Let’s face it – every day we are routinely bombarded with questions. When you’re an emerging media company in Nashville, people just want to know what your opinions are on everything. It’s only natural. And, since our duty is to serve the people, well, we have no choice but to be present. That’s the SoBro Way. Also, aren’t mailbags just a barrel of laughs anyway? Welcome to the newest weekly recurring feature up in this bitch: The SoBros Mailbag. As always, use #SoBrosMailbag to hit us up on Twitter.
Question:
Well looks like I’ll go ahead and send in my #SobrosMailbag question early! What super heroes are we from the Marvel Universe!? Also which super hero would @8e919e050f44470 be?

Answer:
We’ll start with you, Brent, and you’re as Captain America as anyone on GMN, so you get the nod. Neil is Iron Man if for no other reason than his snark alone. Nikki is definitely Thor – no one else is worthy. Bromondo is the Hulk – can totally see him becoming a monster when he’s hangry. Breslow as Spider-Man is too perfect – the sneaky good humor, and he’s just built like he’d be nimble swinging from building to building. Brie is Black Widow because I legitimately believe she can whip somebody’s ass with her bare hands. Maura is Doctor Strange because she could easily be a wizard. The Plush is Ant-Man because he’s super fun but there’s a little bit of “this guy might’ve served time” to him.
And, of course, Dallas can be Black Panther – ’cause….I don’t know. I don’t know Dallas….but Black Panther has fucking claws, so why wouldn’t anyone want to be Black Panther? Is that everyone? Do we have our GMN Avengers now?
Question:
So I’m stuck on the runway in Vegas trying to get to Denver and they’re saying it’ll be at least an hour before we take away. Question, is there a worst hell than this?
— Steven McCash (@MC_Cash75) June 20, 2019
Answer:
Man, my last trip to New Jersey, we were on the runway for nearly two hours before we took off. Thankfully, I wasn’t in much of a hurry, had an empty seat in between my girlfriend and me, and had a book I was nowhere near finishing to pass the time.
But, for the most part, there aren’t many things worse than bad travel days. It once took me 14 hours to get from Nashville to San Francisco – One delayed flight set off a chain reaction of delayed connecting flights and by the time I actually made it out there, I was beat.
Rooster also saw this tweet and it reminded her of our trip to South Bend, Indiana last September for a work trip (we work together at the shoot job):
When travelling to South Bend for work I was delayed for about an hour and a half first flight out of San Diego. Missed my connection flight in Dallas Fort Worth because of the first delay, had to wait around 3-4 hours for the next flight. On the return trip, once again, got stuck in DFW due to storms. The runways were completely shut down, the plane we were supposed to get on had to circle around for a few hours before it could land. Then, it was just a backed up mess getting everything going again, so I was waiting in the airport for about 8 hours that time. Altogether, way too much time spent stuck in DFW airport but at least I got paid for my travel time.
Question:
If there’s one sporting event worldwide you would attend, but can’t for whatever reason, what would it be? The more abstract, the better

Answer:
There’s no real reason I can’t go, but I would absolutely love to go to the Cricket World Cup.
Question:
If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down?
— GradingPlushdaddy (@GPlushdaddy) June 20, 2019
Answer:
I’d like to say no, but we also kill animals to literally eat them, so probably…yeah.

Answer:
Reno showing up in the SoBros Mailbag through a video from a friend of the brand by complete happenstance is one of my all time favorite SoBros Network moments ever. By the way, Reno is the official bartender of the SoBros Network.

Answer:
I’ve never been. All I can say is godspeed, Herbie.
Question:
Would you be willing for Nashville to split an MLB or NBA team with Montreal or Tampa Bay?
— Joshua Huffman (@TNYooperJoshuaH) June 20, 2019
Answer:
I want to say no so bad to this, but honestly, if it meant I got to go to MLB in Nashville, I think I’d be cool with it.
Question:
Special challenge. Recast ‘The Princess Bride’ using the WWE roster.
— beach bum brett (@thebrettclark) June 20, 2019
Answer:
This is gold, Brett, as usual from you – but shit, I barely remember The Princess Bride. Let me give it my best shot. This is going to get weird.
Westley – Johnny Gargano
Buttercup – Carmella
Inigo Montoya – Roman Reigns
Prince Humperdinck – Baron Corbin
Vizzini – Paul Heyman
Count Rugen – Randy Orton
Fezzik – has to be Big Show, right?
The wizard couple in the woods – Just replace Billy Crystal with the New Day. All of ’em.
Question:
If you had to choose between attending a Super Bowl, a Word Cup final match, or a game 7 of either the NHL, MLB, or NBA finals, which game would you choose to attend? Note, your favorite team is not participating in any of the above.
— Armondo (@mightymondo) June 21, 2019
Answer:
Maybe – maybe, if the Preds or Grizzlies make Game 7 of their respective championship series, I go with something different. But, I’m still a football guy at heart, so this answer is pretty easily going to be the Super Bowl. American tackle football is the only sport I’d consider myself a diehard fan of – meaning I’ll watch the NFL no matter who is playing. The Super Bowl is definitely a bucket list item for me.
