1:02

Podcast called twenty five

1:04

wistuball and

1:06

they whist so.

1:07

Yes, too bad, But what did

1:10

you expect.

1:10

It's a podcast called twenty

1:13

five wiste.

1:18

Yes you heard anybody who yelled football? This

1:20

guy, the new guy, right, he didn't

1:23

know. We didn't tell him. So when

1:25

it's not football season, we have the intro

1:27

that goes, it's blank,

1:30

we're talking, and we all wear a whistle.

1:32

We yelled sports in the middle and I said,

1:34

hey, we're not gonna yell sports. We'll do the football one, which

1:37

Brandon interpreted as yell football.

1:39

But what an idiot he recorded the original one.

1:43

Who sings the theme songs. Yeah, yeah,

1:47

there is it is football.

1:49

We doubled up.

1:50

Yeah.

1:50

I watched the entire draft last night. Yeah,

1:53

and most of the time I don't watch all of it.

1:55

Life gets in the way. But I kind of had a

1:58

couple extra tokens I could use just

2:00

being an awesome husband, and I was just like, I'm just gonna watch

2:02

the whole draft. Yes, yeah,

2:04

So I didn't really catch him out of stand the other room. I

2:08

just didn't. Yeah, I just hit. I hit basically.

2:11

So I

2:14

don't want it to be too much about what's gonna happen in the second

2:16

round, we can say, sure they didn't get

2:18

drafted shoulder. And that was weird

2:20

because it was where's

2:23

he gonna go? I mean, first it's

2:25

possible they would go to Cleveland, but when Cleveland traded

2:27

out of that spot and jackson Villain's have given up everything

2:29

to get that spot, you're like, well, he's not going to Jacksonville

2:32

because they have a quarterback they just paid for a long time.

2:34

So then you're like, possibly the Giants,

2:36

but probably not the Giants. And he didn't go to

2:39

the Giants. So then the

2:41

Browns were there at five, and you thought maybe the

2:43

Browns were trading back

2:45

because they knew that Shouldar would still be there

2:48

at five, and so there is some

2:50

value to trading back a few spots, getting

2:52

some picks, and getting the same exact person

2:54

later. But when they took Mason Graham,

2:57

you're like, well, I don't think it's

2:59

gonna be the Raider because they

3:01

just paid their quarterback. And that's

3:03

like a Pete Carroll reunification

3:06

tour there, yep. And so you're

3:08

going, okay, well let's just look down. I

3:10

hope it'd be the Jets. I have been hilarious. It

3:13

wasn't the Jet Open, it wasn't

3:15

the Panthers they have a quarterback, But it was the

3:17

Saints at nine. That's what they had been talking about

3:19

for a long time. But the whispers had then

3:22

started to be the Saints

3:24

didn't even really value Schudur as

3:26

the next quarterback up. And

3:29

you're going, really, they may go and they

3:31

may go to Ole Miss. It's funny they call Ole Miss

3:33

Mississippi.

3:34

Yeah, because they put on.

3:36

The screen and they do it. They put on the screen, oh Miss.

3:39

But Goodell goes

3:41

from Mississippi University of Mississippi.

3:43

Ye.

3:44

So but no, no quarterback at all taken

3:46

by the Saints. Then you're thinking,

3:48

well, will it be the Cowboys?

3:50

And only because they're dumb, that's the only reason.

3:53

That's funny thought, that's the only reason. Because

3:55

I thought, maybe it'll be the Cowboys just because they're idiots.

3:57

Yeah, not because they needed it. They they're paying

3:59

down fifty million a year.

4:01

That never crossed my mind.

4:02

But wasn't the Cowboys.

4:04

Nope?

4:05

Then you're going, is it the Dolphins?

4:07

Two is always hurt. They

4:09

are paying them a bunch of money, but that backup

4:11

gets regardless of who it is gets

4:13

a lot of playing time, and

4:16

I think the ESPN analytics, because I was

4:18

flipping from ESPN to NFL Network,

4:21

how did it like forty six percent Miami

4:23

at that point? So Miami ends

4:25

up going to defend the tackle, and you're looking

4:27

down and you're thinking, either someone's going to trade

4:30

in at any minute, or

4:32

a quarterback's not gonna get taken. Because the Falcons

4:35

don't need a quarterback. They didn't take a quarterback,

4:37

The Cardinals don't need a quarterback, The Bengals don't

4:39

need a quarterback. Seattle possibly,

4:43

Okay, no Shitar, the

4:46

Bucks don't need a quarterback, the Broncos don't need a quarterback.

4:49

Nobody's trading in, and now

4:51

it's all coming to the Steelers, right because we had

4:53

heard if he lasted a twenty one, which we didn't think it was gonna

4:55

last twenty one anyway, for sure, the Steelers

4:58

Derek Carmon defensive tackle again, Oh

5:01

crap.

5:02

I would have bet the farm on that.

5:05

So in my mind, I'm thinking probably

5:08

the Chargers next, because

5:14

the Charger would have traded that pick, is what I would have thought,

5:17

because if the Steelers weren't gona get him, it's open market

5:19

for any of those other teams. But the Chargers being next, now,

5:21

they didn't they took They got there from

5:24

North Carolina and then away we went.

5:26

Packers on need to quarterback, Vikings on need to quarterback.

5:29

Oh wait, wait wait, there's a trade.

5:33

And they showed the draft room where

5:35

is and he's got a huge smile and he's like laughing, ude,

5:37

what was funny. The funniest thing to me was on

5:40

ESPN they showed where Shadur was.

5:42

He's in Dallas. There his home

5:44

and there's a big draft party. But on the screens they have NFL

5:47

Networks draft coverage. They didn't last very long in that room.

5:49

They cut out of there because they were showing NFL Networks.

5:53

Yeah that's who they were watching that.

5:56

I didn't notice that, Yeah, because I saw Rapport

5:58

and on the found network it was Eisen

6:01

and Rappaport and also okay,

6:04

yeah, so okay, giants

6:07

about to get them, about to get shutter. Here we go,

6:09

baby Jackson Dart University

6:11

of Mississippi.

6:14

My favorite is when they showed the fans and they're.

6:16

Like, and

6:19

there had been a lot of talk that it wasn't gonna

6:21

be Sudar. But it was like we're

6:24

hearing I know it's not the most

6:26

popular thing to say, but Jackson Dart

6:28

could go before shouldar uh

6:30

and then shoulder never went. So by the time you hear

6:32

this, shooter is probably the first pick in the second round, probably

6:34

in Cleveland or whatever, because Cleveland,

6:37

imagine that they're still going to get the quarterback. They

6:39

almost took as

6:41

round the first pick in the second round.

6:44

Wild and nobody they don't

6:46

have to trade that pick. Like, if that's what they want, they got it. Nobody

6:48

can actually trade into it and take it from them. It's

6:50

crazy.

6:50

Yeah, and they stocked up. Yeah,

6:53

the Jaguars trading up.

6:54

Which to say about that, The

6:57

Jaguars gave up a

7:00

lot. Yeah,

7:02

However, the Jaguars GM is

7:04

like thirty two for sure. He trades like I

7:06

do on Madden, Like he just trades,

7:10

probably the way that I just push.

7:12

Will they accept this? Will they accept this? What if

7:14

I add one more? Will they accept this? Well?

7:16

They and then finally somebody yep, trade

7:19

accepted And so yeah, they gave up a lot.

7:22

However, I'm a big believer

7:24

of taking big swings. He took

7:26

a big swing, and if you miss. Okay, you

7:28

took a big swing and it sucks. But you

7:30

really don't do big things unless you take big swings.

7:33

And it's not as if they're going to

7:36

be any good for the next couple of years. Without big swings.

7:39

They can slowly rebuild that culture, but that's

7:41

a four or five year thing. Yeah,

7:43

and they will have to rebuild a culture. But they got a new coach.

7:46

They now have Travis Hunter. They got a new GM. It's thirty

7:48

two years old. I was watching the interview. He's like, it looks

7:51

like a kid. It's crazy, Like, for sure,

7:53

he trades a lot on Madden.

7:54

Oh yeah, that's how your practices.

7:55

Yeah, I watched the whole thing. I

7:57

thought it was fun whenever the Eagles traded up one spot,

8:00

but that was in the first round,

8:02

just to make sure. But

8:04

they traded up with the team that went

8:06

one spot behind him, where

8:08

it's almost like you call can't sit and you go, hey,

8:11

are you gonna take John Campbell?

8:12

Right?

8:13

No, all right, then we're gonna be good and sit here. But

8:16

they were like, we don't trust you, Yeah, trade us and we'll

8:18

give you a fifth round. And so they traded up one spot

8:20

and they got him. Think about him was he was like twelfth,

8:22

thirteenth, fourteenth on all the boards, but he had he

8:25

was hurt yep, because he's so good. The

8:27

Eagles, it seems like every

8:29

year have somebody fall for character reasons or

8:31

injury reasons, then ended up being awesome

8:34

because that culture there either

8:36

a they heal up or.

8:38

Be and the Eagles already had like as a fan

8:40

base, have character issues.

8:41

Well yeah, or be

8:44

that culture corrects them, right yeah, oh yeah,

8:47

Like you don't go into you can't really go into that place

8:49

to be an idiot because they'll whoop you. They'll whoop it

8:51

out of you. Yeah. So I

8:53

thought for the most part it was a pretty fun draft because

8:55

you just didn't know. The whole time. I

8:58

kept thinking the Cowboys were gonna draft Golden

9:00

from Texas.

9:01

That's what I wanted, man, that receiver. That would

9:03

have been great. But you know what, though I'm happy with this

9:05

pick. We needed someone to take Zach

9:07

Martin Zach Martin's place.

9:09

You're not happy with the pick. No, you're happy

9:11

with now when you look

9:14

you wanted we want to flash Patthey

9:16

Golden, you said you get annoyed when they drafted.

9:18

I want a gent and then I wanted Matthew Golden and

9:20

then Scataboo after that. But Skataboo

9:23

will be around. I think we have three

9:25

picks in the seventh rounds. Well, maybe we get scatter.

9:27

You'll definitely draft a running back. There's a lot of them.

9:29

Yeah, heavy running back draft. Yeah, you

9:32

weren't happy last night, but I think you'll be happy.

9:35

It's like a sexy investment.

9:37

Sure, didn't know much about investments. But

9:40

when I'm like, ooh, let's do a restaurant

9:44

that's a wide receiver or hey, you're

9:47

like, it's gonna be fun. But if

9:49

someone's like, actually the S and P four four

9:51

eighty, you know you could do this and it goes up one point,

9:53

I'm like that sounds so boring, Okay, and then like three

9:55

years later, your lies of the restaurant out of business,

9:58

it's boarded up, or it's a daycare.

10:00

Now money,

10:03

it's actually made you money. Yeah, like that's what you guys?

10:06

Did you invested in whatever that is?

10:07

I know. But there was an interview that he did afterwards

10:10

with Michael Parsons and a couple other cowboys,

10:12

and it was so awesome. They

10:14

asked him, like, you know about He's

10:16

always said that he loves taking the

10:19

the love out of people's eyes when he plays

10:21

football. And they're like, what does that mean? Did you hear

10:23

this?

10:23

I saw that.

10:25

What does that mean? And he goes, he goes, He's

10:28

like, football is a child sport, Like it's you know,

10:30

you wake up in the morning, you excited to play the game. And

10:32

he's like, and I took so much, so

10:35

much love out of playing these guys

10:37

and watching the game start with them loving

10:39

the game of football and in the middle of the game

10:41

them looking like they hate the game of football.

10:43

And I was like, Yes, that's what I'm talking

10:46

about. That's what the Cowboys need.

10:48

You've been terrible. Jer Eddy would shift on every single

10:50

thing because he was all upset. Now he's like,

10:52

yeah, upset.

10:53

I was disappointed. But then after I

10:56

saw that interview and like, this is cool and he's the

10:58

third tyler on the offensive line. You're

11:00

just gonna get.

11:01

Well, you're justifying a lot of ways to like this. You know,

11:03

he's really good. He's a guard. Guards usually don't get

11:05

drafted at early. Tackles are much

11:08

more valuable because of how athletic they have to

11:10

be defending the edge

11:12

because those ends have the

11:14

ability. But yeah, no, uh awesome,

11:17

let's me go so, yeah, good job Cowboys.

11:19

As a non Cowboy fan, I think that was a good pick

11:21

by the Cowboys.

11:22

Yeah, you have clearer eyes.

11:23

I can understand why I'm in a Cowboy group chat, which

11:26

I don't want to be in. They put me in. I can't get out.

11:28

I don't even respond to that Cowboys group chat.

11:30

They were all like oh or

11:33

nothing for a long time after the pick, and they all leading

11:35

up to it, the memes and pictures, and then

11:37

I rode on there. The crowd goes mild.

11:39

I guess I did nothing.

11:40

They said nothing. What is everybody else think? Yeah,

11:42

so a pretty good draft. I mean Cam wod

11:45

obviously we knew he'd go number one. Travis

11:48

Hunter we knew would probably go number two.

11:50

We just thought it'd beat to Cleveland, Abdill

11:54

Carter. It kind of was the way we thought.

11:56

It just wasn't all the teams that we thought I did.

11:59

I've had two bad I had betting losses

12:01

in the past two days though.

12:03

Did you bet on the draft?

12:04

Well only I only made one bet. I may

12:06

I've lost like thirteen hundred dollars in the last two

12:08

days. I'll tell you my two

12:10

bets specifically. You good, Yeah,

12:13

I'm richt

12:15

you.

12:15

Need a loan.

12:16

I'm okay. I don't like it, Spot,

12:19

I mean, it sucks. It's not like fun

12:21

to lose, But now I appreciate that, Rightead, we're here

12:23

for you.

12:23

Yeah yeah, I had about twenty bucks all together.

12:26

Yeah. Yeah.

12:27

I bet the other night when Golden State was

12:29

down like eighteen to the Rockets.

12:31

They were at minus. There's Golden State plus

12:34

eight and a half going into half, and I was like, Oh, for

12:36

sure they may not win this, but they're gonna end up getting

12:38

and so I'm putting.

12:39

Wait, wait, you said for sure. Yeah yeah,

12:41

it Almos gets me. When I say for.

12:43

Sure, I'm like, for sure, gold does it. Golden State

12:45

they may not win, but they'll climb within eight

12:47

points and they didn't. Actually, they lost bad.

12:49

That's about fifteen. I saw a five hundred bucks

12:51

on that one, and in my account, I think

12:53

I had thirteen hundred bucks, and

12:55

so I bet Ashton genty to go

12:58

fifth overall last night. The

13:00

rest of it like seven hundred dollars seven thirty or something,

13:02

and he went sixth, and that was only because

13:04

the order changed.

13:06

Dann, That's crazy, that's close.

13:07

I think it was. To

13:10

look at that again, what do oh you know because

13:12

Cleveland popped into that five spot. It did because

13:15

if the deal was Jacksonville at

13:18

five wanted to take him, and if

13:20

Jacksonville would have been at five, they would have taken him. But Jacksonville

13:22

traded up to the two spot. So I think had that trade

13:24

not happened, I would have hit.

13:25

Yeah, Browns, we went down to five.

13:27

Yeah, so hey,

13:30

ub blood do you ubla?

13:31

Do I know? But that live NBA, dude, that's tough.

13:34

I didn't watch the game. I fell asleep and I woke up and

13:36

I was like, oh, let me count my moneyes. Oh god,

13:39

what that was funny?

13:39

You said this today too, You're like, man, I want to sleep. Hear

13:42

the Grizzlies won and sure got picked.

13:44

No, none of that happened.

13:45

Well, I didn't think she got picked, but I did think

13:47

to Grizzlies won because we were talking about it on the show.

13:49

I watched that whole game too.

13:51

If they were up by twenty or something.

13:52

Shit just started draining threes in the second half, and that

13:54

was over and I had.

13:56

Just assumed it was two to one because

13:58

we did the YouTube video with Raid see if I was gonna

14:00

buy some tickets to the game, and I'll say it's two to one.

14:03

And I was like no, no, no, like, oh

14:05

my god, they lost again. I knew Jow got hurt.

14:08

Yeah, but it was like a it was like a twenty

14:10

point lead. Yeah, twenty nine crazy,

14:12

Yeah, Thunder up three to zero.

14:14

Hey, I called it. I'm

14:17

just joking. I'm not gonna say that yet. I'm not gonna say

14:19

that yet. Wait till round two.

14:21

But it is fun though. It's fun now that like.

14:23

I'm rooting for the Thunder, but there's a bonus

14:25

to me. Now if they don't win.

14:26

Are you rooting more for Thunder or me and a

14:28

thong Thunder?

14:30

But there is a consolation, which is you

14:32

have to pay off the bed. I think it'd be awesome

14:34

with a Thunder one. I just I've been playing two K

14:36

a little bit, not online, but just myself because sometimes

14:38

I wake up like two in the morning, and there's

14:41

a breaking point of when I wake up and

14:43

when I try to go back to sleep and

14:45

when I wake up and I just can't go back to sleep because then

14:47

I'm messed up because there's a certain level

14:50

of nap that just messes my brain up. So

14:52

there's a breaking point. It's like two forty five.

14:54

I wake up before two forty five. I'll

14:57

try to go back to sleep. If I'm up three

14:59

ten, three twenty, I'm just

15:01

up because I'm gonna wake up in the next hour and a half anyway. So

15:04

I started to play two K twenty five just

15:06

against the computer. So I built a team, and I grabbed

15:09

the Thunder. That would be my favorite NBA team, even though

15:11

don't really have a favorite, but it's my favorite NBA Current Thunder,

15:13

All Thunder, Current Thunder because it's

15:15

the season and I tried a Chat.

15:17

He sucks. Wow, I don't know what to do

15:20

with him really, yeah, because he's

15:22

a fine three point shooter, but he's not quick enough. I just don't

15:24

know how to use him on the game. He was like a ninety overall

15:26

traded who did you tradeing for Amen

15:29

Thompson and another

15:32

draft pick? So I got rid of Chat. He

15:34

sucks on the game, and he also couldn't post people out.

15:36

They push him around Skinny as a rail. Gonna

15:38

be a terrible general manager.

15:39

I played like the Jaguar.

15:41

Yeah, I play like I played like two games

15:43

and I was like, I gotta trade chet. I'm out of here, so

15:45

we're all scared of you. Yeah,

15:48

so that's what's up. I want to play. I

15:51

found this on TikTok. It was hilarious to me. I

15:53

think it translates audio wise. But

15:56

it's a compilation of the worst draft

15:58

reactions of all time from the last decade.

16:01

And it was posted by Skimma

16:03

Scavie on TikTok. And what it is

16:06

they'll say and the so and so draft so

16:08

and so, and the crowd gets all pissed off, but it ends

16:10

up being great, like a great decision. The crowd

16:12

had no idea. They have a time

16:14

machine, obviously. I think this translates

16:17

go ahead, hit.

16:17

Of Mike, the bucalo Bill selection

16:20

Josh Allens.

16:23

Vikings with Justin Jefferson. I am

16:26

kind of unhappy with that, jjaj.

16:36

It hurts quarterback.

16:37

That has to be the stupidest thing I've

16:39

ever seen. Patrick.

16:44

Really, this is.

16:46

Why this organization will never win.

16:47

A Super Bowl in my life time.

16:50

That's great, That's

16:53

hilarious right so far, I'm ahad to translate because

16:55

I'm watching it going we have no idea, even

16:57

us, even the experts, because

17:00

either Kuiper is going to be mister genius

17:03

in five years from this draft,

17:05

or he's going to be the biggest idiot, because as soon as

17:07

the draft starts, they're.

17:08

Like, mel Cav's not your number one quarterback. Con

17:10

He's like, it is not, It's Shader Sanders and it's

17:12

like a nine minute American Idol highlight package

17:16

all about he's like number one, number

17:18

one. And so either he will look

17:20

like a genius for this or not. But

17:22

the way to win these

17:25

as a Kuiper

17:27

who's an analyst, us who just say stupid stuff,

17:29

we don't know anything, is just to be compelling

17:31

and interesting. It's not to be right. And I think a lot of times

17:34

people get those confused are like, well, you look how wrong

17:36

he was. The joke's kind

17:38

of on you because if they

17:40

were wrong, it was memorable by how

17:42

they were wrong, and they still

17:44

exist in whatever the zeitgeist of sports

17:46

media is. When they do the cow herd like how wrong

17:49

he is? At times the dude talks for three

17:51

hours a day, four hours day, five days

17:53

a week, just numbers wise, you're going to be

17:55

wrong a lot. But he's

17:57

very compelling. And even he said

17:59

that to me, it doesn't matter if you're right or wrong, like

18:02

just be interesting and so.

18:04

Iard said that too.

18:05

Yeah, and so

18:08

he wasn't. He was saying in a conversation, we were having

18:11

awesome yeah, and the time. Feel

18:13

about all the stuff that we do on this show or whatever. We don't.

18:15

We we're not experts anyway. We're people who just

18:17

love sports. But even on the big

18:19

show, like I say all kinds of stuff that's not right, and

18:22

sometimes I correct it. Sometimes I'm like, who cares?

18:24

Most time I try to correct it if it's something that needs to be corrected.

18:27

But yeah, we're wrong a lot. That would draft

18:30

reactions they were really wrong.

18:31

I mean that Josh Allen then we were all like what who

18:34

is Josh Allen?

18:34

Even after year one they were still like yeah.

18:38

So even in the NFL for a year, we were like, I don't know about

18:40

this. I do want

18:42

to play Michael Parsons. Because Michael

18:45

Parsons was live streaming like his podcast

18:47

Bleacher Report thing last night and they

18:50

had the camera on him when the Cowboys were drafting

18:52

their pick, and so Michael Parsons is

18:54

watching and they end up drafting Tyler

18:56

Booker from Bama the guard and so

18:59

baby bleacher which reports deleted the clip

19:01

which is hilarious.

19:02

Oh he said they say something bad.

19:04

No, no, but I was just playing

19:06

for you.

19:06

Go ahead, and the Dallas Cowboys

19:09

are selected. Tyler Booker, offensive

19:12

lineman from Alabama is

19:14

the official pick out

19:16

of the Crimson Tide.

19:21

I am excited about

19:26

hey, player, but we just laughing.

19:28

Hold on, hold on, I am excited about the pick. This

19:30

guy is a beast. He is a

19:32

beast. And I look at him and Tyler Smith

19:35

guard on guard with Zach Martin leaving.

19:37

This is one of them picks. I

19:40

mean, wow, he is a beast. He

19:42

is a beast. I just wanted to see that

19:44

on my side.

19:47

That's it. But this guy's a beast.

19:49

I'm not mad at the pick.

19:51

Because when they said, his face goes But

19:54

I believe him. I think he just wanted totally. He

19:56

wants some help. Yeah yeah, because he doesn't have

19:58

much help.

19:59

It that is him, not anymore.

20:00

But seriously, he was deflated. Yeah,

20:02

they were like, and he goes, no, no, no,

20:05

it's because I thought it was gonna be help.

20:07

He's just like Eddie another every other Cowboys fan.

20:09

Yes, you know, at first you're like and then you're

20:11

like, oh god, kay yeah, actually he's all right

20:14

the highlights and you're like, okay, got to convince yourself.

20:16

Yeah he wanted We

20:18

all want help, but that will there will be help.

20:20

That's help for the offense.

20:22

Yes, and that's coming.

20:23

We got more rounds and offense scores more points.

20:25

He gets more chances to rush the quarterback, more

20:28

sacks because they're always having a little more rest

20:30

to have the throw. Yeah. Yeah,

20:33

I felt that though. So we have Joe Flacco

20:35

coming up, pretty excited about that, really

20:37

good interview. Into a second, we can talk

20:39

about draft kings. I

20:42

gotta get back in the.

20:43

Next Oh yeah, reload. You're good, dude.

20:45

I never want to reload for the sake of losing.

20:49

22:09

Now it's time for our talk with Joe Flacco,

22:12

NFL quarterback, super Bowl forty seven m VP

22:15

playing with the Browns now. I bet

22:17

you he was watching last night going, don't picture her, don't picture

22:19

here.

22:21

He just seems so un phased in

22:23

every way.

22:25

Yeah, Flack just goes with.

22:28

Around.

22:29

But yeah, to your point, I'm just surprised he's already

22:31

signed with the team.

22:33

I mean I think he'll he'll start, Oh he should,

22:36

I mean, can you Pickett's probably

22:38

not. I don't know what. I don't know what they're

22:40

gonna do. If they're tank, they'll start Picket and Flacco

22:42

will be the backup because Picket gets hurt. If they

22:44

actually want to win some games, Yeah, Flacco

22:47

will probably be the starter. I

22:50

imagine that Browns will draft Shouldure

22:52

first overall. And I hope this doesn't

22:55

get played back in a compilation of like wrong things. Bobby

22:57

said, Yeah,

23:01

Joe signed with Cleveland this offseason, and we'll turn to

23:03

the Browns where he played in twenty twenty three when

23:05

he wont comeback Player of the Year. You know who he beat the

23:07

comeback player of the year. Yep, A guy

23:09

who died tomorrow.

23:10

That's right, Yeah, he died and

23:12

came back to life.

23:13

Yeah. He played for the Ravens for ten years, played

23:15

for the Broncos, Jets, and cults. Sense Joe

23:18

Flacco pretty pumped about this here he is. Hey,

23:20

Joe, appreciate the time. I wanted to start

23:22

talking about these cleats because, like,

23:25

I get hurt a lot, and I'm not even playing football, Like

23:27

I'll play pickleball and get hurt at this point. Like I used to

23:29

be like kind of an athlete. But so these

23:32

is it Kaddox cleats? Is that what it is?

23:35

Caddocks cleats? Yeah?

23:36

What do they do?

23:38

Well, Listen, the biggest thing they do is they kind of

23:40

blend performance and injury

23:43

prevention all in one cleat. It's

23:45

all the technology is all in the soul, all

23:47

in the actual cleat. It kind of moves around

23:49

a little bit and it just basically

23:51

like allows a little bit of release

23:54

when you're planting, so as opposed to

23:56

sometimes when you can kind of get caught and hyper

23:58

extend your limbs and kind

24:00

of you know, have too much traction. This allows

24:03

for a little bit of a release so that not as much

24:05

energy is kind of moving up through your body.

24:07

But it's really cool.

24:09

I feel really fortunate to be able to kind of be

24:11

a part of it and wear.

24:12

Them last year and kind of had that

24:14

whole experience.

24:15

So you feel like they helped, Like for real.

24:17

Listen, I think the biggest thing is is you

24:20

know that the technology is reducing

24:23

the risk now as

24:26

far as the athlete goes as far as I go, I

24:28

just went out there and wore them like any other pair of cleats.

24:30

I will say they're very comfortable. They

24:32

tend to break in very quickly and

24:35

be a little bit easier on all your joints. But

24:38

ultimately, for me, it's like

24:40

I'm wearing another pair of cleats that I've loved my whole

24:42

life.

24:43

Bro, I got to get some of these. We do a show too.

24:45

We travel around and like work out with colleges and

24:47

NFL teams like an interview, and

24:49

I end up I end up hurting something

24:51

every time because it's all I going to get,

24:53

which, By the way, they're doing a thing now. Catos

24:56

is partnering with NFL Alumni Health during this

24:58

week's draft to give away prepare

25:00

their cleats and you can go to NFL Alumnihealth

25:02

dot org or go to Katos dot

25:04

com c addix dot

25:06

com. My partner that I work with

25:09

a lot is Matt Castle, who played

25:11

in the league for a long time, and he talks about

25:13

once he started to be a

25:15

bit older and he had dealt with injuries that

25:18

the hardest part was not not getting

25:20

injured, it was bouncing

25:24

back because as you get older, it's harder to bounce

25:26

back at your stage

25:28

right now, is that the hardest

25:30

part is when something hurts, does it take longer to heal?

25:33

I think you got to make sure that you get to

25:35

the point where nothing

25:38

you minimize the amount of build up that

25:40

happens. Obviously throughout the course of a game, you're

25:43

gonna deal with acute injuries that you have

25:45

to try to heal from as quick as possible.

25:47

But I think for me, as I get a little bit older,

25:49

it's just that maintenance routine. It's getting

25:51

a good routine so that little things don't turn

25:53

into big things. And when I was younger,

25:57

you kind of run through those little things in a week.

25:59

And now I've turned forty, they kind

26:01

of build up, they don't go away, and before you know

26:03

it, you're hurting a lot more than you want to.

26:06

Does it hurt after every game or is there an

26:08

occasional game where you're like you look down, You're

26:10

like, I'm okay.

26:12

That's the beauty about playing quarterback is that, yes,

26:15

you do look down after some games and say, oh wow,

26:17

I came out of that one great. And you don't really deal

26:19

with anything. The other ten

26:21

eleven guys on the field, the other twenty one guys

26:24

in the field, when you're out there, they

26:26

are dealing with it week in and week out.

26:28

I would say that I have it easy, as you know,

26:31

as it comes to the NFL

26:33

standard.

26:34

Why are you still playing? You love it?

26:37

I better love it if I'm doing this. Yeah,

26:39

yeah, I listen. I

26:42

have one thing, maybe hopefully

26:45

a couple more than one thing, but one thing that I really

26:47

really enjoy doing, one thing that I feel

26:49

like I can really do at a high level, and

26:53

I've never really thought about not doing it. I've

26:55

been able to do it since I've been a kid,

26:57

and I kind of just want to keep that dream

26:59

alive. I still feel like I can do it at a high level

27:02

and have a lot of fun doing it. So

27:06

yeah, that's kind of why I still

27:08

do it. It's kind of a weird question to talk about,

27:11

but it's a lot of fun and

27:13

I do love it. I love being in that

27:15

locker room with all the players. I

27:18

love being in the huddle. That feeling

27:20

that you get before before game time. I

27:23

wouldn't say that I'm totally in love with that,

27:26

but when you don't have that for a few months, you

27:28

realize that you miss it.

27:29

It's just something that's pretty special.

27:31

Yeah, just eyeball testing you. You look

27:33

good, Like even with the Jets, you're

27:35

like man Flacco still got it, like when you had to play.

27:38

So if you weren't like telling us that you were forty,

27:40

or if the media wasn't all the time like Flaccos

27:42

thirty eight, Flahs thirty nine, I don't think

27:44

you like you. It's

27:47

almost like Adrian Peterson when he got hurt. Everybody

27:49

was then, oh wow, we can bounce back quicker or

27:51

ap did Brady's playing in

27:53

the forties the guys are playing in the forties a

27:56

little more, if it's technology of its health, if it's

27:58

education about you know what to do to their body. But

28:00

I feel like you don't play like I would think a forty

28:03

year old should play.

28:04

Like.

28:04

Do you feel like taking care of your body

28:07

is really paid off at this point in your career because of

28:09

that.

28:09

I do.

28:10

I don't know if I do anything special,

28:13

but I think I've been consistent through the

28:15

course of my career. I figured

28:17

out probably within the first three or four years

28:19

that I need to come up with a routine and make

28:23

it important to me to kind of stay in shape

28:25

and get stronger. And I think that the

28:27

fact that I've been able to stay consistent is

28:29

kind of what's allowed me to keep going. Obviously,

28:32

you have to get lucky along the way too. I've

28:34

dealt with a couple of little things here and there

28:36

where maybe I haven't felt one hundred percent,

28:39

but I think that routine has kind of allowed

28:41

me to get back to where I could feel good.

28:44

Is it weird to play for a new team and

28:46

you've done it a couple of times, But when you're a raven forever

28:48

and you go in the first time put on a different color and

28:50

you look in the mirror. Is that weird?

28:52

It was the.

28:53

First time I did it was definitely strange,

28:55

and I was a little bit nervous about it. I was kind

28:57

of felt like the new kid in class, and you

28:59

know, walking in to a locker room for the first time, and

29:01

who's the first person you're going to say hello to? Is it

29:03

going to be awkward? You know, kind of having all

29:05

those weird feelings that you don't know why

29:07

you're getting when you're when you're an adult.

29:09

But I think after I did it,

29:12

you kind of realize that there's a lot of similarities.

29:14

In every locker room.

29:15

We're all kind of working towards that common goal and we've

29:17

kind of been doing it our whole lives. So there's

29:19

a lot of similarities that you see from locker room

29:21

to locker room. And there's always great guys that

29:24

you connect with and can have a lot of fun

29:26

with.

29:26

So what about Stefanski? What is it

29:28

about him that brought you back and then

29:31

brought you back again?

29:32

I think Kevin's, you know, a

29:35

really good play caller, and I think his demeanor

29:37

in general is very good for running a

29:39

team. The way, he's kind of able

29:42

to, you know, stay himself and be

29:44

the same person throughout the year kind

29:46

of no matter what's going on.

29:47

I think he's been tested.

29:49

You know, he's had some success, and he's had some seasons

29:51

where they haven't won as many games

29:53

as they've wanted to. And I think

29:55

that that can really kind of sharpen

29:58

who you are as a person and make you come out better

30:00

on.

30:00

The other side. And I think that's what he's been able to do.

30:02

Can you give me a memory from when the lights

30:04

went out in the super Bowl? Because that was weird for us. I

30:07

can't imagine you're freaking playing in the

30:09

Super Bowl and it all goes down, Like

30:11

what are you guys even talking about when that happens?

30:13

And I remember sitting on the bench

30:16

and kind of the

30:18

lights go out and you kind of just look around,

30:20

like what the heck is going on? I

30:23

wish I had more memories of it. It's funny because

30:25

after the game, everybody kind of started expressing

30:27

to me what they thought, and some

30:29

people were scared. I mean a lot had a lot of friends

30:31

and family that were nervous as what

30:33

was going on. And thankfully for me, that

30:35

never really crossed my mind.

30:38

I kind of just took it for what it was,

30:40

sat on the ground, stretched out a little bit. You

30:42

know, you think it's going to be two or three minutes. You don't

30:44

realize it's going to be twenty or thirty

30:46

or however long it was. So I think if

30:50

I had to guess how my mindset

30:52

was, it was probably taking it like every two or three

30:54

minutes, thinking they were going to come back

30:56

on and we were going to get right back to it.

30:59

Playing at pitchurg In College

31:01

and then Delaware Like, to me, that's cold weather. Sounds

31:04

terrible, but you've

31:06

played in cold weather places in the NFL for the

31:08

most part too. Is that even a thing? Do

31:10

you even get cold? Or is that just normal?

31:13

There's definitely things about that that are

31:15

not ideal. I think

31:17

you just you put that big code

31:20

on, you sit on the heated bench, and you

31:22

deal with it for the five ten minutes

31:24

that you that you're not sitting on that bench.

31:26

But we got it. We got it pretty easy.

31:28

The fact that we got guys waiting for us on the sideline

31:30

to throw a big coat over us and sit on a

31:33

you know, one hundred degree.

31:34

Warming bench.

31:36

When you're out there playing, you're honestly not thinking

31:39

about it. It's like the first thirty seconds that you take

31:41

that code off that you're thinking what the hell am I

31:43

doing? Or pregame pregame warm

31:45

ups are actually probably more miserable than the game

31:47

because you're like, do I want to even go out there and warm up? Or

31:49

do I just want to kind of hang out in the locker room and say,

31:52

say, I'm good, I'll be ready

31:54

to go once the game starts.

31:55

And in warmups probably no adrenaline, right.

31:58

Yeah, exactly, you're not. You're just like,

32:00

I'm not playing the game. Why am I going to go out there and do

32:02

it to myself? And I don't have to, So

32:05

it's a little bit harder mental hurdle

32:07

to get a ticket out there for pregame.

32:09

At the height of your career or when you will say

32:11

that your arm was the healthiest it may even be now.

32:14

You ever just chunk a ball to see how far

32:16

you could throw a ball, You.

32:17

Know, I used to when I was in college, but

32:19

like when I was in late college

32:21

early part of my career in

32:23

the NFL, I was probably more interested

32:25

in seeing how far I could throw it and

32:28

doing some long casts these

32:30

days. I just kind of do it to keep my arm in

32:32

shape. I'm not necessarily super worried about

32:34

where I can throw the ball through the uprights from when

32:38

people ask me, I always used to say I can. Probably

32:40

I could throw it around seventy five yards. I

32:43

don't know, maybe give or take a few yards here and there.

32:45

So eighty eighty five.

32:47

I honestly, if I

32:49

could touch eighty, I would probably say eighty.

32:51

I don't think I've ever thrown a football eighty yards unless

32:54

I would unless I was down on the Jersey

32:56

shore on the beach with a forty mile

32:58

an hour wins, I wasn't throwing the ball eighty.

33:00

So that's a good point, because if I'm lying about driving

33:02

a golf ball, I never lie short. I

33:04

always or I always estimate a little long.

33:06

It's like, well, do you to Yeah, I'm about two sixty

33:09

five average, and really it's not that so I guess

33:11

right, Yeah, that's a good point. When did you

33:13

realize in your youth that you

33:15

had a really strong arm?

33:17

Oh?

33:18

I guess growing up on the schoolyard, just kind

33:20

of playing two hand touch, I could always

33:23

throw that little ball that you know, the little pee

33:25

wee ball that kind of everybody plays with. I think,

33:28

you know, we might have had a Minnesota Vikings or probably

33:30

a Philadelphia Eagles rubber football that we could

33:32

kind of I could throw the length of the schoolyard and nobody

33:34

else could really do that, so you kind of figure, all right,

33:37

I could throw the ball a little bit.

33:39

When these guys are getting ready for draft

33:42

day, draft night, if it's Night one or second

33:44

round or third night, like, what was your draft

33:47

night?

33:47

Like? So I was sitting

33:50

on my couch in my parents' house.

33:53

I really didn't want to let cameras

33:55

in because I was unsure about where I was going to be picked,

33:57

and just kind of wanted to be more private in general.

34:00

But obviously I got talked into, you

34:02

know, allowing him to come into the house. And I was just

34:04

kind of sitting on the couch and waiting to see

34:06

what happens. And we were all watching the draft, excited

34:09

and kind of eager to see what was going to

34:11

happen. But coming from Delaware,

34:13

I didn't know if I was going to be There was a lot of momentum

34:15

probably behind where.

34:16

I was going to be picked.

34:17

I felt like I was probably going to be picked

34:19

decently high. But I could have been a first

34:21

round pick. I could have been a third round pick. I had no

34:23

idea, So I was a little bit

34:26

I was excited, obviously, because

34:28

at that point I didn't really care where.

34:30

I was going to be picked.

34:31

I knew that I was going to be an NFL draft

34:33

pick, and I think that was the most exciting thing. But

34:36

yeah, there was probably a little bit of uncertainty in

34:38

my mind too, because you just don't know where you're going to go and

34:40

where you're going to spend the next you know, you plan

34:43

on spending the next fifteen years of your life probably

34:45

wherever you.

34:46

End up getting picked.

34:46

So it was, yeah,

34:49

definitely definitely a little bit of a mixed feeling

34:51

is about where that could be.

34:53

Who called you?

34:54

Ozzie called me.

34:56

Ozzie called me, and I think they were I

34:58

think they traded up with Houston, I want

35:00

to say. And he said, hey, Joe, we're

35:02

about to you know, we're about to trade up here with

35:05

Houston into the eighteenth pick and select

35:08

you to become a Baltimore Raven. And you

35:10

know, obviously, like the whole room that I was

35:12

sitting in kind of went nuts because they were you

35:14

know, they realized I was on the phone call and I was kind of giving

35:16

them a head nod or whatever I was doing to let

35:18

them know, like, hey, it's about to happen.

35:20

How much sleep do you try to get a night?

35:24

Right now?

35:24

Yeah, we're

35:27

going to pivot into health.

35:29

Man.

35:29

I got to tell you there

35:32

was a time where, like my

35:34

kids were younger, and we could actually enjoy

35:36

like three hours on the couch, be and my wife by

35:38

ourselves from like seven thirty to ten thirty

35:41

or eleven o'clock eleven thirty, whatever we wanted

35:43

to do.

35:43

You know, we could put those kids to bed.

35:45

But now my kids are getting older, they

35:47

complain about bedtime every night.

35:49

It's getting pushed, you know, further and further.

35:51

Back, And I'm usually knocked out

35:54

on the couch at nine o'clock and

35:56

then at ten fifteen I'm waking up with

35:58

my wife going back to bed.

36:00

Sleep until six thirty, six forty five

36:02

every day.

36:02

So is there you get to a

36:04

game, Because there are mornings if I'm either doing

36:06

the show or if i'm even if I'm on touring

36:08

doing stand up, my brain I

36:11

just have brain fog some days and if I sleep maybe

36:13

something I eight. You ever get to the game

36:15

day and you're like, man, like, I'm just not fully

36:17

there and you have to go all right, guys, my

36:19

brain's not clicking the right way and need you to help

36:21

me out a little bit.

36:22

Listen, there's times, Yeah, I don't know about

36:24

my brain, but your body definitely wakes up a little

36:26

bit tired sometimes, and listen, it's not ideal

36:29

for us. We're waking up even if most

36:31

of the time, even if you're

36:33

at home, you're waking up in a hotel.

36:36

You don't get to sleep in your own bed, and

36:38

definitely if you're on the road, And honestly,

36:40

I'm not great

36:42

at falling asleep

36:44

and sleeping well. In a hotel. I

36:47

usually can kind of turn my mind off and not worry

36:49

about anything, and I'm the same way

36:52

the night before the game. I'm not really thinking about

36:54

it. I feel like if I do have things on my

36:56

mind, I can actually relax and go to bed

36:58

and kind of put it out of my mind. But just

37:00

a night's sleep in a hotel, I've never quite

37:02

gotten used to it. So there's always probably a little

37:04

bit of that.

37:05

Three final questions that leads me to

37:07

that. So do you stay at home? Do you stay

37:09

in the same hotel room, in the same bed to at least have

37:11

some sort of consistency.

37:13

Man, I've been all over the place the last few years. I

37:15

have no idea.

37:16

That's a point I've been.

37:17

I think, typically, yes, you're you're in the same

37:19

room all.

37:20

Year, like in Baltimore, Let's same

37:22

room.

37:23

Saints, same room, same room.

37:25

Yeah, I want the same room, same bed, same channels. I want to

37:27

on Channel four when I get there, like an hotel. I

37:29

want to have some sort of consistency. What's

37:32

the goal of this season?

37:33

The goal of this season is to kind of become part

37:35

of the team first of all, and

37:37

then not you know, I obviously have some expectations

37:40

of my mind, but try not to worry about those things. Just

37:42

want to go out there and compete and hopefully

37:44

to be the guy that's on the field this year and helping

37:47

the team win some football games.

37:49

So my last question is the video

37:51

that went viral of you on the airplane when they call you and you're

37:53

putting your bags up in the overhead and it's like this Joe

37:55

Flacco, and that's kind of how everybody, Yeah,

37:57

what'd you think about that?

37:59

I guess I was surprised, but.

38:03

I think in this day and age, there's always the

38:06

chance at something like that's gonna happen. Obviously,

38:09

I'm on a flight to Cleveland in the middle

38:11

of the season, and on

38:14

the flight with people from Cleveland, so they're

38:16

probably thinking if they recognize

38:18

me, they're probably thinking, oh my god, what's he doing here?

38:20

Maybe they're looking to get him.

38:22

And I I think I was in the back of the plane,

38:24

so people probably thought that was funny and just kind

38:26

of random shot of me. It's it's

38:28

never the most flattering thing when you're

38:31

just kind of taking getting getting candid

38:33

shots taken of you in the

38:35

middle of a run, you know, in the middle of a walkway

38:37

on an airplane. But hey, I think it's all

38:39

it's all good. It kind of created some some

38:41

positive vibes and you know, got everybody

38:44

excited for whatever reason, and you know,

38:46

gotta love that.

38:47

Well, I'm rooting for you, man, I'm a fan. I've been a

38:49

fan. So congratulations and again,

40:13

That somebody asked me my favorite football players

40:15

of all time? And I was like, I don't know. I'm not eight.

40:17

That's tough.

40:18

That's tough, and I not disrespectfully.

40:20

I was like, I don't know my favorites would be ever,

40:23

So I made my list and I told Eddie

40:25

tamake his two. So do

40:27

you have ten through one of all time?

40:30

It is the easiest list, easiest

40:32

list ever made in my life.

40:33

I got to like four or five,

40:36

and then I had to start going, who do I even

40:38

like? Because I'm a favorite team.

40:40

Yeah. See that's where that's where it helps with me a lot.

40:42

All right, Number ten on your list?

40:44

Number ten? Okay, So the lowest

40:46

Joe Montana.

40:47

Should we start at one or ten?

40:48

I'd say one, because Joe Montana is like

40:51

kind of like I had to throw them down there, because

40:53

I cannot put them up any any more than that. So let's just go.

40:55

Let's go one.

40:55

Do you a favorite first? Okay, favorite player of all

40:58

time?

40:58

Emmitt Smith? Baby, I

41:00

mean, come on.

41:01

Did you get a picture of you and em I did?

41:04

Got yeah? Yeah, yeah, read give me a picture of

41:06

me in em it And you know the conversations that we

41:08

had, the fact that he said, like,

41:10

Edie's not a good athlete because I'd broken my arm.

41:12

That's pretty cool.

41:13

Yeah, he's nice because.

41:14

Somebody had asked, like, Edy, what happened to your arm? He's like, don't

41:16

ask him. He's just not an athlete. He's an idiot.

41:18

It's pretty cool. You got to meet your favorite, dude,

41:21

that's so free because I haven't got to meet my favorite.

41:23

And I'll tell you mine in a minute in real life. Yeah,

41:25

but favorite football players of all time? Ms Smith? Number

41:28

one, Number two.

41:28

Troy Aikman. All of favorite

41:30

Troy Aikman.

41:31

Now these are cowboys. Just

41:34

wait for the list. Okay,

41:38

quarterback Troy Aikman.

41:39

Yeah, number three.

41:40

Why Troy made just because he was a quarterback when they're winning.

41:42

Yeah, dude, Troyman brought me so much happiness

41:45

okay. Three Michael Lerman number

41:48

eighty eight, the King of number eighty

41:50

eight. He is the original O gen Well

41:52

maybe Drew Pearson was, but for.

41:54

As long as I remember, he's your number eighty,

41:56

he's my eighty eight okay.

41:57

And four DeMarcus where I

42:00

mean, did you ever meet de Marcus?

42:01

I did. I introduced him at the game right.

42:02

The Cowboys at the Cowboys game.

42:04

He's a monster and.

42:05

He's like, you have his number?

42:06

Right? Like, oh yeah? We text sometimes.

42:08

That's pretty cool.

42:09

So we have a relationship

42:11

because we had trauma

42:14

bonding. We did Dancing with the Stars together,

42:16

yeah, and then we would go train together

42:18

in the same room sometimes. And he was in my final dance.

42:20

Like you ask your friends if

42:23

sometimes you do, they'll be like, hey, you want to be in the final

42:25

dance? Sometimes people just want to show off their dance moves. I did,

42:27

and I just wanted to like get through it, and so I asked

42:29

him Mark, I said, hey, do you want to be in my final dance? And he

42:31

was like yeah, and he lifted me above his head and the dance. He's

42:33

awesome, like great guy, but a monster,

42:36

him barreling down on you as another human. You

42:39

see that guy, that big, that fast,

42:42

hitting you that hard on.

42:43

The football field.

42:44

Yeah, wow, crazy.

42:46

It's funny you say that because the

42:48

yeah, the on the dance when the stars

42:50

funny. He picked you up. But then also

42:53

when you saw him in person, he hugged

42:55

you and picked you up. So he's kind of that

42:57

thing like, which is awesome because like you're my best friend.

43:00

And then I love DeMarcus Ware and he came like

43:02

Bobby Boss and he picked you up. I'm like, dude,

43:04

that is so freaking cool. Bobby knows him like that.

43:06

He's so lovable, like such a wonderful

43:08

guy. I wonder did you root for him when he went to the Broncos

43:11

to win?

43:11

Yeah, any anybody that was good to

43:14

the Cowboys, I root for him anywhere they go.

43:16

Charles Haley, like, you know, same

43:18

deal. Root for him other teams.

43:21

Yeah, I think that's a good one to there

43:23

are sometimes I don't root for people to switch teams,

43:25

but.

43:25

It depends how they left. Yeah right, Yeah.

43:28

Next, Tony dor Set

43:31

old school. I mean he when I was a child,

43:34

he was the running back. He was awesome.

43:36

Five that's the number five,

43:39

Yeah, and then number six herschel

43:41

herschel Walker, but mainly because

43:44

he because of herschel Walker in

43:46

him being traded to the Minnesota Vikings.

43:49

All that, dude, we got all those picks and

43:51

we got Troy Aigman, we got Michael Lorvan,

43:53

we got Emmitt Smith, and we won three Super Bowls out of

43:55

that.

43:55

So your favorite player is a trade.

43:57

Yeah, the value of your favorite.

43:59

Player totally because he was awesome

44:01

in himself as a player, but

44:03

when he left and got traded, it

44:05

was it changed everything for Dallas Cowboys fans.

44:09

But it's not herschel Walker as

44:11

the player. He was still awesome though, hershel Walker,

44:13

I agree he was awesome.

44:14

So yeah, he's one of my favorite players.

44:16

Fair enough. I'll not argue there were no rules act.

44:19

Ceed Lamb the next number eighty eight, Well

44:21

skipping does Bryant ce d Lamb?

44:24

When he got drafted. You talk about like

44:26

moments when someone got drafted and you're really

44:28

excited about it. That was it.

44:31

Yeah, from Oklahoma, Oklahoma.

44:33

And I'll never forget it. When the Cowboys, because I

44:35

mean Cowboys notoriously don't ever

44:37

draft big names for some reason. It's always

44:39

like okay, cool, I guess we didn't need that lineman. Don't

44:42

really know who he is, but we'll take him.

44:44

You see where he spends a million bucks a year on the body. That's

44:46

where he came out with, oh, a million dollars. I think

44:48

it's like fifty thousand dollars every two weeks or something.

44:51

And he's like, well, when you

44:53

do you have a red light therapy.

44:55

He does the red light therapy, sauna, bed,

44:57

whatever the thing is. He has a sauna,

45:00

has does body work

45:02

people. He's like, it's about million bucks a year, but it's

45:04

like an investment so he can continue to make the millions

45:06

of dollars. Lebron was the one, the first famous one

45:08

that would talk about how much he's spent to

45:11

keep himself healthy. But Ceedeelam

45:13

wasn't like flexing on it. Somebody had asked him. But he's like, I spent

45:15

on a million bucks a year and Lebron's still playing.

45:18

Yeah, and he's forty forty eight. It's not just

45:20

playing. He'll probably be second team All

45:22

NBA. And that's not All Star team,

45:24

all start team's voting. And sometimes weird, I was get into that

45:26

big sniff on the microphone there.

45:28

Yep.

45:30

The fact that Lebron's forty and his second

45:32

team all NBA is wildretty

45:34

amazing. Okay, next up eight, number

45:37

eight, Michael Parsons

45:39

all time. I mean, so it's nine

45:41

and a forty nine er. He

45:43

did nine cowboys in a forty nine. That's funny.

45:45

No, No, I got one more. I think I think Michael Parson's

45:47

eight.

45:48

I know, yeah, but I'm saying the next one is probably a cowboy and it's probably

45:50

nine.

45:50

And know that.

45:51

Okay, Who's nine?

45:52

Tony Romo baby, Okay, number nine,

45:54

Tony Romo, so

45:57

number nine and then Jo Romo's lower

46:00

yeah higher, Yeah, man, there are a lot of pain

46:02

in the Romo years.

46:03

I thought Quincy Carter would make it.

46:08

John KIDTNA.

46:09

Quincy Carter was drafted for Georgia. He was he

46:11

was up next guy, That's what we thought. He

46:13

yeah, yeah, did you do

46:15

a list?

46:16

No?

46:16

Okay, I have my top ten here.

46:19

Number one. I have not met him in person,

46:22

only on zoom. Do you know who my favorite NFL

46:25

player is? Yeah, Boomers Bloomers because

46:27

he was a left handed quarterback, and since

46:30

I didn't have a team, I kind of adopted the Bengals

46:32

because he had a left handed quarterback and their

46:34

helmets were cool. That's literally it.

46:36

The helmets are awesome. Yeah, still are awesome, by the

46:38

way, But you're not a Bengals fan. No,

46:41

don't have left an quarterback anymore. It don't.

46:44

Number two Darren McFadden

46:47

Arkansas playing played

46:50

you know, Raiders and Cowboys, and that was strictly

46:52

I rolled with him that. My personal connection

46:54

is from Arkansas to in the NFL. I

46:56

think had he been on better teams, he'd

47:00

had a much better,

47:03

highly productive career because he was a really

47:05

good he had bad teams.

47:06

Did you see him play as a razorback?

47:08

Yeah, yeah, a couple of times. Number

47:11

three Steve Young.

47:13

Did that change because you did meet him?

47:15

No left handed quarterback, of

47:17

course, left handed quarterback in those years when

47:19

I had to find because I was playing quarterback

47:21

when I was young young mostly

47:24

just because I was smart. It wasn't even anything else, Like I just

47:26

knew what play, like here's the play

47:28

to call. I could run the play, and so when you're that age,

47:30

that's really it's just knowing out at what play, where

47:33

to hand the ball right. But Steve

47:35

Young is left hand quarterback. I thought it was so cool there weren't many,

47:37

so Steve Young was number three. I mean, if

47:39

I like in real life,

47:41

he'd be up there probably one after like after yeah

47:44

yeah, but I'm weighing in all time, like from

47:47

childhood and now everything. Number fourth,

47:49

Peyton Manning. I

47:51

loved Peyton Manning. I just loved the Peyton

47:53

Manning went out and ran the whole offense, and his offensive

47:56

coordinator was like his peer. It wasn't like

47:58

the guy that was giving him everything. It was like his peer.

48:00

He worked alongside, but he ran the show. He

48:03

was a freaking sheriff in that locker room. On the field,

48:05

I think Peyton Manning if you were if

48:07

there weren't championships, I think Peytonnnings probably

48:10

the greatest quarterback ever. But

48:12

because there are championships, Tom Brady is and

48:14

a vacuum thoughing. It's like you have one quarterback

48:17

and you need quarterback to throw for a bunch of yards,

48:19

to read deefenses to. It's Peyton Manning.

48:21

What era of Peyton Manning is your favorite?

48:24

Not the Bronco era because his neck was hurt. Yeah, Colts,

48:27

he did win. He was a super Bowl champion

48:29

there, yeah yeah, but not year one. He think it to eighteen

48:31

interceptions. Yeah, like a rookie

48:33

record for it. Picks Peyton mannings number

48:36

four. Dean Sanders is at five.

48:37

Yes.

48:38

I loved Dion as a player too because

48:41

he played both ways enough.

48:44

He didn't play a lot of wide receiver, but he did some,

48:46

so there was always the is he gonna

48:48

play wide receiver? But he did return kick

48:51

some punts, of course, and that was awesome. So

48:53

shutdown corner, which I didn't

48:55

really appreciate till later because they didn't

48:58

show the shutdown corner on television, shutting

49:00

down because they don't really it's not that wide.

49:02

They don't really put someone on. That's just keeping the ball

49:04

from being thrown there because the camera follows the ball. But

49:07

he was high profile. He wore the glasses,

49:09

the chains, and.

49:10

Then he did his little hop into the end zone.

49:12

Yes, he wasn't on yours, Eddie.

49:14

I thought about putting him on there, but you know,

49:16

I thought I gave DeMarcus Whare that that's fun.

49:19

Wait, so that doesn't make sense. You put to Marx for

49:21

all like five? Well here, but here's the Dean was gonna

49:23

be five or nothing. Dion

49:25

wasn't a cowboy for a long time. He shared

49:27

a lot of time with with a lot of other teams, So that's kind

49:29

of why I didn't put I think of him in my close

49:32

my eyes. I think I was a cowboy.

49:34

Really, yeah,

49:36

I do too.

49:36

Well.

49:36

He didn't play for Atlanta Hawks, sorry

49:39

Atlanta Falcons. Yeah, they're both birds in your eyes,

49:41

dude, just playing tricks on you. They're both birds.

49:44

I think of Deon Sanders football,

49:46

cowboys baseball breaks,

49:49

even though that was the same time he's played with Atlantic

49:51

because he could do both. But Deon

49:54

Sanders at number five, at

49:56

number six, Tom Brady nice.

50:00

I admire consistency

50:03

first of all. I admire

50:05

consistency and

50:08

greatness at the same time. Most

50:10

of all, it's so hard to be consistent,

50:14

impossible to be consistently great.

50:17

Now, that doesn't mean every year, but

50:20

dude won seven freaking Super Bowls. He's pretty consistent

50:22

that he was consistently in

50:24

the mix to be in the

50:27

mix to win a title every year. So

50:30

as I'm watching him, I root it for Peyton Manning

50:32

every time they played each other. But as

50:35

I've gotten older in

50:37

the light latter years of Tom Brady being

50:40

an adult and just seeing how consistent, how

50:43

thorough he was with the things

50:45

that weren't even football, the eating, the training,

50:48

developing his own system for him the flight.

50:51

Got to admire that consistency is currency

50:54

to me in every part of my life. And so Tom

50:56

Brady comes to at number six for that. It's

50:58

not even that I'm a fan. I like the Patriots

51:00

too when they were winning, not that I was a Patriots

51:03

fan, but I just admired how they consistently

51:05

cheated.

51:06

Yeah they did.

51:07

I think you're a different way. No one consistently

51:10

won.

51:11

Yeah, No, I I

51:13

do like it.

51:14

And they were always in the mix to be in the mix even

51:16

when they weren't, even when Brady goes down and Castle

51:18

goes in. Yeah, they didn't

51:20

make the playoffs, but it was the very last game of the season,

51:22

after they had already played, when they realized they didn't

51:24

make the playoffs, they had won eleven game. So

51:28

Tom Brady at number six. Our

51:31

lists are so different again because I don't have a team. Yeah,

51:33

and minor for like very personal, like human

51:36

like the two left handed quarterbacks, the

51:38

Arkansas guy, and so far a lot

51:40

of quarterbacks, mostly quarterbacks. Two

51:43

gets shown the most, Patrick

51:45

Mahomes at seven and I could put that

51:47

back on the Brady. That's the junior

51:49

varsity Brady version of that. And I like Patrick

51:51

Mahomes two because his little belly, Yeah,

51:54

now he looks like it.

51:56

Now.

51:56

He looks like a warrior. I said this

51:58

last year when he lost, like you didn'tiss him off. He's

52:00

going to train this offseason and be physically

52:03

better than he's ever been. If you've seen pictures

52:05

of him, have you, No, I don't google

52:08

that. Oh my god, he

52:11

looks like a soldier really, yeah,

52:14

you know with.

52:14

Their uniforms on now, with their rib pad

52:16

thing you know, around their other or other kind

52:19

of like midsection kind of makes them all look a little.

52:21

It does, because that thing pokes out.

52:23

A little bit.

52:23

But that's more than others, I feel like for sure.

52:25

But if you look at Patrick Mahomes now and you see

52:27

like his it's not even camp time,

52:29

but it's just off season workouts, you

52:32

can tell physically

52:34

he's been motivated to be physical. Pretty

52:37

wild. I love my homes Ikey would's

52:40

eight oh other Bengal in

52:42

my bank, in my Bengal days. I

52:44

like that he would dance when he's score touchdown, the shuffle that's

52:47

all it was about. Do you remember those are

52:49

commercials? Like I don't know the last question, ye'd

52:52

like a Geico commercial or something. I don't remember.

52:53

But he's buying meat.

52:54

Yeah, he would that guy.

52:56

Yeah, he like drops a turkey or something, does something

52:58

like that.

52:59

So, and that's only because when I like the Bengals,

53:01

he was the running back that danced and I liked that.

53:03

That's cool, dude.

53:04

And they used to wear these shoulder pads that were so big.

53:07

He looked like a monster coming

53:09

at you as.

53:10

A running back.

53:10

Yeah.

53:11

Oh just wait for my number ten though, at number

53:13

nine, John Elway. And here's why he

53:17

won at the end finally, and

53:21

I think that's pretty cool. He

53:23

hung in there and got himself

53:26

a couple he went to yeah, back

53:28

to back, yeah, at the very end, right, and then he walked

53:30

out. He was like he's like I'm done. Like

53:33

he was the guy I remember he too, maybe

53:36

the first player that was drafted was like, I don't want to go play for

53:38

that team. I'll go play for the Yankees and baseball. He

53:40

was that kind of athlete who who was the Broncos he got

53:43

drafted by well that's he didn't get drafted

53:45

by the Broncosay, so they ended.

53:46

Up bolt Maybe dang,

53:49

that's balls.

53:49

Maybe feels like it's the cults.

53:53

I think that would was still Baltimore

53:55

and.

53:55

He was saying, you can draft me, but I'm going

53:57

to go play baseball if you do. And

54:00

that later happened with Eli Manning and the Chargers when they

54:02

drafted the Eli Manning.

54:04

Uh so, Yeah, it was a.

54:05

Colts Baltimore colts Man.

54:07

That quarterback class of like you know, Drew John

54:10

Elway and Dan Marino and eighty three

54:12

Joe Montana like crazy.

54:14

And at number ten Mike all Stott,

54:17

nice big shoulder pads, huge

54:19

older pads, and a white guy

54:22

who was a running back and you

54:24

didn't see many white guys are running backs. You're like, that looks

54:26

weird. Yep, You're like, he can't

54:28

be that fast, but he just ran through people.

54:30

He was cool.

54:31

Yeah, a white guy running back still looks funny.

54:33

I'm like, I'm like, he hain'te that good, even

54:35

even McCaffrey.

54:36

Yeah, well McCaffrey, but even

54:39

Arizona State. Oh yeah, yeah, sattaboo

54:42

skataboo. I'm like, I wouldn't draft

54:44

him. He ain't that good. He's white. I hold that he gets

54:46

people. I hope that he gets them running back to if they're white, well they

54:48

get part, get part, Yeah, Toby, Toby

54:51

like Minnesota to you.

54:52

Yeah yeah, yeah uh so.

54:54

And also Peyton Hillis who

54:57

was on the Mountain, who was on the cover of Madden but had

54:59

like two really good years like won me

55:01

a Fantasy league or two. Never

55:03

forget it, and I would never.

55:05

I thought it was awesome.

55:06

Thought that was awesome. So that's fun.

55:08

Who's your favorite of all time?

55:09

Kevin? Oh, come on, nah,

55:13

I.

55:13

Know you think probably Tom Brady the problem that's

55:15

too easy though, Like, honestly,

55:17

my favorite football player of all time is Randy Moss.

55:21

I love Randy Moss.

55:22

And when he came to the Patriots, I was so happy because

55:24

as a kid watching him, he was like I remember

55:26

being in the yard and be like, oh, you just got Moss and

55:28

I try to make a catch over somebody.

55:30

So Randy Moss was my favorite football player

55:32

of all time.

55:32

I mean, my kids still say you got

55:35

Moss because it's now a thing that they do

55:37

on Sports Center.

55:38

Yeah, but it's great because I mean I feel

55:40

like it'll last forever because My

55:43

kids have no idea who Randy Moss is, have

55:45

no idea what he did, who he played for. But

55:47

whenever they get Moss, they're like, oh you got

55:50

Moss.

55:51

Yeah, I think even if you don't

55:53

know Randy Moss existed, that has now been turned into

55:55

what that. It's like, Yeah, you can't shoot a paperwad

55:57

to the trash can without yelling, Oh, even

56:01

if you don't know, I think

56:03

if I shoot at the trash can, I just y'all,

56:05

Kobe, I want to play a club for you here. So

56:10

NBA guard I used to play. Jeremy Lamb was

56:12

on this podcast called Run Your Race. This is

56:14

so interesting and so

56:18

Kevin Martin played for the thunder Kings.

56:23

And what I think is so interesting about him is

56:25

that I didn't know this un till I watched it.

56:27

He kind of was really good,

56:29

but he didn't want to be too good. And

56:32

then I'm like, well, why is it gonna be too good? Listen to this club

56:34

again. This is Jeremy Lamb talking about Kevin

56:36

Martin.

56:37

Back in the day, I got traded with what's the name.

56:40

Kevin Martin says like the second

56:42

quarter and say he got like nineteen

56:45

points he'll look up and be like, I

56:47

got too many points. I'm sitting there like,

56:49

what what do you mean? You got too many points? He like,

56:51

I got too many points. If I keep

56:54

scoring, then they

56:56

gonna make me.

56:57

An All Star.

56:57

I want my time to myself.

57:00

Hmm.

57:00

I'm sitting there like what.

57:02

Yeah, because when you become the main guy, you got a lot of

57:04

obligations. He didn't want

57:06

to go off to do All Star Weekend a week

57:09

He's like and then they talked because he played

57:11

with like Durant on that okay Harden,

57:14

Yeah, and he he would be scoring

57:16

a lot. It's like, ah, it's

57:18

so unheard of. Yeah,

57:21

crazy wild. It feels like in

57:23

other elements. The guy that played Lincoln Mike, the

57:25

method actor Daniel d Lewis. Yeah, Like dude

57:27

just goes and lives like small

57:30

but even as not even as an actor.

57:33

He just like lives in some small shock all

57:35

the time, like get to you know, he doesn't

57:37

want to be so famous and you can't call him by his real

57:40

name.

57:40

You have to call him Abraham Lincoln.

57:41

Whenever he's method acting. But he doesn't want

57:43

to be so famous, so he doesn't do a lot of massive

57:46

thing he just really do his he's

57:48

so good has his career. He doesn't

57:50

want to be so famous that he if it gets in

57:52

the way of his career or he can't live a life

57:55

because of his career the way he likes

57:57

to live it. Same thing here, Kevin

58:00

Martin, you know, want to.

58:01

Be that good.

58:02

He was that good, but he didn't want

58:04

to be so good that he would then have to lose his time for

58:06

All Star Weekend, would have to be the face of the franchise,

58:08

more photo shoots more so He's like, I'm just gonna be so

58:11

good that gets me through it. I'm

58:13

still considered a big part

58:15

of the team, gonna have a job, gonna

58:18

get paid well. But I don't want to be that good.

58:20

I respect that you got I respect

58:22

it. I'm not that No. No, I'd

58:24

rather have the All Star label them

58:27

all the money, and I want to go do All Star Weekend. But

58:29

even the baseball players that we know, they

58:31

would be like, man, all Star game sucks.

58:34

It's fun the first time because you're like wow, but

58:36

you just your body hurts, not the time

58:38

off. You just kind of don't want to have to

58:40

go do it, but you don't play lesser, so you don't

58:43

have to do it. But it's kind of blown away by that. That's

58:45

really that's pretty funny. Does

58:50

your kids watch any of the draft?

58:51

Adding? It's awesome, dude. I'm so proud

58:53

of my kids because I feel like I'm raising them

58:55

right. So as they watched the draft,

58:58

know, well, so my eleven year old he loves the like

59:00

he's the biggest Cowboys fan.

59:02

He's just like me.

59:03

And he had to go to a camp like a school camp, and

59:06

so he's like, Dad, please record the draft

59:08

for me. I'm gonna miss it. And they're like an hour away

59:11

from town or whatever. Well, last night I

59:13

got a text from one of the dads. He said,

59:15

dude, your son's a baller. He

59:17

said, yeah, he's like, your son's

59:19

a baller. I'm like, what did he do? Is he in

59:22

trouble? He's like no, he got the whole

59:24

camp to sign off on watching the

59:26

draft. So we're all here watching the

59:28

draft. My man,

59:31

like all the camp leaders are just like all right,

59:33

we put it on TV.

59:35

Most proud dad moment is his son getting other

59:37

kids to watch the draft.

59:38

I got a little tear, like that's my boy? Was

59:41

it for the Cowboys or was it just

59:43

for the NFL. Is he a Cowboys kid? He's a Cowboys

59:45

kid. But he wanted to watch the whole draft. He loves the first

59:47

round of the draft, every single pick.

59:50

First round's fun, it was entertaining. I will

59:52

not be dedicated to watching the rest.

59:54

I will check in with the rest. I'll probably

59:57

watch the first few picks of the second round. The

59:59

second round'll be fine because of all the quarterbacks

1:00:01

and running backs, like there's a we're about to have a big quarterback,

1:00:03

big running back run. Yeah,

1:00:06

there are no more linemen that Every

1:00:08

line was drafted. Every lineman was drafted.

1:00:11

1:00:16
