00:00:02.959 --> 00:00:04.320
Would you like to spit on him?
00:00:04.719 --> 00:00:05.759
Or whatever you want to do.
00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:06.480
You could rip it.
00:00:07.040 --> 00:00:07.440
You could yeah.
00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:08.560
Okay.

Let's get him! Let's get him.

That's cardstock, baby.

Come on.
00:00:13.839 --> 00:00:14.240
Come on.
00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:15.919
How many more times?
00:00:18.239 --> 00:00:19.039
Are you just gonna hand it to me?
00:00:19.120 --> 00:00:19.760
I don't wanna touch him.
00:00:19.920 --> 00:00:21.519
Yeah, I don't wanna touch his fucking face.
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:24.160
Unfortunately, you saying that will not stop him from touching you.
00:00:24.559 --> 00:00:25.920
Oh god, you know what?
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:29.199
And just when I thought that's disgusting.
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:31.039
Yeah.
00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:52.560
Welcome to Tailgate Therapy.
00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:54.000
This is the Tailgate Therapy podcast.
00:00:54.159 --> 00:00:55.200
It's the very first episode.
00:00:55.359 --> 00:00:56.799
And oh, I didn't know the first one.
00:00:57.039 --> 00:00:57.520
It's the first one.
00:00:57.759 --> 00:00:58.159
I'm honored.
00:00:58.399 --> 00:00:59.840
You should be honored, Danny.
00:00:59.920 --> 00:01:00.880
Um I'm excited.
00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:11.200
Basically, Tailgate Therapy is a pod where I talk to diehard fans of uh, let's say cursed teams.
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:19.280
Cursed teams, cursed franchises, sad teams, teams that are always down bad, can't seem to get up, but the fans come back season after season.
00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:19.920
Of course.
00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:22.480
And um and I wanted to know why.
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:27.040
Uh, because I happen to uh well, uh most of my team uh are winners.
00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:27.680
Cool.
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:29.040
Uh so cool.
00:01:29.359 --> 00:01:30.959
It's not my fault, it's what I was born into.
00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:32.000
I was born into greatness.
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:32.959
Um I went to Alabama.
00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:33.920
Who were your teams?
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:34.640
Alabama.
00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:35.120
Sure.
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:36.560
First of all, roll tide.
00:01:36.879 --> 00:01:37.120
Sorry.
00:01:37.359 --> 00:01:39.200
And uh then I'm a Chiefs fan.
00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:40.000
Which we were bad.
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:40.319
We were bad.
00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:40.799
We sucked.
00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:42.319
I was gonna say you guys were bad for forever.
00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:44.480
We were bad, but we did make but we have made us the promise.
00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:45.120
You made the jump.
00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:47.840
You didn't jump now to to dynasty.
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:51.840
To to to dynasty, and are we gonna catch are we gonna catch Tom Brady?
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:52.560
Yes.
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:54.480
Yeah, I I I don't think you will.
00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:57.840
I think I think it's I don't think you guys are a championship anymore.
00:01:57.920 --> 00:01:59.519
I think you're gonna be a great team for years.
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:02.400
Just I think Mahomes touches the field your playoffs every year.
00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:03.040
Yeah, sure.
00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:06.799
But I don't think you're championship anymore, or at least easily.
00:02:07.040 --> 00:02:09.039
Okay, well, this is coming from a commanders fan.
00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:09.840
Hold on, hold on.
00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:14.960
Danny, before you start to talk about before you start to talk about my Chiefs, we gotta I gotta introduce you, okay?
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:16.479
We haven't even introduced, we've been talking.
00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:18.319
This is with this is day one of the pod.
00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:19.840
They were like, Who are you, Sophie?
00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:20.479
Who is talking?
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:21.520
Who's this other person talking?
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:22.400
I'm ruining it.
00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:23.680
Yeah, no, no, no, no.
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:24.159
This is good.
00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:25.120
I like, I like this.
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:32.400
Um, I like that you're already I love that a Commanders fan has uh has uh the balls to shit on the Chiefs.
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:34.479
But anyway, um I think very fair.
00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:37.360
Basically, basically, that is the pod.
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:44.479
Um, and I was like, okay, I'm not as experienced in losing, at least as of late.
00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:53.599
Therefore, I wanted to talk to people who are, because I I am curious because sports is about greatness, it's about getting over getting to the promised land.
00:02:53.680 --> 00:03:01.199
It's like every year you are striving for it, and and a lot of times it happens, but also a lot of times it doesn't.
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:03.599
For 31 out of 32 teams, it doesn't.
00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:05.759
It doesn't, and it just keeps on happening.
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:08.960
And um, a perfect example is the Washington Commanders.
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:14.560
Um, and today my very first guest, I'm very honored, uh, is well, you he's a very funny guy.
00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:21.039
He also has a special called You Choose, an interactive comedy special on YouTube, which is also with Don't Till Comedy.
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:29.039
Um, but uh less exciting, at least uh from my point of view, is he's a Washington Commanders fan and just a DC sports fan in general.
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:29.439
Yep.
00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:30.879
Um but I have to respect it.
00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:34.639
Um so welcome to the podcast, Danny Joels.
00:03:35.039 --> 00:03:35.520
Joles.
00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:36.479
Oh, did I fuck up?
00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:37.759
It's there's no fucking up.
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:42.000
It's it's legally legally tell me it's jail, like I don't have a job.
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:42.800
Oh, god damn it.
00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:48.639
But I but I I don't know if I've uh the unless I get a hold of somebody ahead of time, uh it's always said.
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:50.479
I had one job you know, I had one job.
00:03:50.639 --> 00:04:03.039
No, but it it's I've you when you do stand up as often as I do, which is almost every night of my life, sure, you get very used to like I can't get to the host every night.
00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:05.840
So it's like also and also you're probably and you're also tired.
00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:07.360
You're like, I don't I don't want to get it.
00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:09.599
Who gives a shit?
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:16.720
Like the people in the crowd who know me are gonna know who I am, and the the people who know me and people who don't are gonna go, whatever.
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:17.680
Yeah, I don't know.
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:18.319
I don't care.
00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:19.600
Well it's you said it beautifully.
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:20.319
All right, well, thank you.
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:21.600
Joel's is classic.
00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:23.360
It's are and have you gotten that one?
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:26.639
A thousand Joels, Jollies, Hoyas are sort of the big three.
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:27.279
Hoyas?
00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:31.519
And every now and then somebody really goes for Yeah, you can't tell with me a little bit.
00:04:31.920 --> 00:04:32.480
Okay, okay.
00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:35.839
Are you are you well you would you say you're ethnically ambiguous?
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:37.120
I am ethnically ambiguous.
00:04:37.360 --> 00:04:38.319
What's your ethnicity?
00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:48.000
I am just a boring Jew, but I I was I I am when I when we first came to L when I first came to LA and that was that was like a thing.
00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:50.399
I was absolutely ethnically ambiguous.
00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:50.800
Yeah, yeah.
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:52.720
So I would go in for I could go in for any.
00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:54.000
I can really do anything.
00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:55.759
From one ethnically ambiguous person to another.
00:04:56.079 --> 00:04:56.399
Yeah, yeah.
00:04:56.480 --> 00:04:58.879
It's like no one really knows what I am to this day.
00:04:59.199 --> 00:04:59.759
Keep it that way.
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:01.759
Unless you listen to me talk.
00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:03.600
Yeah, but I'm just you know, get those roles.
00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:04.000
You know what I mean?
00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:04.319
Yeah.
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:04.800
Come on.
00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:05.759
Well, now I can't.
00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:06.879
Oh well, yeah, that's right.
00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:08.000
Ten years ago you could.
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:09.920
So that's my I can't tell what's happening now.
00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:12.000
Yeah, we honestly keep swinging.
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:13.120
We seem to be regressing.
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:13.680
Go on.
00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:18.000
Okay, well, uh welcome to my podcast.
00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:22.720
Uh speaking of ethnic ethnic debates, this is a good, this is a doozy man.
00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:31.680
This is I had a lot of fun looking up uh the commanders because again, we were talking as you walked up and you're like, you you maybe I said this that you're forgotten, you're forgotten group.
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:35.439
We're yeah, oh I I well I said we're a qu we're a quiet fan base.
00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:36.480
Quiet fan base.
00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:38.480
We we aren't loud.
00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:43.839
We're not particularly uh we we're not a talk shitty group.
00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:47.759
So as a result, I think a lot of people don't realize how tough it's been.
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:49.360
Um It's been really tough.
00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:50.240
It's been horrible.
00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:53.199
It's been a very tough ex existence as a Commanders fan.
00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:55.600
Yeah, um I'd like to tell you how bad it's been.
00:05:56.000 --> 00:05:56.399
Yeah, please.
00:05:56.480 --> 00:05:57.279
Um please let me know.
00:05:57.759 --> 00:06:00.319
Are you I and not that you don't know all these things.
00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:01.680
Uh well, how diehard are you?
00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:03.759
Would you say you very, very diehard.
00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:04.079
Okay.
00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:05.519
Extremely extremely diehard.
00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:05.759
Yes.
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:07.600
Um okay, I want to- I'm not fucking around.
00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:09.040
I I I love this team.
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:10.319
I I live and die.
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:11.199
I live on the Reddit.
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:13.519
I thought you were saying I live on the red.
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:15.120
And I was like, oh, is that like a phrase?
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:16.079
Burgundy.
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:22.800
That's a that's a good way to know if somebody's a commander's fan out of the gates is if they say, if they say, Yeah, you know, when we wear red on it's it's burgundy and gold.
00:06:22.879 --> 00:06:23.519
Yeah, well that's how it is.
00:06:23.759 --> 00:06:25.279
That's like an immediate, like, okay.
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:25.839
Yeah, get it.
00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:27.120
Yeah, you don't know what you're talking about.
00:06:27.199 --> 00:06:27.680
Get out of here.
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:29.439
Yeah, that's how it is with Alabama, it's crimson.
00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:29.920
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:31.040
I bleed crimson.
00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:32.240
Those little things really help?
00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:35.680
Because like you gotta suss out when someone's trying to like bullshit you.
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:35.920
Yeah.
00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:40.000
And that's a good way to know, is if somebody throws uh uh, you know, red and gold.
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:40.959
Your colors are red.
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:42.000
I'm like, no.
00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:47.600

00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:26.000
He is the he's the great hope for you guys.
00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:30.720
But but let's before we go into hope, I want to talk about um I want to welcome to um exposure therapy.
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:32.079
Do you know what exposure therapy is?
00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:33.920
Uh I believe we relive past trauma.
00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:34.959
Is that is that what exposure therapy is?
00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:35.439
Yeah, yeah.
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:36.480
So uh that's good.
00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:40.959
I have uh I pr actually have OCD and I've had to go to I've had to go through exposure.
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:46.480
So for example, like I was really scared of like my mom dying when I was a kid.
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:46.879
Sure.
00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:48.800
So my exposure would have a fair one.
00:07:48.959 --> 00:07:49.439
Yeah, right?
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:51.439
That's not unheard of.
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:52.560
That's what I'm saying.
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:56.399
I don't know if I would get into therapy and stuff.
00:07:56.639 --> 00:08:00.160
But like that seems crazy to be like, this child's really afraid of their mom dying.
00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:01.439
It's like, well, I think we all are actually.
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:02.399
I don't know if that's a disease.
00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:04.079
It was more of just like the thought loops.
00:08:04.160 --> 00:08:06.800
It was more of like not being able to leave the house because I'm locking the doors all the time.
00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:11.920
Because if I lock this door and I and I uh enough times mom will make it home.
00:08:12.160 --> 00:08:13.759
So you were showing like you were showing ticks and stuff.
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:14.639
Yeah, I was showing ticks.
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:18.079
I mean, I check real quick, since this is a therapy podcast too.
00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:24.959
I was I was marking off like you have to take like a like a quiz or questionnaire of like what types of OCD you have.
00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:27.920
And there was like maybe 50 questions.
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:28.879
Had all of them.
00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:29.439
Oof.
00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:30.480
Every single one.
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:33.039
Anyway, point is that's where I got this.
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:34.720
And this is exposure therapy.
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:45.919
Um and it's it's supposed to help you when you're exposed to something that you're scared of, it helps you feel less fearful and and and it feels like uh oh, it's actually not that scary, and and I can make it, right?
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:46.320
Yeah, yeah.
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:52.320
Um, but uh I I wanna because acceptance uh is the first step to healing.
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:52.799
Sure.
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:53.840
And that's why I'm here, really.
00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:54.639
Sure.
00:08:54.960 --> 00:08:56.639
I'm not here to roast you, I'm here to be your friend.
00:08:56.720 --> 00:08:57.039
I appreciate it.
00:08:57.200 --> 00:08:57.840
I'm here to be your therapist.
00:08:58.000 --> 00:08:58.559
That's what everybody says.
00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:03.600
Um okay, so I want to break down the Washington Commanders' sordid history, process the facts.
00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:05.279
I ask that you don't speak.
00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:08.000
I just w I just want you to feel it.
00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:10.159
Okay, he actually set down the mic.
00:09:10.320 --> 00:09:11.200
Um Wow, really.
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:12.639
You're a really good first guest.
00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:13.039
Okay.
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:15.600
The original team name was the Redskins.
00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:19.440
The team was named after the first coach.
00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:26.240
Uh William Lone Star Dietz, a man who falsely claimed to be Native American to avoid the draft in World War I.
00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:29.679
Tokenism, cultural appropriation, and cowardice.
00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:31.919
And that you can put the mic up.
00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:32.320
It's okay.
00:09:32.399 --> 00:09:33.519
It's who you can I I want to hear.
00:09:34.240 --> 00:09:34.480
Classic.
00:09:34.639 --> 00:09:35.120
Okay, great.
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:37.759
I'm closing my eyes though, so at least I'm like, Yeah, take it in.
00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:38.399
I want you explaining.
00:09:38.559 --> 00:09:40.559
This at least I didn't live through, minus the name.
00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:43.600
But your family probably did, because I want to get into your your family and how all that happened.
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:52.639
So in the 1940 NFL championship game, and just for you for people to all the sports guys that are gonna come after us, know the NFL wasn't the NFL yet.
00:09:52.720 --> 00:10:00.000
We hadn't combined with the AFL, but it was called the NFL Championship Game, and the Bears beat the shit out of you, 73 to 0.
00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:02.399
The worst lopsided game in NFL history to this day.
00:10:02.639 --> 00:10:02.960
Cool.
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:04.559
From 19 Did you know that?
00:10:04.799 --> 00:10:05.120
No.
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:07.840
I'm telling new things from 1946.
00:10:08.159 --> 00:10:09.360
I don't know my 40s history.
00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:10.240
I mean, I know some of it.
00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:10.639
Okay.
00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:21.039
I have a I have a my father-in-law got me a really awesome book a couple years ago that has every article from the New York Times about the commanders throughout history.
00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:24.960
So you can go through it and it's every time, every Sunday, like whatever article was about it.
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:26.080
Oh, I I've seen these.
00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:26.559
It's awesome.
00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:29.200
Everyone's getting them, everyone's getting them for their boyfriends.
00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:30.720
Great gift for my father-in-law.
00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:31.679
Yeah, it's a father-in-law.
00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:33.120
My wife did not get it from me.
00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:33.440
Oh, well.
00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:35.120
But her dad, kind.
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:35.840
Go on.
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:36.720
Yeah, no, it's a good one.
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:37.600
Shout out Ken.
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:38.720
Because he got it on Facebook.
00:10:38.799 --> 00:10:39.919
I'm seeing it all over the place, too.
00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:40.720
It's a great gift.
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:42.879
Uh, okay, so what else we got?
00:10:42.960 --> 00:10:49.679
All right, in from 1946 to 1970, 70, the Redskins had only four winning seasons in 25 years.
00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:55.360
The Redskins had one of the most racist owners in NFL history, and I'm not even talking about Dan Snyder yet.
00:10:55.679 --> 00:10:57.519
Said owner George Preston Marshall.
00:10:58.159 --> 00:10:59.519
That just sounds like a racist name.
00:10:59.679 --> 00:11:00.240
It's so old.
00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:04.559
Uh, refused to integrate the team until he was literally forced to by the federal government.
00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:06.639
JFK had to get involved, guys.
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:07.519
This is like for real.
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:10.159
JFK himself, no, but his administration, yes.
00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:13.279
Uh, Your Honor, I would say every team wasn't great at the time.
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:13.759
Go on.
00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:14.799
But they were the last.
00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:15.279
Okay.
00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:15.919
They were the last.
00:11:16.399 --> 00:11:17.279
What a day.
00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:22.000
I don't know if everybody else was being models behavior the time either.
00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:24.240
It was so bad that the I this is true.
00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:29.840
It was so bad that the federal government had to intervene because you guys were playing at a federally owned stadium.
00:11:29.919 --> 00:11:31.200
And they're like, we can't.
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:32.000
That's true, right?
00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:33.919
Uh anything in DC is federally owned.
00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:36.240
I'm sit that's I know I'm spitting facts.
00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:36.639
Okay.
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:44.159
Then the Redskins selected their and by the way, I'm sorry I keep saying Redskins, but I I I want to make sure welcome to my hell.
00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:46.240
Welcome to my hell up.
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:47.039
What do I say?
00:11:47.360 --> 00:11:51.759
Every time you have to say every time you have to say your team name, you still have to say a slur.
00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:57.600
Okay, the Redskins selected their first black player, halfback, and Heisman Trophy winner Ernie Davis has the first overall pick.
00:11:57.679 --> 00:12:03.679
So you were up, but then Davis had no interest in playing for a racist team and demanded a trade immediately.
00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:07.919
And then not only that, he died a year later from cancer without playing a single game in the NFL.
00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:09.120
Okay, well it wasn't our fault.
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:10.879
We traded him, so that's good.
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:11.519
Go on.
00:12:12.320 --> 00:12:13.759
Well, you're not gonna like this either.
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:16.960
The Vince Lombardi was hired in 1969 to coach.
00:12:17.200 --> 00:12:18.159
That's right, little known fact.
00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:21.200
And lead Washington to the first winning season since 1955.
00:12:21.759 --> 00:12:24.080
Things were looking up until he died after one season.
00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:24.960
Yep.
00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:25.759
That's right.
00:12:26.080 --> 00:12:27.360
We're not even out of the 60s.
00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:30.000
But we do have Lombardi, but we do have Lombardi as a former coach.
00:12:30.080 --> 00:12:30.399
That's exciting.
00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:31.519
That is exciting.
00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:31.840
Yeah, yeah.
00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:32.480
It is exciting.
00:12:32.559 --> 00:12:33.279
He just he's happened.
00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:35.919
He was so depressed that he he died.
00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:36.639
Sure.
00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:39.279
You had a good so you had a good run in the 80s.
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:39.759
This is true.
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:42.240
Um you had a legendary coach, coach Joe Gibbs.
00:12:42.399 --> 00:12:45.039
I don't want to say like, I don't want to not bring that up.
00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:48.080
You won three Super Bowls out of the four appearances under him.
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:49.360
Uh but you've been five, right?
00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:50.399
Five times.
00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:54.000
Uh we've won four, I want to say.
00:12:54.240 --> 00:12:54.879
Okay, and then five.
00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:55.679
I've been five, yeah.
00:12:55.759 --> 00:12:56.399
I think we lost one.
00:12:56.639 --> 00:12:58.799
So that's amazing if you're content with living in the past.
00:12:59.039 --> 00:12:59.440
Of course.
00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:01.519
It's definitely giving I was great in high school vibes.
00:13:01.919 --> 00:13:07.679
Well, and I and let me tell you, I wish it was in high school, but unfortunately I was a babe, so I've never actually lived through any of these joys.
00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:08.320
Right, right.
00:13:08.399 --> 00:13:09.120
We're gonna get to that.
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:11.200
So, not even high school.
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:14.399
Didn't get to experience my dad tells me tales of these days.
00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:17.200
I love your dad telling you a tale.
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:20.000
God, and it makes it see that's the kind of shit that I love.
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:21.759
Oh, we gotta Okay, we're gonna get into that too.
00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:27.360
I used to watch on a VHS tape the Super Bowl that we came back against the Dolphins and Doug Williams through like a million touchdowns.
00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:28.720
And but you didn't get to experience it.
00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:29.600
You were watching a VHS tape.
00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:30.240
I was a baby.
00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:31.759
This was at the time.
00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:32.799
I don't even know if I was a baby.
00:13:32.960 --> 00:13:36.879
Were you watching it as a baby, or were we at least watching it as like someone who could have cognitive function?
00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:40.399
I would watch it later as a cognitive, but when it happened, I were a literal baby.
00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:41.279
I was a little bit.
00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:42.639
I did not l experience this.
00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:43.679
Yeah, that sucks.
00:13:43.759 --> 00:13:44.720
I mean, that's really dark.
00:13:44.879 --> 00:13:47.360
Um my only memories of this team is sad.
00:13:47.679 --> 00:13:48.159
Go on.
00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:52.000
Well, where there are peaks, there are even deeper valleys, the Dan Snyder area era.
00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:52.559
Sure.
00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:55.360
Daniel Snyder owned the team from 99 until 2023.
00:13:55.440 --> 00:13:58.080
He is considered to be one of the worst owners ever in all of sports.
00:13:58.480 --> 00:13:59.360
Not considered the.
00:13:59.919 --> 00:14:00.960
He is absolutely the.
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:01.360
Okay.
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:02.159
No c no question.
00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:03.039
No question.
00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:06.159
It's so funny because there are so many bad ones like Spano family and stuff like that.
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:06.960
Nobody touches him.
00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:08.080
Nobody will ever touch him.
00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:09.200
Well, I've got some highlights.
00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:14.559
So a lawsuit involving sexual harassment, bullying, intimidation, hiding that's just one.
00:14:14.639 --> 00:14:17.919
Yep, hiding tens of millions of dollars in ticket revenue meant to be shared with the league.
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:18.399
Yep.
00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:20.559
The only thing that actually made them get him out.
00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:21.840
Which is crazy.
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:22.960
Which is crazy.
00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:26.240
Because he charged fans money to attend training camp practices.
00:14:26.320 --> 00:14:26.559
Yep.
00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:30.000
He renamed this this actually this this makes me mad.
00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:31.200
All of this makes me mad.
00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:35.039
But I think at this point when it comes to billionaires, I'm like, I'm gonna open my eyes now.
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:36.080
Uh oh, right.
00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:36.399
Yeah, yeah.
00:14:36.559 --> 00:14:38.480
I've been eyes closed the whole time, but it's gonna take too long.
00:14:38.559 --> 00:14:40.720
Yeah, if we're getting into Dan Snyder, I gotta I gotta lock him.
00:14:40.879 --> 00:14:41.519
Yeah, I need you to lock.
00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:44.639
Well, okay, he has all this is bad.
00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:49.120
And like, again, we deal with billion billionaires, I assume I'm like, yeah, they're gonna have sexual harassment bullying.
00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:50.080
Nobody touches him.
00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:58.320
But this thing, he renamed the field from Jack Kent Cook Stadium to FedEx Field, dishonoring the former owner Jack Kent Cook, months after he bought the team.
00:14:58.720 --> 00:14:59.200
Did you know that?
00:14:59.519 --> 00:15:00.320
Uh yeah, yeah.
00:15:00.639 --> 00:15:04.080
Or I mean, I'm sure you're like, well, it tracks, but Yeah, it's so it's funny.
00:15:04.159 --> 00:15:10.799
The thing about Dan Snyder is that's the kind of thing that I hear and I go, ha ha a baby.
00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:13.279
A baby step of evil from that man.
00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:13.600
Right.
00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:16.799
That's that's cute that that even made the list.
00:15:17.360 --> 00:15:21.919
If you think that's bad, wait till you start climbing down the list of Dan Snyder events.
00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:23.919
Okay, I want you on a couple.
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:48.480
Uh uh making uh uh charging people to go to the um swimsuits uh shoots for the cheerleaders, forcing the cheerleaders to have to change in front of people, sexual harassment in the office that was covered up about 17 different times, uh incidents on planes, let's not forget, of course, taking down John Gruden in their investigation of him.
00:15:48.639 --> 00:16:05.679
That's the whole reason John Gruden got taken out because of how shitty he is, refused to sell the team, saying he would never change change the team name uh and then being forced against his will, being forced to sell the team because he was such an evil man, breaking our entire stadium, shit coming out of the pipes because of him, literally shit coming out of the pipes by the end of his experience.
00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:08.000
Because he just wasn't like keeping it up to code.
00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:14.480
Yeah, he wouldn't upkeep it and nobody would do business with him because he was such a dirty little scoundrel that uh no state would work with him.
00:16:14.639 --> 00:16:23.039
So we were stuck in our old stadium because DC, Maryland, Virginia all said because remember, there's three different places that we can do business, because we represent the whole DMV.
00:16:23.200 --> 00:16:30.159
All three states were like, we will not give you a dollar because you are not trustworthy, and we were not able to get a new stadium.
00:16:30.240 --> 00:16:38.399
So shit was coming out of pipes at Northwest Stadium that we are still stuck in because we're trying to now build one now that we have a new owner.
00:16:39.279 --> 00:16:39.840
Which we like.
00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:41.759
We we we like.
00:16:41.919 --> 00:16:47.840
I mean, the lowest bar in the history of civilization was handed to Josh Harris.
00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:59.519
And so Josh Harris is he the is it's like he's been caught up in some stuff lately, but it's like he's a he's a an angel in comparison.
00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:07.119
So truly, like I truly believe uh Dan Snyder is the worst person on earth, and the only thing I I And he's not in prison.
00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:09.039
He's not in prison, he lives on a yacht.
00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:12.160
Uh you can follow uh Dan Snyder yacht tracker on Twitter.
00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:14.000
Like Santa Nora.
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:19.119
Yeah, like he he lives on a yacht because he because if he ever comes back to DC, I think he'll get killed.
00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:24.720
Um he probably can't step anywhere just any because he has such a distinguishable face, too.
00:17:25.119 --> 00:17:30.799
I say this as a person who has a career I really love and care about and a life that I really love.
00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:31.039
Yeah.
00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:34.720
If Dan Snyder walked in here, I would punch him.
00:17:35.039 --> 00:17:36.720
And I would take whatever consequences.
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:38.079
That's actually not that bad, but yeah.
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:40.960
Yeah, but but I thought you were gonna say something like No, just punch.
00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:41.440
No, no, no.
00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:42.799
I just would want to physically hurt him.
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:44.799
But I believe it would be good for the good of humanity.
00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:50.640
Yeah, no, I mean that's well, hey, and I you didn't mention this, but this is now this doesn't even hold a candle too.
00:17:50.799 --> 00:17:51.200
That's what I'm saying.
00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:52.079
Nothing holds a candle to it.
00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:55.279
He says billing the team ten million dollars a year to use his airplane, that's that's boring.
00:17:55.359 --> 00:17:55.680
Yeah, yeah.
00:17:55.680 --> 00:17:56.480
I mean, that doesn't even make it.
00:17:56.880 --> 00:17:59.440
Well, but but that's like but that's also like the little shit.
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:01.440
He was the worst.
00:18:01.599 --> 00:18:02.960
He is a bad human.
00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:13.920
And he had, and what makes me mad when you have owners like this, and this is how I feel about the Clippers situation, is like, then the which is not I know it's not as bad.
00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:14.319
Yeah, it's a good thing.
00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:15.519
I know it's not I know it's not as bad.
00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:17.839
I'm not as bad.
00:18:17.920 --> 00:18:19.759
I I mean, sorry, I'm not I'm not as bad.
00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:20.559
Well, you're not as bad.
00:18:20.640 --> 00:18:21.119
I'm not as bad.
00:18:21.440 --> 00:18:22.079
You've done nothing like that.
00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:26.640
Hey, congratulations on not charging people to watch women change.
00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:28.079
Yeah, I yeah, I have not done that.
00:18:28.160 --> 00:18:29.920
Umgrats on clearing that part.
00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:50.880
I uh what I uh what what makes me mad about when you have really bad owners like the commander's owner, and and I just bring up the clippers because it's just on the it's on the mind right now, is um the fans have to deal with the fallout, and the fans have to deal with them not with all their bad behavior and and the fact that they're not reimb the working on the stadium, that affects you.
00:18:51.039 --> 00:18:52.240
Ultimately affects the fans.
00:18:52.480 --> 00:19:11.200
Yes, it affects the players and it affects the staffs, but it's like this is you i it's the cornerstone of people's families cheering for a team like this, and then you have to be basically what are you like in shackles because of of of like an emperor, you know, of a tyrant.
00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:20.720
You're in an impossible place, and I think part of the reason why people don't realize how great a fan base we have is because for decades, particularly the last decade, we weren't coming out to games.
00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:22.960
And 'cause you were so mad at the time.
00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:24.319
We were trying not to support.
00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:29.599
We were like, we I was like, this is my team, I will always do for my team, but I don't want to give him a dollar.
00:19:29.759 --> 00:19:30.000
Right.
00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:35.440
I don't want him to be pro I want him to lose money on the commanders enough that he has to sell this team.
00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:37.759
What can we do to make him sell?
00:19:38.000 --> 00:19:42.880
So we but if you showed up to a stadium with a with a fuck Dan Snyder, they'd kick you out.
00:19:43.279 --> 00:19:43.519
Really?
00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:45.920
Oh, it was Who's kicking out?
00:19:46.000 --> 00:19:46.160
What?
00:19:46.240 --> 00:19:49.200
The security little goons! Yes, they were hard.
00:19:50.880 --> 00:19:58.640
We were battling this dude for decades, and so people don't realize what a fan base we have because people think, oh, it was like it, you know.
00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:00.000
But it it's all Snyder.
00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:02.160
I mean, he was he is the worst.
00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:06.319
I just I and it affected us as a base.
00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:14.079
And it's my favorite team, and for years I would just have to be like, we don't talk about him, and we just battle through it because they're my team.
00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:19.359
And I would watch him throw away incredible careers because of his incompetence and stupidity.
00:20:19.839 --> 00:20:22.480
That was actually something I was gonna bring up next, because the list is still going on.
00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:23.279
I'm sorry.
00:20:23.359 --> 00:20:25.920
Uh now I feel bad, but I have I have to keep going.
00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:29.200
Uh RG3, I think it's a great example.
00:20:29.759 --> 00:20:39.839
Throw away his entire Heisman winner uh 2012 uh pick, which feels actually what's crazy to me is like So that's when I was at Alabama, not to brag.
00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:46.000
Um but uh that's when I was but it feels like yesterday, even though I'm like, yo, that was 13 years ago.
00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:46.720
Oh I hear you.
00:20:46.880 --> 00:20:48.319
Because I'm like, oh, RG3 can come back.
00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:55.440
I still in my mind I'm always like RG3's gonna come back, and I forget that he's like a gro like he's like pushing 40 or is 40.
00:20:55.759 --> 00:20:57.440
Yeah, he's like my age.
00:20:57.920 --> 00:20:58.880
Doing TikToks, yeah.
00:20:59.039 --> 00:21:06.160
He's he basically I mean I know you know this, but just for the for for people who are listening to the pod, um, you know, he's he was an amazing player.
00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:10.319
He was drafted second overall pick, he won offensive rookie of the year the first his first year.
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:17.359
So actually kind of like a Jaden Daniels of of sorts or like uh CJ Stroud at his year, you know, that his one year.
00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:21.279
Um and uh and brought you guys to the first divisional title since 1999.
00:21:22.240 --> 00:21:24.480
But then he got injured in week 14.
00:21:25.039 --> 00:21:32.319
He wasn't cleared by his doctor, he played and ended up tearing his LCL, which I I feel like we don't hear about as much.
00:21:32.400 --> 00:21:40.319
We always hear ACL, we hear Achilles and all that, but and a loss, and now uh and that pretty much that that kind of ended it.
00:21:40.400 --> 00:21:43.839
Because when I looked, I was also looking at him coming back, then he injured himself again.
00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:50.640
I I I d I disagree with the story being told only a little because I think it lets I think it lets us off easy.
00:21:51.119 --> 00:21:59.519
Oh, uh I think that's I well, I'm gonna defend us a little, which was he hurt himself, but he was coming back and he was playing fine, and we had our first.
00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:01.839
Playoff game in centuries.
00:22:02.079 --> 00:22:04.400
Right, but of and of course they want to play and a big thing.
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:06.880
And they want to play, and so he played the whole game.
00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:08.960
But he wasn't he wasn't cleared by his doctor, right?
00:22:09.039 --> 00:22:09.519
When he was playing?
00:22:11.279 --> 00:22:12.880
He was cleared to play in that game.
00:22:13.039 --> 00:22:13.359
Okay.
00:22:13.519 --> 00:22:23.279
He got injured again during the game, and he wasn't cleared, and he went out there, and that's when he went from clearly hurt to and his legs snapped in half.
00:22:23.519 --> 00:22:23.680
Right.
00:22:23.920 --> 00:22:29.279
So that's really to me, and someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but to me it was he was cleared to play in that game, played the whole game.
00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:31.279
It happened in the fourth quarter with two minutes left.
00:22:31.519 --> 00:22:32.160
Were you guys winning?
00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:34.000
Or were it like a drive?
00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:36.400
We were within, yeah, we were within striking distance.
00:22:36.880 --> 00:22:38.319
We were within putt possible.
00:22:38.559 --> 00:22:40.240
I remember it was on his own goal line.
00:22:40.319 --> 00:22:43.440
I'll never I remember him crumbling to the ground and being like, that was it.
00:22:43.519 --> 00:22:44.960
We just killed our quarterback.
00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:45.680
We just killed him.
00:22:45.759 --> 00:22:46.880
We killed this young kid.
00:22:46.960 --> 00:22:53.119
And then he came back, and the thing was, he could have played well, but Dan Snyder didn't like him.
00:22:53.440 --> 00:23:10.559
Dan Snyder didn't like RG3, and so he pushed to have Kirk Cousins take over, started these rumors, and this is where, as a fan, like I feel a lot of guilt towards RG3 because I didn't realize quite how manipulative the system was.
00:23:10.720 --> 00:23:20.160
We were told he was a he was a malcontent, he was not well liked by the fan by the by the locker room, he didn't like we were told a bunch of stuff about this also feels uh legit racist.
00:23:20.319 --> 00:23:23.359
It feels like it feels like this is rooted in racism.
00:23:23.759 --> 00:23:24.240
Sure.
00:23:25.119 --> 00:23:29.039
Obviously, and but like this is like I'm like blatant racism.
00:23:29.119 --> 00:23:29.839
Okay, cool.
00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:34.319
And and it and like Kirk Cousins ended up having an amazing career to their credit.
00:23:34.480 --> 00:23:37.839
Kirk Cousins was a great quarterback who we also let go for nothing, by the way.
00:23:38.079 --> 00:23:39.359
But um it's worth knowing.
00:23:39.599 --> 00:23:40.400
And we love Kirk Cousins.
00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:41.359
We love Mr.
00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:42.000
Great Cliffs.
00:23:42.079 --> 00:23:42.880
We love Kirk Cousins.
00:23:42.960 --> 00:23:43.759
Thank God he got a sponsor.
00:23:44.079 --> 00:23:50.960
I can't say enough good things about Kirk Cousins, but we let but we really wrecked RG3's career over it, and they really misled us as a fan base.
00:23:51.119 --> 00:24:06.480
And the fan base has done one of the best, and I would think say emotional things for us as a fan base uh was uh RG three coming back a couple years ago to the stadium and cause when we got rid of Snyder and being like, We're back.
00:24:06.640 --> 00:24:10.480
It was like him saying that meant a lot to us as a fan base because I think we feel a lot of guilt towards him.
00:24:10.720 --> 00:24:11.279
That's really tough.
00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:11.519
Yeah.
00:24:11.759 --> 00:24:13.519
I mean, I mean that's beautiful, but that's really tough.
00:24:13.759 --> 00:24:16.480
So so I I don't think it's fair to say that injury derailed his career.
00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:17.279
I would say we did.
00:24:17.440 --> 00:24:19.440
Like I like Dan Snyder derailed his career.
00:24:19.680 --> 00:24:33.920
Well, and you say we though, and that's what sucks is like as a when you're such when you're such a fan of a team and you feel responsible, even though it's like obviously you're dealing with the devil, but you feel like you're part of that, you know, because you're you're rooting for them.
00:24:34.240 --> 00:24:35.519
At the end of the day, I bought the store.
00:24:35.599 --> 00:24:36.640
I mean, I wasn't actually.
00:24:37.039 --> 00:24:38.000
Did you buy the story?
00:24:38.240 --> 00:24:45.599
At the time, but they tell me they tell me the locker room doesn't like him and he doesn't know the playbook and he isn't easy to work with, and I go, okay, I don't know.
00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:46.160
I'm not in there.
00:24:46.319 --> 00:24:46.480
Right.
00:24:46.559 --> 00:24:46.960
No, of course.
00:24:47.920 --> 00:24:48.079
Of course.
00:24:48.400 --> 00:24:51.279
And it never occurred to me we would just lie.
00:24:51.519 --> 00:24:54.160
Like it just never occurred to me like How old were you then?
00:24:54.720 --> 00:24:56.160
I mean, no, I'm I'm an adult.
00:24:56.240 --> 00:24:56.880
I'm in my 20s.
00:24:57.119 --> 00:24:57.759
It doesn't matter though.
00:24:57.839 --> 00:25:00.640
Like, I mean, I would say, like I was like, do we just lie?
00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:13.119
It's one of the reasons why I think with Jaden, you know, this past off season, uh, due to his mom and a couple other things, people start, and as a fan base, we're like, over our dead body are we turning on Jaden?
00:25:13.279 --> 00:25:14.079
Yeah, you gotta protect it.
00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:17.200
Over our dead, over my dead body am I getting RG3 again.
00:25:17.359 --> 00:25:22.480
He's an angel, he's a saint, and unless I physically see it, I'm not turning on him.
00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:24.079
Because I turned on RG.
00:25:24.400 --> 00:25:27.680
Because I at the time I went, RG3 doesn't like being a part of this team.
00:25:27.759 --> 00:25:28.880
RG3 doesn't know the playbook.
00:25:29.119 --> 00:25:32.160
RG3, the locker room doesn't like RG3, I was told.
00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:32.640
Right.
00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:34.480
And that's one of the things, yeah, I know.
00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:36.559
He's put it he put his hand up in the air.
00:25:36.720 --> 00:25:42.880
Um, I I would love for you though to I'd love an image of you walking into the like you hear a rumor now, and then you walk in.
00:25:43.039 --> 00:25:48.720
You as Danny, you you're like you've barsed your way through and you you go into locker room just to just to be like, no, I gotta see it.
00:25:48.880 --> 00:25:49.519
Oh, I gotta see it.
00:25:49.599 --> 00:25:50.160
Yeah, yeah.
00:25:50.240 --> 00:25:51.759
Oh, I'll I'll text players.
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:52.240
Yeah.
00:25:52.480 --> 00:25:53.440
Do you like Jaden?
00:25:53.839 --> 00:25:55.680
He seems like a good dude to me.
00:25:55.839 --> 00:25:56.000
Yeah.
00:25:56.240 --> 00:25:56.960
And they all say yes.
00:25:57.119 --> 00:25:57.279
Good.
00:25:57.599 --> 00:25:58.480
I bet they all say yes.
00:25:58.720 --> 00:25:59.279
I bet they do.
00:25:59.359 --> 00:26:01.920
I I Jaden is up, as the kids say these days.
00:26:02.000 --> 00:26:04.960
Um, a couple more things, uh real quickly.
00:26:05.200 --> 00:26:07.440
Uh but yes, I understand.
00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:08.960
That that that that sucks.
00:26:09.039 --> 00:26:12.160
It but it I can I just say, since this is therapy, yeah.
00:26:13.119 --> 00:26:14.240
It wasn't your fault.
00:26:14.640 --> 00:26:15.359
I appreciate that.
00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:18.480
And can I just say that's the old story?
00:26:19.119 --> 00:26:21.279
That's the story you were living with in the past.
00:26:22.400 --> 00:26:23.359
This is your new story.
00:26:23.519 --> 00:26:23.759
That's right.
00:26:23.920 --> 00:26:25.519
The new story is you didn't know.
00:26:26.880 --> 00:26:36.240
You were lied to, and you believed you were just like you were you were believing in the good of the team, and it wasn't it wasn't your fault.
00:26:36.960 --> 00:26:37.920
Danny.
00:26:39.440 --> 00:26:47.279
RG3 losing his career and never having a career again.
00:26:47.599 --> 00:26:54.000
Well is not your fault.
00:26:54.799 --> 00:26:55.920
It wasn't my fault.
00:26:56.079 --> 00:26:58.079
I don't think I helped, but it wasn't my fault.
00:26:58.480 --> 00:27:02.319
I look, I Google, I Googled, it turns out you were leading like the charge against RG.
00:27:02.799 --> 00:27:03.440
RG3.
00:27:03.759 --> 00:27:05.200
And I'm like, well, okay, never mind.
00:27:05.359 --> 00:27:05.759
I don't know.
00:27:05.839 --> 00:27:08.319
I just but I just did it, you know, we didn't stand up.
00:27:08.400 --> 00:27:09.119
We should have stood up for him.
00:27:09.200 --> 00:27:09.440
We didn't know.
00:27:09.599 --> 00:27:10.319
Hey, you need to know what now.
00:27:10.720 --> 00:27:13.279
But I love that he's having such an amazing post-playing career.
00:27:13.440 --> 00:27:13.920
Yeah, he's amazing.
00:27:14.160 --> 00:27:19.279
He's very nice to see, and like, even if at times he can be a little cringe, yeah, he's cringe.
00:27:19.440 --> 00:27:21.599
I'm like, I'm not doing it'll never turn on RG3 again.
00:27:21.680 --> 00:27:25.200
Yeah, he's meant to and and I meant so much that he came back to us.
00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:26.160
Meant a lot.
00:27:26.400 --> 00:27:26.960
Emotionally.
00:27:27.119 --> 00:27:27.279
Good.
00:27:27.519 --> 00:27:28.160
Talk about therapy.
00:27:28.400 --> 00:27:31.119
Seeing him on that field, got me.
00:27:31.359 --> 00:27:33.039
I'm glad that he I'm glad they did that for you guys.
00:27:33.440 --> 00:27:45.839
Um I just want to know that we are finally, finally, after public pressure, which you had already alluded to, you guys changed the name, but it didn't go to the commanders first, it went to the Washington football team, which is, I'm sorry, hilarious.
00:27:46.079 --> 00:27:46.720
I loved it.
00:27:46.960 --> 00:27:49.680
The wash you love the Washington football team?
00:27:50.000 --> 00:27:50.880
Let's go football!
00:27:51.200 --> 00:27:51.680
I loved it.
00:27:51.920 --> 00:27:52.160
Yep.
00:27:52.400 --> 00:27:53.359
We already I get it.
00:27:53.440 --> 00:27:55.359
Like it's Oh, it was so fun for those couple years.
00:27:55.440 --> 00:27:55.759
Anytime.
00:27:56.000 --> 00:27:56.720
Who are you a fan of?
00:27:56.799 --> 00:27:58.160
I'm a fan of the team.
00:27:58.400 --> 00:27:59.519
That's what I usually say.
00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:00.319
I'm a fan of the team.
00:28:00.559 --> 00:28:01.519
Well, that's what we say at Alabama.
00:28:01.599 --> 00:28:03.200
We're like the University of Alabama.
00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:04.559
Yeah, we're the football team.
00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:05.440
Yeah, we're the team.
00:28:05.519 --> 00:28:06.559
I'm a fan of the football team.
00:28:06.640 --> 00:28:07.359
It was so fun.
00:28:07.519 --> 00:28:10.480
We had a great time with that, and I'm bummed out they changed it.
00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:12.319
Uh yeah, Commanders is interesting.
00:28:12.400 --> 00:28:13.680
I I don't love it either.
00:28:13.759 --> 00:28:14.559
I maybe you're right.
00:28:14.640 --> 00:28:17.599
I do think Washington football team might just be fun because it's dumb.
00:28:17.680 --> 00:28:17.920
Yeah.
00:28:18.160 --> 00:28:20.480
But now you guys are finally the commanders.
00:28:20.720 --> 00:28:20.880
Sure.
00:28:21.119 --> 00:28:27.119
And then the short list is the commanders haven't won the Super Bowl since 1991, which is a full millennial human.
00:28:27.680 --> 00:28:29.920
Last season you went five and twelve.
00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:33.920
That's funny because two years ago you went twelve and five, then you went five and twelve.
00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:34.079
Yeah.
00:28:34.240 --> 00:28:35.359
It's just literally inverted.
00:28:35.440 --> 00:28:37.440
You missed the playoffs in the last eight of ten years.
00:28:37.519 --> 00:28:41.119
And the NFL Network recently released a list of the top 100 players.
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:42.079
Do you know about this?
00:28:42.559 --> 00:28:43.680
For this season, yes, I do.
00:28:43.759 --> 00:28:44.640
It's absolute horseshit.
00:28:44.960 --> 00:28:46.480
Going into the 2026 season.
00:28:46.720 --> 00:28:49.759
And what absolute horseshit from NFL Network, go ahead.
00:28:50.000 --> 00:28:54.559
And the only team without a single player on the list, you guessed it, the Washington Commanders.
00:28:54.720 --> 00:28:54.960
Yeah.
00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:57.599
One of the dumbest lists I've ever seen.
00:28:57.680 --> 00:29:01.359
I could name at least three players on our team that should have been on there.
00:29:01.440 --> 00:29:02.559
Uh, it was ridiculous.
00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:03.440
One being Jaden.
00:29:03.599 --> 00:29:04.160
I mean, obvious.
00:29:04.640 --> 00:29:05.839
Truly, like not putting Jaden on a list.
00:29:06.000 --> 00:29:08.720
Was like Japaline and Laramie Tunsil.
00:29:08.799 --> 00:29:09.920
The two of them, it's like, what do we think?
00:29:10.160 --> 00:29:12.079
Jaden was injured a lot last year.
00:29:13.680 --> 00:29:17.920
Is the game the top 100 players in the league or is it not?
00:29:20.240 --> 00:29:20.960
What's the game?
00:29:21.200 --> 00:29:26.480
I think it's because he got the CJ Stroud treatment because CJ Stroud was so good and then was so booty the next year.
00:29:26.880 --> 00:29:29.119
But the thing is, Jayden wasn't so booty.
00:29:29.279 --> 00:29:30.400
Jaden had a good season.
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:31.440
He just kept getting hurt.
00:29:31.599 --> 00:29:32.000
Wasn't it?
00:29:32.640 --> 00:29:34.000
You look at his statistics, they were fine.
00:29:34.079 --> 00:29:36.559
I I'm just reading the fact and he had no receivers.
00:29:36.799 --> 00:29:37.759
I'm just reading the facts.
00:29:38.000 --> 00:29:38.880
I understand.
00:29:39.119 --> 00:29:42.319
But let it be known, NFL Network, garbage.
00:29:42.559 --> 00:29:43.279
He's gonna get it this year.
00:29:43.359 --> 00:29:44.880
He's gonna get it, because everyone's up on him.
00:29:45.039 --> 00:29:46.720
Um, okay, so that was a lot.
00:29:46.880 --> 00:29:48.559
Uh that was exposure therapy.
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:49.759
I want to check in though.
00:29:49.839 --> 00:29:50.799
Uh, how do you feel?
00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:52.720
So many other names you could have said.
00:29:52.880 --> 00:29:54.640
Uh it's uh it's I could have gone.
00:29:54.720 --> 00:30:00.079
I mean, you could have gone Gus Faraday, you could have gone Heath Schuler, you could have gone Michael Westbrook and Steven Davis fighting a training camp.
00:30:00.240 --> 00:30:00.720
You could have gone.
00:30:00.960 --> 00:30:07.039
I mean, like, I mean, the amount of things I can bring up that I'm like, boy, we had a rough go of it the whole way.
00:30:07.119 --> 00:30:16.880
Um it seems like it just kept going up until this past, up until now, and I I do want to talk about this current season, but I want to go back a little bit because we were kind of talking about before.
00:30:16.960 --> 00:30:21.200
Yeah, you're diehard commanders fan, you've been through a lot, you're still hanging on.
00:30:21.359 --> 00:30:25.119
So clearly it's like you already said, I am this is my team.
00:30:25.599 --> 00:30:28.160
I bleed Burgundy and Gold.
00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:28.720
Yep.
00:30:29.359 --> 00:30:29.759
Why?
00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:32.240
Like you said, your dad got you into it?
00:30:32.480 --> 00:30:37.119
Yeah, most most football, I mean, most sports fans to me are given their teams.
00:30:37.359 --> 00:30:37.599
Yeah.
00:30:37.759 --> 00:30:38.640
Uh that's same.
00:30:38.799 --> 00:30:42.319
Yeah, like that's that's historically how it goes, and that was what happened.
00:30:42.400 --> 00:30:44.960
My dad was like, we're DC sports fans.
00:30:45.200 --> 00:30:49.119
Um I'm a Did he sit you down one day, or was it just sort of happen did it just kind of happen?
00:30:49.279 --> 00:30:53.200
You it just was like, oh, it's a I mean it's like I don't remember the exact but I my mind it was like a sit-down.
00:30:53.279 --> 00:30:54.400
It was like, who are our teams?
00:30:54.480 --> 00:30:56.960
And he was like, We are a DC sports household.
00:30:57.119 --> 00:31:04.720
We root for the Commanders, we root for the Wizards, we root for the Capitals, and then when I was growing when I was a baby, we didn't have a baseball team.
00:31:05.440 --> 00:31:08.400
So uh this is how much of a DC sports fan my dad was.
00:31:08.480 --> 00:31:09.519
I was like, Who's our baseball team?
00:31:09.680 --> 00:31:10.720
He was like, We do not have one.
00:31:11.119 --> 00:31:11.759
And we will wait for it.
00:31:12.160 --> 00:31:13.599
He didn't go Baltimore Orioles.
00:31:13.839 --> 00:31:15.359
He was like, We will wait for our team.
00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:16.480
Our team is coming.
00:31:17.119 --> 00:31:19.279
So I was a nationals fan before they existed.
00:31:20.240 --> 00:31:24.000
Did he know a team was coming, or was he just saying, like, energetically, a team?
00:31:24.880 --> 00:31:29.759
DC, not DC not having a baseball team is garbage and insane and should never have happened.
00:31:30.160 --> 00:31:30.720
Is there a reason?
00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:36.079
Yeah, the owner was an absolute scumbag way back in the day, and so they fled in the middle of the night to Texas.
00:31:36.240 --> 00:31:44.559
The Texas Rangers are the are the Washington Senators, which is why the Washington when we when the team came back, we couldn't be the Senators because technically the Washington Senators are the Texas Rangers.
00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:45.519
I hate that shit.
00:31:45.759 --> 00:31:52.079
Same thing where it's like um That's the other thing when people give DC sports shit about the name change, give us a as a fan base.
00:31:52.319 --> 00:31:53.599
They're like, you guys don't want to change the name.
00:31:53.680 --> 00:31:55.519
And it's like fun fact.
00:31:55.680 --> 00:31:57.680
I've been through three name changes in my life.
00:31:59.119 --> 00:32:01.359
Out of my four teams, three have changed names.
00:32:01.680 --> 00:32:02.400
Yeah, you're cool about that.
00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:03.519
You think I can't handle it?
00:32:04.000 --> 00:32:04.960
You think I can't handle it?
00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:06.799
The Capitals are the only ones stayed consistent.
00:32:06.960 --> 00:32:12.720
We went centers to nationals, we went bullets to wizards, and then I went Redskins to football.
00:32:12.799 --> 00:32:15.279
I I've been through a name change, could give two shits.
00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:16.480
But I'm a DC sports fan.
00:32:16.559 --> 00:32:18.960
My dad raised me DC sports, I'll never be anything but D.C.
00:32:19.039 --> 00:32:19.200
sports.
00:32:19.440 --> 00:32:20.400
And where are you from?
00:32:20.640 --> 00:32:21.039
DC.
00:32:21.119 --> 00:32:22.160
Um DC proper?
00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:22.880
Virginia.
00:32:23.039 --> 00:32:23.599
Okay, Virginia.
00:32:23.680 --> 00:32:23.839
Okay.
00:32:24.079 --> 00:32:28.480
Born in DC, spent my first couple years in Maryland, raised in Virginia, so I say I'm a true DMV kid.
00:32:28.720 --> 00:32:29.359
DMV kid.

00:32:29.839 --> 00:32:33.599
Yeah, you said DMV earlier, and I was like, I was like, please don't bring up the DMV.
00:32:34.640 --> 00:32:35.200
No, no, no.
00:32:35.279 --> 00:32:36.160
The actual that's what it's called.
00:32:36.319 --> 00:32:37.039
Why is it DMV again?
00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:38.000
DC, Maryland, Virginia.
00:32:38.160 --> 00:32:39.119
DC, Maryland, Virginia.
00:32:39.279 --> 00:32:39.440
Okay.
00:32:39.519 --> 00:32:39.759
Wow.

00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:42.960
Okay, so it was your dad.
00:32:43.119 --> 00:32:48.400
Um, and do you feel like it was a terrible decision or do you think it was the best decision that you guys made as a family?
00:32:48.559 --> 00:32:50.480
That he because he made this choice for you.
00:32:50.720 --> 00:32:50.960
100%.
00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:52.720
You didn't have a choice.
00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:53.200
No.
00:32:53.759 --> 00:32:54.000
No.
00:32:54.240 --> 00:33:06.559
And I would and what I say is I believe the beauty believing in the life is filled with choices.
00:33:07.039 --> 00:33:10.240
There's an easy choice, there's a hard choice in life.
00:33:10.640 --> 00:33:10.880
Sure.
00:33:11.359 --> 00:33:12.799
Same thing's true with sports.
00:33:13.279 --> 00:33:14.240
You can go.
00:33:14.880 --> 00:33:16.640
I'm just gonna root for the best teams.
00:33:16.799 --> 00:33:18.559
I'm gonna look at the lineup every year.
00:33:18.720 --> 00:33:18.799
Right.
00:33:19.039 --> 00:33:22.960
I'm gonna go with, alright, this year, this year I'm gonna be a Rams fan.
00:33:23.200 --> 00:33:27.039
This year I'm gonna be Well, that's that that went that that ended quickly, but yeah.
00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:29.440
Yeah, their odds changed by a hundred points.
00:33:29.519 --> 00:33:37.759
Everybody when every single pundit on TV was like, except for Nick Wright, and I know Nick is cringe.
00:33:37.839 --> 00:33:38.240
I get it.
00:33:38.319 --> 00:33:39.359
I understand Nick is cringe.
00:33:40.640 --> 00:33:40.960
Thank you.
00:33:41.359 --> 00:33:42.000
Big Nick Wright fan.
00:33:42.799 --> 00:33:43.359
Love his poker work.
00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:45.599
Genuinely, he's great on poker.
00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:49.039
He's so good at poker, and he's so fun on the broad.
00:33:49.359 --> 00:33:52.319
I like uh I love him, but it's also because I'm a Chiefs fan.
00:33:52.400 --> 00:33:52.640
Yeah.
00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:54.720
Um, and and no, not a bandwagon.
00:33:54.799 --> 00:33:57.119
I grew up, uh military kid grew up in parts of Kansas City.
00:33:57.200 --> 00:33:58.240
I'm wearing my little Chiefs pin.
00:33:58.400 --> 00:33:58.640
I see.
00:33:59.279 --> 00:34:00.720
It's really, really cute.
00:34:02.400 --> 00:34:06.000
I also know we have an issue with our name too, but it's it's necessary.
00:34:06.319 --> 00:34:09.920
Yeah, unfortunately, that's the problem we changed ours, is I was like, hope everyone else is ready.
00:34:10.159 --> 00:34:11.280
They're coming for you next.
00:34:11.440 --> 00:34:11.679
I know.
00:34:11.840 --> 00:34:13.679
Because we were a smokescreen for everybody else.
00:34:14.880 --> 00:34:17.360
Oh, I thought it was uh Cleveland first.
00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:19.119
I thought it was the Guardians first.
00:34:19.360 --> 00:34:25.119
Well, so they changed first, but we were we were the great smokescreen, because we were worse than them.
00:34:25.280 --> 00:34:27.519
We were the worst name by I mean, horrific.
00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:31.760
I mean, you even to this day I say it and I'm like, I hate saying No, it's horrific.
00:34:31.840 --> 00:34:32.639
It's horrific.
00:34:32.800 --> 00:34:33.840
I said it a hundred times.
00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:34.800
I said it a million times.
00:34:35.119 --> 00:34:36.239
Just now, just now, just now, just now.
00:34:36.400 --> 00:34:38.400
I've said it so many times in my life, I've said it so many times.
00:34:38.719 --> 00:34:39.360
No, it's bad, it's a bad thing.
00:34:39.440 --> 00:34:47.920
And I used to have a bad and I used to have a whole rant about it that like, you know, it would be like if you woke up one day and somebody was like, somebody was like, you were like, Can I get a hamburger?
00:34:48.000 --> 00:34:53.280
And they were like, Did you know hamburger means a super offensive term for Polish people?
00:34:53.519 --> 00:34:53.760
Right.
00:34:53.920 --> 00:34:57.039
And you'd be like, But I mean a hamburger.
00:34:57.360 --> 00:34:57.760
Right.
00:34:58.239 --> 00:34:59.119
You know what I'm saying?
00:34:59.280 --> 00:35:02.480
It's like, you know I'm talking about my football team.
00:35:02.639 --> 00:35:02.960
Yeah.
00:35:03.119 --> 00:35:08.239
And that said Actually, you know, you know, I'll give a ton of credit to my dad.
00:35:08.480 --> 00:35:09.920
My dad Is he a good one?
00:35:10.079 --> 00:35:13.920
He my dad did he march to City Hall and say change the name?
00:35:14.239 --> 00:35:17.679
A couple years before before the name changed, my dad was like, it's gotta stop.
00:35:17.840 --> 00:35:18.480
Enough's enough.
00:35:18.559 --> 00:35:19.119
I was very proud.
00:35:19.280 --> 00:35:21.679
I was very Come on, what generation are we talking?
00:35:21.920 --> 00:35:22.239
I know.
00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:23.280
What how old is your dad?
00:35:23.440 --> 00:35:24.719
He's 68, 69.
00:35:24.960 --> 00:35:25.840
Let's go, dad.
00:35:26.000 --> 00:35:26.639
What's his name?
00:35:26.800 --> 00:35:27.840
Rob Jollis.
00:35:28.079 --> 00:35:29.119
Rob Jollis.
00:35:29.280 --> 00:35:30.079
Rob Jolly.
00:35:30.480 --> 00:35:30.719
Great man.
00:35:30.880 --> 00:35:31.360
You're a good guy.
00:35:31.519 --> 00:35:34.559
And I I I believe that he's the one that did it.
00:35:34.719 --> 00:35:43.440
And he was uh, yeah, he was he was I was so impressed with him, and that was like really for me when I was like, okay, then because I'd I had been qu a quieter like enough's enough.
00:35:43.679 --> 00:35:43.920
Yeah.
00:35:44.079 --> 00:35:47.360
But then that really was like, ah, I'm gonna be so I was one of the ones who was like, enough's enough.
00:35:47.519 --> 00:35:48.800
Just change the stupid name.
00:35:48.960 --> 00:35:49.519
And then we did.
00:35:49.679 --> 00:36:04.320
Yeah, and I think that's I think that's the hard thing is when you have a fan when you have a team that has a name like that and that is racist, I think it also makes a lot of people feel like the fans are all racist or they don't care.
00:36:04.639 --> 00:36:07.840
But it turns out like a lot of the fans they do care.
00:36:08.000 --> 00:36:12.320
It's like you saying, like, I was disgusted by it, and it just it's just bad all around.
00:36:12.400 --> 00:36:20.719
And that sucks to deal with because you're walking around and you're like, This is my team, but I know that it has a horrible name, and what do I do?
00:36:21.920 --> 00:36:22.880
I get in a nightmare.
00:36:29.920 --> 00:36:42.000
And I'm getting every time I say, Oh, I'm a fan of, everybody's like, oh my god, and I'm like, I'm so I'm I'm getting scolded every other week for so I was just like, enough's enough with a stupid team.
00:36:42.079 --> 00:36:42.320
Right.
00:36:42.480 --> 00:36:43.519
Just change the name.
00:36:43.599 --> 00:36:44.480
So I was like, done.
00:36:44.559 --> 00:36:44.800
Good.
00:36:45.119 --> 00:36:45.599
Change the name.
00:36:45.920 --> 00:36:46.079
Good.
00:36:46.239 --> 00:36:47.679
All right, I got a couple questions for you.
00:36:47.840 --> 00:36:48.159
Yeah, yeah.
00:36:48.400 --> 00:36:49.679
What's up with the Hogs?
00:36:50.400 --> 00:36:50.880
Love them.
00:36:51.119 --> 00:36:51.440
Great.
00:36:51.599 --> 00:36:53.760
A little piece of our a little piece of tradition for us.
00:36:54.000 --> 00:36:55.519
Because it just sounds like a big fat dick.
00:36:55.760 --> 00:37:00.719
So the Hogs are a um was an offensive line we had in the 80s that was famous.
00:37:00.880 --> 00:37:03.679
Um we It's like the Crimson Tide.
00:37:03.920 --> 00:37:13.280
Yeah, so it was so the Hogs was the name of that offensive line, and then the Hoggettes started, which was these uh group of That's our producer laughing off camera.
00:37:13.440 --> 00:37:14.079
Laughs so casual.
00:37:14.320 --> 00:37:15.440
Well, do you know what the Hoggettes are?
00:37:15.760 --> 00:37:17.360
No, but I can only imagine, Danny.
00:37:17.599 --> 00:37:18.719
I don't think you can.
00:37:19.039 --> 00:37:28.880
It's a group of very large men who you can look you can look them up, uh, who are uh who's stay who might have to crack them.
00:37:31.840 --> 00:37:33.840
I believe those Hoggettes are still going strong.
00:37:34.639 --> 00:37:36.960
Well, they're I mean they're not transitioning.
00:37:37.199 --> 00:37:46.719
I mean they they're they are for sure men dressing as well, but they're not doing it as part of the goof, but they're not doing it to make fun of anyone, they're doing it because it's fun.
00:37:47.039 --> 00:37:49.440
They're like they just like to be the We got bigger issues than the Hoggets.
00:37:49.519 --> 00:37:50.239
I love the Hoggettes.
00:37:50.320 --> 00:37:51.119
But that's why but the Hogs.
00:37:51.360 --> 00:37:51.920
No, you know what?
00:37:52.000 --> 00:37:52.880
Honestly, I'll give that to you.
00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:53.760
You do have bigger issues.
00:37:53.920 --> 00:37:54.239
You did.
00:37:54.320 --> 00:37:55.119
You remember past.
00:37:55.519 --> 00:37:55.599
Past.
00:37:55.760 --> 00:37:56.000
You did.
00:37:56.159 --> 00:38:06.800
We didn't, but so but uh but I love the Hoggets, and I thought, and particularly as time went on and the amount of issues we have, when people would bring up like, and these guys, I'd be like, shut your dumb mouth.
00:38:07.039 --> 00:38:07.440
Yeah.
00:38:07.679 --> 00:38:12.800
We have let us have one thing that can stay throughout throughout this whole.
00:38:12.880 --> 00:38:13.840
Can we have one?
00:38:14.159 --> 00:38:17.360
Yeah, and also it's like if they're having fun and they're not being rude about it.
00:38:17.599 --> 00:38:18.639
They're being great, they're great fans.
00:38:18.800 --> 00:38:19.679
I like the Hoggettes.
00:38:19.760 --> 00:38:20.880
I like I love that idea.
00:38:21.039 --> 00:38:23.440
Yeah, um, this is something that's interesting.
00:38:23.599 --> 00:38:26.480
Washington Commanders, I God, this is crazy.
00:38:26.559 --> 00:38:28.079
I I watched a video on this.
00:38:28.320 --> 00:38:32.079
They're selling merch with the Redskins' name and logos right now at your team store.
00:38:32.159 --> 00:38:33.119
Did you know this?
00:38:34.000 --> 00:38:35.280
It doesn't say the words.
00:38:35.440 --> 00:38:35.840
No way.
00:38:36.079 --> 00:38:36.639
Yeah, okay.
00:38:36.719 --> 00:38:37.440
No, they are.

They're selling merch with the Redskins name and logos.
00:38:43.599 --> 00:38:44.960
Oh, at Hogshaven?
00:38:45.199 --> 00:38:48.800
Well, I don't know if it's specifically at Hogshaven, but it it is the Washington Commanders.
00:38:49.119 --> 00:38:53.679
It's because just to use the IP, because if they don't use the IP, they're gonna lose it.
00:38:53.840 --> 00:38:54.639
You didn't know about this?
00:38:54.800 --> 00:38:56.719
This is happening as of like a month ago.
00:38:57.039 --> 00:38:59.039
On the Official Commander's website.
00:38:59.280 --> 00:39:00.880
I don't know if it's official commander's website.
00:39:01.360 --> 00:39:02.559
But I No Wait.
00:39:02.880 --> 00:39:03.599
Can we get a fact check?
00:39:03.760 --> 00:39:04.800
Can we get uh fact check it?
00:39:05.039 --> 00:39:05.679
Fact check it.
00:39:05.840 --> 00:39:06.320
Fact check.
00:39:06.400 --> 00:39:09.119
I know I got I saw the video on Hogshaven.com.
00:39:09.199 --> 00:39:10.639
I'm not, but I that's my source.
00:39:10.880 --> 00:39:11.280
I don't know.
00:39:11.360 --> 00:39:14.400
I know nothing except feels very off-brand for us.
00:39:14.639 --> 00:39:17.440
You mean if well it kind of feels on brand of how it used to be.
00:39:17.679 --> 00:39:18.639
But we're but we're different.
00:39:18.719 --> 00:39:19.679
We're a new place.
00:39:20.000 --> 00:39:21.679
I can't play, I can't play double days.
00:39:25.599 --> 00:39:26.960
Sorry, to dead name your team.
00:39:27.199 --> 00:39:28.880
Redskins name slash logo.
00:39:29.360 --> 00:39:31.599
Name slash logo on it or just logo?
00:39:31.920 --> 00:39:32.320
Name.
00:39:32.559 --> 00:39:33.440
Name slash logo.
00:39:33.760 --> 00:39:34.639
On the on it?
00:39:34.880 --> 00:39:37.199
Is it on the look at the official website?
00:39:37.360 --> 00:39:38.880
Just see if it's on the official website.
00:39:38.960 --> 00:39:39.920
This is a big deal.
00:39:40.320 --> 00:39:41.039
I'll be bummed.
00:39:41.119 --> 00:39:42.159
I'll be bummed out.
00:39:42.320 --> 00:39:42.880
I'm sorry.
00:39:43.119 --> 00:39:45.599
But it it if it's an IP issue, fine.
00:39:45.920 --> 00:39:46.960
That's why they're doing it.
00:39:47.039 --> 00:39:50.480
There was a reporter outside because they're like, we will lose the IP and anyone else.
00:39:50.559 --> 00:39:52.159
But also, why do you want to keep the IP?
00:39:52.400 --> 00:39:55.119
Uh because then someone else will print off a million shirts.
00:39:55.360 --> 00:39:58.400
So you can't you have to But but but it's such a racist name.
00:39:58.480 --> 00:39:58.800
Let them.
00:39:59.119 --> 00:40:00.079
No, we d no.
00:40:00.239 --> 00:40:06.400
Then people listen, the a fan base, the beautiful thing about sports, the thing I love about sports.
00:40:06.719 --> 00:40:07.119
Hey, you know what?
00:40:07.199 --> 00:40:09.039
Tell me about sports is it brings us all together.
00:40:09.280 --> 00:40:09.760
I do that.
00:40:09.840 --> 00:40:10.800
I yes, I yes.
00:40:11.039 --> 00:40:11.519
I love that.
00:40:11.599 --> 00:40:17.920
I love the fact that I tried to make a show for forever in uh in this goddamn city about a sports bar.
00:40:18.079 --> 00:40:19.039
Oh, yeah, we're in LA, by the way.
00:40:19.119 --> 00:40:19.360
I don't know.
00:40:19.679 --> 00:40:27.119
Because I was like, I was trying to pitch a show with a TV show for sports bar because I was like, sports bar is the last place people with different viewpoints come together.
00:40:27.280 --> 00:40:27.519
Yeah.
00:40:27.679 --> 00:40:28.960
And I was like, and I love that.
00:40:29.039 --> 00:40:35.119
And so look, I it's why I love being a sports fan, is I've had conversations with people very different than me, and I love that.
00:40:35.199 --> 00:40:43.840
Now that said, there are many, therefore, I can tell you there are many sports fans that if you give them the option to buy that old name, they're gonna buy it every time.
00:40:44.079 --> 00:40:44.400
Right.
00:40:44.639 --> 00:40:48.320
So I'd prefer if it's a limited edition, if we gotta do it.
00:40:50.800 --> 00:40:52.559
Okay, okay, fact check.
00:40:52.800 --> 00:40:54.079
We'll let you keep looking at that.
00:40:54.239 --> 00:40:57.039
Um, what's the longest you've let your team ruin your mood?
00:40:57.280 --> 00:41:00.400
Oh is it just like, okay, well, actually it's a two-parter.
00:41:00.639 --> 00:41:13.280
Longest you've let your team ruin your mood, or and or was it at one point so bad there was just doom and gloom every day waking up because you knew that things were just it felt like you were never gonna get out of that hell.
00:41:13.599 --> 00:41:18.159
Well, you know, so there's I always say there's a beauty to a bad season.
00:41:18.400 --> 00:41:19.360
Like last season.
00:41:19.679 --> 00:41:20.639
Oh, I've never heard that.
00:41:20.880 --> 00:41:22.960
I ironically there's a beauty.
00:41:23.119 --> 00:41:24.320
There's a beauty to like last season.
00:41:24.639 --> 00:41:25.440
I don't I don't lose well.
00:41:25.599 --> 00:41:26.800
I'm gonna be honest, I don't lose well.
00:41:26.880 --> 00:41:28.079
So sure, I hate losing.
00:41:28.320 --> 00:41:31.920
But within six games of last season, I knew we were in massive trouble.
00:41:32.079 --> 00:41:32.239
Yeah.
00:41:32.400 --> 00:41:32.639
Right?
00:41:32.719 --> 00:41:35.679
The c the season looked bleak really fast.
00:41:36.400 --> 00:41:44.480
Which is sad, but also kind of beautiful, because pretty quickly I was like, oh we don't need to get all up you know persnickety about this.
00:41:44.800 --> 00:41:45.920
Like it's over.
00:41:46.320 --> 00:41:56.960
I think the ones that really stick with you the most are when you're really in it and you're really competitive, and the commanders uh famously would break your heart, and it's the heartbreaks the heartbreak seasons are the ones that get you.
00:41:57.280 --> 00:42:02.559
We're and the ones where we would all we have to do is beat the cowboys and we get to make the playoffs and we don't.
00:42:02.960 --> 00:42:08.559
All we have to do is do this, and all we have to do is we just gotta win this game and we make the playoffs.
00:42:08.639 --> 00:42:15.840
All we gotta do, and for me, you know, this is a true broken fan of like I say anytime we hit the playoffs, I consider it an amazing season.
00:42:15.920 --> 00:42:16.559
That's where I'm at.
00:42:16.639 --> 00:42:19.920
It's like if you if you make the playoffs, I consider it a great season.
00:42:20.000 --> 00:42:21.360
Now let's go for it all.
00:42:21.679 --> 00:42:30.800
And uh we just had so many heartbreaking no playoff seasons, and those those would stick with me for an entire offseason, I think for months, those would stay with me.
00:42:31.519 --> 00:42:41.840
Well, and I guess my question is how do you believe, how do you find in your heart to believe if you're always coming up short, right?
00:42:44.239 --> 00:42:49.440
Where does it finally click for you to go, okay, I I'm gonna get up one more time and I'm gonna believe?
00:42:49.599 --> 00:42:53.599
Like if they keep not making it, how do you not fold in the towel?
00:42:53.840 --> 00:42:54.400
Ooh, we're back.
00:42:54.639 --> 00:42:56.400
We're back to what I was gonna talk about earlier.
00:42:57.599 --> 00:42:59.519
Life is about choices.
00:43:00.320 --> 00:43:02.480
There's a hard choice and there's an easy choice.
00:43:02.960 --> 00:43:07.440
The easy choice is I'm gonna root for whatever team I think is gonna win, I'm gonna root for the Rams, it's gonna be great.
00:43:07.840 --> 00:43:09.280
Or whatever team you think is gonna win.
00:43:10.320 --> 00:43:12.239
You root for we root for the easy teams.
00:43:12.960 --> 00:43:19.119
It's harder to go, I'm gonna root for one team my entire life, and I'm gonna truly believe in them.
00:43:19.599 --> 00:43:33.199
And I'm going to ride a much more painful journey, in the same way that choosing to go after a passion of yours will lead to much more heartbreak than going, I'm just gonna get a born job and live a live a chill life.
00:43:34.559 --> 00:43:37.679
With that comes, though, a greater reward.
00:43:38.000 --> 00:43:43.679
And the thing I tell people is if you stick with a team through pain, the wins feel better.
00:43:44.320 --> 00:43:53.679
When the commanders made the playoffs two years ago, I wept in my room because I've been through alone?
00:43:53.840 --> 00:43:54.079
Alone?
00:43:54.159 --> 00:43:55.679
Do you like to watch it alone or were you with okay?
00:43:56.079 --> 00:43:58.239
Unfortunately that was in front of friends.
00:43:58.480 --> 00:43:59.119
I cried.
00:43:59.440 --> 00:44:01.119
Oh it's I'm laughing because I've been there.
00:44:01.199 --> 00:44:01.599
I've been there.
00:44:02.000 --> 00:44:03.280
And it was it was very embarrassing.
00:44:03.440 --> 00:44:06.159
Somebody asked me a question because I was like, I was pretty chill.
00:44:06.239 --> 00:44:06.800
I was feeling it.
00:44:06.880 --> 00:44:07.599
I knew I was feeling it.
00:44:07.679 --> 00:44:10.000
I was like, wow, I cannot believe we just made the playoffs.
00:44:10.159 --> 00:44:13.360
Because we had won three games in a row in a last second play.
00:44:13.679 --> 00:44:17.519
Which historically we lose on the last second every single time.
00:44:18.000 --> 00:44:19.039
Well that's what I'm that's what I'm saying.
00:44:19.119 --> 00:44:21.199
Like, how do you and I'm not sorry, I'm not trying to derail you.
00:44:21.280 --> 00:44:23.039
I I I I want to keep going on this.
00:44:23.519 --> 00:44:27.039
How do you not like have a panic attack?
00:44:27.199 --> 00:44:32.719
Because if every single time you're like, we get to this play, it's like, you know, a lot of it's a lot of it is mental.
00:44:32.800 --> 00:44:36.159
A lot of it is believing, and you feel like you're willing the team.
00:44:36.480 --> 00:44:44.320
And so then and a lot of times when they actually like you believe, you're like, you know what, I'm vi I'm personally visualizing Mahomes making this play or whatever.
00:44:44.639 --> 00:44:54.480
So how do you Because when you get to those places, it's it's you you go, it's gonna be worth it in the end, right?
00:44:54.719 --> 00:44:59.679
Why do you do stand-up every single night of my entire adult life, basically?
00:45:00.559 --> 00:45:05.280
Missed a thousand things done because I believe in it, and I sometimes get really good rewards from that.
00:45:05.440 --> 00:45:06.320
Same with acting.
00:45:06.719 --> 00:45:09.599
And when I don't get the things I want, it's very frustrating.
00:45:09.679 --> 00:45:12.960
But you do it because the reward on the other side is greater.
00:45:13.599 --> 00:45:24.320
And when I got that moment in my life, even just that moment where we make the play, we win three games in a row in the last second, which has never happened.
00:45:24.559 --> 00:45:28.079
But it's worth it.
00:45:28.159 --> 00:45:39.199
Like that's why we do it, and that's why we commit to doing stand-up and acting, even when like sometimes it's really hard because every now and then something good happens and we go, that's why we did it, that's why we stuck in there.
00:45:40.000 --> 00:45:50.559
That's why sports is worth it, and that's why I encourage everyone, particularly if you're younger, to not just go, let me put together an assortment of teams that are great, but go pick a pick your city and stick with them.
00:45:50.800 --> 00:45:52.480
Yeah, or whatever you're a true fan.
00:45:52.719 --> 00:45:55.920
Or whatever you're born into, like maybe there's a reason, maybe there's a legend.
00:45:56.079 --> 00:45:56.320
Yeah.
00:45:56.480 --> 00:46:01.360
Um and it's and it is worth it for those that 20 year journey.
00:46:01.519 --> 00:46:06.719
And when I eventually do get a commander's win, like just to say again, I want to reiterate, 20 years.
00:46:06.960 --> 00:46:08.800
And 20 is kind, by the way.
00:46:08.960 --> 00:46:10.480
20 is kind of it's not 20 years.
00:46:10.960 --> 00:46:11.920
No, it's not, because I said 35.
00:46:12.159 --> 00:46:14.559
I said last time we went to the Super Bowl was a 35-year-old millennial person.
00:46:14.800 --> 00:46:17.679
And I will and I was a baby, so it's my entire life.
00:46:17.760 --> 00:46:18.960
I've never won a Super Bowl.
00:46:19.039 --> 00:46:19.840
Uh you will.
00:46:20.000 --> 00:46:23.840
But when we do, I'll weep my goddamn eyes out.
00:46:24.079 --> 00:46:24.320
Right.
00:46:24.400 --> 00:46:27.519
And we saw that with the Knicks, and I think that's like a perfect example.
00:46:27.920 --> 00:46:30.480
The Knicks are a great example of like finally belief.
00:46:30.800 --> 00:46:33.119
And if you believe it's worth it in the end.
00:46:34.320 --> 00:46:40.480
What uh on a scale of one to this is definitely our year, how delusional are you?
00:46:40.800 --> 00:46:41.119
Oh.
00:46:41.679 --> 00:46:46.000
Um you know, this year's a mystery box year for the commanders.
00:46:46.239 --> 00:46:46.400
Sure.
00:46:46.559 --> 00:46:53.440
We have a lot of new you know, we sort of had this amazing run one year where we won a ton of last second games.
00:46:53.760 --> 00:47:01.519
We had this incredible child emerge and uh was amazing.
00:47:01.760 --> 00:47:02.400
You mean Jaden?
00:47:02.719 --> 00:47:02.960
Jaden.
00:47:03.199 --> 00:47:03.519
Yeah.
00:47:03.760 --> 00:47:11.599
And uh we had this incredible run that was fluky in many ways.
00:47:12.719 --> 00:47:15.039
And also incre and also amazing.
00:47:15.280 --> 00:47:17.679
And then the whole thing flipped, right?
00:47:17.920 --> 00:47:24.480
Then we had this season where they went, we're gonna run it back, and we're gonna be the oldest team in football, they told us.
00:47:24.559 --> 00:47:26.639
They said, good news, we're gonna be old.
00:47:26.880 --> 00:47:28.480
We're gonna go with this strategy of being old.
00:47:28.639 --> 00:47:29.360
That was last season's right.
00:47:29.840 --> 00:47:31.920
Well, this year, I will say this year you're the sixth oldest.
00:47:32.079 --> 00:47:37.039
Yeah, but we're in the we're in the we're in the when you look at it, it's like 27.5.
00:47:37.360 --> 00:47:37.920
We're like 27.
00:47:38.239 --> 00:47:40.079
You're tied with the Falcon.
00:47:41.039 --> 00:47:42.239
No, we're tied with like 10 teams.
00:47:42.320 --> 00:47:45.440
Like, okay, it looked like it looked like six, but No, no, no.
00:47:45.679 --> 00:47:54.880
We did look at the hard.6 and like the middle of the pack is 27.4.
00:47:55.039 --> 00:47:55.199
All right.
00:47:55.360 --> 00:47:56.559
It's like we're right in the hunt.
00:47:56.800 --> 00:47:59.119
Last year we were the oldest by like years.
00:47:59.360 --> 00:48:00.159
Oh, that's funny.
00:48:00.400 --> 00:48:05.199
And they were like, we're old, but we're and then it was like injury derailed, the nightmare was horrible.
00:48:05.519 --> 00:48:06.159
Sure, sure, sure.
00:48:06.400 --> 00:48:08.239
This year, so we've had a ton of personnel change.
00:48:08.320 --> 00:48:09.440
We fired both coordinators.
00:48:09.679 --> 00:48:12.320
We have two new coordinators, yeah, tons of personnel change.
00:48:12.559 --> 00:48:15.199
You got David Blau and Devontae Jones.
00:48:15.360 --> 00:48:15.840
That's right.
00:48:16.079 --> 00:48:16.639
Come on.
00:48:16.800 --> 00:48:17.199
Come on.
00:48:17.280 --> 00:48:18.079
Someone did research.
00:48:18.320 --> 00:48:18.639
Duh.
00:48:18.960 --> 00:48:20.239
Uh that's my favorite thing.
00:48:20.400 --> 00:48:21.679
This is the only thing, by the way.
00:48:21.840 --> 00:48:25.760
I love comedy and acting more than anything and music, more than anything in this world.
00:48:26.239 --> 00:48:27.199
Except sports.
00:48:27.280 --> 00:48:33.519
Like, I I will and enough about me, but I I I it is uh thank you for giving me the floor.
00:48:33.599 --> 00:48:34.800
I I love sports so much.
00:48:34.960 --> 00:48:36.880
I just I I it's the best.
00:48:37.039 --> 00:48:41.519
And so it's like, if I can so of course I'm gonna do my fucking research.
00:48:41.599 --> 00:48:42.559
Anyway, keep going.
00:48:42.800 --> 00:48:45.920
So, yeah, two new coordinators, tons of new players.
00:48:46.159 --> 00:48:46.880
We just don't know.
00:48:46.960 --> 00:48:48.800
We don't know what the season's gonna be as a fan base.
00:48:49.119 --> 00:48:53.519
And I think that's truly the way going into it is like we could be who we were two years ago.
00:48:53.599 --> 00:48:54.960
There's no reason we can't be.
00:48:55.119 --> 00:48:56.960
We could be who we were last year.
00:48:57.119 --> 00:48:58.159
There's no reason why we couldn't.
00:48:58.400 --> 00:48:59.360
Well, give me a record.
00:49:00.079 --> 00:49:03.199
And tell me, give me a record what you think the record's gonna be.
00:49:03.440 --> 00:49:04.719
You went five and twelve last year.
00:49:04.960 --> 00:49:06.239
Yeah, so we have a vicious schedule.
00:49:06.400 --> 00:49:09.039
Our schedule is a really bad one.
00:49:09.199 --> 00:49:20.159
Um but I think the the I think we uh ten and seven is like our is kind of our really good.
00:49:20.559 --> 00:49:22.159
So we're talking like Bengals two years ago.
00:49:23.039 --> 00:49:29.119
We're talking that if we fight through because basically so the the first half of our season is just front loaded with hell.
00:49:29.440 --> 00:49:30.079
We're in hell.
00:49:30.239 --> 00:49:34.159
But if we can get through the first um couple years.
00:49:34.400 --> 00:49:35.519
The first couple years.
00:49:38.079 --> 00:49:41.440
If we can get through the first half of the season at 500, we're gonna be in great shape.
00:49:41.599 --> 00:49:41.920
Okay.
00:49:42.079 --> 00:49:42.960
But it's gonna be hard.
00:49:43.039 --> 00:49:44.079
So we I don't know.
00:49:44.239 --> 00:49:45.440
So I'm not delusional.
00:49:45.519 --> 00:49:49.840
I don't think we're but I think that I also don't, I mean, we truly don't know.
00:49:49.920 --> 00:49:52.400
We are a mystery team, which is why you're a mystery box.
00:49:52.559 --> 00:49:53.360
Your mystery mystery lines.
00:49:53.760 --> 00:49:58.880
The way we are being discussed by some of the pundits, I think is insane.
00:49:58.960 --> 00:50:00.400
Because I'm like, Yeah, they have you four.
00:50:00.559 --> 00:50:08.480
They on the and the in the NFC East, uh, they have you ranked uh ESPN has a 31 on the power rankings.
00:50:08.960 --> 00:50:10.719
And that's that doesn't make any sense.
00:50:10.880 --> 00:50:12.800
And if I may say, fucking garbage.
00:50:12.960 --> 00:50:13.599
No, that's not true.
00:50:13.760 --> 00:50:14.400
It's just not fair.
00:50:14.559 --> 00:50:16.079
Wait, I said I think I see something.
00:50:16.239 --> 00:50:16.639
Uh oh.
00:50:16.960 --> 00:50:17.599
What's happening?
00:50:17.679 --> 00:50:19.679
Uh oh, what's happening?
00:50:21.280 --> 00:50:24.159
Look, look that we got the glizzy queen coming in through.
00:50:24.320 --> 00:50:26.719
Um what's what's happening?
00:50:26.960 --> 00:50:28.639
Okay, we got some hot dogs here.
00:50:28.960 --> 00:50:30.239
Okay, we're doing a bit.
00:50:30.400 --> 00:50:34.000
We're doing a bit you wanna we got the glizzy queen.
00:50:34.239 --> 00:50:36.000
We've been making, we've been grilling this whole time.
00:50:36.239 --> 00:50:38.559
I w just lest we forget we're at a we're at a tailgate.
00:50:38.639 --> 00:50:40.400
Just Yeah, I keep forgetting where to head.
00:50:40.880 --> 00:50:49.039
Um and she's and we've got uh a glizzy queen in a in a hot dog costume that just rolled into an unbelievable job.
00:50:49.280 --> 00:50:50.079
Actually, it's pretty good.
00:50:50.719 --> 00:50:51.440
What do you like on your dog?
00:50:51.679 --> 00:50:52.719
I'm a mustard guy.
00:50:52.960 --> 00:50:53.599
A little mustard.
00:50:55.280 --> 00:50:59.679
Um yeah, because I want to do yours or my Well, I was gonna ask you some questions while you do.
00:50:59.840 --> 00:51:02.159
I can I can I can one hand I can one hand it.
00:51:02.320 --> 00:51:03.679
Um I think it is mystery.
00:51:03.760 --> 00:51:06.079
I will say, okay, here's what I here's what I'm hearing.
00:51:06.639 --> 00:51:07.039
You know what?
00:51:07.119 --> 00:51:07.920
I'm all on vibes.
00:51:08.079 --> 00:51:09.199
I'm a big vibes person.
00:51:10.639 --> 00:51:13.440
And I think that's actually a really good way to to do sports.
00:51:13.599 --> 00:51:14.000
You're good?
00:51:14.079 --> 00:51:14.480
Oh, really?
00:51:14.639 --> 00:51:15.360
Just mustard?
00:51:16.320 --> 00:51:17.360
I'm actually really excited.
00:51:17.599 --> 00:51:19.440
I wonder how I'm scared this is gonna go everywhere.
00:51:19.599 --> 00:51:21.440
But also who Oh, and it is.
00:51:22.000 --> 00:51:22.159
Cheers.
00:51:22.320 --> 00:51:23.199
Thanks for going to my tailgate.
00:51:23.360 --> 00:51:23.599
Of course.
00:51:23.679 --> 00:51:24.559
Thank you so much for having me.
00:51:25.599 --> 00:51:28.159
That's our Glizzy Queen talking off camera.
00:51:29.599 --> 00:51:30.800
Who's also our producer.
00:51:31.280 --> 00:51:32.400
Give it up for Elena.
00:51:32.559 --> 00:51:33.280
I'm gonna go, Elena.
00:51:33.440 --> 00:51:34.400
I'm gonna get a little air horn.
00:51:35.599 --> 00:51:35.840
Okay.
00:51:36.159 --> 00:51:39.280
Um, here's what I'm hearing.
00:51:39.440 --> 00:51:43.440
First of all, when I was watching I was watching First Things First, but I I that's not the only show I watch.
00:51:43.599 --> 00:51:47.679
But they do I like how they rank each like you know, division.
00:51:48.000 --> 00:51:53.039
And a lot of people were saying that they're they're they're putting they're putting the commanders below the giants.
00:51:53.360 --> 00:51:53.840
Totally.
00:51:54.800 --> 00:52:00.000
And I get they have Harbaugh, but at the same time you still have Dart.
00:52:00.239 --> 00:52:02.000
And we don't know how Dart's gonna be.
00:52:02.079 --> 00:52:04.480
And I trust in Jaden way more than I trust in Dart.
00:52:05.360 --> 00:52:08.800
Um and Scataboo is one running through a wall away.
00:52:09.280 --> 00:52:10.400
Anyway, so that's what they're doing.
00:52:10.800 --> 00:52:12.719
So that's what that's what the pundits are saying.
00:52:12.960 --> 00:52:20.079
But what I feel like in the streets saying Jaden's gonna have a bounce back here.
00:52:21.360 --> 00:52:22.800
Jaden's gonna go off.
00:52:23.039 --> 00:52:24.719
He he's got a lot to prove.
00:52:24.880 --> 00:52:27.039
I think he be on hit himself, he feels it.
00:52:27.119 --> 00:52:31.199
Not like I'm saying you gotta prove a lot to me as a you know, as someone who watches sports.
00:52:31.599 --> 00:52:35.599
I think he feels like he didn't get to the play he had such a great first year.
00:52:36.159 --> 00:52:37.760
He doesn't want to see Jay Stroud this.
00:52:38.800 --> 00:52:40.159
And he won't, because he's not.
00:52:40.880 --> 00:52:42.960
He's fiercely competitive, he's the best.
00:52:43.199 --> 00:52:49.440
He um, the question is the question is our offensive line is is really the question mark.
00:52:49.840 --> 00:52:57.920
If we can and wow, I mean like that's the thing, is like Jaden is the one thing that I know is good in this entire world.
00:52:58.400 --> 00:52:59.519
Sorry, I'm just chewing into this mic.
00:52:59.840 --> 00:53:04.800
In the entire world, the only thing I know anymore is that Jaden Daniels is great and everything else is a question mark.
00:53:05.280 --> 00:53:08.400
And so Well, I mean, unfortunately that's kind of how it is when you have a good quarterback.
00:53:08.559 --> 00:53:10.719
I mean, that's how I'm sure how Bengals fans feel.
00:53:10.960 --> 00:53:11.840
You know, when it comes to Burrow.
00:53:11.920 --> 00:53:12.320
It's like in the.
00:53:16.000 --> 00:53:22.320
I said aloud many times and I kept saying, which was like, there just came points in the game where you were like, I just don't want anyone else touching the ball.
00:53:23.039 --> 00:53:25.519
I don't want anyone else touching the ball but him.
00:53:26.159 --> 00:53:27.920
Let him do things.
00:53:28.239 --> 00:53:29.519
He's the only one I trust.
00:53:29.760 --> 00:53:30.880
That's how much I believe in him.
00:53:31.039 --> 00:53:32.559
I believe in him so much.
00:53:33.199 --> 00:53:40.480
Um and he's you know, he he you live and die by the athletic quarterback uh label.
00:53:40.800 --> 00:53:51.760
And I think the thing about him that people don't realize, but I remember, you know, when he showed up, the thing they said in training camp very early is they were like, more than anything else, they were like, he's fast, he's quick.
00:53:51.840 --> 00:53:55.280
But they were like, this dude is smart.
00:53:55.519 --> 00:53:56.239
Yeah, he's smart.
00:53:56.400 --> 00:53:57.360
He's really smart.
00:53:57.599 --> 00:53:58.159
He's very smart.
00:53:58.320 --> 00:53:59.119
And that's a big deal.
00:53:59.360 --> 00:54:00.800
So I feel very good about him.
00:54:00.880 --> 00:54:02.480
Our offensive line's a big question mark.
00:54:02.559 --> 00:54:04.239
That's that's the the biggest question mark of the season.
00:54:04.320 --> 00:54:05.519
And our secondary.
00:54:06.079 --> 00:54:08.000
Don't we got people walking by our tailgate?
00:54:08.079 --> 00:54:08.639
They're curious.
00:54:08.880 --> 00:54:09.360
You want a hot dog?
00:54:09.599 --> 00:54:10.400
You want a hot dog?
00:54:10.719 --> 00:54:15.280
Okay, over and come get a hot dog! We got some people walking up to our tailgate.
00:54:15.519 --> 00:54:18.159
That's when you know you have a good tailgate when people are coming up and have a dog.
00:54:19.599 --> 00:54:20.960
It's called tailgate therapy.
00:54:21.039 --> 00:54:24.559
I talked to comedians who are fans of diehard fans of cursed teams.
00:54:24.719 --> 00:54:26.400
So we're talking about the Washington Commanders today.
00:54:26.559 --> 00:54:27.039
Oh, it's good.
00:54:27.760 --> 00:54:29.199
Are you sports are you sports people?
00:54:30.079 --> 00:54:30.480
Sports people?

Thanks for coming to our tailgate.
00:54:33.440 --> 00:54:33.840

00:54:35.119 --> 00:54:38.159
And that was You get a glizzy.

Well, I got a I got one more segment for you.
00:54:43.039 --> 00:54:43.599
You ready?
00:54:43.840 --> 00:54:44.639
I'm ready for it.
00:54:44.880 --> 00:54:46.639
Okay, this is called You Like That?
00:54:47.360 --> 00:54:48.239

You like that! You like that!
00:54:52.079 --> 00:54:52.559
Of course.
00:54:52.800 --> 00:54:53.039
Okay.
00:54:53.199 --> 00:54:54.880
I mean you looked at me like I was.
00:54:55.440 --> 00:54:58.719
Well, it was I think it was the You were pulling back your hair and I was trying to.
00:54:59.119 --> 00:54:59.920
I'm sorry, I was I'm hot.
00:55:00.159 --> 00:55:00.400
I'm hot.
00:55:00.480 --> 00:55:01.760
I'm pulling back my hair because I'm holding it.
00:55:02.159 --> 00:55:02.559
Is it bald?
00:55:03.039 --> 00:55:03.440
What's the bald?
00:55:03.840 --> 00:55:04.239
No, sorry.
00:55:04.320 --> 00:55:05.360
I'm wow, thank you.
00:55:05.519 --> 00:55:07.599
I was just really using like all character work here.
00:55:07.679 --> 00:55:14.880
No, by the way, guys, I am in a full I'm in a half the half of my body is in a suit because you know, I'm a I'm a sports analyst.
00:55:15.119 --> 00:55:18.320
Um, and so I'm sweating my dick off, but uh no.
00:55:18.480 --> 00:55:24.800
That was uh named you like that as Kirk Cousins is legendary Yell.
00:55:25.360 --> 00:55:28.880
Um when we all realize what a dork he is, Kirk Cousins.
00:55:29.199 --> 00:55:32.400
Kirk Coins, for those who uh enjoyed him in Atlanta.
00:55:32.800 --> 00:55:47.360
My favorite Kirk Cousins one, and I think it's the lesser played one, but if you go back to his first real season behind behind there, when he was mic'd up for a game, and he throws a touchdown to I want to say Terry.
00:55:48.000 --> 00:55:50.719
Might be uh pretty We're talking commanders?
00:55:50.880 --> 00:55:58.400
Yeah, okay he throws it to somebody and he goes running up to them and he goes, I'll never forget it's my it's to me.
00:55:58.480 --> 00:56:00.159
This is my it's better than you like that.
00:56:00.239 --> 00:56:04.559
It's he goes, What a baller! What a baller! You guys are the best.
00:56:05.599 --> 00:56:10.000
And that one made me laugh so hard, and I say that all the time to my wife.
00:56:10.320 --> 00:56:10.880
What a baller.
00:56:11.039 --> 00:56:12.559
What a baller, you guys are the best.
00:56:12.960 --> 00:56:15.039
I like I like it, but you know what?
00:56:15.119 --> 00:56:18.000
I think the reason why I like you like that is because it's it's less expected.
00:56:18.079 --> 00:56:22.880
Because he's he's very much like, dang it, no cursing, got gosh, dang it.
00:56:23.280 --> 00:56:30.159
He is the most he is the most genuine outside of Tebow, like that kind of thing.
00:56:30.320 --> 00:56:32.960
Which I actually don't think Tebow's that genuine, but we I we don't have time.
00:56:33.199 --> 00:56:34.159
Tebow's the most genuine.
00:56:34.239 --> 00:56:34.800
I mean, we don't have time.
00:56:35.039 --> 00:56:36.480
Tebow lives that life, my friend.
00:56:36.639 --> 00:56:38.000
He might live it, but I think he put it on.
00:56:38.079 --> 00:56:39.840
I think Kirk, I think it's in Kirk's body.
00:56:40.000 --> 00:56:41.119
Oh, get me started on Tebow.
00:56:41.199 --> 00:56:41.840
It's gonna take us too long.
00:56:42.159 --> 00:56:42.480
It's too long.
00:56:42.559 --> 00:56:42.960
That's another pop.
00:56:43.119 --> 00:56:43.440
We'll get you back.
00:56:43.920 --> 00:56:44.960
You have a college team?
00:56:45.280 --> 00:56:45.599
No.
00:56:45.840 --> 00:56:46.000
Okay.
00:56:46.159 --> 00:56:46.880
I was like, we can't do that.
00:56:47.119 --> 00:56:47.519
I'm too dumb.
00:56:47.599 --> 00:56:48.559
I'm too invested in DC's product.
00:56:48.719 --> 00:56:49.679
No, you got because you're in the DMV.
00:56:49.760 --> 00:56:50.320
You got too much going on.
00:56:51.440 --> 00:56:53.039
Well, you like that as my favorite.
00:56:53.119 --> 00:56:56.000
I think my favorites when uh Kirk goes I keep doing this with my hair, yeah.
00:56:56.239 --> 00:56:56.639
Yeah, right?
00:56:56.719 --> 00:56:57.679
It was confusing when you did that.
00:56:57.760 --> 00:57:00.159
I was like, you know what?
00:57:00.320 --> 00:57:05.199
Because I also noticed too, it's because I'm used to putting my I'm used to uh putting my hands through my hair.
00:57:05.280 --> 00:57:08.000
Uh huh, you know, and I can't do it because I have my head headset on.
00:57:08.239 --> 00:57:08.719
Sure.
00:57:09.119 --> 00:57:15.679
Anyway, the point is I love it when Kirk Go chains is Kirkco Chains and he goes hard in the paint and he yells.
00:57:15.760 --> 00:57:18.559
I like it when I'm like, oh wow, there's because it also there's this thing.
00:57:18.639 --> 00:57:22.079
I'm like, inside of Kirk Cousins, there's that dog.
00:57:22.400 --> 00:57:24.079
Well, and and no, and I love that.
00:57:24.159 --> 00:57:30.079
I mean, I I there's a lot about Kirk Cousins I love and And I'm really happy he got to be a commander for you guys.
00:57:30.320 --> 00:57:34.159
Even though I know that it came on the heels of RG3 and like all this kind of stuff and the bats over that.
00:57:34.559 --> 00:57:36.159
I couldn't have better memories of Kirk Cousins.
00:57:36.239 --> 00:57:39.360
We loved Kirk Cousins, he was he's such a special player.
00:57:39.519 --> 00:57:41.440
I love that his career, you know.
00:57:41.599 --> 00:57:48.480
We famously DC sports have been so bad for so long that there was a period where we kind of would root for people to leave.
00:57:48.639 --> 00:57:51.039
Like if we really loved a player, we'd be like, get out of here.
00:57:51.280 --> 00:57:51.519
Sure.
00:57:51.679 --> 00:57:55.440
And like for Kirk it was almost that way where it was like, go have a great career.
00:57:55.679 --> 00:57:57.360
Like you deserve better than to be with us.
00:57:57.440 --> 00:57:58.960
And I'm so happy he's gotten to have the career.
00:57:59.280 --> 00:58:05.840
Kind of like in baseball when they're um what do they call it with the when you're you're not homegrown talent.
00:58:05.920 --> 00:58:09.920
You know what I'm talking about, you know where they in in in in soccer and football, they do it too, where they they're basically.
00:58:10.079 --> 00:58:11.199
If somebody plays in one place the whole time.
00:58:11.440 --> 00:58:12.239
Would you say like farm?
00:58:12.480 --> 00:58:13.039
Farm team.
00:58:13.199 --> 00:58:17.360
Oh you almost like cre you almost made yourself a farm team without being a farm team.
00:58:17.760 --> 00:58:24.159
Like, no, truly, like we would just lose like the amount of I mean the entire NFL's coaching staff came from us.
00:58:24.400 --> 00:58:28.960
Uh we're responsible for half the coaches in the NFL came out of the commanders.
00:58:29.280 --> 00:58:31.199
McVeigh, Shanahan, everybody.
00:58:31.360 --> 00:58:32.320
Everybody came through us.
00:58:32.400 --> 00:58:33.039
Yeah.
00:58:33.199 --> 00:58:36.079
Um, we just are responsible for so many of the great coaches.
00:58:36.159 --> 00:58:37.360
We we Which that should be no.
00:58:37.599 --> 00:58:39.760
I wish people would, I wish the like the layman would be.
00:58:39.920 --> 00:58:42.400
They remind they remind us of it all the time.
00:58:42.880 --> 00:58:43.760
By winning?
00:58:44.000 --> 00:58:48.480
Well, just all every time they're like, check out all the coaches that came, do the computer.
00:58:48.880 --> 00:58:49.280
Right, right, right.
00:58:50.159 --> 00:58:50.960
Uh Mike McDaniel.
00:58:51.119 --> 00:58:51.599
I mean, everybody.
00:58:51.920 --> 00:58:53.679
And then you don't, and then like they're not still on your team, right?
00:58:53.920 --> 00:58:56.719
And then it was like, and then we stuck with Jim Zord.
00:58:57.039 --> 00:59:01.920
Look at all these hot people you dated that have gone on to date other hot people.
00:59:02.239 --> 00:59:02.880
Hotter people.
00:59:03.039 --> 00:59:04.639
Um, okay, so wait, let's go back to the game.
00:59:04.719 --> 00:59:05.679
This is called You Like That.
00:59:05.920 --> 00:59:06.320
Yep.
00:59:06.480 --> 00:59:11.760
And so what I'm gonna say is I'm gonna see a situation or player, and then I want you to tell me if you if you like that.
00:59:12.960 --> 00:59:15.440
How long is this until this is annoying?
00:59:16.079 --> 00:59:17.760
I would like it if you did it.
00:59:18.000 --> 00:59:19.599
It's do you wait, okay.
00:59:19.679 --> 00:59:20.719
How do you direct me?
00:59:20.880 --> 00:59:21.679
You like that?
00:59:21.920 --> 00:59:22.480
You like that?
00:59:22.719 --> 00:59:23.280
Yeah, you gotta go.
00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:25.679
It's it's it's You like that! It's super nasal and nerdy.
00:59:25.920 --> 00:59:26.159
Should I run?
00:59:26.639 --> 00:59:27.840
You're making it sound too cool.
00:59:28.159 --> 00:59:30.800
Okay, well, I think Kirk's thing was it was you like that.
00:59:30.960 --> 00:59:34.400
Yeah, but it like that because he said it, he said it after a win.
00:59:34.800 --> 00:59:35.599
Huge comeback win.
00:59:35.920 --> 00:59:40.320
It was a huge comeback win, and he said it to the press.
00:59:41.199 --> 00:59:43.280
In a walk by like a drive-by.
00:59:43.760 --> 00:59:44.960
Yeah, like a walk by.
00:59:45.360 --> 00:59:53.039
Like, and it was this like it was so but that was the thing about Kirk Cousins that's so special, is he's so nerdy but lovable.
00:59:53.119 --> 00:59:58.639
Like it was such a he was trying to be cool and it was so endearing.
00:59:59.440 --> 01:00:00.320
He had me fooled.
01:00:00.400 --> 01:00:01.519
I thought he was pretty cool in that moment.
01:00:01.679 --> 01:00:02.880
Ah, I mean I said you like that.
01:00:03.280 --> 01:00:06.559
Because he was just so pumped up because it's also like so genuine.
01:00:06.800 --> 01:00:08.480
I mean, again, what a baller.
01:00:08.639 --> 01:00:09.679
What a baller What a baller.
01:00:10.239 --> 01:00:11.119
You guys are the best.
01:00:11.280 --> 01:00:12.159
You like that!
01:00:12.480 --> 01:00:13.280
You like that!
01:00:13.599 --> 01:00:14.639
Okay, I'm gonna try to do this.
01:00:14.719 --> 01:00:15.920
I'm gonna try to say it in the right way.
01:00:16.000 --> 01:00:19.199
Okay, so alright, so you got the game though?
01:00:19.519 --> 01:00:20.159
I get the game.
01:00:20.320 --> 01:00:20.639
Okay, cool.
01:00:20.880 --> 01:00:25.679
So new OC David Blau, new DC Durante Jones.
01:00:26.559 --> 01:00:27.519
You like that?
01:00:27.840 --> 01:00:29.519
Uh I do like that.
01:00:29.679 --> 01:00:31.760
I think that um I think Was that good?
01:00:31.920 --> 01:00:33.519
It was it was uh Was that better?
01:00:33.599 --> 01:00:34.159
It was great, it was great.
01:00:34.239 --> 01:00:34.719
You're doing great.
01:00:34.880 --> 01:00:35.119
Thank you.
01:00:35.280 --> 01:00:41.119
Um I think that um you know, Kingsbury was a tough loss, and I think for Blau it's a little bit tougher.
01:00:41.199 --> 01:00:46.719
I think Jerry Witt was junior was a debacle last year, so it's a lot easier uh on that side of the ball.
01:00:46.960 --> 01:00:47.679
Kingsbury's good.
01:00:47.920 --> 01:00:56.000
Kingsbury, it hurt to lose, but Blau they say is great, but you know, they're not obviously they're not gonna hire somebody and then be like, they say he's terrible.
01:00:56.239 --> 01:01:02.480
Uh so it's like everybody's like, yeah, someone last night was like, was like, they say he's like a G offensive genius.
01:01:02.559 --> 01:01:06.800
And I'm like, well, they're not gonna say like they say he's really confused by how to play football.
01:01:06.960 --> 01:01:08.559
Like they're gonna tell us he's great.
01:01:08.719 --> 01:01:17.679
We'll find out, but um, I do think I I I thought Kingsbury was a little tough, but our on the defensive side was a no-brainer, and uh I'm looking forward to seeing what they can do.
01:01:17.920 --> 01:01:18.159
Okay.
01:01:18.320 --> 01:01:19.760
All right, so you like it?
01:01:19.920 --> 01:01:20.400
Yeah.
01:01:20.639 --> 01:01:23.199
Six oldest, you have the sixth oldest team.
01:01:23.360 --> 01:01:24.000
You like that!
01:01:24.400 --> 01:01:25.360
I don't think that's fair.
01:01:25.519 --> 01:01:27.039
We're right in the pack with everybody else.
01:01:27.360 --> 01:01:28.800
That's really a last season thing.
01:01:28.880 --> 01:01:29.360
How dare you?
01:01:29.440 --> 01:01:29.840
I don't like it.
01:01:30.079 --> 01:01:30.480
I looked it up.
01:01:30.559 --> 01:01:30.960
It says six.
01:01:31.119 --> 01:01:31.519
I don't think it's a big one.
01:01:31.679 --> 01:01:33.679
I know we are, but we are not really.
01:01:34.000 --> 01:01:35.039
It's still, but it still is.
01:01:35.119 --> 01:01:35.440
You can't.
01:01:35.679 --> 01:01:37.360
We're right in the middle of the way.
01:01:37.519 --> 01:01:37.920
Math is math.
01:01:38.639 --> 01:01:40.000
Math is math one year.
01:01:40.400 --> 01:01:40.719
Still math.
01:01:40.800 --> 01:01:41.039
You know what?
01:01:41.119 --> 01:01:41.280
Let me.
01:01:41.519 --> 01:01:42.480
We just released a tackle.
01:01:42.559 --> 01:01:43.920
I bet we actually moved up the other day.
01:01:44.079 --> 01:01:44.480
You know what?
01:01:44.719 --> 01:01:45.760
We released uh what's his name?
01:01:45.920 --> 01:01:46.480
Pump Bridge.
01:01:46.880 --> 01:01:49.199
Oh, what uh wait, from the Chiefs?
01:01:49.440 --> 01:01:50.000
Former Chiefs?
01:01:50.239 --> 01:01:50.400
Yeah.
01:01:50.719 --> 01:01:51.760
Why'd you guys release him?
01:01:52.000 --> 01:01:52.400
Injured?
01:01:52.559 --> 01:01:53.679
I believe he wasn't doing great.
01:01:53.840 --> 01:01:54.880
Yeah, he wasn't that great.
01:01:55.119 --> 01:01:55.760
Yeah, I know.
01:01:55.840 --> 01:01:58.000
I'm I'm glad I'm glad he went somewhere else.
01:01:58.320 --> 01:01:59.199
Glad you got him off your hands.
01:01:59.440 --> 01:01:59.920
So sorry.
01:02:00.000 --> 01:02:00.159
Okay.
01:02:00.239 --> 01:02:01.119
Uh no, you know what I mean.
01:02:01.280 --> 01:02:02.800
But that might have taken our age down.
01:02:03.440 --> 01:02:04.800
Well, suck on that.
01:02:05.360 --> 01:02:06.000
5.5.
01:02:06.239 --> 01:02:08.079
Okay, Jaden Daniels comeback year.
01:02:08.239 --> 01:02:08.800
You like that?
01:02:09.039 --> 01:02:10.079
Obviously, you like that.
01:02:10.239 --> 01:02:10.559
Yeah.
01:02:10.800 --> 01:02:11.760
Major Tutty.
01:02:11.920 --> 01:02:12.480
You like that?
01:02:12.639 --> 01:02:13.679
Love Major Tutty.
01:02:13.760 --> 01:02:15.119
Major Tutty's grown on me a lot.
01:02:15.199 --> 01:02:16.639
Major Tutty's our mascot.
01:02:16.719 --> 01:02:18.400
He is a corporal that's a pig.
01:02:18.639 --> 01:02:23.280
And uh and um I'm fucking done.
01:02:23.360 --> 01:02:24.159
He's a corporal.
01:02:24.639 --> 01:02:25.119
I looked him up.
01:02:25.440 --> 01:02:38.400
Honestly, like, I was sort of out on it, and Elena, our producer, was like, so if I I'm like really high, I'm high on Major Tutty, and I was like, I don't know, but but now I've after looking at him a couple of times Major Tutty will grow on you.
01:02:38.559 --> 01:02:38.800
That's fun.
01:02:38.960 --> 01:02:39.840
Major Tutty will grow on you.
01:02:40.480 --> 01:02:41.119
It's kind of fun.
01:02:41.280 --> 01:02:44.079
He kind of emerged, and we all were like, excuse me.
01:02:44.719 --> 01:02:45.519
Wait, when did he emerge?
01:02:45.599 --> 01:02:46.880
Because it's like it's pretty recent.
01:02:47.199 --> 01:02:51.039
I I want to say in the last couple years, Major Tutty made his arrival.
01:02:51.280 --> 01:02:56.400
And, you know, you're trying to hit a fan base with a new mascot's a tough, uh a tough mountain to climb.
01:02:56.480 --> 01:02:58.960
Uh well when you already have had three names, also tough.
01:02:59.760 --> 01:03:03.519
You just inevitably when you're like, check out the new animal that we like.
01:03:03.760 --> 01:03:06.559
It's tough on grown men, but Major Tutty's grown on me a lot.
01:03:06.639 --> 01:03:07.119
I like Major Tutty.
01:03:07.360 --> 01:03:08.239
But did you 2023?
01:03:08.320 --> 01:03:08.480
Yeah.
01:03:08.719 --> 01:03:09.199
Well, it's new.
01:03:09.440 --> 01:03:09.840
I told you.
01:03:10.079 --> 01:03:12.400
But it is it because that's a long that's a short.
01:03:12.719 --> 01:03:13.440
So we've we've grown.
01:03:13.519 --> 01:03:14.079
We've grown a lot.
01:03:14.400 --> 01:03:17.519
Did you not have uh a mascot with the commanders?
01:03:17.760 --> 01:03:20.400
It was uh sorry.
01:03:20.559 --> 01:03:21.599
Is this gonna be another one?
01:03:21.760 --> 01:03:24.559
Well we had like we had like Native American stuff for years.
01:03:24.800 --> 01:03:25.920
No, of course I know that.
01:03:26.239 --> 01:03:26.960
So then that went away.
01:03:27.039 --> 01:03:28.320
So we didn't really have a mascot.
01:03:28.400 --> 01:03:29.280
Oh, so then that's because that's the one.
01:03:30.719 --> 01:03:31.760
So we didn't have a mascot then.
01:03:31.920 --> 01:03:32.320
You just wasn't.
01:03:32.480 --> 01:03:36.559
Then we become the commanders, and then so then it was like, all right, what's the commander's mascot?
01:03:36.719 --> 01:03:38.000
We can't go back to Native Americans.
01:03:38.159 --> 01:03:38.719
No, of course not.
01:03:38.800 --> 01:03:39.840
So then it's like, well, what do you do?
01:03:39.920 --> 01:03:41.119
So Major Tuddy's pretty recent.
01:03:41.280 --> 01:03:41.760
Okay, okay.
01:03:41.920 --> 01:03:45.280
Because I didn't know if it was like not to bring up Alabama again, but it's like the Crimson Tide.
01:03:45.440 --> 01:03:47.840
They're the Crimson Tide, but they're also the el they also have an elephant.
01:03:48.000 --> 01:03:49.360
So there's two things happening at the same time.
01:03:49.599 --> 01:03:56.159
Yeah, well the well, the pig thing, so the hogs have really, we've really that a lot of teams wanted us to go with a pig name as our team name.
01:03:56.320 --> 01:03:56.800
I kind of like it.
01:03:57.039 --> 01:03:58.000
Because we love the hog thing.
01:03:58.159 --> 01:04:00.719
Well, it'd be great if you guys were just the commanders.
01:04:01.039 --> 01:04:01.840
Just the hogats in general.
01:04:02.559 --> 01:04:04.320
I love the commanders, I'm into the commanders.
01:04:04.480 --> 01:04:06.880
They did a year-long, what do you want the name to be?
01:04:07.039 --> 01:04:07.840
Vote on it thing.
01:04:08.079 --> 01:04:10.400
And commanders never appeared on the list one time.
01:04:10.480 --> 01:04:11.280
Don't get me started.
01:04:11.519 --> 01:04:12.079
Did I have the list?
01:04:12.239 --> 01:04:14.880
No, I I had at one point a list of all the names, and they were bad.
01:04:15.039 --> 01:04:16.159
The presidents, that was one of them.
01:04:16.320 --> 01:04:16.400
Yeah.
01:04:16.639 --> 01:04:17.199
The Armada.
01:04:17.599 --> 01:04:18.079
The Armada.
01:04:18.639 --> 01:04:22.079
But there were some good ones also floating around in there, particularly if you know the pig context.
01:04:22.159 --> 01:04:24.320
I imagine there were some pig names that you were like, why?
01:04:24.480 --> 01:04:27.119
But now you would know that the pigs actually really like the pigs.
01:04:27.360 --> 01:04:28.159
Pigs mean a lot to us.
01:04:28.239 --> 01:04:29.119
But commanders are great.
01:04:29.280 --> 01:04:31.679
Hey, let me tell you something about having a winning season.
01:04:31.840 --> 01:04:33.679
Names sound really good when you win.
01:04:33.840 --> 01:04:36.000
We all were like commanders, and then we had that winning season.
01:04:36.159 --> 01:04:38.880
We all were like left hand up.
01:04:39.119 --> 01:04:40.159
Yeah, let's go.
01:04:40.320 --> 01:04:41.280
Left hand up.
01:04:41.519 --> 01:04:43.280
Okay, so two more.
01:04:47.360 --> 01:04:48.559
That went over my head.
01:04:48.800 --> 01:04:49.599
Left hand up.
01:04:49.760 --> 01:04:51.360
There was a really bad rap song made.
01:04:51.519 --> 01:04:56.639
And by really bad, I mean legendarily great, but it was left hand up.
01:04:56.800 --> 01:04:57.519
Who are we?
01:04:57.679 --> 01:04:58.960
The commanders.
01:04:59.360 --> 01:05:01.519
And that really caught a life of its own.
01:05:02.639 --> 01:05:03.519
Do you guys play the other games?
01:05:03.760 --> 01:05:04.159
You have to, right?
01:05:04.320 --> 01:05:04.639
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:05:04.800 --> 01:05:06.000
Left hand up, who are we the commanders?
01:05:06.320 --> 01:05:07.280
You'll see left hand up a lot.
01:05:07.360 --> 01:05:07.840
I'm gonna follow.
01:05:08.000 --> 01:05:09.679
We should watch a game together because now I now I'm invested.
01:05:09.840 --> 01:05:10.559
Oh, you're welcome to come watch.
01:05:10.880 --> 01:05:12.079
You've invested you've got me.
01:05:12.400 --> 01:05:15.519
There's no better fan there's no better fan base on Earth than DC Sports fan base.
01:05:15.760 --> 01:05:16.320
Everybody should join.
01:05:16.480 --> 01:05:16.639
Okay.
01:05:16.880 --> 01:05:17.440
If they want to join.
01:05:17.679 --> 01:05:18.800
Dan Quinn's backward hat.
01:05:19.039 --> 01:05:19.679
You like that?
01:05:19.840 --> 01:05:20.239
Love it.
01:05:20.400 --> 01:05:20.639
Love it.
01:05:20.800 --> 01:05:22.239
Love everything Dan Quinn's about.
01:05:22.400 --> 01:05:25.119
I want to just go over a couple affirmations since the game's tomorrow.
01:05:25.360 --> 01:05:25.599
Sure.
01:05:25.760 --> 01:05:27.119
And I do you mind repeating after me?
01:05:27.280 --> 01:05:28.320
Do you feel like doing some affirmations?
01:05:28.480 --> 01:05:29.039
I love affirmations.
01:05:29.199 --> 01:05:30.000
Okay, cool.
01:05:30.239 --> 01:05:31.039
Alright, ready?
01:05:31.119 --> 01:05:31.440
Yep.
01:05:31.599 --> 01:05:32.239
I am worthy.
01:05:32.480 --> 01:05:33.280
I am worthy.
01:05:33.519 --> 01:05:34.719
I can have a winning team.
01:05:34.960 --> 01:05:36.400
I can have a winning team in Had.
01:05:38.639 --> 01:05:40.559
That's like one of those passive aggressions.
01:05:40.719 --> 01:05:41.039
How dare you?
01:05:41.119 --> 01:05:42.079
That's like one of those passive aggressions.
01:05:42.320 --> 01:05:43.039
It's like we've won before.
01:05:43.280 --> 01:05:44.239
We've had winning seasons.
01:05:44.400 --> 01:05:46.000
We two years ago made the NFC championship.
01:05:46.800 --> 01:05:47.679
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
01:05:47.760 --> 01:05:48.079
Damn.
01:05:48.239 --> 01:05:48.719
All right.
01:05:48.960 --> 01:05:49.760
I believe.
01:05:49.920 --> 01:05:51.360
You know what this actually reminds me of?
01:05:51.440 --> 01:05:52.639
Uh the I believe.
01:05:52.880 --> 01:05:54.000
I believe that we will win.
01:05:54.159 --> 01:05:55.519
The min the US mints.
01:05:55.920 --> 01:05:56.960
I believe that we will I love it.
01:05:57.199 --> 01:05:58.400
I don't like that chant.
01:05:58.480 --> 01:05:59.519
It's so long.
01:06:00.159 --> 01:06:01.119
Welcome to Soccer Chance.
01:06:01.679 --> 01:06:03.039
They're singing full ballads in it.
01:06:04.079 --> 01:06:04.480
Nobody knows what you're doing.
01:06:04.719 --> 01:06:06.880
No, but England, no, England's got it going.
01:06:07.599 --> 01:06:08.480
That's what soccer is.
01:06:08.559 --> 01:06:09.199
It's chance.
01:06:09.440 --> 01:06:09.679
Okay.
01:06:09.840 --> 01:06:13.440
I believe that I can have an owner that won't end up being racist.
01:06:13.760 --> 01:06:15.280
I believe I have an owner that won't end up being racist.
01:06:15.440 --> 01:06:16.079
I believe that free too.
01:06:16.159 --> 01:06:17.280
Jaden Daniels will have a bounce back year.
01:06:17.440 --> 01:06:19.119
Jane Daniels will have a bounce back year.
01:06:19.519 --> 01:06:26.559
I am no longer allowing Dan Snyder to control my emotions.
01:06:27.039 --> 01:06:29.840
I am no longer allowing Dan Snyder to control my emotions.
01:06:37.039 --> 01:06:37.440
Sure.
01:06:38.639 --> 01:06:42.719
Well, actually, do you speak of, we have a photo of Dan Snyder.
01:06:43.440 --> 01:06:45.119
Would you like to spit on him?
01:06:46.239 --> 01:06:47.440
Or whatever you want to do.
01:06:48.000 --> 01:06:48.639
You could rip it.
01:06:51.280 --> 01:06:51.440
Okay.
01:06:52.800 --> 01:07:01.519
Let's go! Let's go! That's cardstock, baby! Come on! Come on! How many more times?
01:07:03.840 --> 01:07:04.639
Are you just gonna hand it to me?
01:07:04.719 --> 01:07:05.360
I don't want to touch him.
01:07:06.400 --> 01:07:07.840
Yeah, I don't want to touch his fucking face.
01:07:08.480 --> 01:07:10.719
Unfortunately, you saying that will not stop him from touching you.
01:07:11.039 --> 01:07:11.760
Oh God.
01:07:11.840 --> 01:07:12.480
You know what?
01:07:12.639 --> 01:07:13.840
And just when I thought.
01:07:14.880 --> 01:07:15.599
That's disgusting.
01:07:16.000 --> 01:07:16.400
Quote me.
01:07:16.559 --> 01:07:16.960
Bad guy.
01:07:17.119 --> 01:07:17.280
Yeah.
01:07:17.440 --> 01:07:19.920
Um, okay, so I want you to practice your affirmations.
01:07:20.159 --> 01:07:20.320
Okay.
01:07:20.480 --> 01:07:22.000
Okay, I want you to practice your exposures.
01:07:22.239 --> 01:07:22.480
Sure.
01:07:22.719 --> 01:07:25.280
Because the more you practice them, the less they feel like they hold weight.
01:07:25.519 --> 01:07:26.800
And the less that they are true.
01:07:27.119 --> 01:07:27.280
Right?
01:07:27.679 --> 01:07:29.599
That's I I believe I actually do believe that.
01:07:29.760 --> 01:07:32.000
Um I believe positive thinking gets you far.
01:07:32.239 --> 01:07:32.800
It does.
01:07:33.039 --> 01:07:34.719
Um, and you have to in sports.
01:07:34.800 --> 01:07:40.079
Um, okay, so before you go, um I want you to well, first of all, I do think you're fine.
01:07:40.159 --> 01:07:42.159
I think you're gonna be f I actually think you're fine emotionally.
01:07:42.239 --> 01:07:47.679
I also think, not that you're you you need my uh opinion on this, but I do think you're fine.
01:07:47.920 --> 01:07:52.079
And I do think that you I think the commanders are up.
01:07:52.159 --> 01:07:52.800
I'd be honest.
01:07:52.880 --> 01:07:58.559
I think the commanders are gonna be sneaky this year in a way that I'm not saying they're gonna go all the way.
01:07:58.800 --> 01:08:04.000
I don't believe that, but I I think that they're not gonna be the I don't think they're gonna be fourth in the NFC East.
01:08:04.320 --> 01:08:11.519
Yeah, it's it again, it's a mystery season, and and that's the way we're all going into it, but like there's a lot to there's a lot to be excited about.
01:08:12.079 --> 01:08:13.360
There's uh There is.
01:08:14.800 --> 01:08:15.360
We we'll see.
01:08:15.440 --> 01:08:17.920
We also had a look, it's been a weird offseason.
01:08:18.720 --> 01:08:20.159
We had a really weird training camp.
01:08:20.319 --> 01:08:22.399
So it's like Wait, what happened to training camp?
01:08:23.119 --> 01:08:26.479
Um we What's going down in training camp?
01:08:26.560 --> 01:08:27.279
Are people fucking?
01:08:27.600 --> 01:08:41.279
No, we just had a um we had a training camp where it started great and everything was good, and then Nikki don't know her name, but she's one of our bloggers, basically tweeted out of nowhere just like this offensive line can't stop anything.
01:08:41.600 --> 01:08:45.760
And that kind of set off the fan base of like, excuse me.
01:08:46.159 --> 01:08:48.079
And it was like our entire team was injured.
01:08:48.159 --> 01:08:50.399
There was a period where it was like 20 players were like out.
01:08:50.640 --> 01:08:55.600
Well, that was a lot, so we were like, and so we all were like, okay, we can't block anything.
01:08:55.680 --> 01:09:03.279
It was so there was like a real doom period, and then and we lost particularly our last preseason game, was like just in humiliation.
01:09:03.520 --> 01:09:04.399
I don't believe in preseason.
01:09:05.279 --> 01:09:07.520
That's the thing, it's like but that's the whole thing is it doesn't matter.
01:09:07.760 --> 01:09:12.479
No one's not everyone's playing, nobody cares, and then everybody's healthy now.
01:09:12.880 --> 01:09:16.479
Everybody's healthy, like there was a whole thing where they were like, why aren't we getting another tackle?
01:09:16.560 --> 01:09:18.640
The the the Reddit was like, why aren't we getting another tackle?
01:09:18.720 --> 01:09:22.239
We need another tackle, we need another center, and then it was like, everybody's healthy.
01:09:22.479 --> 01:09:23.439
Mine is tunsil.
01:09:23.600 --> 01:09:24.159
Everybody's healthy.
01:09:24.319 --> 01:09:24.880
We're gonna be okay.
01:09:25.039 --> 01:09:26.720
Yeah, I think I have a couple players on here that are injured.
01:09:26.800 --> 01:09:27.439
Let me tell you real quick.
01:09:28.000 --> 01:09:29.039
It's really just tunsil.
01:09:29.199 --> 01:09:30.319
Is it just tunsil?
01:09:30.720 --> 01:09:31.359
Oh, you're right.
01:09:31.520 --> 01:09:32.640
Torn triceps.
01:09:32.720 --> 01:09:32.880
Yeah.
01:09:32.960 --> 01:09:34.479
But you know who you have that I'm really jealous of?
01:09:34.560 --> 01:09:35.600
And I I I miss him.
01:09:35.680 --> 01:09:37.439
And I want you to I want you to take good care of him.
01:09:37.520 --> 01:09:40.560
And he's a fun player to have is Leo Chanel.
01:09:40.720 --> 01:09:42.000
Oh, I'm very excited about Chanel.
01:09:42.159 --> 01:09:45.680
Because I remember when he like got off the plane, they were like, What do you want to do?
01:09:45.760 --> 01:09:47.199
And he was like, I just want to fucking hit somebody.
01:09:47.279 --> 01:09:47.600
Yeah, yeah.
01:09:47.760 --> 01:09:49.279
And I'm like, that's the kind of guy I want on my team.
01:09:49.520 --> 01:09:52.800
We have an amazing-just wanna fucking hit any, and he meant it in a football way.
01:09:53.039 --> 01:09:53.359
Like, you know?
01:09:53.439 --> 01:09:53.680
Oh, yeah.
01:09:54.000 --> 01:09:54.800
I just want to fucking hit somebody.
01:09:55.359 --> 01:09:59.760
We've got a we've got we got some dogs on the edge and uh an outside linebacker area.
01:09:59.840 --> 01:10:00.239
We got some.
01:10:00.560 --> 01:10:02.079
Well, you got you got some dogs and you got some hogs.
01:10:02.239 --> 01:10:04.079
We got some dogs a little concerned about our secondary.
01:10:04.239 --> 01:10:05.039
Dogs up front.
01:10:06.479 --> 01:10:07.920
Sneak in the stuff you're worried about.
01:10:08.079 --> 01:10:08.479
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:10:08.720 --> 01:10:10.479
Absolute firepower up front.
01:10:10.640 --> 01:10:12.319
Secondary does seem to be a concern.
01:10:12.560 --> 01:10:14.800
Uh we got some dogs at the quarterback.
01:10:14.880 --> 01:10:15.840
Not sure about our offensive line.
01:10:16.000 --> 01:10:17.520
But we got a dog in Jaden Daniels.
01:10:21.119 --> 01:10:22.319
We uh we're fine.
01:10:22.640 --> 01:10:25.520
Okay, so before you go, yeah, this is uh who had it worse.
01:10:25.600 --> 01:10:26.479
Sorry, who has it worse?
01:10:26.560 --> 01:10:44.239
So I want you, you got a minute, and I want you to tell me uh other than the commanders, and I'm gonna have we're gonna have uh Glizzy Queen over here um time you other than the commanders, I want you to say who which team do you think has it worse than you and why?
01:10:44.399 --> 01:10:45.359
And let me know when you're ready.
01:10:46.560 --> 01:10:46.960
I'm ready.
01:10:48.479 --> 01:10:49.439
Roll tide, let's go.
01:10:50.079 --> 01:10:55.199
Uh there's only one answer to this question to me, and that is the the the Buffalo fans.
01:10:55.439 --> 01:11:00.479
Buffalo fans are the are are obviously the fan base that we all think of and we just feel bad for.
01:11:00.880 --> 01:11:02.720
They've been through absolute hell and back.
01:11:02.880 --> 01:11:10.159
It's a fan base that boy are they really like just a great fan base that's earned a championship and they haven't gotten it.
01:11:10.720 --> 01:11:18.399
And you know, even though we're not supposed to talk about other sports, like I did get the 2019 Nationals, I did get the 2018 caps.
01:11:18.560 --> 01:11:21.359
That city has not had a championship in uh forever.
01:11:21.600 --> 01:11:30.800
You're allowed to talk about the Buffalo the Buffalo Bills fans absolutely if there's any fan base that could get it outside of us, I hope for the Bills fans that it's this year.
01:11:31.199 --> 01:11:33.920
Well, it's not gonna be this year, because if it was any year, it was gonna be last year.
01:11:34.000 --> 01:11:35.279
So I actually don't think it's gonna be this year.
01:11:35.359 --> 01:11:37.359
But I'm not saying it will be.
01:11:37.760 --> 01:11:38.800
But they have Josh Allen.
01:11:38.960 --> 01:11:39.359
Here's the thing.
01:11:39.439 --> 01:11:41.600
You have a Josh Allen, you got a shot.
01:11:42.079 --> 01:11:42.800
You'd think.
01:11:42.960 --> 01:11:44.479
You'd think, but that's why I agree with you.
01:11:44.560 --> 01:11:45.760
I think they do have it worse than you.
01:11:45.920 --> 01:11:46.159
Yeah.
01:11:46.399 --> 01:11:47.760
Thank you for doing that, by the way.
01:11:48.000 --> 01:11:48.640
Did you have more?
01:11:48.800 --> 01:11:49.920
No, that's what that was it.
01:11:50.000 --> 01:11:50.239
That's it.
01:11:50.319 --> 01:11:51.840
I mean, honestly, I think that was a good one.
01:11:51.920 --> 01:11:52.479
No, no, it was great.
01:11:52.560 --> 01:11:52.800
It was great.
01:11:53.279 --> 01:12:04.399
All you have to say is, but you know, all you have to say would be Buffalo Bill is a bit like, and that's why when you were like just because I was like, when you get into I was actually talking to Claude about this on the way here.
01:12:04.640 --> 01:12:06.079
You're talking about Claude as an AI Claude?
01:12:06.239 --> 01:12:08.720
Yeah, Claude and I were having a chat about this on the way here.
01:12:08.960 --> 01:12:11.039
About uh I'm hearing some groans.
01:12:11.199 --> 01:12:12.399
I'm hearing some groans.
01:12:12.640 --> 01:12:13.680
Uh you were doing great.
01:12:13.760 --> 01:12:14.640
You were doing great, Danny.
01:12:14.720 --> 01:12:15.600
Let's go ahead and wrap you up.
01:12:15.760 --> 01:12:20.479
Uh as long as it's not doing anything creative, Claude's very helpful.
01:12:20.640 --> 01:12:22.079
Just don't let it do anything creative.
01:12:22.640 --> 01:12:23.600
It does do math for me.
01:12:23.760 --> 01:12:24.960
It does math for me.
01:12:25.039 --> 01:12:26.399
I'm not gonna it helps me.
01:12:26.560 --> 01:12:27.199
It helps with recipes.
01:12:27.680 --> 01:12:33.359
Don't get me started on the amount of great use we could get out of AI if people stop trying to do it for the dumbest things.
01:12:34.000 --> 01:12:34.319
Yeah.
01:12:34.560 --> 01:12:37.520
It's not for customer service, it's for it's for fucking grids.
01:12:37.920 --> 01:12:42.800
Sometimes, sometimes I need to know how to break down this recipe so I can make it for my girlfriend.
01:12:43.039 --> 01:12:43.520
That's the thing.
01:12:43.600 --> 01:12:45.119
That's what it does well.
01:12:45.359 --> 01:12:59.359
When it it's not for customer service, it's not for art, but yeah, if you need if I'm if I'm driving here and I go, I was like, statistically, what team has it the worst and what city has it the worst?
01:12:59.520 --> 01:13:04.479
And that was the question I have was what city of the of the major four sports has had it the worst?
01:13:04.720 --> 01:13:05.760
And that was the question I asked it.
01:13:06.159 --> 01:13:06.479
No.
01:13:07.279 --> 01:13:09.039
Wait, hold on.
01:13:09.840 --> 01:13:10.960
It's not Cleveland.
01:13:11.680 --> 01:13:12.800
What city has it the worst?
01:13:13.039 --> 01:13:13.600
Of all four sports?
01:13:15.439 --> 01:13:16.319
Okay, of all sports.
01:13:16.399 --> 01:13:17.199
We're not just talking about football.
01:13:17.439 --> 01:13:19.279
Four major sports football, baseball, uh, basketball.
01:13:19.680 --> 01:13:20.399
And it's not Buffalo.
01:13:20.640 --> 01:13:23.760
It's not Buffalo, because they only have two sports, so they only get two seasons a year.
01:13:23.920 --> 01:13:24.880
Other teams, other cities have four.
01:13:25.359 --> 01:13:27.439
Like Atlanta because the Falcons and the Hawks.
01:13:27.920 --> 01:13:31.279
Uh Atlanta have the Braves that won.
01:13:33.760 --> 01:13:34.239
Who is it?
01:13:34.560 --> 01:13:37.359
You see, this is what this is this was a fun on the way here.
01:13:37.680 --> 01:13:38.560
Minneapolis.
01:13:39.520 --> 01:13:40.399
Vikings.
01:13:41.039 --> 01:13:41.600
Twins.
01:13:42.239 --> 01:13:42.560
Oh.
01:13:44.159 --> 01:13:47.680
Vikings, twins, I guess it's wild, wild Timberwolves.
01:13:47.840 --> 01:13:50.720
I guess it's not it's since 1991, the twins.
01:13:51.119 --> 01:13:54.079
I guess maybe for me, it's like because I they're always sort of kind of there.
01:13:56.319 --> 01:13:58.640
That's kind of because they're like kind of like always right there.
01:13:58.880 --> 01:13:59.199
Totally.
01:13:59.359 --> 01:14:07.600
I I it made me think because like when I think, because also just the Hawks and the Falcons have well, I guess the Hawks have been better these days, but like the Hawks and the Falcons have been so bad that I'm like, totally.
01:14:07.840 --> 01:14:12.399
And I think there's something to the every one of your teams sucks, but the Braves are good.
01:14:12.640 --> 01:14:14.079
You ever want to look up stats?
01:14:14.319 --> 01:14:15.920
Well, you can with Claude.
01:14:16.159 --> 01:14:17.760
Claude helps you look up stats.
01:14:18.479 --> 01:14:19.600
Great for stats.
01:14:19.760 --> 01:14:21.119
Uh don't let it near art.
01:14:21.439 --> 01:14:22.560
And we'll be right back to you.
01:14:22.640 --> 01:14:24.960
Uh and there, and they are paying me very good.
01:14:25.119 --> 01:14:27.039
Um and paying you, because I'm giving you kickback, remember?
01:14:27.119 --> 01:14:27.600
Oh, yeah, that's right.
01:14:28.560 --> 01:14:29.039
Um, okay.
01:14:29.119 --> 01:14:30.159
Well, that's what you okay.
01:14:30.239 --> 01:14:36.560
So Bill Buffalo Bills and you found But I statistically the uh the uh Minneapolis was the winner.
01:14:36.800 --> 01:14:37.039
Okay.
01:14:37.119 --> 01:14:40.800
But you feel in your heart it's the if we're going off one one team, one fan base, yeah.
01:14:41.039 --> 01:14:41.199
Bills.
01:14:41.359 --> 01:14:41.840
Yeah, 100%.
01:14:42.159 --> 01:14:43.600
Um okay, this has been awesome.
01:14:43.760 --> 01:14:44.319
You're awesome.
01:14:44.880 --> 01:14:47.520
You've made me fall in love with the commanders.
01:14:47.680 --> 01:14:52.000
Um, and uh I just do you wanna do you wanna plug anything?
01:14:52.079 --> 01:14:53.279

I appreciate that.
01:14:59.119 --> 01:15:00.000
That means the world.
01:15:00.159 --> 01:15:02.640
Um it's a hard color to pull off sometimes, honestly.
01:15:02.880 --> 01:15:03.039
Yeah.
01:15:03.279 --> 01:15:04.800
Well listen, we we do our best.

Um uh you can uh uh Dannyjollis.com, uh I'm on tour at Danny Jolly on social media, the best.
01:15:18.000 --> 01:15:21.920
And most importantly, uh stand-up comedy is like hockey.
01:15:23.600 --> 01:15:24.800
Hockey, I'm gonna stick with hockey.
01:15:25.039 --> 01:15:26.319
Stand-up comedy is like hockey.
01:15:26.479 --> 01:15:29.279
It is fun to watch on TV, but it is so much better in person.
01:15:29.439 --> 01:15:34.720
So please look up your local comedy club, look up the next four comics coming on a weekend.
01:15:34.880 --> 01:15:39.279
Make sure that you can look them up and find ten minutes uninterrupted of stand-up from them.
01:15:39.439 --> 01:15:42.640
No crowd work, no hecklers, ten minutes uninterrupted of material.
01:15:42.800 --> 01:15:45.359
If you can find that, go buy a ticket, go see live stand-up.
01:15:45.520 --> 01:15:48.319
You you don't realize how great it is until you see it and you'll never stop going.
01:15:48.800 --> 01:15:53.439
Fuck yeah! Saving the saving the sport, saving the sport, saving the art.

We have a photo of Dan Snyder.
00:00:02.959 --> 00:00:04.320
Would you like to spit on him?
00:00:04.719 --> 00:00:05.759
Or whatever you want to do.
00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:06.480
You could rip it.
00:00:07.040 --> 00:00:07.440
You could yeah.
00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:08.560
Okay.
00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:11.199
Let's get him! Let's get him.

That's cardstock, baby.

Come on.
00:00:13.839 --> 00:00:14.240
Come on.
00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:15.919
How many more times?
00:00:18.239 --> 00:00:19.039
Are you just gonna hand it to me?
00:00:19.120 --> 00:00:19.760
I don't wanna touch him.
00:00:19.920 --> 00:00:21.519
Yeah, I don't wanna touch his fucking face.
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:24.160
Unfortunately, you saying that will not stop him from touching you.
00:00:24.559 --> 00:00:25.920
Oh god, you know what?
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:29.199
And just when I thought that's disgusting.
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:31.039
Yeah.
00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:52.560
Welcome to Tailgate Therapy.
00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:54.000
This is the Tailgate Therapy podcast.
00:00:54.159 --> 00:00:55.200
It's the very first episode.
00:00:55.359 --> 00:00:56.799
And oh, I didn't know the first one.
00:00:57.039 --> 00:00:57.520
It's the first one.
00:00:57.759 --> 00:00:58.159
I'm honored.
00:00:58.399 --> 00:00:59.840
You should be honored, Danny.
00:00:59.920 --> 00:01:00.880
Um I'm excited.
00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:11.200
Basically, Tailgate Therapy is a pod where I talk to diehard fans of uh, let's say cursed teams.
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:19.280
Cursed teams, cursed franchises, sad teams, teams that are always down bad, can't seem to get up, but the fans come back season after season.
00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:19.920
Of course.
00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:22.480
And um and I wanted to know why.
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:27.040
Uh, because I happen to uh well, uh most of my team uh are winners.
00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:27.680
Cool.
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:29.040
Uh so cool.
00:01:29.359 --> 00:01:30.959
It's not my fault, it's what I was born into.
00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:32.000
I was born into greatness.
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:32.959
Um I went to Alabama.
00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:33.920
Who were your teams?
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:34.640
Alabama.
00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:35.120
Sure.
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:36.560
First of all, roll tide.
00:01:36.879 --> 00:01:37.120
Sorry.
00:01:37.359 --> 00:01:39.200
And uh then I'm a Chiefs fan.
00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:40.000
Which we were bad.
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:40.319
We were bad.
00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:40.799
We sucked.
00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:42.319
I was gonna say you guys were bad for forever.
00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:44.480
We were bad, but we did make but we have made us the promise.
00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:45.120
You made the jump.
00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:47.840
You didn't jump now to to dynasty.
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:51.840
To to to dynasty, and are we gonna catch are we gonna catch Tom Brady?
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:52.560
Yes.
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:54.480
Yeah, I I I don't think you will.
00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:57.840
I think I think it's I don't think you guys are a championship anymore.
00:01:57.920 --> 00:01:59.519
I think you're gonna be a great team for years.
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:02.400
Just I think Mahomes touches the field your playoffs every year.
00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:03.040
Yeah, sure.
00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:06.799
But I don't think you're championship anymore, or at least easily.
00:02:07.040 --> 00:02:09.039
Okay, well, this is coming from a commanders fan.
00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:09.840
Hold on, hold on.
00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:14.960
Danny, before you start to talk about before you start to talk about my Chiefs, we gotta I gotta introduce you, okay?
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:16.479
We haven't even introduced, we've been talking.
00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:18.319
This is with this is day one of the pod.
00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:19.840
They were like, Who are you, Sophie?
00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:20.479
Who is talking?
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:21.520
Who's this other person talking?
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:22.400
I'm ruining it.
00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:23.680
Yeah, no, no, no, no.
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:24.159
This is good.
00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:25.120
I like, I like this.
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:32.400
Um, I like that you're already I love that a Commanders fan has uh has uh the balls to shit on the Chiefs.
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:34.479
But anyway, um I think very fair.
00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:37.360
Basically, basically, that is the pod.
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:44.479
Um, and I was like, okay, I'm not as experienced in losing, at least as of late.
00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:53.599
Therefore, I wanted to talk to people who are, because I I am curious because sports is about greatness, it's about getting over getting to the promised land.
00:02:53.680 --> 00:03:01.199
It's like every year you are striving for it, and and a lot of times it happens, but also a lot of times it doesn't.
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:03.599
For 31 out of 32 teams, it doesn't.
00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:05.759
It doesn't, and it just keeps on happening.
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:08.960
And um, a perfect example is the Washington Commanders.
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:14.560
Um, and today my very first guest, I'm very honored, uh, is well, you he's a very funny guy.
00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:21.039
He also has a special called You Choose, an interactive comedy special on YouTube, which is also with Don't Till Comedy.
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:29.039
Um, but uh less exciting, at least uh from my point of view, is he's a Washington Commanders fan and just a DC sports fan in general.
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:29.439
Yep.
00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:30.879
Um but I have to respect it.
00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:34.639
Um so welcome to the podcast, Danny Joels.
00:03:35.039 --> 00:03:35.520
Joles.
00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:36.479
Oh, did I fuck up?
00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:37.759
It's there's no fucking up.
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:42.000
It's it's legally legally tell me it's jail, like I don't have a job.
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:42.800
Oh, god damn it.
00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:48.639
But I but I I don't know if I've uh the unless I get a hold of somebody ahead of time, uh it's always said.
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:50.479
I had one job you know, I had one job.
00:03:50.639 --> 00:04:03.039
No, but it it's I've you when you do stand up as often as I do, which is almost every night of my life, sure, you get very used to like I can't get to the host every night.
00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:05.840
So it's like also and also you're probably and you're also tired.
00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:07.360
You're like, I don't I don't want to get it.
00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:09.599
Who gives a shit?
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:16.720
Like the people in the crowd who know me are gonna know who I am, and the the people who know me and people who don't are gonna go, whatever.
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:17.680
Yeah, I don't know.
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:18.319
I don't care.
00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:19.600
Well it's you said it beautifully.
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:20.319
All right, well, thank you.
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:21.600
Joel's is classic.
00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:23.360
It's are and have you gotten that one?
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:26.639
A thousand Joels, Jollies, Hoyas are sort of the big three.
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:27.279
Hoyas?
00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:31.519
And every now and then somebody really goes for Yeah, you can't tell with me a little bit.
00:04:31.920 --> 00:04:32.480
Okay, okay.
00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:35.839
Are you are you well you would you say you're ethnically ambiguous?
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:37.120
I am ethnically ambiguous.
00:04:37.360 --> 00:04:38.319
What's your ethnicity?
00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:48.000
I am just a boring Jew, but I I was I I am when I when we first came to L when I first came to LA and that was that was like a thing.
00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:50.399
I was absolutely ethnically ambiguous.
00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:50.800
Yeah, yeah.
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:52.720
So I would go in for I could go in for any.
00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:54.000
I can really do anything.
00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:55.759
From one ethnically ambiguous person to another.
00:04:56.079 --> 00:04:56.399
Yeah, yeah.
00:04:56.480 --> 00:04:58.879
It's like no one really knows what I am to this day.
00:04:59.199 --> 00:04:59.759
Keep it that way.
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:01.759
Unless you listen to me talk.
00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:03.600
Yeah, but I'm just you know, get those roles.
00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:04.000
You know what I mean?
00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:04.319
Yeah.
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:04.800
Come on.
00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:05.759
Well, now I can't.
00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:06.879
Oh well, yeah, that's right.
00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:08.000
Ten years ago you could.
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:09.920
So that's my I can't tell what's happening now.
00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:12.000
Yeah, we honestly keep swinging.
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:13.120
We seem to be regressing.
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:13.680
Go on.
00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:18.000
Okay, well, uh welcome to my podcast.
00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:22.720
Uh speaking of ethnic ethnic debates, this is a good, this is a doozy man.
00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:31.680
This is I had a lot of fun looking up uh the commanders because again, we were talking as you walked up and you're like, you you maybe I said this that you're forgotten, you're forgotten group.
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:35.439
We're yeah, oh I I well I said we're a qu we're a quiet fan base.
00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:36.480
Quiet fan base.
00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:38.480
We we aren't loud.
00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:43.839
We're not particularly uh we we're not a talk shitty group.
00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:47.759
So as a result, I think a lot of people don't realize how tough it's been.
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:49.360
Um It's been really tough.
00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:50.240
It's been horrible.
00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:53.199
It's been a very tough ex existence as a Commanders fan.
00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:55.600
Yeah, um I'd like to tell you how bad it's been.
00:05:56.000 --> 00:05:56.399
Yeah, please.
00:05:56.480 --> 00:05:57.279
Um please let me know.
00:05:57.759 --> 00:06:00.319
Are you I and not that you don't know all these things.
00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:01.680
Uh well, how diehard are you?
00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:03.759
Would you say you very, very diehard.
00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:04.079
Okay.
00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:05.519
Extremely extremely diehard.
00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:05.759
Yes.
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:07.600
Um okay, I want to- I'm not fucking around.
00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:09.040
I I I love this team.
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:10.319
I I live and die.
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:11.199
I live on the Reddit.
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:13.519
I thought you were saying I live on the red.
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:15.120
And I was like, oh, is that like a phrase?
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:16.079
Burgundy.
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:22.800
That's a that's a good way to know if somebody's a commander's fan out of the gates is if they say, if they say, Yeah, you know, when we wear red on it's it's burgundy and gold.
00:06:22.879 --> 00:06:23.519
Yeah, well that's how it is.
00:06:23.759 --> 00:06:25.279
That's like an immediate, like, okay.
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:25.839
Yeah, get it.
00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:27.120
Yeah, you don't know what you're talking about.
00:06:27.199 --> 00:06:27.680
Get out of here.
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:29.439
Yeah, that's how it is with Alabama, it's crimson.
00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:29.920
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:31.040
I bleed crimson.
00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:32.240
Those little things really help?
00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:35.680
Because like you gotta suss out when someone's trying to like bullshit you.
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:35.920
Yeah.
00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:40.000
And that's a good way to know, is if somebody throws uh uh, you know, red and gold.
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:40.959
Your colors are red.
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:42.000
I'm like, no.
00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:47.600
And that's it, actually, if you're not watching the video podcast, which you should because all podcasts are video now.
00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:49.839
Uh and and honestly, like and subscribe.
00:06:50.000 --> 00:06:50.800
Give us that first like.
00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:51.360
Why not?
00:06:51.519 --> 00:06:51.759
Why not?
00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:52.399
Why wouldn't you?
00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:53.360
Why not in this economy?
00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:54.560
Um, I need it.
00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:55.279
Danny does.
00:06:55.519 --> 00:06:55.680
Sure.
00:06:55.920 --> 00:06:56.800
I'll give you a kickback.
00:06:56.959 --> 00:06:57.199
Thanks.
00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:00.399
Um and uh he's wearing a burgundy hat.
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:01.199
It's actually really cool.
00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:01.759
Thank you.
00:07:01.920 --> 00:07:08.319
Um and he was saying as he rolled up on the pod uh that you could have picked um a lot of different I have a lot of commanders gear.
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:10.160
But you decided what did you so what did you go with?
00:07:10.399 --> 00:07:11.839
This is a Jaden Daniels jersey.
00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:14.560
This is which is our quarterback who is my love of my life.
00:07:14.879 --> 00:07:15.680
I know Daniel Daniels.
00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:22.720
So uh I felt it was you know apropos to support my my favorite human on earth.
00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:23.199
Right.
00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:24.399
Well, because he is the hope.
00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:26.000
He is the he's the great hope for you guys.
00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:30.720
But but let's before we go into hope, I want to talk about um I want to welcome to um exposure therapy.
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:32.079
Do you know what exposure therapy is?
00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:33.920
Uh I believe we relive past trauma.
00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:34.959
Is that is that what exposure therapy is?
00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:35.439
Yeah, yeah.
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:36.480
So uh that's good.
00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:40.959
I have uh I pr actually have OCD and I've had to go to I've had to go through exposure.
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:46.480
So for example, like I was really scared of like my mom dying when I was a kid.
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:46.879
Sure.
00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:48.800
So my exposure would have a fair one.
00:07:48.959 --> 00:07:49.439
Yeah, right?
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:51.439
That's not unheard of.
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:52.560
That's what I'm saying.
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:56.399
I don't know if I would get into therapy and stuff.
00:07:56.639 --> 00:08:00.160
But like that seems crazy to be like, this child's really afraid of their mom dying.
00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:01.439
It's like, well, I think we all are actually.
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:02.399
I don't know if that's a disease.
00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:04.079
It was more of just like the thought loops.
00:08:04.160 --> 00:08:06.800
It was more of like not being able to leave the house because I'm locking the doors all the time.
00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:11.920
Because if I lock this door and I and I uh enough times mom will make it home.
00:08:12.160 --> 00:08:13.759
So you were showing like you were showing ticks and stuff.
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:14.639
Yeah, I was showing ticks.
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:18.079
I mean, I check real quick, since this is a therapy podcast too.
00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:24.959
I was I was marking off like you have to take like a like a quiz or questionnaire of like what types of OCD you have.
00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:27.920
And there was like maybe 50 questions.
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:28.879
Had all of them.
00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:29.439
Oof.
00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:30.480
Every single one.
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:33.039
Anyway, point is that's where I got this.
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:34.720
And this is exposure therapy.
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:45.919
Um and it's it's supposed to help you when you're exposed to something that you're scared of, it helps you feel less fearful and and and it feels like uh oh, it's actually not that scary, and and I can make it, right?
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:46.320
Yeah, yeah.
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:52.320
Um, but uh I I wanna because acceptance uh is the first step to healing.
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:52.799
Sure.
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:53.840
And that's why I'm here, really.
00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:54.639
Sure.
00:08:54.960 --> 00:08:56.639
I'm not here to roast you, I'm here to be your friend.
00:08:56.720 --> 00:08:57.039
I appreciate it.
00:08:57.200 --> 00:08:57.840
I'm here to be your therapist.
00:08:58.000 --> 00:08:58.559
That's what everybody says.
00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:03.600
Um okay, so I want to break down the Washington Commanders' sordid history, process the facts.
00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:05.279
I ask that you don't speak.
00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:08.000
I just w I just want you to feel it.
00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:10.159
Okay, he actually set down the mic.
00:09:10.320 --> 00:09:11.200
Um Wow, really.
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:12.639
You're a really good first guest.
00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:13.039
Okay.
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:15.600
The original team name was the Redskins.
00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:19.440
The team was named after the first coach.
00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:26.240
Uh William Lone Star Dietz, a man who falsely claimed to be Native American to avoid the draft in World War I.
00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:29.679
Tokenism, cultural appropriation, and cowardice.
00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:31.919
And that you can put the mic up.
00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:32.320
It's okay.
00:09:32.399 --> 00:09:33.519
It's who you can I I want to hear.
00:09:34.240 --> 00:09:34.480
Classic.
00:09:34.639 --> 00:09:35.120
Okay, great.
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:37.759
I'm closing my eyes though, so at least I'm like, Yeah, take it in.
00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:38.399
I want you explaining.
00:09:38.559 --> 00:09:40.559
This at least I didn't live through, minus the name.
00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:43.600
But your family probably did, because I want to get into your your family and how all that happened.
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:52.639
So in the 1940 NFL championship game, and just for you for people to all the sports guys that are gonna come after us, know the NFL wasn't the NFL yet.
00:09:52.720 --> 00:10:00.000
We hadn't combined with the AFL, but it was called the NFL Championship Game, and the Bears beat the shit out of you, 73 to 0.
00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:02.399
The worst lopsided game in NFL history to this day.
00:10:02.639 --> 00:10:02.960
Cool.
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:04.559
From 19 Did you know that?
00:10:04.799 --> 00:10:05.120
No.
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:07.840
I'm telling new things from 1946.
00:10:08.159 --> 00:10:09.360
I don't know my 40s history.
00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:10.240
I mean, I know some of it.
00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:10.639
Okay.
00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:21.039
I have a I have a my father-in-law got me a really awesome book a couple years ago that has every article from the New York Times about the commanders throughout history.
00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:24.960
So you can go through it and it's every time, every Sunday, like whatever article was about it.
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:26.080
Oh, I I've seen these.
00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:26.559
It's awesome.
00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:29.200
Everyone's getting them, everyone's getting them for their boyfriends.
00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:30.720
Great gift for my father-in-law.
00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:31.679
Yeah, it's a father-in-law.
00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:33.120
My wife did not get it from me.
00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:33.440
Oh, well.
00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:35.120
But her dad, kind.
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:35.840
Go on.
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:36.720
Yeah, no, it's a good one.
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:37.600
Shout out Ken.
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:38.720
Because he got it on Facebook.
00:10:38.799 --> 00:10:39.919
I'm seeing it all over the place, too.
00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:40.720
It's a great gift.
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:42.879
Uh, okay, so what else we got?
00:10:42.960 --> 00:10:49.679
All right, in from 1946 to 1970, 70, the Redskins had only four winning seasons in 25 years.
00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:55.360
The Redskins had one of the most racist owners in NFL history, and I'm not even talking about Dan Snyder yet.
00:10:55.679 --> 00:10:57.519
Said owner George Preston Marshall.
00:10:58.159 --> 00:10:59.519
That just sounds like a racist name.
00:10:59.679 --> 00:11:00.240
It's so old.
00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:04.559
Uh, refused to integrate the team until he was literally forced to by the federal government.
00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:06.639
JFK had to get involved, guys.
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:07.519
This is like for real.
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:10.159
JFK himself, no, but his administration, yes.
00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:13.279
Uh, Your Honor, I would say every team wasn't great at the time.
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:13.759
Go on.
00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:14.799
But they were the last.
00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:15.279
Okay.
00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:15.919
They were the last.
00:11:16.399 --> 00:11:17.279
What a day.
00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:22.000
I don't know if everybody else was being models behavior the time either.
00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:24.240
It was so bad that the I this is true.
00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:29.840
It was so bad that the federal government had to intervene because you guys were playing at a federally owned stadium.
00:11:29.919 --> 00:11:31.200
And they're like, we can't.
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:32.000
That's true, right?
00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:33.919
Uh anything in DC is federally owned.
00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:36.240
I'm sit that's I know I'm spitting facts.
00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:36.639
Okay.
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:44.159
Then the Redskins selected their and by the way, I'm sorry I keep saying Redskins, but I I I want to make sure welcome to my hell.
00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:46.240
Welcome to my hell up.
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:47.039
What do I say?
00:11:47.360 --> 00:11:51.759
Every time you have to say every time you have to say your team name, you still have to say a slur.
00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:57.600
Okay, the Redskins selected their first black player, halfback, and Heisman Trophy winner Ernie Davis has the first overall pick.
00:11:57.679 --> 00:12:03.679
So you were up, but then Davis had no interest in playing for a racist team and demanded a trade immediately.
00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:07.919
And then not only that, he died a year later from cancer without playing a single game in the NFL.
00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:09.120
Okay, well it wasn't our fault.
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:10.879
We traded him, so that's good.
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:11.519
Go on.
00:12:12.320 --> 00:12:13.759
Well, you're not gonna like this either.
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:16.960
The Vince Lombardi was hired in 1969 to coach.
00:12:17.200 --> 00:12:18.159
That's right, little known fact.
00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:21.200
And lead Washington to the first winning season since 1955.
00:12:21.759 --> 00:12:24.080
Things were looking up until he died after one season.
00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:24.960
Yep.
00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:25.759
That's right.
00:12:26.080 --> 00:12:27.360
We're not even out of the 60s.
00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:30.000
But we do have Lombardi, but we do have Lombardi as a former coach.
00:12:30.080 --> 00:12:30.399
That's exciting.
00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:31.519
That is exciting.
00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:31.840
Yeah, yeah.
00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:32.480
It is exciting.
00:12:32.559 --> 00:12:33.279
He just he's happened.
00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:35.919
He was so depressed that he he died.
00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:36.639
Sure.
00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:39.279
You had a good so you had a good run in the 80s.
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:39.759
This is true.
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:42.240
Um you had a legendary coach, coach Joe Gibbs.
00:12:42.399 --> 00:12:45.039
I don't want to say like, I don't want to not bring that up.
00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:48.080
You won three Super Bowls out of the four appearances under him.
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:49.360
Uh but you've been five, right?
00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:50.399
Five times.
00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:54.000
Uh we've won four, I want to say.
00:12:54.240 --> 00:12:54.879
Okay, and then five.
00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:55.679
I've been five, yeah.
00:12:55.759 --> 00:12:56.399
I think we lost one.
00:12:56.639 --> 00:12:58.799
So that's amazing if you're content with living in the past.
00:12:59.039 --> 00:12:59.440
Of course.
00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:01.519
It's definitely giving I was great in high school vibes.
00:13:01.919 --> 00:13:07.679
Well, and I and let me tell you, I wish it was in high school, but unfortunately I was a babe, so I've never actually lived through any of these joys.
00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:08.320
Right, right.
00:13:08.399 --> 00:13:09.120
We're gonna get to that.
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:11.200
So, not even high school.
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:14.399
Didn't get to experience my dad tells me tales of these days.
00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:17.200
I love your dad telling you a tale.
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:20.000
God, and it makes it see that's the kind of shit that I love.
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:21.759
Oh, we gotta Okay, we're gonna get into that too.
00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:27.360
I used to watch on a VHS tape the Super Bowl that we came back against the Dolphins and Doug Williams through like a million touchdowns.
00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:28.720
And but you didn't get to experience it.
00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:29.600
You were watching a VHS tape.
00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:30.240
I was a baby.
00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:31.759
This was at the time.
00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:32.799
I don't even know if I was a baby.
00:13:32.960 --> 00:13:36.879
Were you watching it as a baby, or were we at least watching it as like someone who could have cognitive function?
00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:40.399
I would watch it later as a cognitive, but when it happened, I were a literal baby.
00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:41.279
I was a little bit.
00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:42.639
I did not l experience this.
00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:43.679
Yeah, that sucks.
00:13:43.759 --> 00:13:44.720
I mean, that's really dark.
00:13:44.879 --> 00:13:47.360
Um my only memories of this team is sad.
00:13:47.679 --> 00:13:48.159
Go on.
00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:52.000
Well, where there are peaks, there are even deeper valleys, the Dan Snyder area era.
00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:52.559
Sure.
00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:55.360
Daniel Snyder owned the team from 99 until 2023.
00:13:55.440 --> 00:13:58.080
He is considered to be one of the worst owners ever in all of sports.
00:13:58.480 --> 00:13:59.360
Not considered the.
00:13:59.919 --> 00:14:00.960
He is absolutely the.
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:01.360
Okay.
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:02.159
No c no question.
00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:03.039
No question.
00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:06.159
It's so funny because there are so many bad ones like Spano family and stuff like that.
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:06.960
Nobody touches him.
00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:08.080
Nobody will ever touch him.
00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:09.200
Well, I've got some highlights.
00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:14.559
So a lawsuit involving sexual harassment, bullying, intimidation, hiding that's just one.
00:14:14.639 --> 00:14:17.919
Yep, hiding tens of millions of dollars in ticket revenue meant to be shared with the league.
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:18.399
Yep.
00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:20.559
The only thing that actually made them get him out.
00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:21.840
Which is crazy.
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:22.960
Which is crazy.
00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:26.240
Because he charged fans money to attend training camp practices.
00:14:26.320 --> 00:14:26.559
Yep.
00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:30.000
He renamed this this actually this this makes me mad.
00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:31.200
All of this makes me mad.
00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:35.039
But I think at this point when it comes to billionaires, I'm like, I'm gonna open my eyes now.
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:36.080
Uh oh, right.
00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:36.399
Yeah, yeah.
00:14:36.559 --> 00:14:38.480
I've been eyes closed the whole time, but it's gonna take too long.
00:14:38.559 --> 00:14:40.720
Yeah, if we're getting into Dan Snyder, I gotta I gotta lock him.
00:14:40.879 --> 00:14:41.519
Yeah, I need you to lock.
00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:44.639
Well, okay, he has all this is bad.
00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:49.120
And like, again, we deal with billion billionaires, I assume I'm like, yeah, they're gonna have sexual harassment bullying.
00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:50.080
Nobody touches him.
00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:58.320
But this thing, he renamed the field from Jack Kent Cook Stadium to FedEx Field, dishonoring the former owner Jack Kent Cook, months after he bought the team.
00:14:58.720 --> 00:14:59.200
Did you know that?
00:14:59.519 --> 00:15:00.320
Uh yeah, yeah.
00:15:00.639 --> 00:15:04.080
Or I mean, I'm sure you're like, well, it tracks, but Yeah, it's so it's funny.
00:15:04.159 --> 00:15:10.799
The thing about Dan Snyder is that's the kind of thing that I hear and I go, ha ha a baby.
00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:13.279
A baby step of evil from that man.
00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:13.600
Right.
00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:16.799
That's that's cute that that even made the list.
00:15:17.360 --> 00:15:21.919
If you think that's bad, wait till you start climbing down the list of Dan Snyder events.
00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:23.919
Okay, I want you on a couple.
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:48.480
Uh uh making uh uh charging people to go to the um swimsuits uh shoots for the cheerleaders, forcing the cheerleaders to have to change in front of people, sexual harassment in the office that was covered up about 17 different times, uh incidents on planes, let's not forget, of course, taking down John Gruden in their investigation of him.
00:15:48.639 --> 00:16:05.679
That's the whole reason John Gruden got taken out because of how shitty he is, refused to sell the team, saying he would never change change the team name uh and then being forced against his will, being forced to sell the team because he was such an evil man, breaking our entire stadium, shit coming out of the pipes because of him, literally shit coming out of the pipes by the end of his experience.
00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:08.000
Because he just wasn't like keeping it up to code.
00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:14.480
Yeah, he wouldn't upkeep it and nobody would do business with him because he was such a dirty little scoundrel that uh no state would work with him.
00:16:14.639 --> 00:16:23.039
So we were stuck in our old stadium because DC, Maryland, Virginia all said because remember, there's three different places that we can do business, because we represent the whole DMV.
00:16:23.200 --> 00:16:30.159
All three states were like, we will not give you a dollar because you are not trustworthy, and we were not able to get a new stadium.
00:16:30.240 --> 00:16:38.399
So shit was coming out of pipes at Northwest Stadium that we are still stuck in because we're trying to now build one now that we have a new owner.
00:16:39.279 --> 00:16:39.840
Which we like.
00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:41.759
We we we like.
00:16:41.919 --> 00:16:47.840
I mean, the lowest bar in the history of civilization was handed to Josh Harris.
00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:59.519
And so Josh Harris is he the is it's like he's been caught up in some stuff lately, but it's like he's a he's a an angel in comparison.
00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:07.119
So truly, like I truly believe uh Dan Snyder is the worst person on earth, and the only thing I I And he's not in prison.
00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:09.039
He's not in prison, he lives on a yacht.
00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:12.160
Uh you can follow uh Dan Snyder yacht tracker on Twitter.
00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:14.000
Like Santa Nora.
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:19.119
Yeah, like he he lives on a yacht because he because if he ever comes back to DC, I think he'll get killed.
00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:24.720
Um he probably can't step anywhere just any because he has such a distinguishable face, too.
00:17:25.119 --> 00:17:30.799
I say this as a person who has a career I really love and care about and a life that I really love.
00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:31.039
Yeah.
00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:34.720
If Dan Snyder walked in here, I would punch him.
00:17:35.039 --> 00:17:36.720
And I would take whatever consequences.
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:38.079
That's actually not that bad, but yeah.
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:40.960
Yeah, but but I thought you were gonna say something like No, just punch.
00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:41.440
No, no, no.
00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:42.799
I just would want to physically hurt him.
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:44.799
But I believe it would be good for the good of humanity.
00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:50.640
Yeah, no, I mean that's well, hey, and I you didn't mention this, but this is now this doesn't even hold a candle too.
00:17:50.799 --> 00:17:51.200
That's what I'm saying.
00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:52.079
Nothing holds a candle to it.
00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:55.279
He says billing the team ten million dollars a year to use his airplane, that's that's boring.
00:17:55.359 --> 00:17:55.680
Yeah, yeah.
00:17:55.680 --> 00:17:56.480
I mean, that doesn't even make it.
00:17:56.880 --> 00:17:59.440
Well, but but that's like but that's also like the little shit.
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:01.440
He was the worst.
00:18:01.599 --> 00:18:02.960
He is a bad human.
00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:13.920
And he had, and what makes me mad when you have owners like this, and this is how I feel about the Clippers situation, is like, then the which is not I know it's not as bad.
00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:14.319
Yeah, it's a good thing.
00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:15.519
I know it's not I know it's not as bad.
00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:17.839
I'm not as bad.
00:18:17.920 --> 00:18:19.759
I I mean, sorry, I'm not I'm not as bad.
00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:20.559
Well, you're not as bad.
00:18:20.640 --> 00:18:21.119
I'm not as bad.
00:18:21.440 --> 00:18:22.079
You've done nothing like that.
00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:26.640
Hey, congratulations on not charging people to watch women change.
00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:28.079
Yeah, I yeah, I have not done that.
00:18:28.160 --> 00:18:29.920
Umgrats on clearing that part.
00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:50.880
I uh what I uh what what makes me mad about when you have really bad owners like the commander's owner, and and I just bring up the clippers because it's just on the it's on the mind right now, is um the fans have to deal with the fallout, and the fans have to deal with them not with all their bad behavior and and the fact that they're not reimb the working on the stadium, that affects you.
00:18:51.039 --> 00:18:52.240
Ultimately affects the fans.
00:18:52.480 --> 00:19:11.200
Yes, it affects the players and it affects the staffs, but it's like this is you i it's the cornerstone of people's families cheering for a team like this, and then you have to be basically what are you like in shackles because of of of like an emperor, you know, of a tyrant.
00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:20.720
You're in an impossible place, and I think part of the reason why people don't realize how great a fan base we have is because for decades, particularly the last decade, we weren't coming out to games.
00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:22.960
And 'cause you were so mad at the time.
00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:24.319
We were trying not to support.
00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:29.599
We were like, we I was like, this is my team, I will always do for my team, but I don't want to give him a dollar.
00:19:29.759 --> 00:19:30.000
Right.
00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:35.440
I don't want him to be pro I want him to lose money on the commanders enough that he has to sell this team.
00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:37.759
What can we do to make him sell?
00:19:38.000 --> 00:19:42.880
So we but if you showed up to a stadium with a with a fuck Dan Snyder, they'd kick you out.
00:19:43.279 --> 00:19:43.519
Really?
00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:45.920
Oh, it was Who's kicking out?
00:19:46.000 --> 00:19:46.160
What?
00:19:46.240 --> 00:19:49.200
The security little goons! Yes, they were hard.
00:19:50.880 --> 00:19:58.640
We were battling this dude for decades, and so people don't realize what a fan base we have because people think, oh, it was like it, you know.
00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:00.000
But it it's all Snyder.
00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:02.160
I mean, he was he is the worst.
00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:06.319
I just I and it affected us as a base.
00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:14.079
And it's my favorite team, and for years I would just have to be like, we don't talk about him, and we just battle through it because they're my team.
00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:19.359
And I would watch him throw away incredible careers because of his incompetence and stupidity.
00:20:19.839 --> 00:20:22.480
That was actually something I was gonna bring up next, because the list is still going on.
00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:23.279
I'm sorry.
00:20:23.359 --> 00:20:25.920
Uh now I feel bad, but I have I have to keep going.
00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:29.200
Uh RG3, I think it's a great example.
00:20:29.759 --> 00:20:39.839
Throw away his entire Heisman winner uh 2012 uh pick, which feels actually what's crazy to me is like So that's when I was at Alabama, not to brag.
00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:46.000
Um but uh that's when I was but it feels like yesterday, even though I'm like, yo, that was 13 years ago.
00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:46.720
Oh I hear you.
00:20:46.880 --> 00:20:48.319
Because I'm like, oh, RG3 can come back.
00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:55.440
I still in my mind I'm always like RG3's gonna come back, and I forget that he's like a gro like he's like pushing 40 or is 40.
00:20:55.759 --> 00:20:57.440
Yeah, he's like my age.
00:20:57.920 --> 00:20:58.880
Doing TikToks, yeah.
00:20:59.039 --> 00:21:06.160
He's he basically I mean I know you know this, but just for the for for people who are listening to the pod, um, you know, he's he was an amazing player.
00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:10.319
He was drafted second overall pick, he won offensive rookie of the year the first his first year.
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:17.359
So actually kind of like a Jaden Daniels of of sorts or like uh CJ Stroud at his year, you know, that his one year.
00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:21.279
Um and uh and brought you guys to the first divisional title since 1999.
00:21:22.240 --> 00:21:24.480
But then he got injured in week 14.
00:21:25.039 --> 00:21:32.319
He wasn't cleared by his doctor, he played and ended up tearing his LCL, which I I feel like we don't hear about as much.
00:21:32.400 --> 00:21:40.319
We always hear ACL, we hear Achilles and all that, but and a loss, and now uh and that pretty much that that kind of ended it.
00:21:40.400 --> 00:21:43.839
Because when I looked, I was also looking at him coming back, then he injured himself again.
00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:50.640
I I I d I disagree with the story being told only a little because I think it lets I think it lets us off easy.
00:21:51.119 --> 00:21:59.519
Oh, uh I think that's I well, I'm gonna defend us a little, which was he hurt himself, but he was coming back and he was playing fine, and we had our first.
00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:01.839
Playoff game in centuries.
00:22:02.079 --> 00:22:04.400
Right, but of and of course they want to play and a big thing.
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:06.880
And they want to play, and so he played the whole game.
00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:08.960
But he wasn't he wasn't cleared by his doctor, right?
00:22:09.039 --> 00:22:09.519
When he was playing?
00:22:11.279 --> 00:22:12.880
He was cleared to play in that game.
00:22:13.039 --> 00:22:13.359
Okay.
00:22:13.519 --> 00:22:23.279
He got injured again during the game, and he wasn't cleared, and he went out there, and that's when he went from clearly hurt to and his legs snapped in half.
00:22:23.519 --> 00:22:23.680
Right.
00:22:23.920 --> 00:22:29.279
So that's really to me, and someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but to me it was he was cleared to play in that game, played the whole game.
00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:31.279
It happened in the fourth quarter with two minutes left.
00:22:31.519 --> 00:22:32.160
Were you guys winning?
00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:34.000
Or were it like a drive?
00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:36.400
We were within, yeah, we were within striking distance.
00:22:36.880 --> 00:22:38.319
We were within putt possible.
00:22:38.559 --> 00:22:40.240
I remember it was on his own goal line.
00:22:40.319 --> 00:22:43.440
I'll never I remember him crumbling to the ground and being like, that was it.
00:22:43.519 --> 00:22:44.960
We just killed our quarterback.
00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:45.680
We just killed him.
00:22:45.759 --> 00:22:46.880
We killed this young kid.
00:22:46.960 --> 00:22:53.119
And then he came back, and the thing was, he could have played well, but Dan Snyder didn't like him.
00:22:53.440 --> 00:23:10.559
Dan Snyder didn't like RG3, and so he pushed to have Kirk Cousins take over, started these rumors, and this is where, as a fan, like I feel a lot of guilt towards RG3 because I didn't realize quite how manipulative the system was.
00:23:10.720 --> 00:23:20.160
We were told he was a he was a malcontent, he was not well liked by the fan by the by the locker room, he didn't like we were told a bunch of stuff about this also feels uh legit racist.
00:23:20.319 --> 00:23:23.359
It feels like it feels like this is rooted in racism.
00:23:23.759 --> 00:23:24.240
Sure.
00:23:25.119 --> 00:23:29.039
Obviously, and but like this is like I'm like blatant racism.
00:23:29.119 --> 00:23:29.839
Okay, cool.
00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:34.319
And and it and like Kirk Cousins ended up having an amazing career to their credit.
00:23:34.480 --> 00:23:37.839
Kirk Cousins was a great quarterback who we also let go for nothing, by the way.
00:23:38.079 --> 00:23:39.359
But um it's worth knowing.
00:23:39.599 --> 00:23:40.400
And we love Kirk Cousins.
00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:41.359
We love Mr.
00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:42.000
Great Cliffs.
00:23:42.079 --> 00:23:42.880
We love Kirk Cousins.
00:23:42.960 --> 00:23:43.759
Thank God he got a sponsor.
00:23:44.079 --> 00:23:50.960
I can't say enough good things about Kirk Cousins, but we let but we really wrecked RG3's career over it, and they really misled us as a fan base.
00:23:51.119 --> 00:24:06.480
And the fan base has done one of the best, and I would think say emotional things for us as a fan base uh was uh RG three coming back a couple years ago to the stadium and cause when we got rid of Snyder and being like, We're back.
00:24:06.640 --> 00:24:10.480
It was like him saying that meant a lot to us as a fan base because I think we feel a lot of guilt towards him.
00:24:10.720 --> 00:24:11.279
That's really tough.
00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:11.519
Yeah.
00:24:11.759 --> 00:24:13.519
I mean, I mean that's beautiful, but that's really tough.
00:24:13.759 --> 00:24:16.480
So so I I don't think it's fair to say that injury derailed his career.
00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:17.279
I would say we did.
00:24:17.440 --> 00:24:19.440
Like I like Dan Snyder derailed his career.
00:24:19.680 --> 00:24:33.920
Well, and you say we though, and that's what sucks is like as a when you're such when you're such a fan of a team and you feel responsible, even though it's like obviously you're dealing with the devil, but you feel like you're part of that, you know, because you're you're rooting for them.
00:24:34.240 --> 00:24:35.519
At the end of the day, I bought the store.
00:24:35.599 --> 00:24:36.640
I mean, I wasn't actually.
00:24:37.039 --> 00:24:38.000
Did you buy the story?
00:24:38.240 --> 00:24:45.599
At the time, but they tell me they tell me the locker room doesn't like him and he doesn't know the playbook and he isn't easy to work with, and I go, okay, I don't know.
00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:46.160
I'm not in there.
00:24:46.319 --> 00:24:46.480
Right.
00:24:46.559 --> 00:24:46.960
No, of course.
00:24:47.920 --> 00:24:48.079
Of course.
00:24:48.400 --> 00:24:51.279
And it never occurred to me we would just lie.
00:24:51.519 --> 00:24:54.160
Like it just never occurred to me like How old were you then?
00:24:54.720 --> 00:24:56.160
I mean, no, I'm I'm an adult.
00:24:56.240 --> 00:24:56.880
I'm in my 20s.
00:24:57.119 --> 00:24:57.759
It doesn't matter though.
00:24:57.839 --> 00:25:00.640
Like, I mean, I would say, like I was like, do we just lie?
00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:13.119
It's one of the reasons why I think with Jaden, you know, this past off season, uh, due to his mom and a couple other things, people start, and as a fan base, we're like, over our dead body are we turning on Jaden?
00:25:13.279 --> 00:25:14.079
Yeah, you gotta protect it.
00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:17.200
Over our dead, over my dead body am I getting RG3 again.
00:25:17.359 --> 00:25:22.480
He's an angel, he's a saint, and unless I physically see it, I'm not turning on him.
00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:24.079
Because I turned on RG.
00:25:24.400 --> 00:25:27.680
Because I at the time I went, RG3 doesn't like being a part of this team.
00:25:27.759 --> 00:25:28.880
RG3 doesn't know the playbook.
00:25:29.119 --> 00:25:32.160
RG3, the locker room doesn't like RG3, I was told.
00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:32.640
Right.
00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:34.480
And that's one of the things, yeah, I know.
00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:36.559
He's put it he put his hand up in the air.
00:25:36.720 --> 00:25:42.880
Um, I I would love for you though to I'd love an image of you walking into the like you hear a rumor now, and then you walk in.
00:25:43.039 --> 00:25:48.720
You as Danny, you you're like you've barsed your way through and you you go into locker room just to just to be like, no, I gotta see it.
00:25:48.880 --> 00:25:49.519
Oh, I gotta see it.
00:25:49.599 --> 00:25:50.160
Yeah, yeah.
00:25:50.240 --> 00:25:51.759
Oh, I'll I'll text players.
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:52.240
Yeah.
00:25:52.480 --> 00:25:53.440
Do you like Jaden?
00:25:53.839 --> 00:25:55.680
He seems like a good dude to me.
00:25:55.839 --> 00:25:56.000
Yeah.
00:25:56.240 --> 00:25:56.960
And they all say yes.
00:25:57.119 --> 00:25:57.279
Good.
00:25:57.599 --> 00:25:58.480
I bet they all say yes.
00:25:58.720 --> 00:25:59.279
I bet they do.
00:25:59.359 --> 00:26:01.920
I I Jaden is up, as the kids say these days.
00:26:02.000 --> 00:26:04.960
Um, a couple more things, uh real quickly.
00:26:05.200 --> 00:26:07.440
Uh but yes, I understand.
00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:08.960
That that that that sucks.
00:26:09.039 --> 00:26:12.160
It but it I can I just say, since this is therapy, yeah.
00:26:13.119 --> 00:26:14.240
It wasn't your fault.
00:26:14.640 --> 00:26:15.359
I appreciate that.
00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:18.480
And can I just say that's the old story?
00:26:19.119 --> 00:26:21.279
That's the story you were living with in the past.
00:26:22.400 --> 00:26:23.359
This is your new story.
00:26:23.519 --> 00:26:23.759
That's right.
00:26:23.920 --> 00:26:25.519
The new story is you didn't know.
00:26:26.880 --> 00:26:36.240
You were lied to, and you believed you were just like you were you were believing in the good of the team, and it wasn't it wasn't your fault.
00:26:36.960 --> 00:26:37.920
Danny.
00:26:39.440 --> 00:26:47.279
RG3 losing his career and never having a career again.
00:26:47.599 --> 00:26:54.000
Well is not your fault.
00:26:54.799 --> 00:26:55.920
It wasn't my fault.
00:26:56.079 --> 00:26:58.079
I don't think I helped, but it wasn't my fault.
00:26:58.480 --> 00:27:02.319
I look, I Google, I Googled, it turns out you were leading like the charge against RG.
00:27:02.799 --> 00:27:03.440
RG3.
00:27:03.759 --> 00:27:05.200
And I'm like, well, okay, never mind.
00:27:05.359 --> 00:27:05.759
I don't know.
00:27:05.839 --> 00:27:08.319
I just but I just did it, you know, we didn't stand up.
00:27:08.400 --> 00:27:09.119
We should have stood up for him.
00:27:09.200 --> 00:27:09.440
We didn't know.
00:27:09.599 --> 00:27:10.319
Hey, you need to know what now.
00:27:10.720 --> 00:27:13.279
But I love that he's having such an amazing post-playing career.
00:27:13.440 --> 00:27:13.920
Yeah, he's amazing.
00:27:14.160 --> 00:27:19.279
He's very nice to see, and like, even if at times he can be a little cringe, yeah, he's cringe.
00:27:19.440 --> 00:27:21.599
I'm like, I'm not doing it'll never turn on RG3 again.
00:27:21.680 --> 00:27:25.200
Yeah, he's meant to and and I meant so much that he came back to us.
00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:26.160
Meant a lot.
00:27:26.400 --> 00:27:26.960
Emotionally.
00:27:27.119 --> 00:27:27.279
Good.
00:27:27.519 --> 00:27:28.160
Talk about therapy.
00:27:28.400 --> 00:27:31.119
Seeing him on that field, got me.
00:27:31.359 --> 00:27:33.039
I'm glad that he I'm glad they did that for you guys.
00:27:33.440 --> 00:27:45.839
Um I just want to know that we are finally, finally, after public pressure, which you had already alluded to, you guys changed the name, but it didn't go to the commanders first, it went to the Washington football team, which is, I'm sorry, hilarious.
00:27:46.079 --> 00:27:46.720
I loved it.
00:27:46.960 --> 00:27:49.680
The wash you love the Washington football team?
00:27:50.000 --> 00:27:50.880
Let's go football!
00:27:51.200 --> 00:27:51.680
I loved it.
00:27:51.920 --> 00:27:52.160
Yep.
00:27:52.400 --> 00:27:53.359
We already I get it.
00:27:53.440 --> 00:27:55.359
Like it's Oh, it was so fun for those couple years.
00:27:55.440 --> 00:27:55.759
Anytime.
00:27:56.000 --> 00:27:56.720
Who are you a fan of?
00:27:56.799 --> 00:27:58.160
I'm a fan of the team.
00:27:58.400 --> 00:27:59.519
That's what I usually say.
00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:00.319
I'm a fan of the team.
00:28:00.559 --> 00:28:01.519
Well, that's what we say at Alabama.
00:28:01.599 --> 00:28:03.200
We're like the University of Alabama.
00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:04.559
Yeah, we're the football team.
00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:05.440
Yeah, we're the team.
00:28:05.519 --> 00:28:06.559
I'm a fan of the football team.
00:28:06.640 --> 00:28:07.359
It was so fun.
00:28:07.519 --> 00:28:10.480
We had a great time with that, and I'm bummed out they changed it.
00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:12.319
Uh yeah, Commanders is interesting.
00:28:12.400 --> 00:28:13.680
I I don't love it either.
00:28:13.759 --> 00:28:14.559
I maybe you're right.
00:28:14.640 --> 00:28:17.599
I do think Washington football team might just be fun because it's dumb.
00:28:17.680 --> 00:28:17.920
Yeah.
00:28:18.160 --> 00:28:20.480
But now you guys are finally the commanders.
00:28:20.720 --> 00:28:20.880
Sure.
00:28:21.119 --> 00:28:27.119
And then the short list is the commanders haven't won the Super Bowl since 1991, which is a full millennial human.
00:28:27.680 --> 00:28:29.920
Last season you went five and twelve.
00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:33.920
That's funny because two years ago you went twelve and five, then you went five and twelve.
00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:34.079
Yeah.
00:28:34.240 --> 00:28:35.359
It's just literally inverted.
00:28:35.440 --> 00:28:37.440
You missed the playoffs in the last eight of ten years.
00:28:37.519 --> 00:28:41.119
And the NFL Network recently released a list of the top 100 players.
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:42.079
Do you know about this?
00:28:42.559 --> 00:28:43.680
For this season, yes, I do.
00:28:43.759 --> 00:28:44.640
It's absolute horseshit.
00:28:44.960 --> 00:28:46.480
Going into the 2026 season.
00:28:46.720 --> 00:28:49.759
And what absolute horseshit from NFL Network, go ahead.
00:28:50.000 --> 00:28:54.559
And the only team without a single player on the list, you guessed it, the Washington Commanders.
00:28:54.720 --> 00:28:54.960
Yeah.
00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:57.599
One of the dumbest lists I've ever seen.
00:28:57.680 --> 00:29:01.359
I could name at least three players on our team that should have been on there.
00:29:01.440 --> 00:29:02.559
Uh, it was ridiculous.
00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:03.440
One being Jaden.
00:29:03.599 --> 00:29:04.160
I mean, obvious.
00:29:04.640 --> 00:29:05.839
Truly, like not putting Jaden on a list.
00:29:06.000 --> 00:29:08.720
Was like Japaline and Laramie Tunsil.
00:29:08.799 --> 00:29:09.920
The two of them, it's like, what do we think?
00:29:10.160 --> 00:29:12.079
Jaden was injured a lot last year.
00:29:13.680 --> 00:29:17.920
Is the game the top 100 players in the league or is it not?
00:29:20.240 --> 00:29:20.960
What's the game?
00:29:21.200 --> 00:29:26.480
I think it's because he got the CJ Stroud treatment because CJ Stroud was so good and then was so booty the next year.
00:29:26.880 --> 00:29:29.119
But the thing is, Jayden wasn't so booty.
00:29:29.279 --> 00:29:30.400
Jaden had a good season.
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:31.440
He just kept getting hurt.
00:29:31.599 --> 00:29:32.000
Wasn't it?
00:29:32.640 --> 00:29:34.000
You look at his statistics, they were fine.
00:29:34.079 --> 00:29:36.559
I I'm just reading the fact and he had no receivers.
00:29:36.799 --> 00:29:37.759
I'm just reading the facts.
00:29:38.000 --> 00:29:38.880
I understand.
00:29:39.119 --> 00:29:42.319
But let it be known, NFL Network, garbage.
00:29:42.559 --> 00:29:43.279
He's gonna get it this year.
00:29:43.359 --> 00:29:44.880
He's gonna get it, because everyone's up on him.
00:29:45.039 --> 00:29:46.720
Um, okay, so that was a lot.
00:29:46.880 --> 00:29:48.559
Uh that was exposure therapy.
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:49.759
I want to check in though.
00:29:49.839 --> 00:29:50.799
Uh, how do you feel?
00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:52.720
So many other names you could have said.
00:29:52.880 --> 00:29:54.640
Uh it's uh it's I could have gone.
00:29:54.720 --> 00:30:00.079
I mean, you could have gone Gus Faraday, you could have gone Heath Schuler, you could have gone Michael Westbrook and Steven Davis fighting a training camp.
00:30:00.240 --> 00:30:00.720
You could have gone.
00:30:00.960 --> 00:30:07.039
I mean, like, I mean, the amount of things I can bring up that I'm like, boy, we had a rough go of it the whole way.
00:30:07.119 --> 00:30:16.880
Um it seems like it just kept going up until this past, up until now, and I I do want to talk about this current season, but I want to go back a little bit because we were kind of talking about before.
00:30:16.960 --> 00:30:21.200
Yeah, you're diehard commanders fan, you've been through a lot, you're still hanging on.
00:30:21.359 --> 00:30:25.119
So clearly it's like you already said, I am this is my team.
00:30:25.599 --> 00:30:28.160
I bleed Burgundy and Gold.
00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:28.720
Yep.
00:30:29.359 --> 00:30:29.759
Why?
00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:32.240
Like you said, your dad got you into it?
00:30:32.480 --> 00:30:37.119
Yeah, most most football, I mean, most sports fans to me are given their teams.
00:30:37.359 --> 00:30:37.599
Yeah.
00:30:37.759 --> 00:30:38.640
Uh that's same.
00:30:38.799 --> 00:30:42.319
Yeah, like that's that's historically how it goes, and that was what happened.
00:30:42.400 --> 00:30:44.960
My dad was like, we're DC sports fans.
00:30:45.200 --> 00:30:49.119
Um I'm a Did he sit you down one day, or was it just sort of happen did it just kind of happen?
00:30:49.279 --> 00:30:53.200
You it just was like, oh, it's a I mean it's like I don't remember the exact but I my mind it was like a sit-down.
00:30:53.279 --> 00:30:54.400
It was like, who are our teams?
00:30:54.480 --> 00:30:56.960
And he was like, We are a DC sports household.
00:30:57.119 --> 00:31:04.720
We root for the Commanders, we root for the Wizards, we root for the Capitals, and then when I was growing when I was a baby, we didn't have a baseball team.
00:31:05.440 --> 00:31:08.400
So uh this is how much of a DC sports fan my dad was.
00:31:08.480 --> 00:31:09.519
I was like, Who's our baseball team?
00:31:09.680 --> 00:31:10.720
He was like, We do not have one.
00:31:11.119 --> 00:31:11.759
And we will wait for it.
00:31:12.160 --> 00:31:13.599
He didn't go Baltimore Orioles.
00:31:13.839 --> 00:31:15.359
He was like, We will wait for our team.
00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:16.480
Our team is coming.
00:31:17.119 --> 00:31:19.279
So I was a nationals fan before they existed.
00:31:20.240 --> 00:31:24.000
Did he know a team was coming, or was he just saying, like, energetically, a team?
00:31:24.880 --> 00:31:29.759
DC, not DC not having a baseball team is garbage and insane and should never have happened.
00:31:30.160 --> 00:31:30.720
Is there a reason?
00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:36.079
Yeah, the owner was an absolute scumbag way back in the day, and so they fled in the middle of the night to Texas.
00:31:36.240 --> 00:31:44.559
The Texas Rangers are the are the Washington Senators, which is why the Washington when we when the team came back, we couldn't be the Senators because technically the Washington Senators are the Texas Rangers.
00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:45.519
I hate that shit.
00:31:45.759 --> 00:31:52.079
Same thing where it's like um That's the other thing when people give DC sports shit about the name change, give us a as a fan base.
00:31:52.319 --> 00:31:53.599
They're like, you guys don't want to change the name.
00:31:53.680 --> 00:31:55.519
And it's like fun fact.
00:31:55.680 --> 00:31:57.680
I've been through three name changes in my life.
00:31:59.119 --> 00:32:01.359
Out of my four teams, three have changed names.
00:32:01.680 --> 00:32:02.400
Yeah, you're cool about that.
00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:03.519
You think I can't handle it?
00:32:04.000 --> 00:32:04.960
You think I can't handle it?
00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:06.799
The Capitals are the only ones stayed consistent.
00:32:06.960 --> 00:32:12.720
We went centers to nationals, we went bullets to wizards, and then I went Redskins to football.
00:32:12.799 --> 00:32:15.279
I I've been through a name change, could give two shits.
00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:16.480
But I'm a DC sports fan.
00:32:16.559 --> 00:32:18.960
My dad raised me DC sports, I'll never be anything but D.C.
00:32:19.039 --> 00:32:19.200
sports.
00:32:19.440 --> 00:32:20.400
And where are you from?
00:32:20.640 --> 00:32:21.039
DC.
00:32:21.119 --> 00:32:22.160
Um DC proper?
00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:22.880
Virginia.
00:32:23.039 --> 00:32:23.599
Okay, Virginia.
00:32:23.680 --> 00:32:23.839
Okay.
00:32:24.079 --> 00:32:28.480
Born in DC, spent my first couple years in Maryland, raised in Virginia, so I say I'm a true DMV kid.
00:32:28.720 --> 00:32:29.359
DMV kid.
00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:29.759
I love that.
00:32:29.839 --> 00:32:33.599
Yeah, you said DMV earlier, and I was like, I was like, please don't bring up the DMV.
00:32:34.640 --> 00:32:35.200
No, no, no.
00:32:35.279 --> 00:32:36.160
The actual that's what it's called.
00:32:36.319 --> 00:32:37.039
Why is it DMV again?
00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:38.000
DC, Maryland, Virginia.
00:32:38.160 --> 00:32:39.119
DC, Maryland, Virginia.
00:32:39.279 --> 00:32:39.440
Okay.
00:32:39.519 --> 00:32:39.759
Wow.
00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:41.200
We're waiting for our baseball team.
00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:42.960
Okay, so it was your dad.
00:32:43.119 --> 00:32:48.400
Um, and do you feel like it was a terrible decision or do you think it was the best decision that you guys made as a family?
00:32:48.559 --> 00:32:50.480
That he because he made this choice for you.
00:32:50.720 --> 00:32:50.960
100%.
00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:52.720
You didn't have a choice.
00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:53.200
No.
00:32:53.759 --> 00:32:54.000
No.
00:32:54.240 --> 00:33:06.559
And I would and what I say is I believe the beauty believing in the life is filled with choices.
00:33:07.039 --> 00:33:10.240
There's an easy choice, there's a hard choice in life.
00:33:10.640 --> 00:33:10.880
Sure.
00:33:11.359 --> 00:33:12.799
Same thing's true with sports.
00:33:13.279 --> 00:33:14.240
You can go.
00:33:14.880 --> 00:33:16.640
I'm just gonna root for the best teams.
00:33:16.799 --> 00:33:18.559
I'm gonna look at the lineup every year.
00:33:18.720 --> 00:33:18.799
Right.
00:33:19.039 --> 00:33:22.960
I'm gonna go with, alright, this year, this year I'm gonna be a Rams fan.
00:33:23.200 --> 00:33:27.039
This year I'm gonna be Well, that's that that went that that ended quickly, but yeah.
00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:29.440
Yeah, their odds changed by a hundred points.
00:33:29.519 --> 00:33:37.759
Everybody when every single pundit on TV was like, except for Nick Wright, and I know Nick is cringe.
00:33:37.839 --> 00:33:38.240
I get it.
00:33:38.319 --> 00:33:39.359
I understand Nick is cringe.
00:33:40.640 --> 00:33:40.960
Thank you.
00:33:41.359 --> 00:33:42.000
Big Nick Wright fan.
00:33:42.799 --> 00:33:43.359
Love his poker work.
00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:45.599
Genuinely, he's great on poker.
00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:49.039
He's so good at poker, and he's so fun on the broad.
00:33:49.359 --> 00:33:52.319
I like uh I love him, but it's also because I'm a Chiefs fan.
00:33:52.400 --> 00:33:52.640
Yeah.
00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:54.720
Um, and and no, not a bandwagon.
00:33:54.799 --> 00:33:57.119
I grew up, uh military kid grew up in parts of Kansas City.
00:33:57.200 --> 00:33:58.240
I'm wearing my little Chiefs pin.
00:33:58.400 --> 00:33:58.640
I see.
00:33:59.279 --> 00:34:00.720
It's really, really cute.
00:34:02.400 --> 00:34:06.000
I also know we have an issue with our name too, but it's it's necessary.
00:34:06.319 --> 00:34:09.920
Yeah, unfortunately, that's the problem we changed ours, is I was like, hope everyone else is ready.
00:34:10.159 --> 00:34:11.280
They're coming for you next.
00:34:11.440 --> 00:34:11.679
I know.
00:34:11.840 --> 00:34:13.679
Because we were a smokescreen for everybody else.
00:34:14.880 --> 00:34:17.360
Oh, I thought it was uh Cleveland first.
00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:19.119
I thought it was the Guardians first.
00:34:19.360 --> 00:34:25.119
Well, so they changed first, but we were we were the great smokescreen, because we were worse than them.
00:34:25.280 --> 00:34:27.519
We were the worst name by I mean, horrific.
00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:31.760
I mean, you even to this day I say it and I'm like, I hate saying No, it's horrific.
00:34:31.840 --> 00:34:32.639
It's horrific.
00:34:32.800 --> 00:34:33.840
I said it a hundred times.
00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:34.800
I said it a million times.
00:34:35.119 --> 00:34:36.239
Just now, just now, just now, just now.
00:34:36.400 --> 00:34:38.400
I've said it so many times in my life, I've said it so many times.
00:34:38.719 --> 00:34:39.360
No, it's bad, it's a bad thing.
00:34:39.440 --> 00:34:47.920
And I used to have a bad and I used to have a whole rant about it that like, you know, it would be like if you woke up one day and somebody was like, somebody was like, you were like, Can I get a hamburger?
00:34:48.000 --> 00:34:53.280
And they were like, Did you know hamburger means a super offensive term for Polish people?
00:34:53.519 --> 00:34:53.760
Right.
00:34:53.920 --> 00:34:57.039
And you'd be like, But I mean a hamburger.
00:34:57.360 --> 00:34:57.760
Right.
00:34:58.239 --> 00:34:59.119
You know what I'm saying?
00:34:59.280 --> 00:35:02.480
It's like, you know I'm talking about my football team.
00:35:02.639 --> 00:35:02.960
Yeah.
00:35:03.119 --> 00:35:08.239
And that said Actually, you know, you know, I'll give a ton of credit to my dad.
00:35:08.480 --> 00:35:09.920
My dad Is he a good one?
00:35:10.079 --> 00:35:13.920
He my dad did he march to City Hall and say change the name?
00:35:14.239 --> 00:35:17.679
A couple years before before the name changed, my dad was like, it's gotta stop.
00:35:17.840 --> 00:35:18.480
Enough's enough.
00:35:18.559 --> 00:35:19.119
I was very proud.
00:35:19.280 --> 00:35:21.679
I was very Come on, what generation are we talking?
00:35:21.920 --> 00:35:22.239
I know.
00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:23.280
What how old is your dad?
00:35:23.440 --> 00:35:24.719
He's 68, 69.
00:35:24.960 --> 00:35:25.840
Let's go, dad.
00:35:26.000 --> 00:35:26.639
What's his name?
00:35:26.800 --> 00:35:27.840
Rob Jollis.
00:35:28.079 --> 00:35:29.119
Rob Jollis.
00:35:29.280 --> 00:35:30.079
Rob Jolly.
00:35:30.480 --> 00:35:30.719
Great man.
00:35:30.880 --> 00:35:31.360
You're a good guy.
00:35:31.519 --> 00:35:34.559
And I I I believe that he's the one that did it.
00:35:34.719 --> 00:35:43.440
And he was uh, yeah, he was he was I was so impressed with him, and that was like really for me when I was like, okay, then because I'd I had been qu a quieter like enough's enough.
00:35:43.679 --> 00:35:43.920

00:35:44.079 --> 00:35:47.360
But then that really was like, ah, I'm gonna be so I was one of the ones who was like, enough's enough.
00:35:47.519 --> 00:35:48.800
Just change the stupid name.
00:35:48.960 --> 00:35:49.519
And then we did.
00:35:49.679 --> 00:36:04.320
Yeah, and I think that's I think that's the hard thing is when you have a fan when you have a team that has a name like that and that is racist, I think it also makes a lot of people feel like the fans are all racist or they don't care.
00:36:04.639 --> 00:36:07.840
But it turns out like a lot of the fans they do care.
00:36:08.000 --> 00:36:12.320
It's like you saying, like, I was disgusted by it, and it just it's just bad all around.
00:36:12.400 --> 00:36:20.719
And that sucks to deal with because you're walking around and you're like, This is my team, but I know that it has a horrible name, and what do I do?
00:36:21.920 --> 00:36:22.880
I get in a nightmare.
00:36:29.920 --> 00:36:42.000
And I'm getting every time I say, Oh, I'm a fan of, everybody's like, oh my god, and I'm like, I'm so I'm I'm getting scolded every other week for so I was just like, enough's enough with a stupid team.
00:36:42.079 --> 00:36:42.320
Right.
00:36:42.480 --> 00:36:43.519
Just change the name.
00:36:43.599 --> 00:36:44.480
So I was like, done.
00:36:44.559 --> 00:36:44.800
Good.
00:36:45.119 --> 00:36:45.599
Change the name.
00:36:45.920 --> 00:36:46.079
Good.
00:36:46.239 --> 00:36:47.679
All right, I got a couple questions for you.
00:36:47.840 --> 00:36:48.159
Yeah, yeah.
00:36:48.400 --> 00:36:49.679
What's up with the Hogs?
00:36:50.400 --> 00:36:50.880
Love them.
00:36:51.119 --> 00:36:51.440
Great.
00:36:51.599 --> 00:36:53.760
A little piece of our a little piece of tradition for us.
00:36:54.000 --> 00:36:55.519
Because it just sounds like a big fat dick.
00:36:55.760 --> 00:37:00.719
So the Hogs are a um was an offensive line we had in the 80s that was famous.
00:37:00.880 --> 00:37:03.679
Um we It's like the Crimson Tide.
00:37:03.920 --> 00:37:13.280
Yeah, so it was so the Hogs was the name of that offensive line, and then the Hoggettes started, which was these uh group of That's our producer laughing off camera.
00:37:13.440 --> 00:37:14.079
Laughs so casual.
00:37:14.320 --> 00:37:15.440
Well, do you know what the Hoggettes are?
00:37:15.760 --> 00:37:17.360
No, but I can only imagine, Danny.
00:37:17.599 --> 00:37:18.719
I don't think you can.
00:37:19.039 --> 00:37:28.880
It's a group of very large men who you can look you can look them up, uh, who are uh who's stay who might have to crack them.
00:37:31.840 --> 00:37:33.840
I believe those Hoggettes are still going strong.
00:37:34.639 --> 00:37:36.960
Well, they're I mean they're not transitioning.
00:37:37.199 --> 00:37:46.719
I mean they they're they are for sure men dressing as well, but they're not doing it as part of the goof, but they're not doing it to make fun of anyone, they're doing it because it's fun.
00:37:47.039 --> 00:37:49.440
They're like they just like to be the We got bigger issues than the Hoggets.
00:37:49.519 --> 00:37:50.239
I love the Hoggettes.
00:37:50.320 --> 00:37:51.119
But that's why but the Hogs.
00:37:51.360 --> 00:37:51.920
No, you know what?
00:37:52.000 --> 00:37:52.880
Honestly, I'll give that to you.
00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:53.760
You do have bigger issues.
00:37:53.920 --> 00:37:54.239
You did.
00:37:54.320 --> 00:37:55.119
You remember past.
00:37:55.519 --> 00:37:55.599
Past.
00:37:55.760 --> 00:37:56.000
You did.
00:37:56.159 --> 00:38:06.800
We didn't, but so but uh but I love the Hoggets, and I thought, and particularly as time went on and the amount of issues we have, when people would bring up like, and these guys, I'd be like, shut your dumb mouth.
00:38:07.039 --> 00:38:07.440
Yeah.
00:38:07.679 --> 00:38:12.800
We have let us have one thing that can stay throughout throughout this whole.
00:38:12.880 --> 00:38:13.840
Can we have one?
00:38:14.159 --> 00:38:17.360
Yeah, and also it's like if they're having fun and they're not being rude about it.
00:38:17.599 --> 00:38:18.639
They're being great, they're great fans.
00:38:18.800 --> 00:38:19.679
I like the Hoggettes.
00:38:19.760 --> 00:38:20.880
I like I love that idea.
00:38:21.039 --> 00:38:23.440
Yeah, um, this is something that's interesting.
00:38:23.599 --> 00:38:26.480
Washington Commanders, I God, this is crazy.
00:38:26.559 --> 00:38:28.079
I I watched a video on this.
00:38:28.320 --> 00:38:32.079
They're selling merch with the Redskins' name and logos right now at your team store.
00:38:32.159 --> 00:38:33.119
Did you know this?
00:38:34.000 --> 00:38:35.280
It doesn't say the words.
00:38:35.440 --> 00:38:35.840
No way.
00:38:36.079 --> 00:38:36.639
Yeah, okay.
00:38:36.719 --> 00:38:37.440
No, they are.
00:38:37.679 --> 00:38:39.920
Go to Hogshaven, go to Hogshaven.
00:38:40.320 --> 00:38:41.119
It yes.
00:38:41.280 --> 00:38:43.280
They're selling merch with the Redskins name and logos.
00:38:43.599 --> 00:38:44.960
Oh, at Hogshaven?
00:38:45.199 --> 00:38:48.800
Well, I don't know if it's specifically at Hogshaven, but it it is the Washington Commanders.
00:38:49.119 --> 00:38:53.679
It's because just to use the IP, because if they don't use the IP, they're gonna lose it.
00:38:53.840 --> 00:38:54.639
You didn't know about this?
00:38:54.800 --> 00:38:56.719
This is happening as of like a month ago.
00:38:57.039 --> 00:38:59.039
On the Official Commander's website.
00:38:59.280 --> 00:39:00.880
I don't know if it's official commander's website.
00:39:01.360 --> 00:39:02.559
But I No Wait.
00:39:02.880 --> 00:39:03.599
Can we get a fact check?
00:39:03.760 --> 00:39:04.800
Can we get uh fact check it?
00:39:05.039 --> 00:39:05.679
Fact check it.
00:39:05.840 --> 00:39:06.320
Fact check.
00:39:06.400 --> 00:39:09.119
I know I got I saw the video on Hogshaven.com.
00:39:09.199 --> 00:39:10.639
I'm not, but I that's my source.
00:39:10.880 --> 00:39:11.280
I don't know.
00:39:11.360 --> 00:39:14.400
I know nothing except feels very off-brand for us.
00:39:14.639 --> 00:39:17.440
You mean if well it kind of feels on brand of how it used to be.
00:39:17.679 --> 00:39:18.639
But we're but we're different.
00:39:18.719 --> 00:39:19.679
We're a new place.
00:39:20.000 --> 00:39:21.679
I can't play, I can't play double days.
00:39:25.599 --> 00:39:26.960
Sorry, to dead name your team.
00:39:27.199 --> 00:39:28.880
Redskins name slash logo.
00:39:29.360 --> 00:39:31.599
Name slash logo on it or just logo?
00:39:31.920 --> 00:39:32.320
Name.
00:39:32.559 --> 00:39:33.440
Name slash logo.
00:39:33.760 --> 00:39:34.639
On the on it?
00:39:34.880 --> 00:39:37.199
Is it on the look at the official website?
00:39:37.360 --> 00:39:38.880
Just see if it's on the official website.
00:39:38.960 --> 00:39:39.920
This is a big deal.
00:39:40.320 --> 00:39:41.039
I'll be bummed.
00:39:41.119 --> 00:39:42.159
I'll be bummed out.
00:39:42.320 --> 00:39:42.880
I'm sorry.
00:39:43.119 --> 00:39:45.599
But it it if it's an IP issue, fine.
00:39:45.920 --> 00:39:46.960
That's why they're doing it.
00:39:47.039 --> 00:39:50.480
There was a reporter outside because they're like, we will lose the IP and anyone else.
00:39:50.559 --> 00:39:52.159
But also, why do you want to keep the IP?
00:39:52.400 --> 00:39:55.119
Uh because then someone else will print off a million shirts.
00:39:55.360 --> 00:39:58.400
So you can't you have to But but but it's such a racist name.
00:39:58.480 --> 00:39:58.800
Let them.
00:39:59.119 --> 00:40:00.079
No, we d no.
00:40:00.239 --> 00:40:06.400
Then people listen, the a fan base, the beautiful thing about sports, the thing I love about sports.
00:40:06.719 --> 00:40:07.119
Hey, you know what?
00:40:07.199 --> 00:40:09.039
Tell me about sports is it brings us all together.
00:40:09.280 --> 00:40:09.760
I do that.
00:40:09.840 --> 00:40:10.800
I yes, I yes.
00:40:11.039 --> 00:40:11.519
I love that.
00:40:11.599 --> 00:40:17.920
I love the fact that I tried to make a show for forever in uh in this goddamn city about a sports bar.
00:40:18.079 --> 00:40:19.039
Oh, yeah, we're in LA, by the way.
00:40:19.119 --> 00:40:19.360
I don't know.
00:40:19.679 --> 00:40:27.119
Because I was like, I was trying to pitch a show with a TV show for sports bar because I was like, sports bar is the last place people with different viewpoints come together.
00:40:27.280 --> 00:40:27.519
Yeah.
00:40:27.679 --> 00:40:28.960
And I was like, and I love that.
00:40:29.039 --> 00:40:35.119
And so look, I it's why I love being a sports fan, is I've had conversations with people very different than me, and I love that.
00:40:35.199 --> 00:40:43.840
Now that said, there are many, therefore, I can tell you there are many sports fans that if you give them the option to buy that old name, they're gonna buy it every time.
00:40:44.079 --> 00:40:44.400
Right.
00:40:44.639 --> 00:40:48.320
So I'd prefer if it's a limited edition, if we gotta do it.
00:40:50.800 --> 00:40:52.559
Okay, okay, fact check.
00:40:52.800 --> 00:40:54.079
We'll let you keep looking at that.
00:40:54.239 --> 00:40:57.039
Um, what's the longest you've let your team ruin your mood?
00:40:57.280 --> 00:41:00.400
Oh is it just like, okay, well, actually it's a two-parter.
00:41:00.639 --> 00:41:13.280
Longest you've let your team ruin your mood, or and or was it at one point so bad there was just doom and gloom every day waking up because you knew that things were just it felt like you were never gonna get out of that hell.
00:41:13.599 --> 00:41:18.159
Well, you know, so there's I always say there's a beauty to a bad season.
00:41:18.400 --> 00:41:19.360
Like last season.
00:41:19.679 --> 00:41:20.639
Oh, I've never heard that.
00:41:20.880 --> 00:41:22.960
I ironically there's a beauty.
00:41:23.119 --> 00:41:24.320
There's a beauty to like last season.
00:41:24.639 --> 00:41:25.440
I don't I don't lose well.
00:41:25.599 --> 00:41:26.800
I'm gonna be honest, I don't lose well.
00:41:26.880 --> 00:41:28.079
So sure, I hate losing.
00:41:28.320 --> 00:41:31.920
But within six games of last season, I knew we were in massive trouble.
00:41:32.079 --> 00:41:32.239
Yeah.
00:41:32.400 --> 00:41:32.639
Right?
00:41:32.719 --> 00:41:35.679
The c the season looked bleak really fast.
00:41:36.400 --> 00:41:44.480
Which is sad, but also kind of beautiful, because pretty quickly I was like, oh we don't need to get all up you know persnickety about this.
00:41:44.800 --> 00:41:45.920
Like it's over.
00:41:46.320 --> 00:41:56.960
I think the ones that really stick with you the most are when you're really in it and you're really competitive, and the commanders uh famously would break your heart, and it's the heartbreaks the heartbreak seasons are the ones that get you.
00:41:57.280 --> 00:42:02.559
We're and the ones where we would all we have to do is beat the cowboys and we get to make the playoffs and we don't.
00:42:02.960 --> 00:42:08.559
All we have to do is do this, and all we have to do is we just gotta win this game and we make the playoffs.
00:42:08.639 --> 00:42:15.840
All we gotta do, and for me, you know, this is a true broken fan of like I say anytime we hit the playoffs, I consider it an amazing season.
00:42:15.920 --> 00:42:16.559
That's where I'm at.
00:42:16.639 --> 00:42:19.920
It's like if you if you make the playoffs, I consider it a great season.
00:42:20.000 --> 00:42:21.360
Now let's go for it all.
00:42:21.679 --> 00:42:30.800
And uh we just had so many heartbreaking no playoff seasons, and those those would stick with me for an entire offseason, I think for months, those would stay with me.
00:42:31.519 --> 00:42:41.840
Well, and I guess my question is how do you believe, how do you find in your heart to believe if you're always coming up short, right?
00:42:44.239 --> 00:42:49.440
Where does it finally click for you to go, okay, I I'm gonna get up one more time and I'm gonna believe?
00:42:49.599 --> 00:42:53.599
Like if they keep not making it, how do you not fold in the towel?
00:42:53.840 --> 00:42:54.400
Ooh, we're back.
00:42:54.639 --> 00:42:56.400
We're back to what I was gonna talk about earlier.
00:42:57.599 --> 00:42:59.519
Life is about choices.
00:43:00.320 --> 00:43:02.480
There's a hard choice and there's an easy choice.
00:43:02.960 --> 00:43:07.440
The easy choice is I'm gonna root for whatever team I think is gonna win, I'm gonna root for the Rams, it's gonna be great.
00:43:07.840 --> 00:43:09.280
Or whatever team you think is gonna win.
00:43:10.320 --> 00:43:12.239
You root for we root for the easy teams.
00:43:12.960 --> 00:43:19.119
It's harder to go, I'm gonna root for one team my entire life, and I'm gonna truly believe in them.
00:43:19.599 --> 00:43:33.199
And I'm going to ride a much more painful journey, in the same way that choosing to go after a passion of yours will lead to much more heartbreak than going, I'm just gonna get a born job and live a live a chill life.
00:43:34.559 --> 00:43:37.679
With that comes, though, a greater reward.
00:43:38.000 --> 00:43:43.679
And the thing I tell people is if you stick with a team through pain, the wins feel better.
00:43:44.320 --> 00:43:53.679
When the commanders made the playoffs two years ago, I wept in my room because I've been through alone?
00:43:53.840 --> 00:43:54.079
Alone?
00:43:54.159 --> 00:43:55.679
Do you like to watch it alone or were you with okay?
00:43:56.079 --> 00:43:58.239
Unfortunately that was in front of friends.
00:43:58.480 --> 00:43:59.119
I cried.
00:43:59.440 --> 00:44:01.119
Oh it's I'm laughing because I've been there.
00:44:01.199 --> 00:44:01.599
I've been there.
00:44:02.000 --> 00:44:03.280
And it was it was very embarrassing.
00:44:03.440 --> 00:44:06.159
Somebody asked me a question because I was like, I was pretty chill.
00:44:06.239 --> 00:44:06.800
I was feeling it.
00:44:06.880 --> 00:44:07.599
I knew I was feeling it.
00:44:07.679 --> 00:44:10.000
I was like, wow, I cannot believe we just made the playoffs.
00:44:10.159 --> 00:44:13.360
Because we had won three games in a row in a last second play.
00:44:13.679 --> 00:44:17.519
Which historically we lose on the last second every single time.
00:44:18.000 --> 00:44:19.039
Well that's what I'm that's what I'm saying.
00:44:19.119 --> 00:44:21.199
Like, how do you and I'm not sorry, I'm not trying to derail you.
00:44:21.280 --> 00:44:23.039
I I I I want to keep going on this.
00:44:23.519 --> 00:44:27.039
How do you not like have a panic attack?
00:44:27.199 --> 00:44:32.719
Because if every single time you're like, we get to this play, it's like, you know, a lot of it's a lot of it is mental.
00:44:32.800 --> 00:44:36.159
A lot of it is believing, and you feel like you're willing the team.
00:44:36.480 --> 00:44:44.320
And so then and a lot of times when they actually like you believe, you're like, you know what, I'm vi I'm personally visualizing Mahomes making this play or whatever.
00:44:44.639 --> 00:44:54.480
So how do you Because when you get to those places, it's it's you you go, it's gonna be worth it in the end, right?
00:44:54.719 --> 00:44:59.679
Why do you do stand-up every single night of my entire adult life, basically?
00:45:00.559 --> 00:45:05.280
Missed a thousand things done because I believe in it, and I sometimes get really good rewards from that.
00:45:05.440 --> 00:45:06.320
Same with acting.
00:45:06.719 --> 00:45:09.599
And when I don't get the things I want, it's very frustrating.
00:45:09.679 --> 00:45:12.960
But you do it because the reward on the other side is greater.
00:45:13.599 --> 00:45:24.320
And when I got that moment in my life, even just that moment where we make the play, we win three games in a row in the last second, which has never happened.
00:45:24.559 --> 00:45:28.079
But it's worth it.
00:45:28.159 --> 00:45:39.199
Like that's why we do it, and that's why we commit to doing stand-up and acting, even when like sometimes it's really hard because every now and then something good happens and we go, that's why we did it, that's why we stuck in there.
00:45:40.000 --> 00:45:50.559
That's why sports is worth it, and that's why I encourage everyone, particularly if you're younger, to not just go, let me put together an assortment of teams that are great, but go pick a pick your city and stick with them.
00:45:50.800 --> 00:45:52.480
Yeah, or whatever you're a true fan.
00:45:52.719 --> 00:45:55.920
Or whatever you're born into, like maybe there's a reason, maybe there's a legend.
00:45:56.079 --> 00:45:56.320
Yeah.
00:45:56.480 --> 00:46:01.360
Um and it's and it is worth it for those that 20 year journey.
00:46:01.519 --> 00:46:06.719
And when I eventually do get a commander's win, like just to say again, I want to reiterate, 20 years.
00:46:06.960 --> 00:46:08.800
And 20 is kind, by the way.
00:46:08.960 --> 00:46:10.480
20 is kind of it's not 20 years.
00:46:10.960 --> 00:46:11.920
No, it's not, because I said 35.
00:46:12.159 --> 00:46:14.559
I said last time we went to the Super Bowl was a 35-year-old millennial person.
00:46:14.800 --> 00:46:17.679
And I will and I was a baby, so it's my entire life.
00:46:17.760 --> 00:46:18.960
I've never won a Super Bowl.
00:46:19.039 --> 00:46:19.840
Uh you will.
00:46:20.000 --> 00:46:23.840
But when we do, I'll weep my goddamn eyes out.
00:46:24.079 --> 00:46:24.320
Right.
00:46:24.400 --> 00:46:27.519
And we saw that with the Knicks, and I think that's like a perfect example.
00:46:27.920 --> 00:46:30.480
The Knicks are a great example of like finally belief.
00:46:30.800 --> 00:46:33.119
And if you believe it's worth it in the end.
00:46:34.320 --> 00:46:40.480
What uh on a scale of one to this is definitely our year, how delusional are you?
00:46:40.800 --> 00:46:41.119
Oh.
00:46:41.679 --> 00:46:46.000
Um you know, this year's a mystery box year for the commanders.
00:46:46.239 --> 00:46:46.400
Sure.
00:46:46.559 --> 00:46:53.440
We have a lot of new you know, we sort of had this amazing run one year where we won a ton of last second games.
00:46:53.760 --> 00:47:01.519
We had this incredible child emerge and uh was amazing.
00:47:01.760 --> 00:47:02.400
You mean Jaden?
00:47:02.719 --> 00:47:02.960
Jaden.
00:47:03.199 --> 00:47:03.519
Yeah.
00:47:03.760 --> 00:47:11.599
And uh we had this incredible run that was fluky in many ways.
00:47:12.719 --> 00:47:15.039
And also incre and also amazing.
00:47:15.280 --> 00:47:17.679
And then the whole thing flipped, right?
00:47:17.920 --> 00:47:24.480
Then we had this season where they went, we're gonna run it back, and we're gonna be the oldest team in football, they told us.
00:47:24.559 --> 00:47:26.639
They said, good news, we're gonna be old.
00:47:26.880 --> 00:47:28.480
We're gonna go with this strategy of being old.
00:47:28.639 --> 00:47:29.360
That was last season's right.
00:47:29.840 --> 00:47:31.920
Well, this year, I will say this year you're the sixth oldest.
00:47:32.079 --> 00:47:37.039
Yeah, but we're in the we're in the we're in the when you look at it, it's like 27.5.
00:47:37.360 --> 00:47:37.920
We're like 27.
00:47:38.239 --> 00:47:40.079
You're tied with the Falcon.
00:47:41.039 --> 00:47:42.239
No, we're tied with like 10 teams.
00:47:42.320 --> 00:47:45.440
Like, okay, it looked like it looked like six, but No, no, no.
00:47:45.679 --> 00:47:54.880
We did look at the hard.6 and like the middle of the pack is 27.4.
00:47:55.039 --> 00:47:55.199
All right.
00:47:55.360 --> 00:47:56.559
It's like we're right in the hunt.
00:47:56.800 --> 00:47:59.119
Last year we were the oldest by like years.
00:47:59.360 --> 00:48:00.159
Oh, that's funny.
00:48:00.400 --> 00:48:05.199
And they were like, we're old, but we're and then it was like injury derailed, the nightmare was horrible.
00:48:05.519 --> 00:48:06.159
Sure, sure, sure.
00:48:06.400 --> 00:48:08.239
This year, so we've had a ton of personnel change.
00:48:08.320 --> 00:48:09.440
We fired both coordinators.
00:48:09.679 --> 00:48:12.320
We have two new coordinators, yeah, tons of personnel change.
00:48:12.559 --> 00:48:15.199
You got David Blau and Devontae Jones.
00:48:15.360 --> 00:48:15.840
That's right.
00:48:16.079 --> 00:48:16.639
Come on.
00:48:16.800 --> 00:48:17.199
Come on.
00:48:17.280 --> 00:48:18.079
Someone did research.
00:48:18.320 --> 00:48:18.639
Duh.
00:48:18.960 --> 00:48:20.239
Uh that's my favorite thing.
00:48:20.400 --> 00:48:21.679
This is the only thing, by the way.
00:48:21.840 --> 00:48:25.760
I love comedy and acting more than anything and music, more than anything in this world.
00:48:26.239 --> 00:48:27.199
Except sports.
00:48:27.280 --> 00:48:33.519
Like, I I will and enough about me, but I I I it is uh thank you for giving me the floor.
00:48:33.599 --> 00:48:34.800
I I love sports so much.
00:48:34.960 --> 00:48:36.880
I just I I it's the best.
00:48:37.039 --> 00:48:41.519
And so it's like, if I can so of course I'm gonna do my fucking research.
00:48:41.599 --> 00:48:42.559
Anyway, keep going.
00:48:42.800 --> 00:48:45.920
So, yeah, two new coordinators, tons of new players.
00:48:46.159 --> 00:48:46.880
We just don't know.
00:48:46.960 --> 00:48:48.800
We don't know what the season's gonna be as a fan base.
00:48:49.119 --> 00:48:53.519
And I think that's truly the way going into it is like we could be who we were two years ago.
00:48:53.599 --> 00:48:54.960
There's no reason we can't be.
00:48:55.119 --> 00:48:56.960
We could be who we were last year.
00:48:57.119 --> 00:48:58.159
There's no reason why we couldn't.
00:48:58.400 --> 00:48:59.360
Well, give me a record.
00:49:00.079 --> 00:49:03.199
And tell me, give me a record what you think the record's gonna be.
00:49:03.440 --> 00:49:04.719
You went five and twelve last year.
00:49:04.960 --> 00:49:06.239
Yeah, so we have a vicious schedule.
00:49:06.400 --> 00:49:09.039
Our schedule is a really bad one.
00:49:09.199 --> 00:49:20.159
Um but I think the the I think we uh ten and seven is like our is kind of our really good.
00:49:20.559 --> 00:49:22.159
So we're talking like Bengals two years ago.
00:49:23.039 --> 00:49:29.119
We're talking that if we fight through because basically so the the first half of our season is just front loaded with hell.
00:49:29.440 --> 00:49:30.079
We're in hell.
00:49:30.239 --> 00:49:34.159
But if we can get through the first um couple years.
00:49:34.400 --> 00:49:35.519
The first couple years.
00:49:38.079 --> 00:49:41.440
If we can get through the first half of the season at 500, we're gonna be in great shape.
00:49:41.599 --> 00:49:41.920
Okay.
00:49:42.079 --> 00:49:42.960
But it's gonna be hard.
00:49:43.039 --> 00:49:44.079
So we I don't know.
00:49:44.239 --> 00:49:45.440
So I'm not delusional.
00:49:45.519 --> 00:49:49.840
I don't think we're but I think that I also don't, I mean, we truly don't know.
00:49:49.920 --> 00:49:52.400
We are a mystery team, which is why you're a mystery box.
00:49:52.559 --> 00:49:53.360
Your mystery mystery lines.
00:49:53.760 --> 00:49:58.880
The way we are being discussed by some of the pundits, I think is insane.
00:49:58.960 --> 00:50:00.400
Because I'm like, Yeah, they have you four.
00:50:00.559 --> 00:50:08.480
They on the and the in the NFC East, uh, they have you ranked uh ESPN has a 31 on the power rankings.
00:50:08.960 --> 00:50:10.719
And that's that doesn't make any sense.
00:50:10.880 --> 00:50:12.800
And if I may say, fucking garbage.
00:50:12.960 --> 00:50:13.599
No, that's not true.
00:50:13.760 --> 00:50:14.400
It's just not fair.
00:50:14.559 --> 00:50:16.079
Wait, I said I think I see something.
00:50:16.239 --> 00:50:16.639
Uh oh.
00:50:16.960 --> 00:50:17.599
What's happening?
00:50:17.679 --> 00:50:19.679
Uh oh, what's happening?
00:50:21.280 --> 00:50:24.159
Look, look that we got the glizzy queen coming in through.
00:50:24.320 --> 00:50:26.719
Um what's what's happening?
00:50:26.960 --> 00:50:28.639
Okay, we got some hot dogs here.
00:50:28.960 --> 00:50:30.239
Okay, we're doing a bit.
00:50:30.400 --> 00:50:34.000
We're doing a bit you wanna we got the glizzy queen.
00:50:34.239 --> 00:50:36.000
We've been making, we've been grilling this whole time.
00:50:36.239 --> 00:50:38.559
I w just lest we forget we're at a we're at a tailgate.
00:50:38.639 --> 00:50:40.400
Just Yeah, I keep forgetting where to head.
00:50:40.880 --> 00:50:49.039
Um and she's and we've got uh a glizzy queen in a in a hot dog costume that just rolled into an unbelievable job.
00:50:49.280 --> 00:50:50.079
Actually, it's pretty good.
00:50:50.719 --> 00:50:51.440
What do you like on your dog?
00:50:51.679 --> 00:50:52.719
I'm a mustard guy.
00:50:52.960 --> 00:50:53.599
A little mustard.
00:50:55.280 --> 00:50:59.679
Um yeah, because I want to do yours or my Well, I was gonna ask you some questions while you do.
00:50:59.840 --> 00:51:02.159
I can I can I can one hand I can one hand it.
00:51:02.320 --> 00:51:03.679
Um I think it is mystery.
00:51:03.760 --> 00:51:06.079
I will say, okay, here's what I here's what I'm hearing.
00:51:06.639 --> 00:51:07.039
You know what?
00:51:07.119 --> 00:51:07.920
I'm all on vibes.
00:51:08.079 --> 00:51:09.199
I'm a big vibes person.
00:51:10.639 --> 00:51:13.440
And I think that's actually a really good way to to do sports.
00:51:13.599 --> 00:51:14.000
You're good?
00:51:14.079 --> 00:51:14.480
Oh, really?
00:51:14.639 --> 00:51:15.360
Just mustard?
00:51:16.320 --> 00:51:17.360
I'm actually really excited.
00:51:17.599 --> 00:51:19.440
I wonder how I'm scared this is gonna go everywhere.
00:51:19.599 --> 00:51:21.440
But also who Oh, and it is.
00:51:22.000 --> 00:51:22.159
Cheers.
00:51:22.320 --> 00:51:23.199
Thanks for going to my tailgate.
00:51:23.360 --> 00:51:23.599
Of course.
00:51:23.679 --> 00:51:24.559
Thank you so much for having me.
00:51:25.599 --> 00:51:28.159
That's our Glizzy Queen talking off camera.
00:51:29.599 --> 00:51:30.800
Who's also our producer.
00:51:31.280 --> 00:51:32.400
Give it up for Elena.
00:51:32.559 --> 00:51:33.280
I'm gonna go, Elena.
00:51:33.440 --> 00:51:34.400
I'm gonna get a little air horn.
00:51:35.599 --> 00:51:35.840
Okay.
00:51:36.159 --> 00:51:39.280
Um, here's what I'm hearing.
00:51:39.440 --> 00:51:43.440
First of all, when I was watching I was watching First Things First, but I I that's not the only show I watch.
00:51:43.599 --> 00:51:47.679
But they do I like how they rank each like you know, division.
00:51:48.000 --> 00:51:53.039
And a lot of people were saying that they're they're they're putting they're putting the commanders below the giants.
00:51:53.360 --> 00:51:53.840
Totally.
00:51:54.800 --> 00:52:00.000
And I get they have Harbaugh, but at the same time you still have Dart.
00:52:00.239 --> 00:52:02.000
And we don't know how Dart's gonna be.
00:52:02.079 --> 00:52:04.480
And I trust in Jaden way more than I trust in Dart.
00:52:05.360 --> 00:52:08.800
Um and Scataboo is one running through a wall away.
00:52:09.280 --> 00:52:10.400
Anyway, so that's what they're doing.
00:52:10.800 --> 00:52:12.719
So that's what that's what the pundits are saying.
00:52:12.960 --> 00:52:20.079
But what I feel like in the streets saying Jaden's gonna have a bounce back here.
00:52:21.360 --> 00:52:22.800
Jaden's gonna go off.
00:52:23.039 --> 00:52:24.719
He he's got a lot to prove.
00:52:24.880 --> 00:52:27.039
I think he be on hit himself, he feels it.
00:52:27.119 --> 00:52:31.199
Not like I'm saying you gotta prove a lot to me as a you know, as someone who watches sports.
00:52:31.599 --> 00:52:35.599
I think he feels like he didn't get to the play he had such a great first year.
00:52:36.159 --> 00:52:37.760
He doesn't want to see Jay Stroud this.
00:52:38.800 --> 00:52:40.159
And he won't, because he's not.
00:52:40.880 --> 00:52:42.960
He's fiercely competitive, he's the best.
00:52:43.199 --> 00:52:49.440
He um, the question is the question is our offensive line is is really the question mark.
00:52:49.840 --> 00:52:57.920
If we can and wow, I mean like that's the thing, is like Jaden is the one thing that I know is good in this entire world.
00:52:58.400 --> 00:52:59.519
Sorry, I'm just chewing into this mic.
00:52:59.840 --> 00:53:04.800
In the entire world, the only thing I know anymore is that Jaden Daniels is great and everything else is a question mark.
00:53:05.280 --> 00:53:08.400
And so Well, I mean, unfortunately that's kind of how it is when you have a good quarterback.
00:53:08.559 --> 00:53:10.719
I mean, that's how I'm sure how Bengals fans feel.
00:53:10.960 --> 00:53:11.840
You know, when it comes to Burrow.
00:53:11.920 --> 00:53:12.320
It's like in the.
00:53:16.000 --> 00:53:22.320
I said aloud many times and I kept saying, which was like, there just came points in the game where you were like, I just don't want anyone else touching the ball.
00:53:23.039 --> 00:53:25.519
I don't want anyone else touching the ball but him.
00:53:26.159 --> 00:53:27.920
Let him do things.
00:53:28.239 --> 00:53:29.519
He's the only one I trust.
00:53:29.760 --> 00:53:30.880
That's how much I believe in him.
00:53:31.039 --> 00:53:32.559
I believe in him so much.
00:53:33.199 --> 00:53:40.480
Um and he's you know, he he you live and die by the athletic quarterback uh label.
00:53:40.800 --> 00:53:51.760
And I think the thing about him that people don't realize, but I remember, you know, when he showed up, the thing they said in training camp very early is they were like, more than anything else, they were like, he's fast, he's quick.
00:53:51.840 --> 00:53:55.280
But they were like, this dude is smart.
00:53:55.519 --> 00:53:56.239
Yeah, he's smart.
00:53:56.400 --> 00:53:57.360
He's really smart.
00:53:57.599 --> 00:53:58.159
He's very smart.
00:53:58.320 --> 00:53:59.119
And that's a big deal.
00:53:59.360 --> 00:54:00.800
So I feel very good about him.
00:54:00.880 --> 00:54:02.480
Our offensive line's a big question mark.
00:54:02.559 --> 00:54:04.239
That's that's the the biggest question mark of the season.
00:54:04.320 --> 00:54:05.519
And our secondary.
00:54:06.079 --> 00:54:08.000
Don't we got people walking by our tailgate?
00:54:08.079 --> 00:54:08.639
They're curious.
00:54:08.880 --> 00:54:09.360
You want a hot dog?
00:54:09.599 --> 00:54:10.400
You want a hot dog?
00:54:10.719 --> 00:54:15.280
Okay, over and come get a hot dog! We got some people walking up to our tailgate.
00:54:15.519 --> 00:54:18.159
That's when you know you have a good tailgate when people are coming up and have a dog.
00:54:19.599 --> 00:54:20.960
It's called tailgate therapy.
00:54:21.039 --> 00:54:24.559
I talked to comedians who are fans of diehard fans of cursed teams.
00:54:24.719 --> 00:54:26.400
So we're talking about the Washington Commanders today.
00:54:26.559 --> 00:54:27.039
Oh, it's good.

Okay.
00:54:53.199 --> 00:54:54.880
I mean you looked at me like I was.
00:54:55.440 --> 00:54:58.719
Well, it was I think it was the You were pulling back your hair and I was trying to.
00:54:59.119 --> 00:54:59.920
I'm sorry, I was I'm hot.
00:55:00.159 --> 00:55:00.400
I'm hot.
00:55:00.480 --> 00:55:01.760
I'm pulling back my hair because I'm holding it.
00:55:02.159 --> 00:55:02.559
Is it bald?
00:55:03.039 --> 00:55:03.440
What's the bald?
00:55:03.840 --> 00:55:04.239
No, sorry.
00:55:04.320 --> 00:55:05.360
I'm wow, thank you.
00:55:05.519 --> 00:55:07.599
I was just really using like all character work here.
00:55:07.679 --> 00:55:14.880
No, by the way, guys, I am in a full I'm in a half the half of my body is in a suit because you know, I'm a I'm a sports analyst.
00:55:15.119 --> 00:55:18.320
Um, and so I'm sweating my dick off, but uh no.
00:55:18.480 --> 00:55:24.800
That was uh named you like that as Kirk Cousins is legendary Yell.
00:55:25.360 --> 00:55:28.880
Um when we all realize what a dork he is, Kirk Cousins.
00:55:29.199 --> 00:55:32.400
Kirk Coins, for those who uh enjoyed him in Atlanta.
00:55:32.800 --> 00:55:47.360
My favorite Kirk Cousins one, and I think it's the lesser played one, but if you go back to his first real season behind behind there, when he was mic'd up for a game, and he throws a touchdown to I want to say Terry.
00:55:48.000 --> 00:55:50.719
Might be uh pretty We're talking commanders?
00:55:50.880 --> 00:55:58.400
Yeah, okay he throws it to somebody and he goes running up to them and he goes, I'll never forget it's my it's to me.
00:55:58.480 --> 00:56:00.159
This is my it's better than you like that.
00:56:00.239 --> 00:56:04.559
It's he goes, What a baller! What a baller! You guys are the best.
00:56:05.599 --> 00:56:10.000
And that one made me laugh so hard, and I say that all the time to my wife.
00:56:10.320 --> 00:56:10.880
What a baller.
00:56:11.039 --> 00:56:12.559
What a baller, you guys are the best.
00:56:12.960 --> 00:56:15.039
I like I like it, but you know what?
00:56:15.119 --> 00:56:18.000
I think the reason why I like you like that is because it's it's less expected.
00:56:18.079 --> 00:56:22.880
Because he's he's very much like, dang it, no cursing, got gosh, dang it.
00:56:23.280 --> 00:56:30.159
He is the most he is the most genuine outside of Tebow, like that kind of thing.
00:56:30.320 --> 00:56:32.960
Which I actually don't think Tebow's that genuine, but we I we don't have time.
00:56:33.199 --> 00:56:34.159
Tebow's the most genuine.
00:56:34.239 --> 00:56:34.800
I mean, we don't have time.
00:56:35.039 --> 00:56:36.480
Tebow lives that life, my friend.
00:56:36.639 --> 00:56:38.000
He might live it, but I think he put it on.
00:56:38.079 --> 00:56:39.840
I think Kirk, I think it's in Kirk's body.
00:56:40.000 --> 00:56:41.119
Oh, get me started on Tebow.
00:56:41.199 --> 00:56:41.840
It's gonna take us too long.
00:56:42.159 --> 00:56:42.480
It's too long.
00:56:42.559 --> 00:56:42.960
That's another pop.
00:56:43.119 --> 00:56:43.440
We'll get you back.
00:56:43.920 --> 00:56:44.960
You have a college team?
00:56:45.280 --> 00:56:45.599
No.
00:56:45.840 --> 00:56:46.000
Okay.
00:56:46.159 --> 00:56:46.880
I was like, we can't do that.
00:56:47.119 --> 00:56:47.519
I'm too dumb.
00:56:47.599 --> 00:56:48.559
I'm too invested in DC's product.
00:56:48.719 --> 00:56:49.679
No, you got because you're in the DMV.
00:56:49.760 --> 00:56:50.320
You got too much going on.
00:56:51.440 --> 00:56:53.039
Well, you like that as my favorite.
00:56:53.119 --> 00:56:56.000
I think my favorites when uh Kirk goes I keep doing this with my hair, yeah.
00:56:56.239 --> 00:56:56.639
Yeah, right?
00:56:56.719 --> 00:56:57.679
It was confusing when you did that.
00:56:57.760 --> 00:57:00.159
I was like, you know what?
00:57:00.320 --> 00:57:05.199
Because I also noticed too, it's because I'm used to putting my I'm used to uh putting my hands through my hair.
00:57:05.280 --> 00:57:08.000
Uh huh, you know, and I can't do it because I have my head headset on.
00:57:08.239 --> 00:57:08.719
Sure.
00:57:09.119 --> 00:57:15.679
Anyway, the point is I love it when Kirk Go chains is Kirkco Chains and he goes hard in the paint and he yells.
00:57:15.760 --> 00:57:18.559
I like it when I'm like, oh wow, there's because it also there's this thing.
00:57:18.639 --> 00:57:22.079
I'm like, inside of Kirk Cousins, there's that dog.
00:57:22.400 --> 00:57:24.079
Well, and and no, and I love that.
00:57:24.159 --> 00:57:30.079
I mean, I I there's a lot about Kirk Cousins I love and And I'm really happy he got to be a commander for you guys.
00:57:30.320 --> 00:57:34.159
Even though I know that it came on the heels of RG3 and like all this kind of stuff and the bats over that.
00:57:34.559 --> 00:57:36.159
I couldn't have better memories of Kirk Cousins.
00:57:36.239 --> 00:57:39.360
We loved Kirk Cousins, he was he's such a special player.
00:57:39.519 --> 00:57:41.440
I love that his career, you know.
00:57:41.599 --> 00:57:48.480
We famously DC sports have been so bad for so long that there was a period where we kind of would root for people to leave.
00:57:48.639 --> 00:57:51.039
Like if we really loved a player, we'd be like, get out of here.
00:57:51.280 --> 00:57:51.519
Sure.
00:57:51.679 --> 00:57:55.440
And like for Kirk it was almost that way where it was like, go have a great career.
00:57:55.679 --> 00:57:57.360
Like you deserve better than to be with us.
00:57:57.440 --> 00:57:58.960
And I'm so happy he's gotten to have the career.
00:57:59.280 --> 00:58:05.840
Kind of like in baseball when they're um what do they call it with the when you're you're not homegrown talent.
00:58:05.920 --> 00:58:09.920
You know what I'm talking about, you know where they in in in in soccer and football, they do it too, where they they're basically.
00:58:10.079 --> 00:58:11.199
If somebody plays in one place the whole time.
00:58:11.440 --> 00:58:12.239
Would you say like farm?
00:58:12.480 --> 00:58:13.039
Farm team.
00:58:13.199 --> 00:58:17.360
Oh you almost like cre you almost made yourself a farm team without being a farm team.
00:58:17.760 --> 00:58:24.159
Like, no, truly, like we would just lose like the amount of I mean the entire NFL's coaching staff came from us.
00:58:24.400 --> 00:58:28.960
Uh we're responsible for half the coaches in the NFL came out of the commanders.
00:58:29.280 --> 00:58:31.199
McVeigh, Shanahan, everybody.
00:58:31.360 --> 00:58:32.320
Everybody came through us.
00:58:32.400 --> 00:58:33.039
Yeah.
00:58:33.199 --> 00:58:36.079
Um, we just are responsible for so many of the great coaches.
00:58:36.159 --> 00:58:37.360
We we Which that should be no.
00:58:37.599 --> 00:58:39.760
I wish people would, I wish the like the layman would be.
00:58:39.920 --> 00:58:42.400
They remind they remind us of it all the time.
00:58:42.880 --> 00:58:43.760
By winning?
00:58:44.000 --> 00:58:48.480
Well, just all every time they're like, check out all the coaches that came, do the computer.
00:58:48.880 --> 00:58:49.280
Right, right, right.
00:58:50.159 --> 00:58:50.960
Uh Mike McDaniel.
00:58:51.119 --> 00:58:51.599
I mean, everybody.
00:58:51.920 --> 00:58:53.679
And then you don't, and then like they're not still on your team, right?
00:58:53.920 --> 00:58:56.719
And then it was like, and then we stuck with Jim Zord.
00:58:57.039 --> 00:59:01.920
Look at all these hot people you dated that have gone on to date other hot people.
00:59:02.239 --> 00:59:02.880
Hotter people.
00:59:03.039 --> 00:59:04.639
Um, okay, so wait, let's go back to the game.
00:59:04.719 --> 00:59:05.679
This is called You Like That.
00:59:05.920 --> 00:59:06.320
Yep.
00:59:06.480 --> 00:59:11.760
And so what I'm gonna say is I'm gonna see a situation or player, and then I want you to tell me if you if you like that.
00:59:12.960 --> 00:59:15.440
How long is this until this is annoying?
00:59:16.079 --> 00:59:17.760
I would like it if you did it.
00:59:18.000 --> 00:59:19.599
It's do you wait, okay.
00:59:19.679 --> 00:59:20.719
How do you direct me?
00:59:20.880 --> 00:59:21.679
You like that?
00:59:21.920 --> 00:59:22.480
You like that?
00:59:22.719 --> 00:59:23.280
Yeah, you gotta go.
00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:25.679
It's it's it's You like that! It's super nasal and nerdy.
00:59:25.920 --> 00:59:26.159
Should I run?
00:59:26.639 --> 00:59:27.840
You're making it sound too cool.
00:59:28.159 --> 00:59:30.800
Okay, well, I think Kirk's thing was it was you like that.
00:59:30.960 --> 00:59:34.400
Yeah, but it like that because he said it, he said it after a win.
00:59:34.800 --> 00:59:35.599
Huge comeback win.
00:59:35.920 --> 00:59:40.320
It was a huge comeback win, and he said it to the press.
00:59:41.199 --> 00:59:43.280
In a walk by like a drive-by.
00:59:43.760 --> 00:59:44.960
Yeah, like a walk by.
00:59:45.360 --> 00:59:53.039
Like, and it was this like it was so but that was the thing about Kirk Cousins that's so special, is he's so nerdy but lovable.
00:59:53.119 --> 00:59:58.639
Like it was such a he was trying to be cool and it was so endearing.
00:59:59.440 --> 01:00:00.320
He had me fooled.
01:00:00.400 --> 01:00:01.519
I thought he was pretty cool in that moment.
01:00:01.679 --> 01:00:02.880
Ah, I mean I said you like that.
01:00:03.280 --> 01:00:06.559
Because he was just so pumped up because it's also like so genuine.
01:00:06.800 --> 01:00:08.480
I mean, again, what a baller.
01:00:08.639 --> 01:00:09.679
What a baller What a baller.
01:00:10.239 --> 01:00:11.119
You guys are the best.
01:00:11.280 --> 01:00:12.159
You like that!
01:00:12.480 --> 01:00:13.280
You like that!
01:00:13.599 --> 01:00:14.639
Okay, I'm gonna try to do this.
01:00:14.719 --> 01:00:15.920
I'm gonna try to say it in the right way.
01:00:16.000 --> 01:00:19.199
Okay, so alright, so you got the game though?
01:00:19.519 --> 01:00:20.159
I get the game.
01:00:20.320 --> 01:00:20.639
Okay, cool.
01:00:20.880 --> 01:00:25.679
So new OC David Blau, new DC Durante Jones.
01:00:26.559 --> 01:00:27.519
You like that?
01:00:27.840 --> 01:00:29.519
Uh I do like that.
01:00:29.679 --> 01:00:31.760
I think that um I think Was that good?
01:00:31.920 --> 01:00:33.519
It was it was uh Was that better?
01:00:33.599 --> 01:00:34.159
It was great, it was great.
01:00:34.239 --> 01:00:34.719
You're doing great.
01:00:34.880 --> 01:00:35.119
Thank you.
01:00:35.280 --> 01:00:41.119
Um I think that um you know, Kingsbury was a tough loss, and I think for Blau it's a little bit tougher.
01:00:41.199 --> 01:00:46.719
I think Jerry Witt was junior was a debacle last year, so it's a lot easier uh on that side of the ball.
01:00:46.960 --> 01:00:47.679
Kingsbury's good.
01:00:47.920 --> 01:00:56.000
Kingsbury, it hurt to lose, but Blau they say is great, but you know, they're not obviously they're not gonna hire somebody and then be like, they say he's terrible.
01:00:56.239 --> 01:01:02.480
Uh so it's like everybody's like, yeah, someone last night was like, was like, they say he's like a G offensive genius.
01:01:02.559 --> 01:01:06.800
And I'm like, well, they're not gonna say like they say he's really confused by how to play football.
01:01:06.960 --> 01:01:08.559
Like they're gonna tell us he's great.
01:01:08.719 --> 01:01:17.679
We'll find out, but um, I do think I I I thought Kingsbury was a little tough, but our on the defensive side was a no-brainer, and uh I'm looking forward to seeing what they can do.
01:01:17.920 --> 01:01:18.159
Okay.
01:01:18.320 --> 01:01:19.760
All right, so you like it?
01:01:19.920 --> 01:01:20.400
Yeah.
01:01:20.639 --> 01:01:23.199
Six oldest, you have the sixth oldest team.
01:01:23.360 --> 01:01:24.000
You like that!
01:01:24.400 --> 01:01:25.360
I don't think that's fair.
01:01:25.519 --> 01:01:27.039
We're right in the pack with everybody else.
01:01:27.360 --> 01:01:28.800
That's really a last season thing.
01:01:28.880 --> 01:01:29.360
How dare you?
01:01:29.440 --> 01:01:29.840
I don't like it.
01:01:30.079 --> 01:01:30.480
I looked it up.
01:01:30.559 --> 01:01:30.960
It says six.
01:01:31.119 --> 01:01:31.519
I don't think it's a big one.
01:01:31.679 --> 01:01:33.679
I know we are, but we are not really.
01:01:34.000 --> 01:01:35.039
It's still, but it still is.
01:01:35.119 --> 01:01:35.440
You can't.
01:01:35.679 --> 01:01:37.360
We're right in the middle of the way.
01:01:37.519 --> 01:01:37.920
Math is math.
01:01:38.639 --> 01:01:40.000
Math is math one year.
01:01:40.400 --> 01:01:40.719
Still math.
01:01:40.800 --> 01:01:41.039
You know what?
01:01:41.119 --> 01:01:41.280
Let me.
01:01:41.519 --> 01:01:42.480
We just released a tackle.
01:01:42.559 --> 01:01:43.920
I bet we actually moved up the other day.
01:01:44.079 --> 01:01:44.480
You know what?
01:01:44.719 --> 01:01:45.760
We released uh what's his name?
01:01:45.920 --> 01:01:46.480
Pump Bridge.
01:01:46.880 --> 01:01:49.199
Oh, what uh wait, from the Chiefs?
01:01:49.440 --> 01:01:50.000
Former Chiefs?
01:01:50.239 --> 01:01:50.400
Yeah.
01:01:50.719 --> 01:01:51.760
Why'd you guys release him?
01:01:52.000 --> 01:01:52.400
Injured?
01:01:52.559 --> 01:01:53.679
I believe he wasn't doing great.
01:01:53.840 --> 01:01:54.880
Yeah, he wasn't that great.
01:01:55.119 --> 01:01:55.760
Yeah, I know.
01:01:55.840 --> 01:01:58.000
I'm I'm glad I'm glad he went somewhere else.
01:01:58.320 --> 01:01:59.199
Glad you got him off your hands.
01:01:59.440 --> 01:01:59.920
So sorry.
01:02:00.000 --> 01:02:00.159
Okay.
01:02:00.239 --> 01:02:01.119
Uh no, you know what I mean.
01:02:01.280 --> 01:02:02.800
But that might have taken our age down.
01:02:03.440 --> 01:02:04.800
Well, suck on that.
01:02:05.360 --> 01:02:06.000
5.5.
01:02:06.239 --> 01:02:08.079
Okay, Jaden Daniels comeback year.
01:02:08.239 --> 01:02:08.800
You like that?
01:02:09.039 --> 01:02:10.079
Obviously, you like that.
01:02:10.239 --> 01:02:10.559
Yeah.
01:02:10.800 --> 01:02:11.760
Major Tutty.
01:02:11.920 --> 01:02:12.480
You like that?
01:02:12.639 --> 01:02:13.679
Love Major Tutty.
01:02:13.760 --> 01:02:15.119
Major Tutty's grown on me a lot.
01:02:15.199 --> 01:02:16.639
Major Tutty's our mascot.
01:02:16.719 --> 01:02:18.400
He is a corporal that's a pig.
01:02:18.639 --> 01:02:23.280
And uh and um I'm fucking done.
01:02:23.360 --> 01:02:24.159
He's a corporal.
01:02:24.639 --> 01:02:25.119
I looked him up.
01:02:25.440 --> 01:02:38.400
Honestly, like, I was sort of out on it, and Elena, our producer, was like, so if I I'm like really high, I'm high on Major Tutty, and I was like, I don't know, but but now I've after looking at him a couple of times Major Tutty will grow on you.
01:02:38.559 --> 01:02:38.800
That's fun.
01:02:38.960 --> 01:02:39.840
Major Tutty will grow on you.
01:02:40.480 --> 01:02:41.119
It's kind of fun.
01:02:41.280 --> 01:02:44.079
He kind of emerged, and we all were like, excuse me.
01:02:44.719 --> 01:02:45.519
Wait, when did he emerge?
01:02:45.599 --> 01:02:46.880
Because it's like it's pretty recent.
01:02:47.199 --> 01:02:51.039
I I want to say in the last couple years, Major Tutty made his arrival.
01:02:51.280 --> 01:02:56.400
And, you know, you're trying to hit a fan base with a new mascot's a tough, uh a tough mountain to climb.
01:02:56.480 --> 01:02:58.960
Uh well when you already have had three names, also tough.
01:02:59.760 --> 01:03:03.519
You just inevitably when you're like, check out the new animal that we like.
01:03:03.760 --> 01:03:06.559
It's tough on grown men, but Major Tutty's grown on me a lot.
01:03:06.639 --> 01:03:07.119
I like Major Tutty.
01:03:07.360 --> 01:03:08.239
But did you 2023?
01:03:08.320 --> 01:03:08.480
Yeah.
01:03:08.719 --> 01:03:09.199
Well, it's new.
01:03:09.440 --> 01:03:09.840
I told you.
01:03:10.079 --> 01:03:12.400
But it is it because that's a long that's a short.
01:03:12.719 --> 01:03:13.440
So we've we've grown.
01:03:13.519 --> 01:03:14.079
We've grown a lot.
01:03:14.400 --> 01:03:17.519
Did you not have uh a mascot with the commanders?
01:03:17.760 --> 01:03:20.400
It was uh sorry.
01:03:20.559 --> 01:03:21.599
Is this gonna be another one?
01:03:21.760 --> 01:03:24.559
Well we had like we had like Native American stuff for years.
01:03:24.800 --> 01:03:25.920
No, of course I know that.
01:03:26.239 --> 01:03:26.960
So then that went away.
01:03:27.039 --> 01:03:28.320
So we didn't really have a mascot.
01:03:28.400 --> 01:03:29.280
Oh, so then that's because that's the one.
01:03:30.719 --> 01:03:31.760
So we didn't have a mascot then.
01:03:31.920 --> 01:03:32.320
You just wasn't.
01:03:32.480 --> 01:03:36.559
Then we become the commanders, and then so then it was like, all right, what's the commander's mascot?
01:03:36.719 --> 01:03:38.000
We can't go back to Native Americans.
01:03:38.159 --> 01:03:38.719
No, of course not.
01:03:38.800 --> 01:03:39.840
So then it's like, well, what do you do?
01:03:39.920 --> 01:03:41.119
So Major Tuddy's pretty recent.
01:03:41.280 --> 01:03:41.760
Okay, okay.
01:03:41.920 --> 01:03:45.280
Because I didn't know if it was like not to bring up Alabama again, but it's like the Crimson Tide.
01:03:45.440 --> 01:03:47.840
They're the Crimson Tide, but they're also the el they also have an elephant.
01:03:48.000 --> 01:03:49.360
So there's two things happening at the same time.
01:03:49.599 --> 01:03:56.159
Yeah, well the well, the pig thing, so the hogs have really, we've really that a lot of teams wanted us to go with a pig name as our team name.
01:03:56.320 --> 01:03:56.800
I kind of like it.
01:03:57.039 --> 01:03:58.000
Because we love the hog thing.
01:03:58.159 --> 01:04:00.719
Well, it'd be great if you guys were just the commanders.
01:04:01.039 --> 01:04:01.840
Just the hogats in general.
01:04:02.559 --> 01:04:04.320
I love the commanders, I'm into the commanders.
01:04:04.480 --> 01:04:06.880
They did a year-long, what do you want the name to be?
01:04:07.039 --> 01:04:07.840
Vote on it thing.
01:04:08.079 --> 01:04:10.400
And commanders never appeared on the list one time.
01:04:10.480 --> 01:04:11.280
Don't get me started.
01:04:11.519 --> 01:04:12.079
Did I have the list?
01:04:12.239 --> 01:04:14.880
No, I I had at one point a list of all the names, and they were bad.
01:04:15.039 --> 01:04:16.159
The presidents, that was one of them.
01:04:16.320 --> 01:04:16.400
Yeah.
01:04:16.639 --> 01:04:17.199
The Armada.
01:04:17.599 --> 01:04:18.079
The Armada.
01:04:18.639 --> 01:04:22.079
But there were some good ones also floating around in there, particularly if you know the pig context.
01:04:22.159 --> 01:04:24.320
I imagine there were some pig names that you were like, why?
01:04:24.480 --> 01:04:27.119
But now you would know that the pigs actually really like the pigs.
01:04:27.360 --> 01:04:28.159
Pigs mean a lot to us.
01:04:28.239 --> 01:04:29.119
But commanders are great.
01:04:29.280 --> 01:04:31.679
Hey, let me tell you something about having a winning season.
01:04:31.840 --> 01:04:33.679
Names sound really good when you win.
01:04:33.840 --> 01:04:36.000
We all were like commanders, and then we had that winning season.
01:04:36.159 --> 01:04:38.880
We all were like left hand up.
01:04:39.119 --> 01:04:40.159
Yeah, let's go.
01:04:40.320 --> 01:04:41.280
Left hand up.
01:04:41.519 --> 01:04:43.280
Okay, so two more.
01:04:47.360 --> 01:04:48.559
That went over my head.
01:04:48.800 --> 01:04:49.599
Left hand up.
01:04:49.760 --> 01:04:51.360
There was a really bad rap song made.
01:04:51.519 --> 01:04:56.639
And by really bad, I mean legendarily great, but it was left hand up.
01:04:56.800 --> 01:04:57.519
Who are we?
01:04:57.679 --> 01:04:58.960
The commanders.
01:04:59.360 --> 01:05:01.519
And that really caught a life of its own.
01:05:02.639 --> 01:05:03.519
Do you guys play the other games?
01:05:03.760 --> 01:05:04.159
You have to, right?
01:05:04.320 --> 01:05:04.639
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:05:04.800 --> 01:05:06.000
Left hand up, who are we the commanders?
01:05:06.320 --> 01:05:07.280
You'll see left hand up a lot.
01:05:07.360 --> 01:05:07.840
I'm gonna follow.
01:05:08.000 --> 01:05:09.679
We should watch a game together because now I now I'm invested.
01:05:09.840 --> 01:05:10.559
Oh, you're welcome to come watch.
01:05:10.880 --> 01:05:12.079
You've invested you've got me.
01:05:12.400 --> 01:05:15.519
There's no better fan there's no better fan base on Earth than DC Sports fan base.
01:05:15.760 --> 01:05:16.320
Everybody should join.
01:05:16.480 --> 01:05:16.639
Okay.
01:05:16.880 --> 01:05:17.440
If they want to join.
01:05:17.679 --> 01:05:18.800
Dan Quinn's backward hat.
01:05:19.039 --> 01:05:19.679
You like that?
01:05:19.840 --> 01:05:20.239
Love it.
01:05:20.400 --> 01:05:20.639
Love it.
01:05:20.800 --> 01:05:22.239
Love everything Dan Quinn's about.
01:05:22.400 --> 01:05:25.119
I want to just go over a couple affirmations since the game's tomorrow.
01:05:25.360 --> 01:05:25.599
Sure.
01:05:25.760 --> 01:05:27.119
And I do you mind repeating after me?
01:05:27.280 --> 01:05:28.320
Do you feel like doing some affirmations?
01:05:28.480 --> 01:05:29.039
I love affirmations.
01:05:29.199 --> 01:05:30.000
Okay, cool.
01:05:30.239 --> 01:05:31.039
Alright, ready?
01:05:31.119 --> 01:05:31.440
Yep.
01:05:31.599 --> 01:05:32.239
I am worthy.
01:05:32.480 --> 01:05:33.280
I am worthy.
01:05:33.519 --> 01:05:34.719
I can have a winning team.
01:05:34.960 --> 01:05:36.400
I can have a winning team in Had.
01:05:38.639 --> 01:05:40.559
That's like one of those passive aggressions.
01:05:40.719 --> 01:05:41.039
How dare you?
01:05:41.119 --> 01:05:42.079
That's like one of those passive aggressions.
01:05:42.320 --> 01:05:43.039
It's like we've won before.
01:05:43.280 --> 01:05:44.239
We've had winning seasons.
01:05:44.400 --> 01:05:46.000
We two years ago made the NFC championship.
01:05:46.800 --> 01:05:47.679
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
01:05:47.760 --> 01:05:48.079
Damn.
01:05:48.239 --> 01:05:48.719
All right.
01:05:48.960 --> 01:05:49.760
I believe.
01:05:49.920 --> 01:05:51.360
You know what this actually reminds me of?
01:05:51.440 --> 01:05:52.639
Uh the I believe.
01:05:52.880 --> 01:05:54.000
I believe that we will win.
01:05:54.159 --> 01:05:55.519
The min the US mints.
01:05:55.920 --> 01:05:56.960
I believe that we will I love it.
01:05:57.199 --> 01:05:58.400
I don't like that chant.
01:05:58.480 --> 01:05:59.519
It's so long.
01:06:00.159 --> 01:06:01.119
Welcome to Soccer Chance.
01:06:01.679 --> 01:06:03.039
They're singing full ballads in it.
01:06:04.079 --> 01:06:04.480
Nobody knows what you're doing.
01:06:04.719 --> 01:06:06.880
No, but England, no, England's got it going.
01:06:07.599 --> 01:06:08.480
That's what soccer is.
01:06:08.559 --> 01:06:09.199
It's chance.
01:06:09.440 --> 01:06:09.679
Okay.
01:06:09.840 --> 01:06:13.440
I believe that I can have an owner that won't end up being racist.
01:06:13.760 --> 01:06:15.280
I believe I have an owner that won't end up being racist.
01:06:15.440 --> 01:06:16.079
I believe that free too.
01:06:16.159 --> 01:06:17.280
Jaden Daniels will have a bounce back year.
01:06:17.440 --> 01:06:19.119
Jane Daniels will have a bounce back year.
01:06:19.519 --> 01:06:26.559
I am no longer allowing Dan Snyder to control my emotions.
01:06:27.039 --> 01:06:29.840
I am no longer allowing Dan Snyder to control my emotions.
01:06:37.039 --> 01:06:37.440
Sure.
01:06:38.639 --> 01:06:42.719
Well, actually, do you speak of, we have a photo of Dan Snyder.
01:06:43.440 --> 01:06:45.119
Would you like to spit on him?
01:06:46.239 --> 01:06:47.440
Or whatever you want to do.
01:06:48.000 --> 01:06:48.639
You could rip it.
01:06:51.280 --> 01:06:51.440
Okay.
01:06:52.800 --> 01:07:01.519
Let's go! Let's go! That's cardstock, baby! Come on! Come on! How many more times?
01:07:03.840 --> 01:07:04.639
Are you just gonna hand it to me?
01:07:04.719 --> 01:07:05.360
I don't want to touch him.
01:07:06.400 --> 01:07:07.840
Yeah, I don't want to touch his fucking face.
01:07:08.480 --> 01:07:10.719
Unfortunately, you saying that will not stop him from touching you.
01:07:11.039 --> 01:07:11.760
Oh God.
01:07:11.840 --> 01:07:12.480
You know what?
01:07:12.639 --> 01:07:13.840
And just when I thought.
01:07:14.880 --> 01:07:15.599
That's disgusting.
01:07:16.000 --> 01:07:16.400
Quote me.
01:07:16.559 --> 01:07:16.960
Bad guy.
01:07:17.119 --> 01:07:17.280
Yeah.
01:07:17.440 --> 01:07:19.920
Um, okay, so I want you to practice your affirmations.
01:07:20.159 --> 01:07:20.320
Okay.
01:07:20.480 --> 01:07:22.000
Okay, I want you to practice your exposures.
01:07:22.239 --> 01:07:22.480
Sure.
01:07:22.719 --> 01:07:25.280
Because the more you practice them, the less they feel like they hold weight.
01:07:25.519 --> 01:07:26.800
And the less that they are true.
01:07:27.119 --> 01:07:27.280
Right?
01:07:27.679 --> 01:07:29.599
That's I I believe I actually do believe that.
01:07:29.760 --> 01:07:32.000
Um I believe positive thinking gets you far.
01:07:32.239 --> 01:07:32.800
It does.
01:07:33.039 --> 01:07:34.719
Um, and you have to in sports.
01:07:34.800 --> 01:07:40.079
Um, okay, so before you go, um I want you to well, first of all, I do think you're fine.
01:07:40.159 --> 01:07:42.159
I think you're gonna be f I actually think you're fine emotionally.
01:07:42.239 --> 01:07:47.679
I also think, not that you're you you need my uh opinion on this, but I do think you're fine.
01:07:47.920 --> 01:07:52.079
And I do think that you I think the commanders are up.
01:07:52.159 --> 01:07:52.800
I'd be honest.
01:07:52.880 --> 01:07:58.559
I think the commanders are gonna be sneaky this year in a way that I'm not saying they're gonna go all the way.
01:07:58.800 --> 01:08:04.000
I don't believe that, but I I think that they're not gonna be the I don't think they're gonna be fourth in the NFC East.
01:08:04.320 --> 01:08:11.519
Yeah, it's it again, it's a mystery season, and and that's the way we're all going into it, but like there's a lot to there's a lot to be excited about.
01:08:12.079 --> 01:08:13.360
There's uh There is.
01:08:14.800 --> 01:08:15.360
We we'll see.
01:08:15.440 --> 01:08:17.920
We also had a look, it's been a weird offseason.
01:08:18.720 --> 01:08:20.159
We had a really weird training camp.
01:08:20.319 --> 01:08:22.399
So it's like Wait, what happened to training camp?
01:08:23.119 --> 01:08:26.479
Um we What's going down in training camp?
01:08:26.560 --> 01:08:27.279
Are people fucking?
01:08:27.600 --> 01:08:41.279
No, we just had a um we had a training camp where it started great and everything was good, and then Nikki don't know her name, but she's one of our bloggers, basically tweeted out of nowhere just like this offensive line can't stop anything.
01:08:41.600 --> 01:08:45.760
And that kind of set off the fan base of like, excuse me.
01:08:46.159 --> 01:08:48.079
And it was like our entire team was injured.
01:08:48.159 --> 01:08:50.399
There was a period where it was like 20 players were like out.
01:08:50.640 --> 01:08:55.600
Well, that was a lot, so we were like, and so we all were like, okay, we can't block anything.
01:08:55.680 --> 01:09:03.279
It was so there was like a real doom period, and then and we lost particularly our last preseason game, was like just in humiliation.
01:09:03.520 --> 01:09:04.399
I don't believe in preseason.
01:09:05.279 --> 01:09:07.520
That's the thing, it's like but that's the whole thing is it doesn't matter.
01:09:07.760 --> 01:09:12.479
No one's not everyone's playing, nobody cares, and then everybody's healthy now.
01:09:12.880 --> 01:09:16.479
Everybody's healthy, like there was a whole thing where they were like, why aren't we getting another tackle?
01:09:16.560 --> 01:09:18.640
The the the Reddit was like, why aren't we getting another tackle?
01:09:18.720 --> 01:09:22.239
We need another tackle, we need another center, and then it was like, everybody's healthy.
01:09:22.479 --> 01:09:23.439
Mine is tunsil.
01:09:23.600 --> 01:09:24.159
Everybody's healthy.
01:09:24.319 --> 01:09:24.880
We're gonna be okay.
01:09:25.039 --> 01:09:26.720
Yeah, I think I have a couple players on here that are injured.
01:09:26.800 --> 01:09:27.439
Let me tell you real quick.
01:09:28.000 --> 01:09:29.039
It's really just tunsil.
01:09:29.199 --> 01:09:30.319
Is it just tunsil?
01:09:30.720 --> 01:09:31.359
Oh, you're right.
01:09:31.520 --> 01:09:32.640
Torn triceps.
01:09:32.720 --> 01:09:32.880
Yeah.
01:09:32.960 --> 01:09:34.479
But you know who you have that I'm really jealous of?
01:09:34.560 --> 01:09:35.600
And I I I miss him.
01:09:35.680 --> 01:09:37.439
And I want you to I want you to take good care of him.
01:09:37.520 --> 01:09:40.560
And he's a fun player to have is Leo Chanel.
01:09:40.720 --> 01:09:42.000
Oh, I'm very excited about Chanel.
01:09:42.159 --> 01:09:45.680
Because I remember when he like got off the plane, they were like, What do you want to do?
01:09:45.760 --> 01:09:47.199
And he was like, I just want to fucking hit somebody.
01:09:47.279 --> 01:09:47.600
Yeah, yeah.
01:09:47.760 --> 01:09:49.279
And I'm like, that's the kind of guy I want on my team.
01:09:49.520 --> 01:09:52.800
We have an amazing-just wanna fucking hit any, and he meant it in a football way.
01:09:53.039 --> 01:09:53.359
Like, you know?
01:09:53.439 --> 01:09:53.680
Oh, yeah.
01:09:54.000 --> 01:09:54.800
I just want to fucking hit somebody.
01:09:55.359 --> 01:09:59.760
We've got a we've got we got some dogs on the edge and uh an outside linebacker area.
01:09:59.840 --> 01:10:00.239
We got some.
01:10:00.560 --> 01:10:02.079
Well, you got you got some dogs and you got some hogs.
01:10:02.239 --> 01:10:04.079
We got some dogs a little concerned about our secondary.
01:10:04.239 --> 01:10:05.039
Dogs up front.
01:10:06.479 --> 01:10:07.920
Sneak in the stuff you're worried about.
01:10:08.079 --> 01:10:08.479
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:10:08.720 --> 01:10:10.479
Absolute firepower up front.
01:10:10.640 --> 01:10:12.319
Secondary does seem to be a concern.
01:10:12.560 --> 01:10:14.800
Uh we got some dogs at the quarterback.
01:10:14.880 --> 01:10:15.840
Not sure about our offensive line.
01:10:16.000 --> 01:10:17.520
But we got a dog in Jaden Daniels.
01:10:21.119 --> 01:10:22.319
We uh we're fine.
01:10:22.640 --> 01:10:25.520
Okay, so before you go, yeah, this is uh who had it worse.
01:10:25.600 --> 01:10:26.479
Sorry, who has it worse?
01:10:26.560 --> 01:10:44.239
So I want you, you got a minute, and I want you to tell me uh other than the commanders, and I'm gonna have we're gonna have uh Glizzy Queen over here um time you other than the commanders, I want you to say who which team do you think has it worse than you and why?
01:10:44.399 --> 01:10:45.359
And let me know when you're ready.
01:10:46.560 --> 01:10:46.960
I'm ready.
01:10:48.479 --> 01:10:49.439
Roll tide, let's go.
01:10:50.079 --> 01:10:55.199
Uh there's only one answer to this question to me, and that is the the the Buffalo fans.
01:10:55.439 --> 01:11:00.479
Buffalo fans are the are are obviously the fan base that we all think of and we just feel bad for.
01:11:00.880 --> 01:11:02.720
They've been through absolute hell and back.
01:11:02.880 --> 01:11:10.159
It's a fan base that boy are they really like just a great fan base that's earned a championship and they haven't gotten it.
01:11:10.720 --> 01:11:18.399
And you know, even though we're not supposed to talk about other sports, like I did get the 2019 Nationals, I did get the 2018 caps.
01:11:18.560 --> 01:11:21.359
That city has not had a championship in uh forever.
01:11:21.600 --> 01:11:30.800
You're allowed to talk about the Buffalo the Buffalo Bills fans absolutely if there's any fan base that could get it outside of us, I hope for the Bills fans that it's this year.
01:11:31.199 --> 01:11:33.920
Well, it's not gonna be this year, because if it was any year, it was gonna be last year.
01:11:34.000 --> 01:11:35.279
So I actually don't think it's gonna be this year.
01:11:35.359 --> 01:11:37.359
But I'm not saying it will be.
01:11:37.760 --> 01:11:38.800
But they have Josh Allen.
01:11:38.960 --> 01:11:39.359
Here's the thing.
01:11:39.439 --> 01:11:41.600
You have a Josh Allen, you got a shot.
01:11:42.079 --> 01:11:42.800
You'd think.
01:11:42.960 --> 01:11:44.479
You'd think, but that's why I agree with you.
01:11:44.560 --> 01:11:45.760
I think they do have it worse than you.
01:11:45.920 --> 01:11:46.159
Yeah.
01:11:46.399 --> 01:11:47.760
Thank you for doing that, by the way.
01:11:48.000 --> 01:11:48.640
Did you have more?
01:11:48.800 --> 01:11:49.920
No, that's what that was it.
01:11:50.000 --> 01:11:50.239
That's it.
01:11:50.319 --> 01:11:51.840
I mean, honestly, I think that was a good one.
01:11:51.920 --> 01:11:52.479
No, no, it was great.
01:11:52.560 --> 01:11:52.800
It was great.
01:11:53.279 --> 01:12:04.399
All you have to say is, but you know, all you have to say would be Buffalo Bill is a bit like, and that's why when you were like just because I was like, when you get into I was actually talking to Claude about this on the way here.
01:12:04.640 --> 01:12:06.079
You're talking about Claude as an AI Claude?
01:12:06.239 --> 01:12:08.720
Yeah, Claude and I were having a chat about this on the way here.
01:12:08.960 --> 01:12:11.039
About uh I'm hearing some groans.
01:12:11.199 --> 01:12:12.399
I'm hearing some groans.
01:12:12.640 --> 01:12:13.680
Uh you were doing great.
01:12:13.760 --> 01:12:14.640
You were doing great, Danny.
01:12:14.720 --> 01:12:15.600
Let's go ahead and wrap you up.
01:12:15.760 --> 01:12:20.479
Uh as long as it's not doing anything creative, Claude's very helpful.
01:12:20.640 --> 01:12:22.079
Just don't let it do anything creative.
01:12:22.640 --> 01:12:23.600
It does do math for me.
01:12:23.760 --> 01:12:24.960
It does math for me.
01:12:25.039 --> 01:12:26.399
I'm not gonna it helps me.
01:12:26.560 --> 01:12:27.199
It helps with recipes.
01:12:27.680 --> 01:12:33.359
Don't get me started on the amount of great use we could get out of AI if people stop trying to do it for the dumbest things.
01:12:34.000 --> 01:12:34.319
Yeah.
01:12:34.560 --> 01:12:37.520
It's not for customer service, it's for it's for fucking grids.
01:12:37.920 --> 01:12:42.800
Sometimes, sometimes I need to know how to break down this recipe so I can make it for my girlfriend.
01:12:43.039 --> 01:12:43.520
That's the thing.
01:12:43.600 --> 01:12:45.119
That's what it does well.
01:12:45.359 --> 01:12:59.359
When it it's not for customer service, it's not for art, but yeah, if you need if I'm if I'm driving here and I go, I was like, statistically, what team has it the worst and what city has it the worst?
01:12:59.520 --> 01:13:04.479
And that was the question I have was what city of the of the major four sports has had it the worst?
01:13:04.720 --> 01:13:05.760
And that was the question I asked it.
01:13:06.159 --> 01:13:06.479
No.
01:13:07.279 --> 01:13:09.039
Wait, hold on.
01:13:09.840 --> 01:13:10.960
It's not Cleveland.
01:13:11.680 --> 01:13:12.800
What city has it the worst?
01:13:13.039 --> 01:13:13.600
Of all four sports?
01:13:15.439 --> 01:13:16.319
Okay, of all sports.
01:13:16.399 --> 01:13:17.199
We're not just talking about football.
01:13:17.439 --> 01:13:19.279
Four major sports football, baseball, uh, basketball.
01:13:19.680 --> 01:13:20.399
And it's not Buffalo.
01:13:20.640 --> 01:13:23.760
It's not Buffalo, because they only have two sports, so they only get two seasons a year.
01:13:23.920 --> 01:13:24.880
Other teams, other cities have four.
01:13:25.359 --> 01:13:27.439
Like Atlanta because the Falcons and the Hawks.
01:13:27.920 --> 01:13:31.279
Uh Atlanta have the Braves that won.
01:13:33.760 --> 01:13:34.239
Who is it?
01:13:34.560 --> 01:13:37.359
You see, this is what this is this was a fun on the way here.
01:13:37.680 --> 01:13:38.560
Minneapolis.
01:13:39.520 --> 01:13:40.399
Vikings.
01:13:41.039 --> 01:13:41.600
Twins.
01:13:42.239 --> 01:13:42.560
Oh.
01:13:44.159 --> 01:13:47.680
Vikings, twins, I guess it's wild, wild Timberwolves.
01:13:47.840 --> 01:13:50.720
I guess it's not it's since 1991, the twins.
01:13:51.119 --> 01:13:54.079
I guess maybe for me, it's like because I they're always sort of kind of there.
01:13:56.319 --> 01:13:58.640
That's kind of because they're like kind of like always right there.
01:13:58.880 --> 01:13:59.199
Totally.
01:13:59.359 --> 01:14:07.600
I I it made me think because like when I think, because also just the Hawks and the Falcons have well, I guess the Hawks have been better these days, but like the Hawks and the Falcons have been so bad that I'm like, totally.
01:14:07.840 --> 01:14:12.399
And I think there's something to the every one of your teams sucks, but the Braves are good.
01:14:12.640 --> 01:14:14.079
You ever want to look up stats?
01:14:14.319 --> 01:14:15.920
Well, you can with Claude.
01:14:16.159 --> 01:14:17.760
Claude helps you look up stats.
01:14:18.479 --> 01:14:19.600
Great for stats.
01:14:19.760 --> 01:14:21.119
Uh don't let it near art.
01:14:21.439 --> 01:14:22.560
And we'll be right back to you.
01:14:22.640 --> 01:14:24.960
Uh and there, and they are paying me very good.
01:14:25.119 --> 01:14:27.039
Um and paying you, because I'm giving you kickback, remember?
01:14:27.119 --> 01:14:27.600
Oh, yeah, that's right.
01:14:28.560 --> 01:14:29.039
Um, okay.
01:14:29.119 --> 01:14:30.159
Well, that's what you okay.
01:14:30.239 --> 01:14:36.560
So Bill Buffalo Bills and you found But I statistically the uh the uh Minneapolis was the winner.
01:14:36.800 --> 01:14:37.039
Okay.
01:14:37.119 --> 01:14:40.800
But you feel in your heart it's the if we're going off one one team, one fan base, yeah.
01:14:41.039 --> 01:14:41.199
Bills.
01:14:41.359 --> 01:14:41.840
Yeah, 100%.
01:14:42.159 --> 01:14:43.600
Um okay, this has been awesome.
01:14:43.760 --> 01:14:44.319
You're awesome.
01:14:44.880 --> 01:14:47.520
You've made me fall in love with the commanders.
01:14:47.680 --> 01:14:52.000
Um, and uh I just do you wanna do you wanna plug anything?
01:14:52.079 --> 01:14:53.279
Is there anything you got going on?
01:14:53.600 --> 01:14:54.000
Yes.
01:14:54.159 --> 01:14:55.920
Um uh yes.
01:14:56.079 --> 01:14:58.000
Uh other than looking great in Burgundy.
01:14:58.239 --> 01:14:58.960
I appreciate that.
01:14:59.119 --> 01:15:00.000
That means the world.
01:15:00.159 --> 01:15:02.640
Um it's a hard color to pull off sometimes, honestly.
01:15:02.880 --> 01:15:03.039
Yeah.
01:15:03.279 --> 01:15:04.800
Well listen, we we do our best.
01:15:04.880 --> 01:15:05.279
That's it.
01:15:05.520 --> 01:15:09.039
It's uh this is this this is their alternate jersey.
01:15:09.359 --> 01:15:17.760
Um uh you can uh uh Dannyjollis.com, uh I'm on tour at Danny Jolly on social media, the best.
01:15:18.000 --> 01:15:21.920
And most importantly, uh stand-up comedy is like hockey.
01:15:23.600 --> 01:15:24.800
Hockey, I'm gonna stick with hockey.
01:15:25.039 --> 01:15:26.319
Stand-up comedy is like hockey.
01:15:26.479 --> 01:15:29.279
It is fun to watch on TV, but it is so much better in person.
01:15:29.439 --> 01:15:34.720
So please look up your local comedy club, look up the next four comics coming on a weekend.
01:15:34.880 --> 01:15:39.279
Make sure that you can look them up and find ten minutes uninterrupted of stand-up from them.
01:15:39.439 --> 01:15:42.640
No crowd work, no hecklers, ten minutes uninterrupted of material.
01:15:42.800 --> 01:15:45.359
If you can find that, go buy a ticket, go see live stand-up.
01:15:45.520 --> 01:15:48.319
You you don't realize how great it is until you see it and you'll never stop going.
01:15:48.800 --> 01:15:53.439
Fuck yeah! Saving the saving the sport, saving the sport, saving the art.
01:15:53.600 --> 01:15:55.359
Uh, one speech at a time.
01:15:55.439 --> 01:15:55.760
Thank you.
01:15:55.840 --> 01:15:56.800
Thank you for coming, Danny.
01:15:56.960 --> 01:15:57.520
Thank you for having me.
01:15:57.600 --> 01:16:00.720
And this has been Tailgate Therapy and uh Cheats Kingdom.
01:16:01.439 --> 01:16:02.560
Go Commanders.
01:16:02.720 --> 01:16:04.560
Left hand up, left left hand up.
01:16:05.039 --> 01:16:05.520
How's it going?
01:16:05.680 --> 01:16:06.560
Left hand up.
01:16:06.800 --> 01:16:07.439
Who are we?
01:16:07.680 --> 01:16:10.720

01:16:11.039 --> 01:16:12.000
