Well, welcome back to the drifting on the Royal podcast. This is me, this is Lano RK67. What up, what up, what up, what up, what up, how you doing guys? Still, I still got a hangover from the daylight savings.
Lano:I'm still adjusting to it, surprisingly.
Ricky:You're getting extra hour of sleep, right.
Miggy:You need more sleep, or what?
Ricky:You're not ready for that extra hour of sleep.
Lano:The thing is the baby woke up an hour early on Sunday and we were just like, why is she up? And then we didn't realize until later. We woke up at 10, which would have been 11, right and then we're like, oh, that's why she was up, but we're just kind of sluggish the rest of the day.
Miggy:Because her little internal clock doesn't recognize daylight savings.
Lano:My first day at work is always kind of sluggish.
Ricky:Does she have a routine in the morning?
Lano:No. Normally she sleeps in, because when I go to work at 6.30, she's asleep. I'm carrying her to the car looking her up.
Ricky:She doesn't wake up, want to snack on something or a bottle, or want to watch a show or a cartoon or anything.
Lano:Well, when I'm watching her, as soon as she wakes up, I just give her some toast to eat, because normally she'll start getting grouchy if she doesn't eat. So I just give her something right away, then eat, and then I'll put on one of her shows, like a type of Sesame Street, like some puppets, then she'll watch it settle down, then she'll start walking around hanging up. But you don't want her to get up grouchy. She's grouchy, she'll stay grouchy like the whole day.
Ricky:You ever show her any of the old cartoons, any of anything that we used to watch?
Lano:Not yet, just because I don't know how to find it. Like what was that? Like Captain Caveman? Yeah, I don't even know where we're looking. Just look up anything. You too. Hannah Barbera.
Miggy:Hannah Barbera.
Ricky:yeah, that's all our childhood, right there, I mean, you told us about the damn Peacock.
Miggy:Or the Pluto TV, oh yeah forgot about the Pluto TV.
Ricky:Let's put that on. You're going to lose your sponsorship.
Lano:Yeah, that's a good idea, because the Pluto TV has stuff running all day long.
Ricky:Look up Woody Woodpecker, Tom and Jerry.
Miggy:Because it does have a lot of jet scenes.
Lano:There was a. Halloween I did see a lot of Flintstones.
Ricky:Scooby Doo.
Lano:She likes Snoopy, snoopy she says she says, she says whoopie or happy it was like Snoopy. But what about you guys? The time effect together, you guys? Oh, you guys were out of town, huh.
Miggy:Yeah, we enjoyed that. Yeah, we did that. It was rough man.
Ricky:We had the annual golf trip and the ski man out of shame.
Miggy:Courses are pretty tough dude.
Ricky:Out of shape man.
Miggy:Especially when you're out of shape.
Lano:I hit the well, just the walk seemed long, like the distance.
Miggy:I mean we had carts, but the first course, wolf Creek, had so many hills and slopes, so like when you can't be in the cart and you got to go down to the ball, it's like you're climbing up and going, you know walking down. And climbing up, walking down, you know, like enforcing everything, and you got tiring man.
Lano:So it's not the same course you went to last time.
Ricky:No, I've never played Wolf.
Miggy:Creek, but you played Falcon.
Ricky:Ridge Falcon Ridge, I did.
Lano:Yeah, well, it's the 18th, you guys did yeah both days.
Ricky:And I did pretty good. I got some clean shots for not golfing probably close to a year.
Lano:Well, I was going to say, was that the last thing? You guys played the last trip? Yeah, probably. Well, I played before that a few times.
Miggy:I think I got one round in.
Ricky:probably I got one round in before, but that was potting last year. I don't think I golfed this year.
Miggy:I was doing okay at Wolf Creek up until about hole 13, where I hit my ball into like this ridiculous ravine dude where the slope was like practically vertical and I should have just let the ball go and I got down there and get it and try to hit it out. But I did and once I got it out, climbing that vertical and everything, getting it out of there and then getting back to the card and everything it almost died, man.
Ricky:I had fatigue. The fatigue hit me around hole 13.
Miggy:It was like I was feeling really bad and shit. But once Rick told me that he was feeling tired and I'm like, okay, well, I mean I still need to get my fat ass in shape, but at least he got tired too. So I know it's really tough then. It's not just me.
Ricky:The first day, like I was all, maybe like the first night I was hitting my ball and then just to save time, I was like running to my balls and everything. But after that man the sun came out and got warm.
Lano:Yeah, sun beating down what times you guys play, like early or later.
Miggy:We had 80, 18 times 18 times.
Lano:Yeah, how much was that?
Miggy:Like that course 150 or how much Um three something for the two days yeah we paid for the two days. It was only one package, so it was like 380. Wow, so I guess like 140 each.
Lano:No, well, 380, um so like one uh one, 90 something or be one 90.
Ricky:Each course but that Wolf Creek man. I think it was rough. They started off, they started us at uh, on the 10th hole, on the 10th hole.
Lano:Now would you um, like I'm sure it's bigger than a part three, like that's an executive course, like some part five or what was it?
Miggy:Yeah, oh, the championship course. Yeah, dude, these are serious courses, man Wow.
Ricky:It's like what you wanted to go when we were Bernie Lerner. Yeah, when we were just learning.
Miggy:You want to go to journeys. It's that caliber of of a course. Although this course actually um. Wolf Creek was designed by a Jack Nicholas.
Ricky:Oh, wow so the um, eric's, um, um, I guess just his buddy, his buddy Tom and he's. That was his first time ever playing a course, a big course, dude. Who Uh? This guy, tom uh-huh. First time he took one lesson before this trip.
Lano:Like at a range or something there.
Ricky:Uh yeah, One lesson and he went out there to go play his first time at a course that he played.
Miggy:And what? What was his ethnicity Was it? Was it Norwegian or Dutch, or I think, Dutch Something like that, right Cause. I thought, sometimes he spoke at us. Sometimes I thought he was like maybe like Irish or something.
Ricky:Yeah.
Speaker 4:But, what really cool dude, man really cool dude and he's he's so awesome yeah.
Ricky:Yeah, we had so much fun. It was. It was his first time yeah, his first time golfing over there, and then his first time at the Raider game, and then we took him to a lot of like good spots.
Miggy:Yeah.
Ricky:To to eat. Took him the the first night. We had a steak. We ate at a steak house right there.
Lano:Casablanca hotel. Casablanca, that's not the place you guys call the strip, or something.
Miggy:We're in the cafe. You know the first night. Oh yeah, yeah, the cafe.
Ricky:Yeah, I had those, those fries, those, what are they? They were like Irish.
Lano:So it's Thursday night, thursday night, thursday night, yeah, you guys already drove.
Miggy:Thursday morning yeah, we left Thursday mid morning afternoon. You and Ricky together. We, we, we all, we were all able to. We went two cars.
Ricky:We got we got to Vegas and we stopped in Vegas to have a drink and they were having that damn formula one.
Lano:Oh, I just saw a YouTube video.
Ricky:Racing.
Miggy:Like it's crazy dude the way everything's all set up man.
Lano:But it is making it difficult for regulars.
Ricky:We were talking about it, and how much damn money they're spending dude. They spent on that.
Miggy:Just a setup, just for that weekend, because there's so much shit that they're going to tear down again and take out and it's nuts man. It's crazy.
Lano:It's like the last month or anything Like, so it's already like a whole month out of the year, like in communities people on the street.
Ricky:They built these temporary like a temporary building.
Lano:It's not like the Rose Parade, like bigger stuff. Times 10, dude.
Ricky:Yeah.
Miggy:No, that doesn't come close because, they're, they're, they built suites.
Ricky:It's a good building. It was like a building yeah, with suites.
Miggy:You got. You got the stands on one side of the street and then on the other side you got suites that were built like to watch the race.
Ricky:And you figure and you think it's like well, I mean, I don't even know what the exterior about. I guess some kind of sheet metal or something, I don't know, because they were. Actually they put beams as supports for the whole building and they did a bunch of these like a bunch, like a bunch of suites along the course, right, and you're just thinking like, was that there, was that built temporarily for this whole event?
Ricky:And yeah, so you think about just one, like one block of the of this building this temporary building, and that's Vegas.
Lano:Who's paying for the Vegas? I don't know.
Ricky:I was going to say it's probably, while Vegas, the city probably gives them a cut it gives them a cut, because that brings people in. Like people pay for the. They're saying one was like $5,000 for the for the weekend, for the package.
Miggy:I'll tell you this the hotels are going to make a killing dude, because right now, if you try to get a room for that weekend, don't forget it you better take out a small loan.
Ricky:So I don't know if the city probably pays for for me to wonder how that works.
Miggy:But I don't know what deal they came up with.
Ricky:But you're bringing people in for that weekend to you know, apart from aside from the, from the hotels, the restaurants, and you know you bring some so many people. But you started looking and say, say there's a block right and there's this temporary building. You got to think, okay, there's one building, how much did it cost to to just build it? Put it up temporarily Right, the, aside from the structural, the, the, the structure, and then the, the, the exterior paneling or whatever, and then everything that goes inside plumbing, electrical maybe.
Miggy:AC bat. You know all that. Cause you know they're going to have a bar. They're going to they got to have bathrooms and you know they're going to have like a kitchen, you know, for people to be able to eat and stuff, you know so.
Ricky:So we're like no way, man, and that's like I don't know how many of these things they built, aside from all the the framing, like those railings that they use for the lights, and all that the grandstands, you know the whole, the whole, the whole setup around the, the course it's like, man, how much damn money is spent here.
Miggy:I'm tired of you try to try to look up those suites and see what they're going for and each one I guarantee you is like was it Tom that looked? It up. I think Tom was looking it up.
Ricky:It wasn't it like 30, like how much.
Miggy:It was like 30 grand right For the seat, for like one one day.
Ricky:Yeah. No but but what did they? What did they make? Last year Was it like $37 billion.
Miggy:Oh something, some stupid number.
Ricky:Like $37 billion. Yeah, formula, one Formula one.
Miggy:That's what they made last year. A lot of money in that that damn business, dude.
Ricky:If it takes? They're saying like if it takes, what damn? 150 million. Yeah 100, whatever Dropping the bucket 150 million to do that whole setup all the way around, like that's nothing compared to damn 37 billion. Hold on, let me look it up, cause I don't want to.
Lano:This guy, Jacob, on YouTube. He always pops up on my feed Like he does little like Vegas updates every week. And then he had one white formula ones, the biggest mistake Vegas made cause it's like tearing up like, like the strip, it's all like under construction.
Miggy:I think I know who you were talking about.
Lano:I have it on the screen but it's all over like it's under construction and stuff. So they said it's just like not a good time to visit Like oh yeah, there you go.
Miggy:Yeah, I see some of his stuff.
Lano:Was it like blocking the road and stuff, like you were guys like unable to get to places, or like you have to go around?
Miggy:Just cause a lot of traffic. Traffic Cause there like lane restrictions, you know. So lanes are being cut, they're being cut off and you know a lot of bottlenecking, so you got to kind of like it's traffic. Do you know what I mean?
Miggy:When we first got there, we were going to have a drink, like Roger was following me and I got off the freeway and we were on the phones, you know, and he keeps on telling me he's like don't go to Vegas. You know, don't go to Vegas Boulevard. You know, cause Vegas Boulevard is a mess. Right, I told him, dude, I still got to cross it. Right, I'm going to try to cross it and get on the other side, on the back streets, you know, to get to where we want to get to. And even though I messed up, cause the place where I want to go have a drink, the Alice Island Casino, that's part of the racetrack or part of the race. You know it's where the race is going to pass through.
Lano:Yeah, I told them that's like a little secret in Vegas on that Alice Island.
Miggy:Yeah, so, so we were driving down that cobalt, you know, which is going to be part of the track, and that thing was really backed up, you know, because of all the construction and everything, and they had a direct traffic and, you know, lanes taken away, okay, so so I was way exaggerated.
Ricky:They're saying that's 500 million. Well, this little short for the facilities and generated the generated Formula. One generated $2.57 billion.
Miggy:Still a lot of debt. Yeah. I was saying 37.
Ricky:But no, it was. I was a little bit way over exaggerate. But $2.57 billion, yeah, no crazy. I haven't been in Vegas in years.
Lano:So like these temporary facilities, like they're just in park, like parking lots or like, they got a wide open.
Miggy:They're just like wide open lots.
Lano:Wide open lots Before hand, but now they're just like.
Ricky:Like on the back, the back street, off the strip. Yeah, it's probably the part you got to the hotels right. So like the open-.
Miggy:Because there's been like a lot of empty lots that they haven't done nothing with.
Lano:Yeah.
Miggy:So that's what they're using to set up stands and everything.
Ricky:Yeah, I don't know. It was just crazy seeing all that stuff that's built.
Miggy:Yeah, seeing like all the For that one weekend.
Ricky:Is it next weekend? No, it was the weekend when we were there.
Lano:Oh, the race was that weekend oh no, no, it wasn't.
Miggy:It's the weekend of the 15, 16, I think.
Lano:So I mean they're still like two weeks away or so, right yeah, and we were saying.
Ricky:We're saying they had to have, like, have two setups because, as this was getting set up and almost ready, then they're gonna break down the one where they're at before and start taking all that set up to the next city. Yeah, oh, you know the whole. You know the whole-.
Lano:Do you, I mean you guys do you guys follow Formula One?
Miggy:No no.
Lano:You guys? There's a Netflix show Drive to Survive. You guys ever seen it?
Miggy:No no.
Lano:It's like hard knocks, but of like Formula One, it comes out every season. Like when the season finishes, that show comes on and it's like 10 episodes and it's like the 10 weeks of Formula One. But it's pretty interesting. Like every time it comes out I watch it. But since that Netflix show came out, like I don't wanna say like it blew it up, but like that's how, like I started paying attention to Formula One and it got like a real like worldwide. I mean, I'm sure they're doing well already before Netflix, but like now a lot of people watch it just because of that show.
Ricky:Oh yeah.
Lano:So like I wanna see like the Vegas episode and all that stuff, but last year they did the Miami when they did it around the stadium. Mm-hmm. But no, I mean if you're, if you think about watch that show and then like it'll get you into it. I think Formula One, how like crazy, all the drivers, the politics, the captains and all that stuff like running the crew. Crazy money, crew pit stops and all that stuff, but it's a good show.
Ricky:That was crazy.
Lano:So you guys winning two cars? Yeah, yeah, no one flew.
Ricky:They rented a. No, they rented a Suburban and they took his truck.
Lano:Oh, your truck.
Ricky:Yeah.
Lano:Cause I would say, like, how do you carry all the golf bags? You just throw them all in the back of the truck.
Ricky:Yeah, some of the stuff was in the Suburban too that they rented.
Lano:And this is six people, eight people, how many people?
Miggy:Eight. There's eight of us, so we split up four and four.
Ricky:Four and four.
Lano:So I haven't been in Vegas in a while. So on the way to Vegas, what are you like? Is you guys stopping the road to get some munchies, or eat, or eat this way to get to Vegas.
Ricky:We stopped, no, we went all the way through. We stopped at a rest.
Miggy:stop those about it To relieve ourselves, no cause.
Lano:I like. I mean, when I think of road trips, I like the places to eat, like I get excited about that, yeah, but now on the way to Vegas.
Miggy:They're really shit.
Lano:Let's stop at Bar Store or Baker Well didn't you guys say those like a Del Taco or something In Bar Store? Yeah, in Bar Store Is that the first one, or did they make the Del Tacos Like what?
Miggy:are the original ones, the Del Taco. It's like the real original Del.
Ricky:Taco. The water makes the beating cheese burritos delicious. But all these years going to Vegas, I wanna I have yet. Well, I mean, it's just outside of Bar Store though, so it's not too far, but I wanna stop at that Peggy Seuss. I wanna try out that diner man, and every time we say we're gonna stop, we never stop. Where is it.
Miggy:Yeah, we stopped there. I thought we stopped there one time when my dad no. No. I don't know One time when I was driving up there by myself to meet up with everybody, I stopped there.
Ricky:Was it good?
Miggy:It was pretty good, so their shakes are pretty good.
Ricky:I'm gonna take a bike ride over there.
Miggy:And then I think my dad too. I think one time when we went.
Ricky:I guess one of you were with us. No, I've never eaten there. I've always wanted to try there.
Miggy:Yeah, I think I took my dad there too.
Ricky:Yeah, Peggy Seuss, I mean I would imagine they would have like a bomb, damn Shake or Shake Bomb.
Lano:I don't think I've ever seen it, but now I kinda wanna stop by and check it out.
Ricky:Yeah, I mean, and it's not, it's just right after Barstow, but what like maybe 20 minutes after?
Miggy:Barstow, right past Calico yeah.
Lano:This is Yermol.
Miggy:Yermol there we go, yermol.

Lano:Well, I mean, this is not Vegas, but we're talking a little road trip. So we go to Palm Springs maybe once or twice a year. We never had that date shake until last time we had it and I really, really liked it. You guys ever had that date shake From?
Miggy:where, from where Manio got a date shake.
Lano:But it was at Shields, not the one that Hadley's Hadley's is at the casino or the one before the casino at Cabo's Un.
Miggy:Yeah, there's a.

Miggy:Yeah, I forgot where he said he had one. But he got a date shake and he said that shit was so good.
Lano:Yeah, it was really good and like you suck it or it brings different flavors, Like.
Ricky:Where'd you get it?
Lano:At Shields. It's like some date farm in Indio or something Shields, shields. I mean like you see it like it has a big like sign and stuff and they always show it like on places when you go to a pump springs or something. Yeah, I wish.
Miggy:I remember which. What was that place that Manio said, Because he's always going to Mexicali Coachella and all that and he always passes it. And one of those spots. You know all the date farms that are out there. He even brought some back sometime one time. Damn dates are pretty damn good.
Lano:Yeah, this place right here at Shields. So like I was like we went because like we had at Ellie, so I was like, oh, this is take her, like you know the Shields, and like get a date shake for her. But like, dude, I really liked it. Now like I'm going to make it a stop every time we go.
Ricky:I've never seen that Shields.
Lano:It's in Indio, but it's like cause. We were like looking up lists on YouTube and then it popped up on every single one. I was like let's just try this place and we'll take Ellie and get a. The date shaking is like dude. It was really good. So no, so go back to Vegas.
Ricky:Yeah, so that was the first day there. We stopped for a drink. We saw all that crazy stuff for the Formula One setup. Had a drink at Ellis Island.
Miggy:Ellis Island.
Ricky:And then after.
Miggy:Headed out to Mesquite.
Ricky:We headed to Mesquite. We got there.
Miggy:Checked in, everybody got situated in their rooms and everything and just hit the casino floor to watch the rest of that piece of crap game.
Lano:So Mesquite's Nevada.
Miggy:Yeah.
Lano:Cause I remember last time you guys went to Utah too, no, or?
Miggy:no, I mean it's right there, dude.
Lano:I mean.
Miggy:Utah's like, maybe like 30 minutes away. Okay. So it borders. You actually cross a little piece of Arizona and then into Utah, so you're actually in like three different states.
Lano:You didn't eat at that place, where I forgot what episode where the lady started like having an emergency cardiac arrest.
Miggy:No, no, no, no no.
Ricky:That was the other hotel. Yeah, that was another hotel.
Miggy:Yeah, no, we didn't want to do it. It was a cafe. We pretty much just stayed at our hotel and that was it.
Ricky:It was a cafe that we first ate at. I just got fries. Oh, it was pulled pork Pulled pork fries.
Miggy:That's what a pulled pork fries.
Ricky:Oh, kansas City fries, kansas City fries and had pulled pork on it and I couldn't finish it and I almost took it back. I almost took it back to the room and I was like, oh man, I go it's a bad move because it was like a sloppy mess. So I was like, man, if I take this back to the room, I know I'm going to eat it for sure and it might go south. Even though I'm always talking about building up your gut, I go. I didn't really want to mess up my jinx and mess up my stomach for the weekend, so I was like I just left it.
Lano:Yeah, I'm careful of that too.
Ricky:But we ate there right and then, so that next day got up we went to go play around the Wolf Creek. And then that was rough, Whether we were all excited. We're going to go take a dip or the pool, maybe in the Jacuzzi.
Miggy:It was close for the season.
Ricky:Close, close for the season. Dude, I was like all right, well, we just chilled in the room.
Lano:Fall or winter is close, the pool yeah.
Ricky:So I was Friday and then they had a reserved the steakhouse. You know what I was impressed with that steakhouse man.
Miggy:It was really good.
Lano:I got the rib bite. You were impressed or were not impressed. I was impressed.
Ricky:I got the rib bite. I didn't get no sides. I got that, really that damn Caesar salad. Oh yeah, that Caesar salad was fun man.
Miggy:Catherine's.
Ricky:Catherine's steakhouse.
Miggy:In the Castle Block Hotel.
Ricky:That Mickey got you split a Caesar salad, so we got that and I didn't even get no sides because I didn't want. I was already kind of full because I think, oh, at the golf course I had a hot dog.
Miggy:We had a hot dog and the pizza when we got back.
Ricky:We tried the pizza at Alasaila no.
Miggy:No, right there.
Ricky:Right there, right, oh yeah, when we got back. So then we had dinner after that. That rib bite was bomb.
Lano:You had like a potato, or you didn't get anything. No, I didn't get nothing.
Ricky:It had those onions straws yeah onions straws.
Lano:That's where I hear like that, but man yeah, I couldn't even finish that damn thing.
Ricky:I couldn't finish that steak, but that I did not leave behind. I took that back to the room so I had sliced it up. I go, I'm going to eat this. In the morning I sliced it up in pieces. That was easy for me to just to pick at it and then after they bring you, like these warm towels- oh yeah, I love it when the restaurants do that they really like clean your hands, yeah.
Miggy:Look up on right on the chart on that website. Look up the Chapino. That's what I had, yeah.
Ricky:On the menu yeah, that was a good soup, dan. Yeah, that damn rib. I was good. I really enjoyed the little you know it was a nice little touch giving chocolate mints.
Miggy:Yeah, and the only reason I didn't go steak is because Thursday when we got there I had a chicken fried steak. Oh yeah. And then I knew we were going to go to a steakhouse in Vegas. So I'm like OK, it's like well, maybe I'll look for something of seafood here in Capri, and I was hoping they would have like a nice, like a sea bass or yeah or a branzino or something you know, but they didn't.
Miggy:And so once I saw that chapino, I'm like, OK, let me get the chapino, because I'm not going to have a steak. We're going to have a steak in Vegas. And then afterwards, dude, it's like all the plans get changed around and everything. You know where we end up. Lonno, Capos, Capos. Capos.
Miggy:I was so pissed dude, I'm like dude it's like well no, I mean the thing is because I wanted like a really good steakhouse steak and I was mad because I should have gotten it at Catherine's then because all your guys at steak looked amazing, yeah, and I was like man, I got that chapino with what's really good, but you know I wanted a steak. But then I started thinking like no, well, Capos has a steak.
Lano:Is this it right here, this this picture, or no?
Miggy:Yeah, yeah, that's it.
Lano:How they compared it Um the hobos.
Miggy:I mean this one's got a whole hell of a lot more stuff. The lobster, it's the hotel. Oh, so they put the hotel in there. And ton of calamari they do. A ton of muscles, ton of clams. Yeah, it was just so good, dude.

Miggy:Yeah, but then, yeah then um, so Saturday we get up, Saturday, play that round. Another crappy round.
Ricky:Yeah, that that round was was tough because man my, my back from the day before man but I had a pain in my back, Like it was just above, like like the butt, cheeks, the lower back and and my groin, where I it was stiff man, I couldn't, I could, I could, I was walking. I was walking pretty ginger, ginger.
Miggy:I messed up my knee on all that up and down, cause walking down hills my knees are always gets sold. They hurt so much on down slopes. That's why I'm always having to go so slow when I'm going downstairs or going down a slope.
Ricky:My back didn't loosen up to probably like the 11th hole and then by then I was like I was already fatigued with my swing. I didn't get it back to like to like, um, I think, the 16th hole. But yeah, that was that was tough.
Miggy:I think I was on one hole, was I on like maybe number 10, 10 or 11. Rick was like yeah, you're sweet God, dude. I'm like I got nothing, dude, I got nothing, left it was like as hard as I tried, man I was like gone, gone yeah.
Lano:Good when you're talking about your, your, your pain. Um, for my wife's birthday, for Halloween, I bought her this um, this chirp RPM.
Ricky:RPM roller.
Lano:Dude, it's incredible, this thing. Um, it's like a massage roller, but it like it spins. So you put it in the little wreck and then it like spins around right here and you can put it on the ground, your feet, but like it's, it bruises, like your muscles up, like it. It really like, um, like you feel sore after, but like you feel a lot better, like we'll get out all the nuts. So when you're saying like you're, you're, you're dying, all that stuff. Yeah. Like this thing, really like gets in there.
Miggy:A little warming man.
Ricky:Wait is it?
Lano:motorized. Yeah, it's motorized, like you charge it and then it spins, but it like it stretches out your whole. It's pretty damn amazing, oh man, oh it's that it's pretty big yeah. That's pretty big.
Miggy:That was real good, oh man.
Ricky:Increased blood flow.
Lano:It's all the trigger points, like at first it was a little too intense for me but now I'm getting used to it. But it's pretty amazing.
Miggy:Well, Christmas is coming up. If you want to keep your talent happy, I wouldn't exactly turn it down.
Lano:No, but that thing, dude, I mean for your sore legs and stuff after, after that, like what you said, whatever tighten up that thing will stretch it out. I'll surprise how did it work, but all right. Sorry, I just had to jump in and say it because I just remembered it.

Lano:But, um, we think the baby's going to come out, um, maybe a couple of weeks early, because she's already having the pains and stuff. And she looks big and then they say it's like the baby's dropped or lower.
Miggy:The baby wants her own bowl of uh soap and mariscos.
Lano:And she was doing this and then the baby started kicking. I was like, oh, I had to take it away. I was like you're going to, I'm going to let you use this after the baby's born. I don't have the baby shaking and stuff Like yeah, so. I just the.
Ricky:So we played that round the golf and then we ate at. That was around the golf and then we ate as a cat we went, we went back to um well, no, that was Friday.

Lano:Okay.
Miggy:And so those dudes, you know, they, they, I guess they're all full of piss and vinegar man, cause they had so much energy or whatever. So I guess they all got ready, showered and went down to the casino and started playing this shit.
Lano:Are they younger than you guys or older?
Miggy:No, we're all about the same age, same age and for whatever reason, they were all pumped up and ready to go, and I mean Rick got to our room, dude, and even even that man is like cause I did the mobile checking on my phone and like it asked me if I wanted to upgrade the room, and like I did, for like two bucks more. The room was actually really, really nice.
Lano:Well, I mean, what do they give you for two bucks more?
Miggy:For two bucks more. They gave us the freaking like the back secret rooms where it's like super secret elevator and shit. You got to walk like 10 miles to get to it and, man, it was like it took us so long to figure out where to get to it.
Lano:Oh, so it was like a like a secluded room, or that was the upgrade or what.
Miggy:Pretty much, if you remember the Luxor, they, you know they got those elevators and like right sideways or whatever, right. Well, they put us in what's called the towers.
Lano:Right, that's like.
Miggy:so those just, I guess, started like on the outer skirts of the pyramid and they go up and down. So yeah, but the room was super nice, dude really nice. And yeah, once we got up there, dude, we just, we just passed out, yeah, we just fell on his bed. I knocked out on my bed and next thing you know, wake up.
Miggy:It's like seven o'clock and shit. And when he laid for the, for the reservations at Capels the reservations were at 830 and the tower, the tower gate, the shower, was like, yeah, they better hurry up. The tower is going to go like this. I go smelling like an animal, I don't care.
Ricky:We got there about 10 minutes late to the reservations from Capels.
Miggy:Yeah, so tell me Capels again that password, things like made up, or they gave me a password on you, just no, no, no, you, just you can play along with it oh, okay.
Lano:I thought it was like a password to give me a reservation.
Speaker 4:Say something no, no, no, you, just, you just have fun with it. We just go along with it Okay, yeah, yeah.
Ricky:Cause when we they were already in their city, they went in. So when me and Meg got there, what did you tell them? You go, yeah, we're here to see Roger, or something like that.
Miggy:No, you, you first told them they were they're here to see Roger and the guy's like. He's like, yeah, that guy holds me money yeah. I thought, yeah, he went, a bunch of other clowns. He already got back there and sitting, sitting, so and he was popping man.
Ricky:Yeah, when he got in there, it was it, it's a whole it's. It's just badass man.
Miggy:It's a vibe dude.
Ricky:It's a whole vibe.
Miggy:It's an experience. And then the food dude. The food is just next level man.
Ricky:I told these guys that when every time I eat there, I feel like the, the fat, the fat man from the monsters the movie monsters. You remember that movie?
Lano:Yeah.
Ricky:The guy that's always eating the fat man. That's how I felt man, cause he just had.
Lano:Everything was so good.
Ricky:They ordered the the meatballs, the the meatballs as the appetizer he's always bomb, you get the damn bread the bread, scoop up the damn marinara sauce, and then I I I got the Fettuccine Alfredo with a, with a meatball man. That thing was so damn good, bro.
Miggy:And then I ended up getting the rib bite there. Oh, dude, you talk about a good piece of meat man. Yeah, this shit was so good, dude. They serve it with a garlic butter sauce. Oh man, it was so tender, so fall apart, dude. And then I added the shrimp scampi to it. Yeah, it was. It was amazing.
Ricky:Yeah, yeah, capos is just that's a must if you guys go.
Miggy:You guys like nice, nice glass of red wine.
Lano:You're going to go to Vegas. You've had everything there, like the pizza and everything I know.
Miggy:I've had the meatballs.
Lano:The meatballs, I think.
Miggy:I've had the raviolis. I've had the lasagna. The lasagna is good.
Ricky:The lasagna is really fucking good. Yeah, If you ever go on, make sure you you do the reservations before you get over there.
Miggy:Before I get to Vegas Hopefully your hotel room has a fridge or something, because I'm guarantee you're going to take stuff home or you're going to take stuff back to the room, but if you can put it in the fridge and maybe like take a cooler or something, so that way the thing will make it home.
Lano:What is this right here in the bedroom, that way you can reheat it? That looks good. It looks like, well, it's not mac and cheese, but something, some pasta.
Ricky:I don't know. That's the lasagna right there. Oh man, where's you?
Lano:What's going on?
Miggy:Yeah, but we get there, man. We start off the evening with, or start off the meal with, a bunch of old fashions. Here we got old fashions all the way around. Then appetizers get there and dig into those meatballs. Oh man, those meatballs are amazing. Doing the sauce.
Ricky:I think I would have to eat there maybe twice a month if I lived in Vegas. I would have to like ritual.
Lano:Now that I'm looking at it, there's a lot of YouTube videos I might have to check out.
Miggy:How's that cheesy bread dude? Because I didn't get a piece of it. I think it was delicious.
Ricky:You put. You get that cheesy bread with some of that marinara sauce on there.
Miggy:I didn't get it either, oh man.
Ricky:Rob's got luck. I was about to damn slap him in the face.
Lano:This is Friday night or Saturday night? Now Saturday night.
Ricky:That was Saturday night when we walked in. When we walked into the Luxor, you saw the Titanic display. Huh.
Lano:Yeah, oh, I forgot yeah.
Ricky:It's at the Luxor. That's where we went, you saw, me. You checked it out.
Miggy:Well, I mean, just saw where it was bad. You just saw it from the outside. We didn't go in there.
Ricky:Did I tell you guys about the? I've told you guys about that whole coincidence with the Titanic and the and the Titan.
Lano:Titan.
Ricky:Yeah.
Lano:Was that the sister ship?
Ricky:boat or sister ship that um I know there was like three ships, so they were building like two of them or something like that right, but Titanic was done first.
Miggy:Oh, no, no, no. And that Titanic was going to be after something, or no, this was um.
Lano:They all kind of sound like Titanic, but it was something like different letters in the front or something.
Ricky:No, like a spooky coincidence.
Lano:No.
Ricky:I don't think he told us oh alright, this is. This is crazy, dude.
Lano:Let me look up the this he learned from the museum, or this is no, I heard, I heard, okay, morgan Morgan Robertson.
Ricky:Was it Morgan Robertson? No, okay, so remember the whole submersible when that thing came Right right.
Lano:What was it about?
Ricky:right that uh.
Lano:The submarine that exploded um those trying to visit the Titanic.
Ricky:Yeah it's. Morgan Robertson. He was an author back then, 1898, 1898. He wrote a novel. The novel is called the wreck of the Titan. The wreck of a Titan, wait, wait, wait was that submersible called the Titan.
Lano:Yeah, check this out.
Ricky:So this author, morgan Robertson, he wrote this novel. He pretty much predicted the sinking of the damn Titanic because he wrote this novel 20 years before it sunk.
Ricky:Before it sunk. So in his novel it's like it's crazy how everything is so similar to the damn Titanic and he wrote this novel 20 years before the Titanic. Same same size ship, same, almost same amount of people like the lifeboats where it was like the biggest ship that was going to be going at the time. All this pretty much like around the same time frame, the day that the time it also hit an iceberg in his novel and it sunk. It was like trippy the whole. How coincidence it was.
Ricky:They were like kind of like saying like when that happens? That time they were saying like this guy was like some kind of prophet or something right, because he's wrote. He wrote a couple of novels where he predicted that that in his novel it was like the same thing happened with the Tannock and also I think I was like he wrote a novel that I also like predicted like the Pearl Harbor hmm, so you look at that, right.
Ricky:So, and and the ship in his novel was called the Titan and and the Titanic was a Titanic, right, okay, well, this all came up when. That's a merciful mm-hmm you know imploded or whatever right which one of one of the guys I was originally just helping design this whole thing, where he got kind of booted up because he was questioning all the safety right, and he's the one that actually told the story like the coincidence. How scary the coincidence, coincidences, yeah between the two ships the novel and what happened to the Titanic.
Ricky:And then he got it like kind of birefusur was like how crazy it is that this, this, this thing they named it the Titan, which was the name of the ship in the in the novel and this submersible is gonna go voyage down to Titanic.
Ricky:You're like crazy right, yeah he's like and he was like when he brought, when he was talking about, I was like oh man, like that's nuts, it's like cuz. I even look back at the there's like. If you look up the article, you'll see oh, the Titan and the Titan and the Titanic Titanic novel or Titanic comparison, whatever it breaks down how crazy the events are with everything. I was like that's crazy. And then, come you know, this year there's a submersible called the Titan gonna go to invest, you know take trips down to the Titanic is like dude, that was crazy, like it was kind of trippy, because I guess that guy also has another novel that um that kind of like.
Ricky:The event lines up with the Pearl Harbor bombing too oh really, yeah, well um pretty interesting.
Lano:Ralph told me, like those guys, like those prophets and stuff that um other aliens, their aliens.
Ricky:That's what he said are you speaking that way? We?
Miggy:we talked about that last time.
Lano:I said that all the Simpsons writers were probably aliens then he says that the aliens know how to go through time and stuff.
Ricky:I'm gonna, I'm working on.
Lano:I'm gonna say we get a mom, we could talk about all that stuff. But he says like I'm not sure diamonds and then and a lot of stuff.
Ricky:They say it's like look up, look up the. The Titan Titan comparison. Titan comparison to is that Titanic? Because you can't probably read like the quick little, the quick little description on it I was, I don't know, I was kind of wrong way like with. I mean all this stuff was going on. What does it say?
Lano:both have been done unsinkable, while the former sink yeah, see, they also said that it was unseekable other on three hours after hitting the ice for the Titanic. Yeah, this is the book you're talking about. The book predicted it where's that fruit?
Ricky:what is it? The utility, the time?
Lano:utility of 300 passenger, which only 13 made it off the ship alive the book that predicted Titanic, that disaster, a fictional ship called the. Titan.
Ricky:Titan. It's like it's a cool little quick, quick read there for no, that's crazy, and then I mean for people that are into like all right there, like it says Titanic versus Titan, titan versus Titanic was a little video, yeah, so yeah because it came up cuz Shalby Vanessa yeah oh, she's, she's really into the, the Titanic and and even that like the measurements of all that.
Ricky:It was like the same same measurements, same size, everything like a smaller scale right yeah, so like I wonder, like, maybe, like whoever, whoever created the Titanic, maybe, you know, read the novel and I, oh, I mean, you know we're gonna make a ship, that trying to make it a reality, but you know, mm-hmm well not have the same result?
Lano:but that's crazy. I didn't know about all this stuff.
Ricky:I'm so. I mean now I was gonna say they probably should have had that little bit of that in the in the exhibit exhibit.
Lano:But well, they're probably not gonna add to it, or right? Because now there's gonna be voyages to see this the Titan shipwreck and then the Titanic shipwreck is just.
Ricky:I wonder if that dude that I forgot his name. What's I do with the submersible, the dummy? That because like to name that submersible the Titan, like he just like he just get it from Titanic, titanic and all my name, this submersible Titan, I mean, and dating back to that ship it's.
Miggy:I mean, if he didn't if he knew, if he did and use a whole background in there no backgrounds, that's pretty, damn arrogant. Right to leave it. That that's pretty. I mean I want to say ballsy dude, that's just like.
Ricky:I mean the Titan looking the bear, yeah. I think even even in the novel. Just see, look it, even the way it damn went down, look it, it split in the middle yeah even in the novel oh see the novel the novel shows yeah, this is before the ship getting broken in half and then sinking the way the Titanic did. Like how, the how? How does anyone explain that like aliens other than other than the guy being a prophet?
Ricky:giving aliens it sank it in the novel. I could explain a lot of the Titanic sank the same exact way that the novel wrote it like it hit an iceberg.
Miggy:It hit an iceberg and sank the same way crazy yeah, that picture.
Lano:That's the way I mean, that's the way it went down, so it went down yeah well like in the movie oh, a little off topic right now.
Miggy:They just just popped into my head getting back to the golf trip, first night long. Oh that we were there. Mm-hmm, I'm wearing my lucky drifted-on-the-royal jackpot shirt.

Miggy:excitement for the Raiders is back.
Lano:If you guys all heard the show last week, we were like yeah bashing them. We're disappointed, so disappointed and we're not looking for huge huge event the day after the recording. The day after the recording.
Miggy:We actually know it was the night of oh yeah, no, we record on Monday then all day Halloween, halloween, yeah yeah, next day and it just completely we're like no way that that was like the first good sign, but we're gonna have a good trip. Yeah, I got a Yahoo alert and I couldn't believe it. What time was? It must be like eight o'clock, eight or nine o'clock cuz.
Lano:I think I found out about a nine o'clock, but I was. I thought you guys would be like old news, like you guys were on it.
Miggy:We were, I didn't say nothing, no cuz. Then first, first someone put it on the thread and I didn't believe it. But then I got the, I got the Yahoo alert and then I jumped online and I started um, I started, I jumped on YouTube and looked up a Wi-Fi Willie and he was, he was a yeah, he had something posted already.
Miggy:He was live. Oh, he was on live and um, yeah, he was talking about it. I'm like, wow, dude, I'm like it happened, yeah. So I mean, I don't know, you want to talk about it now. You want to buy next show.
Miggy:I say we talked about it now okay the radio game well that in the news what happened oh well, last week we were bashing and this week, yeah, the reason we were bashing the raiders and we're so down on the raiders and have been down on the raiders for the past year and a half. It's because of the horrific hiring of dumb shit Josh McDaniels, freaking coach that we just absolutely despise. Yeah, they ruined the team and pretty much try to dismantle it and damn got near destroying it yep you know. So his stupid ass was fired and that just turned around.
Miggy:Where that completely our outlook on the trip yeah because at first we were dreading going to this game, but now we were going in it full blast full energy and man yeah.
Ricky:I. I said once that happened I didn't. I didn't care if they lost every game the rest of the way, just as long as that dude was gone, I was happy yep, and it man.
Miggy:It made the game so enjoyable, dude yeah you would not believe. And just other raider fans were there also, dude, just they, just everybody was just so on board, you know, just so happy and you know was that full house?
Ricky:yeah, but you know what I who said it? I think I don't know if it roger said. I think roger said it.
Miggy:There was a lot, it was probably 50-50 yeah, giant fan, a lot of giant fans there, dude but I it's because I think they were expecting the goal.
Ricky:Yeah, they, I mean lost, they sold their tickets so I think, this coming, this coming Sunday night, I think well it's gonna be a lot more raider fans yeah.
Miggy:I'll be a lot more raider fans, because this is not gonna say that's a thing do a lot of the giant fans over there because we were surrounded by them.
Miggy:You're like here and there like they were sitting in front of us or sitting next to us you can really see black jerseys like you see a lot more blue and around the stadium you could tell by how they reacted to the, the way they're being, the way that the game was fun folding, that they were completely shocked because they thought they were just gonna come in and pick up their W and you know, roll us and roll out but we didn't have.
Miggy:We didn't have heart, we didn't have an identity, you know, yeah and we just, you know, the raiders just went in there and just punched them right in the mouth, you know, and the thing is before and all the haters are gonna say it's like oh, we, pretty giant, the Giants suck that, we're losing record, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, I'm like, okay, yeah, it's like, but how did we beat them? We didn't beat them seven or three.
Ricky:Yeah, you know, we, the raiders, kicked their ass 30 to six, which, which you would expect, dominated the whole game you would expect, if a team is really good or yeah, that you would expect them to do that to a shady team and then the other, the other team twos.
Miggy:In the whole season, mcdaniels hasn't been able to put up more than what. 24 points in one game no, you never broke 20 or he never broke 20.
Ricky:He never broke 20.
Miggy:I think the most was like 17 points there you go the big mastermind that's already like in eight games and genius Josh, you know mr and 30 points, 30 points yeah yeah, 30 points, just all offense and then how did? How did they do it? They ran the shit out of the ball. They ran the shit out of the ball. They threw underneath when they needed to and they threw deep when the opportunity was there yeah, it was a great it was a play calling.
Ricky:Was the cornerbacks coach got promoted to offensive coordinator.
Miggy:And. I believe, yeah, I remember his name.
Lano:Oh, he's not like like he got his break to office that was his first time play calling man.
Ricky:Yeah, well-known. Okay, his first time play calling and he called a beautiful game man. I didn't really like they went a little bit conservative at the end. Yeah.
Miggy:I wish they would have even defense and everything, but I mean I wish they would have. Just you know yeah, I kept their foot on the throttle and keep kicking ass, but all in all, great game. Yep, great damn game so it just made for a hell of a weekend you hell of a weekend that we had.
Lano:I like that. He's not like. This is Pierce. What's the name? Antonio Pierce.
Lano:Antonio Pierce that he's interim, but he's not like playing like an interim, like he's making decisions, like he's right away. He said, um, the rookie is the quarterback, right? Yeah, like he wasn't afraid of like pull the other guy and, like you know, even though, like he's our starter, paying all the money, like this is our quarterback and this is what we're going with. Like so he's making decisions, is not, like you know, just being safe or no, trying to keep a job.
Ricky:I don't know, I just I was times guys. I just have a really good feeling with Pierce there getting these guys up to play because the team is talented. Man, they're talented.
Ricky:I just, I just hope that Mark Davis is smart enough to not blow this up yeah and just let it develop and I'm glad that people bring back the whole like two years ago with Basachi yeah that they everyone realizes that he blew. He blew it not giving them a chance to to be the head coach from what he did that year with everybody that, everybody that wanted to listen to me.
Miggy:Dude, I said last year's team. I gave him a three-year window to win the Super Bowl, having the Vante Adams with us. I expected last year for us to go deep into the playoffs and make noise. I expected us to figure all that out this year, make the Super Bowl and women and then possibly make another run next year. But what I didn't anticipate was Mark Davis bringing in this idiot that just blew it all up.
Lano:Yeah now that that guy the last intern wasn't, was naming him Bruce Satzji was a. Versace. Um, that was later in the season, right, or? How many games did he have? Half a season half a season, yeah same what it is now, I think just because they have an extra game.
Ricky:Yeah now but I mean it's, it's a, it's a good move, because the the season when you know the record was still so you know, yeah, I mean even, even if we don't make the playoffs, if he can get us just within yeah, within just the gives in the conversation of in the hunt just mathematically, yeah, you know if he can just keep us there then it's a successful season.
Miggy:Yeah, you know, and it's more than enough.
Ricky:I was dreading he's like I thought we're gonna be in misery in these next two, three years. I thought I was just gonna keep going down and down and down because Davis gave, davis surrendered. I think it was like 80 million dollars between him, ziggler and I heard something they're gonna have to eat, like 75 million or so yeah pay them.
Ricky:And that dumb, stupid, dumb, boz Sisyllianos, yeah, yeah, wait, was it him who's that the office coordinator or chef or not? Reporters no, no, someone said that oh, was it. Maybe we're chiseling that mark Davis, maybe Calhoun, but that Davis is paying. Mr Vassay no, he's paying more coaches not to coach than he is paying coaches to coach yeah, oh, that's crazy.
Lano:Yeah, they're on the payroll still yeah, he's paying him. You know that cash now, before the show, mickey told me the story that I didn't hear on the major networks of like why he got fired oh yeah but I think you should tell that story cuz I didn't hear about until you told me about it, like I didn't hear on the ESPN or Fox or nothing well, I mean, you didn't hear it on there, cuz these guys are all on.
Ricky:Sunday came out cuz cuz the Crosby right.
Miggy:No, no, no, no, just just cuz of firing, or the do from Fox, the little short ball dude oh yeah, laser laser. Yeah, he told the story.
Ricky:He's on the broken yeah yeah, it was a whole team meeting that they're.
Miggy:You know everything out this was apparently the team meeting before the the Lions game. The money man, yeah, and apparently from what I heard, also like for Wi-Fi Willie, that McDaniels knew he wasn't tell that story. He was gonna get fired after the Lions game, because I think he even said something about watch what happened during the game and like he didn't make a big deal he was a shell of himself.
Ricky:Yeah, it was just like out there, like that he was calling please, right, or?
Miggy:yeah, he didn't like care, or yeah you know, he was just like going through the motions oh, like when a loose you didn't get fired yeah, because of that, because of that incident yeah and so what happened is the interim head coach that we have right now, antonio Pierce. He's a born and raised in Compton, so he's already raised in Compton you know he's like. He's like us.
Miggy:You know we grew up Raider fans yeah and so he played for for the New York Giants when, like the Eli Manning era, when there were Super Bowl champs and the one year when the Patriots were undefeated and they seemed like unstoppable, and just then probably will happen that, when the Giants beat them, you know he brought that up in a team meeting, you know, before the the Lions game, saying you know, telling them that you know to not let reporters or outside whatever bring you down. You know, because the only ones that can believe that you can be the team is your. You know yourselves. You have to believe yourselves. And he told that story about yeah being on the New York Giants.
Miggy:You know, and nobody gave them a chance, you know, and there were such heavy underdogs or whatever, but they knew in their hearts they could beat, they could take down the Patriots they were, they were undefeated.
Ricky:That you know, that even though they were undefeated or whatever.
Miggy:They're going for the perfect, you know, so they could still, they could still beat them, you know you can go in there and do what they got to get done at the time, patriots like the team ever that time yeah, and Josh McDaniels was an offensive coordinator for that team, so he thought he was Mr High and Mighty. Yeah, well, in that team meeting, when McDaniels heard that, that rubbed them the wrong way and he pulled Pierce off to the side, I think in front of the players, because I said after the team meeting it was after. Yeah, because some of them knew, you know so because body Pierce is close to everybody.
Miggy:But he pulled, so he pulled them off to the side and he told them to don't ever talk bad about the Patriots like that, ever again yeah, don't talk about that and you know, it's like when I heard that, I'm like whoa, I like what the hell? Do you even care about the Patriots anymore, dude? It's like are you a Raiders head coach or are you a Patriots coach still, which is my whole thing, the whole time yeah it's like because this guy was bringing in nothing but Patriots personnel.
Miggy:So if you know anybody in my circle, I was referring to the Raiders as a Patriots West and that shit just infuriates me. You know. So that for this idiot to pull out this, you know this, this coach that has been a diehard Raider his whole life and you know, even though he played professionally, he didn't get the chance to play for the Raiders but he still considered himself a Raider and we even heard that diehard, that Dave Karr story too.
Lano:Yeah, yeah, that tells you right there yeah.
Ricky:So the David loyalty, yeah, the David.
Miggy:Karr story goals he won, he played. They played together on those Giants teams and one game when they played against the Raiders. David Karr tells a story about how he um spiked the ball one time like a like Tom.
Miggy:Teeter Raiders celebration in celebration and Antonio Pierce gotta be pulled up to the side of total. May you know, you don't disrespect that team that way. And David Karr tells him he's like, well, whoa women is like don't you play for the Giants? He was like, yeah, but you don't disrespect that team that way that's my team over there you know, that's my team over there and he want.
Ricky:He won a Super Bowl championship with Giants, you know, but he's still a.
Miggy:Raider.
Ricky:Yeah, you know and um, nice, that's, that's what.
Miggy:So that that right there, what happened between McDaniels and Pierce got back to Mark Davis and that really must have rubbed them the wrong way. Finally, like the final straw, because he's like no, you know, it's like, this guy's never gonna be, he's never gonna do it the Raider way. Yeah, you know, and that part just didn't sit right with them because or maybe his dad came to him in a dream or something and right, yeah, told them.
Ricky:Hey, you know, it was a trip that scoop. We got that scoop out off of a valet guy before everybody started reporting it, that team anything?
Miggy:before. Yeah, blazer, everybody, yeah, the target to the values dude, how?
Ricky:um, because I guess the valet talked to someone. Oh, the the violator, the, the gorilla guy they all go out there for for brunch oh yeah, that's we. That's we talked to yeah, and they said they heard, they reported that, that that team meeting happened, that Daniels was pulled up. Here's a site in town. Don't be talking crap about the Patriots, so but and then all said and done is. He's gone, which was full circle AP.
Lano:The coach gets his win against the Giants.
Ricky:Huh yeah, first win his first win against his team that he played in one of the championship win, and I mean the most important thing is that the team did a complete 180 oh yeah, from what they?
Miggy:were before dude, and if that's not proof enough for you to show that McDaniels was a problem, then I don't know what more proof you need. You know it's like cuz. These guys were flying all over the field, dude. Eight sacks, two interceptions, freaking 30 points put up on the board. Josh Jacobs rushes for like over a hundred yards, two touchdowns. He hasn't done it all season. You know the kid throws well for about like 250 yards or something like that.
Lano:Mm-hmm and Adams did well.
Ricky:Jacobs was over a hundred, but then he got tackled for a loss.
Miggy:Oh well, maybe just under, just under a hundred but um that's the one thing I wanted to see. I wanted to see some interviews with the Devante Adams, because he's the reaction I wanted to see, but I guess there's no videos came up on them, you know it's like all, the focus stayed on all I know is that we're winning the Super Bowl you making any bets on the Raiders in Vegas?
Ricky:no, I did do the other but the stupid Rams, I killed my card, oh just to you know what this, this dude's. That just shows you why his fantasy team sucks because he put money on the Rams and fuck Matt Stafford was out with the broken thumb. I mean I broke it up, but yeah, he's like he's out, he's not playing.
Miggy:I'm like, yeah, dude, it's all over the damn your time out the way but then check it out. But then when I do pay attention to the Minnesota Vikings say they're not gonna start that dude, that they just got from Arizona Dobbs, where they say they're not gonna start them, and he ended up playing the game and kicking ass and winnings. I'm like, well shit, if I would have known that, then I would have, I would have put my money and I would put the Vikings in because they were like a better underdog than what the what the Rams were, and I would have won my ticket yeah but I knew about that news about the Rams quarterback not playing because you're a Rams fan no, no, I just heard today they signed Carson Wins.
Lano:You heard about that yeah, yeah so for our listeners, follow Mickey's gambling tips, but not football picks, yeah now. I'm worried. Are you getting excited about the weightage?
Miggy:you might push him cool about to beat the shit out of you. He's through, he's through.
Ricky:Keep drifting yo Peace.
Miggy:God save the llama.
