00:00I mean, Scott Van Pelt shouted him out on SportsCenter.
00:03The play-by-play guy shouted him out when it hit.
00:06Incredible. This has become... I mean, it's officially national news.
00:12Yeah.
00:12Trending is like, Big Cat wins another one.
00:18Rundown, March 10th.
00:22Bingo.
00:22I was gonna say February. Megan McImani, Tate. We are presented by DraftKings,
00:28who's scoring big in the NBA season.
00:30You are, with all the new ways to get in on the action,
00:33with my partner, the DraftKings Sportsbook,
00:34an official betting partner of the National Basketball Association,
00:38which I'm a fan of. I have pretty much every team logo on my shirt right now.
00:41DraftKings is the home of NBA player props.
00:43You can get behind your favorite players to watch in any way,
00:45from Monster Slams, Ditching the Rock, to Cleaning the Glass.
00:48It's super easy for first-timers to get started.
00:49Try betting on something simple, like picking an NBA player prop.
00:53Let's go with Carl Anthony Towns, over 13 and a half rebounds tonight against the Kings.
00:59Here's a special first-timers, new to DraftKings.
01:02Bet $5, get $150 in bonus bets instantly.
01:05Again, take it to the rack with the DraftKings Sportsbook.
01:07Every point counts.
01:07On the DraftKings Sportsbook, I use promo code RUNDOWN.
01:10That's one word, RUNDOWN.
01:11New customers get $150 in bonus bets when you bet just five bucks,
01:15only on the DraftKings Sportsbook.
01:16The crown is yours.
01:17I should probably revise that pick.
01:18They're saying the messaging is for NBA,
01:21but Big Cat is the hottest gambler on the planet right now.
01:2616 and 0.
01:27He put out his pick for today.
01:28It is College of Charleston against UNC Wilmington, over 146 and a half.
01:34He moved the line.
01:34That jumped to 147 and a half within 10 minutes.
01:38Whatever that over is, he's been clear on all of them.
01:41This is incredible.
01:42You previously had a similar streak.
01:44It was a while ago, which was a long time ago, about five years ago.
01:48But yeah, it was an undocumented 16 and 0, but a documented 15 and 0.
01:53Congrats to Big Cat for being hot.
01:56And I did walk up to him beginning of March and said,
01:59it's a good week to get hot.
02:00And I don't want to say that I helped start the hot streak and insert myself,
02:04but he stayed hot after I said it was a good week to get hot.
02:07So there you go.
02:09Yeah.
02:09I mean, I've been tailing him, I think since seven.
02:13So I'm 9 and 0, and this is the best run of my entire life.
02:16I've got him on notifications every time.
02:18He tweets a lot.
02:20But it's worth it because if you've been following,
02:23he moves the line within 10 to 15 minutes of what it is.
02:26And it's such a pressure, honestly, once you've gone 60.
02:30That one more, once you get around that five, six,
02:33you start to feel really, really good.
02:35But after you get past those double digits,
02:37the pressure, especially with everyone riding Big Cat,
02:40obviously has so many people following him,
02:42not just on Twitter, but his bets.
02:44The pressure really does start to get to you.
02:47Shout out to Dan for being able to hold it all together.
02:50I mean, Scott Van Pelt shouted him out on SportsCenter.
02:54The Play-By-Play guy shouted him out when it hit.
02:57Incredible.
02:58This has become, I mean, it's officially national news.
03:03Trending is like Big Cat wins another one.
03:06Have you been tailing him?
03:07Yes.
03:07I started on Saturday.
03:09I've been replying to all his tweets since he was like,
03:11whatever, seven, eight, nine, something like that.
03:14But I wanted to, you don't want to be that guy
03:16because I was pretty cold to jump on and he loses.
03:19Then on Thursday, when he was like,
03:21when Dave was like, I'm going to jump on,
03:22Big Cat was like, everyone jump on.
03:25All right, let me wait a minute.
03:27That, he kept going.
03:29And so the next day I was on and I've been on ever since.
03:31So you were, was it the Missouri game?
03:33Yes.
03:33That was.
03:34Dead.
03:35That was the craziest, I'll say this,
03:37and it happens every weekend.
03:3730 points past the last two minutes.
03:39Last two minutes of the game, there's 30 points.
03:41For Big Cat to move to 15 and 0.
03:43Out of 60, his birthday part is my favorite part.
03:45He's surrounded by like adults and like Chuck E. Cheese.
03:48Yeah.
03:49Yeah, I'm fooling.
03:50The one thing, the only regret I have right now
03:53is that I'm just trying to get bullets for March Madness,
03:56like conference training or whatever.
03:58So I haven't been rolling it over,
04:00but I've been just doing my,
04:01so I am plus nine units or whatever,
04:03but I saw someone did the math online and they said that.
04:06It was like $100,000, something like six figures.
04:09Is, I think it was if you rolled over a thousand
04:11every time you'd be up like $10 million.
04:13Oh Jesus.
04:14Yeah, it's something crazy.
04:16Unfortunately, I, like you Che,
04:18once I see someone get hot, I don't really want to touch it.
04:22So I've been playing my own games.
04:24Not a great weekend for me.
04:25So I should have tailed Big Cat.
04:26So if you're not tailing a Big Cat,
04:28I don't want to say now is the time to jump on
04:30because we're now 16 games deep,
04:33but we might as well hop on the DraftKings Sportsbook
04:35and tail Big Cat.
04:36There you go.
04:36There you go.
04:38One of my favorite types of bets on DraftKings
04:41is next team NFL.
04:42And you can pick where a free agent lands.
04:44We saw a couple of guys.
04:45First off, we saw Myles Garrett, your guy,
04:47get a monster new deal.
04:48The line on that was Cleveland, I think was,
04:51I think they were always the, they had the lowest odds,
04:55but it moved from like plus 250 to plus 130 like day of.
05:01And I know, cause I check it every day.
05:02I was like, that's weird.
05:04And then shortly after he gets the big contract.
05:07How, are you excited about that?
05:09I mean, he's the best defensive player probably in football,
05:11but.
05:12It's a lot of money.
05:13It was weird.
05:13I've, the national media has been making this
05:16into like the biggest thing.
05:17He did release like a letter,
05:19like a thank you fans letter,
05:20but like, hey, I'm leaving.
05:22Like I want out.
05:24Credit to Andrew Barry from day one.
05:26He has not entertained.
05:27He's like, we're not listening to trade offers.
05:29We're not trading him.
05:31He is the best defensive player in the year.
05:33I remember the day it happened.
05:34He said he wanted out.
05:35And Andrew Barry said,
05:36we're going to work on an extension instead.
05:38So my thing is this with the Browns.
05:42If we traded him,
05:43we were officially in obvious rebuild mode.
05:46Like we have no intentions of winning.
05:48Hold on.
05:50Joel Batonio just announced he's not retiring.
05:52He's coming back.
05:53He's a guard.
05:54We just extended.
05:56You're going to say we need a fucking quarterback,
05:57aren't you?
05:58I mean, you you're leading the,
06:00we're not rebuilding that your older guard is coming back.
06:04I'm saying Miles Garrett.
06:06My point is that Miles Garrett didn't want to come back
06:08unless he had like a vision of we're trying to win now.
06:10He is coming back for 40 million a year.
06:13Our guard who could have retired
06:15has to know something that we're not just packing it in
06:18or else he'd be like, screw this.
06:19I'm not doing it.
06:20I think the Browns are going for it.
06:21I want Kirk Cousins next.
06:22Aaron Rodgers.
06:25All right.
06:25I mean, wouldn't you rather be losing on purpose?
06:29I don't want to be in rebuilding mode.
06:32I think that we are,
06:34if I was the GM,
06:37I would like to get a veteran quarterback in here
06:40draft the best player available at number two
06:43and try and win some football games
06:45because I think our roster is not that bad.
06:47This sucks because you're in it
06:49and it is very difficult to see it
06:52and accept it when you're in it.
06:53But the reality is that Andrew Barry is going to be fired
06:59and he's doing this to retain his job
07:02to be like, hey, we'll bring you guys back.
07:04Yeah.
07:05But this is the worst thing that could happen.
07:07I mean, if you trade Miles Garrett
07:09two first round picks
07:10Yeah, or something in that neighborhood this year.
07:12Also, what does what does paying him that much money
07:15do for like the rest of the market?
07:17I mean, Michael Parsons is going to get paid
07:18even more than that one.
07:19I mean, it's not that Michael Parsons
07:21is necessarily better than him.
07:22It's just like the next guy up
07:23is always going to get paid more.
07:24So I mean, Max Crosby reset it 36 hours,
07:29not even before that.
07:30So someone's always going to be raising the bar.
07:34It's a lot.
07:34I mean, who cares about winning
07:36when you're making $2.35 million a game?
07:39I saw that tweet.
07:40That was an incredible breakdown.
07:41It's just every game, win or lose $2.5 million.
07:44That rocks.
07:44Yeah, not bad.
07:46Do you think it was a ploy the whole time
07:49out of Miles Garrett?
07:50Or do you think eventually they were just like,
07:51hey, is there an amount of money that you would say
07:54you'll just come back to Cleveland for?
07:57I mean, I think it's special to be a one jersey guy.
08:00Like, I think unless you're going to win a Super Bowl
08:03and it's like, you know,
08:05if he's going to a team that was in the playoffs
08:07and like pretty close,
08:08like if he's going to the Eagles,
08:09he's going to the Eagles or Washington,
08:11it's like those teams you could see
08:14as, you know, potentially being in the Super Bowl.
08:16He could maybe put them over the top.
08:19Obviously, Washington a little bit harder than Philly.
08:21But still, like, I think I kind of think about it
08:24like Kevin Garnett.
08:25Like Kevin Garnett was a Minnesota Timberwolf.
08:27He just wanted to be a Timberwolf forever.
08:29And then, you know, he was like,
08:31all right, it's not happening here.
08:33Treat me to a contender, goes to Boston.
08:34Now he's, you know, not only a Timberwolf legend,
08:37he's a Celtics legend and that's great.
08:39If he had stayed in Minnesota the whole time,
08:41do we look at him differently?
08:42Like Charles Barkley didn't stay in
08:44and Patrick Ewing didn't stay in, you know,
08:46New York the whole time.
08:46But, you know, they're pretty much those guys forever.
08:49Miles Garrett will be a Brown, it seems, forever.
08:53And that is a cool, that is a cool thing.
08:56But like, he's so good, you kind of want more for him.
08:58We're, okay, I'm calling a timeout though.
09:01But listen, the Browns are bad.
09:03Everyone knows it's a dumpster fire of an organization.
09:06Hardest division in football too.
09:07Hardest division in football.
09:08But my point is, we were in the playoffs two years ago.
09:12Like we have, we went one and 15, we went oh and 16.
09:16This Miles Garrett has just been dealt
09:18the hardest hand in the entire world
09:20is not the most accurate narrative.
09:22He was in the playoffs with Baker.
09:24He was in the playoffs with Joe Flacco two years ago.
09:26We have talent.
09:27This past year was an embarrassment.
09:28It was disappointing, it sucked.
09:30We can still win.
09:31It's not like he's going back to a team
09:32that's going to go one and 16 next year.
09:35I might be a homer.
09:35I just, yeah, it comes down to who the quarterback is.
09:38Like obviously last year wasn't good enough.
09:40Flacco was kind of lightning in the bottle
09:41with what he did.
09:43But yeah, what's the plan?
09:45We'll see.
09:46Kirk Cousins.
09:47Kirk Cousins is the plan.
09:49That's a crazy plan.
09:52The big news from yesterday,
09:54DK Metcalf traded to the Steelers.
09:56This was, your request is-
09:57I can just feel Jerry oozing from wherever he's at.
10:00He loves DK too.
10:01He's the perfect Jerry receiver.
10:03He's super rocked up, super fast, controversial.
10:08He is-
10:09So fucking fast.
10:10He's so fast.
10:13I think there are going to be games
10:15where Jerry absolutely hates DK Metcalf.
10:17Oh yeah.
10:18But-
10:19But then there's going to be games
10:20where he wants to French kiss him immediately after.
10:23Listen, you thought I was all in on Rossi?
10:27Wait till you see DeCossi.
10:30Just one more ride with Rossi.
10:32I can guarantee you he's winning a playoff game or two.
10:36I got to see it.
10:37I got to see Rossi one more time with DeCossi.
10:42If that doesn't show you right there
10:45that Rossi's coming back,
10:47I don't know what will.
10:48Rossi to the moon.
10:50That combo that they have of Pickens and Metcalf is like-
10:53It's the funniest combo in the league.
10:55The Bass Brothers, yeah.
10:56They're the Bass Brothers and they-
10:57They're the Bass Brothers.
10:58They're ultra talented.
10:59They're extremely athletic.
11:01They don't have a quarterback.
11:02Yeah.
11:03Ben Roethlisberger joked about coming out of retirement.
11:05Oh god.
11:06I mean, we'll see what they do.
11:08The word on the street was they're going to
11:10re-sign either Fields or Russ.
11:13But now there's talk like Aaron Rodgers could go there.
11:15He has a relationship with Mike Tomlin.
11:17We'll see.
11:18We don't know because Twitter's down.
11:20Yeah, that can't happen.
11:22It's been down for like an hour and a half.
11:24Yeah, with all these NFL free agent moves,
11:26it would be really nice if we could get that news.
11:30We're taping something.
11:31We're not going to get into what it was.
11:32We're taping something today.
11:34We're off-site and we weren't on our phones the whole time.
11:39And we get off and PFT goes up to me.
11:42He's like, did you hear who the Bucs signed?
11:44I said, no.
11:45He's like, well, Twitter's down.
11:46So he's like, I can tell you if you want.
11:48I was like, well, obviously I want to fucking know.
11:50But Twitter has been down for, at this point,
11:52we're taping this at 1130.
11:54About three hours, which is crazy.
11:57Thank God Big Cat got his pick out before Twitter went down.
12:00Yes.
12:01But...
12:02I was thinking that.
12:03I didn't want to say it out loud.
12:04What is your, what are you guys going to do?
12:06I mean, we, this company, we have email.
12:09We've got an Instagram.
12:10We have email and we talk to each other.
12:13But we live on Twitter.
12:16What's your screen time?
12:18A lot.
12:19North of eight a lot.
12:20Yeah.
12:21Yeah, I'm between eight on Bad Weeks 12.
12:25I was eight and I'm between eight and 12.
12:28But I think that's a lot of my night time and bed phone time.
12:32I think there's, this shows how bad we are as a civilization
12:36where it's like Twitter's down for three hours
12:38and I'm refreshing to see if it is back up.
12:42That's where we get our news.
12:43That's where we get bored.
12:44We're in, Che just drove us back from the event
12:46and I'm just scrolling, scrolling, scrolling,
12:48hoping for the five minute car ride that I can get online.
12:51I think I've logged in and out of my DK Sportsbook
12:5455 more times than I normally would with Twitter being down.
12:58We kind of live in this fantasy world where this is like,
13:01I mean, this is obviously a tough job to get
13:04and a job a lot of people want,
13:05but this is not like a real world.
13:07This is like real world when Slack goes down
13:09and you just can't talk to any of your co-workers
13:11and be productive.
13:13So it's tough times right now on Twitter,
13:15especially all these NFL signs.
13:17Well, there's certain days of the year
13:18where it just can't happen.
13:19Any day of Twitter.
13:20This is one of them.
13:21Yeah.
13:21They'd be like, like if true TV,
13:23like the one time of year you watch it is March Madness.
13:25It's like a true TV's out on the Thursday of March Madness.
13:29I got to take, there's two days I would like for Twitter
13:31to be down for everyone, NBA and NFL draft.
13:36I think you would get a hundred percent,
13:38well, 99.9% approval rate,
13:40except for the two dudes that ruin it for everyone.
13:44I don't hate them doing that.
13:48Well, you don't hate, because they're doing their job.
13:50Yes.
13:50But you hate as a consumer that it gets ruined, right?
13:52Well, then you just don't, just don't get on your phone.
13:54Yeah, you can knock it on your phone and stuff like that.
13:57I went to...
13:59You gotta have some self-control.
14:01I went to like seven straight NFL drafts, I think,
14:03or seven out of eight in a row.
14:06Insane.
14:06And it was before Twitter was like as what it is now.
14:11And so still the most, I'm not a Jets fan at all.
14:14I hated the Jets most of my growing up.
14:17Still the most exciting moment from the draft
14:20is the Jets trading up to get Mark Sanchez,
14:21because they traded up, they announced there's a trade.
14:25Everyone's like, the Jets have traded up.
14:26They're now on the clock.
14:27Everyone's like, what's happening?
14:29It was in the Radio City Music Hall.
14:32Most people are Jets fans.
14:34And then they cut to the green room
14:35and Mark Sanchez is on the phone talking.
14:38The whole place just erupts.
14:40That's a moment that now cannot be replicated
14:42because of Twitter.
14:43Even the college football playoff this year,
14:44was it Brett McMurphy spoiled it
14:46before the selection show?
14:47He said, Alabama's out.
14:50It ruins, it sucks, but it like ruins surprises.
14:53It ruins moments.
14:53But I also love Twitter and would have traded
14:54for like, you know, almost anything.
14:58Almost anything.
15:00Almost anything.
15:01Family man.
15:02Yeah, yeah, I get it.
15:03I'm a family man.
15:04Speaking of family man,
15:05I keep my family safe with SimpliSafe.

16:16There's no safe like SimpliSafe.
16:18I don't talk about this a lot.
16:20One thing I will say for SimpliSafe
16:21is that my daughter is almost four

16:26But one of the things that we always do,
16:29check the cameras, kitchen, outside,
16:31everything's safe, no monsters.
16:33So shout out to SimpliSafe for protecting our home.
16:39Josh Allen got a new contract,
16:40330 million or something like that,
16:42something just astronomical.
16:43MVP contract.
16:45I mean, yeah, MVP, one of the best players in the NFL,
16:48super young.
16:51What are your thoughts on just getting
16:52all this money at that age?
16:54I mean, I think he deserves it.
16:56Certainly.
16:58I wouldn't know what to do with all,
17:00I mean, I'd say I wouldn't know what to do
17:01with all that money,
17:02but my first thing would be,
17:03I would put some in the savings for the kids
17:05and then I would buy something off the grid
17:07and just like be on the beach every day.
17:09What would you buy?
17:09A house somewhere off the grid,
17:11but like on the beach
17:13where it's like I can set up my own shack
17:15and sell like daiquiris
17:17and just like work when I want to.
17:19You'd set, when you get $250 million,
17:21you set up a shack to sell daiquiris.
17:23Yeah, but a super sweet house.
17:25I want a simple life out,
17:26it's like my work life,
17:27I want to like be able to like chop it up
17:29with the locals,
17:30like sell some chips to the kids,
17:32but like no stress.
17:34I don't want any stress at all.
17:35Have you heard the adage,
17:37this is way off topic,
17:38but the story about the old fisherman
17:40that sells fish on like the back of a boat
17:43and eats it.
17:44So basically he's a really good fisherman.
17:46Here's a little language arts story for you guys.
17:48He's a really good fisherman.
17:49He lives on off the coast
17:50in like a whatever,
17:51very low quality, whatever.
17:54And he eats the fish every night.
17:55And then people find out
17:56he's really good at doing that.
17:57So they start to pay him to take him out
17:59and he does that
18:00and then he buys another boat
18:01and then he starts a big company, blah, blah, blah.
18:03And he does all this and keeps moving up,
18:05making more money, making more money.
18:06And they said, what's your goal here?
18:08He goes, I hope by the end of this,
18:09I have enough money that I can just
18:11go out and fish every night.
18:12And that's what I want to do.
18:14I want to go fish.
18:15Why would you sell daiquiris if you have?
18:17No, because I would sell it just for fun,
18:20like for it to have other people enjoy them.
18:21And I would drink the daiquiris too.
18:23And I would just sit on the beach
18:24and like someone's like,
18:25hey, can I have another daiquiri?
18:26It's not like a super crowded,
18:27like Florida beach.
18:28I'm saying I'm off the grid.
18:29I'm talking people are like,
18:31there's like maybe 15 people on this beach.
18:33It's I don't need to sell the daiquiris.
18:35I want to.
18:35My problem.
18:36I'm exactly the same as Megan.
18:38If you gave me $5 million right now,
18:40you would never see me again.
18:42The problem is you give Josh Allen 250 million guaranteed.
18:45Megan says she wants to go to the beach.
18:47He's still, how do you still play football?
18:49How do you still watch film?
18:51You give me $250 million guaranteed.
18:53I'm like, I'm the most complacent person
18:55in the entire world.
18:56Yeah.
18:56Favorite tropical drink go.
18:58Uh, probably Miami Vice.
19:03Banana monkey.
19:04Banana monkeys are good.
19:06Like chocolate.
19:08It's kind of like a mudslide,
19:09but with banana, I think it's good.
19:10Miami Vice is half pina colada, half daiquiri.
19:12Pina colada's pretty good too.
19:14And get a floater on the top.
19:15That's what I'm saying.
19:16Come to my beach, Che.
19:19You can come fish.
19:20You can come have a daiquiri.
19:21The last like beach tropical drink vacation
19:26I went on with my wife,
19:27we were gone for, I don't know,
19:29three days or something like that.
19:30But then the second day I had a tropical drink
19:32and I was like, oh, you should review that.
19:34And then I just spent the rest of the day
19:36reviewing tropical drinks on her team.
19:38And she just like hated it.
19:39And I think I did like nine tropical drinks
19:42and just got horrible diarrhea.
19:43Well, wiped out the third day.
19:44You can't mix.
19:45You gotta just stay.
19:46You can't just go from tropical to tropical.
19:49It's all sugary.
19:50And I know.
19:50Yeah.
19:51Yeah.
19:51No, that's a lesson learned.
19:54I got it.
19:55Got a couple good videos.
19:56So Josh Allen, if you're watching,
19:58just don't drink a lot of tropical drinks
20:00whenever you have your 250 guaranteed.
20:02It'll give you diarrhea.
20:05Garrett Cole.
20:06Needs Tommy John.
20:07So he is out of underwear.
20:09Tommy John, the best underwear in the game.
20:12I don't really know too much about baseball.
20:14Tate, what is the deal?
20:15Tommy John is elbow, correct?
20:16Yeah, he's going to be out for the year.
20:17He, it's gotten much.
20:20They used to be like the kiss of death.
20:22It's not great.
20:22You can have two surgeries and still be
20:24one of the best pitchers out there.
20:26Point being, they were
20:29the ALCS champions last year.
20:30They're representing the American League
20:31in the World Series.
20:32He's their best pitcher.
20:34They've now lost Soto to the Mets
20:36and they've lost their best pitcher for the year.
20:39Well, he's awaiting second opinion,
20:40but I would say the Yankees were coming in hopeful
20:44or especially after last season.
20:46They don't look like they're going to be as good this year.
20:48The American League is as wide open as you can imagine.
20:51Like the Dodgers are the class of league,
20:52but they're in the national league.
20:53So I don't know.
20:55This is obviously bad news for Yankees fans
20:58and for Garrett Cole,
20:59but I would say for the rest of the American League,
21:01it's kind of cool that the best pitchers
21:05is not going to be in the league this year.
21:07Yeah.
21:07If I ask a curious question,
21:09it is March 10th.
21:11When did this injury happen?
21:13Because the season's starting in a couple of weeks.
21:15Why is this coming out now?
21:16Did he get hurt in spring training?
21:18Doug, you got anything for us on that?
21:20I didn't read it.
21:22Dougie baseball.
21:23Go on to Twitter, Doug.
21:24I just need everyone to know
21:25it's not because I hate the Yankees.
21:26I just hate Garrett Cole.
21:28Yeah, why do you hate Garrett Cole so much?
21:29Whenever he decided he wanted to leave the Astros,
21:32the way he fucking left after,
21:34obviously, we have an Asterix by our name that year.
21:39The way he left, he was just a fucking prick.
21:43Didn't even have the Astros cap on.
21:45Had a fucking, just a free agent.
21:47He just wanted to be a free agent.
21:48Fuck you.
21:49I just don't like him.
21:49Discomfort in his second spring start.
21:51And yeah, he missed a lot of time last year,
21:53I believe, too.
21:54Can you go up a little bit, Doug?
21:56I don't think he started until midway.
21:58I don't think he did either.
21:59I think he missed quite a bit of time last year.
22:02Yeah.
22:02I mean, the offseason is, you know,
22:05Halloween till March Madness.
22:08Yeah.
22:09Did this not pop up beforehand?
22:13And granted, I do not know very much about baseball.
22:15If I was a Yankees fan, I'd be pretty pissed about this.
22:17Yeah, if you're a Yankees fan.
22:18If it was bothering you before, were you not?
22:21I don't know.
22:21I don't know.
22:22It can happen like that.
22:22Like, I know the, yeah, that's-
22:24You could, yeah, you could,
22:25like, the way he throws to you,
22:26like, one, like, wrong twerk of the ball,
22:29like, and he could feel it in his elbow.
22:30Like, he could have been fine.
22:31And then, like, he could have twerked it the wrong way.
22:33And it just is now an issue.
22:37One wrong twerk.
22:40We got to talk about the drama from Friday.
22:42Oh, God.
22:43Nikki Smokes, Annika.
22:45It all boiling over.
22:46And what, in my opinion, front to back,
22:50I think that was the best yak we've ever done.
22:54And that's including post-credits,
22:56which is a big part of it.
22:59Brandon Walker resigned.
23:00Congrats.
23:013-9-2030 is the next time we will-
23:05Have another funeral?
23:06Yes, we will.
23:07We will do this again.
23:08I hated that, by the way.
23:09I really, like, I'm-
23:10You legitimately cried.
23:12I am a big, like, real person where I believe-
23:14And you knew he wasn't leaving.
23:15I know.
23:15I've known forever.
23:16And it just, like, just sitting there thinking about him,
23:19like, because the email specifically said not to roast.
23:23So it was like, in my head,
23:24I'm writing this heart-filled, like,
23:28I just wanted to tell Brandon how I felt about him.
23:30And I love him.
23:31And so thinking about him not being here
23:33made me really, really sad.
23:35And then Nikki Smokes and Annika
23:36started yelling at each other.
23:37Then I had to follow that.
23:38And I was like, it was a lot for me personally.
23:42My favorite part was just the reactions to it.
23:45You had Jack McCarthy freaking out in the cave,
23:47just like-
23:47Jack McCarthy.
23:48Brandon Walker jumping up and down.
23:50Oh, yeah, that was hilarious.
23:52It cut through everything.
23:55Did you see the Mincy clip?
23:56No.
23:57I thought Mincy stole the show.
23:58It's at the very end of Viva TV.
24:00So the whole thing had just happened.
24:01It's the most awkward situation that I've been here for.
24:04The show is still going on at this point,
24:05the episode with Annika.
24:06And Nikki Smokes and Annika,
24:09I'm sorry, Nikki Smokes and Ella are out in the kitchen.
24:12Like, they dap each other up.
24:13And they're, like, basically, like, talking to themselves.
24:16Like, yeah, we're just friends.
24:17Like, yeah, we're allowed to get drinks, whatever.
24:19And I'm just standing there, like,
24:21staring, like, this is crazy.
24:23And then, to break the ice, Ben Mintz walks in and goes,
24:27what's up, fellas?
24:28And I'm like, hey, Mincy.
24:30And he goes, how's everybody doing?
24:31He had no idea what just happened.
24:35I said, I'm doing good.
24:35Mincy, how you doing?
24:36He's like, I'm doing good.
24:38Glad to hear everyone's doing good.
24:40That's why we're friends.
24:41I'm gonna pretend that it was true.
24:45What?
24:46I know I love this.
24:48I live for this.
24:50Hey, Mincy, what's up?
24:51How we doing, boys?
24:53Good.
24:53How's everything?
24:55I'm good.
24:56Good.
24:57Good, you're good.
24:58Well, it was funny, too.
24:59I saw that exchange a little bit.
25:02And then Nikki had walked away.
25:04And there's just Ella and Mincy sitting there.
25:05And I was like, man, if that's, like, your first, like,
25:09drama at Barstool, the last person, respectfully, Mincy,
25:13to come up to you that you want to talk to you about, like,
25:15how to handle the situation is Ben Mintz.
25:18Oh, he'll tell you.
25:19Yeah, he'll tell you.
25:20He'll tell you.
25:21But it's like, oh, man, am I really getting my advice from
25:25this outlet?
25:27They do have a ceasefire right now.
25:28I don't know if you follow that.
25:28They do.
25:30Yeah, it popped up on my timeline.
25:32Michael Greer said, like, this is my personal, I forget what
25:35it was, Middle Eastern.
25:36Who's gonna, they're not, they're gonna break the ceasefire
25:39because they respond to every single thing the other person
25:42says.
25:42They might as well just get married, just fall back in love.
25:46That would be quite a scene.
25:49We would have to have the wedding, like, on the Ek.
25:52Yes, that's what I'm saying.
25:52Yeah, yeah.
25:53The Ek wedding.
25:54The Ek wedding would be great.
25:55That would rock.
25:56That was very fun.
25:57Any other things post-show from you guys?
25:59Conference tourney week for basketball.
26:01Yeah, big, big week.
26:02Exciting time.
26:02Lots of streaming coming up soon.
26:04Yep.
26:05It's gonna be exciting.
26:07Got my, I'm getting my bullets ready for March Madness.
26:10I'm gonna have all the bullets ready in my DK account.
26:13Yep.
26:13Ready to take down DraftKings.
26:16Single handedly.
26:17So technically Big Cat could be 23 and 0.
26:22If, well, I'll say this.
26:23Don't, don't, don't extend it that far.
26:24One day at a time, Cheche.
26:26If he makes it to Wednesday, I saw Eddie tweet this.
26:28If he makes it to Wednesday, it is going to be like
26:32an immovable object, an unstoppable force.
26:34Because on Wednesday is when there starts to be like
26:37500 games.
26:38Yeah.
26:39From like 9am to 2am.
26:41Dan likes to gamble too much to pick just one.
26:45Yeah, we'll, we'll, we'll see what he does.
26:47I, I'm hoping this thing gets to 20.
26:48That would be incredible.
26:50Incredible.
26:51I mean, it's incredible right now.
26:52It is.
26:53You gotta call it spade to spade.
26:54It's absolutely incredible.
26:56It's amazing.
26:58And honestly, for as much time and effort and money
27:02and screen time that Big Cat has put into and losing the money,
27:06he, he, he earned this 16 and 0.
27:08It was, it was inevitable.
27:10It was going to come at some point.
27:11And I'm so happy.
27:12He's seen the board well.
27:13He's seen the board well.
27:15Where I pick last night when I saw it, I was like,
27:18all right, I'm betting on Omaha of Nebraska.
27:22Who's already, did you watch it?
27:24No, the fun.
27:25I think my favorite thing about, I told him earlier.
27:28My favorite thing about it is like, you've got, oh, no way.
27:32You've got half the country right now.
27:34Intently watching the Omaha, Nebraska, St. Paul,
27:38who was a division three team.
27:40Like I'm watching the game.
27:41So I think they hit the over with like two minutes to go.
27:45I watched every second of that game.
27:46They hit the over, turn that shit off.
27:49Like no chance.
27:49Do I care who wins?
27:51Yeah, but shout out to him.
27:52Hopefully he keeps it rolling.
27:53Yep.
27:54Shout out to Dan.
27:55Shout out to you guys.
27:56Shout out to DraftKings.
27:58Thank you guys for watching.
27:59It's been the rundown for March stuff.
28:02See you guys later.
