The Rush: “Happy” Anniversary, recruiting J.J. Watt and a Quayspiracy

The Rush celebrates the 25th anniversary of the movie Happy Gilmore, including a few hijinks from the original cast. In the NFL, Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins and Steelers WR JuJu Smith-Schuster try recruiting J.J. Watt… via Instagram! Plus, after having surgery on his non-throwing shoulder, Jared thinks former Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence is up to something fishy... It’s a Quayspiracy theory that you won’t want to miss!

Video Transcript

ADAM SANDLER: Shooter McGavin, this is for you. And I'm not lying to you. That is smashed. Smashed. And that went pretty well. You're dead, Shooter. Hah, hah, hah, hah.

JARED QUAY: 25 years after beating Shooter McGavin for the tour championship, Happy Gilmore has still got it. As Happy would say--

BEN STILLER: Somebody's closer.

JARED QUAY: And Shooter McGavin actually responded. Well, Christopher McDonald, the actor who played Shooter did. And he wasn't letting Adam Sandler off the hook that easy.

CHRISTOPHER MCDONALD: Nice drive, Gilmore. 25 years, huh? Let's see if it's Shooter's tour. Check it out. Money! Shooter's still got it.

JARED QUAY: Even Ben Stiller joined in on the anniversary fun.

HAL: Why do you that to me, huh? Why do make me act like that in front of everybody, huh? Mr. Gilmore? Hey. Toity's straight down to the right, dear.

JARED QUAY: The celebration was missing one thing though.

HAPPY GILMORE: Now you're going to get it, Bobby.

[SHOCK AND ASTONISHMENT]

JARED QUAY: Bob Barker is 97 years old. So a rematch probably isn't in the cards. "Happy Gilmore," what a movie. Yeah, that should have won an Oscar.

Between the winter storm and the disastrous Texans, the City of Houston ain't doing so well. Three-time Defensive Player of the Year JJ Watt is headed out of Houston. And DeAndre Hopkins made a very subtle pitch for him on the Gram, trying to get his former teammate to join him in Arizona. Yeah, I'm kidding about the subtle part.

- No.

JARED QUAY: JJ could do worse. Kyler Murray on offense, hanging out in old town Scottsdale, and year round sunshine? But peek this comment in Hopkins' post though. Yep, it's JuJu Smith-Schuster trying to ante up and get Watt to come to the Steelers. I see your former teammate, and I raise you your brothers.

Yo, that's some serious interference. But well played, well played. We'll just have to wait and see where Watt ends up.

I could have sworn Trevor Lawrence was going to end up the number 1 overall draft pick this year, but the quarterback had surgery on his non-throwing shoulder yesterday and it's put his status a little murky as number 1 overall. So I think I smell a "Quay-spiracy."

The Jaguars have the number 1 pick, but they have to at least consider someone else with this surgery. Or at least that's what Lawrence wants them to think. Aha! I'm onto you, Trevor Lawrence. See, the Jets were trying to tank for Trevor, but they messed up by winning a few games. So now it's Trevor's turn to tank for the Jets.

He loves trying to get that endorsement cheddar. And you tell me where there's more money-- a team in the biggest city in the United States or a team in Jacksonville where they may not even be in the next three to five years. Plus, you get a two for one with the Jets-- New York and New Jersey.

Or you go to a state that could secede from the Union any day now. Now I can see all of this is factual. But I still feel it in my gut, which means it's probably true. And this is just a "Quay-spiracy."
