·45 min·4 clips

Would you tattoo Michael Conforto's face on your neck for $100,000?

The episode begins with a humorous debate about whether one would get a tattoo of baseball player Michael Conforto on their neck for $100,000, touching on personal preferences like turtlenecks. The conversation shifts to weather in California before focusing on sports. The hosts discuss the LA Clippers beating the Minnesota Timberwolves and note the team's unprecedented NBA feat of being 15 games under .500 and later getting back over .500. They highlight Kawhi Leonard's performance and the team's improvement after trading Chris Paul and James Harden. A significant segment analyzes the LA Lakers, with the hosts suggesting the team looks better without LeBron James, citing improved play from others like DeAndre Ayton and concerns about chemistry. They mention Luke Kennard possibly protecting his three-point percentage by not shooting. The episode includes a 'Last Man Standing' game where the hosts guess the top-selling candy bars of all time, revealing Snickers as number one and surprises like Cadbury and Toblerone. Later, Travis Rodgers criticizes Team USA baseball manager Mark DeRosa for not knowing World Baseball Classic rules, leading to a loss to Italy, and for his defensive response. The hosts discuss Clayton Kershaw's limited role and the appointment of DeRosa as manager. The episode concludes with 'Shop Talk,' covering birthdays like Liza Minnelli and historical events such as Coca-Cola's first bottle sale and Wonder Woman's TV debut, alongside brief sports notes.
