Philly is greasing the poles for the World Series & High School ref cheats

My name is Jimmy. His name is Jake, and this is the weekly dumb joined by a photographer, the frog photo frog, I forget his name. The comments I can kill him. It's photo frog Philippe, and he's taking pictures of the foliage as we head into November. Hmm. I hate him now. Oh, sorry about that. How was your weekend? How was your, how would you, how do you think your Halloween went? Uh, I don't know. I kind of haven't dressed up. Me and Jess had kind of a sad moment. I was leaving and she's like, happy Halloween. And there's just kind of like an onus on me. Like you should be dressed like more of an idiot right now, but I'll get there as the day goes. Let's go to the sports gym. It's world series season. And we've already had some serious highlights. We had a big comeback down five. Nothing. The Phil's came back. Frambo Valdez doing some, uh, a little of this and people are talking about it. But Jim, I want to talk about greasing up your pole. My good man. They're lubing the pole. It's not grease anymore. That's just in, uh, do you think the state of Philly asked for this? It seems like just marketing by the lube company. They're like, we send 500 gallons of lube to Philly and Philly's like, we're good with the Crisco. They're like the Crisco doesn't work. Our lube works better. Like we already used all the Crisco. If I had to guess, there's a middle management employee that started talking to cam soda and was like, yeah, what's the difference between if we get the sexy lube or the Crisco's that was me working in Philly's general town hall. And then you just got Jim, the light pole. So nobody climbs it. I love that. They have to grease the poles. And if you do that enough, I have a theory. I think if they don't grease the poles, people stop climbing them. The grease is the challenge. Grease is the challenge. No one, if they just can climb every pole, then there's no conquest to it. Every single pole will have people on it. And then there's no like, look, that guy did it. It's just so you don't care about this statement from city officials. Grease light poles are harder to climb when lubed up. I agree. Right. And if he's no grease, there's no applause for climbing the pole. And then what happens? Nothing. They stop climbing the poles. They're bored. They start climbing other stuff. If cam soda sees this and wants to send us some lube. Yeah, we'll do a blind taste test with it. Jim, speaking of lubing yourself up and watching baseball. Game one premiered last night. Blitz ball battle. It's pretty awesome. Almost a breakdown, Jake. This one is a big story. Yes. I might do a real full length breakdown because I just found the full game and it's kind of interesting. These high school refs, actually this one high school ref cheated like blatantly. It's fourth and seven for Eastern. Who's playing Vineland's good game, New Jersey's five, a state championship, invitational Turkey Bowl is something so dumb. It's honestly closer to that than you think. Yeah. It was like, I was like, what's this game? A lot of letters. It's fourth and seven in the fourth quarter and Eastern is going for it. They're down and they don't get it. And the um, um, baseball guy and the ref, he's like, I got this. He sends everyone off, like get the chains. The announcers are the best part. Cause they're like, I don't think they got it. Stretch them chains, like rooting for him to get it. Stretch that baby. There we go. Give it a good pool. And then they, the guy stretches the chain as far as it can. And, uh, the head refs like, nah, just like bring those back in. And you know what? The ball was actually here first down. Yeah. The announcers go, Oh no. Oh no. And then the second voice goes, what? A good, what is always good. Montage of Joe's saying what for 20 seconds straight. Sorry. Just the one from the apple picking more. What? And, uh, now these refs are not allowed to ref playoff games anymore. They're like, we looked into it. We're not going to give him any playoff games. A regular season. We still kind of need some bodies, but playoff games. These guys are out for clearly. Clearly cheating. They scored a touchdown after that. They're like, it didn't affect the game because Vineland still won. It's like, well, it did. Cause they scored a touchdown game. Affected the kid. It affected the wait. Drafting sports book. Really, really good place to make money on sports. Uh, Jim, the more sports as the nipple rolls on, as we head towards nipple season, we had a fun one, a game that looked awful on the map, Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers. It starts going a little kooky at the end of the game. And then we get a hail Mary slinging it downfield. There's DJ more trade rumors around him. Diving. Awesome. Throw. Awesome. Catch Walker to more to win the game. Takes his helmet off. Oh no. Illegal. That's a penalty. We move the extra point back. It's a little deeper. Our guy, Eddie Pinheiro turns on it a little bit and it's, Oh, and everyone points at DJ more. And they're like, Hey, you can't do that. Which is kind of BS. Like it's, I don't know, leave your helmet on your helmet. I'll show the world who you are after a good touchdown. It's not like you're taunting anyone safety. They go to overtime after that. Kicker Eddie Pinheiro gets another shot at a closer field goal. Shankopotamus real tough scene for your Panthers. Now they're two and six. They would have been three and five. Does that make a difference in their division at all? They would have been three and five and in first place in their division, because it's a poopy division. Birdle leave your helmet on. Them's the rules. The rules are meant to be broken. A lot of concussions and suicides. The sprints. Or the team's sprinting up and down the field to get to train. Yeah. Did you hear that? Jim, this not sports is something that you've been trying to get on here all year, and this time it worked out. You know what? This is a story that usually we'd say, nah, but I'm saying, yeah, there are potatoes in the Halloween bucket and I'm pro this story. So what's going on is this guy who's Irish and Ireland, he would just put one potato in the bucket of candy in front of his house. See what would happen. That seems like something I'd love to do. I kind of did this when I was little. And then he realized some kids would take the potato and turn around and like, you know, play it up, play into the gag. I got a potato and be all excited. And now he's become known as the potato house. And he gets to give out the potato man, the potato man. So now. I'm kind of lost interest because this dude who's like head of marketing for potatoes, USA, John Toastburn is like, this is a great idea. I'm going to do it to go, but the dude you're in it for the long haul. Your life is potatoes. The original guy, Mr. Potato, he was just having fun with the neighborhood, just a gag. So I like it. I like putting something weird in the bucket and seeing if kids will take it. That's fun. Not like, but not like bad. Not like a knife. I gave away big baking potatoes. And before I knew it, it took on a life of its own. Who would have thought? Not me. Last segment of the show. ASMR. Jimmy's got a boner now. Breezy Halloween night. Employee of the week. Says Peter Moorland's jeans. We did a we did a clothing swap this weekend in Peter swap jeans, which he's a six three two hundred something pound man. I'm a six foot flat one hundred eighty pound man. And for us to switch jeans like that, it was like cookie. You say cookie or cookie? That's the great debate. Congrats to Peter Moorland and not Trevor Ploof. No, no, that's not where he would get mean. I wanted to give it to Trev. And you said no. As the Peter Moorland special. Thanks, everyone.

Thank you very much. I'm dressing up buckets for the first for the first time in a while because I have a kid now, so it's kind of like dressing up as a pit crew. We have like a little car and he's going to be a race car driver. And me and Katie are in pit crew jumpsuits. Nice. Pretty easy. I hate Halloween. I love Halloween. I hate dressing up. I love Halloween. I hate dressing up. Soon as I get to be the person at the door just giving candy, I'll be happy. Buckets.
