QB Tiers, Joey Chestnut GOAT Status, and Mt. Rushmore of Minor Embarrassments
The boys are back in town after a ten-day hiatus, and the studio energy is at an all-time high. Everyone is tan, Max is looking more Italian than ever after dodging sunscreen all week, and the natural chemistry is firing on all cylinders as they catch up on everything they missed while raw-dogging the sun on the 4th of July.
The Greatness of Joey Chestnut
Big Cat opened the show with a heavy hitter, declaring that we are officially living in the greatest era of competitive eating. After watching Chestnut dominate yet again, Big Cat is ready to put him on the Mount Rushmore of all-time sports legends.
Big CatJoey Chestnut is a top five athlete of all time
I really do think that Joey Chestnut might be the greatest athlete of all time. I actually like broke it down... however you slice it, he's like top five athlete of all time.
PFT took the hypothetical even further, debating a race between Chestnut and Usain Bolt that involves a mandatory hot dog stop. While Bolt has the speed, PFT is banking on the lung capacity and sheer grit of the Glizzy GOAT over a longer distance.
PFT CommenterJoey Chestnut would beat Usain Bolt in a mile race if they both had to eat a hot dog first
Usain Bolt has literally never run a mile in his entire life... I think it switches at a mile. I think Joey Chestnut beats him.
LeBron to Cleveland and MLB Snubs
LeBron James has been acting extremely suspicious in Akron lately. Between working out at the Cavs facility and wearing "Welcome Home" gear, Big Cat is convinced the King is planning one final return to Ohio.
Big CatLeBron James is actively trying to work his way back to the Cleveland Cavaliers
I don't know, is LeBron, is he trying to work his way back to Cleveland? I think that would be good. Yeah. I would like to see it... he's doing this on purpose to get everyone talking about it and then he's gonna do it. I think he's gonna do it.
Switching to the diamond, PFT had some choice words for the Washington Nationals front office. Firing Mike Rizzo right before the draft felt like a slap in the face to a guy who was never given the budget to keep his superstars.
PFT CommenterFiring Nationals GM Mike Rizzo because of the team's record is nonsensical due to budget constraints
Firing a GM because you didn't give him enough money to spend on good food... That's like divorcing your wife because you got fat.
Max also chimed in on the MLB All-Star snubs, particularly the omission of Trea Turner, while the group collectively shuddered at the thought of the "Ass Eating" pact potentially coming to fruition if Christian Yelich wins the Home Run Derby.
Big CatIf Christian Yelich wins the Home Run Derby, Pardon My Take is officially over
If Christian competes in the home run derby and wins the home run derby... you know that your job would be, you wouldn't have a job. Why? Because the show would end. The last scene of this show would be us eating each other's ass. We can't come back from that. It'd be over.
The 2025 QB Tier List
It’s July, which means it’s time for the annual exercise in making every fan base in America furious. Big Cat and PFT broke down their QB tiers, and while some picks were consensus, others were designed to start a civil war.
Big CatJosh Allen is the best quarterback in the NFL
I think Josh Allen should be one. I had Josh Allen one, Patrick Mahomes two, Lamar three.
Hank, ever the contrarian, wasn't sold on the defending champ's longevity, suggesting that the era of Mahomes dominance might be showing some cracks.
The most controversial part of the list? The ranking of Dak Prescott. After years of being the "17th best QB," the guys decided the Dak era of mediocrity has officially plummeted him down the list into the "Accurate Ranking" tier.
Big CatDak Prescott is the 24th best quarterback in the NFL
Make the accurate ranking tier. Just be 23 Daniel Jones, 24 Dak... I googled QB Rankings for 2025 Pro Football Focus. Where do you think they had Dak Prescott? 18, 17... I couldn't make him the 17th best anymore.
Who’s Back and Mt. Rushmore of Minor Embarrassments
Who's Back featured a hilarious breakdown of Jerry O'Connell’s investigative journalism at Tiffany Gomas's house, confirming that Hank did indeed leave a permanent mark on her wall. Zach also introduced the legend of Brian Steele, the lawyer who seems physically incapable of losing a case.
ZacBrian Steele is the greatest defense attorney of all time
Brian Steele might just be the greatest defense attorney of all time... he has beat racketeering charges for his clients for the second time... Young Thug... Sean Combs.
The show wrapped with a Mount Rushmore of Minor Embarrassing moments. We’ve all been there: the public trip-and-fall, the accidental wave to a stranger, or the absolute horror of a grown man trying to look cool while wearing a bike helmet.
Big CatIt is embarrassing for a grown man to wear a bike helmet
You just can't, you just look like a fucking fool and you look like an idiot. Especially when you get off the bike and you're like, walking without the bike.
Big Cat and Zach bonded over the shared shame of physical activity, noting that almost any form of running or getting hit in the head with a ball makes a grown man look like a toddler in the worst way possible.
Big CatGetting hit in the head with a ball is always embarrassing regardless of the situation
Getting hit in the head with a ball, no matter how it happens, is always embarrassing. Like I'm saying, you could be playing catch it hits you in the head. That's very embarrassing. But even when we're playing hoops out here and like everyone's shooting around and you're not even looking and the ball hits you in the back of the head, you're embarrassed.
It's good to have the guys back in the lab before they head to Tahoe for what promises to be a legendary Chill Week.
