Speaker 1: I'll start to you to presents. Off the bench with
jacob Hester and T.
Speaker 2: Bob Abert.
Speaker 1: Off the bench with jacob Hester and C. Bob Abert.
Speaker 3: I got to come off the bitch.
Speaker 1: Now here's jacob Hester and T. Bob Abert.
Speaker 4: Our number three NFL Week eighty.
Speaker 3: Or nineteen eighteen, nineteen Week eight.
Speaker 4: Week eighteen, baby, that classic final week of the NFL season.
Speaker 3: Here we are, Taylor.
Speaker 4: What are your top not a tt A NFL story
the d day day, but what are your top storylines, elements,
narratives that Titan is gonna be watching for on this intervil.
Sunday or Saturday.
Speaker 3: They're playing. They playing every day for.
Speaker 5: They have two Saturday games.
Speaker 6: Not everything else this week, but heading into the playoffs.
We took about a little bit yesterday. I think the
Rams are getting healthy at the right time. I think
that's a that's a team that not a lot of
people are gonna want to play. I'm interested to see
how the NFC South shakes out, because look, the Saints
La Lee.
Speaker 3: The only in LA. It don't be better because you
are at home.
Speaker 5: No, I'm interesting to see the NFC South.
Speaker 6: I mean, the Saints certainly have the opportunity to play
spoiler if they can knock off the Bucks. And if
that happens, how does rookie Michael Pennock Junior do in
the playoffs? I mean, that's certainly something to to.
Speaker 5: Watch as well. Can the Bengals sneak in?
Speaker 6: They need a loss from the Broncos and the Dolphins
as well as a win themselves. That's another team that
nobody would want to play in the playoffs as well.
Speaker 5: Sure there's a lot to watch.
Speaker 4: Uh. I wonder, I wonder what the majority of Saint
Sands would actually won here.
Speaker 6: I would imagine Saint Sans hate feultl more than Yeah, that's.
Speaker 4: What I'm saying. I think, don't mind losing here, letting
the Bucks win the division and ruining the Falcons good time,
and letting them know that, oh, y'all had a massive
division lead, should have won and yet not only did
you choke it away, but we got their Carr well good,
you got kirkoh and they both are giant contracts and
they both suck, and then you.
Speaker 6: You finally replace cousins, but you still don't make the playoffs.
Speaker 4: Like I'm gonna say, the problem would be for Saint chans.
If you beat Tampa and then Atlanta makes it, and
then Pennis does something good in the playoffs, then everything changes. Yeah,
and all of a sudden, despite all the bad Atlanta's
got their young quarterback, you still got car and you
feel like crap. Yeah, So yeah, maybe the play is
to just go ahead and lose to Baker and co.
Speaker 6: Yeah, because like, if Baker Mayfield and Mike Evans beat
you and they do well in the playoffs, does that
really change.
Speaker 5: Anything they did that last year?
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly exactly. The as far as the Saints game goes, Yeah,
I don't I don't have I don't have much for it.
The last two weeks have really stamped out any remaining
shred of actual pregame interest that you maybe had in
this team beyond kind of mechanically going through the motions. Again, unfortunately,
I mean, I guess it was fun seeing Climaker plays,
like you said, but like, unfortunately, the Saints are in
such a bad spot roster wise that it's hard even
to watch a game and look to the future and
be like, oh, these are great elements that we can
rely on going forward, because again, ideally, none of.
Speaker 3: These receivers are receivers next year, right, No, if they are,
it's a problem.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean, and and that kind of extends to
almost every single position group. Uh So, I wish I
could give you more on the Saint going into this Sunday,
But I'm kind of at the point where, mercifully, maybe
it's just time to let it end, you know, let
this whole season end.
Speaker 7: Oh but yeah, it's it's been time. Yeah, it's let
go and let God time. Yeah yeah, yeah, just to
see what happens in August when we reconvene.
Speaker 3: In the draft.
Speaker 7: But if it stays the same, I don't really have
a lot of faith in that. I'll be honest with you.
Speaker 4: Well, if only they would keep the good players that
they draft, you know, like in fact Bond Trey Hendrickson.
Uh no, I I I I agree, though I don't.
I don't have a lot of faith either in It's
just it's I mean, what a moment for Mickey Loomis.
We use all of our Roman analogies, the third Trium
for it. He was always kind of the crassest analog
and well it looks like he too went in to
party and got his head chopped off. I just he
has to. Like, it's wild that he could be a
GM that brought a Super Bowl to New Orleans and
have his reputation as down and sullied as it is
right now. No one needs to turn around this franchise
more than Mickey Loomis. Otherwise somebody who should be celebrated
and remembered as a saint, Tiro will go down as
a villain.
Speaker 7: I mean, what's the old quote of that if you
stay long enough, you know, yeah, true kind of what
it feels.
Speaker 4: Like, familiarity breeds contempt what.
Speaker 3: It kind of feels like right now.
Speaker 7: And there's no GM that has the same set of
circumstances that Mickey Loomis has. Let's be honest, Like, there's
no GM that feels as safe as Mickey Loomis. Like
we talk about it, and there's some truth to it.
Like he's, you know, basically the owner because he kind
of runs the team. He makes all the decisions coaches
and draft and free agency, and you know, doing all
of that with this sense of being untouchable. That's not
a good that's not a good combination. Now, I look,
I think one of the best things about the NFL,
at least for me, personally was you knew every single
day when your feet hit the ground, you had to
go do something to save your job. Every day, Monday
off day on Tuesday, you better be doing something Wednesday,
it didn't matter, wasn't just game days. Every day you
had to be doing something to protect your job. And
when you don't have that, when you don't have that
sense of urgency, it turns into what the New Orleans
Saints are turned into right now. So like that would
be my worry unless he gets some heat, some pressure,
which again we hadn't heard any of that. He's just
going to make another coaching decision. He's going to draft
another group of players and they're going to continue on
with the same old, same old. That's not a good
place to be, and you got to have a little
bit of pressure on you. You have to have a little
bit of hey man, we've been really good here hasn't
gone our way the last couple of years. I need
to look in the mirror. I need to do something different. Instead,
we get him with the bub Malicious with the Big
League two.
Speaker 4: Telling us that Dennis Allen's gonna be Tom.
Speaker 7: Lantry and him coming out there and being very very
arrogant about it as well.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean until I completely agree with you. That's
where he doesn't have the natural market forces and that
your job should be threatened, and so you have to
be very honest about what do we need to change.
None of those are in play. So if you want
to double down on things that have not been successful
in the past because you just think they are right,
he actually has the leeway to double down on it.
Wh's your point, Jake is just incredibly rare, actually pretty
much non existent.
Speaker 7: No, literally nobody else has that. Jonathan, Thank you. You
either die a hero or you live long enough.
Speaker 3: Yeah, to have yourself become the villain.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the dark Knight. I mean, that's sad, so true.
That is really actually what's gone on with Mickey Loomis.
Speaker 7: It's really honestly though, for me from the outside looking in,
it's the arrogance that bothers me. If you come out
and you're like, Okay, here's why Dennis Allen's still our
head coach, here's why I believe in him. All Right,
there was this case, and there was this instance where
I saw him, and there was this game. Just trust me, guys,
I realized what the results look like but but he didn't.
He came out and compared him to some of the
all time greats and where they started. Look, we know,
like not every situation is going to be the same.
Speaker 4: Remember he still didn't want to make a move after
the seven game losing streak as well.
Speaker 3: I know it took to.
Speaker 4: Coming in and finally being like, no, nofm, some something's
gotta change. So we will see, we will see.
Speaker 7: Like, imagine doing a bad job in any profession, any job.
If we were doing a bad job here, if we
weren't the ninth ranked mid market morning radio show, okay,
and we were back, and nobody ever.
Speaker 3: Told us anything.
Speaker 7: We're just gonna keep doing the same, gonna keep doing
it like every job, right, if Taylor's bad at video,
and that's why I'm.
Speaker 5: Hard on you, that's that's why.
Speaker 6: Okay, But like imagine, like okay, sure, let's let's let's
use it towards me. Imagine I come in here for
a week straight, everything is flawless and nobody could have
done any better, and then I suck for the next
three weeks, and if you challenge me on it, I'm like, well, well, guys,
I know what I'm doing.
Speaker 5: I'm the same guy.
Speaker 3: That there was.
Speaker 5: There was flawless. There was flawless six weeks ago. And yeah,
but you've sucked ever since. Yeah yeah, but guys like,
trust me, I know more like I've been there. I've
had success. You've seen it.
Speaker 6: There's been very little success very recently. But trust me,
I know what I'm doing. That's Mickey Loomis's attitude when
he's challenged on it.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's uh, he has like Jerry Jones power without
owning the team, without being a billionaire.
Speaker 3: Sure, think about that, Think how dangerous that is.
Speaker 4: It was also not a billionaire, but he's also kind
of not huh he rich and that he was, but
also he's like part of the group that does control
the estate essentially. Now he's not the head executor. I
believe that's executive, you know what I mean? I believe that. Yeah, no, no,
for sure, no, yes, no, no for sure. But he's not
but yes, no, he is not like Jerry Jones. Okay, yeah,
he's Jerry Jones. But he also created the most valuable
brand and owns the most valuable brand in all of
sports in the world almost And they also like they
gave Mickey the Pelicans too. This man was running the
no qualification to run the Pelicans.
Speaker 3: What he was? Not that?
Speaker 4: I Griff Earra has gone that much better. But still,
I mean, what hey, wait, you just reminded me I
had a positive Pelicans thing in here.
Speaker 3: Finish your point though.
Speaker 4: This, Okay, I don't think anybody would have guessed this.
Eve me see Western Conference Rookie of the Month. Okay,
not of the week, Western Conference Rookie of the month.
How about it, dude, first Pelican to win it since
who was that guy?
Speaker 3: Well, Zion didn't play a month, Yes that two was
in twenty twenty. He actually want to go here.
Speaker 7: But he has been really good, I mean, certainly outside
of the lottery as well.
Speaker 4: Look in this month, he played Wimby, played Demonasamonis, he
played Siakam, played Karl Anthony Towns jokic eighty and yet
he averaged eleven and ten.
Speaker 3: I mean that's pretty cool. Okay, of the month, all right?
Joins j R.
Speaker 4: Smith, Chris Paul, Darren Collins and Buddy Healed and Zion
his the Pels to win the scor all right. Anyway,
The Pelicans are five and twenty nine. The Saints are
five and eleven and els she's nine and four.
Speaker 2: All interesting in the spurs.
Speaker 4: You can interest me in shutting the hell up, right,
see the thing that you're doing where your mouth opens
and your vote chords vibrate and sound is produced. Cut
it all out like full house. Cut it out. I
feel like Joey in the sweater right here. I'm sorry, Landra,
that was overly aggressive. I apologize. I kind of got
a little I got a little heated there. You don't
have to shut the hell up. I'm just jealous of you,
and I'm taking out my jealousy through anger because we
got Zion and you got Whimby, you know, like we
were both so stepped generational talents. But here you sit
with a man who is everything and more that you
could have ever wanted in the modern NBA superstar.
Speaker 8: Absolutely did you see him playing chess?
Speaker 3: Watching?
Speaker 4: I know, I know, as if he doesn't know the
exact way in my heart, I know he tweets out, hey,
everybody moving to be a Washington park playing chess? Come
play with me, and then he goes and does it
in the rain.
Speaker 5: Got about t Bob of Rage? Watch that like a man.
Speaker 3: I loved him for it. I loved him for it.
Speaker 4: I mean, look, if I was going to cheer for
a Western Conference foe, the Spurs being non big market
and kind of so far above the Pelicans for the
majority of Repelicans fan, I mean, I guess really think
the work against them would be the best year the
Pelicans ever had. It was indeed the Spurs. They ended
up eliminating them. But yeah, I mean, I you know,
I get on board the Spurs. I honestly, Okay, season
incredibly easy, like, except that they're just so jealous of them.
There's never been a better run small market team. I
mean what they had Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and James
Harden all on the same team, going to finals when
they're very young.
Speaker 3: Oh they lose everybody. Oh they're supposed to be awful.
Speaker 4: Oh they just created a roster last year became the
youngest roster ever to win a playoff series. Now they're
even better this year than I'm a full strait.
Speaker 3: It's just.
Speaker 4: The Pels are five, oh god, five.
Speaker 3: And tw it's a bad like exactly.
Speaker 4: That's the problem is, like you thought you had reached
the lowest of the low with the ad saga and
everything else, like, and it's funny now because Zion just
really doesn't care at all, right, Like he so obviously
does not want to be here. He so obviously is
checked out and just using whatever he can has an
excuse not to play. It's really really sad to.
Speaker 2: See the team above them, the Jazz seven and twenty five.
Speaker 5: Much worse than they have.
Speaker 4: Well, I was gonna say, in all honesty, though, they
actually have forty percent more wins than you do, if
we want to go, so you are that much.
Speaker 8: You're pretty far off because you're one forty seven, they're
two nineteen.
Speaker 7: The Washington Wizards are better than you at six and
twenty five and.
Speaker 3: They don't even have Martine Gorton.
Speaker 6: Didn't we decide that was like the most professional sports franchise,
like the worst historically.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're better than you.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: All we can hope for is the first overall pick
again and the third times of charm guys, that way,
times of charm guys.
Speaker 7: Yeah, the kid from Duke oh, Cooper fly. I mean,
might be a good year to get the number one
overall pick? Is this because last year wasn't great? No,
it wasn't great last year?
Speaker 6: Hey, I just saw bought all of us tickets to
the Pelicans game tonight, and I spent eight dollars.
Speaker 3: Two bucks apiece.
Speaker 6: Uh yeah, section three twenty one not not bad pro
it's gotta be two bucks of ticket.
Speaker 3: Empty in there.
Speaker 6: And it's row four too, so it's uber deck but
lower tro four so it's.
Speaker 2: Actually a court side seats are looking like.
Speaker 5: Two bucks a ticket again.
Speaker 7: I saw Danny courtside a couple of nights ago. Not
that I no, no, Danny's bawling out there, but not
cool to be courtside right now.
Speaker 6: They have tickets five rows up for one hundred and
fifty four. If you're spending one hundred and fifty four
on a Pelican's ticket, you're very.
Speaker 4: Rich, you know, you just have money to bring us
in minstreet bad, says Temm. How do you feel about
Magnus telling the man to f off he's not changing
out of his jeans. Did y'all see this Magnus Carlson,
best chess player in the world, all the blitzen Rapid Championships.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we literally talked about it in the group chat.
He got kicked out. Well, the guys bringing on air
not literal did y'all see this.
Speaker 4: Air he got He got kicked out of the Blitzan
Rapid World Championships for wearing jeans to the match. The
thing is, dude, I got to agree with Magnus here.
Is it against the dress code?
Speaker 3: Yes? Okay, but.
Speaker 4: Do you kick Michael Jordan out because he didn't wear
a suit to the game? Like, what are we talking
about here? Did you kick Lebron James out?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: For your superstars, you've been the rule a bit. You
had a administrator here who just wanted to go full draconian,
you know, and.
Speaker 3: We see I mean, it was it was, it was,
it was.
Speaker 4: It was just a little power You let Magnus play
in jeans if once playing gen especial because it wasn't
it didn't look sloppy.
Speaker 3: It was part of a coordinated outfit.
Speaker 2: But was it a little Canadian toxedo?
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, was it?
Speaker 7: Was it the mullet of that outfit, like when you
wear a sports coat, but with the mullet.
Speaker 4: Yeah it was. It was a mullet. Yeah, it was
a mullet, but it was a color coordinated mullet.
Speaker 3: Yeah it looks fine. That was all the time.
Speaker 5: Uh, you call that the mullet.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was pretty classic.
Speaker 5: That a lot. Yeah, basically every restaurant. Me and Victoria coat.
That's nice.
Speaker 3: That's what I wear, the mullet jeans with the sports code.
Speaker 2: It makes sense.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so Teep, I agree that some people are above
the lock. I think yes, in some cases absolutely. Hey,
you don't get those calls yet, right, that's something we.
Speaker 7: Referee that all the time. Like, you ain't getting that yet, No, bro,
you got to earn that thing. Kobe gets that, Mike
gets that. Yeah, Shack gets that. You ain't getting that yet,
prove it?
Speaker 4: Uh. Joe lamonsa he got married in his sport coat.
Speaker 7: Gene Am Joe, say no, there's no doubt in my
mind that what Weeks is going to get married in
a sports coat, jeans, a fantastic belt buckle, and some
Tony Lamas.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Tony Lama's.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what Tony lamas are.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were very popular, so comfortable.
Speaker 7: If you break in a pair of Tony Lamas, it's
the best, It will be the best shoe that you own.
Speaker 2: Their original to Cova's.
Speaker 4: My broken into Coba is a pretty damn comfy.
Speaker 2: Those are great lu Casey's are great.
Speaker 4: Yeah, uh and minche Matt says caved and he's back
in Well, I don't know if he caved, because no,
he never got back in the Rapid Championship.
Speaker 3: He got back in Blitz. He didn't lose lot soon won.
Speaker 9: This chess related yeah, v Day is the uh governing
chess body. Okay, what what should we do for the
rest of this hour's gag.
Speaker 3: Hood red stuff with our friends?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I really thought Taylor's gonna have more
NFL storylines for us, and he like said like two things.
Speaker 6: And that was kind of yeah, and then we went
like ten minutes on it, and then you moved on
to chess.
Speaker 2: We could go to break here.
Speaker 7: I think the teams that are actually should going we
should the teams that are going to actually be playing,
like for something, the Lions, the Vikings, the Broncos, the Dolphins,
the Bengals, the Bucks and the Falcons.
Speaker 3: Maybe the Commanders. Commanders is seating.
Speaker 7: Yeah, do you really want to do you want to
risk Jaden getting hurt going from a six to a
seven out. It's a difference between the Eagles and the
Rams maybe, But those teams I know are everybody.
Speaker 6: To your point, the Rams and Eagles are both playing
really well, and Marcus Spiriot is your back up. It's
not like you have like an inexperienced rookie back there
as well like you.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would, said Jaden.
Speaker 2: The chat is suggesting another ta ta beer run.
Speaker 4: Ah.
Speaker 3: I know, I know January though, so I can. Yeah,
it's really strict about it. Guys.
Speaker 4: Well yeah I'm not. You know, I'm doing drug January
until later night.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 4: All right, when we get back more tb off the bench,
get Gordon and get it done. Two to five, eight
eight eight eighty eight eighty eight. Gordon mcurn Andrew Attorneys
there for you when you need it. Man, my pants
falling off.
Speaker 7: Uh you go, look you get an accent you get It's.
Speaker 3: Not what I mean. I mean, they're literally falling off.
Speaker 4: Uh, I'm sagging bagging Berry. Nobody remembers that there's an
old all that skit with Keenan Thompson sagging bagg and
Berry could fit any in his pants. He once pulled
an entire airplane out of his pants.
Speaker 3: Now, I don't think Gordon can do that.
Speaker 4: What Gordon can do is if you get an accent
you need somebody's gonna stand up for you. Getst the
insurch coman, get you what you deserve.
Speaker 3: He can't do that. You gotta get Gordon dot com.
Speaker 4: You can fill the console form, you can see resulting,

Speaker 3: Eight eight eight eighty eight eighty eight.
Speaker 10: Good Gordon and get it done.
Speaker 1: Welcome in to the best morning sports This show around
Off the bench with Hester and T Bob.
Speaker 8: Weedam a lot.
Speaker 11: Of Sunday under.
Speaker 3: Road between the lines.
Speaker 12: Lies them like a hand and rested shirt.
Speaker 8: So to Labor Doors.
Speaker 11: Crime wolver Bear, I could down the bowl.
Speaker 4: So we talked Pelicans l s U men's basketball getting
ready to kick off se see play bult this with
Dandy tomorrow. That's right tomorrow in the p MAC three
thirty pm.
Speaker 3: First tip, JJ.
Speaker 4: How we feeling having emerged from the preseason. Of course,
while I feel good about how the team's conducted themselves,
the SEC looks like it might be the greatest in
its history.
Speaker 3: That's not exaggeration.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 6: I mean, well, you feel as good as you can,
right because the first eight games of the season, this
team was rolling, and then you know, you have the
injury to Jalen Reed. He looks so good from year
one to year two, and you kind of thought, how
is LSU going to replace these guys? Corey Chess has
stepped up, Damian Collins has stepped up. You also now
have developed that really good scorer off the bench with
Victorious Miller who seems like he drops like fifteen to
twenty points every single night. So you have that that
that certified one right in Cam Miller. You have solid
guard play, Your post place been really good, and you
got a score off the bench. So, like, you know,
is there talent top to bottom going to be at
the top of the SEC. No, But if this team
can get middle of the road, this is going to
be an eight or nine bid league this year. It's
that good. Yeah, So can you stay middle of the road?
I mean Mayna his squad nine and nine in SEC
play a year ago. I mean it is not unheard
of that he could do something like that again. And
he came on this show and he said, I think
we did enough in SEC play. It was out of
conference before SEC started where we really struggled.
Speaker 5: They didn't this year. So I mean, I think things
are looking up.
Speaker 7: Yep, I uh to your point thought, I mean about
where the SEC is right now. Alabama's fifth in the country,
Arkansas's twenty third, Auburn's number two, Florida's number six, Kentucky's
number ten, Ole Missus twenty fourth, Mississippi State is seventeenth,
Oklahoma is twelfth, Tennessee is number one team in the country,
Texas A and M is thirteenth.
Speaker 2: Jeezus, Ten out of the sixteen SEC teams are in
the top you know.
Speaker 7: Do you know what the the worst right now is
in the SEC? Team is South Carolina at ten and three.
Good God, that's the worst records. The only team that
has three losses. Everybody else is undefeated one or two.
Speaker 3: That's yeah. I don't. I don't.
Speaker 4: I don't really know to wrap my head around that,
Like I don't know how to pride context for that.
I can't think of a parallel in which I've ever
seen a conference in a single sport represent nearly half
of the of the top twenty five. I mean SEC
softball year, that's maybe baseball. After the first five weeks
of the softball season, every team but one was in
the top twenty five.
Speaker 3: Unreal in the SEC.
Speaker 6: But no, this this goes to show you how important
it is LSU's home games are going to be this year.
You have to win your home games. Yeah, because starts
with Vandy. I mean they're kind of like yeah, like Jayntioned,
I mean you know they're they're they're two losses as well,
they're right there with you. And SEC is already hard
on the road as well, But like, it is so
vital to win your home games.
Speaker 3: Is you speaking of winning on the road.
Speaker 4: The LSU women opened up conference play and well, imagine
this Coach Moulki squad dominated with the fourth biggest SEC
margin of victory of the Coach Mulky era, going into
bud Walton Arena, beating Argisas on ninety eight to sixty four.
Speaker 3: They were by forty nine at one point.
Speaker 4: I mean, they shot fifty percent from the field. They
hold Arkansas to thirty six. They forced twenty one turnovers.
They get thirty four points off those turnovers. Anissa Margan's
a nation leading fourteenth double double like it just and
they're sixteen. They're incredible. Shoutout coach Mulky. A perfect one
to zero, dominant start to the SEC season.
Speaker 7: I mean there's a couple of the same situation, Not
not as much as the men's side of things, but
same thing. You're gonna have so many top your team's
coming out of the SEC and it's going to be
yet again another dog fight.
Speaker 3: And when you look at you know where the SEC is.
Speaker 7: So we just gave you where the men's you know
the rankings LSU right now number six, Tennessee fifteenth, Alabama nineteenth,
Texas five, South Carolina two, Kentucky sixteen, Ole, miss twenty five,
Oklahoma number nine, and that's not even including some really
good teams like Mississippi State, who's thirteen and two. They're not,
you know, ranked right now, but they're a really good team.
Vanderbilt's fourteen and one and not ranked right now. And
so the SEC on both sides, men's and women's is
going to be a dog fight each and every game.
Speaker 4: Uh what a year.
Speaker 3: What a year.
Speaker 4: On the women's side, you know you have a team
that will they'll hang or beat anybody in there.
Speaker 3: On the men.
Speaker 4: We got to see what they can do. But I'm
excited for it. Uh Alabama fired their safeties.
Speaker 3: Coach in code defensive coordinators.
Speaker 4: So not worth a ton. But look, you don't go
nine and four and not have some blood spilled to
satiate the masses.
Speaker 3: Right, all right, when we get back more to be
off the bench.
Speaker 4: Go to Central Plumbing dot Org nine two five eighty
