I don't think I don't think we went from one guest to the next in back-to-back episodes. That's something different. Jax: Yeah. we had to for this time. It's we got we got special special special person in the house right now. Greg: Special guest in the building. Shout out to my to my guy, Jordan Booker. Jay Book. Welcome to the show, my brother. Holds up, three pointer. Bang! Bang! It's good. Wins the game at the buzzard. Absolutely. Absolutely. Absolutely. Absolutely, man. Welcome, welcome to the pod. This is part two.

We're excited to be here today. with it. Greg: Now we're up. And he's back now. Shout out to the shout out to the watch hours. Shout out shout out to the community. Shout out to the monetization.

Greg: You get hey, you could get on this platform too if you donate. I'm lying. Kingjordnabook: Pay to play. Greg: But yeah. You gotta ask and then we have a we have a vote. If somebody says no, you're done. I can say yes and Jack says no, you're not coming on. If there's one no, done. There's no majority rules. The no is the majority. But Jax: Really just gotta ask, but neither here nor there. Yeah. ⁓ Kingjordnabook: Thank you. Greg: ⁓ like I said, this is a podcast for casuals. If you are a casual, this is the show for you. ⁓ let's let's go ahead and get into it because we do have a lot to talk about. But there are some things that we just don't care about to the to the extent that we probably need to, but we don't. If this button will push, push, nigga. We do not care. First things first. Tay Rozier. ⁓ again. This nigga won't get off. I might as well just hey, I ain't gonna lie to you. My shit didn't update on my side. Like the list at first. Terry Rosier was on there. I come up there. It's just Terry Rosier with more words behind it. It's like you're back, you're back. But ⁓ Jax has a little bit more information on this one. What's going on? He has to give money back? Jax: Yeah. Yeah, right. Yeah. Yeah, he's still involved in the whole federal case about the gambling and stuff. And they found out that he bet like a hundred thousand dollars, I think, on himself or something like that. But anyways, he's gonna have to give back his salary for this season. So that means he has to give back twenty six point six million dollars. Ex Exactly. Exactly. Like I don't Kingjordnabook: We're 100k? Oh, nah. Jax: I don't get it, bro. I don't know what's I don't know why he did all this stuff with was it it's clearly not worth it, Terry. Cause you're probably going to jail. Had you just had to give back twenty-six million dollars. And then apparently there's also rumors that I I do not know how substantiated these are. These are literally just rumors, but they're saying ⁓ Eric Spostra was the one who was the head coach of the Heat, he was the one who put the ⁓ the NBA on to like Terry Rozier's trail. And they said because of that Terry Rosier's friends might have burned down Eric Sposter's house 'cause his Eric Sposter's house did get burned down, I think like sometime last year. So people are trying to connect those down there. I don't know how true that is, but that's what people are saying. And it's just Terry was any of this worth it, Terry. 'Cause it Greg: The nigga said Nigga said Spo sposter sposter put the hit out? Crazy. Jax: Over his the course of his career he's made like over a hundred million dollars. I don't get why you need to gamble like this, but Kingjordnabook: Go Greg: And you and you was gambling over a hundred thousand dollars. All this for a hundred K? Jax: Is now. Kingjordnabook: 26 million. Jax: It's not worth it. And you're going and you're going to jail probably. So Greg: Should it? Should have took should took that dinner with Jay Z. Should have done that, should it? Kingjordnabook: He took 70,000 broad to lead a game early. Is that the, that's not terrible. Jax: He he's made he's made over a hundred million dollars in his MBA career. Greg: ⁓ What which what you need the seventy K for? Just go hoop. Just go hoop like a regular human being. Jax: Now you gotta now you gotta give ⁓ thirty million dollars back. I'm not giving no thirty million, nothing back. Greg: You gotta give you gotta give thirty million dollars and you might serve jail. You might serve jail jail time? Kingjordnabook: ⁓ That's crazy. Jax: Yeah. Greg: All this for seventy K? Jax: I don't know. Kingjordnabook: feel like this has been on raps for real. Greg: Yeah, it's it's getting it's getting crazy. But next, because I feel like Terry Rosier will be a a constant conversation in in the we do not care. I actually wanna keep him there. And until he sent it, I just want to keep him there just in case we get more updates by the week. This is my Diana Roussini. I am invested. Next. We do not care. more gambling. Jax: Until until he's finished. Yeah. Greg: Alabama State. Don't know if y'all heard about that. Alabama State, they ⁓ I did the twenty twenty four, twenty five season. They got three or four ⁓ basketball players ⁓ that Kingjordnabook: Yeah. Greg: They are accused of throwing one of their March Madness games. Or not it wasn't a March Madness game. It wasn't a March Madness game. It was one of their regular season games that happened in December against Southern Miss. ⁓ they were paid a total of two thousand dollars to throw that game. Kingjordnabook: Thanks. $2,000. Jax: Like they had to split two thousand. Greg: So these four players split two thousand dollars. Jax: What do we do? Greg: That's the only reason why I put it on We Do Not Cause was like, is one thing, 2,000 was already low because I feel like people's per DMs would be more than that sometimes. But you're splitting two bands amongst four people, that's $500. Jax: Yeah. That's insane, bro. What are we doing, Doc? That's insane. Greg: Nigga, I had I had more I had more money on my cougar cash card. That's crazy. Five five hundred to throw that game. Cause at first I was like, March Madness, because they they I think they had like a I think they won their first ever March Madness game, I think, that year, because they did really good. But it was like the first it was like the first four out or the last four in one of them games. And in my mind, I was just like Jax: Yeah. Greg: If you was throwing a March Madness game, you wasn't gonna win that anyway. Why is somebody paying you to like play extra bad? You were gonna lose against Duke or whoever the fuck you gonna play. You're a 16th seed. But then once I found out it was a a regular season game, I was just like five hundred dollars? Jax: That's not worth like what what? None of this is worth it. Like, I don't fucking get it. What's wrong with them? What's wrong with all these people who are doing all this stuff? Like, they're all making I don't know about the Alabama State, but like ⁓ the quarterbacks and all they're making good NIL money. Like Terry Rozier, he's making good just like NBA money in general. Like, none of this is worth it. Y'all are already rich, bro. Like, ⁓ Greg: Mind you that Kingjordnabook: police. Mm. Greg: Somebody could give you five hundred dollars. Like Jax: A booster could have gave you five hundred dollars, like it'd have been fine, it's been illegal now. Kingjordnabook: but Greg: A church a a church a church could have did that. Your pastor could have did that. Jax: Ha ha ha. Kingjordnabook: for regular scholarship. Greg: If I hey, if I if I loved you enough, me and Jax could have gave you that. We won't. But we had we had the equity to do that for you. You know what I mean? That's crazy. I that was that was insane. I had to put that out there because it don't matter how small the money is, niggas is getting to the bag in the worst way possible. In the worst way possible. Jax: Yeah, not going to, but Kingjordnabook: Mm. Jax: Get into the bag and fumbling it. Get into the bag and f finding out the bag is on finding out the bag is a bomb, actually. Kingjordnabook: And they didn't even play last season, so I guess that they've been to them. So that's crazy. Greg: ⁓ yeah, the co I think the ⁓ the coach stepped down that next ⁓ that following season, because that n I guess that nigga knew. ⁓ who was up. But like I said, a total of 2000. And one and I'll I'll say this. One thing I don't like, and I'm not saying for the high profile cases it doesn't it doesn't happen because it's not like I'm super tapped in on the Terry Rozier case or whatever. But for like Alabama State, yo, you need to start ⁓ you you need you need to start Kingjordnabook: to be. Greg: Out in these betters and investors. I need to know the names of people that's given up the two bands. Like, hey, who who is out here giving out the money, disputing, dispersing the money? I need them in the headlines too. Not just the athlete. Because what what are you betting on? What was your payout? Kingjordnabook: true. Jax: Yeah, 'cause I'm like, if if you've been on Alabama State to throw a game like and you're only giving them two thousand dollars like the payout had to be crazy, I feel like. Greg: Against Southern Miss, what was Yeah. That's what I'm saying. And I think and I think they only found out due to like some text messages in in an investigation or something crazy. I'm like, okay. All right. ⁓ all right. Jax: Maybe we'd like to move far later. Kingjordnabook: They tripped and they should have left no text messages. Jax: Nobody knows how to do crime properly anymore. Everybody leaving paper trails and emails and this, that, and the ther. Like we need to we need to get back to our roots, America. Do real do some real crime. Greg: No. It's bad. Or just be law abiding citizens. We could just be hey, we could just be good people. You know, I mean I'm I'm open to that idea. I actually I actually I actually so I actually support it. We do not care. Steph signs a shoe deal. Is this the correct name? I don't wanna I don't Jax: Or stop gambling. Either or one of those, I don't know. Either or Kingjordnabook: Yeah. We need to do some crimes for real! Jax: Yes, that's right. Yeah. What you mean, like Greg: Like Li Ning, that's the Jax: Yeah, that's the that's the Asian one that D Way had his shoes with. Greg: Okay, I I just wanna I just wanted to make sure I I you know, I just wanna make sure I wasn't saying nothing races or none. But he signed a deal with Lee Ning. Ten years, four hundred million dollars. ⁓ Jax: Okay. Yeah. They also gave him control of like they gave him control. He's gonna like his own he's gonna be able to sign people to his own not label, but ⁓ his own brand and he also has like his own golf division as well. Cause apparently he's like a really like amazing golfer as well. So there's that Greg: I don't have any words for that. He's a he's ⁓ he's a big a he's a good ass golfer, man. He's he's solid. Jax: Yeah, so people thought he was gonna go to Nike 'cause he was just been a shoe free agent after Under Armour ⁓ didn't renew his contra or after he didn't renew his contract with Under Armour, so people thought he was gonna go to Nike, but he like, No, let me do something even crazier. So I guess Greg: Nah, people don't know the people don't know the lore if they thought he was going to Nike. Kingjordnabook: They messed up his name on like an interview or something. So. Greg: They messed up it they messed up his name in the interview and they wouldn't let him put anything ⁓ they wouldn't let him write anything religious on his shoe during that time. Like, yo, can I put a cross like can I can I draw ⁓ a crush or can I write my ⁓ my scripture on the back of my shoe and they were like, No nigga. He was like, Okay, well I'm gonna go to Yeah, they wouldn't let him write like the religious stuff. You can write stuff Jax: They won't let him write anything. It's my shoe. Like I own the shoe now. I can why can't I do what I want with it? Greg: And that's why he went to Under Armour. Like he was supposed to be with Nike ⁓ to begin with. So ⁓ just off of the strength of that, I knew he wasn't gonna be at Nike. But I didn't know he was gonna go to Jalen Brown. Well, isn't this is not even the Jalen Brown route. Jalen Brown just made his own. He made his own brand. D Wade route for sure. So ⁓ I'm not I'm not mad at it. Good for him. ⁓ Jax: Hey, there's a They don't buy many zones. This is the the D Way route. Greg: All this really tells me is he gonna have another animated movie or show. That's all that that's all that really tells me. When when he get into the bag and he's he's Jax: Yeah, he he he getting to the money a little bit too much now. So he gon he gonna just he gonna get bored and wanna do some shit now. So yeah. Greg: Yeah, he he he he around them animated niggas now, so yeah this this is this is only scratching the surface is only the beginning. So shout out to him, I guess. How mu how how much longer he got left in the league? Kingjordnabook: Oh, that's fine. Jax: Steph? How old is Steph? 'Cause he not his game gonna age well cause he's a shooter. You say he's thirty six? Kingjordnabook: Hello. Greg: Thirty six. I think so. Jax: I could see him doing like four or five more years. Kingjordnabook: ⁓ don't talk about the goat like that. Jax: ⁓ he's thirty eight. I didn't thirty eight? I didn't realize that. Greg: Thirty eight. Wow. ⁓ he was thirty he was thirty six during the ⁓ Olympic, ⁓ the Olympic run. My bad. It's been thirty thirty. Jax: He's he stayed in college three years, so Kingjordnabook: Give him 10 years, he got 10 months. Jax: I mean shoot only once he gets he's he's always gonna be able to shoot no matter what. So people always gonna be afraid of that. So that's why I'm like he can last as low key as long as he wants, as long as his body holds up. And as long as the Warriors aren't 'cause I don't think he's not gonna leave the Warriors, I don't think, 'cause Greg: Tim more. Yeah, he's he's too old now. He's not trying to move for real. Jax: Yeah, so as long as the Warriors are competitive, he's gonna be there. So Greg: But I mean as long as he's o as long as he's there, he the team will be competitive. Kingjordnabook: Ray Maude! Jax: In a week. Greg: I think once Draymond leaves, then he leaves. Let's last nigga love. Jax: I think he's gonna do one year without Draymond and then leave. Because Draymond Draymond's gonna leave soon. I don't know when Draymond's retiring soon. Kingjordnabook: Dream hard. Greg: I think he I think he I think he retires with Draymond. Unless they get a superstar back. Like if Giannis comes over there, then I'm like, okay, well this this extends another four more seasons. But Draymond gone and it's just him and Pods left, nigga. I'm I'm done. I'm I'm hanging it up. Jax: Yeah. Yeah, but I don't think it And the Steve Steve Kerr I don't think Steve Kerr coming back this year, is he? Greg: No, he already he already said he's coming back. They signed him to like a two year or something like that. Kingjordnabook: I think I liked. Jax: Okay, baby, babe. Well Steve well whenever Steve Kerr leaves, when they're all leaving at the same time probably. Which is really that's what that's what the Spurs should have done, but Pop wanted to keep coaching and I can't hate on him for that. So yeah. Greg: You right. That nigga wanna coach right now. But we'll get to it. That nigga nigga distraught right now. But let's get into the things that we finally care about. We're gonna start with some football, some NFL talk. ⁓ it's off season. You know what happens in the off season? Niggas make tough decisions. Like, should I stay, should I leave? And that boy Russ, Russell Wilson, is retiring from the game of football. Kingjordnabook: and I'll see Yes. Greg: after signing his CBS contract. I don't know how many years that that CBS contract is, but he's he's he's hanging up the jersey. Jax: Yeah. So Russ Wilson, he's a Super Bowl champion, two time NFC champion, 10 Pro Bowls, man of the year. He has forty six thousand passing yards, sixteenth all time. Russ people hate on Russ, especially towards the end of his career, because like the Broncos run was trash, and then the Giants run was even more trash. But like them Seahawks years, he was tough. And in my eyes, I honestly think he's a Hall of Famer. I don't know how other people feel about that. That's just how I feel. But yeah, I'm going to I'm a I'm a miss seeing Russ because I really I Russ was one of my favorite quarterbacks to watch. When he was when he was good of course, he's not really or he's not good no more, sort of while he retired. But like in his prime, bro, Russ was electric to watch. Kingjordnabook: Yeah. ⁓ Greg: Yeah, Prime Russ, Prime Russ was that was a different nigga. Like ⁓ like during that time after the the the Legion of Boom kind of like left and it was just that let that left that less ⁓ let russ cook error, man, great times. I I felt I saw a little bit of that against ⁓ when they played the Cowboys in week two. Now, granted I think that was more Cowboys defense being ash. Jax: Yeah, he got better. Kingjordnabook: It was good. I feel like we've the game. Jax: Yeah. Greg: But it was just like just just seeing that that vintage rush for one last time, I I can't take it for granted. That boy was hooping, like four hundred yards. I mean. Kingjordnabook: true. And I think it should be two Super Bowl championships, if we're being honest. You know what I mean? And honestly, I think the NFL pushed him up. I think he had like three more years. Jax: Yeah. ⁓ my gosh. Greg: I mean look, if you if you run that goddamn ball, yeah. I wouldn't say that. I don't Jax: I'm not mad at that though. I'm not mad at what Book is saying though, because low like because with all due respect, Jackson Dark is not a good quarterback. I don't care what nobody I don't care what nobody says. Jackson Dart is not a good quarterback. I think Russ could have started above him and sort of achieved similar results. Greg: No, he le he couldn't start over Jameis Winston. That's the problem. Like, cause stop skipping over Jameis. You know what I mean? Now, now now if he played, now if he played with now if he was with the Cleveland Browns or or or like the Minnesota Vikings without Kyler Murray there, maybe we're cooking. Hell, leave it, maybe and maybe even the Falcons. Depending on how you feel. Jax: You're right about that. You're right. Kingjordnabook: I don't know y'all. Jax: ⁓ yeah, best quarterback on the team. They were the first thing. Greg: Maybe. I don't know what the Dolphins look like right now. ⁓ there's a few teams where it's like it can make sense, but I I just think he never recovered with that that Sean Payton shit, man. I think Sean Payton really gave gave that nigga bad PR. He gave that nigga bad PR. 'Cause he really wasn't all that bad ⁓ with the Steelers. Like he wasn't horrible with the Steelers. That wasn't a bad that wasn't like a bad stint for him. So Jax: So I mean didn't do ⁓ yeah, I forgot about the school year. But also he had Mike Tomman as coach, so Mike Tomman is different. Yeah. Y'all think he's gonna get in the Hall of Fame? 'Cause I said I I think he's in the Hall of Fame, but Greg: But also true. Also true. Gotta you get Kingjordnabook: Yes. Greg: Yeah, I think there's no question. I just think it's gonna take a little minute for ⁓ people to kind of forget that stench of ⁓ the Broncos, cause that that Broncos stench was fucking it was bad. It was it was bad and and Sean Payne didn't help. But as soon as they start rerunning them highlights of Russ ⁓ from twenty thirteen to twenty eighteen. Jax: For the last few years. Yeah, no, I was Yeah. Greg: Niggas gonna remember. They'll they'll they'll they'll remember. Jax: Like he might not be first valid, but he one thousand one thousand percent deserves to get in. Greg: This is this is when NFL Films needs to start doing his job. This is when they do the American football story or whatever the hell the foot them niggas do. I I I need one of those so he can get into the Hall of Fame. But I think he's gonna I think he'll easily get into the Hall of Fame. It may not be first ballot, but he's gonna get in there. Jax: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Greg: And he has year. Jax: Yeah, that's another reason. Like I got Sierra, I got a bunch of kids, bro. I'm my football legacy is solidified no matter what nobody think about it, bro, I can go ahead and retire. So he's gonna be he's gonna be living life. Greg: ⁓ for sure. I'm not mad at that. ⁓ somebody that hasn't retired just yet. OBJ. Odell Beckham Jr. signing with the Giants, New York. New York stand up. It just keeps getting better. ⁓ absolutely. This is a definitely a life-changing move right here. ⁓ all this really tells me, all this really tells me. Kingjordnabook: He's definitely still a childhood legend. Hey, this is life changing up right here. Jax: Is it though? Greg: Malik Neighbors is not there yet. Wherever the part wherever the injury is at right now, still got a little bit more time to go. I don't know what that timetable is, but I don't know. Jax: ⁓ yeah, I seen there was like a video of him at like a celebrity like baseball game or whatever. He was running he didn't look good. I was like, dang, he might actually have like some his injury might not have healed properly or something. Cause I I I thought he just tore his ACL, but I guess it might have been some more shit. Greg: Yeah. Nah, he he tore he tore more than that, but ACL was the biggest thing. But he tore a few stuff in this body. but I mean I think I think Odell is probably the r the right person to be around during that tornado that nigga tore his ACL. He could probably go through the rehab process with you of like what steps to avoid or what what what to not do. Jax: Yeah. But they also play with the Giants. The Giants got like that terrible field that everybody hates and everybody gets hurt on. So that's that's what I'm like. They play at the same place. Exactly like Greg: ⁓ I thought it was a Jets. I thought that was a Jets. ⁓ shit, my bad. My fault. Why did they share that? That's crazy. I hate when people share ⁓ stadiums. ⁓ that's why ⁓ yeah, that's crazy. But like I said, is he gonna be like some impact old OBJ ass nigga? No. But Jax: Is that yeah, both people? Kingjordnabook: Well, Jax: 'Cause he's he's thirty three and he's had like three ACL tears, so I guess. Greg: You know, sometimes sometimes you need a person the ⁓ personality higher to, you know, boost the morale, bro. New York is in a good place right now. Just let's just keep adding to the good vibes, bro. Crime is at a all time low. This is gonna help. Jax: All right, wait, wait till the giant season starts. It's gonna go gonna go right back up. Kingjordnabook: Hmm Greg: Look, fine. This is this is okay. Look, it's just a matter of who's going to increase it first. The Giants or the Jets. And I think the Jets will do it first. Jax: I don't think niggas care about the Jets for real. Cause the the Jets have always been garbage. Except for like when they had what's the nigga's name? No, like the dude like the old old guy who was on like the sidelines with like Yeah, that was the only time they was good when they had Joe name it. And that was like fifty years ago. Kingjordnabook: Let's see. Greg: Yeah. Mark Sanchez. Joe Name? The Jets really i ⁓ the Jets are really really are the nuts. Like they be having opportunities. They'll get a big star and it just don't pan out. Crazy. Crazy, crazy, crazy. But ⁓ How book, how do you feel about this? Kingjordnabook: I had a couple thoughts. First of all, I hope he stays healthy because every other year he's been hurt, ACL, knee injury. He got banned last year from the drugs. ⁓ So that was sad. But I'm excited though. I'm ready to see his live videos on Instagram again. And I'm ready to see what he produces. Jax: Yeah. Ha ha. Kingjordnabook: and finish the games with his video. Greg: This nigga said, I'm ready for his TikToks again. Nigga said the streets need you. Kingjordnabook: Man, what? Greg: Nah, that's real though. That's real. ⁓ shout out to his brother, former ⁓ Love Island contestant, ⁓ Cordel Cordell. But ⁓ you know. Jax: ⁓ my fucking. Kingjordnabook: That's like, was random. Jax: Are you watching the new you're not watching new season of La Vada, are you? Are any of y'all Kingjordnabook: Nah. Greg: You talking to me? ⁓ my girl is watching it and she is giving me cliff notes. And ⁓ she will tell me when to watch when something dramatic happens. So I'll I'll I'll I'll probably tap in to singular episodes. It probably won't be a start to finish for me. Jax: Yeah, both yeah, I'm not. They be I think they drop they only drop a c like an episode every single day. Like that's too I try watching it's too much, bro. I'm not doing that shit. I'm not I don't wanna watch that no more. I don't care about nothing. Greg: Yeah. Kingjordnabook: the action. Greg: Yeah, I I heard it like I think ⁓ my girl told me there was a a paraplegic on there. I was like, Okay. Y'all yell y'all are expanding our horizons. Kingjordnabook: It is. Jax: I guess, bro. I'm not gonna say Greg: There was a there was a there was a it was a four ⁓ a police officer that quit his job to do this, to to go on Love Island. And I think the mayor or whatever, like he put out a a statement saying that he was like very disappointed that he like Kingjordnabook: He was Hayden. Jax: The mayor of the city. Was it a small city? I hope it was a small city. Kingjordnabook: That was a big city. Greg: What'd you thought it was? What'd you thought it was? Harris County nigga? I don't know Jax: Like I c I couldn't imagine the mayor being like this one singular police officer pissed the mayor off. Greg: I was like, how much how how much positive shit would you doing in the community for the mayor to step in and say, Hey, nigga, I'm I'm a little disappointed? That's Jax: Yeah. I I guess. Kingjordnabook: The city was Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, so it wasn't that big. Greg: ⁓ okay. Beth Bethlehem. Yeah. I got it. Jax: I don't even know they made one of those in Pennsylvania, but Greg: And one of them contestants has kid has a kid. So they didn't learn from Huda. They didn't they didn't learn from Huda. Somebody's twenty nine on there. I think that's too old. Kingjordnabook: different Jax: It's a it's a lot going on. It's a lot going on. Kingjordnabook: We try to find love. Greg: It is a lot going on. And Jax, I I'll keep I'll keep I'll you said what? Kingjordnabook: They trying to find love, 29 not bad. Jax: To go on that show, I feel like it is bad 'cause like all them be like twenty two and stuff like that. Greg: ⁓ okay. twenty nine, you need to graduate into love. Love is blind. Married at first sight. When you're twenty nine, you don't do Love Ireland. Love Ireland, that c ⁓ to me, I feel like that cutoff is twenty five, twenty six. You're Jax: Young young I for Love Islands for the Young Hoes. Greg: Absolutely. Absolutely. That cook on high heat. No, I mean, throw everything in the laundry. Full load of laundry. Overflow. But yeah, it's it's ⁓ it'll be alright though. But anyway, moving forward to some more news. Somebody that you know shocked the world, you know, this this kind of shocked the NFL world. Kingjordnabook: This is crazy. Okay. Jax: Some bigger. Greg: When it happened. Miles Garrett, a Los Angeles Ram. Jax: I didn't even know they wanted like I knew Miles Garrett requested the trade. I didn't even know the Rams was trying to do I didn't know the Rams was in it for real. I didn't Greg: I don't I don't even think the Rams thought they were in it either. The way the way the way Eric Berry was going at it. The way out here out here talking to Sam Prestey. But I'm gonna let you get it off first. I'm gonna let you get it off first. Jax: Nigga. Yeah, but ⁓ as you can tell from the visuals, obviously, ⁓ the ⁓ Browns traded Miles Garrett, who's one of like the ten best defensive players ever, possibly. They traded him to the who's still in his prime, because I think he's still just thirty, I believe. Maybe he's thirty-one. But ⁓ yeah, he's only thirty. So they traded him to the Los Angeles Rams in exchange for Jared Verts, who was a younger than Miles Garrett, yeah, but he's still really good ⁓ and as well. Greg: Third yeah. Jax: But they got Jared Verse, a 2027 first round pick. They got Jared Verse, a 2027 first round pick, then a 2028 second round pick, and a 2029 third round pick. I sort of like how they did that with that deal. But ⁓ this is just like a win now move for the Rams because Matthew Stafford is damn near 40. If he's not 40 already and he also has back problems, so they're trying to just go ahead and leave it all on the field right now because they still got Devontae Adams who's good but old. Puka Nicole's there. Like I said, I was just surprised this happened. I'm not gonna lie to you. I didn't shit, man. And now they're saying Aaron Donald also might come back, which if like Miles Garrett is one of the probably like I said, he's probably one of the ten best defensive players ever. Aaron Donald might be one of the five best defensive players ever. And like Aaron Donald, he retired at like thirty two, so he's been out the league for a couple of seasons, but Greg: ⁓ wow. Jax: He retired healthy. Like, he didn't have any crazy injury history or anything like that. He could still be playing right now. So the fact that people are trying they're trying to convince him to come back is a very ⁓ a very frightening thing for any offensive lineman ever because nobody can nobody was able no one's ever been able to block Miles Garrett. And no one's ever been able to block Aaron Donald. Having both of them niggas on your team, the And for a Rams defense that's already good is nah, they they could go back. They could go win the Super Bowl. Like that's what they did this move for. So shit. That's cra I don't know. Greg: This is what this is what JJ Watt and Jadavion Clowney was supposed to be. Not gonna lie to you. That's what I that's what I envisioned when them boys got drafted together. I was like, ⁓ like, this is gonna be unstoppable. Didn't pan out that way, but in my mind, I feel like this is a lot more realistic. Miles Garrett and Aaron Donald. I remember I I saw ⁓ I don't know if I saw a podcast or an interview, but like Kingjordnabook: Thanks a lot. Jax: Yeah. Kingjordnabook: in that. Greg: Aaron Donald came into the the league with the mindset of I'm only gonna play eight years no matter what. It was like it just so happened that his eighth year they won a Super Bowl, but he was gonna retire on his eighth year regardless. So it had nothing to do with like any health or anything like that. So a lot of people were just kind of like, if he can get a spark back, if he you know, if he has that feeling or that urge to like, you know, get it in there one more time, you know. Jax: Yeah. Greg: And I feel like he has a very supportive family. Like it's not like on some on some Tom Brady shit, like, it's either your family or or football. It's not one of those things. I think they're very I think they're also encouraging him, like, hey, if you want to, you could go back. Nigga, like, hey, we we not gonna be mad if you go back. So I I think he has it's very weird. I think he actually has a support system to like do it if he wants to, which is not Jax: Yeah. Greg: Normally the case when somebody retires and then unretires, there's like a lot of people that are not happy about this family or internally. So we'll see. We'll see. It's like when Rocky Balboa, like it it feels like one of those movies. This sh this shit feel like a movie. Yeah, let's just do it one more time, Rock. Jax: It should feel like the damn Aven if he comes back, it's like the damn Avengers. Like, and then they t they talk about like if Aaron Donald gets his spark back. Like he's have you seen the videos of him working out? Like, has the spark ever let like that nigga? He just be he throws around like the one fifty like it's nothing for real. Like, I don't get and then Aaron Don he's not even like and Aaron Donald, he's been a defensive tackle. Like normally though those guys are like six, three, three hundred pounds. Aaron Donald said he played at like Kingjordnabook: It's good. Greg: Yeah. Jax: six feet and ⁓ two sixty like Aaron Donald's just stronger than niggas bro he's just better I don't get it. He's just better than niggas so Greg: Yeah, he was definitely not he definitely wasn't like the tallest thing ever. Ever. Damn. Kingjordnabook: It's different from the school. But I would say with a gear being traded, like after breaking the record, after being the best, that's like you, that's like Jax writing the best story ever. We love it, we love it, we love it. Or great doing the best thing ever. like, all right, you get fired the next day. So I don't know. I think that's very crazy. Jax: I mean, Miles Garrett, he had wanted to trade for like his imagine the c like imagine you play for the Cleveland Brown. Like, yes, you're the bet one of the best ever, making a whole lot of money, but y'all just lose every single season. I think he's been to the playoffs like one time maybe. And like maybe maybe twice, maybe. Greg: Yeah. Yeah. Twenty twenty two. Yeah. Jax: But like that's it. He got nothing to show for. And then like he's like Miles Garrett by himself is so good that your team could never like tank all the way because he can single handedly like win you some games. Like he's had like multiple like five sack games before and stuff. So like that's the type of player he is. So I get wanting to be moved. And I think his girl, like the the ⁓ what's the soccer or no, she's a skater or snowboarder or something like that. She lives in LA too, so that works out for them too. But I would want to move too if I was him, bro. It's the Browns would have been a terrible organization. And also it's fucking Cleveland. So Yeah. Greg: It's Cleveland, for sure. I mean, I feel like from a Jared Verse standpoint, I feel bad I feel bad for J Verz, I'm not gonna lie. Jax: I did at first but then I found out he's from Cleveland. So I didn't feel that bad anymore. No, 'cause I'm just saying like he's at least familiar with like the city and the area and all that. So I'm like, I'm not mad at that. Going back to his people. Greg: Okay. LeBron is very familiar with Akron. Not trying to go back. Jax: He liked it so much he went back he came back to Akron. Or came back to sleeping. So he's going and he's going back again. But we'll we'll get to that we get into the 'cause LeBron's going back to Leonard. He's go he's going back to sleeping. Greg: That nigga not leaving LA. You this nigga sweat. Allegedly. Allegedly. Allegedly, nigga. I guess, nigga. We'll we'll see. We'll see how it goes. But I'm just saying from a sense of, I don't care what the terrains is. Nigga, you leaving LA. You you leaving LA and you're going to Cleveland. Yes, he's from Ohio. But damn, nigga, Cincinnati right there, too. All right. It had to be Cleveland my n it had to be Cleveland. ⁓ so Kingjordnabook: to you now. Jax: Maybe he wanna you wanna put his wrist up with Shador in them, bro. Greg: Maybe, hey, maybe so. Maybe he'll embrace it a lot better. But I knew I knew for him it was just one of those things where like he was probably excited that Miles Garrett was gonna be on the team. And then immediately afterwards, it's like, ⁓ I'm the one that's getting traded. Fuck. Okay. That sucks. So, I mean, going to Cleveland, we'll see how it goes. ⁓ that nigga already took Dylan Gabriel's number. Jax: They want to get in the cars with this one, like, I don't know. Kingjordnabook: I time is up. Jax: Which is very Greg: That was fucking hilarious. They were just like they thought Jared Versus won't like have to pay ⁓ pay like Dylan Gabriel. And it was like, ⁓ I won't, I'll I'll have it in no time. They were both wearing number eight in OTAs. I was just like, yeah, Dylan Gabriel's out of here, yo. They finna cut. They finna cut. Yeah, and they and they hated his girl for talking. Girl was yapping on that. Jax: No, I think I'll just take it. Bro, they hated Dylan Gabriel. That was the one of the worst draft picks ever. 'Cause nobody likes Hallelujah. Greg: Girl, is you having on that TikTok? You can't have a Matthew Stafford wife and then be Dylan Gabriel bad. One gotta give. Jax: Yeah. Kingjordnabook: He definitely has the jersey. Greg: We give that we don't give that grace to young players. We don't. But ⁓ next up, AJ Brown finally leaving ⁓ the Philadelphia Eagles and is a New England Patriot. The man said he's always been a Patriots fan, allegedly. Jax: You see that you see that interview he gave? Like he gave he gave a interview with Maria Taylor and like they like panned down to like the floor and it was like a gigantic ass Patriots rug. And she was like, So you just always had this in your house? He was like, Yeah, I've always liked the Patriots, which is very crazy, but neither here nor there. ⁓ there's been a whole lot of stuff surrounding this whole AJ Brown thing in general, like Kingjordnabook: Thank you. Greg: Yeah. Yeah, I saw that. Jax: Especially like interpersonal drama that we're not gonna get into 'cause like it sounds like some real housewives of whatever Hollywood or whatever it sounds like one of them shows, like real housewives type shit. So we're not even gonna get into all that. But you know what? I'm glad AJ's not with the Eagles no more 'cause I'm a Cowboys fan. I ain't like the Eagles. The Eagles is mad good, so I'm I'm glad he's not there no more. But like Like I'm not I don't know. I I feel like no type of Greg: Didn't they didn't they say he leaked it didn't he say he leaked the information? Jax: ⁓ yeah, he did say in that interview he was like leaking information to like the public. So like like 'cause there he leaked some like critiques of like Jalen Hurts and other teammates and everything to sort of he said to use it to motivate the team 'cause if people heard that and they start asking questions, they'd have to do that. I d I don't know. I don't handling stuff like that is very weird. Doing it in that way is very weird, so But it's he just wanted to get out and he was willing to do whatever it took. And he finally got his way. This is really Diana Roussini's fault, but that's neither here nor there as well. But I mean he's going to the Patriots who needed a number one receiver because Stefan Diggs was good last season, but he's older. ⁓ AJ Brown's objectively better at this point in his career. Greg: Right. Jax: Drake May got him a number one receiver. He's reunited with Mike Grave, who was the first head coach who drafted him. Like, this is a real good pickup for the Patriots. Me personally, I ought to try to bleed him a little bit more, try to get something something else from them, but I guess. Kingjordnabook: first round. Greg: Yeah. But bo bo ⁓ book, I got a question for you. ⁓ this has nothing to do with AJ Brown. And I mean nothing. ⁓ do you cheat on your girl? Kingjordnabook: Was it? Greg: Right, you don't cheat on your girl. And I just I just wanted to start there. That's a that's a great checkbox, right? That's cool. Now Jax: What? Kingjordnabook: Okay. Greg: What would you do if you found out one of your homeboys was cheating on their girl? Like what what's your first reaction to like your one of your guy like y it's your guy's guy? Kingjordnabook: They're gonna have to talk to the godfors and if he don't stop, I might have to. Jax: Ha ha ha. Kingjordnabook: Yeah, I had to tell the missus like, but we got to talk to the homie first. Greg: Okay. Now you talk to the homie first, right? Okay. Cause it's it's it's it's blood, you know what I mean? Brother. Brother, okay. Now, say you have two guys like you two homies, two brothers, and you found out one of them brothers. was hidden on the person that your first brother was cheating on with. Like the the cheating girlfriend. Like how would how would you navigate that whole situation? Like you know that your home you know that your homie is cheating. You know that your homie's cheating. And the girl that he's cheating on or the the girl that he's cheating with, somebody else, the side chick. But what's her side chick? You find out one of your other homies is Kingjordnabook: W-w-w-what? Okay. Okay. Jax: Side check, the side. Greg: Holling at that same girl, that same exact side chick. Kingjordnabook: Okay. Greg: How do you move about a situation like that with your homies? You being you being in a friendship. You know, that's a great question, Buck. That's a great question. That's an amazing question. That's a perfect answer. So we we so. Kingjordnabook: I know why I'm lying. Jax: That's the perfect answer. That's the perfect answer. Because that's exactly what people are saying happened with the Eagles. Kingjordnabook: Zilla? Zilla, I should know. Or Gears. Jax: That's that's exactly what people are saying happen with the Eagles. Greg: So would you relay any information or would you just not say anything? Kingjordnabook: Hey, most times I wouldn't know, like, you know, I'm not sure. I'm not sure. Greg: That's a good Hey this hey this nigga book is hooping, y'all. This nigga is hooping. ⁓ my god. Holds up three pointers. Bang! Bang! It's good! Wins the game at the buzzer! Yeah, like I said, this has nothing to do with AJ Brown. I just wanted to I I just wanted to tap it with a with a black man that doesn't cheat. I just wanted to I just wanted to see some insight. We can keep it, we can keep it pushing, but just want to. Kingjordnabook: ⁓ what? Greg: I I just wanted I just wanted ⁓ I just wanted insight, that's all. Like I said, this has nothing to do. We're not saying this is anything to do with AJ Brown or the Eagles. I'm not saying none of that. Yeah, I'm just I just wanted to know your thoughts. It's a podcast. That's a great, right? You love the Lord. Exactly. Amen. Praise we praise God. Yeah, man. Absolutely. Jax: Yeah, we're not saying we're not saying this had anything to do with AJ Brown, but we're but we're not saying it didn't have anything to do with Kingjordnabook: Y'all, he threw me for a loop. Okay. I wouldn't have. I'd be working all the time. Amen. Jax: Ver this very very Jalen Hurts like review. Very Jalen Hurts like. Greg: Like to the T actually. Nigga said, now why am I in it? Great answer, Steve. I just want to go back to my I just want to give everything to God. God Kingjordnabook: you Jax: I just want to play football and win. I just want to keep winning a Super Bowl. I'm not concerned about it. Kingjordnabook: You Jax: And go back to go back to my wife who I'm faithful to. I don't wanna be involved in any of this. Greg: God who's also God fearing? ⁓ Kingjordnabook: Hey man. Greg: All right. Now that that genetic is out the way, I has to had to ask. Let's get into some controversy. The Indiana Bears. You heard me right. The Indiana Bears might just be a thing. Chicago is finally. Well, I'm not gonna say finally, because some people they still have hope. Chicago is moving their stadium to Hammond, Indiana. A lot of people are like. Jax: Mm-hmm. Kingjordnabook: can of doing this. Greg: Greg, where the hell is Hammond? Don't know, but it's pretty much on the border between Illinois and Indiana. But this has been a dispute that's been going on back and forth. ⁓ it originally started with Chicago wanting a new stadium, wanted a ⁓ a stadium rebuilt. And if you're from Chicago or have been to a Chicago Bears game, you understand why. I think it is one of the worst constructed ⁓ stadiums in the in the league. It's the smallest stadium in the league. ⁓ it does take forever to get in and out. Traffic is h outrageous. If you think Houston traffic is bad, a Chicago Bears ⁓ stadium, ⁓ after a certain time, it gets really wicked over there. So Everything was a money play. ⁓ they weren't you know, the city of Chicago was not trying to pay for that or, you know, I think there's gonna be some tax ⁓ tax that they would have to pay or whatever. I kinda forgot the ins and out, but basically Jax: That's how all stadiums that's how all like stadiums are. They try to make the taxpayers but that's one thing, like y'all are billionaires. Why are you trying to have like normal people pay with their taxes and everything? Y'all should handle the bulk of everything 'cause you have a billion dollars. Like that's why Greg: Yeah. Yeah, it's fucking fucking stupid. Absolutely. So Hammond swoops in and says, Hey, not only are we gonna give you the shit tax free, but we're going to give you an extra billion dollars just to just on top of it, 'cause we just w hey, we just want we want the stadium here. I think it it'll help the Indiana ⁓ you know, economy, all that jazz. Indiana knows exactly what they're doing. Like Yeah, bring the fucking bears here. Caleb Williams is here. You know what I mean? Niggas on the the matten cover. This is a good time to to to get the bears. And I think what happened was a lot of my thinking and Jack's thinking. So when they came back to Chicago and said, Hey, we got niggas in Indiana that's trying to tryna do this shit and we're trying to price match. And them niggas was like, No, they're not. You're fucking lying. We're not. We're not folding to your bullshit. And the bears are like, all right, fuck it. We're gonna go to Indiana. And that's exactly what the fuck happened. And now everybody's looking at each other like, How the fuck did Chicago move 30 minutes down to another state? Jax: Like it's it's just the fact that it's in another state. It's only like a thirty minute or I looked it up now, it's forty five minutes 'cause I guess there's traffic early in the morning on Saturday. Forty six minutes now. But like it's just the fact it's in another state. Like you could like there's no other closer state. Like that's really the only thing. Greg: They had other they had other ones, I think, ⁓ I forgot the name of it, but it was like Heights. It was a c what's called Brooklyn Heights. It's something it's still in Illinois, but that was a that was an option. But I just think the Bears were just so gung-ho on. Y'all not taking this shit out of Chicago for real. Y'all just gonna Y'all gonna deal with this shit. Jax: Because it's Chicago, this historic franchise. Even though that stadium sucks, it's like one of the I think well, obviously one of the older stadiums, but like a historic stadium as well, even though it sucks. But like just move I don't know. That's so ugly. Like they w they're still gonna be called the Chicago Bears, but just being in Indiana, that just don't f feel right. Greg: I'm calling them niggas the Indiana Bears. What is you talking about? Jax: And then I think like the bears, like their facilities and all that, it's still going to be in Chicago. So like they're still gonna have to make like a crazy commute low key. So that's another thing. I don't know, it's just all this stuff feels stupid to me. They should just figure out some way to stay in Chicago, but billionaires only care about money. So if something is cheap to them, they'll do it do that. Even though you have a big Greg: Yeah, but how would you feel if the Rockets moved to Galveston? Kingjordnabook: Galveston Rockets. Now that'd be crazy though. That's a definitely hour and a half. It take the filling out the city, know, take the pride out what we got going because it's in the middle of the city, then you taking it out. Greg: Mm-hmm. Absolutely. Jax: Right. It's like the Texans moving their stuff to Cyprus, bro. Kingjordnabook: True. True. Greg: But but we not leaving the state, nigga. It's not the Louisiana Texans, nigga. Yeah, you can't leave Texas, nigga. It's different. Or like that's like saying the Oklahoma Cowboys. Jax: Very yeah, you can't you ca Texas too big. You can't really le you can't leave state. Texas's too big. Okay, that's ugly. Well I mean Oklahoma State is a Cowboys, but regardless, Oklahoma Cowboys is very ugly. Greg: That is ug that is ugly. Very true. Yeah, that's that's bad. We'll see we'll see how it goes. I for I forgot when it starts going into effect. 'Cause it's not gonna be this upcoming season. I think it's gonna take maybe a couple of years for the stadium to get built. Kingjordnabook: ⁓ Money. Jax: Just then. Greg: Rome wasn't built in the day. Jax: I don't see anything about the actual day, but they are saying it's basically a done deal, barring anything strains. What did they say in this statement? ⁓ okay, they don't give a date. Greg: And I think a lot of a lot of people are starting to move. Like you know what I mean? Like a lot of franchises are like okay with moving. Like I just saw I think what, a couple of days ago, the Dallas Stars. They're moving they're moving to Plano. Kingjordnabook: Good. Jax: Plano and Dallas damn near the same thing. Greg: I know, but it's just like it's the fact that like niggas don't give a fuck about shit being in the city no more. Like niggas is just Jax: That is a little Dallas Dallas crowded as hell. Well, Chicago's probably crowded as hell. But Dallas is crowded as hell, too. And also, I think everything in that like DFW Metroplex is low-key free game for whatever friend, except for Fort Worth. That's a little bit far. But every like Plano, ⁓ what's what's the other city over there? Like Allen. Yeah, free. Like all that. I think all that's free game for a Dallas franchise, in my opinion, at least. Cause that's still granted. I'm not from there, but it's let's just still Dallas, bro. Stop. Greg: Briscoe. Kingjordnabook: Honestly, y'all, when you become billionaires and see how I feel, and then we can be like, all right, I understand it now. You know, I feel like we talking from. Jax: Yeah. Greg: But I mean I also don't agree that there's a a such thing as a good billionaire. I think you've done bad things to become a billionaire at some point. So we would you can't name a billionaire where I'm like, Ha, you did something. You didn't you you did this the right way. Kingjordnabook: You think so? Jax: Yeah. No matter what, I think like Azabilla, like there's always gonna be some like even if you didn't do it directly, like you're always gonna have like some way you sort of victimize some. Like LeBron, I don't LeBron, I don't I don't know him personally, obviously, but I don't think he's a bad person, nothing. But he got little Asian kids in them Nike factories working, ⁓ making them shoes and stuff. Like that's not his fault, but that's just what happens. Kingjordnabook: Thank you. What about you? Greg: Yeah, you are a byproduct of some bad shit happening. Jax: Yeah, so. But if I did end up becoming a billionaire, may I would y'all buy a sports team? I would. Kingjordnabook: What about Yeah, I would. People are like, that's like they church. They they were just like, they like, ⁓ my goodness. Greg: Absolutely. Jax: Yeah, honestly, yeah. Greg: Honestly, it would just it would be a matter of what team like ⁓ not what not what city, 'cause I feel like I would I would it would be a Houston team. It would just be a matter of like what type of franchise, like would I go football, would I go basketball? I think honestly, I would go get them Houston Commons. That's just me. I think I Jax: You make it you make it right. Fertile T Fertita's not giving up d does Tim and Fertina own them now, right? He's not giving them up. Cause they fin when they when they finally get they finally be good. Greg: Yeah, he's he's not. He he worked he wa yeah, he worked he worked way too hard to to even get the team back. But if I had free reign of just any franchise ever Jax: Yeah. You're not getting that. Greg: If it's not a hometown city, it would probably be like it'd have to be something like the Cowboys, where I know I'm getting money regardless. Like I know I'm not losing money. Even when the team loses, I get money because this franchise is so strong. Or like the Packers. Something historic. ⁓ I'm never. Yeah. Jax: You you never get in the Cowboys either. The Jones when Jerry Jones die, like his family gonna keep that forever. Like they finna they gonna start once Jerry Jones dies, they're gonna start beefing like the family. They're gonna start beefing how the Lakers did. Greg: They probably beefing already. They just can't in front of Jerry. Cause Jerry be like, Hey, stop all that yelling before I cut everybody out the wheel. And then everybody just shuts up. Jax: Yeah, sure. Dallas I think Dallas the most like valuable sports franchise and is like them and ⁓ that that soccer. What's the soccer team? ⁓ Greg: In the world. ⁓ what, Real Madrid? Or Barcelona or Jax: Yeah, I think it's them and Real Madrid or is it I think it might be them and Real Madrid are like the the most valuable them Real Madrid and the Yankees I think are the three most valuable sports franchises. Kingjordnabook: Dallas number. Greg: Yeah, and then after that I think the n the Knicks are up there. Yeah. Jax: Yeah, the Knicks and the Lakers are in there as well. Whenever if somebody were to sell the Cowboys, they can get shoot easily, like 10 million easy, which is the most that's I don't think any Francis sold for 10 million. I mean ten right ten billion rather, but ten they can get ten easily. They might get fifteen. Greg: ⁓ man, they can get crazy. Kingjordnabook: I thought you'd we done. Greg: A I might be able to get the Clippers off a cheap deal. Jax: Shall Greg: Depending on how they depending on how they ⁓ reprimand niggas. I don't know. Kingjordnabook: Hey. Jax: Yeah. Kingjordnabook: Let's put all our money together and let's go for it, y'all. Greg: ⁓ you see you see how put your all all of our money together. Then we have to agree on a team. So we we will have the the cheapest team to own right now. Kingjordnabook: On me, we could be at three, four. Jax: Which I think which I think is the cheapest team to own. Like it's obviously gonna be a bad team. It's gonna be a bad team, obviously. Like the browns are probably cheap. Greg: Okay, I guess what what sports what sports are you what what sport are you trying to commit to? Feel like let's start. Are we committing to football, baseball, basketball? What are we committing to? Kingjordnabook: I like football. Jax: I bet it's some cheap baseball teams 'cause a lot of them be ass. And people low key stop people low key stop watching baseball. Greg: Yeah, but as a o but as a owner, yeah, but as an owner, you gotta keep in mind there's no salary cap. You gotta pay somebody 600 mil as a nigga. So yeah. Jax: Never ⁓ not doing that. Never mind. Never mind. Never mind. Kingjordnabook: It's a year though. Greg: Yeah, but nigga, hold on. I I have one billion. Jax: And I gotta give you six hundred six hundred million of that. Greg: I gotta give you six hundred of this shit. And the down payment to my to my ownership. ⁓ maybe okay, maybe foot maybe football might be the football might be the move. Cause they're the chief. Jax: I don't know Football is like football's expensive though because it's just like the biggest sport in America. That's why I'm like, maybe basketball would probably be easier. But who's a basketball team? Greg: But I'm saying like who I like how do you how do you do w what would make us the most money? Jax: Football making the most money. Kingjordnabook: Yeah, but I say, but I'll go back. Greg: Let's get yeah, let's get let's get our bank for the buckets. Let's try to find an NFL T. Jax: I mean, like I said, it the Browns, but the Browns suck. But if if if you could make the Browns good, you'll be amazing. But that's what everybody has said about the Browns for their entire everything. Who's Greg: I would say honestly, because they because they're still a historic team, it still won't be as cheap as we think it is. When it comes to when it comes to the Browns. Like, yes, they suck, but there's probably a cheaper team out there. The Cardinals was a good pull too. Jax: The cardinals? Who, the Browns? The Cardinals histor they're a historic team as well, which is cra I think the Cardinals are like one of the earliest football teams ever. Greg: Hey, low key, we might be able to get something cheap for the Carolina Panthers. That's a early fran that's a ear that's a franchise that started like in the in the n in the nineties. Jax: Or the Jaguars. The Jaguars probably. The the Titans the Titans suck. The Titans suck. You Greg: Jaguars. Kingjordnabook: Jaguar's like one Bingles is 32 we get the Bingles Bingles is 30 ⁓ Greg: All the time. Jax: You said what? ⁓ no, the owner for the bangles. He's actually like broke. For owner, he's broke. I don't think I don't even think he's a billionaire. I think he has like 900 million dollars, something like that. So we can construct the bangles. Greg: He's cheap. Kingjordnabook: Okay. What? Greg: Okay. So would you rather get the Bengals or would you try to go band for band with Tom Dundan and try to get the Treblis? Kingjordnabook: that. Jax: Think Does Poiling have a crazy name? Greg: I feel like the Bengals give you more I feel like the Bengals make you more money though. Jax: Yeah, but Kingjordnabook: you Jax: Don't Seatt not Seattle, but Portland, don't they have like a crazy like basketball, like aren't they like a basketball city? For real. Greg: I mean, it's near Seattle, so I could see that. ⁓ maybe wanna maybe wanna like invest in one of like the new expansion teams that comes out. Jax: They finna be fans 'cause like Vegas or no, teams already in Vegas. Greg: No, yeah, but it's gonna be Veg Vegas ⁓ men's basketball. I'm talking about the basketball teams that are gonna be expanded next. Yeah. Maybe you wanna would you rather chip into something brand new or something that's established? Jax: Okay, okay. Who's is it gonna be Vegas and Seattle, right? I would do I would I would go to Seattle. I would do Seattle. I don't wanna be in Vegas. I would do Seattle. Greg: I n I already know this nigga first move. I already know this nigga first move. You go you can go get K D. That nigga finna go to Seattle and go get K D. And it don't matter how much money it takes, that nigga gonna spend Kingjordnabook: I be. Jax: What? What's my first move? yeah. Kevin Ryan is going to Whenever that expans when whenever that expansion team comes to Seattle, Kevin Ryan is going to Seattle. He's gonna do one to two years there and then he's gonna retire. Greg: I'm gonna hit I'm gonna hit a jersey retirement. Jax: Yes, bro. That's that's the team he that drafted him. He liked them. He never wanted to leave Seattle. Then they moved to OKC. Greg: Mm-hmm. That's fair. That is that is fair. But ⁓ that was good. That was a that was a good little thought exercise. I'm not gonna lie to you. So final f was final answer Seattle or was final answer ⁓ Bengals? Kingjordnabook: Okay, see. I don't know about that. Jax: Yeah, Seatt I don't know anything about Seattle. I don't know anything about ⁓ Cincinnati rather. So I think I'd rather do Seattle. I've been to Se have I to Seattle? I think I've been to Seattle. Greg: All right, congratulations. We are the new owners of the Seattle Supersonics. Yes, this will be a TikTok. Yes, I will be cutting this up. Now, real quick, real quick before we get into ⁓ into stuff, ⁓ Jordan Adams, a 26 year old MLB guy. I don't know a a lot about this, a lot about this topic. You might have to leave this one. Kingjordnabook: Let's go. Jax: Ha ha. Kingjordnabook: What? Jax: Yeah. Yeah, let me pull it up real fast. so Jordan Adams, former five star wide receiver, he was drafted by the Baltimore Orioles, seventeenth overall in twenty eighteen. He's twenty six years old, but this season he signed with SMU to play football. ⁓ he used to be like a five star recruit. It was he was in the class with ⁓ Jamar Chase and Aman Rah St. Brown, who's actually ranked above Jamar Chase. Like that's how good he was. He's What, number three at his position rankings? So like he was a really good ⁓ high school prospect. But he was like, you know what? They're trying to give me this money in the MLB. I'm gonna go and do that. And he's been spending the last eight years in baseball, but it's hard to break into. He was only really like a minor league guy. And so he decided, you know what, since NIL's coming back, or since NIO is a whole thing now, let me go back to college football in like Normally I'm like sorta upset when like an older player comes back, but this I'm not really I don't know, like this I'm not really mad at for real, because he never played college football. He just tried the baseball thing and it ain't work and I can't really hate on him for that. Like but you was like a high level college athlete. Like how do you feel about stuff like this? Kingjordnabook: I'm gonna get excited get that back Get that back Yeah, I mean nobody guys This is a once a life life ⁓ life and up anyways, I'm 26 if I go I Will go back and run or play a sport, know saying he got a chance to be a baseball player This is really legendary status right now and this is a my Louie track. He went pro then he came back Jax: Yeah. ⁓ Greg: Yeah. Jax: You're too excited. Kingjordnabook: So I think this is what they wanted. They wanted to get a guy's money, so go ahead and get your bag. I say go. Long as he hooping though, dust don't be out there taking people money and you just on the side. Jax: Yeah, you c you can't be you can't be ass. You're twenty six. You got you have to be good. You have to be good. Greg: Yeah. Kingjordnabook: but that's my only discourse. He not good. So what y'all. Greg: Yeah, you have to be solid. Jax: You think he's still good? Yeah, he's going to SMU. See how big? So he's six he was six two, one seventy five in high school. So he's not a small receiver or nothing like Yeah, I hope he's still good, but like this like it. I'm not mad at it. Like I thought I would be, but no, like just see if it works out. And if it maybe I don't they're not gonna want to draft him. Greg: And this is d this is for S ⁓ he said this is a SMU? Okay. Kingjordnabook: Six. Greg: Who's a five star recruit, so Jax: I know, I just I just wanna see if he's good. That's really it. Greg: This is actually like the reverse of what other people do. Like, it's like the ⁓ you know, football, you know, football is cool and it's more popular, but you need to go get that baseball bag or whatever. This is the first time I've seen somebody try to go get that baseball bag and say, you know what? Let me try football instead. Jax: No. He he did get the baseball bag and now he's coming back to get the football bag. He g he getting all the bags. Greg: Yeah, he got the ba he got the baseball bag, but he still didn't go. Yeah, he didn't he is he is he is collecting affinity stones, I will admit. But yeah, he definitely cause how'd he hit had he hit MLB, I don't think we even have this conversation. I think he's just stays. But yeah, I just I wonder what his route tree is gonna be now. Cause I d like, you know, I'm not saying if you if you don't use it, you lose it. I've never been a wide receiver, so like Jax: Yeah. Yeah. Greg: all that technique stuff, like I wonder if that's just like muscle memory to a point where it's like, ⁓ okay, I did it in high school, but at the age of twenty six, Unk still got it. I don't know. Like I I Jax: I'm I'm looking at his Wikipedia right now. His dad is great. His dad was a football or his dad's a D line coach, but his dad's still a football coach. So he's been around football and the football coach at ⁓ University of Mississippi. Is that O Miss? Yeah, I think that's O Miss. But yeah, so like he's been around football his whole life, it feels like. Greg: ⁓ okay. Kingjordnabook: Please. Jax: Let me see. And he how much he made? When he got when he signed to the Angels or whatever, he made they signed him for three point five million. So he made him a nice little bag, so. Greg: No girl. That's not bad. That's that's not that's not bad at all. The Angels always be drafting a nigga young. I'm not gonna lie. Kingjordnabook: Mm. My only grape is. He married with a baby. Greg: It's always always the Angels and the Athletics that will sign a nigga young. Jax: those franchises I I don't even watch baseball, I know they sting. That's how that's how bad they are. Greg: Yeah, that's true. Niggas forget ⁓ Shohill Tani was an angel. Kingjordnabook: What? Greg: How soon they forget. Jax: Let me see. I'm trying to see if I can see his career earnings real fast before we move on. Okay, so through his career he's made four and a half ⁓ million. It's not too shabby, not too shabby. But yeah, no, I do I do hope it works. I'm very interested to see how good he is. So Greg: ⁓ for Jordan Adams? Yeah, I'm I'm actually tapped in. I actually wanna see, you know, what it looks like. No SMU is SMU is what? 'Cause they're in the A A C C now, right? Yeah. So you're gonna be playing some good comp. You're gonna be playing the Clemsons, the UNCs and shit. Like, you know. Wishful thinking, wishful thinking, you know. But yeah, man. Jax: And SMU wasn't even bad for real. They haven't been like super bad. Yeah. On a VNC. Yeah. Greg: At the time of this recording, we have officially gotten ⁓ what do you call it? Two games into the NBA finals and the Knicks are up two ⁓ ⁓ Jax: Matter of fact, I was gonna pull up game two, but we can talk about game one a little bit first. Just just just a tad bit. Greg: Yeah. ⁓ with game one, the the sp what you call it. The Knicks came out, did their thing. I knew that game one was gonna be a pivotal game. I knew it was a high chance that the Knicks would win just due to them having more rest, even though rest can equal Rust sometimes. I just had a feeling that hey, if the Knicks win game one, there's not gonna be no Spurs and five shit. Those Spurs and six shit. Like that game one is very pivotal. ⁓ and they clawed their way back in, won that game. Cause they were down. I think in the third quarter. They were like down ten points, twelve points. Brunson, I I think ⁓ on TikTok is a trend because, you know, they have like the everybody's better than Brunson until it's time to be ⁓ Jalen Brunson. But now it's a ⁓ don't be Jax: Yeah. Greg: Don't don't run into, you know, B for B Brunson. And I was like, what the fuck is B for B? He was like, ban for ban Brunson. That is a thing. Cause in the fourth quarter, this nigga will go band for band with your with your favorite player. And I was just like, You do have a fucking point. And there's a whole bunch of niggas that's just like reenacting a band for band Brunson. And it's just like, ⁓ I ain't got money in my pocket right now. It's like the first quarter. It's like, ⁓ I'm broke. Fourth quarter. Jax: Yeah. Greg: Now them niggas got money guns in their hands showing that they Jalen Brunson. It's a it's a whole thing. But they i it it is true. So before we go into game two, any thoughts on game one from the both of y'all? Kingjordnabook: game. Jax: I was just surprised on how bad like Wimby he had twenty six, but nigga shot six for twenty-one. And that's Wimby too I feel I've said that a lot. Wimby's too tall to be doing this bullshit, bro. Just go inside, bro. I get I get you skinny still, but like my nigga, you are seven foot six, bro. You're taller than everybody. You can't you can't just be settling for jump shots this entire time. And you can't be getting out rebounded. Like Josh Hart is an insane is an insane human being, but he's still six three. He shouldn't be out rebounding you in. He had fifteen rebounds. You only had twelve. So it was just like Kingjordnabook: Damn. I would say... ⁓ Greg: This this is very true. Same height as Andrew Reese, by the way. Yeah, she's six three two. Kingjordnabook: ⁓ piggybacking off of Drake, they have a lot of risks. And Kevin Garnett said whenever Wimby was crying when they won the conference final, I was like, Jax: I think yeah. Kingjordnabook: I think it's kind of over, bro. I think they put all the energy in the wits. And now it's just like, I think it's kind of over, bro. I think they put all the energy in the wits. And now it's just like, we made it to the finals, but you got to play the finals game. So I think it's ⁓ over, y'all. ⁓ over, y'all. Greg: Hey, this nigga hey, this nigga reacts just like my mama reacts. I feel like my mom said the same thing. feel like my mom said the same thing. I I you're done. I'll say, mom, it's only ⁓ one game. it's over. Whoa. Damn nigga. Mind you, ⁓ mind you, she's a diehard, ⁓ she's a diehard Spurs fan. like, yeah, I think it's over. I'll say, whoa. Can relax? I I didn't say But ⁓ now ⁓ Jax: Yeah. Kingjordnabook: We made it! Yeah. Greg: The most anticipated game too. Because I kinda had a feeling that the Spurs would bounce back. You do have Greg Popovich, you do have film. ⁓ they know how to regroup, attack, and you know, get out and put out a better performance. And it kind of helped. You kind of saw improvement, you kind of saw inj adjustments, but overall, the New York Knicks hang on and win. Jax: Yeah. Greg: In San Antonio, again, Wimby had 29 points, but it didn't feel like it. ⁓ Mitchell Robinson held his own defensively. They tried to do the hack of Mitch, and that worked for a little bit, but ⁓ you're slowing the game down, my nigga. You still gotta you still gotta play basketball. Carr Edney Towns still it still didn't seem like they had a ⁓ Good game plan for cat for Kat. They can't guard Cat. And even in game one, he didn't even attempt a three. It is just the fact that he he's a threat to shoot. That, you know, is is different. De'Aaron Fox had a better showing, though. Because there was a lot of people that wanted Dylan Harper to start ⁓ having starter minutes after ⁓ game one. But in game two, Dylan Fox, Fox was heating up. Jax: They they can't guard like they can't guard at all. Fox. Greg: That was a bad turnover at the end. Crucial turnover. that's something that's gonna get replayed a lot. Jax: Unfortunately for the rest of his career 'cause that's just how that's how everything if that's how everything works nowadays. Like you make one mistake as a twenty two year old, first time going to the finals and niggas gonna be like, ⁓ my gosh, you're the worst player. That's just how that's how life works now. Greg: Yeah. It's just gonna happen. When when when we start having legacy talks, they're gonna bring that up. They will. Jax: In his third year he didn't win the championship 'cause he turned the ball light. That's what niggas are gonna say. And they're not gonna realize how ridiculous that sounds. But Greg: And they won't care that it sounds ridiculous. ⁓ 'cause it's a make or miss league. But yeah, I mean ⁓ Book, did you have a problem with Wimby taking the last shot? Did you like that play that was drawn up at the end? Jax: Yeah. Kingjordnabook: I did not watch the last shot, I will say I have no problems because he been hooking. What's that? Greg: Mm. Jax: Yeah, you you can I I was gonna say you can't get mad at your best player taking the last shot, but like his last shot, it was a jump shot. And it's just like like I said, bro, like you're tall, my nigga. Go inside. You was down one, bro. You didn't have to do that. So I don't I don't. Greg: That's something you live with. Yeah, like when when like when you when you are if you're the Knicks, you live with a jumper like that. Cause if he makes it, he makes it. But y you're not giving him a high percentage shot. Because that's not his bread and butter. That's not fucking Chris Paul in the mid-range. It's not DeMar DeRozan in the mid-range. We'll we'll live with that. Nobody can really guard that shot, but Mitch did the best that he could and affected it enough to miss. ⁓ I s I could understand. Jax: Yeah. Greg: Somebody saying De'Aaron Fox needs to take that shot. He's been hot all game. Just the way they're regarding it, I wasn't fucking with the shot that was gonna happen coming out of De'Aaron Fox. But I would have liked for De'Aaron Fox to shoot it ⁓ early in the shot clock and have Wimby a little bit down low in the paint. Because n although he do be getting boxed out, like you're tall than everybody else. There's a chance that you can tip that in. You might catch that. Yeah, you might. Jax: He might have to rebound to be back in. Greg: be able to or it might turn into a fucking lob because you're tall. I just I just think living living with that like he's Steph Curry or something, I I just don't think that was the right way to go. But when you are the best player on the team, you just gotta you gotta live with that shot. So now they're gonna go into game three down ⁓ two in an environment that nobody in over two decades have seen and that is a New York crowd in the finals. Jax: to They're going to go in like I would I'm not a Knicks fan. I do not I think I've probably said horrible nothing pro I've said terrible things about the Knicks. Greg: Insane, bro. You've said terrible things. We've all said terrible things. Jax: probably didn't even think they'd get to ⁓ I definitely didn't think they get to championship. I've said horrible things about their playoff run this entire time. But like regardless, like that's going to be an insane sta ⁓ insane environment in game. Like I would like I I would love to be there for like the energy and all that. But tickets like ten thousand dollars for the Nose Bee. So that's not happening. But Kingjordnabook: Sneak in, sneak in bro. Jax: Ha ha. Greg: You think they're gonna sneak in when the president is there? Hey, this might be Mitchell Ro this might be Mitchell Robinson's best game. Game three, that nigga might have a triple double. And you're un and some people are like, why are you talking about this? Why, why, why, why, why would Mitchell Robinson with a broken hand have such an amazing game? Yeah, because Donald Trump's gonna be in the building. And if you don't know about his political views, I won't say it out loud, but just put two and two together. Kingjordnabook: Thank you. Jax: ⁓ yeah. You know, have a triple double. Mr. Robinson, I I don't I don't understand how Mitchell Robinson is a seven foot like two hundred and fifty pound black man from whoever who drives pickup trucks and this and listen to country music and he's in love with Donald Trump. I'm like, how do you even how did this happen? Greg: I don't know, ask Herschel Walker. Jax: I don't know. Herschel Walker, Herschel Walker has C T E. Mr. Robinson didn't play football. He's too tall. Greg: Think you think Mitchell Robinson is is incapable of having CT? Nigga that broke his hand, by the way. Broke his pinky. Jax: He from Florida. ⁓ That explains it a little bit. Greg: I mean we talk yeah, we talk we talk bad about Florida all the time. Jax: Yeah. That that now that might explain it a little. Greg: He said nigga says shit starting to add up. He said shit starting to make sense. Nah man. ⁓ Jax: ⁓ Unfortunately, unfortunately. Greg: Is anybody revising how they feel about ⁓ the series count? Jax: ⁓ yeah, I won a hundred. I was I said that I think what did I say last I did that say Spurs and six? Spurs and five. Yeah, no. I'm going Nixon four, man. I don't even care. I do it. I don't even care. Give me the sweep. I don't care. Nixon four. Greg: He said Spurs are fire. Kingjordnabook: mission forward. Greg: Hey, from from a job perspective, I'm praying this a sweep, nigga. Whatever's gonna get us whatever's gonna get her done as early as possible, I'm here for it. Realistically, ⁓ I feel like the Spurs could win a game four. I just don't think I don't think game three is in their favor at all. ⁓ I think the worst thing that could happen for the Knicks is if they feed into the crowd too much and ⁓ Jax: Yeah. Greg: It starts, you know, they start doing some shit that just is uncharacteristic because nobody, even the Knicks, haven't gone through this type of environment. I don't know how it's gonna affect them either. A lot of pressure to just do well in your home crowd because it's expect it's expected of you to go crazy. That could backfire. I don't I doubt it will. But that's like the only like silver line that I could see. I think the Knicks win game three. And once you're up three ⁓ You're not you're not winning. ⁓ they'll win game four and then maybe they go into game five and they beat the Spurs in San Antonio. But I would love for the New York Knicks to win in MSG. I Jax: Yeah, that's why I'm like, it's either it's either gonna be Nixon four or Nixon six. I really think they want to win in Madison Square Garden. And like if they win in New York, they're going to tear that. That same's gonna get torn down. That same is going to get torn down. Kingjordnabook: hurt. Greg: man. Kingjordnabook: Alright. Hey, I might fly you out to New York just for vibes. Greg: Dirk They're the bro, they need they Jax: They're gonna have to shut down the airports 'cause that's gonna be going on. I think FIFA's going on right now with the World Cup. ⁓ so that people Greg: Yeah, the World Cup. The World Cup's about to happen very soon. They need to speed this up. Jax: It's going it's going to be crazy in New York City. Greg: Juneteenth is a federal holiday now. So you got that going on. People out here celebrating for that. They have the Puerto Rican festival the same month. A lot of things going on, man. A New York like I'm say Jax: New York is finna go crazy. New York has the they have the they have the opportunity to do one of the craziest one of the craziest things ever, bro. Kingjordnabook: EEEE Greg: They're gonna make Philadelphia Eagles fans look like Saints the way they tear this city down. Let you know. You thought Jax: They're gonna need to call they're gonna need to call the Avengers, the Justice League, the Avatar. Greg: National Guard, it don't. They might need to call Iceman. Shit. Jax: They don't need everybody. Yeah. Greg: And Esau's Walker. Yeah. Kingjordnabook: That's all. Greg: Yeah man. Yeah. I I originally had Nixon six. I'm willing to I'm willing to bump it down to Nixon five. I'm I'm willing to bump it down. Jax: You gotta What about you, Boot? Kingjordnabook: Nixon Faux, bruh. Jax: Yeah exactly. We need we need we need this we this we'll be the sweet be the funniest possible outcome, I'm not gonna lie to you. And that's why I need Greg: ⁓ does this does a Knicks sweep change the perception of the Eastern Conference to any of y'all? Of it being the weak ass East. Damn. Damn, it don't it don't mat it don't matter. Jax: No, it's still weak as hell. It's still it's still weak as hell. Like they was going against they were going against a CJ McCollum, Learhawks, ⁓ Greg: The only niggas that could beat them, by the way. Mind you. Jax: See him call them, but they small guards give them trouble for whatever reason. Then who else they play? ⁓ Greg: They played the Cavs. They played Philly. Jax: They played the Cavs. The Cavs are actually the we knew Philly wasn't gonna Philly just wanted to beat Boston. Joel ⁓ B just wanted to beat Boston one time in the playoffs. He did that and he could pass away peacefully. ⁓ Greg: So you feel like the Knicks couldn't go through the Western Conference Gauntlet? For real? I see it. That's why I disagree. I feel like I feel like they can beat I feel like they could be J the Timberwolves and I think they could be ⁓ Jax: No. ⁓ The Spurs barely beat the Timberwolves and the Timberwolves and Anthony Edwards had no healthy knees. Greg: Yeah, and they're down two ⁓ right now against the Knicks. And they Jax: No, I'm just saying like are you are you talking about like if it was like in this hypothetical I'm assuming like everybody's healthy and of like maximum health and strength and all Greg: Well I mean but that's not reality. I mean, if we're gonna call the w the East weak, then it's just like okay, like as big as much as the West was strong as fuck, or like talented, the niggas went through injuries, the Lakers wasn't even healthy for real. Jax: Yeah, but if you're saying so if if the Timberwolves aren't healthy and if like you the Lakers, if it's if it's going with the West how it is now and like the current how everything was, then yes, Knicks could possibly make the finals. But if it was everybody like in the perfect world, everybody healthy and all that, then like, no, I don't think they could 'cause you too good. Greg: At at the healthiest, ⁓ everybody at full health, them niggas is not getting swept. Them niggas them niggas not getting swept by any of them teams. Okay season okay sweet but that's how that's how we view the the Easter is like, okay, like these niggas gonna lose, bro. Like these niggas is not that good. But it's just like time and time again, the nigga that you don't expect to win get close to scaring a nigga. Like last year, it was fucking the Pacers. Jax: I said they can sweat. They're just gonna lose. Halburn was on some others. Halburn was on some others. Greg: And most people would have said the Pacers was boo boo trash. That I was saying, how many times do we have to say, hey, this random ass Eastern team is just on some other shit before we just start saying, ⁓ maybe the East isn't as I just think the Western Conference is top heavy. But one through eight is not as scary as niggas want to make it seem. Phoenix is not that goddamn scary. The Trailblazers is not that goddamn scary. All right. Jax: Who's scary in the east? The knights weren't even scary until they got scary. Greg: It's like because we don't put the respect on them, because we just think they're trash until they just keep proving you that ⁓ maybe they're not that trash, and you only find that out in the NBA finals. Jax: Okay, cool, but now who else in the East is scary? Nobody. Nobody's Greg: Yeah, because that's how you that's how you feel. That I'm saying, but that's just how you feel based off of the narrative of the East. It wouldn't you wouldn't be able to say, ⁓ like, Detroit's the real deal. Like, you wouldn't be able to say that unless the Detroit Pistons were doing the same, like, regular season shit against Western Conference teams. But nothing like you can never give like you'll never be able to give Eastern Conference teams real credit about something until they get to the finals to see how really good they are because you assume everybody in the East is trash. So like there's there's nothing there's nothing that the Eastern Conference can do on their own that could make you believe, ⁓ actually the East is not as bad as niggas want to make it out to be. Jax: I feel like They can have more competitive teams. They can have more team. They can have more teams that are like not just one star and that's it. Cause like the Pistons were just Cade and that's it. Like we thought the Cavs would have more than one star, but then unfortunately James Harden did his James Harden thing. So that sucks. We thought, well, niggas sort of thought the magic magic was supposed to be good, but then we saw them struggle with the hornets and we're like, okay, never mind. They're not really like that. Greg: They do have competitive teams. Kingjordnabook: I should have won that bro Greg: Yeah. Jax: Who else was in the playoffs for the East? The Hawks, we just we just knew that we knew what the Hawks, the Hawks has got, you know. The Hawks started off the season horribly. Nobody really expected anything from the Hawks. The Celtics, nobody expected anything from the Celtics because they was never full strength. Because Jason Tatum wasn't all the way there. And when he came back, he was still like not all the way there. He's coming out from Achilles. And then we knew. Greg: But nobody expected but nobody expected them to lose to the fucking Sixers though. That's not that wasn't on nobody's bingo card to be like, ⁓ like you're gonna lose to the bing lee, you're gonna lose to the Sixers. Jax: That's valid, but we also didn't expect Joel L and B to play any of those games for real. But he like I said, he wanted he wanted to get that Sixers monkey off his back so he could finally be like, Fuck y'all Boston and he did just that and then his knees disintegrate in the dust. So Greg: I mean I guess, but it's just kind of like I don't know. I just I just think that there are there are quite there are are quite a few Western conference teams that if they went to the East, they wouldn't have made the final. Kingjordnabook: they wouldn't. I think they should break it up. Like every year. Jax: I mean only my team makes the final, so Greg: They win ⁓ The Tim the Timberwolves the Timberwolves wasn't gonna make it. The Rockets wasn't gonna make it. The Lakers wasn't gonna make it. Jax: We knew the Rockets aren't good. We knew Rockets and Lakers, we knew those teams aren't good. Like we wanted them to be good. We knew those teams were not good for Greg: Exactly, but like those are the teams that get talked about in this ⁓ my God, this Western G conference gauntlet. Jax: Nobody real I don't think anybody actually believed that the Lakers or the Rockets were like a real championship threat. Kingjordnabook: Y'all cap it. Greg: Exactly. At the end of at the end of the day, there was only two there was only two teams in the Western Conference that niggas legitimately was like, yo, this is a championship contending team. It was only two. It was only OKC and the Spurs that people were like, okay, like these are the real ones. Jax: Except for both. ⁓ Kingjordnabook: The Rockets. The Rockets. Jax: I'm trying to say people the teams I f in my opinion, the teams that people actually consider like real championship contenders in the West were OKC Spurs, the Nuggets as well, and even the Timberwolves. I think you put any of those teams in the Eastern Conference, they can get to the finals. Like all the other teams in the West was not we're not serious organizations. Kingjordnabook: turn it was. Jax: But I think you put any of those four teams I said in the Eastern Conference, I think they'd be the best team in the East. Kingjordnabook: That's respectable. That's respectable. Greg: Yeah. I can say I can I can I can see that. I can see what you're what you're saying, but ultimately if you wasn't the Spurs or the O K C Thunder, it was just Spurs and O K C and then I just felt like there was a drop. There was a drop of like, okay, th the y you ever but you're in another tier. ⁓ when it comes to the Western Conference teams. Like, yeah, like Anthony Edwards, we gave him respect because he know how to you know, beat teams in the first and second rounds, but he hasn't been able to beat OK C for real, so I couldn't I didn't I didn't really have him making the finals. But ⁓ all in all, I just made it I made it like that to say like, damn, like, was the East really that bad or were the Knicks really just that good? ⁓ Jax: I think the Knicks just got the Knicks just got hot and they got and they got nobody that can guard Kat 'cause Kat has been abusing Wimby. Kingjordnabook: These high. Greg: Yeah, that is fair. But enough of that playoff talk, we'll we'll continue these talks. Hopefully by the next part, the series will be over. But we'll see. We'll see. But I think it is about that time we finally got here. The long-awaited hot takes of the week. Jax: Yeah. Greg: Now we like to give ⁓ our guest the first one. So Buck, what is your hot take of the week? Kingjordnabook: take a leak. ⁓ Greg: I actually should have reminded this nigga to do this. Actually. Jax: Yeah, no we just if you don't go we can come back to you and then we can just edit it. Okay, baby. Kingjordnabook: Y'all ready? I'm ready. ⁓ It might become virtual, but I feel like it's common knowledge. Y'all ready, y'all? Greg: ⁓ Jax: That's why it's a hot tape, but. Greg: ⁓ I know. know. Kingjordnabook: Stop impersonating these women if you're not gonna be with them ⁓ after the baby is born. Stop impersonating these women if you're not gonna be with them ⁓ after the baby is born. Like really stay with the children and take care of the woman and wife. You got these wives, you got these baby moms posting pictures with their son or daughter lonely in ⁓ last nowhere. Greg: Whoa. Whoa. Jax: Ha ha Ha ha ha. Kingjordnabook: you got these baby moms posting pictures with their son or daughter lonely in ⁓ last nowhere. Jax: Ha ha Ha ha Kingjordnabook: This is, at first it was a trend, now it's just coming in an era. It's coming to epidemic. So I think everyone who impregnate these women, y'all might need to a contract to stay with them forever. Cause what's going on? Hot tape, appreciate at it was a trend, now it's just coming in an era. It's coming to epidemic. Jax: Hey man, he's not wrong. Kingjordnabook: y'all need to a contract to stay with them forever. Cause what's going on? ⁓ tape, Greg: Marriage nigga? Marriage nigga? Kingjordnabook: that. Marriage, ⁓ my point. Marry these women before y'all impregnate them, please. All right. Jax: I'm not mad at that at all. Greg: Yeah. Jax: He's Book is not wrong at fucking all, bro. That's a great hot take. It should that shouldn't that shouldn't even be a hot take. That should be the normal thing. Book is not wrong. Greg: And no, I'm laughing because he said he said Yeah. No, I'm laughing 'cause you was like, ⁓ this might be controversial. Kingjordnabook: Look, I think people act like this is worst thing ever. Greg: Nigga said dad's nigga said dad's is not daddy no more, nigga. Jax: Bro, they are not, bro. I one hundred pr it's something like Respectfully, I thought we didn't like I thought nobody wanted to be a baby mom and a baby dad. I thought that was sort of like looked down on for real. But now it feels like everybody is one. And like shit happens, I get it, but like I feel like it it it did it did for real low high key got normalized and sort of glorified. It's little odd, but I mean Kingjordnabook: Love you. Greg: Now we glorified it. Kingjordnabook: I'm a single woman. Greg: Digas Jax: And then like you gonna do it like and then not staying is cra like like the people break up and all that, but it's just like I don't know bro. Greg: Like I said, it started as a trend and now it's starting to become an era. That's a bar. That's a bar. And y'all in Houston, so y'all see a lot more. It's at a all time it's at an all time high in that in that city. Jax: It it he's not he is correct, bro. He is one thousand percent correct. Kingjordnabook: I take... all the time. Jax: It I don't even it's not even that a you it's a nation thing. It's a this is a new pandemic. Kingjordnabook: Yeah. Greg: Niggas don't even say niggas don't even say b niggas don't even say the whole name no more. They don't even say baby dad. They just say B D. It's like, ⁓ it's my it's my it's my BM calling. What? Jax: They said B ⁓ and B. I'm like, bro, we don't even say that no more. Kingjordnabook: E. Nobody means. ⁓ not my wife, not my lover, BM. Jax: N not my girlfriend, like none of it just might be being like, bro, come on man. Greg: My B my B D? Nigga, that sounds like a gang. Jax: There is a game. Greg: Yeah. You scared of you scared of commitment, but you're not scared of this gang. You commit to the gang, but not your not your woman? Not the mother of your children. Mind you, it's plural too. It don't be it don't ever be just one kid. Kingjordnabook: then Jax: That'd be the craziest multiple nigga. Kingjordnabook: Both. Both. Greg: Damn. Kingjordnabook: You didn't have to look at the light because why did you allow this? I digress. I digress. I digress. Greg: I'm not gonna lie. I do be looking, like I'd be looking at the I'd be looking at the baby dad crazy off rip for sure. But I do be looking at baby mama number three just as bad. Cause you saw them other two. Why did you think your life was gonna be different? And he not Stephon Diggs either from a a rich standpoint. Like, this nigga's not even financially down. Like you just, it's just there. Jax: Yeah, no. Even if he is, bro, it'd be like it'd be nigga like Tyree Hill, he got like 10 kids by like he had like 13 kids by like 10 women. Like that's insane, my nigga. Like, what are we doing? Greg: Like you not you're not gonna be hooping forever, guy. Like you're not finna like you're not finna be hooping for the rest of your life. Jax: Why you rich now? But you're not finna be rich for and then like tyr respectfully to Tyree Hill, you're not getting no endorsement deals. Niggas know you have a you have a a very you got a rap seat, you're not getting endorsement deals like that. Like exactly. It's just crazy. Greg: You have you have a rap sheet. And they're not putting you on TV like that. Kingjordnabook: Hey, that's why he started BJing. He trying to get his revenue up. So y'all watch out, man. Greg: ⁓ wow. Nigga said nigga trying to get that streaming. Trying to get the streaming together. Yeah, man. That's a great hot take. That's a great hot take. I think I think that's like a it's not even a hot take. That's a public service announcement. You know what I mean? That's I respect that. Kingjordnabook: Bye. Jax: That's the best hot take, but that's the hot take of the year. Kingjordnabook: BSA for real. Greg: ⁓ I'll go ahead and ⁓ I'll get my hot take out the way as well. ⁓ before I say my hot take, ⁓ RIP to ⁓ Cyrus, the 14 year old boy that got murdered ⁓ by that Asian guy, ⁓ injustice was served at the highest degree. But my hot take is around ⁓ jury duty. And I think we do need to stop villainizing jury duty when we get all to do it. I'm not talking to the people that can't afford to to take off work and ⁓ my God, they're not gonna pay. If it don't apply later fly, my nigga. But if you are able to go to jury duty, please stop trying to find ways, especially as a black person. Stop trying to find inhumane ways to get out of jury duty. ⁓ this is people do not understand how important it is. Everybody wants to talk shit about A black defense d attorney and all this other stuff that has nothing to do with the jury. Bro, we need a lot more representation when it comes to shit like this. More shit like this is gonna keep happening. ⁓ when we don't have accurate representation or when we don't see bullshit going on, or even when you're all part of jury duty and you get to the point where it's just like, yo, I I'm just ready to go home. Like I'm just gonna I'm just gonna do a majority rules verdict 'cause I I'm just I'm tired. Nah, bro, like Jax: Yeah. Greg: Find a way to find a way to do it. Try try your best not to just avoid jury duty all the time, bro. ⁓ that's my hot take because I know that's like a that's been like a villain a villainous act of like, ⁓ my god, I gotta go to jury duty and people moping and complaining. Yes, it's a process, but ⁓ it's an important process. Jax: And when you get them all white juries they're gonna end up convicting a innocent black kid, 'cause that's exactly what Greg: Yeah, especially when especially when you're in the South too. Like you're not in New York. You're not in ⁓ Oregon or whatever the fuck. Like you are in Texas, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana. It's like, bro, like you already know. So and that like I said, that's why I don't go too crazy or too hard into defense attorneys, because everybody talks shit about a d defense attorney until you need one. All of a sudden, they the They they're the best person in the world. You talking shit. Why why would he take that case? Why are you avoiding jury duty? You know what I mean? But like I said, if it don't apply, let it fly. I understand that some of y'all cannot afford to be missing days of work where I know they can't fire you, but they some some companies won't pay you for the work that you didn't do. I get it. I understand. But if you are able bodied and you get called up, please don't avoid it. Kingjordnabook: Mmm. Jax: Mm-hmm. Yeah. Greg: ⁓ now more than ever. That's my hot take. Kingjordnabook: I it. I like it. I like it. I don't think Jir-Jir even had that. Jax: Yeah. Greg: So I mean, Jax: I never been playing. I think I I would go to jury duty just to see what it was like. I didn't know. When I was in high school, I got a ticket and they had to I had to do ⁓ jury duty at teen court one time. And that was that was funny. That was also when I learned that I didn't like I had friends that were like robber. This is not the tangent or but I had friends that like rob people and stuff, but I did not know like the method at the time was ⁓ Greg: ⁓ wow. Jax: Robin Pizza Delivery driver. I didn't know that was a method at the time. It feels like a whole bunch of people was in the L for it. And it was very Yeah, but I didn't I didn't realize that was a method, but that's the method. ⁓ it might it probably change since then, but yeah. Greg: ⁓ wow. For Robin Pizza niggas. Yeah. Kingjordnabook: way enough. Greg: Niggas niggas wondering why Pizza Hut always hiring. Niggas tired of getting robbed. Jax: for me but ⁓ but my hot take anyways my hot take game one of the finals some i do not know how old the person was who the person was etc some idiot ran on the court in the middle of the game he took ⁓ he took a video of it too this the one yeah Greg: That's crazy. Yeah. ⁓ I do remember those. Kingjordnabook: Thank you. ⁓ so he took a video? Jax: Yeah. Kingjordnabook: We didn't even get his face! Greg: ⁓ no, he didn't even get the face? Jax: Yeah. My hot take, if you do that, you you deserve to you need to be handled with extreme prejudice by them people. Them people like when they did this grabbed him, escorted him out, they should have grabbed that nigga, slammed him on the on the floor, handcuffed that nigga, dragged him out. Just set an example, set a precedent. So niggas know, do not run on this court during this finals game. Do not do. Greg: And get a and and on top of that, get his phone and delete that video. Jax: Yes, bro. I feel like break the ph get the phone, throw that on the ground, bro. Kingjordnabook: you Greg: Nah, nah you can't break it because ⁓ iCloud, they can still say that video can still be saved. Jax: Delete the video and delete the video, break the phone, break a couple teeth. I don't care. I think people who run on the court like that is so stupid to me. I hate when people do that. I tr I wish like they should have tackled that nigga slander on every if you if you streak on I guess he's not technically a streaker because he had clothes on. I don't know what you would call it. Is streaking the correct phrase for that? If you I don't I don't know, but like if you go on the court or during any Kingjordnabook: Hey, you think it's stupid? Greg: Run it? Kingjordnabook: Basically, we are making. Greg: You're only you're only a streaker if you had if you're a Nuggett or Lucene. Jax: Okay. So if you run on the court or run in the field or whatever during any type of trip, yeah, ⁓ you need to be my ha you gotta be handled with extreme prejudice. I mean, then people need to slam you, they need to hurt you, they need to on live television, set a precedent. So niggas know let's not do that no more. Cause I think it's so stupid. I think it's dumb, bro. And they didn't and he got he got banned or whatever from every NBA stadium. So I guess that's cool, but also like Greg: You're just a fan ranting on a court. Yeah. Kingjordnabook: Damn it! Greg: I think it is Kingjordnabook: What's the bug? Jax: How are they gonna know in like ten years if I want to go to a a Charlotte Hornets game? Like I thought he can. You think they doing that for real for real? I mean, well, I know they are doing that. Yeah, the Knicks are, which is another story for another day. But Yes, the Knicks are the Knicks are Greg: Facial facial recognition. Nigga, the next are. Yeah, it's facial recognition. Absolutely. There's n there's niggas that's been there's niggas that that's been kicked out of the Toyota Center ⁓ because they tweeted some shit. Like, ⁓ like don't let don't don't let me run up on the stage. Don't let me run up on this ⁓ arena if ⁓ Sengun don't get playing time. And he was just joking. They grabbed that nigga up before tip-off and gave that nigga a one year ban. Kingjordnabook: What? next Okay. Greg: And that nigga tweeted, yo, they just banned me. And he showed the pit like just showed the paper. It was like, yo, I just how did they find my tw like how did they do the whole like so yes, all these arenas. The Knicks probably got caught doing it the worst way. But all of these arenas have some sort of facial recognition or whatever. And it doesn't matter what kind of ticket you have, because like once they take your picture or whatever, ⁓ I think once you Kingjordnabook: What? Jax: But it Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Greg: go through like a threshold and a facial recognition, like does something, they're gonna make you ask for they're gonna make you show I D. Like, hey, let me see your ID. One of our little things just kinda went off. ⁓ but it's such a seamless thing. ⁓ but that's the power of AI, you know? A I could Jax: Okay. So maybe the band will so maybe the band will work, but still he should have they should have hurt that man on live television. I don't care. Kingjordnabook: area. Greg: Yeah, he's so young that maybe the facial hair ten years later that might fuck him up. He looks young. Jax: Yeah, I wonder how old I I think he was like he didn't look old. I don't think he was a teenager. But he looked like he probably like twenty or something like that, but still. Greg: ⁓ no, he's definitely not a teenager. I would say like he's probably like nineteen. Kingjordnabook: He go viral because he ain't never seen an NBA game again in person. Greg: But like my th my thing is I think it's incredibly stupid if you don't even get a good video out the shit. You know what I mean? Yeah Rimbi Wimby's so goddamn tall, he didn't he didn't think he didn't think straight enough to just like tilt it up some more. Cause if that was LeBron, if that was LeBron, he would have got a clear cut view of LeBron. K even K D. Jax: Exactly. ⁓ he's face wasn't even in it, bro. Yeah. He got like Wimby's chin is in there. Greg: But Wimby's so goddamn tall, it just it didn't work. And he was he was running on adrenaline too. I think had he got a clear photo of Wimby 'cause Wimby was smiling when it happened. He s had a smirk because he like, Bro, what the fuck is this? So Jax: And it was i he did that in the middle of a play. Like they was like it was like a timeout. He was in the middle of Greg: Yeah, in the middle of the play and they had to figure out how they were supposed to give that ball 'cause I think the Knicks stole the ball during that possession, but I think they had to jump ball it or something. It was crucial. But yeah. Jax: Like I could imagine being like a minute left in the game of fan run, they would probably kill that man. Kingjordnabook: Hahaha Greg: ⁓ my god. Yeah, that yo, doing d hey, doing it in a game too during them like last few seconds of a game, I would've killed. Jax: They would have killed. That's what I like in football when like the players trying to tackle them. I like that. Cause that's funny to me. Cause they deserve it. So I wish I would like Wendy should have clothes lined that nigga. Like that would have been funny. But neither here nor there. Greg: Yeah. Yeah, but if he hurts himself trying to do it, then they'll like, Why the fuck did you even get involved? Jax: Fair. That's fair. Greg: Like it has to it has to be like an Isaiah Stewart or like a ⁓ Ron Artess. Jax: They could have told Kevin Johnson go knock the go knock tell Luke Cornette put hard fouls. Greg: Hard foul by Luke Cornette. That's crazy. That is crazy, but I I I you know I kind of agree. I kind of agree. I do think if you get a good video out of it, I do think it is worth an all-time ban. Like like, ⁓ I hope it was worth it. Yeah, I think it is worth it. Cause I don't think this man is actively going to San Antonio Spurs basketball games like that, to be honest with you. Yeah, also true. So but that about Jax: I mean he never will. He never will again, so Kingjordnabook: Yeah. Greg: Wraps it up, man. DJ Buck, I appreciate you once again for joining the pod, man. ⁓ go ahead and just you know, let us know where they can find you. Platforms. Kingjordnabook: Okay. Whole time, whole time. Appreciate Play For Keeps, Greg and Jack, you know what I'm saying? Appreciate the opportunity, it was life changing. Keemstar and Cook, you know what saying? On all our platforms, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and yeah, I be making lifestyle content. I avidly support the Play For Keeps, so, you know I'm saying? Support them guys. Jax: Yeah. You do. Greg: He does. He does support financially too. We respect that. We we particulate Jax: Book around Kingjordnabook: Nah, I mean, it was funny last time you were like, your money, you get married. was like, pretty sure. Greg: He's getting married, man. I gotta look out for you financially, man. But anyway, Jax, any last words? Jax: Yeah. Yeah. Kingjordnabook: series. Jax: ⁓ true. Speaking backing off of what you said a little bit earlier, rest in peace to Cyrus Carmack Belton, the fourteen year old kid that was killed by that ⁓ Asian shop owner. He was wrongfully accused of stealing out their store. He didn't. Camera evidence showed that he didn't. They still chased him down for I believe like a hundred and thirty yards and then shot him. Greg: I still don't believe I still don't believe the old man shot that nigga, but I'm not gonna lie to you. I think I think the son I think the son did it. Jax: Regardless, yeah. Regardless, somebody needs to be in prison for that. Nobody is in prison for that. It's annoying and it's low n when I heard about it, I was low-key. I was talking about my cousin, but I was low-key surprised. I was like, damn, we're still doing that? Like when I saw the verdict, I was like, ⁓ wow, like we're still doing like it's annoying. It's pisses me off, but like man, rest in peace to him. And everybody on that jury who voted not guilty, like Greg: Yeah, it's crazy. Yeah now. Yeah. Jax: I'm not saying y'all are as bad as Rick Chow, who's a guy who ⁓ got off, but y'all are y'all are still deplorable people for doing that. 'Cause be so fucking for real. He didn't do he didn't do anything wrong. Nobody even if he did steal, nobody deserves to die for stealing a bottle of water. So he didn't he didn't even steal it. Camera show he didn't. Greg: Really? Kingjordnabook: Filp in the pub. Greg: That's crazy. And and be and being chased 130 yards. Come on. Jax: Yeah, there's no there's no excuse for any of that. So everybody on that jury you did a terrible job. And you're gonna have to you probably you won't answer for it now in your life now, but you will have to answer answer for it at some point. So Greg: Yeah, it was dumb. Yeah, man. Yes, that's crazy. And ⁓ as far as for me, man, look, live your life to the fullest. All right. Go get a bag. Go talk to that girl. Or don't talk to that girl. It's your life. Kingjordnabook: Hurry up. Jax: And if you go get a bag, don't don't get a Terra Rosier bag. Don't don't do it like that. Do it do it in a better way. Greg: ⁓ Do not get no Terry Rosier bag, no Jonte Porter bag. ⁓ keep it Jan Sport. You know what I mean? Clear bag. Mesh. See-through. All right. We need this the legal way. All right. ⁓ but without further ado, we'll catch y'all next week, hopefully, with a playoffs that's already done. We'll catch y'all next week. All Kingjordnabook: is clear.
