From Waste Management Mayhem To A Defensive Super Bowl

Recorded February 9th, 2026 

One weekend, three rollercoasters: golf’s rowdiest stop, a rivalry that refused to breathe, and a Super Bowl that crowned defense without apology. We kick off with the Waste Management Open, where Gotterup up kept smashing, Scheffler flipped a slow start into a charge, and Hideki fought like crazy before one brutal bunker moment changed everything. Then came the viral sideshow: a clout-chasing interruption at the worst time, and a reminder that golf’s edge lives right between chaos and class.

College hoops delivered a different flavor of chaos. UNC and Duke traded haymakers, bricked makeables, and still set up one of those finishes that make the room go silent. We unpack the runs, the halftime reset, and the simple math that betting the second half pays when a rivalry tightens and legs settle. It’s the kind of game that etches itself into memory without needing a trophy—pure execution and nerves.

The Super Bowl took the long road and still felt inevitable. Seattle’s front got home with four, the secondary squeezed windows, and a patient ground game wore down the clock. Walker walked away with MVP without scoring, which tells you everything about control, consistency, and the value of success rate over highlights. The Patriots flashed hope, then ran into protection math they couldn’t solve. We also talk props and promos—the long-shot defensive score that cashed big, the longest touchdown bet that swung on a dime, and how to read a low-scoring script before kickoff.

From Pebble predictions and Fowler’s encouraging health update to offseason NFL futures and a hard look at quarterback plans, we keep it practical and honest. If you like clean breakdowns, betting angles that match game texture, and the pulse of what’s next, you’re home. Hit play, join us for the ride, and tell us your boldest takeaway from the weekend. If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend, and drop us a review—your support keeps the lights on and the takes sharp.

Opening Banter And Super Bowl Timing

Announcer 0:06

Welcome to another episode of the Bald Guys on the Bench Podcast with your hosts Graham Cohen and Scott Waska.

Graham 0:20

What's up everyone? Welcome back to another episode of the Bald Guys on the Bench. It's Scotty Waugh. Oh my god, what a weekend. Super Bowl weekend. How you doing, brother?

Restaurant Fallout And NFL Year-Round Cycle

Scott 0:29

I'm doing good. Monday night, a little late. My partner in crime here on the podcast got a little banged up last night and as usual, been whining all night. You know what time it is? Oh, dude, you're not allowed to say that. Let's grab it. Let's crack it. And let's get this party started. Let's go. Let's go. So, like we said, Monday night, the big game was yesterday. Football's over. And just a warning out there, just letting everybody know. It's a one-year warning. Uh, the Super Bowl is on Valentine's Day next year. So uh, you know, guys, you better start planting that seed right now, you know. Well, what had happened was you know, the Krista and I were talking about earlier, the thing that sucks the most for that is like restaurants. You know, getting that Valentine's Day money.

Graham 1:31

True, true.

Scott 1:32

Everybody'll be going out on Saturday now.

Graham 1:34

Yeah, I mean, as someone that's worked in the restaurant business for a long time, there's plenty of times where, you know, especially when it's during the week, you know, we'd have a lot of customers that would come in that weekend prior or after just because availability for them just it makes it easier. So I mean, look, they'll still get the business. It's just hey, it changes things a little bit. And you know, when you ask what the other partners thankful for, I'm thankful for football on Sunday. So and you too, maybe you too.

Weekend Recaps And Vegas Watch Party

Scott 2:04

But uh, anyhow, we got a big show. Uh like I said, football's over until August. But like we always talk about, the cool thing about the NFL is what it's year-round. Free agency, the draft, what we think's gonna happen. And before we even get into it, something that shocked me last night, dude, they're in the locker room throwing champagne all over each other, and homeboy's like, yeah, I'm celebrating tonight. Tomorrow I'm the Raiders head coach.

Graham 2:36

Yeah.

Scott 2:37

Like, and showed up in Vegas today. It's like, can my guy celebrate a little bit? I mean, sheesh, but hey, you know, pretty I was shocked that it happened that quick, but you obviously didn't know that because you were too busy typing, I'm him, you ain't it. But we'll get into that in a little while. Uh Graham, how was your weekend?

Graham 3:02

I just what'd you do? You know what? Just because you like to stay at home and be insulated and you know, hang out with the fam and do your thing for Super Bowl. Hey, do you? Some of us got plans, some of us had, you know, opportunities to go to places and do things and meet some people and shake some hands and have a good time. And that's what your boy did. Got invited.

Scott 3:29

And get blacked out and don't remember the fourth quarter.

Graham 3:32

First of all, that's not true.

Scott 3:34

Let's go back to the weekend. We'll get into the game.

Graham 3:36

Yeah, yeah. No, I'm I'm I'm I wasn't talking about it. Uh yeah, no, the weekend was good. Watched the little uh Olympic competitions. Too bad for Lindsay Vaughn. Ah, that was rough. Brutal. Brutal. Um the word I mean, I would say the craziest part is I was actually up at the time, so I was watching it live at three o'clock in the morning. And I was just I just happened to flip it on, and I was like, ooh, this is what's up. And then just waiting for and then I saw what happened. I was like, oh, brutal. But anyway, um, just watched some of the you know, waste management, was excited to watch golf on Saturday, and then Sunday was just all preparation for the big game. Went out to Stadium Swim at Circa, got to hang out in the presidential suite, as they call it, the or presidential bungalow or whatever you want to call it down there, and it was sick. Uh hung out with some friends, brought a friend with me, brought my pops with me, had a great time, enjoyed a few beverages and cocktails, had some uh finger foods, and had a great time. So that's pretty much for me. What about you, brother? How was your weekend? I can't forget about you, brother. How are you doing?

Waste Management Open Breakdown

Scott 4:47

Oh man. Let me show you my shock face. I can't believe you actually asked. Weekend was good, dude. It was I said last week it was Kellen's birthday, couldn't do the party because of the snow and stuff, so it was Saturday night. All the grandparents came over, you know, did that whole deal. Uh watched a little golf, won some money on golf, and you know, watched the Duke Tar Hill game Saturday night, and then the Super Bowl last night. And folks, Graham just said yesterday what he was doing was preparing to go to the game all day. Uh I talked to Graham, you know, what time? 4 20. So, you know, the game's at 6 30. So two hours before the game, I talked to Graham about something. It was at 4 15, and my guy had just woken up. So when he says prepared for the game, what he really means is he slept all day. But anyhow, uh the golf, dude, let's let's just jump right in waste management. You know, they call it the people's open, you know, the crazy, rowdy, you know, insaneness that is in Scottsdale. But round one, dude, Scotty, uh two over? Like, what? I know. I mean, uh, in one of those moments, Thursday night, I'm sitting here on DraftKings and I'm like, where can I find a total overunder for what Scotty's gonna shoot on Friday after doing this? Finally found it, it was 66 and a half. I'm like, you know what's coming. Done deal, plus 130, easy bet, shoot 65. But then I'm looking on DraftKings after that first round, and I'm looking at tournament finishes. Top 20 was like plus 300. Top 10 was like 500, and you know what he's gonna do, but didn't do it, but anyhow. My guy, dude, my guy goes 17 under in the second, third, and fourth round, finishes one shot out of the playoff.

Graham 7:13

Uh, you know, that's that's pretty decent. Not bad.

Scott 7:17

Wild, wild, insane. Uh I mean, you just knew what he was gonna do. You know, it's crazy. But anyhow, dude, is anybody hotter on the BGA tour than Godter up? I mean, two wins already.

Graham 7:36

Yeah, I mean, hey, when you give someone an inch and they take a mile, Matsuyama, I mean, come on, bro. Look, uh you you gotta get up to Goder up. He still did what he needed to do and he still won. Look, I get it. He took advantage where he had to. The putt that he made on the 18th just to even have a chance. Let's go. Um straight Kansas.

Scott 7:57

It's just Hey, and you can't you can't take anything away from Hadeki because my guy battled all day yesterday. He hit two fairways and still had a one-shot lead going into the last hole. I mean, battled, bro. Battled.

Graham 8:19

Exactly. And that goes back to is the glass half full or half empty? I mean, you yeah, he battled, but he battled because he had to. You can't keep it in the fairway, like, come on, bro.

Scott 8:31

Well, remember, it is desert golf. I mean, it's dome golf, but still, he it was insane until it wasn't. And by it wasn't 70 second hole, one-shot lead, snaps it into the fairway bunkers down the left over the water, they're church pews, not like Oakmont. My guy has 102 yards to the front of the green. He's got a gap wedge in his hands, he's not even that close to the lip of one of the church pews, and he just goes straight Vince, blades it right into it. I'm like, oh my gosh. Couldn't even believe it.

Graham 9:10

Could not believe it. That's where every fan's watching it says, Hey, they're like us. I beat Could not believe it.

Scott 9:19

I and then hits his third on the green. He's got 15, 20 feet, lining up for his par putt, and some jackass in the crowd yells as he's standing over the ball, backs off, misses it. Obviously, they're going to a playoff hole, they're playing 18 again. See a tweet from beating the bookie. I'll take 10,000 on Goddard up to win this for a thousand for you know, guaranteed. Right. I'm like, done. Dude, Goddard up laces one playoff hole, Matt Hadeki, straight snap hook. Yeah. Off of a marshall goes in the water. Oh, yeah. Game over. Goddard up makes that birdie put on and wins. But dude, uh, I don't know. Like you said, glass half empty, glass half full. I just gotta look at this Goddrop guy and be like, good gracious, this guy He's figuring it out. Is something uh straight pounding the ball.

Graham 10:29

I mean isn't his ball speed like I heard it was like 182 this week, pounding it 315 in the air on the fly. When you're flying at 315, I got I got news for you. F you dude.

Scott 10:45

I mean, Sheffler on the 18th hole has to make birdie to get in the playoff. Uh, I think he hit it 340. Jesus. Like, goodness gracious. But anyhow, great event. The 16th hole wasn't that crazy this year from when I watched it. Uh, it just wasn't wild. That might have something to do with the alcohol issues. I don't know if if they're still limiting it, but it just wasn't wild. And I saw something yesterday on Instagram that made me think about this as I'm going, 16th hole wasn't crazy. There was some dude that was in one of the suites, and he's like, hey, this is what a $150,000 suite on the 16th hole will get you.

Announcer 11:33

Yeah, I saw it.

Scott 11:35

150, you know. But I don't know. I don't know. It's a fun event, it's not my favorite. We talked about it last week. I mean and then Hadeki on the playoff hole, literally taking the club back to hit his t-shot, and some ass hat yells at that and stops it. Yeah, that's not golf, dude, at all. And speaking of assholes, that little slap dick YouTube sensation, what's his name? Doherty Schmorty.

Graham 12:08

Jack Doherty.

Golf Etiquette Meltdown And Influencer Drama

Scott 12:10

Yeah, I'm such a douchebag, I gotta have bodyguards with me. Paying somebody a hundred bucks to yell jackass. Come on, guy. Stick to what you know best, and that's being a douchebag. Don't go to golf tournaments.

Graham 12:25

I mean, well, he ain't anymore.

Scott 12:28

Yeah, exactly.

Graham 12:30

What an ass hat. I just love his defense. Well, I didn't say anything. Bro, you paid someone a hundred dollars to do it. Like, everything's cause and effect. Dude, everyone has cameras now. Everyone around you rags. Exactly.

Scott 12:43

Like, and and guess what? They don't know who that slap dick is that you paid a hundred bucks to. Guess who they know? You, for some stupid reason that you're rich and have more money than anyone because of YouTube and but whatever.

Graham 13:00

Dude, what do you think's gonna happen? Like you said, everybody's got a camera somewhere. He f'd around and found out. I just love uh, you know, as as they kicking him out, you know, talking to the tour official and all this BS. He's like, after he gets his ID back and he's walking away, he's just like, man, he's like, go off stupid anyway. He's like, why am I even here? And I'm just like, dude. Right? You're here because you're trying to make content. Your whole shtick is being a douchebag. Like, all your whole shtick is instigating stuff to film to make content for views. What do you think was gonna happen?

Scott 13:43

I love the PGA tour guy when he tried to get his ID back and he goes, You can have it when I'm done talking to you. I was like, Let's go, guy. Yeah, who do you think you are? You little curly haired whatever.

Graham 13:56

Yeah.

Scott 13:57

Uh enough talk about that guy. Like, I can't even, whatever. I mean, I don't even uh on to Pebble Beach, first signature event of the year. You know, I'll take Scotty to win for a thousand, please.

Graham 14:15

I mean, I don't I don't know. I mean, got her top 20 or what? Got her up or how whatever you need, you know.

Scott 14:27

That's I I don't disagree with you at all.

Graham 14:30

Dude, golf's all about streaks. You gotta play the hot hand.

Scott 14:34

And he's I mean, he's been hot, obviously. Yeah. Another person we talked about last week was Siwoo Kim. Yeah, you know, all the top finishes. Well, let me go back real quick because I I'm so pissed I didn't put this in the notes because I knew we talked about him last week. Uh he finished what? What did he finish? Uh T3. Okay. And not only that, but round one, he shot two over as well. And then yeah. And then finished uh 15-2. So him and Scheffler 17 under on three rounds.

Graham 15:15

Yeah. Well, hey, those conditions on Thursday, if you got out early, that wind was favorable. Towards the midday afternoon, it started to get a little windy out there, and it definitely affected those scores.

Pebble Picks, Scheffler Heat, Fowler Update

Scott 15:26

Yeah, the greens were a lot firmer than normal. Yeah. Which obviously from the wind. But hey, little shout out to our boy Romance and Fowler, T18. Let's go finished nine under. I mean, didn't show him much yesterday. That was pissing me off. They showed him a whole lot of bunker shot. But uh, which was sick. Uh, but hey, great playing on the pebble. Uh, a lot of people that listen have asked me. A report came out because of a podcast. Fowler was on a motor, actually, a motocross podcast. Uh, people probably seen the clips on Instagram. Uh Rick was actually talking about his shoulder injury that you and I have talked about after I had dinner with Romance. Yeah. A lot of people, it finally came out public, and people were asking me about it. That's why coming in that top 50 last year was so huge. Because he didn't have to play in the fall, he could take some time off, you know, heal it, get some treatment, get going. And hey, I like where we're at right now. Talked to romance last night. He goes, dude, he's striping it. He's got his old school confidence back. And he's gonna get that dub. And if anybody can show me on DraftKings where to find a Ricky Fowler win on the PGA tour this year, please show me because I can't find it anywhere. Um, but anyhow, let's jump right in Saturday night, dude. And before we even get going on this, uh Graham over there in Vegas, even though he's banged up from last night, owes your boy a shot. Because those tar heels got that dub. So, Graham, what are we taking a shot of, my guy?

Graham 17:26

Uh, my tears. Uh, going with the uh the old faithful, the uh Redwood Empire bourbon. Okay.

Scott 17:42

I gotcha.

Graham 17:43

I gotcha.

Scott 17:44

Take it. Let's see it. I want to see it.

Graham 17:47

It's here.

Scott 17:48

I know, I see it.

Graham 17:50

I hate you so much. Well, wow, you gotta video it too?

Scott 17:55

No, I'm not videoing it. I'm just taking a picture of it.

Graham 17:57

Yeah, yeah. I'm turning around. Screw you.

Scott 18:00

Oh, you know what? Oh, yeah, do that so I can see that bald spot. The choice is yours. Oh, that wasn't a shot. That was like a sip. That was a stip. Like you didn't even taste that. There you go. That's a little half better. But anyhow, dude, like I said, Saturday night, I have grandparents over. We're all hanging out for Kellen's birthday, watching the Heels game, and it starts off, it's like, oh my gosh, dude. You know, the what everybody was waiting to see, sorry, before I even get into it, was what, like Dick Vital calls them, used to call them, the diaper dandies, right? Wilson for Carolina, Cameron Boozer for Duke, both gonna be top five picks in the NBA next year. And everybody wanted to see it. We couldn't wait. You know, nobody knew what to expect. I didn't expect Carolina to win. I told you that the night before. But in that rival, who knows? I mean, you're talking about the best rivalry in college basketball, you're talking about two schools that are blue bloods that have that history that are separated by eight, nine miles. I thought it was six. No, it's eight to nine miles. But it's insane, right? Insane. You don't know what to happen. Duke starts off, they're laying the wood. Carolina can't do shit. Can't hit the like I always say, they can't hit the ocean from the beach. And then they they start getting hot and get it to I think a point, and then Duke's like, yeah, hold my beer, we're gonna go up 12. Dude, Caleb, I forget, I think he had 20 some point or 17, 18 points in the first half. And I'm like, oh man, I don't know, I don't like it. But I kept saying to my dad and Andrew, I'm like, what's his name? I hadn't even made a hadn't doesn't have a point. The Great White Hype. Yeah.

Graham 20:11

And they not a point, dude.

UNC vs Duke Thriller And Betting Sweat

Scott 20:14

It was all Caleb. And then I'm like, like the guys on ESPN said at halftime, Caleb might score 40 at the rate they're going, but Carolina ain't gonna score 50. The way it was looking. And then, you know, old halftime happens. Easiest bet, second easiest bet of the weekend was Carolina minus a half a point in the second half. Yeah. Uh that worked out well. But anyhow, dude, the first half, your boy took the over 70 and a half. Uh one of one of the few losing bets this weekend uh hits at 70. I'm like, really? Four or five missed foul shots. Carolina's got the ball with 12 seconds left in the half, and whatever. Don't care. Because the result of the game is all that matters. I mean, down 12, let's go. Outscore Duke 42-27 in the second half. And the stat, like everybody says, dude, Carolina didn't lead the game until there was 0.3 seconds left. Well, you know what?

Graham 21:34

Like my boy Herm Edwards says, you play to win the game.

Scott 21:39

And I mean, what else can you say? Uh I I mean, that's one of the I you gotta put it in top five matchups between the two. I mean, there's been some insane games between the two of 'em. That's one of top five. And the cool thing was homeboy Trimble that made it. He's the only player. He's a senior. The dude that dished it as a freshman. I'm pretty sure Trimble was the only person that had ever played against Duke before.

Graham 22:16

Yeah.

Scott 22:17

Which is wild. It's crazy to think about that. I mean, yeah, eight to ten miles. I mean, you're talking about two programs. Carolina has six national championships, Duke has five. Okay. Tomato tomato. Right there. Between the two teams, dude, they have 37 Final Four appearances.

Graham 22:42

Yeah. I do. They are even Steven. I think they were tied going into that matchup at 60, 60 or 60.

Scott 22:51

Or the last X amount of years.

Graham 22:53

Yeah.

Scott 22:54

I mean, it's Carolina's got the overall record by a million, but that was before Duke became Duke. Yeah. I mean, it was wild.

Graham 23:03

So pre-Sheshevsky.

Scott 23:05

Yeah. But like I told Andrew, Ava's boyfriend, I'm like, I don't have a good feeling about this. I'm like, but remember, dude, as a Tar Hill fan, you always have the last laugh. Why? Because we beat Shashewski in the Final Four.

Graham 23:21

Oh my god.

Scott 23:24

And we can hold on to that forever.

Graham 23:26

Yeah. Insert meme of beating a dead horse. Jesus Christ. I look. What happened happened. It is what it is. Dude, you guys went out, you finished the game on a 9-0 run. Duke didn't score a point with pretty much almost three minutes left. I mean, Boozer had the ball in his hand, made a great play. I was shocked. That that missed. I mean, dude, look, as the saying goes, it's all how the cookie crumbles. It's all how the ball bounces. And they just didn't get. I mean, it's not like it's not like the Tarios are like, oh, you know, we just played amazing and we came back into this. It's like, dude, if you miss shots, you miss shots. Like, what it is.

Scott 24:10

It's not like they were throwing up and remember what I said at the beginning of the game, Carolina couldn't hit the ocean from the beach. Kind of like what you guys did in the second half. So something crazy I saw this morning or yesterday when you were preparing for the Super Bowl. Uh dude, the last time Carolinas beat Kentucky, Kansas, and Duke in the same season. You know whose rookie or freshman year it was at Carolina? That guy. 81, 82.

Graham 24:46

Who?

Scott 24:46

And by that guy, we mean the goat.

Graham 24:51

LeBron didn't play for Carolina.

Scott 24:55

Dude, just the fact that you're saying LeBron over Jordan just shows me how stupid your sports wisdom is. And by that, everybody, we're saying Jordan when Jordan won the national championship as a freshman. And not saying we're gonna win the national championship. I'm just saying it's crazy to beat those three teams in the same season since 81-82. That's wild.

Graham 25:30

I got another one for you. A blind scroll finds a nut every once in a while. You know what I mean? Like it is what it like they stole their soul at the end of the game. I mean, they hit they ended the game with three three-pointers. Uh it's just like I knew they were gonna win before uh like when Booster had the ball and they missed that. I knew they were scoring. I I just like it when he kicked it out to them. I'm like, that's being made. It's just like you knew it was gonna happen. I I I just felt it, and I'm just like, they were ahead the entire game, and then this is gonna happen, and then I know I'm gonna hear it from you, and then of course, you'd be in the great friend that you are, the picture of all pictures, because you're such a nice guy. Thanks a lot, fam.

Scott 26:14

What picture was that, Graham?

Graham 26:17

Oh yeah, where you have your entire family and then your daughter photobombs me flipping me off, too. Dude, how good was that photo bomb? Yeah, yeah. So nice. So nice to see how classy the Wasco house was.

Scott 26:31

Hey, remember, we did the same picture two years ago.

Graham 26:37

Yeah.

Scott 26:37

It was just my dad and Kellen. It was classic. The best picture, though, some people may have seen it before I took it down because you went MIA. Dude. The milk carton. First of all, and the picture of all pictures, anybody that listened last week, remember Graham called Joel Damon Johnny Damon. Dude, I chat GPT a Carolina jersey on Joel Damon and Synatogram. Is that anything? On who? On Johnny Damon. Yeah, okay.

Graham 27:17

I said the wrong name once, all right? Jesus Luizus. It's not like you ever mess up.

Scott 27:25

Oh no, I do, but just not on air. Um bullshit. And folks, I wish you could have heard Saturday night after the Duke game when Graham finally came out of his groundhog hole. Called the Duke Coach Fryer.

Graham 27:39

I did not you lying sack. Friar. I did not say that. That is not true. That is not true. You hear what you want to hear just so you can, you know, make some bullshit up. I know what I said. I know what I said.

Rivalry History And Fan Trolling

Scott 27:55

Anyhow, I'm sending all this shit to Graham, and Kristen's like, God, you're beating him up with this stuff. And I'm like, Kristen, Graham's not a real fan from Duke. I would never do this if it when the Chargers beat the Steelers, and he would never do this if the Steelers beat the Chargers. He wouldn't even do it if Duke beat Carolina, because he knows I've been a fan of Carolina forever, and he's calls the Coach Fryer. And she's like, she's like, okay, I get it. I get it. But anyhow, uh, it was insane. Couldn't believe it happened. The one thing I really couldn't believe it happened, and Coach Fryerk being a little bitch after the game, talking about us rushing the court.

Graham 28:48

Oh, I felt for the players' safety.

Scott 28:51

Oh, bro. Remember a couple years ago when we beat you guys at the high school gym, they call Cameron Indoor Stadium, and your fans were throwing water bottles and shit at my players? Oh, we forgot about that shit, Coach Fryer, didn't we? Yeah, we did. Anyhow, enough about that. And before we move on to the Super Bowl, I have to do a public apology. Okay. I have to. My boy Steve Dowdy, I've talked about him before, owns Bob's gun shop here in town. Huge Duke. Sorry, shit. It's my bad Dowdy. Not a huge Duke fan. Huge Carolina fan. Actually brought me a hat back from the Final Four. You've seen it. He texted me yesterday, right before the Super Bowl started, and he goes, I can't believe I didn't hear from you last night. And I'm like, oh my gosh. I can't believe I didn't text Dowdy after the dope. And I literally said to him, I apologize, but I got a couple pictures that'll make up for it. And I sent him every one of you. So Dowdy, I'll send you this clip. I apologize. It won't ever happen again. My bad. But a lot of people saw you on that milk carton, bro. Some members at the club, dude, dying. I mean, it is what it is.

Graham 30:19

Yeah.

Scott 30:20

You know I love you. It's all in fun. But the milk carton thing, it just came out of me remembering what y'all did to your boy Ted. And I was like, I gotta do it. And did it. You know. On a side note, let's jump into the Super Bowl, and I have a suggestion for DraftKings. DraftKings. After 10 p.m., you need to install a breathalyzer on the betting app. She. I say that now, and I was saying that in the third quarter yesterday of the game, but in the fourth quarter, your boy was like, let's go, let's go, let's go. So anyhow, jumping into the game, you said you went to Circa, got to hang out with a bunch of famous people, got hammered, and don't remember the fourth quarter.

Graham 31:17

I didn't say that. No, no, no. You you were putting words in my mouth. I didn't say that. I said I had a great time. I said I enjoyed some beverages. And what I said was during the game, especially in the second half, there were times where I was enjoying the moment and having conversations with people, and like you d I mean, like it's tough when you're at an event. It is to pay attention to the entire game and not pay attention to the people around you. I mean, look, the key plays, the interception, the strip sack, uh pick six, or not pick six, but defensive touchdown. Like, I mean, I it was a pick six. Oh, I thought it was.

Scott 32:02

Yeah, it was a pick six. Oh. Um from a player of the Targers drafted in the second round in 2018, Nuwosu from USC. But always loved him, but whatever. Keep going.

Graham 32:16

You know, it's just like I mean, there's been times where I've been at you know, individual house parties where we've had 10, 15 people, sometimes 20 people, and you just get caught up in the moment. Like if I was just watching at the house, you know, with my pops or whatever, I'd have been glued to the TV type of situation. You know, I was just uh enjoying the moment. Are are there parts of it, you know, especially when I was talking to you earlier, that I was just like, yeah, I don't remember that.

Court-Storming Debate And Apology

Scott 32:44

Well, I I totally understand exactly what you're saying. And you've given me shit about this forever. That's the same reason if my Chargers ever make it to the Super Bowl, I ain't going nowhere. I would turn down a ticket.

Graham 33:03

Yeah, but that's the ticket is different. When you're in the stands, you're there witnessing it. That's a completely scenario. That I mean, you can't. Yeah, but I was sweet there, but if you have an actual ticket, I want to hear what is being said. Trust me, you didn't want to hear Collinsworth. He was miserable to listen to last night. Oh my god.

Scott 33:25

Dude, it was I forgot what was said. It was so funny. Tarika said something in the very next play.

Graham 33:34

I know exactly what happened.

Scott 33:36

And Collinsworth was like, way to jinx that one. It was hilarious.

Graham 33:41

Yeah, Collinsworth was basically praising, he was like, Oh, Drake May's starting to get a hold, it's starting to really read this defense pretty good.

Scott 33:47

No, it wasn't that.

Graham 33:48

It was funny. Oh well. Well, there was that scenario that happened too.

Scott 33:51

So yeah. But anyhow, I thought it was pretty funny. You're gonna be like, oh god, here we go. Bucky actually sent it to me. He goes, Isn't it funny? The Super Bowl still goes back to that rivalry of Michigan and Ohio State. And I'm like, Frabel, Ohio State, McDonald, Michigan. And I was like, love it. And then the first touchdown score of the game, where'd he play it in college?

Graham 34:24

You know. It's great. Anyway, to be a Michigan Wolverine. It's great.

Scott 34:39

To be anyhow, just had to throw that out there. Uh even though the the first half was kinda exactly what you're doing, it was exactly what we expected, right? Defense. Uh defense and defense.

Graham 34:57

Yeah.

Scott 34:58

And the Patriots, what was the score at halftime? 12 and nothing? Or nine and nothing. Yeah. I think it was 12.

Announcer 35:08

12.

Graham 35:09

Yeah. They were one play away from being a game.

Scott 35:16

As good as the Patriots D played. Can we please give a shout out to what's our corner's name? Gonzalez? Yeah. Dude.

Super Bowl Atmosphere And In-Game Swings

Graham 35:28

I mean that breakup that he had with Rashid. Oh. Shaheed, that over the top one that he he swatted that. Oh, dude, when Darnold threw that, I was like, oh, six. Here you go. And then he was just like, stride for stride.

Scott 35:46

My guy just can we say he's the most underrated corner in the league? Yeah.

Graham 35:57

He's gonna get we have to.

Scott 36:02

I I just mmm, dude. My guy just battled. Uh it was nine to nothing at halftime. So, all right, whatever. Nine, twelve, whatever. Uh I don't know, dude. It was insane. Walker was running well. I mean, my guy wins the MVP, don't even score a touchdown. How good is that?

Graham 36:31

He was their offense. Really?

Scott 36:34

Yeah. Cup had some catches, you know, and Jigberg, and Jigba goes down with a fake concussion that Vegas called in because all the prop bets and everything, they were gonna get their asses handed to them. Well, guess what? Instead of that, they cha-ching, cha-ching, cha-ching. Uh, that's another story. Uh, but dude, I I don't even know. Uh and then they score, the Patriots score. I'm like, they get the ball back and they're driving. I'm like, oh man, if they can score right here, it's about to be a game. As soon as I said that, the worst pass. The worst pass of May season happened. You know, fun fact, without looking at your phone. Uh, and I had to double check this. Christian Gonzalez, the cornerback, I'm just crazing. Do you remember where he played in college? I have no idea. Uh, Oregon. Okay. Yeah. But dude, I heard it today and Herm Edwards said it. Couldn't agree more. He was like, the Seahawks looked like they had 13 people on the field.

Graham 37:54

Yeah, I, you know, some of the commentary I was listening to today online, you know, they're basically saying that it almost felt like for the Patriots, that I mean, not that they were waving the white flag, but the fact that they couldn't get anything done. It was just like they didn't make really good second half adjustments. I mean, the fact that Drake May threw apparently, which was what they said a cur not a career, but a record in the Super Bowl for most moves thrown in a quarter for what I think was like 234 or something or 24, whatever it is. Dude, the Patriots had 51 yards of offense at halftime. Yeah. There was no part in watching that game that I thought the Patriots had any chance. I did.

Scott 38:40

If he wouldn't have thrown that right, I did before that pick.

Graham 38:44

But even still, even if they would have scored there, they would have closed the gap. Or the the gap would have been significantly closer. But I still feel like the Seahawks would have just done what they needed to do. Continue running the ball, continue throwing it to Varner, continue throwing it. I mean, I I just there were like I said, there was nothing about that game that I was just like, they have a chance. And like I was telling you before earlier today, what we talked about last week on the episode, on paper, Seattle's the team, right? The opening line started at three and a half and went to four and a half. I told you I'm ult I'm alternate spreading it to six and a half. Well, at first I said seven and a half, and you're like, hey, don't be stupid. Drop it down to six and a half just in case it's a touchdown. I'm just like, I I one plus one equals two. The Patriots schedule was laughable. They played nine teams that lost nine of their wins were against teams that didn't their coach got fired. Their division, laughable. I mean, their best win was at Buffalo. Literally was their best win.

Scott 39:55

Something that I questioned going into the game. You know, we all know Seattle's offense is pretty good, but their defense is ridiculous. I question if Seattle scored 20 points, this shit's a lock. Patriots can't score 20 points against him. That was my, I mean, that was the thing.

Graham 40:16

They barely beat the Texans, and the Texans gave them six turnovers. They played the Broncos in which they barely beat the Broncos with a backup quarterback that hasn't started in two and a half years.

Scott 40:32

In a blizzard.

Graham 40:33

Granted, in a blizzard, but still, if there was no blizzard, wouldn't it have been that much? I mean, the first half wasn't a blizzard. They weren't, they didn't do much in the first half. I I mean, look. What happened happened. You can only play the team that's in front of you. How they got there, they got there. I I mean, I saw memes online where it's just like, what was the bigger fraud team to get to the Super Bowl or a fraud game, and then they bring up last year when Kansas City just got boat raced. And it's just like, I don't know. As a fan, if I was at home watching it, I I mean, for me, being at Cerca, the whole environment, I had a great time, right?

Scott 41:13

Yeah, that was cool.

Defensive Chess Match And Key Plays

Graham 41:14

If I was just at home chilling, if I had my buddy come over who's a Seattle fan, I was watching it with my dad, like, yeah, we'd be happy because Seattle was winning and then they won, and like, yeah, it was cool. But like, there was no part of that game where I mean, look, being a Steeler fan, I would always say some of my favorite games were watching the Steelers, Ravens, and the defense. You know, I I enjoyed those games where it was like six to you know, you know, six to three or seven to ten type games where it's just defense going back and forth. But like those games, there was still more offense. How many times were there three and outs? How many times were it's just like, all right, we'll get a first down and then we'll punt. I mean, dude, the pay the Patriots punter, that dude did work.

Scott 42:00

Did you see his the meme? I forget his name. It's like Patriots Punter after the Super Bowl, and his his ankle was like black and blue, all bruised up.

Graham 42:10

I was dying. I mean, it it's just like you know, then people are gonna come out, you know, Patriots fans are gonna come out, like almost like, oh, you know, let's see if you know Drake May had any injuries that were undisclosed just because of you know what his passing percentage record was during the regular season compared to the playoffs. And it's just like, dude, the left side of their line got destroyed. Yep. They're playing hurt against that defense.

Scott 42:37

And they only rushed four. Same exact thing the Eagles did against the Chiefs.

Graham 42:42

Seattle only needs to rush four. That's what they were doing to the Rams.

Scott 42:49

Dude, if the Rams would have played in the Super Bowl, sh can we talk about how good the Rams were this year? Yeah. Well, as we're talking about the game last night, like you said, it was a snooze fest. The only Super Bowl I can literally think back to and was like, God, this sucks too, is when the Patriots beat the Rams in the Super Bowl.

Graham 43:16

Yeah.

Scott 43:18

13-3.

Graham 43:21

I I mean, I wasn't I didn't think the Harbaugh Bowl was that exciting.

Scott 43:28

I mean Dude, the Niners were laying the wood to the Ravens, and then the power goes out, and then the Ravens came back. Yeah, I mean the old school, you probably don't even remember this. Uh who was it? The Ravens' first Super Bowl win against the Giants.

Graham 43:44

2000.

Scott 43:46

Ugh. That was a snooze fest.

Graham 43:49

Yeah. Well, I mean, when you keep a team under in single digit points, like what do you expect?

Scott 43:57

But I don't know. There was some crazy. Shit. And like I talked about earlier, dude, Walker wins the MVP. Right. First runner back since 1998 to win the MVP. And that was my boy TD.

Graham 44:13

You know what his number was to win it? To win the MVP before the game started? It was like plus it was like 1400. I mean, it was it was up there.

Scott 44:24

Jerry last night during the game, where is it? He sends me a bet, dang it, uh, one of his boys bet a dollar fifty on Myers to win the MVP. And at one point, you're like, it could be.

Graham 44:45

With all those field goals, if Walker, it was a dollar fifty to win three grand.

Scott 44:52

If Walker laid one on the ground, Myers is your MVP.

Graham 44:57

Yeah, but that I mean, right? The amount of game-winning kicks that Vinateri's had. I mean, how come he's not gotten any nods? I agree. Hey, by the way, second kicker to make the Hall of Fame. Yeah. Where's that one thing, dude? I just, you know, while you're looking, I'll just say the one thing that pissed me off. I don't want to say pissed me off. It was just unfortunate. So we're at Stadium Swim, amazing environment, had a great time. So during the game, obviously the audio, of course, but during the commercials, they would cut over to a DJ, to the DJ that they have there, and he's playing music. So I'm seeing the commercials and can't hear a damn thing. I was so pissed. Because, dude, when it comes to the Super Bowl, there's three things. Yeah. The game itself, the commercials, and then the halftime show. The fact that I couldn't hear the commercials, I mean, the only ones that I really remember, and I want to, I mean, I'm gonna go back online. I mean, I mean, look, nowadays they show the commercials early. They've played them on TV early, let alone put them online. I noticed new ones that I haven't seen at all. And the best one that I saw, I think was the Duncan ones. The Duncan where they brought all the old uh characters back. Like they had um the people from Friends, they had the people from That was good. That was pretty good. I've watched and I'm like, dude, that looks hilarious. Still have no idea what was said, but I was just like, damn, yeah, go back and check out these.

Patriots Offense Stalls And Seahawks Control

Scott 46:33

I think it was T-Mobile. Yeah, the Backstreet Boys. The Backstreet Boys, that was pretty sick. Yeah, I mean, it was pretty good. Kristen was loving it, and they did like in one whole pause of the game, they like did a commercial, went to another one, and then back to them, which was pretty dope. Uh Budweiser with the Clydesdales coming back was pretty good. Classic. I mean, how did he not? Right. Yeah. But, you know, like you said, I mean, after that one pick, it was pretty much game over. But fourth quarter, your boy's sitting here, DraftKings has a promo. You know, we've never talked about it. King of the end zone, or whatever it's called, and your boy bet on Seattle D to have the longest touchdown in the game. And Nowsu grabs that interception, and I'm like, oh my god, there's nobody in front of you. I'm like, stand up, Kristen's half asleep, it's in the fourth quarter, the game's over. And I'm like, losing. I'm like, I'm gonna win, I'm gonna win, I'm gonna win. And Marrows texts me and Billy in a thread, and he goes, Well, I didn't need that. And I screenshot mine, and I'm like, Well, I did. And he's like, Oh shit, why? And then Billy's like, I did too. I'm like, let's go. And I'm like, I don't want to jinx it, I don't want to jinx it. And then Walker breaks off that touchdown that gets called back for the holding, and I'm like, Oh, thank you, baby Jesus. So 21,000 people, dude, it had the Seahawks D to score a touchdown. So 21,000 people, including myself and Billy, got to split four million dollars in free bets.

Announcer 48:23

Let's go.

Scott 48:24

Amen at it. But your boy made some cash last night. I actually withdrew some. Let's go for the second time this week. Uh but let's go. And but now it's like I gotta use all these free bets, dude, in 30 days and there's no football. Hockey, it's tough. It's like shit. Do I just bet 100 on Scheffler to come in the top 20 at minus 900? No. But I don't know, man. It was a fun night. You know, it is what it is. Everything came out for next year, and I don't know. I saw something today, and I was like, imagine in August, someone telling you Indiana's gonna win the national championship, and Sam Darnold is gonna win the Super Bowl. Oh, and then TP hit me last night with, oh my god, the Jets actually drafted a Super Bowl-winning quarterback.

Graham 49:31

Hey Vikings, maybe you should offer it a couple more dollars. I I hey stories like that, it doesn't get any better. I mean, it really doesn't. Kudos to him. I mean, look. Dude, he's on his fifth team. In eight years. You don't get taken three overall for sucking. You're not the first quarterback off the board because you suck. I it's you know, like I said, it's only very specific situations that you get drafted in the top three specifically. We'll even push it back to the top ten. But if you're picking in the top three, top five, we brought it up last time. Um recently bias, but unless you're Jaden Daniels, or unless you're uh your favorite, your favorite boy from Ohio State on Houston, Stroud, they balled out rookie years. Balled out, but besides that, there's a learning curve, and it's just, you know, I mean, it's all about the pla the pieces you have around you, the teammates, the coaching, everything. And it's just like it is what it is. I look, we love Fernandez, we love him.

Commercials, Halftime Notes, And Promos

Scott 50:51

Dude's gonna get something I heard today that I have to bring up, and I'd never heard it until today on the McAfee show. He's doing his classic Monday interview with the GOAT of all NFL reporting. Yeah, a story he told McDonald, the coach for the Seahawks. Okay, he was the D coordinator for the Ravens, yeah. And his wife is from the Baltimore, DC area, all their family, he was already in Baltimore, you know, Baltimore and DC are 15, 20 miles away, right, and interviewed with Washington and then went to Seattle to interview. Was his last interview, and Washington called to keep offering him the head coaching job, and he didn't. And he said the reason was the GM for Seattle. The guy is one of the best.

Graham 52:05

Snyder.

Scott 52:07

The only GM we talked about last week. To win two Super Bowls now with different head coaches, and not one player from either team. Yeah, they did it, they did everything. I mean, sorry, Dan Quinn. You were second best, but I mean, you know what I mean? I'd never heard that story. I thought it was sick and amazing. But, you know, moving on. Couldn't believe Kubiak. We talked about it earlier in the locker room. Kubiak's like, yeah, I'm gonna be the Raiders' next head coach. I'm gonna celebrate tonight. Tomorrow starts it. I'm like, wow. Insane.

Graham 53:00

Well, I mean, look, you're the last one signed. You I mean, you got draft to think about, you got so much this, that, and the other. It's I mean, it doesn't surprise me, but hey, congratulations to him, the Seahawks. It's a great story all around, Darnold. I, you know, I'm happy for our friends, Jeff. Good for you. But good old Jeffrey. I just, you know, uh, I saw it coming. I it's just it is what it is. I'm just hey, at this point, it sucks. There's there's no more ball, but there's just so much still more to talk about. Like we said, speculation of free agency, speculation of the draft process, what's gonna happen, you know, who's getting cut, who's not getting cut. Uh, you know, there's just so much still to happen.

Scott 53:50

And uh, you know, all the betting lines came out for next season, which I love. Yeah. You know, to look at. Dude, I guess who's favored to win the AFC West.

Graham 54:02

Denver? Mm-mm. Mm-mm. Well, I can't. I mean, obviously it's gonna be the Chargers, but I can't say I wasn't gonna say 100 million calves, Alt Slater comeback, McDaniel, 111 games with the worst line in the league. Hey, here's an idea, Chargers. Don't get key players hurt next year, and maybe you have a chance.

Scott 54:32

Yeah, because we have any saying in that.

Graham 54:36

Yeah, I know, but I'm just saying, like it's just look, the pieces are there, or should I say the foundation is there, you got a lot of money to spend, you'll make the right choices for the most part, and um, I mean, look, the uh yeah, the only unfortunate choice of your last season was your right guard.

Scott 55:01

Hey, but that's not an unfortunate unfortunate choice if alt's there at right tackle.

Graham 55:08

Fair, fair, fair.

Scott 55:10

That's not a and if Bozeman's not the worst center in the history of the NFL.

Graham 55:16

Um yeah, but anyhow, hey, it's the day after.

Scott 55:24

And we got Olympics, we got NCAA basketball, we got hockey, we got the NBA, and we got baseball spring training. You know, who? Oh no what that's another five dollars of transaction fees you have to pay.

Big Payouts, Prop Bets, And Free Bets Strategy

Graham 55:43

Bro, Dodgers are gonna win. It doesn't matter. Next year's gonna be a lockout. Come back to us when they figure it out. Like Dodgers ain't winning. Okay. Um Dodgers aren't winning. Yeah, unless some yeah, I mean, if injuries happen, but if injuries don't happen, what's that song? Who sings it? Sign Seal Delivered, I'm yours.

Scott 56:06

Dude, how about the Seahawks and the Rams are both plus 950 to win the Super Bowl next year?

Graham 56:13

Well, hey, they got their general coming back, MVP, baby.

Scott 56:17

Yeah. And this ain't happening. Uh yeah. And by this you mean uh Patriots plus 1300.

Graham 56:32

I'm taking under Patriots wins next year.

Scott 56:37

I don't disagree. Under from from the guy that took their over and won that in week 10. Yeah. I mean, Steelers, what are my what are the Steelers? Steelers are plus 6,000.

Graham 56:55

Dude, we don't know who's slinging the rock.

Scott 56:58

Oh. Aaron Rodgers is playing, dude.

Graham 57:01

I hope not. I I just I'm let look. He's playing, dude.

Scott 57:06

He's playing.

Graham 57:08

Who are we gonna bring in at wide receiver that he's gonna have confidence in? He only throws to people that he trusts. That's what I'm saying. Like you ain't wrong, but you can't run. I I just it's it's not worth it. Like, I I know you know Art Rooney is just like, hey, no, you know, I always want to be competitive, but it's just like, dude, if you can't bring in a quarterback, if we can't, and I ugh I'm I almost want to slap myself for saying this, but I had no faith in Mac Jones coming out of Alabama. None. But what had happened was here we are. Unless that or Malik Willis is coming, I have no faith Rogers is gonna take us to the promised land. And by the promised land, I'm just asking for one win. Like another dead horse that we've beaten too many times. It does you can't rebuild if you're always trying to hang on with these old players. I mean, look, I'm at this point right now. We got Pittsburgh has to do something drastic, and I mean real drastic. Kirk Cousins? No. No, when I that's not real drastic. Kirk Cousins could be an A. I would I'd rather throw out Kirk Cousins than Aaron Rodgers. Dead ass is the kid saying, he's going back to Minnesota. But no, the uh the big news that I'm saying, and I hate to say this, we just got too many young guys that are good. Strike while the iron's hot, trade TJ, get what you can. I said no last year.

Scott 59:00

He's gonna you're gonna have to eat a shit ton of that cap.

Graham 59:04

Okay. They got the money. I'm not worried about it. Pay him. I I mean, look, what he's done for the organization, I get it. But dude, when you have Herbig, when you still have High Smith, when you have all the other guys, it's like, dude, they're playing her Herbig would be a starter on any team in the league right now, but because of having Watt and High Smith and the other guys, like, he's playing half the snaps. And he's a starter. Yeah. I think Herbert had like 10 sacks. Like, how can you have a guy that's had 10 sacks not be a full-time starter? Can you explain that to me? Get younger.

Scott 59:49

Because you got you got a hall of famer sitting in front of you.

Graham 59:52

Yeah, I yeah, I mean, but here's the thing: he was a Hall of Famer, he just hasn't affected games the way he used to do it. And look, he's been underpaid. I wouldn't say underpaid, but it's just like every time he gets paid, you're paying him for what he's done, not what he's going to do.

Scott 1:00:11

Yeah. I agree.

Graham 1:00:13

It is what it is.

Scott 1:00:15

So before we end the show, Scott had to throw a little Oh, is this the pop quiz I've been hearing about forever?

Graham 1:00:22

Yeah, yeah. This is you know, Scott threw something out there.

Darnold’s Redemption And Roster Context

Scott 1:00:25

Pause for a second so I can go make a cocktail. Yeah, we can pause. All right. All right, Graham. You've been talking about this pop quiz. You texted me the other day, and you're like, I just hope you haven't seen this. There was a couple things I saw, and I'm like, man, I wonder if Graham's gonna if this is it.

Graham 1:00:45

I swear to God.

Scott 1:00:46

I actually thought a few minutes ago you were gonna totally forget about this whole thing.

Graham 1:00:50

Oh no, I've been waiting. I've been waiting. Okay. I've been waiting. I just look, it's Super Bowl themed, so it's like this is pretty much the only time to get it going, except you know, last week.

Scott 1:01:02

Just so you know, um, phone's over here. You don't have to tell me a thousand times. I'll show you my hands. You know, so Super Bowl themed. Are we let me guess? Let me guess. Uh are we talking about uh I don't know. I don't know. I don't have a clue. I've been trying to think, but all right.

Graham 1:01:27

There are four teams that are undefeated in the Super Bowl.

Scott 1:01:31

Who are the four teams? Undefeated. Undefeated.

Graham 1:01:35

Meaning they've gone to the Super Bowl and they've never lost.

Scott 1:01:41

We can't count that as teams that have never been in the Super Bowl, right?

Graham 1:01:46

Obviously. The caveat is you have to make it.

Scott 1:01:52

I was like, is this a trick question here? Um let's see. I'm not I'm not looking.

Graham 1:02:01

I uh I and there's a couple that I think are obvious. Like when I first saw this, I guess two right away. The other ones came to me pretty quickly.

Scott 1:02:12

Have the Cowboys ever lost? Yeah, the Cowboys? They have lost. Okay. Um the Packers. Nope. The Packers haven't lost.

Announcer 1:02:27

No, they have lost.

Scott 1:02:29

Oh. Number one GZ. That's right. Number one GZ Ravens.

Graham 1:02:35

Yep.

Scott 1:02:37

Uh Tampa.

Graham 1:02:39

Yep.

Scott 1:02:40

Two. Wow. Who's won the Super Bowl? Oh, we know it ain't the Buffalo Bills, because then they lose four in a row. Sorry, Scott. Norwood, wide right. Um obviously. Yeah. Um the diners, the Niners lost to the Ravens. Seattle lost to the Patriots. Thanks, Pete Carroll, Marshawn Lynch. Oh. Cardinals lost to the Steelers. Oh. Oh no, the Colts lost to the Saints. Saints.

Graham 1:03:23

Saints are number three. Yes, they are. Who's number four? Bears lost to the Colts.

Scott 1:03:39

Vikings got boat raced by you guys when they only put up like twelve yards of offense.

Graham 1:03:46

Um shit. Carolina lost. Texans have never been. Titans lost to the Patriots. Chiefs have been boat raced. Cleveland's never been. You guys have lost.

Scott 1:04:12

Right? You lost to the Packers. Um Bengals, no.

Announcer 1:04:19

And the Cowboys.

Scott 1:04:22

Yeah. Who's the fourth? I get the god dang Saints. But I can't get the fourth? Don't tell me. I don't know. I'm not gonna no clues.

Graham 1:04:36

Oh, oh, let's go.

Scott 1:04:39

Clues suck.

Graham 1:04:41

Um Jets? Yeah. It's the Jets. Is it the Jets?

Scott 1:04:57

It is.

Graham 1:04:58

It is?

Scott 1:04:59

It is.

Graham 1:04:59

You sure? I think positive.

Scott 1:05:02

Yep.

Graham 1:05:02

You sure?

Scott 1:05:03

Because I can it's right.

Offseason Odds And Chargers, Rams, Patriots Futures

Graham 1:05:06

Yes, Jets, because they only won, they only went once, right? The Joan Amit.

Scott 1:05:12

Yeah, but like I said, they drafted another Super Bowl winning quarterback. Oh Sam Darnold. Pop quiz D's, Graham. I mean, come on.

Graham 1:05:22

Well, you didn't have to go back year by year, all right? And not knowing who was playing. So don't even give me that off. I have to look at college. I have dude, your question was so much harder. How was it to win the Super Bowl? Hey, I knew it. Not born. Bonus question. Out of all of the starting quarterbacks to ever play in the Super Bowl, what are the top three states that the starting quarterbacks played high school football in? It's gonna be I think two and three are surprising. California. Is number one? Yeah. With thirteen. Um second place is nine and third place is seven. And then the next one after that I think is like five. Five or four.

Scott 1:06:15

Florida?

Graham 1:06:16

Nope. I don't even think Florida had one Alabama. Nope. Pennsylvania. Number two with nine.

Scott 1:06:29

That's the only reason you're asking this question. I know.

Graham 1:06:32

Shut the front door. You're just guessing because you know I was gonna say that.

Scott 1:06:38

That should have been my first guess. I mean, that's the only reason this quiz is even out there. Um, who's number three?

Graham 1:06:47

Take a wild guess.

Scott 1:06:50

Shit, I don't know. I'm just gonna throw a dart at the wall.

Announcer 1:06:56

Um yeah, there was zero in Florida. Two in Alabama, Michigan.

Graham 1:07:05

One from Michigan.

Scott 1:07:08

So who's three?

Graham 1:07:11

Seven of them from Louisiana, and four of them came from brothers. The Mannings from Louisiana. Oh, I said the state and then the thing. I said this I said the answer. I'm like Louise.

Scott 1:07:24

That's fine. Whatever. The Mannings, okay. Hey, that's a good one. I like that. I like that. Anyhow, that's how bored we are now that the NFL's over.

Graham 1:07:36

Yeah, random trivia effects.

Scott 1:07:39

Anyhow, uh, I'm so stoked I got your pop quiz, especially with the god dang Saints. Uh anyhow, Graham, it's always fun. Uh, let's go. And hopefully you prepare for the Super Bowl harder next year than you did this year.

Graham 1:07:59

Oh, shut the front door. Hey, I'm about to prepare real hard for March Madness. Boy, got the invite to come back, so let's go, baby.

Scott 1:08:08

So, in other words, he will not remember anything in the end. So, with that note, Graham, get us out of here. I saw my girl Melissa Stark for the last time this year. Super Bowl next year, SoFi. Let's go.

Graham 1:08:27

Yeah. Your girl won't be there for that either, because it'll be on CBS, probably. Or will it be on because they rotate?

Scott 1:08:34

I don't know.

Graham 1:08:35

Yeah.

Scott 1:08:36

Could be Fox, I don't know. But anyhow, get us out of here, Graham. Love ya. Another fun football season. Golly day, it's over.

Graham 1:08:48

RIP, NFL. We miss you. We love you. Until next season. Scott, it's always a pleasure doing the podcast with you. And as the best homie always says, boo-bye. Good night, friends. Good night, NFL. I'm sad, but happy. The season's over.

Scott 1:09:09

Everybody's oh no. All the dreams are alive, unless you're a Steelers fan. I love you all. Have a great night.

Graham 1:09:19

Bubba.
