And when you don't get the rest you need, your whole day is thrown off. That's why it's so important to choose the right mattress. Sleeping on a purple mattress is truly a unique experience. Because purple mattresses are made with a gel flex grid. The gel flex grid is an innovative material that moves with your body to relieve pressure in areas like knees and hips. And support in others like your back. It feels soft where you want it and supports where you need it. Purple mattresses instantly adapt when you move. You don't sink in and get stuck like with memory foam. And thanks to over 1,400 air chambers in the gel flex grid, you will sleep cooler on a purple mattress. Purple has a wide variety of mattresses from the original purple mattress to the Restore Hybrid Collection. It combines gel flex grid with coils and the Rejuvenate Lux collection, the height of luxury with over 112,000 to five star reviews to prove it.

Can he continue to ride it? We'll get into that in a few, but joining us now, it's a Hall of Famer. She's Lucy Burge. You know her. You love her. Lucy, Bill Belichick hated media during his time in the NFL. And now that he is one of us, he can't get enough of it. He's doing a podcast now. Yeah, this is wild. Good afternoon. Um, yeah, now he is the media and I've seen some media members not too thrilled about that. Who ones whom he treated with disdain during his time. But I do see some differences here. So he spoke to media members the way he did. One to cover the team, one to report on the team. And I don't know if he's going to be doing reporting per se. So I see a difference here and I am not. I don't think there is a double standard here. I think he is a member of the media. I feel more for entertainment and infirmative firsthand informational purposes. I feel like there's a there's a difference here with that. But I think he is enjoying doing Pat McAfee and doing media appearances. And so that led to him wanting to do this podcast. Um, and he, you can tell he's getting enjoyment out of it. And he really loved doing it because we never see him smile. Yeah, he's doing stuff like this. It's crazy, but this makes me think what he will be doing on this podcast makes me think he will return to coaching after this season. And he will return well, as soon as possible. I mean, as soon as the job opens up, perhaps maybe with the Cowboys, something like that, maybe. But with this podcast, he will be kind of like as a few coaching. What I assume it to be is like a video game, but like simulated coaching. And he clearly misses it. He clearly misses football. He clearly wants to stay in football. And I think he will be open to coaching jobs after this. And I don't see him this as a sign that he will retire completely from coaching in the NFL. No, and he has a cheerleader helping him along. So we, we, we endeavor to see what, uh, what, what, where Bill Belichick ends up. When he ends his, his media, uh, tour, um, I'm not sure if this made its way to your radar loose. Um, I hadn't heard about it till my buddy Carl Dukes was telling me about it on the podcast. We do together in the huddle. Um, so there was an interview with Gerard Mayo recently and he was asked about like how helpful Bill Belichick's been in the transition or, you know, if Bill's been a resource for him and he basically was like, uh, yeah, I haven't, uh, not so much like haven't really heard from him. Um, do you think Bill Belichick is, is just kind of hoping that the Patriots remain in the muck because then that way maybe it absolves him a little bit or like at least they didn't get better, you know, when I left, cause obviously it got worse when Brady left. So do you think he's secretly rooting for it to get even worse with him gone? Oh, absolutely. And I, if I was Bill Belichick, I would too, because they fired you, they said and made a fool of you. They, yes, I absolutely think that he wants the Patriots to win zero games this season. Um, and I would too, if I was him, I think Tom Brady, when he went to Tampa, he wanted the Patriots to be bad without him because he wants to want people to, and as they do, uh, refer to him as, uh, as the one, the one who saved the whole region, saved the whole team, uh, from disaster, which is what happened. Everything fell apart as soon as Tom Brady left. And I think Tom Brady got massive satisfaction out of that. Um, and I don't think that's even a question really. I mean, of course he loved it. The very first, uh, play of the Buccaneers game, Brady's very first game with the Buccaneers. He ran in the touchdown like Cam Newton did earlier in the day, um, that day, they know he knew exactly what the Patriots were doing every single week and kept tabs on them, every single game. Belichick, I think we'll be doing the same thing and rooting for them to not win at all. If I was Bill Belichick, I wouldn't talk to draw a Mayo at all, but lose any advice, but nothing because they, I would say if I was Bill Belichick, I was like, well, you fired me. So you don't need me. So clearly you don't need me anymore. So I, I would not even, I wouldn't even give any advice at all. Shouldn't this be a little different? Like hate craft, right? And clearly he despises craft. I mean, that was one of the subplots of the Brady roast, but like Mayo busted his ass for him as a player. You know what I mean? He's one of his guys, like Mayo led his locker room, Mayo led his defense. Mayo rose as a coach under him, like Belichick's all of his coaches have failed. Like, couldn't he root for one of them to succeed? Like, couldn't he hope somebody on his family tree isn't an object failure? What about that part of it? What about the human part of it where it's like, Hey man, that guy busted his ass and helped me do what I did. I could at least help him a little bit. Like I can at least return his phone calls. You would think, but then you got to Rod Mayo up there calling his introductory press conference calling Robert crapped Thundercat and like, we're best friends. I have this tremendously weird nickname for him and so they're great friends. So it seems Rod Mayo is a team Robert craft and I mean, obviously he's the guy who. Yes, but if I'm Belichick, above everything else is I was fired and helping. Rod Mayo at this point helps Robert craft. So absolutely no, I am not giving any advice to the Patriots. And I would say, you know, a cut tie done ties with the Patriots because he was just fired. It got to be still raw, even though I think what he is doing is, I mean, is that a more fun job? Maybe. Does he still get paid a lot? Yes. Should he be probably happy with what he's doing? Yes. So there's a revenge factor in that maybe, but also if this is true that Robert crapped is telling teams don't hire Bill Belichick, I am disgusted if I am Belichick and I have want nothing to do with the Patriots organization as long as Robert crapped owns the team.

It's inside access on the fin. Blood feud. Now, I'm going to go in a vastly different direction. I apologize. Obviously I wasn't here last week to talk to you. I know this happened last week, but I've wanted your opinion of it. Trash talking in sports is, it's huge. I mean, it happens in every single game. How quantuals dig on Reese Maguire, not suitable for work. If you haven't seen it, just Google it. That's like next level timer, right? That's an all timer. Number one. Top of the list of trash talk in the history of sports, because this, the Reese Maguire, what he did is something that I frequently wonder, do other players mention it to him when they think of when, because this was in the news, it was in the New York Post. It was maybe it was probably international, you think, because of the team you played for at the time, but I wonder if players, is it the first thing they think of when they see him? Clearly it is. Clearly it is. Because Cal Quantual had that ready to go to his face, not only said it to him, but said it on television. Television. This is exactly what I wanted to just know for a fact, if this is something players ever bring up to him and said it very clearly, you don't have to be a lip reader to see what he said to Reese Maguire, maybe, and the players reaction to it on the Red Sox players, where they were waiting outside of the home team clubhouse to fight, I'm assuming, and they were waiting out by the buses reportedly, and there was reportedly some concern because both teams were leaving, the Rockies were also leaving, so they were both going to the airport, so would something pick up at the airport, fight-wise. This was the greatest trash talking I've ever seen, ever seen, because you had this opportunity to save this to this guy, and everyone was like, "Oh my God, I wonder if anyone ever mentioned that." They do, they think about it, and they know, and they are ready to go with, from the clouds yelling at him, "I don't know what led to this, but I think it will make for a very good sequence of events in the Netflix show that will be following the Red Sox's music and Netflix cameras, I'm assuming, caught all of this, so I would hope, I would hope so." Smooth transition from that into your dong predictions, you are queen of dongs, what is your pick today? Yes, I am hoping to regain my crown from my bet clips and bat clips co-host, Jake Asan, 2 p.m. to 230 eastern every day on the Beck Hill network, he has hit multiple home runs in a row, it was up to five, I believe it's a little dip in that yesterday, maybe not, but I am hoping to regain that crown with Bobby Whitjou here to hit a home run. He has won home run in his last three games, 19 this season, in the month of July. He hit 4.89, batting 4.89 last month, which was the fifth highest average in a calendar month in Major League Baseball since 1930, so he is making a little bit of history in July, I hope we can carry it into August. He is facing Kyder Montero, who gave up three home runs in his last start, and five over his last two starts, so I think Bobby Whitjou near can hit a home run tonight. Yeah, I like the royals on the run line in that game as well. Seth Ludo, I think they're eight and three in his road starts, and they've won pretty much all of them on the run line. Very nice. More in many runs without Riley Green. Check out loose some of the right handed bats of the guardians, what they do against left handed pitching at home and then check out Trevor Rodgers road splits, not Miami where the ball doesn't carry. I think it's eight home runs and 52 innings pitched on the road. I think righties are have like an OPS and nine something against him on the road. Ramirez could be a big addition, Stephen Kwan, maybe for two hits, even though he's lefty, he destroys lefties, especially at home, just saying Naylor. Yeah. Yep. Guardians are 24 and eight against left handed pitching. She's she's a Lucy Burge, queen of the dongs, Lucy. Thank you. Thank you. Talk next week. Thank you very much. You guys are the best.
