Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
My condom put them on. Man, it feels weird. There's
no football. I mean, I don't know what UFL starts soon.
What are we gonna talk about? Man, lot a lot.
You got a lot to talk about.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Well, what I did kind of date back in my head,
as I said, I what was I doing at this
point last.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Year and the year before that.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
W NBA doesn't start until May, and I've already been
talking to Aaron, but Tookey, we're thinking about who we're
betting for MVP.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Caitlyn Clark. Caitlyn Clark, She's the favorite, has to be.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
She's not Ajah Smith, Ojah Wilson, the girl from the
Vegas Aces. She's won at three out of four, got it.
But Caitlyn Clark, there's a new sheriff in town.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
Three times your money.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
She just needs a little bit more points, her total,
her also her turnover.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
She was the leading and everybody has stopped listening to
the pod. So that doesn't start until May, you know,
and when it starts in May, guess what I won't
watch it. Well, that's it's amazing. As Caitlyn Clark is.
I watched her in the NCAA Tournament a little bit,
but I don't. I'm just I can't. I don't know.

(01:04):
I'm not into it. You watch the NCAA tournament, like
maybe the championship whenever they played.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
So did I so did? Damn I people are watching? No, No,
I got a bunch of closet. No, No, I understand
what brother's doing. He's gonna be watching WNBA. Everybody's in
the closet with the WNBA.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
I'm not saying people aren't watching. I'm saying I didn't
watch a single w NBA game ofhears last year, Like,
I have no idea, like were they good? Were they bad?
I have no idea. So I'm not looking forward to
the w NBA season. It's not something that I will
be sitting down to watch. I am just there's other
things going. I'd rather watch baseball. It's just me and

(01:41):
that's where I'm at right now.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Hockey's taking some weird two week break where they play
a bunch of different countries and it's not even the
All Star game they're not playing. If you're a red
hot hockey team, you have to be pissed off they
don't play for two weeks. This isn't the All Star break.
It is, but it lasts half a month.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
Yeah. I think the NBA is kind of doing that
format too, where they're having teams different teams, but they're
playing in a dunk contest. Well, I know they're having
a dunk contest, but I think, is there only two
teams in the All Star Game? I thought it was
gonna be like a.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
No, all four are gonna play at the same time. No,
no'sig games. I start gonna kill a couple guys.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
I thought they were doing like the NHL, where there
was like four different squads. But maybe I'm wrong. I
don't know. I knew there was a new format and.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
So and then baseball. Baseball doesn't start for another month
and a half.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
Pitchers and catchers report this week. Man, that's not some
of them. That's not a futures ah, that's that's back.
That's that's that's almost right around the corner. We're still
waiting on a lot of big names out there to
sign with teams, and there's fun bets.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
But what I found is your schemes to win the
cy Young and l you can't really you can't pick
other sports. So that's kind of on its own. I
wanted to pick maybe Judge. The good thing with home
run winner is you can parlay that with other sports,
but you can't Cy Young.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
Is he that big of a favorite? No, not him.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
But I'm saying, Scooball, maybe you picked some of one
of those guys, one of those dogs.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
Man, maybe Kersha. I mean he's back for an eighteenth year.
He may make seven appearances this year. And I mean
Dodgers will sign someone else they already signed. I mean
everybody under the damn son. I'm sorry, baseball got here.
Here's how stupid baseball is. They should have I'm starting
to believe they need a salary cap because the Dodgers
just signed everybody. And here's the crazy part. They didn't

(03:21):
even their their payrolls, not even that big, because like
half the guys they signed, they did deferred payments, like
the Bobby Benia, like they're gonna pay them when they're
long gone. Like they have payments way way, way, way
way down the line. That should absolutely be illegal in baseball.
I don't it's a great loophole. And when you have

(03:42):
so much money like the Dodgers do, that means nothing
to them. It doesn't matter that they're going after these
guys are retired, They're still going to owe them one
hundred and fifty million dollars. Seems really weird. Baseball is
all screwed up. I will watch because I will be
cheering hard against the Dodgers, hard against the dog I mean,

(04:02):
with all my I want the Dodgers not to win
because they have become the Yankees. They sign everybody.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
Well, you're on the opposite of that one. I'm doing
Dodgers over one hundred and seventeen MLB record wins.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
Right, But you want to cheer for them or do
you want to cheer for them to suck? I just
told you the bet over one hundred and seventeen wins.
I understand you're cheering against them. I will be cheering
for them, but that doesn't start.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
So right now, we're in this weird little lull of
about a month where there's nothing.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
I mean, there's college basketball, there's NBA. NBA has like
thirty games left in the regular season.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
And that's what I'm trying. I'm getting my dick wet
a little bit with Justin. Me and him are talking
who are the favorites? Who are we looking at to
put some money on for March Madness. Oh, I'll tell
you who should we start the show?

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Yeah, we should. That's a good tease, right there. Yeah,
let's start it.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Well, it's all math, that's all it is.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
That's all it is. Huh. And I found who has
a chance.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
Well, the woman who has won the WNBA MVP the
past five years has the highest player efficiency.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
And what is that.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
It's points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks added up. Subtract turnovers,
field goals, miss and you'll get your total. That divided
by forty games is player efficiency.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
So the winner of that typically every year, wins the MVP.
So take that, translate that over to basketball. It's all math,
and Duke is number one right now when.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
It comes to efficiency. Okay, they're number one.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
And I found a guy I'm not I've given the
website to Justin. I'm not giving it to anybody else.
It's all math. That math is gonna determine March Madness.
It's already been determined. Duke won.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Really according to this guy's math, he's picked is his
name Ken Palm.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
No.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
In the last ten years, he's picked the winner. Eight
out of ten not picked. Math has picked the winner
and the two years he didn't, it was Kansas and
they were top three, and it was Baylor and they
were top three in two thousand and two.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
What's this guy's name?

Speaker 2 (06:05):
I'm not releasing it to the public, weird because I'm
in a partner with him.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
Oh, because he needs you, Because let me tell you,
he what he needs is this dumb ass in a
beanie that is gonna do that goes to his website
to look at his numbers. But he needs you, So
that's a good idea. I would not release his name

(06:29):
because he needs you. Ah, got it? God, man, guys,
all the wait wait but if he gets you, does
he get Justin? Also? Yes? Oh, there's no way he's
not signing.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
Justin Rand's saber metrics, our whole uh, our whole fantasy
football and he got his eighth place.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
He is, I mean he he he can't pass up
an opportunity like that, Justin and Ray a combo deal
two for one, buy one, get one free, dude, sign you.
Guys will be all over his website. Oh my god, Uh.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Never mind, man, Now, let's start the show. Let's start
the show.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
I'd love to have got to know this guy's name. Now, now,
did he pick the winner before the tournament or did
he wait for the tournament to end and then be like, oh,
I picked them, that's my winner. No it's not. It's math. No, no, no,
so it was no stop he updates it every day. No,
he updates it. But that doesn't mean he says who's
gonna win. I want him to go and say, hey,
because of my math, this team is gonna win. Well,
his math right now is Duke.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
So if Duke wins at all, I tell you it's
because of this guy predicting them.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
Okay, but it could change because Duke could lose a
game and they could go down. But then like if
Duke loses in March Madness or has a bad game,
they could go down to number two. Does that mean, oh, wait,
he was right because he had auburn. I mean he
needs to tell me who the damn winner is before
the tournament starts. The math he's not telling you the

(07:49):
math is. I need to know his name because I
need to go to his website. You can tell me
off the hear. That's the other problem.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
There's some stuff we have access to, the other stuff
we have to pay. And that's why I want to
ask you if we can get into the account.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
No, God, no, god no, but it would benefit our podcast.
What benefit does it bring?

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Twenty dollars a month? We got to pay him and
he gives us the math, so we don't have to
turn on the mic and tell me the damn name.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
Are you texting to me? What are you doing? I
mean I just told I turned your mic. Yeah, if
you turn the mic off, you don't turn the mic
off until you're gonna tell me. All right. I'm just
sending it to you. Okay, you just send it to me.
That's great. I can pull it up on my computer
and look at this ship. Well, I'm texting it to you. Okay,
that's fine, My text come to my computer. Have you
ever heard say his name out loud? I'm not. Oh shit,

(08:44):
it's Justin does bets.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
Justin started a pay for view, just pay for Justin's picks, man, doctor,
Justin makes you gambling picks?

Speaker 1 (08:56):
I mean, oh my god, let's see. Let's see what
this guy's name is? All right? Oh he has top
ten teams. Who's number one per the math? Duke Duke
Goes Duke Houston, Auburn, Florida, Alabama Tech, Iowa State, Tennessee, Gonzaga,

(09:16):
and Kansas. Kansas is awful. If this dude has him
in his top ten, I'm not trusting him. Let's go
to kN Palm.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
Well, I will tell you the other day he goes Arizona,
should be Texas Tech per the math by one A
one by ten. So not only is the guy pretty
good at numbers when it comes to scene, who's gonna
win March Madness for futures, dude, he's good at the daily.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
Damn kin Pom has Kansas ten. He has Auburn one,
Duke two, Houston three, Florida four, Tennessee five, Alabama six seven,
per Due eight, Iowa State nine, Texas Tech ten Kansas.

Speaker 2 (09:50):
You think this dude's copying King Palm's work.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
Well, I mean yeah, I mean maybe he's same numbers.
I mean, this has a couple flip that kind of
looks very similar if you're asking me. But I mean,
I don't, I mean, this is a lot oh kill shots.
Oh I can't. I shouldn't say that.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
See, he's got categories I've never heard of before.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
Yeah, I don't even know what that means.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
He's like a brainiac. He's almost mensa.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
Oh, it has kill shots conceited per game, total kill shots,
total kill shots conceded, D one wins, D one losses.
Roster rink, Hell do you rank a roster and.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
He's big on a team playing well with injuries, and
that team right now the Florida Gators, because they are
wounded and they are beating some big time teams.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
They beat Auburn the other day. That boy, was it
Auburn had Auburn. Hey, Auburn was.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
Right down the street last night and Justin said, watch out.
He actually flip flopped at one point. He said, take
You're gonna want to take Auburn minus nine and a half.
Then he came back and said, Vandy plays him tight.
I would take Vandy. Then he texted me again and
said Auburn's probably your lock. You're gonna want to go
with that. He gave me four different answers in about
five text Yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
Tickets were only thirty bucks, man, No they weren't. They
go up. You're dick wrong.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
Well, because Justin said he went to a game against
Cal and it was eight dollars. He said last night,
there wasn't a ticket cheaper than forty or seventy.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
They were thirty, and then maybe they went up. I
looked like a week ago. I didn't go to the
game because the boys had basketball practice, so it was packed.
I mean, oh, I know the city was hopping. I
saw Auburn people walking all around. I mean the city
was buzzing'. They were right down the street from US,
the number one team in the nation, and US the

(11:38):
best sports podcast in the world. Didn't even go.

Speaker 2 (11:41):
You know who this guy has pinned as the number
one player right now for player efficiency.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
Probably Broom. Yep, he was right down the street the
other night. Yep, he was there.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
He's got duke number one in Broom, number one.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
Hey, Steven, he missed basketball practice and no show call,
no show. Who the hell is Steven? He's on the squad,
He's on the nets yours? Yeah, didn't show up. Where
does Ken Palm have you? Guys?

Speaker 3 (12:09):
Right?

Speaker 1 (12:09):
He has US rated twelve out of thirteen in the league.
And I got a text from his mom last night
at nine thirty, said, hey, Steven didn't just skip practice.
He went to do some research. Pick of him at
the Auburn basketball game. All right, I said, Hey, his
playing time will suffer, but good choice. Dad had some

(12:30):
money he had to throw down. Hey. I like it, though, Hey,
go out there learn watch basketball live. That's better. It's
a better thing than sitting there trying to learn from me.
I sure, as I don't know what I'm doing. Those
guys were flying.

Speaker 2 (12:40):
Auburn started out seventeen to nothing, then it became a game.
At one point Vandy was winning, and then Auburn sodomized
him in the second half of fifteen.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
Most of this second Oh, I didn't see any of it.
I was up practice.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
They got some kid, Auburn got Jordan something just draining threes.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
Brom was moving.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
Auburn's got a solid four guys, and the sad thing
is they had three of them transfer. One guy went
to George May, another guy went to Albuquerque, another guy
went to South Jacksonville State.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
And or they left auburny all left Auburn. They would
have had a they would have won the championship. Easy know.
Those guys wouldn't have played. They would have stayed and
they wouldn't have played. That's why they were able to
bring in other guys. Okay, I don't know. I don't know.
Auburn's roster I watch him pro me the one guy. No, no,
the one guy. He's he may be a point guard.
He's got a wild bro. Yeah, he's awesome. He's skinny, dude. Yeah,

(13:27):
I like him.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
He might have been the Jordan guy that was draining threes.
Maybe he went seven to nine last time.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
I impressive. That's better than I did.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
And then you said, did you watch any.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
Of the game. None a bit. I just told you
I had practice.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
Vandy's got a big guy looks like Shack, and then
they also got a guy quicker than Scat. He might
be going to the league next year. Really, their point
guard is lightning fast. I go, we might need to
go to a Vandy game.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
Dude. Hey, I'm going anchor up. I'm going to a
Vandy game. When March first against what.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
We like, I said, nothing's happening for a month. There's
literally nothing happening for the next three weeks.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
Against Missouri because my kid, baby Box, he has a
reading challenge at his school and if he reads twenty
minutes a day for nine days this month, he gets
two tickets to the Missouri versus Vanderbilt game, or he
gets four tickets to the women's game. Who you take

(14:26):
it me or your mom.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
You gotta go women's. No way, you're a closet women's. Anyways,
you said you were watching WNBA last year. No, I said,
I didn't watch a damn the championship.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
I said the NCAA Championship when Caitln Kark played in it.
I bet you guys go to the women's game. I'll
bet you we don't, cause he already said, Dad, I
want to go to the boys. All right, We're gonna
do it live. Arnold's off again. Today.

Speaker 2 (14:47):
I talked to Kevin. Kevin's recovering from the Super Bowl,
so's Arnold. Arnold's hasn't been himself yet, so once he
gets his head on straight, sobered up, we'll find him.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Oh man, did you see that Telemundo reporter? Oh super Bowl?
Well god, crime music, crime music, he got. Yeah, we'll talk,
all right, we'll do it live. All right, We're gonna
do it live.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
We are the one, two three, So losers.

Speaker 1 (15:14):
What up? Everybody? I am lunchbox. I know the most
about sports, so I'll give you the sports facts, my
sports opinions, because I'm pretty much a sports genius. Allegedly, y'all.
It says it. I'm from the north Alpha male. I
live in the north side of Nashville.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
Baser Broadway. Girl, we have two point two acres. It
keeps getting smaller.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
I don't know. I don't know. Maybe the earth's grow.
Oh that's what it was. All the rain.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
We now got rivers and it seems like it's coming
in on our property. Over to you, man, I got
a mote like you. We need to talk. Telemundo.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
Yeah, I think I think he's Telemundo allegedly. Yeah, he's
allegedly Telemundo. He was from Topeka, Kansas. He goes down
there to report. He goes down there to cover the
Super Bowl and party a little bit and he was
found dead and it found the woman. They security camera
footage of him being taken into a hotel room with

(16:06):
a woman who has a reputation for drugging men and
robbing them on Bourbon Street. She is seen leaving the
hotel room and returning numerous times. He never left the
hotel room after entering the hotel room, and his credit
cards were used in various locations throughout New Orleans shopping shopping.

(16:28):
She has been arrested. He is dead, and here's the
sad part. A little less than a year ago, his
wife died in a car wreck, so now their child
is without parents. Wow.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
And also if that lady has been known for allegedly
drugging men in hotel rooms posing as a lady.

Speaker 1 (16:48):
Of the night at bars, why do they let her in.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
In the wee hours of the morning. Why are the
bars allowing her on the premises A and B? Why
is she not behind bars? You can get out if
you just drug some and rob them, they're out in
a week.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
Yeah, maybe she hadn't gone. I don't know. She's going
to the big house. Yeah, yeah, well we'll wait until
the toxicology reports come back. We'll see what happened. But
all signs are I forgot they had.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
Her picture all over the place. I didn't think she
was that great looking.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
I don't think when you're a lady of the night.
You know, like the movies they have the ladies of
the night, the hookers that look beautiful and amazing. That's
not really how they look in reality. And you know,
we're a little rougher around the edges.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
What's terrible about it is this guy was out there
reporting his ass off. We saw some of the reports
from guys coming out. Everybody was being funny. They were working.
There's some guys that still haven't recovered. And it is midweek,
damn near after the Super Bowl. That's how hard these
people went. Dude, that guy was busting his ass on
the beat and one wrong turn he got a little

(17:52):
bit lonely, vulnerable, asked her to come to his room, allegedly,
and then the wheels fell off.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Yeah, and her nickname was the Bourbon street hustler. She's
been known to Louisiana police. Get her off the streets man.
There was another victim that came forward that said a
couple of years ago, he had a run in with
the same lady and he almost died. He was lucky
to be alive. She left him for dead in a

(18:21):
hotel room.

Speaker 2 (18:22):
What did he say, though, how or is she trying
to kill him?

Speaker 1 (18:27):
Is it? A fifty two year old man came forward
and said he met the woman in a French quarter
bar in New Orleans in November twenty twenty one. He
said that another woman her and another woman approached him
and offered him a cocktail, and after enjoying the drink,
he quickly started to feel disoriented. And needed help getting
back home. She ushered me into some kind of black

(18:47):
suburban that was literally right there waiting for us.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
Tahoe.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
And that's the last thing I remember that night. Ain't
nothing but a tahoe. A property manager found the Butler
passed out on the floor and shook him away. The Butler, no,
Butler was the guy with the victim biting. His phone
and wallet gone and his credit cards used to make
thousand dollar charges at best Buy in Walmart. More than

(19:12):
eighty thousand dollars that Butler had stashed away in cryptocurrency
account for retirement was also gone. Since then, Butler has
kept tabs on Culbert, fearing that she wouldn't stop with
a suspect facing similar charges the next year.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
Wow, So he had continued to warn people about her
or he just wanted to know her whereabouts.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
Yeah, he wanted to see what it was happened. Last
year she was convicted of computer fraud, theft and I
legal transmission of monetary funds for Oh my god. She
did not get prison time in that case, and instead
ordered her to pay restitution and remain on probation for
five years. So she did all that to that dude?

(19:55):
Got busted, got convicted, but she all had editor was
paying back.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
And she was on probation out on the show streets.
And the telltale sign there is the woman buying a
guy a drink. Has a woman ever bought you a drink?

Speaker 1 (20:05):
If any woman ever comes up and goes, oh, I
got you a drink, throw in the track. You know
it's you know it's bad. Actually Beezer did the other day.
That's your wife. Okay, A random chick at a bar
is not gonna buy you a drink. That's not how
it happens. They are not gonna approach you. They never do.
You had to approach women.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
And I think there's a conversation that goes on first.
And that's what it is. She skipped the step of conversation.
Even if your guys or girls ladies, before you accept
a drink from a guy, hey, how are you doing?

Speaker 1 (20:32):
Where are you from?

Speaker 2 (20:33):
Usually if they're a criminal, I would imagine it's got
to be tough for them to make a logical conversation
starter piece.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
Yeah, and like what if you say, oh, what kind
of drink is it? And they're like, oh, I'll rum
and coke? Like and actually I prefer tequila and don't
you ask what it is, or you just accept the
drink blindly. Well, here's the thing. Are they at the
bar and they listen for what you order, then they
order one of those, then follow you around the bar
and be like, hey, cutie, I got you. I heard
you like these.

Speaker 2 (20:59):
And with these pills, I'm sure they know the drink
you have to order where it disguises the pill and
you really can't tasty, you really can't see it. Maybe
if it fizzes up. I've had some of those where
Matt Overton not like this story. Matt Overton gave me
these zip fizz things. They hydrate you while you're drinking.
I'm at the bar. I put a zip fizz in
my drink. It starts going off like old faithful. I
got a fucking volcano in the bar. Didn't know that.

(21:21):
So that's what I'm saying. These pills they react all
kinds of different with these drinks. So tell them what
you want to drink. That I would imagine will cause
some sort of trepidation when it comes to the pill.

Speaker 1 (21:31):
Dropping smart yeah, so hey man, but heavy, yeah, rest
in peace. We'll be right back, man. I didn't want
to start off like that. No we're not. We're gonna
get some happier shit. I want to talk about the
soft ass Dallas Mavericks at least, not another birthday. Actually

(21:52):
it was Ray Saquan's No, no, no birthday. What do
you mean birthday? Every show we talk about a damn birthday. No. Oh, yeah,
go to a birthday. This past week, I forgot. I've
got a Monday's pond. We didn't talk about a birthday. Yeah,
I was like, what are you talking about? Birthday? Yeah? No, no,
there's no birthdays on Monday or Tuesday. That's really a
weird day of the week to have a birthday party.

(22:12):
But I saw the Mavericks game last night and people
had fire. Nico signs up, you know, Nico's the general manager,
escorted out of the building. They were doing a sing
along on the jumbo tron. They were paying in the crowd.
People are singing. They go to one guy. He's singing
and he sees he's on the jumbo trall and he
goes fire. Nico escorted out of the building. Yeah, to

(22:33):
know it's coming.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
If you're the PA guy, the inner arena host, good
luck in Dallas.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
Listen who cares if they say fire Nico, You're gonna
kick them out of the stadium for saying fire Nico.
Who they boo the players? Do you kick them out
of the stadium when they boo players? Just because you're
a little sensitive little bitch because you made a huge trade,
you're swinging for the fences. You did something unconventional. Be ballsy,

(23:01):
and you have been ballsy by standing by that decision
and backing it up every interview, showing no remorse. Don't
look like a little chicken shit and kick people out
of the game for a holding up a sign and
says fire Nico.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
What if he's playing five D checkers? He paid those
people to have a sign at the stadium? Create controversy.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
Oh I don't think so, Okay, I like your angle.
Does Gifford play for Dallas? Yeah, but he got hurt Gafford,
he got hurt. Yeah, they're there fighting. Facer told me
the other day, I mean, you can't make this ship up.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
She goes, hey, what do you want for your birthday
or for the Valentine's cupid's birthday? And I say, give
me a memorabilia piece, something I don't want, flowers, chocolates,
all that shit, you know, chocolate whipped cream mikini.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
Say, give me a memorabilia. Wait, you passed the whip
gream mukinniy I'll take that.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
And she comes running up and she goes, hey, hey,
I got you memorabilia. I got you memorabilia. Do you
know who Daniel Gifford is?

Speaker 1 (23:58):
Gafford? And I go, fuck's this guy?

Speaker 2 (24:02):
And she goes, I got you an autographed Daniel Gifford
card card.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
Yeah, it's probably worth fifty cents. Autographed, it's probably worth
fifty cents. It's coming in, it's coming for Valentine's Day.
Where the hell did she? Why did she get that?
Of all the people, I'm I did one of those
stupid draws. Yeah, oh my god, that's how you get
him for cheaper prices.

Speaker 2 (24:27):
But he didn't get him any good I know. Of
all the people she came and told me. I didn't
suspect she was gonna give me a Daniel.

Speaker 1 (24:34):
Gifford autograph card.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
I thought she'd go with a Luca I don't know,
a Titans guy. She with Daniel Gifford. He doesn't even
see the paint, and now he's hurt.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
That thing's dropping. Uh. Autographed card. Oh, Daniel Gifford autograph
card goes for Oh, well, what what kind of card
is it? Donros? Donros Uh, let me see Donrous. Okay,
I gotta tell you, though I know a lot of names.
I mean, you could throw names at me.

Speaker 2 (25:05):
I would say college basketball, NBA WNBA oh.

Speaker 1 (25:09):
Pre own Daniel Gafford twenty three, twenty four Donorous signature series.
Is it a Wizard's jersey or when he's at the
Maverick Mavericks? Oh, I don't have a Mavericks on here,
but for the Wizards you can sell for nine to
ninety nine. Man, all right, well if they make a run. Oh,
I made a run last year with him. Gotta tell you.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
When I said memorabilia, of all the people that I
thought she was gonna come to me with, I didn't
expect Daniel Gafford.

Speaker 1 (25:33):
Yeah, you know a lot of people, you said, Yeah,
I know a pretty wide, vast array of athletes.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
When she hit me with Daniel Gafford, he couldn't even
hide it in my face.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
I was like, Daniel Gafford, Yeah, that should be good.

Speaker 2 (25:47):
Google's it real quick, Daniel Gafford, Who the hell is that?

Speaker 1 (25:50):
That's bad? I mean ry. Hey, nothing says I love
you like a Daniel Gafford card. You know what I'm saying, day,
I really look forward. I appreciate it. Whatever you do,
don't say fire Nico, You'll get kicked out of the stadium.
Just thought of soft and crap. I thought I was
a bitch move.

Speaker 2 (26:07):
Is are the Lakers right now looking at the better
end of the deal.

Speaker 1 (26:11):
Well, it's been a day. I like judging things by
a day. I mean, here's the thing. AD's dead for
a month now. The Mavericks did get the full scope
of Ad in about three quarters because he was playing great.
Then he had to leave with an injury and now
he's out. But here's the problem with.

Speaker 2 (26:28):
The Laker abduct your strain ring.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
They made a great trade by going to get a
center from the Charlotte Hornets, but he couldn't piss test.
Then he failed the physical and they sent his ass back.
So they're no better off because they got no center.
When Jackson Hayes is your ciner, good luck, good luck
winning with that as your ciner. And I don't know

(26:50):
how they're gonna make it to the NBA finals. They
don't have any big men.

Speaker 2 (26:54):
Are you already seeing all the highlights with Sports Center
and clips we're getting on our phone. It's every lebron
J smiles after his pass from Luca. Guys, how much
more of this are we gonna do? Can they please
get sodomized? In the playoffs first round.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
JJ Reddick has to tell himself that he goes stop. Stop.

Speaker 3 (27:13):
They showed a cliff of him going stop because he
couldn't believe Luca is on his team. No, he's walking
on the I'm done. I'm done with the media, dude,
I can't anymore.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
I mean, you want to talk about sensationalizing a fucking
headline this, dude. I mean, he could have been yelled
at the ref stop. He could have been saying anybody stop.
But just because he's walking and Luca is in the
picture and he's saying stop, they make it. He's telling
himself stop to refocus, that he can't believe Luca's on

(27:47):
his team. How did we come to that conclusion? Like
what was in your mind? What made you come to
the conclusion that? But that's what JJ Reddick was thinking
at that time, was stop? Is this even? No? He
was saying stop, like stop leaving your man on deep ense,
stop throwing the ball away. Stop you know, double teeming

(28:08):
on the on the pick and roll. He's saying stop
to something else, but we make it because Luca's on
the shut up. And then oh another one, Oh my god,
look at how tickled that Luca is that they're playing
Slovenian music. But I didn't see that one. Yeah, he
was shooting threes and he's rubbed his chats and he smiles.
They're like, look at how much it means that Luca
that they started playing Slovenian music. And when he was

(28:30):
warming up, I'm like, or was he just having a
conversation with somebody? He smiled and that music was playing.

Speaker 2 (28:36):
I saw one where he goes, look at Lebron James smile.
Now he knows he can maybe get fifty again like
he did.

Speaker 1 (28:45):
The other day. Did he put up twenty or thirty
or something? Who Luca or Lebron?

Speaker 2 (28:49):
I think I read that Lebron now has been so
rejuvenated with Luca that he thinks he can get fifty again.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
Great congratulations.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
And then our boy Luca, I think he's playing the
Lakers games with a white shirt underneath.

Speaker 1 (29:02):
To hide the fat. But it makes him look even bigger.
Well he did that with the Mavericks. Oh, because he
was hiding the fat. Okay, here's the thing. Another funny
one was, oh, there has to be more I've seen.
It was Lebron wanted to make sure Luca felt welcome,

(29:22):
so he went to Luca and said, hey, how do
you want the starting lineup to be announced? And Louke like,
where where in the starting lineup do you want to
be announced? And Luca told Lebron, hey, let me go
last this one game and then you can have your spot.
It's like we are acting like we are acting like

(29:43):
Luca is the second coming of Jesus. Dude, let's call
me like we are adding like this dude invented basketball,
Like give me a fucking break man.

Speaker 2 (29:52):
The photographer who took this photo gets a raise, and
it's Luca getting elbowed and Lebron caring for him, looking
at him like who cares that he was able to
freeze frame it when Luca was getting punched.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
I mean, we are adding like Luca is the greatest
basketball player to ever grace our President, the Master.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
It's Lebron and Luke on the court together, the Master
and the apprentice coach.

Speaker 1 (30:18):
I can't. I can't anymore. The overblownness of Luca Das
is so damnitoy. Have you seen the all time stupidest one?
He's really good. Have you seen the all time stupidest one?

Speaker 3 (30:30):
No?

Speaker 1 (30:30):
Tell me, Oh god, what number is Luca? I don't
even know four seventy seven? What number is lebron? Seven?
Twenty three? He changed his numbers every year, and as
he was he seven at the dude, here's the thing.
I don't know players Jersey's numbers anymore. I'm not twelve.

(30:51):
I can't keep up with all this shit.

Speaker 2 (30:53):
Well they did the math win let me let me, oh,
twenty three plus seventy seven equals one hundred. Let's get it, boy, aha,
let's give it a hundred.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
D You can't make this ship up. No, you can't,
because they did. They made it up. They make all
this Hey stop, Oh my god. JJ Reddick is so
mesmerized that Luca's actually on his team. I'm throw my
damn phone across the room and I read it was
this one.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
Oh that's how they're gonna be very dangerous. Was this
one you were talking about? He let me have my moment.

Speaker 1 (31:25):
Yes, you already hit that one. It's like Lebron came
to me and wanted to make sure I felt appreciated.
So he said, hey, man, where do you want to
be announced in the starting lineup?

Speaker 2 (31:36):
I don't hate this one. Pooka, what city does he plan?

Speaker 1 (31:39):
Los Angeles? What city does Luca plan? Los Angeles? So
then Puka did a play on words and did Pooka Donic?
Okay instead of Luca. That's funny. That's fine. Okay, that
one wasn't at each other and they exchange jerseys. Great,
that's that's not any that didn't anything special. Okay, this
has got to be a stupid time. I mean it
is so damn I'm annoying. So I mean, wait this one.

Speaker 2 (32:06):
Fifteen seventy seven, Lebron James, I'm playing with Austin Reeves
and Luka Doncic fifteen and seventy seven, cold as fuck
lucky men.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
See, wait there, dude, We're getting this the rest of
the next five months, until you.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
Know, we're going to get it for the rest of
our lives. Here's here's what. When you asked me, what
is Lebron James's jersey number? These are the jersey numbers
he's worn in his career six, nine, twenty three, and
thirty two. So don't ask me what damn number he's
wearing right now because I don't know. Okay, just understand
he wears a lot of jerseys. Jesus, you know what

(32:53):
that was? The full court passed to Lebron.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
But you know the caption, No, the first of many
assists to Lebron.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
Oh my god, dude, they're every day in my phone.
I wake up to that. Shit. Hey, let me know
what he has his first assistant, Bronnie James. Let me
knowing that that's the caption in the future, That's what
it needs to be. It needs to be the Master
and the princes needs to be Lebron and Bronnie James.
Get the God this I like Luca, but this is overkill.

(33:24):
Well you knew was gonna happen. Well, I knew everybody
was gonna overreact. Everybody's gonna freak out like they're the
greatest team in the world. It was one game. Let's
calm down. Lebron James is still forty five years old,
Like he doesn't have what he used to have.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
Heated.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah, it's easy to feel really reinvigorated for a week.
You got to maintain it for three months. Good luck.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
When I was at the Dodds though, we were trying
to find that Lakers game.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
I'm not saying that it's not good TV and I'm
not gonna watch them play, but this acting like freaking
Luca walks on water and can do anything and is
the best basketball player to ever be on your screen. God,
it's super annoying. And I mean, speaking of good basketball players.
Are you ready to hear about the Nets game this

(34:12):
past weekend? Stevenson? Steven he was He no showed at
the game too this past weekend. So he no showed
at the game, He no showed at practice. They just
forgot what time the game was on Saturday.

Speaker 2 (34:24):
Who's your ranker again, Pow Gamma or what is it?

Speaker 1 (34:27):
H Ken palm, Ken palm? Okay, Yeah, his efficiency for
Steven is very low because he doesn't show up well.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
I asked Boomer for his stats. I go, Boomer, I
need your stats. I'm gonna figure out your player efficiency points, assists, rebounds, blocks, steals,
subtract turnovers and field goals missed, and then divide that
by games played. And that's a player's efficiency. Typically the
baseline is fifteen good player. Girl that won it all
was thirty five. Ajah Wilson, Caitlin Clark was in the

(34:55):
twenty threes. But it's got to be over fifteen. We
can figure it for Stevenson.

Speaker 1 (34:58):
Yeah, we'll figure it out. We'll be right. So we got
a game Saturday morning. Dude, I believe the game is
at nine o'clock. And I don't know how these people
are messing up the schedule or how they don't understand,
but I'm getting text one parent, Hey, is game nine
or nine thirty? My wife's arguing with me it's nine thirty.

(35:19):
Who's right? I'll get a divorce? And I'm like, you're right,
it's nine. He goes, she's insisting it's nine thirty. I'm like,
tell her she's wrong, it's at nine o'clock. Well, that
couple's got about a month left. Uh. Not a good sign.
And we show up and we only got five players.
And as we're walking in, there's hockey going on next door,
and there's these kids that look like they're thirteen years

(35:40):
old showing up to their hockey games in full suits.
I'm like, why the hell do they have to wear
suits to their freaking youth hockey game. My junior preds
so dumb. Hey, that's the future of smashtown, baby. So
I'm like, really, what difference does it make if they're
walking from their parents' car to where no no one

(36:00):
sees them in a suit at thirteen years old? You
have got to be kidding me. Let go people, Let
them wear their sweats, let them wear a T shirt,
nice fit check nice, and they got these big ass
bags on their shoulder in their nice suit. Oh, I
can tell that kid's a good hockey player because he
wears a suit. What a gentleman he wears a suit

(36:22):
of the damn hockey game at thirteen years old. Imagine
if I made the new jersey nets show up to
the basketball game in their suit and we went in
the locker room to change.

Speaker 2 (36:32):
I will tell you all those kids are probably rich.
Hockey travel is one of the most expensive ones there is.
Has to be, it could be the most.

Speaker 1 (36:40):
Has to be. Dude. I see them and they have
five different sticks. These bags are they're as big as them.
And then if you're the goalie, I can't even imagine
how much that equipment cost. Not to take from your story.
Oh I love it.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
Cousin daughter who is a flower girl at our wedding,
do you remember shoting? She cried, she barely threw the flowers.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
I don't realize. She got a little stage fright, freaked out.

Speaker 2 (36:58):
Her name's Tater Todd and she is part of cheerleading
Travel cheerleading man. The cousin said they did the math
from last year. It cost them ten grand. No see
with hotels and all the amounts that they were doing.

Speaker 1 (37:15):
Dude, the hockey, Like I was in the parking lot.
There was cars from Ohio, Alabama, there was travel hockey Michigan,
and I'm like, these people traveled this far for a
damn hockey game.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
Dude, that what's next after that is probably a step
away from NHL because the Preds were playing the Oakland Grizzlies,
and that's Oakland, Michigan.

Speaker 1 (37:35):
The Pred's minor league team. Yeah yeah, And I'm like,
they came down here for a game from Oakland, Michigan.

Speaker 2 (37:41):
They probably stayed the whole weekend and played.

Speaker 1 (37:43):
Probably played, but I'm like, and they're wearing suits. I'm like,
this is so stupid.

Speaker 2 (37:48):
You came from three blocks away and I'm air is
all messed up, and I'm like, I got my hoodie on.

Speaker 1 (37:53):
I'm looking at these guys. I'm like, what in the hell? Boy?
And the kid walking in with his hockey bag handed
me a dollar. He said, get yourself something to eat.
I'm like, I'm the coach, damn it. I'm like, yeah,
I'm the coach, idiot. That's all right, man, whatever, and
all right, cool and right of those hockey moms, though, no, no,

(38:15):
I couldn't even see it. There's like eight people there.
You can't even go in. You have to watch through
the window. We watched through the window. We're not allowed
in because I think you've got to pay to get in.
I'm not paying to get in.

Speaker 2 (38:23):
I gotta ask my friend because her kid's doing the
travel thing right now.

Speaker 1 (38:26):
I gotta ask her. I mean they loved it. I
mean my kids watch it. They sit there through the
window watch and they really enjoy it. But we go
into the basketball gym.

Speaker 2 (38:33):
We're ready to go, guys, we're gonna go to the
less entertaining sport.

Speaker 1 (38:36):
Come on, let's go next. Come on, nuts there, one dude,
three nuts. There's only five players. So they're like, are
we are we gonna start, and I'm like, well, you're
the only ones here, guys, you're a lot, only one here.
One of them is your wife. Come on, honey, say
it aloud. So you guys are gonna start, don't worry
about it. And then Jessica gets there right at tip off,
so she's on the bench. Jessica, you just take a
seat for a little bit. You'll get in halfway through

(38:56):
the first quarter. My mom is getting a Minnie. And
let me tell you the other team, they had one guy,
their dad, and the dad was six seven and so
the kid, at you know, six years old, is already
i mean, a foot taller than everybody on our team.
Don't know how we're gonna guard him, but we're gonna
do our best. We're gonna put you know, baby box
on him in the post. And I said, hey, man,

(39:17):
just get your hands up and he can't shoot it
over you. The only problem is I say that about defense,
but he was a head taller than him, so he
could shoot it over him. Brings that below the belt, Well,
he he didn't bring it. They would dribble it down.
They would throw it to that guy and he would
turn around and he would throw it like a throw
in over his head. He'd make it and I was like, damn,

(39:39):
and he could just get the rebound because he's so
much taller than everybody made to say impossible, But I mean,
how do they defend taco fall and dude from perdue
ed lee?

Speaker 2 (39:47):
When he puts it below his dick, you slap it
out of his hands, And.

Speaker 1 (39:51):
There was sometimes he did put it below the right
but you got to tell him that as a coach, well,
I know, but then when he didn't, it was hard
to get it because he was when they put it
below your crackers, that's produced your twigs are married. Yeah,
but I have girls on my team, so I can't
say that you gotta be bashing. That's like, I mean,
my three year old, I don't know. I think he

(40:12):
just had the realization of boys and girls because we
were walking through the neighborhood and there was a swing.
We started swinging on it and the people that lived
there they came out and they have three kids and
one the older kids a boy, and the two younger
ones are girls. And the girl who's probably like three,
was naked, and my three year old's like naked boy,

(40:33):
naked boy, naked boy, and Baby Box goes, that's a girl,
and he goes, what like he was so confused, didn't
realize there was boys and girls. Very funny. Anyway, back
to the basketball game. Yeah, so the tall guy three
minutes into the game, he gets fouled. He's going to
the line for two, going to the line for two bricks.

Speaker 2 (40:55):
One shack foul, shack attack or that's exactly shack a
shack a shack.

Speaker 1 (40:59):
That's ex exactly what we implemented. Okay, pop, and he
drained the second one. I'm like, all right, hacker shacks off,
Hacker shacks off. It was a back and forth game.
The guy kept getting rebounds, he'd break, he'd bricked. They're
up seven to nothing.

Speaker 2 (41:15):
You guys can't score. Your player efficiency is well below fifteen. Yeah,
give me some of your kids' stats next time. I
want to figure out your kid's player efficiency.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
But we did get a couple kids that got shots
off this game. That was good that they had never
shot it before.

Speaker 2 (41:29):
But points and steals add to their player efficiency.

Speaker 1 (41:32):
Baby Box two would lead the team in steals. He's
good at getting that ball. How many blocks. He's the
shortest one on the team. He doesn't really How many
steals you think you got? He probably got like five
last game, five steals. How many shots did he take?
He took two. How many turnovers? Oh, probably about ten?
Ten turnovers?

Speaker 2 (41:48):
Yeah, so five takeaway or you said five steals take away?
How many shots to two shots that he missed?

Speaker 1 (41:55):
Yeah, airbo okay, airball equals that minus you did ten turnovers?
Probably ten.

Speaker 2 (42:01):
He was that divided by one game. He had a
negative seven. They said, fifteen's like a baseline for like a.

Speaker 1 (42:08):
But he's getting there. He had a negative seven player efficiency. Yeah,
but he's four man. He said, fifteen's about the lowest
you could go. Well, he's good at getting there and
stripping it. And as a four year old, he's smart.
He doesn't dribble straight down the court. He goes to
the outside to get away from the traffic, and he
goes and goes and goes and he shot it. Didn't

(42:29):
make it, but it was awesome. And then, uh, this
kid that's only been he wasn't there last week and
he was sick. He was there this weekend. He gets it.
He doesn't really dribble, He runs around a lot with it.
He gets it, dribbles it down, then runs from the
three point line all the way down to the basket,
throws it up and he makes it. He starts jumping
up and down. Your guy, yeah, our guy. Okay, so

(42:50):
we're on the board. It's seven to two. What's his name?
Uh that is Matthew. Okay, Matthew makes Do you take SATs? Yeah?
They have a score sheet and every bring them.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
I can figure out their player efficiency.

Speaker 1 (43:02):
I will try to get out maybe bocks, you were
a negative seven. But then one girl showed up at
nine thirty. She thought of the game was at nine thirty.
So she showed up halfway through the game and had
to get her in the game. Oh here, come on,
get in, get in and get in and we and
then baby Box made a shot and we lost thirteen
to four. I don't know how to And I told

(43:25):
my wife after the game. I was like, I don't
know how to teach offense. Maybe basketball is not my game.
Maybe I don't.

Speaker 2 (43:31):
Yeah, if you really, but I mean, our other parents
can be better than you. Are you the last option?

Speaker 1 (43:35):
I don't know?

Speaker 2 (43:36):
And I love you think you know basketball, but I
mean you're basically hurting cats.

Speaker 1 (43:41):
Well I am, but I try to run just like
Kansas does. I try to. I try to swing the
ball from side to side and have the big man
down low, pin the guy low, and we throw it
to the corner of the backboard, get it and go up.
But we don't have someone that's his softest hunter Dickinson,
So that's the problem. And we like to drip dribble it.
And right when we get over mid court, we pick

(44:03):
up our dribble and we try to throw a pass
from there all the way down to the block, and
we try to throw it over twelve people and it
gets intercepted. That's where Baby Box two gets in trouble,
and that's where his ten turnovers come in. Is he's
four and he tries to chunk it from mid court
all the way down to the basket for a pass.
Here's the problem.

Speaker 2 (44:22):
I just realized that my dad never got involved until
you could at least like walk.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
Well, these kids can walk, they can run.

Speaker 2 (44:29):
At that point, you're kind of just a babysitter.

Speaker 1 (44:31):
Really.

Speaker 2 (44:31):
You get into coaching once the kids are in upper
elementary to middle Yeah. I think my dad let other
people handle T ball because he knew it was a joke.

Speaker 1 (44:40):
Our offensive efficiency is so bad? Are are our points
per possession? I mean just not very good.

Speaker 2 (44:47):
You gotta be out there with the stats though. You
gotta seem like a mathematician. And the other coaches are like,
what the is this guy? Do? You got to bring
the math to the game because right now all it
is is just shit thrown it a wall.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
I mean, one kid's got his hands in his pocket
and I'm like, how are you gonna play defense like that?

Speaker 2 (45:01):
How can it?

Speaker 1 (45:01):
And he's like oh and then he stakes his arms out.
I'm like, there you go. That's how you play defense.
It was a rough one. Yeah. And so yesterday at practice,
all we did we didn't shoot shooting, we don't. We
just passed. We just learned. We just passed, passed, passed, passed,
chess passed a lot of them when they throw their passes,
they do moon balls. I'm like, no, no, guys, you want

(45:22):
to throw it right to them. Yeah, if you do
it a chess pass, it gets to them quicker. And
I step and point step in point, like throw your finger,
like where you're going with the ball?

Speaker 2 (45:33):
And is it loud in these gyms when you guys
are playing? Oh yeah, I mean yeah, it just it's
impossible to run plays to get their attention, to tell
them what to do.

Speaker 1 (45:42):
Yeah, like my dad, he helped assistant coach when I
was a kid, when we when I was on the
Bulls and we would run plays like Pippin Jordan Cartwright.

Speaker 2 (45:52):
But are you guys close to running plays or is
that not even?

Speaker 1 (45:55):
No, I can't get them to understand the offense like defense.
I get them to, you know, mark up, but I
can't get them to spread out. Yeah, that's really what
you need them to do. They all run to the
same spot and I might no, no spreadouts, but because
one moves, they all moved to the other side, and
I might know. And then we throw it and it's
but we did. Actually, I will say we actually completed

(46:18):
a few passes last game. That was pretty cool to start.
But yeah, so we worked on uh, just passing yesterday
at practice, but we did. Martha, who hadn't made a
shot all season, even in practice, that name's making a resurgence. Wow.
I I sat there with her towards the end of
practice and I was like, I was like, hey, guys,

(46:39):
we got eight minutes left of practice. Just shoot, just
have fun, have fun. And we worked with her and
worked with her. She made a basket. What's the how
are you the rims seven and a half feet maybe eight?
Can you dunk?

Speaker 2 (46:52):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (46:53):
Because I can't pull him a ball?

Speaker 2 (46:54):
It's still a little Yeah, I wonder if you can
dunk it? Could tall kid almost dunk it?

Speaker 1 (46:59):
No? Oh, he can't jump that highky no, no, no. But yeah,
so we lost thirteen to four. We're now with me
as head coach, we're zero and three. But on the season,
we're one and three. I was the only game I
was not at. We won.

Speaker 2 (47:11):
Dude, you should almost just change it up. What if
you came dressed up like those hockey kids? What if
you made them with your kids and everybody wear their
nicest outfit.

Speaker 1 (47:20):
Yeah, like their Sunday school best, right, But what do
they do?

Speaker 2 (47:24):
Just wear their shorts and stuff? There's nowhere to change? No, okay,
never mind.

Speaker 1 (47:28):
Like, let me like and their shorts, dude, Like, it's
one size fits all, dude. So baby Box two, let
me show you the picture.

Speaker 2 (47:35):
Right, it looks like the N one mixtape to her
out there, they've shown clips of basketball shorts from twenty
years ago.

Speaker 1 (47:42):
It wasn't it crazy?

Speaker 2 (47:43):
How baggy they used to have them, oh my gosh,
and now they all wear them right.

Speaker 1 (47:46):
Up their cranks. Dude. You can't even see the kid's legs, dude,
I mean he has a head, arms, and ankles. That's
all he has. Is that not hilarious? You almost got
to get him another pair of shorts. I did. I
got him another pair of black shorts. Yeah, I mean
it is so you me, my mom, she could sew

(48:08):
those things. I mean, look at that. I mean it socks,
it's his socks. You don't even see any skin. He
does look like a ball though. He does look like
a baller. Dude. What's the little one? Dude just dick
around on the SoC Dig's le around on the sideline
with his basketball and cries because he can't go in
the game.

Speaker 2 (48:22):
He looks like he'd be a little bit more efficient
than Jessica.

Speaker 1 (48:25):
Yeah, he's ready. He'll be in it next year. He'll
be four next year and he can play. And I'm like,
how the hell is he gonna play basketball? The basketball
is three sizes, it's too big for him, Like, is
it it's a women's ball? Probably, it's like a twenty
seven and a half inch youth ball. I don't know. Yeah,
all right, we'll take a break when right back I
lost the clock. Hold on, hold on, man, you're live. Yeah,

(48:51):
that was it, man, that's all. I don't really, I
don't know. Yeah, that's where we're at. We got a
game this coming weekend. We got two games left. Man,
we got to turn the season round, finish five hundred.
That's what we're hoping for. To go three and three
in our first season would be a huge success.

Speaker 2 (49:05):
And you said it wraps up win in two weeks.
Here's what you can hope. That'll be perfect. It goes
right into March Madness. Then this stuff with Keith, with
kid I'm gonna make poster boards. You bring the March
madness to the house. The kids get into it. It
invigorates them, just like Lebron and Luca loving the game again.

Speaker 1 (49:23):
Maybe they get it.

Speaker 2 (49:24):
It all just works together. Hopefully they keep that excitement.
Then in the offseason this right now, you almost got
to look at it as a wash.

Speaker 1 (49:31):
No, we're still excited. We still have fun. I mean,
that's what we're trying to do. Like we played. I mean,
I gotta tell you, I'm shocked you guys are doing
the score. Tell me how good this practice was. Yesterday.
I forgot to tell you this. We played Duck Duck
gooseummies Duck duck goose basketball version. So they dribble the
ball around the circle. Another person everybody in the circle

(49:52):
has a ball Duck duck duck goose, and whoever gets
hit goose has to start dribbling and dribble around the
surf and chase them around the circles they're dribbling. If
they get back to their spot's really good.

Speaker 2 (50:03):
Boom, dude, Yes, So you had to come up with
the dumb ass stuff to keep them entertained. You're not
running plays and doing conditioning. These kids don't need a
condition at this age.

Speaker 1 (50:12):
There's two. They don't need conditioning because they got putty energy.

Speaker 2 (50:15):
These are the only two things I remember from basketball
at that age. You got to try one of them.
I'm just telling you. The one is where I told
you a kid needs to bark like a dog in
the middle of the lane, and then that distracts and
you run a play to the basket. But he just
gets on his knees and starts barking and all the
other kids are looking and then boom, you be lining it.
To the right, get to the hoop, get a basket.

Speaker 1 (50:34):
It works once. I'll do it. Okay, I'll do it
this weekend. That's one thing.

Speaker 2 (50:38):
Yes, you got to get a kid just faking like
they're a dog, going as loud as they can. So
then kids look and then boom. Then you pass it.
It works every time. The other thing, tell the kids
to write down a mistake on a piece of paper. Hey,
what do you think you did wrong?

Speaker 1 (50:51):
What do you think?

Speaker 2 (50:51):
This is what I remember from four year old basketball?

Speaker 1 (50:53):
What did you do wrong? What'd you do wrong?

Speaker 2 (50:55):
All the kids write down bad pass? Didn't make a basket?
D you take them all? Put them in a coffee
Can you bring a lighter with you? Light that bitch
on fire?

Speaker 1 (51:06):
What is that? Dad?

Speaker 2 (51:07):
None of those matter? Okay, let's change it now. I
don't remember exactly how he outr damn.

Speaker 1 (51:12):
That's pretty good, man. But they're all on fire. That's
really good.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
And it's in a coffee can, so it's not going
to start a fire in the basketball court. But it
shocks them all and you're like, because guess what.

Speaker 1 (51:20):
None of those matter. They're all ashes.

Speaker 2 (51:22):
Now.

Speaker 1 (51:22):
It's in the past. I remember it from four years
old dude. So it's pretty legit. Dude. We're like, coach
just started a fire and a coffee kid, that's pretty good.
It goes out on its own.

Speaker 2 (51:34):
You're not going to start like a you know, gym fire. Okay,
I like it, you guys, that's the type of stuff.
It's something that they're going to remember off value, right, Yes,
get their attention. Yes, all right, Well happy Wednesday, everybody.

Speaker 1 (51:45):
We're out of here. I mean, no football to talk about.

Speaker 2 (51:48):
I mean, coach started a fire at practice today in
a coffee can what what?

Speaker 1 (51:52):
What the okay? The league calls me, Hey, parents been
requesting to get off your team, saying you're turning their
kids into pyromaniacs.

Speaker 2 (52:00):
I'm sorry, maybe you gotta throw I remember our coach too,
He would let a couple I don't need it was
an F but he'd definitely say a little S or.

Speaker 1 (52:06):
A D every once in a while. Okay, you let
us swear words.

Speaker 2 (52:09):
Slip tournament. Come on, sorry kids for saying that. Come on,
just get them fired up. It's something they're not expecting.

Speaker 1 (52:17):
I do like that, all right? Anything else you got
anything going on?

Speaker 2 (52:21):
No man, no man, Bazer dude, they make her she's
been working from home. She had to commute. She said
they would commute in traffic hour and a half.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
She had to commute.

Speaker 2 (52:31):
Yeah, they just they're doing a couple things in the office. Oh,
HiT's me up, almost the same drive. My drive's twenty minutes.
Hers in traffic is an hour and a half. She goes,
it's brutal. I'm quitting tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (52:44):
I'm like, totally kidding.

Speaker 2 (52:45):
She's not quitting, but she goes, Dude, this traffic is
this traffic is awful. And I'm like, yeah, it's pretty bad.
But working from home, you save yourself an hour and
a half on the front end and the back end.

Speaker 1 (52:55):
Yeah, it's three hours of your day. Man. I just
those people are sitting in traffic. That sucks for them.
But all right, we out hell of a amen. Yeah,
let's go. Did they do that golf thing again? That
that indoor golf? If they do it again?

Speaker 2 (53:11):
One of my buddies hit me up and he goes,
you've been watching this TPC And I'm like, what the
fuck is TPC?

Speaker 1 (53:16):
He goes that Tiger Woods golf. That's so stupid watching.
I mean, if anybody's watching, they gotta get help. They're
into a simulator. Man, it's not even fun. I don't
understand it.

Speaker 2 (53:28):
I saw the only clip I've seen Colin moriy Kala
hit one and it glitched and he got lucky and
the ball didn't.

Speaker 1 (53:33):
Roll off the cliff and he just goes, huh, it glitched.

Speaker 2 (53:36):
But I guess in this league it can glitch and
you're good.

Speaker 1 (53:39):
I don't know. I don't I don't understand. I don't
understand how this is the next big thing. It's not.
They spent a lot of money on it.

Speaker 2 (53:48):
Rich people spend their money on the dumbest things.

Speaker 1 (53:52):
Goodbye.
