One could see Molly remind the hosts that this was a debate show, that it was early in the morning and that people didn’t want to listen to arguments before they have their coffee.
Will Forte, then joins the trio, playing the role of a sports blogger. His opinion differs from both Irvin and Stephen A, and claims that Tom Brady is “Very, Very Exceptional”.

Introducing a new topic for debate, Molly asks, “Brady: Back Against the Wall or Chip on His Shoulder?”
There is still disagreement between the debaters. According to Stephen A., “Brady plays with a chip on his shoulder”, but Irvin believes, “Brady plays with his back against the wall.”
Debate expanding beyond the ‘fields’
Molly brings in yet another hilarious topic for debate, “Apples or Oranges?” Stephen A. responds that he has thought about this question his whole life, and concludes, “It‘s apples.” In contrast, Irvin favors “Oranges”, as expected. Finally, to conclude the video, Molly sends the guests for a quick break.
Stephen A. treated this video with good humor and even retweeted it.
