Hey! Now I'm in the street there with violence, and then I love to stop working with them. No people and I don't wash in, and then I can't pay for them to stop. Oh, we're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue.
And then you're making it higher. Oh, we're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue. It's very much it, because it's higher. Welcome to a part of my take, presented by Noom.com.
You can help here today with Noom.com slash PMT. Noom.com slash PMT. Today is Wednesday, April 21st, and the Super League is dead. We fucking killed that stupid son of a bitch.
Play the Coldplay song. Okay, hold on. You can bring that up. RIP to the Super League.
I thought we liked the Super League. We hardly knew. We liked the name. Yeah, we heard that.
And hopefully, I mean, if the Premier League is smart, they'll just rebrand it as the English Super League, and then nobody can ever cut them out of that again. But yeah, basically, what it all boiled down to was there was a group of very rich people, a bunch of billionaires, who didn't think they should pay for their own fucking stadiums. And they tried to organize the mass exodus, and they were like, well, what's gonna happen? There's gonna be a bunch of poor people that are upset.
What are they gonna do? Not buy our shit anymore? Turns out that over in Europe, yeah, poor people actually do that. Yeah, they actually fight back.
So it was 18 hours. Excuse me, 18. 18 hours. 18-hour league, and I just hope Texas A&M puts it up on the side of the stadium as their victory.
Yes. So Hank, you say Americans that created the Super League. Let me ask you this brain buster real quick. We deserve all the credit.
Specifically this show, and generally America, I would say. It's actually, it was a great test. All along it was a test. It was an experiment, and guess what?
There are 12 teams that failed. We put together this idea of a giant league that would suck to a lot of sports. No, we didn't. Marshall Henderson did.
Marshall Henderson put it together, and then we saw, oh, surely Manchester United and Juventus and Leeds won't join this. Leeds actually did. They passed the test by not joining. Yeah.
But then all these big teams were like, yeah, we're greedy, we're money hungry. Guess what? You guys really showed your ass, because you're the bad guys. You rich motherfuckers, we beat your ass.
Isn't this bad for our World Cup chances? No, it's great for World Cup chances, because Pucilic and Dest and all the other great players that we have right now, they all just happen to be on teams that would have been in the Super League and not been allowed to play. So now guess what? USA World Cup 2022?
Two. 2022. Another great idea. Have a World Cup in the middle of the desert.
That's what's so funny, because we were trying to figure out with troops why FIFA was coming down on the side of the fans. And we figured it out afterwards, it's because FIFA controls UEFA, the Champions League, and the Super League would have sucked all the money out of UEFA. So that's why FIFA was doing this, not because they're like some big. FIFA's like, listen, we're okay with letting North Korea into our tournaments, but a European player that doesn't compete in the Champions League, see ya.
Yeah. Now, excuse me, we have a bunch of slaves to go bury in Qatar. Yes. Whoa.
Damn, dropped a hammer on that. Sorry, I know FIFA isn't a good actor in any of this, but we did kill it. It's over. Thank God it's over.
The fans, mostly from us and leading the charge. I would say, I mean, that clip from Troops on the show on Sunday had a lot of people interacting with it, had a lot of people watching it, so we got the message out there. I saw James Corden just basically watched it and then did his own, like, Troops. He basically, he just basically did a cover band of Troops.
No, he didn't drop the inbound, like, Troops did not. No, he did not. No, he did not. Did you guys see the World Cups during football season?
Yeah. No, because they didn't do it in a fucking desert. That's crazy. They had to create these huge stadiums with air conditioning.
It's one of the dumbest things. You know what? I bet you that there's going to be 24 hours of football that take place then. Yes.
Soccer, football, football, football. Football time. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
We'll have to do a marathon for that. This is me just writing checks that I want to catch later. I did learn that there are more players on the U.S. men's team than just Pulisic, so that was a win for soccer awareness in America, so credit to the Super League for doing that.
I think it was all good. All good game from this. We all got together. There's nothing like a common enemy that everyone could just get pissed off at.
So, yeah, job well done. Again, mostly by us, but job well done. I'd say that the two biggest successes of this podcast have been, one, bullying Nyquist the horse off Twitter, and then two, ending the European Super League. Yes, there it is.
One and two. So, that one, just like, easy as could be. Moving on. But there is something that popped up in the back of my head.
When this was all put to bed, like, so quickly, they're going to try this again in, like, two years. Yeah, they're going to get the fuck out of it again. They're going to learn from what happened this time, and they're going to do it, like, in the dead of night. Yeah, but we found out they're bitches.
They'll do it during the Olympics, like when Putin invaded Crimea. But we found out they're bitches. They are bitches. So, we'll just fuck them up again.
They are bitches. We will fuck them up again. When they come at us, we will fuck them up again. All right, so the other news we had was that Lakers Twitter had a catfish problem, which is, I think we were long overdue for a good catfishing, and it was, to catch you up, which is really, it's inconsequential, but it's also very funny.
Basically, there was a female, or, we don't know the real identity of the person. There was someone who was pretending to be an attractive woman who was very much into the Lakers, did podcast appearances, possibly fake cancer, then possibly fake your own abduction, which is the no-no. You can't do one or the other. You can't do both.
And I was exposed, and again, I just love any catfishing story online, because it's actually incredible that it doesn't happen more often when you think about, like, where can you find horny dudes that if you just talk a little bit of sports, they will simp for you forever. Oh, yeah, the internet. I think it probably does happen a lot. We just find out about it.
Yes. People are just really good at pretending to be women online, I think. My idea was, why isn't anyone, so, like, all these stories are pretty much the same arc, where it's like, someone creates an account, puts an avatar up there that's not them, gets in a community, and then gets, like, one or two close friends, gets exposed, deletes their account. I don't know why.
Why aren't people buying penny stocks of this account right now? Because what if, like, there's got to be a one in a million shot that the catfisher actually is the chick, and if you start white knighting now, when everyone's going at her, you're truly, they're like, yo, are these guys bothering you online, guy? Yeah. And what's the worst thing that happens?
Nothing. You can't do the fucking dude who loves the Lakers. A buddy. A buddy.
A buddy. A buddy. Who you can sex with. And jerk off him.
In very worst case scenario, you look like a good guy for being like, I'm the last person that will defend the honor of this probably dude. You know what? Dudes need white knighting, too. I don't know why that gets reserved exclusively for females.
Like, every now and again, it would be nice if somebody white knighted for us. Dudes supporting dudes. I always say that I, oh, when I texted Titus, our good friend Mark Titus, because he had a nice tan, I was like, dude, you got a sick tan. Like, we should do that more often to each other.
Dudes rock. Yeah. Go tanning? No, just be like, hey, you look good.
Like, hey, you look good, bro. Why don't I just say it? I'm looking at you right now. I don't, I can't say it.
But if you were looking good, I would tell you you look good. Watch this. Jake looks nice today. Jake?
Jake? Jake looks nice today. Ew. We should hire Vivian.
Yeah. In the chance that she's real. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. She got abducted.
She's got cancer. She might, hopefully she survives this ordeal. In the chance that she's real, we should hire her to be on the show. To be our Lakers stats girl.
If it turns out that Vivian is actually really Vivian, she's our official Lakers course funder. That's exactly what I'm saying. It's in the finance world, it's a distressed asset. We're buying distressed assets in the hope that we can turn them around.
So we buy the distressed asset. It's one in a million shot that she's actually who she says she is. But if she is, she'll remember that we were the ones who had her back. She's a Kevin Euclis.
She's like, if we're doing Moneyball, she gets on base. It doesn't matter how she gets there. So the other part of the story, there was a couple of funny elements. Kevin Durant is now the king of Twitter.
So he was on Twitter spaces, like getting the breakdown. Kevin Durant, we have given him a lot of shit. We've called him the Triple B many times. And I just think that he has persisted so much online as being just an online dude that he's won everyone over.
Who's like, oh, you're so lame for being online all the time. And he just stayed online. And now it's like, no, he's cool because he's like us. I'm removing the mayor of Twitter handle title from Chrissy Teigen, giving it to Kevin Durant.
Because Chrissy shows up and she just tweets and then hopes that she gets all her friends to retweet her and tell her how great and funny she is. Kevin Durant actually engages with everybody online. And he engages with every single Twitter development. You know how sometimes you get a notification on Twitter?
It's like, hey, we're rolling out this new feature. Give it a shot. All those go to Kevin Durant. And he tries them out immediately.
Fills out the forms. Sends them back. He's on spaces. He's probably the biggest power user of Twitter spaces.
He's the official mayor of Twitter. Yes, he is. Was he catfished by it? No, he jumped into a Twitter space and just asked for a rundown.
There was a guy, unfortunately, who did fall in love with this chick, who was not a chick. And then also Taylor Rooks jumped in. And everyone, like, what they made Vivian out to be is what Taylor Rooks is in real life. And they all, like, she was trending just because she went into a Twitter space, which was hilarious.
Ice Cube's son, O'Shea Jackson Jr., he retweeted being like, find Vivian. Markeith Morris did that. The whole internet was like, whole Lakers internet. And it was just a very, again, catfishing stories.
I feel like we haven't had a good one in a while. So, and then she deleted her account. So, the person in the pictures of Vivian, I know that a few of them were Photoshopped. Kind of like the college admissions thing.
She was, like, playing water polo or something. Because the background's always changed for her. But it is a real person, right? The individual exists.
Whoever that person is should say, should take on Vivian's personality right now. It should be like Doug's. It should be like Doug's. Vivian should see that there's a brand built around her already.
She should just learn everything she can about the Lakers right now. Hop online and boom. She's immediately accepted. She's there.
She's ready to roll. I like that. So, she's kind of made like a, she's almost, what do you call it, Billy? What do you call it?
Like butterfly and the moth and the larva, whatever it is called. Metamorphosis? Yeah, there it is. Someone can hop into the larva sack and come out a beautiful butterfly.
Which is not a pun because her name is Butterfly, her Twitter handle. I didn't do that on purpose. But it is. I just realized that.
But what is it, Butterfly? It's Butterfly 424 or something. Okay. It's actually remarkable that you're able to build such a strong brand with such a lame handle.
Yeah. Well, she did gain 16,000 followers solely off of the fact that she got fake abducted and had fake cancer. That's true. So, I mean, she also was attractive, which helps.
Yes. You know what? All right, here's how I feel about the whole captioning thing. Because everybody online, to a certain extent, pretends to be somebody that they're not.
Right? We're all losers. We're all losers. Is that too deep for 20?
We're all losers. It's a fact. Like, everyone puts forth what they want to put forth online. And so we're all just captives.
It's my celebrity. Yeah. Worship is so stupid. It's the old, like, I can't believe this celebrity couple got divorced.
Like, oh, I can. Because they had a marriage. That happens. Me, Big Cat and Hank, we don't actually write any of the show.
We're just the beautiful faces just to suck you guys in. Jake writes everything. Jake writes. Bubba.
Jake writes. When Jake's wearing his glasses, he writes everything. Yeah, he's a head writer. I know we can do it.
Oh, Jake, I remember what I was going to ask you. Chet Holmgren. Yeah. Gonzaga got another lanky white guy.
Surely this will take him over the top. I'll see. I think that's all I wanted to say. I thought Jake broke that news yesterday because he tweeted out Chet Holmgren to Gonzaga.
I was like, Jake, are you breaking news? He's like, no, I'm just watching his live stream. Also, Chet Holmgren is not, like, if we're just going game alone, that's a fucking country music, like a failed country music act in Nashville. Yeah.
That's not a number one pick, number one recruit to Gonzaga. I would say, yeah, like, B-list country musician slash, probably the best used car salesman in Columbus. Yeah. From Minnesota.
Come on down and see Chet. What are they doing? What's Mark Few doing in Minnesota? He's just stealing the whole state.
Yeah. Damn. So, it should be interesting. It did bother me a little.
I say that jokingly about Chet Holmgren simply because I saw it, and, like, if Wisconsin was at his peak as a program, that's a, we should get a guy like that. A fucking Paul Laney dude. A Mississippi kind of guy? I guess it's actually reciprocity.
Right, exactly. It should be us. So, what else do we have? The, oh, I saw a crazy stat I wanted to throw out there because we respect, credit to us, by the way, for getting ahead of the, respecting Steph more the night before he went for 49.
That felt good, but he's insane. He's off the charts. So, yeah, it's kind of progressive. Of course, last week, it's been like, Steph is unreal.
That's what we started with. Yeah, okay, let's do it. No one's ever done what Steph's done. No one has ever done what Steph's done.
It's true. What is it, 73s in the last 10 games? You cannot tell the story of the NBA in the year 2021 without mentioning Steph Curry. That's a fact.
It also just shows how stupid we are as sports fans and how, like, in the moment, because I did say, you know, of course, it's just one person on Twitter, but I do think there is a sect of people who are like, Steph can't do it alone. And, like, dude, in 2015, he was the best player on a championship team that won 67 games. And the next year, he was the best player on a team that won 73 games. Right, they're just saying, like, I think he obviously has help, but he can be the best player on a great team.
Right, they're saying also, like, if you took away all of Steph's good players, then his team wouldn't be as good. Right. That's probably just a fact. One of the best.
One of the best arguments out there. Maybe we don't respect Clay enough. Maybe we don't respect Joel Embiid enough, either. Dude, Joel Embiid's insane.
The one thing about Joel Embiid, though, he's so good, and he makes the ball look so small in his hands, and it looks like he's playing on, like, a mini-hoo, because he's so large and so, like, incredibly skilled. The one thing with Joel Embiid, though, is every time he hits the ground, I'm like, that's it. It's over. Which is, actually, I think that's contributing to the Joel Embiid for MVP conversation.
The fact that he hasn't gotten severely injured this year. Yeah. He's figured it out. He is at a level, though, where he's just dominating.
Like, when he has the ball, it's just, okay, he's either going to score or he's going to make something happen every single time. And he does. He is just an enormous, enormous. When he caught that home run, and then he took a picture of his hand holding it, and it looked like one of those Cadbury cream eggs.
Yeah, Under the Giant. Yes. Under the Giant holding his Cadbury cream eggs just right in your hand. Yep.
The perfect spot in the palm of your hand. Perfect analogy. By the way, hand up. Yeah.
I fucked up with Cousin. Why? Because I should have said Nephew. Snoop always says Nephew, not Cousin.
And Cous, instead of like... No, Cous still doesn't sound great. But Cous doesn't sound Cousin. He also says Cousin.
Cous. And he has said Cousin, but it was also the delivery. I just don't know if anyone can deliver Snoop Dogg except Snoop Dogg. No cap.
Right. He throws an onk, too. Yeah, onk. He actually says every relative...
Yeah, here you go, Cousin. Yeah, damn it. Listen, there's some shots that you wish you could take back in life, but you know what? Shooter, shoot.
Yeah, Steph Curry. You got to keep going. Alright, so the other thing Oh, the stat I wanted to say That I wanted to throw out there Because it fucking blew my mind Ben Fox tweeted this F-A-W-K-E-S I said that like Fox The guy that overthrew Guy Fox, yeah Guy Fox Dodgers have been favored In 96 straight games Dating back to 2019 season finale Versus the Nationals They've been favored In 134 of the last 136 games That's stupid That actually is not Respect the Dodgers It means that people Respect the Dodgers too much Way too much That tells me that they're overvalued That's insane 134 out of the last 136 games Is it profitable, do you know? I don't know Isn't that insane?
They still haven't won a real ring though That's true They are really, really good And it's not Whatever You know what? I feel like whenever a team Is really, really good out west You can just be like We'll deal with that later Yeah, no, you're absolutely right Because for whatever reason You always think We won't have to face them Until at least the second Playoffs Well, it's just like The games are on at late night I don't really see them dominating Who cares, we'll figure it out later Alright, anything else Before we get to Hot Seed Cool Throne? My fantasy team lost 1-1 team Head Express What happened this week? Just one game a week Had some COVID issues this week Take that question back Don't care You just gotta ask I'm waiting for Mondesi Mondesi to get off the IL Look what you did I know It's just unreal Like this guy He hasn't even swung a bet yet Where'd you pick him?

Good job, hold on Great job Thanks My hot seat is golf And the way that people Are paid out for winning golf tournaments Because there's a I'm probably going to absolutely Butcher the explanation of this But there's a bonus structure That's going to reward The biggest stars in golf It doesn't matter how you finish In the tournament for that weekend It matters how much fan engagement And sponsor engagement you drive So basically it's great It's a max home rule Wait, so we can make them money?
We can make them money And they could potentially pay us back So that's my cool thing Is going to be us Because we can play Both sides of this going very easily So they're saying And the explanation said It's going to be given to players A drive engagement like Tiger Woods So Tiger's probably going to be Collecting checks Even if he's not playing And then they said I mean, there was a lot of engagement A month ago Yes, tons of it, yeah His driving ability was just It made driving to Sambo look awful And then Ricky Fowler He's on the list too They're really disrespecting Max By not mentioning it So we need to get This sounds like a scheme That will probably get us in trouble But will be lucrative For a short period of time I don't think you can get In trouble for defrauding the PGA Tour I'm going to agree I think that public sentiment I'm going to totally agree The way you put that I mean, the entire support Is based on the honor system Right So if we just sign a card At the end of every show Like underneath If we put a picture up On our Twitter accounts Saying like we certify That we are not gaming the system They have to trust us Unless there's video evidence And I think we've actually Had this conversation With our lawyer Mr. Portnoy Who's that's another guy We've got to get on again Because it's been a while But is it a scheme Or a fraud If you just admit it out loud Because we're telling everyone What we're going to do Yeah, we've asked that question I think he said no I think he said go ahead Yeah, he's like go ahead But I want nothing to do with it Right, which means Really go ahead And slide in You know, pass us some money We're absolutely going to do Everything that we can To get Max Homa This extra money We're still doing it on his own I'm sure Max might need Some help from us But we're going to be nice with Max Yeah, yeah Max likes where he's at He likes the little fucking ball busting You know Remember like This was probably 10, 15 years ago When they talked about Doing the original Super League Which was the Tiger Tour They were saying Tiger Could just break away from the PGA Tour Host his own tournaments This is kind of like that But for John Daly John Daly could show up And collect all this money Every single week I think he still Doesn't he still have an exemption Like wherever he won the Didn't he win the US Open? No He won maybe Yeah, he won the US Open I think it was Britain He has some exemptions somewhere I want to say I think it was the British Open Kyrdash, a finbom rat He'll also be another one That's the guy you guys want on the show He's going to be making a lot of money off Like each debate You know how they have We wish that they would show How much each putt's worth At the end of the tournament Every time What's his name again, Jake? I think it's pronounced Affie Barnett 1995 Open Championship At St.
Andrews Affie Barnett Every time he blows a sick cloud They should show us How much money in like PGA Or Buzz Cash Or whatever they're going to call it Yes, yes Two majors Two majors What was the other one? 91 PGA Championship At Kirk and St. Dick And 95 Open Championship At St. Andrews That's what I was thinking So maybe he Yeah, so maybe he gets a I don't know how the exemptions work I kind of like that idea That like Freddie Couples Can be playing the Masters forever Alright, my hot seat is My favorite kids show, Bluey Which I have talked about A couple times before If you're not watching it If you have kids And you're not watching it Well, you're stupid But you actually might be on You might be good Because there was an article That kids cartoon Bluey Criticized for not having Disabled, queer, poor, gender diverse Or dogs of color Prompting important debate Aren't they Blue Healers?
Yeah, it's a show about cartoon dogs Are the dogs? It's a show about cartoon dogs Okay, and they don't have Any dogs of color? It's a show about cartoon dogs Okay No poor dogs? It's a show about cartoon dogs It's crazy Can dogs be rich?
Actually, yeah There was that one Chinese lady That left all her money to a dog I just love that idea That's like, well I wasn't represented at Bluey So none of us were Because we're not dogs It's a show about dogs Cartoon fake dogs It's eight minutes an episode This is actually probably The world's richest dog right here Although, I was I was told to build goods About Doge Day today What? Everybody was just saying Doge's gonna go to the moon today I packed my bags I could never see that happening Damn, fuck I'm in my cool terms Of Bengals jerseys Because they didn't really change them Yeah I was just the lamest Like, hey, look at this Like, what? I can't get a joke Pearl's fucking scars Is really the takeaway Did you see that quote though he had? Holy shit, I gotta find it It was awesome This is a Oh, damn, that is a huge scar Whoa He is It's the anti-Trevor Lawrence quote Not to bash Trevor Lawrence Who we're rooting for But he said If I die without scars That just means I did Nothing worth fighting for I think that's a great part too That's pretty fucking cool Battle scars Damn, that's fucking insane You gotta get a tattoo on that Yeah Or the jerseys Like on the socks They should have a tiger stripe Where his scar is Add an extra stripe to it Yeah, but the jerseys were not different They weren't really I actually think that It's well known that the Bengals' ownership Is the thriftiest, shall we say They're the most careful with their money Of any of the major franchises And they probably just took the old uniforms And had somebody remove some of the stitching And they're like, look, it's a minimalist We deconstructed the old jerseys To give it a cleaner feel The only thing that I got out of this The Bengals' jerseys is I think the NFL in the next two years I'm going to call my shot Is going to change the one shell only rule So that there can be multiple different helmets All year long It's going to be sick That will be a big time Like fans win With all the cool helmets I agree Because the Bengals all white Those need white helmets Yes They have to have It'd be amazing Billy, what kind of tiger is that?
Bangle What? The white tiger? They're white Bengal tigers I don't think there might not be able to have There should be more tigers of color I think in the NFL That's true If you're a tiger and you watch And always probably watching it And being like, what the fuck I might be crazy But I think it's the NFLPA That doesn't want the multiple helmets For breaking in new helmets Either way I'm just calling my shot They'll probably figure out a way And I think that if it was going to make enough money For the NFL Roger Goodell could figure out a way to spin zone The whole like, it's not a safe There'd be so many cool ways I've never really stopped them in the past Yeah All right, Billy, your hot seat goes wrong My hot seat is Joey Bosa For being extremely horny on TikTok He was seen using a massager On himself on TikTok And with a TikTok model, Jenna Berman I think it's his girlfriend Yeah What do you mean a massager? He was literally just like Using one of those Magic wand Thera guns Yeah Oh, so what's so horny about that?
He was using it on It was just a really awkward video Billy, can you describe his girlfriend for us? Was it hot? Were you turned on? No, it was just Joey Bosa Looks like a very respectful person Yeah?
Yes, okay Cool drone I don't understand why this is a hot seat for Joey Bosa Me neither Because he was being a weirdo And using a massager on himself Okay, so you'd rather him be like A certain quarterback And go out there and pay somebody else to do it? No Anyway I'm all in favor of robots taking masseuse jobs If you're an NFL player No, it was a funny video Look it up My cool drone is Cool records getting broken The underwater bench press record Was broken Okay It's basically this Russian dude Just took a bench press Put it underwater And repped it out 77 times He made the previous record of 62 times How much weight? Only 110 pounds But does that weigh more underwater? No, less So I'm like That's more just a holding a breath thing Right, like a Navy SEAL So I'm kind of In the back of my head I'm like I can do that I can break that record In the worst case scenario you drown Exactly Fill up the studio with water Exactly Yeah I think we could probably find you Some sort of a tank To practice weightlifting That would be sick Break the record I'm going to find more of these dumb records And let's break them Exactly Summer plans Okay You of all people Yeah, you need more plans Well, I have no plans this summer Yeah, that's true Jake, your hot seat is frozen yogurt What?

to say We're the first show he's doing It's great to see you We also Jules we got a little news About what he's got going on next Which is going to be great for him That will actually be released On our Twitter, YouTube, Instagram Everywhere Because it can't be released Until a little bit later on Wednesday But we're excited for that So we'll have that for everyone But Jules great to see you Congrats on retirement How mad are you at us For asking you about retiring When you were totally thinking about retiring Last time you were on in January No I mean When you come on the show When you come on here You know nothing's off the table And I was just laughing in my head Like these motherfuckers So you lied to us Yeah I did not lie to you There were two roads That I was looking at One was you know plane And one was not And I tried to go down the plane road And it just I couldn't do it I can't do it right now Looking back I do feel a little bad Because I think if we had Thought about your reaction a little more But a great career nonetheless Thank you Thank you So I joke about the Hall of Fame But it's obviously not a joke Are you Do you see any of that shit Like do you see the debate Because I got mad for you That people were diminishing your career Just because they were framing it In a Hall of Fame And not just he was really fucking good I mean you see it out there Yeah you definitely see it But it is what it is You know Are you guys going to make the Podcasting Hall of Fame I don't know It's tough to say While we're still competing right now I know Are you guys systematic podcasters I don't know You know Is it because Dave's going to come over here And he's the guy that started this whole thing I don't know These are all the questions That I ask when I think about You know I think you guys are Hall of Fame podcasters I mean we might send Billy down to Tampa For a year And then can we do it without him Yeah You know You guys When the moments are the toughest I've always heard the best takes come from you Thank you When someone needed When you need a take In an absolute moment But it doesn't matter that as podcasters Your stats aren't there Your stats aren't there Your stats aren't there You're not Howard Stern I mean we're not there But you know what The takes are there So if you look at the longevity Howard Stern's a great example He compiled a lot of stats He had a super super long career But there were moments that It was big like right around the Super Bowl Later on in the season That's when Big Cabby and Hank Could be counted on to really step up And sure you know We only you know We had some injury issues We both had kidney stones We missed some shows here or there But do you think that that should be counted In judging us in the Hall of Fame I'm a guy that you know When I go to do something I just go to win And I just want to win I didn't grow up thinking about A Hall of Fame I grew up thinking about Hosting a Lombardi Trophy So like to me I really don't know But you know Me to you guys I think that of all the Things that you guys have done I mean There's a lot of great things there Can you tell the story of podcasts Without you guys I can't I cannot tell the story of podcasts Without you guys Here I mean I don't want to do our own horn But we're not going to quit podcasting Because we like bump our knee a little bit And get a little out Yeah but I mean Say you guys Take a little too much Adderall You're spinning You know You're walking down And you slip and you hit your head And you know You can't think as well I don't know Would you want to go out and talk I don't know these questions I'm just This is theoretically speaking Yeah so what about if like If Hank suffered Or if Liam got hit by another car God forbid And he wanted to get back Into podcasting And he thought that the best way To get his brain back Maybe he would take a little Performance enhancing drug To be able to rejoin the show To come back and win another title You think that should be held against him In his Hall of Fame resume You know what That's a tough one That's a tough one I would say no I would say You want to be out there with your guys Yeah Hey I want to be out there with your guys Yes yes What um So you're retired You are retired How long do you think How many years do you think You'll be rumored to be going to the box Because Tom Brady's going to play for 10 more years So I'd assume Your name will be floated out there Every single year That they might need an extra weapon How many years I don't know Honestly probably as long as he's playing It's just going to be It's also the first level If I'm going out a couple thirst traps out there I'm looking like I'm in shape I mean it could go crazy If like something happens And Scottie Miller sprains an ankle Your name will be trending within 5 seconds Completely different player But yes Right but you know You get it Did you see the video That was out there of Belichick When you returned your first punt for a touchdown And Wes was on the sidelines right next to him And Bill asked him Hey you know who Wally Pipp is He's the guy that got replaced by Lou Garrett And then Wes Welker was like Yeah well he can have the punt return job If he wants it that's fine Did Bill ever say anything to you like that When Gunner first got on the field No Never Did he look at you differently No He's like this is an old hat Would you we don't need this Would you have said I don't know man I was always in Gunner's corner You know I've always been Gunner's You know I give Gunner all my tips And you know it was kind of like You know I would compete I'm still competing against him But like You know we're different Different parts of our career Then you know I was 12 years in When Gunner got in Or 11 years in And that was when like Wes was like 7 years deep And we had it still going So you know it was different We also had a different relationship Me and Wes It wasn't the same as And Bill probably saw that Right Probably was you know Digging at him a little Just to get out under his skin To try to get him to play his best That's what Bill gets the best out of guys So Yeah you should root for Gunner Because I'm pretty sure Gunner's Like next two years Count for your Hall of Fame career Just like everyone just combined Wes Walker's last few years With your career So you should be rooting for Gunner Because we Enough years go by And everyone be like Yeah he was sick that 2021 year With Cam Newton Yeah we'll see We'll see Alright so you brought up thirst trapping I know a lot of times Like guys will say Oh I'm gonna miss the locker room Will it be thirst trapping That you miss the most Because I would imagine Your body's not gonna be in great shape A good old thirst trap Definitely holds a spot in my heart It's like one Your first one Your last one Thirst trapping Then your middle one Maybe yeah I would say that this might actually Help your thirst trapping career Because you get to focus on All the glamour muscles That you might not have had As much time for When you were just getting In a football shape Yeah you know it's the running When you run a lot That's what keeps you cut And when you can't run I don't know This is holding territory for me guys If I come out here in like six months And have a full dad bod That's what I'm rooting for I want to see you get fat And then we can make fun of you And then you can get thin again Yeah I'll pull you Yeah that'd be the best That's America's story right there You know get someone down And then come down And get them back up That's podcasting 101 What is your need like Just in general like walking pain Are you going to the gym Like you have to I mean we can't have Doing that when we get fat As much as I want to You know you gotta be out there Doing like hey happy father's day Here's a picture of me shirtless Hey happy mother's day Oh here's a picture of me shirtless You know like that That shit has to Hey Merry Christmas guys Oh whoops This is me in a pool Happy young people Yeah right right But yeah we're gonna keep We'll keep some stuff going Hey you know we gotta We gotta work out routine going And my knee I mean it's just It's different you know When you're bone on bone And you're missing things in there Like you don't want to run Right It's one of those things where You not only don't want to run You really can't So finding a way to Fill that void Is gonna be a You know my next life work You need a hobby We need to figure out What your hobby is Because I mean you've told us So many times like What your workout routines Would be like how Like you would be It's like cliche to say The last person out But you would be working out All the time during football season You need to find a hobby That can fill that void Might I suggest frisbee golf Disc golf excuse me You have to walk it Yeah bank chains baby I mean let's see Let's see how the shoulders are With rotator cups Maybe we'll get into that Ooh those are bad too So We're 13 surgeries deep right now Ooh yikes Again I mean I'm not saying Like BFC had surgery on his foot I got bit by a dog We didn't quit But whatever that's fine That's your prerogative That's fine No I have a serious question though So obviously it sucks Having to retire Having to get in the road But is it a silver lining Like you just know You can't do it Instead of a I physically can do it But I'm not the same ability That I was Because I feel like That would be hurt more If you were physically feeling okay To do it But just weren't as quick or shifty This is really like Hey it can't happen Like I can't My knee cannot do it No it's almost satisfying Because I left everything on the field Honestly like You know I'm not a greedy guy What else do I have to play for I set out to go out And make a team Try to win some championships And honestly I've accomplished everything Plus more than I ever thought I would have Going into my rookie year Like if I were in my rookie year To look onto my career And say this is what it's going to be I would have said no No shot Right That's how much work I had to put into this whole thing And you know It's something where I'm proud of my career I'm proud of everything I'm proud of the relationships You know the teams I've been a part of And you know All their time is undefeated And you know That's just how it goes And I'm not going to go out there And try to play on something Where you look like a bobblehead out there Like a 36 year old old guy Lacing up the knee brace The back brace You know I don't want to have that I don't want to look like that I respect the game too much It's been too good to me So you know it's one of those things Where if I can't go out there And be the player that I know I am in this league And that I've been for You know a consistent period of time You know I have no problem walking away Because you know I enjoy the time that I did have in this league The way that you're talking right now You're actually making a great case For yourself for the hall Peter King's going to listen to that answer And be like this guy gets it Julian gets it He gave to the sport Yeah More than the sport gave to him Yes you should say That you're going to have Peter King Do your induction speech If you do get into the hall If I ever do one You guys will do my induction speech It'll be a duet from you too We would be like So Julian Not really a hall of famer When you put him up against Reggie Wayne Where's Nines Ward Why hasn't he been inducted in I would just point to people And be like that's John Madden down there That's amazing What's up Groves It would be sick Yeah you're never going to get in If that's your answer Yeah We'll just go for that if you're looking back at your career because you had a lot of amazing moments obviously like winning the Super Bowls getting the trophies is there one moment or one play that you think of and you're like I'm the most proud of that play not necessarily your best play or the one that we all have seen and highlights but like is there one play where you're like that's who I was as a football player I loved the 3rd and 14 against the Seattle Seahawks getting you know when Tom hit me late across the middle and Cam Chancellor you know put a little heat on me and hit me hard and that whole week going into that game all we kept on hearing was the Legion of Boone the no flies on the this or that and you know we may not be the flashy you know you know skill position group we're not the Legion of Boone we're not this which I have nothing but respect for those guys those guys were studs Earl Thomas Sherm freaking Chancellor but you know that was like one of the things that was my play that I loved that you know that's hard nosed football right that's what I was when I transferred to receiver it was always can you make the catch over the middle yeah you know and that was the catch over the middle in the biggest moment you know so those were that was a fun play and then I'd say my favorite memory would probably have to be when we went to Kansas City and won that game in 18 you know just the sheer fact that my generation of Patriots we never won on the road in the playoffs and that was our first task going to the road and we got beaten Denver twice by Denver close games last place of the game and you know to go into Kansas City which that place gets rocking and that team's a really good team and you know to go and get that W against the odds of that game it was special that's a special one the flight home you know those are what you're going to miss you know the flights and you know that was a fun game so you just said your favorite play Hank texted us he said a concussion was his favorite play were you concussed in that play the third and 14 everyone thinks I was but no I wasn't concussed you got smoked I got smoked I definitely got smoked the thing is on the punt return right before that I don't know if it was that one I took a hit pointer and I've said this on air before I took a hit pointer and I could barely walk like when a play goes especially in the Super Bowl like everything there's no pain but in between plays you're like oh shit that hurts oh no that hurts all right all right then we go and so like after that I mean I was tired we were going no huddle like it was a pretty big play and I was like trying to get up and Dull was right there you know I couldn't get my hip pulled on me you know I don't think I had a concussion 20 yard in cut and they were playing a P coverage meaning they were dropping a guy so Tom was going to have time they're giving you know they were getting eight defenders in the secondary basically and so I was running late across the middle and I was 20 yards downfield and I knew that someone anytime you're going late across that middle especially that deep you got to start thinking about the post safety and they're you know that's their whole thing is they run that cover six which you guys will learn whatever so I'm going late across the middle and I look at Tom I kind of saw a chancellor so I knew if you've seen the play I braced for the hit yeah I'm watching it right now and for context for people who don't like remember it off the top of their head it's 11 minutes left in the Super Bowl and the Patriots are down 10 on their own side of the field in third and 14 so like if you don't catch that ball you know I mean maybe he punts I mean you probably punt because you got three timeouts but it might change everything it might change history there if you don't catch that ball and you're forcing a fourth and 14 on your own third yeah no it was you know it was a big part of the game and you know that's what you try to do that's why you lace them up man you dream for those moments yeah so along that line like I think not to keep going with the Hall of Fame thing but you obviously were huge in the big moments in the clutch moments do you we always have this discussion about the clutch gene did you feel like in a big moment like things got slower for you or it's like I just know I'm going to come through I know that I'm going to make a big play here and like did you feel that with Brady there were a few moments in my career where you feel like that zone where things are going slow and in some parts of that game like in Seattle I felt that in a very small amount of parts of the game in Atlanta I felt that and then like all the game against LA I felt that but like those key moments and those zone moments you get I always felt like I got those through like the weeks of preparation or like especially with like the Super Bowl week you get two weeks and like like I feel like the first one we got there I was so nervous and I didn't I wanted to go out and be able to make plays so I made my routine I sharpened my routine I did everything that I did during the regular season plus more and Bill does a great job you know he does a really good job making practice hard I know everyone says oh well it's just practice but when you're doing things in practice in certain situations he'll just say in the middle of practice alright it's 3rd or 14 there's one minute you know you have no timeouts and you have to get to here like in between a period so like he's putting that on you right there and it's competitive period and if you can go do it in practice and you've done it in practice a few times you're subconsciously already you've already done it so that's how I thought that's how I've always dealt with those situations in those times in my career that like you're really zoned in it was always after those weeks of practice that you like you had those plays like I remember when Tom hit me on that one play where it was a pit ball and we caught it I knew that guy was coming to me because we hit that play like 3 times in practice that week so regardless if I was covered or not he was coming to that play because we're confident in what we saw that week in practice you know so like that's how it always happens so along those lines I mean everyone always says one of the great things about Tom Brady is that he'll throw to he'll throw to the open guy like he won't play favorites if you're open if you can get open he'll throw to you but were there moments where you would say to him like yo I'm in the zone like I will catch whatever you throw to me like get it to me I'm that guy we definitely had some times and some moments where he would just look at me and we would do something completely that we weren't supposed to do and the coaches used to get on us all the time like I know you guys are doing what you guys do and we can't say anything because you guys actually because like coaches get mad with that kind of stuff go and do your own thing and there'd be a couple times where like he would give me you know signal where it would be a quick out and I knew he saw that I couldn't run quick out here because this is nothing there and I knew that he saw that we were backside and a slant would be wide open I would just run a slant and this guy would hit me on the slant and he'd go 15-20 yards at the gate on it like that happened over in a Miami game in one of those heat games we ended up losing I know we won that game it was a late game that was in like 14 or yeah 2013 or something like that where like there'd be times where we would just kind of do our own thing because of the years that we had off the field where we would go to Montana or we'd go to UCLA we'd go to all these places and we'd run the same play which you could do like five different things on that same play according to each coverage that you get and we would have our like some of our you know friends that are out there helping us like just try to cover like two or three guys try to cover me and like even though they don't know how to cover they could cover area and he could read body language and I could read his body language I could see what he would want you know those things helped us when we were getting the games yeah that's just fascinating I've always wondered if you watch if you watch the film of a Super Bowl after it's over like do you sit down as a team and never break that down or is it just one of those games where it's like what happens at the end of the season we're gonna wait till next season to start over again you don't because once you're done with the season you know like there's no more like film corrections or anything especially after that game you have the parade you have this you have that and everyone breaks but then like when spring comes and all of a sudden they'll have a cut up of plays installation because that's what spring is you're installing the offense basically for all the new guys and you know whatever like you'll get like a play from here a play from there and then you'll get a Super Bowl play and everyone's ears kind of get up and shoulders go back and like look and the new guys that didn't involve weren't involved in the Super Bowl are sitting there like man they're in the Super Bowl or like you know that's when you see it you know but you never really watch it as a team yeah what did Coach Belichick say to you when you were like alright this is the end of the road did he text? did he call? I hope he called no we had a wonderful conversation on the phone and you know he just he thanked me and I thanked him and I'll leave the words between us but like it was something that was you know it really touched me and because you know he's a man of few compliments because that's his shtick you know his thing is I don't care who the hell you are you're on the table to get MF'd if you don't do your job which I always hated that I loved that my dad did that with me growing up like it was a tough love thing what I grew up with and so like to you know he or Coach say some of the things he said I mean that was you know that really made my my farewell he like read off your home address he's like Julian you still live at this location and you have this many people living with you and just want to make sure that as you advance your career you keep everything that happened in England between us did Ernie call you?
no Ernie I haven't talked to Ernie oh no no Ernie's not no go ahead tell the Ernie story tell an Ernie story tell an Ernie story you want to tell an Ernie story well Ernie's the kind of guy bro like Ernie is Ernie comes into the facility and like we have like our cafeteria and every day you'll see Ernie he's an early bird he'll just be sitting at a lunch table with a huge ass like heroin tomato that's all he has in his hand and he's got like a fork and knife and he'll just be eating the tomato I always like bust his balls like hey tomatoes in season right now like he'll be like yep you know like you're not a real big talker unless you talk football and you know over the years we've had an awesome relationship and I always bust his balls on what he used to wear and stuff because he wears like he was wearing these plaid suits from like 1970 like in like 2009, 10 and then they came back in like what like 2014, 15 and then I was like Ernie man you can wear that thing through the training because they never went out of style you know like he just has these little witty comments that are awesome and I'm going to miss him for sure yeah are you going to miss doing the hype videos before the games because you were addicted to those as much as you were for doing the thirst traps you know what I loved so that all started back in high school like I was the kid who after the year was done I worked at this place called the Rikus Center which it was a training facility it helped you like your speed and stuff but it also had like a film studio like an editing studio this that so I would always make all the team highlight tapes after the season and like throw it on with some like ACDC and so that's where that all developed but you got to throw a hype video you can do hype videos for your thirst traps I show you getting ready to make the thirst trap and then have it all culminate in like one click of a camera with your shirt off yeah let me think about that how many times did you watch one of your you were really good at them I know you have a staff but some of them were incredible by the end would you watch them yourself like over and over and over I would be part of it like sometimes I would be like yo I want this here I want this and like I had the last you know elastic last button which one was your favorite I liked the cartoon ones when we were doing the cartoon ones back in 18 what was our cartoon guy's name Frazier yeah this Frazier we found him and we got in contact with this guy and he made like this rocky one where like I was climbing a mountain or the one with like the arrow and he you know and I caught the arrow and like looked at it in the eye and like I've always been a fan of a huge like awesome montage like a 90s late 80s movie montage Rocky, Cobra you know all those that's just I love those I love like music and guys training it could be a good little transition for you said you need a hobby you could direct other guys hype videos you could put them together you could be a writer of hype videos you guys started as writers and became podcasts right yeah maybe yeah so who's one guy in the NFL right now that you would like to produce a hype video for and why is it James Winston I like you where he's like you know I was number one pick and then everyone shit on me I think he might he might win a Super Bowl with enough of your hype videos yeah I'm probably gonna I'm not gonna go with with James on that one I'll let him do his own hype videos who would I give a hype video to DK DK would make for an awesome hype video yeah but he's already hyped I want a guy that's not hyped Scottie Miller Scottie Miller could be a good hype guy you could just swap out like it's next year's Super Bowl Scottie Miller looks a little bit like Julian Edelman or you kidnap him you go to Burrow oh yeah you need the comeback hype yes you know it's kind of like Eye of the Tiger you know you're back in the streets you know what I mean you've been trading what you really want for you know the glory and then something happens and now you gotta get back on your course and fucking get back on top so like that's the story I always like I like that you're passionate about that one I don't want the guy I want the guy that's on the bottom Andy Dalton Andy Dalton come on I think we get started with the Joe Burrow hype video because I can tell you're passionate about it you already got the soundtrack for the Eye of the Tiger it sounds like he's a knee guy you're a knee guy knee guy to knee guy it seems like a perfect fit although if you did do the Scottie Miller one you could like add in like very sneakily a couple clips of him dropping the ball and don't tell him about that and that way when it comes out it's like hey Scottie Miller really drops the ball I wonder if there's anybody else out there but I like the Joe Burrow one I like that idea me too I like them both yes who's your favorite teammate that's so tough man give us one and then your least favorite obviously we need both you could actually I mean you could say Eric that's an easy answer it's tough it's tough for your favorite you have like a group of guys that you came in with a group of guys that you're around Matthew Slater we lived together for a long time and him and his family have been an unbelievable influence on just me I'm a wild man everyone knows that and Matt is like literally like the reverend and we had like two polar opposite sides of everything and like we lived together and you know when times were like you know at its lows my guy would always help me mentally and he would always be the guy and you know when times were high he was the one to remind me like yo you know what I mean so like I loved him Matthew Slater is you know he'll be a brother for life you know the Rod Ninkovitches we used to get after Danny when he came into the picture he was always an unbelievable teammate James Devlin like when James Devlin he was an ultimate teammate this guy would just he didn't say much but he would be in the weight room and he'd have his smelling salts his chalk he'd be all braced up to squat and he'd hype you up when you were getting in there like you know and he was just always a class teammate Tom of course I mean I love Tom who? Brady oh he's been he's been you know he's been like an older brother for me but he was always kind of like you know he was the older brother that you know you hung out with him but you had like your little slapdick friends too that like before you were cool enough to hang out with your older brother like you hung out with so I always you know had those guys and there's so many more I noticed you didn't mention Gronk interesting Why did you and Gronk have a falling out? We never had a falling out. It's just, you know, Gronk was, like, he legit was, like, having just a big old teddy bear at work every day.
So, like, I would be an intense guy always. A lot of the time. I'd be a joker, too. But, like, I was very intense.
And to have that, like, you know, to have a guy like Gronk who the game just came so easy. This guy was, like, just having fun. Like, you'd see him in the corner of his locker, like, playing with, like, a tape and, like, laughing. And, like, you know, you needed that.
You definitely needed that. So Gronk's definitely up there. I think we should put that. Your description of James Devlin there, that should be part of your Hall of Fame resume because the excitement that you had there to explain someone getting ready to, like, go to war at the squat rack, that's a football guy.
Like, I could see in your eyes thinking about him just lifting got you excited in the moment. Well, you know, James came from a very similar story, man. Like, he was a defensive lineman at Brown. He was, like, a D-end or something.
And he worked his way to becoming, you know, one of the best pullbacks in the game. Like, we live and die by James. Like, he did so much with his team, you know, in a special team game. Like, and he, you never heard anything from him, you know.
And there were times where, like, I'd be sitting there and I want to say something. And then you look at a guy like James who, he doesn't ever touch the rock or anything. And this guy's, like, just gung-ho, excited to be there, coffee, let's go, weight room, smelly salt. Like, that's James Devlin.
And those are the guys that you're going to remember. Yeah, that one play they had in the Super Bowl, I think it was against the Rams because he had to block in Dominic and Sue. And he laid a wham on him. And you could tell, like, he knew that he was about to get knocked out in that play.
He was going to get run over. But he was like, you know what? I have to do this. And I'm just going to, like, I'm going to run headfirst into this guy.
And it worked. It worked. You had a couple big blocks in the Super Bowl, too. How come people don't talk about your blocking ability?
I don't know, man. I just do what the team has to do. I love it. Yeah.
Put that on the resume. You know, it's, I mean, that's a huge part. Like, I remember, and that's a huge reason of that, of our blockiness as New England receivers was because of Chad O'Shea. You know, when I first got there, Chad O'Shea, he just got there.
I believe he's in Cleveland now. He went with Flores to Miami as an OC. And then now he's a receiver coach at Cleveland. But, like, Bill would always just say two things to the receiver.
Just get open and catch the fucking ball. That's what you do as a receiver, all right? And then we'd go in the room, and Chad would be like, and compete in the run game. And we're competing in the run game.
You know, you get the ball, and you're competing in the run game. And, you know, like, it was just, you know, I had guys before me that were awesome blockers. And so that's what you learn when you're a younger guy. And, you know, you can't be afraid to go in and block.
It's an effort thing. And, you know, and James Deadwin, he's the type of guy that motivated you, too. Because, like, he craved head injuries. This guy, like, wanted to go knock himself out.
That's when he knew he had to block. Like, so when you see a guy like that, then you're like, man, I've got to go do the same thing. Yeah. So we're going to, like I said at the start of the interview, we know what Jewel's got going on next.
We're going to put it out on all of our social, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, everywhere, when the announcement can be made. So make sure you check that out. But I know what you're going to be doing next. He's going to be Jack Easterby's hype man.
Jack Easterby's hype man. The way you're talking right now, is there any chance maybe coaching? You know what? No, probably not.
You know, I have too much, like, I want to have a life. Like, I've lived this now for 12 years of, like, literally 14-hour days. Like, get up, 4.30, get to the facility, 5.15, body work, workout, ball drill, meetings, practice, workout, more meat. Like, and the coaches are there for, like, 18 hours, and the sheer fact that I've seen this group do that, if I were to go somewhere else and not do that, then I'm thinking, like, all right, I'm already in the hole, because I don't feel like doing that anymore.
You know what I mean? Which I'll probably end up transferring and doing that in the next life. But, like, right now, like, I have no interest into it. Maybe, like, you know, I always tell the scouts, if you need a guy in L.A.
to look at a guy, a receiver, work him out. Because I always say, like, what are we doing? Like, let me look a guy in the eyes, and I'll tell you if he can play or not. That's what it is.
It's in the huddle. When you're in a huddle, like, there's false eyes, and there's not. Like, you need to be able to look a dude in his eyes and, like, really see if that guy, if he's ready for when it's going to come. Yeah, I like that answer.
Who had the best huddle eyes? Whose eyes were the readiest? Brady's got insane huddle eyes. Brady, because, you know, he's already got, like, the, you know, Zoolander, like, blue steel-like look, and, like, he gives you that eye, and, like, Joel, let's go!
I'm like, yeah. We've got to quit that. I think that was, like, that was his entire career, like, there's something up in a second and a half. Yeah, you know, the funniest eyes would be Gronk.
Gronk would be, like, looking at you, like, that's the one guy who's got a good poker face. You just don't know where it's going. You need to look at the comp size, and you'd be, like, Gronk tired, or what's going on? And he'd have, like, a 50-yard catch, and, like, these six guys, and he'd come in, like, I'm a little tired after that one.
And he'd be, like, stiff-hearted, like, three guys. Like, heck of a ton. Billy, do you have any questions? Well, yeah, let me do the last question.
The Roback. Okay, yeah. So, use code PFT on Roback.com for 20% off your first purchase. Roback.com, R-H-O-B-A-C-K.com.
Code PFT. They make the best performance polls, the only performance polls we wear. And for our guest today, we're going to give you a free Roback performance Q-Zip on us. This is big, because Billy is going to do the Roback question.
So, my question is going to be pretty hard-hitting. Let's hear it. I always, hey, I figure right now, my guy knows some football. I hear your takes, Billy.
Listen, I hear your takes, buddy. Appreciate it. Football and frogs. So, many Belichick disciples have been hired as head coaches outside the Patriots, and why haven't they been able to recreate the Patriot way outside of Foxborough?
Good job, Billy. Roback question. It's hard to go in and try to be Bill Belichick without being Bill Belichick. Like, you know, you can't just go in and demand, you know, the respect and put, like, this crazy, you know, work schedule and this schedule and, you know, attention to detail and the practice, like, intensity.
Like, you have to kind of massage that in for a group that has never really had that. You can't just go and demand it. You know, Bill can literally, you know, Bill's coached in the league for 40 years. You know, he started with the Baltimore Colts, bro.
Like, he's been around this. He's seen every position, every type of player, like, in the thousands. So, like, it's hard for a guy to, like, not – you can't just go and try to copy what he does. It's not going to be you.
I think that's – a lot of it has to do with that. A lot of these guys, you know, they go in, they try to be a hard dick or they try to be this and they try to – you know, they try to do everything that Bill does. You can learn a lot from that. And I don't know.
I never played for another coach and I'm not saying – if you could have been different, there's different circumstances with everything. But, you know, just – I don't think you can just go and demand, you know, a team like you're Bill Belichick unless you're Bill Belichick. Yeah, good answer. Good answer to your question, Billy.
Was there anything that he ever tried to do, like a new wrinkle that he tried to add or a different way of doing things around the building where he recognized that this way wasn't working and had to, like, walk it back and be like, I tried something new. It didn't work. Let's go back to the old way. Yeah, there was a time where, like, we were talking about, like, team unity or something and, like, guys started putting cornhole in the locker room and then, like, we ended up, like, losing a game or something and we go right in.
There's no more cornhole. So, it was gone. You know, like – you know, but Bill does a great job. He's evolved, man.
He's an evolver. That's why he's been able to stick around and do the things that he's done. I mean, you know, Tom Brady has obviously helped a lot as well. But, you know, he's very in tune with evolution.
Like, I remember when it was 2000, you know, like, 14 and, like, he bring in, you know, a bunch of, like, a group of leaders and, like, he broke down to us, like, all right, guys, we got a new generation of guys. This is what, you know, like, this is how they're learning in college. This is what we're going to have to end up evolving to. This is how they – you know, they're not just like this.
They're the guys that are going to be like this and they've been on this. And, you know, so he's always thinking about that. Yeah. I mean, I do think that, like, a Belichick and a Saban, we joke about how set they are in their ways and how old they are, but they do clearly do something when it comes to the evolution of, you know, how they think and what they're changing year to year.
I mean, you saw it in your time. You went from – there was a time when you guys were throwing the ball everywhere and then you became a power-running team. Yeah. Like, my rookie year was 2009.
We had Moss, Welker, Joey Galloway, and we were throwing a bunch. We were kind of, like, lost in that hole. We were just – we didn't have, like, really an identity. Then the next year we got the two.
We got Hernandez and Gronk, and we completely evolved the game to, you know, match-ups and chess matches where, all right, if they're going to have sub-personnel on defense, we're going to keep our 12 personnel in. And if they go big boys, we're going to spread them out. And that became a trend now. Look at the same position.
I mean, he kind of started that. If you think about it, he had Gronk and Hernandez. Like, that was, like, the beginning of that whole athletic, this tight end is, like, the baddest dude, let's do these things, you know, for these guys. So, I mean, he always builds his teams to what he has.
So, you know, that's what he does. Yeah. Yeah. So, this has been awesome, man.
Again, tune in, 9.30, we're going to drop it everywhere. What's this thing? I was hearing you guys talk this – what, Billy Football was talking about he's getting on a keto diet or something? You guys – you're getting on a meat diet?
Yeah. Well, Billy, he cycles us on and off of diets pretty frequently. But he didn't do his research because apparently keto is, like, I need it right over there by that – what, is it a Colorado Kool-Aid right there? Coors?
Yeah, Coors, yeah. Colorado Kool-Aid, we're just stealing that one. Shit. We're definitely – we're killing that and stealing it.
Being a West Coast kid and then I went to Ohio for college, we always drank Coors Light and, like, that brand of beer. And then we went out – I went out there. It was, like, Miller and Bud. I was like, what's going on?
We'll bleep those. We'll bleep those. Sorry you had to deal with that. We'll bleep those.
We'll be a Colorado Kool-Aid guy. Hell, yeah. All right. Well, Jules, thank you.
And, again, everyone check out 930. Okay, we're going to finish up with some FAQs. Reminder, go watch where Jules is going to be on our Twitter and Instagram, and we'll retweet it. Fun stuff for him going forward.
Awesome interview by him. Also, before we do FAQs, a little housekeeping. Billy Football, our son, I had a talk with him last night because I was getting frustrated, and it was a situation where I didn't want to keep getting frustrated. So Billy's going to go away for a month and a half.
At the end of next week, he's retiring. He's retiring. He's going to – This is much better explained as being, like, the rumspringer. Like, with the Amish.
They go out into the real world. They sow some oats. Billy just wrapped up college. He's going to have fun for a couple months.
Come back refreshed. And at that point, Billy, you can decide whether you want to rejoin the family or be shunned for the rest of your life. The way I put it is, Billy, on Sunday, he maybe came in a little drunk, and then on Monday, he came up to me and was like, hey, I accidentally booked tickets to **** on Wednesday. And I said to myself, I'm tired of being the bad cop with Billy all the time and being the guy who's going to yell at him because then I get mad at him and then it comes through in the show and people are like, don't be mean to Billy.
He's like, well, he's half and half out right now, which I understand because it's your senior year. So I told Billy, I was like, listen, why don't you go? Enjoy your senior year. No regrets.
You can have fun. You don't have to worry about this show. You can fucking ball out. And then when you come back in June, and I told you, pick a date, that you're ready to go 100%, want it all out of your system, and then when you're back, you're ready to roll and you actually will not frustrate me.
Hopefully. It's very fair, to be honest. I've been half and half out and doing as much as I can, but also, you know, try, yeah. Half and half out.
As much as you can is not true. But also in the next couple of weeks, I have stuff like finals, doing your presentations. Enjoying your time with your boys. Family stuff.
All kinds of stuff that need to be exploring. Yeah, so here's the deal. Billy's going to go. He's not going to come to the office.
Next Thursday will be his last time in the office for a month and a half. He's not going to come to the office. If he wants to zoom in, he's more than welcome to, but we're not going to expect anything from him. That way, there's no disappointment, there's no anger, there's no frustration.
It's just, Billy's gone for a little bit. If he wants to check in, he's more than welcome to, because we love him and he's part of the show. And if he doesn't, he wants to get drunk for a month and a half, two months, three months, whatever. When he comes back, we'll be ready to roll.
I cannot wait to come back. Don't make a promise. No, don't make a promise, kid. You will get 100%.
Okay, as soon as school's over, and your month after school's over. No, no, no. So next Friday, we'll have our last show with Billy for at least a month and a half in person, and we'll do something special for it, and then we'll send our little boy off to graduate, and then that will diffuse me having to be the strict parent with you. True.
I mean, not many college kids also podcast, so there's a little bit of... Right, you're doing an incredible job. No college kid has ever had a part-time job. No, Billy's right.
The schedule that Billy's been forced to keep up between doing three-five guys a week, yes, yes. All right, but we're going to kick the hell out of draft week, right? Exactly. Right?
We're going to maybe get some shit going for draft week. Oh, yeah. We've got totally balls to analyze. We've got all sorts of stuff.
Yeah, all right. We'll have a special draft week here. I'm excited for that. All right, let's do some FAQs.
Ask for something for some high FAQ-related given the day today. What is your guys' weirdest experience high? Weirdest experience high? I went to go see...
I saw 311 perform on 311 Day one time in New Orleans, and it was my first time I ever seen them play, and when they do that show, they play for like five hours. And so being high and then getting sober and then being high again, I thought that they played all mixed up six times during the course of their set. Any time that you're high for longer than five hours at a time, can things start to kind of mold together a little bit, and it makes it an awkward experience. I would say, I don't know if eating mushrooms also counts as being high, even though it's 420, but in Madison, I walked all the way across the frozen Lake Mendota and then back, and on the way back, collected a bunch of like wood and timber and branches and thought it was like the coolest thing ever.
I was like, I'm going to fucking decorate my apartment with all these branches, and it's going to be like a fucking tree house, and then I woke up the next day, and there was just like my whole apartment was full of trees. You turned into a squirrel. It was fucking so stupid. It was so stupid.
Yeah, but it was sick. I would also add, when I took MDMA in Hong Kong, and then I just started laughing because Carlin Isles was so fast, and I started laughing so much that I started to cry because a man was so fast on the field. Hi, boys. I'm looking for advice from Billy.
Oh, he's a great one to get out. I'm a model, and I have a casting for a national brand athletic wear company. In the video, they want me to show how hard I train when I work out, but being a model, I literally only do cardio and light body weight exercises. How do I convince them I'm an athlete?
What you got to do is you got to do burpees. Yeah. But do one really good one where you jump, like almost do a worm, and then bounce up off your own. arms, you can do that because you're light and you don't have that much body mass, and that looks super athletic.
And then also do stuff like any sort of pull-up repetitions, just slice it so it looks like you're doing a bunch of them, but it's really just you doing it once. Is this a male model or a female model? Does it matter? No, because Billy was answering like it was a female model.
No. Pull-ups. He says you can't do any weights, so she slash her. Okay.
So that you can take a hit, get tackled, and then people will be like, that's an athlete. Pull-ups is a good one, though, Billy. Pull-ups is like one of those ones where you're like, oh, that person knows what they're doing. Yeah.
Not cross with pull-ups, though. I do still pee in sinks, not often. It's more out of just like, I don't know, a little bit of boredom, a little bit of like, I'll be like, doing the dishes. One thing I don't tell you is when you have a kid, there's like 17 loads of dishes every single day.
So I'll just be standing there doing the dishes, finish the dishes, be like, job well done, pee in the sink. You know, just try to treat myself. If you have a dog that drinks out of the bowl? What about it?
Just pee in the sink. What? You know how dogs drink out of toy bowls? Yeah.
