Johnny Hekker and Kevin Huber on #PuntWeek and Skyline Chili
Punt Week is reaching its absolute peak as Big Cat and PFT continue their mission to prove that punters are, in fact, people too. After the MLB awards somehow managed to screw Justin Verlander and remind everyone that baseball still exists for some reason, the conversation shifted to the real gridiron. With the election in the rearview, the guys are looking at a brave new world for the NFL where the 'intellectual' era of worrying about player safety might finally be over.
PFT CommenterDonald Trump saved football because Americans will care less about CTE science during his presidency
Under Trump, the country will care less about truth or facts. It'll be more raw and brutal. Football will be more of an outlet. We'll go back to liking our violent sports... So Trump saved football. He saved football. Already made America great again.
Speaking of health, the guys checked in on Robert Griffin III. PFT is ready to buy the dip on RG3's stock as he nears a return to the winless Browns, envisioning a scenario where the former rookie of the year becomes the hottest commodity on the market once again.
PFT CommenterRobert Griffin III will lead the Browns to their first win and his free agent stock will soar
That would be the most Robert Griffin triumph of all time is if he led the Browns to their one win. And then, guess what? Stock goes way up in the free agent marketplace.
Stardom and Sit-em
With a massive weekend ahead including a trip to a hotel for the KFC Radio event, Big Cat and PFT broke down their essential travel and holiday rankings. Big Cat has his priorities straight when it comes to climate control, insisting that a hotel room should feel like a meat locker.
Big CatSetting a hotel room thermostat to 60 degrees is the best move in life
Stardom, putting the hotel room to like 60 degrees. That is the best move out there. Love doing that. I don't even care if it's winter. Just get under those blankets.
While Big Cat is freezing himself out, PFT is looking ahead to the biggest social event on the calendar. Forget the actual holiday; it's all about the pre-game festivities at the local hometown watering hole.
PFT CommenterStart buying new clothes for the night before Thanksgiving because it's the biggest bar night of the year
My stardom is getting a haircut and buying exactly one new pair of jeans and a sweater because next Wednesday night, biggest bar night of the year, you're going to see all your old high school friends. Got to be looking fresh.
Then there’s Hank. Hank continues to prove he might be a different species by revealing his 'stardom' for hotel stays involves a level of bathroom chemistry that would make a mad scientist cringe.
HankStart mixing all hotel bathroom products into a single concoction to use at once
My stardom, also hotel-related, is when you just take all the shampoo, soap, conditioner, and just squeeze them into one concoction... The three mini bottles.
Johnny Hekker and Kevin Huber
Rams punter Johnny Hekker joined the show to discuss his status as a legendary trick-play artist and the highest-rated passer in Rams history over the last few years. He gave us an inside look at Jeff Fisher’s legendary fashion sense and why he’s perfectly content staying home two hours before the actual quarterbacks.
Johnny HekkerJeff Fisher's fashion sense is stuck in the early 2000s NBA 'Double-XL Tall T' movement
I think he really caught on, like, the early 2000s in, like, the double XL tall T movement and just, like, never really moved on. Always wearing sunglasses indoors and stuff, wearing big old T's. I think he's pretty, like, he's pretty hood, actually... He's like early 2000s NBA.
Johnny also walked us through his terrifying encounter with the Seahawks' Cliff Avril and Michael Bennett, admitting that his 'armadillo' self-preservation mode is a real thing. When asked who would win in a punter-only brawl, he didn't hesitate to crown a champion.
Johnny HekkerThomas Morstead would be the last man standing in a punter battle royale
I think Thomas Morstead, actually. I feel like he secretly does karate and stuff, and he's super jacked. John Ryan's also pretty jacked... I don't think I've survived too long to find out.
Next, Kevin Huber of the Cincinnati Bengals hopped on to defend his city’s honor. The conversation immediately devolved into a deep dive on Skyline Chili. While Big Cat and PFT remain convinced it's just a liquid laxative, Huber maintains it's a misunderstood delicacy that out-of-towners simply can't handle.
Kevin HuberSkyline Chili is good; people only hate it because they have soft out-of-town stomachs
I think it's pretty good... I got a feeling that your hatred for Skyline comes from, you know, just your guys' soft stomachs out there in New York... out-of-towners don't have a very tough stomach.
NFL Picks and Stay Woke
For the Week 11 slate, the guys are leaning into the gut. PFT is heading south of the border for his big play, christening the Raiders' trip to Mexico City as the 'Don Julio Shot of the Week.'
PFT CommenterThe Raiders will beat the Texans in Mexico City as the 'Don Julio Shot of the Week'
And then the Raiders in Mexico City. Hey, what do you say we make that our shot of the week? Don Julio, Mexico tequila. O-Cart Julio. O-Culio. O-Culio shot of the week. Darkheart shot of the week.
Big Cat, meanwhile, is ready to walk right into a trap in the nation's capital, despite knowing exactly what is happening to him.
Big CatThe Redskins will beat the Packers in Week 11
And I'm going to walk right into it, and it's going to snatch me up, and I'm taking the Redskins... So I'm going Redskins.
To wrap things up, Big Cat presented a theory that has been rattling around his brain since the election. He noticed a suspicious lack of face paint and oversized shoes in the news lately and thinks he's found the culprit.
Big CatThe fact that creepy clowns disappeared immediately after the election proves Donald Trump paid them to create chaos during the campaign
What happened to the clowns?... Before the election. Now the clowns just are gone? Chaos is good for Trump. You don't think Trump bought some clowns and had them kind of have some panic around America? Because that's coincidental that the clowns are just not here anymore.
Just remember, if you see a clown now, it’s probably just someone who started their Christmas decorations too early. Put some respect on Thanksgiving.
