Put the two toes down. Two toes is enough for a completed. What about shoelaces? What do we do with shoe laces? Nope. If you untie your shoe, does that count? That would be really dangerous. I think you'd have a lot of players out of there. Really long shoelaces? Like four or five feet long? What's his? What's his face? The quarterback could come back. Drag the lace. From Michigan. Denard Robinson? Yeah. What do you have a shoe lace catch? No, he always played with his shoes untied. Why did he do that? I don't know. That's like Mike. You know how many times in the last five or six years I've gone, Mike, your shoes untied? And he's like, yeah. That's the style. During a pickleball game. Yeah, that was. Yeah, I do it on purpose. No, I don't do it on purpose. That's because the shoe just won't stay tied. And I'm like, you give up. You give up right in the minute. That's what that is. You won't double, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I've been defeated. You said I'm not going to double not like there's some problem. I got to go way down there. You're.

56:01 ↗

You're anti double knot? I don't want to double not the shoes, man. What's wrong with the double knot? That's like so. When I'm doing sports, you know what I do? Double not? So that your shoes aren't untied during the match. Right. Yeah. Look, some people want to be a dork. You lost your fantasy week on that Alave catch, no catch? It cost me a week. And how did you feel about that play? Was it a catch to you? It was a catch and I just, I get to join you in sadness, Andy, this week. See, I completely see what Andy is saying on the intellectual honesty. When I saw the play, I thought no catch. But I thought no catch based upon the rules. He didn't get a third. It was two feet, no football move. It was three feet. Go watch it. No, I watched it this morning after you said that. And I almost commented back, but I knew you were having a hard morning. So I just left it B. But, yeah. It was three. And his knee hit the ground after the two.

56:59 ↗

If the knee hit, yeah, I'll watch you again. Agree to disagree. Two full steps and then falling to the ground where, yes, your legs do hit the ground when you fall to the ground, didn't complete it through. But by rule, I didn't, like when it was being reviewed, I thought that won't be a catch. So I wasn't surprised when it was overturned. But by did the human being catch this football like that rule, yeah, I believe he caught the ball. So, you know, you go to the. the rules if you can, but I just don't know that you're ever going to be able to get it perfect. Yeah, that's because they use language like perform any act common to the game after the catch. Falling down is very common to the game. So by that rule. I mean, literally, that's how it's written up. It's perform any act common to the game. Tuck the ball away, extend it forward, take an additional step, turn up field, avoid or ward off an opponent.

and maintains the ball while he does that. What if we just had like a child in the booth? And he go, hey, kid. Was that a catch? Did he catch that? Every game. And then the kid will go, yeah. It'll be really easy. A child. That's actually a really good. The catch child. The one. And then you only get the one. You get two, you get like a two year window of being the catch child. Because eventually that child's going to be big headed and he's going to start questioning himself. You'll get a skeptical. Yeah. It's got to be young enough. I'm thinking like four, five, you're out at six. Well, you have to, they have to be able to catch themselves. That's fair. That is absolutely fair. To know what a catch is. Yes. And once they know.

58:37 ↗

They can be brought up to the booth and paid big money to be the catch child. The catch child is the future. I just want this catch child to have to be talking to the referees through the headset and the booth. From his catch child drone. Catch child. It's attached. It just goes over the loudspeaker. Catch. Yeah, they don't have the main ump announced that they go, okay, we're going to go to the catch child. He did not catch the ball. No. Dropsies. Perfect. I think we solved the NFL. Yeah.
