Bill Belichick asked that girl to marry him.
D
Oh, boy.
C
They're engaged. Reports are Bill Belichick and his teen girlf. Jordan. Jordan. They're gonna get married. That's incredible. A nice kill, Jordan. Let's give Jordan the credit.
John Holmberg
I'm giving Bill the credit too.
C
Look, Bill got himself. She's got an agenda, and it is flying at the speed of light. Yes, he is enjoying himself.
John Holmberg
Damn right. As he should.
C
But she has now succubused a ring out of him. What he does normally, Brett, is collect rings. Now he's given one away.
John Holmberg
That's fine. He's got enough.
C
He's got enough. He's got a lot of rings. Soon she will be, you know, the owner of probably three and a half super bowl rings. When they cut it all down, when he gets halved. Oh, my God. You know what? I'm gonna propose to you. Gotta get down on one knee here and Jordan, you're the light of my life. And I think we're off to the altar. I just wondered if you wanted to get married or not. I'm not normally this emotional. Yes. Yeah, clearly you can see that I'm the happiest man on the planet and that I want this to last forever. But in my case, that's only about seven more years. How hilarious is it going to be to see him up there with 10 groomsmen, 10 bridesman, because bride, it's gonna be bananas. Maid of honor, sir. And then her dad's got to give her away, and he's half Bill's age. Do you give your permission to this man to wed your daughter?
Brett Toledo
Sure.
C
He's awesome. Here you go, pops. It's her first wedding, so he's gonna.
John Holmberg
Have to go through everything. What do we do, Tommy? Here.
C
This is where you pour the. The different colors, stand together, and we. It's our unity candle. I'm not gonna do that. That's stupid. Go tar Heels. Well, anyway, there it is. And that is not confirmed, but rumors are that Jordan's running around telling everybody they're engaged and showing off a ring. It was all fun and games until now. Things just got weird like, ah, good for him. Just don't, you know, it's what everybody was at. Just don't fall in love with her. You know, have your fun. Don't give her your stuff. Whoops. Anyway, well, there it is. An awkward bit of information brought to you by new AC unit dot com.
John Holmberg
Apparently there's Vegas odds that the distractions cause it. To where he doesn't take the field as us.
C
Yeah, there's. There's been talk of him not even going on the field as the coach. And then Steve Belichick gets the gig, which is also people saying part of his master manipulation is to get Unc to Hiram with the caveat that if you ever left, Steve gets the job. His son. Why not just leave right away? He just lays there in bed at night. I'm so in love. These butterflies, I can't. I can't shake them. I'm gonna cry. Then I'm gonna ask her to be my wife. Is he like Alex Jones cry or is it just me? Sometimes he wakes up in the middle of the night. I'm the happiest man in the world. I have to make her my betrothed. It's just weird. Anyway, I thought it was fun and cute. Now that they're married, it's gross. My dad was right. Now it's way too far, Phil. Way too far. I'm 52, a 24 year old girl. That sounds fun, but I'm not gonna marry it. It's crazy. She's gonna want babies now. That's when it's gonna get really. If she. If he puts an infant in her new. Oh, my God. Can Tommy talk some sense into him? Is there anybody that he listens to?
John Holmberg
Gronk, you said censoring.
C
Yeah, I guess that's a bad example. Anyway, also, this Allen guy says, john, stop putting your keys in your Jeep and leaving them there. That's what's draining your battery. I went through two batteries in the last three years. I didn't realize my fob was doing what? It's doing a lot of work anyway. Well, it's awkward. They just got really awkward. UNC fans have to be sweating it. She's the Jill Biden of usc. She's going to go in there and call plays and stuff. It's time for the hot releases. Brett Toledo, you go first. It works better that way. Go ahead.

Fountain of Youth is a movie, I.

Brett Toledo
Yeah, the Jack Ryan series.
C
Didn't watch a single minute of it. I bet it was. It looked good. No interest. Why would you say that? You only call when you're in trouble. That's not true.

C
To having control of my alter ego. I wanted to be a performance artist. I could show you my characters.
John Holmberg
Out of nowhere, Pee Wee Herman popped out of me.
C
The audience ate it up and went crazy. When I first saw Paul as Pee Wee, who is this little man in this bow tie? And why is he throwing Tootsie Rolls at people? Hollywood had taken notice. I mean, how could they not? I remember thinking crazy. I watched that all day. Yeah, the Paul Herman, Peewee Herman that's out now.
John Holmberg
Or Friday.
C
Friday, I believe I will watch that because I remember Phil Hartman saying years ago that he was the most brilliant member of the Groundlings that has ever existed. And for Phil Hartman to say, I'm saying that too. Phil Hartman was a writer on Pee Wee's Big Adventure.

C
I watched a rerun of Saturday Night Live the other day on Roar, and the Jonas Brothers were on. Pretty good. No, it was years ago. It was pretty good. No, brain don't do the impressions. I thought you were having a struggle, Jonas. No, he just did Larry David and his arms went in the air. It was very awkward.
John Holmberg
So you kind of know what you're getting with Joe Jonas?
C
Yeah, yeah, he's pretty good. I'll be honest with.
John Holmberg
It was a Billy Idol and Avril Lavine teaming up for a song. This is 77.
