00:00 (upbeat music)
00:02 - All right, it's the rundown.
00:04 Wednesday, February 28th.
00:06 We got me, Rico, Hubs.
00:09 No ad today, but you know what?
00:11 Let's just shout out the Varsity Store in general.
00:13 A lot of good St. Patrick's Day merch on there.
00:15 I think if you order by March 3rd, guaranteed delivery.
00:19 You guys have any big St. Patrick's Day plans?
00:21 March, you know, March is--
00:22 - We got the parade on Sunday.
00:23 Staten Island Parade on Sunday.
00:25 - Already?
00:26 - Yeah, first Sunday in March.
00:27 - Huh.
00:28 - Last year, St. Patrick's Day was like
00:30 the first day of March, second day of March Madness.
00:32 That's just like--
00:33 - The best.
00:34 - Fucking insane.
00:35 - March Madness is too late this year.
00:37 - Uh.
00:38 - Dude, it's--
00:39 - No, not really.
00:40 - March Madness should only be in March.
00:42 This should be, the final four shouldn't be in April.
00:44 - Oh yeah, it should.
00:45 - No.
00:46 - The final four could be like April 2nd.
00:48 - No, come on, 'cause that kicks off April.
00:51 - March 6th--
00:52 - April's a garbage month if it doesn't have the final four.
00:54 - The beginning of March Madness year--
00:55 - March 21st is too late for the first day of March Madness.
00:57 - That's insane.
00:58 That's crazy.
01:00 - Yeah, but the two, the weeks that people,
01:02 when do you stop caring about it?
01:03 You don't really pay attention during the final four.
01:04 - No, I pay attention--
01:05 - You're not as dialed in.
01:06 - I watch college basketball from the round of '64
01:10 through the championship.
01:11 - Yeah.
01:12 - Right.
01:12 - That's it.
01:13 - But the first two weeks being in March is fine.
01:14 - Those are obviously the best,
01:15 I mean the best weekend is the first weekend, obviously.
01:18 - Yeah, I actually think you,
01:20 a lot of years you can make a case,
01:21 championship week is better than the first four days
01:24 of the tournament.
01:25 - Conference championship?
01:26 Oh, that's only, it's completely slept on.
01:28 It's just too much.
01:29 - Tommy, it's wire through wire.
01:31 There are games, there's a double header,
01:33 there's like the NXT championship
01:35 and then you go out west to like the summit on Monday night.
01:38 Tuesday night has the Patriot and something else,
01:40 double digit, double dip.
01:42 And then you go Wednesday, all day, day games.
01:44 Thursday, all day, day games.
01:45 Friday, day games.
01:46 - The difference though is like,
01:47 it's not viewed as like a holiday.
01:49 Like March, the first four days are truly a holiday,
01:51 but like I get what you're saying.
01:52 If you're a college basketball junkie,
01:53 like conference tournament week is insane.
01:54 - Yeah, there are people who like going out to Vegas
01:57 and sports books more during championship week
02:01 than the first four days of the tournament as well.
02:03 - I mean, we'll jump around a little bit.
02:05 It's on the run down.
02:05 Basketball buzzer beaters last night,
02:07 Kentucky, Reed Shepard,
02:09 it's a floater at the buzzer to beat Mississippi State.
02:11 - He's a motherfucker.
02:12 - Nevada's Jared Lucas,
02:13 buzzer beater from beyond half court to beat Colorado State.
02:16 NBA, Max Strauss hit one too.
02:18 I mean, I feel like you guys follow
02:20 college basketball a little.
02:21 - Yeah, we were saying, I think the Mountain West
02:23 is a very compelling conference
02:24 'cause they get this bad rap of like,
02:26 oh, they can't win in the tournament.
02:27 They played for a national title last year,
02:29 you know, and granted they've been underperforming
02:32 in the tournament, but I think the major problem
02:34 is around this time of year or mid February,
02:36 they have like six or seven teams that are looking at bids
02:39 and then they all beat each other up
02:40 and it ends up hurting them
02:41 and they only get three or four teams in.
02:43 It's conference is really good.
02:44 I think that conference is better than the ACC.
02:46 I think it's better than obviously the A10.
02:49 Like it's right there below.
02:51 - It's better than the Big 10.
02:53 - Yeah, I didn't want to go that far and piss myself off,
02:55 but the more you look at it.
02:56 - I watch, I find myself watching the Mountain West
02:59 and those like top six, seven teams more than I should.
03:02 - Top 25.
03:03 - They fall, they fluctuate a lot of like.
03:05 - The guy I said was gonna win coach of the,
03:07 was the best hire in April is up for national coach
03:11 of the year, Danny Sprinkle.
03:12 - For what team?
03:13 - Utah State, they're ranked.
03:15 He's from Montana State.
03:18 - Colorado State was ranked at one point,
03:20 New Mexico was ranked for a while, they fell off a little.
03:22 - San Diego State's ranked, they got the goods.
03:26 Nevada's really good, playing really well.
03:28 Boise's playing well.
03:30 - I was telling you, Lucas,
03:32 the guy who hits the half court buzzer beater,
03:35 that guy has been in college I think since 2019.
03:38 He was on the Oregon State team
03:40 that we got an eighth of a Bitcoin on
03:42 during bracket busters.
03:43 Which was, what's that?
03:45 - Which is ripping today, Bitcoin.
03:46 - Okay, yeah, yeah, that too.
03:48 - That's still a while, you still got it?
03:49 - Yeah.
03:51 - I do not.
03:51 But that guy's been around forever.
03:54 His celebration after he hits the half court shot,
03:56 he just does a victory lap screaming
03:59 at all the Colorado State people in full villain mode.
04:02 That's what college, but obviously Storm in the Court
04:05 is getting all the, but that kind of shit,
04:07 being a villain against Marshall Henderson shit,
04:09 recent clap against--
04:10 - The fucking gifts of Marshall Henderson going like this.
04:13 - It wasn't to that degree, but that's gotta be
04:16 the best fucking feeling in the world.
04:18 - Oh yeah.
04:19 - But give me three teams you think
04:21 could win the championship.
04:23 - If in terms of like, right now,
04:27 I think the group of the three you would pick
04:30 is Houston, Purdue, or UConn.
04:33 For argument's sake, I think, I mean, listen,
04:34 I have friends on UConn, love the Hurleys.
04:37 I'm gonna take Houston, just 'cause
04:38 they're motherfuckers on defense.
04:40 - Okay.
04:41 - So I'll take, I like them, and I think two real sleepers
04:43 of teams who can make runs right now are Baylor and Florida.
04:48 Baylor at like 35 to one, or 30 to one, and Florida--
04:52 - They gave Houston hell over the weekend.
04:53 - Yeah, Baylor's really good, shoots the ball from deep.
04:55 - Oh yeah, big guy in a free throw.
04:56 - There's been five or six coaches who can win a championship
04:58 or current coaches who've won championships, maybe seven.
05:01 Scott Drew is on that list, obviously,
05:04 and I think Florida's just like a motherfucker team
05:06 and a good conference.
05:07 - A few months ago, I put a future on Texas.
05:11 Any shot at that?
05:12 - They don't play any defense.
05:13 - Well, the only reason is I found out Max Abniss
05:15 was on that team.
05:16 - Aisman.
05:16 - The oral rabbit team.
05:17 - I was like, "Oh, this guy's good, see your guard."
05:19 - Another one of our bracket buster hall of famers.
05:22 - I was like, "Well, this team, good value there."
05:24 - They're gonna be one of the last four teams
05:26 in the tournament this year.
05:28 - They'd be with me as well.
05:29 - I have such a regret, I think the Bitcoin year,
05:31 me, Marty, and Jerry had one of the first picks,
05:34 and we made a list, and we weren't expecting,
05:36 it was one of those, I guess we were expecting
05:37 to go like 10th, so like, "All right, here are our teams,"
05:40 and we went like third, and they were all available,
05:43 so we shit our pants, we're like, "Wait, wait, wait,
05:45 "we didn't know what the fuck to do."
05:47 We took Memphis, who gave Gonzaga a thrill
05:49 in the first one, but we should've just taken Michigan.
05:51 - That was when we went oral Roberts,
05:52 we were like the last ones to pick.
05:53 - Yeah.
05:54 - And then--
05:55 - Should've taken Michigan.
05:56 - No, oral Roberts was last year, they didn't win.
05:59 - That was the second time we've taken them.
06:00 - Oh, that's right, we took oral Roberts twice.
06:03 - With Max Aisman.
06:04 - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
06:05 - Yeah, we tried to run that back.
06:07 - Sweet 16, maybe?
06:07 - Yeah, whatever, but they made it.
06:09 And then the oral Roberts year,
06:11 do you remember that craziness?
06:12 We had three teams at once, because people wouldn't tweet,
06:16 and then we got like--
06:17 - But then Rhee and Fran got--
06:19 - Oral Roberts from us.
06:20 - Yeah, and then--
06:20 - We made it with Oregon State.
06:22 - They took a team that won,
06:23 and then we were given Oregon State,
06:25 and we were like--
06:26 - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
06:27 - But then Rhee and Fran won earlier in the day,
06:28 and we were like, "Are we just not gonna
06:30 "fucking advance now?"
06:30 - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
06:31 - But then we did, 'cause of Lucas.
06:32 - Yeah, that was, when Ev found out that the kid Lucas
06:35 was on the Oregon State team,
06:36 he was betting them through the Pac-12 tournament.
06:39 Duggs was like, "You know that kid was on Oregon State?"
06:41 He was like this, like, "My brother."
06:42 Like, it was like a fraternity.
06:44 - But I'm telling you--
06:45 - He loved that team.
06:45 He bought their merch.
06:46 He rode them for eight games.
06:47 - You talk about--
06:48 - There are gonna be teams like that
06:49 at conference tournament that start,
06:50 and you could just catch 'em.
06:51 Oregon a couple years ago, when they did it too,
06:53 when they were a 12 seed, they won the Pac-12,
06:55 like, teams can just get hot in these weeks and just run.
06:58 - You talk about teams that are like,
06:59 they're not gonna be ranked,
07:00 but that Nevada team, they were without Blackshear,
07:02 who was their second best player last night,
07:04 winning on the road.
07:05 That team has been ripping for about a month now.
07:07 I would not pick against them in a conference.
07:09 - I wish I paid more attention this year.
07:11 - I love them.
07:12 - Well--
07:12 - I love college basketball.
07:13 I love the tournament, but I just,
07:15 I don't know, I don't feel like watching games
07:16 in fucking November and December.
07:17 - No, no, that's fair.
07:19 It's just on.
07:19 I just pass the time for it.
07:20 - I'm gonna read a few articles soon of like,
07:22 here's what you need to know from March Madness,
07:24 and then boom, I'll be right there.
07:24 - Yeah, I think you could pick, pick and pop.
07:26 - The star power this year is--
07:27 - I think the forward conference games are great too.
07:30 - Yeah.
07:30 - Like, on the campus, like the Patriot game,
07:32 and the fucking Ivy is played neutral, whatever,
07:34 but like, the Horizon Champions,
07:36 like, there's games each night
07:37 that are just fucking electric.
07:39 - The star power this year in March Madness,
07:40 though, in college basketball is like,
07:42 that's non-existent.
07:43 - I was gonna say, like--
07:44 - It's Zach Eady, and like, there's really no,
07:45 like, we watch it, but like--
07:47 - Agreed.
07:48 - We're like, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
07:49 like the good points. - It's a bad draft.
07:50 - It's a horrible, you know what I was gonna ask you?
07:51 - Eady and--
07:52 - I don't wanna spend--
07:52 - I mean, in terms of stars that you would know,
07:54 like the kid Sheed from Houston is playing really well.
07:57 - Not a star.
07:58 - Not a star, agreed, yeah, yeah, yeah.
08:00 - A star, but like, not like a household name.
08:03 - Yeah, and UConn, who got the triple-double.
08:05 - Cam Spencer.
08:06 - No, uh--
08:07 - I don't know, Newton?
08:08 - Yeah, Newton, uh--
08:09 - They have just a bunch of really good players,
08:11 and their center is huge.
08:12 - Travis Newton, is that right, something like that?
08:14 - No, it's, why am I blanking on his name?
08:16 - Hawkins?
08:17 No, he got drafted, right?
08:17 - No, UConn, he's like--
08:19 - It's not Newton, it's uh--
08:21 - Newman?
08:22 Something like that.
08:23 - I don't know, I'm blanking on his name.
08:24 - Like he's got triple-doubles or something.
08:26 - I don't know.
08:27 But they're big guys, great.
08:29 - Crazy.
08:30 - Newton.
08:32 - Tristan Newton.
08:32 - Tristan Newton.
08:33 - Yeah, you were on it, you threw me off.
08:35 But Klingon's like their big guy, he's awesome.
08:37 - By being on it?
08:38 - Yeah.
08:39 (laughs)
08:40 I was thinking of Castle, that's who I was blanking on.
08:42 - But there's just not a lot of star power.
08:43 - Agreed, no, there's not.
08:44 - That kind of takes away from it.
08:45 - Yeah, I mean, Duke doesn't, like,
08:46 Philip Wachowski's not, like, he's good,
08:48 but he's not as, Duke doesn't have a massive star--
08:49 - Not to spend so much time on College Baseball,
08:51 the Kentucky guy who hit the buzzer beater--
08:53 - Reed Shepard can be a star.
08:54 - He's, is he an NBA guy?
08:56 - I think so, yeah.
08:57 - He's a freshman, he's a weak draft, like--
08:59 - Yeah, he's in there.
09:01 Every time I watch a guy using--
09:02 - Every year, I just almost always blindly
09:04 put Kentucky into my fun.
09:05 - They're humming.
09:06 - I just like Kala Par, I feel like he could be my uncle.
09:09 I just like, I like Kentucky, I think of John Wall--
09:12 - That win last night, winning in Mississippi State
09:13 is very hard, that's a big time win for them.
09:16 - All right, moving on, Tyree Kill's getting sued
09:19 by an influencer for breaking her leg
09:22 after she embarrassed him on the field.
09:24 So, her kid was going to Tyree Kill's camp,
09:28 like, kid's football camp.
09:30 He was flirting with her, she claims to be 6'1",
09:33 he says, "No way you're 6'1", come back to my house
09:35 and I'll measure you."
09:37 Something I do with women all the time
09:38 to make sure that they're 6'4", 6'5", 6'6".
09:42 - That is your cup of tea.
09:44 - That was once, it was once, but yeah,
09:46 you know, I like to make sure they're Amazonians,
09:48 and so I get it.
09:50 - It's the liberty was looking at this girl.
09:53 - And she, and they do some football drills,
09:58 she embarrasses him, he wants to get back at her,
10:02 she goes back at him, he goes back at her
10:04 and he breaks her leg.
10:05 - What football drills could she possibly embarrass him in?
10:08 - She pushed him down, they did like Oklahoma drill.
10:11 - Jesus Christ.
10:11 - The article's hilarious.
10:12 - You're reporting for the NFL.
10:13 - The article's hilarious, 'cause it says that
10:14 she was invited over to hang, and in the next sentence
10:17 it goes, "They did offensive drills."
10:19 It's just like, it's just incredible.
10:21 - Yeah, I'll tell you what, if you're Tyree Kill
10:22 with the checkered past you have,
10:24 you can't be doing football drills against women.
10:26 You just had something you just can't be doing.
10:28 Or, if they're just gonna come at you
10:30 and you're not gonna push back, all right,
10:32 sure, but you can't go at her.
10:34 - No.
10:35 - I'll say this, also, for defenders,
10:37 I think we gotta play press coverage
10:39 and a little jamming at Tyree Hill.
10:41 - 'Cause you don't want the contact.
10:42 - The tape is out.
10:43 - Maybe hire for a scouting department,
10:45 be like, "Here's how you get in Tyree's head."
10:47 - Such a meathead thing to come over.
10:49 It's like when you used to, if you knew somebody,
10:51 you were friendly with a girl in freshman year of college
10:53 and your friend invited her over or whatever,
10:55 it's like, "Oh, you guys hung out?"
10:56 It's like, "Yeah, he showed me his high school."
10:58 (laughs)
10:59 You would hear those whispers.
11:00 Like, "Oh yeah, like, Scabelli brings a girl over
11:02 and watches him play."
11:03 - You just made me think of when you were like,
11:05 "I like to measure girls," or whatever,
11:06 you just said, there was a viral tweet yesterday
11:08 of a guy on dates, he takes them
11:11 and just sees how they throw a Frisbee
11:13 to see if they're physically coordinated.
11:14 And I could totally see you being this type of guy,
11:17 be like, "I need to see if you have it all there together
11:21 to throw a Frisbee properly."
11:22 I'll say this, throwing a Frisbee's kinda hard.
11:24 - Very hard.
11:25 - Yeah.
11:26 All right, moving on, we got NC State swimmer
11:31 stripped of conference title for celebrating too hard
11:34 with his teammate, Owen Lloyd, All-American senior,
11:36 finished first in the 1650 yard freestyle
11:38 at the ACC Championships.
11:39 His teammate, Ross Dant, finished second.
11:42 After the two finished the race,
11:43 Owen went over into Ross' lane,
11:45 which was directly next to his, and celebrated with him.
11:48 Officials disqualified Lloyd for interfering
11:50 with another swimmer.
11:52 Ross Dant, then, that guy, was awarded first place
11:54 in his post-race interview, he was like,
11:55 "That's the dumbest role in swimming,
11:57 Owen beat me fair and square, should be on that podium."
11:58 Yeah, this doesn't make,
12:00 I thought maybe they were on different teams,
12:02 like, they're on the same team, who cares?
12:04 - Also, interfere with the race is over.
12:07 - The race is over, yeah.
12:09 - It would make sense, at least, of like,
12:10 you went into the lane of a guy who's still trying to swim
12:13 and you fuck up his water and all that,
12:14 or you collide with him, he's over, he was done.
12:17 I think other people were still going,
12:18 but who cares about them?
12:19 - No.
12:20 - Like, there's no common sense applied to this rule,
12:21 and there needs to be common sense applied.
12:23 - It makes you think, it's not as dumb as like,
12:25 when Spieth got disqualified a couple weeks ago
12:27 for filling out a scorecard wrong.
12:28 - Well, that's the dumbest thing in the world in golf.
12:30 - It is, this isn't that dumb, but it's--
12:31 - We're watching the strokes, like,
12:33 they don't even need to turn in a scorecard, if you ask me.
12:35 - That's the dumbest thing in the world.
12:36 But this isn't that dumb, but it's right up there.
12:40 - Yeah, there are some dumb things in sports.
12:41 - Yeah, this makes no, I mean,
12:44 what an awkward conversation that must be
12:45 between the two in the locker room after, like, yeah.
12:48 - Well, if the-- - I don't know, what do you say?
12:49 - If the, if Dent had any brains,
12:52 he would just hand the kid the gold.
12:53 - He said, he said he was in the interview,
12:55 he said, "I'm gonna give him the medal."
12:56 - Yeah, you give him the gold.
12:57 But now Dent gets robbed of a silver,
12:59 which is kind of bullshit.
13:00 - History books.
13:02 - You know what I mean?
13:03 - Well, shouldn't they just--
13:04 - No, 'cause he got disqualified.
13:04 - Oh, he doesn't get anything.
13:05 - He doesn't get anything.
13:06 So, I don't know.
13:08 - So the fourth guy really gets--
13:09 - The trophy company should reach out or whatever
13:11 and send--
13:12 - Or the--
13:14 - Send Dent the silver.
13:15 - The company should just be like, "Nevermind."
13:16 - Exactly, yeah, it's like common sense.
13:18 - You gotta think of like,
13:19 picturing like swimming officials,
13:20 whatever they may look like,
13:22 and they're just deciding,
13:22 "Oh, he swimmed in this lane,
13:24 "like let's take away his gold."
13:25 Like, it's the dumbest fucking thing in the world.
13:27 - Yeah.
13:29 - Next up, we got the state of Texas
13:30 is suing Pornhub for failing to block access to minors.
13:34 Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton
13:37 is suing Pornhub's parent company
13:39 for allegedly violating the state law
13:40 by failing to implement age verification measure
13:42 to ensure that the child can access their website.
13:45 He wants the state court
13:47 to implement an age verification system
13:48 that requires users to upload a photo of their government ID
13:51 to prove their age.
13:52 What the fuck?
13:53 To watch porn, you gotta show a license?
13:55 - I mean, that's always been like people getting in on
13:57 early age, right?
13:59 I know the rules, but like--
14:01 - I mean, every 13 year old watches porn
14:03 'til their dick falls off.
14:04 - Imagine being in high school,
14:04 like freshman high school,
14:05 you're just not watching porn.
14:06 - Yeah, no, I mean, when I was a kid--
14:08 - Like it always like, "Are you 18?"
14:09 You would hit yes, but like,
14:11 "All right, that's all I gotta do."
14:12 - When I was a kid, like--
14:12 - When I was a kid, like--
14:13 - Did you ever watch porn with your friends?
14:15 We would watch porn together, like not jerk off,
14:17 but like, it was like, oh yeah,
14:19 like when we first were getting into the game,
14:21 when we first discovered this goal,
14:22 I was like, "We gotta watch porn."
14:23 Like, that's all we wanted to do.
14:24 - You were watching just like full videos with your pals?
14:26 - Yeah, but like none of us were jerking off,
14:28 but you know, internally we're like, "Oh my God, this is."
14:30 I think it was actually probably
14:31 before jerking off came around.
14:34 - You were almost like watching like a movie,
14:36 just appreciating the--
14:37 - Yeah, yeah, it was more like,
14:38 "Ooh, look, naked women having sex."
14:39 Like we didn't even know what to do with that yet,
14:42 you know, we were like, "Oh, here's something.
14:43 "I don't know what to do with this,
14:45 "but I like watching this."
14:47 - All right.
14:48 - A lot of guys, that was something a lot of kids did,
14:50 I think.
14:51 - I definitely got--
14:52 - Like when you turn on Pickleball for the first time,
14:53 I don't really know the rules,
14:54 but I like watching every time he was in.
14:56 - I got a call from my buddy's mom once,
14:58 blaming me because they found porn on his computer.
15:03 So he blamed me for like,
15:06 he was like, "Oh, Eric was on the computer,
15:08 "so it wasn't," and I had a conversation,
15:09 I'm like, "Nope, that was just him watching porn,
15:12 "I got blamed for it."
15:13 - You weren't even there?
15:14 - No.
15:14 - Oh, that's incredible.
15:15 - Insane.
15:16 - I'm not friends with--
15:17 - You were like the most believably--
15:19 - She like, forever, I think,
15:21 she never brought up to me,
15:22 but I always imagined that she looked at me like,
15:25 "Oh, that's the guy who used our home computer
15:27 "to watch porn."
15:28 - She called you and put you on the phone?
15:30 - No, no, no, the mom's talk.
15:32 - Right.
15:33 - And mom was like, "Yeah, I mean,
15:34 "that's just not happening."
15:36 - One--
15:37 - Yeah, that's classic time.
15:37 I actually was in porn,
15:38 we were watching Spartacus, Blood and Sand.
15:41 - Was it even the title of the porn?
15:43 - No, that was the TV show on the Xanax or something.
15:46 - Oh.
15:47 - And we were watching--
15:49 - You were ghouling?
15:49 - We were just watching to see boobs, just to see boobs.
15:51 And my friend had accidentally called his mom in his pocket
15:56 and was accidentally leaving her a voicemail
16:00 where one of us was saying something
16:02 and he just let it out like,
16:03 "I'm trying to watch some naked women here,"
16:05 like yelled it out.
16:06 And then he had to race home,
16:08 steal his mom's phone and delete the voicemail
16:11 before she could see it.
16:12 - And he did it?
16:12 He pulled it off?
16:13 - Yeah, he pulled it off successfully.
16:14 (laughing)
16:15 - As a kid, that's the scariest thing,
16:17 which is dumb, but when you're 13, 14,
16:19 the idea of your parents catching you watching porn
16:22 is like, "My life's over."
16:23 I think in reality, they'd probably be like,
16:24 "Yeah, no, fucking shit."
16:25 - You're just growing up.
16:26 - Yeah.
16:27 - You would have to lock doors and shit.
16:28 - You thought you were like--
16:29 - They used to have the code on the TV.
16:30 - You think you hear a sound and it's like,
16:32 "It's not your mom."
16:32 - You thought you were like, "Grand Theft Robbery."
16:35 - Somebody would have a hotbox,
16:36 they used to have the code on the TV,
16:38 you set the adult code, remember that?
16:41 Certain channels, you could block the game.
16:43 - I never did that.
16:44 - I never did that.
16:45 - We never had a hotbox,
16:46 but we used to block the Disney Channel for my sister
16:48 so she couldn't watch her shows.
16:50 And then my mom would flip out
16:51 and then we couldn't watch our shows.
16:52 - Damn.
16:53 - We were pricks.
16:54 We were like 10, 12 pricks.
16:55 - That's talking porn.
16:58 Next up, we got Irish mom lost an 800K disability lawsuit
17:03 due to a photo of her winning a tree throwing competition.
17:06 - Jesus Christ.
17:07 - Amelia Graviga, she was suing an insurance company
17:08 for 800K for lost wages after claiming a car accident
17:12 in 2017 left her in debilitating pain.
17:16 She said the past five years
17:17 she was unable to carry her children.
17:18 She was in pain in the midst of the lawsuit.
17:19 A picture of her throwing a fucking tree from 2018
17:23 came out, she was awarded no money.
17:25 John Rich with a banger of a viral tweet about this,
17:28 like 200,000 likes.
17:30 What are we at now?
17:31 - It's growing.
17:32 - What?
17:33 - I said, yeah, it's growing.
17:34 - What are we at?
17:35 - Is that yours?
17:36 - No.
17:37 - You didn't even embed your own tweet in the blog?
17:39 That's a major missed opportunity.
17:42 - It's too, uh.
17:43 - I do like when that happens in blogs
17:44 and it's like 18 likes on something
17:45 when someone does that on the blog.
17:46 It's very funny.
17:47 - Yeah.
17:48 Any names?
17:49 - No, not gonna do that.
17:50 - 229.
17:51 - 229.
17:52 - Almost.
17:53 - What does it say?
17:53 - 10 million views.
17:54 - Arguably, what does it say?
17:56 - Arguably the most incriminating photo in the history.
17:58 - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
17:59 - It's pretty bad.
18:00 - Yeah, it's pretty bad.
18:01 - Tough to argue that one in court.
18:01 - Yeah, I mean, even for an eight,
18:03 for somebody who wasn't claiming to be disabled,
18:06 you'd be like, my God, that's impressive.
18:07 - Good.
18:08 - No lawyer can take this case and be like,
18:09 all right, this is what we're gonna do.
18:10 Like this is.
18:11 - Right, you're dead, yeah.
18:12 - I do.
18:13 - I think like literally,
18:14 like you're better off taking like Casey Anthony's case.
18:17 Like you're better off taking a case like a serial killer.
18:20 - Yeah.
18:21 - It's like, well, this one, I can't touch this.
18:22 - This made me laugh 'cause, sorry, John.
18:24 - I was gonna say, this one's funny too
18:25 'cause she's got the date on her plaque
18:27 of the day she won it.
18:28 - Yep, pretty bad.
18:29 - Like you can't even say, oh no, that was a different.
18:31 - Just hilarious to like what's going on
18:33 and how like these types of like companies
18:36 will like investigate this shit.
18:38 - She can't fight that.
18:39 She just can't fight that anymore too.
18:41 - No.
18:41 - That just be like, you guys got me.
18:43 - Like my mom.
18:43 - Just like throw your hands up.
18:44 - My mom has a handicap placard to,
18:47 'cause she has metal bars on her back,
18:48 like from like back surgeries like long ago.
18:52 And she would be so concerned that there were people
18:55 on like across the street, like taking pictures of her,
18:58 like unloading groceries.
19:00 So she would, maybe she just did this
19:02 to really get me to unload groceries,
19:03 but like, and not do some heavy lifting
19:05 that she didn't wanna do.
19:06 She was very concerned, like they're gonna take it away.
19:08 And meanwhile, this person's throwing a tree.
19:10 - Yeah.
19:11 - This is crazy.
19:12 - She actually is kind of trying to fight it.
19:14 She says she was just trying to live a normal life.
19:16 - What about throwing trees?
19:18 Normal life.
19:19 - Mental.
19:20 Yeah.
19:21 - Huh.
19:22 - Whatever.
19:22 - Good to see New York Post making headlines
19:24 instead of a Zachy the Rat covering NIT teams.
19:28 - Oh, come on.
19:29 He's a good journalist.
19:31 - You wanna die on that hill?
19:35 - Anything after, I mean, we're there at Barstow Combine.
19:37 - You have a good time in Chicago?
19:39 - Yeah, got a couple of nice dinners.
19:41 Yeah, I mean, right now actually,
19:42 so the kind of, there's controversy over that.
19:45 We went to a nice dinner on Monday night.
19:47 - Me and Tommy still have yet,
19:48 we were out there every week and still yet to have the chillies.
19:51 - You were invited both nights.
19:51 - I know, but it's, I wanna one-on-one.
19:53 I really wanna get after you.
19:54 - All right.
19:56 Nicky Smokes, oh, Nicky Smokes the up weight big for me
20:00 after this trip.
20:00 Just talking chicks with him.
20:03 He's a fun guy to hang out with.
20:06 - I got something dropping with him,
20:07 healthy debate Thursday.
20:08 Like a sit down type thing, almost like the Eddie style.
20:10 But yeah, I mean, he's unapologetically like who he is.
20:15 He's just trying to be in the mix, have some fun.
20:16 I think he's, I always kind of entertain
20:19 when I'm around him.
20:20 - Yeah, he's, I think Big Cat said it maybe best.
20:22 He's a likable douche bag.
20:24 And we were out to dinner, he asked who wanted like shots.
20:28 He ordered five things of vodka shots, Tito's,
20:31 which, you know, I wanted a green tea shot personally.
20:34 They didn't make green tea shots there.
20:35 So I settled for the vodka shot.
20:37 Some people are like, that's a crazy move.
20:40 I don't know, I think it's fine.
20:41 Whatever, it's just, just, just, just, whatever.
20:43 - I just wouldn't do it.
20:44 I just can't do a vodka shot.
20:46 - No, I do.
20:47 - Like my body will, I can do vodka mixed drinks,
20:49 no problem.
20:50 - The only thing is he is a spread it around guy though.
20:52 Like he's a, all right, shot.
20:53 You know, he doesn't take the time of like,
20:55 what does everyone want?
20:56 Okay, you want a rumple mint?
20:57 - I appreciate the guy who's trying to get things going.
20:58 - Yeah, shots for the table.
20:59 Like yeah, he's.
21:00 - The guy who's trying to like,
21:01 all right, let's get vibes up.
21:02 - His defense was like, oh, I'm a guy, I can't buy shots.
21:05 You know, I don't think he bought the shots.
21:08 I think they just went to the bill that Francis paid.
21:10 - Oh, okay.
21:11 - I don't know if you can be like,
21:12 oh, I'm just buying shots for the boys
21:13 when you're just ordering that.
21:14 But maybe he did give the waitress her card, we didn't know.
21:17 But this is what Francis is currently trying to get to.
21:19 - He's a spread it around guy.
21:20 Like, you know, like instead of, all right,
21:22 you know what, we'll get six at,
21:23 like, all right, how many guys, four guys?
21:24 There's the over-ordering and the, it's an old school thing.
21:26 It's like a New York thing.
21:27 Like, he's a little bit like that.
21:28 I don't hate that.
21:29 - Yeah.
21:30 - Like you sit down and you're like, all right,
21:31 we'll get one of every app.
21:32 It's like, okay, you know what I mean?
21:33 Now it's, all right, there's no worrying about,
21:36 oh, I wanted this app, I wanted this.
21:37 - We elected Francis to be the leader
21:39 'cause it was kind of like an appetizer's place
21:40 where it was, she was like,
21:41 everybody gets kind of two to three plates.
21:43 And we just said, Francis, take us home.
21:44 We did a fantastic job.
21:45 And then I just kind of, I mean, crypto, we're on another,
21:49 like we get one of these every two or three years.
21:50 We're on one of these massive crypto runs
21:52 where it feels like people are gonna make
21:54 a life-changing money.
21:55 And I don't want to miss out this time.
21:56 I just bought some more Dogecoin.
21:57 I've got Bitcoin.
21:58 I've got ETH.
21:59 This is gonna keep ripping
22:02 and we're gonna go parabolic, as they say.
22:04 - You said that 50 times today.
22:05 - And I do not want to miss,
22:08 I don't want to miss the bull.
22:09 - You know what parabolic even,
22:10 like you just saying that?
22:11 - Yeah, it goes up.
22:11 - Okay.
22:12 - It's going parabolic.
22:13 So Doge is probably gonna go parabolic.
22:15 Bitcoin is like 63K.
22:18 ETH is like 3,500.
22:21 I'm just getting, I just don't want to miss this.
22:23 I don't want to miss this one.
22:23 - Nate probably tells me once a day to get Bitcoin.
22:26 - Do you not have any Bitcoin?
22:27 - No.
22:28 - I don't have any either.
22:29 - Oh, you guys are missing out.
22:30 - But then I asked him like,
22:31 when are you gonna sell?
22:32 And he was never.
22:33 I'm like, all right, well, that's not gonna work.
22:34 - Well, that is the issue is I never know what to sell.
22:37 - I bought--
22:38 - It's like being hot on a blackjack table.
22:39 You don't know when to get up.
22:40 - I bought Dogecoin for,
22:42 I bought a thousand bucks of Dogecoin
22:44 in like summer 2020 at Quig's request.
22:46 Made 500 bucks on it.
22:48 I was like, I'm out.
22:49 Classic, 500 bucks quick.
22:50 If I had held on to that,
22:52 and then the run it had in like,
22:54 it had a big run in the winter, spring of 2021,
22:57 I think it would have had about $200,000 worth.
22:59 So that makes me think I never want to sell.
23:02 Like that makes me be like, you know what?
23:05 I'm just gonna buy.
23:06 And until it becomes like,
23:07 right now I don't need that money that I have in crypto.
23:10 If I need that money, I'll sell.
23:12 Or if it becomes life-changing, I'll sell.
23:14 Until then, I'm just strapping in and I'm HDLing.
23:18 - Well, unless you could do it to get like a thing.
23:19 Like if you would have bought a condo
23:21 and then you can make money off the condo,
23:22 then you can like justify like, all right, whatever.
23:25 - Yeah, I'm not planning to buy a condo.
23:27 We're just, we have right now in the New York office,
23:29 Duck Corner, we've got just like an investment,
23:31 a little investment discussion.
23:32 - We were doing, yeah.
23:33 - Investment center.
23:34 - High yield savings accounts two weeks ago.
23:36 - Thank you for choosing the investments.
23:38 - Vanguard, you know, we're, look.
23:41 - Adult things are happening.
23:43 - Adult things are happening right here.
23:43 - Boys gotta get rich.
23:44 Your money needs to be making money for you.
23:47 Every hour, I get, you know, we get paid at Barstool,
23:50 then my money gets money.
23:51 My money has a job too, to make more money.
23:53 Then that's just how you gotta,
23:54 that's just how you gotta fucking act.
23:55 - Yep.
23:56 - And we'll all get rich.
23:58 - Sounds like a plan.
23:59 - Anyone got anything else?
24:01 - No.
24:02 - I don't think so.
24:02 - All right, see you guys tomorrow.
24:03 Leap day.
24:04 Leap day tomorrow.
24:06 - Whoa.
24:07 Whoa.
24:08 (whooshing)
