Are You Okay with This?

**Nigel** (0:04)
Are you really okay with this?

**Hammer** (0:06)
Are you okay? Everything's going to be okay.

**Nigel** (0:10)
Are you okay?

**Hammer** (0:11)
Yeah, I'm fine.

**Nigel** (0:13)
I'm pretty far from okay. Are you okay with this? On The Hammer and Nigel Show. Okay. Hammer ESPN has released the new song. It's called High Noon. High Noon is performed by Shibuzy and Gunna.
Shibuzy and Gunna.

**Hammer** (0:38)
I think they're auditioning for the midday show here at WIBC. Nine to noon, Shibuzy and Gunna.

**Nigel** (0:43)
All right, let's play the anthem for this season of ESPN's College Football.
What do you think? You okay with this?

**Hammer** (1:17)
I'm all right with this.
This isn't the theme song to College Game Day. Let me make this totally clear. College Game Days, the preeminent, premier college football pregame show on ESPN, has been for years. That's Kirk Herbstreet and Pat McAfee and the gang.
Usually, they open up with a cover of Big and Rich's Come Into Your City, which is what you and I use when we promote our live shows. That's not what this is. This is what they're going to use when they're promoting college football coverage, maybe playing this in the background as they're talking about a game coming up. I'm all right with it. You know why? It could be something from Clay Aiken, but it means football is close. College football is close this month. Later this month, we will have meaningful college football games, I believe. NFL training camps are getting underway.

**Nigel** (2:11)
Now, is it meaningful just because you'll be placing bets on them?

**Hammer** (2:14)
Yes.
Yes. Yes. Yes.
But keep in mind, in college, they don't do this ridiculous preseason crap, right? They just schedule ridiculously easy games. Every once in a while, you'll get a good matchup, a good non-conference matchup. But in this day and age of the playoff, like, I think you have seen the Kurt Signetti schedule. Let's be honest. It's not the most challenging thing in the world. But then you get into conference play and it's a gauntlet.

**Nigel** (2:42)
Oh, yeah.

**Hammer** (2:43)
So listen, meaningful games, meaningful bets. College football. I love college football Saturdays, man. Like for me, college football Saturdays almost more enjoyable than NFL Sundays. Whoa, because games come on at noon. And then depending on how your gambling day is going, you always got that Hawaii kickoff. If Hawaii has a home game, that bad boy doesn't kick off till 11 o'clock. You still got a chance to win your money back.

**Nigel** (3:13)
Are you allowed to talk about what you have to do leading up to college football with them? Are you allowed to talk about this? Do you know what? Yes, I'll know where I'm going.

**Hammer** (3:23)
I'm going to own up to it here.

**Nigel** (3:25)
OK, so what you have to do is penance in anticipation of your, you know, taking up all day watching college football. What do you have to do leading up to that in the household in the hammer household?

**Hammer** (3:37)
So Mrs. Hammer, coupon lady, basically said, look, I understand when football season starts, I lose you for the weekend.
So we're getting close to that. So here's what you're going to do on Sundays moving forward. She's going to make an awesome meal, which is great.

**Nigel** (3:53)
Wow.

**Hammer** (3:54)
But then I have to sit down and watch a Disney movie of her choice. Now, this started last night.

**Nigel** (4:00)
It started last night was night number one of this.

**Hammer** (4:03)
I love this. I missed the end of the royal, I'm sorry, of Summer Slam, the WWE event yesterday because I had to watch Sleeping Beauty.
Now, that's a Sunday night. I'm for it. Good for Crystal.

**Nigel** (4:20)
Like the original one. Oh, yeah. The cartoon.

**Hammer** (4:23)
Now, the good news is these classic Disney animated things are usually only like an hour and 15 minutes.

**Nigel** (4:30)
But she won't make you watch like three in a row.

**Hammer** (4:33)
No, just one.

**Nigel** (4:34)
OK.

**Hammer** (4:34)
But I can't be on my phone and I have to be locked in and have an opinion of the movie and give my review. Of the Disney movie.

**Nigel** (4:45)
I love it.

**Hammer** (4:46)
Food.

**Nigel** (4:47)
Yeah, you get a free meal.

**Hammer** (4:49)
You get a good home with your beautiful wife. Oh, wham. And she ties the meal into the movie. So I guess in Sleeping Beauty, which I had never seen prior to last night, there's a scene where there's a big elaborate feast and this big fat king guy's got chicken legs. So she made chicken legs. And apparently, I was the big fat guy eating them.
