Luevara Arrington looking all jacked, stacked and jacked.
I'm looking cold is what I'm looking.
Nah, nah, nah.
Brady, you got to see him.
He's all piped up.
I am piped up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I am no longer the obese, flabby piece of S that I've been for for like the last seven
years.
What was the workout you did with your kid yesterday?
A hundred reps of each.
A hundred reps.
So we did a thousand reps yesterday and every exercise was a hundred reps.
Nice.
Every exercise.
So we were, we were supposed to originally do 10, but we were like hyping each other.
So we were making it to like sometimes we make it to 30.
Sometimes we make it to 20.
I think our average was 20.
We make it to 20 before we stop and then switch, but a thousand rep, a thousand rep workout.
It is a bang.
Girl, that'll put some hair on your chest, huh?
Ooh.
You're feeling it today, little sore?
Hell yeah.
Yeah.
I woke up.
You know, it's like sometimes when you do them leg workouts, like, and we did, we did,
like, we did uppers and lower, but sometimes you don't feel the leg workout until the
next day.
So I got up to, you know, for your, your morning respite and right when I rolled out to get
up, I felt that burn and couldn't figure out why it felt the way that it did.
And I remember like 100 reps on legs on, on what was it?
So we did extensions, curls, the end, what is it?
Endductor and abductor.
Deal where you like you squeeze in and then you got to push out on the other one.
You know, I'm talking about you.
Yeah, I think it's abductor and adductor.
Adductor.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
There you go.
Yeah.
And leg press was the heaviest one.
You don't go super heavy when you do hundred reps.
Obviously you can't get to a hundred if it's too.
Tell my college strength coach that.
Yeah.
No, but he put on, I remember when we were in college one time, he put on 500 pounds.
He goes, I want you to do 30.
And I looked at him like, huh?
30.
And obviously he knew exactly what was about to happen.
I did not.
And so I think I repped out, I don't know, maybe 10 or so.
And then he took off a plate on each side.
He's like, all right, keep going, keep going.
And by the end of it, I did more than 30.
And I don't even know how much he stripped down to, but it was like, he would put dudes
in that leg press and make them cry.
Yeah.
It was awful.
We're going to do that today.
We're going to do strip downs today.
Hell yeah.
So we'll, we'll put on, what is it?
25s.
25s on bench, like 25s on most of the work, work sets that we do today and they'll be
stripped down.
That's right, man.
Yeah.
I'm giving them up, man.
Keep serving those workouts.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Yeah.
I feel really good about myself.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What are you serving up?
Well, no, I'm here.
Listen, while you're serving up 25 pound play, it's apparently lawyers are serving up Shaq
papers for this FTX scam going on.
Oh, so as Shaq gets ready to be part of TNT's coverage for game five of the Eastern Conference
finals coming up later on tonight, which by the way, as we mentioned earlier, the Boston
Celtics eight and a half point favorites or some inexplicable reason back at home where
they've been awful the past couple of years in the playoffs.
Shaq LeNille will be there and apparently he's these lawyers scouted him out and knew
exactly where he would get to be because they said he's been dodging them or whatnot.
So they waited until there was a spot during the telecast where I don't know where they
at commercial or do they walk on the camera and give these papers out?
I'm surprised Charles Barkley didn't make mention of this on the air at some point.
But is a class action lawsuit and Shaq has been served as they as they waited for him
to to go to break it.
So he got served while working on TV at the game.
Yes.
That's cold blooded.
That is cold blooded.
I mean, I don't want to say.
Why not?
But I mean, imagine being an attorney and you're coming up with like they probably watched
the game before to figure out exactly like where he goes during the breaks and what
he's doing and all that.
And then they came up with a plan for the next game knowing exactly where he'd be what
he was going to do to then serve him.
Like you got it.
That's some conniving stuff right there.
It's also especially when you consider you know during the basketball season every Tuesday
and Thursday night he's at the Turner studios in Atlanta.
You could literally get him as he walks out the door and serve him there.
But now we got to make a scene of it.
Where's the most eyeballs going to be?
Where's it going to draw the most attention?
So did they now did the attorney buy a ticket to the game just to serve Shaq?
Did he even stick around for the rest of the game where he just said I'll serve him up
and then walk out.
That's a good point.
It's just like it's it's such a ploy.
It gives good lawyers a bad name.
You know what I mean?
It sounds that is their good lawyer outfit.
Yeah, that's fair.
I guess it just depends on who you are.
I'm right.
They took a book out of the massage Watson paid.
Oh, so you know the buzz be do you know the bugs be.
Oh, buzz.
How many buzz buzz buzz?
You know he went to the game and show show solidarity, you know, right.
Support.
You know want to be seen.
Got a sweet got a sweet.
No, they probably got a sweet too and took took all the clients that are a part of that
class action lawsuit against Shaq's company and they hung out and watched the game and
then half time they went serving him up and then came back and got some more hors d'oeuvres
and said, yeah, we served the big diesel.
We served a big Shaq this.
Do you think that Shaq knew it was coming?
Do you think somebody taking off was coming at some point?
Yeah, I don't know that he knew it was coming at that moment.
Over under half time before Charles Barkley makes reference to it tonight during the telecast.
You know he's going to think that all we have is a sack gives him a hard ass time all
the time though.
Yeah, but Chuck is right back.
Yeah, he does.
I don't know man because Shaq you Shaq me.
Shaq probably won the knockout.
No one can understand Shaq sometimes though.
We talk about it all year.
What do I mean?
I understand.
I thought we were clearly going to be saying what I'm saying.
But his voice is so deep when he talks.
I got four rings you got none.
You stay out of this.
Well, Jonas and Ben thank you.
I mean, Birdo, do you hear the way LaBarsa just said that?
What you mean?
What do you mean?
That's just inappropriate.
Can't be racist.
I'm black.
It's not racist, Berto.
All right, fair.
Unfairly you.
Oh my now that was racist to tell you it wasn't racist.
Birdo, can we hear your sack impression?
That's racist.
I'm Shaq you know that's racist right there.
The bigger a stodel.
That's it right there.
That's racist.
Racist.
Thank you.
That was actually pretty good.
That's the bigger stodel.
Bigger stodel.
He does say that.
That's the big he's the bigger stodel.
I bet at some point someone makes a comment.
It might be Kenny because Kenny slick like.
Yes.
Over under your sand before halftime.
I'm going to take the over.
And they'll say something like, you know, they were really serving it up weren't they?
Oh, like they're going to go that direction.
They have to.
They will.
Well, you think Shaq they were serving them up.
Yeah.
Like that and you'll be like, don't play with me.
All right.
Yeah.
That's going to be where it goes.
It's going to be early.
I'm changing.
I'm going under.
He thinks I'm going under.
I think I'm going the under to.
I don't think they get out of pregame before somebody makes a joke about it.
It's got to happen.
It has to happen.
I mean, the fact that it's being talked about on nationally syndicated radio shows and
this morning, I mean, and it's making its ways around.
I'm sure.
Yeah, I'm sure that do something.
By the way, apparently there was a welfare check done on La Barra's guy, John Moran,
because he took to social media, started putting up some cryptic messages like, Oh,
no, geez.
Oh, no, love you, mom.
Love you, pops.
Like he said something about his baby girl.
Why can't he just text them and then just say bye.
Well, you don't get enough attention that way.
It's all about attention.
That I'll be honest with you not to get off on a tangent.
That's one of the things I hate most about social media.
Thank you.
La Barra, you're talking about that.
Like people are like, Oh, hey, man, happy birthday.
It's like, why don't you just call agreed?
Just give him a call or they use social media to directly communicate with people in a way
where it's like, like, why are you putting that here?
Like where are you putting that here for?
It's just a giant beauty party.
I was on a business Zoom yesterday and the one of the people on the call, this is actually
it was a woman who used this phrase, but she goes, have you tried sliding in their DMS?
Oh my God.
And I started to laugh and I'm like, do we not have a more professional way of describing
direct messaging people?
I was like, and I'm just sitting there like laughing myself thinking, like this is supposed
to be a business professional atmosphere.
And meanwhile, like the suggestion was to contact another company to slide in their
DMS.
And she goes, well, it's actually quite effective.
I go, trust me, I understand it's effectiveness.
I go, I just, I thought in this setting, maybe we'd use different vernacular.
Listen, it's taken over the world.
Social media is taken over the world.
And when you get it, want to get some attention and you want to throw.
And I know, listen, John Moran, you know, nobody wants him to do any harm to himself.
Nobody wants him to do any harm to anybody else.
But I'm sorry.
I don't feel bad for this guy at all.
I don't feel bad for him at all.
Yes, he's 23.
Yes, he's made mistakes, but there are opportunities to get it right.
It's not the end of the world.
All right.
You own up to what happened.
Don't play the victim.
Poor me crap on Instagram or social media or Facebook and all that.
That's why I got rid of my Facebook a long time ago because I was sick and tired of people
just begging, fishing for compliments, fishing for concern.
If there's a problem, just come out and say you have a problem or stay off social media
and go see a therapist.
Like, but this, this crap loses me.
And for some reason, this guy just continues to go down this road.
Like he's got to use social media to just showcase all his flaws.
It's crazy, man.
Like at what point are you trying to convince people that you want to end it?
That's what it seems like.
Let's look at it this way.
Like social media has not been good to him.
Like, he's just take a break from it all together.
Like he's in this position because of the stuff he's put out on social media.
It's like, dude, shut up.
Race the app, you know, whatever you need to do, but like maybe let's start there.
Why don't you get away from social media and get back to the real world and go seek
the help that you need, you know, instead of going on a social media app.
There's no help there for you.
Did you guys break that to you?
Did you guys see what Gilbert Arena said about it?
What's that?
Oh, basically like he's got a drug problem and he needs to go get help for it before it
ends like horribly bad.
Like that's basically what he said.
I mean, does he have confirmation of that or is that just reckless speculation?
I mean, it could be considered reckless speculation, but I'm just saying that's what
Gilbert Arena's offered up on his show, the No Chill Gill Show.
And I mean, wow, wow.
You talk, right?
Okay.
I mean, them circles are kind of small.
Them circles are kind of small.
I mean, that's been sort of the speculation.
Again, not me, but speculation with Antonio Brown, like when he started to get erratic
that there's a lot of just chemical and balance seem to have a lot of energy for a lot of
stuff and still be the hardest working guy at any.
I just I don't see how you could be sober and do what he did in the metal art.
It's not the metal lines anymore.
Do what he did in New York and then go show up to the basketball game that night.
Was it that night or the next day?
It was that night, right?
For God, he did show up to the basketball game.
Ran up off the field, almost butt naked and so I quit and then showed up to the next
game later on that night.
That's exactly what he said.
He's a player owner.
You know, now he's in an arena team.
I mean, imagine you walking down from a business meeting right out in the field.
You know, the players is.
I forgot he went to the next game or was it the Nets game?
Whatever you got.
You got to be there's got to be something there.
There's got to be something there.
What something are you talking about?
Some type of a substance is got to be.
It was snowing or what?
It might have been flurries.
But it could have been so many different things.
Like there's something like because now this whole playing killer, you know, epidemic is
like kind of like the thing like pill popping is is a real thing.
That's not always been a thing though.
It not like how it has been lately like like like and I mean like kids are freaking dying
left and right off was the.
Let it all.
No, do like and the amount of fentanyl it takes.
I think Brady and I were talking about this.
The amount of fentanyl it takes to get into whatever substance you use to kill you is so
it's like a a a a grain of sugar or something like that.
It's so small and you just see people, you know, without knowing it and just it and that's
a wrap.
It's sad, man.
Yeah, it's really sad.
I said I'm doing to look like paz's.
You know, the past the dispenser has or has has has has.
The past are they paz's or past has dispense.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Shut up.
Who?
Who?
Who?
I'm from Pittsburgh.
I got a.
You said it got to it.
By the way, let's go make paz.
Was there like a knockoff brand of paz's called paz's?
Paz.
Maybe.
Maybe.
I thought it might have been an eight.
I thought it was like a cultural.
Maybe like the cultural difference was paz.
That's what I'm saying.
Like who?
Those were spicier, you know, like, no, it's it's one of those things like you don't
know how people grew up.
Like, like, I remember like the best man, my, my, one of my best friends when he moved
my town, like in junior high, like I went over to his, you know, family's house around
Christmas and it never dawned on me like Santa Claus looks different depending on how
you grow up.
And so like that was the first time like I went in his house.
I was like, oh, oh, okay.
Like, like that.
That's just like, oh, your Santa isn't the same as mine.
Now I'm starting to figure out how sand is able to deliver all them gifts.
Your Santa goes comes to your house.
Mine comes mine.
Birdo goes to his like, yeah, that is.
We just got enough Santa's moving around.
That's all.
I just said, like, homely on the non blouse.
What are you saying?
Maybe this was the Santa Claus.
It was close.
It was just, yeah, it was past where you grew up.
It was PES right now.
I just don't remember them, but I know as I remember them.
I just didn't remember.
I do like the, I do like the smooth transition we went on this show from booger sugar to
pills to fentanyl to PES.
I do like how every food group was represented there.
That's every food group.
That's every food group.
It called me to show man, bitch.
Your Santa Claus looks a little different.
Your Santa Claus looks a little different.
Why is your Santa Claus ever sombrero?
I don't get it.
It's not Santa.
That doesn't fit down too many.
Because they leave it at the top and put it back on when he comes out.
How does that work?
Your Santa has dreads.
Do we cook these for Santa or a Santa?
Baturos.
What do we talk, bro?
By the way, this is a true story.
This is a true story.
This is Santa's some jerk tickets in a party.
So this is a true story.
We have this inflatable Santa at our house and it's called Tamali Santa and these tamales
pop.
They pop up out of the bucket.
So my sister-in-law brought a kid over and the kid looked up and saw the tamali Santa
and said, why does Santa have french fries in his basket?
I don't know, man.
A lot further review, they do look like fries.
They look like anything like tamales.
A lot of reviews.
But yeah, so merry Christmas to you.
What does Lee Santa Claus look like?
That's so good.
What's that?
He's mixed.
Bang-Rams?
Nah.
He's mixed.
That's the mixed one.
Yeah, Lee, what is your channel?
By Rachel.
Yeah, we were discussing that.
How to decorate the new plays.
It could look like Jimmy Buffett.
I actually did find a Santa with Hawaiian shorts on.
Oh, God.
It looks like Todd, just a little bit of a little.
Oh, man.
Oh, God.
Merry Christmas to all.
Oh, there you go.
All of a good night.

Like you know most people are lip singers.
It's called auto tune.
It's not that hard.
He killed this.
That ain't auto tune.
He killed this.
He killed this.
Then home girl came in and just just brought the house down.
Well sure voices ridiculous.
I mean she killed it.
And then when the little violin came in.
Come on.
We got you on this.
We just watched the movie.
I watched the movie for the first time the other day.
It's a sad movie.
It is pretty sad but it's a dope movie though.
I thought I was super dope.
Listen to that violin.
This song is fire done.
It's Bradley Cooper playing the favorite song.
It's my favorite song.
I don't think so.
But you're crap.
It doesn't have to be playing the violin.
You hate not a man.
It's a super throw.
I mean it's not a good song.
It's a great song.
I got to tell you man.
They say you can't give somebody everything.
I was like come on man.
I've been a fan of Bradley Cooper.
I was like man this dude is really singing this.
Come on man.
I mean with auto tune you can make Patrick Mahomes sound like Miley Cyrus.
You're hating man.
Why are you hating man?
Bro come on man.
Auto tune.
It's a dope ass.
Let's hate out of your heart Jonas.
Let it out.
Yeah man.
I mean you are.
I mean we didn't get any awards for doing this show.
I mean I mean I guess if we started hating hard enough.
Why can't you guys get haters of the year?
Can you like who wants to be the lady Gaga part and then who wants to be Bradley Cooper?
I don't know.
Don't ask me to sing.
I don't know to learn.
I just I mean I mean it's embarrassing.
I don't know if everyone makes fun of me all the time.
A link and I ask you how many people at Todd's karaoke spot do this song.
Oh it was nauseating when the movie came out.
Oh yeah absolutely.
And then everyone's doing duets with it.
There you go.
See.
She kills it doc.
Don't try to make fun of the song.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Turn it out.
That's Bradley's best part.
Turn it up.
Birdo.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know I had my cowboy hat on and my boots on.
I didn't have a bell buckle that I was out back barbecue and is this going to be played
during Memorial Day?
I mean probably so.
I listened to country all day that day.
All day.
Give me Butler.
All day.
Little Zach Brian.
I was going all day.
You never you know I never knew how many remakes of modern song or like mainstream songs
are were made in the country songs.
Oh yeah.
Like I just had the country radio station on like modern country is real talent.
Get fire man.
Take somebody else's song and got to twist it a little.
All right let's move on.
Let's move on.
Yeah.
That's it.
You know what?
You know what?
It's nothing like the real thing right.
Yeah.
And speaking of the real thing.
Did you know that artificial turf fake turf you know fake grass on football fields cause
32% more non-contact knee injuries.
So my people out of American grass seed company, Pennington is on a mission to ban turf fields
with their hashtag flip the turf movement.
So go to pennington.com slash flip the turf.
Now to learn more and sign the petition for teams to hashtag flip the turf to real grass.
What I'm talking about right there.
Professional LaVoir Eric did.
Just saying Bradley Cooper, Lady Gaga and smoothly transition right into a shout out for
Pennington.
How about that?
Yeah.
Here are two pros in a cup of Joe.
It takes real cowboy to understand what Pennington grass seed company is talking about.
Yep.
That's right.
I hear you.
That's right.
By the way you want to hear Andy read talk about this new fair catch rule in the NFL.
Yeah, I'm pretty interested.
He's got some thoughts on it.
Here was the Chiefs head coach weighing in on the new change to the league involving
the kickoff being moved to the 25 now on a fair catch.
My thing is where does it stop right?
So you start taking pieces and you know we'll see how this goes but you don't want to take
too many pieces away or you'll be playing flight football.
Yep.
It's only the beginning.
Only the beginning.
What are they, what are they playing out in the pro bowl?
The flag.
Yeah.
Have you ever noticed to the push the NFL has had with women's flag?
Women's flag.
Well, just flagging general.
Yeah.
There's a huge push too for that which they have to know that it's, you know, the sports
dead if it goes to flag football.
Let me ask you this.
Do you think that they're seeing if they can transition it all the way into flag based
upon possibly the, is there like, I know there's always lawsuits and always cases being put
together for the health of former players and stuff like that.
Do you think that with all of the continued studies of the health and the deterioration
of former guys's health that there could be a lawsuit so significant that they almost
have to, they're forced to change the entire model of what they do in football?
Potentially.
I mean, I think that would be like the conspiracy theory behind it because, look, Andy Reed brings
up a great point.
For starters, if you look at what they're able to do with the fair catch rule, it's
the most dangerous play, right?
As far as concussions are concerned and they want to, they think this rule will reduce the
concussion rate from 38% to like 31%.
Something in that ballpark, like that's their projections.
So obviously they're trying to make it a safer play and they're trying to make it a safer
play by not even having the play.
They're just ceremonially having a kickoff.
The interesting thing too, I think about like the kickoff and choosing to implement this
rule is I was talking with the beat wagon yesterday.
Yeah.
And we were talking about how our kicker in high school, a guy by the name of Adam Grassel,
I mean, absolute leg, right?
Right.
Ended up going to pit to both kick and punt.
And I asked him, I said, who was our wedge buster in high school?
He goes, well, we didn't really need one because Adam would just kick it out of the
end zone every single time.
And I'm like, oh, yeah, I remember that.
And when I thought back, I'm like, what does the NFL just do that then?
Well, instead of making this whole fair catch for all that, move the ball up.
Five yards.
Yeah.
And then you make it to the point where now kickers are kicking out of the back of the
end zone.
If a guy wants to return it, so be it, but he's catching the ball somewhere in the end
zone.
So often that he's really got to contemplate, do I want to bring this ball out or not?
Because if I do bring it out, obviously, if you're moving with a kick taking place,
you're obviously moving up where the guys who are fielding the kick would be taking place.
So they're going to be up on that returner faster too.
And so it almost in a way, you don't really make this odd rule with the whole fair catch
and all that.
You just say, we're going to move it up and we're going to get more balls being kicked
out of the end zone.
And maybe you get some squib kicks.
Maybe you get some onside kicks or surprise on sides.
People are more trying to do that because that's part of the discussion point is if you
just say, we're just going to put the ball to 25 and we're going to start the game.
And that's how the series is going to start.
You lose the element of a potential onside kick, which is needed, obviously, towards
the end of games, unless you want to really change the rules altogether and make it this
whole fourth down thing we see in other developmental leagues.
Or you try to tweak it in a way that might incentivize the kicking team to do so.
And if you're closer to midfield, which you would be in this scenario, it would make
more sense.
You might be more apt to try that.
So I'm surprised they've gone with this tweak.
And obviously it's worked in college football.
I'm sure they use that as the case study for how they can make it a safer play.
But I think just moving up the kickoff 10 yards where you now got guys are just going
to boot it out at the end zone.
There's not even a chance to return it.
It accomplishes every goal.
You still have that potential of an onside kick.
You still have the chance of a return, but less likely, which reduces the amount of
concussions.
And then for the TV networks, you can still say, hey, we kick offs at this time because
we still actually have a kickoff as we move forward.
The days of the great kick returners dead.
They'll never be another kick returner that you would argue.
That guy's a Hall of Famer like a Devin Hester or somebody.
So I think they now, if Devin Hester and whoever else you want to put in that conversation,
you get a push now more than ever to get guys like that in the Hall of Famb.
Because once once we stop paying attention to that play, no one's going to push for
it.
Yeah, nobody.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But then it's not going to happen because I can't see it happening anytime soon.
Hester will get in.
I don't know, man.
He's been on the, I think he was a semi-finalist last year.
I don't know.
He's gotten pretty close.
I mean, I don't know.
Well, think about a guy like Matt Slater, who's a core special teams guy who, how many
times has he been to a pro bowl?
Yeah, it's been a lot.
Double digits.
It's well done.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If you look at his career from that standpoint as a, as a pro bowl player, I think it's been
an all pro a number of times too as a special teams player, he's considered a Hall of Famer.
Like, I know it sounds crazy to people, but as a special teams player, 10 pro bowls,
two all pros, three super bowls.
Like that's a Hall of Fame resume, but we just don't look at the same and we're never
going to look at the same if a guy like that is a no longer really a part of the game or
a part of these plays, which is crazy to think 10 pro bowls.
That's phenomenal.
Sure.
But you don't, I don't know.
I don't know if he'll get in.
I'm not certain that he'll get in.
You know what's most impressive about that is you actually have a lesser chance of getting
in as a core special.
Cause how many do they even take to the pro bowl?
Like two.
I think there's one one, like one special teams guy gets in.
As I remember Steve Tasker was the guy for years for the AFC.
You know, I'm saying so like that's like it's, it's understated how big of an accomplishment
that is.
Absolutely.
Such a small margin.
It's yeah, you got no, I mean, it's ridiculous what Slater has done in the special teams
realm and people probably won't even appreciate it.
Yeah, that's a, yeah, it makes me sad.
