  • In this clip from Episode 140, Mike Alstott doesn't hold back on what he thinks about the NFL players today and how soft they are.
    FULL EPISODE HERE: • Mike Alstott | Bussin ...
    -----
    Get on the bus with NFL players Will Compton & Taylor Lewan! The Boys are letting you in on their hilarious, high-energy (and often heartfelt) conversations. Topics range from exclusive stories to active player perspectives to out-of-left-field hot takes on things you and your friends only discuss behind closed doors. Sometimes they chat with a guest, sometimes it's just the two of them, but it's always a good time when you're Bussin' With The Boys.
    And yes, this is the podcast where Mike Vrabel said he'd cut his piece off for a Super Bowl.

In a mic'd up of the game you can hear Lynch and Brooks stating "they are calling EVERY play that Gruden told us about"..... Gruden didn't do crap but pass them a cheat sheet.

    Mike was friends with a dude that lived in my building at Purdue. He would come over while we were playing hacky sack high as shit in the parking lot and would always linger for a bit and watch us play until we said "Hey Mike, you wanna play?" And he'd smile and say "Nah, I'm good". We'd give him shit as he walked away and he'd laugh about it...good dude...never big timed any of us.

There was this lunch room, and they had a gentleman who would cook us Cuban sandwiches in the adjacent hall. Mr. Mike Alstott would intentionally wait until we were done with our work breaking the field down, Ann’s we got our sandwiches or lunch and eat lunch with us after everyone left; tell us that he appreciated our work.
