up your Harvard degree by getting you know a degree in astrophys what was it astrop physiology nicotine I guess so they end up starting this company so this is like essentially the Mom and Pop Shop of Nic nicotine you're supporting a small business just by putting that in your lip right now I do like small businesses yeah um that's huge you want to talk football first you want to talk about something else whatever you guys got all right Trump was almost Donald Trump Assassination Attempt assassinated days politically who you V for so yeah are you Republican or Democrat does that make you happy when you saw that or sad I mean I think that's just a sad thing in general I mean no matter what side of the aisle you're on I think you know that's an issue in the country obviously is just they're so divided in any sense and um yeah that was definitely a tough one are you GNA play it right now yeah you yeah that was uh that's a wild scene I think there's a few different angles right few different angles let put on the tinfoil hats assassination attempt inside job or complete setup move by the Trump campaign I think there's three there's three layers there three layers out there that you can uh you know dip your to well hold on before we do that I think we should also both give the insurance policy being like yes that was wrong no one should have done that there you go no one should have done that it was wrong we need to not fight way honest it's just embarrassing that we're at that that we've gotten to this point yeah there hasn't been an assassination attempt since what Bush right3 years 43 years that's crazy rean I thought but there was an assassination attemp on OG Bush but I might be speaking out of my ass I kind of saw that in a tweet and I kind of took that information kept it and didn't look into it at allt you're probably right there's probably an attempt but it just got and there's levels of badass and I think this is the Pinnacle of badass after getting shot like say what you want repub Demi you do whatever you want but when it comes to Trump and getting Demi getting getting Graz in the side of the ear standing up and saying I want my shoes and says wait wait and then puts the fist up as everyone's chanting USA and then that iconic photo of him getting going off the stage with the flag in the background that is badass it couldn't happen more perfectly I mean like with with everything that he led up to I mean that was insane dude and if that's uh an assassination attempt if he just doesn't move his head he's dead CRA part about you know what I mean yes like it's he's dead I know and there is I mean it is fun to jump into the conspiracies of every single situation right do we really land on the moon 9/11 lizard people all those types of things what's Colorado airport about but this is interesting because there was a video that came out I wonder know if you can find it Sherm Daddy but there is a video of the sniper to Stage right to the left of the camera view of trump speaking and his scope is where or his his uh gun is pointing a certain direction he looks up and then you hear the gunshots go up and he gets back down and pulls a trigger so that tells you he saw something suspicious going on anytime you see a guy you don't know with a gun on top of a roof and the gun is pointed towards the area you're supposed to be protecting probably pull the trigger sooner rather than later but it brings in the idea that I think a little bit of an inside job you think it was a set up by Trump I think it was both a real assassination attempt because you got you got you got all the you check all the boxes right like young white kid with a rifle on top of a roof like that seems what usually happens that seems to be what usually happens um then you got what you're explaining with the sniper being up there seeing something and getting back on his gun like the dude people pedestrians are able to take photos of this kid and you're saying the Secret Service or all the people that are on this job was not able to see this kid or understand what was happening and there was another interview after the whole thing it was this cat with like a red visor on yes with a the fake hair he saying something was trying to tell the police and they didn't seem to do anything about it I think there's a little bit well there's been videos of like people filming the guy walk up the the roof or whatever and then lay down like calling his name to what calling the local police like hey there's a guy up there on the RO like I don't know how that doesn't get relayed but we've all seen shooter like what's the other what's the what's the Netflix series as well yeah the recent one as a college shooter no there's a there was a Netflix series it's like uh the president dies so the independent was the vice president he actually takes over for the country oh I know it's like I know it's I don't remember designated yeah designated Survivor yeah good pull JP and uh dude these teams that are on this stuff like you don't miss something like that at all whatsoever and the ability like I want to say somebody talked about him at a press conference one time with somebody maybe having a gun they had him off the stage within seconds M this one it seemed like people weren't back like you had some people still standing up I don't know just seems a little fishy to the board and there's that guy there's a guy sitting behind Trump he's like wearing a black like Fedora and he's got hair and when everybody starts a duck he doesn't move at all and then he mouths something and people are saying he's mouthing like now you know yeah or something like that something crazy something crazy something crazy those were the things that I love to like oh I wonder what this means yeah that guy right there in the top left corner of that photo yeah that's wild and he's like holding his phone up and then you see people like kind of start ducking he just goes like this doesn't move at all then if you play the game of total setup job by the Trump campaign like Trump he's been in the WWE he's been in the ring he's beat a Vincent like what if he just drops to the ground you hear some shots and he just takes a blade to his ear to me insanely genius chess move if you're watching it from a bird's eye view just you know being like a commentator on the whole thing right because it is yeah it's a it's a horrible thing would happen but now everyone is basically saying that there's no way this guy doesn't run away with it yeah and what was hilarious too is you sat back and this me this video was going around like what what uh Joe Biden would have to do to get back in the race of trump and it's Vince McMahon getting into this limo and then the limo just blows up oh what uh yeah so Lucy Breakers are you know it's a great great seg yeah great pouch to to chew on well we didn't get a what your thought though you think it's an inside job and we're having fun here right there's no you're not going to get in trouble we're just I'm not yeah I mean he's in the NFL they'll defin politics yeah it's tough I mean it goes either way pretty quickly yeah no doubt he will text you I'm sure no I don't I don't know that it was an inside job I think it was definitely a little sketchy on how the whole thing happened but um you know I think it is it's it's kind of been a leadup you know over the last whatever 12 years since Obama gotten out of office you know the last three elections have kind of been a you know they talk about it as a Do or Die thing and that's like that's tough to you know somebody's going to take that real you know like so I mean it's it's it's hard to continue the the rhetoric of oh it's a Do or Die election and assume that nobody's going to do something drastic you know which is kind of crazy um so I think just the rhetoric in in the United States and in America like it's an election you know go vote rather than oh this is the end of democracy or this is the end of you know civilization if if one guy wins or the other and that goes both ways but like it's kind of crazy the the amount of like people are surprised now that like this happened and it's like it is surprising and it should be surprising but like there's been such a leadup to it it's crazy and it's also in the in the weird corner of it not being surprising because you know there are people there are people that like you know wish he would have got shot right oh yeah which is crazy there's people that wish that wish Biden would tip over yeah before it all before the election happens right I'm I'm just saying like I feel like those are those are things that people out deep dark corners of the internet talk about I don't think they're that deep and dark I feel like a lot of people are like damn yeah but nobody actively comes out and says [ __ ] like that you know I mean it's like when something like that happens you'll be seeing stuff pop up on like oh man wish they would have wish he would have died or something like that which is crazy yeah yeah I think we're in a unique spot too because you really the next time Trump speaks obviously everybody's gonna be tuned in but what a what a spot to where it's like everybody is just denouncing all this violence and where we've gotten to and all this divisiveness because that's where it's been I feel like the middle the majority of the middle now are you know speaking up a little bit more just because you feel like you're shunned if you talk about one or the other because it's such a Do or Die people make it believe it's such a Do or Die situation it's like this 20-year-old he was 12 when Trump first got elected it's like what wonder what's driving or what's cultivated his mind unless it's like you know there's the Kookie inside job to where he was just kind of like the kid who was going to do it and they just took advantage of some mentally unstable cat but if it was his own doing he was 12 when uh Trump first got elected like what has been going on in his mind up until that point to where he thinks he has to climb a roof and try to pull a trigger on the president the vacc to be try to remembered that way welcome to bus with the boys yeah dude podcast for the boys by the boys by the boys I don't know D the older I get I just feel like it's there's all that deep um what do they call it deep the Deep State the Deep State JP's [ __ ] on top of it today he took his Alpha Brain because he's part of Q Andi yeah dude the Deep State all that stuff it just seems realer and realer to me like there's other people behind the black rocks the Rothchilds everyone's just kind of running things from the background yeah because how could how it's going to get so corrupt and now there's so much more information so many more videos being taken that things are just being found out faster and it just so quickly goes by in the in the the media cycle of 24 hours I've really found myself 32 years of age kind of believing what people are saying kind of believing the Deep State stuff but then you got people who are scared to even talk about it it's like I thought uh was it Garrett was it Garrett Wilson oh s Garder SAU Gardner yeah my fault my fault sauce but SAU is he he put up a couple tweets that are like real things he almost doesn't he's trying to like learn about stuff and be like you know why does your vote have to be deemed as something that is like yo you hate me now because I'm siding with let's say Trump or let's say Biden but he wrote up a couple tweets of like you know you got new people are coming to the fold that are trying to potentially educate themselves and people are like nervous to even do so or even talk about it because you get you get shunned immediately when you bring it up on you might be on one side of the other it's like a it's like such a side thing which is a a bad place to be it's obviously resulted in an assassination attempt yes that's tough yeah can you bring up if you just go to his timeline I think it's the most recent ones I like Fallen sauce man I I like yeah I like Fallen sauce said golf harder than the NFL he did I saw that and I was thinking in my head oh no I hope the boys don't see this tough keep going keep going keep scrolling yeah you're right it's right at the top my man pleas is that it hang on whoa hey okay so so bring up that initi one he did before he quote tweeted okay it says in all honesty I never voted before and I'm unfamiliar with politics but I do think it's odd to judge people based on who they vote for maybe it's not odd and I just don't understand because I'm not familiar with it somebody fill me I appreciate that authenticity because I do feel like a lot of especially with new cats coming to the fold in politics it's like yo what is why are people just so on edge all the time he says I say this because it's no such thing as a per as perfect people which means there will never be a perfect president it'll always be things that people don't like about what a president does and things they dislike so people could support a president based on one good thing that he or she will change in disregard the not so good things so it's not fair to judge someone based on who they vote for because that doesn't mean they have the same exact morale morals and values as the president which I thought was articulated well yeah I thought that was Artic out so shout out the boy s Gardner um yeah that's real I mean you can't hardly even have a conversation with people that like you know have different opinions because then it's just like it becomes a heated match and it's like that's not I mean you can have a different opinion and I can have a different opinion but like we're still we can still be boys you know like but that's almost not a thing anymore I find myself just leaning into more the humor side because you know you're not if you're trying to have like real conversations especially on the internet like they're just not going to you know you're not going to solve anything there no you can't win you're not going to change anybody's mind either right yeah people are too like walled off to all that it's crazy that like when we were kids you just like you don't talk about religion or politics at the dinner table and I feel like that's all it's talked about now especially when it's an election year it's like everyone's talking about this that and the other destroys some families too I mean like people like got re like people you can't even talk about it it's destroys bands what is this what do you got pulled up here we got the conspiracy theory Iceberg going on over here Conspiracy Theory Talk bringing up Denver Airport couple of those things yeah I've always loved the iceberg man this Iceberg photo has always been to the way we've seen the iceberg is just all about your character what you see on Sundays yeah what's below it yeah what's mirror world that we are actually living in the mirror world and that when we see the mirror that's and can you give JP the mic whoa the mirror world is like when you go into your bathroom and you look in your reflection that what you're seeing is actually the real world and you are the mirror world so you don't know where you exist hey do you see uh Neil degross Tyson talk about it's Neil the that's a scientist right yeah he was essentially saying in one clip that I saw so I could we think this out of context that it's very hard to argue that we're not in assimilation very difficult yeah that someone's not playing a game on us and chaos is always happening and the only time chaos stops happening is when the player playing our game goes to the bathroom or goes to sleep yeah have you has anybody seen the new TV show dark matter no I've heard about it though I love how TJ's here but he said like four words we're all like yo what about this dude a dark matter so you go into this black box right you inject yourself you go into this black box but it's like this unlimited Universe of like doors you can go into and depending on the thoughts and feelings you have that's what you're about to open into another world like another another world and so in this like somebody who was traveling with him stayed in a world and said I'm not going to go back in the box with you because I'm going to start a new life here because they're in a new universe they're in a new world the universe they want to be right and then toward the end of it it's like this guy who's a great actor he's the he's the teacher and the warrior oh to where all of these same cats make it to the same world he's in but just all the different realities that we could be potentially living in it's a it's an awesome show it's a good show sounds like a little bit of a Black Mirror yes I haven't watch Black Mirror is that where you get to choose like the next SC black Mir black mirrors are no no no no it's inter but yeah it's episode each episode is a new so you can just go through the episodes you can start at like 20 or whatever whatever and it's all like different plots different ideas but like a lot of it is like blackma well a lot that I've SE is like black male different universes different theories all kind of coming together and it's wild way out of the and no matter where you start they both have a starting point and what you end on is like an ending to that it's yeah yeah it's it's final like there's no almost like yeah like an hour and a half episodes and you really your mind goes into God kind like a movie yeah they're like little but goes back to conspiracy theories yeah are people truly this original with ideas or are they being fed these ideas and giving a small little hints to what's really going on in the world people kind to get you going a little bit it makes me it makes me want to throw back a couple cans the THC tonics for real have some conversation this reminds me of Jared Allen we had Jared Allen on and we just talk like conspiracy go back real quick go back what is uh the the Timeless man bro such a good the Timeless Enigma yeah let's see the elisium network was catching my brain elisium Network what's that I don't know I just saw it on the oh you saw on the thing we'll see that next um yo Jared Allen is the [ __ ] man though yeah he is awesome big into the curling he's I think he's starting a company yeah I'm um we're we did like a curling event with him like are you like on his te and a half yeah yeah so we're him and him me George I mean he's like the top of it but then George and I are kind of like um putting it on social and like kind of doing a bunch of stuff with it but okay it's huge it's sweet sport I mean we're like we go to the tal line over here all the time and just go throw some rocks man and you is it hard uh it would be it would it's not that bad I mean like you the first time you go is hard because like you don't quite understand like how hard to release it or how hard to push off but like you go two three times and then you'll be solid I mean you're an athlete like hand eye coordinations like you know you guys like creating a little team that's going to like travel around in the off season uh maybe I mean George and I kind of go George me B and um we we kind of go over there and and Trent Taylor we we all have play a little team and go play with the like leagues and we they just fit Us in every once in a while like Wednesday nights and go over there throwes got to get the tal line I'm pretty sure uh J drink some beer Jared's trying to like start a league yeah he is yeah he's doing all that talked about bsom being a part of that too I'd love to watch some curling get on it that would be fun yeah but it's hard to think about like curling from a TV standpoint like competing with something like pickle ball it be like like at the oo you know I mean like they have the bags and everything like I mean would love to commentate the oo yeah that would be a lot of fun bag is starting to pick up a feel like in popular I saw dequon Jones he he was on a squad he was he was hitting some um Deon shoton Dawkins the same team he's like one of the like the main guys in that like Las Vegas League yeah cuz he had us up about doing that in I think late last year about coming and doing that I think we would get body bag though maybe those guys are insane though like hole every time like Block in the front like d is a an actual talent yeah they have the slick and the sticky side like it goes It goes I didn't even know that existed till you just said that just now really yeah I thought they were both the same thing no my brother Cody when we do our cornhole cornhole tournament on during the Fourth of July he comes with his own set of bags and nobody else can play with him no one can touch him yeah nobody else can play with him that is a very Cody thing to do not mess with that he's like competing you know obviously to win he did not win this year oh really no he you got if you're the only guy to bring your own bags to a party and you lose brother you got to throw those guys away I know it is over is that what you want to do when you're done uh I don't know what I want to do you want to curl that I mean that'll be part of it probably I don't know what I'll do have you Cur play a lot of golf curl have you curled since the knee injury yeah yeah a couple TJ’s Knee Injury Recovery months ago yeah we were out there yeah I mean it it really hasn't like limited me too much that fact like I'm still like a normal person after like 12 weeks was when I could kind of start getting back into doing stuff like started playing golf cuz it's my right knee it's not the left so like I'm not like torquing on it um but yeah I mean it's kind of like a normal person now how's any he been doing been great yeah I mean we're running now doing uh doing a lot of change of Direction stuff like it's honestly I mean you know how it is like the first like when you get injured like your head goes into a dark place yeah it's a dark world it is and like you're not really sure like what you're going to do or how you're going to be after and then you know like once I got to probably 15 weeks when like 12 they start running letting me run and and I got to give credit obviously to a lot of the pts up in Minnesota like they've been incredible like super like hey when you're ready is when we'll start stuff like when you're ready to do this and that's been perfect cuz it's like at 12 weeks I wasn't on the field you know like I was starting to run in the pool and then I transition to the alter G and then I transitioned to the field and that was like the transition period and rather than hammering on it on at 12 weeks and going to the field and like just hobbling around like it was a straight progression and then like my confidence goes up and everything's been like a smooth transition so there's been a lot of people helping and um now with Jay hole like it's it's like regular training you know like Jay is the best and he does all this stuff and cutting everything doing doing some routes and like top of Route stuff and getting in it and I'm only five and a half months so and Jorge in their PT jge Griffin like mattyp or Matty Ice up in uh Minnesota like Tyler up in Minnesota those guys it was a smooth transition cuz like ELR did my surgery right gangster yeah incredible and then I had a I was with his p for like 3 weeks then I came down here with Griffin and um Jorge worked with them for like four weeks and then I went up to Minnesota and that was about the time I needed to start running and like lifting and like do the do the sticking and all that stuff you know run and stop and then was up there for like a couple months and then now coming down here and like starting to get back into the route tree with Jay and like coming out of the explosion stuff with Josh and then you know like all that stuff is has been huge it's been a straight transition that's been incredible and then I'll go back up to Minnesota on Saturday and then start rolling how's how's the uh how was the communication as you trans like transitioned from El's team down to here with Minesota going back and forth like was everybody pretty much on the same page yeah that's been like like the cool part about it is like you know the people up in Minnesota like Tyler and Maddie have been really like good about hey Colin ELR making sure like I'm doing the right stuff out there and then when I came down here like Maddie came down for four or five days that's my head head PT guy in Minnesota you know so he came down and hung out watched what I was doing did some corrections and stuff and was like super cool about everything and you know said some things that he wanted to put in there and Implement and then he knew where I was at went up there then I went up there and they knew exactly where I was at like what I was doing who you were with and who I was with and and then they like trusted like these people down here cuz you know they're the best of the best and then going up there transitioned and then coming down here again like start like obviously I'm running and doing change of Direction and all that stuff and like Maddie came down again uh like last week for a couple days and hung out watched Jay Hol do his stuff and he's like dude this is perfect for you like this is the best stuff for big time that is huge I've never heard of a NFL team trainer coming going somewhere for somebody to check on them right because for everybody like tuning in or listening to this it's usually teams are very nervous when they they want you to stay with them the entire time so that way they can oversee your rehab and everything else so the fact that they're traveling down and getting to know the cruise down here like that is big time it's huge it's huge and then it like they it gives them confidence for me to come down here too you know like if you ever have anything like they know who you're working with they know exactly what you're doing and they're happy about it cuz like like I say I mean these guys are the best but you can only tell them that they're the best but when they come and see it is when they like truly believe you know yeah so it was incredible you talked about that uh the dark place yeah what um there's a lot of different variables when it comes to going to dark place inevitably everybody hits it yours being the last game of the season yeah every two more left but two more left sorry at the end of the season cuz everyone legit I don't know if this goes through y all said but you think to yourself if I'm going to get hurt I want it to be early in the year so I can be ready for next year and then once you hit like that week 10 Mark you're like just Beed Nicks and bruisers at this point we need it did that play into yeah a little bit how Qui did you think about that and against Detroit yeah yeah that was the tough there's a lot of layers to the depression yeah for sure for sure I mean it was one of those things you know like it's week 16 I think was was it when it was and like you know I'm knocking on a thousand yards like I'm right there um like having a good season like obviously you know we were fighting for a playoff spot at that point like we needed to win that game and we were you know on the way and um you know then that was probably my second or third target in that game and um I mean you kind of know how it is cover two U stick nod like bending in the middle and then you know I turn around catch the ball and I look and all I really see is a fat Flash of blue like underneath me and it's like uhoh you know I try to stop and I feel it but I kind of thought I just hyperextended it like I didn't think it was like I didn't hear a pop I didn't hear anything and then I ran off the field like just jogged off not and then they checked it and I was like uh what the that small little twist there too yeah and so it got it got ACL MCO right and then impressive no meniscus yeah nothing with the meniscus but um [ __ ] you know like like I said I mean I just turned my head around um went up for the ball turned the head around and it was like oh no and then um got off to the side they were like yeah I think it might be ACL but you know they're like go shower it's done get the MRI and everything so you kind of get a little bit of Hope and then you finally get the news that night and it's like man that's that's that really sucks um but again they did a good job because it was like the MCL I didn't need to get fixed um like I had full range of motion after it happened and then they locked me in a brace for about a week um to get the MCL to heal down and then after that it was like all right we need you to get to 120 you know degrees to get it to bend and it was like at 100 after they locked me you know so it it's like that was kind of a a big process is trying to get it in and um ELR like like I said a really good job I went out there like a week and a half before surgery and then his PT guys were just in there cranking on it to get it to bend and do all that and um um yeah it was it was definitely a dark place CU you're like man I don't know what's going to H like what am I going to be the player I I was like you hear about it you hear about the ACL injuries and like everything it's it's a scary thing but you know at the point I'm at now like I feel really comfortable about being able to come back and and be the player I was and even be better and so that's that's kind of huge for me um but yeah like like I say you're not walking you're like m those my my wife is rolling me around like in a wheelchair like you go you go from like feeling Untouchable exactly to just getting up if you have to pee in the midd and like like bro how am I going to go do this like can I hold it no I can't I got to wake up exactly you're significant other and then just going from going through it like playing and having your schedule having your routine the way it is and how intense and how like precise it is and then it's like hey you're done and now you're bed written for however many yeah cuz with a with meniscus it's like you can't put weight on it for 6 weeks yeah you're locked too locked and so then you the only time you take it off is for PT and then you're sleeping with that brace on yeah what those six weeks like obviously the scaries are hitting you the depression scares but like what are you doing to pass the time you pick up a video game yeah I played a lot of cod a lot of cod a lot of chill yeah was kicking it on the video games but yeah I mean like you say I mean it was like ELR he went in there he looked at it and he was when I woke up he was like your miniscus looks great like looks perfect you know we just had to fix the M the ACL that MCL had a stopping point so we were good there he's like you should be good so like that was the best part like you say I was I was nervous that I was going to get locked in the brace and I was going to be screwed but like right away they're bending it they're doing everything again trying to get the range of motion back I'm on a bike like so in about two weeks like it was it was braces on but I'm walking you know and then 3 weeks brace was off and now I'm walking and so it was kind of like a smooth transition after that but I yeah like I said I couldn't imagine like being locked in the brace for yeah six weeks they give you that little machine where you like put your foot in it like moves it yeah I dreaded it every day really oh my gosh dude you liked it I didn't it's not that I liked it but like my brain would be like you're getting better just by laying 100% you know like well it was like 10° every day they told me 10 degrees every day so like I started at like 60 or it's easy and then easy and then you go 80 then you go 90 and then like you know 6 days in you're at like 120 I'm like this is like the first two I might really be Wolverine I'm super human with this like the first two suck and then you start to get warmed up and you're like all right I can do this for however they want me to how hard has it been to stay patient because obviously as athletes we all place like expectations on ourselves to get back by a certain timeline how hard has it been for you to like stay patient throughout the process and kind of trust what everybody else is telling you um like going in the training camp I'm sure again in your mind you have some time that you would like to be back or outdo those expectations 100% you know I think they have done a really good job by like being like hey like I'm not going to let you do this you know CU I'm I told them right at the beginning when I did it and after I got the surgery I was like you're going to have to stop me because like I'm a person that likes to push the limits and like I want to do things and I'll do it and I'll say it doesn't really bother me even though it probably did a little bit and so like they're they've been really good about being like hey you can't do this you know and like now I'm at the point where I can almost do everything I mean the only thing right now that's kind of limiting me is I can't run 15 yards and then cut right off of it like that's just still dangerous I could probably do it but like they're like like I said I'm only five and a half months out so I got time you know um it'll be like I I I think these guys are really smart about the timeline you know because like biology is biology and you come back seven months there's like a 25% risk of injury eight months like 15 you come back after nine it's like less than five you know so it's like I think they're they're going to be really smart with how they do it and how they transition and and they have a lot of Science and a lot of like you know measurements where they can measure my left to my right now and so that's huge but yeah I mean it like I'm I'm fortunate enough that I'm in the time I am with with medicine and like um like how everything is and and PT and the progression of everything because if this happened you know 10 or 15 years ago you know you talk to guys and they're like yeah my knee's still screwed up but like I'm like I said I'm only at 5 and a half and it's starting to feel like like it was again you know start feel normal you don't have any of that no pain nothing I haven't really had the pain I mean like yeah I like I'll do a little shock wave if I get something but then it's gone um so I haven't really had the like crazy pain in it um so it's been huge but yeah I mean I like I said I've been I've been kind of fortunate enough because it's kind of been like a smooth progression and I haven't had a day where like obviously knock on W but like I haven't had a day where I'm like oh [ __ ] this is worse today than it was yesterday like I'm I've been a smooth progression up and that's been it's uh it's awesome to have a doctor like Ella who has like this like almost like too confident like cocky kind of attitude about him he brags about the scar but this the the pois in which he comes looks like he floats into the room and the way he speaks to you you're like this is the guy I definitely want doing my surgery then his team as well I thought when I spent a couple weeks there I thought they were absolutely incredible amazing unreal dude and it was great too because like you know I again I was at 120 and then I went I went in for surgery like 3 days or four days it might have been five days before I actually had it like I went in the day before like that day had was going to have surgery they shaved my leg they like give me everything they put me on hook me up to an IV elros comes in and he's like he bends my knee he's like nope not there yet I go home like what what what you say not there yet for like cuz I wasn't at 120 like I was at like 115 or 1118 he's like nope not there yet so I like oh okay so sent me home and then I went to the PT like an hour later they were cranking on it and then I got to 120 that day and then 5 days later I was at like 1:30 you know so he was like good thing we waited and then 5 days later like I went and got it and he's like this is going to be perfect like you don't have to worry about anything like the surgery went absolutely incredible like couldn't have gone any better you know I'm like all right let's go the words that make you truly feel amazing let's go you know yeah the uh the only thing that you feel any bit better is what will buying some tickets to game time

got to be a voice of the people so let's just say we're in a different When Will He Be Back? Hobbies let's call it fantasy football would you advise us to put you on our on our draft board are we looking waiver wi let's say London game week five week six I don't know you'll have to call Roger I don't know if I'll get in trouble for any inside information fair enough what a way to try hey should we put you on the day one board when we're all at Taylor's house drafting for fantasy football or we looking hey your name's going to be up there it's just how far down the list is it on there yeah I think that's for you to decide fair enough late round guy late round guy still drafted got to because you see the Articles coming out they say you're what return week five London and you see you you get to play in London have you played in London before I haven't no there's that'll be a little bit of excitement there yeah I'm excited either excitement or hey thank God I might not have to go to London yeah cuz can I tell you something it's a great experience but it does suck yeah I'm sure the time change is insane it's it depends how you do it B you guys are I think we're doing the three day thing yeah Eastern we're Central you're probably going to go out flow on Thursday back after the game I I think so that is the I think the best way to do it as far as like you just shocked about it because you you're supposed to sleep all the way there and on the way back you stay up all night really which is a nice little deal because you basically land back though right you land back in Minnesota like I think in the morning or at night or something like that it's it pivots in a way where you can go to sleep when you land back yeah in the in the United States you can go to sleep when you land back yeah you might on the way there you throw yourself a little ambient in knock out for about seven hours and then it's hit the ground run and you got to make special does that work I've never tried it ambient yeah it works does it the same does it yeah I did it for our first Ling game from Washington yeah I think a gummy just go it doesn't it doesn't it doesn't work like it doesn't work that well because you're just you're all [ __ ] up anyway you know what I mean yeah like before you travel on the plane you have the rookies or the guys go get whatever it is let's say Pot Bellies and you're eating that as your meal before you get on the plane you're trying to fall asleep you can't necessarily fall asleep because it's truly right after practice Yeah and then when you got to make the meetings right when you get there like it it's it's abysmal now the positive POS is coach is usually pretty good you only do like a helmet's only practice like a walkthrough Style just to get hey let's just get our feet under us like just put your focus into this boys we know this sucks right food the food there's not that [ __ ] good it's ass dude brutal it's [ __ ] ass brutal I me look at that photo you got fish and chips right there know that's fish that's all you'll get there eggs over there like the hotel the hotels that I've been at over there it's like when they cater the food in the morning or make the food in the morning the eggs taste different it's just not that [ __ ] good soggy eggs that you get at most hotels the soupy eggs dude why why do we do that they're the wor that right there they'll do they'll like have those little eggs sitting out I don't what do you even call those they like hardboiled kind of a soft poached egg that's a PO don't have the shell on it do they the Bacon's real the Bacon's real thin real thin and floppy not very appetizing not a lot of ass behind them but hey uh London is where 4.5 started by Cory 11 we get there the way there they give us sandwiches and Cory goes not a whole lot of ass behind this and we're like oh rate it for us Cory and he literally described it and then just said 4.5 and that's truly how 4.5 was established you I don't even know you know a lot of people I I know you've seen this but a lot of people think it's Shane's bit I because of the something's burning that is truly that's actually Cory L yeah I was going to give us the credit but that's Cory 11's joke that is Cory 11 4 point 4.5 is a rating system that we do but we never do 4.5 out of blah we just give a description and at the end say 4.5 and the whole rating system is based on the description you get right so if I were to say Lu could be at of 10 or could be the best 4.5 you've ever heard or the worst 4.5 we know we know in life nothing's perfect that's why it's always a 4.5 oh even it's at 4.6 that's wisdom right there that is I like that always always a little piece to get better yeah we did our wedding in Hawaii like three TJ Got Married weeks ago hey congratulations on that bro thank you appreciate congratulations on that that uh that time change coming back kicked my ass yeah that that is 5 hours like behind uh then I had to do a photo shoot the next day sucked photo shoot for the yeah wife oh talking Nike yeah yeah like something cool yeah yeah something cool yeah unreal unreal how was your how was your game in The Proposal uh it was good it was super chill like we're we're kind of like uh we're we're two people that small town people obviously and it's not like a big ordeal you know like we're what you do tell us about your bag she's a she's a big horse person so like we did it at her mom her mom's got some land out in uh Eastern Tennessee and yeah there you go she got some land out in Eastern Tennessee so we did a little horseback ride and then after um uh we were out in the middle of a field or whatever and I got down and she got down and we we hung out for a second and then it y I love just dudes bro such a dude story talking about we uh we in the fields and I asked her bro talk about how nervous you were to ass oh insanely everybody once they get the ring I was not nervous even like on the on the like horse ride I wasn't nervous at all and then when we got on our feet on the ground I was like shaking yes bro it is so make the decision like this is going to be the person and you feel so good about once the ring like in your hand you're legit like oh my God what am I doing it's the scariest thing ever yeah it is how did you ask you have a nice little you write a little something out or did you just say Hey listen here's the deal yeah I don't know honestly I kind of blacked out so she could tell you a little better I mean she says I I just said I love you right will you marry me so I don't know was she crying uh yeah were you crying yeah no I wasn't then and but at the wedding I had some tears coming out man did you guys do the whole like don't see each other the day of the wedding thing yeah no we didn't she didn't sleep in like in the same room with me the night before traditional cats I like traditional going to heaven for sure yeah that's the plan man thanks thank the Lord above no doubt but no it's it's been fun yeah it was an incredible experience we were out there for a week with just both of our families and a couple like real close friends and was 30 people and did boat ride es like played golf chilled out that was good super intimate nice little deal man Hawaii is a beautiful destination Neil gift you some uh a cryistal piece for the wedding ring to sit on no he so Neil got us meat from like as a wedding gift yeah like hell yeah yeah wagu beef sorry and sent you know where uh I don't remember where he sent it from but it's incredible like dude he was like an hour one day I think JP you were in the car I wouldn't be surprised if it was Diamond J wagu from fre Nebraska CU he like you know he just probes you on Costco and [ __ ] you know yoga yeah but this has nothing on Costco he said he's like this is the best you can't go anywhere neant Costco no he loves Costco Hees you get the king crab legs that's what he just talks about be hard fought to find a person that doesn't enjoy Costco yeah he's big on Costco I love cost you brought it the you and your wife are both from like small towns yeah getting Small Town To Big City Culture Shock how much of a culture shock was it for you when you got in the NFL all this money people wearing jewelry driving rolls-royces around coming from a small town yeah I try not to get caught up in that fact but yeah it it was nuts I mean when you go and like obviously from a small town you know like who you're talking to you know but then when you go to a big city and they know you but you don't know them it's a little weird you know like yeah uh Hey DJ how you know and you're you're like hey man like what's going on like how are you what's your name you know that kind of thing you get stuck in the awkward like am I supposed to know this yeah like yeah that's kind of what it was and no but like the whole Rolls-Royce like all that kind of stuff like I've never got of I've never been like a intangible person like I don't need certain things to feel you know successful I guess did you ever felt like uh kind of like you should maybe get something because you're in the NFL did you ever feel like you see all the people you see these 10year vets with all these things and part of you yeah no question but like there is that small town cat in you that's like I'm always going to be a small town cat I'm always going to be a bont Missouri a Cave Creek Arizona dude and then you get to the league and you see these guys rocking you know Maseratis and that you're like maybe I should get something for myself and there's always that like you got fight of character yeah you got fight but there's always a little bit of a deal where you're like should I be doing this though oh 100% yeah I get that a lot I like a little demon on their shoulder the one like chirping my ear on and then you get something nice you're like I wonder what my boys would say back home yo you driving this now you've changed you've changed changed that's the worst that really gets you in your head it really does ma' yeah off that what has been your biggest purchase cuz you signed a nice little Hefty deal not too long ago um biggest purchase so His Biggest Purchase + Hunting Talk far yeah like something that you've been like all right I'm G to splurge now on myself uh I got some land I got some land you got some land where at uh I got got some land in Iowa uh 150 acres let's go I feel like Brandon Sheriff did the same exact thing yeah I mean well I'm looking for some down here but it's insane dude yeah got 150 acres in Iowa okay after you spent that $47 what' you go and get that is crazy oh great deal th bucks an AC how much that cost 150 acres uh 300,000 no come on you're right way less what is it what it's dude people love hunting in Iowa like it's straight hunting land so like but what's the real estate out there like a parre uh like in Missouri it was like 1 to 5,000 it's probably like 10 8 to 10 like in where I was looking because it's like like I said it's like the best hunting land that you can get you know so so you got some stands out there you got a camp set up some stands some cams like I mean the I think the state record at least don't quote me on this but this is what I was told the state record yeah of course the state record was probably like 15 or 20 miles away from my land that was a buck so yeah dude hunting is such a thing that I want to be into so bad it's fun I want to be that guy yeah you just aren't no I just I just I don't think I've had enough access like we went and did uh I was going to say you kind of just thing I got to get you on that trip too to Texas yeah but like I have a bunch of boys that are always like you should come hunting with me and I just don't you and I should but when I when I do go I think to myself hey it' be great to do this more but then I get by myself again I'm like where do I [ __ ] start I can buy the gun but after that it's like I'm just going to walk around and like oh you're supposed to sit here for a long time oh bro yeah you can go down a rabbit hole for sure it's a crazy world I just feel I'm so far behind now it's hard for me to get into it because you get around the the meat eater guys like uh Steve and them and they're just encyclopedias when it comes to hunting this that and the other of all the things you can do and it's like man do I really want to dive into this world and I don't know all that like I'm not on that level but you make a duck call you could probably I can do that call a turkey yeah like I can I can do all that but I mean I don't know a lot of that stuff like I'd love to go hunting in Alaska like they talk about like elk hunting moose hunting Bear Grizzly I think Bear's the move that'd be so sick there was a buddy of mine that was like he was following this bear for a long time and like five or six miles and they were tracking it and then the bear they turned around and the bear was tracking them oh [ __ ] and so like a Mexican standoff yeah like like that's that's scary like you'd have to have a guide for that but yeah I think that would be sick like this is how green I am like I was in Canada camping with my family for 12 out of 14 days and legit every morning I woke up I was kind of nervous I want my wife to come with me outside cuz there'd be like bears and cougars everywhere yeah didn't see either yeah but I just think to myself these [ __ ] are out here right oh 100% they're out there doing their thing yeah my brother's like big into like going to Colorado and like camping he's got a Jeep that's like all set up he's got a rooftop tent all that and he'll go out and he's like lights a campfire and then he finds like a wooded area and he's got his dog but his dog will like just growl into the woods like around him and like he'll hear like cracking and stuff and he's just like you can't think about it you know you can't think about it but like he's also got you know a gun on his tip and everything but like that that's that's scary like being out there by yourself no one around anywhere Canada it's like to get a gun they don't really do the whole gun thing up there what you do hand toand combat with a bear like that is have a little pocket that's crazy I would feel so much safer if I had like a give me even a 22 something I can just crack off hey hey you know give me a pet gun just get yeah something man but it is kind of scary and it's so funny seeing like my wife and her mom and they're just like we'll be fine it's fine and I'm thinking to myself bro it's not cuz I'm the only I'm the only dude here we are not fine we're not fine cuz I'm thinking if something does happen I've got to be the one to sacrifice myself the whole women and children first thing the Titanic I've got I'm the only guy out there and they're saying it's going to be fun it's like yeah because I have to die right you know I'm the first sacrificial L yeah and I'm just I don't know if I'm man enough to do it brother like a pack of wolves would be the scariest ah see I don't think so man what what do you have like a pack of wolves like you talking pack of wolves would be that'd be insane crippling that's what I mean like I would rather see a Grizzly than a pack of wolves I don't know dude see yo you would piss down your leg if you were a pack of wolves out there your dog's gone one you see a bunch no no sorry you see a bunch of wolves it's like all right like you know shit's not going to go your way but there's a in my mind you're going to take one of those [ __ ] out first okay or at least get a couple punches you see a big like there's a bear that there's a video I just saw of a bear like rumaging through and photos he take of it and it's just a I mean that's pretty you got something to say grab the mic man well and then they like by the way if it is one wolf like you like your chances right yeah I like my CH but you're talk you're talking a pack of wolves like they're chirping from each angle like you're like like what which one's coming out but part of me is like if I just see one I'm I'll start fighting this one then eventually I'm going to get tuck but like you see a bit like you see that [ __ ] right there just looking at you that is so much scar Bears to me are the scariest and and people in Canada people in Canada are like oh you don't have to worry about bears you got worry about cougars cuz you don't see them till they got you I'm thinking oh my God JP you had something look at this dude pulled a pistol out yeah of course you filled in you you checked Giraffe Or Wolf? yourself we were having an argument about would you rather fight a giraffe or a wolf one rather fight a I fight a a wolf a giraffe or a wolf yeah giraffe is like stomping on you everybody was unanimous except for JP what and look at this one1 look at that thing I don't think they're getting as low as you are though that's what I'm saying but you're getting stomped out by I was at the I was at the Nashville Zoo and I was feeding like leuce exactly motherucker came out his face is here and then he stuck his tongue their tongues are this long they got that little confident show that thing real quick that boy can definitely touch but dude uh yeah and they got them they got the horns on top they just put that thing on you wolves to me is just a that's a dog dude no y'all ever see Rings

not seen the gray but I've seen I've seen this scene where he's like breaking the bottles taping his hands and he SE the I've seen that scene on Instagram which is like yeah it's crazy see that's a whole bunch of boys working together yeah let let let let JP get some words in oh no have you seen Lord of the Rings yeah no when I was little legless and them are taking down mammoths yeah who and a mammoth is be a whole lot tougher to take down than a giraffe this is a fictional movie A this a fictional situation bro a giraffe is [ __ ] you up first off to get to any main artery you got to climb up a damn tree to get that thing they're not even Killers who giraffes they'll kill your ass no question we'll see if you're a giraffe out there listen to the show oh this up this is the clip this is

that as an insult I guess don't laugh like that man you can't laugh at jokes I don't know but yeah you got to take down a wolf ma a singular wolf that's not a singular wolf for sure I mean we're going

fired up as everybody else is but like I got my I don't have my PlayStation down here it's up in Minnesota so5 guy yeah you know what I think it is are you an Xbox guy M the problem is he's young so your whole time in college you were not in the game I bet he was playing NCAA 14 yeah it was yeah there's something different about CJ Fedor something about being in the game the 14 yeah I'm so stoked for it do you know I was overall uh no do you 84 I mean that defense what that's what Nebraska is too stop it hey you like how I ratioed you on your birthday yeah get out of here what happened I saw that I was like I'm not even going to reply he tweeted he tweeted and goes it was his birthday he's like I appreciate everybody for all the birthday wishes I'm blessed or uh very blessed or whatever it is and I said you're not blessed you went to Iowa and just put him into Oblivion on his birthday you got him man that's crazy you got him yeah yeah I think this game's GNA end a lot of people's relationships in careers I heard the uh field goal thing is hard yeah I saw that video ien I haven't seen that it goes like super fast like the meter does does it really yeah I mean it should be difficult if you're trying to kick a game winning field goal see this is where dude I know you want the game to be a video you want it to be a video I want be a video game yeah I think I I mean but College kickers are worse right than the NFL so it should be harder and not only that but we're talking like a route tree if you want to you want to give a receiver a hot route they have 12 different routes that they can run so you can like build your own system like on the Fly and protection rattle through the protections again there you go uh you can uh Gap out you can slide one way man the other way you can go 5 which is five on five protection I'm sure you can bring in a tight end and go like a you know Y6 y7 you can simply ID the mic H2 H2 H3 which is all great and that's awesome yeah but I I I'm that's a lot of controls when I look at like NCA 14 how simple the game is as far as like you got your Juke moves you can do XYZ if you press harder it's more of a bullet pass if you tap it it kind of arcs it over and then you go to Madden it just seems like they put so much realism into it that it kind of takes away the enjoyment of playing the game and I I am more of a you know pessimistic when it comes to you're more of a casual you're more of a Joe separates pros and Joe's yeah I like the Casual stuff no I'm with you though because I don't play the game as much as I probably could or would like should but yeah but you play in real life I yeah yeah I don't want to know have to learn all the controls every time I play I can't wait should be easy it's gonna be fun to see I just it couldn't have come a better time Dynasty in with Nebraska or what oh yeah come on now that would be honestly probably the best team to do a dynasty with I I'm clearly biased I'm clearly biased but I'm talking I'm talking like I'm talking like the parameters of what would be a good a good team to start a dynasty pars for me it's like you got we got ra so you got good a good Young Young quarterback to start a good Dynasty somebody who's not like above 90 you want a team that you can build up to be like a five star program I think Nebraska is sitting around a three or three and a half star that's tough because they were five and 2014 a lot they were a lot of the streamers are saying like uh Nebraska's like the best team to do with because of exactly what you're saying like they're in the Big 10 they have riola they have like a some good players and like you can bring it you can bring like Nebraska back to start when that guy really wants to keep his when you're doing when you're doing recruiting I'm sure there'll be challenges I'm sure there'll be challenges trying to recruit guys to your school since you're not like a premier School let's just do it as a tear talk then okay best dynasties my Tier Talk - Best CFB25 Dynasties tier one is Nebraska okay you are you aware of tier talk yes all right start at three go to one obviously you can give aut mentions if you want but okay we're going to do uh best dynasties best okay teams to start a dynasty with on once or do we do three and then snake draft style that's what we do with KD on the stadiums we could do that again if we want so it once one gets drafted it's off the board it's off the board okay so we oh you want that I like that you like it now yeah so we started tier one then pretty much cuz you're do your first you're doing your first pick all right honors TJ yeah I'm doing Hawks obviously God you should took Nebraska I know I thought he was going was trying to serve him up I know the Hawks the Hawks would be a good one too cuz they're an 85 defense got and then you can if you're going to get players you can get a bunch of on offense too so Phil Parker Le in the defense though I'm right that's like Iowa football man never score over 20 they don't have to play good hard-nosed defense you guys might never have to what you mean cu the defense is so good they're keeping them under 20 every time those last two games you guys played though but also didn't uh didn't the OC get fired last year yes yeah Brian yeah so that's that's a positive right well yeah I mean yeah was he your OC yeah I love so I know you're not that was a little different but um you like you like scoring 10 points a game we didn't score 10 points a game we scored a lot more oh come on now I don't know how many look it up 20 what's Michigan's rating the game 2017 2018 should be 94 I think it was I mean I would need some more offense you call what it is bro yeah I mean but they're Pro style off offense I mean in college College it's a little like that's a little different right because everybody's doing spread now but they're adapting with the times yeah I mean but it's I mean they have more people go to the league because of it well tight ends you guys have tight ends well yeah but Old Line tight ends o lineman and white defensive players oh yeah bro yeah how about that crazy kuer dein that's got to be the proudest moment for you huh what you guys produ the first White DB since like 1800s yeah yeah no that is wild I mean dein's insane though like if you go back and like watch him playing basketball and stuff too like he's just a freak athlete so Taylor doesn't surprise me I could totally be reading this wrong but Michigan is not listed in the top 25 on CFB 25 that's incorrect it's got to be it's got to be because that's those are offensive Power Rankings when they go oh offive those are offensive okay no bad ideas no bad ideas because I do think they're not they're definitely not below an 83 overall as a team yeah we're I we're I think ranked in the top 10 you guys lost going the season you guys lost a lot of offensive power though yeah but you know good linebacker you guys lost a good linebacker right good boy yeah we got JJ now I know dude I want to talk about that too and it sucks you brought that up just now because we're in cheer talk so remind me to talk about that cuz you play with a lot of good quarterbacks yeah and just foot footnote that Nebraska with my first pick what are they 88 slept on I love it I love that all right nebras I'm going Nebraska for all the things we talked about you got a young freshman quarterback who's an 80 overall he's going to be trending upward very fast uh you're talking middle of the pack in offense and defense I think they're like an 84 across the board 84 overall 84 offense 84 defense they're a three and a half star program on cfb2 you got an you got an opportunity to build them back up to what they were back in the 90s some also say the Pini era um I'm going to go with Nebraska I think a great Foundation to build it makes it recruiting a little challenging which I think it will be very fun so Nebraska my first overall pick yeah based on the parameters I've just been told that that's a good pick and I wasn't going to pick Michigan because I thought they would be rated higher I thought they'd be in that upper eant like in the 90s but I'm going to you know what I'm not going to take Michigan I'm leave Michigan off the table I'm going to pick a team like Ohio State I actually hate that I'm picking this but it might be the best pick and that's South Carolina if you think if you think about it I mean you got that cat you were just telling me about who has the acceleration the speed of 99 but you've also got his name Nick haror Nick you've got a program that is in a prestigious conference that has been middle to lower lower pack and you want to bring that Prestige back or to a program that hasn't had a whole lot of success and kind of run a conference that is arguably the best we all know is second best conference but arguably the best conference I think the Gamecock is a good pick that's my pick and if you throw it on if you throw it on Heisman mode and like take your licks and try to get like say 78 win season like you have some challenges that will make that dynasty fun yeah which never really done before that's a good pick they were they were that's who I wanted for my second that's who I wanted for my second and I wanted to leave Michigan out of it because Michigan is a tough Dynasty pick just because they won the national championship last year yeah they've lost a lot of guys but they are top dogs they're top dogs in the food chain some say it's not a good look not to grab your team yeah it could be not a good look to grab my team but at the end of the day like the we're playing make believe right now boys I'm more care about what's going to happen during the season we'll find out September 7th when Michigan takes on the Longhorns that's going to be a great game I know but we're we're not going to [ __ ] be there cuz you Colorado Nebraska like that's a bigger game it's not come on will I'm telling you and everyone in here is probably going to agree with me that that is not a bigger I'm going because I [ __ ] I I love you bro and I know that game means so much to you but I'm pretty sure we'd like to see the Longhorns who were in the college football playoff last year versus the reigning national champions in an arbor m I'm I'm pretty sure we'd rather What atmosphere would you guys rather be at his don't say his you guys know my name well had the mic say it loud I think if a couple things go a different direction for Nebraska last year they could have won some games they could have made some noise and made the playoff making this year's game a little bit more interesting but slash I want my job there it is smart Michigan versus Texas is the game is the game that's the game without a doubt okay Mitch I hate that we're have to do this right now yeah I mean Michigan Texas is where you got to go I need more bu B board material for my season Michigan Texas for sure Garrett I think if the game was in Austin I would go to that one but I like the memorial game day atmosphere better than you like how quiet it is quiet hey know week I went to a game in Memorial last year and it was quiet after the first that's a different time bro michig bro what is is that the home opener the definition of insanity no about here's what I mean by that let me let me hear JPS South Carolina's got Kentucky on the seven all right but that's not one the choices uh yeah Michigan Texas and it G it's insane you just trying to go against the grand right right though the atmosphere is better at Nebraska than Michigan but the teams are better for Michigan vers Texas you want to go to Austin I want to go to Austin yeah but I also being going to Michigan I would want to go to Michigan and it's Gott a lot louder by the way guys you should know that it's got a lot louder I think it was actually rated uh top 25 loudest stadiums 25th it was in the 20s it was in the 20s for sure Iowa's got to be up there Iowa's Iowa does get kind of loud but CU they put the fans right up on you all that being said I'm going to go to your game no I know and what I the point I was going to make is with Michigan coming in like being the number one overall team it didn't take much to absolutely deflate that entire Stadium because you're right but I'm saying the expectation going into this year we're in the spot to where the expectations are like yo we really got a shot in week two that what the expectation is make a bowl game listen I'm telling you right now the expectation is not to just win six games bro is that what you're trying to tell me that all Nebraska we're just rooting for six wins this year if you if we get to the end of the season and you guys are a 500 team you're going to be so proud no I'm going to call for rules head shut the [ __ ] there's no way dude I'm gonna have to throw my hat in the ring no no no no this wasn't the thing I saw this wasn't the thing I saw take that off the screen take that off the screen he was in 20 top 25 quietest that's not what I saw there that's the thing with the internet man you can find anything to support whatever you want who is your second round pick uh I would take Texas Manning got the quarterback he's not your starter he's not well still on the team start him I don't know I I just like Texas I don't know Texas is a cool program yeah like I I grew up like watching them going to a lot of their their football games baseball games and so I kind of just like them that's what I would pick all right yeah okay period let me go wasn't a h train that pick I I I like the Texas pick you got the young quarterbacks you know but you are a team that's already you're already establishing they're already establishing he's somebody he's somebody who wants to go in and win right away Zer Challenge and from my understanding I've never played Dynasty before you want to pick a team that maybe doesn't have the prestige you wanted to have yeah with my second pick I think I'm going to go with uh the University of Miami I think that'd be a very fun one to bring back to life back to in the ACC at the moment um I'm going to go with Miami the recruiting would be a lot easier down in Florida but that that would be a fun team to bring back give me Hawaii for my pick I play an NCA 14 man I remember making creative players and just going to Hawaii and being like let me just bring this conference who has never seen the light as far as having any Prestige at all and bring them some success make Hawaii Honolulu a hot bed for recruiting where all the boys and girls want to come and be a part of a national championship team Hawaii is my second pick that'd be a very challenging one too I respect that pick I also really don't know what I'm doing right now kind of just saying [ __ ] just throw I'm just saying stuff yeah no I'm with you um I think the Air Force would be sick Air Force oh let's go let's go Gotta support the military yes I guess have to oh H man I want to hit a fun one there are a few out there but I think where where I'm going to dial in on is I was thinking about them but I think it's gonna be I don't know no that's a fun one let's go let's go Arizona [ __ ] let's go Arizona I was fun team right now Big 12 I don't know if I want that one all right take it off the board Colorado well Colorado would be fun but again they got two of the best players in the game it's like to me in my opinion you'd be able to with shadur and Travis Hunter you'd be able to win very fast in my opinion because I was dabbling with you got Arizona I like missou missou would be fun Kansas would be fun Kansas state would be fun J let's go missou let's go missou because we're talking uh SEC they're a fun school it would take a lot to build that program and really compete year in and year out in heisen mode in the SEC I'm gonna go with missou and they had that DN that came out in 2013 that's your favorite oh yes what was his name again Sam something Sam what was his last name I can't remember I only remember him from the videos Is It Michael yeah I can't remember Mich Sam I can't remember now that you say it Michael Sam um yeah my pick my pick's gonna be uh Arizona State University I think Dillingham out there and I dude I talk about this all I have no idea why ASU is not a hot bed for recruiting you're in Tempe you have Oldtown Scottdale you got Phoenix you got Sun every single day you lit got girls going to school in their bikini like it's one of those schools where it's like you got Blue Mountain State written all over it yeah but the facilties suck dude yeah they suck because they've never been good right yeah so you go you bring some boys in there that can really get it done and then all of a sudden the money starts coming guys Arizona by far is the most like fair weather fan base of all the states I believe they don't give a [ __ ] about sports teams unless they're good and the minute you start getting good ASU it is going to be a crazy Pride all around it you didn't go there yeah you're right I was trying to go to the league and everybody who's trying to play high level college football wants to go to the league and all you got to say is hey don't worry about all that external [ __ ] you want to come to a real program an NFL hot bed you come here because you're going to spend the majority of your time in the facility yeah an argument to that is is like you can enjoy everything and also be a star immediately you can build something beautiful and lay a foundation for a prestigious University and you can be one of the pillars that stands on with your statue sitting outside because there's only Patrick Tillman and you're the example you did not go there yeah you're right I didn't well there was never ASU offered me I thought hell yes but no no shot yeah like official visit let's take one a big reason why I didn't go to ASU was a bunch of kids from Sor went we're going to ASU and I was like I don't want to play with these guys if you can't win with your guys I don't about these dudes yeah Will ni help them and what will niil help Arizona State they got to find somebody give them money dude nil help bigger Market n helps the biggest programs the programs like Michigan like a Nebraska like these these schools that have a lot of history and a huge alumni like Michigan has one of the like the largest living alumni so they will have a bunch of people give money and they have people that you know the guy who owns the Dolphins also owns Michigan look at Ohio State if they win this year it's not because of their culture or how awesome they are it's because they spent the most money most nil money out of any program and talk about as I w't talk about Michigan that's an aster written all over you guys didn't earn that you guys bought that yeah I mean you guys had some pretty hefty allegations last year yeah and where are they now still there still people don't give a [ __ ] anymore still pending ball dipped everyone's like I guess we're cool I guess we're good and we got shiron Moore now yeah nil nil helps teams that I you're only going to know what kind of wallet that they have if they pour into the facilities you don't have anybody that pours into any facilities at Arizona State so even though you think that nil would help them I'm I'm pretty sure there's you got all these boosters not backing up the brings trucks should go pay for a roster you know what I mean they have so many holes too but that's why I think ASU is a great pick for dynasty because now you get to make all that happen for sure and Dilly is the man Dilly is the man the thing I love about Dillingham uh that's the head coach for ASU he doesn't want to go anywhere else was this that's where he's wanted to be forever born and bred Arizona cat went to high school with him and that's where he he wants to be it's what the Texas Tech uh baseball coach said too before he went to Texas mhm well great point it's a good point Dilly is the man though you sit there in his office and listen to his passion he oozes with it really yeah that'se yeah you like him um should we talk about best ball week at DraftKings here's why Taylor let me tell you why this is such a big deal draft King's best

lot of good quarterbacks we can get into that in just a minute but you talk about the 11th overall pick of a national championship winning team JJ McCarthy All The QBs He’s Played With comes in after Kurt Cousins is now in Atlanta what have you seen from the boy yeah he's been incredible has he yeah I mean well [ __ ] your he seemed like a worker yeah he's grinding in the film room he's grinding in the classroom like he's a baller on the field obviously but like to have a guy like especially a rookie you know when you come into a facility into the league like you you usually need to shut your mouth and like go to work and that that's exactly what he did like he's earned the respect of a lot of guys in there um obviously we have Sam darnold too who is a baller and is can can play the game at a really high level so it'll be interesting what happens with the lot with those two um but I'm excited that JJ's on our team and on our Squad I mean like I said he's he's a leader um he did that in Michigan and you know I'm sure it'll carry over the league just as well before the draft happened were you pretty bummed that Kirk went to Atlanta um yeah I you know I love Kirk I mean just a great dude but you can't fault a guy I mean you can only play this game for so long and so you know you may as well make the most of it as as you know that that he's done I mean he's made a lot of money in this league and so you can't fault him at all and obviously that's where Julie his wife is from and so they they have their Roots down there and they have family down there and um yeah I mean I wish nothing but the best for Kirk I mean just aess guy like just such a good dude Top Notch cat dud yeah like I mean he he still texts me like hey how you doing what's going on you know like hey can you you have any plays that you know like like that we ran last year that would be good that you remember you know stuff like that it just keeps in touch and so um you got to love that for my guy you know because it's not at the end of the day it's not just you were a teammate you know you were a friend and so that's that's pretty sweet from him you've got to play with some awesome quarterbacks as Taylor was saying how would you if you did tear him out who your that's that's aggressive um well you play with great quarterbacks let's standard great quarterbacks yeah 100% they they are all fantastic quart I mean like um coming into the league you know and I having Stafford like that was huge for me because Stafford was a guy that was like just get open like I'll throw it to you you know and so like that kind of Let Me Be Free my first couple years in the league like okay all I got to do is beat this guy in front of me and I don't really have to worry about much and staff will put it where I need to um and so that was uh a real stepping Stone and like where I've been able to get into the league um and then going from staff to JG you know JG is is like he's all about ball so like he knows like where you need to be at this certain time like when you need to be there like at what depth and that kind of stuff so that kind of taught me like the analytical part of it like why I need to be there based on coverages and like okay you know the League's gotten from you know a lot of man to three match to Zone to you know know like cover two and and being able to you know Ben Johnson was the OC and um and he was my tight ends coach for a few years in Detroit and so like he taught me a lot of that and then like he would when he became the OC he was he let me like read coverages and like you know hey we have a a pressure right now but like if it's cover two let's just hook on the inside of the numbers because that's where the void's at you know so um I think that was huge for like another stepping like actually learning defenses and understanding like what's going on rather than like hey just get open which was awesome like I love that don't get me wrong you know and then going from that to Kirk was you know it was kind of like a mix honestly because um Kirk was like Hey I don't care how you get there but like get there in this timing you know because like I'm playing off my back foot at this point so just get open at that time you know and that was huge and kind of taught me a lot of like the quarterback's progression like okay hey I'm on the backside I'm running a basic route but you know they say it's at 12 but really I can push this to 14 give him a little sauce at the top and be there for when Kirk needs me you know and you're you know you're running pressure okay hey you're my first read so if you don't get all the way to 10 not a big deal like hit it at eight and we'll be we'll move the sticks you know so like that was huge and just learning the quarterback position a little bit you know and and understanding what they're doing in the back field like they're going from here to here to here and that was that was that was a nice thing for me to like kind of learn and so um yeah now to have JJ and and Sam like those K those guys I mean obviously they're kind of learning their own and like figuring it out um Sam's obviously been in the league for a while but like JJ to have him out there and like you know he's he's trying to figure it out and like that it'll be it's cool cool because like you can talk to him about different things and like hey like what would you like here and he's like well I don't know let's try it you know and so then you you go out there and you try it and he's like I like that or I didn't like that you know like that'll be cool to kind of be able to have that communication with a guy like that that's young so um yeah I mean I would I've played with a lot of really good quarterbacks and um each one of them have been different which is cool how different is that for you having the quarterbacks with all that understand what they already like and they know to now being in the position you are where you're like kind of teaching more than you are learning yeah I mean it's it's definitely you know it like I say it was really good because each quarterback that I've been with is obviously at the top of the league like and then they have each have their own different little like thing and like what they like and so for me to be in the position I'm in right now with a Young quarterback coming in and um you can talk to him about like hey this is what staff liked hey this is what Kirk liked this is what JG liked you know and so um and he I'm sure he can take pieces from all that you know because and having a head coach who was a quarterback yeah and and KO is incredible I mean like KO is one of the one of the best like people like head like he just knows what's going on in football and like he understands the game so well and he's really good at you know you you get around coaches that understand the game really well but then they can't they're not as good at teaching it and KO was like really really good at being communicative and like teaching you like why this is and like why you do that and and that's that's that's hard to come by because you know I mean everybody in the league knows the game but like to be able to communicate how they know the game and like where they see it and how they see it that's different and so to have him in that room with um you know with JJ and is going to be a lot of fun for him and it's it's huge and to have KO around us like he comes in our room with an and um you know sits down and and then he'll come out and he'll talk to us and on the field we're running routes he'll be like hey keep this more vertical because of this coverage or like hey keep this you know you can spin out of this a little quicker because of that you know like you're the first read you're the second read you're the third read you're the last read you know that that kind of stuff so it's um it's definitely you know that like my knowledge of the game has has grown a lot just because of the people I've been around and um the people in Minnesota are incredible uh Ben Johnson was somebody who was in kind of like the you know people wanting him to be their head coach do you see him being a a yeah he can do like Ben can do whatever he wants to do I mean he's one of those people that if he puts his mind to something like he'll he'll do it and he is a is again another one of those people that like is really good at teaching the game and breaks it down into Simplicity like he'll like I I can't you know I mean like my rookie year like I had a tight ends coach who you know wasn't the the best in the world but like Ben and I would go and like sit down and watch film and he was the quality control the guy at the time you know so we would go to another room we would sit down watch film and he would break down like hey here's Travis's film this is why he does this this is why he's so good here's George's film this is why he does this this is why he's so good and then like being able to pull that and do like and understanding releases and like he'd break down you know different um route trees and like each part of the route you know and so that was huge I mean Ben's one of the best people I mean like I say I I talked to Ben a lot um he he he can easily be a head coach in this league and you know he's a he's a guy that people like to play for so yeah Getting Traded From The Lions take us to the moment where you got traded yeah how was that for you were you bitter at first no I wouldn't say so I mean like I kind of there was a lot of Articles coming out um because we were I think one and six at the time like articles of you being like on the trading block yeah CU was that your contract year were you coming up to the end of your contract yeah like I was in my fourth year at the time and so like I kind of like understood hey either they're gonna want to keep me here or they're GNA want to get rid of me and try to get some draft capital and so like I and I was having a really good year at the time with like not you know I wasn't getting the ball a ton but like being able to create separation and and when I did get the ball I'd make the most of it you know um and and yeah I think the last game I had a like three targets three catches and like 90 yards or something like that because you know we played Miami and it was like I I could I understood that they were you know they were kind of starting to get to that point and um you know you you have conversations you see like what's going on and you see the Articles coming out you know you just have conversations with the guys like oh like what's going on you know and everyone's like you're not leaving you know you're not going anywhere you know but they don't know because it's really solely up to the GM you know and so at that point um you know I got a call on Tuesday and was like hey you're getting traded to the Vikings and um appreciate it and have a good one I was like all right cool sounds good were you excited um bed no I was excited I was excited it was a fresh start for me um obviously I knew like I was going to play for Coach O conell who was a young coach and like it was his first year and he has he was six in one or something like that at the time and like just a really upand cominging coach and then to be able to get around him and um it was the best thing for me like God put me in the right place um like I I I I love Minnesota um I love love the team you know and and it really starts at the top with KO and and the ownership like those guys are incredible and it trickles down like I mean like I say you know you have your PT your head PT come down and like watch you do things and they want you to like live a life outside of football and like love people you know like that that doesn't come around in in this league very much I mean you guys know how Cut Throat it is and so um to have that and like to build relationships with those people in min inota and with the Vikings has been incredible like you don't find a a bad human being at any point like whenever you turn a corner there's there's somebody that you know and you you can have a conversation with them for 30 minutes and just like just about life it's not about anything and you know if there's a bad person that's in the facility it's found out really quick and they're gone you know like that's just what it is and and so they they really only attract good people um they really preach love and like being a team and like actually as much as a team as you can be in the NFL you know like that it's hard because everybody's in and out the door but um they're incredible like I it's really the best place for me and I hope I'm I'm there for a long time take me through the timeline a little bit more of like how the whole uh trading thing started like when the rumor started who was your first call cuz I know there's a lot of people probably listening to this that don't know what goes on behind closed doors in a locker room yeah and a lot of times guys find out they're traded on the the ticker and they just then they then all of a sudden they get a call from the GM for you when the rumor Meal start and then when did the actual transaction happen um the rumor mill started I think the week before I got traded like that week going up to the trade de line like there was a bunch of articles that were coming out like hey do we trade hackinson like who could we trade you know and then I just called Ben because like I say I have the best relationship I had the best relationship with him at the time and Dan was um newish I think at the time I think he might have been a year in and so I I called Ben and was just like hey like what's like what what are they thinking he's like dude you don't really have anything to worry about I you know like I love you um I think everybody around here has a lot of respect for you and what you're doing you're a good player and I don't think that's the thing you know and so I was like all right cool sounds good and then we lost to Miami that week and that and I was coming off of a a game where against Seattle where I had like 156 176 yards for two touchdowns like I I was coming off a game and you know we lost the game but you know I was I was playing well and um so I wasn't too worried about it and then Tuesday came around and I woke up and I was like We'll see put my phone on the ringer you know and I was in the facility for few hours um just doing PT and and Recovery stuff and then I left go to go to a chiropractor and got a call on my way to the chiropractor and was told I was traded and then even up to that call your your um your worries about being traded were pretty much put to rest because your conversation with Coach Johnson um yeah I mean pretty much like I like I still had a feeling obviously you know Neil kind of knows a lot of that stuff and he like can hear stuff and and so I kind of you know still was like okay I might I it's definitely a possibility like I but like for them to trade me within division like I wasn't expecting that at all but I mean I'm like again I'm so blessed and able to be there so I was excited when that happened but um yeah I wasn't I wasn't really necessarily expecting it but came and it's been a blessing is there a level of you're with the Lions and they haven't won a division in like the last 30 years until this past year and then you leave and now they're having that crazy success is there a part of you that's kind of like bitter towards that success um I mean you know obviously they're still in division so you like want to beat them and you want to win the division but you personally but I mean yeah not not not crazy but like I mean you you see it and you're like like what's going on you know you talk to people and they're just like you know like that I played with and they're just like it just started clicking like it was nothing got rid of you and everything just came into place [ __ ] well I mean you think about there the first like I I was only there for six games when um coach Ben got moved up to OC like head OC so like it was a learning curve for everybody like it it's not that's one of those places too like the terminology is a lot different like Ben makes it complicated so it's easy you know like if that makes sense like you know each way is a different term like so if you're on the right side be it'd be like I I don't know they'd be one term and if you're on the if you're going to the left same play be a different term so like you can still do all that at the line MH but it was a learning curve for a lot of guys cuz that's not what you do you know and they'd be code names so be like lobster and and whatever you know and um so that was a learning curve for everybody and so everybody was trying to figure it out and get used to it and there was a lot of hiccups throughout that first seven games um and then we all started kind of getting it after like week five and starting to kind of figure it out and then you know now they they've gotten it to click and Ben's I mean there's no doubt in my mind that Ben's like a huge part of that because he's just uh you know kind of like a mastermind in that in that kind of sense and um yeah I mean but I like bitterness like I I really was happy for like the boys that I used to play with you know like obviously they you I was in it for a long time it's a it's not fun to like go out and play and not really have any success and then um you know for them to have some success like I was happy for the guys that I played with um but you know I mean to obviously be in the same division there's a little bit of that because you guys want to be the team we want to be the team you want to be the team and also like every player ever played with they got traded or left their team anytime we played that team there was that was circled that was like we go to hey boys we got to [ __ ] get these guys yeah 100% it's got to we got if we can lose them all but not this one this is the one we have to win yeah so I just didn't know if you had any of those those types of feelings 100% I mean you always get a little Juiced up when you play them you know I mean you just want to see them and and you know at that point like I said when I got hurt that was that game and it was for really a playoff birth for us and so that was that was a huge game and um you know it could have gone either way at the time that I got injured and then you know I get injured and and it's still a close game but I think that was um it was tough for for all of us so um when the rumor mill starts are you did you and your girl ever play the game of like hey this place would be cool hey what about this place well we heard Miami um that was the biggest thing so kind of got excited about that didn't you it was I mean it's warm down there and you know but I mean when it when you talk about Minnesota and and their their name kind of started get like we heard like Neil heard their name and I was like that'd be nice because it's my like my family goes every game my parents go to every game um they haven't missed a game since I've been you know 13 and so like they were driving to Detroit all the time and that's eight hours there not including Chicago traffic you know and then eight hours back and so um it's only 4 hours from my hometown Minnesota is and so it's incredible for all of them and and for me to to be able to be around family my mom's from Minnesota so I have a bunch of extended family there so if I ever need anything you know I'm able to call them and I mean there's there is such thing as Minnesota nice you know like people around the the block around in your neighborhood like they just love and they want to help out you know without being weird about it you know like you know how some people can be when you know you're you are who you are and then they're like getting a little too close you know but that's usually not a thing there so it's it's been it's been awesome and like I said the the facilities are beautiful they're brand new um there's a reason it gets you know top two last year it was number one in the nflpa score like they do it right in Minnesota and um it's I'm was super lucky to be there dude take us talk about the temperature of last year Vikings Frustrations Last Season because you guys started off what how did you guys start did you start 0 and four yeah something like that which was I know had to be insanely frustrating because when we would do S&P and everything else it's like yo this is the best four lost team in the NFL like you guys only lost games because whether it be a bad turnover somebody dropping a ball at a crucial time like how frustrating was it because I know I would almost assume that KO the post game conversations and everything else is like you're trying to keep everybody up you guys start to make a run a very small run until Kirk blows out his Achilles take us back to early last year in the temperature of everything and doson came took over and crushed went out right and then dobs comes in which is that's an awesome story um it was a it was a wild year um in terms of a lot of things you know we were we obviously were a good team like we knew it going into the season like we were really excited about the season especially coming off of win year the year before and so um you know we lose the first game you know and it's like all right there's turnovers like that's on us like we need to win you know and then we lose second game L third game and it's like we really got to pick our [ __ ] up yeah it's like like everybody had like a you know your butthole gets pretty tight and like you're just like let's go like what are we doing like we're we are so good and we're not showing it on Sundays which was frustrating for everybody including the coaching staff and um so I mean it was turnovers like turnovers are the biggest thing you guys know it's all about the ball like you get those presentations every week and um you know we just couldn't hold on to it and that was like the biggest issue and then we lose JJ and you know which and yeah well we lose JJ first we kind of go on a oh oh yeah my fault my fault I'm just thinking McCarthy it's been a long day yeah yeah you got see2 on your yeah we lose Jets we lose Jets first and with a you know a hand string and um then we start going on a run and it's like okay like we're we're good like let's get back and you know when Jets comes we'll go off and we'll start playing in the in the in the playoffs and and we'll have a successful year and so you know we start on a run and then you know obviously Green Bay happens and we're playing really well and we're up by quite a bit and you know we come out of half and we have a full swing full two touchdown swing and that was um huge for us and then Kirk goes down in the last you know couple drives and it's like what the heck just happened you know like cuz nobody knows you know you don't know and he's over there like I just rolled my ankle I just rolled my ankle and your Achilles is gone yeah and then he gets carded off and you're like oh man yeah like what's going on you know and you get in the locker room and we won the game but it's kind of like a somber feeling cuz you you lost Kirk who again like I've talked about Kirk he's one of the best dudes and so you don't want to see that from him um but yeah and then the next week dos comes in and then the next week yeah we're in um we're in Atlanta and and dobs comes in and you know we're we're going through the whole quarterback thing um you know we have you know you you start one guy and then he gets injured with a with a concussion and then you know dos is up basically and you're like okay like let's let's let's see what it is you know that crazy he he got in what Tuesday Wednesday yeah and he doesn't know the offense so he's like just repeating what he's hearing but he doesn't know and he's like hey what's my first read and you're like to the left I was say how's the game plan changing in real time to like corral around him and help him out that's kind of what it was you know we were all in the Huddle and we're kind of like just communicating to him as well as he him communicating to us like hey like cuz he was like hey what's a like what's this mean like what's this uh route called like or what's my concept you know we have fun you know flag under and so it's like um you know that's what that means you know like this is your first read this is your second read and um so he he he was balling that week and he used his legs a lot and we were able to do like a scramble drill kind of and you know that's I I hadn't really had that from any of my quarterbacks and so um to have him out there and he was you know that was that was kind of fun cuz you you guys just playing like some backyard ball yard it's exactly what it was Zero expectation too like everyone expecting you guys not we got nothing to lose and he he does a game-winning drive on the last last Drive nuts which was huge you know and then we come out the next week and I actually broke my rib in the Atlanta game um fractured my two ribs in my on my right side I still got a that nice little bump and then the next week is the Saints and you play yeah yeah went off I had like I see you Beast well I had uh the 135 in the first half with with DOs playing and that was that was sick you know we had a lot of fun we came out hot and then does as as I'm sorry to cut you off when dos comes in and you know he's obviously going to take over uh the next week does the game plan is it all about like simplifying make it easy for him to pick up on and for sure for sure yeah I mean like just our you know C you know you have your first day first five day camp in Stall plays like that's kind of what we were running um which were was easy for us and he was in the he was he was like I was when I first got traded you know he was like not e eating with the guys he was in the in the he would go grab his food and then go to the film room and and like kind of learn everything and then a lot of communication a lot of like talking to the guys and and figuring it out but um yeah I mean he was he was incredible um I mean I love playing with Josh he's a great dude and he's special I mean with his legs and everything he's he's a special talent for sure so I mean yeah for anybody coming in week up especially at the quarterback position slinging a little bit game-winning Drive I just imagine all the guys in the Huddle and then Do's getting the call and he's just repeating it and all the guys are like this is what I have this is what I have like across the board this is the protection exactly [ __ ] it I got half that we're going to figure out what goes on now it's basically hey we're just running a boot here boot to the right yeah boot to the right look for us and then Garrett our Center you know he would he was like at the point where you know cuz a lot of the time the quarterback will change or like tell you to to it and and stuff like that for The Tackle and Garrett's out there like hey TI Tio you know like calling all that stuff taking it off his plate having a smart Center is the biggest one of the biggest assets you can possibly have our whole line is Ben was like a quarterback out there Ben some yeah a lot of guy a lot of times tanhill would even we well tanhill would be great but anybody else who was ever in there Ben would be like I'll just I'll do the protection yeah and then that's one thing the quack doesn't have to listen to at all yeah he just kind of wait for Ben help point one way like I guess we're going this way yeah but Ben would also manipulate [ __ ] too we'd be like we were playing Houston one time and it was like 4214 and JJ is at the nose and then goes [ __ ] it R puts me oneon-one and then everybody else is in a full slow down B right r r sorry Taylor yeah like Jesus Christ yeah but it's a bit of a deal dude they always have the best haircuts why because they go to Sport Clips dude gentleman get ready because this month Sport Clips haircuts is taking their MVP haircut experience to the ultim level throughout the month of July you get to relax twice and pay once because ultimate MVP is the same price as the standard MVP also just in time to beat the heat not necessarily because it's

brain was kind of getting foggy there for a second don't do the last don't do the last he just got the mouse going across oh there it is don't know why we have that photo up oh I love it that's awesome should we have some uh do we have anything else to hit should we have a couple fun little segments let's do some segments shout out no free shout out yeah let me pee first let me PE yeah yeah go pee go pee go pee oh I'm in on that you trying to go pee yeah I've been go pee man I've been doing it for a while and it'll make you feel better I don't know if you're like me my b ass is sweating violently I've been over there like leaning over trying to no you can do yeah you can deviate it however so if you feel a blitz coming you can either slide if you feel like you need to do a full slide and the back will block the one on the end but you'd want to slide it away from the back so that way he can pick up the end and I have to go across the protection go and I have to go across the formation yeah they put me on a few 508s this year it's tough yeah that Jordan Addison one when uh like right before half on the 49ers yeah yeah they put me oneon-one with Bosa 59 protection how was that a Die slow death we scored a touchdown so you handled him I mean yeah you N I did my job you wi in nine times out of 10 on Nick Bosa don't do that to me don't do that to me I feel like tight ends they do get a uh they they do get a reputation of if you're one-on-one if you're a pass rusher if you're one-onone with the tight end you must win basically time you have to win every single time yeah it doesn't always happen but do you pride yourself on the blocking I do I do all right yeah I do my best I can never ask for yeah I got a couple fun question get the job done right couple fun questions before we get into our segments number one prediction for Vikings Prediction For Next Season Minnesota in 2024 oh like a record prediction yeah let's hear it oh man um I don't know how many 17 um 17 or now that's the only right answer that is the only right answer also which my second question which quarterback Che your ass the most oh I got a couple I I got a couple lickings from um staff really yeah that's that would have been my guess but I I but like that was the best thing for me you productive fings yeah like it was it was great and I was a rookie and so like I was I didn't really know like what was going on so to have that and like you know how he like well maybe you don't but like staff is like one of those people that like doesn't really like he's not a loud talker he's softspoken like and he's just a boy like he's one of the boys so he wants to get close to you like I went out to with to dinner with staff and his wife and you know a few times and then like on Sundays like if I screwed something up he'd get in into me and that that's like it's a good feeling you know like I mean not that you remember what's one that like sits there and you're like hey staff remember that one time when you ripped my ass um yeah I actually caught a touchdown and he ripped me but it was it was my fault 100% like we were uh I can't remember who we were playing but we were on like the three yard line and there was this play that he would check to um but the whole line would slide left and we'd leave the DN free um and because a lot of the time like the DN would have to carry the the flat and then they would screw up so it was like a three-man set over on the right and he checked to it and like I was supposed to Bluff the end to like make him think I was rushing rather than pulling me to the flat but I just kind of went to the flat and then that leaves him a free runner you know rather than the D end so he he was he like turned around and he saw the defensive end coming he sidearms it score a touchdown and I was like let's go oh and then I just see staff shaking his head running to the sideline and then when I get to the sideline he just gives it he lays it into me but I needed it like I was I think that might have been my first or second year and it was like you know you got to know that stuff so was like the little details you know but like so I appreciated it so like I there was never anything where like I've never gotten an ass shooting where I'm like I didn't deserve it you know like so I I kind of respect it and was like all right cool my bad like I I'll get it next time you gota you got to respect that you scor touch SC touchdown like hey it's not good enough this is not good enough it's not about the result yeah no you gotta love

there's a t there's a tattoo gun that they're all sharing the same needle and tattooing each other different things but that's not why I'm shouting them out everybody knows like when you and your boys

you and it's like bro come on it's not the you just know you got to put this guy to bed soon what I Witness at this wedding as the sun was setting at 11:00 p.m. in Canada all these guys were equally that drunk just loving each other no one was the hey man we don't got to do this right now it was around a bonfire and these boys sat there and told each other how much they loved each other there were songs playing they're singing as loud as they can they don't there's there's 50 people sitting around but to those six seven boys it was just them and I sat back in a chair and just watched them

this has been a great appreciate you guys appreciate it this one comes from JP um JP this comes from JP Hy would you rather be an unknown superhero or a famous villain oh that's uh unknown superhero that's easy yeah unknown superhero for sure I don't know if it's easy I think you all flirt with the idea of like you you could be a badass villain yeah that's known and you're just you're calling your own shots it's like the joke I'm pretty lowkey though I'd rather just I don't need to be famous yeah I'm just thinking of my brain like when you get those RPG games and you get to either go villain or good guy you start off thinking about the idea of being a villain and it's a video game so nobody's gonna know right but you ultimately end up making the good decisions just to get back in good favor with the crowd and the town and everything else so I'm gonna go with unknown hero that's a good one I'm gonna go villain 100% dude just being like and the first person that always comes to mind is the Joker from Dark Knight and that is all time just calling your shots doing what you want everyone knows you don't know what his moves are because [ __ ] wild if you're a super famous villain you know you're known for being just multiple steps ahead of the government and that's badass and that's badass I'll take that I'll take the villain I love it good question that is a great question good question would you go with you go hero I would go unknown hero for sure yeah I mean be on a be on a bunch of land just be able to freaking do whatever you want should be Clark K oh so sick yeah yeah wear some wear some glasses nobody knows who you are be so sick have superpowers yes You' have superpowers you could be superhero or unknown hero superhero superer change the game a little bit Yeah but nobody oh so you couldn't go play a sport right I mean you could Superman and you're like I don't really feel like protecting people I'm just going to go be the best football player ever never get hurt yeah in Smallville which is based around uh Superman he was a very good high school football player did just enough I remember one time he was throwing the ball and right when he released it he ran somewhere saved somebody stopped something from happening and got back in just to get hit and throw the game-winning touchdown B on true yeah yeah what you tell me Superman didn't make the league I'm just saying in Smallville in this show which was a phenomenal show and Shout out my boy Logan that we watch this every week this was one of our soap operas every week all
