On today's part of my take, presented by DraftKings, we've got them. Tony Romo on the pod. Incredible interview. I'm going to say must listen.
Here we go, Jim. Oh!
Tony Romo going into it, we're like, hey, we've talked a lot of shit about this guy. This could go one of two ways. Well, it went the good way because we told him we talked a lot of shit and he was like, that's cool. And then we had an awesome discussion for like 45 minutes about football, golf, everything. Really, really cool guy. So Tony Romo, great interview. We're going to do the Mount Rushmore of guys we want to see ride a horse. That will be after Tony Romo, before Tony Romo. We had a great sports weekend. A lot to recap. We're about to be in our dead zone week with All-Star break here for baseball. But we had UFC. We had World Cup. We have the baseball All-Star break. We have some NBA free agency.
LeBron has still not picked the team, even though it is the Cavs. And we're going to get to all of that after we talk about Mountain Dew. Summer's coming. Summer's here. And I can't wait to crack open... An ice cold Mountain Dew. Look, I got the new cans, the American Dew cans. They're so, so good. Nothing goes better with grilling outside, hanging in your backyard, on a boat, on a golf course, and hanging with your friends than refreshing citrus kick of Mountain Dew. Mountain Dew is proudly born in the foothills of Tennessee. Enjoy the refreshing citrus kick of Mountain Dew, an American original. I'm going to take a sip right here. absolutely delicious so go get a Mountain Dew today American Dew grab a Dew tasting great since 48 we got a lot of summer left we got a lot of golf we got Camp Barstool coming up with Mountain Dew so go get a Mountain Dew today tasting great since 48 grab a Dew okay let's go hey
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Welcome to part of my take presented by DraftKings. The crown is yours. Today is Monday, July 13th, and Conor McGregor is back. And Conor McGregor is no longer back. It was that fast, boys. We have a lot to get to, but UFC 239, oh boy. I got to be honest, I stopped watching after Patty the Batty. That was my main event of the night. Hank, our UFC expert, Patty the Batty was electric. Patty the Batty is the next star of the UFC. I was going to say, Patty the Batty could have won by submission four times in the time that we've been doing part of my take right now. It was over right when it started. But Conor McGregor, did he pull a Jose Canseco versus Billy Football? The discussion is going like wildfire right now because we've got angles of Conor McGregor warming up.
If you missed the fight and you're not a UFC fan, it's a big deal that Conor McGregor is back. Huge, huge deal. First time in five years. A lot of money on the line. I think he got paid like $30 million. He came out. He threw one kick and then immediately slipped, then slipped again, and then... 15 seconds into the fight, it was over because he tore his ACL, which he might have torn in training. And now we have to ask, was this all just set up for a cash grab? Conor McGregor knowing that he was hurt and never going to be able to actually fight. Yes. 100%. I've been going back and I did watch his walkout and I've been watching like this Pruder film like slow-mo. He does seem to be favoring his leg in the walkout.
Now I also saw the video of him throwing a kick and it looks like you can see the knee exploding as he's throwing the kick during the fight itself.
