Oh, well I did something like this, I just went to the Atlanta United game, that was fun, you know they had to win to get to the playoffs, so they actually won two zero, that was a good game, so they're MLS squad, they're MLS, they're MLS, okay cool, all right that makes one sense, I was like what, that's like the Chicago fire, yeah, exactly, exactly, man how was your weekend? Man, I chilled, I relaxed, it's been a long, like September was long, getting my wams on, it was a lot of crazy news, this happened, depressing news, people dying and shit, the puff shit, I just wanted to chill out, so I chilled out and then shit, it's been busy since I got back, so I'm, and then plus the Bears won though, so that's really all that matters at this point, that I didn't say what I said they was going to win by at least 14, so I'm happy, and we're going to talk about this a little bit more. Yes sir, and that means it is time for the local hour, so there's the local hour, I keep forgetting this, it's my duty supporters up, as Nikita just said, and the Nikita just said, I got all the pics done, I said I wouldn't, I said I wouldn't go cut you off on the video, which I have not done yet, but yeah we are here, local hour sponsored by nobody, shout out to everybody watching here on Instagram, Twitter, sponsor the local hour, sponsor the local hour, somebody chucks pieces hollering me on 130 ones, I buy by too much y'all pieces come hollering me, we need to talk, but we got it, it's 50 Mondays, second 50 Mondays in the row, as you can see I have the 50 Mondays shades on, even though I had these shades on on Friday, but the point still remains, victory Monday shades, you know what I'm saying, it's time to talk about this game, I really enjoyed this game yesterday, we all talked about, well Bayne talked about, Jay Hood talked about on the Friday show about having a homecoming type of game, like we wanted to have the homecoming film, we paid a bum ass team, and they pretty much get blown out, I remember one specific homecoming game when I was a Curie, Curie High School, uh, over on the southwest side, I always said you know it's the interesting about Curie, Curie is literally like the dividing line between the south side and the west side, if you come out the opening entrance door, over there in Archer, you make a left, you out south, you make a right, you out west, and once you officially get over that little train station, not train station, but train tracks, over there on, uh, under there's that Kenzie, it's Pulaski, over on Pulaski, you officially out west, once you get over that little train tracks, you know what I'm saying, that's how it kind of feels, by my way, my first homecoming game at Curie, I didn't play by the way, I was not an athlete, but it was a homecoming game, we played our Irish rivals both in high school, which is on 79th Street, and I always said they didn't like us because we had things like computers in our high school, and we didn't have a, we didn't have uniforms, the niggas was mad at us because we had uniforms, you know what I'm saying, he said we call that muddy waters over there, that's hilarious, but we beat them, I think it was 63 to 3, and our starting quarterback, I'm not going to say his name, he arrived, he passed away like 15 years ago, but I started quarterback, actually got his ass worked outside, at the after the end of the homecoming dance, Bogan came up there and flooded buddy, uh, in the back, and I remember I was leaving the dance, I was like, oh, and the crazy thing was, I knew some of the niggas jumping them, I went to, I went to, I went to grammar school with niggas, and went to both, Bogan was walking this, that's one where I grew up, so, uh, I was like, well, what in place is I grew up, I always say when the people say, where from the south side, yeah, I think I lived all over themselves, that one of the places I was at that time, but that's what we think when I think of homecoming game, and yesterday had a homecoming game feel, not just because of the score, there was not celebrities at the game yesterday, it kind of felt like, uh, you know, midi MSG, Chicago MSG, you know what I'm saying, like, you know, you go to the next game, you see all this, the New York celebrities, I always say the difference between next games and later games, next games are New York celebrities, like the games are just celebrities, like you'll see little knotted caprio pull up, Denzel pull up, you know what I'm saying, niggas, we like, high, high, high, you know, and next game, you'll see the same nigga, like Ben Stiller, Tracy Morgan, John McEnroll, you know, all the niggas. Spike Lee, Chris Rock. Spike Lee, Chris Rock, you know what I'm saying, like, Chicago yesterday, Derek Rose was there, you know what I'm saying, D Rose had the whole family, uh, I posted a picture of him at Caleb Williams on the 7th at the Hallows page, which was dope, a lot of people said, oh, he got on Justin Fields jersey, you know, he had personalized Derek Rose jersey, let's use our heads here, people, uh, that he had, he was there, Angel Reese is tall and fine in person, okay, like, tall and fine, you know what I'm saying, like, she smelled good, uh, and she was there and randomly Captain America, Anthony Maggie was there, he was doing that, he's a fucking phone, and they were the same friend. No, but I think he's doing something with the NFL, because he's been at different stadiums every Sunday. So I don't know, I don't know what kind of thing he's doing, but he's been a different game. He was at Detroit last week, uh, he was in, like, an Atlanta game, I think we before that, so I don't know if he's gonna sum with the NFL. He always got him. Yeah, but he was there and Ari Gold, my man, Jeremy Piven, Ari Gold was at the game. Oh, he was back at the crib. Okay. Back to the crib. Ari Gold was there. Uh, I didn't see him backstage. Well backstage, well, in the, in the, the, the, the, the, the back area by where the field is as usually what you see the celebrities, they usually wait to meet the players and stuff. They had, uh, this is how big Caleb celebrity's gotten already. Derek Rose and Angel Reese were waiting to be this nigga. And I knew that Caleb was doing something because DJ Moore came to the podium and I was like, we only talked to flukes and Caleb about the games. And DJ had both his kids with them and both of them, his kids and hilarious, but it just kind of had like a home coming game type of field yesterday, man. And the crowd was great. Uh, underrated, you know, street that I feel like nobody's talking about, even bearish fans. The bears are eight. No, yeah, Rome, as soldier field, soldier field is really starting to become home field advantage. You know what I'm saying? And just, it was just good vibes yesterday. Before we get into the actual nitty gritty, just tell me what y'all thought about your overall feel of coming out of that game. I'll go to you first, man. Um, man, it was what I thought it was going to be. I thought it was going to be a situation where this was a homecoming game. You got a team that you should beat. Um, they had a lot of injuries on their side. So the one thing that trying to say is the right way to one thing that I probably could have been nervous about or anybody could have been nervous about is playing down to your competition. That's the one thing that the bears have done over the years is play down to their competition. So I definitely was nervous at the fact that that could possibly happen, but it didn't happen. Um, I think a lot of people saw that first run, um, that first touchdown run by Hubbard was like, Oh, and we go with this shit. Um, but the bears rolled off what 27 straight after that. Um, so they did what was needed to be done. You beat the teams that you needed to beat. Um, but you also have to look good doing it. You can win, but you got to look good doing it and Caleb look good doing it. So I was happy. Before we get the dots, I'd have to answer something real quick in the chat real quick. Alex named a couple of Kerry facts. Now I got to talk about real quick. The orange line death trap. Yes, my nigga. I have seen many fades and get distributed at the, uh, at the Pulaski orange line stuff. I've seen, I've seen a nigga knocked out by a woman. Like, I'm not going to say the niggas name, but the nigga looked at one of my homies like, dude, you're going to hit me for? I'm like, what you, what you, what you going to do? You're not shooting out. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, I actually, I got shot one, I got 2006. I got shot at three times in a three month span, not three months. It was three weeks. I'm going to take that back. Like, she got you? No, well, one was meant around shooting. No, one was meant me and Mike from pillars. We got shot at on a nine, uh, because we make sure one of my homies, uh, make sure he got to his grandma house and he wasn't familiar with the area. The niggas tried to rob us. I was like, Hey, I'm gonna, now I'm knocking at least one nigga out. Like that's why I told Mike, I'm like, I'm knocking at least one. I'm, I'm leaving him with something. It's two down to six way before Denzel said them. I'm leaving him with something. And then when they circling us, uh, I shit you now. I know it sound like a same rush out of black truck pulled up door open and you can ask Mike to take the same story. That was trying to get the niggas that was trying to rob us. And so that's the first time. The second time was at the orange line stop. This is what it was an actual race war. It was, it was really GD versus the Kings, but if you're a black, you are magna GD and all the stuff happened over there. Also, Alex said botches, $3 pieces. Now that was a freshman kicking spot, but we also knew that she was a freshman if you went over there. Once I knew that I stopped winning, I stopped going to, uh, see, I'm saying botches. He said, what was I doing to hunt? I wasn't in the hundreds. He's gonna save you nine streets. Only time I'm in the hundreds is when I'm with my cousins. Besides that, you would not find me in Rosa, my boy. But, uh, we'll go back to you, Dante. What's your overall feel of yesterday's game? Uh, I'm with Ben. I felt good because one thing we want to see them do is meet the teams they supposed to be. And that's not, that has not been a staple of Chicago Bears football. Like they will go in against the worst team in the league and play like dog shit. So we got to ask me about it. We lost that damn Broncos game last year. Oh, yeah. Terrible. Yeah. Perfect example. And then like you said, at first three and out, you were nervous. It was all shit. Here we go. But no, they picked it right back up. Caleb made some really good throws. Um, he's getting better with his accuracy down the field. Um, he only had nine of completions. Um, and I think this is, this is really what we want to see. Obviously, it's the panther. So I agree when I say I don't put too much on it, even though Jake Daniels has been beating up on bums and y'all acting like he's the greatest nigga ever. We're not going to talk about that. But, um, he really got into his groove. Uh, didn't make too many mistakes. Once again, we saw the command at the line of scrimmage. He knows this offense. You know, um, we, we may not always be happy with the play calls, but I mean, he's taking command of this offense and really made it his own. And, um, we saw the chemistry with DJ. That's what we've been wanting to see. That's, this was really the first game that you saw them to on the same page consistently. And even though, uh, I think at the end of the game, he missed him again for it. So like, they could have had another touch now, but I mean, seeing them build that rapport was dope, seeing Keenan get back out, there was dope. And, uh, yeah, like I said, more than anything, it's because we are so used to the bears playing down to their competition. Going into this game, seeing them actually just take care of goodness. And after that first quarter, it began was pretty much over. I was like, okay, this is what I want to see. Yeah. And I think, you know, it's the number one, uh, thing I hate in sports, not just with the bear, not just in football, but in sports. I hate when you play a bad team. And then when you beat said bad team, he was like, Oh, boy, it was so and so you're supposed to beat them. If you're going up against a half team, you supposed to treat that half team like the half team that they are. And the reason why I think it's also doesn't matter. He's a rookie. These NFL squads, we just saw the Panthers, the Panthers just beat the bingles. No, I still think the bingles is all the way they wanted for right now. I still think they're better than what they regularly are. So, you know, whatever, but it's show growing them. So they beat them, you know, they big competitors since, uh, Andy Dalton became the starter straight up beat down. If the bears were apparently one or loss, we wouldn't have heard the end of it. So that's why I don't want to hear that. Number one. Number two, like you just said, Dante, Jane Daniels, and I'm not trying to hear the hate out light, Jane Daniels. I'm a fan of Jane Daniels. I think the bull, I think, I think he's just, I think he's good. Uh, and two, I think he's going to be a real solid quarterback, but he gets praise for beat every, I don't think one team he's beat has one more than one game. So y'all problem up with doing that, but when Caleb does it, and I know Mike, he's not here, and I'm like, oh, people hate Caleb. That's exactly what we saw. I turned on national TV this morning to see what the, what the national view was. And I thought it was, it was decent, but that's some of your old competitors. We both do events, but they lost it been a problem. So that's why I don't want to, I don't want to hear that. It's the NFL, you know, blowouts don't happen like that. That this a team that, you know, they're bad, but they did what they're supposed to do. They didn't want this game 20 to 17. We wouldn't be sitting there with the same optimism, man. When you're Caleb William here, rookie in your pit start, either still guys that have grown men, you know what I'm saying? And that's just really what it comes down to. The, the bear's tax is a very real thing, man. But I want to talk about, you know, couple weeks ago, we were on here and we were talking about man, should we change expectations for the season, you know, the way things are looking and, you know, Mikey stood 10 toes down. I ain't changing shit. Like I'm keeping same amount of wins I had, you know, it's a little rough right now. And, you know, I'm not going to lie. I, I, I, I bitched out a little bit. I dropped my, my wins down a couple, a couple. I'm here to tell y'all people the season is back on for you back up the season back on. And what am I hanging over? We are back. When they say I hang over, that's what we are. We are back. I'm not going to put too much dip in my chip over over this wind, but it's even less about the wind and more CIA plan. Caleb's getting better. Shane Waldron's getting better. The defense, and we're going to get into all this and, you know, more, you know, unique detail in just a minute, but it feels like everything's coming together. And if we go off how everything has been with this team, you know what I'm saying? Dante, you funny as hell. You look at everything, you look at everything that's been going on this team from literally OTA's, it follows the same, you know, order or same flow, you know, OTA started. Caleb started a little slow. rookie mini camp, you know, mandatory mini camp. It was the whole thing of cadence, cadence, cadence, training camp start up a little rusty. I think he gets better each week you're seeing, he's getting better, he's getting better, he's getting better, he's getting better. And the way, I feel like the weight of the players in general, and just that shoulders just feels so much lifted by winning these last two games, because I said on the show two weeks ago, when they'd lost Andy and Napolis, I was like, there's a big difference between two and two and one and three. And I really think the band is new, then this is why I got to give even folks a little bit of credit. We gonna sit up here and shit on them as much as we do and rightfully so. You got to give them credit. That locker room really likes people. No matter how bad fans feel, that locker room, love flus, they respect flus. This is not a situation where at the end of naggy's tenure, niggas like, man, shut your lance, shut your lame ass up. No, they rock with flus, man. I really think that flus, the way he's going about stuff is good. He is learning step by step. Now, we're really going to see who flus is, who Shane Waldron is in the gauntlet of hell, as I've been calling it. That's what the next month is about preparing for the gauntlet of hell. That's what, no, that's when you're scheming up. That's when you know who has the bad coach, who has the bad offense coordinator, because you're raking NFC North, the quarterback, not quarterbacks, but coaches and offensive coordinators, both flus and Shane Waldron are coming dead last. So that's what really figured out. But I got to love how they adjusted and really backed up and also love what I heard in the post game. You know, Caleb said it, DJ said it, flus said, in the locker room, the guy's like, yeah, you know, we won, but there's a lot of stuff on the tape. We messed up, we're going to have to look at on that on that on that ride to to London. Also, last thing to the love, they're flying to London tonight. Five years ago, they flew on a Friday. And then if you watch that game, it looked like they got flown out on a Friday. God tell you that you know how to look. There we go. That was me. Nigga, last year, I mean, 2019, I got there before the Bears got there. That's how bad it was. Like, I don't know what they were thinking with this whole, we're going to be comfortable that practice had at Hollis Hall. No, get your ass to London and get used to what you got to go through. Yeah, yeah. And that's the thing too, like they're leaving today. And I thought they're leaving on Tuesday. I got the practice schedule. Oh, I won't be there on Wednesday, but you know, y'all enjoy that. But that's good. They'll get a full week. They can be able to practice some London, get on the on the sleeping schedule, get their whole bodies ready. And this is going up against the team at Jacksonville. And we're actually going to preview the Jacksonville game today. We're going to do a full week, six preview as well, since we will not be on the air on Friday. But Jacksonville's been doing this every year. They're like the home team. Even though this is going to be a Bears home game, like Dante, you know, better meet by her. There's a lot of bears fans of London. So yeah, it's very the brand is very strong in London. The brand is very strong in London. And it's going to be a lot of Chicago niggas. I know 15 niggas alone, myself, who goes? I know it's going to be a lot in there. But, uh, babe, my question to you, I know you said you were still sticking with your, uh, when Total Boy is the season back on for those who doubted. Um, I think for those who doubted, they're going to wait till that Washington game. Um, there's going to be people with the Bears when, um, on Sunday, they're still going to be like, yes, the Jacksonville Jaguars and stuff. So I think if the Bears win this game, they come into the game with the commanders, what, four and two. Um, so that's, they win that game. And that's when I think people are going to turn the corner. But right now it's still going to be some skeptics out there. Don say what's your fill on that? Uh, it's bad. I think, you know, this, well, I am 60 40 on it being bad. This five game stretch is going to determine if it's back or not, because if we go four and one, then my 12 wins are still very much attainable. Um, but I do think this is, um, a stretch where you have to see this team get into a rhythm offensively. Cause I can, I'm at the point now where I can stay with confidence. I'm not worried about the defense. They're going to do that. They haven't even helped. Yeah, they, they haven't given a what more than what? 16 points? What's the most points we've given up this year? It's not a lot. The, the Houston game, right? Here's the, yeah. 20 a dove, a dove. And I'm fine. I'm like, NFL offense should be able to score 21 points. So if my, if my defense gives up a dove, I'm cool with that. So, uh, at this point, this is distract for the offense to really get into a rhythm. And I think they're going to do that. So, um, for me, the season is definitely back on. I think, uh, 12 and five is very attainable because of the defense. And because of Caleb, I mean, he's not getting the national praise that we wanted to get. But as I always say, as local fans, compared to national fans, we're watching every snap. So you really get to see the progression. And if you're being objective about it, Caleb has gotten better every game, like every slide out. It's, it's nothing you could, it's nothing you could say to deny that you've gotten better every game. And that's all we wanted to see. I know we wanted to see him come out quick and really light it up. That's cool. He didn't do that. But at the same time, sitting here at three and two with opportunity to go four and two headed into the bar, I'm, I'm okay with that. I'm perfectly fine with that. So, uh, I think the season's definitely back on. And like, if you're a bearish fan, you should really be excited. When's the last time? Obviously, Justin and Mitch have both had their game where they lit a bum ass team up. We've seen that the last two quarterbacks, but just seeing the way he's handled things and he's processed things, like, I don't understand how you could be a bearish fan and not really be excited about what you see from Caleb, because he's giving you everything that we expected to give him. I've got a couple stats. One, you brought up the defense. Here's some defensive stats for you. The monsters in the midway are back. The first and the end of film fumbles, second and passing touchdown a little while third and interceptions. Fifth and points allowed. Seventh and total passing yards allowed the eighth and sacks ninth and total yards allowed 11 games in the row of 21 or less allowed points and only 32 second half points have been allowed in the year 2000 and 24. That is for, um, you know, the defense man and how they've been doing me. Talk about Caleb and that's a, that's a perfect way to get into it. Caleb's passer rating each game. If you start off on week one against the Titans at 55.7 pass rate, week two against Houston, 51.0 pass rate. We three against Indianapolis, 80.8. We four against the Rams 106.6 this week, 126.2 pass rating. Uh, and that's just good right there. And you know, uh, Alex says number of Russian defense last year that that if there's anything I can nitpick the defense on, I want to see them get a little bit more cleaned up on the Russian defense, but this, this defense is incredible. And we're going to get into the actual, um, defensive line in a minute, but I want to talk about kills for Mr. General, man. Caleb, this is his, his best effort. Now, he has over a thousand yards already. It's five games into the season. Caleb Williams always has 1,091 yards as five touchdowns, four interceptions. This is second 300 yard passing game, um, in five weeks. Do you know how many 300 yard passing games that Justin feels not only had with the bears, but has in his career. Do y'all know the number of that? Um, when we said it again, Justin feels how many 300 yard passing games does he have in his career? One two bang hit on it too. He's got one against one of the bears he threw with 320 something last year against Denver. We had four last week. Yeah. And yeah, when Liberty lost that game, he threw a crazy interception and then last week against Indiana. So both of those games from the losses. Caleb already has his second and five games. Um, that's incredible. You want 20 or 29, 304 yards, two touchdowns would have been more of DJ would have caught that gimme of a first down, which DJ said in the press conference, he was trash for that. Um, I just love what I'm saying, Caleb. I think that I've even seen some people who were very progestering, saying, oh, what, what, uh, ice cubes on, uh, straight up Compton. My bad. I must be tripping. Like everybody starting to come around. And like I said, he's a rookie. I'm not saying he not ever going to mess up again. I'm not saying it's not going to be a game when he don't look like a rookie again. There's going to be better defensive lines he's going to face. It's going to be better defensive. He's going to face Jacksonville stinks, but that defensive line is way better than we saw in Carolina. I mean, that office of line for the Bears look like the nineties Cowboys. That's how bad that pass was. You know what I'm saying? And it gave him a lot of time, but the fact you're seeing it and he's getting better and better each week. His command the line and like, this is not hyperboiled. It looks real Tom Brady is real. Drew Brees, real, uh, Peyton Manning for beer, full rookie in his fifth great game. They have that much control of the offense. I think it's amazing. And not him and DJ are finally clicking the deep balls are clicking. It's just start to get real, real scary, man. That's why I love to see him. Ken and now I know that the hills on fire is going to be like that probably for the rest of the year, but he had a good game and I complain last week about not spreading the ball out a lot. They spread the ball out, man. And Caleb knows where he wants to go. We scanning the field, which I ever seen from a bear's quarterback and I can't even tell you when last time I seen the bear's quarterback scour the field like that. And I just really, really love what I'm seeing. And there's absolutely no doubt in my mind that this kid is it. I'm giddy when I watch it like and that's just something that is rare, man. Uh, bam, what'd you think about kale's performance last night? Um, I thought it was good. No, I give him a B plus. Um, mainly because it's the Panthers. Um, but you know, you want to know what I love about his performance. He was picking on the best player. Yeah. Like he was going after, he was going at the horn. He was on his ass. Um, and normally, especially as a rookie quarterback, you try to, you will see people that will try to stay away from the best player, especially, um, if it's a quarterback, you'll typically see them straight away from that person. So this definitely could have been a Rolmo doomsday or a Keenan Allen game. We even a co-commit game. Um, but I said last week and I meant that this was going to be a DJ more game. DJ Moore was going to get over a hundred. I say 125. I was wrong by 20, about 20 yards. And what about 25? He caught that third down. Exactly. If he would have caught that third down. Um, but that's what I loved about the performance. He was aggressive enough to go after the best player on that defense. He was not going away from JC Horn. Um, outside of that, he was, he was, he was pretty accurate. Um, the, the yardage. Um, also, if you look at the record books, I think he's, he has the most, most 300 yard games by a rookie quarterback in Bay's history. Look how much it took for that to happen. Oh my God. Wow. That just shows you the lack of quarterbacks that we've had. It's competence. Right. So with that being said, no, man, I thought it was a good performance, a B plus makes me excited for the rest of the way. This was what he needed for his confidence building. I'd say, what'd you think about careless performance last night? It was great. Uh, I give, I give him a B plus. I think, you know, um, it's one of those things where we just talk about him getting comfortable. Him, uh, just adjusted to the speed of the NFL game. I think, you know, he had his Justin moment. You know how Justin was saying shit was kind of slow. Uh, I remember on Hard Knocks when Caleb was like, uh, practice is harder than the game when they play Buffalo in their preseason game. So I think those first couple of games with him really getting activated to what's really going down and you're not playing against practice squad guys and guys is not gonna make the fucking team no more. And these are the, these are the warrants. And so I think, um, he's having an adjustment. And one thing we know about people who have been, you know, labeled as phenoms who are actually that who actually have that talent, they had just quick. And, um, it's kind of like what Caitlin Clark and the VMBA this year and like, first half of the season, you saw her struggling, but then eventually the speed is slowed down for it. She was like, Oh, no, I could really do my thing. And she started cooking. And I think that's what we starting to see with Caleb. Um, this five game stretch helps us because these teams aren't as good as the teams are gonna play on the back end of the schedule. But at the same time, this is perfect because it's what you want to see from a guy like Caitlin. We need to see him in a rhythm and these teams that we're playing now will help him, you know, further, you know, show even more of the graphs he has on the office and being, you know, when you're planning against a team that's not as good, you can catch things about, okay, now we're gonna run this hot route. We're gonna do this. We're gonna call out of this play. So seeing him get comfortable doing that as we get into the tough part of our schedule is what I really want to see. So I think his performance was really good because what we want is to, again, for, I know we talk about Mitch and Justin, but this is just a Chicago various problem. The playing down to your competition, that's something we've seen on top lives, not even with the quarterbacks. So I think for him to sit here and light them up, like even with the Colts, like we should have won that game. Um, they still had an opportunity to win that game. But I mean, what you saw Sunday is what you want to see against a team you're supposed to be. Stay in the pocket, you know, doing your thing. He's making passes. He's spreading the ball around. He's going through his reeds. Like you said, we saw the last two quarterbacks we've had been won three quarterbacks. So to see a guy, and you can actually see him snap his head to like one, two, three. All right, back to one. Like that's, that's something different. And it's, it's great to see. And so I think like I said, his performance, I'd give him a BB plus. And I think you're gonna start to see more of this because I mean, at the end of the day, the talent is undeniable. You, you, you know, it's there. You know, the arm is there. You know, the process is there. You know, the pocket practice is there. So it's really about what we do around, about how we set up for these games. And so it's, it's, it's looking good, bro. I was actually out of here. I know it's the Panthers. So I'm taking it with a grain of salt, but I was really excited about what I saw last night. Yeah, I'm, I like I said, I'm not taking it with a grain of salt, whatever, because it's, it's because not a reason I say I'm not because you look at the other, at the, at the Colts game, that team stinks too. That defense stinks as well. And he threw with 300 yards of stuff. I liked he did good. But he was looking real. It was, it was a mixed bet. I think, bang, you said yesterday, you send a group chat. This is, this is a good 300 yard game. That's why I'm not taking it with a grain of salt because these are still NFL teams. And he's a rookie like, he was like, year two, year three, I'm like, this is Panthers. Like, but he's a rookie. All this stuff is new to him. So that's why I'm not really like, you know, Oh, it's a Panthers. Like, no, man, I love what I saw now. You got to keep doing it. You know what I'm saying? Like, we're not going to give you praise for this. And you go out there, you stick to join up in London. And you know, you got some, a lot of good games coming up. But I just love to see how I see where it's going, man. And I want to talk about his pace too. He's on pace for 4,000 yards right now, which would be the number one, the best franchise history. And he's on pace for 22 touchdowns. You know, everybody sees a straw standard. That would be one more pass and touch down the season. Shroud had last year. So that'd be good as well. Let's talk about Shane Walger. Shane Walger got a lot of the heat of the releases to see the starting rightfully. So it's offense did not come out the way any of us expected platter to play calling didn't make sense. I started to notice the change of Shane Walger in the second half of the Indianapolis game where the play started to make more sense. He did really saw the game playing last week. I think game playing last week is not to do too much to make sure that, you know, it's kind of like a not with a game manager, but I think the emphasis was just to not mess up to do our game. And this, this week, I feel like you opened it up a little bit. A lot more deep shots. Everybody kept circling those terrible graphs. And I really hate what all 22 and passing sheets and wide receiver sheets have done. Those are not for regular fans. I'll stand on that on that on that soapbox, man. I y'all don't even know what you're looking at. So we have everybody doing that. And that looks that taking the deep shots. DJ looks great. He's learning that really wasn't in the middle. Maybe a player to die then light, but you know, offensive, uh, coordinate, especially in today is overthinking it. You can see that from college all the way down. It's not going to be perfect. But I think he's really, really stepped up. He's dedicated to the run. Didn't rent a ball 32 times yesterday, which, which, which was really great as a team. Yeah, they get carried at 30. If you take away Caleb's five carries, there are 34 carries between, uh, you know, the running backs, um, with DeAndre Swift and Roshan Johnson. I love Roshan Johnson being the goal I'm back. I'm glad they were able to get DeAndre here because he really, really dominated on that one drop. And the referees took one of his touchdowns when they gave me back to him. I love the duck Kramer thing. Do what you got to do. Make that be a tooth push. Do what you got to do to get the ball in the end zone. I think getting that running game, especially when it gets colder, colder in Chicago. I know Kayla mentioned the win in the post game. It's going to get worse. Um, I just really love how I came and I give Shane Waldron. I give him a strong beef for what I saw. I feel like he's growing as well. Once we talk about that, Kayla was rookie. It's the first time he's worked with a rookie. And I really think that there's fans. I know the thing all he likes to say is we're not happy unless we got something to complain about. But if we're gonna be up here dumping all flutes, dumping all water, we got to get credit to them when they actually do do good things. Well, I didn't see any bad time outs from yesterday. I thought that both of them really handed it. Uh, babe, what would you give? What did you think about Waldron's game plan and what grade would you give him? Um, I give Waldron an A. He had a lot to make up for. I would give him an A. Um, we didn't see any random ass screens that was going on. Um, you, you, you saw the difference in the office of line in this game. And I'm not necessarily gonna say is because the, the pass rush for the Panthers was huffed because they got through a couple of times. Um, but Caleb just has a pocket awareness that is unlike we, something that we've seen, um, in years for the Chicago Bears. In fact, I have not seen a quarterback with the pocket awareness that Caleb Williams has had in the Bears uniform ever. He's, he's willing to sit in the pocket, um, and, and get out if needed, but he's willing to sit in the pocket. Um, but it just seems like that the team was very well prepared. You, you didn't see a lot of pre snap penalties like you did in a Houston game and in the Indianapolis game. So the team looked like it was very well prepared. Then the game plan in general, um, you saw, you saw people getting, getting around, like it wasn't, it wasn't stagnant like we saw, um, those first two weeks of the year. Um, even a little bit, um, in that Rams game last week too. Um, but we did start to see some improvements. So now I, I will give wall doing the A because it seems like this was the most prepared Bears team on the offensive side that I've seen in a while. Uh, Dante, man, when you're thinking about warders before it was yesterday, I agree. I would give him an A. I think, you know, you need to take advantage of these type of matchups. And it's like, this is really a game where it's like, okay, we should win this game. Let's get out here, set the tone and really, you know, have our way with this team. And that's exactly what the Bears did. Um, I think, you know, the swift touchdown speaks to fools being a players coach because after that first touchdown, when he got us down in field and they took him out and gave the ball to Roshan, I was like, I know he pissed. Yeah, it's like, no, fam, I don't got us all the way down this motherfucker. And then y'all not gonna let me score. So, you know, at the end of the second half, when they kept him in and they kept giving him on the ball, okay, this is what you do. This is how you really build your guys up. So I think that was a really good game plan against that defense. And this is what we want to see. We need to see you again, putting your best players in the position to succeed. And that's something we've seen over the last two and a half weeks. Well, it's really like the formation has just been, okay, I got my three best receivers out here. I got cold over there. You know, it's not, it hasn't been a lot of the mix and match and I'm going to try to bring, bring Bayless in and run a reverse and I was going to the dumb shit. We're not doing that. Put, put your best pay, put your highest pay players on the field and let them perform. And that's what you're seeing. So I think that was a really good game plan. I was excited about what I saw. And that's what you want to do in terms of building momentum. That was the perfect game for that putting up 38. And I was 36, I'm sorry. And you put up 36 and you have potential for more. That's the thing. They could have put up 40. They could easily put up 40. So that's promising. And I think this is what you want to see going forward, just that positive momentum and putting your putting your all principals in the position to succeed because you know what the defense is going to do. Like if you can go out there, like this team can go out there and score 21 to 24 points. It's damn near, not a game we can't win. Yeah, that's a good game. This team is going to be very, very hard to beat. Very hard to beat. That defense ain't letting you score more than 21, bro. It's just not going to happen. But those old establish and I think the thing that stood out to me is look how they look how they defended CJ Stroud and Matthew Stafford. Say what you want about that team, see them in thought darts, like some of the past this new through last night against the bills was crazy. They haven't seen that check. CJ through one decision with thought types, they eat through one in Nico Collins. If you want touchdown, they've met Stafford and check. So I'm not really worried about that on a quarterback side. That's what's good to me. And that's why they can score 21. Put up 21 again. You know what I'm saying? It's going to be very hard to beat. Like Alex said, that dumb, the clipping play. First of all, it hasn't been called on the bears in 21 years. Number one number, it was just a bad play call. Caleb should have had his Russian touchdown. Caleb. And one thing I also love too, I know Caleb doesn't like running, but he used his feet yesterday. He got out of a couple situations, which I, but one thing I got run out of bounds, like when I was one player, he got knocked over. Well, need you to be doing that. Well, he did that dumb ass man. He did that dumb ass man. And it was like, it was hard. It's like no, no, no, the slide, bro. Yes, slide, bro. So he got to get better on that, but that wasn't bad. One last thing we move on to the Jaguars game. I want to talk about this defensive line. The reason I want to talk about this defensive line is because this was something that was a big question. It was my biggest question mark coming to the season was my Ted Swak getting help. And that has been something where it has not been a problem. This team is eighth in sacks already. They've had at least two sacks of game. Last night they had four, four sacks. It's not just Ted's. In fact, Ted's hasn't really had a monster game yet. He's been dominating for sure. He's still been doing Ted's things, but there's been other guys who've been shining. You know, Demarcus Walker told us during camp the last year it was a bad year because he wasn't healthy. He said I wasn't myself last year. And he's looking like that was right. He's out there Hooper. You get in love from your young bucks. You know what I'm saying? Austin Booker got a sack last night. And there's two trades that Ryan Paul's made the beginning of the season that I don't feel like it's getting enough love. Chris Williams, Dorel Taylor, both of those dudes are calling. Dorel Taylor just brings a different attitude off that edge. He plays CTE ball. And Chris Williams gives me the Andrew Billings effect where he plays so well that you for your hands name like that. Because he's playing so well. And they all compliment each other. And I love the blitz that you're getting from the secondary, Calla Gordon, who is the most underrated nickel in the league in my opinion. He's playing it at all pro level. Jekwan Briska. I sat on the show last year. Look, I'm taking my chains off of this. I'm sorry. And if I sat on the show last, I took it. I said, what did Jekwan Briska do? Well, everybody said that, man, you're like, well, what was that come? And you know, I apologize, Jekwan, you are that guy that hit last night that you put on buddy, almost had a tear. You go look at that head again. You go look at that head again. I was he truck he truck truck Briska as he just took the brother. He just took the brother. That was some high quality CTE ball right there. You might get trimmed, but you're not going to nigga down. What Marsha Lisa? I might trip that. No, I think Briska just played it off better. Because he just went, Briska lied down and then got that clip like, yeah. Briska felt like this. He was like, Oh, this is what I touched on. I was like, yo, is Brisk okay, but then they could do it. Like, I think it did. Yeah, my bad, Jekwan, I wasn't familiar with the game. You are a that is what you call that's what you want to see from the strong safety, knocking niggas out, and then Kevin buyer. I don't know. Man, he been balling. He even bought every place he was. You know what I'm saying? Like finally got an inner self. Yes, even though Andy Dalton threw it right to that nigga. But this defensive line is dominant. And I do I still do think they need one more piece and take it to a leader lead. But that's not a weakness on this defense to me right now. Man, what do you think about more specifically what you can see in from the deep from the defense line this year? I told y'all in the in the classroom, Daxter is my key. If Daxter is who we we supposed to be at that three tech, then we gonna be all right. Who named do you hear every game? Gervon Daxter senior. So I am very excited about what we've been seeing from him. Billings even got him. Excuse me, Billings even got him a sack yesterday. He's been playing well. Like you said, Williams has been playing well. Taylor has a motor out this world. He is always around the ball. Montez sweat. I've been getting the sacks that we we thought he would get. But you have to account for him. And since you have to account for him, you you you see the other players. It's moving even her Austin Booker name yesterday. So that defensive line. Oh man, look, we we need one more piece. And we got a second round pick that we could flirt around. There's probably going to be a couple of teams before election day that might be looking to move some pieces around. I think you could flirt that number two from the Carolina Panthers considering what you see. And if you do it, I think we got somebody. We got something on that defensive line. Yeah, this my thing with that. I think we are falling into the trap that Chicago fans always fall into where we go deepest, deepest, deepest. We still need to fix this off Mr. Blime. So like as far as I'm concerned with right now, I'm not moving that second round pick. Unless it's fucking Michael Parsons. Like I'm just not I don't go fuck who you bring me. Like they they they're not getting a random ass nigga. Yeah. Like even the max crowds be like based off what we need and what we have. I'm tired of doing the traditional Chicago bears. Let's have a great defense thing. Like I want to fix the offensive line. So like with that being said, I'm I'm pleasantly surprised because they've done it by you know by committee. You've had a rotation Austin Booker. You know, he was got a lot of hype out of preseason. He's made a couple plays and you know, he's somebody who still has to develop. But I think more than anything the fact that when you have been able to get the success you had with this mix without, you know, pretty much only my test is the name that we know. It's not a lot of known guys on this defensive line, but they've been able to make it work. And if they continue to do this as the season goes on, I think if anything that gives you confidence, they'll stand pat with what you've got and then keep those assets and you can assess it at the end of the season. So for me, just because what we know about this offensive line and even though, you know, like, so they had a good game, but I mean, it's the path. They've banged up, you know, we're gonna see how they go next week in London. I think I am too, you know, too concerned with the old line to sit here and and give pieces away without fixing that offensive line. But I agree, I think it may be somebody out there, but that second round pick, I'm keeping that because I think next year, first round, second round, you go offensive line, no questions asked, like 10 out of 10, that's what you've got to do. But I've been surprised by this defensive line. And I think, you know, it's one of those things where we're betting on guys that we drafted to have breakout years and they've actually done that with Montez there and then added, you know, people have to pay attention to him. It's not just okay, we can go one up with everybody. Sometimes he gets doubled, that less other guys go free. You said Jafon Dax is having a great year and I'm really, I'm really excited to see what he pushes that. But right now that D line has been one of the best in the league and we didn't expect that at all. Hey, Don, tell me too, man. Like, I think like getting another defensive line, I mean, that's something I worry about in free agency. I'm not trading that pick for that. I think all your resources go to the offensive line, that Panthers pick, which is going damn near to be the first round of your first rounder. And you know what I'm saying? And free agency, offensive line, offensive line, like Shane O'Mey said, I don't care if they pick a lineman, if every picks a lineman to draft, do it. You saw last night what kid looks like when he gets protection. Put some dogs around that boy. Kevin Jenkins, I hate to say it. You're done. You're done. He's a good dude. I am five or seven, but the last two weeks he got hurt. And I ain't noticed no drop off an offensive line when he came out. This is how bad Nate Davis is. Matt Pryor looks like a godsend. Bill Murray looks like a godsend. That's how bad Nate Davis was. Shit, they got to. Well, they had me rolling when they had to say like, yo, no, not Bill Murray, the actor. This is Bill Murray, the football player. I was like, yo, this is, this is definitely fresh out of the creative player after like the first draft or Madden. But I want to say this real quick. So I agree with you all. If you trade that second pick, it has to be somebody. But I think that depending on where you're picking in the first round, that's going to be your center of your guard right there. And you're going to have to go through free agency as you all see me, you know, blowing up this basketball. Cause my son got tryouts. So I got to be a good dad one. Real black fathers, real black dads. If you, if, if a Max Crosby or a, if a Max Crosby or a Michael Parsons is available, more Max Crosby than Michael Parsons. Cause the Cowboys is going to always think they're in it. You go out and get that man. If you could get that man for that, if you could get that man for less than that too, that's cool. If you could get him for three, that's even better. But you need that help right now. And you can go out and depending on if in cutting ham gets drafted on, gets a job and stuff too. You can also have a situation where you're going to get some compensatory picks. I thought we were going to get that Jessica kills people. We'll talk about that in a reaction Monday. Are we getting that shit? Not getting that good. We'll talk about that over. Actually, we're going to just a minute, man. Let's wrap up the look while with our bears, Jaguars. Preview says we will not be here on Friday. We're going to break the game down. If you missed this, I will be chopping this up as a clip and we'll be dropping that clip on Friday. Well, you two be driving on Friday. Now, being some pub in London, getting, getting toe up on Friday, but it will be up there just as well as our week six picks, which we're going to do in our two bears, Jaguars, and London at the newly, I'll say it's new. It's only been around five years. The Bears were the first, the Bears were the first team to play at the new Tottenham Stadium in London. Them and the Raiders that first game, they opened up Tottenham Stadium. I know that they have a lot of soccer rivalies out there. Shout out to our boy, Tosa. Shout out our producer, Nikia Bovlin, who said they rather die than the walk in the Tottenham. So I'm guessing there's some ride between the soccer clubs. So I'm looking forward to it. Jaguars finally got their first dub last night over the Indianapolis Colts in the game that they almost lost. Trickoff Trev looked alive yesterday. You know what I'm saying? I think that this is going to be a good game. I think that the Bears should win this. I think the Bears will win this. I think this is going to be a different test for the Bears. Now if you look at all the defensive rankings, they are top 10 rushing defense, the Jaguars. So we're going to really, really see if Shane Waldron and DeAndre Swift and Roshan Johnson have figured out the rushing because you're going to end up against last week. You want to do a bottle of rushing defense, you're going to have a top 10 rushing defense. Now passing defense overall defense, they're still like 29 30th when I just checked five minutes ago. So that's still a place to be had that offense thinks you're going to definitely they're going to get a couple off trickoff Trev. I think they might get a couple picks. They're going to get to them. But one person you got to watch in the pass rush, Trevon Walker. He is first in sacks right now in his position with three sacks. Oh, this is yesterday. He had three sacks yesterday. Several pressure was yesterday and he had a 90.3 PFF grade. So he's going to bring some heat and but the good thing is that Caleb Williams has been really, really good against the blitz. The last couple of weeks, he struggled against that the first two games of the season against Indianapolis and against the Houston Texans. Over the last two games, he is 17 of 19, 200 passing yards, two touchdowns, zero turnover worthy plays against the blitz. So there's things they're learning right there. I think that, first of all, I'm happy that the Jaguars won yesterday. I not want to deal with looking for our first win desperation. So I'm glad they got out of the way. I know Doug Peters is going to be playing for his job. But I think this offense go take another step. I think the defense is I feel like the better this offense gets, the better the defense gets. Now say that because now they know that they got points behind it. You know what I'm saying? Now I know that, okay, now we can take to another level because we got a guy back there who can sleep it. And my score for this game, I'm going to say, I'm not going to, I'm not going to go, you know, so I don't think it's going 30 again. But I will go 24-14 Bears over the Jaguars. I think this will be a very competitive game. But I think at the end, the defense is going to close it out. And I think that the offense is going to look pretty solid and they're going to continue to grow from last week. And then they're going to be heading four and two, heading to the bot. They tell me how you got this game against the Jaguars going and what your score is going to be. So first off, I do have a big worry for this game and it comes from the running game. Bigs be looked real good yesterday and has been looking real good. Paul's on all of that. So if there's any trepidation I have, it is the run defense that is not as strong as it was last year, last year. And if they let that man go off, this could be a long day. That being said, I have the Bears winning 30-17. Trickoff Trev is going to have two turnovers in that game. And this is going to be, I'm going to say if today's or yesterday's game wasn't the coming out party, next week is going to be the game where everybody says, "Okay, let's start talking about Caleb for two reasons. One, because he's going to have a good game against the Jaguars, but two, the promotion for the next game is going to have to start. Promotion, when it comes to one versus two, Heisman versus Heisman." I got something for that number last year, like all of that stuff, yeah. That promotion starts as soon as the 12 o'clock game starts. Is that a CBS game or is that Fox? Just CBS. I might be in a phone network, but usually... I'm talking about London. I'm talking about the Jaden game. The Bears, the London games in a phone network, Rich Eisner and Kurt Warren on the call. Oh, hold on. I think that's... And I know it's a new game for sure, so I don't know if that's CBS 27. No, they're not going to flex the game because the Cowboys are playing the 49ers. That would be a flexing of that one. Dante, how you got this game going on? Channel X says it's a CBS. Is that Tony Romo or something? Yeah, that's right, Mom. I'm going to be selfish. I'm not going to lie, based off what I experienced in 2019, and they better go over there and blow them the fuck out. I took that eight-hour flight and watched Chase Daniels try to beat the opponent. Oh, my God, Mr. Neven played. No, he got hurt, so I was terrible. But now I think it's going to be a really good game. I think, like you said, Jacksonville, despite their struggles, they still have some talent on that team. So, you know, we talk about how this is a week by week, so we know they're not going to just fly over there and fold. But at the same time, I would love to see a 30 to 13 Bears victory, like I think I'm really going to go with my heart on this, or am I going to go on anything I've seen.

Caleb goes across the pond and I mean, the NFL has already placed him as one of the next big guys and somebody they're going to really push. And this is an opportunity for him to have a big game on a national stage. And so, you know, 930 AM game here in America, primetime overseas. And Scott, you'll see it when you get there. But like, the atmosphere around these games is really dope because you have a lot of people who just legitimately love football and they haven't really been tame it in the same way that us as American fans have been. So like, you get people who are there, they're just excited and just yelling for every player and they have them don't know what the fuck going up. You're going to have a lot of bear friends and you're going to have some people who just love football. So I think in that atmosphere, I think, you know, with the Jaguar struggling, they got dubbed this week. But this is starting a two-week run for them over there in London. I think they're going to go over too. But I think the bears are going to take care of business 30 to 13. I think Caleb has continued to improve every week. And I think he's going to be even better across the pond. And like I said, I just love the fact that they're leaving today and not on fucking Friday. That was that was idiotic when you really think about it. That was a huge naggy. That was dumb. But I mean, the fact that they're getting over there, getting acclimated. So like, even if you leave it, you know, leaving today, even if you want to go party, you can go party a little bit. And then, you know, bring your ass back to the to the team hotel. And you still got a couple days to get right and get ready for the game. So I think I'm going to go 30 to 13 bears. And it's going to be a great time over there. I'm not looking forward to the flight, but I am very giddy for this trip. Oh, Nick, I'm going to be I'm going to be in Delta one, Nick. I'm going to enjoy that. Yeah, yeah, we know that. Yeah. This thing going to have his own cubicle. Like he going to be doing your ass, you going to close the door. Yeah, I'm not going to have a cubicle. I'm already I'm already I've already selected my meal. The short reels will be amazing. You feel me? Like it's gonna be a hell of a trip. We saw I still get a meal. I still get the wine and joints. I'm going to be buying other stuff. I will be very intoxicated on that flight. But, you know, hopefully all I asked is for our seat. If I got to pay for our seat, I'll do like I do, but that's I'm just a little man. Last time I went because I wasn't dealt to one. But like we had the dinner. I popped the 50 grand 50 milligram of red wine. I woke up in London boy. I was hell of a trip. I came out to you. Did you go straight there or did you have like a Leo? Yeah, not had a direct flight. I had a direct flight from Atlanta. So it was like eight hours. So yeah. Yeah, I got an hour layover in my favorite city in America that is New York City. I wish it was a longer layover. So I can, you know, walk around for a little bit with an hour and if anybody knows anything about JFK, let's go to the bathroom link right back in line. Have a seat. All right. And it's not that's not long at all. So like I said, there'll be no show on Friday when we back on Monday. So we're gonna take a quick one minute break on the other side. We're gonna have the quickest MLB weekend, weekend recap, you ever seen because Mike getting caught in the night here. But we still got to talk a couple of things about that. It'll get an overreaction Monday. Top stories from week five and then we're gonna do a week six preview, man. So we'll be right back in a minute. [Music] Welcome back ladies and gentlemen. For hour two here on I'm not going to hold you. Man, me, Dante and Bang holding it down. Man, MLB playoffs is currently underway, man. The division series we previewed that on Friday. We currently have a pitcher's duel going on in Cleveland between the Guardians and the Detroit Tigers right now. They're in the bottom of the seventh on top of the eighth. No score. The three school is pitching out a shutout, man. I just put a pitcher's duel going on. But during the weekend, we also have some crazy sports we did. Great college football. It was a day of upsets on Saturday. A lot of people out there thought the University of Miami was gonna lose Saturday night. A lot of people were wrong. A lot of people were texting me for a couple hours and then when I texted them back, niggas don't either use their phone no more. Just want to put that out there. Number one, they came back in beat California, beat Cal last night. I mean, beat them that night. You know, big comeback. Michael Urban must have been on something. I've never seen a nigga watch a game, Andy and style. I don't even know what that was. Paul, he was going to all fours. Yeah. He was definitely wild. He was doing a little bit too much. That man was on all fours. Arts fam. Yeah, he was. He was tripping. But then you have, of course, the good football games yet. Yes, they were getting to a minute, but some good baseball games this week with the Guardians winning game one, taking real light work of the Tigers, the Met Stole game one on Saturday. Yankees beat the Royals in game one. And then the Dodgers show he had a great outing in and I'm not out of it, but performance in game one, his first ever playoff game with that massive home run. And then the game too. They got absolutely Molly walked. But that's why I want to start. A lot of people last night saw a lot of people clutching their pearls but what happened in the stands is Chavez revenge between the fans of the Dodgers and pro far and the entire San Diego Padres. I just want to say this first. I am not condoning, throwing anything on the field. I don't think you should throw anything on the field. These are human beings, leave them alone. It's dangerous. Somebody can get in the head. I understand why profiles upset. First of all, I don't know how a nigga got a ball into the stadium to begin with, but maybe maybe he caught one of the foul balls and decided I'm a thrower at this nigga because, you know, he robbed the Mookie Betts home run and stare at us, which I thought was brilliant. As a couple, first of all, this is, if you've been the Dodgers stadium, LA is my second home, decade there, love it out there. I am a, the Dodgers are my team right now to the White Sox get together in 2045. I turned in my 10 year citizenship to be able to do that. This is, if you've been in any Dodger game, that's any day that begins in one. You can see that on a regular two-day gets a Cincinnati Reds. So I'm not condoning it, but oh, it's the worst fantasy for sports. By the way, that coming from Philadelphia fans is very rich in any sport. Y'all the same niggas that clapped with Michael Irving's career in the on the floor. Like, what are we doing? Shut your mouth. This is a rivalry game. I seen a nigga slop in front of me with San Diego Padres debut Juan Soto in Sunday night, full play night baseball. I seen a nigga slip. And then when I saw in the LA scanner, they said, all those fights breaking out in the parking lot got to say them. I wonder how that happened? You know what I mean? I wonder these dudes been drinking modello since 1 p.m. in that parking lot. This was meant. This was going to happen. And so like I said, I'm not condoning it. That's part of baseball. It's a good rivalry. I actually enjoyed watching the fans getting to it. You ain't got to involve the players in it. But I love how the San Diego Padres kind of rallied around demanding with Chado, one of my favorite players, rally the truth. It's like, yo, we got let's stump on these niggas. You know, Tatis finally his first playoff run. I don't count 2020. Two years ago, he wasn't doing that run because he was too busy doing steroids for like no reason, by the way, the niggas code anyway. And he's out there. He's, you know, laughing at the crowd. I loved it. And I think these next two games of San Diego are going to be crazy. And I think this series is going to go all five. And in a crazy game, yes, they, which I missed all of it until the actual walk off by Castellanos. Game two between the Phillies and Mets, another division rivalry. Mets had them look like they were going to be up to, and then Bryce Harper, who defeated me last year, I no longer have any on field hate for Bryce Harper. He is one of the best postseason performers of his generation. Home run got him back into a Nick Castellanos. You know, they came back one that game now, so one, one series. This has been a very, very competitive weekend. I really want to see if Detroit could get back into it. The Yankees play the Royals in game two, can they get back into what it's going to look like? But that's it. What was your thoughts on this weekend's playoff games? I mean, a lot of good baseball. My picks have not been, you know, coming through so far. But I mean, especially with the Guardians, you know, we see this is a tie game right now, but they really came out. I expected a lot of the teams that had the day, the break to really struggle with the Dodgers came out in game when it took care of business. I think the Guardians did as well. I think it's one of those things where the talent is still there. So I think last year, you saw a lot of teams really complaining about it. But I think this year, at least based off the results from game one, you saw a lot of teams who really prepared themselves for that break and said, okay, yeah, we got a week off, but we know what we got to do, and we have to be able to come into these games and really pick up where we left off when we saw those teams do that. I think, you know, as the playoffs continue to go, you're going to see a lot of good series. It's not going to be too many blowouts. It's not going to be too many series where like a team just gets swept. I'm not expecting that for many of these series, because just because the talent, I'm like the talent is there, but these teams are pretty evenly matched. So you had a lot of people talking about before the MLB playoffs even started that you know, this is one of those years where anybody can win the World Series. And I think that that Dodger Padres series is the perfect example of that, because either one of those teams that win that series could win the actual World Series like they're that good. But we're going to just wait and see. But I mean, I think we have a lot of really, really good baseball ahead of us, but I'm excited for what we're going to see. As somebody who has been a Dodger stadium a couple of times, what do you think about the actual curriculum activity we saw? I was about to say as a nigga that's been kicked out of Dodger stadium. It's Dodger stadium, bro. Like it's just it's really a rocker's atmosphere. Wonder what that is, a badge of money. That's a good story starter. It takes a lot to get kids in the Dodger stadium. Do we do? Let's let on. We did it, but no, like I wasn't shocked, especially with this rivalry, because you know, San Diego and LA is one of those teams. It's not the Giants and the Dodgers, but I mean, over the last few years. No, you're sitting there getting stabbed in the Giants. Yeah, I don't know if y'all remember when we were, I think we were in college when this happened, but to do that, he got beat when he was paralyzed. So like, no, that's a different rivalry, but I mean, Dodgers Padres over the last few years have been one of the biggest rivalries in the league. So I'm not surprised that a lot of this should happen. The throwing step on the field is always corny. It's just like, bro, you there to be entertained. You're not there to hurt nobody. So while you would throw batteries and baseballs and all type of shit trying to hit profile in the back, that's that's corny. I don't like that, but I mean, it's it's nothing surprising. It should vez ravine. You know, they they love they Dodgers, bro. They take them a little too serious. Shout out all my Dodger homies, man. Shout out to all y'all, man, but let's move on. It is time for one of my new favorite segments on the show. And I've got some good ones today. Overreaction Monday. So I third edition of this. Um, I've got to say it was Mexican World War three. That's hilarious. Uh, I have a couple overreactions for y'all. I want to know what y'all thoughts of it. And then we'll go to y'all overreactions, man. My first one. I hate to say this, man. Justin Fields is a career backup. I feel that that's just kind of what it is. We pretty much all been guaranteed that Russell Wilson will be starting next week. I think they pretty much let that cat out the bag doing the broadcast on of y'all heard it. I feel like Mike Tureko is basically told by Mike Tomlin that, yeah, if Russ is ready to go Sunday, he's going to be the starter. Yeah. Uh, I love Justin. I really do. I'm just a guy, but it's somebody to the yesterday. Oh, Justin's really good QB. And I'm like, my nigga, are you watching the game? I've seen this game. More times I can count in his three years in Chicago. A couple of highs, a lot of lows. The boys just don't know how to hold on to the ball. It just don't know how to hold on to the ball. It was like for whatever reason, even if he gets the fumble back, he just don't know how to hold on the ball. He's lucky that the Dallas Cowboys secondary has Butterfingers. They dropped by four picks yesterday. And I think that for him in these games, he was going to have to be not picture perfect, but it had to be a clear distinction between him and Russ for them not to go back to Russ. Whatever you want to say about Russ, he's healthy, falling off. And I do believe he's falling off. I don't think there's that big of a difference between Russ and Justin. I said the beginning of the season that I would have started. Russ, the beginning of the ever Russ got hurt in the camp. I think that, you know, there's just, there's this, you know, sometimes the ball comes out a little bit too late. Russ, you're basically getting the same thing. But I think it's a little more polished than Justin feels. Russ didn't have a bad year last year. And it just wasn't a good team. So I feel like the thing, the difference is this, you don't, the Steelers aren't going to just let Russ sit on the bench. Let this former Super Bowl champion, maybe Hall of Fame would just sit on the bench and, you know, not, and not give him a shot. If you give Russ a shot and he fails, you can go back to Justin. He's a younger quarterback. You know what I'm saying? So I kind of feel like this happened in the best way to see who they have from Justin before going to Russ. Now, I think that, I'm not saying that Justin can't be a starter, but if your team out there looking for a quarterback, there's going to be three or four quarterbacks that a lot of people are going to be trying to get next year, there's vets. I don't know 100% if there's a starting position for him in the league. And I feel like if Russ comes out and plays the same way he's playing a little bit better, Justin might be a crib backup. Oh, man, you think what I'm saying is a reaction? No, no, I do not think it's an overreaction. In fact, I had that thought since last season. Um, Justin is somebody that I hope succeeds. But, um, so, yeah, man, I, I, if, damn, I, it's thanks. Yeah, we got to keep it real. Yeah, it's thanks. But, okay, I'll say it like this, man. It depends on who's the coordinator. I feel like if Justin gets one more season under Arthur, under Arthur Smith, he'll be okay. You still got to break out of those. I think it's the, Justin is a victim of the worst time in recent memory when it comes to the NFL. You did okay last season, but your team got the number one pick. Yeah. You're doing okay this season, and you should beat out Russell Wilson, but you would be a free agent next season. And we ain't trying to pay you all that. So we might mess around and let both of y'all go. So, yes. And if he goes to another team, like what team could he go to? Could he go to the Raiders? Like the Raiders is literally, you see, Mark Davis giving googly eyes, that should do sandals at the age. Yeah, he got to get there though. You got to get there. So, the Raiders is the only team that I could see Justin with and having some time. He got to play with Luke gets it. And that's the problem right there. And I also want to say that I thought it's very interesting. I don't know if y'all heard his podcast, when he was on a podcast, I think it's one of Pouncy's. Was it one of Pouncy brothers? Are the Knicks still on the team? I don't know. But some lights getting there going on. No, no, Cam Hayward. That Cam Hayward, I said it was Cam Hayward. Cam Hayward. And he said that Arthur Smith called him running back when they played the Falcons when he was with the Bears. I thought that was kind of funny. And very interesting that he has his coach now. But Dante, do you think of what we're saying, what I'm saying is overreaction. No, I don't think it's overreaction. I think Justin is unfortunately been pushed into a situation where his last year with the Bears is going to be his situation and every team he goes to, where it's like, if you don't show us you the guy, we're going to move on. Just flat out. If you don't shock and all us or have a lot of games where it's really clear this day, like, okay, Justin, there's the guy, then there's always going to be competition. And he hasn't shown that so far. I think he had an opportunity to build off some good games. And he had a pretty mediocre game against Dallas. It was the same, same Justin we've seen for years. So it was one of those things where I'm not surprised that, you know, we're probably going to see Russell Wilson just to see what he can give that team. Because like you said, it's a lot easier to bench Russ and go back to Justin. These are this to do the exact opposite. So it is what it is. It's kind of, you know, it's unfortunate. We've all rooted for him and wanted to see him succeed. But right now, because of everything he's done up and to this point, because of his recipe, he's going to be seen as a guy that has to perform at a good or better level every week before he officially gets that. Okay, he's our starter now. Yeah, I agree with that, man. My next one, I don't care what the stats say. I don't care how much money he got paid. You can't fool me, my nigga. Real niggas know what they looking at. And Jordan Love is actually been. I'm sorry. That nigga is being protected by Matt LaFluor. And that defense, I didn't know that Matt LaFluor was like that. I thought Matt LaFluor was a product of Aaron Rodgers. I was wrong. I've never seen somebody scheme up while receivers being overland. That boy mid. I'm sorry. There was some throws just in that Rams game where I was like, yeah, nigga, do you know we can see you? Like it was it was it was just not good this whole season. And it just looked like there's something not here. And you take away there were the little five game stretchy head towards the end of the season. This is pretty much how he's played. I don't I'm not think he's a bad quarterback. I don't think he's a good quarterback. I'm not even really mad at them panning because of today's in the field. You you're paying off what you think you can be. And if you've got a somewhat okay quarterback, you're not going to let him walk. But the niggas knock. He's not he's mid. He's not somebody who is going to win a game because of himself. I think that when it's all said and done that he's not like y'all can stop with them with the prep fall of the Aaron Rodgers and Jordan Love montage. I think it's a lot. That's my second old reaction. And Jordan Love is actually mid. Hey, what'd you think about that? I think he's being protected by a good coach and a defense. I was looking at that game yesterday and he was erratic. He's erratic. And that pick six he threw was one of the worst pick sixes I've seen in recent men. But what Green Bay has is an amazing defense. I did not realize how good that defense was. I didn't realize how big of an addition an Xavier McKinney was. That defense is good. So as long as that defense is there, he's going to get the ball and they're going to get him right. If you put Jordan Love in another situation, you've wasted the money that you signed them. So no, I believe he's mid too. He just he's showing you what coaching. Yes. And do for you. Him and Sam Donner. We're getting to that division. Dante, do you think what I'm saying is off base? Do you think Jordan Love is mid or I'm just being a businessman? I think we've felt this way since last year. You have a great coach and you have a great scheme. It makes it makes players look a lot better than what they really are. And I think this is a situation where I don't think this is much of Jordan Love's fault because this is what Green Bay has done. When you're able to sit it guy down for three years and say, hey, bro, just learn this system. Just don't worry about nothing else. You're not going to play. We got a guy here who's going to play. Just learn the system. Jordan Love was always going to come on to the field and at least be competent. Like he was always going to be that because he's had time to literally just sit there and learn the system. But when it's time to go above and beyond and do those extra plays, he relies a lot on what Matt can do for him. What's been drawn up? What can be coached up for him? So I'm not going to knock him for that. But I think yeah, he's definitely protected by the fact that he has a head coach that always puts him in the best position to succeed because most quarterbacks don't have that. Definitely. I've got two more before I go to y'all if y'all have any boots. This one, I bring a lot of pride in this. This may be happy when I wrote this down this list. 2024 Jets Aaron Rodgers is Patrick Yoon on the Orlando Magic. Patrick Yoon on the Seattle Supersonics is who Aaron Rodgers is. I don't know if y'all watched that game yesterday because it came on so early. But that nigga stank. I can't tell you the last time I saw Aaron Rodgers throw three interceptions and probably get it through four. If you look where Aaron has been, the number is making numbers of the CU 1000 yards, seven touchdowns, four picks. I know what that nigga looks like when he's on. I know what he looks like when he's cooking. He looks old that knee has no movement whatsoever. Shack on the subjects. Yes. Shack on the boss of the subject. Shack on the Cleveland Cavaliers. John starts on the Bulls like we can be here all day with niggas who's on Dennis Robin on the maths. Dennis Robin on the Mavericks, bro. Like just bad. And I think that it's finally over. And this is also what kind of goes what you were saying on Friday, babe, was much as Devontaine wants to play with Aaron. I might want to play with him. He's not the same guy anymore. And he could probably leave. And then you're gonna be stuck with Carson, Becca, whoever else they gonna have in there. I think Aaron Rodgers is a Seattle Superstonics, Patrick. Hey, do you agree with me? He is Orlando Magic Shawn Kemp. That's what he is right now, fam. We can keep this going. Jack, he he's got he pipping on his second leg of the Bulls. Yeah. Yeah, he's that fam. It is a rap. It is. Oh, what is this numbers in your pocket? I mean, when you used to throw those things over, I watched that game. And I said he getting his ass beat. He came move. You you they threw that one touchdown before half time. The announcers, the rich eyes of them got a little bit geek like, Oh, okay. But no, it is O V. If I am Mike Greenberg, I'm like, damn, I was excited about this. Like, no, I saw a stat and I don't know if this is right because it was on the means. So I don't know. But I saw something that said that in the same amount of games last year compared to this year. It's just it is the same between what Aaron did this year and what Zach Wilson did last year. It is a rap. Gee, that shit. He almost died. He was on that sideline and crawling, Jack. And here's what makes me upset about this jet shit. Everybody is blaming Robert Salah. N***a is the offense that is huff. It is head coach Nate, Nate, Nate, Daniel, have you and Aaron Rodgers in that offense that's terrible. That team wouldn't be shit if it wasn't for Robert Salah in that defense. That n***a that Aaron Rodgers wanted and Aaron Rodgers is the reason why that team is huff. N***a, why Breeze Hall wasn't in that motherfucking game doing it. They could Breeze Hall disappeared much. That shit is over. It is a rap. Aaron, go take whatever it is. He can't even be a family man. He ain't got no family. He ain't got no family. He ain't got no bitch. He ain't got shit. He ain't got no he can't get no ass. He just being he's just going to be in a dark ass cabin in California. I think I bought it with a championship game and Fumble Olivia Munn in one calendar year. Yeah, he's just going to be in some goddamn rural area of California eating some mushrooms that's going to make him remember when he actually won the Super Bowl damn near 15 years ago. It's just a rap n***a. That is a rap. Alex, you have in 112 memories, numbers in proper. They used to hurt me back in the day. One of the things about this video, I don't think it's a senior in front of a waffle house, but Dante, it's Roger's watch. Yeah, that was actually my overreaction for the week. He's done, he's huffed, but he's terrible. I'm not going to lie. When he got rolled over, I thought it was it was done, but it was done. I'm sorry. I had a six mile in my face. I thought it was like, I was in a group looking like it's something wrong with me. He definitely hobbled to the sideline. I popped another perk and came back out there. But yeah, it's over with for this guy. I don't think trading for the Monte Adams is going to save him. I think it's one of those things where it's like the age, the injury you suffer and then trying to come back. It's like, yeah, you were once, you know, when he's still one of the greatest ball place in terms of ball placement and throwing a ball and everything he could do on the field. That's not the novel, but it's done. It's over with. It's time to go. I can't say be a family man because his family hates him, but it's time to go home. It's go figure some shit out, bro. Go back to your little dog, yo ass, but it's gone. You know, that's what it is. I swag on that. And they got to go more and work it out with his family. That's fuck you got to do it. But yeah, I think it's over with here. There you go. They got a Netflix dot coming out about this nigga in the couple weeks too. Oh, they think it's watched at the perfect time. Yeah, you know, you watch we got document coming out when you're still playing. All right. That's what you know. That is coming up, man. But final one for me. And then if y'all got anything we're at it, this one's actually, I think it's a good overreaction. Oh, I got a good one. I got a good one. I'm full delusion on mine. I'm looking forward to that one. This one, I think is a good one for Bears fans and commanders fans. We are overreaction. We are watching the next Tom Brady versus Peyton Madden. With Taylor Williams and Jay Des, we keep hearing all these comments. Who's better? Who's better? Who said there can't be two great quarterbacks? Who said we're not watching a generational battle between these dudes is going to start in a couple of weeks in Landover, Maryland, in the worst stadium in the NFL. Who says that both teams, who says that the commanders ain't got that guy? Who said that we ain't got that guy? Who said this won't be the NFC championship game in two three years? Maybe we are watching the beginning of a budding rivalry. And if anybody remembers that, there's a lot of kids out there who don't remember that right. There's two parts of the rivalry. There's the first part of the rivalry with Brady and them was getting up in manning. Now, I remember that cold, AFC championship game. Well, Peyton Madden threw three picks to tie law three. Now, I remember Shady Brucekey walking around thinking he's Brian Erlaka, talking about they can't beat us. I don't care how good he is. Like maybe that's it. Maybe that's what we're watching. We're putting, we argue with each other about it. Maybe we're watching the beginning of a rivalry here where both of these guys are fighting for the NFC championship, fighting for a chance to go to the Super Bowl. Maybe that's what we're watching. I think from the progression that we've seen from Jaden, you know, I don't care if he's doing it against bump teams, he's looking well. You know what I'm saying? He said, Daniel's Brady. If we don't know that, we don't know that. We're putting too much difference. I think Caleb is Tom Brady. And who know, baby, that's what I think. Bang him. Am I tripping him? Am I, no, I wouldn't use, I wouldn't use men and Brady yet, like a nigga got to win some shit. But definitely, I mean, if we matter of fact, all right, I'll give you one right here. If we talking about two quarterbacks who might be cold, but they ain't winning shit yet, this might be goddamn Dammarino versus Jim Kelly. I'll put him in that shit. Okay, I'll go with that. No niggas ain't one shit, all right. So I don't want to put way too much dip on a motherfucker chip. But if we want to put it in this proper perspective, I'll put Dammarino versus Jim Kelly, except they ain't in the same division. Look, two young QB's just out here getting it and everything. And it looks like they're going to have some good, a great future in this league. But I don't want to put anything revolving around somebody who's won a Super Bowl yet with these two. But two quarterbacks who definitely did that thing in the NFL and in their own right are icons and legends in this sport is Dammarino. Dammarino might be the greatest quarterback of all time, the best thrower of the football and the only reason why he's not talked about with other people is because he didn't win a ring. He went to one Super Bowl and that was pretty and lost it to Joe Montana and that and that was like in the second season. That launched that launched Montana. Yeah. So so I'll put that in that perspective. But we got two young quarterbacks who I think is going to be around for a long time. And I'm excited. Plus a very underrated part about this too. And shafts out to one of my OGs out then D.C. Doc Walker, former member of the Washington Redskins, part of the Hogs and all of that stuff. Chicago and Washington is a rivalry in the game. 100 percent. Yeah. That is 100 percent. Doc Doc could come to my office. Chicago, Chateau hate them bears. Man, we mad anytime we played them. When we played them, we wanted to give it to them. Matter of fact, if I can remember this correctly, OG mine. Walter Pais last game as a Chicago bear is a playoff loss to the Washington Redskins. The team of the eighties was supposed to be the bears. Washington could have been the team of the eighties because they got two. They got two titles and three Super Bowl appearances, I believe it was in the eighties. It turns out to be the San Francisco 49ers. But that team, those two teams right there, when they play each other, they don't like each other. Bring it back to the eighties, Jack. There we go. Don't say what you think, man. Are we wilding? No, no, I think it's really more than anything. We are thirsty for that next great quarterback matchup. We live during these matchups, Doc. We thirsty to be a part of it. I mean, that goes without saying, but it's in terms of having two great quarterbacks in the same division that we look forward to those matchups, where it's like, okay, no, they're going to go at it. They believe for the get it in. Like, I remember those Tom Brady versus Peyton Manning, AFC championships, like that was must see TV. Like you cleared out your Sunday afternoon because we bought the watch Tom Brady and paid many. Shane, you're wrong. Shane said the industry never had a time of paying type of rivalry. Shit. What was that? Oh, shit. Troy Eggman versus Dave Young. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Troy Eggman versus Brephon. That's at one point. Real sales versus Joe Montana was at some point. Yeah, but no, I think it has the potential to be there. It's still early. It's still early, but the potential is there. Hey, hit us with your overreaction. Hey, man. I just let y'all know how full delusion or my aunt and I am your fine Dexter senior will be in the defensive player of the year conversation. He got four sacks already as a three tech D tackle. He get that. Conversations will be head with Gervon Dexter senior being in defensive player of year conversation. Who in the NFC right now, defensive player has been dominating. Yeah, that's a good point. That's a good point. We don't have Aaron and Donald here. Right. So as a D as a three tech D tackle with four sacks already, I believe that he leads the NFL. He leads interior lineman in the NFL with sacks right now. He's going to be in that conversation this year. If he continues to what continues doing what he is doing. The Von Dexter has four. He's around the ball. Heavy. You him. The bears has a top 10 defense right now. If he get the watch what happened. I think it's a slight overreaction, but I like it. I like it. I like what I've seen from Gervon Dexter. He had a great training camp. Everybody saying if he can step up, then it's to take this best defense to the next level and he's been doing that. So I think the defensive player is until TJ what dies is going to be probably his. No, you got a MC NFC. They do a separate. You do you have a defensive player to you? Separate. They get they get them a war set. So and still even this even still has a D tackle. This is meant to be an overreaction, but it's a D tackle. It's a D tackle. Once you get to eight nine, it's a conversation. It's an I say, I didn't say you're gonna win it. It's a conversation. I said conversation. I said conversation. Dante, do you have a overreaction before we wrap this up? No, no, I don't. You took one of us. That is today's edition of overreaction Monday, man. So let's get into a couple. There's a couple stories from week five, man. I want to talk about last night's Sunday night football game real quick, man. The Code of Prescott, the Code of Rain Prescott had the most deck Prescott ass game ever. He threw a lot of a lot of pads. We like nigga, are you blind? And then he then he threw that game winner out the corner. There was several things funny about that. Number one, they hit that day that that uh that was Zicki Ellis, somebody got knocked out. And that was like one of the Tom Jackson, Chris Berman era. Oh man, Detroit Tigers, three run, home run in the bottom, the top of the night, Tigers up. Three one home one, Carrie Carverder. If you're watching that game, shout out to Detroit. Look like they're gonna tie this series up. But that to me just showed you a really saved the cowboy season because it really looked like that season was gonna end there. TJ Y got us a hundred sack. That nigga is incredible. He's better than his brother and that's saying something because his brother was incredible. But I also think it showed you that as greatest coaches can be as great as the Mike Tom Lincoln be, he tweaked a little bit on on on a time management towards then. I believe that it kept the timeouts a little bit more at least have one more time out. They could at least try to get it into field go range. But that was the 60 million dollar year type drive um from uh that press guy. And on the other side, like you said earlier, it also showed you why Russell Wilson's probably gonna start um next week. Um, babe, what you think about last night's saying that football game that took forever to actually get started because that thunder delay. I was looking at an email for work. My bad. What'd you just say? I worked. It's got all my nerves real quick. What'd you think about last night's Sunday night football game and that drive by deck? Man, if anything, I'm gonna worry about the Cowboys. That's what I thought about that game. Um, the fact that him and CD lamb can't get along and they just got how both of y'all niggas got your money and y'all can't get along is beyond me. But I was shocked to find out that that was like Dax first time. I think I saw something that said that that was Dax first touchdown in the fourth quarter that late to get ahead of some shit. Some weird ass lame ass analytics that somebody came up with. Um, but but but with that defense that they was going to get against also, I thought it was great at the same time. It's one of those games that you leave with more questions than you do have answers. Can this team get along? Is this defense good enough to get them through the NFC East? Let it long get to the playoffs. Um, even though I think I picked the Steelers, I was expecting a bit more from the Cowboys. So I don't know, man. Like, I'm just, I'm still just wondering how two niggas that just got the money that both of those marks got. I ain't get along right now. Like you can't trade one of them. So you don't know the concept look out, boy. Yeah. See, I thought CD led was going to hit him. The shit that happened between Gabe Davidson and Trevor Lawrence. I thought that was going to be Dallas Cowboys last night. Yeah, he doesn't got he wanted to steal off, buddy. Don said, well, where'd you take from last night, Sunday night football game? Uh, that I'm an idiot for picking back to be MVP. Dakota has let me down every week so far. I don't think he's had really too many performance a lot of them like, yeah, this thing. But if I'm the Cowboys, I'm really concerned. I understand you won this game, but it's like, this does not look like a team that's built to make a deep playoff run. So if that's the case, what are you paying on these niggas for? You spend a lot of money at these key positions and it doesn't look like a position to win anything. So I mean, as much as we talk about owners who don't care, one thing I can honestly say, Jerry Jones cares. He cares. He's trying to think he he fucks up, but he's trying to win. So I continue to get older. As he continues to get older, I wonder, you know, what do the Cowboys do? Because I think Jerry Jones is definitely one of those owners who he wants to get one more before he dies. He wants one more before he goes. And that that day is sooner rather than later. I'm not even trying to be funny, but so what where do the Cowboys go from here? Because it's one of those things where it's like this is like another typical nine win first round lost Cowboys team. It's nothing spectacular here. Let's go into what I think was game of the weekend yesterday between two division rivals. The Baltimore Ravens and the Cincinnati Bengals had an overtime shootout. There was absolutely no defense played in this game. Ravens came on top 41 38 because Zach Taylor, and I got to take my chains off again again. You have Joe Burrow. Why are you playing for a 55 yard field goal? Like the the the the the the the play call at the end of that game may absolutely no system. You have Joe Burrow. No, if you have Joe Burrow, you have Joe Burrow, who was 30 39 39 92 yards passing and five touchdown. I clicked out. So I'm saying I clicked out of the ESPN app. I'm trying to go back to where I had to stay. He had 392 yards last night, only one inception, which was kind of a bozo interception. But here we go. Oh yeah. Dark 39 39 two yards, five touchdowns, one pick. And he's been hoping all season. You got Jamar Chase, who doesn't looks like he'd get paid 10 or 7th on the night, three yards, two touchdowns, see Higgins, two touchdowns and your plan for field goal. Lamar Jackson gave y'all the game. Do y'all understand how I thought I was gonna come on this show here tomorrow? It'd be like, y'all see that fumble? Y'all see that fumble? I say clear the lane. I say clear the lane for Scott tomorrow. Y'all screwed me out of my rent today. And then you get a ball to them and Derek Henry reminded you why he's Derek Henry and the ball game was over. And that made me, even though Lamar had a great game, 2642, 348, four touchdowns and the crazy, crazy touchdown, which I won't Kevin Harlan to call nothing but Lamar Jackson gangster online. He was he was snapping. He was snapping, man. Crazy game. I think that effectively ended the bingo season. Lamar Jackson is now nine and one against the Cincinnati Bengals game. What you take from that game? I don't think and I'm not just saying this because I picked them to go to the Super Bowl and I picked Joe Barrow to be MVP. Because of the division that they're in, I don't think they're necessarily out of it. They haven't played their division game shit shit. But it's like, it's a life support though. It is on life support. And they gave away a game that was given to them. They gotta, they, they are in need of a player's only meeting. If there was a team that like how we had said a couple of weeks ago was like, there's having players only meetings already. If there was a team that was in need of a player's only meeting, it is not the entire team. It is not the entire team of the Cincinnati Bengals. It is the defense. It is one thing that I learned by watching that game yesterday and seeing the highlights of the others that that defense is the worst. That defense is the pitch and you have all the talent over there with T Higgins with your Mark Chase and Joe Barrow throwing them the ball. You got Zack Moss who's looked hella decent and Chase Brown is over there too. The offensive line is kind of decent for the Cincinnati Bengals. That defense sucks. And that defense is the reason why they might be out of it. The whole life support, they might be out of it because it was even in looking at some of the stuff that happened during that game yesterday. If it was a better defense, Scott, you would be clearing the lane at the beginning of the show. Talk to you about Lamar Jackson. If that defense was a lot better because here's the thing. They normally play the Ravens good even though, even though Lamar has that record against them, they play them better than what you saw yesterday because the defense of the Bengals is usually better. I don't know what the hell's going on over there. I don't know if they're trying to concern some money to get some people on the defensive side. But as long as that defense is playing at the way, playing the way that they play right now, the Cincinnati Bengals will go from life support to flat line real quick. Don't say man, which would you think about that game? And I guess like the play call and towards then that just didn't make any sense to me. Uh, yeah, I mean, we always talk about how these coaches getting their own way a lot of times. And I think this is one of those situations where you've got a guy like Joe Burrow, who was having a great game has shown you time and time again, he can put you, he gives your team the best chance to win. So why wouldn't you put the ball in his hand? So that was a coach, you know, out picking himself. So that was something that's silly. And, you know, in terms of Lamar and Burrow, I know Scott, I'm not going to like to hear this, but I mean, this is, this is, this is Lamar's division. It just is. Like, I understand that a few years ago, the Bengals did what they did, but like I told y'all several times again, unless everything is perfect, I don't expect Joe Burrow to win, right? Unless everybody's healthy. All of his individual game was way better than Lamar. Any loss, any loss. It wasn't his fault. I understand that, but my point stands. I think at the end of the day, with those teams, I'm always going to lean toward the Ravens over the Ravens. It's just, it's until they prove it. Otherwise, I'm always going to pick the side with the Ravens. But I mean, I think with terms of what you give a question and a play calling, you got to trust your God, man. Like this is my God. This is the guy we put faith in to be the face of the franchise to be our quarterback who has led us, you know, up until this point, why would you play for the field goal? I think anytime you see teams play for the field goal, you usually see bad shit happen. It's rare. We see a team played for the field goal. Like, that was something that a shot in FC South, you would see Matt Ryan, a Drew Brees dude, like 10 years ago, where it's like, all right, we down by one, I'm finna go get 45 yards and kick a field goal. Shit like that is cool. But these days, you can't really do that. And that hasn't worked well for many other teams to try to do that. And this was another example of that. So I think with that, you got to just let Joe be Joe, like let him be the guy that you pay to be, you know, the leader of your team. And they didn't do that on Sunday. We go for more North division. By the way, the NFC North hard knocks is going to be cold. I'm really looking forward to watching that in December. Go to the NFC North, which is the vision that the beloved plays in. The only division, we all knew it was going to be a good division, but it's the only division of football with winning teams. You got the Vikings with five and oh, you got the lions who on Bobby, three and one. And then the both of the Packers and the Bears are three and two. I think that I really just see how the second half of season is going to go, because I still think powerful power Detroit is the best team in the division. I picked Detroit to go to the Super Bowl. I'm not going back off of that. I haven't seen anything to make me think otherwise. I do think their defense is not as good if he makes out of it. And I think they can be had, but I think just everything they've gotten that team just feels complete. There's something about Minnesota. Well, I just, I still don't trust it. And I don't even 100% know if it's just the Sam Donald factor, but I just don't trust it. You know, even like Sam Donald didn't look spectacular yesterday, I think that they still have a really good chance to win the division. I do think there'll be a playoff game, which is way better than I think anybody thought they'd be coming into this season. But some just ain't smelling right, man. I can't just put my finger on it yet about them when it comes to you. Yes, you can. Is it just is it just the Sam Donald thing? Yeah, he damn they gave away the game yesterday to the Jets. You got there right at Sam Donald. When is when is the slipper gonna fall off that motherfucker? Right. It was almost it was almost just if Aaron Rodgers wasn't asked, it would have been yesterday because he shows trying to get that goddamn ball away. Then plus with if Aaron Jones has to see some time off because of the hip because he definitely fucked up my parlay yesterday. But if if if he has to spend some time out because of that hip, you know, do they have the horses behind that office of line to take the pressure off of Sam Donald? So no, shouts out to y'all being five and no. But yo, that that slipper can fall off real quick. Matter of fact, was that the my remember when, when y'all was y'all was shorties. The Miami Dolphins went seven and oh, I believe it was or or nine. They won nine in a row, actually. And they lost every game after that. So with Scott Mitchell being their quarterback. So yeah, they could be five and no right now. They could win these next couple of games. That don't mean shit when you really get to the to the the meat and potatoes is this this season. And that's towards the end. And you know, and then that's why they've only played one division game against the Packers. And they beat them down, but they almost tricked it off. They almost tricked. I really want to see what they're going to be like where they play the pack. I mean, I packers again. I want to see what they like when they play Detroit. And honestly, that keeps saying, we got defense. I'm going to keep talking about shit. Like, look, that's different thing. We go against our defense. I'm sorry. That's why I'm just not really worried about it. And I said the beginning of season, I'm going to stick three teams coming out this division going to the playoffs. Some team going to be asked out and I hope they ain't the beloved. Dante, what you think about this about the division and how they played so far? Yeah, first of all, then you say, I've got to excuse me. I'm a whole thing. I definitely had to stand up back is killing me. But no, I think this is I agree. I think we're going to have three playoff teams come out the NFC North, like 100%. Who's going to be that team out? It remains to be seen. I still think surprisingly, it might be Green Bay because I'm still high at home in the soda just because of the coaching and the defense. And I think Sam Darnell will do enough to get that team to play off. So man, you make a very good point. We'll be young niggas when that happened, but we have seen teams start out hot and then collapse. But I also think this is a well coached football team. They'll be able to coach around any mistakes that Sam does make to the point where he'll be able to make the playoffs. I know it's a 17 game season now, but when you're able to give yourself a five and no cushion, that helps out a lot. It's kind of like golf. Even you can have a couple blow up holes. But if you get those bars in there, your score going to look good at the end of the day. So I think this is a team that even if they don't win the NFC North, they'll be able to make playoffs. And so I think yeah, bro, I think this division is really good. We've talked about it for the last couple of years, just the way that they built it and the ways continue to be built. But I think now we're finally about to see like this division is going to take off. What do y'all think about the chart these first couple of games? Because they've been pretty, but they've been getting it done. And then you said they were going to struggle a little more this year. They were playing the first place schedule. I do think them not playing outside yet, it's helped a lot. What do you think about the chart four days in? They could be had. I'm not going to say that they're overrated. They write what they need to be. But they can be had, especially with a team like the Bears who their head coach has played that team well. And then they also got a coach who will fuck up the bag. So they are where they're supposed to be. I just don't know if it is Super Bowl worthy. They're defensive backs. They need some help back there too. They thought that they upgraded that during the draft, nor free agency, and they still kind of. So that's that's the area that I think you need to worry about with them. Orlando, first of all, Lando said Dante got the Michael Porter Jr. back, which is. And he's got a good point. If you can block Aiden Hutcherson, you got a chance against that defense, man. We're gonna do a week six preview, man. We got 20 minutes to do this. And we're going to bring Larry Legend in around the six 15 central mark. And then we're going to wrap the show up, man. Like I said, it's no show on Friday. So we're going to do our picks in our preview here today. We're going to stop. If we was keeping school, I think I'd be up right now. I stopped taking school, which I just stopped adding it up. I don't know. I think me and you both doing pretty well. I don't think I've been hitting them upsets, though. You've been hitting the upsets. You've been hitting the upsets up up special and the Seahawks was upside. What do you think is lost to the Giants? Yeah, don't think it's fucked up. I just got them in tonight. It's both of them bitches. I had to look at the city. I was like, am I reading this right? The Giants won? And I saw Mariano post his IG story. Your team just also tried his organization like the Giants. Like everybody must have won. Week six kids saw Thursday night football in San Francisco, San Francisco 49ers. We just got beat by the Arizona Cardinals last night to the Seattle or we'll play some Seattle man, man, man. One week, they look like the greatest offense ever. Simple. Next week, they look like they never played football before. I said the Niners were done. I do not like this team without Christian McCaffrey. I think Christian McCaffrey's done. But this one for this game, Thursday night game is a rivalry game. A lot of stupid stuff can happen. I'm going to upset. I'm going to upset. I'm going to Seattle. I think Seattle finds a way to win this ball game on Thursday. We're going to me banging and dancing. I got Seattle on this one too. It's just something something does not feel right about the San Francisco 49ers. And when first of all, that game would have been over if Mason don't fumble in the Rams on to. Yeah. So, I mean, don't get me wrong. He's been a godsend as an undrafted free agent. However, this team sorely missed Christian McCaffrey. This is a game. This is a trap game for them. And we thought, that was a trap game for them. These division games are trap games for the Niners at this point. And I already told y'all that I don't think they was going to be as good as advertised this year. So, I'm going with the Seahawks. And we got a little bit of news. She writes, she writes, season is going to be over. I just saw Ian Rappaport say that his season is probably over, but the ACL probably is attacking the LCL. He's going to need to walk around prison. Yeah, he needs to be as swift as possible. But no, I agree. I told y'all, I think ever since we saw Brandon, I get slapped on the sidelines. None of his teammates have been going on up there in San Francisco. So, I'm going to go with the Seahawks. Orlando is right. That defense is terrible. But I think Gino, like, I've been pleasantly surprised with Gino. And we got to really give him his posture, because a lot of people wrote him off, said his career was over, and he's continued to play well. So, I'm going to go with Seattle. This generation is Jay Fiedler, nigga. Gino, let's build the Black Jay Fiedler. Black Jay Fiedler, nigga. We talked to your career was a rap nigga. This next game might be the debut of another highly drafted quarterback that is North Carolina's Drake May. Rumor has it to draw a male who claims he doesn't have that the lock room isn't in disarray. Might be throwing his rookie quarterback out there. And I think if he does that, that's malpractice. And if there's anything, look at this offensive line, don't get that kid killed. Don't get him killed. Don't put him out there, man. There's no reason whatsoever. Unless your coach percett is hurt. And even then, who's your third string? I might throw that nigga out there. If I throw my number three draft pick out in this mess, they'll be playing a team that is rolling right now. That is CJ Stroud and Houston Texans. Nice walk-off victory last night against the Buffalo Bills. Sean McGermot, you need your ass with as well for that game. I don't know how Josh Allen did. We come back in that game because that nigga, I use on Pluto all the way his head hit that headshot. Something Stefan did is ruining rappers' lives. Oh, Stefan Diggs is a nasty nigga. I wish we were doing some assumptions this week. He a nasty nigga, man. I'm gonna say, it's the reason they did that. They did that little video, and he was like, "Which teammate would you not let date your sister?" And everybody said Stefan Diggs. My favorite reaction was, who's the way where I received what they had over there? He's in Carolina right now. Feeling it was like, "Oh, Diggs, for sure." That nigga did not hesitate. That's how you everything need to know him. But Patriots Texans, Texas is gonna make quick work of these niggas, man. They gonna move on to five and want to start to see. CJ Stroud is, yeah, man. CJ that boy. CJ that boy, for sure. Man, you go ahead. Oh, I thought you're about to say something else because it ain't nothing else need to be said. Texas. Yeah, Texas is about to you. Ravens commandos. This is probably a game in a week next week. This game, by Footer X. How can that crazy to call him the commandos? That's what, uh, that's what a Bo Monty is doing. Bo Monty be calling him the commandos. I just thought that was funny, as I continued calling him the commandos. The Baltimore Ravens, man, this is going to be, even though I was informed by multiple Washington D.C. residents that Baltimore is not part of DMD. It's not. I still don't understand the logic of that, but that's what I was told. So I won't call this the battle. It's like Chicago, it's like Gary in Chicago land, like Gary ain't Chicago land, but it's right there. Right there. That's the best way of explaining it. That makes sense for us. Okay. Okay. I respect their wishes, and I won't call this the battle with the DMD, the battle with the twos and doos. This one right here, in Baltimore, I think this is what you're going to really see where Jay, Jay and Daniel's first test is on Sunday. Yeah. These niggas ain't the niggas you've been going up against. Rocha on Smith got homicide on his mind. You know what I'm saying? Like Malan Humphrey is going to snuff out bad balls thrown his way. That is a defense that sees violence. They go ahead hunting. You saw they did the Josh out of the cup weeks ago. You know what I'm saying? This is going to be the test. So Jay, you go out there and play well. Hats off. That kid is incredible. And also, that commander's defense. We're really going to see how bad they are because Derek Henry, Lamar, they going to do that thing for this one. I think it's going to be a very, very good game. But I think Jay and Daniel's gets his first welcome to the NFL moment. I think the Ravens win this one. I think the Ravens win this one big. I'm going Ravens. Ravens in a route. I believe they're all of that hype that they was giving Jay and Daniel's. I think that defense is going to smash the commanders. So I got the Ravens by at least 10. Yeah, Ravens by 14. Ravens by 14. That's it. And like I said, I'm a Jay and Daniel's fan. But let's be very clear. If you ever ask game, you will be hearing from me. Eagle's Browns. Eagle's coming off there by week. The Phillies are having a good run so far. Some people might forget that the Eagles have been kind of meant this year. But fortunately for them, they're going up against top two worst quarterback in the NFL right now. That is freaky showing. Look, this thing gets worse and worse every week. It's just terrible. I think the Eagles, it's a little get right game for the Eagles, man. I think the Eagles win this one over the Browns. Boy, if the Eagles lose this game, like this, I don't think Kevin Safansky is going to get fired unless he just defies ownership. To me, it's clearly an ownership decision, the reason why the Sean Watson is still playing. The only way I see it's the fancy getting fired, if you say, fuck y'all for him, I'm starting the person that I need to start. But if the Eagles lose this game, do that as getting fired. That's how bad this could be for them. And that's crazy, because Safansky a good coach, man. Yeah, he's a, yeah, he's a very good coach. But I also think he's being handcuffed. So this is the somebody getting fired game. He came to be the Sean Watson. It could be the Sean Watson and Kevin Safansky. It could be Sir Yani, but somebody might not have a job after this game. My pick on that, it's going to be Sean Watson. He's getting fired at this game. He might not last the whole game. We're going to see James Winston in this game. Whoo. Yeah, it's getting ugly. It's getting ugly in Cleveland. I don't think the coaching Philly is a good coach. And one of my things is, is, um, if you're a coach that don't call a place, like, nigga, you don't need to be there. We don't need to, you know, we don't need a, you know, this is not an orchestra. We don't need a conductor. You sit here and say, Hey, you do this, you do. Well, you're CEO. Yeah, no, we don't need all of it. I don't like the other niggas. It's more experienced than a CEO. Yeah, I don't know. I'm not a fan of CEO coaches. So I think, you know, that's going to eventually the rubber's going to meet the road there. But I think this week, the Browns are just bad, bro. And I think got to get rid of why it's not to get to the point where, I don't, I don't care how much you're paying them, sit them down until you can figure out a way to get out of that contract. But no, he should not be your star and quarterback. Because like you said, week by week, it's the same thing. And I know last week we shot him some bail because he hit, uh, a Mark Cooper in the chest and it was picked off, but no, he'd be throwing up some bull shit. A lot, like a lot. And so I think there, you know, that has been the worst contract in NFL history. I don't think there's any save in that. I'm gonna go with the Eagles. The Eagles better win this football game. Hey, I was funny about that too. It was like, who's going to make the decision on that, that you got to sit the Sean down because that's a lot of money. And I think, like, first of all, I love every moment this for Cleveland fans because y'all was wild thirsty. I saw so much nasty stuff on the train originally went down that, and you, you deserve this. I like, you deserve everything that's happened to his franchise. Like did y'all hear Terry Bradshaw say that he hasn't yet put down? Yeah, I watched that shit live. And I was like, wait a minute. And that was like, hold on. I feel you, but I don't feel you. Like I feel you, but yo, you bro talking about it. Like put down might be a little, little crazy. How he was like, uh, no, what you trying to say? He ain't running though. Yeah, that's also what I thought too, like, I don't know if he might need to get put down. They might need the old yellow buddy, like keep your hands to yourself. But yeah, this is the only decision, Scott. This is the only decision. This is the Haslam family. Was that was that Jerry or whatever. And D has them. This is their decision. It was their decision to sign them. It was their decision to get them, give him a guaranteed contract. It's going to be their decision to be like, you know what, fuck it. This might be the game because if I could remember correctly, the Haslams come from the Eagles. So it's like, yo, um, we, we, we, we can't lose this one, Jack. So that's why, and, and the weird thing about this is it's chemistry. Uh, stuff is in the middle of this shit. Could he get fired if he do some shit like that? Or could he do? What's my man named Kenny Akerson, when he was, when, when Kevin Durant, they don't start putting too much dip on a chip or he won the plan, then nigga was like, man, I'm cock with now. I'm gonna have fun with this shit. Yeah. That might be it, man. Um, next year, Packers head back to the career to play the Arizona Cardinals. You never know which version of the Cardinals you're going to get. But since it's at Lambo, I don't think you're going to get good Cardinals. Uh, I think that we have man, man, walking around, running around there pretty crazy. That defense is, you know, it's, it's, I don't think it's as good as we think it is, but it's going to be enough to shut these niggas down. Oh, we'll bring back. We'll bring back this win. Defense is going to win this one. Man, man, they ain't snapping off shit. Green Bay. They ain't believe them saying this. I'm going to go to Arizona. I think, you know, they, they come to the Midwest, get a dub and head back to Arizona. I'm going to go with the Cardinals. Uh, next, we got an NFC South battle. The Saints are actually about to kick off in about an hour. So we know, like I said, we're doing this early because there's no show on Friday. So we don't even know what their current record is going to be in a couple of hours. But if I, if I were, if I was somebody with a brain, I would say, I'd take a patch of holes in homes. I'm pretty sure they're going to lose today. Um, they would be headed back to the crib on Sunday. They played the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. We're coming off a crushing loss to the Atlanta Falcons game. They should have won. Uh, I think the Saints are coming back down to reality slowly, what they're getting there. Um, I just don't believe in their car. And I think that Baker, the bake show and the boys, I think they bounce back and they get a much needed division win next week. I got the Buccaneers in this game right here. Yeah, I got the bucks. Uh, man, shout out to everybody in Tampa. I know they got another another hurricane coming over. Everybody's safe, but now I'm definitely going with the bucks. Uh, this next game is the young ball. Uh, we got the Titans, uh, another team who was on winning last night. Um, I think the Titans are just, I mean, both of these things are bad, but I believe in Joe, bro, a lot, not Joe, but I believe in Joe Flacco a lot more than I believe in Will Evans, even this time in this career. And I think the Colts are going to get this dove on the road. Yeah, I got the Colts in this game too. Um, you're right. Like Joe Flacco is one of the best quarterbacks in the AFC and he's supposed to be retired or like doing what we're doing right now. So no, I got the Colts in this one in the close one. Uh, I just want to say it is a sad state of affairs for our black quarterbacks. When this old cracker keeps giving out the couch and playing better than y'all. So I don't need you, Nick, it's gonna be better. But I too, I'm gonna pick Joe Flacco and the Colts over the Tennessee Titans. Uh, Mason Rudolph will play. I think Will Evans is, I know he got hurt in Miami, but I think his least is getting a lot shorter. And you know, that team needs to win some football games. So you might see Mason Rudolph again, but I'm gonna go with the Colts. The worst part about this is when you realize that the coach drafted poor man's Jalen Hurts and you know how we feel about Jalen Hurts. Right. Exactly. Let the league and turnovers since week one of last year, like it's a hard for the start learning routes. Hey, man, look, uh, when you tie your coach comes out and say this, this quarterback is our quarterback. He's not your quarterback. I just want, I just want people to know that that is not the case. When Lovey said that rack start quarterback, we always had Cal Lord and coming up. Um, next game, man, Broncos charges. First of all, I just want to say Patrick So 10 is playing some of the best football I've seen and played to me. Him and General Johnson are the best corners in, in the game right now. They're playing shut down. He had two picks. Yes, that gardener meant you. Um, I still don't know what I feel about the Broncos as an offense. I think that both next has shown some comments, but I still don't think it's anything to think that he's going to be a really good option long term, but this defense is legit. Uh, the Chargers are, I don't know what Justin Herbert's status is going to be. Like I said, we're recording this on a Monday. I don't know what his status is going to be heading to this game, but it's in Denver. Um, I think this is going to be an incredibly stupid game. This is division game. But I think the Broncos defense is going to have enough because I just don't think that, uh, Herbert is 100% right now. So I'm going with the Broncos in a very, very close game. Broncos, about three Broncos, about three. That pass hurts, ain't might be defensive player to you. Yeah. So, but now Broncos, about three. Both next in the Broncos. Uh, I think year one for hardball game and LA is going to be, you know, up and down. I think the Broncos get it done. Uh, next game, man. Cowboys back in Jerry World going against the Detroit Lions and Lions coming off that bi-week. They're trying to go for them when we both, y'all, boys, y'all concerns about the Cowboys. The Cowboys are not a good team. They don't want injury. Still no Mike Parsons, uh, no Dexter Lawrence, uh, Dexter Lawrence, that's, that's Lawrence in New York. Who fucking say the, uh, that defense event who's out, the name has escaped me right now, but, uh, they're dealing with a lot of injuries on the defense. Um, and Detroit, I think Detroit's going to come in. They're going to win this game. Jerry Garth's going to be good. I'm a rise going to be good. We're going to continue to see that good running back tandem of Jamir Gibbs, Gibbs and DMO. And I think that this defense can shut the door, man. So I'm going to go with Detroit, uh, over the, over the Cowboys. This is like the, the two niggas who like to play on Thanksgiving. You talk about Lawrence is out, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And it ain't going to matter Detroit going to goddamn game. And matter of fact, now those tomorrow. And, and matter of fact, not only will they win this game, this game might not be close. This is going to be one of those games where the national media is going to be talking about this mark. The Mike McCartney need to get fired. Oh, yeah. That's, yeah. That's been still in for a minute. There's going to be a lot of coaches. I don't even think I'll make it to Black Monday, or whatever you got to call it, man. Don't say how you got this game going. Ah, I got Detroit. Let me stick with Detroit. I still think they're gonna get it. They got enough to get it done. Um, like you said, there hasn't been pretty, but they've been, been able to make shit work. Some of the woody short. Uh, this next one, another NFC South match up a team that the bill just took care of last night. The Carolina Panthers going to be headed home. Uh, to play the Atlanta Falcons, man, the Falcons are playing with good football, coach football. Uh, but Kirk curtains has been good. Drake London has been really, really good. Jesse Bates in that defense has been good. Man, I'll go with the Falcons. There's the Panthers are bad thing. The Panthers are, uh, in the number one pick battle once again. I really felt bad for Bryce Young yesterday. I was like, man, Bryce Young was number one traffic last year. Now he's that we lose him by 30 going out there a couple balls real quick. Like that, that, that was crazy. Now quickly life comes fast for you, man, but I'm going Falcons. That's what I think I was going with. That's what he's. Falcons. Falcons. Yeah, Kirk's been real, real comfortable in the A, you know, Charlotte Taylor Wicks taught him by the swag search. Um, we, you know, did a stay friend of the program to the roots. That's definitely been my guy, I think. Um, this next one Sunday night football, who booked this game? Like, Oh my God, bingles giants. Like, look, man, the bingles are a lot of things. The bingles defense, a lot of things. What they are not is attaining to the New York Giants at home on prime time. I'll go with the bingles in this one. It better be the goddamn bingles bingles. All right. Final game of next week, and we're going to bring Larry Legend here in just two minutes. That's Bill's Monday night football. We're going to really see how washed and robbed his hands. Monday night football at MetLife Stadium. Uh, this is actually the last time he played them. Uh, was Monday night football two years ago, not two years last year. We took this Achilles. Um, the bills coming off to tough losses, blow off loss of Baltimore last week. And then again, they really shouldn't have lost the last night to, um, you know, the Houston Texas man. But I think that, like I said, Aaron Rodgers is washed. I think that the offensive play calling by Nathaniel Hackett is terrible. I just don't see any way that that changes. I think the bills get a nice win back up here. And I think Josh Allen has a good game. Bills will win on Monday night football. My bad. I'm telling my son, um, you know, my son is a little bit thicker in size and he's trying to act like he's like, like a point guard and some shit. Like Nick, you better hit this guy there. Backboard. Uh, but Jets bills. I got the bills in this one. This, this, now this game talking about somebody getting fired is might mess around and be Robert Solaz, last game as the head coach of the Buffalo bit, mean of the New York Jets. Uh, yeah, one bills, one bills. Um, I, I think Aaron Rodgers is done. I think he really is cooked. I mean, it's unfortunate because he had a great career, but I think this is the end of the road. So, uh, I'm gonna go with bills. And we just got breaking news in pro football talk, shout out to Mikey. Send us a chat update. The latest lawsuit against Brown's quarterback, Freaky Sean, Sean Watson has been resolved per his attorney Tony Busby. We have now reached, we have now resolved our clients came with the Sean Watson settlement is confidential. So, uh, then that, then the two dollars this season. Right. Exactly. Exactly. Exactly. Man, uh, bam, man, we know you got to go and be a good black father. So we're going to let you, we're going to let you go ahead and do that. Uh, you'll be back next week on the show. Uh, you can find him at Jack Bang, also, just meet the platform. Anything you want to say? We get your badge. Appreciate that, man. I got to teach this boy some post moves again. He, he think he a point guard and shit. Don't look at me like that. Look, fam, you, you got titties, all right. So they're not going to make you a guard. They're going to, they're going to put your ass in the post. So we don't teach you some post moves today. Uh, but yeah, a new episode of the first black champ triple H for his mouth, uh, his foot in his mouth by using the, by using the time, I don't see no color. So we talk shit about white people who don't see color. Yeah, man. Y'all follow the band. We'll be back next week, man. Uh, we're going to bring in our guy, uh, our culture correspondent, uh, for another edition, uh, respect the culture with Larry Legend, man. Uh, Larry, oh man, it's good to have you, uh, back here, man. How you feeling, brother? I'm good, man. I can't complain man. Another day, another week with a bed as well. So well, yes, complaining about bro. It's a great week for me. Definitely a great week. Good to have you back, man. Uh, what, what, what's going on? Man. And the culture that we got to discuss, uh, internet trolls. That's my first one today, because this week, uh, let's start at the top. I'm seeing Drake. I'm sure y'all seen Drake, uh, I got some thoughts in there. Yeah. You know, he made the announcement about real friends and the lack thereof in the industry and whatever he was on stage still living his 2000s best life, you know, and I made a comment towards it because I felt like it was kind of loser activity. Like he still, he ain't over what happened over the year. Like he, he won't let that shit go. And that's the reason we get in these conversations. I made my, my, my, my, my comment towards that. And one of the fans, it was the craziest interaction of all the things that was said. Um, most of those things I, I, I mute before, uh, you know, I mute them. So I don't have to hear anything anyway. So if y'all are still talking to me, I wouldn't even know. But this guy says to me, I'm a goofy, and I've never been backdoored by my closest friends before. I'm glad I haven't. That's number one. Yeah. Saying like, I want to understand, you know, but I just thought, man, this is where I really want to go with this. And I just want to ask y'all opinion on this. Do y'all think stand fandom should start being counted as a mental illness? I think so. If you, if you get on that, dedicate your life to another human being, you should be in a war. I think nobody should be using a internet who's using it for those purposes. That's just my opinion. And I wanted to bring that to you guys to see what y'all felt about that. I think, yeah, when it comes to being a stand, like the term, the crazy thing about it is a lot of people don't even know what the term stand came from. Uh, it came, it came from Eminem. I know that song is what? 23 years, only plus years old. 24 years now, like I was on the Marshall Mathers LP, which is the second album. In the, in the video, dude was legitimately what you see on the internet now writing crazy letters to Eminem and, you know, saying, uh, you know, I got a fifth of a, he's like, I got a fifth of a damn near the drive. Like that's basically what you're seeing now. It's crazy fans. I don't think there's a problem with being a fan. I actually think, I actually wish there was more people who were just fans. I think too many people try to get into content or two of these different spaces, but they don't need to be doing it. Just be a fan. And so I feel that there is cool to be a fan. And even if you walk around and say, I'm a stand, I think that's funny as long as you're not actually doing it. Like I'm a Jay Z stand too, like by joking. But I'm not going to be out here, you know, what Jay, I would Jay wouldn't do this year. Yeah. Like just just being the way that something niggas are. So I think from that perspective, it is with Drake fans. Drake stands like, oh, like Nicki Minaj and, you know, the beehive a little bit, but actually worse because it's grown men. You know what I'm saying? Like it's grown men. Like I feel like Drake's female fandom has dropped tremendously over these last couple years ever since he started making a lot of in-sale albums. And I think that this, I just think that Drake's not taking this launch very well. Like I think if you're a grown man, if you're pushing 40, I'm going to be 36 in three weeks. And Drake is two years older than me. So Drake is two years older than me. Yeah, if you're pushing 40, he's my fake fans. That's somebody who's been in the industry as long as he has. You should be used to this. You know what I'm saying? And, you know, he's not taking it where I saw. And first of all, and it goes back to the way Kendrick played his beat was just Chef Kiss because he hit him in so different ways, you know, you know, trolling like a bitch ain't you tired. He's still doing that with the Solage picture. Like, hey, brother, there's certain trees with Jay saying, don't bark up that tree. That tree will fall on you. Jay ain't gonna rap at you. Jay got power now. You know what I'm saying? Like, it ain't even a rap that you got to worry about. And I feel like he's doing a lot. And when it comes to trolls, if you look at the person they're standing, it makes sense. Because if you're standing somebody like that, you're just going to come out as overall real. But I think it's a sickness. And even toward if you see some of the men, I posted the picture on seven at the Hallows today of Ken LeBoyam's meeting Derek Rose and, you know, taking a picture with Derek Rose's kids and some of the old Derek Rose sitting on the train and saying, but like, it's your mental, you know what I'm saying? Like, so I do think it's the illness though. Yeah, no, 100%. And like, it just, you know, it goes back to the fact that, you know, fan is a derivative of fanatic. So like, when you go from fan to stand, people don't realize, like, you're doing too much. Like, that's the whole point of the word. Like, you're doing way too much. And this is not cool. This is not acceptable. This is going beyond normal appreciation for what somebody does. Because I mean, as, you know, it's not the wrong with showing love to your favorite creators, we all do it. Like, we understand the work they put in, we understand what they do. But when you get to the point where you're going online and you feel like you have to defend this person and you're trying to get into fights with strangers that, you know, you don't know them, that that's taking it too far. And that's, and that's something that has been accepted too much. Like, always say, bring back Shane, we need to shame a lot of niggas, bro. Because it's like, bro, you're a loser. Like, it's way more important shit going on. And you'd be sitting here telling me about Drake and how he really won this. And well, if you listen to this bar and break this down, well, actually, I know, like, just say you like Drake and leave it at the law firm, you didn't win from his moving from the way he's moving. And as somebody who's been a Drake fan for the longest, I put a lot of people on Drake. This has been really disappointing the CG, the way he's been moving. And then like you said, when you keep having these sore loser ass posts after the fact, it's like, nigga, you lost, like, stop trying to be your base. The six niggas who think you won, you lost, bro. If you bring this back up, it's only gonna get worse. Kendrick tried to get you a little bail in the Super Bowl commercial, no round two. It's like, that was pretty much him saying, Hey, shut the fuck up. Like stop, because this can go way left and get worse for you again. Like he said the rapper, the rabbit hole was deeper. And you know, he stopped. So be thankful that he stopped. So this shit is lame. I can go further, I promise. That's all I remember. And also think he mad too, because that 100 gigs thing ain't hitting like, this one I knew that Drake kind of lost his touch. Usually Drake just call for the track and it's gonna hit top 10. None of those records even hit the top 25. Like, you know, and Drake, when he put out all for all the dogs last year, I think like eight of the 10 top 10 were from the album. So that to me is like, well, I feel like he's acting a little bit. So who is the Drake of sports? DeShawn Watson? That's a shout out our guy, Jay Hood in the chat. Who is the Drake of sports? I don't know. We got a sitting thing right there. Honestly, this is, I'm not comparing it to, but I think LeBron is just a Drake of sports. Like, don't do Brown like that. I think I think I know I can't let you do Brown like that. That's a lot, bro. And I'm not talking about like who they are as people. Drake is much lame with in LeBron. Yeah. He's much more lame with in LeBron. But sometimes LeBron be doing love it too much too. Like, did you saw his tweet storm this week when he was talking about somebody's, well, I think when the Celtics announces was like, oh, you know, how did LeBron having a scapegoat? And LeBron was like, what do you use a Jay Z line? Get off my dick. You have some preference for his eye. That's funny, but let's be real. They're always in the scapegoat on your team. And I'm going to sound like a hater and I'm fine with that. Look, I'm brawny and brawny that one day one game already. I'm sorry. My man get a week with his son. He finna be playing on the South Bay Lakers. We ain't got to do all this. Did you see Gee, did you see when LeBron checked in and he speed walked over next to brawny so you can get the LeBron? That's what I'm talking about. He only can sell it on the quickest. Okay, I see. That's what I'm talking about. It's intentional. And I'm not hating on his his kid being a drafted, whatever, even though the war is came out. We, the war is like, we was going to draft that nigga. We looked out for Brian. You know what I'm saying? Like, he said, yeah, get a gone change out of him. All right. I don't look. I ain't got a show. I ain't got a change like that. Look, I am brawny and brawny out already. I've seen people say, Oh, if you're a hater, you, you're, you're, you're, uh, bumpy Johnson or bump Johnson, or Slick Johnson. I said, whoa, no, what was, um, my man, Dave Spare on Slick, not Slick, but Dave Spare on a play haters ball, Silky Johnson. I'll be Silky Johnson to tell the truth. I, if this was a, oh, Brian, he's really, really good situation. I wouldn't have a problem with it. He's going to be on the South Bay Lakers before Thanksgiving. Stop it, man. I ain't going to say that. Go ahead, Larry. You can go to your next point. Hey, I'm with y'all on that, man. That's only been one preseason game. They had a whole article about the math. Yeah, two point. And somebody else have a two time. All right. We're going on the second topic for real, uh, real quick, man. I know if y'all haven't been paying attention, it's a guy who's famous, um, from YouTube. And he's also famous for his ex-girlfriend now, DDG. Uh, so he got like two videos, three videos out where he's going around giving bad advice, telling people to nine to five. So only for you to become an entrepreneur. No, he wasn't like that. Uh, he made a post week this week. If y'all didn't see what he basically announced that he was breaking up with his girlfriend, who we think is we know more than we know him. Um, he got really upset when Joe Button brought it up on his show and said he didn't understand why we were even caring about what DDG had to say about anything. And, uh, you know, DD got upset. He'd been going that Joe Button all week since then or anything. Any platform he's invited to, he's been going to Joe Button. I just want my question to y'all. It's because I know why I stand in this. I think that some people need to understand that being famous in their world does not mean you're really that famous. Now, I'm not talking about his dollars, you know, he's worth more money than his ex woman. So people bring that up as to say, uh, she didn't, he, he don't need her or whatever, but I, I beg to differ. My question to you guys is, is, is it fair to say that some internet celebrities have delusions about their reach? Oh, you know how like YouTubers, they got this mindset that they're really stars because they make money and they got views on YouTube. But like, my grandma gonna know Haley Bailey before she'll ever know DDG. Yeah. And people got that shit a little twisted, but I just want to hear y'all opinion on that. Also second, it's a two part question because you all have a platform and you know, we do this. Do you think having an opinion without being a journalist is the same as being gossipy because that was something that was being brought up about Joe Button, him even commenting on a situation is kind of like gossip news. And I just feel like we, I don't give people the same. I don't give everybody with a platform the same. I don't hold them to the same standard as a journalist. So my two questions to y'all again, if y'all didn't hear me, internet celebrities, do they have delusions about their reach? And it's having an opinion the same as gossip when it comes to podcasting. I think that, yes, there is a difference between that because the other one is a halle or halle or Haley is halle. I think it's halle. I think he's name. She's name. She's name. Holly Bailey. She played fucking little mermaid, my nigga. Like she's Disney famous. Like she has DDG. I don't see is he a rapper or is he like a consecrated? He's like a streamer or something. I started off as a streamer and got into the rapture. Okay. All right, well, I think that, yeah, he might, he makes more money but it doesn't matter because when it comes to fame and who people know, and I think if, you know, just the fact he's putting out a press release, we wouldn't care if he wasn't with Halle Bailey. Like that's just really what it comes down to. Two day breakup all the time. And then I also think too, when you said about Joe Button, I think that the line between journalism and content creation is very blurred now. Like even, and I think a lot of journalists, rightfully so, are angry about that because they have the non-buyer. They have to be non-biased. They look the school for this. And even people like me, I don't consider myself a journalist. I have a platform. I research myself. But I'm different from an actual journalist. I respect actual journalists too much. But with Joe Button, he has a right to comment on because whether you want to look at a nut, Button is probably at worst top two biggest names in hip hop or black culture media, no matter what you want to say about Joe Button. I saw the video when he was on a podcast, which is even funny that you're dissing Joe Button and putting on a podcast because outside of Combat Jack, Joe Button is the reason for a black podcast to be as big as they are, no matter how you feel about Joe. Joe's the only one who's making money money from podcasting. A lot of not niggas making money from pie. He still is. Rory and Marl, they got a big pie, but theirs ain't what Joe's is. I know white people who watch Joe's. Joe's is the only one if you look at the top podcast rankings, he's up there with the Joe Rogans and all the white niggas who got podcasts. Yes, he's right to comment on these things. You had one hit long time ago. The fact that we're still talking about pumping up 20 years later, just shows you as long as you, me, I don't know why people act like this is some funny joke and Joe is is succeeded in a second career. I think he's just salty and when he's not, if he doesn't get backward with her, we're going to forget about him. I think and he knows that and I think that's why he's last now. And this is one of those things I talk about all the time with the homies. A lot of people have main character syndrome where you feel like no matter how, how, you know, bright your light is, you feel like you're the star of all stars and everything revolves around you. And it's like, what do you mean you don't care about me breaking up with my girl? And it's like, nah nigga, we don't care. Like, I feel you, you have your following, you have a couple views and it's one of those things with the internet. But like, I always say this, the internet is the greatest terrible invention ever, because now you have millions, you have millions of idiots who can get on the same page and link up and say, nah, bro, you're right. And they'll sit there and gas each other. And you know, no disrespect to DDG, because I mean, I was one of the two people I found myself defending bro just because women would always try to shit him. And it's like, no, he got his own thing going. Like don't get me wrong. Holly is definitely the bigger star of the relationship. But bro, he had his own thing going. But when you have that first person, main character syndrome, where it's like, I am the biggest star of them all. And like, what do you mean that you don't fuck with me? And it's like, nah, my nigga, that's not how the world works. Like, there's not one person on this planet who is loved by everybody. It just don't work like that. You know, it don't matter who you are. Like, that's never been the case. So a lot of these young dudes, they be so caught up in that. And then they get, we, you know, we create, we create this insulated bubble where everything is like what we want to hear people that's going show love. It's no constructive criticism. It's nobody that sit there and say, yeah, bro, you do this good, but you probably need to do this better. You know what I'm saying? So when you used to only hear what you want to hear, that's why you had these arguments like this. Because with Joe, my whole thing with Joe to your second question, I don't think there's nothing wrong with people giving their opinion. I think people take opinions too serious and get emotional about it and want to fight you and want to argue you down. And the reality is, bro, for example, I'm sitting here in Atlanta right now. Whatever I feel about DDG, don't fucking matter. That nigga living in LA, he living his life, he got his money, he doing what he doing. So for you to allow that to affect you, that just talks about, you know, that just shows like how self-centered people are and they really like, what the fuck do you mean? Like, how can you not agree with me? And it's like, that's just not how the world works. I don't have to agree with you. And you can still do everything you want to do. So that's just that first person syndrome where everybody's like, nah, man, it's me, nobody else, and that shit silly. That's the gift and the curse of the internet because everybody has a voice. And I said it's giving the curse because as much as the internet gets on my nerve, I wouldn't be able to do the show without the internet. You know, I asked somebody, stopped me outside of Soldier Field yesterday and said they was fan of the show like 10 years ago, I wouldn't have been able to do this right now. So the internet is a good place, but I also feel like there needs to be a little bit of a kind of bring you down the route. If you have a lot of rappers out here who big on the internet, but they can't fill out a stadium, you know, they can barely fill out an amphitheater, you know what I'm saying? So I do think that there's levels to stuff. Yeah, DDG might have more money than a Halle Berry, but she's Halle Berry, she's bigger than him. And the nigga here dissing Joe Button is bigger than him. You walk down a random street right now in Chicago, New York, LA, you ask him, have you heard of DDG? Have you heard of Joe Button? 99% of people are like, oh, I heard of him, they never heard of do. And so that's why I feel by understanding his feelings are so I get it. I'm not really mad him, but I do think there's a difference behind it. But let's go to your next topic. I know he's having the latest internet issues, right? We're gonna see if we still got them back. Let's see if we can add them back to something right here, but Bob, we got some bears news while we wait for Lero to get his internet back up and gone. Chicoa Brisko is in concussion protocol and will not be traveling with the team to London tonight. This is according to Chris Emma of I think Chris is with DDG. I don't want to mess Chris affiliation up, but they say if he does, clear protocol that he will be able to join the team later in the week. That's definitely something met to monitor because he looked real. He after that hit. Yeah, I was joking, but they both looked dead. They both were face down on the ground. 82 took the brunt of the hit, but now they both looked like they were fucked up. Yeah, man. So we hope to join his brother because he even plays with good balls. So hopefully he gets out of protocol. Lero, we got you back. Your final topic. You got Steven Tyler now. Steven Tyler's with Aerosmith. What do you do this week? Yeah, I saw the picture, but I didn't see what he actually did. All right. So live, as y'all know, live, Tyler is his daughter. They got a lot of money, so they got a lot of time on their hands. So recently, Liv did a sit down with him. I'm gonna give y'all backstory on this after I tell you what happened. She got a sit down with him. She went and did some DNA work, on their blood work to find their family on his mother's side of his family. They know their father's side. They know his father's side, but they don't know anything about the mom's side. They go in and he's finding out his great, great, great, great grandfather. Her great, great, great, great grandfather. His three-time great grandfather was half black. And when she broke the news to him, he was the most excited white man I've ever seen in my life. He said, I knew it. I know that Nick wanted to get on the phone with Slash immediately. It was amazing. The witness, he said, I've always felt kin to the black people. And I was like, my auntie's growing up, bro. Like they love Steven, everybody. I know love Steven Tyler, bro. Up until recently. So recently, if y'all haven't been paying attention to the news lately in the last year, he has gotten sued or he's getting brought to court for something to happen in the '70s where he legally adopted this girl. And this is crazy because I'm gonna say this stuff and then I'm gonna ask you guys a question which is very crazy to ask. He legally adopted this young lady. I believe she was like 15 or 16. He was about 23, something like that. Whole time they were in a relationship and they were together for, I don't know how long they was together, but she brought him to court some years after that and claimed that she was basically forced and used the, what was the word, groomed into this relationship with him and whatever she wanted some money. They said no to her back in a day. She comes back with the case nowadays because it's a new world and they are saying, okay, you might got a case now. And now, so what I'm reading is, is that Liv is trying to like save his image because someone else from those days also said he did this with another girl when she was 14. A lot of crazy shit going on. Now, my question to you guys is after this, after all of this, of course, we find out he wants to be black. He's black after all of this legal shit. That's the worst part of this. But do we accept Steven as a part of the community? If we could take away all of this shit, I just said before I said that y'all was just as happy as he was. Now, do we accept this guy as a part of our community? This is like the racial draft on a Japel show. I don't think that I think it's too far removed. Like if it was like his grandfather, and I might even, you know, give him some bell. This is a great grandfather. Great, great, great, great, great. The niggas don't even know you exist. You know what I'm saying? I don't know if y'all been watching the new season of Love is Blind, but what's the ginger folks who were shorty? He's like, oh, I found out that I'm a quarter black. I was like, come on, I'm not gonna be like that. When I saw the story of Steven Taylor like the same day, bro, I was in tears. I'm like, this is fucking Steven Tyler. He's another 3% black nigger, but we all like niggas from America, we all white. I got white in my blood. I know we all got something. Yeah, we all got something. This is, this is my barometer for actual black. Now, whether you claim was a different conversation, there's a lot of niggas out here who are black who ain't really black. But if you got a at the minimum, a black brand parent, I believe you can say nigger, and you know what I'm saying? Like anything else back to that, it gets a little shaky that we're gonna fall back into any ancestry that might be a whole bunch of different races in there. But Steven Tyler, your contribution to music and even helping hip hop blow up, we give you credit for when you are not black, my God. And especially after these nasty man allegations that are coming out right now, absolutely not. Yeah, I almost got 100% you already dealing with the downfall of Diddy, we ain't for the ass niggi. You adopted women so you can fuck them. That's a problem, sir. We are not putting that on our doctor. Two of them. Two of them, Jimmy, can't do that. No, but I agree. Like, and it's crazy because you'll see like the saying go, you know, everybody want to be a nigger. It was time to be a nigger. So like, he was excited. He's all moving. He was excited. Like, yeah, you know, I do all this music. I'm black. I knew and I felt this connection. But when we struggling out here, I ain't never heard Steven Tyler speak up about shit. So I don't want to hear none of that, bro. So no, like, I'm not honest. I also feel like, you know, a lot of people go too far because we always talk about the new blacks and the people who didn't get comfortable with the blackers until they got the college. So now they want to be the nigga police and tell people who they can say and all of that. I'm not with that, but at the same time, shit like this, no, Steven, you don't get to jump on the bandwagon and now you're black. And your ass is, how old is Steven Tyler, 65? He was 80 to be black, my nigga. No, fam, you're good. You can come kick him on large, my nigga. Bro, he was alive and well at that time. He was going to get some little girls to bring it home. And even if you're not black, if you felt a kinship to black people, I want you more active, my nigga. You're like, you know what I'm saying? Like Frank Sinatra, at least saying one of Dr. King's marches, my nigga, like what are we doing? Frank Sinatra open the door of Vegas to all the black blackers in it. Steven Tyler did do the song with, you know, with Grand DMC. I guess that's the moment. Which one DMC did not want to do the song, by the way. When he gave us, you know, he said, well, this way with these shell toes, you know what I'm saying? Like he put the shell toes in the hood, then boy went crazy. But I'm with y'all on the science thing. I just wanted y'all to paint on that because I definitely feel like without these rumors or facts, whatever you did, my dude, without all of this stuff, I might even be like, yeah, you know, he honorable mention nigga. But you like little girls, you out my nigga. And if you say you black loud enough, they might arrest you today. You better be quiet, bro. In the words of Paul Boney, don't laugh too hard, don't come get me. Be careful with that, man. Lero, I just had one question before we wrap up. I'll be heading out the country for the first time on Wednesday heading to London. My question of view, do you have any low flight suggestions as a nigga that has a hard time sleeping on airplanes? Man, Scott, I'ma be honest with you, brother. I know you don't partake, but Adam, you're right. Do you some edibles and you'll be straight, get you a brownie or something like that? Because like them long flights, you're gonna wake up after four or five hours, you're gonna wake up and gonna be looking stupid. So your best bet, get you an edible because I woke up on them flights and that edible, you know, you get you a little fool, eat a little bit, turn on another movie. I watch John Wick on the plane, went right back to sleep, though. So like, my advice is an edible or, you know, just take you some pen and pad and write some ideas out, you know, do some of that type of creative shit, but edible, my nigga is like. Yeah, you're a girl, bro. I told them, I told them to be on the ground edible, get you a glass of red wine or two, you're gonna wake up in London, nigga. It's an eight hour flight or something like that. So it ain't too bad. So yeah, I got an hour layover in New York. So it's about a seven hour flight from New York. And when we get this like seven in the morning. So yeah, man, I'm looking forward to it, man. But Larry, man, anything you want to plug before we get you about it? I just got to say this because we ain't been on the show in a minute, man. Shout out to my boy, G Rose. It was, you know, hard as one of the craziest days of the year to me because, you know, we all knew this day was coming soon. But, you know, that man, he did a lot for us. Our generation like D Rose is the, you know, you look at him and you see niggas could make it from where we come from because that shit wasn't supposed to happen. No matter what, and it happened. So shout out to D Rose, a great career. He inspired the whole city and you go wherever you go, my boy, other than that, you know, y'all just keep rocking with me and looking out for the new stuff. That's all I got to say, man. And I love the love that D Rose got it so just filled yesterday, man, when he got showed on the jumbo trial, when I tell you it erupted, you had about 60, I mean, 50,000 people just chained MVP, which was beautiful. It was, I think it was PJ's birthday yesterday. So they had, you know, they put him out on a field. He's a, you know, Caleb Williams, linked up with him. It was cool to really see the love that D Rose deserves it. Yeah, I know they're gonna have Derek Rose date on January 4th. Retired of Jersey, man. Y'all got a couple months to make that.
