Speaker 1:

and the boys are back with another episode of the group chat. It's your boy, b scar aka beach, and I'm sitting here with my co-host, my dog with the alley oop it's your boy, deej, and you know what they say, man, you know, the lions won again.

Speaker 2:

What's up, brother? How are you?

Speaker 1:

man, I'm well, bro, I'm well. Not only did the Lions win, but in a dominant fashion, bro, Y'all are rolling With the 50 piece. What was it? 52?

Speaker 2:

52, I believe 52-14. We had some things to correct, obviously on film, but that was a good one. We had some things to correct, obviously on film, but that was a good one. We had four turnovers on defense Offensive day thing, special teams went buzzard, special teams went crazy.

Speaker 3:

Hey punt, safe got to return to the crib.

Speaker 2:

I'm telling you, man you want to win, put safe in dog.

Speaker 2:

Put safe in. Let them spin. Man, put a safe. Got to return to the crib, shout out my dog, khalif Raymond, because you know we kind of block. But you know it's really about the holdup when you're on. Put a safe. It's not about the blocking, it's not about the. You know what I'm saying, not about the blocking. You got to hold up. Give my man some lanes, give my man some lanes. And he did his thing. I seen him running towards me. I seen no flags. I said all you got to do is beat the punter. He beat the punter. I ain't going to lie. I was too tired to even go to the end zone, so I just walked off the field. I was hyped, though I was hyped.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, kalief, kalief Raymond's got wheels, he's got top speed.

Speaker 2:

For, for those who don't know, you say punt safe, punt safe is is what punt safe is when, uh, you think they may be running a fake usually. Now I will say that most guys that own punt safe do lollygag and and I'm here to tell you guys around the league, don don't do it, man. You can get a tutty because they're underestimating you and you're big and you're strong and all you got to do is push hard, just push and hold them up out there.

Speaker 2:

I'll get them out, make them have plenty of room to cut. That's all you can do. But usually people lightly gag on, punt safe and it's just out there for the fake. But you know, we us as the Detroit Lions we take pride in that. You know we got a great special teams coach and he tells us every week, not only does he tell us, he will call your ass out on film if you do not take that rep seriously during practice. So he goes ahead and sets the precedent that we will be taking this shit serious in the game. And I appreciate it, bro, because you know what, out of all my years, it paid off. This year, baby, it paid off. We got a Teddy, we got a Teddy. So I appreciate him going hard and he made me a believer. He made me a believer. You know what? I've never had a fake ran against me because I do go hard during that play.

Speaker 2:

But you know I used to be one of those guys like why the fuck are we watching this Like, excuse me, lane? Why are we watching this on film Like who cares? Just wants to see the defense out there. They're not going to run it. He made me a believer this week and that's why we got. Hey, that's all you got to do. You got to change one.

Speaker 1:

Change the mind of one there. You guys think they might potentially be going, for it could be a fake. So you put punt safe in, which has mostly the defensive players, so you keep the defense out there, but you do put khalif back, put your returner back and take somebody else out. And you were in there also because you're, you're. You're in there holding up the gaps just in case they try to. They try to do something funky, they try to run a trick, play whatever. You're holding up holding up the A-gaps. So what was your hold-up looking like on that play? You came off the rock. Did you hem up the guard? Did you dominate the long snapper and just bully?

Speaker 2:

him. I dominated the guard and the PP behind the guard. I got both of them. You got two, a double up and then a push at the Ah. Get out of here. See you on your way down the field. Get on the good.

Speaker 1:

Hey, that's the teach tape that Coach points out in film Teach tape. Look at 98. Look at Reader out there just going hard. That's what we need. That's why we scored. He took two. The great ones, they take two.

Speaker 2:

Facts. They take two. You would have been proud of me. B. I had a high screen on a pick. I wanted to go back and kill him. I wanted to come back and give him one of these. Boo, I wasn't selfish, came back hey, a little high screen.

Speaker 3:

I said I've been watching.

Speaker 2:

I've been watching the special teams take dog. I've been locked in. I'm telling you I've been watching. Didn't get selfish in that moment, because you know how offensive line and defensive line get when you got your times to get them back. You know how it feels Like you really want to. But I was like you really want to, but I was like you know what for the betterment of the team, I'm gonna go high screen.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, the high, but the high screen is is really finesse, though you know they only start coaching. That what four, maybe four seasons ago, ish, you know, when they made that rule you couldn't do the blind side block and that that high screen it can get technical. Now you know, because if you're not careful you could look stupid. You could high screen nothing, or you do try to do a high screen, you trip up and you end up following your ass and you didn't block a soul.

Speaker 2:

You can high screen and miss the shit after block. That's what I'm saying. You really got to finesse this. Yeah, you can high screen and miss the shit out your block. That's what I'm saying, you really got to finesse this.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 2:

You ain't going to miss that one. That was a guaranteed hitter. Now you got to Reggie. The only thing I thought about is if he foot freezes me? And what if I high screen and he used me to make the tackle Like, what if he that strong? What if I high screen and he still pushed me?

Speaker 1:

Was it that close? You were that close. The high screen was like right on the returner.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, the high screen was pretty close to the play down.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to tell you.

Speaker 2:

The high screen was close, but the guy who was in front of my high screen, he actually cut the playoff. So it was like, right there, my high screen was good, but the guy who took the other angle in front of him all tripped him up.

Speaker 1:

Oh, okay, okay so you took three. Essentially, what are you saying? You got the guard the PP and the high screen. So you took three. Essentially, what are you saying? You got the guard, the PP and the high screen, so you got three.

Speaker 2:

High screen is a different play on a pick oh.

Speaker 1:

I got you.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, I just had to lock up and shuck on the play.

Speaker 1:

Got you, got you, okay. Hey, you're doing all the right things, man. That's what we want to see out of the leader on the defense. You know what I mean Doing the dirty work.

Speaker 2:

More you can do, man. You know I feel like old Deej out there, bro. First play of the game or second, play One of those two. You see they tried to cut me. You see on the video the boys tried to cut me. I played through it. Tackle, it's okay. However, you get him down.

Speaker 3:

Bro, it looked good.

Speaker 1:

It looked good, because you're flying down the line of scrimmage, dude.

Speaker 4:

Hey, I see flashes.

Speaker 1:

Hey, come on now. You ain't lost a step, man.

Speaker 2:

Got Tony Pollard's fast now. Got Tony Pollard's fast now. I saw the glimpses of my being able to make a play closing. I was like, oh, he's rolling today. He came to play. That was good man.

Speaker 1:

That was good. It was a smooth landing too. You didn't get the face mask all up in the turf too much. You kept your face out of it, tripped it up. It was a smooth walk-off with the tackle. I like that, bro. It was a smooth walk-off with the tackle. I like that, bro. You're doing good man, you're doing good. Great to see you guys rolling. Now you're 6-1.

Speaker 2:

Yes, sir.

Speaker 1:

Yes, sir. So we're almost at the halfway point and man, keep it going, brother. It's great to see you out there doing your thing. It feels good, man. Keep it going, brother. It's great to see you out there doing your thing.

Speaker 2:

It feels good man, it feels good brother Just rolling, keeping it going. I got some good teammates around me so it's been fun.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we got some pick-ems for our college football. It's about halfway through the season. It's close, man, it's. It's anyone's pick them this year. Last year, by this time you had already rolled, run away with it. This year, I'm right there. Uh, this we're tied up, we're tied up. Going into I don't even know what week it is a college football, but going into this week we got some big matchups. The first is Ohio State and Penn State. Who you got Ohio State? Give me Ohio State. I'll take Penn State. On the other side, penn State's falling off. Man, it's at Penn State, though. Give me Ohio State. All right, pitt, number 18, pitt at 20 SMU I'm going to go Pitt on this one. Give me SMU. We got Louisville at number 11, clemson. Okay, I got Clemson as well. Duke, I don't even have a question. Yeah, duke. At number five, miami.

Speaker 2:

I really am not impressed by Miami, but they are undefeated and Cam Ward is the man I just think they team just as a whole. They get shaky, but you know they're at home, so I'm going to take Miami.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to take Miami too. And to finish it off, we got number one Oregon. At Michigan, I'm rolling with the fighting ducks, yeah. Oregon, I'm rolling with the fighting ducks, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Oregon. I'm sorry, guys, but I don't know what is going on with y'all. I don't know how you go from winning a natty to being this bad. Like it's just I get you lose players, but y'all are Michigan, hey, that transfer portal.

Speaker 1:

man, you win the championship. Everybody's looking at you.

Speaker 2:

It's not like they Clemson, like we don't even get portal guys. They take guys out to portal. Like if I'm Michigan, we rebuilding every year. We just had my boy stealing signs. We doing all that, everything it's clear. Like you know what I'm saying, what we doing, like we trying to make it to the league, what are y'all doing? Yeah, yeah, but at the same.

Speaker 1:

At the same time, though, if I'm a, if I'm a high level recruit, do I want to go to the place that just left? This is when the championship is there. Is there enough meat on the bone for that team? They already got all their, all their guys. I might want to go over somewhere where I got a chance to step on the field and play as a starter and go make this money as a recruit yeah, but you would hope that they lost some guys.

Speaker 2:

I wouldn't think that they lost some guys. Last year Michigan lost a running back, lost a quarterback, lost some receivers, lost some defenders, shit. I mean, even if you don't get a high-level recruit, if you knew you was losing that player, you want to replace him with a capable guy. You'd think you would go into the portal and go get the guy you know what I'm saying they're Michigan, it's not. You know what I'm saying we're not, it's Michigan dog yeah.

Speaker 1:

It's not like they don't got the money, you know they got the money for it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, no change of money. No, no, no, no shortage of history. Like you know, I'm saying they got it all, everything you don't want.

Speaker 1:

So it's either it's two things, I mean, it could be three things. It could be bad coaching, number two, it could just be bad players, but bad players and lead would would mean that. The third thing bad recruiting, uh, bad recruiting, let's bad, bad players, uh I don't know but at this point in time you almost have to have all.

Speaker 1:

You got to have a whole scouting department, especially if you're coming off a natty and you know there's a target on your back and every other division, one team, is looking for the depth. That didn't play enough and say, hey, you back up outside linebacker, come over here, come over here to Oregon State, come over here to Penn State, come over here to wherever you could be our starter and we got a bag for you. They didn't treat you right at Michigan, we'll treat you right over here. You know you got that target on your back, so you have to have a scout. You got to have a scouting department. Your player engagement got to have a scouting department. A player engaged, your player engagement got to be paid attention to.

Speaker 2:

Bro. And then you had, like we've known Harbaugh's going to leave for years, right, like it's always been talks, and you hired from within. So it's not like you went out and got a stranger, Like it's just I don't know. Like you said, you, you, just you would think they would have been better prepared for what happened.

Speaker 1:

Before we go any further, man got to give you a shout out for that shirt you got on, brother.

Speaker 2:

Hey man, you know, you see it, my guy High quality content. Support my guy man.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 1:

Well, anyways, no man love the T-shirt, appreciate your support. Caroline did the design on there. So for all the listeners, dj's wearing the Scarlet Creative home team jersey. Let's go into NFL.

Speaker 1:

Man, there was something that happened this past Sunday that I personally had never seen before the Colts quarterback, anthony Richardson. He subbed himself out. He subbed himself out and he went out for a play, took a knee. After that he came back in the game. Then, when he was asked about it after the game in the press conference, they asked him like, oh, you subbed yourself out. Were you hurt or were you tired? What was going on? And he said he said I was tired. Man, I was tired, I ain't gonna lie. I said something like that. And so he said he was tired.

Speaker 1:

And he said he couldn't, he wasn't able to go the next play, or he didn't feel like he'd be able to go the next play, which to me I was like for any other position on the field, that would be perfectly fine, that'd be acceptable, right, you know, if you just like, either, say for that pick when you wouldn't got that high screen, right, obviously you guys coming out off the off the field, but for some reason you had to go for one more play. You were just dog tired. You would tap yourself out, tap your helmet and go out for a couple of plays and then it'd be perfectly normal. But for a quarterback, even if Anthony Richardson did go and run for a 30-yard, 40-yard whatever and was dog-tired, him tapping out was an issue, because you just don't see it very often. So I don't know, I kind of saw the other side for him, like hey, he's just tired, but I don't know, what do you think?

Speaker 2:

I mean, it's just so much that goes into it. I also feel like if you're going to take one playoff as a quarterback, I mean, don't you got ability to like check? Can't you like call a run? Like I can just check this play into a run play right here. I get it, like I might be dogging it, but we can get the gun I'm like hey, check, check, hey, Omaha, what they're heading this.

Speaker 2:

Check, check, hey, omaha, what Heading this reel off this inside zone. Getting my breath a little bit, put a couple hands on my hips like all right, now he only went out for one play right, yeah, yeah. So I mean it's just so you can't do that to the team. Their other quarterback doesn't have the green dot, like you only got one quarterback with the green dot helmet. So many changes, that's got to go on, but I get being tired, bro.

Speaker 2:

But I don't know that every other quarterback run as much as him but if Lamar ain't ever tired, bro, you ain't got to choose to be just saying you're just exhausted. You know what I'm saying. One, you don't come in contact with people every play like every other position. You're not running routes like receivers. You're not blocking like a lineman or running backs. You know what I'm saying. Like it, I get it.

Speaker 2:

But you, the leader of the team, bro, no other quarterback really has ever done it and you just think you just you got options. I think you got other options to just sub yourself out. That's what I'm saying. Like that, right, I'm not. You know you got an options to just sub yourself out. That's what I'm saying. Like, I'm not saying you know you got an excuse to not be tired, because I get being tired, it happens. But I think your options are you got other options, as opposed to other players that, like me, as a defensive lineman, I get tired. I got to come out because, like you can just spam that run play over and over once you see me tired and crush me. You know what I'm saying. Like you can crush me, you got control in your hands. That was a nasty look. It's not a good look for me, boy.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, there were definitely better alternatives and you make a great point about you know. He could have just came to the line and called a run, play, handed the ball off. It would have given him some time to catch his breath. And then you, you know, after the game, when the reporter asked him exactly what happened, uh he also had options.

Speaker 1:

At that point too, he could have been like, hey, man, my low back was was really talking to me, I had to just go and take a knee for a second. But he didn't have to say that you retired. And Michael Parsons actually said like next time, bro, lie and I respect Anthony Richardson, you know a grown man, as a grown man, like what I gotta lie for I'm gonna tell you the truth. But at the same time, bro, you do have a whole franchise watching you and your behavior. What you say, what you do, your actions influence how we feel as a team, how ownership, how fanship, the fan base, et cetera, et cetera, all feel about their team. So at that point in time you really could have said, ah, you're my ankle. I was just talking to myself.

Speaker 2:

As a matter of fact, lie on the field too. That way you could have got more of a break. If you came up limping a little bit on your ankle, maybe you could have really got some breaths. You went out there for one play.

Speaker 1:

I know you ain't getting no real rest, but man Joe Flacco's stepping in, so we'll see how Joe does. We've got a stat here. Joe flacco is is four months younger than anthony richardson's mom, so joe's about old enough to be be your daddy. Joe better not tap out he better. He better not tap himself out, man he's a savvy vet.

Speaker 2:

He never checked that run that run play. I'm sure 100% Go ahead and check this quick little dive real quick if I'm a little exhausted.

Speaker 1:

Another thing that happened over the weekend was Jameis Winston is back. He's back as a starting quarterback following Deshaun Watson's unfortunate injury. This dude has the funniest pregame speeches, like when he addresses the team. I'm tuned in. I really watch and listen to the way that this dude addresses the team. And man, we got some clips. Let's go ahead and jump into some of these clips of old famous Jameis.

Speaker 4:

Man. It's a white boy from Detroit that I really admire, named Eminem. He said you only get one shot. Do not miss your chance to blow. This opportunity lasts once in a lifetime. And I know I got to quote. You know Eminem, he from Detroit, he right up the road. But, man, I'm just grateful. I'm grateful that Deloitte provided me with this opportunity. I'm grateful for my teammates, my coaches and these amazing fans.

Speaker 1:

Bro, and then this white boy from Detroit, bro Jalen, does no filter man.

Speaker 2:

He's priceless because he's dead serious.

Speaker 1:

You can't say the sky's the limit with people on the road. That's a fact. I kind of like that one. I kind of like that one Come on, the move's the limit. What's on the move's the limit. What's up the move's the limit.

Speaker 2:

Hey, did you see the speech that he said let's go out there and play for the teams, the names of our jerseys and the team on our helmet. He said, well, we ain't got no logos.

Speaker 4:

What do you expect from yourself? This is the day that the Lord has made. I will be glad and rejoicing in it.

Speaker 3:

You're looking really focused right now. You told us this week that everyone inside this building believes that this is the time you guys can turn it around. What's been the message?

Speaker 4:

Unwavering faith, ultimate belief, depending on the Lord. That's all we got you told me no nerves just excitement and butterflies Still feel that way Unwavering faith, ultimate belief, dependence on the Lord.

Speaker 3:

The message is clear, guys. Thank you, Jay.

Speaker 1:

Bro, it's the staring to the camera.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's the thing. I didn't have any problem with the message the stare.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, no, that, look into the camera. That's priceless. That is priceless. That's it.

Speaker 3:

Hey man, I like famous James hey man, I tell you something Opportunities come once in a lifetime and with those opportunities we have to make the most of it. Every one of us have an individual responsibility To go out there and fight for each other. Represent the names on your back. Represent the names that's on your helmet. We don't got no decals, so represent the house, all right. All right.

Speaker 2:

Together. How much that worth.

Speaker 1:

We ain't got no decals Represent the house, Bro it was in the huddle, the dude next to him, the way that he's looking at him and just looks like he's holding in a laugh because he's throwing out some funny shit that's about to be said. I feel like that's how I would feel in that huddle, like just kind of holding in a laugh.

Speaker 1:

Bro, I'm telling you between him and Kirk Cousins, bro, it is funny, man. Tom Brady was approved as a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders. It's huge, it's huge, it's huge. I wonder if he is the first former player. Now. Does Elway have a piece of the Broncos? Is the first former player a piece of the?

Speaker 2:

NFL. I think he might have a piece of the Falcons, Wasn't he a part owner? Who, Michael? Vick Nah bro. I don't Vick Nah bro I don't think he got that bro. It's not even somebody that you would think, bro, I'm trying to figure out what his name is Mork Dunn. There you go. Really, I think so. That's a DJ Reader random quote that may or may not be a fan.

Speaker 1:

Hey, that's sad. Well, yeah, we'll have to fact check that man. We will have to fact check that. We got election day coming up. There's a lot of fact checking. Looks like Tom Brady is the third former player to have an ownership stake in an NFL team.

Speaker 3:

So when the day comes.

Speaker 1:

Deej, that you have your ownership stake in the NFL team. Maybe you go back to Carolina and you help to revive the Carolina Panthers franchise. When you get your ownership stake, what is the first thing that you would do as an owner?

Speaker 2:

Going out and getting a great GM. That's my first hire. Just find a good GM where we think likewise, then I think you handle all the other stuff around the building while you're trusting your GM to start putting the pieces together, coaching staff-wise.

Speaker 1:

I wonder how that process works. Are you just holding interviews with people that come highly recommended, or how are you going to do it?

Speaker 2:

I think, based off how you want the team to go I mean, if you are somebody who has an idea about football, you kind of I think you like you said you just have interviews based off how you feel it should go, I'm sure you I would probably consult with a couple people you know, I don't want to just have only my opinion, even though it's my asset, but probably consult with some folks that I think highly of and go get a good GM, get a good GM While all the stuff around the building hiring those pieces because I'm sure you inherit a couple pieces but trying to make sure those pieces are in play, I need to handle this coaching staff and this coaching search and obviously even inherit players, so we need to be able to make that part work.

Speaker 1:

I love that man. Yeah, I think, uh, as an owner for me, how would I? I would think about, it is number one. We got to have a great team right. We got to win, because it doesn't matter what I do outside of, you know, with the culture of the organization, the other people, the marketing, the fan engagement, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. If we don't win, all the other shit don't matter. So create a winning formula.

Speaker 1:

But then, deej, what I'm doing is I'm getting deep in the brand development of the squad. I'm going to make sure that the fans are super engaged with the team. You know, how are we telling the story of our players, of our ownership of our executive, et cetera? How are we showing up in the community? What's the experience of coming to the stadium? Fans come to practice. What's the experience? I'm getting deep into like experiential shit. And I want the. I want the fans in, uh, in Portland, when the NFL comes to Portland on the Portland fans to be locked in and feel ownership of their team. You know, I want it to be like not just owned by Brandon Scarlett, but owned by the city. That's what I want.

Speaker 2:

Okay, okay, you feel me, I like that, I like that, I like where you're going, I do, I do, I do. Get the fans involved, make them feel empowered, and that way we can turn the city up.

Speaker 1:

Oh, and that way we can turn the city up. Oh yeah, shout out Tom Brady with that minority stake. We'll see what he does with it. Okay, so we just said what we would do as owners of an NFL organization. It is now election week. Okay, what's the first thing you would do as president of the United States? And, secondarily, what teammate would you choose as your vice?

Speaker 2:

president, I would do, I would try to change. I would write a tax bill and try to change the tax bill to where a portion, whether that be property taxes or some sort of tax, goes directly that it's attached to your social security number and it's attached that number's attached to the area that you came from at the beginning when you were born. So wherever that area is in the united states, you know, whatever the area is or where you first when you, when you, migrated here, wherever that area was the first one. I feel like with that, because every area has a millionaire that was born there, I've, I'm a firm believer in that, as a what.

Speaker 2:

As a millionaire, that was born there.

Speaker 1:

Okay, got you.

Speaker 2:

And so I feel that if those taxes were always going towards that area, those areas that started off in poverty would now have been changed by now in every form of way, like from education to the roads, the housing, to everything around it you know what I'm saying Like just the area, the community in general and vice president, you know, I think obviously the easy choice would be like you or my guy, you or my guy Germ, who's the NFL pre-A president right now and is my teammate now, who also a good resistance, I think it goes Sam Hubbard, who's like you know, sam's a finance major and he's pretty smart in that area and he's a pretty smart in that, in that area, and he's also like we're, you know, we, we think similarly, but he'll give me a lot of resistance on a lot of things. I'll say so, I'll get pushback. So I think I need that.

Speaker 1:

I think that's something that's needed, almost having a higher standard on finances similar to being owner a owner of an organization, right, if you want to. I feel like it's probably pretty similar to how you run a country. It's like running an NFL team. Right, you want to make sure that the people that you hire on are high quality folks, right? So, from vice president on down, secretary of state, head of defense, this and that, and all the other positions that go into the government executive, legislative, judicial Come on, now I'll start dropping some, some political history on your ass. I would make sure that I have the most qualified individuals in each of those positions, but also to make sure that those individuals are good people to their core. You know they got good hearts, good souls, and that they care about the interests of the country more than they do the interests of themselves, interests of the country more than they do in the interests of themselves. And also, with those people, I would make sure that I have diverse perspectives and representation because, similar to what you were just saying, with, like, millionaires being taxed and those taxes going back to where they're from, those people have a unique perspective on the area that they're from. Right, so they might, even if they were given some type of like, being able to suggest what could be done in that area with the money that they're taxed. They probably suggest something different than someone who's never visited Greensboro, north Carolina, right. And so I think about that across like regions, across geographies, across different backgrounds, socioeconomic upbringings, et cetera, having a really diverse perspective of folks that are highly qualified and great people down to their core.

Speaker 1:

In my cabinet, that would be the first thing I'd do as president and my vice president would be. For me it would be like how do I make sure that we win? You know, in the same way that Kamala's vice president has come on and supported her and, like, raised voters. I got to be honest. I'm from Portland, oregon, right, one of the most liberal places in the world. So my politics might, you know, maybe more left leaning and so maybe more left leaning voters might be fucking with me.

Speaker 1:

But I got to be conscious, while I also want to make sure I got my moderates and want to be able to flip some people on the right. So I'm going to go and get somebody that may be more leaning to conservatives, so I might bring in old Brian Peters from Midwest Ohio. You know what I mean Working on a farm, the guy will teach you how to you know the proper breath technique, you know. Maybe wear some boots, you know. But he's a good guy, smart guy, good heart down to his core. You know what I mean. So now my team it looks a little bit more representation, but then also we're pulling in as many voters as we can. So I would say BP.

Speaker 2:

There you go and you know we just put it in chat. What's also important about that? Also important about having BP Midwest. You know we just put it in chat. What's also important about that? Also important about having VP Midwest. You know it's important. Those are good people. I love the Midwest people.

Speaker 1:

Shout out to Midwest people they're solid. You're a Midwest person right now.

Speaker 2:

I told you I'm here. I love them. They're the best man you know, caroline. They make solid people. I don't. I love them. They're the best man, caroline. They make solid people. I don't have many complaints about the Midwest. I'm not going to lie. It gets a little chilly up here. I don't even know if you say up here.

Speaker 3:

That is okay.

Speaker 2:

This is a segue. Can we add this in? Why is it called the Midwest when it starts all the way over here? How is it the Midwest? Why does the Midwest last this long? All the way until you get the West Coast? When does the West Coast start?

Speaker 1:

The West Coast is only three states, brother, that's it. So everything in between is the Midwest. No, you got the Mountain West. The Mountain West is like Colorado, idaho, montana, so that's all the West. Well, the West Coast is Washington, oregon, california. Mountain West is anything from the Midwest over to the West Coast.

Speaker 2:

I don't think you're reading this map right, brother. We clearly have the map in front of us. There is no such thing. I know he's adding the mountain on there. I see it's at the bottom. You got specific regions West, Midwest, Northeast and South. Dude, that's the only options we got. We can't just be adding mountain in there. It's a small color. Why does the midwest get the whole thing like? Why is that? Then you got east north central, west north center.

Speaker 1:

nobody says those things bro, you have to understand that as the lands were discovered, the midwest was actually the most west people have at least least the colonizers had been. So they said, oh, that's the West, right. And then they got all the way over to Oregon and California and it was like well, this is now the West. So where we were before, let's call it the Midwest. It's not quite this far West, it's the Midwest. Bro. I get it, because you can't just change up the name. You just can't now just call it the Mideast. You know what I mean. We've come too far. It's been, you know, I don't know, it was probably 100 years or so. They called that the Midwest All right, bro.

Speaker 2:

I'm just glad you could break that down for me. I'm glad you could inform me, because I've been struggling with it and I can't. I've been struggling with it for a minute now. I've just always, when people are like I'm in the Midwest, I'm like I guess you're right, you are right.

Speaker 1:

You're correct. I mean, yeah, at a certain point in time everything was just the whole country was like on the east, so like that's how they considered it, so anything west of the east was west, like if it. If it would have happened that you know what, if, what, if the Europeans had happened upon the west coast before they happened upon the east coast, somehow?

Speaker 1:

right, you think do you think it would be the middle yes, yes, exactly yes, yes, yeah. And the south, and the south would be considered California and Nevada and all that. That'd be crazy, bro, flip it.

Speaker 2:

That'd be more. You got to think of the South all broken down. It's crazy. You learn something every day, bro.

Speaker 1:

Hey, and that's you know, that's why we bring people back to the group chat. You know, because we got we're here to educate, we're here to inform, we're here to inform. And so now we all know, you know why the Midwest is called the Midwest. No need to fact check my theory here, we can just let it ride. Let it ride.

Speaker 2:

Sounds right to me, brother, hell yeah.

Speaker 1:

Hell yeah, hey, that's it. That's all we got D, that's what we got today, man I mean, what else do they want?
