Drew Brees on the NFC Championship No-Call and the Warriors Crack
The Warriors are finally showing some cracks, and it’s mostly because Patrick Beverley has decided to live inside Kevin Durant’s jersey. Big Cat and PFT are relishing the chaos in Golden State after the Clippers’ massive 31-point comeback. Between Boogie Cousins getting hurt and Draymond’s mom taking shots at KD on Twitter, the dynasty feels like it’s on its last legs. Big Cat is already looking past the postseason for the Slim Reaper.
Big CatKevin Durant is leaving the Warriors the second the season is over
I'm of the mindset that Kevin Durant's gone the second the season's over.
While the Warriors are stumbling, the Orlando Magic are apparently the greatest team in basketball history. Since the show was recorded before Game 2, Big Cat and PFT simply assumed a 2-0 lead for Orlando because the Raptors simply do not have the grit to handle MCW and DJ Augustin.
PFT CommenterThe Magic are going to beat the Raptors and win the NBA title
The Raptors stink. The Magic are going to win the title. They beat [the Raptors'] ass so bad that Magic Johnson logged on to congratulate his Magic counterpart in Orlando.
Russell Wilson Gets Paid and NHL Pain
Russell Wilson secured a massive bag with his new $140 million extension, celebrating with a video in bed that was NC State Russ levels of awkward. Big Cat and PFT broke down the quarterback market, arguing that only a very select few deserve that kind of money before the inevitable quarterback bubble bursts.
Big CatThere are only three quarterbacks in the NFL worth a 4-year, $140 million contract
There are three quarterbacks in all the NFL that you would give this deal to... Aaron Rodgers already got it. Russell Wilson just got it. Patrick Mahomes is the third. There's not anyone else. You can't think of any other guys.
Over in the NHL, the Capitals got smoked 5-0 by the Hurricanes, but PFT isn't sweating it. Alexander Ovechkin also spent his night beating up a 19-year-old on the ice, which the guys decided was just a classic case of "don't ask for a fight if you can't take the punch."
PFT CommenterCapitals losing 5-0 is better than a close overtime loss
If it was a 4-3 overtime loss, I would be a little bit more worried. But the fact that I was rooting for it to get worse... 5-0, you can just wipe that one off. You can just say, wasn't our night, fellas.
Drew Brees
Future Hall of Famer Drew Brees joined the show to talk about his new partnership with Untuckit and, more importantly, that infamous no-call in the NFC Championship game. While the city of New Orleans is still dressing up like blind referees for Mardi Gras, Brees is trying to stay professional, though he admits it took a long time to get over the loss. He reflected on his "sliding doors" moment with the Dolphins and Nick Saban, ultimately deciding everything happened for a reason.
Drew BreesNew Orleans was God's calling for me, and Nick Saban belongs at Alabama
I think we can only recognize that it's worked out for both of us. That New Orleans was where I belonged and... I was there for a reason. That was truly God's calling for me and my wife and for [Nick] Saban. I think that he's done pretty well for himself at Alabama, so it's all worked out for everybody.
Brees also shared some love for his alma mater, Purdue. When PFT tried to debate whether Brees or Neil Armstrong was the most important Boilermaker in history, the Saints QB showed some rare humility regarding the man who literally walked on the moon.
Drew BreesNeil Armstrong is a more significant Purdue alum than I am
I'd say that's pretty significant, though, what Neil Armstrong accomplished. So I'd have to put him up there [above me].
Hot Seat/Cool Throne and Segments
Hot Seat/Cool Throne featured a deep dive into the world of "Be-sexual" porn—Pornhub’s campaign to save the honeybees—which PFT seemed a little too familiar with. The guys also looked at the NFL Draft stock of Daniel Jones. While the Duke quarterback is climbing mock drafts, PFT smells a conspiracy involving the Manning family and a desire to keep Eli in the starting job for as long as possible.
PFT CommenterArchie Manning is behind the Daniel Jones hype to protect Eli Manning's job
Very clearly Archie Manning [is behind this] because the Manning family is fucking in love with Duke's coach [David Cutcliffe]... And this guy is just somebody that's been around Peyton and Eli for long enough that Archie's like, he's my third boy... He knows how to keep this guy under control and not be good enough to take Eli's job for at least five years.
In a classic "Way to Stay Relevant" baseball segment, the guys reacted to Blake Snell injuring his toe while trying to move a granite stand in his shower. Big Cat isn't buying the official story and thinks there was a much more athletic reason for the slip.
Big CatBlake Snell was actually having sex in the shower when he hurt his toe
Dude, you're having sex in the shower. Like that was a really long way of just saying, hey, I was having sex in the shower and I stubbed my toe.
The show wrapped up with a new segment called "Guys on Guys," which was essentially just the guys giving terrible life advice to other guys. They also addressed the "Drake Curse" hitting European soccer, leading to a radical suggestion for the Toronto Raptors' front office.
Big CatThe Raptors should trade Drake to break the Drake Curse
The Raptors should trade Drake. He's a big mad. I think he's upset.
If you ever find yourself betting your pinky finger on whether a girl likes you, just remember that rejection is much more painful than losing a digit.
