00:00Speaking of Thanksgiving, turkey time, so on and so forth, D'Amico Ryans jumped on the Coaches Show with John Harris and Mark Vandermeer.
00:08You know Mark is always going to try and throw out a little bit of fun with it and with it being Thanksgiving.
00:12He asked a very important question.
00:14D'Amico, if you had to invite somebody from your rival school, remember D'Amico went to Alabama, so this would be Auburn in this case, who would you invite to Thanksgiving?
00:23So you're an Alabama alum, so you have to invite one of the following Auburn alums.
00:28Oh, yeah.
00:29To your Thanksgiving table, Coach.
00:31I love this.
00:31Okay, so you have the choice of one of these four.
00:34Bo Jackson, Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, Charles Barkley, Cam Newton.
00:40You have to pick one of those four Auburn alums to sit with your Bama family.
00:44But if you pick Cam, you have to wear one of his hats.
00:47Oh, man, that would be sweet.
00:49Well, man, that's a tough one.
00:51So many great guys.
00:52I'm going to roll with Bo Jackson.
00:54I'm going to roll with Bo just because.
00:55Bo, he can sit with my family because he knows my family.
00:59We're from the same hometown.
01:00He's from Bessemer.
01:01We actually both got inducted into the Cotton Bowl Hall of Fame together earlier this year in May, and his family couldn't be there.
01:08So he said, hey, Mico, can I use your family?
01:11And he said, family, can you stand up for me?
01:14That's great.
01:15So Bo's a great guy, man.
01:17Bo's a great guy.
01:18He played football with my uncles in high school.
01:21So hometown guy, I'll go with him.
01:23How about that?
01:24First of all, what do they put in the water in Bessemer?
01:27Yeah.
01:27Good Lord.
01:29Hey, you ain't got nothing to do besides play this football, man.
01:32Y'all want to hear something funny?
01:34Yes.
01:34So you know how everybody in your family always has somebody, some type of celebrity that's like, oh, akin to this person.
01:43Yeah, yeah.
01:44Bo Jackson was that in my family.
01:46Oh, really?
01:47I had an auntie that was like, oh, yeah, we're related.
01:50And so I had no idea how or if it's true.
01:54But it was always like, oh, yeah, Bo Jackson, he part of our family.
01:59How about that?
01:59And I never understood how.
02:00I don't even know if it's true.
02:02Well, you could have stood up at his Hall of Fame induction.
02:04Yeah, don't even bother about finding out whether it's true or not.
02:07It's true to me.
02:08Say it with your chest.
02:09That's all.
02:09I mean, I can't prove it, though.
02:11Yeah.
02:12Who needs to prove it, man?
02:13It's true to me, for sure.
02:14My uncle and my auntie said it.
02:16Yeah.
02:16My great auntie said it.
02:17Yeah, no, they know.
02:18I mean, it's kind of fair, too, because I got family in Bessemer, too.
02:22There you go.
02:23Without question.
02:24I'm buying it.
02:25So, first of all, that's pretty sweet.
02:27He used D'Amico's family to stand up at the Hall of Fame induction.
02:31Secondly, I love this question.
02:33And it doesn't have to be, you know, we're not going to give you a list.
02:36Your rival school with your family, especially on Thanksgiving holiday when generally you're
02:43playing that school, whether it's Ole Miss and Mississippi State, A&M, Texas.
02:47Well, K-State, Kansas already played, right?
02:49Yes.
02:49Sunflower showdown already happened.
02:51But, you know, it's oftentimes Michigan, Ohio State, you know, all that stuff.
02:55The easy one for me is Earl Campbell.
02:58I just love that guy, and I've gotten to know him, so it would be fun to have him there.
03:01And the ones I was thinking of, not Michael Dell, of course, for obvious reasons, but
03:08probably...
03:08Why are you hating on Michael Dell when that was your fault?
03:10Because he's associated with it.
03:11That was your fault.
03:12Because he's associated with it.
03:13If you're not familiar, John Lopez could have been a millionaire or maybe a billionaire,
03:17only God knows, if he had made an investment in Dell earlier.
03:21That I was told to do.
03:23Anyway, we're not talking about that.
03:25But Owen Wilson, love that guy.
03:27He went to UT.
03:28I don't think he graduated, but he was there a long time.
03:31The other one that I was thinking about, because, you know, music and movies and all that stuff
03:35we all love, David Geffen from DreamWorks and Geffen Records.
03:40Huge.
03:40Dude, can you imagine the stories that he would have?
03:43Incredible.
03:43From all the records and movies and the old, you know, talking about Janis Joplin and all
03:48the way to the most current, you know.
03:50Yeah, so I'd say David Geffen, even though you weren't that orange and white, you can come
03:54to our Thanksgiving.
03:55It's funny, because I wanted to open this up, but it might make it easier.
03:58Like, just your rival, what rival would you invite to Thanksgiving?
04:02It could be a Yankee.
04:03You know, it could be a Cowboy.
04:05I mean, could it be a Yankee?
04:06Well, I was like...
04:07If it's your biggest rival.
04:08If we're throwing in Reggie...
04:10If we're throwing in...
04:11Sorry, I was about to say Reggie Jackson, but that's actually not where I want to go.
04:15If we're throwing in Ricky Henderson, obviously, if he was alive at this point.
04:18Yeah, yeah, yeah.
04:19That's...
04:19But I'm talking about your biggest rival.
04:21It could be college.
04:21Like, your biggest rival might be the Yankees.
04:23I mean, I think...
04:24I wonder if Mark Vandermeer would go with Peyton Manning.
04:27Peyton Manning's an easy answer, right?
04:28That would be one.
04:29Charismatic.
04:29Yeah.
04:30You could talk all sorts of football, especially as the football is on.
04:33That would be, like, incredibly interesting and fun to have.
04:37I'm trying to find the Kansas alum that I would actually want to come.
04:42Because, like, there's ones that I think are funny.
04:44Like, oh, I'm going to invite Perry Ellis to see how he played basketball for so damn long.
04:48Right?
04:48Like, things like that.
04:49But I don't know if there's actually...
04:50Who are...
04:50I don't have the list in front of me.
04:52Who are some of the more famous...
04:54I mean, I just keep thinking about, like, Mike Mangini and stuff.
04:57Oh, God.
04:58KU needs to up its game.
04:59To eat all...
05:00Well, I mean, I'm sure there are a lot of KU alums that I could go with.
05:06Oh, you know what?
05:07Here's the one.
05:07And I didn't even realize he went to Kansas.
05:09Give me Kevin Harlan.
05:11Oh, really?
05:12Yeah.
05:12We can talk football.
05:13We can talk basketball.
05:15Now, I'm sure he is working on that day.
05:17But I feel like he's good with families.
05:20Kevin Harlan gives me the distinct feeling.
05:22And he could do play-by-play on the dinner.
05:24Sure.
05:24Yeah.
05:25But Kevin Harlan...
05:25With the dagger.
05:28I feel like Kevin Harlan gives me the distinct feeling that he's real good with moms.
05:33You know that dude that's, like, real good that just talks real sweet and his borderline
05:36hitting on your moms, but not actually?
05:38Kevin Harlan looks like that.
05:40Do you think I'm right here?
05:41Yeah, I think you 100% right.
05:44What about you, Figgy?
05:45Yeah, so, as far as college, you know, I ain't go to Ohio State, but that's my squad.
05:51I would 100% have Tom Brady at my Thanksgiving dinner.
05:54Oh, hell yeah.
05:56Just to kind of see what the hell he pick up and put on his plate.
06:01Yeah, him and Nick Casario probably got a lot in common when it comes to foods.
06:05I'll have the greens, please.
06:07That's it.
06:07Yeah, just a plate.
06:08And a salad.
06:08Yeah, he's going to walk by with just a plate full of salad.
06:13Yeah.
06:13As far as high school, like, so my rival high school was Glenville, which bred a lot of
06:20NFL players and Ohio State players.
06:23I would totally have Ted Ginn Jr. at my Thanksgiving dinner.
06:26Oh, hell yeah.
06:26Oh, hell yeah.
06:27That's perfect.
06:28By the way, KU, Paul Rudd went there.
06:31They got some people, man.
06:32Scott Bakula, Nikki Glaser.
06:36Why would you say Scott Bakula like I would?
06:37She could do a roast.
06:38You think that's what I want on Thanksgiving?
06:41You think?
06:42In fact.
06:42Reggie Atatula's here.
06:43Hey, Reggie.
06:44Can I get a PSA off right quick?
06:46I know that not everybody's on social media, but if you are, a PSA that I like this time
06:50a year, don't post pictures of your food on the internet.
06:55Sorry, it ain't going to work.
06:56The internet is not full of good people.
06:59They're just going to make fun of your food.
07:01And it feels real bad if somebody.
07:03It all looks the same, man.
07:04Right.
07:05It's going to look real bad if, you know, you got someone clowning your grandma's food
07:10because you thought you was being cute.
07:11Don't do that.
07:12832, Ron the show Hughley went to Kansas.
07:15Yeah, but I don't trust him.
07:16He played too much.
07:17From the 281, y'all think Carl Malone eats alone every year?
07:20One can only hope.
07:21I can only hope that that's how it goes for that man.
07:24I despise him.
07:25From the 409, Lopez Shavai, invite Amy Adams.
07:29No, no.
07:29It's from when you what?
07:32Is there anybody in the division?
07:34I could put her there and just mock her the whole time.
07:36Put her at the kids' table.
07:37Oh, yeah.
07:38You would go the other way.
07:39You just try and make her life hell.
07:40Hey, I would love to see Hannah and Amy Adams at the same dinner table.
07:44Oh, my goodness.
07:46You know what that's?
07:47I feel like that would be all of the dramas or maybe even sitcoms where you have, like,
07:52a dysfunctional family and everybody's smiling but also throwing jabs back and forth.
07:57Oh, you're just in different corners talking about each other?
07:59Oh, yeah.
08:00Yeah, yeah.
08:01I'd pay to see that.
08:02I would not sit between them, but I would pay to see that.
08:05I would absolutely pay to see that.
08:07Let's see.
08:08The Bears are definitely our biggest rivals, so I would want to have – oh, my gosh.
08:13I lost – I lost – oh, the fridge.
08:15The fridge.
08:16Okay.
08:16Yeah.
08:17Because he would eat a lot.
08:18Yeah, she's a big Packers fan.
08:19Oh, okay.
08:19There you go.
08:20Shout-out to Mary.
08:21They said you could bring in Aqib Tlaib.
08:23He went to KU.
08:24Why?
08:26Like, if we play – if the turkey – what is it?
08:29What's the game?
08:30The turkey game, turkey bowl.
08:31Oh, yeah.
08:32I don't want no Aqib Tlaib in there.
08:33Oh, that's right.
08:34With all due respect to Aqib Tlaib because I don't want no problems.
08:37They family be a little wild with it at times.
08:39You can Google that if you need to.
08:40At times, I like wearing chains.
08:43I would not like those snatched.
08:44Yeah, just – yeah, I'm good on the Aqib Tlaib at the house.
08:47Carly Ursa Gord?
08:49Oh, yeah.
08:49Carly Ursa Gord?
08:50There's your answer.
08:51Yeah, yeah.
08:52I would love her to come to dinner.
08:55Yeah.
08:55I like the way you inflected your voice there, man.
08:58That's crazy.
08:59Matthew McConaughey?
09:01I don't want to see that stupid old brown jacket that he wears.
09:07That's the stupidest thing ever.
09:09Oh, it was my lucky jacket.
09:11You lost 35-10 wearing that jacket to Georgia on the sidelines.
09:14Doesn't matter.
09:15It's only lucky when I feel.
09:16And for some reason, I will read this on air from B. Scott.
09:20Apparently, he said he kin to Drake, which that's not going to go the way that you think,
09:24my boy, because I'm going to ask you, what's up with your family?
