I'm the energy bro. The energy. Never too cool to get excited about a Friday, your first Friday of October. We're going to talk a lot of NFL today NFL all day. A little tease of the weekend of divisional playoff. Baseball. Can I just say I hope you had a Atlanta brave sort of night? I guess we're. The Evelyn Brown sort of. We're going to get to I have so many. Wow. I knew the rounds are good or what? When the show ended yesterday, I told Rich about the Sean Watson and bro, you know what? I knew it for us. No, no, no, he's slowly just reminding everybody why he got paid. I've thoughts. Please save them. All right. We'll save. We're going to get to all that Rich's big TV game of the week coming up this hour. Oh, I mean, I have so many games that I want to watch, but what gets the big TV? We'll find out. But Danny, I have to get myself some Raiders gear. I got some cool news. My son's flag football team. The Raiders. So go. You know, when you're.

Dun dun dun dun dun. When you're when you want my 1990 starter jacket, you know, break it out. I have to ask a ice cube if I could borrow one of his. It's probably in a rubber made bin somewhere. My parents add it. It's a get it for you. It's one of those funny things when your kids on a team that's a pro football or baseball team. Do you ever find yourself buying that gear or is that like against the rules? Many powers. Got to support the kids team. Yeah. That's the only exception. Like my wife has a Colorado Rockies hat because my kid was on the Rockies baseball team. Oh, I thought is the CNR was for being on rent. She also loves us. Yeah. That was a CNR hat. But is that a is that a fair reason to buy the. Oh, yeah, it's acceptable. Yeah. Brenda has an Orioles hat in the closet. And it's because one of the boys. Yeah, one of the boys played little league for the Orioles. Yeah. So I feel like if you if you see that. You know, she had the hots for Cal Ripken, bro. I don't know. I think he was before her time. Her Brady Anderson bro. She like the cyber. She tells you to wear a cyber. That's why. Yeah, well, she actually did. Did she has to do she called you polar bear peat and bed.

Yeah. Polar bear. But that's totally fair, man. You could rock your raiders gear proudly for little Benny boy on Friday night lights. Yeah. And by the way, it's a banner day for the Kavino Enricho. You got good news for your son who's pitching this weekend. Two right. Days pitching. I just found out right when we went on the air that my daughter won homecoming princess. Today because she's a junior. So not homecoming queen homecoming princess. She just wanted to pep rally today. So she's announced tonight at the homecoming game. And I'm so relieved because, you know, first of all, she put herself out there. As they say, you got to be in it to win it, right? And she was in it. And I was like, either she's going to be super pumped or super miserable. And if she's miserable, then I got to deal with it. So I'm very pumped. Yeah. You're you're happy for it. But I think you're more happy that. Yeah. I love it. Yeah. Because you're not miserable. Relief. Absolutely. So anyway, lots of announcements on the show. Yeah. Because we got a fun live broadcast next week. We're going to announce that in about 20 minutes.

Danny G takes it right back to business because he's absolutely right. We have another huge announcement where everybody reaps the benefits. And we're going to let you know what it is. Okay. I'm here in rumors about it that are getting me excited. Perfect. I'm going to get to that. But let's go right to last night. Dive in. To Thursday and I football where we said it yesterday. I said, I said, I don't have a feel for this game. Remember I said, if anything, I don't know, maybe pick the Steelers minus two and a half. Because I said, if the Browns win, I'm fine with that because the story is better. But the, did you buy a couple of points? I said, no, I said the Steelers should win the game and they don't. The story is great. So I don't think anyone really had a feel for last night. You watched as Kavino said, we were reminded that, oh, yeah, we've been getting reminded. It's solely but surely Dishon Watson is good and in that rust out. But here's the thing. You just need your reps. I was talking to Garrett, one of the editors. It's Garrett. Garrett. You said Garrett. You mean Garrett.

Garrett. You said like Mrs. Garrett. Garrett. Like Miles Garrett. He's Garrett. Like Garrett. You guys all have weird accents except for Kavino. It's Garrett. Yeah. It's actually Garrett. It's actually Garrett. You're all saying it right? We're saying how this three and one Cleveland Browns team would be the biggest story in the NFL. If Dishon Watson wasn't unlikeable because you know, it was accused of having people touch his wham, wham, wham, wham. And you know, some indiscretions and whatever was doing. He is now just disliked. If, if none of that happened, this would be an amazing story of the Dishon Watson come back. Cleveland's doing it. Also, the pencil you're talking to because I did hear Rob Parker right here on this channel saying it was one of the greatest comeback stories of all time, right? Didn't he go on? I saw the clip at Fox Sports Radio. Is it Rob known for his huge proclamations? I mean, I mean, if you take all the controversy out of it, it is an amazing comeback story. I mean, he has a lot going against him. It's just a lot of us are reluctant to give him the credit because he caused the road blocks.

Oh, no doubt. No doubt. And there were a lot of them. It's like, well, it was just like, a lot volume. He became a really unlikeable guy. And you know, if you just want to separate the man from the art, which we do, I mean, you still listen to Arkelli and Michael Jackson. If you want to just separate it for the sake of conversation, right? It is a pretty amazing call. Well, we all listen to Michael Jackson. I don't know about Arkelli. I believe I can fly. You know, I'll give you an example of this. I'm on the 2000's channel on pop 2k series XM this weekend. I mean, this is a big spoiler, guys. But we're going back to 05 21 years ago this weekend. Gold digger Kanye West was the number one song. And at first, the boss is like, I don't know if we're playing that. I'm like, you can't not play the number one song. I know people don't care. But he's selling out everywhere. Whether you love him or hate him, you can't erase that. That song was number one 21 years ago. Yeah. And I'm not saying you should look at things this way. I'm saying, but in order to acknowledge where he's come, yeah, you have to do that.

You have to separate it. Otherwise, you just overlook it and you root against him regardless. I think when you look at the journey of the Cleveland Browns, giving you know, there's so many thoughts going through my head. Last year, remember, it was like, what are they? Five quarterbacks and it was like this rotating circus of they drafted quarterbacks. They waited to draft, you know, should door. And they have a surplus of QB was like a weird. They went to Costco to get quarterbacks. They went to Sam's Club. Got too many quarterbacks and I could take you back here. Well, we talked about who was going to start for the Browns. I remember Danny G specifically saying, no, man, because it's going to be the show in Watson, because it's just the order of how things have to go because a few fails, then you get should door. It can't be the opposite way around. I remember you talking about like, there's no doubt Watson's your guy. First of all, I don't sound anything like it. No, because that was the, you know, the sequence in which this was going to happen, right? You were both missing a layer last year. Didn't ownership say we made a mistake getting the Sean Watson last year?

Yeah, the owner definitely might be wanting to march those words back a little bit. And then in the 2026 draft that we had before the season, I remember listening to the coverage on our network and hearing, why would the Browns draft tail in green at quarterback to your point about the surplus of of QBs? But if any QB was going to be pulled, we would, we were assuming it was going to be Watson. So that's Shadour would get his shine and get his chance. But it looks like every week he's getting a little better. The rust is getting out. He's getting his reps and he's, he's reminding everybody, you know, why he got paid, why he got that contract in the first place. But again, to make it very clear, because I think he's a really polarizing guy who's really hard to root for. You do have to separate it and just look at what he's doing on the field. One one more layer. Could I add and then we'll get D B's thoughts and Deneji. Remember earlier this year, he even took a shot at the fans saying like, he felt disrespected when they like cheered during an injury and like, yo, everything feels

so weird. Again, that if under all different circumstances, it also proves that winning and playing good, here's everything. I think it's on its way. I mean, let's the Browns and the fans look pumped. Dibi, what are your thoughts on Dishon Watson? Yeah, it's very difficult for me to separate the accusations because of the number of them. For sure. So I just always think that now looking at him play. Last night, this guy has undergone multiple injuries in his career, the re-ruptsering or re-injuring of his Achilles. And I don't want to say that he looks like the old Dishon Watson, but he moves a lot better than I thought he would with those injuries. I'll tell you what I do. I like to watch at the end of the game to see how opposing players address Dishon Watson and to see if there's extended handshakes of players. And last night they kept on following him and Watson was on this mad, mad hunt to find Aaron Rogers. And right when he went to Rogers, the camera cut away, but they went back to it like a couple of seconds later and Rogers had already moved on.

Rogers has been one to also stiff people and handshake lines or to ignore certain people. But I just I'm curious. And last step by that, just a lot of quick, what's up to Dishon Watson in that. So I noticed that as well when we see the post game. It's interesting. It's like almost observing if a new date you're on treats the waiter nice. Yes. Like how how are they received? What's going on? Like have the players have his fraternity of NFL players? If he accepted him again, yeah, or do they not want to be associated with him? So they don't give him a handshake or don't give him a hug in that sort of deal is. Yeah. And Aaron Rogers actually trying to avoid them. Those are those are the things that I look at because I still cannot watch him. And when he did the interview with Kaylee Hartzung after the game, it's all I thought about the whole time. And it's it's just I don't think I can get past it. I think a lot of people other others have. We totally get it. Well, again, 268 yards last night, one tuddy, one interception, but they win 2724. And I did find myself because of these reasons that DB speaks of rooting for Aaron

Rogers and he's a jerk and we said yesterday, was the only time the only time they were rooting for this guy because he's playing a guy who's even worse than him. How awesome was that interaction between him and McCarthy? We're going to talk about the functional whole that. But interestingly enough, when you when you think about it in all sports and music and anything, we've talked about separating the artist and the athlete from the actions, right? And you know, like actors that that have said or done things, you don't necessarily agree with, you know, just recently all the the the dramatics of the Ed Sheeran and Mackelmore and like, there's there's there's always people that hold these artists and people accountable for what they've said or done or their actions. And I think the Sean, it's going to take a long time. But then again, Kanye West, that guy said some really heinous stuff way worse than others. And people, and he sells out the minute he puts tickets on sale. So there's a lot of people that are like, yep, don't care. Like the music, like the athlete, like the stuff. You don't have to like him. But you know, we're talking sports, a game of statistics and wins and losses. You have to still acknowledge though that they're three and one and they look a lot better than you thought.

So you could acknowledge that without praising the guy and liking him as a person. And that's all I mean by separating it because you know, you could hate him all you want. He's still surprising. I think a lot of us. Could I do something I haven't done in a quick second? I sure do modify schedule watch. And it's a rich loves to look at the schedule. Get your watch. Yeah, you're finally getting to the Saints. No, I will go against them eventually. I'm sure you will. The Cleveland Browns. By the way, the funniest thing spots graphic for schedule watching starts with a generic helmet. That looks like the Browns L helmet because it's like it's just an empty helmet. Well, this is a really appropriate. Yeah, spotty from now on. Just make it a Saint's helmet every time. Now this is a really appropriate schedule watching opportunity. So because we got a three in one team that who looks decent that according to Las Vegas, the over and on the over on the most places was four and a half or five and half. Most Vegas books said this the Cleveland Browns would finish five and 12.

That was the Vegas average across all betting lines. No, there are these reasons. Well, the Casinos five and 12. So you're talking about a five and 12 projection are in studio sheet where all the hosts and the producers that love football make their predictions. Worst team, half of them are the Cleveland Browns. So the sentiment was that this team was going to say, I think I wrote that. Did you do? I definitely did. Yeah, I'm pretty sure I did. So I mean, we're talking about three in one team that it's like, whoa, hold up. Now to Sean Watson. Again, it would be one of the craziest, most cheerful stories. It felt like a circus. It felt like they didn't have their quarterback situation, right? They couldn't figure that out. How are they going to win anything? So I'm pretty sure I wrote too. They also trade miles, Garrett away. You don't have Jim Schwartz as your defensive coordinator. So now we find out last night that they have a lot of strong pieces and they won that game without Mason Graham, quick update. It's going to be out a few weeks with a strained MCL and a sprained ankle.

But I think that there were legitimate questions. And honestly, guys, I also thought that I wouldn't put a pass the Browns to try to tank, to try to get archmanning. And with Jimmy Haslam's ties to Tennessee and in Peyton Manning, that there would be a, you know, his dream come true to have a manning be the next quarterback in Cleveland. So I wouldn't put a pass them to make him. So I was with your line of thinking, Rich, not that bad on our sheet. Only three, two of the three are from our show. Lots of dolphins and jets on there. No, well, you know, I'm glad you said the jets because that is who the Cleveland Browns play next. Okay. Now the jets are better than we thought they'd be. Yeah, it seems like that's a pretty, but even match with some, with some extra rest, though, they played Thursday. No, they know major injuries from what I saw last night that the Browns now play the jets. Now they have to go hold on me and make sure I got everything set. They are going. Who are you getting it to? Browns. Wow. So let's say they beat the jets.

Four and one. Then they played the Ravens. I'm saying back to reality a little bit, right? Four and two. Then they play the Titans. Five and two. They play Pittsburgh again. I'm not so sure it's like a split ski situation. I feel like by then their momentum might be going in different directions. They're actually back nice in the fourth quarter. Are you? It was close. I just get up. I'm going to be crazy and say six and two. And then New Orleans, Houston and the Raiders gets us to December. Let's say they go one and two in there. Let's say they lose to New Orleans. Maybe lose to the Raiders beat the Raiders lose to Houston. I'll go one and two. I think this team could be. This is crazy to say they could be seven and four. Six and five. They're going to be over 500 going into the holiday season. Are you crazy or something? They could be over 500. Are you local? Like I'm going into going into. Yeah, you're going to have Christmas lights on your way. You could have Christmas lights on your house. And the Cleveland Browns could be over 500. Remember I said that. You know what I'm rich is saying. Fun times and Cleveland again.

Cleveland. Oh no, you Taylor shift. It puts out a hit song called Cleveland. And that was some of their other. That's what it was. It's Taylor Swift. Is that what it is? A Swiftie effect. I didn't even know she had a song called Cleveland. How's that one go? Is that a new one? Does that know she just dropped me song? It's the hot new track. I don't know. I'm talking about. Listen to that stuff. No, no, you have your ear to the streets. No, I don't. You don't have to know the Taylor Swift streets. Where are you on? Rock, brock, brock, brock. Rock out, dude. I don't listen to that stuff. My daughter does. It's about her love of Travis. Even she doesn't. The whole point of the show is this the one about Travis Kelsey's Wang. No, that's a different song. No, no, this is his his would his well, big oak wood or whatever it was. No, this is the song about how everyone mocks her. Everyone mocks her on social media. Oh, she's got a talk. But guess who loves her? She's the most uncancellable person on a planet. Guess who loves her though? Travis and the whole point of the song is he took her to the heights. She's got so much hate, but she says sells millions of records. Get out of my face with that. As much as he took a chukka to Cleveland.

Is the name of the song as much as I don't want to interrupt these liner notes. West in our YouTube chat says six and five at Christmas rich. Six and five. Five going it. Well, that would be going into the first week of the seven and four. You know, after after Thanksgiving, you break out the Christmas lights, I think going, you know, after after that last week in November, I think they could be over 500. By the way, Coleman Johnson 1968 says what in Rogers yelling at coaches? The same week that Tomlin is releasing YouTube Minecraft videos. It's hysterical. That is funny. Him talking about his love of Minecraft. Yeah. He can hang over to my face. I did that as a story. He can hang with our kids. I think that that's actually the bigger issue that we aren't talking about. What we're talking about is the Browns. We're talking about the Sean Watson talking about JJ Watt or TJ Watt yelling and Aaron Rogers being caught. How about just of how mid if mid the Steelers are? They might be the definition of like pedestrian enough to win seven games or whatever, but they're just they're not enough to beat the Bengals for years.

We've talked about how the worst thing to be in football is in like football purgatory where you like seven and 10, eight and nine, nine and eight because you're just you're not bad enough to really restart. But you're not good enough to go anywhere. So it feels like that's exactly where they are. And so think about this if you're a Steelers fan, your team has no wide receivers that can really separate or do anything. DK Metcalf has a crutch in there. You know, yeah, he had a nice game last night. I kept was wide open at the very end of that game and instead he went deep. Yeah, there was an opportunity where they missed him on one throw. Then they did hit him on another, but but he's been a little bit of a mixed bag. But if you're a Steelers fan, think of how mid your team is. You barely beat Atlanta. You needed the TJ Watt interception and week one. Get blown up by New England. Then you went a crazy game against the Bengals. So you think, okay, maybe we're better than we are. And then you kind of brought back down to earth with the Browns. Yet it's Aaron Rogers farewell season. I don't know how much TJ Watts should be in their future plans because he's probably someone you should trade to get something for. And nobody was really excited about the Mike McCarthy higher in the first place.

So like you're four weeks in and if you're a Steelers fan, like what do you have to look forward to DB? That's a that's such a good point. Like if you're a Steelershow, what's the hope here? Yeah, what's you? You sneak into the wild card and lose in the first round. You can't even like try a younger quarterback because it's a fair card. Yeah, it's I just don't even think that the Steelers fans were believing they were going to be that good to start the season anyway. But there's always. I think there's always hope as always help. And by the way, the the situation where Rogers and McCarthy yelling at each other, I don't see much in that and I'll tell you why because we'll save it. Okay, you know what? Yeah, what did you think about it? We all saw it. It's everywhere. It's not a good look. Oh, well, you know what? We'll explain. And if you missed it last night, Rogers and McCarthy going at it. We'll get to that. Plus big TV game of the week. We got brainwave, give him away some prizes. And hello, big announcement. And a big announcement about a live broadcast next week. We want you to be at. We'll talk about it.

Major announcement. We got to thank our friends at Weeble because this is going to be pretty, pretty sweet. Pretty epic. This is the road to October leads us to New York, New York. Oh, yeah. And remember, we're from the East Coast. So it's a homecoming live broadcast. So we're leaving the West Coast to the East Coast and get this. Thanks to Weeble, we're having a playoff party. We're going to be broadcasting live in New York City next Wednesday for a watch party and live remote for game three of the ALDS between get this. My Yankees loves go Yankees and the race. Oh, man. Covino is extra geeked about this. I'm super fun. I can't believe it. There's a bar right south of Madison Square Garden on 30th between seventh and eighth, two Washington Garden called American whiskey. We're going to be there doing our show East Coast time. We're on five to seven and we'll be hanging all night drinking and eating and having fun

So you never know who's jumping out of that birthday cake. You know, apparently there might be some some athletes on hand, some legends. We don't want to over promise, but we can guarantee that we're going to be there. I'm done madingly. He's not busy. Oh, that's messed up. Sorry, I feel this way. It's but I would love that. He's one of my heroes. Again, Kavino and Rich live from New York City, New York, New York, at American whiskey. Next Wednesday, hope to see you there. How many people do you have? You think big Steve and your mom will make the trip? Hey, I don't do new. I don't make that trip anymore. I don't know. Maybe they will. I don't know. I'm saying the right thing. My mom and dad in the city, they haven't been to city in like 20 years. They live 20 minutes away. I know. All right. Well, hey, Wednesday going to be a lot of fun. Can't wait. Right.

Will Mosquit could be on rich live in New York. Come hang with us. Again, nothing more fun than the beer on rich bowl. I just make a bet. Great shirt. Well, something really fancy. It's not good. Seventy to price on all 16, I made it a lot harder to do. I set up my guy next to TV. The game that I will have is shit called Rich's big TV game of the week. It's Rich's big TV game of the week. Now, there's only room for one game on the big TV. Now I told you I have gone a bit overboard. It's like, Dickie's wild wings in my house now. Yeah, he's got a, how many five TVs now? It's like every, this TV's in every quarter. My wife's making wings on the green egg. I got the burgers and dogs going every week's a party in my place. So he's wild wings. But there's always room for one game on that big TV. The other games might get a quad box on one might have Sunday ticket here, red zone here. We got it all going at the place on Sunday. It's the only way to do it. If you're a football fan, you can't watch one game.

I hate to say it's 2026. The days of watching one game people still do. I imagine if they're maybe not into fantasy or. Yeah, no, I don't know. I think football is a different beast. It's not like baseball. Yeah, baseball. All right. You got to have all got to be tuned in. Yeah, what's going on? Other sports you could just watch your team and feel like I'll watch a highlight to the other stuff. Yeah, football. You got to almost be locked in a little bit to every game. So let me zip through these the early games. Now there's like a really early game. Colts at commanders, damn buyers. They sell more tickets in this game or what? I know they said they wanted a lower ticket prices. Trying to get that sell out. I think they're still working on it. Colts and commanders that 630 AM out here. So it won't help Jane Daniels has been ruled out. So you're going to even going to pay for that ticket. You're going to see Marcus Mario again. That's at 930 East Coast peeps and 630. You got to really set the alarm early call out here on the west coast. Are you waking up 630 for the commanders? We've been through that Mario doesn't wake you up at 630. Sorry. No, not on my Sunday, dude. No way. All right. Now the early games. In fact, if I am watching that game, I'm probably mad about it.

Cardinals at Giants. I'm so intrigued by this only because you know my, my not to stay in but my, my hot take that the Cardinals will never ever win. I'm rooting for the Giants big time in James Winston just to prove that like I was right about the Cardinals being trash. So that doesn't get the big TV, but I will keep an eye on that. That gets a quad box. I think nine gets any snaps or what? No, I don't see what is the 18. No, um, Cal boys in Texas, a battle of Texas to under 500 teams that many argued would have been winning teams at this point, but Cal boys at Texans Houston's slightly favor to that game. That's one to keep an eye on, but I don't, I don't necessarily think that's getting my attention. Hacker's at bucks. No baker, no big TV battle of the bays. I green Bay Tampa Bay battle the bay. No thing. It's never good for green Bay when they go to Tampa Bay. They usually have a terrible day. Now this is a game. This is a game with some intrigue Jacksonville at Cincinnati. Cincinnati is a two and a half three point favorite joke burrow Trevor Lawrence.

It's a battle. These are two. Are you will play off teams, right? This could for some get the big TV, but I'm going to say, not putting that to the side. Patriots bills. Another good game. I mean, finally, um, well, the Patriots get back on track. The bills are three. No doubt, you know, do for an upset. They're high mark again. That doesn't that doesn't get the big TV on our bonus podcast this week. Over promised we threw Drake May in the fart corner because he there's clearly something going on like something's not right. And he's not owning up to anything. So to get out of the fart corner, he has to play a big game this week. Uh, Titans at Ravens. Nope. Jetsett Bears. I started to say nope. I think the early TV game that gets the big TV. Rams at Eagles. That is the game where, yo, your Rams are one and two. The Eagles are two and one. Either way, right? Either either either. So the Rams wins looking at bounce back. Listen, Rams win. Both teams are two and two and then you have two of your best NFC teams on paper at 500

after four weeks. I think it's a really good game because we're both trying to turn it around at home. If the Eagles jump out and rebound from last week, they're lost to the Bears. That was a little embarrassing. If they're three and one, you know what that means? The Rams. You know, your super bowl favorite are one and three. So to me, all eyes big TV game of the week. Rams at Eagles. Now in the late games, there's only four games to choose from. Dolphins Vikings. No thanks. Now, it's at sea hawks. It's between two. The chiefs and Raiders two undefeated teams. You would think that would get the big TV Danny and Mike. But when the Niners are hosting the Broncos. No, that's the game. What a homer. No, that's the game. That's the game. I'm excited for your Raiders, Danny G. And I would love to see them battle the chief. There's a reason Broncos 49ers is rich. There's a reason the Raider chiefs were flexed to the national game. I will, you know what I'll tell you what? I think that I will put that on the TV right beside the big. Yeah, because it's gonna be honest.

We've been used to seeing your 49ers and the Broncos play good. The past few years. Well, you know what's interesting about it too. It's is there's levels to the game, right? And we're going to see if the Raiders are really on that level. And that's exciting. So a really good early season test. It really is. But there it is. They said in science class, litmus test. It really is a litmus test of where the Raiders really are. So that's a good one. But I'm going Broncos Niners. And then, you know, the rest of your games are prime time games. So you got Lions Panther, something night. And then Monday night, NFC, South Falcon, saying so enjoy your football. Your big TV game of the week. Let's go to Dan Byer for an update. DB, what's up, buddy? The so rich Broncos 49ers rematch of Super Bowl 24. That was a 55 10 score where I feel bad. The Broncos are never really in a 49ers war white inside. It was just an annihilation. One of two Super Bowl rematches that we have this week. Do you know the other? Oh, yeah. You know what? Give me one second. I'll look. OK.

I'll do this. You do the bill. I'll give you all the injuries. And then we'll come back to you when you can give us the answer. OK. OK. All right. Injury news. Commanders quarterback, Jayden Daniels. As we mentioned, going to miss the second straight game with an elbow injury. Terry McClure and his questionable for the commanders in that game in London against the Colts because of his hamstring strain. Siocs have ruled out running back to the area of price against the chargers. Speaking of the Niners, Mike Evans, game time decision against the Broncos because of that rib injury. No Caleb Williams for the Bears against the Jets, but Ben Johnson would not name his starting quarterback between Tyson, Beijing and Case Keenum. Jets are without Breast Hall and Adon I Mitchell. Patriots are without quarterback Christian Gonzalez and defensive. I'm in Christian Barmore and Buffalo. While the Ravens have the Titans coming to town, Derek Henry getting a chance to face his former team, but Ray Hendrickson won't be facing Tennessee. Defense event is out because of a finger injury. The Ravens are listing Zay flowers is questionable. Lamar Jackson is good to go. You mentioned Rams Eagles. Here's some details in that one. Rams defensive tackle, Aaron Donald out. Pukin, Akua will be back.

No Devante Smith for Philadelphia as the wide receiver will miss the game. Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson won't play against the dolphins on Sunday because of an injured ankle and Browns defensive lineman Mason Graham week to week with a sprained MCL and sprained ankle. According to Cleveland.com Tony Romo won't return to the broadcast booth as he is part of the ways with CBS. Just months after his OWY arrest, the NFL suspended Donner's owner, Jed York six games and find him $500,000. After pleading no contest and misdemeanor prostitution charges this summer. And some baseball notes. Derek Scoobles going to start game one for the Dodgers tomorrow against the Braves. Robbie Rage gets the nod for the Padres in Milwaukee as they face the Brewers. The Super Bowl rematch DB dolphins Vikings. There it is. Duffins of Vikings. Well, a little before we were born. That was a 1970s era Super Bowl. Yes. That was a game one by the dolphins because as we know, unfortunately Vikings fans, you have yet to win a Super Bowl. Sorry, busman. Back to back. They went Super Bowl seven and Super Bowl eight. Yeah. I thank you DB for the update.

And the Podries versus the Brewers live on Fox 1. No time like October and there's no better place to stream it. Stream the magic right there on Fox 1. Now, let me tell you this. When you look at these games on Fox 1, October baseball, divisional series. One of these things is not like the other starting pitching Dodgers throwing scoop.

Robbie Ray going for the pods. The Miz going for the Brewers. And I think Atlanta might go for a bullpen game. Game one. There's no enough series just now. There's no announcement yet, but because that series was extended to three games, tough series against the Phillies of all the four teams in the NLDS, they might go with that bullpen by committee game. And I wonder if that pays off in dividends or if that is just, you know, are you giving that game to schoolable in the Dodgers? It's best of five, so we'll see. Well, truthfully, I think, you know, between the braids and the Dodgers, whoever wins that is going to the series. So we'll see what happens. I really yeah, because you don't believe in the Brewers. No, because either the Yankees are going to repeat what happened in 96 or get revenge on the Dodgers from 24. We'll see what happens. My way my what a what if damn buyer. Yeah, it's just the heartbreaker of the studio and his Seahawks beat my Niners and his Brewers beat your Yankees in the world.

I mean, I'm not like it against any of these teams. No, I'm not really against his Brewers, but you know, that's how I see it. The disrespect is real from Steve's game. He's like, what was the series? It's not intended at you directly though. He doesn't believe in the team. The team with the best right? You're the best right. The rest of America. Steve Kavino, the best record in baseball. He disregards. Yes, it doesn't. Apparently, it doesn't mean anything. Yeah, I mean, the Tampa Bay Rays are pretty solid team too, but are they built for October? We'll find out against the Yankees. Are you just reading an MLB slogan? Built for October. Yeah. It's true. There's certain teams that are built to win during the season. He's ready for our team. He's on the end of the bill when his other shirt says ready for October. Really? Rock. This time accounts. Yeah. This. By the way, disregard that the Brewers had a 10 game better record than the Yankees. Different leagues. Huh? Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. Tell you, listen to this BS. I'm not I'm not buying it to the Brewers dude. Yeah. Prove me wrong.

Well, you're right. They run differential this year was 214. Yeah. Don't believe it. I don't believe them at all. Dude, this is great. They prove they can pitch and can hit. I mean, I'll route for I'll route for that. I don't know. Yeah. I mean Yankees fan. All right. Honestly, though, the option to the NL, but who wants to cheer for the Dodgers? Sorry, Danny. No, that's true. But I just. I just. I. It's kind of tough to think that the Dodgers could lose. Right. Well, I guess we'll see. Thank you. Stream all of it, like I said, on Fox one. All right. Can we know in rich now coming up? We are going to play Brain Wave. We have plenty more observations about NFL week four. And this is Taco Bell story. And you know, I was saying, I know you and I both love some Taco Bell. Hell yeah. Rich always denies like his love for Taco Bell. He'll talk about it. And then I'm like, dude, you eat Taco Bell all the time. No, I don't. He's the like, you talk about it. He's the guy that's like, you talk about it. I've talked about maybe once a month, but I love it. You're a month, but I love it.

You're a Taco Bell more than anyone I know. And then when I say, dude, you love Taco Bell. I don't need it all the time. But you're talking about it all the time. I can't wait for us to get to the story because the details are pretty amazing. And let's just say Taco Bell fuels a marathon. Well, nothing better than a cheesy Gordita crunch. I mean, I think I eat them every day. It was just a Gordita crunch until Rich ordered it. Cheesy Gordita crunch. We can hang out with Devonte Adams, Rich. I mean, he's got that with a gold card of Taco Bell. Let's get the purple card or whatever the blue card to. So we do all that coming up. Plus we'll give you more details. Don't forget we want to give you all the scoop on Wednesday, October 7th. This coming Wednesday, we're going to be live in New York City, American whiskey in New York City. Two blocks away from Madison Square Garden for a Yankees raise watch party. A lot of artists. Yeah, come hang with us. We'll talk more about that coming up right here on FSR. Best of the week drops tomorrow. Every Saturday, six AME's during the energy puts out our best of the week.

It's been a fun week. So definitely check that out. Now before we get to brainwave and before we get to more NFL week four, I did want to touch on one thing last night. As you did watch the Browns and the Steelers Thursday night football game that we didn't think much of when the schedule came out. But it ends up being a really close game, a really interesting game. A lot of takeaways from last night. First takeaway. I'm curious what Dan Byer thinks of those jerseys. Do you like the doodoo brown brown? I do. I actually I love the orange or brown scheme. I love that. They sort of look at they sort. I agree. They sort of look a little badass. I think that's a cool look for them. Browns win. They're three and one. But people were loving the clip on social media of Aaron Rogers yelling. It was everywhere. And then McCarthy Malfeng. He's an A-hole. F and A-hole. Yeah. A-hole. Yeah. So they were going back and forth. But I don't read too much into that. And I'll tell you why. I mean, it was a pretty heated clip though. Aaron Rogers, like, make the F and call.

Now, if this is a coach or coordinator, give me a new coach and a coordinator. All right. It was a Justin Herbert and Mike McDaniel, right? Or if it was Joe Brady and Josh. Joe Brady and Josh even though they have worked together. It was a scenario in which it was like, ooh, they don't got that history. Then I'd say, oh, oh, trouble and paradise. But when you work together, they've, they've won a Super Bowl together. They've known each other, you know, before Aaron Rogers had gray hair, before Aaron Rogers was doing Ayahuasca. Before, you know, McCarthy was even coaching. He's two coaching stops away from the first time he coached with them. They have history. That's like Kavino and I. We could go at it, really fight. It could get a little personal. But it means nothing because we've known each other 25 years. Now, if you hear two hosts on Fox Sports ready on the weekend that we're just put together, if they go at it, it leaves you feeling like, ooh, yeah, that's awkward. That's why so many shows in broadcasting radio and TV.

And real quick, because people, people's egos get hurt. Personalities clash. Personalities clash. Yeah, you're showing me up, man. They get real tight about it. And it's awkward because they don't have that history. They don't know. I got to say, Rich is a really great point. We're looking way too into that. They have a history. It doesn't mean that whole whole lot. I saw it in my first instinct was more, not not funny, but more like, man, it is still awkward. Yeah, it is still awkward. It's like when Rich and I fight for something for new people who don't know it's awkward. Just going to say that, you know, so after the show, you guys are fine. Yeah, it's never a good look after the game. They're fine. Rich, we've fought on our Patreon on Thursday. It's not a good look. It's just you don't want to do it in public or where cameras are on you. Wait a second, you guys got cameras. No, no, that's it though, Danny G. It's not a good look, but it doesn't mean a whole lot. But you've seen it before. Because they move on from it. You've seen it before where I'll give you one. Andy Reed and Travis Kelsey, like shoving each other. Remember, Kelsey, you would get a little handsy, a little push or shove.

They have that relationship. But Andy Reed was, is that his wedding? They were like family. They won super balls together. I think we got to remember that. It's like fighting with a brother or cousin versus like a coworker where you might be like, yeah, dude, as Kevin O'Neil and I said, we heard someone once say the phrase, I don't know you like that. And I always remember that. One of our coworkers is like, you know, people are bust in chops and one other person started doing it. He's like, no, no, no, not you. I don't know you like that. Yeah. And Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rogers, they know each other like that. That's the difference. They've been to the promised land. They've won a super bowl together. So yeah, it's not a good look and it's showing their frustration. But as far as like, is there trouble and paradise? And you know, is this a rocky relationship? No, they got history. It's not that deep. And I give, I give Rich all the credit there for even thinking that way because I was actually looking at it like, ooh, that's not a good look. But that's just their relationship. I'm just thinking I was going to something like, yeah, fight with people that you're close to and they are, they're close.

By the way, keep saying, you keep saying a rocky relationship. Yeah. Absolutely. I, you know, I got a, I play rocky. That comes out in November, by the way. I play rocky. I know it's tough to energy. It's such a tough gap. But I see that Stallone's been doing some rounds and I'll give him credit. Andy Cohen from Bravo of all places, interviewed Stallone and asked him a question that I'd never heard anyone ask him and I was always intrigued like, you know, like, what are your favorite rockies in order? Because it's always a debate we've had. I've heard this asked a lot of times. I think you're giving Andy Cohen too much credit because I know his answer. He's like, you're rocky five. Absolutely trash. He doesn't like that one. Well, he, he said people wanted to see rocky fighting the rings. Yeah. To qualify that one. But he said that, uh, rocky two, which I always think, other than rocky one, the original, he likes two and of all he likes, Bell Boa, the sixth one. He said, because that resurrected his career and it said it, uh, he wrote and directed it. He said it dealt with, uh, with loss. Because if you remember Adrian, we, he lost Adrian, he was like, my phone had a ring

and like six years until I wrote rocky six, but he didn't, he hadn't done anything a long time. He did admit though that rocky four is the one that fans love the most because it really is just, he goes, it's really one big training montage. You know what it is? I, I, here's how I got an analogy about that one. Rocky four is like Indiana Jones in the temple of doom. They're not the best ones, but they're the most entertaining. Yeah. You know, like temple dooms not the best Indiana Jones, but it's the most entertaining Indiana Jones. And he said rocky three was the biggest chance he took because, you know, you make, you making a third one, he brings in, you know, whole coke and a Mr. T and he goes and it worked out, but he goes, you know, he had a great answer for everyone. So I'm hoping we soon could get still loan in the studio. That would be a fun set. Oh, bro, that's one of our dream. That's the goal. That's the, the dream guest for sure. And now's the time, Danny. Gee, he's got that book out. Let's make that happen. It's called something about steps. What's called? I take the steps. Absolutely. I'm from a grilling apron. It's definitely come back something about the steps.

Yeah, like steps. A lot of steps. I'd probably celebrate after booking it and then call and call. Howard would steal the interview. Likely. All right. Taco Bell. Your favorite place. A place that can be no things I eat at, you know, twice a week, but I, you're the guy that talks about it more than anyone I know. Because I think of all the fast food places out there. If you're going to eat trash, if you're going to eat like fast food and you're going to cheat on whatever diet you might be. I think that's the reason I'm not going to cheat on your diet or have, you know, maybe not the healthiest food. Yeah. It's elite fast food. I'm not going to opt for like McDonald's Wendy's burger king, anything like that. I think, and I think I always categorize Chipotle as like better quality. I don't call that fast food. Like I go to McDonald's. I don't know where you are. Oh, yeah. You like the golden. Yeah. The golden hours. I always feel like Taco Bell is by far the best like late night junk food. All right.

Well, fourth meal. Should I tell you what's going on? What's your order, by the way? That says a lot about you. Where? Taco Bell? Yeah. I don't have one. I'm not a Taco Bell guy. Like at all. That's a wild thought. I mean, in less than a sponsor, the show or whatever. I get a bean and cheese burrito with no onions and three crunchy tacos. Yeah. If I was in the drive-through with you, I'd be like, uh, give me what he got. I have no like specification here. I got a little bit. I get a lot of people not saying that I can't eat my food. Don't say that. I don't have a lot of people to think a grown man doesn't have a Taco Bell order and club. But yeah, exactly. I got my college boy. With Taco Bell order. Did you not eat. Did you not eat tacos a kid in college because I'm half Mexican and with a new Satrash I saw Sam one day with a Taco Bell bag. He had about 10 items in it. I got a drop 42 dollars of Taco Bell. You don't want to know how much I spent on myself in one drive-through. I try to limit myself to four items. Oh, dude. Yeah. I'll go two cheesy. I don't know if I was an eat Taco Bell all the time. I don't know. I try to, the guy that was downplaying his love of Taco Bell. Let's hear how you, I don't get the point of loving it. I love it. Because every time I bring it up, you're like, I don't eat it all the time.

Like, dude, you talk about it more than anyone I know. Every time I talk it, I think I was a Taco Bell last night. I love it. I love it. I definitely, there's a reason we're talking about this, Brad. Can I tell you, I think I'm due for Taco Bell. I probably haven't had it in like a month. Nice, you're a weekend tonight. Tonight's my night. You could bring that for us for your lunch off the Cardinals. Yeah, we're due for a T-Bell lunch. You know what they have Sam? Do you ever have those the chicken canteen the tacos they have now? I've had some things off the canteen in menu. I don't think I had that yet. But the cheesy Gordita Crunch. I guess that's a mainstay. I will vouch that that is the best fast food item. Chick-fil-A's chicken sandwich is a close number two, but as far as fast food goes, I think the Taco Bell cheesy Gordita Crunch is number one. So that used to be a special item that they didn't always have on the menu, but it was so popular they put it on it permanently because of consumer demand. This is turning into fat guy radio. We don't even have time to get to the actual store. We're just salivating here. Well, the reason we bring this up is because there's a race, a viral Taco Bell race that's gone wild where runners must stop at 10 Taco Bell locations, eat a menu item at nine of them.

It's a 50k race during this ultra marathon. I tell you to say this again. Because I want to get viral Taco Bell race. Okay. That's gone viral. How do you like that? It's a lot of advice. Yeah, well, that's how excited this is. Runners go about 31 miles of 50k around Denver, stopping at 10 Taco Bells and eating food at least nine of them. Drink stoke out. By stop four, you have to eat a chalupa supreme or crunch wrap supreme. And by stop eight, you have to put down a burrito supreme or nachos bell grande. They have 11 hours to finish and to keep the receipts as proof. Yeah, check this out. Now get this. Yeah, there's like rules. There are rules. No pepto, Kovino allowed. No pepto or other stomach medicines allowed. They're banned. And vomiting is discouraged. It's allowed. It's a scratch. I can I tell you of all the places I never get stomach problems from Taco Bell. I think I'm like, I built up a resistance. I'm an immunity to college food court till now. The last 20 years, I built a resistance.

I think we need to explain this too. The event is completely unofficial and not sponsored by Taco Bell. Oh, yeah. The concept started in Colorado. It's been spawned in other places. You may have heard of it in DC in Southern California. There's a Southern California edition coming. The Orange County November. So you could join. Sign me up. Let's start turning now, Rich. Can you get our sweat bands? Rich, could you do it? Could you eat at nine locations during a run like that without a doubt with one menu item in each location? Easy breezy. Here's what I suggest though. If you can't use pepto or toms, you should probably wear a diaper the entire time. Just to be on the safe side. Dipper. Yeah, because you're running after eating Taco Bell. You can hear you freaking crazy. I told you I got the reason you can. I got the rest of us. Like we were not surprised when the whole the lettuce, the diarrhea thing and Taco Bell were kind of related. We weren't surprised about that. I'm telling you, I could do this and I think it's fun. I will then do it. Yeah. I'm in. I'm in. Money where you're mouth is. Yo, the boss hit me up. Cheesy Gordita Crunch is my exact order.

It's elite. It's sensational. I'm not sure I ever had one. Get Taco Bell on board as a sponsor. We could do we could do Taco Gordita Crunch Tuesday. Sam, so how many items do you average Sam when you go to the drive? It depends on if I get some of the cheaper stuff. It could be like seven to eight. Seven to eight items. If I get some of the more premium stuff, it's probably like five. And it ends up, it's gotten a lot more expensive since you guys feel you're never doors remorse. Kovino, don't worry. You're never. You're very discussed. How bad do you feel about yourself? I'm just. I zero guilt. I defile myself when I go to Taco Bell. I defile myself. Sam probably cries by the last bite of his talk. My heart is beating out of my chest because all the salt. Like I'm just laying there. I'm like, why did I do that? I would hate myself for a week. You're such a lame. You're the guy that we had smash burgers in my house and Kovino goes no bun. Like you're like, he's watching this girlish figure. If Taco Bell makes you to coolest, then I guess you're the king of cool, bro. Then you should be in the range. You don't think you're in the minority here that doesn't like Taco Bell. And Mexican.

That's trash where I come from. We don't need Taco Bell unless it's a that's all situation. You're an L.A. You should be embarrassed. There's so many trucks, so many places where you can get a really good taco for about the same price, but you choose junk food. That's like a that's like a true. That's an ask I never. Okay, you asked I never ever started my entire life. You know why? Because my grandma made real tacos. It did start out here. That's why we feel it's authentic. It started in California. Yeah. Get out of here authentic. No, Kovino. Kovino needs Kovino. It's Kovino. Yeah, I don't hate it by any means. This guy's getting on me for not having an order. I don't have an order. Have I eaten Taco Bell before? Absolutely. Of course I have, but it's not my coach. My take is this. If I'm any Mexican, I mean Mexican. Listen, we're going to get into brainwave. We're going to talk more week for NFL because I'm fired up about my Niners. I think they can start for no. It's a tough one at home against the Broncos, but when it comes to Taco Bell, here's my take and I think it's a strong one. Well, you don't think I have Taco Bell take.

No, I know you're the expert. You're the expert. You're the expert. I think. See if you can do this in 60 seconds. This guy's King Taco Bell. The same way a real Italian could really love grandma sauce or gravy or their home cook and the brazo, the gobbagool, could really appreciate some trashy pizza once in a while. Like I'm very snobby with Italian food because I'm from New York, but you're just very snobby. I'm not that, if I'm at a party and someone orders, you're coming out, dominoes or Papa Johns, what's that trashy place? Danny likes to hoppers, which is garbage. Oh, stop it. Yeah, many of them just, it was a great rip. That's a last minute. Exwash your mouth. I was so, not here. He is a dish. He's like, if you're amazing, we're just such a pizza snob. He thinks if you put toppings on it, it's not pizza. Danny, actually, which is so false. Excellent. Like if you have no taste in pizza, I mean, like you put a crazy, but you would tell me you had like eight slices when you went there last time. You're the only person I've ever heard say one bad thing about toppers.

He's wrong. Yeah, you talk to people from California that have no taste in pizza. He needs salad bar too. Not true. When you're putting branch dressing on pizza, it's not good pizza. We had a lot of New Yorkers at that birthday party. I have to have a fantastic. I know. You were the only one, Rich. I'm from these coasts. No, it's not good. And as Rich was saying, he didn't like it. He housed like his fifth piece. Well, yeah, because it's garbage. I do agree with Rich's now. You kept eating his fingers. No, you're playing it to my analogy. The same way I, the same way I am a snob with good Italian food. I'll slum it with something like toppers and enjoy it. And I think someone that loves authentic. Top is good quality. And you're right. That way. It's not rich. You're a good girl. No, are you serious? It's not good. There's a reason it's $40 a pie because of the quality of the ingredients. They're breaking your embarrassing. You're breaking your restaurant. You think because you're new. You think just because you're from the East Coast, you're an expert. I'm not good on pizza. He's got it here. Me and Dave Portnoy. Rich grew up from Bologna. That'd be like me. Rich saying you weren't allowed to have an opinion on tacos because you're from New York.

My opinion would be less than a California, and I think. So anyway, my point is I could slum it with toppers and enjoy it. And I think someone that loves real authentic Mexican food could slum it and enjoy Taco Bell because it's not. It's good fast. He did, but it's not my choice. Like Taco Bell is great fast food Mexican food. The same way toppers isn't real Italian, but you can eat it if you have nothing else in front of it. Well, since you, since you're so strong with this, when you join in this new race that's gone viral, again, the 31 mile 50 K. I'll do the show live from our county. I'll run around during the show eating tacos. Fantastic. All right. We got more coming on. Rich will play brain wave coming up. You guys, I've got a bump your heads together.

I'm going to go to the studio lines right now, get our contestant, and I'll explain the rules quickly. Mike from Tulsa Oklahoma was the first through. Hey Mike. What's up Mike? Hey Mike. Hey Mike, you ready to try to win? Let's give it a shot. All right, I got five rounds ready to go. He needs to win two of them to be the champ and walk away with that CNR tailgate prize pack. I'm going to ask a question. Then give three equal answers to choose from. The five of us on the show today are going to write down our answers on these dry erase boards for our YouTube channel. Then on the count of three, call our shouts out his answer. He's got a match with three out of the five of us today to win the round or no matter his answer. If all five of us happen to match, it's an automatic backdoor cover. This is great. I love this game for somebody who's in. You know what, one of them is Danny? When we play this game, I almost feel like it's the sign that the weekend's almost here. So don't you feel that same way too? Like, like, I lost dogs. I do. It's like, it's such a fun week. The minute we play this, it's like, all right, we're almost at the weekend. I hear the match music beat and I get excited. Let's go. All right.

Round one. Let's start with the relationship category. What is the hardest to rebuild once it's been lost? Trust, respect or attraction? What is the hardest? Yeah, such a good one. Once it's been lost. Trust, respect or attraction. All right. Locked. All right. On the count of three, we need your answer, Mike. One, two, three. Attraction. He says attraction. We start with Steve Covina. You know, when you put all three there, it makes it a really difficult choice. But I went with the cliche answer because you always hear trust being the answer here. But when you really think about it, yeah, it's a good one. So I went with trust because I thought that was the obvious answer. So it's not a hard to rebuild. Give it the three answers again for people with just joining us. Yeah. So in a relationship, what's the hardest to rebuild once it's been lost? Trust, respect or attraction.

Respect is an interesting one because it's like, you can lose respect for a scenario, get past it or forget it. I think attraction. What a great answer because if some of you all of a sudden don't feel that person anymore to start being attracted to them again, it's not easy. But I'm with Covina. It's too cliche and correct that it really takes a lot to get someone to trust you again. It's possible for sure, but you got to really work at it. DB, what's for you? I thought it was a no brainer. Trust. Maybe he'll get the back to recover. I also said trust. Wasn't easy, though, because I was thinking respect to like when somebody says something, they crossed the line and you lose respect for them. Yeah, I'm not sure any of them are easy to come back from, but trust is the one you hear most. All right, it's all on you, Sam. Big trust. He got the point. Yeah, we're all on the same brain. I get what he's saying over. If you got, if you got like a sexual chemistry with a partner and all of a sudden like that goes away, you know, and you rebuild and chemistry, you become like more friends and partners. That is very tough to reverse, but trust.

All right, cool. We go to the second category here. Mike, you're halfway to a prize pack. You're going to go to sports. Go to the sports category. Okay. What's the most impressive thing an athlete can do? Dominate when everyone knows they're getting the ball. Make everyone around them better or deliver when their team absolutely has to have it. Okay, repeat the exact question again. The most impressive thing an athlete can do. Dominate when everyone knows they're getting the ball. Make everyone around them better or deliver when their team absolutely has to have it. Okay. All right, we're all right. And our answer is down. Everybody locked in. Locked. Loaded. Let's get. Okay. We need your answer, Mike, on the count of three. One, two, three. Make everyone around them better. Speak everyone around them better like magic Johnson. Let's say you I was saying, I said dominate when everyone knows you're getting the ball. That's good answer.

I kind of was going to go the magic Johnson route, but the have to have it. Like when they deliver when the team has to have it, that's impressive. Debe. Dominate when everyone knows you're getting the ball. I think the ultimate team player, the ability to make the people around you play better as well. I'm with you, bro. I mean, not enough to have you win around, but I think making the people around you better is such a skill. All right, bro, deliver when it matters because you know, you can have a great season. Doesn't really mean a lot unless you're able to deliver a matter. I'm just going to keep getting her nandies in the playoffs. Yeah, and it's about, you know, meeting not only meeting those expectations, but exceeding them. So yeah, deliver when it matters. All right. We go to round three. All this the second act category in honor of sting turning 75 today. Wow. Which musician had the most impressive second act after leaving the group that made them famous? Well, that's a good question. OK, it was really good. Phil Collins, who of course was a Genesis drummer to lead singer to massive solo career, Beyonce, Destiny's child to global superstar, or sting the police to decades of solo success.

OK, locked in. Wow. I think it's easy. Yeah. You guys think it's that easy? OK, what do you think? Mike on the count of three? One, two, three. Ding. He says, sting. Steve Gavino. You make my butt sting. Dude, it's so obviously beyond say. You know, it's not, it's not my favorite answer. But she's a night time. I don't think it's obvious. I do. It's beyond say. I promise you. Mike, it's more real. It's more recent. Your head is up. You're behind. Yeah. Sting the police. You can't. They are incredible. You're incredible. No one would want to see Phil Collins Super Bowl halftime show. No one who wants to stink Super Bowl halftime show. I mean, I'm not even a fan. I'm not even a fan. But it's very clear that after Destiny's child, Beyonce became a global star. Yeah. We know. We know Rich. We know. The other guys like more. The other artist I like more in their band. All right. So we know Rich has answered D.D. Would the Super Bowl field turn into fields of barley during these things Super Bowl halftime?

Yes. Because I went with Beyonce. Yeah. The question was the most. The most impressive. And Phil Collins started as a drummer. That's the most impressive. It's singer though. Yeah. Yeah. I love it. Dude, for the record, I do want to make it. He wasn't a lead singer at first though. Beyonce was my answer. I like sting and Phil Collins more. What did you say, Sam? I mean, Dan, what was your answer again? Beyonce. Yeah. Okay. So if Danny had said Beyonce, he would have gotten another backdoor point because I said, Bay. That would have been the first. That would have been the first. And Mike, the question is who's music I like the best? The answer is so obvious. Who's bigger after their group? I like that. I think it was the most impressive. Dude, she is a global superstar that sells out stadiums and played the Super Bowl. I think it's more impressive to go from being the drummer to an icon. The dancer. Dave Girl did that too. He went from drummer to being an icon. All right. Let's go to round four. The workplace HR category. What's, what's, what's, what's, what's, what's, what's, what's, yeah, no kidding.

And the I heart videos you fail to, what's the hardest thing to fake at work? Being interested in a meeting, liking a coworker, you can't stand. Or being happy for someone who got the promotion you wanted. That's a really good question. Okay. We're all right. Our answer is down. Locked. Everybody locked. Yep. Okay. We need your answer, Mike. One, two, three. Liking someone you can't stand. All right. We're going to reverse order. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio. Sanio, what you said. He said it. I'm liking someone who can't stand. Thanks Mike. At least for this question me and Mike are on the same brainwave here. Liking at jerk. I think in not this company but at past companies we've all sat in staff meetings where that

one annoying coworker kept asking questions and questions trying to kiss up to the boss. And you're trying to sit there and stay interested I said the meetings. Any questions? Yeah. Are you guys in any meetings by the way? You guys don't have any I am in a weekly one. Yes, I bet by your has to sit through a big mic meeting Guy in this thing It is a show it is quite the show smoke-ticking hour. He puts the background up and everything D.D. What do you say can't stand you? Kastanza Ha Alright, would you say rich? I feel like you could you could fake you could fake liking someone enough to get through a work scenario You could really sit through a meeting and those off but to really be happy for someone that got a promotion that you wanted I don't know how you could that would be like if we if we were pretending to be happy if someone got this job instead of us You can't do it. Yeah, you know what rich and I are on the same brainwave there Come down for the guy who got my promo because I'm assuming you work hard for that bro

That's almost like happy for me. It's almost like being happy for the guy that got the girl who wanted hold on though Having to fake liking a co-workers and every day thing You have to fake Congratulations for a co-worker got a promotion of you. That's like a once in a while thing I don't know day-to-day having to fake you're liking a co-worker seems really hard. You guys were pretty good at it You guys are from experience. Yeah, you're pretty good at three years though Sam. Oh Alright, it comes down to the last category here quickly guys last chance We're gonna finish by going to the animal Thunderdome. Okay, if humans disappeared tomorrow Which animal would eventually run the planet? Apes wolves or wild pigs Think about it if humans disappeared tomorrow, which animal would eventually run the planet? Apes wolves or wild pigs. You know they said if ants were six inches Danny G They would rule the planet. Do you know that you ever see that fun fact like an answer or six inches. They'd just So fun. Alright, we're all right now answers down. I think this one's obvious. Let's win one

Okay, Steve Kovino. We'll get your answer right after Mike here one two three He says wolves Kovino. What'd you say dude? It's not called planet of the wolves, bro It's not you ever see that movie mark come on Mike pull it for you They got my thumb Mike Mike Mike. They got brains. I had the same thought as Kovino He does a movie called dances with wolves, but there was a planet of the apes because it was run by a H Alright DB I'm going ape bleep with these answers Hard to read because my board smeared, but I also wrote down apes Those Mike's answer wolves. I actually I don't think you guys know your animals well because the answer is pigs They mean produce quickly. They're incredibly resourceful. They're tough. They can grow They can grow horns or they do they do reproduce so fast that they would be a swarm of them on the planet
