Don Lemon Tart, the school president of the Big Ten, did not want football this year, I think it was unanimous. It was like, I don't know, twelve to three or something like that.

Still got you not know what unanimous is? No, it was overwhelming. Thank you.

Seven in the third, this incident live at our show with these still got on ESPN Radio.

Chris Jericho, good to join us at eleven thirty a.m. Eastern on the show, Pennzoil Performance Line, the flyweight championship. Champions are going to war at UFC 255 when both Deverson, Figueredo and Valentino Shevchenko defend their belts. UFC 255 is exclusively available to ESPN plus subscribers for sixty four. Ninety nine, visit ESPN plus dot com backslash Peevey for more detail. Shevchenko.

OK, I want to replay that rejoin in a second because it's one of my favorite things that Strogatz does when we're trying to trap him in a corner on something stupid that he's done when he starts shooting like kitty litter turds all over the place, just trying to move away from us because he knows we're coming to get him after he does something dumb. How do I get out of this? Yes. What do I do? I just let me cover it up somehow.

But before we do that, let's go back here to Christine Lacy.

And finally, brain activity can shorten your life. Congrats to that one coming. All right.

So I want to replay this region again because this happens comedy by accident happens with Stargardt's all the time. So he says things that you might write in a script like, you know, I think it was unanimous. It was like 12 to three or something. And so watch just how he starts shooting kitty litter turds all over the place as soon as me and Mike notice what he's done.

Don Lemon card, the school president, the Big Ten did not want football this year. I think it was unanimous. It was like, I don't know, twelve to three or something like that.

Still got you not know what unanimous is? No, it was overwhelming of it there. Thank you. Seven in a third. This is my third show with these two guys on the air. And you're saying something.

You were saying something about third of an inning in baseball is what?

You were just throwing things into the air. But because dugout is what he is. What I want to get into about this Taysom Hill story is. Mike gave away the game. Man, do you realize on sports, television and sports radio how much content we get out of pretending like we know as much as the people making the decisions who have more money and more time and more effort invested in this? And they can get it wrong. But all of the probabilities in terms of information and expertise are on their side.

But we get to come to a microphone and say, look how stupid he is and then we'll take Sunday's game. And if Taysom Hill plays poorly, we're like, look at that idiot, Sean Pate. He might know how to make any quarterback do good things, even one who's got a new LAAM and forty three. But look at what an idiot Sean Payton is. I knew that would turn out that when Mike gave away the game. But it's not going to stop me from playing the game.

I'll never stop playing that game. I mean, that's the lifeline of sports radio is questioning a guy whose job it is profitable for. You certainly know I disagree.

How did that work out for Bill O'Brien that he know more than everyone else? No, he didn't. He cost his team horribly with his bad trades. And now he doesn't have a job because he didn't know more than everyone else. Just because they're the coach doesn't mean they know everything else. They know more than Stewart does more than these guys.

But this this is where you guys are arguing the thing again, where because a guy makes a decision that it's bad, you would have always made the right decision, the people, and crushed him.

Right when he made the decision. No, I understand that everyone crushed him and everyone turned out to be right about Bill O'Brien. That's not my point. My point is about the quarterbacks and the general things that we extend to coaches while thinking that we're always right. You can point out all the times that you get to be right with the failures. It doesn't mean that the person doing that doesn't have more invested in more expertise and knowledge in what he's doing than we do.

But you could be armed with more information and be the head coach and the guy in charge. And you see him every day in practice and that still doesn't make it right. In fact, I would challenge Sean Payton on this decision because he has a quarterback who is thrown north of 30 touchdowns. He's trying to win a conference, trying to win a Super Bowl. And he's going with a guy who's thrown eighteen passes in his professional career. You dumb decision, but you can challenge him.

He's got a lot more information, investment and expertise than you do on this matter, though, of course. But that's your only opening. The fact that he can be wrong doesn't get to make you right every time in terms of knowing more than that person. And what the media is replete with is guys who think they know more than the people who are making the decisions. We've got an entire cottage industry that's hugely profitable on us, pretending like we know as much as the people making these decisions.

But if Hill plays poorly on Monday, you'll still argue that Sean Payton was armed with more information, had more information to make the right decision than me or Billy did. And I'm saying, what if he'll plays bad? What if he plays poorly? You're still going to say the same thing. And I'm going to say Sean Payton was wrong. But what I'm doing now is saying it on the front. It again covers again. No, but you couldn't pronounce his name correctly.

Good point. Yeah.

I mean, and you were saying that the person who's making this decision with this expertise, I understand that we as fans and media members want to think that we can be right about this stuff, that we know more. It placates our ego. It seems like something that would be hugely fun to be a know it all about these things. And we can all laugh at Bill O'Brien. It's the rare instance where we all get to laugh at one guy, Bill O'Brien.

While none of us have any bleeping idea how Bill Belichick keeps doing that all the time, all of these years winning with those players, none of us, none of nobody talking in the media, nobody, not Bruschi, not anybody knows how Belichick has dominated that sport for two decades. You're right. But there are no examples I can give you where we laughed at someone or question someone. Kliff Kingsbury is a good example of that. They just took Josh Rosen.

He went out and got Kyla Murray with the first pick. Murray may go play baseball. There were a lot of questions about Kyla Murray and they ended up being right and a lot of people mocked them at the time for being wrong.

So let me ask you this question to guys. Every decision from now on made on a football matter, I'm asking Sean Payton or I'm asking Stewart. The audience has something of worth at risk on this. Yeah. What are the probabilities going to be from the same audience members who think that they know more or media members who think that they know more about how to make these decisions than the people who are paid a lot of money to have this particular expertise?

If I made it about your life, if I made it actually life and death instead of what sports fans turned sports into, which is life and death, I say you've got to be right who you're going with on the quarterback decision, Stewart says it's wrong to go Taysom Hill. Sean Payton says it's right to go. Taysom Hill. What do you want, information or no information? Somebody who knows that a. Pronounce his name or somebody who doesn't know how to pronounce his name.

I mean, Dan, I might still be right. I mean, you might want to just jump in there and you might be dead. I mean, you're giving the game away. Exactly.

That is correct. You might be right. And our entire flimsy foundation is built upon that. Everyone arguing in sports, television, maybe I'm right this two percent of the time and that will take a victory lap reminding you of it. I mean, Stephen A. Smith got the Lakers right as a prediction. Hadn't he missed the last six predictions that he'd done on the NBA finals, who indisputably we can all say he knows a lot about basketball, is turned into the guys taking turns saying how they were right about things.

That's been for ten years. Yes, that's a joke in their office. Oh, another one of these segments, the I was Right segment. But if you choose me, I mean, you're right. Your overall point is correct. If you choose me, your chances of dying go way up.

And that is correct. But it is a wonderful way for us to all make a living. It really is.

It's still got a favorite time of the day at time. We gave away the whole game there. That's a lot of programming, that's a lot of programming we get all over the place to do in this game. I know more than Sean Payton. Sometimes I get to be right.

The bad decision. Chris Jericho knows more than other people we are proving this all the time around here, that the only actions of the people who don't have expertise, Chris Jericho is going to join us. He continues. Is it eight weeks now, Mike? He is.

He is taken out, just tied the all time record. Wow.

So if he advances, he will be the longest reigning champion in the Jericho nine consecutive weeks.

Nitro, the American gladiator at eight and then Carrot Top at seven. I'm like 75 percent sure that's how that one.

Don Lemon, today, it's a giant industry of people just giving you their opinions, which you could just go to Twitter and there are plenty of opinions there. It's just a trough. It's a business. You know, there's the dumpster fires and there, you know, every once in a while you get your eyebrows singed and you'll come down with an illness that'll last for a month, some terrible depression.

And sometimes you'll find out useful information like today is Brian Adams birthday OK?

Usually it's not worth it, though. It really is. It's still got. How old is Brian? Sixty one. Still getting it done right. Still is getting it done.

That's ambiguous, I guess. I mean, somebody music them. You mean music or did you just make him breathe it? Should you be getting it done? It's about a comment that you can make some ignorant.

This is about our show. Were there still guides on ESPN Radio?

Still get that. ESPN Radio is edited by Progressive's All.

But sure, it's a ridiculous thing to say. Bryan Adams still getting it done. It's basically talking just for the sake of their not being silent yet.

You're quite a progressive knockout today. If you missed any of the show. We'll get to that as I get there. It's time for straight talk. It is brought to you by Straight Talk Wireless. Go ahead. Conversation.

OK, so what do we have what do we have from stupidity here? You've been working on things.

I we dropped a new episode today of Stupidity, one of the big games this weekend. I can't believe I'm saying this is Northwestern and Wisconsin. Both teams are undefeated in the Big Ten. We have a weekend where Northwestern and Indiana are playing the two big football games. So I had Pat Fitzgerald, the Northwestern coach. I didn't really have much to talk about the game my daughter has committed there to play college lacrosse. She is excellent. I am super proud of her.

But it is time for me to get inside of that school and that football program. And that's why I had the coach on. A guy like Greaney is inside. He's doing pregame speeches and so was Will Board. And we talked to him about his relationship with Grania Well-born and who peppers it more with text. But it's time for me to get inside of Northwestern.

Well, let's talk about this for a second here, because this is an interesting episode.

Poddy, if you've been following this show for a while, we have been trying very hard to put students in a place where he can stand proudly next to Michael Wilbon with all of Michael Wilbon, Northwestern credentials, journalism credentials, Washington Post credentials, a hit TV show across fifteen years credentials. Mike Wilbon does not like to gods know and I like Mike Wilbon.

I do. I respect to Dan. You know this. You know that I respect Michael Wilbon.

You know that Mike Wilbon will mother bleep in a way that is unfriendly. And and it's weird to me because it's not something I've actually heard directly from him. It's awkward for me because I also am friendly with Michael and and it's I don't know, he takes himself seriously. Northwestern is part of that. Greenberg takes himself seriously. Northwestern is part of that. And so when he has friends with those guys and you're trying to ingratiate yourself slimey so that your sister can be at this hour, I'm sorry, your daughter can be at the same school with the same education as the guys who look at Stewart and see someone not worthy of Northwestern.

Was Pat Fitzgerald willing to play with you or does he revere those two guys as the serious ESPN journalist and therefore he's not here to fool around with the Northwestern football legacy?

No, he was he was playful. He likes those guys. He respects those guys. He said by far greenies, the one who reaches out to him more. The Wilbon does, by the way. But he likes those guys a lot. But he said it doesn't mean and I explained to him, hey, me and Greaney get along fine. Me and Mike's family get along fine. Me and Wilbon, not so much. And he said, that's OK.

That doesn't mean you can't be part of this Northwestern family. I have enough love to spread for everyone. And I thought that was very nice of it.

It is. And but the weird thing to me is like Duke doesn't actually have any enemies other than Wilbon, does he? Like who still got his enemies? This is not like don't we need to broker peace on this at some point? What do I need to do?

I'm talking to a guy that has a list next to his bed on his nightstand to people he thinks might try to kill him. Well, it's dance number three on that list, by the way.

Just say, all right. So what is that updated list for those of you who do not know those two guards, keep a list in the drawer next to his desk just so that people. You can find it in the event that he's killed of his rankings of people most likely to have killed him. I'll give you the top three. Dickeyville was on there, but we made up. Oh, really?

So that beef is over. So, OK, not quite rising to the level of gooky and Jizzy, but still guards against Dickeyville beef over. He is no longer on the list of people who might have killed the gods if there's some sort of murder mystery. Yeah, Kevin Durant is right about four or five. I can't remember where I left them. A CD is certainly on that list. You are holding steady at number three. You've always been at number three and you remain at number three.

Unlike the Wisconsin of this, like people would suspect that perhaps maybe I'm guilty of it, but I never actually do it. I'm always others receiving votes.

There's a former agents of business partners who were who are down on the list. OK, but number two, now, it was Dick vital, but number two now is Michael Wilbon to say, oh, wow, rich guys, it is also on the list. He might kill me. I mean, Diamond Dallas Page is on the list. We got a lot of guys on the list. And number one, holding steady at number one is the former owner of 790 The Ticket in Miami.

I mean, that's that's probably the person and rightfully so, by the way, the person most likely to kill me.

Abby's fourth, by the way.

OK, so the the original owner that created this radio show, the existence of this radio show. Yes. He wants to kill you.

I'm not saying definitively. All it is, is I've left a note for cops. Hey, if I'm missing, if you know you can't find me and then you find my body and it's dead, decomposed underground. A couple of days later, here's a list of the ten people most likely to do it. That's it. It's just a clue for the cops. That's all it is. What what am I going to do about this Wilbourne relationship? Because our audience has turned on Welburn.

You do not want this to Godse Army mad at you. And it is it is a loud and passionate army. And there are about what dugouts is about gritty, gritty, you know, gritty, determined laziness. Well, I think I speak for them and I love to be their representative because they can't imagine that a person like me or themselves could make it to ESPN and be doing this for a living. So I'm proud to be their leader.

Yes. Yes. But why won't Wilmont accept that you have come to overtake his things?

He's lame. I don't want to go to the Obama party. We don't need to repair anything. I'm saying to you, Jack.

Thank you, my man. Yes. We all right with you.

You got to worry about than playing both short and he's third on my list. That is straight talk. It is brought to you by straight talk wireless. No contract, no compromise.

It's still got a favorite time of the day at time.

I think that you will make me laugh for the rest of time doing that limited fake Sean Connery that all you have is is the lisp on Shites employing both.

Shirish, you will not be a listen. I want you if you're speaking at my funeral, I want you to throw that sentence in there like that with no reference.

OK, Shirish. And if you're at my funeral, just know Dan probably get it. Yeah, I'll give him a couple of people a ring.

Chris Jericho joins us next. Don Lemon tart, Dave Coulier is with us. Did you see the Shandling documentary Judd Apatow did to.

Yeah, I was in it. This incident, 11th Hour Show with these two guys on ESPN Radio.

Chris Jericho is back again. I'd say he's feeling pretty good about himself, but I think he's always feeling pretty good about himself. He's going to join us here on the show Pennzoil Performance. All right.

Before we get to him, and our celebrities are 29, 20 and one on the season. Jerko is 2014 and one Colin Cowherd is under 500. So last week, Colin Cowherd was foreign one. And that was going to be tough for Chris Jericho to survive that. But he went for 011. Yeah. So he beat Colin Cowherd. Before we get to Jericho, though, let's get to Christine Lacy.

And finally, eating your food slowly can help you lose weight. Oh, no. So that's Dan's problem. Right. I do it fast.

OK, thank you, Christine. Appreciate it. So, Chris Jericho, he always wins. He is a winner. And what is happening around here is a bit crazy because what we do is we show you every week for years now that the experts don't know what they're talking about. And Colin Cowherd, he talks to white guys. He talks to guys who break down film. And so we just challenge him with random celebrities over the years. And Nitro, the American Gladiator, had topped Carrot Top and now Chris Jericho is tied with nitro.

So you feel the pressure. Where does this rank for you, Jeriko, in terms of most nervous? You've been understanding that you don't get terribly nervous.

Erika, does it feel the spots where you felt the most pressure?

Where does this rank? First of all, how do I feel when I'm sitting here thinking, oh, my goodness, I am one of the greatest prognosticators of all time? I mean, how do you think I'm feeling right now? I'm feeling so amazingly humbled to be back on your show knowing that I am the greatest Niarchos done. No one knows who he is because he'll have a real name. This is Dave, Ed, Dave, like, you know, natural.

He's out. Jericho's in a Christina Green is probably right now, this time in the United States, the number one most trusted football NFL pitcher of all time. And you guys know it's true. So it's a great feeling for me to be to be this humble and know that I am the greatest for sure.

OK, well, we're going to pick some more games, but I would like somehow one can one of you blogs out there please create great beef between Chris Jericho and Nitro, the American gladiator. Who Jericho.

Where you're being cruel to. You're being very.

Don't go to McDonald's if I can. Cheeseburgers and fries. He's heard of the guy. I don't know. His name is. Don't know. He looks like he's John. Jericho's in nature is out. Let's get this week's going. Okay.

Hold on. We will in a second. Again, I just I want the blogs to pick up the fact that you are just burying nitro, the American Gladiators, LELAY. And so if you can just one more time do it a little bit extra so the blogs can create a news story that you have challenged nature of the American gladiator to be someone you know, someone you've heard of, someone who's not name dead or who lives.

Don't, don't don't put words in challenge because they don't know who he is. No more like he can go up and throw a football paper in my face. I wouldn't know who he was. So natural. Graduation's a moment in the sun. You were once at one time the most critically acclaimed football prognosticator in the Levothyroxine history. It's gone. You're done. All right. And I've heard a rocket. I've taken over this smell, so I'm going to do it again this week.

All right. This is big. He has said he has called his shot. Don't I know it this time for a celebrity prognosticator?

Let's win some money, AGW Dynamite every Wednesday, 8:00 p.m. Eastern on TNT. But that's not why he's here. He doesn't care about the promos. He is here only to kick that nitro ass. That's what this is about. He is. Who is the guy?

That is because it does not. Who is that guy?

That's my father. I love your father. He's my favorite guy.

I mean, we heard his voice.

The lines are provided by Caesar's William Hill, Atlanta at New Orleans. Drew Brees is out. Taysom Hill is your starter. Who is Chris Jericho? Half New Orleans minus for. I think the team is going to rally around a fallen comrade. I'm going with New Orleans, New England, at Houston, Houston, plus two at home. Is that kind of a walk, but I'm here. I was used to my my gut instincts of being the greatest prognosticator.

So I'm I'm taking New England right now to Philadelphia and Cleveland. Now, you are the greatest prognosticator in the history of prognostication, but you were one in four two weeks ago. So I think you might want to dial it back a little bit.

Hey, brother, doesn't bother asking how many goals you scored these late right now, how you saw the goals they just asked and how many. I'm back here for a reason and I'm going with the Cleveland. Who's Cleveland?

Cleveland is minus three at home against Philadelphia. Philadelphia.

Boom, boom in your face. Mike Ryan, Tennessee, Baltimore, Baltimore. Minus five and a half at home. Who you got? Can I think of two more boring names in cities, I mean, throw the dart on the board and my prognosticator, Baltimore, that's going to make you feel it.

Miami at Denver, Denver, plus three and a half at home. Who you got? Denver all the way my city, baby. All right, Jerico, we will talk to you again next week. If you survive what you will, whatever the beat becomes publicly with Nitro, the American Gladiator.

Thank you for the great, because this week our cloud control cloud is a tree branch for all of America's great stuff. It goes here. I will be back next week. I'll probably be here till the end of the season and I'll bleed over till next season.

I love it. Yes. All right. All right. All the time you heard it. That's the headline. Bloggers of the American Gladiators couldn't stop it.

That is why Jericho tells all the NFL prognosticators think you know it, baby. All right.

Now escalated stuff it and stick it later. Go, Jerico.

Nothing in life is free. Time for some ads. He's never sounded older, no less. Champion is 50. He's 50 years old. He's so old stuff. It's stuff. He didn't stick it. One of the great entertainers of our time, one of the great wrestling entertainers of our time. Something didn't stick. It is the best he could do. Don Lemon Liotard, it's Friday, I'm getting into the weekend, I want to get my drink on Stu Godse.

We've got to open up the club.

Open it, open it, open it now. But is the computer buffering, Aaron, is this incident our show? Were there still guides on ESPN Radio?

ESPN Radio is presented by progressive insurance sounds this week have been brought to you by my computer career training for a better life.

So, Mike, I don't know exactly what happened or what I'm allowed to say about what happened. And I also don't know what we can do here at the end of the week. You have been sad here recently because the club is going to be something that has to go away for some reason, because we don't because music rights, things are changing or like what can we do the club today? Or it's that you can do the club.

The club is alive, but not alive and well. Basically on TV, you could enjoy the experience of Debbie Dabbs. Look at weekend, an absolute banger of a classic song, however, because we're on ESPN Plus now and several people at ESPN just discovered that her show has been available on demand there for several years. They realize, oh, we can only pay for songs once on the damn libertador show. Again, this was the case for several years.

No one noticed.

OK, so but so how many more times can we play it? No, you can play Debbie. Deb, look out. Weekend for the radio audience and it will be the club proper to those people that are listening. But it'll be now on TV the way it is on the podcast, some other song or maybe nothing at all on TV, I'm not exactly sure. But the club sounds, which are the real star of this. It's not that big, Deb.

They'll be playing, but we need the music with the sound. Yeah, I'll be playing the music.

I just do a little finagling here with my board and I take the royalty, the commercial music out of program and you hear nothing.

All right. So are you ready to do this or you're not yet have all the sounds already?

I know, but this is an exciting fireworks show. End of the week. This is all the plates spinning at once.

It's going to be just as fun for you guys, OK? Yes, I think it's zero fun for everybody.

OK, do do you need some bonus sports content for me or do we have time to go? Just straight. Take five minutes.

Yeah, I can. Opening the club. Just give me like thirty seconds. If you want to preview tonight's MLS playoff match up. It's not what I want to talk about.

I'll give you three one one oh oh. Don't let me tie Nashville. I'll give you 30 versus in seconds of I'll give you 30 seconds of filibuster and then you get the song ready. All right. Well, OK.

All right. You got three to one. I just got a Heisman vote and my father just got a Heisman vote. What are we supposed to do with this? Like we both have Heisman, but I don't know what to do this season with the Heisman vote.

I have one of them, like, seriously, what are we supposed to do? Some teams have played four games. Coronaviruses said everyone, we should give a trophy that's missing an arm and a leg on the Heisman Trophy.

But some teams have played four and five games. I'd give it to the Indiana quarterback. All right. Whoever he is headed my. Let's go.

So what we do here is we just reminisce about sounds gone by during the course of the work week, it's what time is it in Alaska? Some listener says we're opening up the club. It's 7:00 a.m. in Alaska.

It's eight fifty in what is the first sound in the club space.

And we're watching Northwest and Northwest defeated, by the way, I told you, state after Northwestern wins. If Philadelphia loses, they are still up.

I don't remember that. What was that? That's Ryan Clark's limited fake.

Oh, I'm sorry. Play it again. I'm sorry, Stace. I got one, though.

The northwestern part that got me confused is I never knew it was Ryan Clark. I just thought it was some white announcer stated.

And I were watching Northwestern Northwestern undefeated, by the way. I told states, hey, state after Northwestern wins, if Philadelphia loses, they are still up.

Who else is in the club?

Do we want to have sex with Giants or. No, it's between four and six. That is Daryl Morey. He's been handed the kingdom of the Philadelphia seventy six. He thought he was going to do something like that for a living. Yes, I thought he was going to write basketball musicals for a living, how to bring the parts into compliance.

I just cannot grasp the mechanics.

Again, that is me, a sports expert, Dan Levitas, thinking that he left the rockets to do things like music, how to bring the parts into compliance. I just cannot grasp the mechanics. Yeah.

So he instead went to be the architect of whatever happens around him being intimate. Yeah. Good work by me.

Well, what's the name for this day? I just work at a big show.

I missed him. I wanted to get him on today. Yes. Let's make sure to get him Monday because I didn't like how the last segment ended. I really do like Richard Lewis.

What else? What's the name for this day? I just work at a big show.

I think it could be great if they lost him on the right. You got to root for in the end and win the big show.

You did. But I think of who are you sure.

You totally sure. I'm totally. Shall we root for that? I am rooting for what kind of spread is in that game.

Like I think it's only twenty four. So overwhelming. Yeah. Which is weird for their Heisman Trophy winning quarterback with the beer.

Who else is in the club. We'll take a quick timeout. You guys figure.

Yes, that is true. God's getting angry and hanging up on our own show.

Want to bring on my good buddy Ken Arnold, Everglades Capital Management, the Herschelle Arnold team. Kenny, how are you doing today?

Kenny waiting for Ken, trying to hook him up here. Ken, you with us?

What do we got him? You guys got it?

Well, in the club that's back in them days, man.

Which game is he doing this weekend to leave? He's doing one of the games this week and I am looking forward to what that broadcasting career blossomed.

Not sure he has a game this week because Fox had like all the early one o'clock games last week, they may have dipped into the bench.

I want more to leave as a broadcaster.

Who else is in the club is so aggro. Yeah, yeah. That is Pablo Torre being Pablo Torre. Who else?

You know what song he's singing. What song. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. That is not a real song Cyclamen.
