Today we're talking about the peanut punch, okay? So basically, let's get the picture up. Okay, let's get the picture up. Let's get the picture up. This is what happened in football. I'd be like, where am I at? All right. So basically, in the NFL, in the fifth week, we have over 200 fumbles have been recorded. That is the second most in league history. The record was in 2022. So basically, the past few years, people have been fumbling more. Why? Because there's a technique called the peanut punch. The peanut punch! Can we show really quick, you know, our image? Now, we can't afford NFL assets, so, Marce, have you noticed? No. It's AI. I have the number over there. Yeah. It's great from free domain arena. Thank you, ChatGPT, and you can sponsor us anytime if you want, and the NFL can sponsor us, too. So, basically, there's a thing called the peanut punch. I'm going to bring in our regular recurring guest, Polo Asensio. No, no, we can't do it with this. This will always get fumbled. I did play football in Tijuana. I will say this, man. You might be into baseball, but you're built like a center. You know what? I actually played tackle in Tijuana in La Preparatoria in high school. Nice. Shout out to Preparatoria, Fredan, Lázaro Cárdenas, Los Jaguares. Let's go, Tijuana. 100%. So here's what's happening. Now, hold the ball like a running back does. Now, a lot of times when running backs are running, they need to be free, so they're only going to hold it with one hand. So what defenders are doing is instead of trying to pull at it, as you're coming across, they're actually punching the ball, and it causes a fumble so now running backs are having to play with like this and have two hands but you know it's fun to see you know the the fumble happens and then everybody scrambles and then people don't know if the knee went down or what have you it makes the game it makes the game fun and i actually saw this past uh weekend uh running back i think it was chicago that he was trying to go and the ball all of a sudden just got lost okay nobody touched him that's a phantom peanut punch yeah but you're seeing that now so all the defenders are coming in with a punch in it now thank god they're wearing their gear because somebody's got you know i think somebody's gonna break their hand actually they're gonna miss the ball they're gonna get the helmet and they're gonna bring everybody's getting bigger everybody's getting stronger and faster so the running backs need to be a lot stronger a lot smarter and like you said those punches are coming from everywhere and if you have played football you know exactly what happens when you're on the pile you don't want to be at the bottom because a lot of things are said and a lot of things are touched okay when i played football in high school if i ended up at the bottom of the pile i was getting grabbed in all sorts of places i couldn't even tell my mom afterwards
