Al and Jerry had a bet.

Al said that Bill Belichick would not coach the first week of the college football season.

Jerry said he would.

And if Jerry lost, he'd have to spend an entire day in his home and not go anywhere, which is torture for Jerry.

And if Jerry won, Al would have to go to a baseball game and hate himself for that day.

I would be willing to go double or nothing.

He is pretty sure that the bills are going to come in at the under nine and a half win mark.

Really?

So if you'd like to go double or nothing, maybe, and we can push this to 2026, that would be a game at City Field.

I just, I need to know one baseball game, one football game.

That's fine? There's the double or nothing. That's fine? Not two baseball games. I would do that, okay? And it's got to be a jet like Thursday night game. Well, see, I don't want to do that. I have to want to do it too. All right. So, here's the thing with the football game. We're tailgating. we're showing up three hours before kickoff,

and we're probably not leaving until two hours after the game.

You cannot leave until the game is over. Right. That's fine. So double or nothing, you're in? You think you're that confident in the bills going under? Well, I was confident in the bills, but then Jerry's given me their schedule, and then I was reading things on the internet over the weekend that there's a conspiracy that the NFL wants the bills to win the Super Bowl.

They gave them such a weak schedule. Maybe you should have looked at their schedule before you said they'd win less than 9-AFT. It's like they're playing the AFC East and then the bottom worst teams ever in the NFL. Yeah, well, I mean, it's just the way it works out. And, you know, many people say the 49ers may have the easiest schedule in the NFL as we get started. And on the opposite end of that is, of course, the New York Giants. The schedule is a

formula that is set once the last game is played. And you just don't know. And the thing about

that is, yeah, yeah okay the paper looks

fine that's a tough team that's a tough team that was last year's playoff team you never know what

that team is like until you play them that day they can be missing their starting quarterback like

the dallas cowboys were missing dac last year for nine games or it could be the commanders

who yeah end up being a hell of a lot better than you thought that'd be. And the Jaguar's worse than we thought last year. Yep. All right, so double or nothing or not? I'm not really confident in this Bill's thing. I mean, I was until Jerry read me their schedule and they've got, I think they'd play the Saints four times. All right, so we'll leave it alone then. You just, you owe me a baseball game. That seems fair. Yes. Yeah, no, it's very fair. That was the original bet. All right. We are brought to by Roto Router America's neighborhood plumber. Let's see, we're talking NFL, so we can do that, I suppose, first. You guys are talking about the Jets getting started Sunday. We've got the Giants Sunday. Well, Thursday night, we've got the Eagles and the Cowboys. Here's Jalen Hertz, Super Bowl champion quarterback. He's just talking about thoughts of facing what should be a new look, Dallas defense, not specifically because of Michael Parsons, but because of who's in charge of it?

Defensively, you know, with coach having a new defensive coordinator,

you don't really know what iteration he's going to put out there on the field.
