[MELTON] What’s going on y’all Mad Max here first day. We’re going to make it a good one man. I’m happy to be here. Let’s get to work. [BENSON] We don’t get no breaks we’ll still be working. [CARTER] They’re going to be here. We’re going to be here. [BENSON] I’m going to be here. He’s going to be here. [CARTER] I’m going to be here. [TRAINER] Get it out y’all. Last chance [BENSON] Man, me and Zay we are going to be beat these boys they’re too little. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] I was waiting for me to get here, me look- This is what’s going down today. We’re going to take over the bowling. [BENSON] It’s a 2-2 2 vs 2 It’s roommate versus roommate. We’re going to see who’s finna to win though. [JONES] Strike! [BENSON] A little too much spin on that one? [BENSON] Oh my god! [MELTON] Y’all think I got that? Come on now. Left, left, left. [BENSON] Marvin, hold on let me go again with Marv. What’re you going to do? What’re you going to do Marv? Okay, that’s 8 though like, I thought it was going to be a gutter. [JONES] Nah, y’all finna lose. [BENSON] You finna lose. You finna lose. You about to lose though. You about to lose though. You about to lose though! [MELTON] We here today we here today, on my soul. [BENSON] Yo, watch out though, Yo! Get out of my lane. Damn, am I going to be the one to not have ten! Bro why my- curving so much, like [MELTON] Hey, you see how we start I started us out good I started us out good. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] I said it when I walked in I come to play. They think I be lying, look at the scoreboard I ain’t even done yet. [BENSON] There we go, baby. I’m back. [WEAVER] Knock ‘em down. [BENSON] I’m back. [MELTON] I ain’t like it. I ain’t like it. I ain’t like it. I ain’t like it. I might be folding. Don’t worry about it Rab- Don’t worry about it. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] I’m the best. I… am… the best. [MELTON] So for the most part, we teamed up with our roommates. You feel me? Started off strong, but I let off a little bit. But my team came a second, though. I think Rabbit and JD came in first. Me and Elijah came in second, so we did good. It’s the best ever bowled. I bowled a 134, which is supposedly not that good, but I thought it was good. We’re at the food bank, checking in, ready to help some, people out. We got about 1,300 bags we got to fill. Let’s do it. Let’s fill them up. [ADAMS] All right. That’s what I’m talking about Xavier. [ADAMS] Let’s do it. [VOLUNTEER] Offense versus defense. Offense versus defense. [ADAMS] Duh. [ADAMS] I thought it was a pretty smooth execution by the offense coach Drew, if you’re seeing this, we got a dub for you. Yeah. Shoutout my man, Tip really was bagging them up. It’s time to really work now. You good brother? [ADAMS] I know Christian’s working. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] So look, we get a little one one little corn. For me though, I’m a- I’m a big carrot guy. You know me right, Rab. So I would get two but we only getting one right now. It’s the most important part, under under again, bag secured. [ADAMS] It’s funny because I remember back in the day my mom would come here, come to the food bank, whip up a whole meal, [ADAMS] All this talking and not bagging? Alright, alright. Getting to know the guys and helping out in the community. A lot of us come from different places, and I don’t think anyone’s from Arizona. But to do stuff like this, you get a feel for the community for sure. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] Hey, look, hey, there’s bags on, bags on food bank bag over here, baby. [ADAMS] So, you know, draft day was a obviously huge accomplishment and a really fun time for me and my family. Huge celebration. But then you get right back to work, you get humbled. You’re the young guy now. You go from being the guy after college, that everyone looks up to, to looking up to guys and I’m excited to learn and just get better. Alright, we rolling now. We rolling, it’s a flow. It’s a flow. Skee. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] So look, the question of the day is right out out of 500 balls to get on base, how many balls you think you hitting? Me, superior athlete, I said about 10. I say about 10 to 20. [BENSON] I was a baseball player back in the day. So, I know forms and I know, I know when it’s going to be a good pitch. It is not going to be a good pitch from neither one of them, you gone see. [ROBINSON] Aim high? I’m not going to lie. I threw the first pitch at the Rangers game one time like they’re finna have a really cool moment. It’s so cool, man. Throwing a ball out, [HARRISON JR.] Hey D-Rob you’re throwing first. [HARRISON JR.] Yeah, I’ll put a hat on. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] Y’all make us proud man, because you’re going on my social media regardless. [HARRISON JR] He’s throwing first. [ROBINSON] He’s going first. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] Yeah Marv! [HARRISON JR.] Who am I throwing to? Yeah Marv! [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] Why is he so close? Uh-oh Put a hole in the glove! We’ll take it. We’ll take it big fella! We’ll take it big fella! [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] So look, okay Marv, you know Marv did what I thought Marv was going to do, just because, he’s got the athletic-build type, you know, lanky, so he can throw a good ball. D-Rob, I was scared I’m not going to lie, I was a little bit because I didn’t know how he was going to throw it. But then he threw a good ball, though, so. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] What flavors you got? [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] Yeah, that’s cool. That’s cool. That’s cool. That’s cool. That’s cool. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] We just want ranch. What, you like blue cheese? [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] I’m setting a standard here. We shouldn’t be eating blue cheese around here. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] Look how fast that ball get in there bro, I can’t even blink that fast. I’m not going to lie, they throwing that ball kind of fast. I changed my mind about that 500 pitches. I think I’d be too scared to swing. Come on. This thing kind of heavy man. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] Still don’t know how you be doing this all day. Let me see the- Oh yeah. Oh, yeah. Yo, this the coolest dude in our class right here. Not going- No this the coolest dude. [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] Say something nice for the camera-man [TAYLOR-DEMERSON] Okay. Nice and sweet, huh? Short and sweet. Alright, I’m done now. My arms hurting.
