What humorous banter opens the episode?
limits i'm torn wait a second there's a ron cook fathead next to the bob cutout over there yes do you just notice that it's the first time i've seen it i love it ron looks fantastic so now ron is here and bob is here I don't know where Bob is today. I'm torn here and not on your mustache either. I have a strong opinion of it.
It sucks. I know. I'm not going to let you know why.
It sucks. Don't let others influence your opinion of yourself. Crowley and Doran were strongly trying to influence my opinion of myself. They made fun of it on the radio. They made fun of it off the air even worse. Crowley said you're ugly. I disagree with that. What? Yes. I'm better looking than Crowley. I don't think that's disputable. Sorry, Crowley, my radio mentor. You might be right about that. Why the mustache now limits? You've dabbled in this a couple of different times. What's happening here? Well, so when I went to the Penn State outdoor game, I decided, you know what? Screw it. I'm just going to keep facial hair for like two weeks to help keep extra warm because it feels like temperature was like five degrees.
So I was like, you know what? I'll just keep it and then I'll get rid of it on Monday. So I was shaving yesterday and decided, you know what? Maybe I'm just going to keep the mustache for today, see what it looks like, and then if I don't like it after the show, I'll just get rid of it because my facial hair grows pretty quickly. So it sounds like you're depending on feedback. You're depending on the opinions of others. How do you feel?
What influences our opinions about personal appearance?
Do you like it? Occasionally I do, but occasionally I do not. I woke up this morning and I did not. But in the summer, I do. In the summer, I think it looks better, maybe just depending on the outfits, like with a T-shirt with the mustache. And if I have my hair all styled nice, then I think it looks good. But if everything is not in correct flow, if we're not in sync, Joe, then I don't think it looks great. All right. Somebody texted the other day or, I don't know, commented on YouTube, however they do that. that i look when i wear this hood like marty feldman in young frankenstein do you even know of the movie limits it's an all-time classic frankenstein young frankenstein oh young frankenstein mel brooks it's the mel brooks movie no uh you should watch it i can see the resemblance i'll admit that and here's what i'm torn over what to talk about usually i'm not
But I have bunches of things that I'm passionate about and sort of have been rehearsing takes on. I know the PM guys sometimes put it out on Twitter what they want us to talk about limits. Is that what they want them to talk about? Correct? Correct. Here's your choices. Maybe we could talk about all four. There's no rule against that, is there? Do we have to do old school sports talk where I do a Shakespearean soliloquy to open the show? I don't think so. I think we talked enough Shakespeare yesterday. I don't think I have to. We did do that, didn't we? A whole segment worth. Bob was a Shakespearean scholar, it sounds like, doesn't it? Well, I mean, Bob didn't know that restaurants weren't around in Shakespeare's time.
Yeah, maybe he wasn't. What did our friend Bob know about that? Here's what's rolling around in my head. This Belichick craft thing. Now we learn that craft's not going to be in the Hall of Fame. What the hell is going on here? They had arguably, arguably the greatest dynasty in NFL history. And neither the team owner nor the head coach can get in the Hall of Fame yet? What are we doing here? And I realize they cheated. So maybe that's what we're doing here. We could talk about that. I'd imagine Steelers fans care about that. It may be the late, great L.C. Greenwood who benefits from that. The other thing... Of course, that's rolling around in my head. And if you have the clips that we have of the pronunciation of this man's name, which has become one syllable in this town, it's Will Hard.
Of course, Will Hard is on my mind today. Limits, it's on my mind every day. I get the sense that some people are sick of this and some people can't get enough.
