The Stooges Make Their Early Super Bowl Picks

0:00So welcome to Senior Studio's helping old geezers navigate the NFL. I'm Mike. I'm Phil. And I now that I've got a clean colon and Brian and I got I got to make it because it's bugging the crap out of me. A couple weeks ago we had on and of any left sponsor. Yeah there's no crap to bug out of you. Oh that's true. I am nice and light. But a couple weeks ago we had an unofficial sponsor. Remember the realtor? Remember how do we

1:00forget? Oh no. It was a whole episode she got what's going on? What's she paying you? I called her, well I'm making another free peach out of this so who knows. But I called her Brandy Woodlock. And her name is Brandy Withrol. So I hold her apology. Yeah I know. I can't believe that. Think of all the people that tried calling her for real estate needs and they couldn't find her. Got somebody else. There's a lot a lot of lost sales right there but guess who caught it? My wife. And so she's correcting me and she says if you don't straighten it out you're in trouble. So so that I apologize to Brandy. The real estate agent didn't call you on it. She didn't listen again. I am. No I'm not going to go any further than that because you're you're treading in a right direction but she did mention it to my wife who mentioned it

2:01to me and called me some not very favorable names. So Brandy we apologize and we thank you for being representing us because as you know it's not easy being us. So good job apologize. I'm Steve Whitworth. Yeah. Okay. So how do we start? We're supposed to talk about super bold picks but Brandy you brought up a good point. We're going to talk about give some background on what we do every year and what we've done for for how many years right. Oh man. Those are all the things we've been doing as Phil. I'll make you some research. You talk. I'll find out. 90s that was it that I'll bet it's Brian. I bet it's 15 years. The first records that I have are from 2013 but we were doing it before then I think. Before then so I'm going to say maybe 20 years. Wow. And here's what happens is and it's not

3:08real easy to do that but a friend of Phil's runs a pool that you it's it's not confidence you just have to make the correct pick of the winners every week but the caveat is is that you do it with the spread and that is not easy to do. We usually the one of us three whoever is the best nose picker I mean I mean game picker for the year wins is valuable very valuable trophy with it it's a toilet it's a roll of toilet paper on a pig's rear end and I don't even know do I have it is it an Arizona I think so think so or and and my wife will not let me bring it out of the closet so it's in a box yeah no yeah no it's it's it's roaming free in in the walking closet

4:09but so every year the winner used to be the the the worst picker got it now we've gone to the best picker gets it so and and we should probably well I was going to say we could show it but no one would really see it anyway but when you get to town yeah when you get to town we'll show it we'll we'll put a video on it okay and it's pretty cool it is sort of fun not that I wanted and and useful in some instances so Brian is the role still there or do you still paper on the role well after the my last episode with the colonoscopy if it was here probably again we would have had a fresh roll on but it would have been a tomb yes it would have been so a couple of shards hanging off it no that's what I am well how many people do you think we do that with how many are in it 40 40 40 to almost it's really hard to win this thank oh yeah and we haven't won it in a while but

5:18it's sort of fun keeps you interested in football season and we share the winnings yeah we share the winnings yeah whoever wins we put it in the pot and we've done some cool things right we've gone to the horse track a few times we've gone out to dinner a few times with our winnings lately we've done nothing because we have it been winning yeah we're getting older and dumber yeah but it's very tough to do if you do that it's it's not that easy and you know we've we've tried we've tried looking and seeing who's it who's the favorite who's not the favorite but it always seems to throw us off I think you normally we're all pretty close we come in about 50% of the time coinfully flip oh yeah and so it's sort of fun to do and we give each other crap about it but so with that a little caveat we're going to make our picks for the NFL season and I have you know you would think being from Wisconsin that I would automatically say oh it's gonna be green bay green

6:19bay green bay but I I'm not going out throughout this year I don't think that I don't think I think they're gonna fall short again and oh I wonder who you're gonna pick it must pain you to say it if I think I have the right team no I'm not going that direction either because I can't stand a coach Mike's thinking I'd take Chicago yes but but I'm not I'm going with that I'm going with the LA ramps since I think their defense is gonna be really good my their offense is good as good as usual so that's that's my Super Bowl win and I think they're gonna play that I that a surprise team the Jacksonville Jaguars what the in the Super Bowl yeah I you know what and Aaron Donald is back right he's back he came out of retirement so he's a force you know so yeah and your offense is pretty good they got Miles Garrett too oh yeah Aaron the rest and Miles yeah it'll be they'll be shutouts all over the place and I think Jacksonville's gonna be sneaky good so those are my fix I don't know

7:23what what do you guys think oh man I don't don't all speak at once and I don't want you to do my fix I like the Rams but I can't pick that because you picked it so yeah you can pick the ramps you don't copy no don't copy no don't make it boring I'm gonna go with the two Super Bowl teams the Minnesota Vikings and the Buffalo Bills are you drinking this morning oh yeah holy shit the Vikings of soda the two teams you know who they have quarterback exactly they got a good quarterback last year they didn't have a good quarterback and they had a good defense so I wouldn't call Kyle or Merle I'm very good quarterback after a tournament Phoenix or a tall quarterback he's not tall or a tall yeah so I but it's two teams that have been to the Super Bowl and never won so that's a good one I think Buffalo I agree I think Buffalo was Buffalo's got a new coach

8:29worthy yeah yeah I was gonna say the Patriots oh yeah they got close last year can't play the Patriots because I know but but I'm not picking but I'm not picking Buffalo I'm just saying Buffalo is good but I'm gonna pick against them and say the Patriots okay and would they gonna play I don't know that you're supposed to speculate see we're guessing all right the lions yes the lions wow okay are these I think all of ours are viable right Brian you're the kind of the expert you're the local I don't know what do you think of all of what do you think of all of our picks you think we're all in the game in the ballpark I would take Detroit over to take Minnesota I think Minnesota is a shit show but that's just me you know the other one twos it we talked about and this would kill me is a Chicago Bears are are pretty good whether

9:34they're good enough I can't stand their coach he's an arrogant son of a god but who is he who is the coach he used to be the coordinator the offensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions his name escapes me right no Johnson you don't have to call me Johnson you can call me Johnson you call me go and you call me will but yeah doesn't that they call me Johnson I have to call me Johnson I don't remember his name but he's a big prick so whoa okay yeah he likes me too so um but so that would be the other one I think it's what about Denver but it was the Broncos Denver was on the cusp last year except yeah quarterback got bounced out of the playoffs yeah so there's a lot of good teams out there they could go in a lot of different directions which means that we'll end up in our picking our picking contest about with about 500 or lower again right all right so all

10:36right Brian's because because we value your opinion because you follow well that's your first mistake okay make your second pick if you weren't picking the team you picked who who else would you pick what would be your second two favorites I would probably go with Denver as my second pick and then the other the NFC team I'm gonna say he's probably Seattle again they seem to be all business you know I as much as it pains me because you know when I get down Arizona half the half of Sun City West is Seattle Seahawk fans and true you know because they're from that neck of the woods right the cold air you know and and and they are you know they already think they're uh yes their poop doesn't stink so uh but they they got a nice team so that would be my those that would be my two choices what about Tampa Bay hmm I don't think they're going to be that good

11:40this year because they were really don't you want to okay they were good huh so so yeah it's it's you know it's a horse of peace but uh those what you know and and like I said I think I think Green Bay is gonna fall short as much as I hate to say it because it pains me to say that because you know when you're born in Wisconsin you you're you're going to get to you get that tattoo of the Green Bay Packers right on it's the first thing most people get uh baptism baptized and circumcised and right after that is your your green Bay Packer uh logo stand for and and rhombardi eyes yeah yes exactly the flags on the side of your car yeah yeah yeah you can always tell it's fallen Wisconsin not by the leaves by the packer's car what about your buddy Mike McCarthy what's he gonna do with the Steelers yeah yeah great question it because of course it is I think that Aaron Rogers is is pretty uh what I don't want to say washed up because I've

12:47met him a couple times and he's been very cordial but uh but can he throw a football and he's passed his prime yeah he's passed his prime and he can't move and he's one more injury away from like you know he says this will be the last year but his this year could end a lot sooner for him than uh he hopes let's put it that way and I just he lets his family know those whoever she is well his parents yeah yeah yeah that and which is nice you never hate you hate to see that happen I mean for whatever the the problems were hopefully he's he he has patched it up with his parents because he hate to see that with your method of it so yeah so that that's a good thing and like I said uh Phoenix open I've met him a couple times cordials hell signed as many autographs as possible he was actually a really good guy so um a little quirky but a nice guy

13:48uh like says mushroom anything else I a wasca what is that that's the drug that he went to South America to get total enlightenment or something all right so he's a little bit more than quirky he's a little bit he's out there yeah they would say that about us yes they would yeah absolutely just not rich okay well all right so um is that it joke yeah I think so huh I think we're ready for joy anyway we've got everybody the information they need on the season okay you're gonna have to use your imagination on this one because I do not have a very good British accent so I'm not gonna try it okay so I was in a pub last Saturday night and drank a few and noticed too fairly large but athletic women by the bar they both had pretty strong accents so I asked them hey are you
