Tyson Fury on Wilder Trilogy, Ezekiel Mitchell, and NFL Week 5 Preview
Thursday Night Football gave us the full Seahawks experience, which basically means everything that could go wrong did. We had Russell Wilson’s finger pointing in a direction no finger should ever point, a double punt that confused every official on the field, and the return of Geno Smith. Big Cat is already fully bought in on the Geno era, even if it only lasts as long as Russ is in the shop.
The Dodgers knocked the Cardinals out of the postseason in a heartbreaker, which officially killed Big Cat's World Series prediction before it even really got started.
I really thought this was the Cardinals' year in the World Series
It sucks because Cardinals were actually my pick to win the World Series, so I feel bad about that. I really did think it was their year.
Week 5 Preview and the Standing Your Ground Game
The slate for Week 5 is headlined by a massive Bills-Chiefs rematch on Sunday night. Big Cat is riding with Buffalo, citing the revenge factor and the fact that the Chiefs' defense currently couldn't stop a nosebleed.
The Bills will beat the Chiefs in their Sunday night revenge game
I do think the Bills are going to win this game because I think the revenge factor and also this is one of those games where it's like, which team do you trust more to get a stop? And I would put that on the Bills.
Hank is laying the points with the Packers against the Bengals, expecting a masterclass from Aaron Rodgers in Cincinnati.
The Packers will dominate the Bengals by 10 points
My favorite's going to be the Packers. Minus three against the Bengals... I see this being a 10-point, never in doubt, Aaron Rodgers kind of dominates game.
Speaking of the AFC North, the Steelers are in a dark place. Big Cat has reached his breaking point with Big Ben and the gang, declaring this week's matchup against Denver a literal must-win for his gambling soul.
I am officially 'standing my ground' on the Steelers against the Broncos
My personal stand my ground game where if the Steelers don't win this game, I am done not only with the Steelers this season, but done betting on them, just pretending they don't exist. This is the game that if they have any pulse left, it's a pulse check. If they have any pulse left, they will win this game.
In the NFC South, the Panthers and Eagles are both trying to prove they aren't just mid-tier filler. Big Cat isn't interested in nuance here: he’s ready to label the loser of this game as officially bad.
The loser of the Eagles vs. Panthers game officially stinks
This is an are you for real game... If the Eagles win, it's are you for real? Are you going to be like one of those teams that's hanging around maybe 8-9, 9-8? If the Panthers win this game, I think they're back on track to maybe being a decent team. I'm going to come out of this game thinking the loser stinks.
Jake also introduced a new term to the PMT lexicon: the "Lunder." It’s an under so locked in it deserves a name that sounds like a 1920s detective, specifically for the Jets-Falcons game in London.
The Jets and Falcons will stay under 45 points (The 'Lunder')
I'm with Hank and Liam. I am calling this a Lunder. Lunder 45. Lunder, yes.
Tyson Fury: The Gypsy King
Tyson Fury joined the show ahead of his massive trilogy fight against Deontay Wilder. He wasn't shy about his feelings for Wilder, calling him out for the laundry list of excuses he made after the second fight, ranging from heavy costumes to drugged water.
Deontay Wilder is a pathetic loser
I don't hate the guy. Guy's a pathetic loser. So how could I have any anger with him at all?
Fury's mindset is fascinating. He doesn't believe in fighting with anger, preferring to stay relaxed and let instinct take over once the bell rings.
Having anger in a boxing match is a recipe for losing
I think the man who has anger in a boxing match will lose. This is not an angry situation to be in. It's a sporting contest. And I've done all my training. When I get in there, I just do what I got to do. Be relaxed and enjoy it.
He also gave some financial advice that Dave Ramsey would probably appreciate. Despite being the heavyweight champion of the world, Fury still flies the budget airlines in England because he knows the career of an athlete is short.
You get rich through saving money, not just earning it
I fly on a plane called Ryanair. That's the cheapest you can fly on in England... In 10, 15 years, when all the boxing's done and all these idiots are all flat broke... I'll still be a multimillionaire. Because it's not how much you can earn. It's how much you can save.
Ezekiel Mitchell and the Art of Bull Riding
Professional bull rider Ezekiel Mitchell dropped by the studio to explain the sheer insanity of his sport. He broke down the genetics of the industry, explaining that while riders are getting better, the bulls are being bred to be absolute monsters.
Bucking bulls are getting tougher and bred to buck harder
Bulls are getting tougher. It's just like the horse racing industry. They bred faster horses. They're breeding bulls to buck harder. And that's where we're finding a lack in actually getting more bull riders into the sport.
Zeke gave us the scouting report on the current heavyweight of the bull world, Whoop-A, and settled the legendary debate between Dillinger and Bodacious.
Dillinger was a better bull than Bodacious
I'd be a Dillinger guy. As far as what a guy would want to see out of a bucking bull as a rider, I think that Dillinger was a way better bull.
He also cleared up some major misconceptions about how these bulls are motivated. No, testicles are not being shocked, and yes, the guys in the face paint are officially "bullfighters" now, not clowns.
Bucking bulls can sense and feed off a rider's energy
They can tell more so if you're nervous or if things don't feel right with you. They kind of feed off your energy... I'm already like an amped up person as it is. So I guess I'm more of a try to calm myself down, and that way I can actually focus on the things that I'm supposed to be doing.
Fyre Fest and Giant Cookies
To wrap things up, Billy Football admitted he is currently addicted to making giant cookies. He’s ditched the standard size in favor of massive, pizza-sized discs that he reheats in an air fryer.
The best way to eat a cookie is to make it giant with a crispy outside and gooey inside
Instead of making small cookies, I make four gigantic cookies. And then I bake them. And then I make them gooey, and then I eat one... Well, the thing about the big cookie is you can get the outside crispy and then the inside gooey.
He also shared a very specific take on the Zodiac Killer news, though it quickly spiraled into a debate about the "GOAT" status of various serial killers.
Ted Bundy is a wildly overrated serial killer
Ted Bundy is wildly overrated. I mean, I... Ted Bundy was overrated as a killer. He's just good looking.
If the Steelers lose this weekend, Big Cat might actually be the first person to ever voluntarily enter the transfer portal as a fan.
