00:00NFL schedule release, which is tomorrow.
00:03The official release is tomorrow.
00:06And we know that the Commanders are going to be playing overseas.
00:09They're going to be playing in London.
00:11Do we now suspect the opponent?
00:14Yes.
00:14Speculation is it is your beloved Indianapolis Colts, JP,
00:19in week four, October 4th.
00:23How has this been deduced?
00:25Oh, I don't know.
00:26Somebody just put it out there.
00:27I just know that that's being forecast to be the Commanders' opponent.
00:32That's what everyone's reporting.
00:33And I'm sure Draft could explain it.
00:35I don't care enough to know.
00:37But apparently it rules out them playing back-to-back games in London,
00:41which to me is amazing news.
00:43I didn't want back-to-back London games.
00:47I'm going to guess Commanders fans, especially those that are traveling
00:49for the Colts game, probably don't want back-to-backers.
00:53Yeah, I mean, how many guys can afford to take two weeks off?
00:55It's going to double their expense if they're planning on staying.
00:57I guess the sources are saying that the Eagles and Jags
01:00would play that second game in London.
01:02Good.
01:02Well, this source that I see is from a Twitter account called
01:07NerdingOnNFL.
01:07All right.
01:08I don't know if he has a super success rate predicting these,
01:13but he wrote on his Twitter, NFL Schedule League, Colts versus Commanders
01:20at Tottenham Stadium in London, week four, Sunday, October 4th.
01:24So you get ready.
01:25Put October 4th on your calendar.
01:27Got to get up early.
01:28You got to wake up at like 8.30.
01:31No more than that.
01:31Through that pot of coffee.
01:33Do whatever you got to do in the morning.
01:35Yeah, I need more buildup.
01:36And just get locked in for Commanders-Colts.
01:39Nice and early.
01:40I mean, listen, we try to sleep in a little bit.
01:42I think all of us try to sleep in a little bit on the weekends
01:44if we have a shot.
01:45But I can't watch my team play from my bed.
01:49No.
01:49That's not a thing.
01:50Oh, you'll be up.
01:51I got to be up.
01:51I'm not recommending that.
01:53It's not at 6 a.m.
01:54I'm saying you're going to be up.
01:55At 9 a.m., like typically a lot of those games,
01:56I'm sleeping in on Sundays.
01:57Get up at 8 or 8.30.
01:59I'm sleeping in.
01:59Get up at 8 or 8.30, get some breakfast, and then boom,
02:02you're watching NFL football.
02:03Honestly, I need an hour.
02:05I need an hour.
02:06I got to wait a certain amount of time before I can have my coffee.
02:08It's a whole thing.
02:09I got a ritual.
02:10You can't have coffee first thing in the morning.
02:12Oh, I can.
02:13Got to have water.
02:14First thing in the morning, I do have a little bit of water
02:18when I brush my teeth, but the first thing I digest in the morning
02:21is a 12-ounce Coke Zero while I'm driving to work.
02:25And then as soon as I get to work, I fire up the coffee.
02:29Then I'll mix in a water here and there.
02:32But I need the caffeine first.
02:34First and foremost.
02:35You got to have your standards and priorities.
02:37I can't just get up in my PJs.
02:40Obviously, I don't wear PJs.
02:41I wear a T-shirt.
02:42But I got to be downstairs.
02:45Got to be relaxed.
02:45I feel like if you wear full-blown top-bottom pajamas,
02:49that's like you got to be like 65 plus.
02:53You're ready to die.
02:5465 plus maybe in your early 70s,
02:56that's when it's acceptable to wear full-on head-to-toe pajamas as a man.
03:01It's a thing.
03:02For girls, it's totally a thing.
03:03For girls, it's a totally different thing.
03:04I'm talking about men.
03:05Yeah.
03:06No, guys, yeah.
03:07Full-blown pajamas, old guy territory.
03:11Yeah, of course.
03:12Like, we're old adjacent.
03:13We're not old yet.
03:14We're old adjacent.
03:15So eventually, we're going to be wearing?
03:17My dad wore pajamas.
03:19I don't know if I'll ever wear pajamas.
03:20He was a pajamas guy.
03:20My dad was a pajamas guy.
03:21I probably haven't worn pajamas since I was six.
03:23You should be wearing your commander's pajamas,
03:26watching them beat the Colts' ass in week four in London.
03:30Let's hope.
03:31Let's hope.
03:32That's it.
03:33I'm glad I'll that out.
03:34I'm glad I'll that out.
03:35That's who they were going after.
03:37Yeah.
03:38Yeah.
03:38Well, hopefully we have our own weapons on the outside.
03:42Daniel Jones has been a thorn in their side in the past.
03:44I mean, is Daniel Jones, is he going to be 100% healthy?
03:47That's a good question.
03:48What was his injury?
03:49He tore his Achilles.
03:51I don't know if he's going to be 100% healthy.
03:53Yeah.
03:53They could be facing a backup level quarterback.
03:55What week did he do that?
03:57Do you remember?
03:57I don't remember.
03:58That could be the Riley Leonard show.
03:59I thought it was halfway through.
04:00About halfway.
04:01They had a hot start.
04:02I'm going to predict Daniel Jones not starting for the Colts
04:06against the Commanders.
04:07If he did that, let's say, like in November?
04:09It's October 4th.
04:11It says he's expected to be healthy for the start of the season.
04:15Expected is the key word.
04:17You have the same surgeon as Jason Tatum.
04:19Who beat all timeline expectations.
04:22He came back early.
04:23I think Colts Commanders is a little more exciting than the Jags.
04:26Not that they're necessarily a better team,
04:27but the Jags are there twice a year, every year.
04:29There's nothing special about playing the Jags in London.
04:33Yeah.
04:33Be a test for the defense stopping Jonathan Taylor.
04:36Yeah.
04:36Absolutely.
04:37But you would rather face Riley Leonard if he plays than Trevor.
04:42Yes.
04:42Of course.
04:43Trevor Long.
04:43Yes.
04:43So it would be a little bit easier if Riley, I mean, Riley could play well.
04:47I just think you'd rather play him than Trevor Lawrence.
04:50But as Drab said, I'm looking at another story which says Daniel Jones expects to be back
04:54for week one.
04:56Yeah, yeah.
04:57I'm going to guess he does play in that game.
04:59I'm going to go against Cakes.
05:01It's a popular opinion to go against Cakes.
05:04If they're saying he's going to play, I'll take him at their word.
05:07His head coach said he's done a hell of a job with his rehab.
05:10He's been in here every day, 8 to 3 o'clock.
05:14He's got another four months, five months.
05:15The thing that scares me about Daniel Jones is he always tended to have really good games
05:19against the Commanders when he was with the Giants.
05:21That's why my opinion of him is higher than most people's.
05:26Borderline sucked a lot of the other times, but whenever he faced the burgundy of gold,
05:30that dude would ball out.
05:32A little bit concerning.
05:33Were there other schedule leaks yesterday, like just sort of nationally?
05:38Was that just kind of the big one?
05:39I know they leaked that Bengals-Falcons are going to face off in Madrid.
05:43I think that's in week nine.
05:45Right.
05:45The Lions-Bills.
05:47Lions-Bills Thursday night.
05:49In Buffalo.
05:49That's going to open up their new stadium in Buffalo.
05:52Right, week two.
05:52That's been leaked.
05:53And I believe Eagles-Cowboys on Thanksgiving, right?
05:56Yes.
05:57Which would take pretty much the Commanders out of Thanksgiving because they don't play
06:01in Detroit this year, and they're not going to play that afternoon game.
06:05Good.
06:05Because that could just ruin your Thanksgiving.
06:07They're not going to host the...
06:08At night.
06:09You would think probably not the night game here.
06:10They probably would not put three NFC teams on the same day.
06:13Commanders, Thanksgiving free.
06:15That's great.
06:16Decreeing it here right now.
06:18It's just too much pressure.
06:19You know, I love Thanksgiving.
06:21It might be my favorite holiday, and I just don't want to be stressed out worrying about my team.
06:26Yeah.
06:27Let's take that out of the equation.
06:29We could just sit there and casually watch other games.
06:31I don't care about it.
06:32Yes.
06:33You know what I mean?
06:33I just pray on Thanksgiving they're still in the playoff race.
06:37That would be great.
06:38Because last Thanksgiving they were out.
06:40If they stay healthy, they should be.
06:41I don't know.
06:42Should be in it.
06:43Yeah.
06:44If they stay healthy, they should be in the hunt.
06:45And cautiously optimistic.
06:47What else are they saying?
06:49Ravens-Cowboys, is that in Rio?
06:53Yes.
06:53In week three?
06:55September 27th, it looks like.
06:56How many different spots are they playing around the world?
06:59Well, they're playing in Melbourne, Australia.
07:01Paris.
07:02Playing in Rio.
07:03They're playing in London.
07:05Paris, as you mentioned.
07:06And Madrid.
07:06Madrid.
07:07Oh, my God.
07:08Munich and Mexico City.
07:09And they're doing these all different weeks?
07:11So it's sort of like a third of the games, there's going to be, a third of the weeks,
07:16there's going to be something going on.
07:17Somewhere overseas.
07:18Overseas.
07:18Let's go, baby.
07:19So Kix loves that.
07:20I do love it.
07:21What's the Australian game?
07:22That's the opener.
07:23Okay.
07:24What time is that one airing?
07:258.35 p.m.
07:27Eastern time.
07:28Oh, my God.
07:29Yeah.
07:30All right.
07:30So that'll be Sunday night games.
07:33That's fine.
07:34That's not going to be like, you got to get early.
07:35That's a Thursday night.
07:36That's a Thursday night.
07:37Oh, that's a Thursday night.
07:38Yeah.
07:38Okay.
07:41Bizarre.
07:42Yeah, I know.
07:43There's so many games overseas.
07:45I mean, I still remember the first time they announced like an over, I think it was a London
07:50game, probably with the Jags involved.
07:53And it was a huge deal that it was like on Yahoo.
07:57Like you had to watch it on Yahoo.
07:59And I was like, oh, you got to watch an NFL game on Yahoo.
08:02This is bizarre.
08:02But now it's like, now it's just standard.
08:05Like you're watching games on Netflix or Prime or Peacock.
08:09Yeah.
08:09Like you're just all over the place.
08:10Did they do it?
08:11That's my one hole.
08:12Yeah.
08:12I don't have Peacock.
08:14Well, you better, if you like the NFL, you better get it.
08:17You can stand to miss a game or two.
08:19As long as your team's not playing, you don't really have a team.
08:22I like to watch NFL.
08:23What does it feel like to not have a team?
08:25That's kind of weird.
08:26Well, he left the Colts.
08:27Yeah.
08:27I mean, I've kind of lost the Colts.
08:29It started dying down.
08:30It started dying down when Peyton retired.
08:33And then Peyton moved to Denver.
08:35He doesn't have a team.
08:35He's going to break up with the Colts like I broke up with the Raiders.
08:38It's inevitable.
08:40It's happening.
08:40What do you want to do with the Skins fan?
08:41It's happening.
08:41Don't root for them.
08:42I know you root for them for the ratings and you want money.
08:45But what about being a fan?
08:48The heart wants what the heart wants.
08:50I lost it.
08:51His heart wants Luca.
08:53His heart wants Wemby.
08:54We should dedicate a lot.
08:56Like therapy or something.
08:58I don't understand this.
08:59Commander therapy?
08:59You're the only guy I know.
09:01I loved the Colts growing up.
09:03And then when Peyton moved to Denver, I rooted for Peyton.
09:06And then when Andrew Luck came in, I rooted for him.
09:08But after that, he's a root for an individual guy instead of a team.
09:11Yeah.
09:12I like that.
09:13He's a jock sniffer.
09:13I rooted for the Baltimore Colts.
09:16My dad was a Baltimore Colts fan.
09:18I know some bygone era.
09:19That's a great song.
09:20A million years ago.
09:21Yeah.
09:21They left in 1983.
09:23Brooklyn Dodgers.
09:24I mean, you know.
09:25It's gone.
09:26You've got to get with it.
09:28You're a Caps fan.
09:29You're a Wizards fan.
09:30I believe that.
09:31I believe you're a Caps fan.
09:32Maybe you don't live and die with it because it's not your top sport.
09:35But you're a Caps fan.
09:35You're a Wizards fan.
09:37Mm-hmm.
09:38You're an Orioles fan.
09:39I don't know if he's a Wizards fan.
09:41I don't know if he is.
09:42I don't know.
09:43I probably go more games than any of you guys.
09:44That doesn't matter.
09:46You go to more games.
09:47He won 17 games.
09:49I'm talking about deep in your soul.
09:51Does it hurt you if the Wizards win or lose?
09:53I don't think it does.
09:54I think he's a Wizards fan.
09:56He's a Terps fan.
09:57No, he's because he slobbers all over Luka and other players.
10:01Yeah, he has too many dalliances with other players.
10:03He has other loves.
10:05He has other loves.
10:06Yeah, but if you had to ask him what team does he root for, he would say the Wizards.
10:09Yeah.
10:10I mean, I know the guy pretty well.
10:11I think he's a Wiz fan.
10:12Okay, but again, he may.
10:15He's not on Cakes' level, though.
10:17Trust me, he doesn't have an NFL team.
10:19His marriage with the Wizards is very tenuous.
10:22There's a lot of side chicks.
10:24Hold on.
10:25All right, let's say this.
10:26If the Lakers play the Wizards.
10:27He's got an open marriage with the Wizards.
10:29It would be a tough call, but I would root for the Wizards, but I want Luka to win one
10:33before.
10:34See?
10:35I think he would.
10:36You know what?
10:37You're right.
10:37He doesn't like the Wizards.
10:38You don't know him at all, Vickle.
10:40He's preposterous.
10:40I think I know him.
10:41He said he would root for the Wizards.
10:43Well, he just said he wanted Luka to win one before the Wizards.
10:46I'm having fun.
10:46What do you care?
10:47I don't really care.
10:48I'm not much different than you when it comes to the NFL team.
10:51He's a mercenary when it comes to his fans.
10:53Cakes, I've won him over, though.
10:54I think Cakes became a legitimate...
10:55Don't get so defensive.
10:57Don't get so defensive.
10:58I think he's become a legitimate Skins fan.
11:00I think.
11:01If the Wizards play defense like JP, they'd win more than 17 games.
11:05Nice one.
11:08But Matt and Matt, I'm not as big of 49er fans as I used to be.
11:12I was a diehard.
11:13I know, I know, I know.
11:14I mean, I would watch games by myself.
11:16I would borderline cry when they lost playoff games.
11:18Yeah, I know, I know.
11:19But life happens.
11:19It's not that important.
11:20But still, it's your favorite team.
11:22I mean, I still root for them, but I don't...
11:24Yes, they are.
11:25It's your favorite team.
11:25But fantasy has impacted me.
11:28I know.
11:28It's impacted everybody.
11:29Because I root for all kinds of players and teams.
11:31We know you root for Drake May, too.
11:33We know that.
11:34We're well aware.
11:35But I'll say this.
11:36We had to do this kind of assignment for the Washingtonian Magazine on favorite sports moments.
11:41Yeah.
11:42And I wanted to be different than you guys.
11:44We each had different ones.
11:45There's my cross.
11:46And I was going to go with...
11:47It cakes for five paragraphs, too.
11:50This was long.
11:51I mean...
11:51Oh, good.
11:52I wasn't the only one.
11:52You put them all together, it's like a five-page article.
11:55Well, a Washingtonian Magazine should post it all.
11:58They're going to end it.
11:58I didn't like their idea.
11:59Or whatever.
12:00It wasn't a good idea.
12:01It took me 45 minutes to write it.
12:03I don't want it to be wasted time.
12:04They should post every syllable.
12:06If they want to whack 80% of mine and firm it up, I'm fine with that.
12:10It doesn't matter.
12:11I'm just glad that it's done.
12:13It's over.
12:14It's done.
12:15Anyway, what I was going to say is,
12:16I didn't choose this as my moment
12:18because I thought it would be better to say George Mason
12:20because we had the involvement in the show.
12:22But personally, possibly the most fun I had was,
12:27and it's pretty empty, but it was a Wizards game
12:29when they advanced to play the Celtics.
12:32I went to the Raptors game.
12:34It was awesome.
12:35Yeah.
12:35So that's what you put?
12:36No, no.
12:37I said I chose George Mason.
12:38Oh, you chose George Mason.
12:39You can't put your highlight.
12:41Is it the Wizards?
12:42A first-round win.
12:43But it was awesome.
12:45That was the height of wall, Beal.
12:47I'm sure it was great.
12:48I remember John Wall hopping up on the table.
12:50It was awesome.
12:51But that can't be your top sports moment.
12:53That's why.
12:5430 years of broadcasting.
12:56But I like the NBA better than all sports other than maybe the NFL.
13:03Yeah, you're a big NBA mark.
13:05I know.
13:05It's just your thing.
13:05It's just unusual that you don't have an NFL team.
13:10I mean, I could say I like the Colts.
13:12I just don't follow them.
13:13Yeah.
13:14Yeah, but if the Colts played the Skins, who would you root for?
13:17I mean, I'd root for probably the Commanders,
13:19because Kelsey is so into it.
13:21Right, right.
13:22That's okay.
13:22I'm happy for her.
13:23That's fine.
13:23Come on, Meg.
13:24That's how Giggs came over to Terps.
13:26Dumb.
13:26Because all his kids went there.
13:28Absolutely.
13:28You know what I mean?
13:29He didn't care about Poussin anymore.
13:30I mean, I root for the Commanders, but deep in my core,
13:34like I wasn't playing the saxophone Hail to the Redskins
13:38like you were when you were 10.
13:40I was wearing a Colts.
13:42Oh, here it comes.
13:42Or when he's 50.
13:46That's not it.
13:47That's a good one.
13:48You got to practice.
13:48There it is.
13:51I hadn't picked it up in 30 years.
13:53It'd be a break.
13:56It's not bad.
13:58I mean, it's not great, but it's not bad.
13:59I missed notes.
14:04All right, come on, man.
14:05That's a solid B minus.
14:07I hadn't blown that horn in 30 years.
14:08I guarantee it's better that he can play piano these days
14:11or I can play guitar these days.
14:12I can't play one note on the piano.
14:13I know one note.
14:14Middle C.
14:15That's all I got.
14:16You can still find middle C?
14:17I can find it.
14:18I can't.
14:19These fingers cannot tickle the ivories.
14:23They're not talented.
14:25Right.
14:25I have no innate musical talent.
14:27By the way, did you see the viral?
14:29And it saddens me.
14:30The viral little video that people were saying was AI.
14:32I have no idea.
14:34The guy looked just like Michael Jackson on the bus.
14:37I don't know if you saw that.
14:38No.
14:38It's like a guy in Peru or something.
14:40He looked just like Michael Jackson.
14:42So now there are theories Michael Jackson's alive.
14:43I think there have been theories that Jackson's been alive for a long time.
14:46But the problem is that it does look just like him.
14:49The nose, the chin, everything.
14:50And I assume it's AI, but some people say AI can't even tell what's AI anymore.
14:54So who knows?
14:56But let's just assume it's real.
14:57Then he showed his hand to the camera, and you could tell it wasn't Michael.
15:01Did he have a glove?
15:02Did he have a sparkly glove?
15:03It looked like Cakes' hand.
15:05It just didn't look like Michael Jackson's hand.
15:07It just didn't look like Michael Jackson's hand.
15:09That to me was the tell.
15:11I'm going to be honest.
15:12Michael Jackson died 18 years ago.
15:14This is the first time I've ever heard anyone say there's a theory that he's still alive.
15:18I've never heard that.
15:18The other people I heard of, like, Epstein and Tupac, Michael Jackson's still alive?
15:25I'm not saying I believe that, but there's those theories.
15:27Yeah, 100%.
15:27He's so dead.
15:28He's so gone.
15:30That probe of all didn't have it.
15:31I was going to say, he's not surviving that.
15:33It wasn't his body in a casket in front of 20,000 people.
15:36There's all these people that they think are Michael.
15:39I could go you down the wormhole if you want to.
15:42On your internet, maybe.
15:45Why Peru, by the way?
15:46Why would he be in Peru?
15:47That's a weird mention.
15:49I don't even know if it's Peru.
15:50It might have been Bolivia.
15:50I don't know.
15:51My son is flying to Peru later today.
15:53It was some weird spot.
15:54It's going to be there for two weeks.
15:55Peru.
15:56Someplace I'm sure I'll never, ever visit.
15:58Peru.
16:00I think I could find it on a map, but it might be a little bit of a struggle.
16:03It'd be nice.
16:04I could get you the continent.
16:05It's definitely South America.
16:06I could go, like, here's Brazil.
16:09I'd put it on the upper left side.
16:11I think I know the shape of it, kind of.
16:13I don't think it was Peru, actually.
16:14It might have been Bolivia.
16:16I don't know.
16:16Somewhere.
16:17Somewhere.
16:18Michael Jackson is not in South America right now.
16:21Correct.
16:22If I had to guess.
16:23Maybe Michael Jackson, the former Georgetown player.
16:26I'm just telling you.
16:27The funny part is that it looks just like him in the face, like it's 60-something years old
16:31or whatever, but the hand, to me, was a giveaway.
16:33Did he moonwalk to the back of the bus?
16:35No.
16:36No, but he shooed the camera away with his cakes-like hand.
16:40Do you have, like, loafers and white socks on?
16:42You should see it.
16:43You should see the video.
16:45I've seen videos of people that looked like him before.
16:48I mean, this was a few years ago.
16:50Or believe me, there's multiple people out there that look like Michael Jackson.
16:52Speaking of Michael Jackson, by the way, a funny bit.
16:54I clicked on Magic Johnson.
16:56It was a viral video.
16:57It was, like, a two-minute loop of Magic and, like, six other celebrities who hung up on
17:04Michael Jackson when he would call them back in, like, the 80s because he had the distinctive
17:08voice and he thought, everybody thought that they were getting goofed on when Michael Jackson
17:13would call them.
17:13Oh, they didn't think it was really Michael Jackson.
17:15Yeah, they thought they were being pranked.
17:16And then they would hang up.
17:17And then somebody would later tell them, you know, you hung up on the real Michael Jackson.
17:21Like, Magic was beside himself.
17:22He's like, I can't believe I hung up on the legend Michael Jackson.
17:26Which is pretty funny.
17:27Coming up next, we got to see some of the prospects at the NBA Combine.
17:32We did.
17:33Are you scared by some of the shooting or lack thereof from A.J. DeBonsa?
17:37We'll get into that next here on the Junkies.
