The VAR Guy says: That must have been an amazing experience! We shudder to think how long the plane ride must have been, though.

The VAR Guy says: "We were heartbroken when "Breaking Bad" ended, so getting to see Saul Goodman in his own series was music to our ears.
DaCosta: I wanted to be a garbage collector!
The VAR Guy says: It may be a dirty job, but hey, at least there's the chance of finding hidden treasure! You know what they say about one man's trash…
DaCosta: "The Shawshank Redemption." This movie was well written and well directed, plus it had a great story.
