and informative. The opinions expressed. on this show do not necessarily reflect. the beliefs of their peers, their boss, or ESPN.

It could change their. life. >> Hello, beautiful people, and welcome to. Westfield, Indiana, the home of the NFL. Flag Championships. On this Feel Good. Friday, this sports program begins now.

>> Sports. >> are outrageous, and I'm I'm going to be. honest, we had no idea we were walking. into here. Okay, I I I don't think I had. any real understanding of what's taking. place, not only here in beautiful. Westfield, Indiana. If you've never been. Grand Park, you should certainly come. The Colts have their training camp here. I don't know who put the money behind. this in Indiana, but there has been a. [ __ ] ton of cash invested in this. particular part of our state, and it has. blown up in a huge way. We got. people from Spain here, Germany. I think.

I saw some Irish lads here. Flag. football teams from all over the. country, international, 370 teams in. total, all competing for national. championships, and I would like to say. the future, not only for football, but. flag football, seems to be very bright. I got a chance to ride through a lot of. the people here on the way from where. the Colts facility is. Shout out to the. Colts taking care of us, by the way. Shout out to Cont Pazzon. Kaylin. Jackson, owner of Indianapolis Colts, will be joining us here in a matter of. moments, but as we are driving from the. facility over to where our set is, which. is kind of an interesting spot. I I'm.

going to be honest, I did not know there. was going to I thought we were kind of. being in an in an isolated spot. >> Back corner. >> a good group of humans here around us. I. Manhattan University's here. They have a. D1 women's flag football team. Coach. Frank and Coach Nicole just came over. He says about 30 teams they're giving. scholarships. Yeah, flag football right now. >> Whatever you think about the Olympics. being flag football, scholarships going. to flag football, international game. growing, you can't help but say flag. football is going to be phenomenal for. the growth of football not only here at. home because both sexes can play.

obviously at a very high level, have. opportunities, professional. opportunities probably on the way, but. internationally, the Spanish kids that. we just talked to, 12, 13 years old, one. of the kids spoke very good English. because he was born in Dubai, then he. went over to Spain and he was. chitchatting with us basically as. translator for the entire group. I was. like, how is it over there? Is it big? They're like, no, all of them were like, not yet. And they're like, it's growing. We got a 9U team now. They got a 10U. team. So, it's like, I think flag. football because you don't need the. pads, you don't need the field, you can. watch on YouTube, learn the rules pretty.

quick. You can actually tape these. things actually onto the side of you if. you really wanted to do it. I think it's. a very appetizing level of football for. people. Skill level outrageous. I've. seen some one-handed catches happening. from out How are they 9 years old these. kids that are doing this thing? So, you. assume the future of the NFL and the. future of football as a whole is going. to have a higher skill set because of. what these kids are doing. I saw a. 10-year-old girl spit I I mean, it was a. maybe a 27-yd ball. And I'm like, yeah, right. Is this So, they're only going to. get Everybody's only going to get better.

if you start really thinking about it. So, that means these Spain teams and. these Irish teams and these German. teams, it's nice that they're getting a. look early at what we're going to do in. the Olympics. >> That's exactly right. >> what we're going to do in the Olympics. I believe our uh boys and girls watch. Now, that Germany team looked really. good. They They They looked very, very good. The Irish lads looked like they had a. lot of grit. But, I do believe football. becoming an international sport, an. Olympic sport potentially, is a good. thing. This is going to be the avenue. and I think that's why you see the NFL.

investing so much in all of this. Whenever we um do the draft spectacular, you know, obviously our show is licensed. through ESPN. That seems to be a conversation point. that is kind of missing in everything, but we are the ones that kind of have to. deal with that. And obviously Mike Foss, who has been an incredible asset for us, has assisted, but our deal with the NFL. whenever we go to a draft spectacular or. go to a show or maybe do something with. the NFL in the future, it's like that. happens between us and them. And it was. amazing to hear everybody from top down,

Commish all the way down, just going. like, "Hey, flag football, anything you. can do to to kind of help us with that, we'd love it. We're going to be in your. backyard or whatever." Whenever we were. talking about the draft spectacular. position of our stage. So, I think there. is a very good display of backing from. the biggest league on Earth for what's. happening here. We appreciate how much. they're investing in Indiana in this. particular. They're looking for this to. become the Little League World Series of. flag football. So, I think we're off to. a great start. I think this is only. going to continue and the amount of. humans that are spread out among Is.

there a thousand acres up here that. are Is there 7,000 fields up here? I I. don't get up here this much. It's about. a 45-minute jaunt north Yeah. of the. city or so. So, this is very new. I. think downtown's got brand new hotels. everywhere, brand new restaurants, sports bars. They were all filled up. last night. It's like this is. incredible. We're lucky to be here, thankful to be here on this feel-good. Friday that doesn't just have flag. football to chit-chat about. The talk. show table's here at Boston Connor and. at Ty Schmidt, one half of the hammer, Dallas Cowboys AP. Tony's here. And.

college football national champion, Super Bowl champion, Ryder Cup winner. If he was to play flag football, this. man wouldn't know what flag was. HE'S GOING SKULL TO SKULL, BROTHER. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, AJ HAWK. HAWK, UH THIS is outrageous what we're. seeing. And I know you have uh young. kids uh who are in the development. phases. You have tackle football. players, but also flag football players. happening. Seeing what with eyes right. now, the impact that this is having. here, this is special. This is a. beautiful thing that's taken place for. the sport of football that's finding a.

uh. maybe a sixth gear. I mean, how does. football get bigger? Oh, there's a a. version of football that's been around. forever that we should maybe get behind. because it's awesome and now it feels. like everybody's enjoying the hell out. of it. >> Yeah, everyone is definitely enjoying it. and seeing all the kids here like I've. seen how what it means for these kids to. come and play in events like this. especially just to have all of like the. hoopla around it all this stuff going. on. I was at this turn this park 3 weeks. ago for a lacrosse tournament with 5. billion people here. So, it's pretty. special place. My niece actually plays. like competitive flag football and she's.

getting into it. She played in an all. boys league she had an all girls team. My brother coached them and they played. against all boys and loved it had a. great time. So, they're going to. continue that. I think this is only. getting bigger. >> I love that. I love that for the sport. I love this for Indiana. >> Yeah. >> Hey, there's an event here please come. Please come hang out. We are very. grateful for you all to be in this. particular state at this particular time. and ladies and gentlemen, this. particular time we have huge news. A man. who is certainly on the Mount Rushmore. of everybody's basketball conversation,

certainly goat conversation all the time. since he's like 16 years old. LeBron James has made his choice of. where he's going to continue his. basketball career. and congratulations to. the Philadelphia 76ers. >> Wow. >> Miami, Cleveland, we fantasized Golden. State with him and Steph and Draymond. and AD and maybe Kevin Durant get him. out of Houston just go ahead and do a. old school all star OG team and travel. that around. Every arena would be sold.

out. That'd be spectacular. 76ers were. never really in the combo in the combo. but not really. They're plus 700 as of. this morning to land him whenever. obviously Miami and Cleveland have been. flopping the favorites. Joining us now. is the guy that broke all the news. Senior NBA Insider from ESPN, Shams. Charania. >> [cheering and applause]. >> We got Cleveland Browns fans right. behind us. Hey, >> [screaming]. >> got some good news for you guys. You. guys are going to play good flag. football this week. Yeah, LEBRON JAMES.

IS NEVER COMING BACK TO YOUR CITY. OKAY, he he went to he chose Philadelphia. You. don't deserve it. There's your kids. there. Hey, welcome football. >> [laughter]. >> So, LeBron though going to Philadelphia. 76ers. Sports books had Miami and. Cleveland flip-flopping on the. favorites. We hoped for Golden State. just strictly because of what it could. have been. Philadelphia, I don't know if. anybody was really thinking this was. going to happen. You mentioned yesterday. vet men 4 million 7 million maybe some. incentive offset stuff. He signed a.

2-year $8 million deal with the 76ers. This is what he thinks he could win in. his next title with. Why do you think we. landed in Philadelphia, Shams? >> Everyone is stunned in the NBA, right? Like when you think about LeBron James, Cleveland, Miami, those teams are going. to be mentioned as the frontrunners, but. we've been saying on this program for. the last 2 and 1/2 weeks, Cleveland, Miami, Philadelphia. There was a reason. why we kept mentioning Philly because. when you look at their roster, they have. Tyrese Maxey, PJ Edgecomb, Jaylen Brown, Joel Embiid. And we were all going to.

take whatever LeBron James his. intentions were at face value. He made. it very clear from the beginning. I want. to compete for a championship. I want to. win at a high level. This is not a. money-driven decision. That's what. LeBron James made very clear from the. outset of this process when he decided. to leave the Lakers on June 30th. So, now a month later, he was going to have. to put his money where his mouth is. And. today, what I see most from this. decision is he is choosing that the. Sixers give him the best chance to win a.

championship. It's not about legacy of. going back to Cleveland. It's not about. going to Miami where he also played. Those were legacy plays with a chance to. win a championship, right? But how do. you give yourself the best chance? And. so, he feels joining the Sixers, it's. about winning, it's about competing. And. my understanding is the last step for. him was just making sure his family was. on board. Savannah, his wife, lives in. LA uh. with his young daughter Zhuri. Bronny. also plays right now with the Lakers in.

LA. Bryce, his youngest son, is in. Arizona. And so, going all the way to. the other side of the coast, and we'll. see. Will he live in Philly? Will he. live in Jersey? Will he live in New. York? Will he take a chopper back and. forth? We don't know though the answers. yet, but we do know he's going to the. East Coast now, and that's a big. lifestyle change for LeBron James at. this stage of his career. And he made it. very clear. it wasn't going to be about money. And. at the end of the day, it's not, because. he's signing for the lowest possible. amount, the veteran minimum contract at.

the age of 41 going into his 24th NBA. season. And my understanding is there's. a real chance here he plays both of. these years. So, he's got. >> That's what we were kind of thinking. That's what we were kind of thinking. obviously with how it's gone and how he. looks. He played so many minutes this. last year. There's no way he's supposed. to be like that. Then it comes out. afterwards, he says he feels fine. It's. like, all right, this guy might actually. be from another planet. We're not 100%. sure. I do appreciate you trying to. extend the story a little bit like, hey, stay following that Shams Charania. We. don't know if he's going to live in. Philly, New Jersey, [laughter] New York.

He'll take a chopper and I like you kind. of seeding those stories for later. But. on that note, we were just in. Philadelphia for the home run derby. It's awesome. I mean, their fans are. incredible. And if he wins a title. there, statue forever in one of the. toughest cities on Earth. And you talk. about living on the coast, East Coast, West Coast. Getting to the Eastern. Conference, too, a part of this. Do we. think that was a huge deal in the. decision? You said it wasn't money. Obviously, winning title, going to the. Eastern Conference might have been. something he thought about. And uh. kind of how do you think this all works. out now? So, he's making He's hold on. He's making 4 million a year. So, he can.

hold over Maxey's head and Embiid's. head, Jaylen Brown's head, like, hey, you guys are making so much more. He kind of has that angle. Nobody can say he's a greedy prick who. tries to kill a team. Taking league min. at this stage, being a goat, knowing. that his worth and his value, not only. to the Sixers, but to the entire league. as a whole, is billions of dollars. Uh. so, him doing that I think is awesome. for his entire legacy with a lot of. things that a lot of people have said. about him. I think this is a cool. decision that he is making. But, 2. years, 8 million with the Sixers winning.

a title is obviously in the foreseeable. future. You said Bronny's playing for. the Lakers right now. Bronny's heading. to Philadelphia or what do you think. happens with the roster now that Bron is. officially a 76er? >> I don't think there's any premeditated. plan with Bronny James. I mean, who. knows what can happen at this point. I. know I didn't think LeBron James would. end up with the Sixers, but once once. they got Jaylen Brown, that changed the. entire equation. Bob Myers, we have to. remember who's running the show there. Bob Myers. And then, shout out Mike. Gansey by the way. He told me to say.

hello to you. He's. a former WVU Mountaineer. And so, shout out to Mike Gansey. And he wanted to make sure I said hi to. you. But, you know, this team clearly is loaded. If you look. at that starting five, to me it's. arguably the most formidable starting. five in the NBA. And I think playing in. the Eastern Conference, Rich Paul, LeBron James, during the process they. didn't want to admit it, but I kept. saying over and over, Cleveland, Miami, Philly, you look at the Eastern.

Conference teams. Because listen, if you. really want to win a championship, the. East is where I think it made sense for. LeBron James to migrate. Because you. think about the teams, the West is so. loaded. You think about Oklahoma City. and San Antonio. They seem to have a. stranglehold to that conference. You're. going to have to get through one of. those two teams. So, going out East for. those types of teams I think made a lot. of sense for LeBron James. I think he. wrapped his head around which team would. make the most sense. But, we we said it. from the beginning, Philadelphia was. always in it. But again, until they got.

Jaylen Brown, it it really changed the. entire equation of all this. And so, they make the first move, they get. LeBron James today. And I'll tell you, Tyrese Maxey, Jaylen Brown, Joel Embiid, Nick Nurse the head coach, Mike Gansey, Bob Myers, they all made contact with. LeBron James over the last several days, the last week to recruit him, to pitch. him. He spoke personally to Nick Nurse. as well, I'm told, in the last. several days. And I think that all those. things you match it together, he feels. the Sixers are his best chance to win.

another championship. >> That's fantastic news. Congrats to. Philadelphia. You know, I I mean, the. Sixers fans have been through a lot. They've been trusting the process for a. long ass time. >> Long time. >> Now they got to go come to town on a vet. man. Good for them. Good for the. excitement. We were around a. Philadelphia person, Matt Conty, and I. was the one that broke the news to him. He called three of HIS FRIENDS. IMMEDIATELY. YOU HEAR THIS? YO, DUDE, BRON'S GOING TO. I'M GOING TO THE GAME. I'm going to the. game. That's what's going to happen. Tone, can you tell me a little bit about. the odds of winning the title, which is. what Bron is obviously signing for vet.

men in the city of Philadelphia that. gets cold as hell for her? >> Yeah, so we had the the graphic up. there, the plus 6,000 to plus 900 now. That plus 6,000 was a while ago. That. was before the Jaylen Brown trade and. stuff like that. Yesterday before Bron. came to the Sixers, it was plus 1,800. So you about 900 points of movement from. plus 1,800 to plus 900 to win the NBA. championship, which is huge. The odds on. Bron to go to Philly, they opened at 30. to 1 for him to go to Philly when he was. a free agent. That got up as high as 50. to 1 for him to go on the 76ers. And.

then yesterday, as Shams said, I. believe, he was 7 to 1 or you said it. was 7 to 1 yesterday to go to Sixers. Yes. >> Cuz we. we were told. by Shams, you're going to want me on the. show today. So it's like, okay, decision's being. made. So I just hammered. >> Yeah. >> top four. He was at plus 700. I do I do. not know, okay, if any of it worked, but. when you say. needle mover, groundbreaker,

>> Yeah. >> news shaker. I mean, you're talking. about a guy who's been doing it since. he's a teenager. Ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much, NBA senior insider, Shams Charania. Congrats, bro. >> Great work, Shams. >> Hey, is that. >> We'd like to wish congratulations to. Kendrick Perkins as well. Kendrick Perkins has been living in his. attic on LeBron James watch uh since the. end of the season. He thought he was. going on vacation. Turns out he's been. waiting uh rotating two pairs of shorts. we've been told and six different sport.

coats. Big Perk can now take a break. We. got Super Wolfie around in the building. What up, Wolfie? >> Is that the one that got went to jail? >> No, no, it was the imposter. The. imposter of this guy. The imposter of. Wolfie. Wolfie, you're moving to Kansas, huh? Yeah, not Missouri anymore, are you, kid? >> No. >> I was going to like. >> They might They might axe that one, too, I think. >> Where did he pull that mic out of? >> Yeah, I. >> [laughter]. >> You got pockets? You got pockets? You wearing pants? >> Is he a Roo? >> Uh he's got pants. >> Okay. Okay.

>> Hey, what's your name, Wolfie? >> Oh, KC Wolf. >> Yeah, Wolf-o. That's what we call you. Hey, I like the way you operate. You're. a good one. You really give an effort. Welcome to Indianapolis or Indiana. In the home of the. Chiefs. >> Oh, that's what he does. Okay, I was. just trying to see what else he. >> Yeah, yeah, I know. He's good. He's. good. >> Do you do that in the middle of. >> He should howl. Should he not howl? >> Don't you think you should cheer? Shouldn't that be your thing? >> I got it. >> Yeah, look. >> Oh, no, not that.

Not that. >> This guy wants to hump on the. >> That's what he does. I really like he. does that. >> Wolfie, don't be doing that. >> Shaking his pom-poms country. >> Uh-oh, HERE COMES ANOTHER ONE. HERE COMES A GOOD ONE. >> That's not bad. >> Yeah, pretty good. That's not bad. PRETTY GOOD. >> FIGHT. >> WELCOME TO INDIANA, YOU TWO. I ASSUME. Blue's going to be around around here. somewhere. >> Oh, great. >> He'll be humping. >> All right. I would say Blue uh these. guys potentially top three mascots. Jax.

Demoville also needs to be in. conversation. Toro, I think deserves to. be in there. I think that is certainly. >> Steely McBeam? >> No, see, I I appreciate the fact that. the person playing Steely McBeam knows. that the entire city hated the fact that. Steely McBeam came. >> know if Steely still exists or not, to. be honest with you. >> Which is why we respect it. Who was the. Who was the parrot there for the. Pirates? >> Pirate Parrot? >> Yeah, love him. >> Yeah, he's he's awesome. >> Yeah, he's good. >> Is he still doing it? >> Cost too much money. No, the owner fired. him. >> That's not true. >> It's like 10 grand. >> Ladies and gentlemen, speaking of. owners, joining us now.

Thank. you so [laughter] much. Thank you so. much for wearing that. Hey, Tone. >> They're going to fly off the shelves. now. >> Thank you. You You're going to do that? >> That many people are just going to start. buying them. >> Oh, no, yeah, don't expect others. I I I.

That's my job and I think the. boys be jamming as well. >> Yeah, no seed oils by the way. >> Yeah, no seed oils. High quality. products and coming around the corner. grape might be. time of vendor training camp you might. have grape and we tried to sample so. good. >> Oh, I can't wait. >> Oh, I can't wait. >> Banana too? >> Uh but on that note, thank you for. supporting. We are very grateful for. that. You look so cool. I I know you're. a huge advocate for everything that's.

happening right here cuz your kids and. everything. I don't think I fully. comprehended the magnitude of what flag. football is but also this grand park. area. I I. we were up here for a training camp one. I went into a parking lot and then I. left. This is incredible the setup. How. proud of you are uh are you of all of. this happening in Indiana and what do. you think this says about the future of. flag football? >> Yeah, I mean I think it's incredible. I. mean I think I was here yesterday for a. couple hours and um I just couldn't stop. smiling. It's so fun. I mean even. driving here watching the kids practice.

on the side. I think at any age you're. seeing the athleticism and what's being. shown here I think makes people even. more excited about it but it grew out of. Canton um and it was. too small for them and so to be able to. be the one who gets to host the first. one kind of on the road. But I mean I'm. not surprised. I mean Westfield has been. a great partner um for us and I think. obviously we're biased but Indianapolis. and the surrounding area always host. marquee events better than anybody, you. know, combine for 40 years and hopefully.

longer than that um and the Super Bowl I. mean you name it and hopefully the draft. at some point will be on our list of. trying to get that here and not. surprised that it's going as well as it. is and the weather's been incredible. Um it's just been really cool to see. I. mean at all ages like there's 8U we have. an 8U team playing actually from Indy. with Colts jerseys on at 3:10 if anyone. wants to check it out. >> Okay, yeah. The 8-year-old's going to be. studs. >> But I was so sad because our two um high. school representatives um Indiana Lee.

and Lawrence North they lost today. So. but I know. What? >> Lawrence North that's Munson's yeah. >> They were the runner up no those girls. >> Okay okay. >> They were the runner. They were the runner ups of the state. champs here in Indiana last year and so. I was bummed but you know they played. their hearts out and I'm glad they got. to compete. >> So this is acting national championship. right? That's what we do but it's also. international like we we talked to some. kids from Spain.

>> Yes and we have two Germany teams which. for us you know we're very excited about. with our international marketing over. there and so it's fun to be able to have. two of them here too. >> Yeah and you mentioned all the great. events that we host here and we've been. to other cities that host events. >> Sure. >> Right? We've been to a lot of them. It's. like the humans here just kind of get. it. Like I think people in Indianapolis. just kind of get it. You got to remember. the Indy 500 and that this is Westfield. 45 minutes north. It is different city. up here than Indianapolis I will say. Northern part central northern Indiana. or whatever the case is. Indy 500 is. like 350,000 people coming into our.

state in our city every single year and. I feel like the humans that work. restaurants the humans that work these. events like we're used to people coming. into the state and I think that's why. it's all kind of. flowing so effortlessly if you will. You. said it's on the move. We're not going. to host this next year and every single. year or is this cuz I know they're. trying to make it the little or you guys. are trying to make it the Little League. World Series basically of flag football. >> I wouldn't be surprised if they took it. on the road to spread the love like they. do with a lot of their temple events but. I mean I we hope to I mean we hope they.

have the best experience here and want. to come back every year but. I mean you know how that goes but I. think that they there's a lot of like. cleaning up to do too cuz I mean this. has been growing so quickly you know in. the last three years for girls flag in. particular in the country it's gone up. like 85% so it's constantly growing and. the the interest is there and so I think. it'll be interesting to see you know, how big this becomes. I hope everybody. who's here is telling everybody cuz it's. I think seeing a flag game in person, you don't realize the speed and.

athleticism that takes. I think it's. always super impressive to me. So, I. think that kind of speaks for itself if. you get to see a game. >> It's only going to make. tackle football better, you know, especially if we're able to reach more. people to play. The international growth. of it and it being in the Olympics, I. just think is such a cool thing for our. sport to experience at this stage of our. sport. At peak right now, everybody. thinks peak sport, biggest league on. Earth, most ratings, biggest ratings, you name it. Football is the sport, clearly. >> Yeah.

>> And then all of a sudden it's like, actually, we got like another football. as well that we can just kind of put on. top of it. It's a perfect like. accelerator whenever we could have. plateaued, I think, as a sport. I love. what I'm seeing here. I I really do and. what a uh. what a sweet event. I do wish Indiana. teams would have been here. >> Yeah, it would have been nice. >> The 8-year-old Indiana 310 team. They. need the win. >> Thunder 317, let's go. >> Let's go. No pressure, 8-year-olds. >> Go Thunder. >> No pressure, 8-year-olds. >> I thought Indiana Elite was going to get. it done. >> Well, they were so close. >> I know. It was so close. It was 16 to 13.

>> Uh. >> I couldn't even guess what the point. system is. I should learn more. I'm. learning in real life, okay? Right. behind us right here, Cincinnati team. just absolutely cooked somebody for a. TD. Congrats to you, AJ. >> Oh, thank you. >> The Ohio squad's killing it. Uh speaking. of football, >> Yeah. >> we are just days away from training. camp. >> I'm pumped. >> Last year, man, what a ride. >> Yeah. >> What a ride. For you, obviously. personally, family-wise, for all of us. like that, but football-wise, what a.

ride. Number one team in the NFL, number. one team in the NFL, best offense in the. NFL, defense crushing everything. Then. we get an injury to a leg, then we get. an Achilles, then we kind of we got. another we trade, he gets hurt. It's. like the injury bug really did just. smack the Colts in the mouth. Everybody. forgot about those first 10 weeks, I. think, by the end of the season that the. Colts were very very very very good. football team. You guys seemingly decide. let's run it back. We got the team. And. how do we feel? I I I'm excited the more. I think about it. Signing Daniel Jones, great. Alec Pierce, great. Hate that we.

lost Pittman. I know you do as well. Kenny Moore, I know that's a a big loss. But how do you feel going into the. season and what's your guys' perspective. year two as owners as opposed to year. one as owners? Which by the way, congrats on getting through your first. year. You're doing great Carly. >> Yeah, and Casey. >> Thank you. Well, and and like you said. it is our second year. I mean I think. people have known us cuz they've seen us. around. We've been involved for years. But um we also know that people don't. know us like they knew our dad. And and. we got to earn that trust, you know. And. and we completely understand that. Um.

but we feel really good about it. I mean. I think we know that any decision that. you're going to make that's on this. level, not everyone's going to agree. And and that we understand. But we do. want people to know that you know, this. was that decision was not not an easy. one. Um and it wasn't one that was made. flippantly. You know, we talked about it. for weeks. um on end. And we would not have run it. back if we didn't think that we were. confident in our decision. So we're. really excited. Um I think that like you. said, you look at the start of the.

season um. and you know, [laughter] [ __ ] happens. Like [ __ ] happens. And. it was horribly unlucky. You know, growing up we've always talked about the. football gods and and they were not on. our side uh last year. But we feel. really good about where we're going. I. mean I think with the draft, you know, everyone really feels good about their. draft usually after it's done. But we. really feel like we created some depth. in positions that we needed um and. players who can play right now. But as. we all know too, you got to get into. camp. You know, you got to get into. camp. You got to go see what you have.

And but we're we're pumped. >> Listen to you. Season vet as an owner. now. Go ahead AJ. AJ has a question for. you. >> Yeah, I believe you guys open camp. Tuesday here. I believe I guess heading. into camp, what are you most looking. forward to to watching early on? We know. there's still Yeah, football is starting. technically, but we got a long time. until the first regular season game, I. guess. What are you What are you looking. forward to the most? >> Yeah, I mean, I think what builds great. teams a lot of the times is having. competition at every position, and we. feel we have that, and so that's always. good going into camp. It's always really. exciting, too, for the fans to kind of.

watch that competition in real time. Um as you know, you've kind of I know. you talked to Daniel a few times, but. he's on pace, and you know, he's on. track, and that's obviously something. that we're extremely happy about. Um but. as we also know, when you're coming back. from a big injury, you got to get into. camp and see how those reps feel and all. that, and so we'll leave that up to him. and the doctors and see how that. progresses, but we're feeling really. good about that. But I think it's really. the competition piece and seeing how the. team comes together. There's a lot of. veteran players that we have that are. good leaders, but we have a lot of young.

players, too, that we feel really good. about developing. >> I just heard a big dong. Did you hear. that? >> Yes. >> Did you hear it? >> Yes. >> Dong. >> I just heard it I just heard it. I just. heard it. I just heard it. >> It just rolled in the back of my head. I. don't know WHAT IT WAS. [laughter]. >> YEAH, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH. YEAH, YEAH. Of. course, I think we're all kind of. feeling it. The stars are out here, and. uh maybe the greatest. Kaylin, I'm so sorry. Right over your shoulder, there is an. icon. Like it literally right over your. shoulder, there's an icon, and he is. going to hate that we're doing this. So. we're just going to go ahead and just.

keep the conversation moving. >> Oh jeez, I just got a glimpse of over. there. >> Yeah, yeah, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH. HOLY HELL. >> YEAH. >> IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU, SIR. The And Mama, great to see you as well. >> [laughter]. >> Hall of Famers, both of them. Okay. WWE, it's. Kaylin, we don't want to tell everybody. that's around us right now, but. [ __ ] Undertaker is here. >> [laughter]. >> No big deal. >> Okay. >> No one flock over here. >> Oh yeah, I forgot people are listening. to. >> [laughter]. >> Hey, you're going to have to leave soon, bro. Okay, cuz those the people are.

going to be coming. Yeah, I just. announced it. That's on me. Tone has a. question for you. >> Yeah, I do. I don't know if you have. seen uh recently after the World Cup but. the the pesky players they want their. grass again. Have you heard from the. league that you're going to redo Lucas. Oil so that you can roll out the field, have the grass grow and then roll it. back in or what's the situation like. with that? >> Yeah, so I mean I know that's a it's. been a huge topic of conversation. I. actually think the last time I was on. the show years ago we talked about that. at the meeting. So it's always been a. topic. and player health and safety is always.

number one. And then that's why we redid that was. what was behind redoing our current turf. and the. >> the the coconut husk. >> Yes, the coconut husk. But that where. there was tons of research behind what. we did. The logistics. make it near impossible to do that in. Lucas Oil. So we have not heard anything. that we'll be having to dig up the. actual foundation and build a whole new. stadium to do that but you know. we'll see what we have to do when it. comes to that. I mean we always want to. make that a priority. You know, that's always a top priority.

>> Coconut husk is fast. >> Hey, hey hey it seems like it's going to. continue to get louder and louder. >> No matter what. >> It does feel like it. Now granted. Dr. Stills, he's Dr. Stills, right? He. came on our show and boy, you guys got. answers for everything. >> Yeah. >> They really do. Like I I the players the. more. >> Data. >> That hey, we have actual robots okay. scanning fields throughout the entirety. of the season. You know some fields in. November a little bit different than. they are in September. >> complicated and we watch the videos. I. mean we watch them at owners meetings. We we get reports on that stuff and and.

we ask questions cuz we want to make. sure we're doing the right thing. >> Fascinating. Okay, so I know there's a. one per club meeting which is actually. like one and a half per club, right? I. think it's kind of like the the rule. Getting a chance to hear now everything. what is and. obviously. I miss his ass too. He's awesome but do. you have a different respect for your. dad now that you or does that make sense. like a different view of what your dad. had to do for so long now that you're. kind of in the meetings and hearing the. things that they're kind of hearing and. also the stewardship for being able to.

guide a team for as long during the. reign in which the NFL had. Like, what. is kind of your view on your family's. history now after being in the rooms. where these things are happening and. your dad was in for so long? >> Yeah, um I mean, always have complete. respect for him. Um you know, I think. people ask a lot about him, which is. lovely and we're so lucky, you know, I. think one of the hardest things about. losing somebody is is not wanting people. to forget him. Um and you know, for us, I wake up every day and think about him. every morning and all day long. So, it's.

not like the grief goes away. You're. just. learning how to deal with it and go on. Um and that's what he would have wanted. and I think that's what's so great about. being able to do what we're doing is. this was his dream. Um so, I think yeah, there's a little bit of uh. pressure in the back of our mind, you. know, we want to make him proud um in. everything that we do and he taught us. very well and we got to see a lot and he. never hid anything from us. He gave us. accessibility as young as high school on. what he was doing and why. Um things.

that were very, very, very confidential. um and including league meetings, too. You know, we I started going right up. when I got out of college, I was in. those rooms. So, I guess I'm in those. rooms now and he's not there, but he let. me be in there with him before that. So, um I mean, it was it's incredible to. see, too. The room has changed quite a. bit, you know, there's still a good. balance of. um you know, long time standing owners. who have a lot of historical knowledge, which is really important in keeping our. league the way it's always been, but. also being innovative and new and.

bringing in new people I think helps. with that, too. And so, the success is. is looking bright um for the league and. I think it's obvious with the most. recent um you know, reported uh. potential sale that it is a healthy. league and and we're honestly very, very, very honored and every day we do. not take this opportunity for granted. I. know we say that all the time, but it's. not [ __ ] it's true and. um I feel lucky to be able to do what we. do. >> We're thankful for how you're doing it. You are you all three of you obviously.

are handling it very very well. A lot of. pressure, obviously a lot of [ __ ] too. And you just talked about grief. It's. like that's literally every moment. having to battle through real life stuff. while also getting a chance to do a job. that like only 32 people on earth have. or 31 other groups have. Phenomenal work. by you, honestly. >> No, that's very nice to hear. We have We. We still have, you know, it's our second. year. We We have a lot to still prove. and show and and we're excited to do. that. >> Are you thinking about cuz your dad told. us that there's been people in the past. in those meetings who hop up on the.

table. >> [laughter]. >> and actually get in people's faces and. say, "What are you going to do? Shoot. me?" And if it like. have you thought about maybe that being. your thing? Like. hey, how does Kalen operate in the. owners meeting? >> The power move. >> She is She gets on table. >> Power move. >> Yeah, Carly you should Carly does. Carly. actually throws pens at people. >> [laughter]. >> Like some just something to think about. to kind of call your own in there cuz. I've heard those are. >> Yeah, I don't know. I'll just think. about what my move will be. >> table maybe. Yeah, flip the table. >> The WWE move? Maybe I should ask him if. he has any suggestions. on my way out. Um no, but I mean it is.

funny cuz you know, he was one of those. people. >> Yeah, yeah. I think he was talking about. himself. >> He was probably talking about himself in. some of those instances, but at the same. time he only got up when he really felt. he really had something to say and I. think that would be the same for us. We. have always, you know, watched and when we have something to. say that that really we think we can't. go without, then it will be said. But um. I think this past year was the first. year I presented on flag actually at the. league meetings for the first time and. um that was great because they wanted us.

to talk about our road 100 campaign cuz. we committed a million dollars to trying. to get flag sanctioned here in the state. of Indiana. And so to be able to to do. that was was great. It was a moment. where I thought he I wish he could have. seen it, you know. >> He did. He did. Don't worry about that. Connor got a question for you. >> Yeah, another thing he'll see is going. to be your sister Carly indicting, you. know, Adam Vinatieri into the Hall of. Fame. >> Yeah. That was really cool. >> Inducting. >> Inducting, exciting. >> Excuse [laughter]. me, I never. >> I didn't want to correct you, but I knew. what you meant. >> He might be He might be Italian. I'm not. >> He might be charging an indictment.

>> He probably is. If he he might shoot a. lion or something with an arrow. somewhere [laughter] around Canyon. I. know they have those. Probably. But speaking of that, have you talked to. your sister just about that process? What What the What the speech will be. and how how pumped are you for her to do. that for you? >> in it and. um for us it was emotional, you know. Um. he said if you know, I always planned. whenever this happened I was going to. ask your dad and he's not here and um it. just feels wrong to not have your guys. this family be the ones who are doing it. and you know, he was so nice cuz he was.

like, "Kaylin, I would ask. all three of you, but they told me I'm. only allowed to have one." And I was. like, "It's okay.". I was like, I just it's exciting no. matter what and we're just so proud of. him and we can't wait to have. [laughter]. a party for him, which I know I'm hoping. you'll be at. >> Oh yeah. Oh yeah, I'll be there. It's a. free party. >> It's a. >> [laughter]. >> People I don't know. There might be a charge this year. >> Yeah, you don't you dare.

Hey, listen. [laughter]. >> No, but it's fun. I mean, you've been to. the our other ones. It's really fun. It's like a reunion of seeing all our. old players and. it just it's what it's all about, you. know. My dad, his one of his like his. meaningful moments were obviously his. girls can make him cry in a drop of a. hat. His grandkids make him cry in a. drop of a hat. And being asked, I'm not. kidding, to be the person who inducts. you into the Hall of Fame is just not a. thing that owners are typically asked to. do and um it meant a lot to him. It's.

what he hoped to portray to his players. that that he will give them everything. he has and anything they need and. um I think the you know, honor of asking. somebody to do that and I think in the. video too, you saw Carly, she did not. know that he was telling her. She didn't. know and you can tell she was kind of. shocked and very very touched. So it'll. be a really meaningful moment for sure. >> We can't wait to celebrate it. Just like. we're celebrating flag football right. now. This is cool. >> Yeah, this is awesome. >> I hope this I don't know how it grows.

Yeah. 370 teams here or something like. that. That's huge. >> In Indiana we're we're just getting. started, let me tell you. We went from. 18 teams in 2023, 78 high school teams. last year and it's only going to keep. skyrocketing. So we can't wait. >> Olympics. >> Manhattan University right here. They. got scholarships for women's flag. football. And he said there's 30 D1. programs out there that they're playing. against. This is like and then there. will be a professional we assume and. hope at some point. It's like good on.

you guys creating a whole another avenue. for athletes but also spreading the game. of ball to more people. I'm telling you. talking to the Spain kids. I was just like holy hell this is that's. a long way from Spain to come to. Westfield, Indiana. No, I didn't say that cuz I don't know. if that works in Spanish. To be honest, I didn't know what was like. dialect that I've learned from Rey. Mysterio. and what I could say to people from. Spain. >> Did you congratulate them on the World. Cup victory? >> Uh no, I didn't never. I [laughter] should have I should have. though. I should have I should have said. Lamine Yamal won me over but I just said.

muchas gracias at the end. >> Yeah, that's good. >> I did I did a conversation with the kid. that was speaking all the English most. of it. And then everybody else was oh. bueno bueno bueno and then I went back. to the other. Germany, Spain. Is there Ireland kids? >> There's 12 countries I think. >> Do they compete with us? I would imagine. we got a head start on them. >> No, the international compete with each. other. >> Oh, they play they don't play Americans? >> They're playing with each other I. believe. >> Smart idea and then there's. international champ takes on our champ?

>> Um I don't think so. >> to discourage. >> I think so there's 13 champs like by the. end of this weekend. So. the one that will be on ESPN. tomorrow or I'm sorry on Sunday evening. will be the girls high school level. Uh. Um. >> We watched their All-Star game before. the Pro Bowl. And I saw a girl I was at. Cheesecake Factory. It was up on a TV. had no sound. And I was just wondering. what it was. They had caption. I said. Dana Rolosky. I was like, all right. Let's just We take the captions off. here, please. Can you mute this thing? Uh but I was watching it and there was a.

girl making checks I think in the back. end. She was like moving the thing. I'm. like, whoa. Yeah, and then they had the boom, the. bang, the pow play. And it was like the. sophistication of football that's. happening right now is outrageous. >> And I think for girls, too, I mean, we. haven't had an opportunity for them to. play our game. So, this opens up so many. doors and then all obviously creates. pathways all the way to maybe even. working in athletics and and all of. that. So, it's creating so much more. than just. >> What was the stat? What was the stat? Athletes something.

>> Which one? >> Women athletes and. >> Oh, like the percentage of who play. Yeah, who go to leadership roles. Yeah, it's it's real. >> Well, well, Rappaport uh Sam Rappaport. from the NFL. >> Yeah. >> during the. >> Sam. >> I love We're big fans of her as well. She's huge part of all this. She's uh. what uh Canadian football legend, I. think, back in the day. Now, she's. running a lot of stuff for the NFL. She. said something about uh women that play. sports, it's like 85 or 90% of the. people that end up in C-suite are women.

that end up in C positions at businesses. or something like that. So, it's. incredible opportunity to continue to. build that and uh I don't know if that's. the right percentage. Somebody's going. to check me on that. >> Well, but it sounds. >> But it was it was high. It was absurd. I was sitting there. >> You didn't say it like a cert like you. were absolutely certain it was right. >> Yeah, just. context needs to be added whenever that. is. >> Big time play. Big time play. I mean, what a play. >> We didn't see it. >> Uh almost a pick six. [laughter]. >> But you could hear it. >> Oh, it was a drop pick. Fox said it was.

on the screen. That's going to happen. Get back up. Next play. That's right. Hey, that's the toughness, by the way. Mental toughness, dealing with failure, moving on. These are all things that. sports can teach you that not really. life doesn't. So, I'm happy that sports. are growing, happy football's growing, and thank you for being a massive piece. of it. And thank you for wearing that. hat that I definitely knew existed for. jams. >> Yep. You sent it to me, right? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> [laughter]. >> Ladies and gentlemen, Kaylin Jackson. >> [applause].

>> That is cool. See, it looks so cool. >> See you. Thank you. >> So so so Kaylin. >> There you go, Tone. >> Big time hugs for the team. Big time. hugs. We go from owner of any team, thank you. team. Thank you over there, team. Mr. Jackson, you look incredible. Hey, we need that one fit. You know what I'm talking about. Need. that. Home opener. Need you. >> What is it? >> He uh one of his friends had a.

um. is of Indian descent. So, he went to an. Indian wedding. >> Uh-huh. >> And what he we saw him immediately after. some Hall of Fame thing, and he came. directly from that wedding. So, Kaylin. has this. >> Oh. >> beautiful. >> Sorry. >> Indian dress. >> I believe, yeah. >> I didn't want to. >> What's that? >> it's called a sari, but I. >> What whatever. It was what she was. wearing. Like obviously dresses is is. phenomenal. And then he was right next. to her in full Indian garb. And like the. way it looked was just. >> That would be awesome.

>> her dress was just like so nice and that. it's it's him, and he's not supposed to. be in that, obviously. But he looked so. cool. So, I told him we need that on the. sideline. Like we need that on the. sideline right now. Every game. And if. we win the first one, I need it on the. next game. And I need it the next game. He told me he didn't think it would be. right cuz obviously he had the wedding, it makes sense, but like everywhere. necessarily wouldn't. >> He owns the team, he can do whatever he. wants. >> Yeah, you got a tough start to this home. opener. >> I will say Boyd. um Boyd Jackson is his name. He's. incredible for what he has to do, you. know? >> Terrible euchre.

>> Terrible euchre player. >> Oh, really? >> Massive cheater this guy at euchre. He's. a fan phenomenal cheater at euchre, but. he is perfect I think cuz that's not an. easy role he's in either, right? Like. that's a fascinate cuz they're young. They're like in their early 30s, mid-30s, growing family, and then all of. a sudden, you know, like he's he's cool. guy. Terrible euchre player. >> Mhm. >> Like doesn't know how to play? >> No, he does not to play. That's why he's. so bad because he's so disgusting at the. game. He It's just It's uh one of those. things. He's good dude. He's good dude.

He's very good dude, but he also is. like, "Well, I can't believe this is. what's happening right now." You know, like he is uh he's fantastic. Joining us. now is another fantastic lad. He's the. general manager for the Buffalo Bills. Ladies and gentlemen, Brandon Beane. >> [singing]. >> Beane, how you doing, pal? >> I'm good. How you fellas doing today? >> Dude, life is good. We're celebrating. the hell out of this sport here, and um. I'm going to be honest, Beane. You. should be here scouting, I think. If you. don't have a scout at this, I think. you're behind. We The Colts have Hell. yeah. The Colts have people out here scouting.

these high school teams just to see, you. know, for future development and growth. I think you need to be out here, Beane. But on that note, this is gigantic Did you know how. gigantic flag football is? I I I didn't. I don't think I knew until like right. now. It is huge. We got universities. giving scholarships. We got 30-team. leagues. We got high school getting it. sanctioned everywhere. Do you Are you Do. you know about any of that? And How. about this? I'll bring it to you. Do you. think 7-on-7, 1-on-1 culture has. affected uh the skill players in recent.

memory in the NFL for you? And what do. you think it does for the future, Beane, for the sport? >> Yeah, I mean, I think it's definitely. Listen, it's growing rapidly. Uh it's going on in high schools here uh. in the Buffalo area for for women, which. I I think's good. It's It's You're. obviously going to. get There's some great women. uh. Sorry, somebody called me. Sorry. >> Yeah, IT'S UNBELIEVABLE. HEY, JOSH. ALLEN. SHUT UP. >> [laughter]. >> THERE'S SOME GREAT. uh you know, some talented ladies that. are, uh that are showcasing and we've.

had some of them out to practice, but I. do think it's it's changed the game as. far as more skill, uh, you know, obviously. every, you know, everybody doesn't wake. up to be a lineman, but. lineman get paid a lot of money, too. So, it's, uh, it works out well. I think you're seeing. more athletic lineman though because of. this, too. Guys are playing seven on. seven at some point their athleticism, they they grow out of being able to play. receiver or tight end, but their. athleticism from playing that's helping. them be a better tight, you know, offensive tackle, center, something like.

that. >> Also, a lot of single-digit defensive. ends, you know, they were, uh, terrorizing people. You know, they see. anytime you see a D-end with the number. like two or like, uh, four, it's like, oh, he had that number when he was. playing another position and now he is a. monster and you're about to get shook. Let's talk about your team. Uh, congrats. on the new bison being unveiled. I think. you did a good job there. I think [laughter] you guys did a good. job. I think you did a good job. >> Uh, I'm I'm glad we I was nervous about. that. We were talking about that for two.

years. I was I was nervous, but the, uh, the the guys did a great job. It. looks It looks awesome. Uh, I rode by a. couple days ago and it's just, uh, it's. going to be unbelievable. Fans have. already kind of walked up there and seen. it and it's, uh, it's a cool piece to to. what's going to be an awesome stadium. >> I think it's a great like, hey, let's. gather, take a picture, probably a. meeting point. I I think everything you. guys have done is good. You kept the. roof open because the Buffaloans wanted. a little bit of snow still. You covered. people though, so we're still able to do. some stuff. It won't be a nightmare like.

the fans will have to bring in their own. shovels, hopefully. But, do you have. grass on that field? We just asked. Kaelan about this. Did you put grass up. there and what what all goes into that. decision? You're nodding yes, I love. that. Cuz I think the players will. obviously appreciate that. In Buffalo. you would think, hey, that's a terrible. place to put natural grass, especially. with an open top. What it What went into. that decision and, uh, what's it going. to look like? Are you walking that thing. outside and coming back is it is it. taking a bath? What do you got the grass. doing? >> No, I mean it's actually. you know technology has changed where.

you know just like these golf courses. they have these sub air systems so they. can control the you know the flow and. and the moisture and all that other. stuff and then we've got some grow lamps. that these guys will be using you know. as the weather changes here and listen. if if it you know if you have a couple. of terrible weather games and you have. to sod certain areas you do that but. we're excited about the grass. We just. think you know you see it in Green Bay, you see it in Pittsburgh, you see it in. these other colder weather cities. Um. and I appreciate the Pegulas it was. something we talked about for years even.

before we knew exactly what the stadium. was going to look like Terry and Kim. were both like no we we want to do. grass. We we know the players really. like that and and I know I appreciate it. and our guys in the locker room are. definitely excited about moving over. there and and finally getting grass here. in Buffalo. >> I think that's a big decision for the. players. What did the poll come out like 96% 2%. weren't interested the other two just. didn't vote or something like that. It's. like every player is saying they want. grass and if it can make somebody feel.

better going into a game that's good. All we're trying to do is give them a. Sunday, Monday, Thursday. >> What about Saturday? >> Wednesday for me. >> [laughter]. >> Uh Tuesday I think it's happening down. there in Australia. So any any day of. the week whatever the case I'm happy you. did that. Last question for me when do. we report to camp and what's going. through your mind right now? Like like. what is life for a general manager of. the Buffalo Bills right now? We got Josh. Allen. So we got to win a Super Bowl. >> Yeah. Yes, we do. >> Yeah, IT'S ABOUT TIME. I'M HAPPY TO HEAR. YOU SAY THAT because the Buffalonians.

have been telling us when are we going. to win [laughter] a Super Bowl? And they say they say they say listen. you put the bison out front we like. that. You put the broken table inside. the stadium. I like that move as well. You're thinking about us. You're paying. tribute to us. I respect and appreciate. you doing that. This is fantastic little. nod to the. Bills Mafia, which is I think you could. argue the one of the toughest and best. fan bases in all of sports, what they. have to go through and what they put. themselves through to be fans of your. team I think they'd be proud of. But you. know, the pressure's on from everywhere.

Got a new head coach, got to win a Super. Bowl. That is literally the only thing. that is expected from your team. What is. that type of mindset going into a. training camp versus maybe early years. where it was like, let's see if we can. find a team, if that makes sense or not. >> Yeah, I mean, we've you know, listen, you're always every all 32 are trying to. you know, set out to do this one thing. You're right. Um, you'll you know, you embrace the. expectations. You you want to put a good. you know, a good team together and it's. a competitive league uh as a whole and. obviously the AFC's is is been a tough. gauntlet uh.

you know, with the premier quarterback. play that's that's come out of this. conference. So, uh it's it's no easy task, but uh we're. excited about the challenge ahead. You. mentioned we got a new head coach, we're. excited about Joe Brady and uh the off. season, you know, we thought went really. well. Obviously, this will be his first. training camp coaching these guys. through pads and no one went to you. know, kick him in the butt and and also. no one went to to you know, pull back on. the reins a little bit. So, we're. excited. You know, like anything, you. want everybody The guys got to show up. Tuesday, you want everybody to show up.

healthy. Once in a while there's. somebody shows up with a tweak or. something. So, that's probably the. biggest thing right now is you know, met. with the scouts this morning just kind. of going through our ready list and. positions of concern if you know, if we. do have a depth issue. >> AJ has a question for you, Beano. >> Beano, yeah, I'm just wondering how you. watch training camp. I The late great uh. Ted Thompson was the GM of the Green Bay. Packers when I was there and whenever I. would see him during camp, he would be. sitting on the sidelines and he'd be. super nervous and he'd say, "Oh, easy, easy." Like every time we started to. really hit each other or get pretty.

feisty, he would uh sometimes he would. freak out a bit. I don't know how much. interaction you have with the coaches to. let him know, but I guess what are you. watching when you're as a GM like you. know, you got to hit, you know, we have. to like build these calluses, but also. you want to stay healthy. So, like where. have you come from when you started as a. GM until now? >> Yeah, I mean, listen, the even from, you know, this is my 10th. season, even from my first year in '17, uh just the ramp-ups even changed. So, that's the first thing is. you know, when you start out the first. few practices, it's almost like June,

it's almost like mandatory mini camp. And so, I kind of stay still watching. the skills at that point, but once we. get the pads on, uh. I go to the, you know, O-line, D-line, and 9 on 7, you know, cuz that's where. the game's played. It's It's played in, you know, in the trenches, and and. you've got to be good there, or you're. going to probably struggle. And so, I. try to get to really evaluating those. guys. And And you're exactly right. Every day there, you know, the contacts. can happen. It's It's It's a car crash. sport. And so, when guys are on the.

ground or getting rolled up on, you're. you're anxious until everybody's up. And. you know, when you got to put one on a. cart, you're you're obviously walking. over there and praying and hoping that. it's, you know, it's nothing major. >> I remember showing up to training camp. seeing Peyton Manning with a bunch of. wires out of his neck. >> Yikes. >> Knowing we're going to be punting a lot. >> Oh, [ __ ] Hasn't been the same since. >> Well, he went on to break every record. and win another Super Bowl after that. >> No big deal. >> We go on to transitioning into the.

Andrew Luck era. >> Mhm. >> And I'll tell you, I saw somebody. talking, if you got one of these guys in. their prime healthy for 10 years, who. who would it be? And Andrew Luck was on. there. And it's like. that guy right there. >> For sure. >> Josh Allen. What a special run he's had with you. guys. You know, now he's uh. cracked into the pop culture world with. his personal life. >> Golf drills, some really interesting. golf drills. >> He's got guys touching his hips. >> Is that your move, [laughter]. B? >> Yeah, did you tell him to do that? Is he. trying to beat you? Like, what are your. thoughts on Josh Allen, not only the.

football player at this stage versus. when you met him, but like the human as. well. His life is outrageous. He can't. get a golf lesson. without everybody saying There's dick. I don't think I've ever seen [laughter]. one. >> That's a lot. That's a lot. >> The guy in the back there. >> They're pals. >> in the I understand they're pals. And. that guy knows golf obviously. >> He's dedicated. >> But I just saw Ryan Fox win a major. He. was winning the game. >> He could be standing up and put his hips. up. He don't have to be kneeling down. right behind him. >> He can stand up. You know how that. looks, too? SO SO I THINK. >> [laughter]. >> I THINK WHAT WE'RE TALKING about here. >> Eyes to ass is where you need.

>> is a committed team. It's a committed. [laughter]. >> WHAT IS THAT VIDEO? >> That's what they like. >> They like Josh Allen. >> fix his arm. We censor. >> Tell them, Connor. They like him. >> They do like him, but they need to start. talking about winning the division. before winning the Super Bowl. >> [laughter]. >> Come on, Connor. It's just something to. think about, you know? It's let's walk. before we run. >> Before Connor asks his question for you, can we talk about Okay, you take this. off, Foxy. [laughter] Thank you. Yes, he's he's a really good golfer, too. Before that he's right right there. I mean, that guy's face right at cheek.

>> [laughter]. >> Right there. >> Beane's the one that told him to do that. drill. >> I understand that. >> He'd be He'd be at a chiropractor. I saw. him on a video somewhere. >> There's a lot of people. >> [laughter]. >> Hey, there's a lot of people in Buffalo. that would sign up to be that guy. >> Yeah, yeah, I understand. I completely. understand that. But. let's move forward, though. Anything he. does is going to get talked about. That. is who Josh Allen is now. Cowboy out. there from Wyoming, a California farmer. boy. But now he's world-renowned. He's MVP. He's guy that people are. looking for. What have you seen from him.

human and football player versus now and. versus then? Uh whenever he was a young. lad trying to jump over everybody, just. trying to see if he was going to be the. biggest bust in the history of the NFL. >> Yeah, I mean, listen, he's still as. competitive as ever. That's not going to. change. But you've seen him mature and. and grow into the comfort of of not just. leading the offense or just leading the. skill, but leading our whole team and. and the guys on defense, you know, he's. you know, early on when we had Four Year. and Micah and and some of the older.

vets, he didn't want to step on their. toes and he knew they had it, and his. job was to worry about the offense. But, I think at this point he's turned 30. Um he you know, he knows the defensive. guys love him and will listen to him. So, I think that was the next step in in. his maturity and and to help us get this. thing. You you mentioned it. We're we're. here to win a Super Bowl, and and he's. going to do whatever it takes. You know, all the way back to his first win, leaping Anthony Barr, whatever that was. in Minnesota. He's still going to throw. his body on the line when he needs to. Yeah, but hopefully he's continued each.

year to try and be smarter with the. hits. He's going to take them, but try. and take the unnecessary ones out of his. game. >> Yeah, I I enjoy watching him. And. there's I was like Andrew. Andrew just. He felt like he was disrespecting. football if he didn't, you know, go hit. people. And I think Josh has been asked. about it a few times, and I think he. said like, "Well, if we need a yard, what am I supposed to do?" Yeah, you. know. And he is an unstoppable force, especially whenever you guys got two. lead powers going out in front of him. 11 on 11 with a guy who's 6'6", 240 lbs.

of muscle running about there. And last. question for you here coming from New. England Patriot. >> Yeah, >> Boston he already he already he already. asked his question. >> I. DIDN'T ASK A QUESTION. I DIDN'T ASK ANY. QUESTION. I was just talking [ __ ] to. you, Bean. Okay? Don't don't tell me. >> question, Pat. >> No, it wasn't my question, Bean. Don't. Don't get me started. Don't get me fired. [laughter] up with you right now. Okay? We're trying to enjoy some flag. football. But, let's go to the west. All. right? This is great. I don't want to. talk any more [ __ ] We had our fun. Uh. when you see the LA Rams with all this. Aaron Donald stuff and all that fodder,

one, as a as a fan of football, I would. like to see it but call Les Snead and. tell him it's not allowed. And then the. other thing would be, when you see like. Mcduffie and them getting, you know, Miles Garrett and all those things, uh. is that something that you are kind of. aware of? Like you also are reaching out. to the Browns and trying to make a move, or uh were you kind of sitting back. watching that happen realizing like, "Okay, the Rams are going to do exactly. what they're trying to do in 2021. >> No, I mean I think listen, anytime. you're aware of player you know, as.

great as Miles or or or any other you. know, big name player, you're calling. your checking on it. It's got to match. up, you know, what they're looking for, what your needs are and. you know, a lot of times you get in the. situation AFC doesn't want to trade with. AFC they want to go to NFC. So, every. situation is its own. It takes two to tango when you make a. trade and and there's way more. conversations with other GMs about. trades than the ones that actually you. know, ever transpire and and obviously.

the Rams, you know, made them an offer. with you know, send them a great player, you know, back. and so I think that was important for. Cleveland, you know, and you know, in in. my understanding with you know, from. Andrew as well and so no, it's. you hope it's a win-win. That's you. know, that's what you're looking for in. deals like that and you know, if Aaron. Donald's coming back we play the Rams. early in the year. I hope he comes back. after. >> five games tough. >> Yeah, he's [laughter]. he's an animal. And if he comes back. alongside Miles, good luck to the rest.

of you. >> [laughter]. >> Uh-oh. >> Especially in the cold AFC. You're the. man. I appreciate the hell out of you. Bino. Good luck the rest of the way. When you playing golf next? We got to do. the golf thing. And what are you going. to shoot? >> I don't know. I'm going to try to play. Sunday or Monday before we start up. Tuesday. >> What would you shoot? Where we playing? >> Uh, playing O'Kill. So, probably. try to. uh, you're going to kill me if I say. break 80. So, I'll say say 78. >> Sweet. 77 and a half over under right.

I think we're. all learning it in real time, getting a. chance to meet a lot of different teams. The Ohio girls just won back here on the. the showcase field. Two teams are warm. What's. Oh, this quarterback can really spin it. Okay. All right. We're we're going to. have a showcase here behind us for this. entire hour. We can't wait to watch. We're very lucky and thankful to be. here. LeBron James is a Philadelphia. 76er. The NFL Flag National. Championships are happening. And we also.

have a weekend that is going to. celebrate the hell out of Warren Bro. Boys. >> That's right. >> Oh yeah. Yeah, at the talk table I got. Boss and Connor and Ty Schmidt. Come on. with everybody. >> Hey, love you guys, too. >> Hey man, welcome. >> Hey everybody. >> Married. >> Married. [screaming]. >> [laughter]. >> Should be good. >> Yeah, getting married tomorrow. Obviously a gigantic deal. We'll all be. having a great time at your expense. We're pumped for that as well. >> Without a doubt. >> Congrats to you and Miss Natalie. We. love her. >> Yeah, she's the best. >> Yeah, we are big fans of her. We uh we. appreciate what she's brought to your. life and we're very excited for you to.

uh get to enjoy all of this weekend. celebrating you and your love. >> Yeah, should be good. Should be good. Little rehearsal dinner after this. I'm. thinking about the show, you know, of. course, but a lot of stuff going on this. weekend. A lot of people flying in. >> Now, I want to let you know, he's been. kind of scatterbrained. I I will. >> I I I wouldn't I wouldn't argue with. you. I mean, I got shingles this week. So I I there's there's been [ __ ]. happening, but that that is exactly how. it goes. And let's just. >> Let's get blocked out. >> Let's get to tomorrow. I won't get. there, but. >> Sounds like we're going to do that for. him. >> Yeah. >> It's like rain. >> Yeah. >> Exactly.

>> But you got. >> It's like shingles. on your wedding [singing] week. >> Week, yep. Mhm. >> Pains pain's getting there, but boy this. ain't no joke, boys. >> In the middle of your back you said it. showed up? >> Middle of my back, now it's on my side. >> And more painful. >> Are we in danger? Is it contagious. still? >> I already gave it to you. >> Yeah, skin to skin contact. [laughter]. >> What's he trying to do with owner of the. Colts, Kaylin, which we appreciate him. doing. One half of the hammer. Cowboys AP Tony's here. Uh, LeBron James.

going to the 76ers. The longest odds at. one point were what? >> Uh, 80 to 1 at one point were for the. 6ers for LeBron to go to the 6ers. >> And now he is officially a member of the. 76ers as he chases another title. He's. getting paid $4 million a year, which is. vet min for how long he's been in the. NFL. He's not about the cash, he wants. another ring. Let's go to Super Bowl. champion. College football national champion, Ryder Cup winner, also Ohio guy. Just a. kid from Centerville. Ladies and. gentlemen, AJ Hawk.

Hawk, Cleveland thought they had him. coming back home. Miami thought this. would be cool, have him down here with. Giannis and Bam and the boys who kind of. run wild. We fantasized about the Golden. State Warriors just cuz of how cool that. would be as a retirement tour. He ends. up with the Philadelphia 76ers. Are you. heartbroken? How do you feel as an. Ohioan that he's not coming back home to. provide another parade for the state? >> I I mean, I think Ohio people they. didn't expect him to come. I think they. were very hopeful that he would come. back to Cleveland, but they didn't. expect it. But then when you pop up what.

that starting lineup looks like in. Philly, I I start to understand why. LeBron is going to Philly. That seems. like that's going to be tough to handle. for any two regular season games plus. the playoffs. So yeah, I think the 6ers. are looking pretty good. >> He looks sweet in the uniform, I will. say. Let's go back to the truck. Obviously, Foxy and the boys are back there. Foxy, how do you feel about your hero heading. to Philadelphia? >> Yeah, I'm absolutely shocked. I didn't. expect him to go to Philly. I actually. didn't even expect him to leave LA. I. just thought he'd finish his career. there. Cleveland made the most sense to.

me. Warriors would have been the most. fun. I cannot believe he went to. Philadelphia, but as AJ just said, that. roster is stacked, and I wouldn't mind. seeing LeBron James win another title, but my Detroit Pistons are finally good, so this kind of stinks that he's in the. East. >> Yeah, he was never thinking about going. to Detroit, which is crazy, though. >> No, no one is. We didn't acquire anyone. >> You know what I heard it was, boys? >> What's that? >> Big Dom's chicken cutlets. >> Is that all right? >> Anything you need, I got you. >> Yep. >> That makes sense. Water ice. >> Could you imagine LeBron and Big Dom's. first conversation?

>> Oh my god. Think about what Big Dom. could potentially get for LeBron. >> Yeah. >> LeBron, most guys I can get anything for. you. Actually, >> Anything. >> Cheesesteaks, chicken cutlets, weenie. >> [ __ ] you want the stadium next week? We. got you. >> Sounds like golf wasn't that big of a. Philly's got a lot of nice courses. >> but you but. >> Not during October out here. >> May. >> And they made it seem like Listen, he's. not going anywhere where he can't play. golf all year long. >> Anybody that thought, though, that his. uh hobby he just picked up 2 months ago. was going to be a.

career-defining. >> That's what Sham said. >> I know, but I think anytime he said it I. think anytime they said it we all went. he just started like 4 months ago. Like. this is going to be changing his entire. mind. >> on the road all the time. >> on where he's headed to. So, he'll. probably be able to play everywhere. And. I don't know how Jaylen Brown is on a. golf course. I don't know how Joel. Embiid is. Him passing up the. opportunity to learn golf from Steph. Curry is the most surprising thing for. me. I thought that was going to be the. hook, line, and sinker. Joining us now. is not an NBA player, but he is a. three-time Super Bowl champion. A pundit. on ESPN who we all love and respect. He.

looks younger now than he did just. yesterday somehow. Ladies and gentlemen, the man who was called the perfect. player by Bill Belichick, Tedy Bruschi. >> Hey, Tedy. >> Hey, Tedy. >> Tedy. >> You didn't give me a gift, I'll take you. one of your Super Bowl rings. >> [laughter]. >> Okay. All right. >> Boston Connor over there. Boston Connor, massive Patriots fan. Uh he's getting. married tomorrow. He said he would be. >> I didn't know you were getting married, but you're a massive Patriots fan. I've. seen you. Um. >> He's going to take one of your rings.

>> Yeah. Where? I mean, where we're getting. married here? >> Yeah, here like 15 minutes out of here. >> Okay. Congratulations. >> Thank you. Very excited. Yeah, yeah, yeah. >> 29 years. >> Oh, you're mute. >> Married for 29 years. Hold on, you are. mute. >> You just got mute. You're sitting on the. mute button, maybe. >> Oh, no, Tony. Tony. >> He's still got it over the PA, though. >> Are you muted? >> Hit the talk button. >> Can you hear me now? >> There we go. >> Yeah, been married for 30 years. So, um. good luck. >> [laughter]. >> Thank you. >> Yeah. What what would I What would my.

main marriage advice be? It would be. Huh, I would say. loving your wife over the changes that. will happen in every few few year years. You're not You're marrying her now like. how she is now, but she will change in 3. years. She will change in 5 years. You. will change in multiple years, and so. can you still learn to love each other. that way? Seriously, that's some serious. advice for you in terms of how it's. going to go because it's not all going. to be roses. >> [laughter]. >> I appreciate that.

>> Thank you. >> Thank you, Tony. >> All right, congratulations. Congratulations. >> I mean, appreciate it. >> He looked up to you his whole life. watching you do your thing up there for. the New England Patriots. You're doing. that the day before his wedding? That's. a big deal. >> How about that? >> Appreciate it, man. Well, yeah, I mean, I feel like we have a little connection. here. >> Yeah, it's cool. >> Yeah, we got. >> You want to give him an invite? He. You're always. >> I can. I do have an extra spot open. >> Please come to the reception. >> I can't make it, but. >> [laughter]. >> My heart will be with you, man. And I. know. >> calling the game. 18 and under girls. flag football national champions is. here. We just saw two games, and I.

couldn't have been more amazed in terms. of what I'm seeing from these athletes. Couple names, Azul Trujillo, 16 years. old, quarterback for Calexico 49ers, threw five touchdowns. Threw five. touchdowns. The the motion is just a. quick release. The girls are about to. grab her flag, and boom, the release is. so quick, it's so natural. You're. watching quality football, Pat. Really, you're watching quality football with. these girls and also seeing the Bengals. team with Tessa Weelock and and the.

quarterback Quinn was her last name. I. mean, how how creative the coach was in. terms of I mean, there are some rules in. flag football that. >> There's there's a one play though that's. unstoppable. >> Yeah, when our. >> It's like this double hoopty inside and. drag. >> It's crazy. [laughter] We we watch it in. the So, what you're saying right now, the way you're describing it, it's like. you had like an enlightening experience. watching them. We same way. And and I. think some people are scared to say that. because they don't want to like whenever. I open up I was like, this is my first. time seeing this, holy. We watched the Pro Bowl had a high.

school all-star game right before. the girls high school all-star game. Checks, move We got safeties breaking. things. I was like, we're doing like. real This is high football IQ stuff. taking place. And then on the offensive. side, there's this one play that's like. a pitch, throwback, inside scoop thing. that was just like so sophisticated. And. they're all executing it perfectly. It. can't help but help, I think, football. long term with all the technicality of. [ __ ] that's taking place. >> Exactly. I agree with. >> The football skills are similar, fellas,

but the football rules are very. different in terms of the ability to. have two quarterbacks and snapping it. directly to the quarterback. I cannot. run. But if I'm I snap it to someone. else, then pass it back to the. quarterback, now she can run. So, those. type of rules, of course, the Fanatics game when our US national. team was playing against our. professionals, I knew that they would. just blow them out. >> Yes. >> because first of all, they didn't know. the rules. And secondly, I really I. really think they're like. 60% of NFL players, maybe 70, cannot.

play on our national team. I mean, it's. just it's they're just too good. >> Oh, [ __ ]. >> And being big and being strong. doesn't matter. Doesn't matter because really the. quickness, who's our quarterback, you. see how good he was. And these girls are. just so special athletically. It's It's. a different game with football skills. >> Yeah, you need to be able to do the. penthouse to outhouse move. I don't know if that's what they call. it. Well, that's where you're headed though. It's. pretty good. >> This They're running it and then they.

drop. >> Oh, the hip drop. Yes, the hip drop. >> Okay, so we we don't tackle like that. >> But but we certainly run in flag. football like that. That seems. untacklable. Like that is the move. They. did a flag NFL did a flag football thing. at Butler University like maybe three. four years ago and it was on NFL Network. and we had nothing to talk about so we. watched it. All the dudes every time. they got the ball were just trying to. >> Yeah. >> And as. as defenders I mean AJ, we close the. distance and we want it we want to. shoot. We want to explode. We we uh.

>> Accelerate through contact. >> Exactly. None of that happens here. I. mean you have to close the distance and. then you have to reach. >> So Luke Kuechly had to deal with that. He wanted to run right through their. face and obviously they're. dropping down and spinning like these. guys are they're like wizards how they. >> Grabbing jerseys. I mean just the rules. you you can't impede the rusher. It's. They're complex rules but once you. figure them out it's a beautiful thing. to watch. I'm so happy to be here. covering the 18 and under girls because. they are giving out college scholarships. now. >> Manhattan University was just here. Coach Frank and Coach Nicole.

>> I think Nebraska's the biggest name that. has a couple of these girls committed. >> the quarterback they signed the other. day. She was slinging it all over the. place. >> Yeah. Yeah, and then I think the. national championships are here. The. world championships in Dusseldorf who. Phoebe Schecter who I'm working with. she's. >> That's awesome. >> Great Britain team that's coming up and. then of course. all the NFL players want the gold medal. for the Olympics which is coming up. >> I just watched uh number 10 I believe. he's the quarterback here throw a. touchdown. He went to two different. cameras to celebrate before he. >> [laughter]. >> Getting back on the field. I like that. I like that having a good sense of my. camera, their camera,

friend's camera. It's going to do that. >> He's celebrating. >> That's a good ball. He's got. >> Fun to watch. >> we get it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> That one's got to be on Sundays. >> Yeah. How old are these kids? >> This is 14 and under. >> 14? >> They're not 14. >> I'll tell you what, my baby boy Midas. needs to do when you get him on and. playing. >> Uh-huh. >> He needs to get bigger. >> 14 and under. >> He needs to get bigger quicker. >> I think if you're 14 in January and then. say you turn 15 January 15th, you're.

still eligible. So, some of them could. be 15, but it's it's technically it's 14. and under. >> team's up 7-0. That's more than the. professional team scored all season like. >> I will see if they have an interception. here. That'd be Yep, DON'T THROW IT. TOWARDS. >> WOW. >> THAT'S TOTALLY RANDY MOSS WOULD love. that one right there. >> Yeah. >> Wow. >> YOU GOT MOSS. >> IT'S A 14-YEAR-OLD. [laughter] DON'T TRY. TO DON'T try to don't try to We can't be. too rude. Can't be too rude. >> Here's a quarterback too of the other. team. >> Yeah, that was the guy going to the the.

cameras. >> Yeah. >> He's not going to like that that just. happened. >> not. >> Let's assume number 10 for the Jets team. is going to about to have some There's. going to be a little get back on the way. back after that. >> So, I mean just for you guys, I mean an. NFL Flag Football team. I know it I like. I say, it's going to be hard for them to. break through into the national team, but I would say like a Jayden Daniels. could be a quarterback. Um. >> Yeah, Lamar. >> like a Lamar Jackson. >> Kyler could play wide receiver. >> I I mean we. >> I would say I I mean I would like my. pass rusher to be somebody like Jahmyr. Gibbs. I mean because you've got to.

cover 7 yd 7 to 10 yd so quickly and. break down. You need someone that's fast. like that. Defensive backs like. >> Cooper DeJean. >> or Quan Martin. I know those two Eagles. there, but like like the younger guys in. 2 years that are going to be so much. better that could represent it. Derwin. James, I think I think Puka Nacua could. be a great receiver. But, they're only I. think there's it's only five on five is. what it's going to be and I think the. rosters for the national team can only. have 10 players. >> I believe the Jets just got an.

interception. That is more interceptions. than the Jets actually got last year. Let's move on to the NFL, shall we As we. talk about the Jets, the AFC East. Patriots are just back up. A.J. Brown is. now a member of the New England. Patriots. That's absurd. Drake May, obviously, finalist for the MVP. He's. only in his second year, first year with. Josh McDaniels. Lot happened off the. field, lot of drama, lot of controversy, same old, same old seemingly for the New. England Patriots, but it feels like they. are all the way back. Vrabel has the. same mentality for the team, and they're. only getting better. It has to be great.

to be a Patriot alumni at this moment. because you're allowed to be a loud, obnoxious ridiculous. >> The best. >> It's so fun. So, yeah. >> It's so fun even being. >> Pat, with with being with Rex Ryan on. Sunday NFL Countdown, and just glowingly. loving on the New England Patriots that. he has to do because we're playing so. well. It's It's really cool. Um I I know. I mean, fellas, to win a championship, good players, good coaching, good. fortune. Did they have a little good. fortune last year? Absolutely. I mean, you're playing a team in the AFC. Championship that doesn't have their.

starting quarterback. And but that. happens. That happens, and that's just. the way it goes. They couldn't take that. break and finish it for a championship, but I really think A.J. Brown, bringing. him in, uh Alijah Vera-Tucker at line, I. think they're the highly drafted pick at. tackle. I mean, you're building the. strength of your team. A.J. will help. Drake still just focus on quarterback, and I know Vrabel will will tell A.J., "Let's Let's take this locker room over. and be a leader in there." They have a. great relationship from Tennessee. Um.

Vrabel loved him when he was also in. Tennessee. So, bringing A.J. in, you. know what you're going to get in terms. of setting the mood of the locker room. Of course, he is He is a world champion, and that That sort of being the the. example, I think, is going to be big for. them. >> What do you think uh Bob Stoops next is. going to do this year? >> [laughter]. >> Love Stoops, man. >> What do you think about that? >> I love watching him play. >> Dumb truck, yeah. He is. >> Yeah, he I always liked him. I I saw him. once in a practice. I mean, even when he. was with I mean, the Steelers. >> Oh, yeah. >> And he That's the thing with Stoops. I. was like, man, I just love watching him.

play. So, when they when they hired I. was like when they signed him he was. like my type of guy, so. I love Spolane. Yeah. >> Yeah, I like the team you guys have. Your defense doesn't get talked about. It's always everybody else's defense. You know, they're playing the number one. defense. Oh, they're playing the number. two defense. It was like, well, how. about the. How about the Patriots? They they are. >> Yeah, and they. >> Phenomenal. >> Number three. >> They held on as long as they could. Like. in the Super Bowl, you try to hold on as. long as you can to get a break. I mean, Darnold didn't throw us the football. So, it was like they were waiting for.

him to make a mistake, but the Seattle. defense just ended overcoming and. scoring. Of course, that's a great. defense in Seattle. But, I mean, that to. get that far still was a was a. productive year for for Vrabel and his. and his time there, but I don't know if. they'll do that again. I think they'll. be in the games. I mean, late in the. season, but I mean, we all know that. once you get there, I mean, it's about. it's about how the games go and and. every play and every injury and. everything, Pat. >> I love the amount of people that are. here representing at the NFL Flag. Championships. We talked to some people.

from Germany, some people from Spain, some Plum Borough Mustangs in the. building. >> Wow. >> Plums where the ballers ball and the. players play, Teddy. You understand. that. We're all Mustangs here. Got a. Philadelphia Eagles fan, obviously. We. got the Pence family here, I believe. It. is uh. And the Jets just scored again. Where's. number 10? Find the camera. >> Oh, there we go. >> Yeah, let him know. >> Do that dance. >> Yeah. Yeah. They celebrate a lot more in the girls. league. >> That's fine. Yeah. >> Oh, they're playing. >> Oh, he's got the bow and arrow. [laughter]. >> Playing Cleveland. That makes sense. >> That's fun. >> Yeah. >> Oh, it does. >> Teddy, you have a pretty good sized.

dome, I'd say. Have to for linebacker. Right next to you here is AJ. Is that. the biggest crafted head you've seen? And AJ has a question for you. >> I do, Teddy. I. You have a giant head. I think that's. >> Giant head. >> That's how you're laying the wood, obviously. As long as you did. >> I know it happens. >> It's great. It's a great thing. I tell. my kids tell anybody good. You should. want people to tell you you have a big. head. I think it's a great compliment. But, I'm going back to you. What. >> What was it like for you What was your. first couple training camps like? What. year was that and how How it different. than what camp is like now? >> Yeah, the the first couple training. camps, my first coach in the league was.

Bill Parcells. >> Yeah. Right in the fire, huh? >> I I ended up losing like 15 to 20 lb in. the first couple weeks. And the I. remember a story Parcells saw me. He's. like, "Brucey, Brucey, how much do you. weigh?". I said, "240." He said, "Bullshit." So, and then he yelled at the strength coach. to to get on me about it. And it was. just so hard cuz I was not used to it. The two-a-days, the intensity, I mean, how hard it was, full pads every single. day. So, the weight dropped off and I. remember him having me having mandatory.

weigh-ins to see if I would put the. weight back on and I wasn't. So, I mean, here I am, I'm in these in in the. tights. Okay, I got to I got to I got. nothing else on. I'm I'm weighing Our. strength coach is Johnny Parker. I pick. up a 10-lb plate. I pick up a 10-lb plate and hide it. right to my left and Johnny's to my. right and I just step up and weigh and. it was like 235. And I said, and Parcells never bothered me for it. >> [laughter]. >> Sometimes you got to. You need some help. But, yeah, in terms. of in terms of now, I I think the change.

was is warranted. I mean, it is it gets. pretty rough. You know, the guys to. survive now 17 6 16-17 games, eventually. 18. I mean, probably I mean, who knows. how many they want to go. You got to. take care of your guys and I'm not one. of those guys that say, "Oh, back when I. played, it was like this and it was so. hard." I just think the adjustment in. being able to adjust to what it is now. for the athletes, I think it's good that. we take care of them. >> I think so, too. Parcells and Belichick. similar? Exact same people? How different?

>> similar, but in in between, I had Pete. Carroll. >> Oh, okay. >> Which is complete [laughter] opposite, right? >> Yeah. >> You were there a long time. I forgot how. >> I was there 13 years. So, I had all. three of those coaches win Super Bowls. I think Pete really had to figure. himself out when he was there and he. figured himself out back in I mean, when. he went to USC and then ended up going. to Seattle and having the having the you. know Renaissance there and winning a. championship. But it is night and day. going from Bill Parcells to Pete Carroll. then Bill Belichick coming back and then.

I just knew what to expect. >> Adam Vinatieri's going into the hall. >> Man. >> Good for him, man. >> Man, I. >> Kicker going in, dude. >> I came in I came in with with Adam. We. he was a free agent. I was the third. round draft pick. I remember sitting at. a at a table in in training camp just. eating and Matt Barr was the kicker. Matt Barr was the kicker. And Matt. Barr's telling me this story telling us. this story as as I think he's open fan. mail or something like that. And he. wouldn't he wouldn't lick any envelope. to send it back. And we like, "Why don't.

you lick any envelope?" He's like, "Man, you never know what they can put on. those envelopes.". >> True. >> [laughter]. >> So that's the one story I remember. But. we were there and I was and I was. talking to Adam and like thinking, "How. are you going to make this team?" You. know, with Matt Barr as the kicker, Parcells how hard he is, loves his. veteran kickers. But you know, V won the. job. I spent so many years with him. there in New England, of course even had. an extended career with the Colts. So. proud of him. I love the guy. I mean, over at my house a lot. I mean, just. just.

so proud of of him that he's he's he's. going into the hall. >> Me, too. And he didn't think he was. going to get that job over Matt Barr, either. He was like, "I'm coming here to. be a camp leg or whatever." Vinny. obviously one of the most competitive. humans of all time. But he understood. that it wasn't a desirable position, but. he wasn't in the picking and choosing. business. Obviously playing for. Amsterdam in the World League and then. coming over and doing his entire thing. Vinny's story is a beautiful one and I. think we're all pumped for him, man. >> Yeah, we always embraced him because I. mean, his his mentality was that of more. like just the general football player, not the average kicker. Cuz he's a. little bit of prick, too.

>> QB, yes. Definitely he was. >> He was, yeah. >> He chased down Herschel. >> Herschel Walker. I was on that. I mean, it was I think that was our rookie year. Yeah, yeah. I was I was I was. >> [laughter]. >> I was the L3. I'm running like this and. I'm chasing and there goes V and I'm. looking I'm just like, "Oh my goodness, he is about to run down Herschel. Walker." And he got him in Dallas. It. was It was amazing. Yeah, I was. >> He's uh he was quarterback, wrestler, kicker like in high school. South. Carolina obviously. That play, yeah. I. mean that is. >> Beast. >> Super talented. I think he was going to. be a brain surgeon if he wasn't a. kicker. >> Was he jacked when he was playing like.

that? >> He's super jacked now. >> There are some photos of him when he was. young, super jacked. >> He always liked to do those curls. I. mean he was a kicker doing curls in the. weight room. What are we saying? [laughter]. >> Wrestler, Italian. >> Yeah. >> Yeah, he liked to look good in the. jersey. He liked to look good. >> Connor has a question for you, Teddy. >> Yeah, Teddy staying with the Patriots. Uh since you were there in the '90s like. those years with Bob Kraft felt like he. kind of built the foundation of what he. wanted the New England Patriots to be. and now here we are, you know, 30 plus. years later and the Patriots are what. they are. What was it like playing for.

an owner like Bob Kraft? You know, I. know Vinny asked. uh Carli or say to be the kind of person. that inducts not indicts him into the. Hall of Fame, but what was Bob Kraft. like and how do you think that. transition will go down the road from. Bob to Jonathan? >> Jonathan, yeah. It was I I was there so. my rookie year is '96 and Parcells is. the coach and there was some tension. between Parcells and RKK how he likes to. be referred to. Um but um.

and you can almost feel that as a player. like cuz I don't know what's going on. upstairs, fellas. I mean they got. management things, they got personnel. things and all that stuff, but I just. know. our head coach has a little bit of. problem as the with the owner and it's. like and vice versa. So is that the way. it's supposed to go? Because I remember. I mean even before the before the Super. Bowl the story came out that Parcells by. Will McDonough, the late Will McDonough. that he was going to leave and for me as. a rookie I'm like shocked. I'm like, "Wow." I mean and so and then having him.

go through that, come out the other. side, hire Pete Carroll, realize that's. not working, then hire Bill. And. I thought Bill Belichick was going to be. the head coach after the '96 loss. I. mean, so I'm we're on the plane going. back in '96 and Belichick is going. around to certain individual players and. talking like just whispering to them. And he comes up to me and he goes, "Hey. man, you had a great year. Just keep. doing what you're doing. We're going to.

get it right around here.". And I said, "Okay, that must be our next. head coach." That's what I thought it. was going to be. I think something. happened with Parcells that I think he. gave him the assist he's like, "You're. going to He gave him the sort of. structure about I'm only here for a few. years. You're going to be a head coach. of the New York Jets. That's how it's. going to be. That's how we lose him.". And so Pete Carroll came in. So, of. course Mr. Kraft is going through all of. that that drama and having to hire. coaches. So, he really learned in my. probably my first five years and then to.

watch to watch it you know through. winning championships that man, that's. probably the best owner in professional. sports. He's had a hell of a run. >> Yeah. Unbelievable. >> I think they even got a casino and a. Patriots Place and everything out there. in Foxborough. This is closer to Indianapolis than. Foxborough is to Boston. And when you. drive through Boston or Foxborough, you're going through it's just like. Lambeau. Nobody really talks about it. It's like a It's a New England town as. opposed to what your Green Bay town. looks like. It's a It's a special. special place up there that you guys.

were cheating in all the time. >> Yeah, sure. You know you know a little. bit of something else. >> Controlling the weather. >> Yeah, controlling the weather up there. All you guys that we beat, you know, and. so you go to. It's okay. >> I know you weren't there for it. Well, maybe were you you weren't there for. when you guys were flattening the balls. to beat us? >> I don't know what you're talking about. >> But nobody does. >> That was disproven. No, I wasn't there. >> It was disproven. [laughter]. >> It was disproven. >> Hey, the science guy came out early and. kind of got a good pop. >> What's his name? Neil de. >> TV science guy. Seen a lot of those in. in the past.

>> Neil guy. >> Does he go here Does he go here all the. time? >> Yeah, sometimes. >> No, no. Just with Just if we're talking. about just being impossible to win in. Foxboro for some reason, you know, just. felt like that was the case. And I was. in I was young whenever you guys were. still in the middle of the Tom Peyton. kind of battle that was taking place in. the Colts Patriots and you guys. obviously end up winning but the Colts. like nemesis here we go running into it. The way things were talked about heading. up there that week I was just like so in. awe of it. It's like oh these this is. the big bad wolf basically. >> What year was that?

>> 09. >> 09 okay. >> 09 I get drafted we we we we're up there. every year. It felt like we had to go up. there the first three years of my career. I think. We're going up there night game. in Foxboro. >> Yeah that was always a complaint. I. remember Polian he worked with ESPN and. he was always he was still complaining. >> Oh [clears throat] yeah I know. >> on the line of scrimmage and this and. all your jacket wide receivers what's. going on and they changed some rules and. all that stuff. >> Yeah we're about sick of people. reporting [laughter]. every play. I I I don't know if you're. supposed to report every play kind of. blames all in doesn't it but Bill Polian. shut down a training camp practice.

because he thought a plane was flying. too low. Thought it was you guys. And it. probably was. >> That's when you know you're in. somebody's head. >> Yeah I'd say I'd say. >> [laughter]. >> I'd say. >> I love Polian. I we we work we work. together a bunch on ESPN and he was he. was good and except for when he was. complaining of course. >> No that should be when it was the best. for you. >> [laughter]. >> Him shut literally looking at crowd like. this you know cuz this this. Oh we got youth football dads too. I. forgot about the parents. >> Yeah that was my first thought actually.

>> Oh my god this guy. I like this I like the intensity here. from the crowd. Did we Hey everybody how. you guys doing? These guys are on camera. I think. Are you guys on the Hey good to. see you guys. >> Yeah there's probably some real special. >> You were living in dying Anybody ever. told you you look like Marcus Mariota? You do look like Marcus Mariota. >> Yeah you. >> Yeah man yeah. You look like Mariota. You look like Marcus Mariota man. >> [laughter]. >> You look like Mariota. >> Who's that? >> Yeah yeah he doesn't know who that is. >> Teddy you lose? Are you Hawaiian?

>> No I'm Italian Filipino. >> Oh. >> Yes. >> Pisan I didn't know you. >> I've gotten a lot like like even when I. was playing it's like after the game. like, "Hey man, are you are you. Mexican?" Or they'll go, "Are you. Samoan?" Or like, "Are you Native. American?". >> [laughter]. >> The Italian Filipino genes contribute to. the hair. >> Yeah, you look un- I mean, the Italian. Filipino genes also contribute to you. looking like you're 35 still. >> [laughter]. >> Uh Mariota, here's a young Mariota just. get a reminder on eyes on what a young. Mariota would look like. >> That is. >> Wow. >> Yeah. >> [laughter]. >> Yeah. >> That's you, bro.

>> Yeah, there he there yeah right there. >> [laughter]. >> Former television personality Nicole. Pence of WTHR here, and there's young. Marcus Mariota Teddy Bruschi had eyes on. him. Last question for you Teddy, as we. know you have a busy day here at NFL. Flag Championship from Ty Schmidt. >> Yeah, Teddy Pat mentioned how Bill. Belichick has said that you were. basically, you know, you're the perfect. Patriot, the embodiment of what it is. >> to read the quote? >> Yeah, please do. Please do. >> Okay, cuz Hembo sent us the actual quote. this morning and. >> Tell Hembo I said hi. >> Hembo, what up? Uh from Teddy. He's. probably listening right now. He um.

Here we go. Ready? It is all the LeBron. stuff. I guess if you ask me to sum up how I. feel about Teddy Bruschi in 5 seconds, he's the perfect player. Perfect player. Probably. mumbled through this entire thing. He's. helped create a tradition here that. we're all proud of. The torch has been. passed and we'll try to carry it on. It's a high standard. It It's a high. standard. You see him like mumble with. perfect player. Perfect with this guy. He couldn't really figure it out. Sorry. about that, Ty. >> Oh yeah, thank you for clearing that up. Almost at a loss of words and we. obviously you don't hear Belichick say.

that about damn near anybody. You know I. mean, it's been very highly publicized. his relationship with Brady, but were. you surprised when he went to North. Carolina and I guess that he didn't get. an NFL job. And also just the way kind. of things went. I mean, obviously. coaching in college now compared to the. NFL is probably damn near two different. sports. Do you think that because he is. the greatest of all time that this year. we will see a much different North. Carolina team. Do you think eventually. he is going to get things right and.

we'll be talking about Belichick the way. we were when he was in the NFL because I. think a lot of people like to throw, you. know, like to throw stones at what he's. done, but part of it is kind of you see. what's happening and it's like man, you. just hope it doesn't tarnish what he did. in the NFL if he goes to Carolina and. things kind of just crash and burn and. he doesn't get it figured out. >> Yeah, I don't think whatever success he. has, I don't think it can it can tarnish. tarnish what he's done. I mean, I agree. with you. I mean, the greatest coach of. all time. I mean, I was so fortunate to.

play for him. I was surprised he went to. he went to North Carolina when isn't. that the same year when Saban said no. thanks? And so I like like didn't you get the. memo from Saban that like there were. guys. walk out of his meeting room asking for. $100,000 or something like that. I mean, because I think the money aspect of it. at that level takes away the kids from. realizing who that man is. You know what. I mean? It's like this is someone that. can turn you into something where you. will become something special as a.

football player if you let it. But the. motivation of I mean, I can't I can't. blame them. I mean, paying my mother's. mortgage and a lot of times over. supersedes that of playing for a great. coach. So, if there's someone that's. going to give me I mean, $25,000 more, I've really got to go. I've really got. to go. I mean, the situation that I was. in at 18 and when and where we were and. as a family it's like all right, mom, I'm going to get as much as I can. Okay, and then so we can we can pay off this. home. You know, so that's going through. the process of a lot of kids. I know. you're the greatest of all time, but. there's another school that give me a. little bit more. I'm sorry, coach, but I. have to go. And that takes away from who. he is. And I hate it because I would. love for all those best college football. players to have the experience that I. had with little Belichick.

>> Yeah, and I I he's still building, you know, they were supposed to they were trying. to run his ass out multiple times, you. know, last year. Emails getting leaked, full investigative journalism, which by. the way. I guess that is going to.

continue to happen forever, but Pablo, if he gets his you know, if Pablo gets. in there, he. he's going he's going to find out. He's. going to dig. There were some run I. mean, they were. And I started to wonder if it was other. people trying to recruit against him, too. Planting stories, saying things and. everything, cuz that's what the college. football world is that I don't think. maybe Bill expected or knew was going to. come. Him's still there. We got training. camp coming up. Lambo's still down there. watching film on high schoolers. Still. loving every second of it. It's like. they are still. All they didn't have a recruiting class.

They had zero recruits. So, I believe in. what they're going to be able to do, but. if you don't have the money, it's going. to be tough. To your point of literally. everything, but UNC, you would think. they got a really nice campus. Maybe. they'll be able to figure it out. Speaking of figuring it out, feels like. you've done that, sir, with this. particular life. You've done a great. job. >> It's been fun. Yeah, this is. >> Life, yeah, you've done a great job. >> It's my 18th year here. >> I mean, at ESPN? >> Yeah, I was I was going. >> I'd say it's your fault. >> Yeah. >> [laughter]. >> Oh, I get you. I get you. No, come on. >> Congratulations on your deal. >> I'm happy for you all of you. I'm happy.

for all of you. >> You guys. >> You guys have grinded, really. You know, and I respect that. And so, to see the. success that you guys have here, I got. nothing but respect for you. >> We appreciate you, man. Legit. And we. obviously we're all ESPN fans before we. joined there. So, any of this stuff. happening we don't love, you know, but. hey, it does feel like it's part of the. biz. 170 billion is what Disney's worth. right now. All right, so. >> [laughter]. >> We appreciate the hell out of you. You're the man. Thank you for joining. us. >> So are you guys. Yeah, thanks. >> We appreciate you watching us. We'll see. you in saying you watch us. We'll see.

you on the road. Can't wait for a great. football season. Thank you for. everything. >> Yeah, and and for these girls here and. these boys playing flag football, everybody watch this because these are. special athletes. >> Absolutely. This is the future, too. It. does feel like we're kind of in the. middle of it. >> Yeah, it feels like this is the tip of. the spear of what flag football is about. to become. And uh it's cool to be here. We're thankful it's in Indiana, and I've. been told yep, next year is NFL Flag. Championship also here. >> Nice, sweet. >> So, it's just like how the combine. started here like 1 year, and I was. like, "Well, it seems to make sense." I. think the people here in Westfield will. try their best to make sure this wants.

to stay here. Got the hotels, got the. fields, got the booze it looks like from. some of these dads. >> What? >> And. >> [laughter]. >> uh it should be a good time. >> Yeah, he's the man, ladies and. gentlemen, Teddy Bruschi. >> Yeah, Teddy. >> Appreciate it, guys. >> Appreciate it. >> Thank you, man. >> Best. >> The absolute best. >> Man. >> Italian and Filipino, he's going to look. like he's 40 till he's 90. >> Forever. >> Yeah. >> Good for you, dude. >> Might live to at least 200. >> Thank you, Teddy. >> Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't Did you say. your mom's Italian or Filipino? >> Which side is which?

That's Italian. >> Good call, right? Actually, Bruschi, I. would have said like Polish or. something, I think. >> If it was spelled s k i, yeah. >> c h is also an interesting. Yeah, I Yeah, I got you. Yeah, yeah, I. got you. Filipino food I I was thinking. if you had Italian mom, but Filipino. food. >> Also. >> Crazy, yeah, absolutely. >> Yeah, I didn't even think about. >> Yeah. >> See you, Teddy. >> See you, Teddy. >> Love you, Teddy. >> Yeah, I mean. Filipino mom, better. three-time Super Bowl champion. >> That's wildly. A man called a year.

perfect football player by a coach that. is not a first-ballot Hall of Famer. >> Somehow. >> That takes away from the comments a bit. >> Yeah, it does. >> It. >> [laughter]. >> It really does. It really does take away. just a bit. First-ballot Hall of Famer. says it, maybe we believe it a little. bit more. But, Teddy uh he's done great. things uh post-football career, too. In. the end of his career, you know, it I. think kind of came out of nowhere for. all of us, and then he pivoted into. television and has done phenomenal work. AJ, his style of play, you you talked a. lot about his head. He was a thumper, but you had to be in those days, right?

Wasn't that kind of a part of the entire. game? >> kind of came up in the thumper era, but. he he also like you said, 13, 14 years. there, he still had to move in space. He. never came off the field. The guy could. still cover and do everything, and. didn't he have I mean, he had a crazy. what he had an aneurysm what was it? >> I think he had a stroke. >> A stroke and then he came back after. that. >> Like a hole in his heart or something. >> Yeah, he had some super scary stuff that. he came like what an inspiration to you. >> year. >> Yeah, he's he's really he's always been. nice to us too. And that was cool what. he said to you the day before your. wedding. >> That was cool. Good advice. >> Teddy Bruschi advice yeah, he didn't. give me one of his Super Bowl rings but.

yeah, well it's okay. >> I think if you would have I think if you. would have got the the game right that. your poster was. >> Oh yeah, he said it was put out of game. >> That definitely did not help my case. I. don't know why he would want to just. kind of ride that wave with me but. that's. >> [laughter]. >> okay. That's okay. >> Hey, we don't necessarily need the. details pal. >> The montage photo, Vinatieri's kick was. on it, him throwing the snow up was on. it but that's okay. That's okay. I guess. I'll know now forever how his Dolphins. ended the regular season. >> And also he said that thing was just. coming right to him buddy. >> Yeah, show me your tattoo.

>> Those were dry. >> He was on the road in Cincinnati. >> Yeah, you didn't even show him. >> I mean it's well it doesn't say Teddy. Bruschi anywhere, right? >> [laughter]. >> [ __ ] you. He was not Yeah, he was not. >> biggest fan. >> He was on the team when he said this. >> All right, it's 1:37 Eastern which means. we have. about 20 minutes left to do whatever. we're doing right now. Whatever this is. but it is Friday so that means we have. to celebrate things. >> Yeah, we do. >> that have happened around the sports. world. It's becoming a weekly tradition. for us to do this and we're not. obviously the creators of this but we're.

certainly people that poached it and. said that's a good idea. We should do. some good and some bad from around the. sports world every single Friday to kind. of remind people of what took place over. the last few days. Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for five things that aren't. ass. >> HERE WE GO. >> THESE ARE THINGS THAT ARE NOT CONSIDERED. ASS from around the sports world that we. think should get a little bit more. pub. Now saying it in the middle of a. youth flag football tournament. >> They know it. >> It is interesting cuz they know it's not. ass too. >> Connected to your back. >> They understand it's not ass. Yeah,

absolutely. Let's go to uh. the man from Gremlin University aka. Gremlin gang. >> Oh [ __ ]. the. Good. I'm happy we're not doing that. one. >> Flipped it, yeah. >> Yeah, we're not I thought this was. things that aren't asked. >> Yeah, yeah, we're not doing it. We're. not doing it. >> cut that one. >> Let's go to uh. >> Put some pads on him. >> to the Group A Dunkman qualifier here. Let's go to Cam Hazard AKA Hazardous. Dunk, professional dunker. >> Geez, shoot. >> Double-handed. Super duper 180.

>> Yeah. >> Absolute yeah. >> Palm handle with the back touch. Brings it down. Cooper DeJean? >> uh it's Cam Hazard, but Cooper DeJean. could do this. A lot of people saying. 360, which I do appreciate cuz his head. was looking forward and he's moving. forward. The the planting of the feet. already 190°. Great move. This guy's way ahead of the. game. He's a professional. 360 dunk from. Cam Hazard. I'll tell you what, boys, that's not asked. >> No, it's not at all. >> Let's go to baseball, shall we? Let's go. to Angels third baseman Von Grissom.

Now, the sun has got in everybody's. eyes. Can you compete against it? Yes, you can. How about a bounce pass for a. double play? Huh? >> So stupid. >> So, I love everything about this. This. is the Angels park, so it feels like. they might know the dirt and the sun a. little bit at this particular time. How. often are you practicing that and how. often is this executed in baseball cuz. we saw that kick-it-a-doohah thing from. the pitcher last week said that never. happens. How about this? This feels. abnormal as well. >> Same deal, next to never. You're I mean, when you're practicing, you know, turning double plays, you want those to.

be clean and you're definitely not. bouncing one, spiking one like that. We. talked about this a little bit. It's. just great communication between. teammates. Second baseman probably came. to him in the dugout in between innings. and said, "I can't see anything out. there. So, if you, you know, we got to. turn two, you're going to hit me in. between the eyes and maybe knock me out, give me a concussion. Give me a nice. soft bounce, you know, Sunday hop and. we'll turn I mean, and what a perfect. throw for never practicing that. He. couldn't have thrown it any better. This. I mean, this is just beautiful, beautiful display of baseball. >> say. not asked?

>> No, not asked at all. >> Good for Grissom doing that and pulling. that off. >> Let's go stay in baseball. We have the. longest home run of the season is. officially been hit from Slam Diego. >> Oh my goodness. >> Fernando Tatis hits one 474. ft in an actual game. They were up 6-3. at the time. It would go to 8-3. The. Padres win. Atlanta Braves fan has to. eat a baseball from the concession stand. 474 ft away from home plate. What an. absolute bomb from the Slam Diego Padre.

>> Yeah, this is awesome because the story. of the story of the beginning of his. season that he didn't hit a home run for. like the first 2 months. So now that he. has one 474 the longest home run of the. season. Slam Diego is starting to hit a. lot. So watch for them the second half. the season. But good for him because the. the story to begin the season was that. he can't hit home runs anymore. >> And as we remember the beginning of. baseball season does not matter. You can be terrible, worst team in. baseball and then rattle off 15 straight. and go into first place. That is what baseball is. It's a game of.

runs. There's still enough time. You. will run out of time though. >> Yes, without a doubt. >> But there is still time for teams to. turn it around. Maybe 474 ft bombs, dongs will go ahead and do that for the. San Diego Padres. Let's stay in. baseball. How about a triple play? >> Yeah. >> Wow. >> How about a triple play? Play. Altuve. hits it to the third baseman. Bing bang. boom. Easiest triple play I've ever. seen. Let's get to Altuve replay. Did. that guy run that out to first? Did. Altuve run it out to first? >> Was he hustling early?

>> I didn't see him watch it. Let's say Leo. Jimenez is third baseman steps on third. fires it to Xavier Edwards and then he. fires it to first and Altuve. takes six jogging. >> Jogging out. >> Then he turns it out. He don't think. they're going to turn three. >> No. >> Instead they do. I love a good triple. play. So abnormal. Got to celebrate it. Why don't they do this all the time, Connor? >> Probably because usually guys don't just. jog to first base thing because Altuve. doesn't have the exoskeleton on him. >> That was not real. They said that was. not real. They said that wasn't real.

They. They were pounding garbage cans, but. they weren't doing any of the other. stuff. Allegedly, there was a camera, too, to help pound the garbage cans. Allegedly, there was no sensors on. anybody, even though he wanted to keep. his shirt on cuz he's too sexy and he. doesn't want anybody seeing him. Let's. go to darts. You want to talk about. abnormal? >> Oh, goodness. Now, this ain't ass. >> Now, this is Aspinall. Okay, he's taking. on the legend Luke Littler. And here, you're trying to race the 501. Triple. 20's obviously 60. Three darts per. round. If you get three triple 20's, it's.

180! >> [screaming]. >> Luke Littler, who's the reigning champ. over there of darts, Premier League. Darts, is taking on Aspinall here. In. the first leg, he just woke up. He just. got the entire place singing to him. And. he goes, "Am I going to go back-to-back. 180?". All of a sudden, 501 isn't as hard to. hit whenever you got 360 off the first. two rounds. What's left? We need 141. Is.

Luke Littler going to be able to do. that, or is Aspinall sitting like an. absolute duck? Luke Littler says, "About. triple 20. How about triple something? And then. double 15. And it it won't let me hit.". >> What's that? >> Let me That's a nine-dart domination of. Aspinall. He wins the leg. >> [laughter]. >> Come on, boys. >> I'll tell you what, Luke Littler's. throwing absolute heat over there in. England. And even Aspinall's got to say, "Come here, you lug. Come here. Kiss on the cheek.". That's how you start the entire thing.

Connor, you're obsessed with this. We. wouldn't have known this happened if it. wasn't for you putting it into our algo. Luke Littler's the one, and we just all. need to realize it. >> Yeah, he's the one also in leg four. He. missed a nine-darter on the ninth dart, and ended up winning that leg as well. And I do believe this is not breaking. This has been announced. I'm pretty sure. ESPN has the professional dart league. for next season. So, let's just say. night one to 17 is going to be. fantastic. >> And you're saying 180.

are coming right around the corner to. ESPN? >> Right around the corner at ESPN. And the. guy who does the 180s now is his first. season last season. He's fantastic. >> Okay, let's go to the Netherlands. Uh. flying Dutchman. >> Oh. >> This is at the uh Zwarte Cross Music. Festival. >> Oh, sure. >> Yep, 75 m. >> Jesus. >> sky. >> How's the landing? Doesn't seem like. that's exactly how they planned for it. Either a broken ankle or a concussion. We don't know who got what there. Multiple flying Dutchmen did get injured. throughout the week. But here we have.

Kasey completing a 75-ft. hawk from a giant catapult. I'll tell. you what, Age, might be worth the price. of traveling to the Netherlands to see. these flying Dutchmen get launched and. sent through the sky without any real. control, it seems like. That was the. most chaotic flight I've seen from a. flying human. >> Yeah, I would. I had to over over rotate a little bit, I guess, at the end. You don't think you. want to your feet first. But so this was. that What did you say he was This was. not shot out of a cannon like the old. circus act? It's a catapult. It's a. catapult. That's a little different. Can.

you imagine I always wondered those. people coming out of the out of the. cannons, like how What's it like. slithering down in there? Do you push. off? Like I don't This is a little bit. different. [laughter] But I mean, I. guess if you miss, you're dead anyway. So, >> What. Whoa, whoa, whoa. You're saying this is. all scientific? >> I'm saying if someone, you know, they. don't calibrate this thing right and. they throw you 80,000 ft over that back. >> Well, how far can you be is what you're. really asking? >> Yeah, there's I would assume I would. assume they have that weight dialed in. >> Did I hear earlier I thought Bruce was. saying there were supposed to be seven. guys that went in the first two broke an. ankle and got a concussion. >> No, one of these guys got a broken ankle.

or a concussion. It was the second guy. >> And they said the rest of the five were. like, "You're not going." And they're. just randoms they're pulling out of the. crowd? >> Yeah. Yeah. >> I don't I think that's I think that's. super duper flying Dutchman right there. These are stuntmen that sign up for it. And I'd like to say before I'm dead, I want one of those. >> Okay. We got [laughter] We got room out. back. We should do it. >> I think we should think about. >> That would be sweet. >> a squirrel suit off a cliff. I want one. of those. >> That's a bad idea. >> The squirrel suit? >> There's a great documentary on it. You. should do it. >> I watched that documentary. Everybody. dies. >> You got like a 90% chance of dying. >> Well, just don't try to don't the.

proximity flying. That's what you can't. do. Don't try to go 8 ft off the. mountain. >> Yeah, but that's how you get max speed. >> Yeah, that's the point. >> No, but also that's how I get my dope. GoPro footage. >> Exactly. >> And uh it's. uh 90% mortality rate, but. >> Things get fed hogs get slaughtered. I. only want to do one. >> Yeah, there you go. >> That's fine. >> I only want to do one. >> And one catapult thing here. >> Good news, no one's ever died on the. first one. >> You're right. >> That's what I heard. >> Yeah. >> No drug smuggler from another country. back in the day before um 2001. ever got caught on the first drug.

smuggling. >> Exactly. >> It was always the 40th or 50th. >> That's right. >> And telling their story if I'm supposed. to feel bad for. >> anything once. Anything. >> know. I don't know about that. >> No, anything. >> I don't know if we should we should. really check that. >> Bible. >> Uh those are things that weren't asked. >> Yeah, yeah. >> Hell yeah. >> Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for our. version of not good. Ladies and. gentlemen, it's time to hop on a train. That train's TITLED. >> OH, NO! >> SOCCER CAPTIVATES THE WORLD. LET'S GO to. Bubba Gumpinos' favorite team, Inter.

Miami. David Beckham owns them. MLS is. back. Big bump. >> Oh, boy. You got to be You got to be. [ __ ] ME. >> OKAY. [snorts]. >> OH, NO! >> [screaming]. >> RIOS NOVO, THE GOALIE THERE, UH STARTED. 17 games last year, only one this year. I got a funny feeling he's not going to. be on the same field Messi's on whenever. he gets back from his break after the. World Cup. Gumpy, how's this happening? Are Miami were you guys a little bit too. nervous for the big soccer bump that. came off the World Cup pound?

>> Yeah, Lewandowski's first game for the. Chicago Fire. There he's kind of running. in on the goalie. He hasn't played in a. long time. Inter Miami bounced back. though, won this thing 3-2. >> Oh, did they? In spite of that, I don't. know how you do that. Turned off after this. >> Yeah, they. So there was how many millions still. left on then? >> No, no, no. Messi wasn't playing. Nobody. watched that [ __ ] game. >> We did. >> The stadium was not good. That's my. problem though. We get all excited about. World Cup. We were talking about it. I. said, "Hey, I'm a Man City fan now. I'm. going to watch Erling Haaland this year.

I will. I'll do it." What's the first. clip I see post World Cup? >> [laughter]. >> I can go watch that at the the church. near me. Yeah, here. On a Saturday with. eight-year-old girls and I don't even. think they're going to do it. >> So. >> How often does this happen? >> This is team won the league last YEAR. THEY WON THE TITLE. >> THEY WON THEIR TITLE. BACK UP. >> Are you kidding me? I DON'T CARE. >> DID THIS IN THE BELGIUM GAME, BASICALLY. >> YEAH, not in the World Cup. >> Yeah, I mean I'm about sick of our. goalies and I don't think this guy is. necessarily. >> Yeah, he did get booed. People are. saying America does love the game of.

football because their goalie got booed. after what he did in the World Cup. >> Okay, Gumpy's trying to spin it as if it. matters. I'm very worried about the. Belgium game. I'm very worried about the. final being the way it goes. I'm very. worried about everything that's being. said about Messi and that potential. Argentinian team and then that being the. first showcase game back for the MLS. >> Not 70 million though for the. What was that? The final? >> The final. >> In the US, pretty good. Telemundo. >> Pretty good. >> Lads who were posted up on the bleachers. behind us are now getting ready to go do. their game.

>> Game time. >> Good luck, boys. >> Good luck, boys. >> Good luck, boys. >> What's that? Puerto Rico? Hey! [screaming]. What's that bunny song? >> I tell my aunt I got a new girlfriend. I. have a new girlfriend. Why I got so many [singing] girlfriends? >> Is that the good. >> Hey, good luck out there. Muchas gracias, amigos. >> How was the bunny at the World Cup. halftime show? >> Cuz he got the Super Bowl. >> Yeah, cuz he got the Muppets there, right? Huh? Miss Piggy, who what what.

was that tie-in? >> Where? >> At the World Cup halftime show. Yeah, I. don't know. There was like Muppets that. would pop up here. >> Ted Lasso. >> No, other than that, there was animals. there. >> Everybody loves the Muppets. >> Hey, what's the crack, boys? What's the. crack? Got some Irish lads back here. >> Yeah, good work. >> Good work, lads. Yeah, Slainte. >> [laughter]. >> Favorite player? >> And he got Padrigo. >> Uh-huh. All right, that's. >> There's no McQuaid? >> Padrig McQuaid. >> Good luck, boys. >> Good luck, Padrig. >> know McQuaid?

>> Michael McQuaid. >> NFL McQuaid. >> NFL McQuaid. >> Yeah, of course they do. >> I'm McQuaid. >> He actually. >> The FI. >> All right, all right, let's uh. >> Brad Pitt of Ireland. >> Pro football Ireland. >> Hey, good luck, lads. Good luck, lads. >> [laughter]. >> Bob Mahan. >> Oh, there he is. >> That's the Brad Pitt. >> Brad Pitt of Ireland. >> He's the big daddy of Ireland. >> I'll tell you what. >> Big daddy, I saw him wearing a Batman. mask. I'll tell you, if he starts. walking around like that, we will. certainly appreciate it. He does a show. with Patrick McEnroe. >> That's right. >> Okay.

>> Of the McEnroe tennis family. >> Yes. >> So, big daddy's obviously coming to our. life. Congrats to the Irish lads. Welcome to Indiana. Enjoy yourselves, boys. How old are you guys? 15. Oh, they're they're at home. They're. all right. >> Slugging pints again. >> THERE'S A PUB DOWN THE STREET, BOYS. >> No beers here, boys. No beers here, boys. Jeez Louise. >> These guys are going to have a crack. >> No, do not have a crack, lads. You'll. end up in jail here. >> the G's or celebration. >> All right, let's move along. Hey, good. crack, boys. Good crack. Seamus is. coming to actually play with these guys. >> Oh, that'd be a fantastic.

>> [laughter]. >> Uh let's go to uh a bike race. This. triathlon world poor. >> Oh, yeah. >> Coolen is the guy's name, and I'll tell. you what, he's trying to cool off, and. the guy just couldn't. couldn't. couldn't. couldn't get a what? How about this one? Duh. What's this guy got butter on his. fingers? >> Got a bottle on his bike. >> Unbelievable. They've been doing this in. biking since the beginning of time. Literally grabbing things, whether it be. like a salt pack, so they can get some. uh. whatchamacallits,

electrolytes. They got the water. There's little packs you can suck. Tim. Mackey used to do these types of turns. There's so many things. The handoff. normally not a problem cuz it's like. desperate, not even think ah. This guy. dropping five straight bottles of sweet. I'll tell you that is certainly a big. time OH. >> NO. >> BUT EVERY BOTTLE GIVER who is there just. to serve these bikers and loves them. thinks that they're going to be the one. that's going to be able to complete the. handoff here and just one after another. he bats that [ __ ] out of their hands. It's almost like he's. trolling them. It was just funny bang.

boom bang. No comment from Cooling about. all the fooling out there while he was. trying to cool down. >> Yeah, I need a little bit of help from. the people giving the water bottles. You. know, I see a lot of stagnant people. Yeah, you got to go with it. It's like. catching an egg. You can't just catch an. egg. You got to kind of move a little. bit. The one guy that tries to do it, he. skips actually. Right here this guy's. moving with him. Instead he says, "Oh, okay. Never mind. That was the last. one." He didn't get a chance to do it, but earlier on on three here this guy. tried to, but yeah, I mean tough scene. Got to do that. Unless it was a strategy.

and he was just trying to eliminate as. many bottles as possible. >> Yeah, and potentially you know, it is. like a green turtle shell. Yeah, you. know, like dropping down or maybe a. banana. Yeah, I think he might have been. doing a little Mario. Kart. We're not 100% sure. We believe. that race was in Singapore. We hope. Cooling went on to finish. Just kind of. finish that race. I don't I don't think. he's winning. We watch him go. We go, "Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. OH, NO. NEVER IT SOUNDED like a little bit of a. 50 cal. >> [laughter].

>> Yeah. >> Laying and scun you. >> That guy who fell off the gun. >> Let's go to the uh. >> [laughter]. >> Kicked off the building. >> Unbelievable. >> Let's go to the AFL, not Australia. This. is the Arena Football League. Ref wants. to get in on the action, huh? Yike, you. want to get eyes on it? How about. getting a. Boom. Nowhere to go with those walls. Nowhere to go. That's got to be the. number one cause of injury to refs, not. being able to get out of the way cuz. there's nowhere to go. AJ, how many. times have you thought about doing this. to a ref?

>> [laughter]. >> Yeah, you Hey, that's a real thing. You. will try to run through them on your way. to the ball carrier times. But, this guy. looked like his head banked right off. this wall. I would imagine they're going. to make these refs start wearing uh. helmets like they do first and third. base coaches now. They wear the little. helmets. >> Yeah, and I hope it has a camera on it. so we can at least get a POV of this guy. getting demolished. Buddy, we're happy. you're up and smiling. Thank you for. being a good representative of football. Let's go to the 3M Open golf, shall we? You know, golf's game of inches, centimeters if you will. Here is lovely. Jake Knapp. We all know him. 171 par. three.

>> Peaceful. >> Oh. >> Got it. >> What? >> That going? >> Set. >> Oh, no. >> Oh. >> Oh, no. >> Didn't go in. >> Oh, no. >> Let's stay in golf. Charlie Woods, this. guy's just trying to do his own golf. path. Turn it up. >> All right, you jerk. >> Oh. >> Jeez. >> COME ON. >> A COMIC BOOK. >> BAD. >> PHOTO sound. >> How do you EVEN GET THAT SOUND? >> IN HIS BACKSWING. >> COME ON.

>> AS soon as we see it, we go, "Charlie, this is going to be your life, bud. There's going to be a lot of cameras. flashing. I don't know how the golf. etiquette's going to be at some of these. tournaments as you're trying to grind. your way through it." And as soon as we. heard the replay, cuz there was another. angle that didn't have any sound. And we. thought, "Wow, Charlie, oh no. Charlie, can't be like that." Then we hear this. angle and we go, "PHOTO SOUND.". >> OH. >> NO. >> [screaming]. >> "HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE A putt with. this going on?" Speaking of making a. putt, let's go to the LPGA. They're over in. Scotland. >> Oh, boy. >> Charley Hull, we obviously are a big fan. of her. She will smoke on the course and.

she will certainly beat the hell out of. a golf course. This time, course got. her. >> Mhm. >> This is a putt for birdie. >> Okay. >> Hold on. >> Rolling. Sit. Sit. Sit. Sit. Gone. >> That's a tough pin placement. >> Yeah, it is. >> Ah, that's the Scottish Open though. They want to find the greatest LPGA. golfer out there in the world. She's got. a chip now. How's that go? Uh right back. to her. >> Okay. >> This is a hook situation taking place. She does it again, what happens? Back to. her. She would go on to get a nine.

>> Oh, with a birdie putt? >> Yeah, and you can't help BUT JUST GO. >> OH, [screaming]. NO. >> HOPEFULLY HAVE A COUPLE UH I KNOW WHAT. THEY CALL IT OVER THERE. I'M not going. to call it. >> No. >> Right. Can't call it that. >> What do they call it, AJ? >> I was going to ask you, Tone, honestly. >> I'm not sure he's even talking about. >> they say it a lot in Ohio. >> Yeah, they they picked up some English. >> [laughter]. >> They picked up some English vernacular. >> Yeah, I don't know if they're talking. about cigs all the time, but I. I hope she had a couple cigs. I hope she. went on to do good. And we love you, Charlie. THAT'S A BIG.

We have golf. 3M Open, baby. Scotty. Minnesota. Scotty Scheffler's. there. If you saw, he played his pro-am. with Kevin O'Connell. He did not ask him.

who the quarterback was going to be, but. he did ask him some football questions. >> I like that. Okay, thank you guys. >> Brickyard's here. >> Brickyard 400 is happening in. Indianapolis. Obviously, NASCAR. Blaney. and Hamlin, Mr. McMasters from Canada. told me it's probably a two-horse race. between those two. >> But he said don't sleep on Keselowski. >> And then he said. >> He don't think Keselowski's going to. win, but oh man, he'd love to. >> What about MJ's guy? Didn't he win like. six races? >> That's Hamlin, dammit. No, it's the. other guy. >> No. >> It's the other guy. >> Denny Hamlin.

It doesn't Shout out to.

Rich Paul answering his phone today. whenever big news happened and getting. LeBron on the show today. We always try. and do that. We always try and get. LeBron on today. We'll try for next week. just to see how that all goes. Congrats. to him, congrats to the Sixers, congrats. to us, congrats to sports, congrats to. everybody. >> Congrats. >> And uh. obviously. before we go, we have to spotlight. the WNBA All-Star weekend. >> [ __ ] yeah, let's go. >> Team Coop, pardon my French. >> Another Spoon. >> Yeah, Coop and Spoon. >> Coop and Spoon battle, three-point. shooting contest got a lot of hype and a.

lot of noise around it. Sabrina said she. wasn't invited. >> Yeah, pretty much. And then one of the. other girls who got invited basically. said like yeah, it was like the most. half-assed thing ever how they invited. me. And now rumors are coming out that. they kind of want Engelbert out. They. they this might be. >> Engelbert, she's the commissioner of the. WNBA. >> Excuse. >> saw it on the bottom line this morning. I was shocked for one, but that's if you. [laughter] know, that's that's pretty. much the whole update for the WNBA. >> Cathy Engelbert was very good to us, has. been on our show. Kind of think Dan.

Patrick was talking [ __ ] about us. whenever he was doing his entire thing. about how hard his questions are and. everything like that. So we appreciate. her for that. On that note it does feel. like there is building momentum for. maybe a nice refresh. And if her legacy. as the WNBA commissioner is negotiating. that incredible media rights deal that. she was able to get done, I think that. would be a successful run as a WNBA. commissioner. But they are certainly. riding that bucking bull of being a. brand new into everybody's conversation. with superstars and how you can do it.

and Caitlin Clark's the epicenter of it. obviously. And the way that's all gone, people are wondering how is it how are. >> Mhm. >> how is this what's going on? I believe. in Cathy, I like Cathy, I appreciate. Cathy for what she's done for us, but it. does feel like that decision gets made. by people that aren't you. >> Correct. >> And uh that's kind of life as a. commissioner, but once again, the media. deal. >> Good deal. >> No one's talking about that. >> No. No, no, no. >> Not anymore. >> Yeah, not anymore. >> Be a friend, tell a friend something. nice. Kathy, it's all you did great. That's the media deal. If that's all it. is. And if you get back in the saddle,

continue being in the saddle, and you. figure it all out how to make this. league as big as possible, they're still. going to find reasons to not like it, but we do think you should do that. Right? Hang your hat on that. Be a friend, tell. a friend something nice, it might change. your life. We're in this thing together. Shout out to the crew here. Shout out to. everybody. Team on me. Team on three. For the good of sport, baby. One, two, three, three. Goodbye. >> [cheering].
