What other actors would you want to see on the show?⬇
This was a great episode.I never knew ed played football. I'd like to see
Another hour or two of him On the couch.
huge ed o'neill fan.
This was the best interview on this show. Ed O’Neil is my favorite actor nobody can play Al Bundy like he did. I didn’t know he was a professional football player. Great show
Is repeating the last thing the other guy just said a Boston thing?
Big Ed and Lil Ed nice!!!!
Even before married with. Children he had done a lot of movies. If you watch reruns, Ed will be on forever.
Awesome
I'm a lifelong Raiders fan, and as much as I hated them because of the immaculate deception and all the moments where it could have gone either way, unless it's 1976 the Raiders were not losing that year
Great episode. Freshman year in college….our scout team was called "F-Troop." We kicked ass over the starters. One of the best scout team names, imo. In a 10 yard dash, no one one could beat me. As a sophomore, i was all league. Quick feet and understanding/anticipation…..wins the day. But had worst coach ever in college. Wrong peeps in wrong positions. You guys touched upon it. I appreciated that. Keep up the good work and tks for letting us all into your world.
Wait how does Edelman not know Bubba Smith? Just when I'm starting to like the guy…
Al Bundy true American role model
7:00 the more things change the more they stay the same guys been getting cut the same way for 50 years lmao
How can you be a fan of Married with Children and not know the Spare tire Dixon episode. 🤔
Staubach is loaded ($) too
Why did they call him spare tire because he was fat . No because he wore one around his neck with a chain
I met O'Neil in the Napa Valley, he signed a football for me and put 4 TDS in one game inscription , Great guy
Ed has become a national treasure.
Best thing I’ve watched since last NFL season.
You guys really got something here.
Man I wish we could (picture in picture) the game though while the discussions are going on.
Very cool. Great job.
The Raiders have all the best games with names. The ghost to the post, the holy roller, the Sea of hands.
Little Giants wasn't a topic???
Ed reminds me of my Dad, probably why I like him so much. Great dude.
Jack Lambert is the best man ever. Back in the late nineties Jack was living in a town nearby to me and he lives next door to a close friend of ours that was in a wheelchair. Jack would now her lawn anytime it started to get out of hand and all he asked for was a hug and cup of tea
I dated his niece when I lived in the suburbs of Youngstown. That’s my claim to faim 😂
as a packer fan its…why…the whatever dolphins
We need a good laugh and direction for these soft men these days.
Damn everyone else if they don’t want to be involved you can do it with just ED and call it Al .
The world needs Bundy to look up to 🤣
Hell I’m probably too much of Al having grown up lol
Why is he sitting like that?
bubba smith? lol you young folks are too funny.
Prime example that stuff thats going on tday in society gets totally magnified because of smartphones.
If we had a ten year period now with 80 car bombings in a smaller city people would be whining about apocolyptic times and going insane.
So that happened 60 years ago, whens the last time anyone has talked about 80 bombings in Youngstown Ohio?
HAHA Julian your team could not survive in the old days of the steelers- CB could actually cover you and get physical… even as small as they were would have smoked you- too tough if the rules were as they were in the 70s- this is just bubble gum now
The farley story had me in tears😂😂😂
This show left me loving both Ed and Jules more than my prior bromances! Great job to the games with names team for supporting and making the whole production so well done. Loved hearing all those great names and teams and times from my childhood long since forgotten.
Julian, I do not think you should be chewing during the show. You do not realize how impressionable it is on our kids. I am actually not against chewing but I just do not think it needs to be done on video by high-profile people.
Amazing episode
Great interview with too many commercials
He’s played some all-time characters
Love the show but you guys need to edit in pictures/videos of the stories. Gang gang
Them talking about Terry Bradshaw being a dog was hilarious
Ed absolutely CRUSHED Donald Sterling in Clipped. He was the best part of the series for sure
The Vikings were the original Bills 😂
