I don't know what you should do, Mike.

0:02.6

I think I'd rather take a bullet in the head.

0:04.4

I'd rather stick needles in my eyes.

0:05.9

I don't know what to say.

The Beyond Dumb 2 to 6 show, right?

Jackpot!

What a great college football game that was.

0:16.1

Second half, anyway.

0:17.2

What a great product.

0:18.6

I thought it was great.

0:19.7

I mean, I think they beat the crap out of each other in the first half, and the second half, it all loosened up, and they made plays, and they, you know, it's like boxers in the 11th and 12th round, you know, it's just haymakers everywhere. It reminded me of the Super Bowl between the Patriots and the Panthers. Oh, tremendous. Tremendous game. Tremendous night. And I could give two poops about college football.

0:38.1

I literally could give two small little nugget poops about that sport. Like I said, other than Wisconsin, which is my home team. The only game I watch beginning to end is Army Navy. Like, I could care less about college football. And that thing, how could you leave the TV? Did you go to bed last night, man? Yep. Oh, boo. Come on.

0:55.5

How do you do that?

0:57.4

I mean, the first half of you're right, wasn't that gripping. But, you know, once that thing got going back and forth, once that Hawaiian kid came in for Alabama. On that first series, like, that's when it was really like, oh, we got something here. We're going to actually get a game, and the rest of it was. And the balls, I thought, on Nick Saban, to sit down Jalen Hurts, who's been their quarterback, and I think he sucks, too. But to sit

him down, and to also turn to the true freshman running back, and riding those guys in the second half, that took some stone. Freshman running back. Yeah, the, he started really handed off to a freshman running back, too. That means, I'm sorry, But he was starting to take over the game. You just said the last second it matters. I don't mean to dump on you.

2:01.5

But freshman running backs are all over the place. To insert a freshman quarterback at half time of the national championship game. That's, you know... Balls, policy move. That's on Nick Saban's resume. But putting in a freshman running back, who cares? Hand of the ball only runs. Like, sorry, Murray, I mean, a dump on you, but it just doesn't... A true freshman running back, that doesn't... A true freshman quarterback. And I thought the way that they managed him was brilliant. His very first play, I think was a run. Just a a simple keeper around the end. And, you know, this thing about this kid, he's tough. He sticks his nose in there. Like, he welcomed contact. He lowered his head on a couple tackler. But it's like, first play, get him hit, get him warm. Second play was like a little slant over the middle. And like they threw a ton. But I thought just the way they managed him and got him going was just so like how much coaching matters in that sport and how much quarterbacking matters in that sport. And you get the two together. It's like, I don't know, that's on Nick Saban's resume, isn't it? Oh, absolutely. And it just proves again that he, along with Belichick, unlike any others, can make the opposition pee their pants time and time again. And it just, when they got back into that game, I was like, okay, I started to feel like Alabama was going to find a way to win this game. Now, they almost didn't and almost deserve not to because of their idiot kicker. Oh, my God.

3:07.3

Now, I didn't really pull for anyone. I just wanted to see an entertaining game, so either way it was a win for me. But at the end, I was like, all right, I'd like to see Alabama pull this off so that he has the six national championships. That idiot kicker. And the camera paned to the nervous, sweaty Greek kicker on the sideline, and you saw one of his teammates talking to him,

3:08.1

I lost my mind.

3:10.3

I tweeted it all in caps because I yelled it to my television.

4:17.4

What the hell you're doing talking to the kicker so there were two things so Alabama's a chance you don't know Alabama had a chance to win the game in the final seconds and they line the kid up for like a 33 yarder from the middle of the field chip shot okay and as they're sort of working the ball down to get in this chip shot field goal range, they keep showing the kicker at the net. And one time, a big defensive lineman or, you know, a big fella comes over and it's like in his face. I know what Murray's talking about. And then the last, did you see the last shot of the kicker before he left the net? Do you see the guy prang? Yeah. So there's a guy on his knees with his hands in his head like this. Right next to the net where the guy's kicking. I'm like, well, don't put too much pressure. Like now you're really climbing in the kid's head. And at the buzzer, it was a can of corn 33-yard field goal right down the middle. And he yanked it. He missed the kicking net, you know, like it ended up in the stands. He couldn't even hit the net behind the field goal. Oh, no, he missed it by like 15, 20 yards. He was left all night. Even the one he hit, he was left. He was left all night. It was a formality, and especially when you get in his head. You can't go talk to a kicker in that moment. So Murray, you're a big purveyor of Chadenfoid. Oh, that came.

4:34.7

It ever, ever, Murray, you're a big purveyor of Chadenfoid. Oh, that came. It had everything. You had pain on one side and then pain on the other. And then there's really institutionalized loserdom in the Georgia Bulldogs, too. I witnessed it when I was down there, and it happened again. Oh, that was such a brutal way to lose.
