Chace Crawford and Will Compton on The Boys, USC to the Big Ten, and NBA Chaos

Big Cat and PFT are navigating a landscape of absolute sports anarchy. The Big Ten has officially swallowed USC and UCLA, a move that feels like the end of traditional college football as we know it, but PFT is already looking for the silver lining: a gambling goldmine in Evanston.

Gamblers should bet Northwestern at home at 11:00 AM versus USC when they join the Big Ten

I got to imagine that this is going to provide a great opportunity to gamblers out there who get to finally like hammer Northwestern at home versus USC at 11:00 AM when there's like a tornado in Chicago. And the Trojans quarterback has like never seen a cloud before.

USC played Northwestern at home in 2024 and won 31-23, though it wasn't a morning game or in a 'tornado'.

While some fans are mourning the death of the Pac-12, Big Cat is pointing out the sheer absurdity of the previous realignment. If we can accept Maryland and Rutgers in the Midwest, we can certainly accept the Trojans.

Adding USC and UCLA to the Big 10 is a more natural fit than Rutgers and Maryland

What made more sense? Like from a traditional standpoint, adding Rutgers and Maryland or USC and UCLA? Like this actually is more of a natural fit than Rutgers and Maryland were.

Subjective opinion on conference fit.

This isn't just about travel schedules; it’s a precursor to a total shift in the collegiate model. Big Cat predicts that the big-time programs will eventually drop the student-athlete charade entirely.

In 10 years, major college athletic programs will be separate entities from the schools

Probably like 10 years from now where schools are now, like the athletic programs, the big time college football and college basketball will just be separate from the school. They'll just have the name of that school... they won't have to follow fall under the jurisdiction of the NCAA and they'll just license the name out.

This is a long-term prediction. Trends in NIL and revenue sharing are moving in this direction, but it hasn't fully happened yet.

NBA Free Agency and Chace Crawford

Just as the Big Ten dust settled, Kevin Durant blew up the NBA world by requesting a trade from the Nets. Big Cat didn't need a deep source to figure out the catalyst for KD’s departure.

Kevin Durant requested a trade because he is sick of Kyrie Irving

Instant takes, turns out. He might not like Kyrie anymore. It turns out he might've thought, Hey, Kyrie, isn't that much fun to be around.

Durant and Irving were both eventually traded from the Nets within months of each other, and subsequent reports confirmed the instability of the Nets' core.

Actor Chace Crawford joined the show to discuss Season 3 of *The Boys*, his status as a certified Texas football name, and the hilarious rumors about CGI being used to reduce his "bulge" in his superhero suit. Being the brother-in-law of Tony Romo, Chace gave us some insight into Romo’s legendary athletic ability, suggesting the former QB could have a real future on the green if he focused.

Tony Romo could potentially play on the PGA Tour if he committed to it

Tony [Romo] is also the guy that can not play for like six months and just pick up a club and still shoot even par. I think he's got a chance. I mean, Tony... he just has that motion, you know? I don't know how he does it.

While Romo has played in some sponsor exemptions, he never secured a tour card or became a regular professional competitor.

As a diehard Cowboys fan, Chace is also feeling the same frustration that has plagued Dallas since the mid-90s. He thinks the current roster has the goods, but the leadership might be another story.

The Cowboys might need a coaching change

It's been a love-hate relationship, but they've got all the talent in the world... I might need, might need a coaching change. I don't know. I mean, I don't know fully... but there might need to be a little bit of a switch up.

McCarthy remained the coach for several more seasons despite constant rumors of his firing.

Mt. Rushmore of The Boys with Will Compton

Will Compton made his return to the studio to defend his crown as the host of the number one podcast in the world (for ten minutes) and join a very contentious Mt. Rushmore of "The Boys." Will is still grinding for his Year 10 in the NFL, though Big Cat thinks he should just keep the bit going until Year 25.

I am working as hard as possible to play Year 10 in the NFL

I'm always feeling it. I think right now it's work as hard as fucking possible... training every day, that's staying in shape, that's eating enough meat that vegans wouldn't want to go protest in DC right now. The boy's always going to be ready.

Will Compton did not play a 10th season in the NFL; he eventually retired to focus on media.

During the Mt. Rushmore, Will took a bold stance against mainstream Rocky fans while trying to bridge the gap between his show and PMT.

People who claim Rocky IV is their favorite are fake Rocky fans

People who claim that Rocky IV is their favorite, they're fake Rocky fans... I just think it's the easiest mainstream... Rocky I, II, III... Two is fucking great. Three, Apollo Creed and [Rocky] are kind of like Pardon My Take and Bussin' With The Boys.

This is a subjective opinion on movie fandom.

Big Cat, meanwhile, took a stand for a cinematic masterpiece that he believes doesn't get enough respect from the film snobs.

Hook is a top 50 movie of all time

I seriously think that. I think that movie ['Hook'] is a top 50 movie all time. That movie fucking rocks... I did a list. I think it comes in around the forties, but it's a top 50 movie of all time.

This is a subjective opinion, though critically most film experts would disagree.

Fyre Fest and the Mid-Week Struggle

The episode wrapped with a heated debate over when it is most appropriate for a functioning adult to get hammered. PFT argued that drinking on a Wednesday is a death sentence for your productivity, while Big Cat maintained that a bad Monday ruins the entire vibe of the week.

Wednesday is the worst night of the week for an adult to get drunk

I learned when I was like 34 years old to never, ever drink on a Wednesday. Wednesday is the worst night of the week to get drunk on by far... Thursday is a wash, Friday you're stricken with panic. You can't even enjoy your Friday cause you're trying to catch up on everything that you missed on Thursday.

Subjective lifestyle debate.

Monday is the worst night of the week to drink

Doing anything bad to your body on a Monday is just like a killer way to start off a week. Like it will just completely bare... I still think Monday would be the worst. I think if you start, if you really drunk on Monday night, your whole week is fucked. You're just fucked.

Subjective lifestyle debate.

Whether you're an Island Boy or a Lost Boy, just make sure you aren't allergic to shaving cream like Jake Marsh.

Good luck to everyone trying to survive a Tuesday hangover after a weekend of absolute chaos.

Oregon belongs in the SEC based on vibes alone

I honestly think that on vibes alone, Oregon should be in the sec. I feel like that's, that's where they belong as a, as a school. If I'm just like going strictly off five.

Oregon eventually joined the Big 10, not the SEC.

Tiger Woods needs a 10-part documentary series like The Last Dance

I feel like we need, you know, [Tiger Woods] is my, the MJ, my time, I'm obsessed with Tiger. So I feel like we need like a full, at least a documentary, like, like The Last Dance, like a 10-parter.

Adam Sandler is one of the all-time boys because he just wants to hoop

Adam Sandler... he's always like he's got, I think a boy has to have a little that immaturity in them and he comes into any set... pulls up on dudes playing basketball on the street and just wants to hoop.

Subjective categorization of Sandler's 'boy' status.
