The MMQB’s Andrew Brandt joins Rich in-studio to discuss the possibility of Rams DT Aaron Donald retiring, why the Cardinals seem to be dragging their feet on a Kyler Murray extension, why he’s still stunned by the guaranteed contract the Browns gave Deshaun Watson and why Baker Mayfield won’t be starting for Cleveland if Watson gets suspended, how NIL has turned college football recruiting into “the wild, wild west,” and why he doesn’t expect a team to sign Colin Kaepernick or the NFL for force Daniel Snyder to sell the Commanders. 

Rich recaps the hilarious fantasy football dustup between Reds OF Tommy Pham and Giants OF Joc Pederson that resulted in Pham slapping Peterson and getting a 3-game suspension and Rich listing his top ten fantasy football team names generated by the whole kerfuffle. 

Rich reacts to the anniversary of the release of ‘Fletch’ and reveals what happened to him over the weekend that made him feel VERY old.

YouTube page YouTube.com/which wasn't show and there is also our podcast as well. We've already had somebody here from Sports Illustrated now part two men writes the bits will writes all about business and the MM QB in Sports Illustrated, the executive director of the Moorad center at Villanova on his business of sports podcast is must listen to material Andrew Brandt document in person to see and always great to be with you and document LAC. My son always enjoyed, and terrific. Good to have you here so we just had a conversation and many people across the talk landscape today catching the wind of what our Donald told our friend Brandon Marshall on as I am aptly podcast that is at peace with things. But it's not about money. However, there needs to be a business aspect that's comfortable for him and his family. How do you think less need handles that information and I would always say when someone says is not about money.

Translation is all about money you just talk to two contradictory part of that statement on the podcast as not about money but I got it.

Take care my family got my bills and she said that only one sound as well. It's interesting because nothing's been done there so that raises an eyebrow for me because this is a contract that is needed adjustment in the Rams have done that with Matthew Stafford with a couple others in there always sort of borrowing from the future on the So they could actually read reduce his cab by raising a bonus and spreading it out as you do with Proration over future years we haven't done it yet. That's a question for me. Why haven't they done it yet. Do I think they will.

It seems like it seems like they've taken care of. As you mentioned, Matthew Stafford, they brought in Ellen Robinson. They brought in Bobby Wegner. Why not take care of Donald. The fact it hasn't been done. You know you can always chalk it up to work get into it.

We been doing the other things but that sort of makes me wonder why hasn't that been done.

Has that been resistance from the Donald camp. We want to wait. We may retire. We don't know what's going on, or is the team hesitant.

For some reason to get it done because this doesn't seem like it's a problem if they wanted to get it done. Just add money figured out you get the new market.

Whatever the market has changed since Aaron did his contract years ago.

I don't understand what could be that they're working on cup first or how does that were arguing. I mean you can walk and chew gum right you can ago renegotiated to contract the same time. But what what is the mechanism and also I know I'm not supposed ask multiple questions and one when one bite at the apple here, but I will is just you first have anything to do with verses again to to clarify for your listeners. That's when you can release a player and have the Impact shifted to 2023 correct your pushing out the pain which the ramps do with a lot of things they do they serve credit card span, push it out in the future worry about that later yeah could be. Could be.

Maybe they got someone there and release site doesn't come to mind who they would push off the roster. That's make a lot of money right now but I could come into it and I think you bring up the other thing which we have to address cup is not someone that seems like he's going to make a deal is going to show rumbles of discontent he's going to hold out. Stay away. The fact is the biggest story this off-season to me. Rich is not Russell Wilson and the quarterbacks. It is the transformation of the wide receiver market absolute transformation where the top market was 18 to 20 million a year now. It's 23 to 25 year furtive Dante for Tyree kill for Ajay Brown. All these receivers changing the marketplace. You go back to cup who is just waiting under that number. So here's another issue for the Rams to have to deal with and this is not just because their Super Bowl champion met that hangovers always there, but they've got to address cup if he makes an deal of that great, but even if they don't, can have a guy making 10 million under market to players like Killen Adams and Brown. So the guy get that done and they gotta get Donald figured out, but this one I found more curious because we know the market.

We know they can do this. They know they've done with other players and he's talking a retirement but he saying its business.

Let's watch and see what happens. Andrew Brandt here in the retries and Sean Moeller wondering potentially what you know why Donald is hitting June wondering about maybe a contract more commensurate with his abilities that he he's out is an amazing that he's outperformed arguably a six year hundred $35 million to hear you mean so why why is it something been done yet with Kyler Murray in Arizona like what what what what what were those tea leaves because we had Steve come on and he's like when I trained him and now will take care of will get to it were to get to it. But here we are in an and it what what what what's the weight about their start of the off-season, there was a missive from his agent Eric Burkart. I have on my just because I've never seen anything so there is, yeah.

It was all of your business stationery's resume. I have a here's her very favorite in the font and everything else and I I said on Twitter that time the translation is show me the money and I would've guessed.

If putting myself in my old age, and choose my reaction doing some like that would be we approach them.

They said will wait, they said no were not doing anything. Maybe they said, not this year maybe this is that not right now. Get into the summer.

Whatever the reason, but here's the deal Rich. After three years, corn of the CBA. You can extend players yet to wait so Kyler Murray played three years as a starter nose number one pick those Macon 67 8 million a year, but that 6789 year while counterparts at his level who are veterans are making 25 to 30 year so the Cardinals have benefited immensely got an extraordinary value for three years. It's the best value in football, having a rookie contract quarterback the best value in football by far, the Cowboys got it with that Prescott, the Seahawks got it with Russell Wilson, the Chargers are getting with Justin Herbert but after that three years ago.

Make a decision and the Browns last year said to Baker Mayfield now working away and it was fortuitous for them. I don't know what's going on with Amar Jackson and the Cardinals are saying. I think they're saying working away we got this year we got option your next your big number but still an option year we got potential franchise tax. You think they're really going to roll the dice that Murray will not hold out or make a big stink of it that there like there's no way he's gonna let Colt McCoy take the first snap of the season. You really you really think that there are no run that risk. The other part of the CBA is increased sanctions and penalties for any kind of cold out so I don't think he's going to be as compliant as say Baker Mayfield was with the Browns a year ago. He may make us think.

But again, I look at this kinda like the way of Donald. Why hasn't it been done. That's right you what we do in their and if Kime says he's not going to work course not go anywhere lack of freedom, but are they gonna make him play on that number. I mean I think that's the question are the ravens gonna make Lamar Jackson play on that number or is there something more going on without an agent, and he hasn't wanted to do a deal because again, here's the problem with paying quarterbacks. There doesn't seem to be a middle ground right now.

There's a rookie level and then there's 3035 year right so what you do and I I say this is a former executive. If you have someone that's clearly not in the Aaron Rodgers Tom Brady Russell Wilson category and you don't have a rookie deal what you do like Ryan Tannehill is going to be a Casualty in a year. No question because they paid him that level. There was no middle right so you either pay and a guy 8 million on a rookie deal or your Panama 30 million a year and there doesn't seem to be anyone served taken the middle tier and a frankly from an agent. I don't take the middle tier either Andrew Brandt here in the retries in show business of sports podcast and so much more. So what is what your best guess of what's happening with the Browns and Mayfield currently right now we Mayfield are all the other stuff that really a lot you can't you can't you can't parse them out right one. There all together as a sense is is that it until the league finds out how many games there.

Assuming Ray Watson's going to miss they're knocking to cough up Mayfield under the idea that Mayfield could be forced to play and have no better choice than to be a fill in for as long as Watson is suspended only to see the ground back to Watson II don't I don't how you know Mayfield is going to handle that. I think it should be something he says no to personally or or the market there waiting for someone to get hurt in training camp like this thing is going to go into August as were sitting here right now heading into June, which I haven't talked to you since the Watson deal and I just have to say it again it still sends me to this day know I've followed this business for 30 years I have been looking for that white whale that's going to get that fully guaranteed 56 year deal never thought it would be this player in part due to his own misconduct. Think about that in part due to his own misconduct. He created the perfect storm has a five year, fully guaranteed $230 million contract 46 year more than any other quarterback, and protection against suspension so suspension only forfeits salary not bonus so is making 46 million this year. 45 of it is bonus not subject to suspension a million of it is the salary subject's bench. So Sadie's suspended eight games half the season out of 46 million who lose half $1 million to make 45.5 the Browns sold their soul for this player.

Now they've got all the PR's been terrible you know you know what they want to say what they want to say is hey, never in a million years will a quarterback like this be on the market. We did it. We went and got him pierced terrible sure, but by September on his throne.

Touchdowns are next September. It'll go away. I know that's what they're thinking, but they they did something for this player that no one's ever done for any player contractually and is just amazing happened with this guy.

Okay Baker is due 18 million. This is going to have to be an NBA trade.

In other words, NBA trades are about And expiring in money and shifting. So there you have to move him with a another asset or pay some of the 18 million in other words, you do a bonus save for $10 million and then you move them for an 89 salary. That's the only way I see this happening. If there any suitors. I mean we've maybe Carolina, maybe Seattle might know he they're even interested. So what you do with their act, then you do a dish on Watson Houston situation. You say Baker you just do your thing and will pay you shut up and put an end don't play set up and go away. He's not can be the guy when when Watson suspended that's Jacoby reset the so it's a no-win situation for Baker or the Browns but will get paid. Now he'll get that 18 million is just question of how and where Andrew Brandt here on the retries and shown one of the many items that you're discussing at school and Villanova and on your pod and columns is the name, image and likeness what even with the phrase to use wild West that just burst into the most ugly spectacle around with Nick Sabin is essentially saying Texas A&M bought their top recruiting class and jump Jimbo Fisher firing back. And you know the Commissioner of the SEC and Greg Sankey's and everybody hush up.

Let's go back to our corners and figure out you know our own thing or what we can do what what what can be done like what do you think can be done in order to reign in whatever needs to be reined in and then make it uniform enough that we don't see this public spectacle and I would see I was in this chair year ago, the Supreme Court just happened this where they scolded the NCA for any kind of restrictions then after two years of planning to regulate NAL May members likeness the NCA throughout the they threw up their hands. They said were scared of and I trust were scared of lawyers were out just like whoa they just left it for the schools.

The conferences the state laws to enforce and no one's enforcing so it's become truly the wild West where these collectives have formed collectives are donor based pools of money to basically get players on campus, whether from high school or from transfer portal that is exactly what Iowa was not supposed to be inducement money to get them on campus. It's become that it's become programs like horns for hard in Texas where every scholarship offense of lineman gets $50,000 to do what who knows chauffeur birthday parties. Who knows, and it's become this weapon to recruit now Sabin calls him out right. Everyone in the. The murmuring about the Texas A&M recruiting class he called out the murmuring about Jackson State getting that big time recruit. He called it out.

The murmuring about the Miami guy that basically owns Miami Athletics called a so they all clap back and Jimbo Fisher cut back hard as you saw, but then I saw who he was speaking to Sabin and I said all the people could put money in the Alabama Birmingham business leaders who he was, basically say hey guys step it up I was your guy was rotator protection because we just lot now. He was the number two recruiting class but is like hey we can lose up Texas A&M. We had get our guys. I don't know how you regulate it. Everyone's waiting for Congress.

Congress, as he knows a bit busy right now there are a lot of bills float around Congress, state laws, they're not doing anything. Alabama had a law they repealed it because they were behind other states that didn't have lots who's going to really enforce this Jean Smith EAD at Ohio State is said we are going to come after someone so maybe some school that didn't doubt their eyes and cross their teas and they can make an example of them but I don't know, I know, here's the answer Andrew and ask what I said. I said it after the super league got formed and lasted less than the amount of time the project was the head coach of the Jets you know back in last summer as well with the super league in Europe is that the only space in American sports that they could have the same thing the same idea is college athletics college football Greg Sankey can just get in a room instant call up Jean Smith or or you know, obviously Jean Smith is of the Commissioner of the Big Ten but he is the athletic director at the Ohio State and just get together with everybody and say let's get 4050 schools. Together these are our rules and you do it just as the NCAA.

You know Mark Emmert was just an empty suit.

Anyway he's leaving right do it now. The NCAA right under the college football playoff umbrella as they get to decide their own college football playoff. That's the money that's the big money pot due to do that, with your own name, image and likeness rules and and enforce them yourself and see if and and and see who sues the know and this is when the superexpensive who sues and and see what the Supreme Court has to say about you know like that's literally or and then you play a couple seasons under it as it moves up the court system and the rest of the country loves it and who's going who's going to repeal that football care unit same like Gary Lowery loves it when you repeal it well, like To me is the way this thing is heading. I see PNC has value for 90% of scholars athletics. I meant Villanova with 24 sports one makes money hoops hoops course, but that's college sports. The 90% of college sports needs, the basic NCA regulation for big time college football big time college basketball. I agree with you there's going to be something else.

Okay, not NCA something else that monitors regulates but the thing I mentioned, and maybe people are listening worry about this, but there's can be a professional aspect to it and the whole idea be time behind Emmert in the MCA has been two separate professional and amateur sports, but I don't know how you can do that anymore. After unionizing every yes, exactly. So now, or talk about sour. Now you know Sabin can't spend what he spending it used to be facilities that it would attract these kids right now.

It's an IL what's your an IL I'm hearing all the stories were kids are staying in the trend going. They're going to go to transfer portal unless they can get to 50 unless I can get half a million. And if not, transfer portal, so the kids and Sabin said this in that speech he said it's it's like free agency without a It's like free agency without a In college sports. So we are to true inflection point in college sports and your ideas a good one. It's going to professionalize there can be unionization. There's can be a salary-cap there's can be employee status were players enough to worry about taxes and worry about insurance all those kind of things will come in to play. Somebody's going to get a hold. I think that that's the way this is hundred. I mean it's it's it's already gone. I mean, unless you continue to have this construct of amateurism with all this money flowing in and away, so sick. Sabin will be around. I don't think nesting goes down, but you're already seeing it's not the same world anymore and these donors if I'm left on a coaching like worried to death because some donor bought this kid for say 250 grand and the kid didn't you know the kid is benched for the kid and get the plate on one front skin go to the donor met our go to coach the coaches told the donor to Brad buddy Gary, I'm still the coach around here and we'll see if the coach gets fired or will as soon as I will like that's maybe the way this thing can add I don't know the money always talks will save us 20 to know what's going on in your world for us and you will back into her Los Angeles Tuesday Sir well I I've also been talking quickly about The tryout. I think Craig was great. Mick Lombardi was with the 49ers years ago when I was with the Raiders make some sense. But don't get excited about Signings been out as everyone knows five years and I just don't think teams want to deal with stuff from a potentially around backup players. I just don't think he's gonna be on a ready list, but don't get excited about that. I don't think my friends and family in DC should not get too excited about Daniel Snyder being ousted counting the votes as Washington owner because you know he's got allies he's got friends all these things are go around the team a been around for years and he is survived on regular movement deeper into Virginia.

I like going on every single Washington fan that I know Elvis is like, come down the hall and I yeah I'm from there on who I know where that is slightly woke and people are saying the Raven Stadium is closer than that to the downtown DC but money talks. If he's got the deal out there now is got Virginia, Maryland and DC bidding for his loyalties maybe makes the deal down there which would add to the negativity around. Good to see you enter Brent, thanks for coming in.

Thanks. Let me know that your picture around her but to check out this man's podcast, read his material Sports Illustrated. Thanks, Elizabeth H Charles Andrew Brandt right here on the rich are shown we come back to the book the story of the weekend to guys fighting over fantasy football and baseball that's coming up next back here on our terrestrial radio outfit all one big happy family. So this is not only the greatest sports story of the Memorial day weekend of 2022. Bought this is now. I know it was a Super Bowl when you're in Los Angeles and I know that there is been a specific significant sports headline machine that's been happening in the NFL in March and so much but this might be my favorite sports story of all of 2022 to date and this could be the clubhouse leader deep into the football season and this is a baseball story that didn't even happen during a game. Word filtered out the Jock Peterson of the San Francisco Giants got slapped by Tommy Pham of the Cincinnati Reds. Will Smith style in batting practice. Tommy Pham got suspended three games for hitting Jock Peterson why why would you get so angry with the player during batting practice will we learned it had to do with a fantasy football league. The two of them were in last. So not only set to do it to see football, it's a garage that's been held for months and then just Jock Peterson explaining and just like Jeff's Piccoli fashion is maybe met, maybe even better was John Peterson. After getting slapped behind Tommy Pham but we're in physics is together somebody a player on the injured reserve when they were listed as South and had another player there is a text message in the group saying that I was cheating because I was stashing players on my bench and I looked up the rules and the screenshot of the rules says that when the players ruled out. I do put them on the IR and so I was doing and then it just so happened he had a clear Jeff Wilson, who was out and he had them on the IR is literally have the same thing and then I guess he was in two leagues and one of them. He was on the iron one wasn't so maybe that was a confusion, but he was friendly. We were in business is out socially very similar to what I did. That was basically that of all the much more to it. He said in so there last one of us have been there. You're not playing by the rules you pick this person out, you should pick that person up in every single time. Members like care about so this is the first instance in which we can all care about somebody's fantasy league because it caused one baseball player to slap another months later as were going back and forth about Jeff Wilson of the 49ers. I wonder what his texts were like all weekend long. Got a call from us. By the way we want to get him on but he's an OTA he's working he's working to make sure he's not on somebody's IR this year there was more to Tommy spoke and said it's not about the accusation of cheating or what have you.

It was about a meme that Peterson sent the text group here is the link text group rather than on the Padres who he was on at the time and there is remember last year and go very well for the Padres and so now the next day everybody goes up to Peterson, who changes his demeanor from Jeff's Piccoli did like Bazooka Joe Don heirs of Irene and fall splendor, asking him what was it about a meme you said Ragan on the Padres because Tommy Pham said that's what was it really picks them off because they didn't know each other well enough of that to Peterson take to his three weightlifters lifted his is a really good team so it was kind of making fun of how they were not playing will make the playoffs with a very talented team, so no statement in the process we lighthearted in understanding everyone can take strips differently so I guess I apologize for that and looking to move past this in show up tomorrow.

No distractions and try to sting when Volga suspenders might be is back on track. I just like the died on mustache that is going on is just incredible that this is about a fantasy football dispute and because one man to stop another man and it really was about a Jeff that he sent him together to rumor weightlifting. The Padres are our guide of medicine ball and it fell on his head not downing Tommy Pham is like that's not cool man, to be steaming about it for five months and when I see you next ominous slap you like. It's the Oscars. So, clearly Tommy Pham does not have a sense of humor about the sort of stuff.

And even though we don't know each other and I run the risk of seeing him once again.

There's only one way for this show to respond. That is the top 10 NFL fantasy team names involving Tommy Pham and I need I need this. The music had a boy like material. Number 10 top 10 NFL fantasy team aims at Tommy Pham has to employ on the screen and then we have the avatar on the screen. Steve Tommy Pham family feud number 10 on the list number nine on the list here you go, you go to the profile all the signs even changed it Hall of Fame run on the wall that's great that everybody can use these two very Pro football Hall of Fame is a great fantasy number. This is great involved college football Brian Kelly's gambling. The avatars of him on the field on record as you and we've included his whole family, including Tommy. Addressing the new friends and released elements that build to fall short. Number seven top 10 and fantasy team names. This is an easy one Star Wars theme phantom menace. He's got a red light saber. There is phantom menace number six on the list right here year ago. This is a great one playing on the family again.

Fonte Adams family the Adams family and there's the voluntary and Tommy Pham with the rest of the family know full Pham's lurch. Fonte is Gomez Adams well done, okay, here you go, this one from you you Davis one DJ I like this one. I do not like green eggs and Pham Dr. Sears license in my head this job. I will not eat them in the box, offering up green eggs and Pham the better number for this is a good one to Pham to say okay I like the avatar as well Photoshop you are Jordan and Sean and Hoskins are working very well.

Here are top three year ago top three and all fantasy team aims are fantasy team names. Number three silence of the Pham's. There is Tommy Pham behind the mask very good silence of the Pham's right there.

Now you want to talk to talk to. This is good. I don't know the avatars for this one wham bam thank you Pham very good so wham bam thank you Pham very good and loving his beloved slap job, Sammy loves and then not on the top NFL fantasy team. Aim for Tommy Pham.

This is an easy one. Pham goes the dynamite. There is a local TV habits are Pham goes the dynamite. Hopefully we'll get slap you know what this is too good got leftovers left the other fantasy leagues to other way top 550 you got like you got it. We need one more we could have one more one more lesson. We got five right here is a top five other sports fantasy team name, serial numbers on the MBA. It's fantastic number for job Stock and two smoking Jeff's number three jock fans, volume 1, I felt more like one shot of Sam's number two for baseball Pham Yankees. This is be great for your free RBA fantasy teaming Pham autobio. That was the first my mind when I autobio some I know this is a lie is any real thing that really happened.

I will like what was Tommy Pham going to do Jack Peterson before Will Smith slap Chris rock. I don't know. I don't know any inspiration, but could you magic five months over the stuff any longer.

Jeff Wilson it by the way, if you're out. If you have the out designation.

You could put that person on the injured list every single time like that everywhere. What's the problem unless you don't have IR spots like, in which case you do have to drop Pham goes the dynamite might have to be my friend, Mike. That might have to be our fantasy team names So that is and how that works rich. Somehow Pham go on about how you get your fantasy.

Not only do I have a list, there will home right now. Chris likely will I been writing tile for nothing.

You know what that's for Tommy to use a lot of bridge would you let him in your fantasy league mixed I would probably send me Tommy recon a bus each other's stone. Did you know I like that happens in our group chat my league. No, because we talk bad about people's wives of moms and kids but you know that know that's what time is jock. I don't know you well now I really did make fun of 19 inches so we all want shock and looks like he's like walnuts and light shines.

The doctors each have 19 million wins. The Padres don't and he said that you felt me like I'm fond of funny him and find you slap this summer looking at the list of the list names I have written down Pham work for any of these and I do have one this Baker phantom zone can now become the bigger Pham is a very good that I like the Phantom Menace is not is a good one. I'm that's true. I don't know if it's the most ridiculous ports. The river, but it is a discussion up there, but it's deftly on the list is usually game suspension 500 K to a thing. How much of a sense of humor is good, but I think those are great fantasy payments to Ryan Brian Kelly's faint family family really good.

That is a going okay.

Let's take a break here on the rich doesn't show. I'll tell you about a moment.

I had several moments I had over the weekend that caused me to reflect on my my my age oh that I think of you enjoy Chris when we come back to Scripps polyol, dark urine or terrestrial radio outfit with everybody else on the show on this day.

On this day to get this straight. I think it's 37 years ago, my goodness. On this date. 37 years ago. It was the debut of fletch. That's awesome fletch John Cocteau's. Here's an interesting story, here's an interesting story about us on this day in 1985. So how many years he does not count occurred seven years ago fletch was released.

Gregory McDonald, the author fletch had testing approval over the film to move to people who were being cast that he rejected as fletch as fletch before he agreed to Chevy Chase, Bill Murray know Mick Jagger and Burt Reynolds of Reynolds might've been funny and then it was it was Chevy Chase that is no way Burt Reynolds with benevolence all ball bearings is an LA-based tester valve 19 85-100 bill for the vendor health and John Hamlet is fixate with Africa click John a lot in the sequel of the of the Top Gun he was here to promote that said that he's he's gonna reboot fletch the retailer and doing it on the more summarize for more like the book so things have never written a book just I had an old man. This getting older and older.

And speaking of Jagger and what a drag it is getting old. Thank you so this weekend, no fewer than three things happen and I'm wondering what's which is the one that would make you feel the oldest are the disciples committee of these are duly difficult to abandon so first ones first. I threw my back out playing pickle ball.

What would sounds and I know I'm walking into this where you said that pickle hat is really honest as I share my lunch year on my life is an open book pretty much every product I threw my back out playing pickle ball what what sounds more depressingly old and that sly got Eli where the minute I paid hang on and it was anything but a monologue walking upright but gingerly now get it okay stretching stretching my my my Israeli friend Ron walked to my bag.

You should still it still it still rough saloon was really memorizing her back okay number two to number two texted the wrong person because I didn't have my glasses on and told me to initiate all digital book Bill Belichick which is what about texting Brian Flynn know it's it's fine. It's fine with anything bad always just let me it was it was you know know it was to be me, Susie and a parent of one of Taylor's friends who was getting a whole bunch of stuff about you know the inner workings of who's picking up food like that stop but it just like at one point, Susie Britton, I realized it was when Susie responded like, oh, sorry. You know I like, what is she apologizing for and then I realized it was. I didn't have my glasses on their okay then this the one that is the one that hit me this one that hit me the hardest I think is again you know it was the bat mitzvah of a dear friend dear friends daughter this weekend on their whole families there and it was great.

You know, I saw a bunch of Sanders and Sanders age group of friends saw a bunch of these guys friends of his, when seen along a couple years because of the pandemic and everything like that used to be we were talking a football.

Whatever went up to my hey are you doing like like get away old man kind like you know dad like a dad. Likewise, dad. You know like I'm hanging out on here with my peers my age group and its social situation in how are you Mr. Eisen stuff like that.

I kinda got the vibe of like the way now I could be an MP right of my travel and be just in your head. It could be just as it could've just been like the third blow away of throw my back out playing pickle ball and texting on person cousin on my glasses on and I like what the hell happened are you dig because of the texting thing you make your font bigger on the phone. I haven't done between four that's that's that's given up as a that's a laugh that's my pants are heavier wound that sweatpants like you've given a Seinfeld you learn something, so instead I just sat there and I put out a Twitter poll based on disco. I did that with quote what would the present plate. They played get down boogie-woogie again so I retorted, yes I said like you don't finish the sentence but do you and then DO DoD or Wonderland and that was it was a triple will and I got a lot of people on reggae woman there's a lot of Stevie wonder friends out there is a lot younger when a couple people said would you bugle boy of Company B okay. What is bullying Wonderland never heard that song.

But he Wonderland is it's as if I'm not mistaken, it shacks so let's do that the name doesn't anyone who is like people to sing this throughout the day so you just can't booking a war you know that taste of you know what Michael Jackson once said what the limit on the sunshine.

Don't blame it on the moonlight don't blame it on the good times in the book. That's how you would finish sent. That's the bad labor so there's that guy's I am play he ends up there. I was elected at a bar mitzvah were no kids wanted to talk to the old man chomping on Motrin because I threw my back out playing pickle ball and left my glasses in the wrong spot texting the wrong paper pickle is literally what I did this weekend.

Pickle ball courts are what did you give me immediately. It was like limping out of their my dammit businessman of a certain age about what you take a look at videos pickle ball and you'll see very very young people crushing it this is that we talked about that was last week so I got a lot of responses people about how Michael Phelps is intuited and the tournaments in the league so that said when walking down the beach. Did you send me somebody texted me the story of somebody's living next door to the pickle ball court having a big problem with because it's nonstock noise as you can.

Every lots of wiffleball on a cattlemen is allowed know here taking tennis courts out and putting a couple guys done all over the place so I'm just swapping out one sport where I throw my back out for another which one you like better tennis or pickle ball. I enjoyed your applicable law, but it's there's a lot of reaching his Lotta Stevan and it's a lot of twisting and all that private sounds worse which was the worst on the backup plan, applicable not being able to see us text one person's eye legalizing for the ego. It's like hey old man, why talking to my ear that would probably get me a couple of those guys is nice to see them in there I was in greatest because I will run the ring out like sports when we were young McDavis the wrong impression of what old is like you know back in our days because you turn 30 and like all their careers are old you get that he tries that's not down there now just try play pickle ball and text the right person upright pickle ball Sunday for the real story behind some of wrestling's biggest moments.
