Welcome to part of my take presented by draft Kings. The crown is yours today is Wednesday, February 11th, and Hank is back. Back, Mr. Guys. Hank, how are you feeling? Just a little bummed out, I don't know. Super Bowl hangover, sucks. Zack did ask you on Sunday if this loss would be like a one day thing. Was it a one day thing? No. No,'s not been one day yesterday. It was bad today. It's not been much better. Okay It is Yeah Don't be mad already. I haven't even said anything also. I'd like an apology for for the other show Where you accused me of feeding Zach questions and Zach just came at you because you came at him. He told me he sounded like shit before he spoke and so Zach's like, fuck it, I'm just gonna, I'm gonna hit you with my hard question first. I will not apologize for that. What were you gonna say? I was just wondering if you consumed any media. I don't know how Patriot Span's are handling this. I saw that that bald Paul was not listening to part of my take on Monday because you know it's too fresh the loss is too fresh have you been reading articles listen to any podcasts. I listen to spend checklets. That's that's about it. Interesting. Yeah. They came to your defense. Yeah. Hands in Whitney for people who missed it came to Hank's defense and said that Pfti were Brutal to Hank and trolled him in a brutal way and were so mean and that Biz did point out nice fart and that was it. So you think we're brutal to you? I never said that. I'm asking. I'm asking me to answer for Biz and Whitscomments which I had no control over I did not talk to them beforehand. I felt yeah, I felt encouraged by what they were saying. Okay, sometimes you know, you feel like you're the only one thinking something and then you hear other people repeat that and you're like, all right, what point did I troll you? Every what at one point every day since I've met you for a 10 years. Fair counterpoint.

I when business winters are coming to hang are not so much business when business and the handler come to Hank's defense. I just I just one more time. I just try again. When we're in the and the coming to Hank's defense. I just I tune out there just like there's so unfair to Hank do a to a dolling little Henry. they do, Hank has a fucking troll shirt that he wears whenever Max loses.

And since next week him on the couch. Hank deserves all the troll. He deserves more. That's the existing thing that that was not a troll shirt. That was a coincidence. That's the truth. I just happened to wear a shirt and Max loses a lot and I have I happen to wear it on two. Sometimes that was not intentional. I did text wit in the and I said you guys are pathetic for

Being like boo who poor Hank. Hank has a, I actually would estimate 0.00001% life. I think there are, I would say the major, the vast, vast majority of Americans would trade lives with Hank. He has a great life. So he got trolled a little. A little bit, a little tiny trolling. The guy lives the perfect life. It's okay. You took a loss. Yeah, listen, I don't want to get too sentimental, but I obviously was, I spent all day, a lot of, it was a normal day of travel delays. It wasn't anything like egregious. was just it took, you know, 12 hours for what was supposed to take seven hours.

But obviously we were in San Francisco and we're in the middle of writing the book Or it's almost done, but everyone go pre-order it now. So we've been I've been reading that and I've been going through pictures and working with the editor on sending them pictures I've been going through all my photos going through the last 10 years San Francisco Super Bowl was 10 years ago right before this podcast started. So, when the Super Bowl ended, it was now this time, time of year, February, the podcast started in March, but we were obviously ramping up to start the podcast. And just thinking about how different that Super Bowl was 10 years ago versus how awesome the Super Bowl week was this week. Like, it was one of the most fun and surreal weeks of all time. It was literally too good to be true. And everything was too good to be true for us to actually win the game because everything outside of the game was beyond perfect. Yeah, you just had to be followed around by a little troll all week. Yeah, which was fine. It was fun. No more size troll strong. It was, it was, it was fun, you know, being with PFT and bring him, you know, to the, to the rally and everything. I, I have to like admit to feet like I'm exiled. I can't do it anymore. Like I feel like I've been just fighting, fighting, fighting, defense, defense, defense for the last. Feels like the better part of a month plus. like hardcore and there's just nothing I can really say or do now I don't I don't have anything else less left to give PFT and the haters they won this round like there's there's there's there's the it's over like the battle is over PFT has won well he lost he lost no no really I lost,000. No, that's my $4,000.

Not really. I lost $40,000.

And listen, I gotta say, like $40,000 is a lot of money. It is, no matter how you slice it, it's worth it for the Patriots to lose. If you would tell me that I would have to pay $40,000 for every Patriot Superbowl loss, I'd say that's a hell of a deal.

I'd shake your hand.

And that is a fair price to pay

to see the Patriots losing the Super Bowl.

You think? for every Patriot Super Bowl loss. I'd say that's a hell of a deal. I'd shake your hand.

And that is a fair price to pay to see the Patriots lose in the Super Bowl. You think this guy wasn't actually rooting for you? No, I know he wasn't. I know he wasn't. I know he wasn't. I know he wasn't. No, I mean, yeah, go ahead. I'm glad that Hank is in, you know, He's seeing things clearly right now.

He seems to be in a better mood, a smiley mood.

He's getting ready to go on vacation.

I'm happy for Hank is in, you know, he's seeing things clearly right now. He seems to be in a better mood, a smiley mood.

He's getting ready to go on vacation.

I'm happy for him that way too. It did bump me out to see you on Sunday night. Like I didn't take that much pleasure in having you like sad on the show because you did make me sad too. So we're glad that you're really smiling and that now I can be happy that you're sad. I think that was also because the zoom came in a little blurry so we couldn't really see you

Yeah, I also like I think be happy that you're sad. I think that was also because the Zoom came in a little blurry so we couldn't really see you.

Yeah, I also think the people that were like max, max was saying like, oh, I would be so much, if I, the fact that I was not in person and I knew all we were recording, like I just needed, like I was just kind of like tuning out what you guys are saying. You're just moving the chain. And I was just like once this is the conversation ends I can hang up this laptop and I'm away from them. Yeah, that was a huge part of it

Yeah, you did a good job you answered You're just moving the chain. And I was just like once this, the conversation ends, I can hang up this laptop
