Craig Carton (0:01)

Guys, we have the Pigs coming up at 6 o'clock, or as close as we can get to it, on tonight's game. And then of course, tomorrow, they got the three-pack for you.

Two of them are off to a pretty good start. You got, I guess, I think kind of, I know Michael Pennox is starting for Atlanta tonight. Tonight's game is more about, what are the Green Bay Packers doing?

Chris McMonigle (0:21)

Well, I mean, their offensive line is just devastated by it. They were talking this week, I don't know if they'll do it, but they were talking earlier in the week about having their tight end Kraft be part of the offensive line. That's how bad they're dealing with offensive line injury going against this Falcons team, which the Falcons team, like, they have weapons. Like, they have weapons. London's a good wide receiver. Robinson's arguably the best running back in the sport.

Their tight end has never been what he was promised coming out of Florida, but he's a decent, like, weapon at tight end. Like, they should be better, but they are godawful.

Craig Carton (0:54)

Did you happen to see the douche-knuckle, self-appointed moral compass of the world and what he did yesterday? Mr. Gregg Popovich, former coach of the Spurs, who I can't stand on every level.

Chris McMonigle (1:10)

Congratulations is in order, correct?

Craig Carton (1:12)

Yeah. So for 20 years, Mike Budenholzer was his assistant. OK, won a bunch of championships together, OK?

Chris McMonigle (1:19)

Yep.

Craig Carton (1:21)

Budenholzer has moved on. He coaches elsewhere now, as you know. OK.

Gregg Popovich married his ex-wife.

There's just something wrong about that. And look, they got divorced back in 2016

Chris McMonigle (1:34)

Right. So it's been a long 10 years later.

Craig Carton (1:37)

But it just, you know full well that that means, while they were married, Popovich had an eyeball on her ass.

Chris McMonigle (1:47)

Or at least found her attractive and funny and whatever else.

Craig Carton (1:49)

And I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with the former Mrs. Budenholzer to fall in love with Gregg Popovich.

Chris McMonigle (1:58)

Love is love, Craig.

Craig Carton (1:59)

Is it though?

Chris McMonigle (2:00)

Love is love.

Craig Carton (2:00)

Like, he's not healthy.

Chris McMonigle (2:02)

No.

Craig Carton (2:02)

He's not attractive.

Chris McMonigle (2:04)

He's an older, I mean.

Craig Carton (2:04)

But he also, I think he had, I think he had like a bad stroke as well.

Chris McMonigle (2:08)

Like, he's not healthy. No, he's not healthy.

Craig Carton (2:10)

They thought he might have, like he was close.

Chris McMonigle (2:12)

Yeah.

Craig Carton (2:13)

And now he's marrying his former assistant head coach's ex-wife.

Chris McMonigle (2:17)

How long have they been together?

Craig Carton (2:18)

I ain't got no idea.

Chris McMonigle (2:19)

Maybe it's like kind of like 77 Marry me before.

Craig Carton (2:23)

Before I croak?

Chris McMonigle (2:23)

Yeah.

Craig Carton (2:24)

She must be in it for the dough, I guess, huh?

Right? Like, I don't know. I just saw a guy that tries to preach to everybody how to live life the right way. You were coveting your assistant's wife for years and just waited for the right moment to start banging her. That seems odd.

Chris McMonigle (2:44)

I guess that's a way to put it.

Craig Carton (2:45)

Yeah. It's been 10 years. I can tell everyone I've been banging her.

Chris McMonigle (2:48)

Maybe they were friends.

Craig Carton (2:49)

I want to be cheated on her while they were together. That'd be an interesting story.

Chris McMonigle (2:54)

But doesn't he have health issues, though? He had a stroke. Yeah.

Craig Carton (2:57)

But he, unfortunately, he looked really bad the last couple years.

Chris McMonigle (3:01)

No, he's not in great shape. There's no doubt about it.

Craig Carton (3:04)

He didn't look well.

Chris McMonigle (3:05)

Hopefully, he's on the mend on some level.

Craig Carton (3:07)

But what a dog, though, right? I don't know. I'm sure Mike's moved on.

Chris McMonigle (3:11)

If it was a year later, I would definitely... It's a decade.

Craig Carton (3:14)

Let me tell you something. If I got divorced and even a decade later, you thought that you were going to get in on that? Yeah. You're dead to me.

Chris McMonigle (3:27)

Dead to you?

Craig Carton (3:28)

Yeah. It's a guy code. I don't care how long you've been divorced. You don't go after your partner's former wife or current wife, obviously.

There's something wrong about that in my world. Because it means to me, when we're having family barbecues, and I had you guys over to the crib for a little Friday night, couple's night, it means that you were coveting her when I was married there.
