We have Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn in person from the combine. We had a great time with Coach Quinn. I feel optimistic for you. PFT.
I'm excited, he said a couple things, actually. The first thing that he said before we went on the air was, What words am I allowed to say on this show? Yeah, we're like, Yeah, say, fuck Dan.
Say, fuck, he did and he did, but yeah, he's a football guy through and through, and you guys made some ground too. I have finally had my first good night of sleep in nine years, ten years almost, because Dan Quinn and I finally made peace. So we got a great interview with him.
We're going to talk a little basketball over the weekend. We have Who's Back of the Week, we have Hank's number one Patriot and I also have caught up on the documentary.
And I have some thoughts. Yeah, yeah, the Aaron Hernandez episode was something, a lot of football.
It's a football documentary, we're going to break down some of that documentary and then we have a Monday reading for the people on a Monday.

Okay, let's go.
And then we'll take it higher, oh, we're gonna run down to the Electric Avenue.
It's part of my take, even about martial sports.
Welcome to part of my take presented by DraftKings Sportsbook. Today is Monday, March 4th and LeBron James has hit 40,000 points. Oh wow, I'm very excited about that. Guess how many he has?
In college, it's zero because Caitlyn Clark set the real record today. Yeah, she did, she had a.
Hell of a record. She also set it in a very Caitlyn Clark way with a flop and a technical foul. Yep.
Two free throws, yes, at the end of the first half. If you happen to bet Caitlyn Clark to break the record in the third quarter. Like I believe most of America did, that's unfortunate, yeah, but.
Still, an incredible performance by Caitlyn Clark. Going to the WNBA still has some college basketball left. The Big Ten tournament for the women's college basketball is going to be better than the Big Ten men's tournament. I'll just say that right now, it might be.
Because the Big ten men's bad basketball, my own team included. But LeBron 40,000 points. You want to hear a whoa? Yep, okay, this is from Ben Goliver.
Lakers LeBron James the first N.B.A. player to score 40,000 points. James scored his first 10,000 points in the exact same number of games as it took him to go from 30,000 to 40,000. Whoa, So, the first 10k was in 368 games, 10k to 20k was 358 games.
20k to 30k was 381, slowed down a little 30k to 40k 368 games. That's pretty impressive. That's insane, that's a weird, that's a weird quirk, but insane.
His longevity is unmatched.
Um, he's, I mean, what else can you say? I think the best take on this comes from, I think, who we all expected to have the best take on this, uh, Antonio Brown.
Oh, I was going to say, LeBron James, too. Okay, all right, go with Antonio Brown.
Antonio Brown's take was he put up a picture of LeBron James holding 40,000 on a piece of paper. And then he just said, How many crackers work at Barstool Sports? Oh, nice hashtag, yes.
Hashtag CTESPN Yes, yes, that is the best take. LeBron also had a take.
He said Uh, to be quite honest with you, everybody wanted to see me fail when I got to the league, everybody was just like. It's no way he's going to be able to exceed the expectations that put upon him. Is that true? I don't think so. I don't think everyone wanted him to fail.
I don't know that anybody wanted, like the media, wanted him to succeed. Correct? That's a good job by us by saying LeBron James will be the best player ever, yeah.
Hank, did you want him to fail? Not right away, not right away, definitely not right away.
When did you start wanting LeBron to fail when he became an enemy? Yeah, uh, probably 2011..
Yeah, so you had a long time not rooting for him to fail, and you're like his biggest hater. I'm trying to think when they beat, I think it was the first year of the Super team. They rigged it game six against the Celtics in the playoffs.
Oh, they did, and then ever since then, they rigged it, rigged it. Raison Rondo got smoked in the head on a layup underneath the basket, didn't call foul, rigged it, rigged it, lost a series that was truly I remember waiting.
The game ended. I was like, I can't wait to hear Steven, I can't wait to hear them like, they're going to go on about this. This is going to be the biggest controversy in sports history.
Nobody said anything, nobody said anything. Rigged. The craziest thing about LeBron?
40,000 points is I don't. I don't think anyone's going to hit it, like, I don't, even though the scoring is crazy in the NBA right now. I was looking at it and Luca has 10,000 points in six years. But to say Luca can play to be 40 years old with his body, no offense to his body, uh, would be a jump. I was going to say, I don't know what his, uh.
His maintenance technique is, but I don't think he keeps his body in as good shape.
Yeah, Kevin Durant's going to hit 30,000 points within the next year or so, but he's in his mid thirties, has some injuries. Steph is, I think like around 30,000 points. But again, also old. I mean, Wimby, but he's I don't know how a seven footer is going to play to be 40..
Well, I was watching Wimby play today and if he can hit step back threes, then maybe he could do it, cause like he's on pace one year.
Wimby is a he's a freaking freak. Yeah, but it really goes to Jason Tatum, Jason Tatum. How many points?
Jason Tatum 11,000 He has 11,000, and how many seasons? He's 26..
Okay, uh, yeah, okay, there we go, we'll throw Jason Tatum in there.
Happy Hank Yeah, yeah.
Um, he could, he could play for awhile. Either way, this is about LeBron.
It's insane what he's been able to do for as long as he's been able to do it. And he is like, for. I'm not a big, huge LeBron fan, everyone knows that, uh, I don't think anyone on this podcast is a huge LeBron fan. But I also feel like we've done at least an okay job. Respecting the fact that he is an insane, insane basketball talent who is, you know, people will say he's the best of all time. I have him too, which is, and I think the gap between two and three is huge.
It's crazy that he's been doing it for this long and I don't think we'll see anyone like 40,000 points, even though when I first saw it, this is how stupid my brain is. I was like 40,000 points. Doesn't seem like a lot of points, cause he's been playing for so long, it's so many.
Goddamn points. It just gets to the point where if you see a number like 40,000, all these numbers are so big that you lose track of just how much it is. Right. Like, 40,000 is an astronomical number. But I had no idea like where he was until he set this milestone. Like, I just assumed he scored a shitload of points. James Score of a shitload of points was my metric that I had.
And I don't. I'm not a huge LeBron James fan, but what I love about LeBron is how crazy he makes people and how much he contributes to the sports media. Like just screaming at each other culture, and a lot of people say, like, Oh, I don't like that. About sports TV, yeah, but you watch, that's the thing, and it's entertainment.
Like, I love that's one of my favorite things about sports TV is you just get grown men on stage that get ready. How many people, how many people do you think have been, uh, I'll say, killed? In a debate that started about LeBron James, I would say probably four or five people have died over an argument about whether or not he's good at basketball. That's what I love about.
LeBron James He's it's, it's insane. And he is, like, in the history of the NBA as well, when you think about it, like the the. The growth of the N.BA. Obviously, Bird and Magic in the Eighties took the N.B.A. to a point where it used to be. The finals was was taped, delayed in some parts of the country. M.J. Uh, put the N.B.A. on a completely different level, a global level.
You, you know, became an icon around the world. And then after, MJ is like, Well, where do we go now? And yeah, Kobe was there, but Kobe was also. I think when LeBron was a rookie, I think that was right around Kobe's trial, so LeBron stepped in. And has basically carried the N.B.A. for the last 20 years. It's crazy.
Like he is. I know that there's been a lot of other superstars, but it's LeBron. James has been the focal point of every, basically every NBA season for 20 years. And it's insane what he's done and he's. It's not like he's doing it right now, at 39. As like an old LeBron, like he's not young, he's not the same LeBron at the height of his powers. But that game he had the other night when they came back against the Clippers.
And he's like, I'm just going to, I'm going to guard Kawhi and I'm going to hit a bunch of threes like, he's not. He's still very, very, very good. It's not one of those records where he's 39 years old, he sucks.
He's on a bad team and he's just putting up empty stats. He's still one of the best players in the N.B.A. right now. And it's crazy. It's just nuts to watch it, night in and night out.
And I know this is all painful for Hank to hear. He gave me a little look like, dude, stop talking about him. Oh, they're probably not going to make.
The playoffs, or they'll sneak in, they'll rig it so he gets to play in the playing game. Well, here's what's great about LeBron James. If you don't like LeBron James when he loses in the playoffs, you're going to miss that when he's gone, when he retires, you're going to, like, you might not miss LeBron James in the N.B.A. hank, but you will very dearly miss. Like if they get swept in the playoffs this year. The joy that will just course through your body as you get to talk about how funny it is to watch him not win a playoff series.
That that will be something that you will look back on and be like, fuck it. There was really some good times that I had when he.
Stunk also, he will definitely make the play in and could very well likely make the playoffs. The The West is like, very compact they're. They're six games ahead of the Jazz for the, you know, the 10th spot, and they're only three games away from The Sun at the sixth spot.
So he's going to be in at least a play in game. Yeah, he will. Yeah. Also, you don't need to worry about LeBron.
This? But the Celtics are basically already in there. I would love to play. Laker, hey.
Can I give you something that you could say that? I didn't say because I was trying to be nice and not do a LeBron hate thing. Because 40,000 points is insanely impressive, and I am actually, like, as a sports fan, in awe of what LeBron has accomplished. He's actively trying to get his coach fired. Well, no, I was going to give you a little stat that you can just throw around that. I didn't say I want credit for not saying it.
Not you. LeBron James has 40,000 points. He's led the league in scoring once. Michael Jordan led the league in scoring 10 times. Interesting.
I didn't say it, though I did not say that stat, so credit to me for not saying it, but you can tell that to anyone else. Also, just a little stat out there for everyone. If DeMar DeRozan scores 16,998 points next game, he'll have as many as LeBron.
That's pretty good.
So striking distance, it could be a possibility. He's right there. Uh, did you do you see what his son Bronny is saying about his NBA prospects? He's going to wait and see, right?
Well, he's not. He's not basing whether or not he wants to come out of college on his projected draft stock, he's based, he's basing it on what teams are interested in. So that's interesting. So I'm guessing that just means where his dad is going to end up.
Yes, that would make sense. I mean, he is, um, on a USC team that has been bad this year. Although I might put a future on them to win the Pac 12, they're playing good ball right now. I watched the majority of the game on a Saturday against Washington and that that Isaiah Collier is awesome.
Took over that game, not Bronny. If Bronny Jr. had done what Isaiah Collier had done, it would have actually, like, taken away. The limelight of LeBron James is 40,000, yeah.
Cause he was that good. But yeah, we'll see. I mean, I call me a sucker, call me maybe soft, because I'm a father of three. But I kind of want to see Bronny be on LeBron's team, cause it would just be cool. Like I saw an old clip the other day retweeted on my timeline of Ken Griffey Jr. hitting a home run and Ken Griffey senior hitting a home run right after him.
I was like.
That's fucking awesome, yeah. So they went back to back. I still remember where I was when when I saw that news like, it's. It would be incredible to see LeBron yelling at his son.
On the same team, it also would kind of suck to be Bronny on a team with LeBron. Because everyone would look at you being like, Well, you're only here because your dad, your dad's the coach. Yeah, it would, it, would he actually, Bronny would finally realize. Like, what it's like for every nepotism guy out there working at a corporate job, being like, I'm here because.
My dad gave me what's one of the best parts about getting to the NBA. I would imagine you're 19, 20, 21 years old, you have millions of dollars of cash, you want to go out and party a.
Little bit, Yeah, you don't want one around. He won't have millions of dollars. Well, he will.
Because he's LeBron, you don't, you don't want your dad being around in a circumstance like that.
Should I? should I? I would like to. I'd like to podcast long enough to podcast my son. There you go, I'll just have mom when he's like, seven. But yeah, it's an incredible performance, I mean, incredible career, incredible moment. 40,000 points.
Uh, and you're right, pft. What he is for the for the sports ecosystem is incredible. Because even this like 10 minute segment of sucking LeBron off, there's going to be some awls are like, what the fuck? I thought this was a safe space. Why are you guys doing this? why are you betraying right now?
And then the other ones are like, you didn't say it enough. It will off people no matter what, and that's what LeBron James does for us, for everybody out there.
That's sick of us. Glazing LeBron, Here's I have one stat, Lebron for you guys, Lebron. James is the first player in NBA history to score 40,000 points, who also sucks. So there you go.
Okay.
Boom, have that. He stinks, Uh, yeah, but he's great. And then Caitlin Clark.
Yeah, did it to Pete Maravich, who? Pete Maravich, that was? That was actually one of those moments where it was incredible for Caitlin Clark, but you know, Caitlin Clark has done so much for the women's college basketball game. It was nice to see Pete Maravich get some flowers, where everyone went and looked up Pete Maravich stats. And they're like, this dude had this many points in three years.
And no. Three point line, three point line. The dude was a chucker, he shot, he shot the ball and he was a great pastor, too. But he took a lot of five assists a game he took, he took a lot of shots and he's got some great highlights too.
If you want to go back, like every time, people are like, Oh, if Kyrie Irving got in the same gym as Bob Cousy, Cousy would just spontaneously combust into flames. Maravich, Maravich could play a little bit, Maravich could, like, give some of.
These guys run for their money. I do think that Victor Wembenyama like, if it would be funny to have, uh, James Naismith, like, watch a video of him, yeah, well, if he did, he'd be like.
The rim needs to be 15 feet tall. Yeah, and also he's not, he only would have been able to watch.
Half a season. Cause if James Naismith was still alive, he would have died when he watched the All-star game. Yeah, like, there's an abomination.
Uh, okay, what else do we got in the sports world?
I have some combine notes. I just wanted to congratulate Hank, honestly, about winning the N.B.A. finals this year. Celtics win by 52. The game was over in the first quarter. At the end of the first, it was done.
They didn't want to guard you, they were just dominant, it was crazy that.
I think it was 2221 at one point and then I looked back at the score and I was like, wait.
The cells are up by 30.
Yeah, how did this happen? And this is their third win this season of 50 or more points. No team has ever done that in the history of the NBA.
11 in a row is this, is this.
Championship or bus this year? Oh yeah, it's been building to this.
Ben Championship or boss? But it really is this year it, it has been championship robust since.
The season started. I've said, oh, no, no, but I'm saying, like the past few seasons, it's it's not been championship or bus. This is the first year. It feels like, okay, the Celtics have been, they've been to a final, they've been to some conference finals.
You have to win it all this year, if you don't, it's a failure. It's a bus.
If there are no injuries and we don't win the championship, yeah, and you have to get a soul patch, right? Yeah, nope.
Yeah, what about a cat named Soul Patch?
Nope, also, when they win, I will shave my head. Okay, that's fair. Jalen Brunson, I think avoided catastrophic injury.
Yeah, so I was talking to memes. Why are you so upset?
About it, Big cat. I like watching Jalen Brunson play basketball memes, was despondent over this.
Uh, you were upset? I was. I just said, Fuck, that sucks, like, I listen, the bulls suck. I don't want them to even be in the plan I I get. I love watching basketball.
I start thinking about the N.B.A. truly right after March madness. Jalen Brunson is one of those guys that I love watching. Play basketball the way he commands a game, the way he, like, can control a game from the point guard position, he's a throwback. So I was legitimately bummed when I saw that he was hurt. And potentially out for the rest of the year. I want to watch him play playoff basketball.
The way that the play looked. Sorry for. Sorry for liking Jalen Brunson. I'm just asking, I just know V's up.
V's up, right, Max, V's up. Everybody was saying like it looked like it was a non-contact injury, and it looked like it was something real bad, yeah.
Real bad, because it almost looked like he heard it when he was taking off, like he grabbed, like his leg did a weird movement in midair. He's like, Oh fuck, I'm hurt, then he like, falls down twice, gets carried off the court.
Everybody was like, Oh shit, this is an Achilles, this is maybe, I don't know, ACL, or some sort of fracture. And then they say, Oh, he's got a he has a knee contusion. Yeah, so I told memes, I was like, That's good news, memes.
It's good news that Jalen Brunson appears to have avoided catastrophic injury. But also kind of a bitch. ooh, kind of a bitch, because it's a fall down guy, he's a tough guy. I've had some catastrophic foot injuries and I haven't missed a podcast.
He's.
A dog memes Are you okay now? Do you think it's going to be okay? It would have been another fleming curse.
Yeah, uh, we're all the way back now. Okay, we're all the way back, so he's fine.
He's fine, I do. I did type in, Uh, Achilles right away, cause it reminded me of Aaron Rodgers. He, I think he bumped knees on the screen. And, uh, you know. I just love whenever the doctors come out of the woodwork and be like, Oh, he just hit this nerve. That makes your knee like, feel like it's dead for a minute.
It's a nerve, yeah, peroneal or something, according to me.
He just hit this nerve that I looked up 10 seconds ago and I'm now an expert. Is it a peroneal I?
Don't know, a parochial nerve, someone said, peroneal nerve. I've learned all my science from injuries and then finding out, googling the person's name instantly, yeah.
That's, that's how I know about the human anatomy. Yeah, so I guess he, I guess he's okay, he's probably.
Not going to miss much, much time, but at the moment, Knicks fans were like, Well, there it goes. Yeah, we're so happy, so excited.
I mean, the Knicks aren't going to win, they're.
Not going to go to the final or anything because I just don't think they will. But I want to see Jalen Brunson play playoff basketball, yeah, cause he is one of those dogs. I want to see the garden play playoff basketball.
Yeah, it was, I went to a game last year, it was electric. The Mecca, Um, okay.
Other things in, Well, I, I've, uh. I don't think I can make a future bet on this because the price isn't great. But I just think the knucks are going to win again.
Yeah, it feels like, it feels like it feels like they're just, I think it's back to back. There's a lot of fun stuff going on in the league right now, a lot of a lot of teams that you want to say can win the Clippers.
The Clippers actually might be able to win. I'll tell you why. Here's why the Clippers might be able to beat the Nuggets. Because tonight, James Harden, I think he had four points, yeah, when, oh, for 10 shooting vintage James Harden in the playoffs mode.
Yeah, and they okay, so maybe they're they're learning how to win with playoff James in the regular season.
The extent of the Clippers discussion. To just be like, they got to stay healthy, cause they have all the they have all the health guys, like their healthiest guy. Russell Westbrook broke his hand and they've got that's the one guy you could, could, you know, say he's not going to get hurt.
They've got weird health guys, too. Yeah, why with mystery injuries?
Quiet, just saying, quiet, just sitting on the bench, and they're like, Yeah, he's, uh, out for.
The next three years, we don't know why. Yeah, he's unplugged right now, so he doesn't have battery.
So he can't be in, uh, so yeah, kawai. Weird injury guy. Paul George. I guess he says him weird. yeah, so he said, weird injuries.
He's pretty healthy, though I count him when he is injured, it's usually in a weird way, yeah.
And then James Harden, who's sometimes just too fat.
To play, it's it's injury, laziness, injury laziness. Strip club. Yeah, no dog, no dog.
But if they can win, with James Harden scoring four points. And I think their bench was the the part of the team that carried them tonight. I was looking at the box score. I think that every starter had negative and plus minus, and four out of the five guys were double digits in in minus, and so their bench came on. So maybe maybe the Clippers, maybe it's the Clippers here.
Okay, now, Nuggets Hank, since we're doing NBA talk, who scares you the most in the East Bucks? PEPEV Yeah, not the heat.
No, never what. I mean, what happened last year? Different team, okay?
Never is a crazy thing to say about the heat. And they're not. They're doing the same thing they do every year, where they have not been good and now they're starting to play well. And it was like, Oh, here they come.
I'm not worried about the.
Heat I am worried about the bucks. Okay, yeah, just cause Giannis at any point could physically.
Decide Hey, I'm bigger and stronger. I feel like we've just been robbed too of of getting to laugh at and be running out of gas in the playoffs again. No, he's going to be back, though.
Is he? Yeah, I think so. Max was excited about that. I I think he's going to be back, but I.
Feel like we've been robbed, it sucks. Yeah, it kind of feels well. Once he realized he wasn't going to get MVP, he just kind of quit, I mean, he got hurt.
That's true, the game that he got hurt in, there was never been a guy who was more hurt playing that game, that's true. I saw Kirk Coles one of the last two games, two big, two big wins. Tyrus Max, He's a beast.
I saw Kirk Coles, where a good friend had a graphic. We have a we have a MVP problem with Americans, we don't win them MVPs anymore. Is that true? We have not won an MVP this this decade.
Since 29, 2018, we haven't won an MVP and I don't know where our next MVP is coming from. Jason Tatum Jason.
Tatum's got to step up well, he's playing, he's playing team basketball, he's not doing the.
You know, but if, who would you? Yeah, who would you expect to win? The next MVP? Cooper Flag or Tatum? Tatum should win, but Luca probably will, because Luca has the staff and the European bias, right?
That's what I'm saying, the European bias in B. It's in bead, it's Yoka twice and Giannis Giannis twice. So yeah, we need to, we need to take back the MVP.
How are we going to do this? Boys? Cooper flag, it's Cooper Flag, the answer to every basketball.
Problem is Cooper Flag. It doesn't help that that the Euros got an alien that's playing.
Basketball in San Antonio. I know I would love to just somehow wipe the next two years of a Cooper playing at Duke out of my memory. Yeah, right now, I love Cooper, yeah.
I love Cooper Flag, but he will get, he'll get a weird haircut when he goes there and you're going to hate his face. And he's going to be on TV all the time and then he's going to do something very Duke-like. While he's there, then the brotherhood is going to step in and defend him. Yeah, and he's going to get that state.
Jay Billis is going to stand on the table for him. I wanted, oh man, I wanted.
So bad last night for even though I don't like Alabama basketball. Uh, I wanted them to win and rush the court because Jay was calling that game. Uh, by the way, Hank, congrats to Kyle Filipowski. I actually think we should take away Joe Flacco's comeback player of the year and give it to Kyle Filipowski retroactively. To go from a catastrophic ankle knee soreness injury just seven days ago. And then do windmill dunks like, Forget tomorrow, Hamlin, Kyle Filipowski is the real, the real story here.
I mean, he that was insane, dude. He's a hero, he's a hero. Also, Sunday Motivation, I posted. It's like, the it's, it's, it's one thing to to have something like that happen, where it's like, I think the doctor said he Kyle Filipowski may never walk again.
And then, just seven days later, he's windmill dunking. It's just, I don't know, I honestly think.
That that gives some hope to Hank for being able to dunk if Kyle Filipowski can battle back from that injury, hank. You're basically fully healthy right now, imagine what you can do on this body.
That's true. Maybe we should, uh, storm the court on hank.
Oh, um, nobody out there google what happened after the Clemson Duke football game when Duke beat them? Oh, nobody googled that. And see what the fans did to the field. I don't want people to look that up because it could. It could have devastating consequences. Oh, no.
To Jay Billis.
Oh, no, that'd be bad, by the way, in college basketball, I told Max before this, but I've done it again. I bet on Villanova 150 to one. I looked at the prices. What's a what's a way? I could win half a million dollars?
Oh, Villanova, they probably won't even make the tournament. Yeah, that's not true. they're minus 240 to make the tournament.
Oh, let's go make the tournament.
Or the first four. What happens if they play Wisconsin? Wisconsin's bad, they, they sink, it's.
It's over. I'm not even they've. They've actually done me a favor of just getting it to such a bad level where I'm. Are they going to make the tournament? Yeah, they still will.
They're actually, I think, one of eight teams, uh, in the country to not. Well, they probably don't have a winning record anymore in quad one, two, but they don't have any quad three or four losses. So not too shabby. I am now. quad three, four losses, baby. I love the quad system when it works in your favor because it's basically. I was like, how is Michigan? Not a quad three or four loss if it's a way? The team, if you play away, the team has to be ranked like outside of like 250 net ranking, which is hard to do.
That's very hard, so so I'm just going to be, I'm going to.
Just fucking banging the table for the quads. I'm all on board with the Tennessee volunteers, I'm officially all in. Impressive win by them and it was two impressive wins back to back.
Auburn and Alabama Yeah, Auburn's not, I don't, but they still got as much of a Alabama at home.
Is a fucking beats. They still came from behind against Auburn and then they came from behind against Alabama. Then they have South Carolina, which is going to be tough, and then Kentucky, which is going to be. They're ending the SEC schedule like the hardest that you can do.
Oh, it's going to be awesome and I'm going to bet the over and it's going to be great. And I think, I think Rick Barnes, I think this is the year for Rick Barnes, the year Ricky B. Yeah, we're.
Getting ready for March? It feels good, it feels real good. Um, okay, anything else in basketball?
I had a couple of combine notes, uh, that I wanted to share with you guys before we do that.
Hey sports fans looking for a new show to binge? check out Mr. Throwback on Peacock. Follow Danny, A. down on his luck memorabilia dealer looking for redemption by reuniting with his middle school teammate, NBA legend Steph Curry. That's right NBA rate.

Ball don't lie, but sometimes people do. Don't miss Steph Curry in his first scripted TV role, Mr. Throwback.
Streaming now only on Peacock. Okay, combine notes. Here's what I have for you.
J.J. McCarthy.
Missed a lot of throws. Yeah, J.J. McCarthy is that one guy. There's always one dude every single year that the further away they get from playing football, the better of a football player they become. J.J. McCarthy isn't now being talked about going into top five, top six, even though he then went and missed a lot of throws, even though it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter because the tape, you can throw the tape out. Forget the system, he played in college, what you saw at the combine, throw that out. Uh, they just think that he's got the skillset. It's, it's, it's.
Work to his advantage. Uh, that he wasn't asked to do a ton at Michigan because what he was asked to do. He did very, very well. And they won a lot of games in a national title.
Speaker 3. When I'm putting a lot of stock in this year is the footage that's coming out of the players practicing, warming up in the hallways. Yeah, Michael Penix, Michael Penix was throwing dimes, J.J. McCarthy was thrown to Blake coram and thrown absolute seeds to him.
So I feel like that is the new like the scouts are behind the scenes, watching them warm up in the hotel lobbies. Yes, like this.
Guy's got all the tools, okay, so that, yeah, I agree with you that there, although the couple throws I saw were there was two throws that he was. He was just like, airmailed it and just missed a guy on a easy 15 yard out. Uh, the next note I had. This is a really dumb thought because we watch college football all year.
We know these guys, then they come out and they do the combine and we have to remember. I think Pete Prisco put it perfectly. The tape, the tape, the tape, you got to watch the tape.
Joe Milton's a franchise quarterback. Cause that fucking.
Throw was so awesome. I said, if I'm a GM, I'm drafting this guy one one overall. And that's the thing with Joe Milton is like, you will fall. All you need to know about Joe Milton. And the most impressive tape out there. Besides this one pass that he had today, which was like 75 yards, half a step into it, and he said, like, he was like, bang.
Yeah, there. Go back and watch Joe Milton before the Orange Bowl, before last season's Orange Bowl, it's Tennessee against Clemson.
It's the orangest orange bowl ever. They asked Joe to throw an orange as far as he could. He threw an orange 106 yards. Yeah, that's the only stat that I need.
This man can throw fruit farther than anybody else that's ever lived.
Give me that guy he can't throw for fucking the. You've got no chance to complete a pass 20 yards and in, but holy shit, if he's got to throw it 70 yards, he's your guy. Why wouldn't a team cause?
Now don't we have the expanded rosters with the quarterbacks? Why wouldn't you take Joe Milton and be like, he's just our designated hail Mary guy, he's our third down?
Quarterback Yeah, like, air it out. Worst case scenario, you just punted the ball 77 yards.
I want him to be good so bad. But I've watched so much Joe Milton, both at Michigan and Tennessee, to know that that's not the case. But still, when he throws that ball like he did at the combine.
I'm like, this fucking guy rocks and he has it. If if football was played with an orange, Joe Milton would be the best person to ever step on if no one would see it coming.
If you took Joe Bears, I don't want you to do this, but no one would see it coming.
Just take the whole league if we took Joe Milton and his name's Bazooka, Joe. Yeah, Joe Milton rocks. I want to see him in the league, I want to see him.
Fuck it, just like, have it. If your team's not going to be very good, just have him tank for you, but at least he's going to throw some bombs, yeah.
It'd be fun.
Um, Xavier Worthy broke the record for four to one 40.
That was pretty cool.
It was very cool, very fast. Um, John Brown was the guy that had the record beforehand, I believe. Was it right? I think it was John Brown from the Giants, and he John Ross, John Ross.
John Ross John Ross from from University of Washington. That's right, was. That's another one where I'm like, how can you not draft that guy? yeah?
John Brown Run Everyone did the Harper's.
Ferry raid, very close guys. Uh, so I again I see that guy run and I think to myself, Well, there's two teams that are going to get them, one very easy, the Raiders.
Yep, it's going to be the, uh, the Ouija board that they keep in the war room. They're going to ask Al Davis who to draft, and it's going to say, Xavier, Um, the second team, the Chiefs, you know, the chiefs, are going to get get a guy like that.
And we're going to be like, how did we let that?
Guy, go to the Chiefs, yeah. And and for Xavier Worthy, it's. It's the difference between being out of the league in three years or winning four Super Bowls and everyone's saying, you're one of.
The best receivers ever. Yeah, that's all that that is like, get it, no pressure, Xavier Worthy. Get a chief's tattoo right now.
Tattooed on your forehead so the Raiders don't take you get.
Have have, uh, Arch or, uh, Archie Manning, legally adopt you and then have him hold the league, you know, hostage and be like, we're only going to the chief, we're going to the chiefs.
There's a couple other big things that happened at the combine this weekend. Uh, the first was Tyler Owens from Texas Tech, Uh, so he said that he doesn't believe in space. I don't believe in space, I'm real religious.
So I think we're alone right now, I don't think.
There's other planets and other stuff like that. I don't believe in Tyler Owens because I watched this clip and he had a smirk on his face. He knew what he was doing, it felt like he was knew what he was doing. Because now we're talking about Tyler Owens. And he was being talked about when he said, I'm onto you, Tyler Owens, I don't believe in you.
So the fact that he motherfuckers not real, so he.
Goes on to explain I used to believe in the heliocentric thing, like we used to revolve around the sun and stuff. So the fact that he said, the fact that he knew the word heliocentric and used it correctly, tells me he actually knows what space is, and he believes in it. That's NBA.
Though he might be an NBA fan, what do you mean? That's a lot? A lot of NBA broadcasters talk about heliocentric basketball, like Luca is a heliocentric basketball player. Where it all.
Revolves around him, but he defined it, he said. Like we used to revolve around the sun and stuff. And then the rest of the quote. And Luca. And then I started seeing flat earth stuff and I was like, that's kind of interesting. And they started bringing up some valid points, yeah.
So I don't know, um, I actually think it. It's not a bad thing to say that you don't believe in space, you don't believe in, uh, in the round Earth theory. If you want to get a free ride on a. Because there's always one guy where NASA is like, Yeah, fuck you. We'll show you, we'll take you up to space and you can get a look at it.
Like, Yeah, you know what, I? I also believe that space is fake. NASA prove Help help me prove myself wrong.
But, like you and Xavier were the the. Usually. The guys who say they don't believe in space, are scared of heights and don't want to go there. That's not true, it's a completely.
Different scenario. Not afraid of flying, not afraid of being inside of a tall building. I just don't like being out in the open out, and you don't think you'd get a little fucked up looking out at space. No, I don't think the difference in, like, between being five, 10 which I am, and being like, six feet tall is big enough to, like, have an impact of me being 70,000.
Feet above. I don't know, man, I saw you on the Empire State building, I know it's and every.
Time I think about it, I start to sweat. So I got, I went out and, uh, I got the Apple Vision Pro, which I might return because there's really no real reason to use it. Yeah, um, it can I just.
Say this, and I know this isn't like this isn't why you bought it. But I think that anyone who buys the Apple Vision Pro who's not a nerd, is a porn guy. You can't watch porn on it, that's the thing, though, allegedly.
Nice that you're smart, smart to say it that way. Look it up, look it up.
It was like all anybody wrote about before the Apple Vision Pro came out, and you haven't found a way through it. You can't watch porn, I've, I've put it on three times, uh, one time I watched non porn.
I've, I've watched the Patriots documentary on it and I sat in the middle Joshua Tree, and it was an outstanding immersive experience. Uh, and the other, the second one that I did. They have like an immersive highline walking video. That you can be in where you're, like, above the fjords in Norway, and you look down into the sides. And shit, fuck you up, that fucked me up.
And I was like, I'm taking this back, yeah, bring it in, I want to see it. I don't have flight simulators on there.
Not yet. No, that's what I asked. I bought it and then after the person handed it to me, I was like, these things got flight Sims on there yet? And he was like, No. But there's a lot of exciting new apps that will be coming out soon.
Can you bring it in?
So I can test it out, see if you can watch porn on it. Yeah, I'm going to. I'll find a way to watch, okay?
Absolutely go back door on it. Yeah, no, I got, listen, we got ways to watch porn on this, that that all, all technology advances are led by porn. That's a fact it is.
A fact so, or like, or the N.B.A. that tries to bring back 3D basketball games every single year. Everyone's like, this sucks. The problem with a with a Vision Pro is anytime you wear it, you just you're an absolute nerd. It's it's the most anti-social thing that you can ever do. Because you just put it on. And then you sit down. And I'm like, making pinching motions and dragging stuff around, and Blake's sitting next to me on the couch.
Like, what the fuck are you doing? It looks like you're just is there something flying around the room? Yeah, so he hates it.
So I'm probably going to take it back. Okay, um, wait, where were we? Oh, we were still in.
Oh yeah, I got another combine. Tyler Owens Uh. He says that he keeps his hands strong by massaging cows. So he works on a farm pervert. And he'll just massage a cow's back for hours on end to strengthen his hands up. What happened to the good old rice bucket?
I don't know if this is a new rice bucket, the leather bucket, yeah. And then we also had, uh, the Wyoming guy.
With the Mullet who ran like a five oh 40, which is awesome linemen, he looks cool. Yeah, that that's how I would if I was a N.FL GM, I would.
Only I wouldn't watch any of the tape, I just watched the combine. I'd have the Wyoming guy blocking for Joe Milton, throwing it to Xavier worthy Superbowl. Tell me how you stopped that? How do you stop that?
That's a that's a championship team. Uh, okay, speaking of championship teams. HENRY Yep, so Dynasty, we haven't been watching the Patriots documentary.
It's six episodes. In the last two episodes were Tom Brady's Uh, 2008 ACL and then Aaron Hernandez. Um, before you give us your number one patriot of all time, actually, just give it to us, Brady, okay?
Uh, that was great, um, this documentary.
I think it's having the reverse effect that that Robert Kraft thought it was going to have he, he, it. He planned this documentary to get into the Hall of Fame, and it's so clearly slanted towards Robert Kraft, but it's so, so slanted towards Robert Kraft that it's completely making.
Me hate Robert Kraft and unnecessarily like they're going over the top to slant it, they.
Blamed Aaron Hernandez on Bill Belichick and basically made it like Robert Kraft was trying to save him. One piece that was crazy. That like, glossed over Robert Kraft, telling the story about how after Aaron Hernandez had killed Odin Lloyd Lloyd. He went into the, uh, the locker room and saw him working out Aaron Hernandez. And was like, Tell me if you did it, If you did it, we'll find the best lawyer in the world. He was basically like, just let me know that if you're a murderer.
We'll defend you well, he said. Aaron, tell me, did you do it? Because if you did it and you had a really good reason to do it, then I trust you. And I'll get you the best defense attorney possible to get you off right. And and that's crazy.
So he was, and then he. He was upset with Aaron when Aaron lied to him about being in. Like Rhode Island the day of it, uh, but it was very clearly like Robert Kraft was very close with Aaron Hernandez the entire time. And when they talk about the trade that Aaron wanted from Belichick and he wanted to go to the West Coast, and Belichick said, no. They definitely pointed at that and said, Bill Belichick is responsible for. Like, the murder of, Uh, basically said that, which is crazy because Aaron Hernandez had already committed a murder to double murder, double murder. Well, he's not guilty, though he did that.
He did that.
And Bill Belichick did what every NFL coach in the in the league would have done, being like, why would I trade this incredible tight end that we drafted who has been, like, just ripping up the league? He's three years into his career and I told him, Do you need help? do you need the personal security?
He said, No, I want to trade, why would you trade him if he's going to be vague about it? So this entire documentary, though, is like Robert Kraft, trying to basically take all the credit for the Patriots success holding Bill Belichick hostage in these interviews. Cause he was like, I'm not talking about this.
I can't even believe Bill Belichick.
Sat down for this, he's got to be mad. There's no way that. But I don't think those are coming.
Out the way, he thought, going to Belichick or Kraft? Oh no, I think Belichick knows exactly how these were going to come across. I think he knows when he sat down that it was going to be a Robert Kraft spin zone. And I think he banked on people having a brain in their skull, like us, and watching it and being like, What is Robert Kraft doing?
Do you think that Bill Belichick would?
Have ever sat down for these interviews if they had filmed them? After the scene was over and after? He was no longer the coach? Cause I don't think he would have, I think they probably not.
I think they filmed it. Obviously. When he was the coach and Robert Kraft was like, Hey, I want you to sit down for this interview, he was like, Okay, but it's so over the top, slanted.
Towards Robert Kraft that everyone is watching it being like this is clearly like almost propaganda at this point, and I don't believe it. And they're not letting Belichick like Belichick was smart, actually, how he did it. He's just not part, he's participating in the fact that he's sitting there, but he's not actually participating in any of it. Because he's just giving non-answers and he's letting the world decide.
And the world is deciding that they're just basically doing a.
Hit piece on Bill Belichick Yeah, he's there to talk football. They're they're not really showing a lot of right, right? The last two episodes have had, like, no football, because.
Who is responsible for the football success is Bill Belichick and Tom Brady. Robert Kraft is responsible for the organization. So they basically been like, let's do a documentary about Robert Kraft and call it Patriot Dynasty, and they basically did the whole Matt Castle.
Episode to be like, Yeah, Bill Belichick was a good coach. He got them, you know, to 11 and five, just so they could absolutely rip them down in the next one, right? Yeah, it's weird.
Cause that thing is, we'll hold Mac like that Matt Castle episode. It's a it's called Dynasty like good season, whatever, 11 and five. They didn't even make the playoffs in the in the 20 year Dynasty run. That was one of a few seasons to not make the playoffs. Why highlight an entire episode on that?
Well, so the only thing I'll say about that is you can't do the entire documentary. Just being like, we won and then we won again, and then we won again. Just cause it's not that interesting. You have to show the low points, but you're. They showed two Super Bowls in 10 minutes and then they did a collapse on Matt Castle for Aaron Hernandez.
I agree they didn't show any of the.
Run-up of them getting back to the Super Bowl against the Giants, No, it was just like, Blah, blah, blah. the Giants beat us again in the Super Bowl, right? Um, also crazy part with the Matt Castle cause.
There's field gold in the AFC Championship. That Raven game was crazy there. In those seasons, they did show some good football. I take it, I take it back.
They showed some good football. In the Matt Castle episode, there was some interesting stuff about how they used him in a different way than they use. Tom BraDy Um, but one of the craziest parts that I never knew when Tom Brady tours ACL, he tried to come back and play.
He goes out on the practice field and he's like, Fuck it, just tape my knee up. I'm going to play an entire season on a torn ACL. And then the training staff had to pull him aside and be like, Tom, you cannot do this. That was not possible.
But it goes to show you, like, Tom, Brady was definitely thinking I. I could very easily lose my job due to this injury, the same way that blood cell loss is to mine. But crazy that he, like, went out there, he showed up to work the next week, like, No, I'm still the quarterback.
Tape it up. Yeah, no, that was, that was nuts. I thought the same thing. I was like, that's insane that he tried to do it. But Hank like, you can't do the documentary and just show the good stuff. But I agree they just don't. They've slanted it so far to just the bad stuff and just the bad Belichick stuff.
Where it's like, spike, like it's been four every little football gate. Bill Belichick basically was holding Aaron Hernandez hand when he shot Odin Lloyd. Like, it's crazy, it's, I think it's having the reverse effect, though. I think anyone who's watching it, who's who's watching it, with, like, just unbiased perspective, I'm watching it. And being like, this is so slanted towards Robert Kraft, he looks like a dick.
I think, I think they're.
Going to, they're going to yada yada yada the Second Dynasty too, and then focus on.
The Belichick It's going to get a lot. Yeah, you can see. Hold on, I'll look it up.
Well.
The the one of the thumbnails is Belichick, and it says, like, Belichick, everyone's mad, cause Belichick, you know, keeps a player out of a big game, which alludes to Malcolm Butler.
I don't know, I don't know how they're going to address that, but the 28 to three is going to have an entire episode. All right. So here are the probably not they're probably gonna be like. And the Patriots came back 28 to three.
That would, actually. That'd be very funny if they were doing a story about the dynasty of the Patriots and they spent like 30 seconds on that.
Football game. So episode seven is deflate gate. it's under pressure, and it says it's basically deflate gate. Episode eight is score. To settle, with Jimmy Garoppolo nipping at his heels and a coach that may not have his back, Brady Stage is one of the greatest comebacks in sports history.
So that's going to be Brady versus Belichick Breaking point is tensions boil over when Belichick makes a questionable decision on the biggest stage. That's Malcolm Butler end game. After a decade long run, the Dynasty crumbles. So yeah, this is just this is just no pro Belichick whatsoever.
No Malcolm Butler, like, cause, it's it's again, it's Deflate gate, Jimmy Garoppolo, Uh uh, Belichick benching, Malcolm Butler, and then the end of the Dynasty.
So I think that most people that understand the complexities behind how the documentary was set up would probably take that same point of view. But I think 99 of people that watch it are just going to be like, Wow, Belichick's a real dick. Because they don't, they don't understand that. It's like a Robert Kraft documentary, I think, though, like an unbiased view that does not have any idea how this whole thing was set up is going to watch it. And there, I don't know, that's when it flipped for me. But he comes off as such a dick because he's not answering the questions.
And he's basically saying, like, I don't want to talk about any of the things that you're discussing the documentary. People that don't know how this interview was set up and how like the dynamics behind Kraft and Belichick are going to watch and be like, Yeah, coach is just.
A dick, yeah, but this is these are NFL fans. a dick and a murderer, yeah, but these are NFL fans.
They know who Belichick is. I just maybe we're maybe, cause we we cover the NFL and we know all these stories so well. But I just, I just watch it and I'm like, that that Aaron Hernandez episode.
Was crazy to me. Yeah, it was crazy. If you're going to call one coach a murderer, it should be Urban Meyer, Yeah.
In that situation, and they kind of glossed over that they did. There were like three things that happened to Aaron when he was at Florida that they did not discuss. Yeah, they had a fixer.
They brought up a fixer, basically saying we had a lawyer that would just pay people off to drop charges. Yeah, yeah, uh, who's your honorable mention, Aaron Hernandez?
Oh, if they're going to give them a full episode, yeah, well, I also want to.
Like, they're like, Gronk got drafted Aaron Hernandez The story of Gronk getting in.
Trouble within five minutes. It's great. That is funny, yeah, cause he was dancing on the stage.
Too long and like all right gronk, get off. Even even the draft shots where it's like they're making sure that Robert crafts in all of these videos, it's just crazy to me. Ernie Adams, by the way, is a star of it. Oh, just cause every time he opens his mouth, it's great.
For sure, the star. Well, he also said the Seattle thing like that. No one else said we should have traded him to the Seattle Seahawks. I remember that story that in there.
I remember.
That story, though, when it was happening, it might've been happening, didn't, don't you remember?
That story was happening. I mean, I'll never forget the when we were with Zoltan Mesko.
Yeah, we were with Zoltan Mesko every single time the day that Aaron Hernandez got arrested.
With Like the helicopter, we were filming a picture with the in the white shirt and orange.
Shorts. We were filming a punt video not too far from Foxborough, and, uh, we saw the helicopter and we're like, Hey, this is Aaron Hernandez. Like, cause? Obviously, it was leading up to it.
He was, he had been questioned and all that stuff, and he just was like, Yeah, that dude's pretty crazy. Like, I mean, even the Wes Welker story, yeah, everyone in the locker room knew.
Yeah, Wes Welker being like, he's going to say some fucked up shit, just ignore it.
He's going to, he's going to stand up and like Jack off at his own locker, he's going to say the most outlandish shit. I wanted more examples of, like, what's the weird over the line stuff that he was saying at the time that everybody knew about? Deon Branch even said when he was like, I, I shouldn't know, like, Yeah, it seems like Aaron Hernandez was basically talking about, like, murdering people in the locker room.
But that should have been everyone in the locker room knew.
Like, like Zoltan, Mesko did not blink. Yeah, but that the thing is not every, not every guy who has issues ends up being a murderer. But this happens in every locker room in America. Because it's if a guy is that good, he gets excused for things and it's like, Well, he's weird.
But he scores touchdowns. I'd also like to take this opportunity to educate our audience about something. If you did watch the documentary, you were misled about. A pretty significant fact that we want to correct here. Uh, they said that Aaron Hernandez was the first serial killer in the history of the NFL. That's not true.
That's not true, that's not true. There was a man by the name of Randall Woodfield that played for who the Green Bay Packers played for the Green Bay Packers. I believe in the Seventies. He's also known as the I Five killer.
He killed, they suspect, up to 41 people. Wow, and that's all on the hands of the Packers for every owner. He killed 41 people for the Packers.
He killed 41 people. He was, he was a packer. I don't know if that was his job at the time. If it sounds like he was like his roster spot was knife, uh, but he killed up to 41 people. And uh, yeah. So he is the only serial killer in the history of the NFL. Because Hernandez's convictions got vacated, because he was appealing them when he offed himself.
Yeah, bad guy, for sure. Aaron Hernandez This is an interesting sentence. The rookie symposium when Chris was like, Yeah, you guys are smoking that cushion.
You're going to keep smoking that cushion. He was like, Hell, yeah, that was kind of funny. Uh, it's. It's always funny to just looking back 10 years. And he was like sitting next to the Pouncey brothers, like 15 years ago in America.
If you smoked weed, people would be like, you might kill somebody.
Yeah, they. I think that was the Chris Carter Fall Guy symposium, he got under a lot of shit for being like, you should have a fall guy. They should have probably showed that part, Aaron Hernandez, they should have showed Chris Carter saying that, and Aaron Hernandez sleeping during.
It, I'm like, Well, we didn't have a fall guy. Yeah, that Boston Globe guys, unbelievable.
Unbelievable, like shocking quote, the guy that he was the one that, said Belichick.
Basically murdered, yeah, and Robert Kraft being like, we let down the whole community, like, basically trying to he, he. They set it up so perfectly, like Belichick killed them, and then Robert Kraft apologizing to, and Jonathan Kraft being like, I couldn't wait.
I had to cut him. Yeah, like, Okay, well, this is crazy. The whole thing it would, that was nuts, Um, okay.
Let's get to Who's back? and then we have Dan Quinn. Great interview with Dan Quinn, Who's back of the week? It's brought to you by our friends at Coors Light.

We had some 60 degrees sunny days in Chicago, that is Coors light drinking season. Oh yeah, I felt it, I felt it.
Uh, okay, Hank, you're who's back of the week?
Um, who's back of the week is March? It is, yeah, this is March 13 years ago.
Yep, I had this engagement party in March, I was unable to attend. He was angry and the relationship was never the same, but I always felt that he wasn't truly a great guy. Then Kemba Walker happened.
Life always has a fine, life always has a way of working itself out. Yeah, that is from John Rothstein.
Uh, I had that as well. On my Who's back, I'm going to say something crazy. I mean, I think John Rothstein's right here.
Engagement party is a joke for guys, for guys, yeah, that's a.
Fucking joke. It's an engagement party just for, like, a guy or a girl I would assume it's for.
Both of them, right? You have a wedding, yeah, it's so optional. engagement party is the most optional thing in the world.
Engagement party is a fucking bullshit thing that no one should even have or be invited to. John Rothstein deserves credit here. He made the right choice. Kemba Walker happened. Why are you shaking your head, Max?
Uh, I'm not, I'm not okay. Yeah, cause, yeah, you agree, engagement parties are a joke.
Yeah, no, I don't care about it, no one should.
It's just another way for the bride to be, to show off to all her friends who aren't engaged yet.
Look, I got one and get gifts. Parties is like, if someone gets engaged, you tell all your friends around, let's go to a bar, let's, let's, let's have a beer. And if someone doesn't show up? Especially John Rothstein, who has to work for March, although this might've been before he was working in college basketball. Either way, engagement party bullshit. I stand with John Rothstein.
People were were roasting him. That was just a very John Rothstein thing to say, yeah.
Did you expect John Rothstein to attend your engagement party during March? Yeah, this guy.
I'm going to, I'm going to go one for this. John Rothstein was right. This guy's a fucking schmuck, he's a schmuck. What did he say?
I never had a good feeling about the guy. What'd he say, I?
Never thought he was, I never thought he. I always felt that he wasn't truly a great guy.
Because he didn't respect college basketball. Imagine, imagine being that guy reading that.
Tweet being like, What the fuck yeah, dude, an engagement party? If you're a guy, are you? There's no chance you're asking your friends with a straight face, Hey, would you want to come to my engagement in March Conference Championship week?
But Max is right, and per usual, I've always said that about Max. He's got great taste. And things you invite your boys to go out for, like some beers, and then you have a good time. Yeah, this is the John Rothstein was.
100 right? And, uh, I liked the replies that were great. The first reply was I divorced my wife so I could watch March madness. best decision I ever made. Wives are temporary. March is forever.
In fact, uh, it is March, it's fucking March, it's very March right now, it's so.
May in Chicago, this is the most March that it's ever been, and it rocks the other one.
My wife went into labor right when the Thursday first round games tipped off in 2019.
I told her I was busy watching March. Luckily, her boyfriend was able to drive her to the hospital LSU Yale.
Was more important. Yep, yep, this is March, you should just lie and say every year that you got a vasectomy during March.
It's like, it's a yearly thing, you have to get it re-upped so I can't leave my couch. This is March. Uh, okay.
My who's back of the week is artificial intelligence in the NFL? Okay, so there is a potential rule change that's going to be happening, maybe as early as next year, but probably the year after that. Uh, the NFL and a few different games has been experimenting with measuring down and distance using the Hawkeye technology that they use for tennis.
Okay, meaning the chain gangs will be no more. And I don't like it, I don't like it at all. And I'll tell you why. People are always like, Oh, we're measuring like this billion dollar industry with a chain and sticks held by old, retired guys on the sideline.
Yeah, that's part of why it rocks. It's kind of cool that we have a fucking chain, that they have to sprint out onto the field and look, because here's what makes it cool. If you're, if you have a rooting interest in that game and they bring the chain gang out there, it's like another play that happens, that you get to celebrate. When they're a little bit short, if you're on defense, you get that bump, you get that extra crowd boost.
You just you freak out on your couch and you got the TV. Yeah, fuck yeah, we stopped you bitch, you get excited about that shit.
And if you make the first down, that's like another play that you just got a first down on. If it's all Hawkeye technology, sometimes the technology is too good to the point where you don't. It feels like you're not watching human beings play sport anymore. Yeah, I mean, I've said this a million times.
I'll say it again, if you, uh, put AI into sports and you make robot UMps and robot referees. You are depriving men of somewhere between 50 and 75 of the conversations they have with each other. You can't do that. The world will crumble if we can't complain about the refs.
What the fuck are we going to talk about? Nothing? Yeah, the and and the chain gang thing is like, people always get upset, like, I can't believe we got that bad spot.
We got the chains coming out and we're still using this technology. Yeah, we are, and it's awesome. And, uh, I understand that it's something that you want to complain about. If your team doesn't get a first down where you think that you should have gotten a first down. But it's fun, like this is one of the things that.
Think about a world where your team loses a huge, massive game. And you can't go online afterwards and share a bunch of screenshots for weeks and weeks and weeks, showing how your team was actually held more than them. Or this call was wrong? That's not a world I want to live in. That's how we cope as men. Well, we have to have a coping mechanism when things don't go our way.
You don't say, well, my team is bad, you say, well, the ref screwed us. We're also going to.
Have to look into the histories behind the people that work for the Hawkeye technology. Because people will be like, Oh, they grew up in Boston, they're a Patriots fan. Oh, they grew up in, uh, in like Charlotte, North Carolina. They're a Panthers fan. And they're going to use that to explain why they're. They're best funded them that we can.
Yeah, David, maybe this guy worked for a company that David Tepper bought out and then bulldozed to the ground at some point. Yep.
They've got a beef against David Tepper. Did you see the new, Uh, kickoff rules are thrown out?
There they're going to do the XFL, it sounds. Sam Schwartzstein Yeah, I actually like it.
We should call that the SaM rule, it's the SAM rule. So, from what I understand well, I don't like the onsite kick thing, where you can only do it when you're down and you have to.
Declare that you're doing it, I don't mind it because you're allowed to. They're bringing back, being allowed to overload which side of the field you have players on. Which is why we haven't had any onsite kick recoveries in, like the last two years, it feels like, but the sneak attack onsite?
Kick is awesome, it is fun. Yeah, we shouldn't take that away. Um, the new kickoff rule, though, I like it's essentially, if I understand it correctly, the kickoff team is kicking from the 40.
You have to kick it. Any touchback is the 35, if it lands in the end zone, it's a 35,.
It lands, uh, between, I want to say, the 35 and the goal line, and then rolls into the end zone. It's a 20 yard touch, right? So you want kickers to land the ball in the field of play and then.
Have it rolling, yeah, and they're, they're basically essentially trying to get kickoff returns back in the game, but less violent, so there's less there. It's not, you know, 60 yards of guys running at each other.
It's, you know, 30 yards of guys running at each other and teams will have an incentive to run it back. More so that they, yeah, I'm in for it.
Yeah, I'm in for that and I like what they're doing to the onsite kick. Except I agree, I think.
You should be allowed to sneak attack, you have to be able to sneak attack. Uh, okay, my who's back of the week is Sydney Sweeney. She was on SNL.
Yeah, she was great, she was really good, I saw her thanking everyone. People are saying, Is Sydney Sweeney bringing back tits?
Were they ever gone? Well, there's been, I don't know what would you say, a decade run where asses have been number one. Max hates tits.
He does, he hates fucking them, he hates looking at them. But people are saying Sydney Sweeney might be, she might. We might look back in history and be like.
When did Tits come back? Sydney Sweeney I also love the fact that there was a nutritionist online that tried to take credit for Sydney Sweeney's diet. And Sydney Sweeney had to be like, I've never met this woman before, don't listen to her.
Her diet is not what we're all thinking of. If there was a diet that made that happen, then that would be something special. Yeah, but I don't think anyone's concerned about her diet, yeah.
They I saw a great meme it was.
Like, they fill us with garbage. And it was like all the milk products that we get given now and then they. They give us solutions, and it's like soy milk and everything. And then it says, they deprive us of what we need. And it's just Sydney Sweeney's tits. I looked at some of those tweets.
Today, and, uh, an insane, a preposterous number of bookmarks, oh yeah, on any Sydney Sweeney post ever. I mean, I have a couple bookmarked, yeah.
They're, um, they're highly. If you, if you're looking for bookmarked engagement, I I highly recommend posting Sydney Sweeney.
Let me see where's that one that I bookmarked? What is the purpose of bookmarking something? Uh, for this exact reason?
Why don't you just smash the like button? well, because then you?
Have to scroll back from watch farther, okay, so Bookmark is like a super light, it's a super.
Secret like, Yeah, my bookmarks are very funny. It's Sydney Sweeney, it's a Lion's head coach, Dan Campbell and his fourth down decisions.
Um, oh, this one hurts. Wisconsin won't make it to Sweet 16 this year. I'll delete my Twitter if they do that, I'm going to unbookmark, cause I won't need to go back to that.
Um, it's a Dan Hurley clip, and that's about it. Yeah, okay.
All my bookmarks are when I get into a bookmark battle with hank, hank. Oh, here's one hank.
Who's Aiden Ross Streamer? Why the fuck is he in the news every day? Explain it to Hank.
Hank Hot the Streets. He came up playing NBA 2K and then he started doing like IRL streams, having rappers over his house doing freestyles, went super viral. Doing that, okay, signed a big deal with kick.
Okay is a partial. I don't know what that is. It's a rival streaming service with Twitch, Rumble, YouTube, all the. It's one of those, Um, signed a big deal with them. He's a like owner of the entire platform, so he's also helping get other kick creators on there.
I think he has an army of of people that make clips for him, so his clips go everywhere, but he's like.
I feel like he's always in beef or getting scammed or something. He got scammed by 21 savage he got.
Scammed by playboy Cardi? That's kind of a thing, though. Well, he does like he does, he's. He's had a lot of his success doing streams with rappers, but then it's kind of blown up and he's gotten scammed a couple of times. But for him, getting scammed also plays, cause it's like, Yeah, that's all I see.
It's all, it's views. Every other day, he gets like a hundred thousand people watching them. Okay, I'm looking back through my bookmarks right now.
How can I possibly have bookmarks? That happened in 2021? The bookmark wasn't around then, right? I don't know. maybe it was because my first bookmark is it wasn't an Elon thing.
Is AJ Titties saying, Babe, what the does Bonk mean? There you go, that's a bookmark since I bookmarked it, there's.
Treasures. You should become like a minefield. I don't even know what the the bots have become so good, so you just don't know if they're real or not. They're all, they're all like AI.
Yeah, they're like repeating things that you say, but in a way that you think it's a real reply, Yeah.
I saw this one guy who was like, Man, the engagement on the size, off the charts, how awesome is this? He was just scrolling through Twitter and then clicking Reply and had an AI button next to it and it would just generate a reply. And he did that for like, 30 seconds, so he's like, isn't this cool?
And everyone's like, No dude, you're, you're actively killing the.
Internet, Yeah, what the hell? It's a minefield. What do you got, Hank?
You got some of your.
Bookmarks. Matthew Stafford is six and two against the spread as a visitor on Monday night football.
Uh, and then my other one is, this is good, this is. Guys, read their bookmarks. If you dunk a basketball, I'll name my firstborn Henry Lockwood Rozier. I don't care what my baby mama say I'll.

Uh, no, I have four TVs in my gym though, so that's good. That's sick. I'm going to start doing it.
It was so nice outside, though, like you can have the nicest home gym. And you just look outside and you're like, Uh, if I work out, I should be working out outside, and then you just never work.
Out, I'm focused on diet right now, Donnie's been cooking me meals, she's trying to eat clean. We'll work.
We'll work out when we get, when we, when we lose some pounds. Okay, uh, speaking of this.
Interview coming up I have a bookmark from Hank Lockwood sent on February 1st, 2024. When Schefter announced that the commanders are hiring Dan Quinn, it just says, Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
I'm glad you thought that was so funny. Hank Okay, honestly. Great interview. Yeah, great, great, great guy.

Okay.
We now welcome on a very special guest. It is Head coach of the Washington Commanders. Dan Quinn. Coach, all-time football guy, let's just start there. You're one of our favorite football guys. It feels like every time we see you, you know when you were on the Cowboys or the Falcons, like, there's Dan Quinn with his hat backwards, just loving football.
So thank you for getting the job. You're going to be part of this show now because obviously Pft a huge Commanders fan. What is the first? You know you're what a month in? What's the first thing that you've done to change the culture or football culture, and bring the Dan Quinn football culture to?
WASHINGTON You know, I'm pumped about it. And one, it's cool to be on your guy's show, man. And as we're getting into it, we just want to make sure we can set out to set a team. That that helped create a nightmare for other people. Man, like, when you play us, you say, these guys are fucking bringing it.
And the attitude, the intensity to swagger that goes with that. That's what I, you know, I'm setting out to do. And so it starts with personnel. And that's why it's cool to be, you know, with Adam. Like he's got. He's a lead at it in terms of finding the right people, at the right fit to do it. And then on the personnel, excuse me, the scheme side, the coaching side, I thought we. It was cool to see how many people wanted to be a part of this, yeah.
And so, like the amount of coaches that we were able to attract, some that we couldn't, you know, add to it, like. But that told me a lot about what the organization means to say, like, people were wanting to be a part of it. Then. The third piece is like, that play style, the attitude that you play with, the hitting, the physicality, the ball hawking, the explosive plays. So, like, all three of those things are going to be what's going to make our team that? And then once that comes into place, then we, then we've, then we put the gas on it, man.
Yeah, I like it, and I like, I like just thinking about being a nightmare. Yeah, it's a cool visual.
Like, when somebody comes to play, it's like, man, it's going to be a hard game. Bro. Yeah, you better bring your shit and like, it's going to be a fight and so that's what I want us to be. That doesn't mean you're going to win everyone, but it does mean that, like, Hey man, you better, you better be ready.
These guys finish, they're aggressive and if we can create that kind of identity, the wins will follow.
I like that, I liked it. Very important question for me, right off the bat the backwards hat. When did you decide to go with a backwards hat?
What was that decision like in your mind? When you're like, Okay, I'm going to be a defense coordinator for Dallas. I'm going to put the hat backwards. We're, we're. We're turning over a new page right now, and then the follow-up to that is, Are we keeping the backwards hat this year? On the side?
Yeah, I think it's somehow the hat is definitely taking on a life of its own, which I was unaware of. Colin Coward hates it.
Yeah, okay, well, have you seen over the top? Yes, of course, because I always assumed when you go backwards, that's when it's going on.
It's on right now.
So I would say, um, I probably would do it like the whole life. Sometimes it's backward, I'd say maybe 70, but not all the time, you know? And uh, that's just like how I like to wear them, and so it's it's, uh, kind of what I do and how I do it.
So, uh, yeah, that's how we'll play.
Okay, I like that. And on a serious note, when you were figuring out what you want to do for your next step. I know you had some interviews last year, you had other teams interested this year. How did you? You? You said in your introductory press conference that you're waiting for the right position, with the right alignment to open up.
What does that mean? What was it about the commander's job this off season that separated itself from all the other opportunities?
Right, and, uh, you know, it's cool to be at the like. All 32 of them are different, and like, they're all awesome, and there's only 32 of these things in the whole world. And so that is bad-ass. But having done one before, I also know I have to find the right fit for me, too, to be at my very best.
And so I was looking for, you know, really specific thing. And if it, if I didn't find it, I wasn't going to have to go chase it. You know, like I was happy doing what I was doing. But if there was a space that could create, you know, from ownership to general manager and allowing us to have, you know, like, to create that kind of identity. I was talking about, like, you'd be crazy not to take that up. And so it just so happens that, like, when all this alignment came, it's like, that's it, that's the one. And so going through that process, you know, you're guarded, but you're like, damn, you know, like you want this one to happen. Cause, you know, you can help create it there. And to have the chance to do it like a historic franchise, where, like football, means a lot to this community.
And so like I grew up watching the NFC East, you know, I grew up in New Jersey. And so like, you know, I remember seeing games and watching games. And so knowing how important this franchise is to the NFL and to the community. Like that meant something to me too. So, like every once in a while, when the stars align, man, you got to fucking go, let it rip, and this was my moment to go.
Do that? It's a football.
Town, too. It hasn't been recently as much, but the opportunity is definitely there in D.C. to be the one team that, like, ties the entire community together. I think it's a great opportunity, too. I really think it's like a sleeping giant. And when you said, like, I like to do hard shit with tough people, or what was it?
What's the quote you like to say? I like to do hard shit with good people, hard shit with good people, that's the best.
Yeah, I like doing good shit with hard people too. Yeah, yeah, hard shit.
Both things are good. Yeah, yeah, all right, I'm gonna bring.
Up a bad memory. And I would assume when people say they're going to bring up a bad memory with you, you're thinking Superbowl. This is not a Superbowl question. This is a bad memory for me, specifically because I am a gambler. I want to take you back to 2015..
I want to take you back to I think it was week nine or 10.
You're playing the San Francisco 49ers. Do you remember what happened in that game? Yes, why did you kick a field goal on the one yard line?
Yeah, no shit, right. I was so upset, I actually went back and I looked at, How much do I owe you?
Listen, I looked back at my blog and I'll say this I was. At least. I defended you a little bit, can I tell?
You why it was going to go Okay, yeah, yeah, all right.
So we had a fantastic place, kicker.
Matt Bryant, you were down four with four minutes left on the one yard line, so I thought.
We'll kick it, we'll stop them, we'll go drive it again, Matt'll kick it again. So it was pretty easy for me to see it at the time.
Made no sense, that's because you weren't there. Yeah, well, all right. So here's what I wrote.
How much do I owe you? This is what I wrote, this is what.
I wrote, and I defended you a little bit, you shouldn't. I started the blog with Dan Quinn, shouldn't be fired. He is just in year one.
There you go. But he should have to take the most rigorous neurological exams known to man. Also he should 100 be fired.
Well.
The first part was definitely fair. So, like, I think, what happens as you're going through it? Like, those are scars you have. Yeah, me too, I still have that scar.
I think that's why sometimes you're better on your second lap. Yeah, like, I had to go through those and make the mistakes and say, like, I ain't never doing that again. Yeah, okay.
So are you? Can I get that?
Promise from you Oh yeah, all right. If you're ever down four on the one yard line again under four minutes, you will not kick a field goal, that's right.
There we go, I love it that.
Feels good we're growing, but no, like on a serious note, like, Yeah, I regretted that, yeah.
Like, I had a clear vision, all right, you know? Like we weren't exactly like crushing it in, so like we had got stopped three other times at the one. So it wasn't like, you know what I mean?
Like, Okay, let's just slam it again, you know? So, like, So there was a thought to say, kick it, stop them, go, and they weren't hitting that, they're like. It wasn't like a shootout of a game.
Yeah, so I thought, Okay, this plan. Then when you don't hit it, it's a scar that you're there. But you do have to learn from those. And I say, when you go through and you make mistakes, I'm not doing that again, but you have to. You do have to go through them. It sucks.
But you did, and I did. I feel like this is a healing moment, I finally can put this to bed. Because I, I also didn't tell you that. Like, probably for the next five years. Anytime a team was like fourth and one on the one, I'd be like, Dan Quinn would kick it here. Uh, so I, I did do that as well, but I. It brings up a good point that I actually wanted to ask a serious question.
A lot of head coaches the second time around, they have a lot more success because they did learn. So is there one specific thing that you learned at your time in Atlanta that you're like, This is what I'm gonna do, different and we're going to be better off for.
It, yeah, I would say there's way more than just one specific thing, but I think that's why you have that space to do that. Where I had, you know, three years to say, what would this look like, what would this look like? From staffing to personnel to, you know? However, you want to think about it like, you can slice it in a lot of different ways. But having specific plans in place just for that, you know, reason alone, so there's a ton of them. But um, those are all the lessons that you go through and say, all right, man, when I get this chance, if it happens again, like I.
Ain't missing that. Yeah, yeah, I believe you, I believe you when you say that, too.
Uh, it's funny that Big cat brought up the field goal thing. Because I was talking to, Uh, to Sean, the PR guy for the commanders beforehand. And he was like, What kind of questions do you think you're going to talk to? Coach? I was like, I think Big Cat's going to bring up this one field goal in 2015..
He sounds like he didn't harden his heart, but he definitely did so. I was carrying it around.
It was a weight. I feel like I'm going to sleep well for the first time in eight years. Yeah, safe.
Place I feel like we're at a good space right now. Yeah, you promised me I've got a little.
Visual exercise here. That I was hoping we could, we could do together. Coach Um, so, um, I printed out a picture here. Um, these are two guys, well, really, three guys, but um, the guy on your left here, that's Drake, Yep, right?
And the guy on your left here, his name's Caleb. Yep, right, so just looking at Caleb and Drake, which guy do you like more? I would say Drake.
Oh, you like Drake more than Caleb? Oh, and that the fat guy in the middle, his name's Jane Daniels. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So like, So you still like Drake? I can't even see it, honestly? Yeah, but Drake, But you said, Drake, Drake really jumped off the page, yeah.
Drake wearing the blue right now, I think.
He just had a little more swag, look, a little tougher, okay? and, uh, so I kind of been drawn to more toughness. So I would say, I mean, maybe you guys like Khakis, I don't know.
It's not my.
Thing, it's a good answer. So how, how involved are you right now in in the scouting process and the draft process? Is that going to be a primarily Adams call, or is that going to be a combined call? is it going to be group decision, or is ownership involved in that?
Well, it's definitely Adams.
First, you know, like that's his superpower. And uh, so the best thing you know when you see a coach and a general manager working together is knowing what players you need to fit the system. And that's been one of Adam's strengths, you know, wherever he's been, like, whatever the team needs, that's what he's going to find. It's not like this is the only type of quarterback or the only type of receiver.
And I think the best of the best do that to say, hey, this is what the team needs and how to fit them in. So I like being part of that process. I've always liked the scouting side of coaching. I think if I wasn't coaching, I would want to do something like that because of. I like seeing how you could feature a player, what unique stuff they have. And then how do we put them into the offense or the defense, or in a return game, that's unique.
So when you have and you can find those kinds of players like, all right, what would we do and how would we feature that player? And that's kind of the fun part of coaching. Yeah, yeah, Dan Quinn is being brought to you by.

One other part that I would assume is fun of coaching is like, you don't get enough credit, your coaching tree. You've got a lot of guys who coached under you Atlanta, who now have head coaching jobs. I'd have to imagine that's one of the best feelings to be able to have guys come along and then go fulfill their dreams throughout the league. Absolutely, because if you played some.
Small part in that, to share a philosophy, share a lesson, share something, allow them to do their thing. I absolutely am that there'll be a number on this staff as well that's here in Washington, that's going to rock it. I am super proud to see some of these guys at league meetings, Kyle and Matt and Raheem and Mike.
I'm sure we'll all have a beer together and hang out those times. That's a really cool thing. I'm super proud of those guys. Were your feelings hurt a little bit?
