00:00 How are you feeling after this debut episode of HBO's Hard Knocks?
00:06 Well I have a bunch of hot takes so we'll get through those and then I will rate because I
00:12 don't want to you know make it come out like I'm jaded but I will say to open the episode
00:20 I thought it was a really weird analogy between the crow and the eagle. Did you find Sellers like
00:27 meeting weird? Even before that the actual open with the nostalgic footage of Broadway Joe
00:36 I thought that was pretty cool. Yeah no that was great. I enjoyed that open but yeah the story I
00:45 think Sala was reaching a little bit there you know it definitely I mean you're taking
00:56 another team's mascot name and using it as one of your examples and I you know like I don't know I
01:03 thought that he could have just came up with a better. It was a little bit of a stretch I would
01:08 say it's a little bit of a stretch I guess what he was trying to say was that you're going to have
01:14 these crows pecking at you but you have to rise high enough where you suffocate them essentially
01:24 and you're not gonna you know the way you're gonna beat them is to by taking the high road
01:30 so to speak you know and by tuning out the distractions but I don't know yeah the whole
01:37 metaphor whatever that was there it was it was a little strange without a doubt and I think it was
01:45 kind of a reach and I don't know.
