Jerry O’Connell’s Fantasy Preview, Camp Barstool Recap, Mt Rushmore Of N64 Games + Fyre Fest

---

Episode Overview

This episode of Pardon My Take (PMT) features the show’s annual “Fantasy Football Preview” with recurring guest Jerry O’Connell, live from Camp Barstool. The hosts (Big Cat, PFT Commenter), along with Hank, Max, Zach, and others, recount experiences from camp, discuss nostalgic N64 games in a spirited “Mount Rushmore” draft, and close with the always-hilarious Fyre Fest of the Week.

The centerpiece is Jerry O’Connell’s comedic, deeply offbeat, and genuinely obsessive approach to fantasy football. Between camp shenanigans, the crew dives into football news, draft strategies (and warnings), and delivers a ton of classic intergroup banter.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Camp Barstool Recap (03:18–14:00)

• Setting: The group has spent days at Camp Barstool, sleeping in cabins, playing games and doing classic camp activities — with plenty of drinking, friendly fights, and reminiscing.

  • Quote: “Zach is a great liar. I am officially terrified by Zach.” — PFT, (03:54)
• In-House Drama: Hank is subject to internet ire for being "anti-American" in an ongoing bit about the Super Bowl in England, which becomes fodder for intra-show teasing.

2. Preseason & Sports Headlines (07:42–16:24)

• Roster Cuts & Trades: Discussion of fringe NFL players getting traded pre-cuts (e.g., Skyy Moore, Harrison Phillips).
• Strange NFL News: Andy Reid’s office at the Chiefs was shot at last season — a story that fascinates and bemuses the crew.
  • Quote: “If somebody shoots three bullets into the Chiefs [facility], that feels targeted to me.” – PFT (09:38)
• Baseball Bits: The Cubs’ luck, Kyle Tucker’s long-standing finger injury, Aaron Judge’s disagreement with Aaron Boone, and candid takes on MVP races.

3. Camp Games & 40-and-Under Football Leagues (14:09–17:24)

• 40U Football: PFT is obsessed with amateur men's “40 and under” football leagues’ viral clips.

4. WNBA & Nostalgia (17:30–20:00)

• Emergence of Superstars: Paige Bueckers vs. Caitlin Clark is framed as the “LeBron/MJ” of the WNBA’s future.
  • Quote: “She’s gonna be better than Caitlin Clark. She’s a better winner.” – PFT (17:46)
• Standings and MVP Chatter: The group fails at WNBA standings trivia, but throws out predictions and praises star players.

5. Mount Rushmore of N64 Games Draft (25:40–44:45)

• A hilarious, heated, and nostalgia-fueled draft of Nintendo 64 games follows. Trash talk is relentless, especially between Max (Zelda truther) and other hosts.
• Consensus “S-Tier” Games:
  • GoldenEye 007, Super Smash Bros, Mario Kart, Super Mario 64, Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Mario Party, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, Donkey Kong 64, Pokémon Stadium, Star Fox 64, NFL Blitz, Banjo Kazooie.
  • Notable Bit: Max’s defense of Zelda as the “best game ever” leads to a running joke and derision.
• Best Zinger:
  • “There are two types of guys in the world: Guys that like Zelda, and guys that like Mario Kart.” – PFT (37:57)

6. Jerry O’Connell’s Fantasy Football Preview (47:43–1:39:33)

Structure:

• Opening Bits: Jerry’s Excel “proficiency,” confusing Che’s spreadsheet for an advanced program, AI-driven strategy, and tales of co-owner trauma.
• Camp Antics: Negotiating “night terrors” accusations with Hank, and a Diddy party anecdote.
• Draft Philosophy:
  • Theme: Be “open to the universe” — compare fantasy drafting to intercourse: “Don’t get fixated, just stay open to opportunities.”
  • “It’s like dating…Whoever will intercourse with me, I can intercourse with them. That’s what we’re going to do with our draft.” – Jerry (66:26)
• By Division Fantasy Team-by-Team Run Through:
  • AFC East: Miami’s “scary” vibes (“watching Dolphins games is frightening”), Buffalo’s Hard Knocks season being a turnoff, confusion over Jets and Bills skill guys.
  • Key takes: Jaden Daniels is THE QB target (projecting 5,000 pass/1,600 rush yards).
    • “Jaden Daniels is going to break all QB records this season.” – Jerry (69:40)
  • Committee Run Games: Avoid unless forced.
  • Loyalty Issues: Refuses to fall for perennial traps like Kyle Pitts or certain Rams/Patriots running backs.
  • Rookie Watch: Cedric Tillman (Browns), Bill Crosby/Merritt (Commanders), and others.
  • AI/Spreadsheet Influence: Jerry touts AI/Excel “advice” on mid-round targets; skepticism abounds.
  • Hot and Wild Takes: Fade C.J. Stroud (“will regress even more”), Chase Brown as Bengals RB, Mike Evans to break a record, “open to” a Panthers stack.
• Personal Touches: Poetic Rollback ad read for Zach (“Zacky Zacky Zacky…”), stories about parenting teens, and not swearing in front of Big Cat's kids (but not really succeeding).
• Best Moments:
  • On Kyle Pitts:
    • “Let down. Lets us down every year. I'm not falling for it again.” – Jerry (139:43)
  • On his parenting:
    • “It's the lying that makes me so angry… it's like Euphoria, some kid on Fentanyl pointing to a rave room.” (142:52)
  • On being open at camp:
    • “I'm open to the universe. I'm just an underwear guy.” (163:41)

7. Camp Barstool Antics Continue

• Fyre Fest of the Week (150:05–end):
  • Everyone shares their “minor tragedies” (puking after a 100-yard swim, being 5th designated hitter, Max’s stress as team captain, Jerry’s misadventures at “Werewolf” and in showing up late to meetings, etc.).
  • Quote: “I would like to retire from being a captain at camp.” – Max (165:12)
• Innuendo & Friendship:
  • Jerry and Zach agree to dress up as each other for Halloween.
  • Classic PMT: banter, bits about underwear, late-night campfire “Stand By Me” questions.

[PFT Commenter]

Feeling great.

[Hank]

Feel great.

[PFT Commenter]

Had some good meals, some good conversation, Drank some good beers, Smoked some good cigarettes last night.

[Big Cat]

Played some euchre.

[PFT Commenter]

Played some werewolf last night.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Off. By the way, Zach is a great liar. Of course I am terrified. I'm officially terrified by Zach. Because you got dealt the werewolf card last night and you were a ice cold killer where it was a lot of fun.

[Zach]

You just. You just tell everyone you have the villager card.

[Big Cat]

That's.

[PFT Commenter]

I don't.

[Zach]

That's the only strat.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Zach]

Yeah, that's it. That was a lot of fun.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We had one game that was like.

[Zach]

20 people in it. There's so many. It was such a good time.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, Zach is really good.

[Zach]

I heard the euchre table heating up.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, euchre was fun. Euchre's a great game. Love playing euchre. Hank, how are you feeling? Because you've been not only competing in everything, but also the eye of the Internet storm. I know this has been our week long storyline, but are you. Are you okay? You feel good?

[Hank]

I'm not worried about that at all. Oh, you're not worried about my first rodeo? People will realize when you know Hank's.

[PFT Commenter]

Been anti American for a long time.

[Hank]

I've also got birdie saying it's happening, so.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, of course it's gonna happen.

[PFT Commenter]

We've been saying that. We knew that once. Once Goodell started getting like multiple Games over in Europe, he had a semi and now he's got a raging boner for having the super bowl in England.

[Hank]

Just one of those things. It's not that serious. People. People like to get. And it's like, it's.

[Big Cat]

It's.

[Hank]

It's a football game on the football field.

[PFT Commenter]

It's not. You're doing it again. It's not just a football game.

[Hank]

It's not that serious.

[PFT Commenter]

It's a Super Bowl.

[Big Cat]

I will say for in Hank's credit, he has an incredible ability of just like, galvanizing everyone against him and. And not being bothered by it. Like, it's a great. He's a great lightning rod in these situations where, like, hey, two weeks before football starts, not a lot going on. You know, there's going to be roster cuts next week. You know, we're kind of in that last week before everyone's getting back in the grind and Hank's like, you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to shit on the United States of America on the number one sports podcast and let everyone come after me. And I appreciate. I'm saying thank you for your service.

[Hank]

You're welcome. That's not what I was doing, but you're welcome.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. Well, you are providing valuable service, which is like all the awls. Us in this room, we're kind of sick of hitting Hank. We're looking for somebody else. We're looking for football to start. We've been in camp for a while. I want to go after somebody else. I want. I want to have external villains that I can attack.

[Big Cat]

So this was just our version of a training camp.

[PFT Commenter]

This is training. Yeah.

[Big Cat]

We just had a training camp fight.

[PFT Commenter]

Exactly. Should have been here to break it up.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Hank]

Congrats.

[PFT Commenter]

Oh, yeah.

[Hank]

I wasn't really. I wasn't really sure. We've been on camp, so, like, I haven't really been on the Internet, but I assume Terry.

[PFT Commenter]

I haven't been online, so I don't know. I also assume that Terry signed on Wednesday.

[Big Cat]

Are you officially going to retire from saying that? Terry's going to. Calling your shot on Terry resigning?

[PFT Commenter]

I'm reevaluating. I'm recalibrating. We're getting the lab right now, seeing what went wrong, but I'd just like to make an adjusted prediction about Terry, if that's okay.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, material change.

[PFT Commenter]

I think he's going to sign today. I think Friday. I think this is the day it gets done. Terry is fully on board. A report came out yesterday.

[Jerry O'Connell]

This is.

[PFT Commenter]

This Is. He's looking dangerous. He's.

[Max]

You need to be punished.

[Hank]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

He's looking for $34 million.

[Hank]

There's like 12 year old.

[Big Cat]

If he doesn't sign on Friday, Max gets to spank you.

[PFT Commenter]

No, I think he's gonna sign. He's got it. He has to sign.

[Big Cat]

Bar soap in your mouth, Max.

[PFT Commenter]

I said the entire show you kept trying to say that I have a source of information. I was very clear that I do not. That my only source of information is my brain wishing that it's going to happen.

[Big Cat]

Right.

[PFT Commenter]

So once again, I really. I think he's going to sign on Friday. And then I think it's full, full steam ahead. Locked in for the season, dream season coming up for Terry. And if he doesn't sign, guess what? He's probably still going to play for the Commanders and it's going to be a contract year, so he'll probably play really well this year. And then, then we can figure out what to do after the season.

[Big Cat]

You need to be punished. You've been a bad boy. No dessert tonight.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I kind of got hot.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, it was.

[PFT Commenter]

That was hot. Max.

[Big Cat]

He was, he was angry. That was just. Yeah, no tv.

[Max]

I'm sick of this game. I'm sick of this game.

[PFT Commenter]

Whatever, Max.

[Big Cat]

We also are in that fun time where guys get traded right before cuts. So you can tell yourself, oh, wow, how did he get traded? It's like, well, he probably was going to get cut. We saw Sky Moore got traded to the 49ers. What was the compensation was? Six round pick?

[PFT Commenter]

It was. Yeah. Sixth or seventh.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, these are, these are. These are potentially guys who might get cut who are like, hey, we could maybe find someone right before we cut them to trade them. Also, Harrison Phillips got traded to the Jets. It's actually a nice, nice trade for the Jets. More defensive line depth. I think the Vikings had some guys that they liked behind him, but yeah, this is that season.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, I saw Josh Allen is not playing tonight. It's the only. I think Schefter said it was the only preseason game that he's not playing in, but did he play against the Bears?

[Big Cat]

He did not.

[PFT Commenter]

So what is Schefter talking about?

[Big Cat]

Scheffer. Crazy. Schefter's crazy.

[PFT Commenter]

That is wild also.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, Schefter's crazy. He's losing his mind.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. Marking the first time in his NFL career that Alan will not play. Oh. In the entire preseason. Yeah. Okay.

[Big Cat]

And that's. That game's also Saturday. Yeah. So I guess there's the preseason will wrap up on Saturday night. We'll be done.

[PFT Commenter]

You see the. The news report that Andy Reid had his office shot up last year?

[Big Cat]

What was that?

[PFT Commenter]

So 2024. So it wasn't even this May. It was last May. They fired three. Three bullets into the chief's facility. One went into a window into the office where Andy Reid was sitting. Hit the wall 15ft away.

[Big Cat]

And did they find out?

[PFT Commenter]

No, it's still on the loose.

[Big Cat]

That's crazy.

[PFT Commenter]

I don't know.

[Big Cat]

That's crazy.

[PFT Commenter]

They kept it quiet.

[Hank]

That's probably embarrassed they got that close.

[Big Cat]

Was Florio the one who found it?

[PFT Commenter]

No, Florio didn't find it. He did report. He. He. He wrote an article about the report, and then the guy that wrote the report was like, hey, why are you passing this off as your own work? And then they got into a big back and forth.

[Big Cat]

Oh, I love that.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

Again, preseason fights.

[PFT Commenter]

This is preseason?

[Big Cat]

Yeah. These are training camp fights.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. So I don't know. I. Somebody. They said it didn't seem like it was targeted. If somebody shoots three bullets into the Chiefs, that feels targeted to me.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Like, not a very accurate targeting, but a targeting nonetheless.

[Big Cat]

Going right over your head. Yeah. And he was in the office at the time.

[PFT Commenter]

He was in the office. It hit the wall 15ft away from him.

[Big Cat]

That's insane.

[Zach]

Drive bys of the Chiefs.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Philly.

[Zach]

Doesn't make any sense.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What did Annie read?

[PFT Commenter]

Chiefsaholic, maybe.

[Big Cat]

Oh, was he bitter?

[PFT Commenter]

Was he bitter from being iced out?

[Big Cat]

Don't snitch.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Zach]

You think he sent the guy?

[PFT Commenter]

I think Chiefs of Hawk might have been out at that time.

[Big Cat]

I don't want to put more crimes on Chiefs of Hulks.

[PFT Commenter]

We don't.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Yeah. Okay. What else we got going on? I saw their. I'll say real quick that we're recording this Thursday morning because PFT's got pop punk in Jersey on Friday night.

[PFT Commenter]

Martell's Tiki Bar.

[Hank]

Friday day.

[PFT Commenter]

Friday, 3pm so the barstool beach house.

[Big Cat]

This could look stupid in retrospect. The Cubs might be back.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. So what? They won. Three out of four.

[Big Cat]

They won. They won. Well, they have the fifth game today, so that's where this could look really stupid. I'm guaranteeing that it will almost definitely look stupid.

[PFT Commenter]

But yeah, five is pretty good.

[Big Cat]

They. No, you needed to win four out of five because there were nine games they won. They did. I hope they win.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, they won. Terry's on the. On the Commanders for another few years. It's a good day for Part of my team.

[Big Cat]

But we also had the weird Kyle Tucker news that he's had a fractured finger for a month and a half, which I think everyone knew, but no one reported. And the Cubs finally reported it. So I don't really know what's going on there. Kind of weird. He's in a contract year. Yeah. That what they Cubs should do is put him on the IL and be like, hey, here's three years, $140 million and give him a two year opt out after, you know, after the second year and be like, stop thinking about the contract. Go play ball.

[PFT Commenter]

I like that.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Because I mean, it's got to, it's got to suck for Kyle Tucker to have. He hasn't hit a home run in a month and a half. He has basically. He's just basically become Jason Hayward at the plate, where he just grounds out to the right side.

[PFT Commenter]

It's clearly about the finger.

[Big Cat]

It's the finger and also the fact that he's in a contract year. Take away that, that issue and be like, hey, get healthy and here's your money and you don't have to worry about it. And then in two years, when you're 30 years old, you can, you can be a free agent again if you want.

[PFT Commenter]

That would be a smart thing to do if you were the Cubs.

[Big Cat]

We also had Aaron Judge going after or base correcting Aaron Boone because apparently Aaron Boone said, Aaron Judge is not going to throw again this year, I think. And Aaron Judge on. Manager Aaron Boone said, I don't know why he said that. He hasn't seen me throw the past two weeks. I'm pretty confident I'll get back to that. Feels like the Yankees got some bad vibes going on. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

I'd say they have bad vibes all season.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. And Kyle Schwerber have good vibes. Kyle Schwerber should be MVP because Shohei got rocked and he got hit by a line drive.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Max]

And Schwerber had another homer and Schwarber.

[Big Cat]

Hit another home run.

[PFT Commenter]

Did Shohei like apologize for getting hit?

[Big Cat]

Let's see.

[PFT Commenter]

I think he called the start regrettable.

[Big Cat]

I think. Yeah. So it was, it was Ohtani Rock struck by liner in regrettable start.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

So against the Rockies.

[PFT Commenter]

Very sorry about getting hit by that.

[Big Cat]

He got hit by a pitch off the thigh and he gave up 5. 5 runs against the Rockies. Should actually eliminate you. It's the. Yeah, he got. He hit into a triple play. Five runs against the Rockies. Those two things should eliminate you from the mvp.

[PFT Commenter]

Agreed. It's like when. The last year when the Ravens lost to the Raiders.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

We should have known at that point. Okay. No matter what they do for the rest of the season, don't take them for real in the playoffs.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

Did Lamar Jackson get hurt yesterday?

[PFT Commenter]

Kind of. He hurt his wrist, hand, and then he left practice, and then the Ravens said he's fine.

[Big Cat]

Okay, that's so not confusing at all.

[PFT Commenter]

Lamar Jackson, fine.

[Big Cat]

This is. This is the season. Remember the old. I don't think this happens anymore because people are a little smarter, but this is right around when we would get the report, like, Drew Brees got hit by a car and broke both his legs right before the season. You know Matt Ryan.

[PFT Commenter]

Yep.

[Big Cat]

An Audi hit Matt. Old lady in the Audi hit Matt Ryan. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

I love.

[Big Cat]

Both his legs are fractured.

[PFT Commenter]

I love the people that would just stir that up once a year with a different quarterback.

[Big Cat]

But Lamar Jackson is okay?

[PFT Commenter]

Well, he's fine. So I don't know if. If the Ravens said that because he's healthy or if it was, like, somebody in their band that's attracted to him, but he. He's fine. He's fine.

[Big Cat]

He's fine.

[PFT Commenter]

He's a fine man.

[Big Cat]

He's fine.

[PFT Commenter]

He's fine as hell.

[Big Cat]

Hell, yeah. Okay. Did you have something else before? Something about the under 40?

[PFT Commenter]

Oh, yeah. Have you guys been watching the. The 40U under 40 football leagues, all the clips going around?

[Big Cat]

I've seen the clips.

[PFT Commenter]

I love these guys. These guys love football. They're all, you know, they got gray in their beards, they're crying before games during the national anthem. They're injuring each other. They're taking it super seriously. They just love playing football. And I'm. I'm obsessed with watching the clips. I hope that there's one in the Chicago area that we can go see or. Or at least like, adopt as our 40U team. Because I. I love anything that gets these dudes so pumped up, so physical about a game that they will definitely 100 get injured in at some point. My idea was maybe as a Mount Rushmore punishment, one of us has to try out or play for a 40U football team.

[Big Cat]

That would hurt. But we're not. We're not under 40.

[PFT Commenter]

40 and under. We are 40. This is the last year of eligibility.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. I mean, I would get. I would. I can barely. We've been at camp. We've done camp games, and my body's broken.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, that is true. I'm feeling very, very sore right now.

[Big Cat]

Very sore. I love these guys. I I would love. I would love to watch a documentary about them not even playing. Just going to work on Mondays. I also love some of their like uniform choices. There'll be guys in like a Jaguars jersey in a. In Saints pants and just random combinations.

[PFT Commenter]

And they've got like the swagged out visors too. Yeah, definitely went out and customized their shit, but it's all mismatched.

[Hank]

And it's also the wives call them. Call them definitely call themselves like wags.

[PFT Commenter]

Oh yeah, they're all wags. For the, for the 40U football team.

[Big Cat]

It's also great, a great reminder just how fast professional athletes are. Because when you watch one of these games you're like why is the. Why is my. Is my phone broken? Am I watching it in half speed? What's going on right now?

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, it's great. I played one time in a rugby tournament in Lake Placid and there was a 70 and under division of rugby and it was like the scariest I've ever watched. It's like every tackle this guy's going to break a hip. Yeah, it was, it was violent.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Zach]

You could get left with just lifelong injuries. 140U game.

[PFT Commenter]

I don't know if that's like.

[Zach]

There's real life repercussions there. I don't know about that. Yeah, no, I don't think we should try out.

[PFT Commenter]

What about kicker?

[Zach]

I think even the. You could still get smoked being the kicker.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I don't know.

[PFT Commenter]

I think I kick her. You're fine.

[Big Cat]

You could kick.

[Max]

He could kick it.

[PFT Commenter]

Come on.

[Hank]

That's not football.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I think anything plays toward you.

[Max]

Kicker. Kickers.

[PFT Commenter]

Kickers, not football. Stop it.

[Hank]

That's not.

[PFT Commenter]

Stop it.

[Big Cat]

Hank, you should love the K. You're an English.

[Hank]

Yeah, I know that's different sport.

[Big Cat]

Oh, you're. I. I see what you're saying. You're right because PFT was gonna then just try out to kick.

[PFT Commenter]

No, I mean I would. I would try out.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, he was. I would try the thing he loves.

[PFT Commenter]

No, I would try out to be a kicker. Slash.

[Big Cat]

So I would be slash like Mount Rushmore punishment. Someone has to. Someone has to play in. In a band.

[PFT Commenter]

Someone's got.

[Hank]

Someone's got a fly simulator but like a real life flight to. You gotta do a New Zealand a.

[PFT Commenter]

60 hour flight simulator stream.

[Big Cat]

Way to sniff that out, Hank. My brain is moving a little slow this morning.

[PFT Commenter]

No, I wouldn't try out as a kicker. I would try. I. It would be. I'd be Swiss army knife. I'd be a gadget guy be kicker slash punter.

[Big Cat]

Backup kicker. Okay. What other. Any other sports stories?

[PFT Commenter]

We got it. We got a budding rivalry right now going.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

We have have the start of a MJ LeBron. Love it in the WNBA.

[Big Cat]

Yes.

[PFT Commenter]

Paige Bucher's. I said when she was a senior or her last year. UConn. She's gonna be better than Caitlin Clark.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Paige Buckets.

[PFT Commenter]

Paige buckets just scored 44 points. She. She made all four of her three pointers. She's gonna break all of Caitlin Clark's rookie records. And I think she's a better team player than Caitlin Clark. I think that she's a better winner than Caitlin Clark.

[Big Cat]

She has won a title.

[PFT Commenter]

She has won a title. I think she makes her teammates better than Caitlin Clark necessarily does. And yeah, I'm excited to see the future of the wnba. If this is going to be like. It's like Magic versus Bird. If they're both Bird.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Great. Yeah. Bird and more Bird.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

We got two. Double Bird. Super Bird.

[Big Cat]

Let's do. Real quick. Why don't you guys tell me who you think is in the top of the standings in the wnba. Give me how many can you get? Right. Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

New York.

[Hank]

Vegas.

[PFT Commenter]

Liberty.

[Big Cat]

This is. All right, we'll start with.

[PFT Commenter]

Aces.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[Hank]

Four Aces.

[PFT Commenter]

Four aces, Hank.

[Big Cat]

Eastern Conference.

[PFT Commenter]

New York Liberty.

[Big Cat]

Yes.

[PFT Commenter]

Let's go.

[Big Cat]

And second.

[PFT Commenter]

Thomas Peters. Who's second in the East?

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

I. I don't know.

[Hank]

Indiana.

[Big Cat]

No, they're third. Atlanta Dream. Indiana is. Yeah. 39. Sophie Cunningham's out for the year.

[PFT Commenter]

I saw.

[Big Cat]

Who's first in the West?

[Hank]

Vegas.

[PFT Commenter]

It's gotta be the Aces.

[Big Cat]

It's not. It's the Minnesota Links. Oh, okay.

[Hank]

Yeah, they're good.

[PFT Commenter]

Hank, you love the links.

[Big Cat]

They have a seven game lead on Mercury and the Aces.

[Hank]

Yeah, they have the mvp, right?

[Big Cat]

Who should the mvp? Should have been.

[Hank]

Should have been. That's her.

[PFT Commenter]

She is her.

[Hank]

Is it a jai?

[Big Cat]

Asia Wilson.

[Hank]

Isn't she on the Links?

[Big Cat]

I believe so. Are we nailing this?

[PFT Commenter]

I don't know. All I'm saying is it's going to be different league next year. Once Paige gets a. A year of experience under a belt and change the game.

[Big Cat]

I don't think we nailed that, Hank. I don't think we nailed that. Vegas, Sean.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Vegas.

[Big Cat]

I knew that's.

[Hank]

I knew that's why I kept saying Vegas.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Hank]

I got Vegas on my mind.

[Jerry O'Connell]

The Links have Nafisa.

[Big Cat]

Oh, yeah. Nafisa.

[PFT Commenter]

She's good.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Yeah. That was her WNBA minute.

[PFT Commenter]

I've heard that she's good.

[Big Cat]

Oh, by the way, Tommy Fleetwood.

[PFT Commenter]

Tommy. Happy Tommy Fleetwood Day to all who celebrate.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, Rob with two Bs. Thank you so much for the. For the text. We all bet Tommy Fleetwood, but by.

[PFT Commenter]

The time this comes out, we have no idea. But it is Thursday, so Tommy Fleetwood's probably going to be. He's going to be fighting for the lead.

[Big Cat]

Yes.

[PFT Commenter]

After today's round.

[Big Cat]

Yes.

[PFT Commenter]

And I think he said, didn't somebody ask him like, hey, how are you gearing up for this tournament? And he was like, I do understand the irony if. If I win the Tour Championship and I haven't won on tour until this very point, that's.

[Big Cat]

It's gotta happen. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

You'll be trying me hardest.

[Big Cat]

Trying me hardest, Tommy. Guys, imagine if we. Imagine if we hit this.

[PFT Commenter]

I think we can.

[Big Cat]

I think we can too. Until Sunday when he chokes and then we say, how did this happen? How did we lose this? Oh, yeah. He chokes.

[Max]

No hedge.

[PFT Commenter]

No, no hedge.

[Big Cat]

Absolutely no hedge.

[Max]

I'm just making sure that we're all in lockstep there.

[Big Cat]

Absolutely no hedge. Oh, also, shout out Tyson Bajan. He signed a. He had a really cool press conference where he was crying. He had a two year, ten million dollar extension and he basically was like, I want to be a starter, but I also know Ben Johnson's the man. So.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, he said. I didn't know this about him. He grew up without running water.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. West Virginia. Right.

[PFT Commenter]

That's crazy.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. And he went to a Division 2 school. Very cool success story in the NFL.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. I like him a lot. Seems like a good dude. My only thing with him is, is if he wants a 15 year career, ideally he would have fewer arm tattoos.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. But you never know where the league's headed.

[PFT Commenter]

That's true.

[Big Cat]

We could be in that direction.

[PFT Commenter]

Like if you're looking for a Chase Daniel type, a guy that's going to stick around, he's just. You usually look for like a blank canvas that can hold a clipboard on the sideline. He's like almost too dynamic.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. The last thing I had was Cracker Barrel change their logo. I hate it. I hate it.

[PFT Commenter]

That's my fire fest. But yeah.

[Big Cat]

Oh, okay.

[PFT Commenter]

No, let's talk about it. Let's talk. Because I grew up a massive fan of Cracker Barrel. I was obsessed with going to Cracker Barrels as a kid. Love their country fried steak. Love their gravy.

[Max]

Chicken and dump.

[Big Cat]

The chicken and dumplings.

[Hank]

Tea game.

[PFT Commenter]

The tea game. Which they've also changed.

[Big Cat]

What?

[PFT Commenter]

So what this, this Is per Coach Doug's.

[Hank]

Yeah, Coach.

[Big Cat]

He is a Cracker Barrel.

[Hank]

He's on the beach.

[PFT Commenter]

This.

[Big Cat]

That's our expert.

[PFT Commenter]

He was.

[Big Cat]

He.

[PFT Commenter]

I actually think he was the very first person in America to discover the rebrand because he's been.

[Hank]

Yeah, he's been.

[PFT Commenter]

He's the first person in Cracker Barrel that day.

[Hank]

Yeah, he's been on the front line.

[Big Cat]

Absolutely.

[PFT Commenter]

And I'm trying to figure out. I'm trying to find the. The photo because he had a picture of the tea game and the tea game at Cracker Barrel. It's the little triangle piece of wood with the holes for the tees, and you skip. You jump the tees. And it always said, like, if you live. If you leave more than three, you're just playing egg. No. Ray. Moose. And the pussification of America. They change the ignore a moose part to, like, try better next time or something like that. Yeah, I'm trying to. I'm trying to pull up the photo right here.

[Big Cat]

This is.

[PFT Commenter]

It also could have been photoshopped. I might have gotten got. But I saw it and I was shocked.

[Big Cat]

This is.

[PFT Commenter]

Here we go. Leave three or more. No reason to be embarrassed. Try again.

[Big Cat]

Oh, my.

[Hank]

There is a reason to be embarrassed. That was the whole point.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Leave only one. You're a genius. Leave two. Rock in the chair, but not the game. Leave three or more. No reason to be embarrassed. Try again. This is. This is why China is kicking her ass. The Cracker Barrels in China have everything still.

[Big Cat]

And they haven't rebranded their logo.

[PFT Commenter]

They haven't. They still got The Duck Dynasty DVDs right at the checkout.

[Big Cat]

Is it.

[PFT Commenter]

Is it is. And the. The logo of Cracker Barrel is. It's the man on the chair.

[Big Cat]

That's what it is.

[PFT Commenter]

The name Cracker Barrel doesn't really do that much for me. The man on the chair makes me hungry.

[Big Cat]

Correct. Correct. By the way, I. Breaking moves. I was just alerted to this. January 24, 2026, the Chicago Bulls are retiring Derrick Rose's numbers into the United center rafters. Now, you might be confused because there was Derrick Rose night last year.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, I do remember that.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. You. What? Yeah, the. Yeah, Jerry Reinsdorf is just double dipping. Very smart.

[PFT Commenter]

He's doing.

[Big Cat]

We're just doing it all.

[PFT Commenter]

You get your night, and then you get your retirement night.

[Big Cat]

They got the night, and then they got the retirement night. God damn it.

[PFT Commenter]

I love that.

[Big Cat]

They have no shame. Okay, let's get to our Mount Rushmore before we do that. Mountain Dew. We love Mountain Dew. That's why we're here. Shout out Mountain Dew. Nothing says summer like softball, lake games, kayaking, the blob that we've been jumping off of, tennis, playing some werewolf, and we've. Nothing says summer like Mountain Dew. Nothing goes better with all of these activities, softball specifically and hanging with your friends, than refreshing, citrusy kick of Mountain Dew. We've had an absolute blast here at Camp Barstool. So, so much fun. Thank you to Mountain Dew for bringing us out here every single year. And we can't wait to do it again next year. I'm gonna crack one open right now. Yep. Yeah. The OG Cans. Nostalgia in a can. We're doing kind of nostalgia week with our Mount Rushmore of N64 games. The Mountain is calling experience. Refreshing citrus kick of Mountain Dew. Grab one today. Mountain Dew. Thank you to Mountain Dew. Go get one right now. Hold on to summer, hold on to friendship. Hold on to camp. Hold on to the vibes. Mountain Dew. Here comes a sip. 10 out of 10. Okay. Mount Rushmore. So it's Zach and I have 45. Max and memes have 41. PFT and Hank have 40. Zach. Turns out putting divorced parents on a graphic probably isn't great for people's trauma, but.

[Max]

Craziest comeback in Rushmore history.

[PFT Commenter]

I've never seen that before. We were down bots. We were down by, like, eight or nine.

[Hank]

I looked at it, like, 10 minutes after we were getting smoked, and then.

[Max]

I was like, never happened. Never happens.

[Hank]

Maybe bots.

[PFT Commenter]

I don't know.

[Big Cat]

Max, are you. Are you throwing an appeal?

[Max]

No, I mean, there's no appeal.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Max]

It was a crazy rush.

[Hank]

I think me and Pft, like, if we're not the ones that are going.

[PFT Commenter]

To figure out bots, I think we have the. The people that wake up late.

[Big Cat]

That's.

[PFT Commenter]

Vote for us.

[Big Cat]

Exactly. What someone.

[Hank]

You've been playing too much figure.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, that's easy to be like, oh, yeah. Us two guys, we would never figure out bots.

[Hank]

We would never bought.

[Big Cat]

I'm a villager. All right, so, yeah, we're doing a Little Nostalgia Week. Mount Rushmore of N64 games. We are up first. I was. I was laying in my bunk.

[Hank]

I feel like this one is. I feel you guys are gonna have. You guys aren't very opposite sides of the. The console.

[Big Cat]

What do you mean?

[Hank]

Like, you played N64 when it was a real thing? Zach.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, he played.

[Zach]

I see where you come from, but.

[Hank]

It had to have been different games. Like.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, Memes also kind of in a similar spot. Meme just trashed us when. When he didn't realize I was in the room. He's like, zach and Big Cat. Having the first pick is terrible.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I do.

[Big Cat]

I do think one. It's like, I just like, hey, Memes, I'm here.

[PFT Commenter]

I do think the first pick is bad for that.

[Big Cat]

It's very.

[PFT Commenter]

There's, like, it's deep draft.

[Big Cat]

It's. It's deep, but it's like, tier one isn't as many as you think.

[PFT Commenter]

You're saying there are, like, five tier one games?

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And then below that.

[Big Cat]

Okay, I guess we'll find out. It's a very subjective one past that.

[PFT Commenter]

Okay.

[Big Cat]

Okay. All right, well, we'll go with my 1 1. Our 11 GoldenEye.

[PFT Commenter]

Good pick.

[Big Cat]

1 1. I mean, the first time you played, like, multiplayer kill games.

[Zach]

Yes.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You know, great game that.

[Big Cat]

That's become the. The world we live in.

[Zach]

It is. What a great world to be in.

[Big Cat]

I also like playing the. The missions, like, when you first. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Goldeneye was just a great game, top to bottom. Change the way people played video games.

[Hank]

What I actually do Whatever you want. Whatever you want.

[Big Cat]

What was wrong?

[Max]

No, I thought Hank was gonna say something. Anti goldeneye.

[Hank]

No, no, no, no.

[Big Cat]

I think these first.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, first.

[Max]

The first couple.

[Big Cat]

The first two rounds are gonna be tough to argue with.

[PFT Commenter]

We got any odd jobs here?

[Big Cat]

No. That if you're an odd job, you're a piece of.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

No, wait. Odd job was the small guy. Small guy. Yeah. Jaws. Jaws.

[PFT Commenter]

That was the punishment.

[Big Cat]

Yes.

[PFT Commenter]

You got to play with Jaws next. Okay, for our first pick, Hank, you. I like the one that you highlighted, too.

[Hank]

I. I really don't think it matters. Between that and a couple other ones.

[PFT Commenter]

Okay. We're gonna go with Super Smash Brothers.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Great pick.

[Big Cat]

Good pick.

[PFT Commenter]

Loved it. You can play with any character.

[Big Cat]

Good pick.

[Hank]

Also, great missions, too, like trying to unlock the other characters. Beat the hand. Captain Punch. Falcon Punch.

[Max]

We are gonna go Zelda, Ocarina of Time.

[Big Cat]

Go on pfc.

[PFT Commenter]

I mean, I. I guess widely known.

[Max]

As, like, the best game.

[PFT Commenter]

I don't care.

[Big Cat]

I, I.

[PFT Commenter]

That game's cool if you like getting lost in the forest and, like, finding a magic flute.

[Big Cat]

Hand up. I was never a Zelda guy. Yeah.

[Max]

Oh, I was a massive Zelda.

[PFT Commenter]

I know. And I. I understand.

[Big Cat]

I have.

[Max]

I have Zelda on my switch.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

I understand. It's an important video game. You like it?

[Big Cat]

I'm.

[PFT Commenter]

I'm happy for you.

[Max]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

How's that? Oh, I'm gonna be a little wizard. I'm gonna Run around Max. He needs to.

[PFT Commenter]

It's gon.

[Max]

You're one. This makes so much sense. He's upset. He's upset. You're upset. You're upset about Terry.

[PFT Commenter]

Look how many.

[Max]

You're upset about Terry. You've been saying that he's going to be signing today for the past six weeks, and he's.

[Jerry O'Connell]

He may.

[Max]

He may never sign. He may never sign. And the Commanders may go back to the basement of the nfc.

[Big Cat]

Oh, no.

[PFT Commenter]

I acquired six gyms.

[Max]

Jaden Daniels, list of quarterbacks that he beat last year were a bunch of G league guys, and all of a sudden.

[Big Cat]

Oh, damn.

[PFT Commenter]

Well, now we're getting serious. It's not true.

[Max]

It is.

[Big Cat]

Didn't he beat. Did he beat.

[Max]

He beat Jared Goff in the playoffs.

[PFT Commenter]

He beat the Eagles.

[Big Cat]

He beat the Eagles. He beat Baker Mayfield.

[Jerry O'Connell]

He beat Kenny Pickett.

[PFT Commenter]

Baker Mayfield.

[Big Cat]

No. Playoffs. No.

[PFT Commenter]

Yes, he did.

[Max]

I'll show you. I'll show you the list of.

[PFT Commenter]

Well, Baker Mayfield's.

[Big Cat]

Read him. Let's go. Just read him.

[Max]

It was a tweet that I saw a while.

[PFT Commenter]

Beat Jared Goff in the playoffs.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Max]

Absolutely. Hobble defense.

[Big Cat]

Give us the list.

[PFT Commenter]

You just talked about quarterbacks, though.

[Max]

Yeah, yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Not defense. You got to make up your mind, Max, because this is.

[Max]

I don't have this tweet off from a.

[Big Cat]

A neutral party here. I would ag. I agree with Max's first point that PFT might be acting out a little bit about Terry, but then I think it's. Max is lashing out because he's scared.

[PFT Commenter]

Of Jaden and he's also kind of for girls.

[Big Cat]

No, you guys are. Did you play Zelda with your Stanley Cup?

[Max]

You guys are insane. No, you guys just don't know ball.

[Zach]

Don't let them shame your quiver, Max.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, no, I. I. Honestly, Zelda's like, in that category of Star wars for me, where it's like, I. I know. I know people love it, and I'm sure it's really fun. I just never liked it. I never played it.

[Hank]

I talked about the, like, the things that make your friend's house fun. Like, I didn't really have the video games. I never had 64 at my house. My friend, my neighbor did, so I would just go over his house and play all the four player games. Play like a. The single player.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

I got a question for you. Is Joe Burrow a good quarterback? Is he good?

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Max]

No, Joe Burrow was the one on the list.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, Joe Burrow was the one. Is. Is. Is a good quarterback. So Bengals, 32nd ranked defense last year. Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

We're again, the topic was quarterbacks.

[Max]

I can't find this tweet. It was so long ago. I wasn't ready. I wasn't ready for this argument today. But then you started.

[Big Cat]

Now you need to be punished.

[PFT Commenter]

It means if we want to talk about defense, our defense sucked last year.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

We had a bad defense.

[Hank]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

32Nd ranked.

[PFT Commenter]

We had a very bad defense.

[Big Cat]

32Nd ranked. Okay. Bad. That's all right. You beat a bad defense. I'm with Max here.

[PFT Commenter]

We were talking about.

[Big Cat]

Are we.

[PFT Commenter]

Is the discussion, did he beat a good defense last year or did he beat a good quarterback last year? Did. Or is the conversation. Did he beat a good quarterback with a great defense?

[Big Cat]

Who cares? Okay. Point. Pft on that argument.

[PFT Commenter]

Thank you.

[Max]

We're going to go with Super Mario 64.

[Big Cat]

Okay. Loved it.

[PFT Commenter]

Wow. We are going to go.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Obviously. Mario Kart.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Mario Kart. Cannot believe that you took Super Mario over Mario.

[Hank]

The two games we have.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, four.

[Zach]

He's gonna go.

[Hank]

I have probably played like 100 to 200 to 300 times more than every other video game in my life. Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros. That's all I played.

[Max]

I, I. This is a subject. I played Super Mario. And Zelda.

[Big Cat]

And Zelda.

[Hank]

We can tell.

[Big Cat]

Mm. This is getting contentious. I didn't think the N64 trap would get content. I wasn't ready for them.

[Max]

I mean, it's, like, known as being the best game.

[PFT Commenter]

I know. I know.

[Big Cat]

It is. We're really happy for you.

[PFT Commenter]

Didn't like it.

[Big Cat]

Zach, Our next pick is. Go ahead.

[Zach]

We would like to take Mario Party.

[Big Cat]

Mario Party is our next pick.

[Hank]

Not that we're gonna take another one, but did you have a favorite?

[Big Cat]

It. I think the fur. I don't, I don't know which one.

[Hank]

I like Two.

[PFT Commenter]

They're all good.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Zach]

I've only played one.

[Big Cat]

I think two is. What's the one we were playing Mario Party two. Yeah, that's, that's, that's my favorite. No, I mean, I remember, like, when we, when we got. When did we.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We gotta do that again.

[Hank]

That was the 24 hour stream.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. It was like, holy nostalgia. I'm playing this game again. This is so much fun. We should start playing again. We should do a Mario Party stream. Okay. Well, now what do we do?

[Zach]

What do you think about 12 or six?

[Big Cat]

12?

[PFT Commenter]

I feel like three or six. Maybe like nine.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, I like six. Okay. Was still good. All right, we'll do Tony Hawk's Pro Skater. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Good pick. Yeah, that. Great pick.

[PFT Commenter]

Had that on the list.

[Big Cat]

Stay strong. Don't break.

[Zach]

Don't break. Stay strong.

[Big Cat]

These are good games.

[PFT Commenter]

They're great games.

[Big Cat]

Except Zelda.

[PFT Commenter]

Not so good.

[Big Cat]

What did. What the. The what did, like, Harvard say it was the best game ever? Max, what did you.

[Max]

I say it's the best game ever.

[Big Cat]

You're like. And other. Widely known as the greatest.

[Max]

Back me up, Zelda.

[Big Cat]

Don't.

[Max]

As a gamer background I.

[Zach]

So personally, I'm not good if the game's too open just because I'll get a little lost.

[Big Cat]

Zach is so good at disagreeing.

[Zach]

I see the appeal. I definitely see the appeal. Have you ever played Zelda on the Wii as well? There's a bow and arrow attachment.

[Jerry O'Connell]

If you have.

[Zach]

You kept playing Zelda memes.

[Big Cat]

You're trying. Yes. So what if you never played? I played all these games.

[Max]

Yeah. I have it on the switch.

[Big Cat]

You're gonna try. You're gonna try to dock. Zelda is a good game.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Is it.

[Zach]

Is it a great game, though?

[Big Cat]

It's a great game.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Good or great?

[Hank]

A lot of Zelda memes.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Zelda's great game. Really. Played a lot of Zelda. Play.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Play tons of Zelda.

[Big Cat]

Tell us your favorite part about Zelda. Zelda, which switches from. I don't think you played Zelda. Yeah. Break it. Wait.

[PFT Commenter]

Isn't Zelda.

[Max]

Zelda is not the character.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

You just tried to accuse him of not playing games.

[PFT Commenter]

It's a little boy named Think Link is a girl. I think Link's a boy, Max.

[Max]

Link is a boy.

[Big Cat]

Okay. I. I think Link is.

[Zach]

I'm not a Zelda guy. Huge Zelda. I thought Link was a woman.

[Hank]

I think in Super Smash Bros, if you Samus shock her.

[Max]

Link is not a woman.

[PFT Commenter]

You can see who's the bad guy in Zelda.

[Max]

There's. There's a ton, by the way.

[Big Cat]

More breaking moves. More breaking move. Fasoli just flew his drone into the water. No way. That's bad, huh? That's really bad.

[Hank]

Yeah. We have a relay that we set up pretty much fully for the drone.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Good job. Solely. Why was he droning right now? Just doing my jam.

[PFT Commenter]

Doing some test flights.

[Big Cat]

Okay. You guys have your pick. Yep.

[PFT Commenter]

Hank, I'm thinking about going with the first one on our list, but I could be talked out of it if you have one that you feel strongly about.

[Hank]

I like that.

[PFT Commenter]

All right, we'll go with Donkey Kong.

[Big Cat]

64.

[Hank]

You are Donkey Kong, dude.

[Max]

Donkey Kong is strong as. So.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, that's why he's awesome. Great game. Thank you.

[Hank]

You literally were doing Donkey Kong in the synchronized swimming yesterday. That was you and water.

[Max]

Donkey Kong is known as being the strongest of. Of all Poke.

[Hank]

What are.

[PFT Commenter]

Where is this?

[Hank]

Like, what books are you reading about? All these video games and, like, characters.

[Big Cat]

You're like.

[PFT Commenter]

Wait, wait, did Max just say that Donkey Kong was a Pokemon?

[Jerry O'Connell]

He definitely said that. Yes, we.

[Max]

Maybe.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[Max]

That's our next pick. We're going to go Pokemon Stadium.

[Big Cat]

Wait, but what. What?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Don't you have to say what you.

[Big Cat]

Don'T like about Donkey Kong? Wrong.

[Max]

I was just gonna say, literally, no matter what they're picking.

[Big Cat]

Do you like it?

[Max]

I never played it, but I like this.

[Big Cat]

This is what? Jump over barrel. This is one of those drafts where I didn't think it was gonna have a lot to it, but it has a lot to it.

[PFT Commenter]

Max, why didn't you do that, the fart noise when I took Mario Kart?

[Max]

Because I played Mario Kart, and I like Mario Kart.

[PFT Commenter]

But you just said that you were gonna do the fart noise no matter what I picked.

[Max]

Well, I got.

[PFT Commenter]

I don't know.

[Max]

I thought about it. Then who cares? Shut the up.

[Zach]

Would you say you like Mario Kart more than Zelda, Max?

[Max]

Not even close.

[Big Cat]

Just curious.

[Max]

I.

[Big Cat]

Actually. That says a lot. I don't.

[Max]

Yeah, actually, it. I'll say it. You guys aren't gonna say it. We're not. We'll also say for honorable mention, there.

[PFT Commenter]

Are two kinds of guys in the world. Guys that like Zelda. Guys like Mario Kart.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Guys like Vagina. All right, last pick. Banjo Kazooie. Oh, okay. I played a hundred hours of this game.

[Hank]

I. I didn't want to say this with. We actually did it on the stream. We. We brought it back. I. Banjo Tui is, like, the. The most fun game of all time. Like, I didn't really play a lot.

[Big Cat]

I played Crash Bandicoot, the original.

[Hank]

That was PS2, I think.

[Max]

But I didn't play this game.

[Hank]

That's Banjo 2E4 player. Like, better than Call of Duty. Really so much fun. I don't know if Banjo Kazooie had it too, but the Banjo Tui also, like, single player game was just fun one. Same with Banjo Kazooie.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, it's.

[Big Cat]

It's probably okay. You guys have a pick.

[PFT Commenter]

It's us. All right, Hank. I like this one that I'm highlighting right there.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, I like. That. Was. That was the other one. Or what about that one?

[Big Cat]

Burning someone Alive.

[PFT Commenter]

I still think that was a good pick by Hank. All right, we're gonna go star fox 64. Love star fox.

[Max]

I like that game.

[Hank]

Love the squad planes.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, the planes were great. Somewhat unrealistic in terms of the GS.

[Jerry O'Connell]

That they could pull.

[Big Cat]

All right.

[PFT Commenter]

It would have destroyed the airframe.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, I like Star Fox.

[PFT Commenter]

It was great.

[Big Cat]

All right, we'll finish off with NFL blitz.

[Hank]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Okay. Good pick.

[Big Cat]

Very fun.

[PFT Commenter]

I forgot that that was a 64 game.

[Big Cat]

Madden was. Madden came out, obviously, on 60. 64, but it wasn't great on 64.

[Max]

I was hoping you weren't gonna pick that. I was hoping that was gonna go undrafted.

[Big Cat]

Oh, why? Because it's a good pick. Yeah. Why didn't you pick it then instead of Zelba?

[Max]

I want to, like, punch all of you. You guys have been so annoying.

[PFT Commenter]

Well, you know what? This is gonna be one of those drafts where on Sunday's show, Max is gonna be like, the entire Internet said I was right about Zelda, and I know that. I just don't like Zelda.

[Hank]

We also worried about his team.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. I was gonna say we should also just put something.

[Max]

I'm done.

[Big Cat]

We should put some cont Thing. So if you're like. You're like. Why is there so much contention over N64? Hold on. Over an N64. Mount Rushmore. The teams that we've been playing in the camp barstool games. Max is the captain of one team. Dana Beers is the captain. The other Dana Beers picked all three of us. And Max is just on an island. He has lost control of the locker room.

[Max]

I don't. I don't want to be the captain. I don't like putting people in any position.

[Big Cat]

What do you. What, you don't want to put people. You hate camp. Yeah. No.

[PFT Commenter]

He wants to go home.

[Max]

I like camp. I hate the.

[Big Cat]

I'm so sick, Mommy. I want my hoagie and my Zelda. Come pick me up.

[Max]

This is, like, a really nice bit, like, let's do the whole team up on Max thing. It's a really nice thing that we get. Keep going on.

[Big Cat]

You could have drafted all three of them.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I wanted to. You were my next pick.

[Max]

I don't know. I drafted poor. I. I did draft. Whatever it.

[Big Cat]

I would. I wanted you to draft me.

[Max]

I know. And every time I was. I was. I was trying to play the value game, and I thought that I was going to get back to me. I could barely move on Sunday.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, that's true.

[Max]

My calf is a problem more than Five feet.

[Big Cat]

But you forgot about how fast I am in the water.

[Max]

I. But, like, what? That doesn't make sense to me.

[Hank]

Guys on our team, the specific were still dominating.

[Big Cat]

I can't run. I swim. You can't. I understand, but swimming doesn't hurt your calf.

[Max]

You couldn't move on Sunday.

[Big Cat]

Okay. It's you. Swimming is like the. This. The thing you do when you have injuries because it's no load bear.

[Max]

I'm not a physical therapist. How am I supposed to know that?

[PFT Commenter]

It's okay, Max. Max misses his mom.

[Max]

Don't live with my mom.

[Big Cat]

Mommy, I want whiz. Whitney.

[PFT Commenter]

I spent a lot of time in the nurse's office in camp this week.

[Big Cat]

Oh, my God. Oh, Mommy, I want my whiz wit and my.

[PFT Commenter]

You make friends here.

[Big Cat]

Oh, you will make friends. Okay.

[Max]

I didn't take Mario Kart because I played Diddy Kong racing as a kid.

[Big Cat]

Oh.

[PFT Commenter]

And it didn't. And it didn't feel right, did it? That's a good game.

[Max]

Diddy Kong.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Max]

It was like you either had Mario Kart or you had Diddy Kong racing. I had Diddy Kong racing.

[Big Cat]

Here's. Here's one that I was thinking about picking because it came with every single N64 to start. Wave Racer. I loved Wave Race.

[Hank]

Wave Race.

[Big Cat]

It was the free game that came.

[Hank]

Jet Moto.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Hank]

I don't know if that was what it's called.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, 1080s.

[Max]

Mask too.

[Big Cat]

What?

[Max]

I should have doubled down and taken Zelda. Majora's mask, too.

[Big Cat]

Oh, you should have. Majora. I'm gonna let you take one out.

[Hank]

Majora's Mask is one of the best games.

[PFT Commenter]

Oh, you guys ever play Cruising usa?

[Big Cat]

Yep.

[PFT Commenter]

Ridge Racer was good.

[Hank]

You say the dinosaur one?

[PFT Commenter]

Oh, yeah, dude. You don't like the dinosaur?

[Hank]

I've never heard of this in my life.

[PFT Commenter]

Turok Dinosaur Hunter was an awesome game.

[Big Cat]

And I don't know.

[Hank]

I gotta look that up. I just laugh.

[PFT Commenter]

It was sweet. You shot T. Rex's in the mouth with a bow and arrow.

[Big Cat]

Ken Griffey Jr. Slugfest and. And M and M Slugfest. No, was Major League Baseball featuring Ken Griffey Jr.

[PFT Commenter]

There was.

[Big Cat]

I just call the Ken Griffey baseball. It was awesome.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. I feel like Ken Griffey baseball for Super Nintendo might have been better for the one from 64.

[Big Cat]

Sports games weren't the best. The. The best part about N64 was there was no load time. Yeah. It would just be instant.

[PFT Commenter]

Just pop it in.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Hank]

Well, yeah, but then.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Oh, yeah. But that that actually feels like you're doing something.

[PFT Commenter]

Blow on it. Yeah, the mouth too.

[Big Cat]

And then the joystick when you had the. The. The one. The one joystick where that was loose.

[PFT Commenter]

Mad cats. That's what they used to control the submarine that went down to the Titanic.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. What else? Any others?

[PFT Commenter]

Mario Tennis?

[Big Cat]

Yeah. You had a couple Mario's Golf.

[Zach]

Did you guys like a Paper Mario?

[Big Cat]

Yep. So you played all these on Wii?

[Hank]

Mario Tennis?

[Zach]

Yes.

[PFT Commenter]

What was Paper Mario?

[Zach]

It's Paper Mario or loading screen you find on a little paper airplane. There's like. It's got a map to it and there's like just different objectives on the map.

[Big Cat]

Map.

[PFT Commenter]

Okay, cool.

[Zach]

What about a Galaga? You guys ever play Galaga?

[Big Cat]

I didn't know what that was when you sent that to me. No. Yeah. Does anyone know Galaga?

[Zach]

So like you've got a spaceship at the bottom of the screen and there's like alien spaceships coming down this way and you go side to side.

[Hank]

Yeah, that sounds.

[Big Cat]

That sounds like it's like an arcade style.

[Hank]

Yeah, that's like a really old game. I think I'm going to put that on a computer.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

Very fun.

[Big Cat]

Okay, good. Mount Rushmore.

[PFT Commenter]

Great. Mount Rushmore.

[Big Cat]

Max, can I say something? Yeah. You made that Mount Rush. More fun. Otherwise there's gonna be us listing N64 games.

[PFT Commenter]

Just being like that was awesome.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, you made that. Mount Rushmore. Good for the viewers. Okay. Okay. You want to go home? You want to go home? You're sick of camp.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. He misses his dog.

[Big Cat]

I never played Zelda. He's sick of camp. Yeah, no, we know that. It was just wild that you did that after throwing an accusation at Zach.

[Jerry O'Connell]

As many as there can be.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Very, very, very, very, very, very, very.

[Big Cat]

Very, very, very, very, very, very.

[Jerry O'Connell]

That's enough.

[Big Cat]

Very special guest.

[PFT Commenter]

Very special fantasy co owner, co owner Jerry o'.

[Big Cat]

Connell. He is with us at Camp Barcelona, which has been. Thank you. I don't know if I've thanked you.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You have, you have, you have.

[Big Cat]

I would like to thank you again right here on this platform.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Thank you, guys. I got to tell you for my fantasy preview. Thank you again. I was feeling really strong this season. I've done a lot of homework. I've done a lot of research. I was about to say months. I'd say about a month. Being in a camp with Stephen chef for just 12 hours has completely me. It has me up.

[PFT Commenter]

I'm concerned about this because Jerry came into the book and he said, you'll never believe what Stephen Chase showed me. He had his laptop pulled open. He's got this whole fantasy football program that he made himself on his Laptop. I said, jerry, was it a program or was it a spreadsheet that Stephen Shea put names into? And then the look on your face was like, no, it's. I'm pretty sure it's its own system that he made. And Stephen Che is famous for just making a spreadsheet of names and referring it to it as a software program.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Right.

[Big Cat]

I think what happened here. PFD's right. You got duped. Stephen Che is our number one smart presenting person at barstool. Right. The glasses, yeah. Asian, sure. He's not smart.

[Jerry O'Connell]

The sort of monotone. Correct. Werewolf with him last night. Just sort of. He's. He's tough to read.

[Big Cat]

Read.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I did pick him out in round one, though. Breathing. I said, he's breathing heavily, but he's smart.

[Big Cat]

Presenting. He's not smart.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Now, here's the deal. I. I am. I am Excel proficient. I can.

[Big Cat]

We all say that.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I. I am, though.

[PFT Commenter]

No, you're not.

[Big Cat]

You don't.

[PFT Commenter]

When was the last time as an actor used Excel?

[Jerry O'Connell]

I had to use Excel at a job just a few years ago.

[Big Cat]

You can. You can what?

[Jerry O'Connell]

I. I mean, I was in an.

[PFT Commenter]

Office, read the Brandy music video and.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And spreadsheets were coming in, and you read them? I read them and hid the tabs and changed things.

[PFT Commenter]

You opened a spreadsheet?

[Jerry O'Connell]

I. I am. I'm Excel proficient.

[Big Cat]

There's no way you're Excel.

[PFT Commenter]

I don't think so.

[Jerry O'Connell]

That said, he. It's more than just an Excel spreadsheet. I recognize He. He is able to break down what players do in red zones. And it really. I gotta tell you something else that he said, that really got my head.

[Big Cat]

He copied this from someone, by the way.

[Jerry O'Connell]

He said. He said, what's the scoring system of. Of the. Part of my take league? And I went, I think it's like half ppr. And he went, yeah, but how many points for completions? How many points for touchdowns? How many points for 10 yards? And I said, I, I, I don't know. And he went, you got to know these things, Jerry.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And so I. I said to a few people in this room, maybe Stephen should do this fantasy football preview with me.

[Big Cat]

No, no, I have enough Stephen Chase.

[PFT Commenter]

My life denied.

[Big Cat]

I'm full.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm not gonna blow somebody up. You know, someone who works here. I said to them, hey, I'm thinking about bringing Stephen with me. He just has a. He has a spreadsheet that's a program that he wrote. And they went, do not.

[Big Cat]

You know, Jerry, you know that feeling like when you were younger and you, and you were drinking and having a great time, and then someone's like, hey, here's a tequila shot. Shot. And then you're like, oh, God, I'm gonna throw up. Right. That's how I feel every day when it comes to my limit of Stephen Shea. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

And Jerry, you are aware that Stephen Shea famously told people not to draft Saquon last year. His spreadsheet, his program told him, do not draft Saquon last year.

[Big Cat]

Saquon Barkley. Have you ever heard of him? Yeah, I, he had 2, 000 yards last year.

[PFT Commenter]

I have barely over a thousand four yards.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I, I do want to say, listen.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, barely over 1,004. Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

As someone who, who's a fantasy football expert, whatever. You make mistakes sometimes. I've, I've had some misses.

[PFT Commenter]

You have.

[Big Cat]

Here's, here's what Aaron Waller was gonna bring up. Darren Waller. Here's what I'm confused about. We spent this entire off season potentially getting you a co manager.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Right?

[Big Cat]

Adam Schefter, Taylor Swift.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Sure.

[Big Cat]

A lot of names thrown out there. And then you resisted you.

[Jerry O'Connell]

That Taylor Swift.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Interview. Yeah, yeah.

[Big Cat]

Possibly co owner, fantasy team. You resisted. You threatened to do some dark shit. Send dark, dark, dark web shit to Adam Schefter.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I did.

[Big Cat]

You threatened to quit. Awls had your back. They were like, pft and Big Cat are being mean to Jerry. And then we show up to camp, and you get a co manager, and his name's Stephen Che.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I didn't get a co manager.

[Big Cat]

If this was a bit. Good job. Job.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Look, when you're at camp, there's a lot of downtime here, you know? And Stephen just cornered me and made me doubt a lot of my, A lot of my, my takes, my system, my ideas for where our fantasy team should go. I, I was very negative about Adam Schefter helping me, about maybe his daughter, Dylan Schefter helping me. We love, love everybody. I, I guess I am a little bit open to it, but I, I do want to say what Adam Schefter does is not fantasy. He's more breaking new. He's always looking for a breaking news. He wants to know, hey, is, is how is Judkins?

[Big Cat]

Would that not be valuable?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Cleveland? Is he sentenced?

[PFT Commenter]

That's actually a very, very valuable knowing who's going to play well.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, I know, but he's more like, he's more concerned about, like, getting out there before Florio or getting out there before, you know, whoever his competition is.

[PFT Commenter]

Well, Jordan Schultz. Is actually in this league.

[Big Cat]

He's peerless, by the way. Maybe we should not have competition.

[PFT Commenter]

Maybe we should get Rapoport.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, that's who Schultz. That's who Team Schultz is.

[PFT Commenter]

Team Schultz.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

So he. We've. We've got an insider in the league already.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Hey, I want to say something about that league. You know, I've really been trying to help that league.

[Big Cat]

League.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You know, I'm new to it, okay? So I did a. I. I. No one had a draft order. We. You need a draft order to know where you're picking. I do a lot of mock drafts. I use AI. Okay. Schefter doesn't use AI. I know how Shefter does this. He's travels a lot. He goes to an airport. He picks up, like, months ago. That Fantasy Preview magazine.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, Airport.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And just keeps reading that over and over again. Things change. Things are evolving in fantasies. You got to have a computer. You did. Got to be Excel. Proficient.

[PFT Commenter]

You did a great job last year of putting the league on tilt and just kind of knocking everyone off balance. Because when we dropped you in the group chat immediately, just took your shirt off, and you record a video of you making the draft order. And then everybody was like, who is this?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Right?

[PFT Commenter]

Who is this guy? You had to kind of explain your CV to them and be like, I was in Kangaroo Jack. Ever heard of it? Yeah, but this year, you haven't. You haven't put out a video yet. You're kind of waiting for somebody else to do it.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Why don't you open the group chat? I did our draft video.

[PFT Commenter]

I do have it.

[Jerry O'Connell]

There's a link there, Jerry. We could play it now.

[Big Cat]

I have two questions for you before we start.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

One.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, by the way, I want to say we'll get to your questions. They always accuse me of rigging the draft order. I would never.

[Big Cat]

What pick did we get?

[Jerry O'Connell]

We got the fourth pick. Let me just say this to everyone in our league. I would never mess with another man's money. I would never. It's just not my style. I don't. When it comes to gambling, I don't do that. I would never do that. Also, I'm not entirely sure who's in that league. There could be, like, UFC fighters in there. I'm not. I don't want any beef with any of these people. Like, I don't mess with the draft order. I do a straight draft. I put it in the hat. Look at the video. Judge for yourself.

[PFT Commenter]

Trying to pull it up right now. All right, There's a lot. Jerry, you. You are far and away the leading texter in this group chat. It's crazy.

[Big Cat]

Do you. Do you want my questions?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, in a second. You want me to pull up the video or. No.

[PFT Commenter]

Is it the one that says Bing bong? Is it you in a bar?

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, it's the one it's a link to because I have an answer.

[PFT Commenter]

Is it your bet slip? Is it? There's so many attachments you put in here, Jared.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Because I have an Android. It's a link to Dropbox.

[Big Cat]

Oh.

[PFT Commenter]

Oh, yeah.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

So you wonder why I didn't watch it.

[Big Cat]

Oh, my God.

[PFT Commenter]

Maybe go into a third party app to watch.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's not a third party. Dropbox. It's a big deal. It's like I can't because the Android and Apple systems like the quality. Like, it loses quality. So I just do a Dropbox link. It's not a big deal. Just click on the link. God, you and shifter are so weird about the links I send you.

[Big Cat]

He did say dark. Dark web shit.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, I know, but it's like, it's. It's fun. It's all German. What? I sent him crazy.

[PFT Commenter]

Go. Yeah, Dropbox. Okay, pull it up.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'll pull it up. So, like, click on it and just play it and.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. So it looks like you're in bed here.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm under a sheet.

[PFT Commenter]

Under the sheets?

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Let's see what Jerry did.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Hey, guys. What's up?

[PFT Commenter]

Oh, wait, it's playing through my sunglasses.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, that. That. That's another thing. When you're here traveling with pft, you're always being recorded through his glasses.

[PFT Commenter]

That's not true, Jerry.

[Big Cat]

Only when the light.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Super unfun. Jerry O here. Also known as Jerry's camera. Kids, we're going to be doing our draft.

[Big Cat]

Okay. Did you make.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Every piece of paper is the same.

[PFT Commenter]

Are you hiding from your wife under the sheep?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Every team under a blanket. I didn't want. I'm like, at home. We got pop artists. We got.

[Big Cat]

Make sure I got that. Sorry.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We got rugs and tugs ties in there.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Pop art lists.

[Big Cat]

Okay. Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

We can put this video in. Yeah, but you do have a list here. We've got a list of the names. So we are picking fourth in this draft if. If the league decides to go with your order because we did not go with the order last year. People were offended by your shirtless video and they changed the order.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, I. I think we're sticking with this order. That's what the. That's what the group Text has.

[Big Cat]

Okay, great.

[Jerry O'Connell]

By the way, I just want to say the messaging systems between Android and Apple has really improved.

[Big Cat]

It's like you keep saying that.

[PFT Commenter]

No.

[Big Cat]

And you keep screwing up every group text written.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm sorry to interrupt your questions. You guys are the owners. What was your question?

[Big Cat]

All right, my question. First question is payment.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay.

[Big Cat]

Will you be paying this year?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, I paid last year.

[Big Cat]

You have separate bank account from your wonderful, lovely, respectful wife, Rebecca Romain, supermodel. Look her up.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, we have. We have one group account that we put in money for things like, you know, electric bills, potholes, stuff like that.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, yeah, that's the driveway.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I did. I actually got a temporary. Like a. Like a fit, like a thing.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, a filler.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It is starting to. They really don't last very long. It's. It's starting to.

[PFT Commenter]

We got a guy.

[Big Cat]

Guy.

[PFT Commenter]

We have a. A hole filler guy that we.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, I see him here.

[Big Cat]

Nicky smokes.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, oh, oh, Nick. Nicky smokes.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, Any hole.

[PFT Commenter]

He'll be very respectful of your wife.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oldie did come up to me and whisper in my ear, hey, man, I could. I could fix that pothole anytime you want.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, you could.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Just the idea of having oldie walk around my house with my wife a couple days because I have to fly.

[PFT Commenter]

Him in and everything sees pouches like Kangaroo Jack, too.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. So you have your separate account so we can come out of that. Does your wife know you're getting paid $4 million to do this this year?

[Jerry O'Connell]

You keeps making that joke. That is. That is not the case. And also, there's not enough money in the world to sleep in a bunk with Hank and hear him talk in.

[Big Cat]

His sleep, which is really insane.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Hank is in this room last night. I'm just gonna say it was like, papa. Papa. No, Papa, you're running. Papa, please stop. No, that's my bathing suit. Stop. It was really weird stuff. It was. It was dark web.

[PFT Commenter]

It was a great job flipping it. That's great. Get us laughing at Hank.

[Big Cat]

Smart. Yeah. Very smart. All right, second question. Will you be swearing during this preview? Because my kids listen to this show.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, I would never swear in front of your kids. Kids were there. I would. I would never do that.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, no. Jerry came over to my house to see my family on Monday night, and he just lets it fly in front of the kids. 50. I don't give a. Because they listen to this podcast, and they.

[Jerry O'Connell]

They.

[Big Cat]

They hear it, and they hear me swear. But you were just letting it fly.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, I. I do have a Theory that, that kids don't. We don't enter a kid's life. Kids enter our life.

[Big Cat]

Oh, I like that theory.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm not going to change. And I think kids need to see how the adults really talk.

[Big Cat]

I think it helps them.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I think it helps them.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. I mean, it was the F bombs. I don't care about when you call Nicky Smokes a rapist in front of my kids.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, they need to know that stuff. Oh, guys, can we talk about Camp Barstool for just one second?

[PFT Commenter]

Sure.

[Big Cat]

Yes.

[Jerry O'Connell]

First of all, my family, specifically my wife, still doesn't understand why I'm here for four days, why I'm in a cabin. What is the pay structure? Why am I fort is.

[PFT Commenter]

You're here for seven days.

[Jerry O'Connell]

My wife is like, wait, what are you. So you're living with them? Why are you living with them? Who are you? Show me the photos of them. And, like, they go through it and they're like, okay, that's Max. You're living with him. You're living with all the, all these people. Meeting the person I've been most surprised with because it is so fun. You meet all the barstool personalities is. It's so great. Playing werewolf last night was so fun. I'm most impressed with Nicky Smokes. I really.

[Big Cat]

He's an impressive guy.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Honestly, I had an idea of who he was before I came here, and he completely shattered that idea. I could see him and I being friends for a very long time.

[Big Cat]

I agree.

[PFT Commenter]

Good. Hit the town together.

[Big Cat]

I agree.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And I want to say, I wore a crop. I had a crop top yesterday. Max cut it for me. Thank you, Max. X. I got a lot of compliments on X. And Nikki Smokes was in my vicinity. Didn't once touch my midsection.

[Big Cat]

There we go.

[PFT Commenter]

Class act.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I, I do have to say, it's also fun to see him and Anaka spending such a tremendous amount of time with each other here. It's, it's, it's so interesting to see them like, they were on a, a chair swing today. Who, who, who was with me today, like, this morning, just, like, watching the sunrise. And I get it. He's a very romantic person. Yeah, like, like I'm married. I would never sit on a chair swing and watch the sunrise and all that stuff.

[Big Cat]

Love is love.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Seems like a nightmare.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. All right, should we get to the fantasy preview?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, let's get to it.

[Big Cat]

What do we got in the briefcase?

[Jerry O'Connell]

This out.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Briefcase here at a Camp Barstool. Wait for it.

[Big Cat]

Oh, okay.

[PFT Commenter]

I'M already scared by the amount of pieces of paper that you have right there.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, just like.

[PFT Commenter]

That's just like, more than last year, Jerry.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You guys always ask about the contents of my briefcase.

[Big Cat]

Baby oil. You got an apple? Baby oil.

[PFT Commenter]

Diddy party. How come you didn't tell us about the. Did the Diddy party, Jerry?

[Jerry O'Connell]

What's in the.

[PFT Commenter]

How long were you at the Diddy party for?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, I did go to a Diddy party once. Yeah. Yeah, I went. It was called the White Party. And you had to wear all white. White clothes. And it's so funny. I got so drunk, and I ordered a vodka cranberry. They were, like, serving vodka cranberries. It wasn't normally my drink drink. Although it is, like, healthy. It's healthy for, like, urinary tract stuff. And I was on the dance floor and on my white outfit, just vodka cranberry all over the front. And I remember Diddy, like, running around the party, and he was like. He didn't know who I was. He was like, who the. Who the is this? Who the is this? The? Like, why don't you respect yourself? Like, what is this? And I thought I was gonna get kicked out, and I, like, ran away from him, and I was able to stay, but there was an after party. It went to a club afterwards, and a huge fight broke out. It was crazy night. That's the end of that story.

[Big Cat]

Okay. That's a good story.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. I was really worried about. Sometimes if I go to camp and there's, like, other people, I've. I have trouble going number two. I get, like, nervous.

[Big Cat]

You have loose pills?

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, I have, like, smooth move tea that I drink sometimes.

[Big Cat]

Like, there's some loose pills in there. There.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, that's. That's Excedrin. I like. I like taking Excedrin.

[Big Cat]

You guys enjoy it?

[Jerry O'Connell]

When our flight got delayed, you put me in a hotel. I stole some of, like, the. The stuff. This is, like, the toiletries. Yeah. Shaving kit and stuff. And I took one apple from the cafeteria in case I got hungry.

[PFT Commenter]

Put in your briefcase. Yeah, I like that.

[Big Cat]

Okay. All right, let's go. Where are we starting?

[Jerry O'Connell]

I was so excited about this.

[PFT Commenter]

Well, yeah, when you first. When you first came on the show, you gave us your do not draft list. It was like Jerry's list of people that have personally wronged him that he will never draft again. But over the years, that's kind of evolved. And now you're just. You want to draft everybody?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, it used to be people. I had personal. Personal resentments. Toward. Yeah, because they wronged me the season prior. And then I realized, like, a lot of the awls, like, use my guidance to draft. They.

[Big Cat]

They see you as the expert.

[Jerry O'Connell]

They await for this. So I had to take more of sort of an impartial stance.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So we're going to try something new this year, and what we're going to do is we're going to be open to the universe. It's kind of like. It's like dating, Zach. It's. It's like dating. It's like being, like, open to the universe. You know, like, the best intercourse guys are the guys who, like, are just, like, open to intercoursing with, like, anyone. Any. Like, you don't, like, have, like, set standards. Just that one person I'm gonna intercourse with. It's like, you gotta be like, water, like, whoever will intercourse with me. Like, I can intercourse with them. And it's like. So that's what we're going to do with our draft.

[PFT Commenter]

Okay? We're going to talk to the entire NFL.

[Big Cat]

What is the theme of this draft? Intercourse.

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, no, no, no. The game to this draft is just.

[Big Cat]

Being open universe, under the universe.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What comes our way. Drafts are. They're nebulous things. It's like intercoursing. It's like. They're not like. It's not like, you know, pilates instructor. You, I will intercourse with you. Or like. Or, like, marketing executive in Dallas. You, I will intercourse with you. Show me your tootsie. That's it? Just you? Just you? Just you and me. Like, it's like. It's like, hey, like, I'm here, you're here. Who's in this round? What round are we in? It's the tenth round. Okay. What's up? Hey, tenth round. What's up? I don't know. Kyler. Murray, how you doing? Oh, you know, we do start these off. Zach.

[Big Cat]

Zach, you.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You know I'm an actor, right? And careful how you answer this, because the last guy who answered it, things didn't end well. So tell me what you know about me as an actor, Zach.

[Zach]

Yes, sir.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You know I'm an actor. First of all, drop the sir. I've been in a cabin with you now for two days. You've heard me. We've heard Hank with his night terrors.

[Big Cat]

You.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You know I'm an actor, right, Zach?

[Big Cat]

I do.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What have you seen me in?

[Zach]

I really enjoyed kangaroo jazz.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Okay. All right, here we go. He's a real one.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Confidence back you, Che. All right, here is our strategy. Bowers in the second round. Now I know, I listen, I know, I know, I know.

[Big Cat]

Open.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I, I know, I know I said Darren Waller a few years ago and that really fucked people over. But he was like going through a divorce. He was divorcing that very attractive woman from the wnba, Kelsey Plum. And I think it was like personal stuff. I didn't see that coming. And also I, we didn't know at that time how bad a quarterback Daniel Jones was. This was not information that we all knew. We thought the Giants office knew something that we didn't. And we were very wrong about that. That Bowers in the second, Jaden Daniels in the fourth. That is, that is, that is where, that is where we live now. It may not happen again. You got to be open to intercoursing with any of these players. Any of them. Okay. We could wait for Bo Nicks, we could wait for Jalen. Hurts. What's up, Max? Okay. This league that we're in is so unpredictable. These people are nuts. I, I, I just. There's so much talent in rounds 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 9. Oh yeah. George Pickens, DK Mech, Jameson Williams, Trevin Hendricks. All these people. Matt Goldman, Golden. There are so many. There's so much talent a little later in the draft this year. Oh yeah. Especially with ride wide, wide receivers. But I do want to tell you a reason why our draft hinges on Jaden in the fourth.

[Big Cat]

You can't take him in the third.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Is that I really believe Jaden Daniels is going to break all QB records this season. I think.

[Big Cat]

Well, then we should take him in the first.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I think he's going to have 5000 passing yards. 5000? Yeah, I think he's going to have 1600 rushing yards.

[PFT Commenter]

Jerry, I hate that you've put me in this position, but I have to push back a little bit.

[Big Cat]

Just.

[PFT Commenter]

No, no. Terry scare you?

[Big Cat]

You.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You don't think he's going to be there?

[PFT Commenter]

I think he is.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, so do I.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I think he's going to be there.

[Big Cat]

Okay, so we're good.

[PFT Commenter]

1600 rushing yards.

[Big Cat]

So would we want to draft him earlier if he breaks all the records?

[Jerry O'Connell]

I know, I don't, I, I, I, because you just can't waste that third pick. There's too much like there's too much talent.

[PFT Commenter]

If he breaks every quarterback record, has 1600 rushing yards, 5000 passing yards. We will win our league if we have him.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I, I, I know, but I also think we can't waste that, that third pick on him. Listen, third pick I work with AI. Adam Schefter does not. Dylan Shefter May Younger. Like, all of the programs that I use, and I pay for all of them say that you. You got to wait to the fourth round to draft him. Okay, let's start with the AFC East. Hank and Means are both here.

[PFT Commenter]

Yes.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Not really feeling anyone in the AFC, like, not one player in the AFC.

[Big Cat]

East in the entire AFCs.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Let's start with Miami. Okay.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Bad team.

[PFT Commenter]

This is your fifth. Let's start with.

[Jerry O'Connell]

This is my. This is my issue. This is my issue with Miami. I'm. I'm an actor, Zach. I'm an actor, right?

[PFT Commenter]

Yes, sir.

[Big Cat]

I'll hit you with the sir again.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I. A movie is funded through its star. Like, a movie gets its funding. Like, how much is the budget of a Tom Cruise movie? Wow. It's hundreds of millions of dollars. He's the biggest star. Big Cat, if you yawn again during my preview, really like, I'm gonna go.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, well, you need to let me know when we're starting.

[Jerry O'Connell]

A movie gets its funding through its star. So Tom Cruise gets hundreds. Hundreds of millions of dollars. You know, a guy like me, it's like, hundreds of thousands of dollars. If I, like, I'm the star of a film, you get paid more for.

[Big Cat]

The Mountain Dew job.

[Jerry O'Connell]

My problem with drafting anyone at Miami is that the star of that movie. It's. It's so frightening watching that team, and I. I don't want to get dark here. I don't want to start off on such a dark, dark, dark footing, dark web shit. But it's. Is it just me, or is it scary watching Dolphins games?

[PFT Commenter]

It's a little scary. It's a little scary.

[Big Cat]

I think they're gonna be bad, but.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It'S scary because at any moment, something bad can happen.

[PFT Commenter]

Their coach is, like, longing for the sweet embrace of death before the season starts.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's. Yeah. I mean, I don't think Tyreek will be a dolphin. You know, the computers I use, AI Are really telling us to draft Waddle, and I think that has to do with them knowing Tyrique isn't going to be there. And so we may take Waddle, like, in the seventh, which would be a steal. Okay, Buffalo, first of all, I'm really sorry to be a little sacrilegious here. Hard Knocks is really bad. It is a bad season.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We were here at Camp Barstool listening to Hank and his night terrors, so I didn't watch this week's show, but, wow, is it boring. And it's really making me not. Like, typically I watch Hard Knocks and I'm like, oh, got to get that guy. Got to get, got to get Ocho Cinco. Got to get, you know, fall in love. Got to get the Baltimore defense. You, like, fall in love with. With people. But it makes me not want to draft any of them. And by the way, first of all, like, the highlight was. It's so funny. I was thinking about this podcast. The highlight of Hard Knock so far has literally been Prayers for Demar. He was praying, like, 10 minutes of that one episode was him praying on the field. Did you see that?

[Big Cat]

Yeah, it was.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I was like, wow, they should call this episode Prayers for Damar. Oh, you know what? Here we go. Name me three wide receivers from. From Buffalo.

[PFT Commenter]

Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman and.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Right. So it's, like, tough.

[PFT Commenter]

What's his name? Mac is Max.

[Big Cat]

Matt Collins.

[PFT Commenter]

Matt Collins.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You know, he's a Patriot. No, it's that guy Hamler that's been featured.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I mean, yeah. KJ Hamler, like, the Scooter storyline, it's not really holding it for me. It's fine. I just can't. It's. It is a testament to how good Josh Allen is because he's making magic with.

[Big Cat]

With.

[PFT Commenter]

I actually think Khalil Shakira is a pretty good player.

[Big Cat]

I do, too. And they also do have good tight ends.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. But two of them. So this is a fantasy.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Preview. You can't, like, if anyone. If. If there's. If. If there's, like, a group, like, of people catching balls. You can't do that. For some reason, the computers really want us to take Ray Davis in the 10th round.

[PFT Commenter]

Are you running this team or is a computer.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

What the hell's going on?

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm trying to be open to the universe.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I hear a lot about AI and people saying, like, it's doing bad things, but I think there's some good things that it's doing. And for. Like, I'm actually asking football fans in here, why is it telling me to draft Ray D? Why is it. Why does it have such a. Why does the computer have such a hard on for Ray Davis? Was this before Cook maybe signed all his.

[Big Cat]

Maybe.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Because I've been off the grid while I've been here at Camp Barstool, the Jets memes. I'm so sorry. I am a Jets fan, and Big Cat has been warning me all season, and it's just gotten in there. You know when someone says something about a player and it's just like. It just. It's like a brain worm, you know? It's like rfk. It just sits in there.

[PFT Commenter]

That's your boy, right? You met him, your friends.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I told you that privately. Not for the show, not for air. Dr. Bing Bong, just to let you know, when there was injuries last year, I kept. Left. I kept leaving voice messages just for pft. A big cat. Anyone else getting upset here at this podcast who may or may not have night?

[PFT Commenter]

I think you diagnosed seven different players with AIDS.

[Big Cat]

Kept calling them up.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Hey, Dr. Bing Bong here. Yeah, what occurred was a clean rupture, as we all saw, and poisonous. Has a terrible disease. Memes, I'm so sorry. Anything with Justin Fields, it's just not happening. And I know we just watch videos from camp and clips and everything gets clipped. I'm here at Barstool. Everything gets clipped. But we can't with Justin Fields this season. I'm so sorry, Memes.

[Big Cat]

Memes hates you.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Now you want to, want to jump in here at all?

[Big Cat]

I disagree with this. I think he's top 10 fantasy football. Wow.

[PFT Commenter]

Top 10?

[Big Cat]

Yeah, I mean, I actually had top five last year. Well, that number. I don't totally disagree with the rushing.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, yeah, nor do I.

[PFT Commenter]

But like Memes, is Jerry a racist?

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, no, no, no, no, no.

[Big Cat]

Are you?

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, I, I, I, I just think a quarterback has to. Rushing is great, but I think they also have to have the ability to pass the ball as well. What is the negativity surrounding Breeze Hall? I can't understand it. Is it a contract dispute? Is he upset with Braylon? What is happening there?

[Big Cat]

I'm not really sure. He's trying to prove it, but Braylon Allen is also a monster.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So Braylon Allen is currently going in my computer draft in the 12th round. So that is someone who's probably going to be on our team. Okay, so I know I said no one from the AFC east, but maybe.

[Big Cat]

Braylon and Waddle and Ray Davis.

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, I was just throwing that out. Patriots. Hank, can you hear me? Hank, do you. Are you on a mic?

[PFT Commenter]

Nope. He's laying down.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Come and have a seat. Come on.

[Big Cat]

He's saving his energy.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Come and have a seat. Come on.

[Big Cat]

Come on.

[PFT Commenter]

Factor fiction. You were laying down.

[Hank]

The only seats are bunk beds.

[Big Cat]

Get.

[Hank]

I did not have night terrors.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Hank, come and sit here. Come on. Come on, Hank.

[PFT Commenter]

Let's go.

[Big Cat]

Hank.

[PFT Commenter]

The people want it. Listen, love them or hate him, Hank makes the show better.

[Big Cat]

He always does. Is this. Yeah. Hit it, Jerry.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Is it a Smelling salt.

[Big Cat]

Hit it, Jerry.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I, I've never done a smelling salt.

[Big Cat]

Hit it so right up to your nose.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Just like I've never done a smelling salt.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

First of all, is it addictive? Addictive?

[Big Cat]

No addictive properties.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You promise?

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I've never done it. Okay, I gotta take my glasses off. Is this gonna me up?

[Big Cat]

No, we'll all do it.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay. Just sniff it.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. God.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You, Stephen Shane, Stephen Chase. Such an.

[Big Cat]

Oh, God. Oldie is a little weird too.

[PFT Commenter]

We got truth.

[Big Cat]

You want some more?

[Hank]

Also, no night terrors. That was just slander liable all the above.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Wow. I get it, Kettle. I get it, George. Okay, yeah, yeah, of course I get it.

[Big Cat]

Please, please, please, please, please.

[PFT Commenter]

All right, so Patriots.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I get it. Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

Let's start with Patriots.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Patriots. Let's. Let's start with the Patriots. Hey, congrats on. Congrats on Drake.

[Big Cat]

Thanks, Jer. Drake.

[Jerry O'Connell]

May Drake met B. Drake.

[Hank]

Maybe.

[PFT Commenter]

Oh, I like that, Jerry.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Maybe that was a joke I worked out of my head. God, these smelling so salts me up. Yeah, he's gonna have a good season. Oh, listen, Hank, I do want to apologize to you. This is like not even a joke. Watching beach house Summer. Beach house and all that stuff. You know, the theme has been Nikki smokes inappropriately touching people. When we went to that DraftKings opening in Scottsdale, you guys invited me. It was super fun. That gal. The Beck gala.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Looking at some of those clips, I. I didn't think I was like being inappropriate with you, Hank. I was really inappropriate.

[Hank]

Yeah, extremely.

[PFT Commenter]

Ruptured his ear.

[Jerry O'Connell]

There was so much touching. First of all, I didn't gyrations.

[PFT Commenter]

I was told you ruptured his ear.

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, no.

[Big Cat]

You were rock hard.

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, he had a head cold. He admit you had a head cold?

[Hank]

I couldn't hear for at least 12 hours after that until my ears popped.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I do want to apologize. I was inappropriately be behaving with you. That was, that was wrong of me. We should get Ronan here. We should talk about it.

[Zach]

I agree.

[Jerry O'Connell]

But I forgive you for blaming me for your earache. Oh, you know what, Hank? Tell us.

[Hank]

Can you admit that I also did not have night terrors?

[Jerry O'Connell]

You don't have night terrors. It's a bit.

[PFT Commenter]

But like, it's so mad when you accuse him of talking.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I know. Come take it down a notch.

[Big Cat]

Well, I don't know.

[Hank]

I get, I get raped, rattled.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I know, but it's a podcast. Like calm down.

[Big Cat]

Fun.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What is this, Grit week? Calm down. I listen to every show. Guys tell Us about travy on Hender Henderson, because I'm really interested.

[Hank]

He's having a good camp. I think they're going to be splitting. Splitting?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. That's my problem is the committee backs.

[Hank]

And they're excited about it. Him and Ramadre are both excited to split rushes. Whatever the team needs, they're excited to do. Don't think it's good for fantasy, but it's good for the team.

[Jerry O'Connell]

But let me ask you, like, when. When there's a committee. Like, when there's a committee backfield, from a fantasy standpoint, that's not good, Correct?

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So I think we're going to stay away from them. I'm so sorry. I. I also like New England committee backfields. I just don't touch. Good for the team, bad for fantasy. But Diggs, is he gonna be ready?

[PFT Commenter]

Yes.

[Hank]

Oh, yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

He will be ready.

[Hank]

Oh, yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Because there was like. And I know I've been off the grid for a couple days. There was like some conflicting reports between head coaches and actual receivers.

[Hank]

Tucy Godwin, he'll be ready.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay. He's. He's a possibility. He's a. He's a wide receiver. One. He's a star. A little nervous.

[Hank]

So you get good value with Diggs.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Good value.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Nervous about coming back from that injury. All right, let's move on to the AFC North.

[Big Cat]

All right. Great job, Hank.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Thanks. Yeah.

[Hank]

Back to bed.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Don't have night terrors, buddy. All the time. Papa.

[Big Cat]

Papa.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Burning Papa. It's burning. Papa.

[Big Cat]

No. I'm sorry, Papa.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Please. Guys, did you hear that? Let's go to the AFC North. Ravens. Man, it's so funny. I said this last season, a guy I work with just keeps telling me he's a Ravens fan and he keeps telling me Zay Flowers is small and he puts up great numbers. But I can't draft Zay Flowers because it's just like that RFK worm that gets in my head. Not drafting Mark Andrews because he's got low T, low targets. Lamar is up there, but I gotta tell you, I just really feel like Jaden is going to break all the records. So I don't like that.

[PFT Commenter]

I don't like that you're putting all that on Jaden.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Jerry. I just, I. I feel like it's going to happen. Let's move to the Pittsburgh. If DK is there on round five, we're taking him.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Is going to have another. I mean, he's going to get a thousand yard season, he's going to have 10 TDs. We're also going to draft. Draft Caleb Johnson, this rookie running back out of Iowa because he's in that Arthur Smith offense. They're going to be running it. Caleb Johnson. Yeah. Oh, you want to hear. This is. Caleb is with a K, by the way. Not. Not a C. Do you know what? Arthur smith's dad invented FedEx. How did you guys know that?

[PFT Commenter]

Because we're friends with Arthur Smith. He's probably listening right now.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I have no idea. I. He was in a complete state of shock. I just want to say. I mean, I know we're not a FedEx podcast. Are we like anything like a. Up. Any. Any of them.

[PFT Commenter]

Postal service.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, okay. I won't say anything. Good. But I love that FedEx office. It's a really good place. Drop a package off, stickers on, shout out to Arthur Smith. Why does he even need any of the stress? His dad invented FedEx.

[Big Cat]

It's kind of the beauty of it. He loves balls.

[PFT Commenter]

Good looking guy too.

[Big Cat]

Great looking guy.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Here we go.

[Big Cat]

The chin is back in Pittsburgh.

[PFT Commenter]

You should do a soul patch.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Me?

[PFT Commenter]

No Arthur Smith. Oh, that's Artie Smith.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. I don't. I don't do any facial hair because this is all white under here and I look like Santi Claus and I just hate it. It just really ages me. I look as old as like Dante. Okay. Cincinnati. The Bengals. If we miss Bowers in the second, which very easily could happen. Chase Brown is just such a stud. He is such a stud. Again, we're being open to the universe.

[Big Cat]

Miss.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We're not going to panic. If we miss Brock in the second. Chase Brown I, I think will be a top five rb. He's just. And by the way, when. When you had Coach Gruden on and he was talking about that offensive line, it just made me so excited. So wet. Wet. Yeah. Just cut that part out. My brain is like.

[PFT Commenter]

I. I do think there, there might be some truth of that, that one of the Bengals ways to combat their bad defense is going to be run.

[Jerry O'Connell]

The ball more 100% and that's what we look for. I do want to say the computers really telling me to take T. Higgins in the third. Okay. But he's going to miss five games and we all know that.

[Big Cat]

Paid, though.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Sorry.

[Big Cat]

He got paid.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I. I know, but are you telling me that he misses games? Cuz he's like. I mean, if you're.

[Big Cat]

I'm kind of telling you that.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, the Browns are interesting to me. First of all, since we've been here at camp, Judkins has been. What's the word?

[Big Cat]

Acquitted.

[PFT Commenter]

No build.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I don't think he was acquitted.

[PFT Commenter]

I think it was no build.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, no, no build.

[Jerry O'Connell]

That's what I'm.

[PFT Commenter]

That's what I'm trying to think.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So that's exciting. He just, he's gonna really move up. I haven't had access to Internet while I've been here, but he's gonna be moving up. That's someone we should really look for.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You know who really tries every season? Jerry Judy. Man, he just tried. He really tries. I, I don't. He's a little streaky. He has such off games. Oh, this is an interesting statistic. A little bit of a steal. Cedric Tillman in the last few games of the season was averaging over 10 targets a game. It's food for thought.

[Big Cat]

Food for thought.

[PFT Commenter]

Okay, who's the quarterback?

[Jerry O'Connell]

You tell me.

[Big Cat]

Me.

[PFT Commenter]

Was it dtr?

[Big Cat]

It was James.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh. Oh. Last season.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

That was maybe. Probably Jamis. That sounds like James. Yeah, it sounds like Jamis, but I know it's a fantasy expert. I'm supposed to know this, but who is this? Was anyone named a starter? Flaco Flacco's, definitely.

[Big Cat]

Yes.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I feel good about that.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, I do, too.

[Jerry O'Connell]

AFC South, Jacksonville.

[Big Cat]

Oh, the.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Jacksonville is really interesting. Brian Thomas is such a fun pick in that second. He's good first or second round? Coach Duval is. He's, he's, he's gonna make him a top five wide. Wide receiver. I'm really. Is it just me or are you also excited for Coach Duval to be in Jacksonville?

[Big Cat]

Yeah, I think Trevor's gonna be good this year. He's stepping into his throws now.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, I have a question, though. Will Coach Cohen. Travis Etienne was a bummer last season. He is a steal. He's going like, in like the seventh round. What are you about to say?

[Big Cat]

I, I, Yeah, I think there. It's going to be a running back by committee, right?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, it is a running back by committee, but Coach Cohen did. Between the smelling salts and Che in my head, Bucky Irving. Sorry to bring up a. A Tampa Buck, but. Oh, we have a. We have a Buck fan here. What Coach Cohen did for Bucky last season, could that happen to Travis? Because if that's the case, Travis going in the seventh is.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

All right.

[PFT Commenter]

What do you think about the other Travis? What do you think about Travis Hunter?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, yeah, I kind of want to. You know what it is? I have a feeling we're going to be watching Jaguars games this season. Yeah, I have a feeling we're going to be watching that offense. I just. I have a feeling Coach Duvall is gonna do for Jacksonville what he did for. What he did for Tampa last season. I just. I. I like. I like. I like Travis in the second. It's fun.

[PFT Commenter]

Do you get. Do you get points for Travis Hunter, interceptions and tackles if you draft him as a wide receiver?

[Jerry O'Connell]

So funny. That's such a great question.

[PFT Commenter]

Great question.

[Big Cat]

Great question, right? I think the answer. I think the answer is no. I think it's probably no, but it is a great question. Question. So good.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I can't believe I got great questions. All right. Colts. God. Since we've been here, I've had limited Internet access. I just saw Stephen or somebody in the papers. It may have been who's. Who's the politist? Stephen Note. Stephen what?

[Big Cat]

Miller?

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, who's. Who's the. Who's the. Who's now the political commentator who's on espn. The smelling salts.

[Big Cat]

Smith.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Stephen A. Smith, I think said, you swear there's not like, an addictive personality of those smelling salts? I'm not going to be like a street corner. Be like, please let me get a smell of sauce on your neck, please. Wow, you got smelling salts. Fantasy preview this year.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You really did it. I think it was him that said that the Colts are purposely tanking for Arch Manning. Am I getting that correct? Somebody said. Somebody said it.

[Big Cat]

I don't know if I believe that. That Shane Steichen's gonna try to keep his job.

[Jerry O'Connell]

But since we've also been here, Daniel Jones has been named correct. Which, I'm so sorry, makes me think the Colts are tanking for Arch Manning. I mean, guys, wouldn't the tanking move.

[Big Cat]

Be maybe Anthony Richardson?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Look, first of all, I should not be sitting here as your fantasy manager. I. I have to admit to you, I know you guys don't pay much attention to our starting lineup. I think some of your OR employees do. I. I drafted Anthony.

[Big Cat]

He was. I know. Oh, no, no, no.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We.

[Big Cat]

We're very aware.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And. And you really should have fired me on. You should have fired me on the spot. I thought. I don't make bold predictions about quarterbacks. Like when I'm Jaden Daniels, break all the records.

[PFT Commenter]

Every record. You said every record.

[Big Cat]

All. All right.

[Jerry O'Connell]

This season, I'm do. Last season, I thought Anthony Richardson was gonna break, like, a lot of records.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

I don't like that. Jerry.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. These smelling salts are really messing me up. Oh, I gotta tell you something. The Ursay Daughters are now all running that team correct our intercourse guy here. Zach. Zach, you're a celebrity now. Are you.

[Big Cat]

Are.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Are you on Mike Z.

[Hank]

Jerry, this is live.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What do you mean it's live?

[Big Cat]

We're live. We're streaming right now.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You guys. You guys keep saying that. That's your big joke. Offensive in our cabin.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Scared to see the blood drain from.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Hey, guys, I'm a little high right now from smelling stuff. Like, don't. Like, now I'm in the paranoid. Like, now I need smelling stuff salts again because I'm starting to, like, get the dts. Give me one more hit of smelling salts, please. Zach, you have to start to date one of these Ursay girls. Like, now that you're an inter. Or our intercourse guy on the show. You've. Like. It's. It's so funny. The Hunt Daughters. Beautiful. Really fun on. Really fun on the Ursay Girls. You. You've. That's our goal. It would be so fun. That is how we get. That's how this podcast gets an NFL team an owner's box.

[Big Cat]

Yes.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Zach, you've got a date. What? You've got to. I'll tell you how you do it. You follow them on social media. Okay. You, like, maybe say something about them.

[Big Cat]

We.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Positive. Has to be positive. We don't do that. Nagging. I know a lot of these young guys. Neg women. I know this because I have daughters, and all they do is neg. Say something positive. Think the. I think these Ursay ladies are doing a great job. Pick one out. Let's pick one out. One who's single, maybe through a divorce. Someone who's looking for love. Like, pick them out and single them out and say, hey, you're doing a great job. Then DM them that clip and just say, hey, Thinking about you. Keep up the great work. And then.

[Big Cat]

Love that.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Zach. Intercourse guys are what, Open.

[Zach]

To the universe.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yes.

[Big Cat]

Zach. Nailed it. Zach.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We're open to the universe.

[Big Cat]

You're a quick learner.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Love it. You know, those, like, Hunt daughters, they look great, but they don't. They're not. Like, making decisions. Are making decisions. That's how we get.

[Big Cat]

She wears a headset.

[PFT Commenter]

Also.

[Big Cat]

Might be married.

[PFT Commenter]

Probably married.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. The computers are really trying to tell me to draft this backup for. For Jonathan Taylor. DJ Giddens. Giddens. They say he's a monster. Houston.

[PFT Commenter]

Alec Pierce.

[Big Cat]

Huh?

[PFT Commenter]

Alec Pierce, wide receiver.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

Any value.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm so sorry. I don't.

[PFT Commenter]

Not familiar.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, I. I don't. I don't. Okay, maybe you're a Fan of gotten Stephen in here.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

He's got a program for that. Houston. Got to tell you, hot take care of this is called part of my take. I think C.J. is going to regress even more.

[Big Cat]

Even more and more. Wow.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Now, listen, I, I, I'm, I, I don't like to say that because they have that new offensive coordinator. Nick. Nick Kaylee. Nikki Kaylee. Nick Kaylee.

[PFT Commenter]

Nikki Haley.

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, it's not Nikki Haley. That's the presidential candidate. Wow, those smelly salts. No, Nikki Kaylee, he's the Rams. Patriots. He's a Patriots guy, right, Hank? Yeah. Okay. So that, like, when I see a change, when I see a change in offense, I'm like, oh, what's going to happen here? Yes, change something. But he doesn't have any receivers anymore. He's got Nico, and that's it. I just think he's going to regress even more. And you know what really bothered me about him? I'm bringing a little bit of my personal issues, and I'm gonna bring it about this, keep it about this podcast. Do you remember when he big brothered Caleb after last year? That really annoyed me. Like, cj, who do you think you, you're not allowed to big brother somebody. I mean, even Caleb was like, dude, what are you talking about? When he was like, hey, man, just you be. You just keep painting your nails, bro. Like, don't let the haters get you down. You know you want to cry in the. Go crying. Go hug your mommy. It's cool, man. Like, just keep your head up. It's cool. Cool. It's cool. All right. All right, man. Like, it's not okay. It really bothered me.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, this is the Titans. Okay. We're still in the AFC South. Sorry this is taking so long. I'll. I'll speed it up. We don't have to draft any Titans because they're all available on waivers after.

[Big Cat]

Good call.

[Jerry O'Connell]

AFC West. Denver is so interesting to me.

[Big Cat]

That.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Cortland Sutton is such a solid fourth, fifth round pick. Bonex leans on that man. If we miss Jaden, we're open to the universe. Bo Nix is. It's. He's gonna have a monster season, so we're not gonna panic if we miss him. What's interesting is the backfield in Denver because J.K. dobbins, who was there RB1 for all right, for all purposes, had nine touchdowns last season. And I know he's old and like Che really tried to talk me off of JK similar to his Saquon take last season. But it might be interesting to take JK and RJ to have that Denver backfield. RJ being that the rookie, the Central Floridian guy, Evan Ingram is also interesting if we miss brock in the second. Oh, he had the number when he had that 100 yard game against Bears last season. Also, you know what, if you, if you live in a household where you're only allowed a certain amount of quarters every Sunday, you know, Sunday, Monday, Thursday, Sunday, Monday. Let's say you get like three quarters a week, like Thursday through Monday. That's it. The flex teams. You really get like 2/4 of those teams because it's usually Sunday night. And I mean like just a hypothetical, your wife watches 90 Day Fiance on 90s, so you go to the other TV and your wife is occupied. So you don't have to like entertain her or sit with her. You can hide because she's like, she's locked in. Yeah, she's like taking a hit off the vape and watching 90 Day Fiance and like doesn't want even want you there there. And so you can get like two quarters of whatever the Sunday night free football.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Sunday night game is. And I think Denver's gonna get flexed a lot this season, so. I like Denver Raiders. Shaved head. Brock is going to be our guy.

[PFT Commenter]

I think it's different. Yeah.

[Big Cat]

Second. Second round.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I know. Again, I was wrong about Darren Waller. Apologize. You know, he was going through that divorce with a WNBA player. I don't judge people physically, but she's attractive, you know? Pay them what you owe them. What were the T shirts? Pay us what you owe us.

[Big Cat]

Yes.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What was the T shirt password?

[Big Cat]

Wait.

[PFT Commenter]

Pay us what's ours.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I didn't see that shirt on the bar.

[Big Cat]

I don't think. Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You didn't have that. A lot of Saratoga gear. You had a lot of us. Maybe. Maybe you should get that on there. Maybe shirts that say, stop throwing dildos.

[PFT Commenter]

I don't know.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Spitballing here. Cut that part out. Ashton Genty. Of course. There's no secrets there. He's really gonna move. He. He might even be top three after that hit against that Niners. Remember in preseason?

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Just trucking.

[PFT Commenter]

People should have won the Heisman.

[Big Cat]

We always said that.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, you know what? I'm actually proud of the Raiders this season. They immediately got rid of that finger in the butt guy.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You know, by the way, we. We. We. We never heard what they did. You know, I shouldn't say that.

[PFT Commenter]

Oh, yeah, allegedly.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Allegedly. We never heard what he did. But I gotta tell you, they made, like, media made it seem like he put his finger in another man's penis.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. He kept saying it was weird. It was really weird.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

And he has a track record on camera during games of checking the oil.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So it made me think he was, like, in a sh. Because, like, if somebody, like, what's the thing where you, like, tap people?

[Big Cat]

Like, sack tap.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Like, that's not, like, weird.

[Big Cat]

No.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's like.

[Big Cat]

That's just guys being dudes. Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's like.

[PFT Commenter]

It's the straightest thing you can do.

[Jerry O'Connell]

But they made it seem like he, like, went up to someone in a shower and just went, like, gusto him.

[PFT Commenter]

Yep.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, but, like, literally.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

They also had a clip of him where he was sniffing his finger. Do you remember that clip? No happening. It was really. So I'm proud of the Raiders for. For doing that, for getting rid of him. Dante Thornton seems to be someone who keeps coming up on my. I think it's just on X that I see him. Dove Kleiman keeps, like, showing clips of him. Is Doug climbing a Person.

[Big Cat]

No, we. I don't think.

[PFT Commenter]

No, I don't think he ever was. But the former Dove Climbing sold his account to the new Dove Climbing.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So is it like an AI.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, it feels that way.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I. I just wish it wasn't in my feed so much. Should I unfollow? I mean. Yeah. Oh, you know what?

[PFT Commenter]

I'm gonna mute him right now.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

Start a movement. Mute Dove.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I do have a theory about rookies.

[Big Cat]

I'm gonna stretch real quick.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I just.

[Big Cat]

Don't worry. My back is just.

[Jerry O'Connell]

If you yawn.

[Big Cat]

I'm not yawning. I'm having a great time. I might be back. Is locking up. These are. These are hard chairs to sit in.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay. I do have a. I do have a theory about rookies at the Raiders. Okay. And it's because. It's because it's like our halftime.

[Big Cat]

This is a halftime. You know, it's like a. It's a. It's a three and a half hour game. You need a halftime.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We're not even like a quarter. Done. I do have a theory about rookies at the Raiders. I think they are going to thrive. Okay. Because Chip Kelly has been in the college game and he knows how to talk to these young guys.

[Big Cat]

Pete Carroll.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Pete Carroll.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

But Pete Carroll had. Has been in. In the pros for a while.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, but he knows how to talk to guys.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I know, but fantasy is an offensive game, and I think I'm trying to make a point here. Chip Kelly, I think, is going to know how to talk to these rookies.

[Big Cat]

All right?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay. Wow.

[Big Cat]

Kelly's done very well in the NFL.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Sorry, Kelly. I didn't mean to interrupt you.

[Big Cat]

No, Chip Kelly's done very well in the NFL.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay. I'm not gonna say anything rude about people. Oh, Chargers. I have a question.

[PFT Commenter]

Chargers.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Who is the. Oh, yeah, Shane. I was actually talking to Shane about this yesterday. Shane's gonna get on Mike. Who is the wide receiver? One with the Los Angeles Chargers? Lad. Okay, so Lad draws Sir Tan from the Broncos. He draws McDuffie from the Chiefs. I don't think so. I think he's mostly working out of the slot. Okay. Like a Cooper cup type of. So who draws. I mean, like, the AFC west is a. A stacked division.

[Big Cat]

Who.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Some sort of announcement. It wasn't like an earthquake or anything, right?

[PFT Commenter]

No. They're calling somebody the mess hall.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I think it doesn't like who. Who draws the McDuffies and the Sirtans.

[PFT Commenter]

If they're working on the outside.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We got a rookie, Trey Harris, out of Ole Miss or K. Andre Lambert Smith. All right, well, hearing that lad becomes more attractive to me. I do have a problem with Lab McConkey when you guys did suggest that we drafted him last season and we did, and he did extremely well for us. So great call on that. That said, he's now going in. Like, I, I think he's going in the third round, right? I, I think he's going in the third round. I, I, I feel like I'm like a, like an elderly person walking into Starbucks for the first time. It's like, what Kavi I, I can't pay for. We bought him in the eighth round. Like, I, it's like coffee's $5.

[PFT Commenter]

What?

[Jerry O'Connell]

It was a nickel.

[Big Cat]

We need to get us into a dynasty league.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I don't do that. Dynasty.

[Big Cat]

I don't even know that would have been affixed to it, you know, picking someone.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, but I just feel like with like, lad, it's like part of the.

[PFT Commenter]

Thrill of lad last year was you felt like you were getting a great deal. Yeah, like, I'm so smart.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Now. He wants to.

[PFT Commenter]

Now you gotta pay for it.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. Take him like in an early round. It's like, go home and get your shine box, dude.

[Big Cat]

Like, nice.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Get out of here. If we get Brock and we get Jaden, if we get our dream team, we're going to be RB hunting in like the fifth round. And if Amar Amari and Hampton is there, it's going to be really exciting. Shane is also nodding his head. Oh, God. Is Slater going down going to affect Justin Herbert at all, you think?

[Big Cat]

Think I would say so.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. I would say so as well. So that's, that's a problem in drafting Justin. I also like a Marion because, you know, his competition only has one eye. And, you know, you, you know, I'll, I'll keep an eye on Naji, but, you know, you just got to keep your focus on winning it.

[PFT Commenter]

How many Naji Harris themed fantasy names are there going to be this year? Probably a lot, actually.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Naji should be able. He should get traded to Tampa. He should be Buccaneer.

[Big Cat]

We're. We're Raider.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm just not, I'm just not seeing Naji doing.

[PFT Commenter]

They run at the eye formation.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.

[Big Cat]

Can we get a laugh track for.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Some of these Chiefs? We're only going to draft Xavier Worthy. 6th round. Such a steal. Rashi Rice.

[Big Cat]

What was that laugh memes. That was a good joke. Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Rashi, is he gonna be, is he gonna be 100 coming back.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

So is he gonna be on the field 100 of the time or.

[Jerry O'Connell]

They say he might be ready week one. That's what was happening last time I had Internet, but crazy that he got into that. It was friendly fire that, that injured him. Oh, let me ask.

[PFT Commenter]

You've been tweeting all week?

[Big Cat]

Yeah, we've also been here for like maybe 24 hours.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Guys.

[PFT Commenter]

You've been online most of the time.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Help me out here. I haven't had sleep. I'm high on smelling salts. Oh, let me ask you something. You have a season ending injury. Okay. Yeah, I hate season ending injuries. If it comes from one of your teammates, is it like, does it hurt more? Yeah, it hurts more.

[PFT Commenter]

Definitely.

[Big Cat]

I think hurts more for the person who injured him.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Right.

[Big Cat]

Like Mahomes got to be mad at himself.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, I, I have a hot take on tight ends at, at the Kansas City Chiefs. And I want to be careful how I word this because I know it's scary. First of all, I listened to your Taylor Swift interview. Little upset that your Taylor Swift interview didn't really respond to me being the fantasy manager. Wasn't sure if he was a real awl, but respond responded very positively to Adam Schefter being the fantasy manager. That was very funny. I was really angry that I saw the amount of views that other sports end quote. Podcasts got because they had music stars on their podcast and it's like it's not a sports podcast anymore.

[Big Cat]

Right.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You know what I'm saying? Like you're not allowed to say we're the number one sports podcast. Podcast. You're, you're, you're going into. Yeah, you're going into music. So I want to ask all awls and I've, I've got your back. I sign things if you send them to me. Like I'm like an awl. Like, let's really like memes help us out. What do we do? Do we retweet this?

[Big Cat]

Do we subscribe to the, to, to our YouTube?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Subscribe to YouTube. How do we beat that podcast with this fantasy preview. This is a real. What we're doing is sports here.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, I, I, I, as real as it gets.

[Jerry O'Connell]

This is sports. We're not entertainment. It's not music. We're not dropping albums like and like dates that we're dropping album. It's like this is sports. What means. What can we do to make this the number one? What can the AOLs do to help.

[Big Cat]

Subscriber, subscribe, unsubscribe, subscribe to the YouTube. But also, Jerry, look into that camera.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Your camera, and just.

[Big Cat]

Just tell people to subscribe.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Hey, please. Very passionately, please subscribe and repost this. Let's make this the number one sports podcast.

[Big Cat]

We're.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We're really doing sports here. Okay. Thank you.

[Big Cat]

That was really. I felt that.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I have a theory about tight ends at the Chiefs. They went through drastic weight loss. A lot of athletes going through drastic weight loss, they post a lot on social media of them sweating and working out, and they're on the COVID of, like, health magazines and all that stuff. Guys, we know they're using nar. We know they're using prescribed drugs to lose weight, right? Undoubtedly.

[Big Cat]

Who. Who.

[Jerry O'Connell]

People who have had Kelsey. They're. They're coming to camp, so I don't.

[Big Cat]

Know if Kelsey's epic.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You think they just naturally lose weight these days? I don't.

[PFT Commenter]

Do you think Kelsey was ever fat?

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I, I, a storyline has been that he's come back super in shape and all that stuff. Are you telling me that's the story.

[Big Cat]

He might have worked out?

[Jerry O'Connell]

You think it's simply just working out?

[Big Cat]

Yeah. For a football player. Yeah. All right.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Because I had a theory. I know people are on Ozempic. You eat less.

[Big Cat]

You need. Hurts.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It. It hurts like muscle mass and stuff. Like, you're not as strong, right?

[Big Cat]

Yeah. That's why I don't think he probably took it.

[PFT Commenter]

I think he's probably still lifting weights.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay. Is he like, like, are those. Are any of those people, like, pharma guys?

[PFT Commenter]

That's a good point.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, good point. Okay, you got us there.

[PFT Commenter]

You got us there, mate.

[Big Cat]

That felt. That did feel good, what you just did.

[Jerry O'Connell]

All right, the Eagles. Where's Max?

[Big Cat]

All right, we're going the NFC guys.

[Jerry O'Connell]

NFC East.

[Max]

We're starting with the NFC right now. That can't be true.

[Big Cat]

I am gonna have to piss at some point, but that's fine. You.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You want to go piss?

[Big Cat]

No, no, I want to do. Let's go. Let's rip the NFC piss dogs.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, Devonta in the fifth round is such a steal. I can't believe he's not getting more respect. Oh, tell us about AJ's hamstring, Max.

[Max]

He'll be fine. This is camp.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Hamstrings are, like, really frightening. I hurt mine water skiing yesterday. Did not get up. He'll be fine.

[Big Cat]

He'll be fine.

[PFT Commenter]

I heard a, a funny story about AJ Brown. I wish I brought this up to him on the podcast, but I heard that inside his house. The only pictures that he has anywhere in his house are of him playing football.

[Big Cat]

That's pretty sick.

[PFT Commenter]

And he's got him on, like, all his TV screens just playing highlights of A.J.

[Big Cat]

Brown.

[PFT Commenter]

That's actually exactly what you want from a wide receiver.

[Big Cat]

That's like, when wasn't there a story like, Kanye invite people over his house. He just plays album.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's, that is too.

[Big Cat]

Do you do that with, with standby me one behavior? No, that would be cool. That'd be a baller move.

[PFT Commenter]

Is that true, Max?

[Max]

A.J. brown better guy than Kanye, I'll say that.

[Big Cat]

Well, yeah, but I mean, I was.

[PFT Commenter]

Just, I didn't say he was a bad guy.

[Big Cat]

Max.

[PFT Commenter]

I don't think he's selling T shirts.

[Big Cat]

Don't get on the defensive.

[Max]

I'm just saying. I'm just saying.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm defending my guy, okay? The only thing scary about drafting eagles is that we all know they're gonna, they're a great team. I'm not insulting you, Max, but we all know they're gonna take, like, serious leads, and then what they're gonna do do for the rest of the game is just have Saquon take the ball down to the 30 and have Elliott just kick three points. So Elliott is actually someone who we should draft. Cowboys. Pickens is our must draft in.

[Big Cat]

Wow.

[PFT Commenter]

I do love watching him play.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I, I've got to tell you something about Pickens.

[PFT Commenter]

First of all, he's a little, he's, he's insane.

[Jerry O'Connell]

He's. I don't want to say that. That's such a harsh word. He's got, he's, he's Screw loose.

[PFT Commenter]

He's a live wireless.

[Jerry O'Connell]

But I want that. I want that. How exciting was it last season when AJ was like, reading books? Like, that's what you want from a wide receiver.

[Big Cat]

Yes.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, agree.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What you want a little crazy. You want them stripping off in the middle of a game and saying, I quit. I quit. I had relations with your wife. You want that?

[Big Cat]

You know.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So George Pickens is our must draft in the seventh.

[PFT Commenter]

Are you a little concerned about the fact that CD Lamb's there too?

[Jerry O'Connell]

No. I'm going to tell you why George Pickens is our must draft. Okay, I'm going to give you a list of who has been throwing to, to, to.

[Big Cat]

Oh, I like this. This is good research, Jerry.

[Jerry O'Connell]

One Mitchell Trubisky.

[Big Cat]

Okay. One.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Kenneth Pickett. One. Mason Rudolph. Justin Fields. Great quarterback. Great. And finally, the cherry on top is Russell Wilson. The man is due. Yeah, the man is.

[Big Cat]

You're right. Right.

[Jerry O'Connell]

The man is due. I just love it. There's a rookie named Jaden Blue who's probably going to be the RB1 in Dallas. He's going in the 11th round. Longhorn from Houston. This is his destiny. Jaden Blue, we will be drafting. Do you want to go wee wee?

[Big Cat]

No. No.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay.

[Big Cat]

Where. Where are we at, Giants?

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm. I'm. I'm gonna. I'm gonna pick this.

[Big Cat]

No, no, I don't. I'm having a great time, Giants. Wait, wait. Look at me. I'm having a great time.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay, good, good.

[Big Cat]

I look forward to this all year.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. God, it's funny. Like, you really come down from smelling salts. Like, you're up.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You come down, you need another sad and stuff, you know, let's get.

[PFT Commenter]

Let's give Jerry another.

[Max]

Just for the record, smelling salts is not a drug.

[Big Cat]

I'm just.

[Max]

I'm just putting that.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You swear it doesn't have addictive properties?

[Big Cat]

No.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So crazy. If I'm, like, in rehab.

[Max]

It is not a drug.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It would just be such a bummer if my kids are crying, like, drop me off and my wife is like, like, just go. Everyone's done with you. Just go. Yeah. Awls. Make this happen. This is a real sports podcast. Stephen Ch is in my head. Oh, God. It's Che, by the way. Sorry, I pronounced it incorrectly. Corrected me just seven times this weekend. Giants. I was really hot on Tyrone, Tracy, and Scatterboo just to have somebody named Scatter Boo on our team.

[Big Cat]

But, yeah, it's vibes.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Can't do anything with Russell Wilson throwing the ball. I can't even go to near, Near Malik. Near, near Malik. I will be interested when Jamis comes in week.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What are we guessing? Week four?

[PFT Commenter]

They might go to Jackson Dark.

[Big Cat]

But yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, they might go Jamis. If it is Jamis, I would say.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Probably week three, Week four, once Seamus is in there, whoever has.

[Big Cat]

It's.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's anybody's game. It's all those receivers, but I just can't wait for it. Like, you don't want to start off 0203 waiting. Like your. Your team hinges on whether Jameis Winston is starting. Just. Just can't do it. May pick up Jackson on waivers just for shits and giggles. Like, week three.

[Big Cat]

Cool.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Commanders, man. I got to tell you. Pft. You were really. You are really on one. I listen to every show. You'll never remember this. About a month back, you said, jerry, if you're listening this rookie out of the commander's camp who's the running back. And since we've been here, Robinson is no more on the team.

[PFT Commenter]

Well, he's probably going to be traded. He got deactivated.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Tell us everything about this rookie.

[PFT Commenter]

All right, Jakory, Crosby, Merritt. He goes by the name Bill. I call him Big, beautiful Bill. And he is very smooth.

[Big Cat]

Smooth.

[PFT Commenter]

He's a, he's a one cut guy. He got one counter run in the preseason game, took it to the house. He's a great, I think he's going to be a great running back. And I talked to somebody at the Commanders when we were there. I'm not going to say their name. They're in a position that would know. They said this guy is the best running back that we have on the roster.

[Big Cat]

He's talking about Adam Peters.

[PFT Commenter]

I'm not talking about Adam Peters.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Can he cat. Can he catch pass passes? Yes, he can.

[PFT Commenter]

Yes.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Because that was my big issue with, with Robinson.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Then we're drafting him. Listen, when I got here last time I had Internet he was going in the ninth round.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's probably going to be the sixth round now.

[PFT Commenter]

The problem now, the problem is it's gotten the hype on him, has gotten so much that he probably will be overdrafted now. But if you listen when I told you that was the time to buy on jcm.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, but we didn't have our draft then, so I, I don't know. I don't know what to say. NFC north, we're moving on. Oh, I think John Morton, their offensive coordinator, I think he'll continue the offensive greatness there. Looking like because we have the fourth pick, we will be taking Jameer Gibbs. We have a choice of Justin Jefferson or Jameer Gibbs.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I think we're gonna take Jameer Gibbs. It's so funny with Aman St. Brown. He's going obviously in the first round. It seems a little pricey to me because I think you're getting almost the same value with Jameson. Who's going like in the fifth round? Jameson Williams. So I think Jameson is one of those where we live in the fifth, sixth like one of ours flowing like open to the universe, open to intercoursing with, with, with anyone. And I think Jameson Williams will have double digit TDs this season and. Okay, we got to talk about the elephant in the room.

[PFT Commenter]

We already talked about the Eagles.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Now listen, it's not funny. It's not funny. Actually. No, no, none of those jokes. I was known as the fat kid from still am people when if I'm in a Bar and someone's drunk. Actually, they just yell bing. Bong at me.

[Big Cat]

But they used to yell.

[Jerry O'Connell]

They used to yell, fat kid from standby me. Hey, come here. Photo with the.

[PFT Commenter]

It's not funny.

[Big Cat]

It's not not funny.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And it would enrage me. So I actually don't go for those jokes. And listen, Adam Schefter would never ask you these questions if he was your manager. Dylan Schefter would never ask you these questions. And I have to ask, is Caleb Williams good at quarterbacking?

[Big Cat]

We're going to find out.

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, no, dude, that's not. This is the thing about a fantasy draft.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, we're going to find out.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's a yes or no question.

[Big Cat]

He's going to be drafted late. And there's a chance with Ben Johnson he could have a great year. But I can't give you a definitive answer right now.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Is he good at quarterbacking, yes or no?

[Big Cat]

I believe he is. Yes, I believe he is. But we, but I, but this is part of staying 6 out of 10 excited. I'm not going to say something crazy and be like, yeah, he's going to be insane this year.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Well, then we can't draft.

[Big Cat]

I just, I'm totally fine with that.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Based on what you're saying, we can't draft anyone.

[Big Cat]

What about Lake Late?

[Jerry O'Connell]

They're saying Roma Dunes day in the 8th and that seems like.

[Big Cat]

What about Luther Burden Late?

[Jerry O'Connell]

If, if your quarterback is a bad quarterback. I'm not drafting any of them.

[Big Cat]

I agreed, but he could be good.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You know what we never talk about on this podcast? And I got to bring it up because this is a real podcast. Awls. Click. Subscribe, please. Let's beat them. We're on smelling salts. This is a sports podcast. But you know what we never talk about is that between the two of you. Pft one.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, no, I know.

[PFT Commenter]

It's one year. You never talk about it, though one season. Jaden had a remarkable rookie season.

[Jerry O'Connell]

How often do you think about the.

[Big Cat]

Fact that PFT1 it's actually, it's kind of already like, Jaden was so good that it was already decided. It's more now that Hank could also win.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Well, it will be interesting to see what Coach Johnson does for Caleb. I, I now here's the, here's the thing. Jared Goff, he obviously, end quote, fixed Jared Goff, right? But Jared Goff had been to a super like Jerry. How much fixing did Jared Goff need? Yeah, does Caleb Williams need more fixing than Jared Goff?

[PFT Commenter]

You think that they should try to take Caleb Williams and change who he is as a person. Like, send him away for a while.

[Big Cat]

There are some. He needs to be changed. Yeah. He needs to get the ball out faster. He needs to realize when he's going to take a sack and not run backwards. But I think he's going to have a good year. I can't tell you I'm not going to be able to sit here and be like, jerry, you got to draft him. If I, If I felt that, I would tell you that this is an open. We're open to the universe. We have a free flowing conversation right now. I'm giving you my honest truth that I, I think he's going to be good, but I'm not going to sit here and be like, you have to drive drafted.

[Jerry O'Connell]

How could you wear a bear's hat to the commander's facility?

[Big Cat]

I don't know. I just had. I had like two hats that I brought. It was that or a Cubs hat?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

Do you think that was disrespectful?

[Jerry O'Connell]

I thought it was really disrespectful.

[Big Cat]

I don't think there's any. There's no right. It'd be if, if it were maybe like an Eagles hat. Yeah, I think it would be disrespectful.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. I didn't have a problem with it.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. What does it matter?

[Jerry O'Connell]

I went to see a Cubs game when I was in Chicago. I, I put on a Cubs hat. I've never rooted for the Cubs in my life.

[Big Cat]

Life. Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Just. It's about respect.

[Big Cat]

Respect, Respect. All right. Hey, I'll take that note.

[PFT Commenter]

I think it'd be more disrespectful if I, this year I went to Bears camp and I wore a commander set. That would be more disrespectful.

[Big Cat]

I think I wouldn't have a problem with that either.

[Jerry O'Connell]

All right.

[Big Cat]

Also, I don't really. I, I got to say, Jerry, I don't really think about what hat I put on in the morning. It's just whatever I brought.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You knew what you were doing.

[Big Cat]

I did not. I had like two hats that I brought on grit week.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Let me ask. Pft. Because it was. Because it was your camp.

[PFT Commenter]

I was fine with it.

[Jerry O'Connell]

But do you think Big Cat knew what he was doing?

[PFT Commenter]

No, I don't. I think I have like cat.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Like Big Cat had right there.

[PFT Commenter]

I think Big Cat had two hats. He wore his football hat.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay.

[Big Cat]

I do need more, pardon my take hats. That is something that I've got to work on. It also led don't have any.

[PFT Commenter]

It opened up some interesting conversations because, like when Jaden saw Big Cat.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

He was like, bears, huh? And Big Cat was like, yeah. And then Jaden had like a little smile on his face. He remembered the Bears game.

[Big Cat]

So I actually kind of almost punished myself. Myself. Yeah. I, I was actually taking like I was in the Game of Thrones. I was doing the shame thing. I was doing the walk of shame.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay. Still in the NFC North. Let's move on to the Vikings. Loving Jordan Addison this year. Yeah. He's getting a suspension for three games, I think.

[PFT Commenter]

Yep.

[Jerry O'Connell]

But it was dui. Nobody was hurt. Right.

[Big Cat]

It was just, I think this one was for.

[PFT Commenter]

It got downgraded. I think it was called wet reckless.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

Which is like you, you sounds like a water park. You got a dui, but you have a good lawyer.

[Jerry O'Connell]

But still, I think he could have a 10 season.

[Big Cat]

That sounds like he pushed like a fat kid on a water park. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Wet Reckless. That's the Nikki Smoke special.

[Big Cat]

I didn't mean to say fat.

[PFT Commenter]

Let me ask you a question, Jerry.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Mr. Fantasy Expert. See if your computer can answer this one. Is J.J. mcCarthy good at quarterbacking?

[Jerry O'Connell]

I don't think he's going to have a good season.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I, I don't think he's going to have a good season. That said, just based on value and where high end wide receivers are going, I, I do like drafting Jordan Addison and I think that has something to do with his suspension. We're just getting a deal, you know, But I don't think J.J. mcCarthy is going to have an incredible season. I think it'll be okay. Which is going to get me to my next pick that I'm interested in. Jordan Mason, I think is in the eighth round.

[Big Cat]

It beefs up their offensive line.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You know, I, I think Aaron Jones, who is older, I mean, senior is in his name. I think, I think Jordan Mason will be taking over RB1 duties there.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And also, you know what? I love the fact that they have, I love their cheerleaders.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I love, I love what they do.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

It just get everybody involved.

[Big Cat]

We're open to the universe.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We're open to the universe.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

That and I want to support that.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And I know some people, you know, are like, they, they can't do that, but I like it. I want to be a part, I want to watch those cheerleaders.

[PFT Commenter]

You know what? Anyone that gets mad that there's a male cheerleader, they're telling on themselves for never having watched football before.

[Big Cat]

Correct.

[PFT Commenter]

There's been dude cheerleaders for centuries.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

There actually should be, like, a standardized test for people who are heavy into politics. Yeah. That they have to take before they comment on sports.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. It's also, I do want to blame, like, the media, like, the click media that we have now, because the photos they use are like, like, of, like the photo they use of that dude. It's like, he's really like, hey, it's like, like they can't use. I'm sure there's a photo. He's a very handsome man. I'm sure he's very athletic. Like, we actually have very similar hair, he and I. Like, like, if I took a photo. If you took a still of me right now and I was like, hey, like, they'd be like, like, look at that. Look at Jerry. He looks so. He looks something in that photo. You know, it's a real podcast.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Real podcast. They don't talk about this on that other podcast, so I want to support that. Okay. NFC North Packers. Josh Jacobs could be, could be one of our running backs. He's such an unsung stud. I just love him. And no other receivers. Can't stand any Green Bay receivers except for this Matthew golden guy who's going late, late ninth, tenth round and is going to be a stud. Okay. NFC West Rams. I mean, I, I, I cannot pick up any players who Jimmy G. May be throwing to. I just can't do it.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So I think we're going to be passing on all Rams.

[Big Cat]

Wow.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I just. What do you want? I'm your manager.

[Big Cat]

No, no, you're giving us the. We're opening the universe.

[Jerry O'Connell]

That was such a funny episode when you were talking about we're now in the, like, spooky medicine.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Holistic medicine.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Holistic medicine. It was so funny. Oh, I do. I always tell you guys because you're my first loves, but I was, after I came on here, I don't know if you recall, it wasn't sure if Matthew Stafford was going to come back to the Rams last season. So in my fantasy recap, I said, I listened to about 17 hours of Kelly Stafford's podcast to see if I could glean from her whether they were going to stay. And I said, I think they're going to stay. I was sort of ahead of it. Kelly Stafford invited me to be on her podcast.

[Big Cat]

You did it, right?

[PFT Commenter]

I. Oh, you should. And you should find out how healthy his back is. Kelly.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's actually a pretty good podcast. It's about, like, yeah. From the spouse's percepts perspective. Like football. It's, like, interesting.

[Big Cat]

Will you be able to do it or you knew it before or after Good morning Football this year.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Is that on the air anymore?

[Big Cat]

It is, yes. Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I, I didn't mean that. I said slight. I, I wasn't sure if it was.

[Big Cat]

No, that's good. We're gonna keep that in so you don't get invited back.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm sorry. I, I know everyone there. I, you know, the, the guy who I knew who was there left. Yeah, a bunch of people left the. So the people who were texting me to come do that show are not there, so I wasn't sure. Yeah, her podcast is called the Morning after, but it's like the morning after football. It's not, like, abortion related.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

That would be crazy. Could you imagine if it was all like, yeah, yeah, the Morning after, Like, what to do?

[Big Cat]

Like, yeah, yeah, abortion.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, God. They'd have.

[Big Cat]

By Hank.

[Jerry O'Connell]

All right, so they, they'd have, like, Ray Carruth on.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Would you say Kelly's your plan B if you can't get on? Part of my take.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Good one. But it is not. I just want to say it's a great podcast. It's not an abortion podcast. Should we go to the bathroom?

[Big Cat]

No, no, keep going. I want you to go. I'm listening. I'm right here.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Okay. NFC West.

[PFT Commenter]

We talked about the messages real quick.

[Big Cat]

I had a lot of them.

[PFT Commenter]

Okay. This is so lot from Dana Beers. I didn't know that Dana could write. All right, we're good.

[Jerry O'Connell]

This is such a joke. Like, I'm interested.

[PFT Commenter]

I want to know. NFC West.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Let's. I'm just listening to the story. By the way, I'm hearing dribbling. You might want to check for another stone, dude.

[Big Cat]

I mean, Jerry, you, You, you fly when you're on one of those flights where you have to take a piss and you're like, God, this flight will never end.

[Jerry O'Connell]

This is real sports, guys. This is a real podcast. I'm really asking the awls make this number one.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, let's go.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Let's beat.

[Big Cat]

We love Jerry.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Great. If they had to, like, if they're like, numbers person was like, okay, so we were number two. This podcast part of my take, Jason, remember you were on it last year. You were kind of hungover. Yeah, yeah. They were number one. They were, like, kind of coming after you, but not really. I wouldn't even worry about it. I think it was a one and done. Let's Awls let's make it happen. And really means the only thing is to click subscribe.

[Big Cat]

Like, can't they, like, repost? Tell someone, tell a friend, take your girlfriend's phone, subscribe from her word of mouth.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Like, what is this, the 1920s? Is this like a radio drama? Like, shouldn't there be like some sort of, like, repost or something?

[Big Cat]

There should be a repost. Yeah. Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Niners are really interesting for fantasy. Ricky Piero is going to be the wide receiver one. And he's going as late as the eighth round. Hey, when are they going to stop saying he was shot?

[PFT Commenter]

Never, never, never.

[Big Cat]

Would you. If you got shot, would you tell. Would you stop telling people that?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Well, no, I'm not telling you. It's just like, every game is like. And Perso with a pickup of 10 yards. That'll move the chains, you know he was shot in the chest.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Thank you. Gavin Newsome. I can actually Pelosi. Gavin Newsom's California people get shot in the chest, but he lived. And that's pickup for 10 for Pearson.

[PFT Commenter]

They did stop saying that. Brian Robinson got shot.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Huh. Nancy Pelosi, cannons.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Actually, you know, I. I don't want to judge people physically, especially our political leaders, but you are absolutely correct about that.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And it's so funny. I look at that photo. There's that one beach.

[Big Cat]

Oh, yeah, the beach photo. Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

By the way, love our political leaders. They do a great job. There's a lot of turmoil. So I do respect people for their political and mental acuity and prowess. But are those real? Yeah, I think so.

[PFT Commenter]

They're real.

[Big Cat]

I think they're. I think they're natty heavies.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Speaker Pelosi. That is incredible.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, incredible. I don't know why that her husband is like. Like inviting guys into his house. That's a joke. Theorist. That's a joke. He broke in. I'm joking. Juan Jennings is too old. I'm so sorry, but he just is. He's too old to draft. Not taking McAffrey at all. We'll be picking up Isaac G. You know, he's starting about 10 games. Hey, what is German PR? What is it? What is PRP? What does it mean?

[PFT Commenter]

Platelet rich. Plasma.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What?

[PFT Commenter]

They take your blood.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What was the first word?

[Big Cat]

Platelet.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What does that mean?

[PFT Commenter]

They take your blood, then they spin it around and then they take the top stuff. That's the platelet. That's a plasma. That's at the top. And then they inject it into you.

[Big Cat]

It's got, like, makes you faster.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. Healing ability.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So it's got healing abilities.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We're still not drafting Christian McCaffrey. Okay.

[PFT Commenter]

Cardinals retirement rumors went away pretty quick on Chris Christian.

[Big Cat]

The walls.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I. I can't do it, guys. I'm sorry.

[PFT Commenter]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I can't do it. Cardinals, NFC West. If we need a cute quarterback, if we've missed everybody. Josh Allen, Jaden, Bo Nix. Kyler Murray's a fun pickup. Is he? Yeah, he was top 12 quarterback. He's like, fun to watch. Cannot draft. Draft Marvin Harrison again. That was another mistake I made last season. He was maybe our second round pick. I'm so sorry about that.

[Big Cat]

It's okay. Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I just don't think he can do much with McBride there. McBride is interesting as always. If Brock and Kettle are gone, just.

[PFT Commenter]

For the record, we'd like to state that we are a pro Marvin Harrison podcast.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, I know. You're, like, afraid of him. We're allowed.

[PFT Commenter]

No, I'm not afraid. I respect his father.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Not at a car wash. We don't have to worry about any of that stuff. I'm just saying I'm allowed to, as a fantasy expert say I. Look, I think he would say I was disappointed with my number last season. This isn't like. Like, this isn't like. I'm not like. Yeah. This isn't like a fight at a car. Right.

[Big Cat]

What's the worst that could happen is dad shoots you. Then we could say Jerry o'. Connell. Nice pick. He got shot in the chest.

[Jerry O'Connell]

You know what? I would love to draft Connor, but I just think he's too old. He is a stud. I can't do it, Seattle. NFC west, you know, Do I. Do I want to draft jsn? Yeah. Can I watch Sam Darnold throwing to him? I'm not sure I can. I mean, JSN is going to have a 1200 yard season. Oh, fullback alert. They have they drafted a fullback. Robbie Outs. Outs.

[PFT Commenter]

It sounds right.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Can't draft any of their running backs. They just get injured so much. Kenneth Walker, Jerry.

[PFT Commenter]

They run out of the eye formation. You know who can't do that? Najee Harris.

[Big Cat]

You like that?

[PFT Commenter]

Pipe it in. Pipe it in.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Yeah, it's good.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Such a good one. Oh, this hearing about this rookie Tori Horton out of Colorado State. I don't know if Dove Climan made me look at him, but like, hearing he's like that robot is in my head. Russian misinformation. What a joke. But hearing that he's getting all the wide receiver, two reps. Tori Horton, rookie And my friend who's a huge Seattle fan, keeps saying, you gotta draft Elijah Arroyo, that tight end. But I was wrong about Darren Waller, but he was getting divorced from that snitch.

[PFT Commenter]

That.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What? Snitch. She snitched out. She said Caitlin Clark wasn't in the meeting.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right.

[Jerry O'Connell]

That was some snitch.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, that was snitched.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And then tried to say it was a joke. Yeah, that's snitch.

[Big Cat]

That's snitch behavior.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, behavior. Sorry. Still, like, attracted. Throws a football extremely well.

[Big Cat]

Zach.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. You got to get a pay us what you owe a shirt on the barstool store. You just have to. Yeah, that's gotta happen. Okay. Panthers, NFC South. I. You know what? I want a couple Panthers on our team this year. I want to watch them. Yeah, Don't. Don't you want to watch?

[Big Cat]

Absolutely.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It could be TMac, man. He's going to be a top three. I think he's going to be top three. Three wide receiver. I know I mispronounced his name last time I was here. Tatoria.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, just go. Tmac.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Tmac. Tatoria. I think it's Tatoria. And you know what? I'm messing up everyone. Chuba. Chuba.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, you can kind of choose your own adventure on that one.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Are you sure it's chubba? I don't like to do those. Like, chuba, chuba, chuba. It really did annoy.

[PFT Commenter]

It's still the Cuban missile.

[Jerry O'Connell]

When people yell like, hey, fat kid from Stand by Me. It really, like, don't.

[Big Cat]

Hey, so don't do that. Wait, is this my camera? Don't. Do not say fat kid from Stand by me when you see Jerry o'. Connell.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, the Bing bongs are so fun. By the way, about, I'd say a month after I violated Hank, finally, my wife was like, what the. Who is. What is this Mr. Bing Bong thing? What is it? I mean, we'd be like, at the dentist and, like, a dental assistant would be like.

[Big Cat]

You go to the dentist with your wife?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, sometimes we go in for a dual cleaning.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's adorable.

[Big Cat]

Like a dual massage.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Well, you get, like a groupon. Chubba, Chuba, Chuba, Chuba is going to have. Going to have a good season. And Coach Gruden saying, their old line really got me wet.

[Big Cat]

I'm not.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Also about Carolina, you know, they're going to be coming from behind, so their offense is going to be really fun. Buccaneers. Oh, God. I wasn't feeling Mike Evans, but Che Told me that Mike Evans is going to break that record and that's going to be their priority on the team. So. All right. Mike Evans. I thought he was a little long in the tooth. We're definitely drafting Amica Egbuca. Pronounce that correctly. That rookie out of Ohio State in the. He's going like in the eighth round. Chris Godwin. Here's a trick. We're drafting Chris Godwin.

[Big Cat]

I like that.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm gonna tell you why.

[Big Cat]

Why?

[Jerry O'Connell]

He goes right on our IR and we get an extra player. Week one.

[PFT Commenter]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We're drafting him. He's, like going really late because he's injured. And I think that offensive coordinator Guzzard Gizzard.

[PFT Commenter]

You've been talking too much to Che Grizzard. You're all over the.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Which is a cool name. I think he's gonna do. Do a good job. I think the Tampa offense will stay there and love Baker. Who's going in the 12th, man.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

If we miss everybody. Saints.

[Max]

Wow.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What a quarterback competition going on there between Show Enough and Rattler heating up. None of them. Kendra Miller is an interesting waiver wire pickup. Because I don't think Alvin Camara is going to finish the season.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, it's just going to be like.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Three or four games. Be like, I gotta. I'm not doing this anymore. Falcons.

[PFT Commenter]

What Michael Thomas did.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Just like.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, I'm not feeling it.

[Big Cat]

I'm just done.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Hey, listen, I. I get it. Like, if you think no one's watching, it's like, why am I risking. Why am I doing this?

[Big Cat]

Who.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Who am I doing this for? Drake London. Little inconsistent for. For my taste. Bijan. Obviously everyone's drafting him and the computers are not feeling Michael Penis. Okay, that's it, guys. That's my fantasy preview.

[Big Cat]

Wait. No Kyle Pitts.

[Jerry O'Connell]

No staying away from the Falcons. And you know what? Kyle Pitts. Two. Two seasons ago.

[Big Cat]

Not our.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Not our Darren Waller season. But we drafted Kyle Pitts. Let down. Lets us down every year. I'm not falling for it again.

[PFT Commenter]

Open to the universe.

[Jerry O'Connell]

A fuma can't be fooled again. I know I'm supposed to be open to the universe.

[PFT Commenter]

You're not open to the universe with pits.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm not open to the universe with copits.

[PFT Commenter]

What were your most important notes that you made? Because I. You do have a lot of red pen markings on these papers.

[Jerry O'Connell]

That was if changes happened after I printed it out. I was at the hotel. And the hotel printer made you pay 10 cents a page.

[PFT Commenter]

You didn't go to Kinko's FedEx Skinkos.

[Big Cat]

Why don't you read this line? No butt stuff on the Raiders. No butt stuff with my wife, either. You a butt guy, Zach?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, that was.

[PFT Commenter]

How's she doing?

[Jerry O'Connell]

My wife?

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. Respectfully.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Well, we're, like, married and stuff.

[Big Cat]

We're. It's.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's going well.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Our kids are older. My kids are. They're 16, so they're, like, coming home a little way.

[PFT Commenter]

She's doing really well financially, your wife. You guys have separate bank accounts, but financially, she seems like she's is killing it.

[Big Cat]

These notes are so funny. Okay, Eyes, parentheses, both of them are important for football and life. I was under the Naji Harris notes.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, yeah. I was just thinking, like. Just thinking about Nazi stuff. The eye formation was the best, though. You win is always PFT. But it's funny. My kids are 16, so it's the summer, they've been coming home, like, lit up, like, wasted. And, like, rehab is calling. It's so funny. They're so annoying, too, like teenagers. Like, I'll tell you what teenage girls do. They come home, it's 1am they run to their rooms. My wife has passed out. And I'll be like, hey, girls, what's going on? And they're like, we're in the bathroom. Like, don't come in here. And I'll be like, okay. And then I'll hear, like. And I'll be like, girls, are you okay? And they'll be like, we have food poisoning. And I'll be like, you don't fuck. Like, why are you lying? And they're like, gas station sushi, Leave us alone. And I'm like, guys, it's the fucking lying that makes me so angry. Like, stop with that. Oh, God. Another time, I went to pick up my fucking drunk daughters at a party. They called up. I know this isn't a very CPS friendly show, but I went to. They called up, and they were like, dad, come get. Come get us. So I came to a party. They were there. I have to walk into a teenage party, which is, like, already, like, predatory, you know? And I have to be like, hey, have you seen the o' Connell girls? Girls? And then, like, you know, it's like an episode of, like, you, Euphoria, where some kid on Fentanyl is, like, pointing to, like, a rave room. And I have to be like, girls, girls. And, like, my one daughter came out and she was like, you know, our other daughter's in there. And I'm like, well, get her, like. And my one daughter was like, I'm not drunk, Dad. I haven't been drinking. And I was like, okay, I didn't ask you. Just go get your sister. Her. And then they drag out my other daughter. It's like something from, like, a Vietnam.

[Big Cat]

Movie carrying her out.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And we get her in the car, and then I'm like, where's the car? And they're like, we left it at the. At the first spot. And I'm like, all right, well, we got to go get the car. We can't leave it on the street overnight. It'll get broken into, you know. Thank you, Gavin Newsome. Thank you, Ricky Pearsall. Afraid of getting Piersol down the street. You know, I'm joking, everyone. That's not my views, obviously. Although Nancy is cannons.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Booyah. But my other daughter was like, what are we doing? And I was like, we're. We're going to pick up the car. You said you weren't drinking. And she was like, God, I'm faded, dad.

[Big Cat]

Okay?

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm faded. And I guess that means hi these days. So it's like a nightmare in my house. I have kids who are seconds away from. I don't know, maybe I'll send them to that outdoor thing where they put kids in the wilderness with no phones and have to meet Twigs.

[Big Cat]

By the way, we didn't. We didn't cut Jerry short, because if you look, the falcons was only two lines.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I knew at this point you'd be like, let's wrap it up. I got to go do the yak. I got to go do the yak.

[Big Cat]

All right, so, Jerry, I have one last question for you. Oh, it's rollback question. R, B, A, C, K. Let me ask you. Take. No worries, no worries. I got this.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I got this part.

[Big Cat]

You do it, Zach. Is Zach coming? Awls.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Please make this the number one sports podcast. Sports podcasts are not sports podcasts. There's everyone in this room.

[Big Cat]

Is that. Oh, it's everyone.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. Zach, will you come up here, please?

[Big Cat]

Come up here, Zach.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, sit down.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It sort of gives up the surprise of who this is for, but who cares? Zach, it's been really fun bunking with you, man. I'm. I mean that from the. From the bottom of my heart. You're a nice guy. You call me sir again, and I'll kill you.

[Zach]

Sounds good, Jerry.

[Jerry O'Connell]

All right, this is a rollback poem. R, H, O, B, A C, K.com promo code. Take 20 off your first purchase. Q Zips. That's the quarter zip thing. Polos, hoodies, joggers, shorts. Rollback.com promo code take. Go right now. Rollback.com promo code, take. It's a poem.

[Big Cat]

Jerry, before you start. Start.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Interrupt my poem.

[Big Cat]

I'm having a great time.

[Jerry O'Connell]

This pump.

[PFT Commenter]

Thank you for doing this.

[Big Cat]

Yes, thank you.

[Jerry O'Connell]

This is a poem for Zach. Zacky, Zacky, Zacky. This is a poem for the man who works so hard and deserves all of his rosas. Zacky, Zaki, Zaki. This is a poem for the man who would take a bullet for the streamer. Last post us. Zach. Who the is that?

[Big Cat]

Los Polos.

[Zach]

Yeah, Great streamer.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Zacky, Zaky, Zaki, you have awesome takes, video game knowledge, and just the chillest of hangs. Zacky, Zaky, Zacky. All of this and he has still never stepped foot inside of a PF Changs. Gotta try those lettuce cups. Don't interrupt me. Zacky, Zacky, Zacky. You talk about all the hot button issues and never do you ever tiptoe. Zacky, Zacky, Zaki. We especially love it when you drone on and on about crypto. It's not real money. You can comment on that.

[Big Cat]

I agree.

[Jerry O'Connell]

All right. Not too much. Zaki, Zaki, Zaki. The boys put you to the test and with flying colors you passed. Zacky, Zaki, Zaki. You are a star in a show that will never be as good as the tennis podcast facts. Zacky, Zaki, Zaki, you made it to the big time making all these big time money. Zacky, Zacky, Zacky. And yet you still walk into McDonald's with your very own chicken nuggies. By O N. Zaki, Zaki, zaki. Many of your Mount Rushmore picks have not been busts, but they have been booms. Zacky, Zaki, Zaki. All that said, you're still really bad at buying costumes. It's not your thing. Zacky, Zach, Zacky. We watch as you gracefully navigate a disagreement or navigate a spat. Zacky, Zacky, Zacky. We watch as you awkwardly go for a hug after Baker Mayfield signs your stupid hat. That was weird, man.

[Big Cat]

It was a good hug brace.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Zacky, Zaky, Zacky. You came into the show with guns blazing, shooting off all your phasers. Zacky, Zacky, zacky. But no matter how hard you try, Time magazine still thinks you aren't as good as men in blazers. They got rapport.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, they do, yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

[Zach]

What's your mom.

[Jerry O'Connell]

She may want to mute this next part. Zaki, zaki, Zaki. You're loved by the awls across this nation and all the cities. Zacky, Zaky, Zacky. Having thoughtful and totally legal takes. Unlike that pedophile that titties. Zaki, zaki, Zaki. Yeah, times. You're the guy driving this train. You are the conductor. Zacky, Zaki, zaki.

We know you like to keep it clean. Zacky, Zacky, Zacky. We just want to know, did you get to that instructor on our Pilates machine? Huh? Did you her? Did you her, her?

[Zach]

We went on one first date, and we just went on a date. Hug in, hug out.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Not what we want to hear, Zach. We want to hear touchdowns. This the fantasy football preview. Touchdowns. Points, Points, points. Six points. Okay?

[Zach]

Yes, sir. Yes, Jerry.

[Big Cat]

No. Yes, Jerry.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And then we want it on that Pilates machine. Open to the universe. Do you understand me? And listen, if it doesn't happen here, we're what, Zach?

[Zach]

We're open to the universe.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, baby.

Zaki, zaki, zaki. So while at first you came off as quiet, demure, and even a little shy. Zaki, zaki, Zaki. You will forever be a part of PMT and only known as our intercourse guy.

[Big Cat]

Jerry, that was the best one you've done. That was the best. Whole fantasy preview. That was the. We've been doing it for what?

This.

[Big Cat]

I. It's got to be like five or six years now.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's not true.

[Big Cat]

[PFT Commenter]

He covered it all.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Great.

[Big Cat]

I do. I do genuinely love it. It goes long, and people be like, oh, you guys lost interest halfway through. We didn't. We just have to. With Jerry halfway through.

[PFT Commenter]

He was great. Jerry. He had done the work. He had sheets and sheets of notes. I wish that he had told all of his jokes because he cut out some gold.

[Big Cat]

How. How about the jokes I read? Yeah. Off his sheet after.

[PFT Commenter]

It's crazy.

[Big Cat]

He had some real.

[Hank]

Zach1.

[Big Cat]

Something about butt stuff.

[Zach]

I think there was a joke about butt stuff.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

And then there was the. It's important to have two eyes in both football and life. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

No, he. He could have done 15 minutes of pure Najee Harris material.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. So hopefully he comes back. It's also just been so much fun just living with him this week. Like, I watched him sleep for about 45 minutes this morning because I woke up before everyone, and it was beautiful. He's so peaceful and angelic and just fun to have around.

[PFT Commenter]

Jerry's a big hold court in your underwear guy.

[Big Cat]

Oh, yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

He'll stand in the middle of the room in his underwear just holding. Just talking to everyone.

[Big Cat]

He walked over to my bed and just was standing. I was laying in bed, so I was basically just staring directly at his penis. And he was just having a casual conversation with me, and it was great. Yeah, it's great friendship. All right, Hank.

[Hank]

I mean, it's been a great week at camp. Very fun. Just my body. I'm old My body's sore. Me and PFT played. We can. We can maybe send some clips if we. We played the worst game of tennis of all time and I couldn't move the next day. Yeah, it was fun, but it was ugly.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, you were Wednesday, you were like, I literally. Hank was either doing an activity or laying down. Yeah, like, he. He kept like, every time he was laying down, I was like, hank, what are you doing? He's like, I'm saving my energy.

[PFT Commenter]

How much time did you spend on the Blob yesterday, Hank?

[Hank]

The blob? We had a blob session with. With the producers and some of the behind the scenes people after. After the camp shoot was done, where it took me like six times to actually land on the blob to get blobbed. I kept hitting it and falling off and you have to climb back up. And I.

[Big Cat]

Right.

[Hank]

It was right before. Everyone's like, we need one. One more person's got to do it because it's hard. It's like everyone tries, but it's like, yeah, probably 10% people actually get blob. And Shane and Fasoli. I felt like a huge.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Too.

[Hank]

This is another kind of firefights. I finally got on and then I was like. I got really scared. I was like, what's about to happen to me? Like, Fasoli and Shane are about to launch me. Like, what if I land on my neck? Like, what if I land backwards? And then I just back flopped and now my back hurts. But it was fun. I went, Shane. Shane Sully did good. Did good work.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, they're. I mean, the blob. You guys were having a ruckus time. Shane was doing Jeff Hardy moves off the block. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Hey, Just chanting blob.

[Big Cat]

Find Jerry o'. Connell. Tell him to come in here.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I think he's rolling on the next.

[Big Cat]

Side with the Voice. What do you mean he's on cam with the. Yeah, go tell him. Tell him. Just go tell him to come on.

[Hank]

I need that hat.

[Big Cat]

Oldie, can you do that for us?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

Thank you. Yeah, yeah. Oh, wait, what? Yeah.

[Hank]

Oh, is he doing drop a pin?

[Big Cat]

Yeah, but he's got. We pft's got to go. He can go back on.

[PFT Commenter]

Busy, busy.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, yeah. Okay.

[Hank]

Oldies wearing a hat that says busy, busy. Gotta go.

[Big Cat]

Here. Yeah, and tell him he can go back. Yeah, there we go. Oldie's gotta go. He's gotta go. Gotta go. All right, so, yeah, you're. We're old.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah.

[Big Cat]

I think we're gonna play under 40 football.

[PFT Commenter]

I think our tennis match is going to actually impact the rest of our lives. I think we're just going to be feeling this way for forever.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Like, the inside of your legs from playing tennis, the stopping, the starting, also the keeping score was an issue for us.

[Big Cat]

That's the hardest part of doing these. Any of these camp games is you just realize there's so many muscles you never use because it's like, oh, why does. Why does my. Why do my abs hurt? Why do. Oh, because I played softball. Oh, why does I jumped off a blob? Why does my shoulder hurt?

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, everything.

[Big Cat]

Like. Like, oh, shit. I guess I don't use that.

[PFT Commenter]

That everything hurts. But I feel good. I love camp. I never want to leave camp.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. All right. What's your.

[PFT Commenter]

I love it here with all my camp friends. Not homesick at all.

[Big Cat]

What?

[PFT Commenter]

I wish I could stay here forever. My fire fest.

[Big Cat]

I.

[PFT Commenter]

It was going to be cracker barrel because that really. That tore me up because I'm. I'm a big cracker Barrel guy, and now I just don't know if I can do it anymore. But I guess my other fire fest is that I'm going down to the Jersey shore this weekend, and I'm going to have to party with some of the young kids down there, see if I still got it in me. I've requested 2C, but I don't think. I don't think he's gonna show up, but it's gonna be a good time.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, I actually think that's a totally fair request to just be like, hey, I.

[Hank]

That's your rider.

[Big Cat]

I'm not gonna be able to make this.

[PFT Commenter]

My rider is 2C. It's. Listen, is asking for a mixture of cocaine, MDMA, and ketamine too much.

[Big Cat]

Is that.

[PFT Commenter]

Is that a bridge too far? But, yeah, I'm gonna be partying with some of the. Some of the kids down there, and hopefully that'll be a good time. Time. But I am worried about the impending. I'm pre hungover. Yeah, that's a problem for me. It's like I'm already feeling the anxiety for the anxiety I'm going to feel on Saturday morning.

[Hank]

You got to get Roan, like, blackout drunk so he does something embarrassing. So when he's doing the recap show, he has to, like, cue himself up.

[PFT Commenter]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Or if I just do embarrassing with Roan, he won't bring that up. Yeah, the recap.

[Big Cat]

That's a really good.

[PFT Commenter]

Because Ron won't want to increase limited himself.

[Big Cat]

Yeah, yeah. Okay. My fire Fest is. I mean, it's similar to Hanks, but we did the swimming competition yesterday. I swam. What would you guys say? That's 100 yards?

[PFT Commenter]

Yes.

[Big Cat]

100 yards total.

[PFT Commenter]

100 yards total.

[Big Cat]

Puked.

[PFT Commenter]

You exerted yourself. That's your body. No, I went there and back.

[Big Cat]

There and back.

[Hank]

Oh, yeah.

[Big Cat]

I did the 2 LA. I did the two. Two legs. But yeah, it's. It's just. I think I'm just a puke guy. When I. Because this happened to me a month ago when we were playing softball. It was 90 degrees and I went four for four. So I was on the base path and I puked after the game.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, you went four for four.

[Big Cat]

I went four. No, this was in our. On our Wednesday night.

[PFT Commenter]

Oh, okay. But it's like a lot of fun.

[Big Cat]

But, yeah, it's really. It's demoralizing to puke after swimming 100 yards. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Well, it's your body telling you, you.

[Big Cat]

You.

[PFT Commenter]

You went 100% like you. You had nothing left to give.

[Big Cat]

The best way I could describe it is I think my body's at the point now where I'm like an old car. And when you go. You can still go 100 miles an hour. It's just like some hubcaps might fall off. The. The steering wheel is going to rattle. So for a short spurt, I can still. Can still reach maximum speed. My body just can't handle that speed.

[PFT Commenter]

And then it's. Your car is going to be affected for the next, like, six months. Months, based on what you did that one time, correct? Yeah, correct.

[Zach]

Zach, I've never been to summer camp before. This was awesome. But if I did have to have a fire fest of the week, we.

[Big Cat]

We.

[Zach]

We split in two teams, the Baja Blast and do teams. I think Max was a fantastic captain leading the team, picking the right stocks for everybody. Very stressful job. I think he did a fantastic job. But my personal fire fest was. I. I was. I was 58. So it was. There was his entire team. There was four other dhs, and then I was the fifth designated hitter on the softball team. And then it's just being that deep in the lineup was like, oh, 50h is a tough look.

[Big Cat]

That's.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah. Why wouldn't Max let you hit?

[Zach]

We had some guys. I will say there was a couple dudes that were in the infield. They did go over three.

[Big Cat]

I will take one.

[Zach]

I will take one for one as 50h, but being 50h was tough.

[Hank]

You got one for one and Max took you out.

[Jerry O'Connell]

No.

[Zach]

Everybody had to hit one. So I was like a participation swing. Went one for one on my participation swing.

[PFT Commenter]

Yes, but you got it just because 58.

[Zach]

It just felt, I felt deeper than a thousand. That was.

[Big Cat]

Seems like bad managerial work.

[Zach]

I think it was great, man. It was a high stress situation for Max there.

[Big Cat]

Every, every situation is a stress situation for Max. Okay, Jerry, Jerry's back. Welcome back. Fyre Fest of the Week. This has been a great week, Jerry. Thank you so much for coming.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Thank you. Thank you. Fyre Fest of the Week. It's definitely got to be when we were doing the swimming relay thing and watching Stephen Che swim. It was, I gotta tell you, it wasn't just like, typically somebody does something bad and it's like, funny. It was kind of depressing. He can't. Why was he in the swim relay? Who?

[Big Cat]

Cuz we wanted it for content. Max's call and, and they weren't going to win anyway on the swim relay. And Stephen Shay is very funny swimming.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I know, but I was came.

[Max]

Up to me and said, please put Stephen J in the swim.

[Big Cat]

I said, we'll put a funny guy. And you put a funny guy.

[Max]

I said that.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, but it was actually, it actually had a weird, it actually had a weird effect on me. It made me kind of, kind of depressed. Like. I want to teach Stephen how to swim.

[Big Cat]

What if I told you that that one Stephen Shea, his one and only New Year's resolution this year was to swim 100 laps? Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I think maybe for content. I really would like to get him into a pool and really like teach him how to swim.

[Big Cat]

He's been, he's, it's August 22nd, so his goal is to swim 100 laps. What would you say he's at that?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, he's not able to complete one.

[Big Cat]

He's at 19.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's not possible. He was walking. I, I saw him using his feet and walking. He's in any sort of deep water. The man is. I, I'm like, we all have children. Everybody should get their kids, like, like to learn how to swim. It's actually like rather important. He's got to learn to swim. It's just he's too old now and.

[PFT Commenter]

He, it's concerning because his body type should be that of a swimmer. I, I, he should be a really good swimmer.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I, I gotta tell you, when I saw him in the gol goggles, although his stickers were still on the goggles. I don't know if you noticed that, but their stickers were still on the lenses. No one Took them off. He. I thought for sure he was gonna, like, do it. Oh, by the way, anti fire fest. Big cat, you're really good swimmer.

[Big Cat]

Thank you. Thank you.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Were you on, like, a swim team or something?

[Big Cat]

I was not. Wow.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I mean, you did. You puked afterwards.

[Big Cat]

I puked afterwards, yeah, After a hundred yards.

[Jerry O'Connell]

By the way, when I. When I heard that you puked afterwards, I was really upset with the whole truck and the whole production. I was like, why weren't we there?

[Big Cat]

Okay, so the reason why. Because usually I am a puke on, like, I'll puke on camera guy. It wasn't. I didn't have anything to puke up, so it was. It wasn't funny. You know what I mean? Like, if I had. I didn't eat lunch. I didn't eat lunch. So it was basically like one puke of water and then me just sitting there curled over, like, throwing up phlegm. It was bad. So what? Like, I know when a funny puke. If it was gonna be a funny puke, I would have puked in your face. In Hank's face. For the England take.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. I have another fyre fest. Sorry, I'm really just unloading it now. I'm here for four days. It's. I am ready to go. The other fyre fest is we were playing werewolf last night, and I hosted. Whatever you call it. Hosted.

[Big Cat]

Moderated.

[PFT Commenter]

Moderated was on one.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah. And I was, like, putting on voices and making believe we were in Budapest and Istanbul.

[PFT Commenter]

All the different cities had hookers and they had junkies.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Right. Drugs and the werewolves parade. And I was doing voices and Nikki Smokes, who was there, big star here at. Here. Here at barstool in the beach house, really was enjoying me doing it. He was really funny, and he pulled me aside and went, you know, you're really good at. At voices and stuff. You should. You should, like. You should do something in show business.

[Big Cat]

You should have.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So that's coming from Nikki.

[PFT Commenter]

That's high praise.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Yeah, it's.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, also, another fire fest is for me. I'm. I'm. I'm. Since being here for four days, I've had a lot of fun bunking with you guys, but a lot of my speech patterns are. Are turning into. To Zach's. I'm. I'm turning into Zach a little bit with how I'm. How I'm talking. Sir.

[Big Cat]

Have you enjoyed being in the cabin with us?

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's been fun.

[Big Cat]

It's.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It's been a lot of fun. It really has. I mean, I. I love you guys. I. I love your show. Love you guys. And it's been. It's been a lot of fun. I didn't know what to expect. I thought there was a good chance I was going to dread doing this. I may or may not have caused, like, a separation with my spouse. Just.

[PFT Commenter]

Yeah, you told her that you were gonna be gone for seven days, but the camp's only four days.

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, that's not true.

[PFT Commenter]

What are we doing with the other three?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Honey, if you're listening to this, it was always four days. It was always four days.

[PFT Commenter]

But you think she's listening.

[Jerry O'Connell]

There's a possibility someone will say, oh, my gosh, it was only four days. He was lying. So. Yeah, no, it was four days. And hopefully my marriage will survive this.

[Big Cat]

Sherry, before you sat down, we were saying that you're big on having conversations in just your underwear. What's that about? We've had multiple conversations where you've just. I said at one point, you were standing and I was basically eye level with your dick because I was laying down.

[PFT Commenter]

I did notice you like to hold. Hold court in a room while basically nude.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Look, I haven't been nude, but we're in a. You know, I just. I'm open to the universe. I'm open. Yeah, I'm just an underwear guy. You know, I'm not. I'm not a nude guy. I mean, has anyone like. No, I'm not a nude guy.

[Big Cat]

He's an underwear guy. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

Now, have you ever.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And I adhered to all the rules. I. I only went number two in the. In the main one. I didn't go in our cabin. Oh, yeah, another fire fest. Sorry. I'm doing them all. We had a meeting.

[Big Cat]

Take a piss.

[Jerry O'Connell]

We had a meeting for one of the. One of the events and everything, and we were waiting for the team managers, and we were all there, and everyone was, like, waiting on Max, waiting on Max, Waiting on Max. And they said, where's Max? I mean, I'm going to say there was about 30 people there waiting. And Max said, he's in the bathroom. He's in the bathroom. And then we saw Max come out of the bathroom and saunter toward us. And, like, he just came in for, like, a high five immediately with me. And I was like, oh, wow, this is just not. I don't need to know all of this. You know, it's just. I mean, I guess nature calls, but.

[Big Cat]

Like, guys gotta poop. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

I don't think we should shame Max pooping.

[Big Cat]

Okay, Max, you have A fire fest to finish us off.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, sorry. Here, let me. Let me give Max the microphone.

[PFT Commenter]

Sure. You can share this microphone with me.

[Big Cat]

Jerry, we love you. I'm gonna miss you. I'm gonna have the feeling when you leave, like, a bachelor party and, like, the next day, and you're like, man, I. I really wish I was just with the fellows right now. That's gonna hit me hard tomorrow. Hard. Go ahead, Max.

[Max]

I would like to retire from being.

[PFT Commenter]

A captain at camp.

[Max]

That's a fire fest. And we've talked about it enough. We don't need to talk about it anymore.

[Big Cat]

All right? But I think we. I think he's gonna be captain next year.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Can I ask why you don't want to be captain, Max?

[Max]

I don't. It's a bat. It's a lose, lose. There's. There's no winning. There is winning.

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, you can't.

[Big Cat]

You could win.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I actually think you're really good at it. You.

[Max]

I'm really bad at it.

[Jerry O'Connell]

No, I gotta say, you, as someone who's been like, repping a lot of these things, you really fight for your team.

[Max]

Well, that. That's the problem, because it's. I either get yelled at for not fighting, and then when I start fighting, it's like, why. Why are you fighting?

[Big Cat]

That is a lose, lose.

[Jerry O'Connell]

It sucks.

[Max]

It sucks. And then people get. There's 16 people on a team, and there's, like, three events, so you got to put people to play in certain events, and then half the people aren't playing, and then half the people are pissed off at me for not playing. Zach, I'm sorry.

[Big Cat]

You're good.

[Zach]

You're so good, Max.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I think high stress.

[Big Cat]

I hate it.

[Max]

I hate it, hate it.

[Big Cat]

I hate it.

[Max]

And I hate it.

[Jerry O'Connell]

By the way, you know, I've been Max for Halloween. I think last Halloween I was Max. I had a couple of outfits.

[Big Cat]

Yeah.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I think I'm gonna have to get some, like, temporary tattoos. And I think this Halloween, I'm gonna have to come as Zach, sir. I'm gonna have to. That's. That's.

[Zach]

Can I be you, Jerry?

[Jerry O'Connell]

Sorry.

[Big Cat]

Can we.

[Zach]

Can we, like, Freaky Friday? I'll be you. You be me.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Yeah, absolutely.

[Zach]

That'd be awesome.

[Jerry O'Connell]

So. So what we're gonna do is. What we're gonna do. Yeah. You're just gonna walk around in your underwear and.

[Big Cat]

Okay.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Go, like, stand up for a big cat. Like, right where you're. Like your crotch area is, like, right in front of you.

[Big Cat]

Just get right in there.

[Jerry O'Connell]

And then I'm going to get a large. Like a tattoo, like an eagle tattoo, and.

[Big Cat]

Max, you should have just picked. You should have just picked one of us. It would have been better if one of us. I know.

[Max]

I tried to. I didn't think that Dana was going to. I didn't think. I didn't think that Dana was going.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I. I don't know.

[Big Cat]

I.

[Max]

All right. I up.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I.

[Max]

Whatever.

[Jerry O'Connell]

Oh, I. I. I have one more fire fest. I'm so sorry. One more fire fest.

[Max]

We're done. We're done. So we're done with. We're done.

[Jerry O'Connell]

I'm not gonna make fun of you, Max. I. I promise. One more fyre fest. We. We do, like, a campfire every night where we go down, everyone's drinking and everything, and I've been staying a little late at the campfire, you know, and fire fest. I can't really make out everyone who's there, but, like, the last half hour of the campfire, I'm there usually from like, midnight to 12:30. Guys just grab me and go, hey, can I. I. Can I ask you something?

[Big Cat]

What.

[Jerry O'Connell]

What was working on standby me, like, and that happens like, the last 30 minutes of the campfire night. So that's kind of a fire fest. And I want to, like, be polite to everybody and give them a little something, but I'm really tired of just, like, telling pretty drunk, pretty inebriated people what. What? What? Stand by Me was like.

[Big Cat]

Yeah. Yeah.

[PFT Commenter]

What was it like?

[Big Cat]

All right, we'll kick it back to ourselves. We got lottery balls.

[PFT Commenter]

By the way, Jerry's agreed to be in my. My spec script for Top Gun 3. If it gets adopted, Jerry has a partner.
