00:00joining us now pop star uh television star celtic stan donnie walbert donnie good morning

00:09guys i'm so sorry listen i call him jermaine let's just get that out of the way because we're

00:18we're very very close friends nope i mean very close there are some that are saying that wiggy

00:24is being fraudulent that uh that you know fraud he's trying to get trying to get some street cred

00:32by saying how tight you guys are no fraud no fraud it's you know filming boston blue is a very

00:39demanding job and uh they don't even give me a break for boston radio like guys come on i gotta

00:44get on the radio are you literally on the set right now for boston blue yeah yeah except i'm on the part

00:52of the set that's in toronto we filmed some in boston but we film a lot of toronto so it's a

00:57kind of a non-stop experience he's here that's all that matters that's the only thing that is it he

01:03is here that's all that matters and he's a great guy so let's be honest i mean he's a great guy and

01:09he's willing to do this he's willing to beat the geek because i mean last week donnie our geek that

01:13our expert in here we call him the geek but he lost to a 12 year old so it shouldn't be hot

01:18yeah yeah well you know i think i i don't know if i could beat the geek or not i don't know if a

01:2612 year old would beat me but it's a very unpredictable season but i will say there's

01:31one team that's been very predictable and it's it's ours so there you go it really is what a

01:36turnaround yeah awesome the slander the slander is crazy guys you know the slander is still out

01:42down everyone just hates the patriots it's an amazing thing you know everybody keeps saying

01:47this thing about the schedule the schedule the schedule you can only play who's on the schedule

01:52first of all yeah they've beaten everybody on the schedule that they should have with in truth the

01:58ragers kind of manhandle us opening game i don't think they could have won that game probably but they

02:04certainly should have beat the steelers two fumbles in the in the end zone to know but what about all the

02:09great teams that everyone's saying are so great that keep losing to the horrible teams that we beat

02:13what is that what about the rams we're the number one team everyone's darling pick and they got beat

02:19by the panthers who we beat now i know styles make fights and all that stuff and and every given

02:25sunday anyone can win but we've done exactly what you're supposed to do taking care of business and

02:31all these other teams are not taking care of business against the same guys we're beating so

02:35what's happening yeah i mean that we've been we've been saying that here i know i've been pushing

02:40that narrative since day one that you you only play who's in front of you this is a good football

02:44team i bet on them to get to the super bowl and win the super bowl so i'm confident and you know

02:51it's it's it's it's the new england thing it's the boston thing people just hate us

02:56and they hate us because they jealous us like i said back in the day yes yes true all right well let's uh

03:02we're gonna start with pat's bills obviously sean is that okay with you yeah i think i would uh you

03:07know i don't want to guess for donnie here but i assume we're both gonna have the exact same pick

03:11here okay you're picking the patriots yeah of course i'm taking the patriots donnie i'm i'm assuming you

03:16are as well uh all right here's the thing here's what i do this is not an easy pick and i'm only gonna

03:26say this because it's a division team and it's hard to beat a division team twice in the same

03:32season you guys if you know football i know jermaine knows this i don't know if the rest of you know

03:38this but this is a this is a real thing it's hard to beat a crummy team twice in a season never mind

03:44a good one but i gotta go with the patriots because i would never pick anyone else all right

03:48all right the next game now shine i don't know if you want this is a good game green green bay at

03:56denver love this game i'm i'm all over the packers give me the i'm a cheese head on sunday give me give

04:02me the packers wow i don't really believe in denver i want to see them lose so we can make sure we have

04:13the best record in the afc but you never know you never know all right i'm gonna man this is a tough

04:26one this is a tough week you guys got me on a tough week i know all right i'm gonna go with

04:31i can't pick the same as i'm going to broncos how about that oh all right oh there we go

04:38how about this one sean lions at the rams yeah i uh i'll take matthew stafford all day i love the

04:45rams uh this is one of my favorite picks of the week donnie wow we just keep picking the same game

04:52that's okay uh no i don't want to pick opposite just to pick opposite but i can't pick the same

04:58because i don't want to we're not gonna have a tie here we're just gonna have to do something

05:01you know i think the lions are gonna win this game okay all right all right in fact i'm going

05:12backwards if i but if i could change my pick this is the one that's going to differentiate us i'm

05:17going to take the packers too okay but i'm going to take the ones on this one okay all right because

05:22i really like the packers i was just trying to pick different but i'm going with the lions on this one

05:25all right maybe one more one more now greg it's your show so i'm going to give you a couple options

05:30of good games i think we charges at kansas city ravens at cincinnati colts at seattle for

05:38i don't know which i don't think we should pick that one i think that's pretty one-sided but i

05:43just give you a couple options um you like charges at kc i think i like chargers at kansas city okay

05:50because kansas city's fighting for their playoff life shine who do you like in that game oh i my heart

05:56my body wants to take the chargers so bad i just want to see them end the chiefs uh completely but

06:03i have to take i have to take patrick mahomes justin herbert with the broken hand and stuff

06:07the offensive line injuries i just can't do it i'll take the chiefs okay donnie walberg

06:11oh man nothing disgusts me more than picking the chiefs ever but i think this is one of those games

06:21i think the championship teams are where everyone's writing them off you know they dig deep

06:28and find that one game that they're not supposed to win and they win it looks like the patch used to

06:33always do it but so even though i don't think the chiefs are on the level of the dynasty of the

06:38patriots i gotta go with the chiefs on this okay all right well we uh there will be a winner i mean

06:44that is clear so whether it will be shyme or it will be you we will we will know on monday all right

06:50friend of the show donnie rob ninkovich said hey if you can get him on boston blue he's a big fan

06:57and you can rough him up and you can love me yes and he could come on yeah you could beat him up on

07:04the show like maybe he's a criminal or something you're chasing him down he stole a lady's purse

07:09or something i don't know but you could beat him up he said he would love to be on the show he wants

07:13to be on the show donnie can you get him on the show yeah i just i would have my partner beat him

07:18up though i don't think i would beat him up also let me watch her beat him as an actor can you weigh

07:25in on a debate that we had earlier what is in your opinion what is what is the best christmas film of

08:38they have probably approached your brother 10 times to do a remake of die hard and i'm glad they

08:45haven't done a die hard remake like that that's a film that should never be remade
