The fan Eric Chia followed paid this bet off. Last hour, unbelievable. He peed his pants live on the air. There's evidence of it at 105th of the fan.com. @Gavin Dawson on X, I took a page. The comments are pretty hilarious. Says, "Will he paid off his bed?" Somebody says, "Don't you mean he peed off his bed?" - Sure did. - He did like a champ Eric Chia follow. We got, Brian brought a shave in his eyebrows here live on air before too long. Time now though, for an addition of the finest. Here's the chief. - Thank you very much, 877-881-1053. Would you rather pee your pants at work in front of all your coworkers or shave off your eyebrows? I would love to know what the tollos think there. - Probably rather pee out my pants. - Pray, yeah. - Yeah, I think, it's a Band-Aid ripper. You know what I mean? - Yeah. - I'm done now, but brought us to be coming in studio every day for the next, what is it? Two to four months, brought us before those bad boys get back to-- - That's what they say, two to four months, yeah. - Fully restored. - Yeah, maybe not at all. - There is that chance. - There's that, there's that chance. I really just don't think we're gonna notice. I really don't think we're gonna notice. It helps that he's wearing the frames. Hey, speaking of wearing things, did you see the video of Kyle Shanahan? Quite literally undressing Brandon Iyuk at Niners practice today? - Yeah, he wore red shorts out there today, didn't he? - Yeah, it's apparently there's a dress code for the Niners with the way they practice, you wear your red jerseys, and then you're supposed to wear black shorts or pants, and Iyuk's out there in his red jersey and red shorts. And so there's like a 90 second clip of Shanahan clearly frustrated face-to-face, talking and using his hands quite a bit, clearly in frustration with Iyuk, and then Iyuk takes off his cleats and takes off his shorts and puts on black shorts. And so that is the type of respect that Brandon Iyuk has for his coach. - Practice dress code brought us. How often is that a thing? - Man, I... - In high school it was for us, our coach, we had to wear white socks, and I remember not wearing white socks one day, and he was very, very unhappy, very displeased. - I was trying to think about days of that, where in the NFL, of watching practices and stuff, I don't think I was on any teams that had dress codes like that. Now you had to have your practice jersey, had to be if you were an offensive player, defensive player. - But never like, hey, you have to wear certain shorts or socks or shoes. - No, not at all. - Nine or three, I'd rather pee my pants for two to four months straight than have to shave my eyebrows. - Yeah, this is an attention to detail maniac though. I think I like this actually for my coach. You know, I don't think I would ever have the, like the focus and determination to see something like this through, but I think if you have a coach like that, he wants everything to the letter of precisely how it's going to be, and that, Eric, is how you get a good running game with mid offensive lineman for the most part of your left tackle, attention to detail, guys. - Gotta be buttoned up, folks. - Yup. - From top to bottom. Yeah, you might be onto something here, man. You might be onto something, but I you like just this dude, he seems a bit petulant with the way he's going about contract negotiations and with the way he's walking out to practice, but he's still, still having some good games. You know, still putting up some good, some good football games there. So we'll see, I think, Debo Samuel's back practicing, so maybe they get him back. - I was thinking about taking a, you know, an upset, ticked off bad taste in their mouth. Niners team and survivor this weekend. - Back to my losses. - Man, they did three in a row last year, too. So I just couldn't really fully trust it. I guess we have good news on Duran Bland. He's going to be doing some expanded field work this week, rehabbing from the toe injury. - Don't think he's going to play against the Steelers, though. - Yeah, Steven said he didn't think this week. - Not this week, maybe next week, but he is progressing. Well, Dawson, by the way, Dak was eight of nine in the first on first down. - There you go. Yeah, it must have been first and second down then. - Yeah, he was, you want to know second down, too? - Yeah. - Together? - Yep. - He was 18 of 19 for a 187 yard. - Throwing on first and second down? - Yep. - Yeah. - Early down passing. - Efficient. - It's amazing how that can help you. Okay, let's see, 972 definitely would rather pee. My pants, nobody wants to shave their eyebrows yet. But we'll see, not everybody's built the same way. Like for some people, like wall chuck shaves his eyebrows, we're going to notice in the split second. - Very noticed. - Brodice, I really think even without the frames, it's going to be tougher to see, but certainly with the frames, it's going to help quite a bit. So two, one, four, after you shave, can you wear the Groucho Marx eyebrow and glasses set? They're asking the question. - That would be pretty cool. I'll find one of those. - I'd be open to that. Okay, cowboy observations, weak taunting call on lamb. - Right, we can all agree with that. What are we doing? What do you, what do you? - Yeah, bad call? - Bad call? - No, no, good call. - Good call. - He spun and threw the ball in the direction of their secondary guys, the banks and those guys. - Did he throw it at him? - I thought in their general direction. - I was watching the internet and spun the football. - I trust football guys, bros, because that's a good call, it's a good call. - I'll pull it up and you can see. Yeah, I'll pull up the end zone copy. I think there was an intent, there was some intent here. Was there anything that jumped off your screen more last night when watching the game than Brian Dabel's died beard? - I think he was died. - It was probably died, yeah. - It's more obvious than this little self-to-pay. - Damn. - Dabel's got a hell of a beard going right now, but it was too colorful. - It's a strong beard, but we've seen how gray that thing gets, it was jumping off the screen, that beard digressed. - That's the weight loss, man, he's like, you lost the fifth grader off his body. - He's looking fantastic, he is. - I've just seen an obvious fake beard like that since Eminem showed up the years ago at that music thing, remember that? It was like an award show when he came out with a jet black beard. - It took a while to get anywhere close to used to seeing Eminem with one of those fake beards on his face. - Wife's asking me to tie my beard, I'm like, there's no way in HE doubles, I'm doing that, okay? - Okay, let's put that on the Bet Pay-Off board for Donma Beard, look at that, yeah, now you're beard, we'll call it the Brian Dabel. - There you go. - There it is, it's on the Bet Pay-Off board. - Full Dabel. - And since you're in the pocket one already, maybe we can just plan on doing that thing live at Southern Leisure Spots and Patios and Flairmount next Friday. - Oh, how about that one? - I'm trying to think like if I was suddenly single, oh, she's calling me right now, maybe she's listening, and if I was suddenly single, like would I dye my beard? I don't think I would, you know? I just think the salt and pepper looks in. Well yeah, but I mean, that's, you know, that's not really what I'm going for, I'm just... - No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I think that is the arena of the lady, right? We're doing our makeup, we're dyeing our hair, I'm wearing a push-up bra, it's like, I don't know. Once I've dyed hair as a man, I just, I don't know if I'd look at myself the same in the mirror. - Yeah, you definitely don't want to be as heavy-handed with the coloring as Dabel was, you know? If you are going to do it. - Keep it realistic. - Like yeah. - Is that, I don't know. - Which is, it's a tough, it's a tough line to toe there. Let's be, let's be honest about it. But that jumped off the screen in a huge way last night. Let's see, what else do we have? The mic rubbing out the cramp there on Travon. They still think I've ever seen that before. - I haven't even. - You're just so fascinated by this, aren't you? - Oh, well, I mean, it's only the second time in a five-hour program I've brought it up. - Yeah, two times too many. - What I asked even about it. - Two times too many. - I mean, is that something we're used to seeing? I've never seen a player come to his own teammates. - Soccer dudes. - Rescue like that. - Soccer dudes. - Soccer dudes. - Soccer dudes. - When they're flopping around and faking injuries, they're helping each other. - They're helping each other, yeah. - Nursing each other back from their non-injury injuries. - They're helping each other fake the injuries. - Yeah. - Faking them look more believable. I hadn't seen that either. Very close bond, those two. - I'll tell you what, the Malik neighbors, Brian Dable has figured out that that's just, that we're gonna just pepper this dude, that his next gen, route tree, what is, what is, oh, okay. Brodice is lifting up his computer now, and he's proving to us with evidence that CD-LAM was deserving of the unwarranted taunting call, one of 19,000 flags thrown last night. CD looks back, and he's sort of backwards walking into the end zone, ball in left hand, and he flips it over in the direction, sure, I'll grant you, who is in the direction. - It's in the general direction. - But I don't think I'm looking, if I'm the Giants defender there, I'm still just more embarrassed with my own performance on that play than I am. - I think it's pretty weak call. - You know, if he throws it right at the dude, fine. But let these guys play, let 'em celebrate a touchdown. - Yeah, I mean, even Al Michaels was really getting after the crew last night. - He was. - Here's an example of Al Michaels in his bag. - Two minute warning, it's not a curve, we got another flag, it's like June 14th here, otherwise known as flag days, you know? - Flag day. - Oh, my gosh. - Clay Martin, looks like a referee had a central casting. - My dude was getting pretty frustrated. - Yeah, he was, he was sick off. - He was not having fun. - And I don't know how many laughs that garnered in the living rooms across America, but I still appreciated it. He was speaking on behalf of all of us there, lamenting. - Who is every play? - The ref show, dude. - Oh my goodness. - Come on. It was pretty cool 'cause we actually got to chat without Michaels in the pregame show yesterday. What an honor and the voice, like just hearing his voice in the headphones. My goodness, that is, that's my football voice. Like, that's the football voice of my lifetime. I said that, I was honest about it. - Eric asked him about the dog. I heard, last question was about the dog and he gave a great answer. Kinda said he loves the dog. - Oh, well, did he like that? - Said he wasn't a dog, he was a pet. - But that dog's made him more. - Yeah, he wasn't a pet lover, but here we go. - This is how we signed off with Al Michaels and Herb Street's overbearing dog. Michaels that, did you know Kerb Street was it bring your dog to work guy when you signed off? Did you know that? - I did not know that. - Yeah. - See, and that's it. Like, I don't know what you're talking about. Him going on some spiel of loving that dog. - He's like, that dog's really, he's changed his mind. - That's brilliant. - He's super smart. - Yeah, he talked about how he navigated the windy, maze-like hotel hallway. Made him behave, talked about how beautiful the dog is. - Him and Herb Street came back after a drunken night and the dog got her back to the hotel room. - Man's best friend. - Not one, but two mentions on the pregame show last night for just showing love to Nick and Sam's here locally. And we know Al Michaels affinity for red meat. We know that he gets a steak in the booth during halftime of every game that he calls. And so we also know that he's anti-vegetable. So I was wondering, what's your go-to side dish then with the steak there, Al? - Well, number one, it would be at Nick and Sam's, as you know. - Amen. - And I want to shout out to my man, Sumir, who's come out with a book called Raising the Stakes, which is great. The top three side dishes would be, you know, I think a twice baked potato would be really good. - Strong. - Strong. - I'm trying to get off French fries, because they're very dangerous to one's health. - But delicious. - What are all the potatoes? - But delicious. You know what, I gotta tell you something. The twice baked potato, maybe two of my three, very rich. - Can't name three. Here's the rest of the vegetables. No, I thought O'Mac and Cheese was gonna make an appearance, didn't you? - I knew he was just gonna go straight potatoes on it. - He seemed so simple. Just steak and potatoes is that's his thing. - Man, Malik neighbors, I don't know how they're gonna keep him healthy there. It was unfortunate with the way that game ended for him last night where it felt like he got KO'd there for a second, but the volume is ridiculous. He's on pace right now for 221 targets. I believe the current record for most targets in a season is 205. - Is that a guy, Cooper Cup? Or was that, what was Puke and Cuba? - I think it's Marvin Harrison. - Oh, is it? - Yeah, it's Marvin Harrison, dude. - It's the original volume one. - The senior one. - I think he, but like Malik neighbors, he lived up to all the hype. He was spectacular. Dayball is moving him around all over the place. Nine catches on pre-snap motion there, which is the most by any player that next gen has ever seen when they've been working since 2018. So they're moving him all over the formation and he was running all sorts of different routes and he was getting open at ridiculous rates. And then he comes up big like even on that fourth downplay. Versus digs, you know, it's just like, it's fun to see a young guy who, he's coming up big and big moments as well. But that dude was at all that he has been cracked up to be. Last night, just very, very impressive. And he's gonna be a handful. If you're a quarterback looking around, going, man, I wouldn't mind being the guy that replaces Daniel Jones. If I get to throw the football to that, dude. - Yeah, definitely. - Now, I did want to shout out Marsha on kneeling for a couple of good plays. And then also just on like the kickoff stuff, the special teams, Marsha on kneeling, overshown, Lippke, Wanye, all those dudes showed up on the special teams. The screen defense is still subpar having, having troubles there brought us unless you have any disagreements. Maybe you felt like they took steps forward, but it seems like that is a play that if the play caller has the right timing for it, you can hit the Cowboys two or three times a game on a 15 plus yard, little, little deal to the back. Or it's Alvin Camarion, he's going like 50 yards for a touchdown, but that still needs to get improved there. But overall, defensive tackles playing much better was fantastic and getting some other guys going from a running back standpoint is, I think, always going to be a good move. And then let Zeke be the finisher. I was hoping to see the Cowboy offense be able to kill the game at the end. You can kind of make up for the games in striking distance. Go out there. If you score a touchdown there before having to settle for the field goal. - They tried to, I mean, they tried to try to kick a field goal to make it what a eight point goal. - Oh, it made it an eight point game, which is still not really killing the game. You get a touchdown there. It's now a 12 point game with three and a half minutes or whatever. And now the offense can go and feel like, hey, the defense still had to go back out there. - No, I understand, no, I understand. - Just would have liked to have seen that. George Alabama tomorrow. Gentlemen, how we feeling? This is going to be, this is going to be big. The line has moved quite a bit. It was supposed to be Alabama as a home dog, but things are moving in a different direction here. It's going to be the most bet game so far this season betters jumping on Bama being a home underdog for the first time since 2007, Georgia winning would make our Saturday. That's a quote from a trading manager at BetMGM. But it's gone from Bama being a two and a half point dog at home to one and a half to now Bama favored by one. - That's a pick 'em, man. That's a pick 'em, right? - Well, I think you want to load up on Georgia here. If the public is flying at the Bama. - Is one point going to be enough? - Is this sharp money or public money, do we know? Be interesting to find that out. - That's a good question. I don't know. - That's a pick 'em, right? One is a pick 'em. - I have a hard time believing that the coach following Nick Saban is just on a countdown until it totally blows up in his face. I think he can probably hold it for a year or so, like the Barry Switzer effect, but not much more than that. Okay, thank you, Chief. In addition to the finances in the books, I think I just did my bet payoff. It's called have your spouse get into a car wreck while you're working on the radio. - Oh, yeah. - Oh, wow. - Hopefully everything is all right there. - There you go. - Probably gonna call the Frankles here, maybe D&M leasing at the break. I know, I don't have to go. I don't think so anymore. I'm gonna give her a ring here in just a second. We're coming back with a double bet payoff edition of the Expressway and Eric Nadell's gonna join us.

It's time for the one segment of the week where you can call in while intoxicated or in the process of catching a buzz, what you're drinking and what you're thinking is right around the corner, load up the phone calls. Now you wanna sound off about what we saw with the Cowboys. Your chance to do it here on the phone lines here. On your home of the Cowboys, Eric Nadell said to join us here. It's brought to you by Tylock George EyeCare and the Expressway is presented by the on-time experts and a good afternoon, Eric. How the heck are you? (upbeat music) Do we got you, sir? Can you hear me mad, dog? Eric Nadell here on 1053, the fan. And he joins us, I believe from Los Angeles. Right, Eric, how the heck are you doing tonight? - I am in the booth at the Big A in Anaheim, absolutely spectacular day here, 78 degrees, not a cloud in the sky, mild amount of smog today. - Oh, right on, right on, sounds like. We enjoyed our time there a couple of years back when we were at Cowboys training camp and got to go down and taking a game there. It was nice for an older building now. Of course, we want to get your first thoughts on your experience last night and saying goodbye to one of the classic buildings there on the West Coast. - Yeah, it was a pretty powerful experience. You know, I figure I've done between 350 and 400 games at the Oakland Coliseum. And I saw my first triple play there. I saw my only inside the park Grand Slam there, Nolan Ryan's sixth no hitter. An altercation where Frankie Francisco threw a chair into the crowd. You know, all kinds of crazy things have happened there. And, you know, I love it. I really enjoyed working there. I know it's rundown and I know they've had plumbing issues and wildlife issues, but I always enjoyed going there. And the fans were always really into the game. No matter how many were there, whether there were 5,000 or 30,000, the crowds were always really into it. You knew they were real baseball fans. And it's just such a terrible tragedy that Oakland is losing that team that, you know, I was very sad all day and I had very mixed emotions about the game itself. You know, I didn't feel bad at all about the angels, about the ace winning that game. - No, no, I was hoping that they would, you know, the best possible experience for those fans. I know what that is like. From your perspective, how did they behave themselves throughout the evening? - They did great. You know, two people ran on the field in the late innings and they weren't trying to attack anybody or destroy the field. They ran on the field and they were escorted off. There were a few objects thrown on the field, but really not an excessive number. And after the game, you know, we'd been led to believe that everybody needed to get out of there as soon as possible. But the fans, it was like a love fest there after the game. The fans stayed for, well, we left an hour after. A lot of fans were still there. Everybody behaved. You know, fortunately, the Oakland players did not heed the advice of Major League Baseball security people and run to the clubhouse immediately. They stayed on the field. Marccotsay addressed the crowd. You know, in a true heartfelt manner was a wonderful moment. And I think the Oakland fans, you know, didn't live up to that bad stereotype that, you know, people were basically trying to convey that, you know, these are bad fans or, you know, their hoodlums and all that kind of stuff. They definitely disproved all of that yesterday. Hey, Eric, I was asked this question last night. And what would be one souvenir you could take away from that ballpark if you could take anything? You know, I'm not into saving stuff. They have a great playing surface. You know, Bruce Bocey always says it's the best playing surface in baseball. And I guess if I wanted anything, it would be, you know, grass and dirt. But what am I going to do with it? You know, I know a lot of people have taken jars full of dirt. You know, I don't have a place in my house for a jar full of dirt from the Oakland Coliseum. So I don't really have anything that I would take from there. Things I love about that ballpark, you know, are not things that you can walk off with. Sure, I saw where yesterday it was very emotional that they had their groundskeeper, who... I've been on the job for 31 years and setting up the field the one final time. And the unfortunate thing about all this is that there's a lot of folks that are going to lose their jobs over this team moving. And you know, it's people who work in the stadium obviously, but it's also a lot of people who work for the team and just aren't going to move to Sacramento or haven't even been offered the chance to move to Sacramento since the minor league staff there will be doing a lot of the jobs, you know, that people had been doing in Oakland. So it's, you know, it's tremendously tragic for those people. I don't know about you, Eric, but I might want to take some of that dirt and some of that California grass bringing on back to Texas and grow some myself, you know, in the backyard might be kind of nice, but I did want to ask you since it's Friday on an unrelated note what you drinking. Oh, geez, oh geez, sorry. Eric, I'm in the middle of a bet payoff. I could be sprayed at any time and Chia followed just unloaded on me. Okay, but I want to know what you're drinking and what you're thinking, brother. - Well, you know, we're in California, I've been drinking green tea today and in the afternoon, iced green tea, which seems very reasonable. And what I'm thinking is I'm going to be going to a lot of concerts over the next few weeks, you know. I'm going to have that battle on a nightly basis. Do I want to go see a show or do I want to watch a major league baseball playoff game? And it's going to be tough. - Starting with this Wednesday when Marcus King and Brittany Spencer are playing at the South Side Ballroom in Dallas, that's a big one for me. I'm definitely going to see Lawrence next Saturday at the House of Blues. They're one of my favorite bands and I haven't seen them since they were up in comers playing in a small club in Deep Elm. And then my first Kessler show, I think, will be October 9th when I go to see the heavy, heavy and Dylan LeBlanc. But there are some great shows coming up at the Longhorn Ballroom throughout the month of October and I'm going to be very busy enjoying music. - We'll enjoy it, sir. We'll, this is our last conversation. Hey, whoa, this is our last conversation until the next season. Eric, and we love you, buddy. - Go Rangers. - Thanks for having me every week. It's been a lot of fun. - Cheers, buddy. Wow, that was very disrespectful to the Hall of Famer and this broadcast position. It is time now for what you're drinking and what you think it at 877-881-105-3. Let's get your Cowboys phone calls or whatever else you'd like to talk about. - How about them, Cowboys? - I'm drinking a 20-ounce Diet Coke and some tap water that's spritzing down my face right now. I tell you what, though, guys. I'm going to say it, I'm not ashamed to say it. The Cowboys haven't done Jack squat, okay? Bad team, when they come up against any sort of sophisticated run game, a good offensive line, a good quarterback who can run, not Daniel Jones, who looks like a baby deer in human flesh, okay? They'll look pathetic once again, very soon. Okay, what you drinking, what you thinking, Brian? - I am currently not drinking anything. I am getting ready for this eyebrow shave, but what I'm thinking right now is that I was really happy for Masi Smith. I know when you look at their situation and him and the pressure that he faces the last couple of years and everybody's kind of called him a bust. And last night, he played at a really high level. He played to the level that they drafted him, some of the stuff that we've seen on tape. You know, Zach, when we watched that tape for the draft and how he at Michigan made plays. - The power. - The power is back. - He played like a Hall of Fame, by the last time. - Yeah, he was, he was, he did an outstanding job. So really happy for him. Hopefully he can build on that going forward as they get ready for the Steelers. - Beautiful. - Drinking coffee, drinking water. Really, really fired up for tomorrow's Tour Day DFW. I will be planning the flag at the Whataburger location in Denton. I think I want to bring my kiddos, drive around campus and just relive some fun memories. - Dude, that's a great idea. - For a great idea on the group on this corner. - Yeah, it'll be great for the kids. - Yeah, I'm really- - There's a lot of throwing up on that corner. - I'm looking forward to that, man. And the first like Sunday, off in a while. - Yeah. - So football Sunday. - All right, making red zone plans. - I got a date with Scott Hanson, baby. - Yes. - Seven straight hours. (mumbles) - Yeah, I'm sivin' on some high quality H2O. I will be in the Carrollton location tomorrow. Stop number two, so come by, say what's up. I'm with ya. The run defense for the Cowboys was much, much better. Now can they carry that over against a team that's gonna challenge you in Justin Fields and a running quarterback? I am still very concerned overall about Mike McCarthy and this offense. I think you're seeing a lot of the same stale tendencies that we started the season with a year ago. That got corrected after the bi-week. I think you see moments where, okay, the play action's back. You need to add some more motion. The run game and the offensive line, I think will come along as the season goes. But you look at last night, you'll take a win in the NFL at a vision win. But how many teams on the schedule are they beating playing the way that they played last night? There's a lot that they need to improve on if we are going to take them seriously as contenders moving forward. - This is good stuff, we'll chuck. There's currently no lines open. We'll be getting to these phone calls here in just a second. Let's go into the Pimp Cup. - Oh, yeah. - Relusions. - This is him downstairs, how is everybody doing? And everything. - Happy Friday. - You doing all right, Dawson? - Yeah. - Yeah. - Yeah, that is. - Get him. - Yeah. - Got him. - Are you doing good? - Tell you what, speed him is actually really fun. - That's high velocity, H2O coming at me. - Yeah, it's high velocity. (laughing) - That was broad as unloading on that. - I just want to say what I can't do. - I can't do it. - They got me surrounded. - Hey, who's asking about Coach DeBore? - It's probably me. - That was Dawson. - Oh, yeah, okay. Well, a total called in. It was like, hey, yeah, no, I don't want to do it. - You disrespect Bama? - Yeah, I don't want to do any drinking or thinking, but I want to let you know that he didn't just on the radio right now, need to do some research. Coach DeBore's wanting to win in his coaches' fall time. That fool right there, whoever that fool is, I don't know. You guys do a good job other than that one fool. - Yeah. - I'm gonna let you know about it. - Roll damn time. - Roll damn time. - Roll damn time. - Tell me you're gonna, you figure out how to win on the West Coast. Bring that down to the SEC. (laughing) - Come on. I'm in the middle of a bad payoff. If you're not watching live at any moment, these guys can hit me with a spray bottle and they're unloading. This is like five or six rounds per second. - Can't believe you asked. Put the pickle juice in there too. - Yeah. I think you got a switch on that. - Yeah, you should have did that. - Mm. - But you're drinking what you think in Lucius? We good? - Oh, I've had water. Half a gallon. I'm running a bit behind, but I've had half a gallon, more than an average person in this band. - That's better. - Yeah. - I'm not thinking anything, catching up on some movies and series of stuff this weekend, you know? - Right on. - That's all right. - That's weird. - That's weird. - Just chilling, you know what I'm saying? - Yeah. - Yeah. - All righty then, 8-7-7-8-1-1-0-5-3. We'll get to LA Live coming up here in about nine minutes. Line one is Polo in Garland. You're in the nation, Polo. - Have at it. - What's going on, y'all? Hey, I wanna do a big payoff, which is all, if the Cowboys being as dumb as they are with Jim Jones is their owner and general manager. We were the group about the next year or two. I'll do I, y'all are free tattoo. Now, Broder, you're such an analyst of the NFL and you know, let's count. Okay, let me ask you a question. Next year, they gotta pay Michael Parsons, right? - Yes. - If he works a hundred million dollars, be honest. 'Cause I don't know if he just do, do squat. If he don't get a set, he's not at the plate. The other thing, he may one tackle behind the line and start with a running bag. And that's it, but other than that, I don't see any J.J. Y in him. I don't see any bolster in him or nothing. He's not worth a hundred million dollars, but unless you say what you think about him, Broder. And Martin Smith, you shouldn't cut the layer, man. I can't believe you actually made a tackle. I think you did two of them. And SMU, y'all better get, y'all, I know I love my law horse, but I'm gonna present Dallas. Forget GCU, you up tight everybody in Dallas, how about GCU? That's Fort Worth, this doubt. Come on, SMU, y'all better be Florida State tomorrow. What's up? I gotta do this here. - There he goes. - Hello, I'm Garlin. - I gotta do this girl's tattoo, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah. - She just standing there waiting, twirling her thumbs together as this dude just cusses out of the radio station room. - Hey, coming here next Friday and give me a tattoo for my next bed payoff though. That'd be fun. - That would be fun, I think. - Line three is John. You're in the G-Bagnation, John, what you drinking, what you thinkin'? - Hey guys, drinking a scotch in soda, holding scotch, just some water right now. What I'm thinkin' is y'all might not have seen it last time as a catboy's on, but army looked 4-0. It's refreshing to see some good old Smash Mouth blue collar football, no NIL, no transfer portal, just disciplined, old fashioned tribological football. And I think one of the army neighbors gonna run the table and end up in the CFP this year as a Cinderella story. And before we start talking trash, just remember even our cheerleaders can hit a target of 300 yards on iron site. So love y'all, peace, bye. - Wow, okay. - Say what the, and then army, army as well, they've beaten, they're 4-0. They've beaten 4-straight teams that have the nickname owls. I learned that last night. - They're 4-0 against the owls. - Owls, they played all four games. - They played that many owls teams out there. - Yeah, yeah, the temple owls. - Yeah, Florida land, yeah, Florida land. - Oh, yo. - Yeah, but they've won. - Yeah, that's right. - They've won 4-straight games against owls. They beat the rice owls. - So, yeah, I don't know if the owl has a great history that would be feared. Like, I would think the owl is over a win. - The majestic wise owl. - Yes, yes, yeah, the actual-- - The hell of a predator, too, by the way. - Amazing, yes, bad-ass predator. - Yes. - I guess I'm unfamiliar with the owl's game. - From where you were at the owl's game, boy. - Put that owl take. That's true, right? - Ah, skates, skates, skates, skates, skates. - The owl football teams have not lived up to the tenacity of a real-life owl. - That's a bad take. - Lehigh, how about the Lehigh owls? I did not know that. - Yeah, decent in basketball. You want something with a little bit more gravitas, you know what I'm saying? - Did they be-- - Lehigh's known as the engineers. - They'll be Lehigh. - Lehigh. - They got two. - If Lehigh's-- - Three straight then on these owls and I must-- - Yeah, at least that was ball-sect. - Gosh! - I thought it was four straight that they'd play. - Are you perpetuating ball-sects in a football field or anything like that? - Lehigh's the mountain hogs. - This is pretty misinformation. - The mountain hawks. - Yeah. - They used to be the engineers, I thought. - Well, you don't know what the hell's going on. - Okay. Three straight, okay, three straight, okay, three straight. - Not so proud this week are you black and gold being. - Oh, man. Nah, man. That was a disappointing week, man. Much to my chagrin. - Can't even help the Cowboys a little bit. - What the hell, dude? - Yeah, it makes me happy. - Yeah. - Hey, we tried. But yeah, I just pulled into the driveway, so I'm about to start off with two shots of rock and roll tequila, followed by a few cold beers. And I'm just thinking, man, I'm trying to move on past that game last week and we know face to dirty birds this weekend. It's a division game, so I know it's going to be tough. - There's some hate between those two. There's some hate between- - Oh, yeah, trust me. - Yeah. There's a lot of hate there. - More than the Cowboys. - Yeah, a lot of hate. - I think we're going to win by 10, at least. - 10 point up. - Go ahead. - I didn't mean to cut you off, sorry. - No, man, I'm sorry. I was trying to get to- - For cutting him off. - Yeah, I scored him again. - Scared him again. - Watch him finish your thoughts. - Slow down there, pal. - Yeah, I don't think I'd break this mic. - Yeah, man, but we'll win by 10. And the song I want to recommend is I get the Jungle Love by Steve Miller. - Oh. - Y'all have a great weekend, fellas. - Woo hoo. - Love it, love it. - I was thinking about the time when he said that. Time, Jungle Love? - Yeah. - Oh, yeah. - Yeah, exactly, yeah. - Jungle Love? - Yeah. - Oh, wheel, wheel. - Yeah. - Yes, dude, that was killer. Okay, line five is Anthony. You're in the G-bag nation, Anthony. What you drinking? What you thinking? - Yeah, I'm drinking some water. You know, just got off of workout, driving with UPS, but I need to tell you guys how to pronounce this word. If all of you guys can repeat what I say, ready? - Yeah, I'm nervous. - Okay. - B. - B. - B. - B. - B. - B. - B-Ria. - Oh, the tacos, here we go. - B-Ria, face back. - B-Ria. - B-Ria. - B-Ria. - Here you go. - B-Ria. - Wow. - B.Ria. - Thank you, Anthony. - B.Ria. - B.Ria. - He was all mean about it. - At eight, seven, seven. - I don't blame him for being mean. - We've been taking him off for two years, trying to say that word. - We've been seeing the butchering that. - B.Ria. - That's some damn good tacos. - Yeah. - Can't correct with some nutrition. Can't correct with some love. - Yeah. - It's always got to be like a little smart ass about it. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Say with me now. - Kinda dunk on you. - Wouldn't be a good educator. - Yeah. - Gotta dunk on you. - B.Ria, on you. - B.Ria, line six. You're in the nation. What you drinking? - Yes, sir. On you from DeSoto is finally good to actually talk to you guys. - What up? What up, bro? - What up? So what I'm drinking, what was your tub list? 'Cause there's seven over there. My house doesn't have any blue molds, which is like my go to. It's the most bang for your butt, bro. - Really? - Yeah. - Every time everyone starts giving Gavin Dawson's his credit, I'm a Dawson stand. - For what? - For what? - For what? - If I could spray you right now, I would. - For what? - He's been telling us for the last four years. That boy's organization, as much as we love them, they're not interested in winning right now. - Okay. That is, yes. Give him credit for that, yes. - Yeah. - Absolutely. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Yeah. - They're engagement farming. First of all, trying to get those clicks and the views up, time spent watching. - I have to say, I agree. - They're trying to win along the way. - You've been saying it as a fan didn't want to believe it, but hard not to believe it. - I've been also saying for at least five years, they need to run the ball. - Stop the run. Come on, cheat. This is my moment. - Oh, you jumped off the running bandwagon and you jumped back on. You flip blocked as always. - I think Jim finishes up here with what you're drinking and what you're thinking, brother, what you got. - Brothers, let's get this out to you this afternoon. I like a lot of what y'all been saying today, drinking whiskey, of course. - Yeah. - Well, hey, bro, this is missing this. Don't come back. You just scoot on over to polo's place and he can tattoo you something else. - Yeah. - Oh, yeah. So thank you, brother. - What's up, man? - That's what I'm thinking about. I really am glad chief did not eat any asparagus. - No kidding. - For lunch today, because you boys would be, you'd be dying out there in that, in that, in that office. I'll make you, I'll make you peace. Think really bad. - Right. - Cowboys. Good. Mossy. Good. And great weight fellas. I just hats off to you and, and really, really enjoy the week, thanks for the joy. And, uh, on behalf of our solo, we love you and have a good weekend. - So Luke, there he goes. Big jam. Love you, big jam at eight, seven, seven, eight, eight, one, one, oh five, three. That'll conclude in addition of what you're drinking and what you're thinking. Time to go into the pit. - Hey. Hey, I was a little slow on that one. That's LA live. - At the end of the day, hats off to him. You know what I mean? - Hats off to him. - Hats off to him. - I've got a question before I start LA live. I've got a question for you, cats. Uh, let's say you want to go watch a game somewhere, right? A bar or whatever. Do you want the commentary up on the loudspeakers? Uh, do you mind if they have the music going or do you do not care whatsoever? - I would like, I like to hear the sound. - The cat, the, the commentary. - Oh, I hear the commentary. - If it's a big game, I'm going to go watch it. - Yeah. - It's our game. - Yeah. - I want the sound, right? - Yeah. - If I'm just watching random games, I want the music. - Yeah. Yeah. Okay. - Give me the commentary. I had to, like, do some waving at the general manager. Like, yo, we want to hear the commentary, bro. - Yeah. - Nobody cares about Mumford and Sons right now, B. - I want to hear how Michael's busy about these rest. - Yeah. - Don't, what are we doing, baby? - All right, let's get into a feel-good Friday edition of LA Live, right into the great. Rick, join! ♪♪ ♪ But I'll let you smash ♪ ♪ That's the time you smoke ♪ ♪♪ ♪ Fire up this funk ♪ ♪ It'll make you dance with some of everything ♪ ♪♪ ♪ Everybody get high ♪ ♪♪ - I'm pretty sure it was Diddy that posted a picture of himself. I don't know where he was. Maybe it was New York, maybe it was not Miami or something, but he was on a bike, and he was just riding his bike, and then 50 Cent commented, "You know he's smiling, 'cause there's no seat on that bike." [ Laughter ] [ Laughter ] - Oh, my goodness. - 50 Cent is funny, and he's not the one. - That's why I don't play with 50. He started in his game trolling. How to rob 50 Cent is making that PDD documentary, sold it to Netflix. I can't wait to see it. Imagine that. Imagine making a documentary about your rival, in a sense. And you know you're tearing him down. Oh, my gosh, 50. This is LA Live for Friday, September -- what is it? 27th. Oh, my God, September, where do you have to go? Why are you going so fast? September 27th, 2024. It is a feel-good Friday here in LA Live. Enjoyed the Friday vibes. ♪♪ Yeah, we made it, folks. Stay fair, Texas Weeknd. Yeah! ♪♪ For the love dogs this weekend, two people. Mind your speeds. Don't drink and drive. Use your blinkers. Use your blinkers, man. My man Dawson, his old lady, got into an accident during the show. Y'all are bad drivers out here. Let's be better at this. Let's pick up a flow, you know what I'm saying? If you're going too slow, move over. Oh, my God. And then, yeah, about that blinker thing again, I say that because I see you people trying to get over in traffic. And, you know, you're looking back over your shoulder and there's a car not letting you over. Yeah. That's me. That's me. I'm not letting you over until you turn your blinkers on. Yeah, I'm hungry like that, fam. Turn them blinkers on, all right? I say that the same. Mind your speeds. Don't drink and drive. Keep your emotions in check. I don't want to see you on Dallas, Texas TV or DFW scanner this weekend, okay? In other words, don't crash out like this crash dummy here. Just playing real life GTA in LA. Real life GTA. Man hijacks a Metro bus in LA. Pistol whip to driver. No. Fadily shoots one of the passengers. Wow. Okay, it was like one o'clock in the morning. I didn't know the buses run that late. There you go. But there was two passengers on there. He shot one of them. This crash dummy crashed out, changed all types of lives. What a jerk. Yeah, he chased them down. Well, he put the high speed bus, chased down. Figaroa. It really wasn't a high speed chase. It was kind of slow. Yeah. But it was down Figaroa. We go down there and come to the airport. Okay. Let's get to that real quick. Well, that slow speed pursuit started just before 1 a.m. about six miles away from here at Figaroa and Manchester in South LA. That's when the suspect carjacked the bus at the gunpoint. The bus driver still behind the wheel during the pursuit. There was that assault on board. LAPD officers using spike strips to get those bus tires flat. It eventually worked. That driver then stopping here on Alameda near the arts district. Certainly a frightening situation. So again, a lot of developments. LAPD spoke just minutes ago. We have the one man found dead. Well, he was shot multiple times. He then died at County USC Medical Center. One other passenger was able to get off the bus at the conclusion of this along with the bus driver and the suspect taken into custody. Come on, my God. What are we doing, man? Come on. It wasn't even worth it. Where are we living now? Well, people are taking buses and hijacking them and then going on. You're not going to get far. It's a big ass bus and they don't go fast. Yeah, and people on the bus that have no, I mean, they're not part of this man. I'm just riding the bus trying to get home. What are you doing, man? I remember playing that audio of a Metro bus in Atlanta getting hijacked. And those people pulled out their phones and recorded it. Yeah. Get a little hold off for the reminders for Tolo's. Dicking his bag. Holy crap. Oh my God, he's got a flat tire. Y'all all of them on that side. Oh my God. Shitty little lamb. The cab county. Holy shit. - Holy shit Atlanta police. - Oh my God. - Oh my God. - Oh God almighty. - God almighty. - God almighty. - God almighty. - God almighty. - God almighty. - Yeah, you just want to ask these guys on the, like right before it happens, like, what is your end game here? - Yeah, thank you. - How do you imagine this plays out? - Yeah, what do you think? - It's probably like an end to wealth. - What is it called though? Geez, listen, they live in GTA out here. - Yeah. - Well, figure it out. If you know what you think about that street. - Yeah. - It's a blade. - Yeah. - It's like Harry Hines here in Dallas. They made me some street walkers out there. Ladies of the night trying to make some money and a philanderers, and it was another word for a pimp. - Pimp? (laughing) - I can't think of it, no. No, there's another, this is a sexy word for it too, but I can't think of it. - Is it French, some French word for it? (laughing) - But there was a pimp out there. He was checking up on his ladies of the night when that hijap bus flashed by on Figaroa. - Oh my pimpin, somebody stole the bus. Somebody stole the bus. - I said, oh my pimpin. - Oh my pimpin, they own the bus. What? Oh my pimpin, they didn't stole the metro issue. They didn't stole the issue. Hey, say no, bitch. Come to some of my pimpin though, bitch. But they didn't stole the bus. What? - Jeez, it's not even a real world anymore. - No. - We turn into a real life video games people. Do not crash out this weekend. Here's a weekend morning. - This weekend safety briefing. Do not add to the population. Do not subtract from the population. - I'll be the one. - Do not end up in the hospital newspaper jail. If you do end up in jail, I'll just have his thumb in the quickly. - You better do it. - Don't get advice. - Man, speaking of crashing out. G back in the day, we do it every weekday here on the Fanta at 2.30 if you see anything floating out there. Don't be afraid to hit me up. @luckyloochesp on social media. Lucius Alexander on Facebook, but you can follow us all if you find G back nation on Twitter. Our winner is an uncle. He crashed out at the funeral. Tired of all the gossiping. - You know that. Y'all know me. You ain't like you ain't never met me before. You know that. You know I'm mad as hell. Right now. - Right now. - You're right now. - I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

No, I'm not playing. - Not playing. - I'm not playing. - No, I'm not playing. - I talked to my mom daily. And listen to me clear. I heard everything everybody said about me if you're not rushing down here. Listen to me, man. You gotta power me, meet me in a parking lot right now. I ain't playing, but listen, listen.

Hold on, I've been waiting to say this again. - Come on, man. I'm not mad like that, I'm just saying. (laughing) Hold on, spoon, I'm not mad like that. Not mad like that, not playing. How exactly would you describe your, I'm ready to calmly wolf everybody's ass. - Yeah, meet me in the parking lot, if you want to get this crack, this. - Just gentleman-like ass whooping you've ever seen. Drummer Tommy Lee of Motley Crue, his wife, comedian, Brittany Ferlin, I believe. They rescued their dog from a coyote attack. - Oh, nice. - She rescued the dog straight from the coyote's mouth. - Wow, yes. - She did her thing, bro. - I'd love to have that on my resume. Just read it, hers was straight instincts. - This is good as that guy that saved his little doxon from the gator. Remember that? - He just went in the water to get it. - Yeah, yeah. He kept a cigar in his mouth for everything, bro. - Yeah. - He went on down there and got that. - He was the guy I'm gonna stop. - That's so, that's so pimp. - Yeah, he was filming the bus chase thing, him and his wife. - Yeah, yeah. - Yeah, I like that guy, bro. The wife of Motley Crue, drummer, Tommy Lee, rescued their dog from the grasp of a coyote in a terrifying video captured on ring camera. The video shows a coyote charging at the two dogs in the backyard of their Woodland Hills, California home then running off with Nina, the many long-haired English dash hound. Her husband, Tommy Lee, briefly appears in the video, acting like a little bitch. - Hey. - I was just playing. He was inside on a couple of cats. - That little bitch. - He was inside. But he came outside looking hysterical and everything. - A terrifying coyote attack caught on security camera video with the Woodland Hills home of rocker Tommy Lee and his wife, Brittany Furlong. There are two small dogs by the backyard pool and the coyote quickly snatches Nina, a 10-year-old, long-haired English cream dachshund with the dog in its jaws. The coyote tries to leap back over the wall as Brittany sprints behind. Brittany says Tommy Lee was inside the house on a conference call when he heard her screams. He's seen here on camera after running outside to help, but Brittany had already faced off with a coyote and pulled her dog free. - Bad ass. - Yeah, she's a bad ass, bro. - That's awesome. - I kicked the hell out of that coyote though. Me and my dog, I got a pit bull. We'll jump to that coyote. - Yeah, I feel like that coyote was really slacking. Like he thought he was gonna sit down there right there and eat. - You gotta get. - No, you gotta go. - You gotta bow his bro. - Take it from the coyotes that took Jessica Simpson's little dog. - Yeah. - You gotta run. Get back in the woods ASAP. Dining the ash, bro. - Hey, hold up. Turn that larynge on up, L.A. I got you, bro. (cheering) 91, 91, 91, 91, 91. Y'all be careful out here this weekend. You might catch me at the fair. Catch me in this DFW. Go into all the different water burgers. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Check that out on @GBagnation on Twitter. I'm gonna leave you with a baseball drill 'cause we got a baseball game tonight. How about this one? - Did you know that the dimensions to a baseball field are just whatever? The field's always the same. 90 feet to each base. But the outfield, they just make it up. To hit a home run in Fenway Park, Boston Red Sox have gotta hit that ball 302 feet. Houston Astros on the other hand, 436 feet. That's a 45% difference. And no one ever talks about it. Like maybe there's a reason why the Red Sox have been to 13 World Series. (laughing) - You see that excited NBA coach. Hey, great news guys. We're playing in Chicago this week. The rim's there, only five and a half feet tall. (laughing) - Pretty good. - Yeah, I like that. All right, Logan and Crete. Don't rise. My name is Lucius Alexander and that's my time. I'll be back Monday. Hala. Thanks, L.A. What are we doing next, Wole? - Oh, it's too little around the bases.
