that removing myself and being emotional at the household,
you know, without anybody being around for me to you know,
make a fool of myself. Yeah so yeah, yeah, that man.
Speaker 8: Has a wonderful palette.
Speaker 12: Incredibly right, he exactly. I have been in a couple
of awkward positions, situations where I had a somebody immediately
and be like, no, you got that all wrong, and
you know it was it was uh, you know, I
wasn't drinking or anything of that nature. But I definitely
took a sour face to it and turned to the guy.
It's like, you don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 8: I agree, it is hard to do.
Speaker 7: I've done it too, been in the crowd and you
hear people like giving their breakdown of what happened, like
on a defensive play, and I'm like, oh, that.
Speaker 8: Coverage out there, that was That was cover too. It's like,
my wife's just like he touched me. Just look at
the game, watch the field.
Speaker 12: You know. It was funny about that game. That particular game,
I was sitting in my sister in law seats and
they're like two rows back fifty yard line, and I
corrected the guy and was kind of assertive with him,
and he was polite. I was being polite, you know.
We kind of shook hands and went about our business
watching the game. And at halftime, Clyde edwards a lairwalk by.
He saw me standing there and he came up into
the stands and gave me a hug and whatnot. And
the guy at me was like, yeah, yeah, I'm just
somebody who knows.
Speaker 6: So that's funny. Shout out to Clyde. By the way,
it's getting a chance to go back to home away
from home. I know obviously the situation didn't work out,
but how about our guy. I guess to go back
to Kansas City. Like, I'm not hating Saints fans, but uh,
Kansas City. He's got a little bit better foundation than
the Saints. Right now, a little bit.
Speaker 12: I bite my tongue because I'm a Saints fan, you know,
but I'm a Chief fan, diehard, Chief fan by blood
and and and and you know, nature and nurture. I'm
a Chief fan. So I love seeing him and in
red and gold Man. It's it tickles me. And you know,
I always cheer for our boys no matter what uniform
they put on. It's just who I am. And I
have I struggle cheering for some of them because they work.
They play for teams that I just absolutely love.
Speaker 8: Yeah. Yeah, if you play for the Raiders, Devin, why
Jamal Adams? I love you all, y'all my boys, but
right now you put the Raiders right? Yeah?
Speaker 6: Yeah, it is what it is, Chef, You're the man.

Speaker 8: I mean, you had like this much and you're acting
like you did like the whole thing. Hey, where's that
turnover chain? It's waiting until the sun belt makes it
playoffs both that was.
Speaker 2: That was That was a fun bold prediction.
Speaker 8: Do you like that? That's a fun one. Uh, what's
your all? Right?
Speaker 7: So we're not gonna wax podal again. We're just gonna
go down the list.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, okay.
Speaker 7: These are my last This is my last list. Okay,
all right, here we are Matthew Golden wins Offensive Rookie
of the Year, a head coach for college or the pros.
It's got to be a fairly big time program. If
it's in college will be suspended or investigated this season
for potentially a potential involvement with suspicious gambling activity. Okay
around their games, all right, there will be an investigation college,
college or pros or prose. But it's got to be
It can't be like a D three school you never
heard of. It's gotta be like a do you want school?
So what you're saying is Kalen to.
Speaker 8: Boor Nope, I didn't say that. That's bold though.
Speaker 7: Okay, I have this on here. I've already talked about
this one. I think Jordan Love is gonna win the
NFL MVP. John Gruden will be a coach of an
SECOA wait, who's gonna win MVP?
Speaker 4: Sorry, I'm ready, Jordan.
Speaker 7: If you already had that one, Oh yeah, I said
that one last week. John Gruden will be a coach
of an SEC football team before the second round of
the football playoffs, kickoff.
Speaker 8: Okay, second round, Can I make the bold prediction that's
going to be Kentucky. That's fine because I was going
to say Arkansas.
Speaker 7: Because my other bold prediction I didn't put it in
there because I put that one was that Sam Potts
one Sam Pittman would be fired before Halloween.
Speaker 10: One of mine was going to be Mark Steeps fired
before the season's over, although that's not the bold interesting.
Speaker 8: I love you Mark Stoops. You're my guy. Win some games.
Let us see my last one.
Speaker 7: Receiver, Xavier Legette for the Carolina Panthers, yep accent is
going to end the season with over one thousand yards receiving.
I think he had four hundred and fifty seven last year.
Speaker 8: Yeah, they traded Adam back to the Vikings. They did.
Speaker 7: I think that so Bryce young. I think he's gonna
have like a resurgence this year. I think he's gonna
have a good season. I think they're going to be
a lot like the Dolphins. They're going to be really
good and explosive and score a lot of points against
bad teams and bad defenses, but probably not great against
good teams. And they got a really young, really young
receiving corps and so you know he's explosive, runs a
four to three. I think he averaged his senior year
of college at South on average almost eighteen yards per reception,
which is pretty elite at that at that average. So
I think he's got a chance explosive. I think he's
gonna have that second year. He's gonna get over a
thousand yards.
Speaker 8: I actually don't hate that.
Speaker 2: I mean Treorro McMillan will free him up a little bit.
Speaker 7: And it might I don't know, it might not be bold.
Maybe that's not, but it's it's over double what his
receptions were last year.
Speaker 10: The uh the coach gains suspended is the fun one, ye,
you know that's fun. I think your boldest might be Golden,
not because he's not good. I think he's I thought.
Speaker 8: You not just that.
Speaker 2: And you know this better than anybody.
Speaker 10: Packers have always had like five or six guys that
are really solid, Like they don't have a fifteen hundred
yard DeVante Adams anymore. They got five or six guys
that are all gonna get like sixty seven hundred yards.
Speaker 2: That's like my only thing with Golden.
Speaker 7: I do follow a lot of the packers stuff on
my on my socials. So apparently Golden was like popping
off bad.
Speaker 8: I mean, Travon Henderson is gonna win that. But it's
not bad. He's gonna win. Actually, I actually agree with that. Well,
that's why it's bold. Yeah, I know it's not bad though.
Speaker 11: My BOL prediction to go with John Gruden becoming a
coach of SEC football. I think it's gonna be Auburn
and I think Hugh Freeze gets fired this season.
Speaker 8: All right, okay, yeah, you gotta do something. Come on,
you do something, my guy. This is Auburn. You can't
be like mediocre.
Speaker 2: The good news is just three play callers. One of
them got to be good.
Speaker 7: Right, So we ever decide who's the fourth down play caller?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 6: I get the first down, a Landra gets second down,
and you get third down, and then you get fourth.
Speaker 2: That's the one that matters.
Speaker 4: The fourth is the one that matters.
Speaker 10: Plus I don't have to do it as often as
you guys, so maybe my success rate will be a
little bit better.
Speaker 2: I'll take that, or it could be worse.
Speaker 4: Kendre Kendre Miller leads the Saints in rushing yards.
Speaker 8: All right, I like that one.
Speaker 4: Henre Miller Likedre.
Speaker 6: I'm glad that he is getting back on track because
it was making me mad that he was. It felt
like not making the most of his opportunity. And he's
incredibly talented. Now how much of Dennis Allen had to
do with that obviously, Like it feels like he's on
much better footing with this coaching staff.
Speaker 4: I think he had beef with dinner.
Speaker 8: I think he definitely did.
Speaker 6: And so good on Kendre Miller because I had questions
and he answered a lot of those in the preseason.
Shout out to Kendre Miller, King kendredet.
Speaker 4: Anymore, Jerry Jones, We'll pass away this season.
Speaker 8: Okay.
Speaker 6: On that note, Wow, we're having Damo rolled down the
hill and now Alandra's trying to put Jerry in the grave.
Speaker 8: Wow, Taylor.

Speaker 7: He would what we're talking. This is what we're fighting
for right here at the end of the table.
Speaker 10: McCarthy would have got caught before Shottenhammer and I like
Mike shotten hammers too buttoned up.
Speaker 2: That's why Jerry Herd.
Speaker 7: It's gonna be fun. Somebody's in the world of gambling
just going crazy. More prevalent in our society. Somebody is
gonna get investigated right, wrong and different. Guilty not guilty,
doesn't matter. Investigation puts that chain around my neck. But
do they have to get suspended said suspended or investigating?
I would assume if there's an investigation, they're not.
Speaker 8: There's there's not coaching that week.
Speaker 2: Unless they're with Cleveland.
Speaker 7: Like, if y'all think it's some good, we can always
