00:00I heard this earlier, and I was really shocked
00:03because it was asked as if people were going to watch.
00:09But I'm thankful this question was asked on the station
00:12because it made me think about how I would use it to my advantage.
00:16So the Lions play tomorrow at noon,
00:21and college football kicks off at noon.
00:24It's an actual game.
00:26North Carolina, Bill Belichick, TCU in Ireland.
00:30Why? I have no idea.
00:32But TCU's going to have shamrocks on their helmets, so I guess, hey, whatever.
00:36I wanted to ask you a question.
00:39If I forced you, you were going to watch one of these,
00:43but you were not allowed to turn the channel.
00:45You had to lock in and just watch it.
00:48Which of these are you going to watch?
00:51Because Doug and Scott were breaking down the preseason game
00:54at a level that I think even the Lions coaches thought were a little bit much.
00:59I mean, they were talking about, listen,
01:02I don't know if we're keeping four tight ends or five,
01:04but Johnny Buttcheeks might make the team,
01:07and you're like, wait, what?
01:09Who?
01:11You know, who do you want to see make this team and show out tonight?
01:14I think Orville Redenbacher's got a real shot.
01:17You're like, aha, he could make the team and you never see him again.
01:22But it was this idea of, okay, people,
01:26what college did Johnny Buttcheeks go to, Mike?
01:30Omaha.
01:33I mean, these guys were on one.
01:35So I'm asking you the question, because for me, this is a no-brainer.
01:41I would rather sit in silence like it's 1880 than watch the preseason.
01:47I'm going to be locked in on what I think is the looming disaster of Bill Belichick.
01:52His son is on medical leave.
01:54His GM and wartime consigliere, Mike Lombardi, suspended and under investigation.
02:00I have to watch, because I think TCU's going to drop a bomb on North Carolina.
02:05I will watch that, all for the spectacle that is Belichick failure.
02:10But I don't even know if I'm even approaching a majority.
02:14Because I do wonder if people will just turn on the Lions, because, well, it's the Lions.
02:20Let me help you out with that.
02:21In my household, it'll be very simple.
02:23I can turn on to that North Carolina TCU game.
02:26You can break the remote.
02:27Because if giving your scenario, and I have to choose one.
02:32No, you have to choose one.
02:33And you can't be Canton and just lie down.
02:35I have zero desire to see the try-hards.
02:39Because the final preseason game, Mike, it's been a long time since James Stewart got busted up in a final
02:46preseason game.
02:47In Buffalo.
02:48Right.
02:48Mooch tried to kill him.
02:49Right.
02:49It was like 11 straight carries.
02:51And he's dead.
02:53Run him again.
02:54Is he hurt?
02:54Run him again.
02:55Other than that, no starter is playing.
02:59If a starter is playing in this game, it means they're about to get cut.
03:02But, so, no, I have no desire.
03:04Whereas for college week zero, it's the marquee game of the college week.
03:10No, I don't know.
03:11There's a couple decent ones now.
03:13But this is at least Bill Belichick.
03:16A standalone.
03:17Right.
03:17Don't you at least, out of morbid curiosity, want to see it?
03:21Do you know who his quarterback is?
03:24Belichick?
03:25Mm-hmm.
03:25You're not going to believe the level of ass that this guy has recruited.
03:29I was about to say, is it the kid from Maryland, Edwards?
03:32By way of?
03:34Is it Northwestern?
03:36No.
03:36Wisconsin.
03:37Wisconsin.
03:37Really?
03:38Yes.
03:38Yes.
03:38It doesn't matter where he plays.
03:39He sucks.
03:40The point is, oh, and here's the other thing.
03:42Belichick, bold strategy in the portal era.
03:44I'm really upset that I know this.
03:4640 freshmen.
03:4840.
03:50You got other teams.
03:51They got the Harlem Globetrotters.
03:53The average age of the players is 28 years old.
03:55Belichick's out here like it's a junction, boys.
03:5840 freshmen.
03:59I'm watching.
04:00I'll watch because it's college football at at least a decent level, and it's a story.
04:06I'm shocked Belichick's even here.
04:08It's crumbling around him.
04:10I wonder if UNC gets the three wins.
04:12But the other side of it is, I could see a world where Cookies is watching the preseason game.
04:18Doug and Scott, they may have a suite at the game.
04:21I mean, they are all about it.
04:22They'll be there.
04:23Cookies, I don't think so.
04:24Because I don't see a story for this game.
04:27There's, I mean, unless you want to know who's going to be the backup QB.
04:32But what about Chester Cheekerson?
04:34Is he going to make the team or not?
04:36Is he related to Johnny Butt-Cheeks?
04:37He's his cousin, my marriage.
04:40Played at Valdosta State.
04:42I'm listening to you, and I mean, God love it.
04:45It was, it kind of warmed my heart.
04:47They were so innocent about it.
04:49They were so damn excited.
04:51Well, listen, I got to tell you, this guy, and I'm like, who is this guy?
04:54He's going to be selling paint next week.
04:56But okay, is he going to make the team or not?
04:592-4-8.
05:00I will watch the college football.
05:02I will.
05:03At least there's a story for the pros.
05:07Unless you're a family member of one of the players out there, there's really no vested interest.
05:12Because...
05:12It's a lot like Canton.
05:16Chances are...
05:17I tried to help David's son.
05:18He didn't want the help.
05:19David, I'm trying to move forward.
05:21Chances are, only about five people who play tomorrow are actually going to make the team.
05:26Five more than Canton.
05:28That's enough.
05:29They put up a good fight.
05:31I saw the final score, David.
05:33You did get to double-digit.
05:3487-40.
05:36Wasn't quite 87.
05:38Did your son play defense?
05:40I'm not answering any more questions.
05:41That's embarrassing.
05:42I am not answering any more questions.
05:43His NIL value just plummeted.
05:45Here's the problem.
05:46I can tell you right now, and I didn't even see the game, David.
05:49Your son was wide open.
05:50They should have threw him the ball more.
05:52I'm not talking about this.
05:54Let's just talk about North Carolina.
05:55He would have been the difference maker.
05:56And then he goes off to North Carolina next year.
06:00You see the video of the youth sports parent go out and trip the kid at football?
06:04I saw that today.
06:05That was David yesterday.
06:06Couldn't take any more.
06:08I saw the one with the sister hit somebody on the field.
06:11Not great.
06:12Not great.
06:13David, your thought on it.
06:14You have to watch one of these.
06:17See, it's important.
06:18The Lions need to find out what their secondary is going to look like.
06:22Enos Rakestraw, it's important to see if he can even end the game healthy.
06:28Walking on two legs.
06:30David.
06:30It's important to see all this.
06:32So I will be watching North Carolina versus TCU.
06:37I can't do preseason.
06:39Rakestraw, if you're playing in this game.
06:41Fellas, all I can tell you is they were getting a ton of texts.
06:44They were.
06:45That just tells me there's a lot of losers.
06:47I actually think Rolando McClain could make this team.
06:51And I'm like, what do you have going on in your life if you're going to turn this on at
06:55noon to know the ninth wide receiver?
06:58If you're playing in the game, it's like what Ice Cube said.
07:00Here's what they think about you.
07:02Not much.
07:03So, yeah, I'll be watching college football just to kind of see what's going on with North Carolina.
07:09Will they be the dumpster fire that they were last year?
07:12Because everybody thought, oh, Belichick, he's going to come in here and revolutionize the game.
07:17He did not.
07:18They're going to be worse.
07:19David, the text, please.
07:20What do you got, buddy?
07:21Someone says, TCU UNC all day.
07:25It's the first game of the year.
07:26That means something.
07:27Catch me doing yard work with the smoker on.
07:30Hmm.
07:31Does Johnny Buttcheeks have any relations to Jake Butt?
07:36I choose to watch the Lions tomorrow.
07:39Wow.
07:40Choose to watch the Lions tomorrow.
07:41North Carolina.
07:42There's no shame.
07:44I'm just telling you they were talking about some guy and his last name was Cheeks.
07:48I'm telling you.
07:49I don't know what the hell they were doing.
07:51If you're watching the Lions tomorrow, I want to hear why you're watching the Lions tomorrow.
07:56There's no judgment.
07:57Because your life is going nowhere.
07:58No, no.
07:59You have nothing in this world.
08:01Cut his mic off.
08:02No.
08:03248-539-9797.
08:05Why are you choosing to watch the Lions tomorrow?
08:08Because your parents hated you.
08:14These realignments make no sense.
08:15Did my toddler get a hold of my Xbox controller and move these teams around in college football?
08:20Yes, seven from Tom.
08:24Your dog's ass sat on the controller.
08:27Whiz bang, pal.
08:27The Pac-12's got eight teams in it.
08:29And Sacramento State's in the Mac.
08:32I was like, why don't you just use the old Pac-8?
08:36It's eight teams.
08:37Why are you going with 12?
08:39But wait, there's more.
08:40Texas State?
08:42The Armadillos.
08:44I only knew Texas State.
08:46Because of Sinbad.
08:48No.
08:49And what was it?
08:50Quantum Leap guy was the quarterback.
08:52Scott Bakula.
08:53And I believe it's where a...
08:58I got to double check this before I say it.
09:00I believe it's where a former MSU receiver ended his career.
09:05Oh, Donnie Corley.
09:06Yeah.
09:07At Texas.
09:08I believe it was Texas State.
09:09I think you're right.
09:09Yeah.
09:10I think you're right.
09:12I think you're right.
09:13Yeah.
09:14Did he do anything down there?
09:15Yeah.
09:17Okay.
09:17Good talk.
09:18Texas State.
09:19All right.
09:19We'll get some of the people.
09:24No.
09:24Texas Southern.
09:26Oh.
09:26Texas Southern.
09:27Was Texas Southern where Mike Davis coached before going to U of D?
09:32Oh, boy.
09:33Hold on.
09:34I think so.
09:36It was.
09:38Yes.
09:39All right.
09:40We're really losers.
09:41Good talk.
09:42Let's get to the people.
09:43It was.
09:43It was.
09:43It was.
09:44Yeah.
09:44It was Texas Southern.
09:45Yes.
09:45Get to the people next.
09:46We're Texas Southern.
09:48Do I know anyone who went to school?
09:50Texas.
09:50Hold on.
09:51Check this for me.
09:52Did Michael Strahan go to Texas Southern?
09:55Let me check this out.
09:56Michael Strahan.
09:58Texas Southern.
09:59If I get this, it's going to be a good day.
10:01If you get this, Mike, you should just leave.
10:05I don't know.
10:07I'll have it for you.
10:08Okay.
10:09I'll have it for you when we get back.
10:10We didn't pay the Wi-Fi bill again?
10:11Ninety.
10:12Seven.
10:12One.
10:16Sorry about that.

10:19Largest Trek stacking outlet in the country.
10:23Northville's Michigan's Trek Superstore.
10:25Brand new warehouse.
