Hey y'all, it's Kelly Clarkson with Wayfair. Ever order furniture online and wonder, what if? Like, what if it doesn't fit? Uh, little to the left. Oh, wait! Yep, should've gone with Wayfair.

Visit Wayfair.com or download the Wayfair app. Wayfair, every style, every home. First of all, there's dobs who has been, I would say, on the field and off an interesting case for the Green Bay Packers talent has never been in questions.

Patriots hoping to hit it big there. The other part of this is the Patriots have been in talks at various times over the last week or so with the Philadelphia Eagles on a potential deal for AJ Brown. AJ Brown is making a lot of money. Now the Patriots, you can do a lot of different things with the cap, but at the least, what this is is a big money signing in the receiver room. At a time when many thought it would be AJ Brown. If it's not the Patriots for AJ Brown, the Eagles face the possibilities kind of going back to the drawing board. Or maybe Brown goes, you know what, I'm going to open it up and consider going to some other teams. There's a lot here. But for the Patriots and for Drake May, most importantly, they get a big time target in the receiver room. Our two Jones and Keith WEEI, that was Ian Rappaport, like five minutes after our show ended yesterday. Of course. We're all a little prone to hyperbole. I feel like it got away from him a couple of times there. A little bit. Stand out. The talent's never been in question with Romeo Dobbs. They got themselves a big time player.

All right, we're doing too much. I think we're doing too much there. I think like it's a nice signing. No, he's not terrible. Well, let's start there. Yeah, he's not. Guys, if you think he's terrible, he is not. He's not trash. He's trash player. He's a, he's a above average player. Yeah. No, we've mentioned his name a few times. And it's funny because yesterday we had Tom Kurnon. And he was like, it's AJ Brown or Bust. And then they end up signing Romeo Dobbs and giving him decent money. And he's a name, Nick brought this up yesterday. Nick was, he's pro Dobbs. He's a Dobbs head. He's a big Dobbs stand. Yeah. He was like, he thought, and I'm sure there are others. And the Patriots have to be on that list too. That in 2026, he'll be better than Steph Diggs in 2026. Whatever. That's really better than Diggs in 25. Correct. Whatever Diggs does this year, Nick believes Dobbs will outproduce Diggs this year. And that is. Which possible. Is an interesting take. I mean, he might be right. I would take the Diggs side of that, but let's see. So I also think with any of these receivers that just finished their first year or their first contract,

they're available for a reason. So the Packers, I think we're fine moving on from him. So Christian Watson's a better player. He didn't have as many receiving arts. He didn't play as many games. He's average. He's hard all the time. But he's good when he plays. But they had a lot of guys. Matthew Golden, they drafted. I don't know if he's going to be good or not. They dropped him in the first round. He was not good as a rookie, but first round pick. Jalen Reed, they have, they got the tight end. I know he got hurt, but like they have, they have few options for Jordan Love. I think they got a pick. They can't pay everybody. I think they have paid Watson. So they're picking who to pay and it wasn't this guy. So look, the patch are giving him four years, 68. I applaud them for spending. Let's see how real those numbers are. Like last year we dug in on Milton Williams' contract. It's not quite what it was publicized as. Yeah. The digs contract wasn't even close to what it was publicized as. Even the Vera Tucker trade, we've already found out. He's getting $250,000 in roster bonuses and per game bonuses to stay healthy. So like, let's see what the numbers actually are. But 468 is real money.

And I think they really had to outbid other teams to get him. He's 25. He's 62204. You know, I hear a lot of criticism about him not playing. Rapshee just said it. He's played 131316. Yeah. So he went. It's banged up during games, but comes back. Okay. I mean, so he's, that sounds like so many other football players. Sounds like somebody who's tough to me. Yeah. But so 55 for 724 and 6 touchdowns last year. The 55 were the second most in his career. 724 was the most. Six touchdowns were second most. So he's coming off a good year. I have one word to describe him. Eh. He's eh. And if he's your number one, that's not good enough. If he is in addition to what Rapshee was saying there, AJ Brown, then I really like it and then it makes sense. It's like, oh, you have dobs and booty and AJ Brown's the alpha number one. That makes sense. And that's a good receiver room. Dobs, booty, Mac Hollins with Kyle Williams sprinkled in. That receiver room won't get it done. So I like Romeo Dobs enough.

He's fine. Eh. As a signing, but you need an alpha ahead of him. If you get that, I really like the receiver room. If not, I think you're worse than you were last year with Steph Dicks. Yeah. I agree. I think he's a value add overall, but you don't want to put too much on him. So in four years, they're better than they were yesterday. Yeah. But they're worse than they were last year. Is that there? Yeah. Yeah. Certainly at that spot. Receiver. That's what I mean. Yeah. So if you look at his, and you're right, he's been pretty durable over the course of his career. If you did 17 game averages, right? So he's only actually played 17 games once. So you're sort of giving him what he would do if he played 17 games. He's averaging 58 catches a year just under 700 yards and six touchdowns. So there's some production there. He has 21 touchdowns in four seasons. Yeah. That's nothing to sneeze at. And some of his red zone metrics are good. And he gets open a lot and he gets open in the red zone, which nobody could do last year. They definitely need that. That's fair. No, that's very good. I view this as go back to 07. I believe the order was they got welker first, then stalworth, then moss.

Moss was definitely last year. He was the game at the draft. So like, well, you're like, oh, nice one. They're like, stalworth. That's pretty good. Like, you're like, I don't know if he's like a real number one, but he's like, he's fast and like, whatever. But then you got moss after the fact. And that's how maybe I view this one. Whereas if you went brown first, then dobs. I think everybody has much more of a positive reaction to the signing. Agreed. So slot imperfectly. Yeah. If it's AJ Brown, and then again, you know, dobs and booty are like your way better than two A and two B. Yeah. That's like, that's a really good receiver room. So, you know, Twitch chat is saying no one expects Romeo dobs to come in and be a true number one. Well, yeah, well, I hope not. Right now, he is. So like that. And that to me is a downgrade from Diggs last year. Maybe he'd outperformed Diggs this year. But like, Austin is one playoff game last year. Did more than Diggs is four playoff games last year. Okay. And I think dobs has had a couple of good playoff games in his life. Did you see Mike Reese's tweet? How much of that was, you know, Jordan love hucking it up to him when they were behind against the Bears and losing the Bears. They were winning against the Bears.

Is that when he was putting up his stats? Was he putting it up when they were behind Jason? Well, they were tied and he had a long catch towards the end. Got it. Mike, did you see Reese's tweet after the dobsigning? I did not. All right. So this I found strange. He said top patriots wide receivers. And then he did the thing where he had like the little football emojis. And he listed six receivers. The receivers are not listed in alphabetical order. Okay. Therefore, I assume he is doing his own mental one through six. Don't leave. Look at it. Okay. I'm not. Do you want to guess? I'm looking up his postseason game. It's a little roster, but like I said, I think he've ranked them as where he would slot them in in a depth chart. Yep. That's my guess. Because again, otherwise you would just do alphabetical order. So if I had to guess, I would go dobs wrong. I was surprised by this. What do you see out of booty? He had K. Sean booty one. I would go dobs, booty, Hollins, Williams, Chism, whoever else. Who else would I miss? I missed him pop on the tape. Oh, yeah. I'd put pop below Mac. What does he have?

He has K. Sean booty, Mac Hollins, Romeo dobs. Kyle Williams, Demarro Douglas, Efton Chism. So I have a theory on height. Well, I have a theory on maybe why he did that. Is he go because booty and Hollins are outside receivers and dobs is going to play more in the slot here in like a digs type role? Is that why he put him third? Oh, maybe. I mean, I'm just trying to think of why Reese would do that because target wise, he's definitely going to get more of the balls. But where would you put digs if he was on the list? Would you put him at the top? I would put digs one. So if you think dobs is somewhat a digs replacement and you would put dobs in there. I don't think dobs is a pure slot. I think you can play outside. I just wonder if he's projecting some of that. But yeah, that's not only what I order. Not only would I put dobs at the top. I'd put pop over Kyle Williams. What has he seen out of Kyle Williams? Well, I'm higher than that. That's I would wish. I would wish cast Kyle Williams ahead of pop probably. All right. But anyway, you look at that group and you're like, that's not a great receiver room. You know, last year, one of the advantage the Patriots had over the bills was the receiver room. Like all year long, we looked at it that way. And this year they had DJ Moore. And so now it's a little bit closer

to what Buffalo's was. Dobs in his playoff career. Nick is right. It's pretty good. Well, he had a bananas game. His first playoff game, I think, was insane. So like three games. He's a two really good ones. His first one, six for one, 51 and a touchdown against Dallas. They scored 48 points. They lost the next week to the Niners. He went four for 83 in that game. So good. By the way, losing playoff games is familiar to Romeo Dobs. Yeah. He had two catches for 13 yards in 2024 against the Eagles. So toss that one out. And then last year, eight on 11 targets, one, 24 in a touchdown. So he's one and three in the postseason, but he's produced in three out of those four games. Right, three out of four. What I would ask is, all right, well, if he's so good in these playoff games, where is he in the regular season? Well, I also, yeah, well, there's that. But to me, the offense is a mess with the floor. But it stands out to me. I think they balance it. It would probably be the answer. And maybe that's what stands out to me. The Patriots are pretty good at drafting receivers and developing some of their guys. They don't spend money though. Yeah, but don't they, they usually don't spend money on other guys.

Yeah, but the way they like for Sean Gary, for Sean Gary walked. They spent on Parsons. I mean, I know it's like a, that's like a different level of player, but like, I mean, they spend on some guys. So they lost their left tackle. They lost basically everybody from last year. Yeah, Jenkins is out, Rashid Walker's out. Maybe some of that is the after effects of paying Michael Parsons. Maybe that's why you can't keep players like that. I don't know. But they kept Devonte Adam. They chose not to keep him. His regular season numbers are pedestrian, but there's, there's a lot of mouths to feed in Green Bay. That's not the right way to put it. There's, they're all kind of similar type of receivers. And so you spread around the production. I also think if you want to be charitable to him, why does he stand out in the post season? He's good against man coverage. The Patriots struggled against man coverage last year compared to zone. And so maybe you see more of that in the post season. And he stands out more in the post season. Maybe that's why. But okay, that's Romeo Dobbs. To me, I'm not satisfied unless someone like AJ Brown is coming in. Text line is saying Brian Thomas Jr. I take him. I hate to burst your bubble. Shepter came on yesterday and said he's not available. Okay.

So you can cross him off the list. AJ Brown, I think is very much. That's what you think. Well, sure. AJ Brown, I think is very much in play. So if you get AJ Brown, great. I feel differently about the Dobbs signing. If Dobbs is the number one receiver in your room, or according to Mike Reese, the number three, I don't feel very, I don't feel very good about your, your room. Right. Meanwhile, I don't feel good at all because it stinks the high heaven about what's going on with Max Crosby. There needs to be an investigation. If you missed any of that, I don't think there does. I think you cracked the case earlier. I think we all know what happened. Yeah. The Ravens over the weekend traded two first round picks to the Raiders for Max Crosby. Tom Brady allegedly said over my dead body, would I trade Max Crosby to Mike Rable? Put that to the side for a moment. Then you get to free agency. No real offers on Trey Hendrix and his price tag drops and drops and drops and drops and drops. The Ravens wind up backing out of their deal according to the Raiders. Nothing about a failed physical according to the Raiders. That's been subsequent reporting. The Raiders are like, they backed out of the deal. Oh, they're pissed. The Ravens get their two first round picks back and then wake up today and low on the hold.

So bad. Side tray Hendrix into $28 million a year, whatever it is, four over 116 or four 116, 28 million, whatever it works out to be. And so I think it's pretty clear what happened. They saw Hendrix and his price tag dropped. They're like, wait a minute, we can get him for that and keep our two first round picks. Sorry, Raiders, you could take Max Crosby back. We're backing out of the deal. I think it's pretty clear what happened. You'd get thrown out of the Jones and Key Fantasy League for less. You would. This would be like all of a sudden, you know, a player gets to make a trade first. No, like a really good player is like on waivers. There was one trade. They enter it. Just one. They've been fanning for Pat's D. Big swing. Big swing now. Honestly, Turb should have started fanning more. Yeah, but this is so outrageous. Where like if you're another team in the league, you can't make a deal with the Ravens anymore. And they shouldn't get like it is some sort of like penalty for this. Because that is wild. They make this move. The rest of the league now thinks Max Crosby's off the board. The rest of the league starts making moves, including the Raiders, who signed a whole bunch of guys. I don't know how many of them are good, but they signed a bunch of players thinking that the Max Crosby money is off the books. So now they're like, they at least said they're keeping all those guys.

They're not going to then, you know, cry poor and get rid of those guys. I don't know what they're going to do. They said they're going to. Let's see. Good point. Because Florio wrote about that today. He's like technically there. They are not beholden to any of these new deals. It's the shadiest thing that you're going to see. Because you're like, oh, wait a minute. Trey Henderson will sign with us. We'll give him that contract. And we get our first round picks back. Yeah, let's just do that. It's like, what the hell? Should the Patriots. Should the Patriots. Who could the Patriots offer the Ravens just to back out of the deal? Who could they offer? I was about to say Drake May, but like, you know, Lamar for Drake. Come on, Gonzo. Hey, you guys want Gonzo? Two first round picks. Sorry. How about for a second round pick? Yeah. Hey, Gonzo for a second round. What do you think? Oh, I would do that. I would love to hear them on the phone with like another team trying to make a trade. They'd be like, can we trust you? Like, at all? Like, no way. So yeah, that's, that's bad. It does put Max Crosby, I guess, back on the board. We'll see what the Raiders end up doing there. But yeah, Trey Henderson stays in the division. A little rivalry game. Allegedly, the Cowboys who were the runners up in the Crosby sweepstakes. Yeah.

They're out. They moved on to Roshan Gary. Right. That's a lot of teams have done this. Okay. I don't know if like 10 years from now, because there's going to be a lot of moving parts and like, where you could have gone and what player would have gone somewhere else. So the Ravens are obviously out as a destination for Max Crosby. Yeah. The Cowboys are out. Won't be the Ravens. Are the Patriots sneakily in Brady. Brady said he wouldn't try to be here. Are the Patriots kind of in all of a sudden? Oh, they have to be. Yeah. Because I also, there's going to be a lot of, he said he said when it comes to like, was it his physical? Was it not his physical? Like, what's going on? All right. The price was two first round picks. Maybe the price is lower now. Or, you know, this also I think is good news for the Pats if they still want them. Because pick 31 might not have been as appetizing as pick whatever the one that they were getting. But, all right. That one's not on the table anymore. So what else is still available? White that be one of the best pieces that is on the board. They might be saying all the things now like, oh, like maybe we'll keep them with some of the new free agents. They don't want to keep them. Max Crosby doesn't want to play for them. That part hasn't changed.

There's no change. There's no change. They like have to say that to get any leverage and salvage whatever they can. There's no chance he's a rater. I agree with you on that. But there's no, I didn't buy the physical thing either from the, from the Gecko guy's way more hurts get funneled through trades and they figured out Hendrickson was hurt last year. And they signed him. He passed his physical. Hendrickson didn't, Hendrickson didn't finish the year healthy. Correct? No, no. So like, I mean, maybe he's further along in his rehab. But like, Hendrickson was hurt. So like, Well, that's true. He might have just been, you know, done with the Bengals. That was his injury. But yeah, he didn't finish the year healthy a year ago. So, no, I think if you're the Patriots, what does it cost to get Max Crosby? A first and a third now? I don't think it cost you a first and a second. I mean, I think the Raiders are kind of boned. Not two ones. You're out on that. No chance. Only one team offered him to first the first time around. The Cowboys were runners up at first and a second. It doesn't sound like anybody else even offered that. One and a three from Max Crosby. I would do that. I mean, I would too. Would you rather the one and the three just to make it easy?

Yeah. The one and the three call it for Crosby or the one for AJ Brown. Uh, one and three for Crosby. So now that it's one and a three, I'm with you. When it was two first round picks for Crosby, I'm like, yeah. That's too much. One and a three for Crosby. Cause you still don't really have, yeah. I'll put up with this receiver room. If I'm adding Max Crosby to the team. Right. If it's this receiver room with Dremont Jones as your top edge rusher, I'm sorry. I need AJ Brown. Take Max Crosby. But a first and a third for Crosby, I would rather pay that if that's what the, the Raiders are now going to have to accept. And it might be over just a first for AJ Brown. But again, you guys can jump in six, one, seven, seven, seven, nine, seven, ninety three, seven. That's the latest on Max Crosby. Trey Hendrixson, now Baltimore Raven, Patriots have Romeo Dobbs in the wide receiver room. It doesn't feel like they're done there. At least I hope they're not done there. Plus all our thoughts from the first hour on the Celtics and the Bruins. If you missed any of it, Odyssey app, AUDACY, get it on your phone. It's free. It's easy. You could take it with you wherever you go. I'm looking over some of the polling Keith. How's it going?

In the Jones and Keith March madness, 1990 slash early 2000s heavy metal, new metal grunge, alternative pop punk, butt rock, rock bands, bracket, up now at Jones and Keith, dead heat. And I mean a dead heat between number 11 seed, three 11, happy three 11 day, by the way. Yeah, to you as well. And the number six seeded white stripes, I see, ooh, it just shifted. But I saw 50, 50 on the nose right before that last vote just came in. The plenty of time to vote there. We'll get you another matchup coming up here later on today as we carry on in the bottom half of the grab bag region. Next up is Blink 182 and no doubt. Ooh, good matchup. Real good matchup. I bet they went on tour together at some point. I'm sure. A warp tour? Sounds like a warp tour. That's less than a half hour from now. You can vote at Jones and Keith. You can still vote in some of yesterday's matchups so there are little one-sided at this point. And then we're on to round two back to Woodstock 99 in the second round tomorrow at Jones and Keith. Billy Lanny with all the latest in trending. When we come back, what you rather?

So much going on, Keith. I haven't gotten an update on the Courtney situation. That's happening as well.

Good luck to Courtney. And on air contractions or what were happening this morning. How about that? And then they were timing them out based on the length of the breaks to which Greg said, well, I know that was an eight minute break because Wiggy had a live read in there. Well, five or six. Seven or eight. No, good call. Seven or eight is exactly the good call there. So I haven't gotten an update on that yet. But we have talked about the Celtics. They're lost last night to the spurs. Jalen Brown getting tossed from the game. People like Keith, not happy with the refs. We'll talk to Tarp. I think I know where he's coming from on this. So we'll talk to him at high noon. Pure hoops. With Tarp coming up at high noon. We can get back to the Bruins as well. Charlie McAvoy getting his teeth knocked out. Bruins get another two points at home. He gets the winner. Soldering through it. Patriots. We talked a lot of NFL free agency. The latest on Max Crosby. Trey Hendrixson now a Raven. Could the Pats get in on Max Crosby? That would require Brady actually trading him here. Never mind what's going on at wide receiver with the Pats. Still on AJ Brown. The Brian Thomas Jr. dream I think is dead. And Romeo Dobbs is in the receiver room right now.

We haven't gotten to the World Baseball Classic yet. We can. We touched on BAM out of bios 83 points last night. So a lot going on. Plus. Yeah. We got Jones and Keith awards on Friday. Oh, my God. What a thrill. Categories include grab bag of the year. Yep. Drop of the year. Madness of the year. Madness of the year. Tears of the year. Show of the year. Co-worker. Yeah. It's going to be good stuff on Friday. So stay tuned for that. We'll be on the road a week from Thursday at Jake and Joe's up in Wuburn. And the Jones and Keith 1990 slash early 2000s. Heavy metal new metal grunge alternative pop punk butt rock rock bands bracket rolls on. We got the white stripes and 311. Pitted against each other right now coming up about 15 minutes from now. Blink 182. And no doubt go vote at Jones and Keith. But would you rather Wednesday? What do we have for would you rather today, Bill? Would you rather Victor Wimbaiyama and D. Aaron Fox or SGA and Chet Holdren? Spurs, guys. I know SGA is going to win the MVP award in all likelihood and back to back year. And he's going for back to back titles. I'm still going one by ama.

I think the other guys kind of, you know, came to each other out a little bit. I like Fox. You know, castles the better player. But I decided to go point guard big man. Yeah. Chet Homegrown solid. But Victor Wimbaiyama is the guy. Like if you're doing the old like Bill Simmons trade machine or not trade machine, trade value thing. Like he's so far in a way number one. As long as you have a close second, SGA is awesome. But I take Wimby. I think I would lean that way too. I don't think I like Fox as much as you. We're talking about this earlier today. Swiper. I just like, I like where he's slotted in on that team. You just mentioned castle. Like Fox can have a quiet night. Castle can go off. The cell is a decent enough shooter and score. But then D. Aaron Fox still can get in the way back machine and play well. He was good in that game last night. I think I'd leave the spurs duo just because Wimby's such a game changer at both ends. SGA can be the MVP. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We will be knowing that I was in the last season. Um, and I always, I always was playing the Paul. I probably, repetitions. I wouldb. I'd probably like, he's always hard. True. I always, so I would lean towards the San Antonio side. What else, Billy, would you rather pick 31 in next year's first or max xby? That might not be what it cost anymore. But I still rather have max cut art. I would still make that deal. Like, I don't buy the failed physical or anything like that. I think max, cruzpy where to go. He's gotta be 29 when the season starts. So you know, what are you going to get at 31 this year. I also think the Patriots are still gonna be good next year. I don't think they're gonna pick 31 like that I'm not predicting them to make the Super Bowl But so basically it's gonna be another pick in the 20s would be my guess So you're not trading a top five pick or a top 10 pick and then you get somebody like Max Crosby to just make your defense

Maybe the best in the league. I would still do that knowing that maybe that's not what it takes But I would do it. I would as well. I think it's probably gonna be more like a first and a third if we were as we were guessing earlier So I would do that and I would prefer Max Crosby to AJ Brown in this scenario the the asking price I think has come down enough for Max Crosby. It's high enough for AJ Brown where I say all right Even though I think they really need a wide receiver More than like a pure edd rusher Crosby's just so good and so on top of this game even with the quote-unquote failed physical Yeah, that I would do that Do you think Brady's just gonna give him to the highest? Well, let me replace it Do you think Brady trades him here if the Patriots have the best offer? I think maybe now after this Ravens thing Ideally, I always thought that that he wouldn't want to send him here then there's a report that he wouldn't send him here And he didn't send him here. What do you think that is like it's not what's what? I don't think it's Rable, right? There were no report was that he wouldn't trade him to Rable. I don't think Brady And I think he made this pretty clear even though I don't think he meant to make it Sound this way, but it was very clear that he doesn't want the Patriots to be good after he left

Especially so soon after he left and You can add it all up like I don't have a dog in the fight Matthew Stafford's the MVP not Drake May like he doesn't want the team to and all the fans to be like Oh, we have this guy now like we have this guy now. Oh the team's good again teams back in the Super Bowl. This isn't like when You know, like Troy Ackman left the Cowboys and they haven't been good sense like this isn't like that like they're already back in the Super Bowl So for whatever reason he doesn't like that And so yeah make them better by sending on Max Crosby. It's not a variable thing I think it's just overall the team success. I don't think it's a variable thing either. Although that's what the quote was attributed to He's not sending him to variable. Yeah, but I think Yeah, like I'm like in putting him over the top even more or whatever I didn't view it as he is a combat relationship, but then I could be wrong. I think now Brady doesn't have a choice I think they have to get Crosby off the team if the Patriots give the best offer They're gonna have to send him to New England. I just don't think the Patriots are gonna have the best offer So who else do you think he's in the mix now? I don't know. I mean the the old betting favorite before he even got Delt to the Ravens was the Chicago Bears

So maybe but now try and remember what they did Um This offseason have they already budgeted money for a free agent pass rusher. I'm trying to remember But like it was the Bears, but yeah, you're right now teams have moved on and committed to other players And like the Cowboys moved on to Rashon Gary and traded a pick so Yeah, it's hard to go back and undo that. Yeah, so the Patriots do have the cap space to do it They have the draft capital to do it. I just don't think they're gonna do it It would be great if they end up sending him to the NFC because he's on the Raiders that the Raiders aren't non-factor right now Go into the Ravens is like oh no because I already thought there was gonna be a bounce back from Lamar and the Ravens Anyway, and they'd be a team fighting for a playoff spot or a wildcard spot potentially with the Patriots And so are at least they're not getting them now they do get trade Hendrickson So I guess it's kind of a wash But he's their only ad besides keeping John Simpson. They've lost basically their entire team huh Wait who the Ravens oh, okay Yeah, I mean look would you rather pay Hendrickson 28 million a year and keep your picks or give up your picks for Max

Crosby I mean, I guess we could have been playing that game with the pads But yeah, I would lean Crosby on that compensation What else Billy would you rather go on survivor or big brother? Okay So I you I'm not really aware of the rules of either the shows. I'm generally aware obviously of both They've been on TV forever. I know I can't stop seeing these survivor 50 tweets Yeah, popping up everywhere. So I'm not watching the current season I honestly had a blind spot for survivor for many years I'm going back and watching some old seasons when there's not like a busy sports night like last night Big brother's way better. You're just sitting in a house. You don't really You know Drink like you would on some of these other shows, but like you're you're rewarded with beers here and there Oh really? So you can't there's not like just open drinks not a bar. No, I think early on Some of the early seasons. I think they they've real bad TV's really changed. Yeah Absolutely, but like at least you can like grab a snack when you want I like snacks You know unless you're a survivor. You're gonna go unless you're on spot. No, I mean survivor It's like sometimes they throw they're like hey if you win this immunity challenge or this challenge

You get one beer. Yeah, you know like this uncooked bag of rice. Yeah, exactly No, I mean, I mean survivor survivor. I could I could stand to lose a few pounds But you're like wasting away at the end of survivor like no thanks like big brother You're in a house. Oh, there's a pool. I can eat what I want sometimes I get like a six pack of beers if I ever win HOH Big brother. Yeah, pretty easy. It's not really close now survivor. I'm more of an indoor cat survivor bigger purse though I think you got a million if you win survivor. I might even be more now Like I don't know what they're doing on season 50, but I think it's a million dollar purse big brother I think it's 500k. I think it is more prestigious television too Like if you walk around and be like I was on survivor people like oh, yeah, I was on big brother Like like oh you see his nap for three months. What are you just later on? Yeah, right exactly So it's not it's definitely not as cool of a story But I think you have a better chance of surviving like well Like didn't mean to say that but like you have a better chance of being around it Maybe even winning it than like survivors. No chance. So yeah, I would be my more of an indoor cat anyway So give me give me big brother. You could catch for food if you were on survivor like If you're gonna be a human a slower human like value add dangerous game

Yeah, like value add if you can cook or you can like hunt obviously or fish or something like that big time value add Do they have guns? No, I mean not not in the season. I've seen you ever see a season with guns. No Yeah, is there bone arrows What are they hunt with sometimes in traps? Yeah, sometimes they they create traps. They'll give them a rudimentary Weapons here and there usually that's more for like a competition than hunting. I'm not catching anything There's no way I'm catching the single human maybe another person won't answer as long as there's one person slower than me Don't get caught cricket. Yeah, okay. I'm with big brother on that. Oh, what else Billy? Would you rather visit an alien planet or have an alien visit our planet aliens are here? True, but I like you haven't you to the best of your knowledge. You don't know if you've talked with one So would you rather like an alien show up and then conversely like they call the show once a week. Yeah I think now I don't know how it would work I would need like my own fancy suks and there's no air up there to breathe, but I think visiting an alien planet is Probably the cooler thing

Yeah, cuz then you're like oh, this is all all this is an alien's visit our planet. They're here Like what's the what's the show and what's the song and dance in that? I want to visit their planet. What's going on there tall gray small Nordics and Nordics. Yeah reptilians right the Martians which planet would you want to go to out of that? I mean, I'd like to go to Saturn. I don't think it's plausible. I know where heart would want to go where the small grays are It wants the door Be a giant little a smurf planet for exactly. Yeah, that's true. Like would you go to Mars? You've got a Mars. I got a Mars shirt There's a lot though. Would luck going on there. I assume Martians It's got no other's Martians. Yeah, I mean, don't be stupid You'll just see how they do things for a little bit, right? Yeah, what their world is like We're gonna sports. They have a little bit of sports talk radio. I agree kind of music to they have I kind of what do you guys got a Mars man this bracket here? What do you guys do it? What are you for video games? Anything? Cast their I can't look at the draft kings. Can you guys log in for me guys guys? It's king of the court night Who are you guys on jaylon johnson me too? You guys bet on this?

That's that'd be fun. I think you'd be a little fish out of water, but it would be I think a good time Well, yeah, I just think it'd be different than what we do every day here with the aliens here Sure. Yeah, I mean I come true.

Yeah, we wanted to beat the Oscars to their own big pre-show Correct some of the ones that they don't hand out at the Oscars will hand out in the Jones and Keith Awards Bragg of the year things like that. Yeah, yeah grab bag of the year and brag of the year sure not to be confused the two

I did a whole stand-alone episode doing a preview if you want to check out on the dork five Yeah, there's a lot of brags a lot of me talking about movies that I watched So you can check that on the Odyssey app or every get your podcast to that last night is available Real quick the like major awards Best actor Michael B. Jordan's got a lot of love right now in fact. He was the favorite last I looked on draft Kings Oh, wow, because he he wanted whatever they call the Sag Awards. Yeah, the actors. Thank you On the actor. So he's the favorite Chalamet right behind them But you have two young guns that I think are the favorites. I know I watch I'd be happy with either one I really want Michael B. Jordan to win obviously Minus 200 it now Chalamet plus 185. Oh good value on Chalamet though. Wait Jordan's minus two He was he was minus 120 like three days ago. Well people are getting in on it then. I guess so Ethan Hawk Leonardo DiCaprio and Wagner Mora are the other nominees So I'm I'm I'm picking Michael B. Jordan actor in a supporting role

You have the two guys from one battle Sean Penn and Benicio del Toro. You have Jacob a lord You played the monster in Frankenstein Delroy Lindo from sinners and Stellan Scars guard from sentimental value Who's the favorite their pen pen pens the favorite he probably wins although I'd give it to Benicio years Really knocked it out of the park he was not in that movie a ton No, but he knocked it out of the park when he was watching. He was a few a few what He's small beers. Yeah, it's popcorn Jones's view on that. I also had heard to via the internet that he Like well, what was in the movie wasn't necessarily in the original script for a lot of his stuff Like he read it and then went to Paul Thomas Anderson and Leo and was like I got all these ideas like let's do it this way And they did nice like the whole chase scene like with it like I think he came up with that. Oh, I like him Actors in a leading role Jesse Buckley is the favorite although I would give it to Rose Byrne for if I had legs that kick you Also or actually or the girl from sentimental value, which I cannot pronounce her name But the lead from sentimental value was also really really good norwegian couldn't really couldn't understand it

No, I had to read the subtitles, but you thought a couple English lines. She did have a couple English lines Thank you. She's into it though. She was very good. Okay. She's very strong actress in a supporting role You have two actresses from sentimental value. You also have one from one battle sinners and weapons Give me Amy Madigan from weapons. Loved loved weapons. It's the only nomination they have on the whole board. Okay Best animated feature film should be K-pop demon hunters and we got word today confirmed That the K-pop demon hunters huntrix is gonna perform golden at the Academy Awards. Oh wow So another performance of that one. Okay, they do that a lot of awards shows, but they're doing it out of this one Makes sense. It's very on the nose for this one. Yeah, best picture Jones. All right. It is between Bugonia F1 Frankenstein hamnet Marty supreme one battle after another the secret agent sentimental value sinners and train dreams My pick is sinners. Of course. That's one bad. That's a heart pick. Not a head pick That's a heart pick If you want to I think the odds are probably too slanted you to actually make money, but one battle's gonna win

Okay, I think one battle's gonna win I out of the two that I've seen that was my they were both very good. Yeah, my preference was one battle out of those Although sinners got a zillion nominations So like if you're trying to bet something with plus money like stranger things have happened That might be the one maybe take a take a stab at that. So Yeah, look forward to that Conan O'Brien back as the host once again Just something I didn't even heard of this will Ferrell's gonna be in a golf show this summer called the hawk Replays like a former golfer. Okay, so like It's not happy Gilmore, but a hawk. Yeah, and it's not didn't what's that new show? I yeah, it's exactly. Yeah. Oh, we'll just do this. Yeah, will Ferrell's like I could better than yeah They're like no one's watching that. Let's bring in Will Ferrell. I guess the hawk So I guess we're gonna do that and he could do that. Okay another show coming to Netflix This one in April. So the will Ferrell show this summer. They're doing a man-on-fire TV series Not what ends that I was just gonna say it's not who's Not that I Abdul Matin the guy that was Wonderman and he you've seen him in a bunch of movies. Okay. He's a good actor

Where is this gonna stream or air Netflix in April? Netflix next month Uh Katherine Han also announced that she is gonna play mother golf. I saw live action tangled.

It's a live action tangle Tangled Kim a Rapunzel tangled Kim out in 2010. You know who would be really good for that spot for for mother golfal Mother golfal. Yeah, Susan Sarandon. Oh good. Giant eyes like that Mother golf she does as she does have giant mother golfal bad. Oh Real bad. Yeah. Oh, yeah, one of the worst all these Disney movies watching with your kids and like the first 10 minutes of every movie is like horrible And it's like this lady stole a baby and you're like wait What and locked her in a tower locked her in a tower and just keep her to keep her young Tepper young by like eating her hair. Yeah What is this? I don't think it was eating her hair. Yeah, I was like, what is this? Because then like and then like George, you're looking at you like is that her mom?
