This is three years running. We also have an even more special guest. Jerry O'Connell is sitting in Hank's seat to start the show. So how it's going to work is J-o-C is here in place of Hank. Some may say Wally Pipp ever heard of him?
Jerry O'Connell might take Hank's spot.
Way to compete hank.
He's going to do Hot Seat, Cool Throne with us, then we're going to get to Chris Berman. And after the show, we'll have Hank on to recap his night of comedy, so you'll get it all in the entire episode.

Okay, let's go.
Boy.
Boy.
Now in the street, there is violence.
And lots of work to be done.
No place to hang out or wash in, and I can't game all on the sun. Oh, no.
We're going to rock down to Electric Avenue.
And then we'll take it higher, oh, we're going to rock down to Electric Avenue.
It's part of my take.
It's been about martial sports.
Welcome to part of my take. Today is Wednesday, February 7th. And Hank, you look different.
Yeah, um, you know, I'm just working. Let me try some of my material, knock, knock.
Who's there?
Climate change?
Climate change, Who?
I'm kidding, I'm not real, so I'm not really here.
That is Jerry O'Connell, by the way.
Oh, no, it's still hank.
It's still hank.
Hank, What do you think about your Patriots offseason?
Um, you know, I think it was good to hire coach Mayo. Internally, I think that's going to be good. Don't know what we're going to do in the QB position. I think Matt Jones is a little bitch. Hank. What's the deal?
What is the deal? Just tell me the background of Matt Jones. Is he? A because he seems to me to be a really wealthy kid. Is he one of these wealthy?...?
McCorkle Is that what it is? his name?
McCorkle, is that his name?
His name is McCorkle.
So his name is not Matt Jones, No.
Is his middle name McCorkle?
I think his first name is McCorkle.
I'm looking it up right now.
Michael McCorkle, Matt Jones.
Because he just.
And I'm sorry to get right into it about the Patriots, but I do want to say the NFL is better when the Patriots are losing. I'm sorry, think about this, I'm not kidding.
Think about this season and how exciting it's been, how many ups and downs, especially in the AFC. The Broncos were in it for a second, the Texans were in it for a second. Jacksonville looked good, I mean, there was a lot of teams in play.
And when the Patriots aren't in play, it's just more fun. It's wide open, it's just wide open. But Matt Jones....
Well, it's not really, because it's the chiefs.
I thought for a second, the chiefs weren't going to make it. I mean, I listened to you all religiously, I think you would all agree with me, yeah.
They flipped the switch, though.
We might have steered you wrong on that. Oh man, I put a couple futures on the Jaguars, I didn't put them on the Broncos. I almost did when they went through their little run.
I mean, of course, I had to, I seem to bet with this podcast for some insane reason.
Yeah, we're the poster boys for gambling responsibly.
Well, betting is so funny because when you hear people talking about something, it just gets in your head.
You're like, that was a good point.
Yeah, these guys know what they're talking about. Jerry, I love your jacket, it's awesome. I love any sort of Super Bowl or NFL-themed merchandise.
Yeah, it looks awesome, I think you just got it because I think they sold that downstairs.
I did, I just got it. I've been in Vegas now for a couple days. I actually hit it big in Keno, I was in Keno.
Had a huge score.
¿How much?
I mean, a lot of money. Not only did I buy this, let me show you the back of this jacket, too. If you're watching on YouTube, you don't get to hear it a rumble.
Yeah.
Wow, that's nice.
You just wanted to show off your ass.
No, I didn't only stop there. If you look at my pants, I actually bought a lot of clothes, I had so much money. Look at who makes these pants, Big Cat.
Oh, who makes these pants? The Bellagio makes those pants.
You got hotel pants?
The Bellagio makes those pants. He's getting up close. So for people who are like, Hey, why is Jerry sitting in Hank's seat? This show, we have the schwamm as the interview. Chris Berman Hank has been a diva all day.
He's basically been like, don't talk to me, I don't want to do anything.
That's just normal, hank, though.
Yeah, he's getting ready for his show, so we figured our good friend Jerry O'Connor will sit in Hank's seat for the start of the show. At the end of the show, we'll talk to Hank about how the comedy night went. But we have joc.
You have your briefcase. Should I ask? What's in the briefcase this time?
Oh yeah, I brought my briefcase. You guys were kind enough to allow me to manage your high-stakes fantasy team. How'd that go?
Terrible job. How'd that go, Jerry?
Darren Waller No matter what.
We never circled back on that.
You got kind of quiet. It was a terrible year and I wanted to take this time with you to tell you some things I learned from this season. And maybe you could find it in your hearts to allow me to manage your team again. You don't have to give an answer today. Uh-huh.
But just open the briefcase.
Okay, it's a Quentin Tarantino movie.
Oh, he's got sheets, Yeah, I made some.
Also, Jerry, you did give me an excedrin that was wrapped in a napkin.
Toilet paper, actually.
Toilet paper, Yeah, so that's just true friendship right now.
Are you sure that was an excedrin? Yeah, it looks like you're a mule.
How many notes do you have? Cut with a little? You have way too many notes.
Cut with a little fentanyl. No, I'll make it fast, I realize, I realize.
Wait, hold on, hold on, let me see this one thing.
Okay.
Patriots None ever Mack Jones seems like such a little bitch. NFL is better when the Patriots lose. It's more exciting, way more story. So you already did the Patriots?
I already did my Patriots bit, you know what? I'm just going to give you some things I learned this season.
Jerry O'Connell's This is a Good Jerry O'Connell recap Jerry O'Connell's 2023 season recap.
So let's start with the AFC East, okay, which was such an exciting division. When I came on your show in August, I said, Don't draft any dolphins.
Yeah, at all. How'd that work?
Well, that was a mistake because fantasy you basically score points from offense, yes, and their offense was as-.
Incredible.
Incredible as I've seen in my lifetime, actually.
Did their running back score any touchdowns this year?
I believe Mostert led the league. I think he had something like 21 touchdowns, so that was a mistake. I think I specifically said, stay away from Mostert. That was a mistake.
So I've actually changed my tune. All the Dolphins next season, if I were to be your manager, All the Dolphins.
What do you mean if you are, you have a lifetime contract?
Let's make him earn it back.
No, I'm going to give you a lifetime contract.
You know what, I'm going to fire you right now, Jerry, and getting your job back is contingent on how this goes.
This is what it feels like to be coach. Sirianni Sorry, sorry, Max.
Oh, I have a question. Is coach McDaniels annoying?
Yes, Josh McDaniels.
No, McDaniel Michael, Yeah.
MICHAEL McDANIEL Not annoying I don't think he's annoying.
No, not annoying if they don't win next year. Yes, annoying. hmm.
You don't think the pants, the culotte pants are like, a little like....
You're wearing Bellagio pants, that's true, I don't think you can judge.
The sunglasses all the time is a little bit much for me, yeah.
The reading glasses that you don't need.
Okay.
Bills.
The Buffalo bills were staying in the AFC east, all of them.
Yep, okay.
Every single one of them.
Stephon Diggs.
Is this your preview and your post?
Well, no, this is what I'm going to do if you do choose me as your....
Got it?
Got it, got it. So what happens in August when you come back? yeah.
I'm going to have some revisions if I make it back. The jets, absolutely none of them. It's a cursed franchise ever again. Not even Brees Hall, because Memes knows Izzy's going to vulture all those touches for him.
Pats none of them. Mac Jones is highly annoying.
I just can't draft any. let's move on to the AFC West. I can't draft any chiefs. I just can't do it. And I think it's funny.
Jake actually brought this up in his good-natured, annoying way, where he said that dynasties are good for the business. That was annoying of him. It made me think he was talking about how the Patriots helped basically build Barstool, but they're so annoying those dynasties.
If they're not yours, if they're yours, then there's nothing better. So you just got to find a dynasty that's your own.
Yeah, I guess I've never experienced that kind of winning in my life.
You married a supermodel.
Well, I know, but it's still....
I don't know if you've seen, but they're on the rocks.
We're not on the rocks, that's a joke.
I saw a report that said that you guys are on the rocks.
Yeah, I know.
We're constantly fighting with each other. But no lawyers have been called.
Okay, all right, good, I see the reports.
Isn't every marriage on the rocks?
It's true.
It's built on the rocks.
It's a nightmare.
We're here in Vegas, we're walking around, there's a huge convention, every female convention person that you walk past stares at you with those hungry eyes. I don't want a room.
And they're wearing a lanyard and you have to keep walking because....
I've seen the way women react around you, Jerry, they love you, they love Jerry.
I don't like the chiefs, they bother me. I don't want to say anything negative about Taylor Swift, but that just....
It's unfair that Taylor Swift was basically introduced to the NFL this year, yeah.
And she's already in the Super Bowl.
In the Super Bowl?
In the Super Bowl, it's like that.
It's just like these people need to know life doesn't work that way.
She should have dated someone on like, Yeah.
The Panthers? Yeah, the Panthers.
Yeah.
Go to Bank of. I want to see her at Bank of America Stadium week 16..
That's a fact, yeah.
You're right, making the heart sign to someone. I mean, like,....
Adam Thielen.
I want to see David Tepper pouring a drink on her.
Okay, Broncos AFC West, who is going to be their quarterback next season?
James Winston.
Maybe.
I don't know.
Great interview, Maybe Russ, Really good. great interview, good stuff.
A little long at times, but man, really, really good, that guy. wow, that guy can spin a yarn.
He can talk, Yeah, yeah, he can.
Good stuff, though, really good stuff. That was a good one. None of the Raiders, okay?
You know, the Raiders are like a talent vacuum. They've ruined Devontae, they've ruined Josh Jacobs. Look, a lot of O'Connell's in the league now, love that.
My last name is O'Connell.
But they're like a talent sponge.
None of the chargers AFC West.
Harbaugh.
I just don't see it. It's like buying a dilapidated Victorian home, It's like not going to be inhabitable for years.
Oh, he's Harbaugh.
But you're a Chargers fan?
I am and I am a Chargers fan because there's I don't mean any, I don't mean to offend any Chargers fans. But it's like, so easy to get tickets there, it's like the parking's way easier.
There's no waiting, you can wait the whole game and get right out of that parking lot. It's like, pretty easy.
But not yet chargers.
AFC A significant thing happened last season and you guys didn't really talk about it, you talked about it a little bit.
I'm big on the Bengals, I like them, I love their offense, I love Joe Barrow, I love Joe Mixon.
I talked about everybody here.
That withholding of the information about the hand thing. I actually bet that game and I love a money line, I love a close money line. Bet. Because you get some odds and you're not looking at points. And that to me is like, I try to bet singularly. I think that's the way you win money.
Is that you don't have an exotic? Is that you have one bet, and if someone's an underdog by three points, that money line bet? That's my jam. And I took the Bengals that week thinking, Oh, well, he's not on the injury report. I know he wore that cast and he was photographed with the tape on his thumb, but it's nothing because it's not on the report.
We're now in an age where everyone is gambling, it's legal, it's no longer done with a bookie, this is like money.
That man needs to be on that injury report and I'm sorry to say, there needs to be repercussions and I'm done with the Bengals.
That's the repercussions.
Yeah, yeah.
Sorry, that's the repercussion you're done with them. Jerry will no longer draft their players onto his fancy team.
Yeah, the worst fate you could have.
Yeah.
AFC South Jaguars I'm all in on the Jaguars all in.
May I ask why?
I don't know, I just have a feeling they're going to. You know, like the first time I came on your show, I told you I had a thing for the Jags. And just, I think they're going to move to London. I just can't wait for English people to be like, Nigel, did you hear the Jaguars are coming? The storied history of the Jaguars?
Frederick Taylor, Marcus Brunel, The Great Maurice Jones Drew, Sir Maurice Jones Drew.
Like boos.
Right, or will they remain the Jaguars, or will they become like the Beefeaters or something?
Beefeaters would be good.
Or the beans.
Redcoats.
Beans, Yeah, redcoats.
The inbred monarchs.
Yeah, Colts, AFC South, I love the colts, all of them. Anthony Richardson's got to protect himself, but love him. Love Michael Pittman.
Yeah, Jim Irsay's okay, he's on the mend right now. Yeah, he tweeted a second ago. He's back.
Shout out to his mama.
Texans, All the Texans, except that one-two punch of single Terry Pierce isn't doing it for me. one-two knockout punch. But all of them, man Collins.
Tank man, what a team eagles. Max, you ready all of them, Max.
Every single one of them, all of them, we're back.
You are back.
So fun to watch.
How do you feel about Brazil? Max? The birds are open in the season in Brazil, I like that they're opening the season because that's just kind of an exciting thing. I don't like that.
It's counting as a home game. Yeah, that sucks.
One less game at the link.
Max You should, I mean, you should, make a trip down there.
Jared We could work on that.
But think about how many farts that is on an airplane.
A lot of farts on an airplane think about all the tfing we're going to be doing.
That's true, you might do some BFing in Brazil, yeah.
Just with the cheeks.
Just the cheeks, though, like hot dog in the buns. Yeah, will you? yeah.
That's by the way they're, I don't mean to generalize and stereotype, but they're known for their.
Asses Yeah, and that's like a lot of bfing.
There's a lot of BFing going on down there.
That would be so fun. I wonder if Max would never actually like, want to insert back there, if he'd just be like, I just want to. I want the friction from the rubbing on your butt and then, like a Brazilian person would be like, put it in place, Max now put it in.
And Max would be like, No, no, no, baby, I want the friction, this is what I want. No, no, no, this is my thing.
You know, this is my thing, I want the friction.
Please Max, please put it in.
Put it in now I want you inside of me. No, no, no, no, no, I'm not going inside. Stop saying that.
Shut up.
Bfing.
No, yeah, that's basically it, that's basically it.
On Friday night, too.
Yeah, Friday night, okay, I'm going to stand up for high school football here. I feel like this is encroaching on their territory, right?
Friday night, that's when the kids play.
That's what they did when they did the Jets-Dolphins game on Black Friday. They basically were like, Hey, this is coming, yeah, fuck high school, that's what they do.
They take every day.

Yeah, Fridays are weird also, you have to be careful, and I know as your former fantasy manager, you've got to set lineups for those Friday games. You forget about them and then they get locked in and you're stuck with someone that you don't want, Brandon Cooks or something.
Jerry As part of our review process for how the season went, what was our final record?
It wasn't good, I stopped watching. I'm so sorry, my name is my name, okay?
But I let you down this season. Yeah, big time.
Big time.
And the only thing to do is to get back up and start working again, and that's going to take us to the NFC East.
Cowboys need a second receiver, You know, I don't mind, I don't mind Dak Prescott, I don't mind the Cowboys. Tony Pollard was non-existent.
I think I told all the awls to draft him, I'm sorry.
He sucked.
He sucked, why?
Why did he suck?
When you're the backup, you get those carries after everyone does the hard yards and then.
That burst, you actually said that.
I remember you saying that.
And I was like, Oh, maybe we don't want him to be the featured back. He also had that knee injury that probably slowed him down a little bit.
Yeah, it was a bummer of a season for them. I mean, I'm sitting in Hank's chair, so I feel like I've got to defend them, yeah.
Great defense, though.
I am going to talk about Tiffany Gomez in a second. I'm going to save that, though, because I need to collect my thoughts. Giants. I want to apologize again to the Awls. I told them to waste their fourth round pick on Darren Waller and that was an error.
Darren Waller No matter what.
Yep.
Very bad, I didn't realize you fucked that up. Was it week one?
About halfway through week one.
Yeah.
Bad.
That was a real error.
Wow, and then I bet when Devito got in, you were like, Well, maybe there's going to be a connection there, maybe this is good.
It was a fun story until it wasn't, until everything came back down to earth. That was a good interview. love that interview, that was really good.
Sean Stilato.
The commanders.
Yeah.
What's going to happen with them?
We're going to be great in like, two years, two years.
This year we're going to get a quarterback.
Which one?
We got cliff, any of the three, any of the top three, I'm fine.
Interesting, yeah, what happens to Howell, who I didn't mind?
Howell is probably going to be a great backup, probably one of the best backups. Actually. We're cornering the backup market. We've got Sam Howell and we've got Jacoby Brissette. I think we're set.
Okay.
I didn't mind them, I didn't mind them early in the season, yep.
Until, like, week four, like really early in the season.
Just need to see if you guys rehire me, I just need to see what's going to happen. NFC West Why am I so? Why do the 49ers bore me so much? Why are they so boring?
That makes no sense.
Yeah.
It doesn't make sense.
No, it makes no sense.
They're fun.
They really are, yeah.
You don't like running a football.
It's just like, What do you want? like 20 points from all your starters every week? Is that what you want? I don't know, I'm so bored.
Hey, you know what? By the way, there's another. I don't want to make this about celebrity football couples, but there's a pretty famous football couple on the 49ers, you know? Olivia Culpo, Beautiful woman, Yeah, true. And Christian McCaffrey, arguably the best player in the league.
Like, nobody talks about, like nobody really talks about them. There's a lot for that. I'm telling you, there's a boredom that happens with the 49ers. And I know I've talked about the guy I work with, who always gets in my face. And he's just a volatile man, he's just a tattooed, volatile man who just always says to me, like, and the Niners just had one of those seasons this year.
He's always like, Yeah, you like the niners, right? You like them again, just steamrolling.
Yeah, nothing.
Yeah, the Packers didn't even put a scare into us, like we just for a second there, I thought, But look at us, the Niners punch you in the mouth. Football, it's just so I can't draft them, they're too boring.
It's 20 points every week, 20 points every week.
Yeah, that sucks.
Oh, let's talk about the Seahawks. Is Penix going to be their quarterback?
Oh, that would be cool.
Are you thinking, just because you went to Washington? Yeah.
Okay, and isn't there that makes sense? Hold on a second, you guys are no better than I do because you have fast internet. But who's the new Seahawks offensive coordinator?
Oh, I think it is someone from the Washington Huskies. Please look it up, Jake.
Jake They just hired Steve Belichick as their defensive coordinator.
Offensive Coordinator Jake waiting on, Jake, jake, jake.
Jake do-do-do, come on, Jake do-do-do, do-do-do.
Can't get it, this is sad.
What?
You're killing me, man, you're fucking killing me.
They might be doing interviews because he just got hired last week, okay?
Maybe they're doing interviews.
I don't think they've hired anyone yet.
Okay, I'm sorry, Jake, i apologize.
I apologize for not getting that info quick.
Don't apologize, like, I did you wrong, like, get mad, oh.
Apology off.
Jake say, I had no right to do, say that, you had no right to do that. Jerry. say it. just get mad, Jake.
You had no right to do that, Jerry. No, Jake.
Mean it.
You had no right to do that.
It was pretty good.
This is even faker.
Oh, I love the Rams, you know why? Because they don't score 20 points every week, they like, sometimes score like, sometimes Stafford is like 40 points, and then some weeks nothing.
It's so fun. The Cardinals, I got to tell you something.
Sometimes I'm not allowed to watch football in my house because my family is there and they watch reality TV. On Sundays, there's a show called 90 Day Fiancé that comes on on Sundays that my wife and my children watch. And so we have one. It's like a tuner, like a one tuner that you have to use in our house. So I've been listening to some N.FL games this season, like on the SiriusXM app.
Old school, yeah, and it is interesting listening to a game.
And we one week we streamed Kyler Murray because we had Joe Burrow and that didn't work out well, and then I think we had to start Kyler Murray in our league. And I listened to a Cardinals game the entire game. I was doing like yard work and I was really thinking to myself, I had an edible, so I was a little out of it.
But I thought to myself, Am i the only person in the world? It was like, Week 16, Am I the only person in the world listening to this Cardinals radio telecast? Yeah.
Probably.
Yeah, you might have been, but I want to go back. You're only able to watch one show on all the TVs in your house.
It's like, a for a second, there we were, we have like a DirectV thing, and it was. We were only allowed to watch on one tuner, but we fixed that since then, one of our tuners was out.
Okay.
Dave Pasch, Voice of the Cardinals. He does ESPN, too. He's really good, so you enjoyed?
Yeah, no, it was. His voice sounded great, he did a great job.
Those are the comments that you don't have to take from Jake, just so you know, we don't care about the announcer of the Cardinals radio broadcast.
You know, Dave Pasch Jake, don't ever fucking interrupt me again. there it is, don't fucking do it.
There it is. I'm actually not joking, Don't interrupt me when I'm on, like a roll when I'm on a bit like, don't interrupt me. Okay, if Hank is in the middle of his like comedy act today and he's like, knock, knock.
Knock knock, say it Jake, knock knock.
Who's there? Don't fucking interrupt me, I'm kidding, no.
Let me do a hank joke.
Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Epstein.
Epstein, Who?
I was murdered, that's a good joke.
Great joke.
I like it, Jerry.
Sorry, Jerry, sorry.
I'm kidding, Jake, we fucking love you. calm down by the way, you're making me into a mean person. I'm not a bully.
You're turning me into one.
Yeah, you did this to yourself, Jake, Yeah.
And the NFC South, absolutely no one, not one player love that. I'm not even doing it.
Strongest argument?
Guys, that's it, that's my pitch, think about it. Okay, that's all I got for you.
Yeah.
All right, strong, mea culpa, Jerry.
How are you feeling about the Super Bowl before we do? Hot seat, cool throw, are you gonna you like the Chiefs or the 49ers?
You know, I had a pretty terrible year betting on games this year, as I told you, I bet on the Bengals right before Joe Burrow's hand fell off.
And I had a future on Baltimore because I listened to this podcast and you somehow fucking got into my brain.
Yeah, that's my bad.
And I think I was really rooting against Taylor Swift. I just kept betting against Taylor Swift. I was like, you need to learn failure like very talented woman, beautiful woman, whoa.
I've met her wonderful, like a presence, like a presence, like a force.
But, like, life is just like a shit show, it's just like it's just one letdown after another. It shouldn't be that easy, life isn't this easy, it's not that it shouldn't be this easy.
It isn't this easy, it's a nightmare, life is a nightmare. And like, the most traumatic thing to happen to Taylor Swift, I guess, is Kanye taking saying, Beyonce deserved this? Like, Is that really that traumatic?
It's kind of a cool story, like, if you're like, Oh my gosh, Taylor, tell the time that ye came on stage.
I'm just in a bad mood and I'm actually. I have no idea who's going to win this game, so I'm not going to bet on it, I'm just going to watch it.
Okay, just enjoy it.
Are you allowed to watch the entire game?
I think I am, I think I am, you know, it's funny.
My wife, former supermodel. Look it up.
Yep.
Look it up, Jake.
When I look her up, though, it says that your marriage is on the rocks.
It's not true.
My wife doesn't like football, doesn't like the sound of the NFL.
Rebecca Romaine O'Connell.
Yeah, she doesn't have the O'Connell, she only took the stamos and then dropped it, and then I actually took the stamos. I'm Jerry O'Connell Stamos.
Jerry O'Stamos.
I tried to take it. Jerry O'Stamos.
I'm looking at pictures of her, Yeah, no, yeah, she's a supermodel.
But the only time.
Thanks for telling me to look her up.
The only time I've, really, I was watching, Oh man, I wish Hank was here, too bad, he's knock, knock.
Who's there?
J6ers.
J6ers, too.
We were just peaceful protesting, that's good.
That's good, yeah.
But the only game, the only Super Bowl I really watched from beginning to end with my wife, was that Patriots-Falcons game, and it was really funny. My wife wasn't watching it, my wife was shopping online, my wife wasn't watching it.
And it's so funny in the fourth quarter, I can't believe it. I was hate watching it because I wanted to see the Patriots lose, and I was. I couldn't believe what was happening. And my wife, like, looked up from, I don't know, Wayfair or whatever fucking pillow she was buying.
Another fucking pillow, Oh God, let's go to Brazil, Max, let's go.
Yes.
A boys trip?
Let's go to Brazil, Max.
Actually, that'd be a fun trip. Jerry and Max do Brazil. Yeah, it'd be a great trip. it'd be a great trip.
But my wife looked up and went, Are the Patriots going to win this game? And that was like, I was like, Are you watching this? and my wife was like, they were down 28-3. Are they going to come back and win this game? And I? That was the last sort of, like, happy moment we had with each other.
Sounds like she knows ball. Would she like to manage our fantasy team?
I would be open.
Oh God, it's so annoying. My wife is from Northern California, so like all the time now, she's like, bang, bang Niner gang.
It's so stupid, God. That's another annoying thing about Niners fans. My wife has like Niners gear and she wears it and, like, people on the street are always like, Bang, bang.
Is this why you hate the Niners? is it because it makes your wife happy?
It reminds him of his wife.
Yeah.
No, I like my significant other, I like everyone to be happy. I'm just, I don't know. This season was a letdown.
I let you down as a fantasy owner, fantasy manager. No, you're the owners, I'm the manager. Yeah, I hope you find it in your heart to, you know, Sirianni me and keep me on.
Yeah, bring in some good coordinators. How about that?
I tend to work by myself, I mean, that's who I tend to work with. And Jake, I'm sorry, I jumped on you like that.
No, I'm sorry for everything.
But just think about it, guys.
Yeah, okay.
Who's sorrier between Jerry and Jake? They're both so polite, yeah.
I mean, only one of us will lose sleep about it, so.
Yeah, before we get into hot seat, cool throne. There was a fun story that Jake sent to us a couple months ago about Jerry and an awl on this podcast. Yes, so Jerry, you found an awl's dog, you saved a dog.
Uh-uh.
I have a—man. This is going to really impress everybody here. I have five dogs.
Oh.
They're all rescues, adopt, don't shop. Hell, yes, we do not feed them regular kibble, we only feed them farmer's dog.
Farmer's dog It's so great, they come in the bags, you open them, they love it.
Yeah, they love it. Farmer's dog is just good stuff.
But I was running—my two younger ones who are kind of crazy, and I got to run them around. And there was a beautiful golden retriever sitting by themselves in the middle of the street, just sitting there in my neighborhood, no leash sitting there. And my dogs went crazy because it's like a rogue dog, and like, my dogs went over to this dog and they immediately became friendly. And it's so funny.
Dogs like to run in packs, you know, it's like being an awl. you want to get in a pack, you know, I mean, I'm running around the MGM.
Here we're all high-fiving each other, taking selfies and stuff. I had the briefcase down there, people wanted photos of me in the briefcase.
And I got the dog, and it's difficult having a dog without a leash, you know? So I was like, holding this dog. And I texted the number on the—. there was a number on there. And I texted the number. And I said, Hey, I got a beautiful golden retriever here. Is this your dog? I think I sent a photo.
And I said, My name is Jerry O'Connell, you know, I'm in the neighborhood, your dog's fine. I can hang out here for a little bit. And I immediately got a text back saying, I fucking drafted Darren Waller.
And there was very little gratitude for me standing with a dog and at first I was angry.
But again, I—they're right, I really led a lot. —A lot of people rely on me for their fantasy picks. Facts, strategies, draft strategies, and, you know again, much like I talked about earlier, money is involved typically.
And I felt bad about that. So yeah, it's just funny how my season last season as your fantasy manager is still following me. But the dog was okay and we sort of had a laugh about it.
You're a hero.
Yeah, yeah, I don't know if I'm a hero.
No, you're a hero. Thank you for your service, Jerry.
I know, come on, what am I, Billy? Come on, you're a hero, you're a hero.

You guys go first.
Okay, all right, we'll start with Jake, we'll come around Jake, your hot seat, cool throne.
My hot seat is Metlife Stadium.
Yeah.
It was recently announced that the very cursed stadium in the NFL world will be hosting the 2026 World Cup final.
Yes.
However, I believe they're switching it to grass. Correct they are, but it's still cursed, yes.
FIFA is making them switch to grass. FIFA is also not calling them by the name Metlife Stadium. It's just New York, New Jersey. Which made me realize we don't ever have to call these stadiums by their corporate names, if we want to.
No, it could just be giant Stadium.
And it's always Heinz Field to me. Yeah, it's not Akersher, but yeah.
Staples center Yeah.
Crypto.
What is that even? Is crypto even a thing?
Yeah, yeah, not anymore, yeah.
I'm surprised. Were you upset that you didn't get involved in the FTX? Is that kind of just a level of your celebrity? You weren't there yet?
You know, it's funny, just getting back to the whole waking up with fear, angry at the world thing. I remember when it was all happening, I was like, man, why am I not on this level? Yeah, how do I like? By the way? They were like getting paid, and like owners, they were getting paid not only in like currency in a currency, they were getting paid in, like it would be like getting paid in a banking system. Yeah.
Like, and I remember feeling, um, what's the word jealousy, envy, anger? And um man, I was so happy when they all got sued, it was so exciting. Like, yeah.
Pay up. Brady Yeah, Matt Damon, Matt Damon, you duped us all, you know. It would be like telling people to drive like Darren Waller in the Fourth thing and people believing you.
Yeah.
All right.
Your cool Throne.
My cool throne is Lions general manager Brad Holmes. So he had his, uh, I think it was his end of year press conference, and he just roasted the media about their old takes exposed. I don't know if you guys saw any of these quotes.
No.
But, uh, he told someone, you wanted us to pick a quarterback, you didn't want us to pick. Penny Sewell. I know you said that was a miss. I get probably two people in this room credit for admitting they were wrong, so he just lashed out.
I like that the media should be held accountable. When we're wrong, you tell us we're wrong enemy of the people, because we're not scared to tell you that you suck.
So you should tell us when we're wrong.
Tell the media when they suck, yeah.
If we're wrong, tweet at us.
We're wrong, go after us.
I don't, I don't think you should do that. I don't think you should do that. I just think you have to like, act above, I think you have to sort of like.
No, I disagree.
We're also very petty, so there's a reason why we're not genius.
But honestly, like one could say that. The Eagles downfall began when someone pretty high up in their coaching organization were yelling at fans in Arrowhead Stadium. Which is like, It's petty, you know?
Yeah, I see what you're saying, but he's probably holding that in in the heat of the moment.
That would be a great speech to give if they won the Super Bowl.
Yeah.
But they lost, so like, Yeah, you got to wait, you got to hold that one, all right.
PFT your hot seat cool Throne.
My hot seat is Drake. Yes, Drake's on the hot seat. Jerry, have you seen the internet today?
I have not no.
All right, so Drake international superstar, top of his game. Sure, I think most number one singles of all time.
He was jacking off and a video came out. I'll put it this way, his penis won't be getting any N.FL head coaching opportunities because it's too large and intimidating.
Oh, it's too large.
He's got a big dick, yeah.
Huge dick, God, what a bummer. It's so much better to hear. Like, you guys were like filming a commercial and you stole glances at each other's dicks, and they weren't big.
Like, that's what you want to hear. We're not built like Drake, unfortunately, Drake. I actually think my conspiracy theory brain tells me that Drake leaked this himself. Because it's a good angle. It's like, you know?
And he's got a big dick.
And he's got a big dick, yeah. So, if anything like, my respect for Drake increased to that.
It's really big.
What a bummer.
Yeah, it's really big, big bummer. Yeah, they don't make butts big enough in Brazil for his dick.
Yeah, yeah, no insertion, though.
Yeah, he was just cranking it. yeah, hot dog in the bun, just cranking it.
My cool throne is Chinese spy pigeons. Chinese spy pigeons are on the cool throne. There was a pigeon that got. It was imprisoned, it got arrested in India and it was held in jail for eight months.
Yeah, because they thought it was a Chinese spy pigeon. They saw that it had like these two metal rings on its leg, and the metal rings had Chinese writing on it. And I guess the Chinese have used spy pigeons before.
So they imprisoned, much like Brittany Griner, they imprisoned this pigeon in India for a long time. They conducted a thorough review of the situation. They found out it was a Taiwanese racing pigeon, which apparently is a thing that you can bet on, which sounds awesome. And these pigeons can make like professional athlete salaries, like these pigeons are some of the richest athletes in the world.
And so they determined it was a racing pigeon. They released it. Now it's in a hospital, recuperating from its stay in Indian prison. But it's a good story. I don't know the name.
I want to find out what the name of this pigeon is. But yeah, they did a deep and proper inquiry and investigation, they did not find any fact associated with spying and the pigeon. It was released last week and it is in fine health, according to the hospital. So a good story with a good iniquity.
They should have had like a pigeon exchange with like a war crimes pigeon.
A Chinese warlord gets returned from India.
For the other pigeon. And then they pass each other on the tarmac.
Like, Bridge of Spies, Yeah, that would rock.
All right, I got two hot seats, one is, I guess cable, no cable might be on the cool throne. ESPN, Fox and Warner Brothers are all combining.
So we just have cable again.
Yeah, so into another, like, it's for sports, right, yeah.
So I guess maybe the hot seat is just us forever believing that we were going to not end up back in cable.
Yeah.
So let me just ask this so Fox Sports and ESPN are, because I know they are the same company.
It's Fox, Warner Brothers and ESPN.
And so is there going to be? Like? Because I know there's a Fox Sports and an ESPN, but I know they're both owned by Disney. Are they going to be one channel?
I don't think the companies are merging, I think they're teaming up for like an app.
For a streaming service? Yeah, yeah.
All right.
