To the merits of Paw Patrol against its critics.
Bobby Bones
There's some things that really piss me off when it comes to Paw Patrol.
Dan Flores
It's pretty simple.
Ryan Seacrest
It sucks.

Bobby Bones
This is a podcast called 25 Whistles. Talking football and they all wear a whistle yet. Stupid. But why did you expect.
Ryan Seacrest
It's a podcast called 25 Whistles.
Eddie
25 Whistles.
Bobby Bones
Hey, welcome. Eddie.
Eddie
Hit it.
Bobby Bones
The fact that you thought my pickleball medal was a participation medal pisses me off a little bit.
Ryan Seacrest
Really?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I wouldn't take a picture with it and I wouldn't accept a participation medal, man.
Ryan Seacrest
I, I just. Hey, listen, this, I mean, that's a heavy metal dude.
Bobby Bones
It's a bronze though.
Ryan Seacrest
It's still though, you, you placed like you got a medal, which is legit. That's why I thought like, oh my gosh, you got a participation medal. Because that's kind of what my kids do. They go to tournaments all day and then, you know, if they don't win the whole trophy, they all get medals.
Bobby Bones
Not eight. I mean, not eight. I almost left before medal game. So this is what happened.
Ryan Seacrest
What do you mean you almost left?
Bobby Bones
I never played these tournaments before. Mistake number one was playing a doubles tournament because it started at 8am and they wanted us there at 7:30. Nightmare.
Ryan Seacrest
This ridiculous.
Bobby Bones
And my partner and I never played together. So we were just like, yeah, we'll just, while we're there, we'll just play doubles as well. We didn't realize it was going to be extended throughout the whole day.
Ryan Seacrest
Has he ever played a tournament before?
Bobby Bones
No, neither one of us had. And if you're playing doubles, you almost need to play with each other to understand what. So we showed up. I got there 7:15, which meant I got up at 5:45 on a Saturday. Awful.
Ryan Seacrest
And you don't have kids?
Bobby Bones
No.
Ryan Seacrest
This is all on your own.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, thanks for, thanks for reminding me. We got there and we're like, I don't know, what do we do? So they're like, okay, you're going to play in this doubles tournament. And him and I play and we dominate the first team we play, we're like, who knew it was so easy. And then we got whooped. Just not. We didn't even know what to do. We didn't even know how to play with each other. So we got in doubles, we got beat pretty bad. And. But doubles was just kind of something I decided to do since I was going to be there all day anyway. I just clicked that as like, I'll just do that as I'm waiting for singles because I play singles 95% of the time, mostly because I don't have a lot of friends and if I can Just get one to come over. That's a win. And so I get into the singles.
Ryan Seacrest
Tournament that started later in the day, 2:00pm oh, well, that's more like it.
Bobby Bones
But we played until like 11:30 or 12, 8. And had you back up there.
Ryan Seacrest
Wait, wait, 11:30, 12 at night?
Bobby Bones
No, and no, no, no. From 8:00am to like 11:30 or 12.
Ryan Seacrest
Got it.
Bobby Bones
One got food real quick and then came back for a singles tournament.
Ryan Seacrest
Yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
So we're there all day, so. And my wife was like, are you still playing? I was like, I haven't even started.
Ryan Seacrest
Oh, she didn't go well.
Bobby Bones
She went to singles because she know I didn't really care that much about doubles. So she was like, I'm gonna come support you. When do you want me to come up? And I was like, don't come up for doubles too early. And also we're just doing this to, like, kill time in between games. So it was singles time. And that way I can't be at fault or my partner can't be at fault. I just like putting all the blame on me if we suck. And also I feel like in singles I can grind people down just being in good shape. So we go and play the singles tournament. And there were a couple divisions. There's like an open division. There was another. I didn't sign up for the open division because I think that was the lowest, but I signed up for some scale, and I was playing players that were like a3.5 rating out of five. Yeah, yeah. A pro is like five, I think. I'm not sure. I didn't even know what the ratings were. I just. Karate kid going in there in my yard, I'm number one. Okay. And I didn't know how that was going to translate to showing up to play the tournament. But there are some serious people. They play it five days a week. Some of those guys show up every morning and play for like two hours five days a week. Like, do you guys have jobs? Like, yeah, we tour. We're musicians.
Ryan Seacrest
I'm like, that makes sense. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So we play singles, and they bring our side. Our division of the singles. Because I think there are multiple divisions, and the winners of each division gets in a final tournament against each other. And in our little group, there are six people. And when everybody has to play everybody. So you're playing five matches right off.
Ryan Seacrest
The bat, win or lose, everyone plays.
Bobby Bones
You do, and you take the records.
Ryan Seacrest
Got it.
Bobby Bones
And so. But that's a lot of game played 21. And I'm already. I'm not tired from doubles because doubles really isn't that hard on your body because you only play in one part of the court. But a little bit I'm fatigued also. I'm sleepy because I woke up at freaking 5:45 in the morning.
Reed
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So we started to play singles, and I went four and one in my five games.
Ryan Seacrest
Okay. It's good.
Bobby Bones
And one guy beat me. Kind of a bullcrap call, but whatever he got. He saw better than I.
Ryan Seacrest
But you guys are pretty much even.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Ryan Seacrest
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. And he got. He called the game winning point for him. I really couldn't tell if he was telling the truth or not, but it was just kind of a bullcrap call that it was so close. If it had been me, I wouldn't have. I'd have been like, it's close on the final call. Let's just replay the point so you.
Ryan Seacrest
Guys don't have line judges or any.
Bobby Bones
10 courts going at once. I'm not even saying that my ball was in. I'm just saying I know if it would have happened to me and it had been close on the final point, I would have said, hey, I'll just play the point again. But that's not how they do it, a tournament. So you have to make the call, I guess. So I lost that game.
Ryan Seacrest
Okay, whatever.
Bobby Bones
So they're like, hey, you've made the top four. You're gonna go play in the medal round. And I'm like, let's go. Awesome. I get matched up with a guy that just beat me.
Ryan Seacrest
Oh, boy.
Bobby Bones
I pound them. Yeah.
Ryan Seacrest
Got him.
Bobby Bones
I end up pound. But that was in the championship. I mean, that was in the other. So the first game, I played somebody in the final four who I'd already beaten once.
Ryan Seacrest
Okay. Felt good about that.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. And I'm playing them. And this again, this is not an excuse because I was not injured, but I hit a fence. And you'll see. I had blood all over me. I was too worried about getting a good picture of me playing with blood all over my arm. Yeah, I think. I think it distracted me a little bit. Mar was hurting, but I wasn't injured, so I can't use that as an excuse. There's no excuse.
Ryan Seacrest
How much blood we talking?
Bobby Bones
It was a lot. Awesome. Yeah, awesome, dude. It was not an excuse because it did not affect my gameplay at all. I think I was just mildly distracted. And the guy was good, and so I didn't beating him earlier and he beat me. So I had to go play in the bronze medal. Match and then it was the guy that had beat me earlier and I pounded him like 21 to 3 or something.
Ryan Seacrest
You wanted. You wanted to get him.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. So anyway, I got a medal. I'll play it differently next time.
Ryan Seacrest
Now that you know you're more experienced now.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, not even. Just that I ain't getting there. It's 8:00am no way. For a 2:00am I'm playing singles. I got a bronze medal. I was pretty proud of it. For my first ever tournament that I got a medal.
Ryan Seacrest
That's awesome, dude.
Bobby Bones
Pretty happy with it. It's just pickleball. People are making fun of me online. You. Oh, it's not even a sport. Okay.
Ryan Seacrest
No, it's a sport.
Bobby Bones
No care. If I'm playing checkers and I'm in, I get a medal. Mostly I want the gold, but pickleball is a sport. Mostly I want the gold. But this time there were some really great players there. I beat some guys that were like three sevens, three eights.
Ryan Seacrest
Okay.
Bobby Bones
I think my ratings are almost three eight right now. But it's only through one tournament. I'm looking to get to that 4.0.
Ryan Seacrest
But that's official, right? That's like a handicap.
Bobby Bones
Yes. Okay, so in one week. I didn't think about this in one week. And I gotta thank my friend George Burris for messaging me. He said you shot a 78 and won a medal on a pickleball tournament.
Reed
Damn.
Bobby Bones
That's not. Two Old Man Sport awards, dude.
Ryan Seacrest
Hell of a week.
Bobby Bones
So. Yes.
Ryan Seacrest
That's awesome, dude.
Bobby Bones
That was that. I have so many notes.
Ryan Seacrest
Is that real bronze, by the way? It's like, like the Olympics.
Reed
We could test it.
Bobby Bones
A rose gold.
Ryan Seacrest
Okay. Yeah, you probably don't want to put that in your mouth.
Bobby Bones
And it says Amateur Pickleball Association. In case people thought I was a professional.
Ryan Seacrest
I don't know. You're amateur.
Bobby Bones
Yep. But now I'm pretty, pretty happy with it.
Ryan Seacrest
Congrats, man.
Bobby Bones
My body hurts because I played 14 total matches that day.
Ryan Seacrest
Crazy.
Reed
Yeah, it's a lot.
Bobby Bones
And it's not even that I was exhausted because I was tired, but my hips, my ankles hurt from just all the cuts. Like pivots and cuts.
Ryan Seacrest
Cuts back and forth. Not your. Not like your arm.
Bobby Bones
Oh, I do have a big cut of my arm that was in a picture on my Instagram.
Ryan Seacrest
Yeah, I saw it.
Reed
That was really cool.
Bobby Bones
Like pretty.
Ryan Seacrest
How was the bathroom situation? Everything?
Bobby Bones
You couldn't go number two. Luckily, I went home in the middle of the day. You can only Pee. You couldn't go number two. But I didn't have that problem, so it wasn't a situation for me.
Ryan Seacrest
Good. That's good.
Bobby Bones
But they did send out an email going, don't try to go to the bathroom. So that's the big sports of the week.
Ryan Seacrest
Lead with a big one.
Bobby Bones
I got many things. Okay, number two, the Thunder.
Ryan Seacrest
Let's go, baby.
Eddie
Did you watch it?
Ryan Seacrest
I watched about half of it. It was back and forth between golf. The timing was bad. Golf, thunder game. And then I was coaching. You know, I'm a coach for my son's basketball game.
Bobby Bones
They get any medals?
Ryan Seacrest
No. Oh, yeah. Both of my kids got got basketball medals. They always do.
Bobby Bones
Let's go.
Ryan Seacrest
Yeah. So you and my kids got medals.
Reed
Metal weekend, man.
Bobby Bones
Good job, dude. What part of the basketball game did you watch?
Ryan Seacrest
Somewhere in the middle.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Ryan Seacrest
So in the middle where they took the lead.
Bobby Bones
It was the bluest I've ever seen a crowd. It looked awesome.
Ryan Seacrest
Yeah, that's what they do in okc, man.
Bobby Bones
It was all dark blue. And there were very few people that weren't wearing the shirt. Always got to wear the shirt. It looked cool. Eyes a little butt clenched at the beginning. I want Oklahoma City to win as well.
Ryan Seacrest
And because you don't want me to wear a thong.
Bobby Bones
No, it's not that. I just want them to win. But if they do lose, there's a bonus for me. Right, right. And so. Oh, you. Early on they were tight and they were not playing well, I think. And I saw the graphic. They had like three players that ever played in a game. Seven. And Denver had like 20.
Ryan Seacrest
Oh gosh.
Bobby Bones
20 game sevens and OKC had what? Three? Like three. I think it was like three total game. Sevens versus Denver's 20.
Reed
Yeah, that first quarter was tight.
Bobby Bones
So first quarter is pretty tight. Getting almost to half. It was in the 40s and then it just. They see ya right before the half. I'm not even sure what the run was like 18 to 5 or something like that. And then it was never a game again.
Ryan Seacrest
So that's Caruso went off right?
Bobby Bones
Like defensively, Caruso played awesome. Caruso was playing Joker.
Ryan Seacrest
Yes, he was on Joker. I saw that.
Bobby Bones
Yes. So I was glad to see Oklahoma City win. I think that Oklahoma City and Minnesota matchup is going to be really good. Oh, I wonder why people hate Gobert so much now. I saw where he kicked out as one. His girlfriend that's pregnant with a one year old. Oh, but he kicked her out of the house. I just wonder what about him? Because apparently everybody hates him.
Reed
Remember we did the whole thing with COVID and he was, like, coughing on the mic.
Bobby Bones
He was the original funny, and no.
Ryan Seacrest
One knew how serious it was then.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that was meant to be.
Reed
I feel like that started the sour taste.
Bobby Bones
I think people hate him.
Ryan Seacrest
I think he just plays soft. Like, he's a big dude. He should be playing hard, big man. But he just plays soft and he looks soft.
Bobby Bones
I don't think that's it. I think people hate him, and I don't know why. I need. I don't have any inside NBA folks. I'm going to find one, though.
Ryan Seacrest
Okay. Okay.
Bobby Bones
Because he defensively dominates, so he's not even playing that soft. Like, he's defensively awesome still. But I think that series is going to be fun.
Ryan Seacrest
I was hoping a 4 0. Yeah, just end it, you know, quick.
Bobby Bones
I wouldn't mind that. But you're looking at either. Anthony Edwards, by the way, never won a championship. You're looking at Shea. Never won a championship. Oklahoma City. That the Seattle doesn't count. They're like 19 something. The last time the Thunder won a champion. It doesn't count. Seattle doesn't count. That's not the same at all.
Ryan Seacrest
So was it Bubble or was it. I don't know. What are they talking about? Oh, when they were Supersonics. Get out of here. I see what you're saying, but they.
Bobby Bones
Put the thing up and they're like. To ever win a championship?
Ryan Seacrest
No, no, no.
Bobby Bones
That doesn't count. Yeah, the Knicks. I would have lost this trivia question. It's been over 50 years since they've won in any of our lives. The Knicks haven't won a championship. And then Halliburton. That's pretty cool.
Ryan Seacrest
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So what?
Reed
I kind of like. There's a lot of, like, new young blood in the mix. I don't know. Personally, I know people were kind of complaining. There's no LeBron, no Curry now. I mean, Giannis is obviously out, but I'm kind of into it, you know, I think change the guard.
Bobby Bones
Anthony Edwards and Shay. That's pretty cool. You know the Brunson, Halliburton, they're not as famous, but, I mean, even Shea's not really that famous.
Ryan Seacrest
He's getting there.
Bobby Bones
But Anthony Edwards is probably the most famous superstar right now. Yeah, yeah. I'm rooting for you, dude. But I'm rooting for me. I'm rooting for Thunder. I'm gonna try to go to one of those if I can.
Ryan Seacrest
That'd be cool.
Bobby Bones
If I can. The problem is take your father in law. DJ and Arkansas one. Yeah. So they won the game got delayed four hours yesterday because of storms in Fayetteville. So the how college softball works is these regionals. They have four teams come to one area. It's very much like the NCAA basketball tournament does, except the higher seated team hosts the site where in the NCAA basketball tournament they already have them dedicated.
Ryan Seacrest
Sure.
Bobby Bones
But they want to make sure fans go. So Arkansas is the number four overall team they hosted, it was Arkansas, Indiana, Saint Louis University and Oklahoma State. And Oklahoma State was a lot better than what they were put into. But because it's regional, at times they'll stick teams that are close near each other. So Arkansas wins game one, Oklahoma State wins game one. They go to game two. Oklahoma State's dominating Arkansas scores like three runs in the bottom of the seventh. They only play seven innings and ties it and then wins it in the eighth. It was crazy awesome. And then the game got delayed forever last night and then Arkansas fricking put nails to them and won like 12, 0, something like that. They had to call the game early. Yeah, they run rolled them in the fifth. So that was awesome. So I'll go to Fayetteville next week and it's going to be Arkansas and Ole Miss. Ole Miss ended up going to Arizona and winning that regional. And so Arkansas and Ole Miss will play. But Ole Miss beat Arkansas in the series earlier this year.
Ryan Seacrest
So you are really into this. I love it.
Bobby Bones
It's my brother in law, my family.
Ryan Seacrest
I know.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. So I also give him a lot of money. So I need to be.
Ryan Seacrest
You give DJ a lot of money?
Bobby Bones
Not DJ, the softball team.
Ryan Seacrest
Is DJ asking you for money?
Bobby Bones
DJs not. So that's big news.
Ryan Seacrest
That's really cool.
Bobby Bones
So we're going to go to Fayetteville next week and if they. So now in super regionals they play two out of three. Just two teams show up. It's best of three and then the winner goes to the College World Series. Eight teams. Arkansas has never been ever.
Ryan Seacrest
Wow, that's awesome. So do you think there's a timing where maybe you can go catch Arkansas game and then go to okc?
Bobby Bones
We'll be in OKC that next week. So if the Thunder are still in it, possibly. We're there, they're there.
Ryan Seacrest
That'd be cool.
Bobby Bones
I mean they'll be begging me to come. Oh, why would they not?
Ryan Seacrest
Bobby, we need you.
Reed
Is there a chance your brother in law would be playing his mom?
Bobby Bones
Yes, at some point There is a chance. They've played four times this year.
Reed
Okay.
Bobby Bones
They played the. They played a three game series and Oklahoma swept them. But Arkansas played pretty good. They played a. In the SEC tournament and his mom beat him in a walk off home run in the very end.
Ryan Seacrest
Arkansas had that lead.
Bobby Bones
They did. Eddie never playing golf, watching it. So. Yes. But there is a chance. So. Yeah, so there's that. I'll talk Caitlyn Clark for a second.
Ryan Seacrest
Yeah. What do you think about that?
Bobby Bones
I think that Angel Reese is stupid.
Ryan Seacrest
She didn't do anything, man. She was just trying to throw. She was just trying to score.
Bobby Bones
Angel Reese shoved a player first and then Caitlin Clark. Basketball play.
Ryan Seacrest
Trish trying to draw the foul.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, basketball play. Making sure you get the hard way.
Ryan Seacrest
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Caitlin Clark also had a triple double and it wasn't a game.
Ryan Seacrest
But there is a feud, right? There is a feud. So to come out and say don't make a thing out of it. That's crazy, though. There's a feud. Caitlin Clark versus Angel Reese.
Bobby Bones
I don't think Caitlin Clark thinks about Angel Reese more than I was gonna say. It's once a month. I think Angel Reese lives with Caitlin Clark in her head. Yeah.
Ryan Seacrest
Okay.
Bobby Bones
I think a lot of players live with Caitlin Clark in their head because she's come in and just taken over.
Reed
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So I'm. I'm also a massive Caitlin Clark fan. Have been before it even became cool to do. So back me up, Eddie.
Ryan Seacrest
No, dude.
Bobby Bones
When everybody was hating on.
Ryan Seacrest
No, you were the one.
Bobby Bones
I was the one. The only one.
Ryan Seacrest
And we were all like, what? And then you've even said your favorite athlete of all time.
Bobby Bones
Basketball player.
Ryan Seacrest
Favorite basketball player of all time.
Bobby Bones
Kayla Clark.
Ryan Seacrest
Caitlin Clark. You said it.
Bobby Bones
Thank you.
Ryan Seacrest
So not athlete.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, they dominated. She triple double. She had 10 rebounds, 10 assists over 20 points. It's pretty awesome.
Ryan Seacrest
Did you watch the game live?
Bobby Bones
Watch a bunch of it. And then it got way out of hand. And then I was just checking back to see if I was following because Dave Portnoy had bet a bunch of money for a triple double and it went in $335,000.
Ryan Seacrest
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And I think the 10th rebound was what he needed for her to hit it. And when she. So I was flipping back and forth.
Ryan Seacrest
To see that, and then I saw the. The Caitlyn's teammate got technical.
Bobby Bones
Aaliyah Boston.
Ryan Seacrest
Aaliyah Boston. So she gets fined as well.
Bobby Bones
Caitlin Clark said she'd pay it in the. In the press conference. Caitlin Clark's like, oh, I'm gonna Pay the fine.
Ryan Seacrest
That's pretty cool.
Bobby Bones
So that happened. That was good. That was fun. The PGA Sheffler won.
Ryan Seacrest
Schaeffler, man, again, almost lost it. John Rom came up, tied it up. And like the. I don't know what hole they were on, he ties it up. And then of course, John Ram just kind of blew it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but Scheffler went like five under in the last five holes.
Ryan Seacrest
Oh, yeah. He took off.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. So it was.
Ryan Seacrest
Rahm started bogey and then Scheffler took off. So it was.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I felt like there wasn't much drama there.
Ryan Seacrest
Well, man, when my basketball practice started, like right at 4 o' clock, they were tied. Now I'm like, can we delay practice? And my wife's like, no, we gotta practice. And then when practice is over, I.
Bobby Bones
Was like watching that. I flipped it on and it was. And Scheffler was running away with it at the end.
Ryan Seacrest
Yeah, they were tied.
Bobby Bones
Is a great at. Well, yeah, but again, it's the birdied five holes in a row at the end.
Ryan Seacrest
I know. And I think they were saying Scheffler like was his driver was off. He didn't hit many fairways for the front nine. And then the back nine. Boom. Nailed them all.
Bobby Bones
I need to get me one of those non conforming drivers, apparently.
Ryan Seacrest
What is that?
Bobby Bones
Well, they took Roy's driver away. It said it was non conforming and he may have played. I don't know what it means. And they may have legal driver. Yeah. But they were checking everybody's drivers for some reason. Even Scheffler said he got his check.
Ryan Seacrest
Okay, pga. PGA needs to relax. Like they want to do this on the Masters.
Bobby Bones
They want to find me a non conforming driver though. I don't know where I can get it, but I would love to have me a non conforming driver.
Ryan Seacrest
I did see that Rickie Fowler plays your mini driver.
Bobby Bones
Nice.
Ryan Seacrest
He plays it as a fairway would off the deck.
Bobby Bones
Nice.
Ryan Seacrest
But she was hidden really well. And you were hitting it.
Bobby Bones
Bought me a mini driver. Not the actress, by the way. Mini driver. Oh, gosh.
Ryan Seacrest
I didn't think about that.
Bobby Bones
It's a smaller driver that's mostly played like a three wood, but with a bigger head. Yeah. So.
Ryan Seacrest
And many drivers. The actress on Goodwill Hunting.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Dark hair. Yeah. Mini driver. The Nike ad was really good. After Scheffler won, it was like guilty of being the best golfer in the world because obviously a year ago he was arrested. That's cool. Yeah, the Nike ad was good.
Ryan Seacrest
I did also see a tik tok too with this guy popped up. This has nothing to do with Scheffler or anything, but this guy pops up and he's sitting there next to his wife on a couch and he says, hey guys, this I just want to apologize to my wife who's right here for cheating on her. And I was like, oh, I'm all in. I keep watching. And he goes, in her dreams. Apparently last night I cheated.
Bobby Bones
I've done that bit on stage. I've done that bit on stage.
Ryan Seacrest
He had me.
Debbie Brown
He got me.
Bobby Bones

Now we're going to talk to Solomon Wilcox. By the way, played at University of Colorado. He was the first player from Colorado to be drafted by the Bengals. He played with the Bengals for four years, the Vikings. He played with the Steelers. He's now earned an Emmy Award for his sideline reporting on ESPN Sunday Night Football. He does a show on Sirius xm. And we're going to talk NFL right now with Solomon Wilcox. Hey, Solomon, thanks for the time today, man. Really appreciate it.
Eddie
Thanks for having me. Appreciate you.
Bobby Bones
I want to start with Caleb Williams. What do you make of Caleb Williams talking about the last staff and him watching film alone?
Eddie
Yeah, you know, I find that one hard to believe simply because in the National Football League where things are so buttoned up right between the head coach, the offensive coordinator and the quarterback's coach, there are a lot of people overseeing the growth and the development of the quarterback that I could see you having a moment where the work has already been explained, the cut ups have already been provided and that there's been many of times where he was sitting in a meeting with the coordinator and the quarterback coach and going over things, but also he would have time also to watch tape alone. Like you're a quarterback. Yeah, there's going to be, it's like any other job. There's going to be time where, look, you're entrusted to get this part of it done by yourself because there's already been a conversation had with everyone about what you're looking for and what you're learning. And so I could see him spending some time watching tape alone. But if you, if, if that is to imply that he was left to fend for himself as a quarterback, trying to watch Tate dissect the opponent. That's what I find very hard to believe.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's hard for me to believe too, because when they talked about Ibrah flus and his staff, they were like, yeah, they checked out the last few games, however much like players. And that's why there's no tanking in the NFL, because everything is still on tape because everybody's still looking for their next job. Even when even coaches are looking, if they know they're not going to continue in Chicago, they probably want to continue somewhere. And what a terrible thing to do for your own personal career than to just ignore everything, right?
Eddie
Oh, absolutely. That would be complete negligence and I think. And obviously totally unprofessional to leave a quarterback on his own, particularly a rookie quarterback.
Bobby Bones
Right.
Eddie
Without any help, without any assistance when it comes to understanding the game plan, when it comes to understanding the opponent. So look, do I believe that there was times when he was tasked to watch some tape on his own, to look at the cut ups that the coaches provide for him? No, I'm not doubting that. I would suspect that, yeah. That did happen. But I think right now this whole thing is being taken out of context to represent something that just doesn't happen in our league. Rookie quarterbacks are not getting their own cut ups, are building their own game plans, are being left on their own to figure out how to win games without having assistance from the coaches.
Bobby Bones
Let's stay with the quarterbacks and go to Aaron Rodgers. And we kept waiting for him to make a decision and it looked like it was the Steelers. And now we're hearing maybe it's not the Steelers. And I don't know if it's because the Saints are now giving him a little leverage. What are you hearing about Aaron Rodgers?
Eddie
Well, I just spoke this morning on the opening drive on Sirius XM NFL Radio with Andrew Filiponi. He's a Steelers reporter with 93.7 the Fan in Pittsburgh. And he was really good at saying that, look, Aaron Rodgers is most likely going to show up here at the end of May 1st of June, that it's been reported that he's dealing with, quote, personal issues. But think about it this way. According to Andrew Filip, pony they went out and they signed a receiver and DK Metcalf who, oh by the way, Aaron Rodgers and he were throwing and catching the ball. They've had workouts together and that Aaron Rodgers did not throw the ball to George Pickens. And oh by the way, George Pickens has now been traded away for the team. He has really laid down a snapshot of all of the things that have been done by the Pittsburgh Steelers to make way for Aaron Rodgers. That indeed Aaron Rodgers is ultimately at 41 years of age gonna come walking through that door at the appointed time. Even Aaron Rodgers said On the Pat McAfee show, the people who are who need to know know that's what Aaron Rodgers said. So Andrew Filippone did a really good job of painting a picture that shows that this team has already made way for Aaron to later join them at some point in June, in the month of June as they're going into the mandatory portion of minicamp and that indeed he will be their quarterback for the start of the 2025 season.
Bobby Bones
Let's do another quarterback situation. Let's go to the Browns. How much weight do you put into rookie camp throwing against air? Because that's what's happening right now. What should err. And that's what's happening right now with Dylan Gabriel and depending on who you read, you know, shilling it or Dylan Gabriel's doing fine, but how much weight do you Put in that now.
Eddie
None. Zero. At no point in an NFL game are you throwing against air. Here's what the real deal looks like. A mean fast pass rush, right. That obstructs vision. That is meant to hurry up the processing of the quarterback and is admit to apply. It's going to apply pressure to the quarterback. Oh by the way there's going to be coverage on the, on the guys that you're throwing to called NFL wide receivers. They're going to be in tight coverage. And oh by the way your pre snap read is going to be different than what the coverage actually looks like once the ball is snapped. So those are the elements that you're going to be facing when a game starts as an NFL quarterback and trust me, that is night and day from throwing the ball against air at a practice facility in the NFL. So I put no, nothing on that. I don't put anything on that at all.
Bobby Bones
There's always a couple of teams who go from not making the playoffs to making the playoffs. Who do you feel like this year is set up to do that?
Eddie
That's a very good question. I think potentially the Atlanta Falcons with the assets that they brought in drafting two players in the first round on defense, right. I think Michael Penix Jr. Is capable of playing at a high level. That's going to give them some consistency at the quarterback position because they have the weapons, they have a great offensive line, they have good running backs, right. And Tyler Algier and Bijan Robinson, they have really good wide receivers and a tight end. And Kyle Pitts and Drake London, they just need a quarterback to play consistently. Remember before they went on that five game stretch where Kirk Cousins, they were one and four in that five game stretch and I think he had one touchdown and eight interceptions. They were the leaders in the NFC south division. It looked like they were going to the playoffs. They lose four out of five, they don't make it to the playoffs and Now Michael Penix Jr. Is going to be their starter. So that's one of those teams that I would look out for. So that's one in terms of team that didn't make it to the playoffs the year before. Look, I do think the Washington Commanders were one of those teams last year. You put a really good quarterback in the lineup in Atlanta and I think they could be the team this year.
Bobby Bones
You mentioned George Pickens earlier getting traded from Pittsburgh to Dallas. We have massive Cowboys fans on this show. Not me, but they are massive Cowboys fans here with me. I feel like they give CD Lamb Somebody to distract from constant double coverages. But Pickens seem to be, if you were to read and talk to people, a bit problematic at times. How do you think he'll gel in Dallas?
Eddie
Look, I think the Cowboys could be one of those teams, right, that didn't make the playoffs last year but could go to this year. The reason why I didn't mention them is because have you seen their schedule, by the way? Have you seen the way the schedule looks, particularly at the back end of the season? It's going to be a gauntlet. And you know Brian Schottenheimer is the first time head coach. He's got to do a lot to get, I think a lot of pieces to come together including the run game, including the wide receivers around Dak Prescott and George Pickens is one of them. While he is a talented route run, I think he has excellent speed to be a vertical threat within the offense. I think that's something that was missing last year in the offense. CD Lamb had to kind of do everything. George Pickens can provide a lot of assets and positive moments as a productive wide receiver. Problem is he tends to pull the pin on his own hand grenade. He tends to get emotional at times and can be baited by the opponent to draw a flag that negates the positive plays that he brings. And so at the end of the day, you know he's a. He's going to give you a couple of good plays, he's going to give you a couple of bad plays, but the Net total is 0. He giveth and he taketh away. And so that's where he's had a problem. Needs to mature big time, needs to be more mentally disciplined and cannot allow himself to be goaded and to drawing penalty flags. That tends to cost his team at critical moments in football games.
Bobby Bones
We were talking about the schedule and just how many games there are in Europe, even in Mexico. But how many games are on Europe this year from Germany to London to. How hard is that for these players?
Eddie
Well, it's a time change, right? You're talking about five hours earlier in the day. If you're in London, for instance, right ahead of east coast town, East Eastern Standard Time in New York. So imagine if you're playing a one o' clock game on the east coast. You're getting up about seven, you're having your breakfast around eight, you're getting to the stadium three hours before kickoff, right? One o' clock. So you're getting there about 10 and then you're getting ready for the game. So now, let's. Let's move that up five hours early, right? And not. You're not getting to the stadium at 10am you're getting there five hours prior to that. Think about in terms of your biological clock. So that's a challenge. It's a challenge for all the players going there. But look, these guys are conditioned. You know, there's going to be games in Dublin, Ireland. There's going to be three in London. It's going to be a game in Berlin, Germany, another in Madrid, and another in Brazil. These guys will adjust. The teams are going to get them out there a whole week ahead of the game. So they will be adjusted by game day and getting up at the appointed time, getting on the practice field and being ready to go to work. But there's an adjustment, but I don't. I don't see it as an impediment for playing at a very high level.
Bobby Bones
Let's talk about college football for a second. You played at Colorado. The, the health, the vibes with Colorado now.
Eddie
Hey, man, everything's alive and well. I think Prime. Coach Prime's done a really good job with the program that only won one game before his arrival. And then we win nine games in his second year and go to a bowl game. We were just one win shy of really being in the playoffs. And now that we've got some expansion, you know, I think that's. I think that's the goal. The goal is to be able to get into the college football playoffs and, and get into the tournament and see what we can do from there. I think another thing that you've got to look at, I don't think it's talked about enough with CU and University of Colorado football and the job that Coach prime has done. The entire football team had an average grade point average above 3.0. We've been playing football at the University of Colorado for over 100 years, and it's the highest collective average of great point average or any football team in the history of the institution. Enrollment is up by 40%, which you and I both know that's the other scorecard that the institution usually is graded on. Are we in upping our enrollment? Can they charge more for admissions and for, you know what. What's required to get and earn a degree after four years? All of the metrics are up. They're selling out the university, they're selling out game days. The hotels are sold out, the merchandise is sold out. So you might say Coach prime is winning in the economic vertical, but now we're also winning on the field as well. That's what college coaches and athletic coaches are tasked to do to grow the brand. So it's kind of like that rising tide that lifts all ships. That's what Coach prime has meant to the University of Colorado.
Bobby Bones
I have two final questions. Who has more pressure on him this year, Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson?
Eddie
I think both have expectations to perform at a high level. I think both have now the fan bases to your question. I think what you're really getting at is it's about time now, after delivering MVPs and getting your team to the playoffs year after year. They both sit in that position where they've not been able to get past Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes in the Kansas City Chiefs. They've not been able to get to the super bowl, let alone win one. And whether it's Patrick Mahomes or Joe Burrow, those have been the teams and the quarterbacks that have kind of stood in their way. So as good as they've been, they've been able to win. They haven't been able to punch a ticket to the super bowl or win it. And that's what brings with it some pressure. Here's the thing. I think both coaches and both teams have done a good job of managing the expectations. I think while there is an expectation to win a Super bowl, both coaches have done a wonderful job of saying, look, it's like anything else, you got to just keep getting there. You got to just continue to battle to get there. And then one year you've got to break through. And so I do think there's high expectations to break through. But I don't know that anyone's banging the drum, that we're going to run them out of town if it doesn't happen. Because I think both guys, both quarterbacks have sown enough seeds of goodwill and are still playing in their prime. Right. That I think most believe that the window is wide open for both Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen.
Bobby Bones
I'm going to show you this, Solomon. It'll make sense to you. But this is a medal I want in pickleball this weekend. Pickleball tournament right here.
Eddie
There you go.
Bobby Bones
There we go. Yeah, this is my big athlete. I had a big week last week. I shot under 80 for the first time. I shot a 78 playing golf, and then I finished third in a pickleball tournament right here. So I'm pretty pumped about this. But I saw pickleballnee.com you're going to New York to do like, like what is this medicine you guys are doing?
Eddie
Oh, it's phenomenal. Well, you should know that, you know, it's going to be the New York City Pickleball tournament, and it's hosted and sponsored by Zimmer Biomet, and it's going to be played at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. Now, I'm going to be working with Zimmer Biomed, the leader in knee replacement technology, to talk about sports injury and the advancement in knee replacement surgery. Now, I'm a veteran of a joint replacement operation. This is innovative medicine. This is not your grandmother's medicine at all. People living with knee pain should call their doctor. Or you should go to the website by Zimmer BioMed. It's www.pickleballnee.com. to find out more about this innovative procedure. It is phenomenal. If you haven't had joint replacement surgery, I'm telling you right now, they're doing a better job than they ever have before. And if you're living with knee pain, this is what you should be looking at. Go to the website, take a look at it. It's new, innovative technology that could really help people who are suffering from knee pain.
Bobby Bones
And I right now don't have knee pain, but I still think I should go to pickleballnee.com because I'm for sure gonna hurt a knee playing pickleball. I think I still got it, and I don't quite have all that I think I still have, which is kind of funny. But, hey, Solomon, you do a great job. And you guys, follow Solomon on Instagram and Twitter SolomonSwisdom and check out his show on Sirius. And hey, you're awesome in the booth. Appreciate what you do. Thanks for coming on for a few minutes and talking with us all.
Eddie
Appreciate the work you do as well. Thanks for having me.
Bobby Bones
All right, see you later, buddy.

You're staying at your buddy's parents house. You had towels and water on your bed. You wake up his parents, make you breakfast, right?
Debbie Brown
Mm.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Then what do you do?

Ryan Seacrest
Okay.
Debbie Brown
And so we got to the. We got to the airport and got all done with that around. Around 11 or 12, something like that. And so the plan was to go play golf, but it was pouring rain. Oh, no, no. So that ended up not happening.
Bobby Bones
So spend the bottle back at the house.
Debbie Brown
Instead.
Bobby Bones
We just.
Debbie Brown
Yeah, instead we just did seven seconds in heaven at Dawson's Parish.
Bobby Bones
Seven minutes in heaven? Yeah. Okay, then what did you do, Reed?
Debbie Brown
We went to this golf simulator place in the city. Yeah, it was. I mean, he lives in East Brunswick, so we went and got some pizza.
Bobby Bones
No, where was the simulator? Eddie's saying New York City. You went into East? No.
Debbie Brown
No chance.

Oh, no. Either he doesn't remember, dude, or he's playing dumb. Did you guys all roof each other? Like everybody equally roofied that nobody remembers.
Ryan Seacrest
See what happens, happens.
Debbie Brown
Dude, that's crazy. I actually don't remember. What. What did we do then? Okay, Friday night it rained. We went and we. We hit the simulator. Okay, and then what do we do? What did we do?
Reed
This sounds awesome.
Bobby Bones
This sounds like. It sounds like White Lotus. Yeah, I'll say nothing more. Go ahead, dude.
Debbie Brown
I got a calendar. Hold on.
Ryan Seacrest
How do you not remember, Reed?
Bobby Bones
Did you guys get drunk?
Debbie Brown
I really don't. No, not at all. Oh, I'm an idiot. I know we did.
Ryan Seacrest
Strippers.
Bobby Bones
I got my.
Ryan Seacrest
I forgot.
Debbie Brown
I got. I got my days mixed up. Okay, so yeah, during the day we went. We went to the golf simulator, but then we drove to Atlantic City.
Bobby Bones
Okay, now we're talking now. Yeah. And then what'd you do?
Debbie Brown
It was like A two hour drive, something like that. So we got down to Atlantic City, checked in the hotel by the time we were not.
Bobby Bones
Remember that? Guys, let me just pause for a second. Exactly hours to Atlantic City and you don't remember that?
Debbie Brown
I don't remember which day it was, man. So we get to Atlantic City, we check in, we don't even get dressed until like 11 o' clock at night. So that's, that's when we start going. So it's like 11 o' clock. We get to the, to the hotel casino, we go eat some food, get all dressed up, we're all wearing suits and we go down and we hit the craps table.
Bobby Bones
And how long did you last?
Debbie Brown
We actually, we actually lasted. We. I think one of my buddies, Hayden, he rolled for like an hour and a half.
Bobby Bones
Wow. Did you guys win a bunch of money?
Debbie Brown
It was great. Everybody won like $600. I lost all of mine.
Bobby Bones
How are you the one that lost? You're always the one that wins the easiest game.
Debbie Brown
I was like, this is the night, man. I'm just gonna, you know, I wanted to, to spend $500 and that's my limit. So I was up like, you know, $600. So I was like, you know, I'll just, I'll keep going. When I, when I get down to 500, I'll stop. That's what I did, man. I actually lost 190.
Bobby Bones
So you do that and then you sleep. What time do you wake up the next day?
Debbie Brown
Let's see, we got to bed around 3:30ish. And then we had to wake up at 5 to drive to the golf.
Bobby Bones
Course because it's left for an hour and a half. I wouldn't even want to play golf with that little slave.
Debbie Brown
It was not good. It was not good. So we, so since we didn't get to play on Friday, we're like, we'll just double up and play two rounds on Saturday. So we woke up. Yeah, yeah. And so we got to, we had to drive like an hour to the golf course until we teed off at 7:15. Something like a nightmare.
Reed
Are you still in a seat at this point?
Debbie Brown
I thought about it. I thought that might be the easiest case because I could shave off like 30 minutes and not have a shower.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so, you know, did you make both rounds? You played 36 holes?
Debbie Brown
Yeah, we played, we played 36 holes. But what's hilarious is I booked two tee times at two different courses and I was booking tee times left and right because I didn't know what was going to happen. I didn't know if we were going to be able to make it or anything like that. So I got the tee times mixed up for the second round at a different course. And so we got to the second course at like 12:40. And my tee time there was like 11:10. And so I walked in, I was like, yeah, I got a tea time for 1240 for read. He's like, it looks like your tee time was an hour and a half ago.
Bobby Bones
You got some bad boys.
Debbie Brown
I was like. I was like, oh man, I thought I booked it for Friday.
Ryan Seacrest
Bachelor party.
Debbie Brown
Dude, they were so nice.
Bobby Bones
Bachelor party shenanigans. They were like, what? Stairs on the golf course? Stayed in the cars.
Debbie Brown
Come on. They were like, well, I think we can squeeze you in.
Reed
Oh, this is borderline dangerous.
Bobby Bones
Cannot believe this. You for sure got some sort of std. Go ahead.
Debbie Brown
Yeah, man. So we got it in and then by like. Dude, by like the freaking 34th hole. We were just, literally, our bodies were just melting as we were swinging the freaking golf club.
Bobby Bones
Nice. And you gotta drive how long to get home? Back to East Brunswick?
Ryan Seacrest
Back?
Debbie Brown
Jesus, what is that, Saturday?
Ryan Seacrest
Oh yeah, Saturday.
Bobby Bones
Check your calendar, buddy. He's like, I don't know what we did. Drove to Atlantic City and wore suits and played crap.
Debbie Brown
Dude, it's literally. It's literally so much. So then we, after that we drove back to East Brunswick, which was like an hour and a half. We got back there like 9:30. We got to his parents house, we showered.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Ryan Seacrest
I love the details.
Bobby Bones
Bullet points, bro.
Ryan Seacrest
My socks on.
Debbie Brown
We got everything fixed up at his parents house, we got dressed and then we drove to New York.
Ryan Seacrest
The city.
Debbie Brown
And so New York City, man, we didn't get to New York city until like 11. And driving downtown New York City with a rental car is probably the worst thing I've ever done in my entire life.
Bobby Bones
No, dude, you guys should have taken the train, man. What, what did you guys do in New.
Debbie Brown
Their trains are on strike in New Jersey.
Ryan Seacrest
Right.
Bobby Bones
Okay, real quick, what'd you do? I can't take much more.
Ryan Seacrest
I like the details.
Bobby Bones
When did you. What you do in New York? Times Square.
Debbie Brown
New York? Yeah, man.
Ryan Seacrest
Central Park.
Eddie
Well, no.
Debbie Brown
We actually had no time to do anything once we got there. It's pretty lame.
Bobby Bones
So what did you do?
Debbie Brown
We just went to these two little bars. One bar. It's like a listening room. It's called a music aquarium. You go in there and you sit down in front of these speakers and just drink drinks and listen to Music.
Ryan Seacrest
What?
Bobby Bones
That's called a bar?
Ryan Seacrest
Does every table have a different song or something? I don't understand.
Debbie Brown
It was like, 70s. They had all this, like, 70s equipment and stuff like that. It's. Yeah, this dude. We walked in and this dude was like. He, like, went to us real quick.
Bobby Bones
He's like, hey, man. Hey, guys.
Debbie Brown
Hey. What's up, dude? We just had this wild party in here. So, like, y' all are the first ones after that. So there's like. That's why there's nobody in here, but, like, let me go show this to you. And he gave us this whole tour, and we're like, this dude, there definitely 100% was not a party in this place. There was nobody in there. He was 100% just saying that to make us stay. And we had one drink, and we left.
Bobby Bones
And you went back home to East Brunswick.
Debbie Brown
So Dawson and. And Hayden drove back to East Brunswick. Me and Stone stayed in Chinatown at a hotel.
Ryan Seacrest
Oh, boy.
Reed
Yeah, this is where it's getting.
Bobby Bones
Why? Yeah, I hate even asking why. Dude.
Debbie Brown
Dude, the water pressure on the sink.
Bobby Bones
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm not doing it. I'm not falling. I'm not falling down the hole. Why did you go to Chinatown?
Debbie Brown
Because we were flying out of LaGuardia. Me and Stone were like, let's just stay the. We can just. We actually did go to the American Museum of History before our flight.
Bobby Bones
After the bar. What?
Debbie Brown
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
What's up with that water pressure? I gotta know now.
Debbie Brown
Dude, it literally. It shoots out and will, like, blow a hole through your belly button.
Ryan Seacrest
Oh, it's high water.
Bobby Bones
What were you trying to shoot with.
Debbie Brown
The water super pressure?
Bobby Bones
What part of your body were you trying to shoot when it hit you in the belly button?
Debbie Brown
I wasn't trying to get a fancy massage or something. I was just trying to wash my hands.
Bobby Bones
You see every butt naked, like, sitting on the sink just trying to get. Dude, bachelor party. It needs to be touched by something.
Debbie Brown
Dude, the whole bathroom is like, one of those. It's like a cube of those windows that's like. It's kind of blurry, but you can still kind of make out what's going on inside there. So, like. Like, Stone and the guys, when they were in there, they can literally see everything that's going on in that bathroom. Like, they can see you bend over to, like, wipe your cheeks. They can see everything.
Bobby Bones
Okay, then you flew home. Then you flew home to St. Louis.
Ryan Seacrest
Well, now, let's get the details.
Bobby Bones
No, More. I was like, security, I can't do anymore.
Ryan Seacrest
Did you check your bags?
Bobby Bones
Oh, no.
Debbie Brown
Yeah, we went to the museum in the morning, and then we flew out.
Bobby Bones
Can you imagine? Had I been on that trip?
Ryan Seacrest
No. You got to understand, I was a little upset that he invited you. Did not invite me. But now I'm all. I'm good with it. I am all good with it. Did you say you invited me?
Debbie Brown
Yeah.
Ryan Seacrest
No, I think the invitation was set up kind of like, hey, you wouldn't go on a bachelor party.
Bobby Bones
That's what he said to me, too. That's how he does it. I was. I was just thinking, well, what does he say?
Ryan Seacrest
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I was just wondering.
Ryan Seacrest
And then when you answer. That's what I figured.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's what I figured you wouldn't want to go. That's all I figured. All right. Well, that's awesome, dude.
Ryan Seacrest
Yeah, dude, good stuff.
Bobby Bones
All right. And when.
Ryan Seacrest
Get yourself checked.
Bobby Bones
And when's the wedding?
Debbie Brown
The wedding is June 4th. But, dude, the craziest thing is my apartment got hit by a tornado while I was gone.
Bobby Bones
I was gonna say.
Reed
That was gonna be my question.
Debbie Brown
I have a hole in the roof and, like, you probably no power.
Reed
Yeah. Reed, you remember when I asked you, hey, do they have tornadoes in St. Louis?
Bobby Bones
He's like, man, that's what I was just saying. There's.
Debbie Brown
It's been 100 years. The last tornado. The last tornado was 100 years ago.
Ryan Seacrest
Jinxed it.
Debbie Brown
Oh, God.
Bobby Bones
Well, we're sorry to hear that. I'd have much rather heard about that than the water pressure of the sink. There was really no payout to that story. Like, there was no. Yeah.
Debbie Brown
No, It's a good time, though. Good time.
Bobby Bones
All right, buddy.
Ryan Seacrest
Well, when are you coming to visit?
Bobby Bones
No, he's gonna be here every week or something.
Ryan Seacrest
Okay. Yeah, you said you were coming next week, and you're not here.
Debbie Brown
Dude, I'm just trying to get some power out here, man.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, we didn't know that until you got it. Doesn't matter. Well, buddy, I hope the bachelor party was awesome. Sorry we couldn't make it.
Debbie Brown

Bobby Bones
I'm gonna put it in a box, safety deposit box or something and just.
Ryan Seacrest
And then try to sell it later.
Bobby Bones
That's. I mean, that's probably why you get it. You don't do it to put on a mannequin.
Reed
You don't want people to smell it.

Bobby Bones
Something worth $2.6 million if it's known. It's just sitting in your house. Yeah.
