0:57
Speaker 2: have it's wide open spaces, man, just to have it
1:00

1:11
Speaker 1: with your wine or whatever. That's man, A whole bunch
1:14
Speaker 1: of people went out there, Bro, Remember oh I told you.
1:17
Speaker 1: I'm like, Bro, there's like ten to twelve people just
1:19
Speaker 1: hanging out over there in the little because they got
1:22
Speaker 1: tables set up out there and stuff too.
1:23
Speaker 2: So it's like a nice little vibe you. I want
1:26
Speaker 2: to ask you something. It's something I always talk to
1:28
Speaker 2: people about. Does the weather stop you from doing something?
1:31
Speaker 2: Because like you see things going on like parades and
1:35
Speaker 2: stuff outside, You're like, it's too hot for that hour,
1:38
Speaker 2: Like I'm not going out on the rim one hundred percent.
1:40
Speaker 1: Yeah, the weather affects your decisions. I'm very like when
1:43
Speaker 1: it's summer, bro. Yeah, like I'm not trying to hang
1:46
Speaker 1: outside at all.
1:47
Speaker 3: Bro.
1:47
Speaker 4: I was just telling AJ before we started recording, Bro.
1:50
Speaker 1: I hate when I like earlier, I wrapped that car, yeah,
1:55
Speaker 1: and I sweated thog and I haven't had a chance
1:58
Speaker 1: to go home and shower.
1:59
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. I hate that feeling.
2:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's like the worst feeling is knowing you need
2:04
Speaker 1: a shower but you still got to be out.
2:06
Speaker 2: I hate that your musty, crusty, dusty.
2:09
Speaker 4: No facts, the musk is just radiating.
2:11
Speaker 1: Bro.
2:12
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I'm the same way. But there's all the
2:14
Speaker 2: people like I'm like, oh, the weathers look like they're like, oh,
2:17
Speaker 2: we're going to be I'm like, I don't even want
2:19
Speaker 2: to travel in the ring, yo. I just want to
2:21
Speaker 2: stay home and chill now.
2:24
Speaker 1: No, especially with the way the rain, Like that storm
2:26
Speaker 1: the other day, Bro, it was insane, Like oh yeah
2:29
Speaker 1: or whatever, that was a crazy storm.
2:31
Speaker 4: Bro. Place was like flooded and everything.
2:35
Speaker 1: That's the thing about out here, man, It'd be dumb
2:38
Speaker 1: and insanely hot, and then like crazy and storm and
2:42
Speaker 1: like literally like ten fifteen minutes later, Bro, like the
2:45
Speaker 1: clouds just overtake Florida.
2:47
Speaker 4: Man, they say that we're going to be in that
2:51
Speaker 4: super El Nino, which is going.
2:53
Speaker 1: To give like more like scattered showers and like storms
2:57
Speaker 1: like that, but less like hurricanes.
2:59
Speaker 2: Let's go. So it just shouldn't be like because normally
3:02
Speaker 2: it arranged July fourth. I remember it always range your
3:05
Speaker 2: life forth because youve got to stop wait for the
3:07
Speaker 2: ragna stop to start sending off the fireworks. Yo.
3:12
Speaker 1: It's kind of crazy to fifty two and fifty years
3:14
Speaker 1: of America, Like that's kind of wild. Made this we're
3:20
Speaker 1: still kind of young even, you know what I mean,
3:22
Speaker 1: and we're at that like we're at that range that historically,
3:25
Speaker 1: like civilizations start to fail around this time. So it's
3:30
Speaker 1: just kind of startling where we're at, you know what
3:34
Speaker 1: I mean. But that ties in perfectly to like the
3:38
Speaker 1: World Cup they've been And that's the funny thing too,
3:42
Speaker 1: Like all these renovations they've been doing, like the last
3:45
Speaker 1: few years, all these arenas and stuff has all been
3:47
Speaker 1: tied to this like World Cup.
3:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I mean, And that brings in
3:51
Speaker 2: so much for the economy, and they knew it was
3:53
Speaker 2: coming here.
3:54
Speaker 1: But it's been funny seeing like all the Europeans, just
3:59
Speaker 1: not even this Europe, but like South Americans, you know, Africans.
4:02
Speaker 2: People have never had any desire to be here for
4:04
Speaker 2: any reason. Now have a reason and they're here.
4:07
Speaker 1: Yeah.
4:08
Speaker 2: I seen him.
4:08
Speaker 1: I was watching Bill Maher the other day. He had
4:10
Speaker 1: a clip of this dude from Australia that made a
4:13
Speaker 1: video like basically I don't even notice, and I don't
4:15
Speaker 1: know how accurate it is, but he was like that.
4:17
Speaker 1: In Australia, they try to make the US and Americans
4:20
Speaker 1: seem like the bad guy oh yeah, and he was
4:23
Speaker 1: like when he came out here, he was like, Bro,
4:25
Speaker 1: like the same, you know what I mean. I didn't
4:26
Speaker 1: see any of what like I was taught, you know
4:28
Speaker 1: what I mean. And even just you know, people going
4:32
Speaker 1: to a waffle house and being like amazed, Bro, you
4:35
Speaker 1: know what I mean, like thinking about like imagine you're
4:38
Speaker 1: going back to your country and you're just like over there.
4:42
Speaker 2: I saw one where there was two guys who got
4:44
Speaker 2: to the game and they're walking through the parking lot
4:47
Speaker 2: and they see the people tailgating and they take a
4:49
Speaker 2: picture like we're told, this is tailgating, this is what
4:52
Speaker 2: they do before a game, and they invite us to
4:55
Speaker 2: hang out. They're gonna go back, like you know what
4:57
Speaker 2: a tailgate is. Bro.
5:00
Speaker 1: That's like one of those things that like I always
5:02
Speaker 1: related to when people say that we're living in the
5:05
Speaker 1: worst times. I'm like, bro, you know there was people
5:07
Speaker 1: alive during World War two, right, like you know, it
5:10
Speaker 1: was like other times in history that are way worse
5:13
Speaker 1: than the times we're in. And the way that these
5:17
Speaker 1: foreigners react to the US, it shows you, like.
5:20
Speaker 4: Bro, we are in a good you know what I'm saying,
5:23
Speaker 4: A good situation, good space.
5:24
Speaker 2: There was a lot of good stories. It was a
5:26
Speaker 2: good like shining light. Yeah times, but I think that's why.
5:30
Speaker 2: I also, you know, and this is the first time
5:34
Speaker 2: US not the first time. This is another chance US
5:38
Speaker 2: has to They've never made it past the knockout stage.
5:41
Speaker 2: So if they win a night, it's the biggest win
5:44
Speaker 2: ever in history. Advanced as far as they've ever advanced.
5:47
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was funny, man, because like I don't, you know,
5:49
Speaker 1: I don't follow soccer at all, but I always hear
5:51
Speaker 1: some of it in all the sports shows I watch,
5:54
Speaker 1: and people weren't really given us any like they weren't
5:58
Speaker 1: really caring about them.
5:59
Speaker 4: So actually playing decent, Yeah, no, they they've been decent.
6:02
Speaker 2: But so the World Cup change as far as the
6:05
Speaker 2: amount of teams now they have forty eight teams? How
6:08
Speaker 2: many before thirty two? Thirty two? So forty eight now
6:12
Speaker 2: goes to the thirty two Originally it started different. I
6:16
Speaker 2: might get those numbers right, but yeah, so they added
6:18
Speaker 2: a bunch and it expanded for pretty much. US had
6:21
Speaker 2: to win two games to get where they're at now.
6:24
Speaker 2: Now they only had to win that last one, you
6:26
Speaker 2: know what I mean. So it's still big, But I
6:32
Speaker 2: think the support now, especially July fourth and two hundred
6:35
Speaker 2: and fifty celebration, I think it's I think.
6:39
Speaker 1: It's has made a big difference in that too, Like
6:42
Speaker 1: the MLS team's really like going all out and paying
6:45
Speaker 1: like Messi and these players like that to come over
6:48
Speaker 1: here and play, even even when they're a little older.
6:51
Speaker 1: And even that bro, Like, like I said, I don't
6:53
Speaker 1: follow soccer at all, but Messi was supposed to be washing.
6:56
Speaker 2: He's been balling like it's the same. Bro. It's got
6:59
Speaker 2: turned down billions and to come to Miami with his
7:01
Speaker 2: boys and play like he wants and then he goes
7:04
Speaker 2: right back Like that's crazy that dude.
7:08
Speaker 1: Like I said, Bro, I'm not even going to pretend
7:10
Speaker 1: like I'm a soccer fan, but I've seen clips of
7:12
Speaker 1: him wrong, I'm like, Yo, this dude is cool.
7:14
Speaker 2: Anybody that he's not sight but he just sits there
7:16
Speaker 2: and then once he gets the ball, he's like, oh
7:18
Speaker 2: here I got this. Yeah.
7:20
Speaker 1: It's funny, man, because like you know, I've been coaching
7:23
Speaker 1: my son's basketball team and we just had our third
7:25
Speaker 1: game but our first win. So we lost the first
7:28
Speaker 1: game by like four, We lost the second game by
7:30
Speaker 1: like two, and then we won this one by like
7:33
Speaker 1: twenty one, bro. So it was one of those stays
7:37
Speaker 1: where like the team that I had, they were talented,
7:40
Speaker 1: they were just timid and they didn't realize Like, and
7:44
Speaker 1: it makes me think of MESSI.
7:45
Speaker 3: Like when you when you're like head and shoulders above
7:49
Speaker 3: the people you're playing against, like you really can dictate
7:52
Speaker 3: what you're doing, you know what I mean, Like you
7:54
Speaker 3: control the pace, and like young players, like in basketball,
7:59
Speaker 3: I've noticed like that's the hardest thing for them to
8:02
Speaker 3: understand that they can really like take control of the
8:05
Speaker 3: pacing of the game.
8:06
Speaker 1: Like I have one of the kids on the team
8:08
Speaker 1: that he's not like the best kid, but he gets it.
8:13
Speaker 1: So because of that, he'd be balling, bro, and he'd
8:15
Speaker 1: be you know, he'd be doing things like that is
8:21
Speaker 1: Jaylen Bruston. That's one of those things where like he
8:23
Speaker 1: was kind of like built for this. I mean, like
8:26
Speaker 1: his dad, his dad put him like his dad put
8:29
Speaker 1: him in the situations where like you're the smallest guy.
8:33
Speaker 1: He kind of already knew that he was going to
8:34
Speaker 1: be smaller, so he always put him in with bigger
8:37
Speaker 1: players because it's like, yeah, and that's the thing where
8:40
Speaker 1: Jalen brust did something that other people couldn't do, or
8:43
Speaker 1: he like put together being nice for that size but
8:47
Speaker 1: being able to operate with bigger players, because there's been
8:50
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of players that figure out how to
8:52
Speaker 1: be nice for their size, but not every player can
8:55
Speaker 1: be nice for their size and still like affect the
8:58
Speaker 1: game on a superstar level at their size, you know
9:00
Speaker 1: what I mean. That's why people like AI was so
9:04
Speaker 1: hard to come by, Like, you know, we we haven't
9:05
Speaker 1: heard somebody like that, you know what I mean, because
9:08
Speaker 1: at his size, he was controlling the game in a
9:10
Speaker 1: way that somebody on his size shouldn't.
9:12
Speaker 2: Be controlling the game, you know. And even like speaking
9:16
Speaker 2: of Jalen Brunson, a whole.
9:17
Speaker 1: Bunch of shake up in the NBA, man, Like everybody's
9:20
Speaker 1: being real aggressive, trying to position themselves to actually win
9:25
Speaker 1: this year.
9:26
Speaker 2: I just want to chime real quick. I think I
9:28
Speaker 2: don't think we recorded an episode since the finals was over.
9:31
Speaker 1: Oh we had, oh yeah, yeah, because that week was
9:33
Speaker 1: the one after the We talked That's what it was.
9:36
Speaker 2: We talked about it when we were at the Eye.
9:40
Speaker 1: And it made me think that we already talked about
9:42
Speaker 1: it but yeah, man, that the whole Jalen Brunston didn't
9:48
Speaker 1: like it's crazy because he proved a lot of people wrong,
9:51
Speaker 1: including me.
9:52
Speaker 2: I was, I was also into it.
9:54
Speaker 4: I'm I was like, yo, you're a great player.
9:57
Speaker 1: But there's just a history of this, Like the one
10:00
Speaker 1: that sticks out in my mind is Chris Paul. Chris
10:04
Speaker 1: Paul always you know, decent. You know, they had good teams,
10:08
Speaker 1: even in New Orleans. They had a decent team one year.
10:10
Speaker 1: But it's like when you're that size in the playoffs
10:13
Speaker 1: and you start getting knocked around, you can't last a
10:17
Speaker 1: whole series.
10:17
Speaker 2: Bro.
10:17
Speaker 1: It's the same thing they used to do to Steve
10:19
Speaker 1: Nash was amazing, bro, but in the playoffs they knocked
10:22
Speaker 1: him around and that was it. Jalen Brunson was able
10:27
Speaker 1: to apply pressure all the way through the playoffs and
10:31
Speaker 1: elevate his game in the playoffs in a way that
10:34
Speaker 1: like a smaller player hasn't really been.
10:35
Speaker 2: Able to do.
10:37
Speaker 1: So, like for those kind of guys, he like, he'll
10:42
Speaker 1: probably overtake Iverson for the goat of like that small.
10:46
Speaker 2: Guard, you know what I mean. They talked about that.
10:48
Speaker 1: Because it's like, especially if he keeps up like high
10:51
Speaker 1: level output like he has like the last four years
10:54
Speaker 1: or so before he was I mean, since he's been
10:57
Speaker 1: on the Knicks. Like, if he keeps that up to
10:59
Speaker 1: his whole the next ten year, he'll be up there, Bro,
11:02
Speaker 1: he'll be up there.
11:04
Speaker 2: For me. It was I knew it, but because of
11:07
Speaker 2: the letdowns, you know, just from New York teams in general,
11:11
Speaker 2: and every time I saw it him like, yeah, that's
11:13
Speaker 2: another it too. It was good, but I was I
11:16
Speaker 2: was like, I would not believe it until we win it. Yeah,
11:20
Speaker 2: because until we win, it doesn't matter how good he is. August.
11:23
Speaker 1: But it's funny, man, because like it's that that thing
11:26
Speaker 1: of every dog has his day, bro. Like us in
11:30
Speaker 1: our lifetime, we've seen the Red Sox finally win.
11:33
Speaker 4: We've seen the Calves win, you.
11:36
Speaker 2: Know what I mean.
11:37
Speaker 1: We've seen the Heat win because they never want well
11:39
Speaker 1: they're a newer team anyway, but you know, just the
11:42
Speaker 1: idea of like we've seen a lot of new teams
11:44
Speaker 1: win that never won or were terrible for a long time,
11:47
Speaker 1: you know, like Tampa Bay was terrible for a long
11:50
Speaker 1: time before they finally won that Super Bowl, like the
11:52
Speaker 1: first one before Brady. But it's like every dog has
11:57
Speaker 1: his day and then it's like that thing of like
11:59
Speaker 1: when you break that, what's next, you know what I mean?
12:03
Speaker 1: Like now you start building, like you try to build
12:05
Speaker 1: like a legacy, because that's the thing with the league now, bro,
12:08
Speaker 1: like one is not enough.
12:11
Speaker 2: But see for me and now held, he gave me what.
12:17
Speaker 2: I don't know any other ways say he gave me
12:18
Speaker 2: what I wanted. You know what I'm saying, Uh, I
12:23
Speaker 2: want a big one the Knicks, big Chick Knicks championship.
12:27
Speaker 2: And now I believe in him until he fails. But
12:31
Speaker 2: if he fails, like just fighting his ass off and
12:35
Speaker 2: going hard, I'm like, I know he gave it everything,
12:38
Speaker 2: you know, I think that changes.
12:39
Speaker 1: Another interesting thing is like it's been eight or nine
12:41
Speaker 1: years straight that no team has repeated and it's kind
12:47
Speaker 1: of coincided with when they change the collective bargaining to
12:50
Speaker 1: like let the super teams link up.
12:53
Speaker 4: So it's gonna be it's gonna be interesting to see
12:55
Speaker 4: what all this shake up.
12:56
Speaker 2: Like when the league looks like. And that's perfect because
13:01
Speaker 2: we were going into trade talks like sometimes it matters,
13:05
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter. But if you look back at that,
13:07
Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson and Julius Randall trade. Oh yeah, yeah, and
13:12
Speaker 2: you see how what a big, big impact that trade made.
13:16
Speaker 2: You got to look at the trades that happened today
13:18
Speaker 2: and see what's going to be another Jayden busting man.
13:21
Speaker 1: We were talking about it in the chat earlier. Bro
13:23
Speaker 1: Like man, Julius Randall is one of those that I
13:26
Speaker 1: was always rooming.
13:26
Speaker 4: For and I'm still rooting for him, you know, but like.
13:28
Speaker 1: I he was one of my favorite man. He just
13:31
Speaker 1: he's just be coming up short and then he gets
13:33
Speaker 1: shipped a lot and it's like man like he's and
13:36
Speaker 1: I feel like he's better than that. Like I genuinely
13:38
Speaker 1: feel like somebody grab him in the next couple of years,
13:43
Speaker 1: like on a good team and he locks in, like
13:46
Speaker 1: he could be somebody, bro like as far as like
13:49
Speaker 1: a real piece to like a championship level team. But man,
13:54
Speaker 1: Supposedly they were saying that he was kind of playing
13:57
Speaker 1: a little butt hurt because he was a talks so
14:01
Speaker 1: after the All Star break they were saying he kind
14:03
Speaker 1: of checked out. But it's like, bro, if that if
14:05
Speaker 1: that's the case, like, man, you really need to lock in,
14:08
Speaker 1: bro like, especially man, when you're a player like of
14:12
Speaker 1: that caliber.
14:15
Speaker 4: You gotta at least show your like, show that you
14:19
Speaker 4: could be that guy.
14:20
Speaker 2: The next team that you can still be.
14:22
Speaker 1: Exactly exactly, Like, it's not just your team, bro, it's you,
14:25
Speaker 1: Like you're you're you're doing this for your career, you
14:27
Speaker 1: know what I mean?
14:28
Speaker 2: Like, Yeah, if I know I have other interest in me,
14:33
Speaker 2: I'm still going to show how good I am. Exactly.
14:36
Speaker 1: So hopefully we see him ball. He's on the nets
14:39
Speaker 1: now that they're speculating that he might not stay there,
14:42
Speaker 1: so we'll.
14:42
Speaker 2: See what happens. But man, all the movement, what do
14:45
Speaker 2: you think is the biggest move right now?
14:47
Speaker 4: The biggest move.
14:49
Speaker 2: Has to be your honest to the heat you think?
14:52
Speaker 1: So, yeah, I feel like that one just because I
14:55
Speaker 1: feel like he was the best available player next to
15:01
Speaker 1: he was the obvious best available player. Well, now you
15:05
Speaker 1: got Jalen Brown in the mix, which.
15:08
Speaker 4: You didn't think.
15:09
Speaker 2: They say he's in trade tips.
15:11
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, Like, now, now he's another guy
15:13
Speaker 1: that could go out and help you win the championship.
15:16
Speaker 4: That's that could possibly be out there.
15:18
Speaker 1: You got Java Ran on the bucks, they got like
15:21
Speaker 1: six million guards, So I'm boys gonna happen.
15:23
Speaker 2: There the claw.
15:25
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, kawhi back to the Raptors officially just admitting
15:29
Speaker 1: that the Clopers thing didn't work.
15:31
Speaker 4: That was tough, man, That was a tough saga over
15:34
Speaker 4: there in l A.
15:35
Speaker 2: I think that was the biggest one as far as
15:37
Speaker 2: the impact, because that's showing that the East is like, oh,
15:41
Speaker 2: Johannis on the heat, all right, let's get let's get
15:45
Speaker 2: the East back up.
15:46
Speaker 1: Yah. Yeah, they're definitely and even just the Knicks, the Pacers, Bro,
15:51
Speaker 1: Pacers will sleep all year because of Halliburry. Man, the
15:55
Speaker 1: Pacers are one next year that that really is going
15:58
Speaker 1: to be like, let's see what happened. And they're a
16:00
Speaker 1: sleeper to maybe try to grab some players too, you
16:03
Speaker 1: know what I mean. They haven't been in a lot
16:05
Speaker 1: of talks, but once people know that Halliburn is back,
16:08
Speaker 1: that's that's going to be. It's going to be something, Bro.
16:13
Speaker 2: I think what you.
16:15
Speaker 4: See how the longest on there, sixteen are we got?
16:19
Speaker 2: But yeah, man, who are you talking? I was talking
16:22
Speaker 2: about Halliburn.
16:24
Speaker 4: Halliburn coming back, that that's another team that's just going
16:26
Speaker 4: to be in the mix as well.
16:30
Speaker 1: Lebron he's supposedly they're saying that he's open and taking
16:33
Speaker 1: the minimum, So he'll go to whatever team makes sense
16:36
Speaker 1: as far as like his most immediate chance to win
16:38
Speaker 1: a ring. So that adds a crazy requeal because basically
16:43
Speaker 1: any team that's like one piece away if you adding
16:45
Speaker 1: Lebron to it, and he's not even having to be
16:48
Speaker 1: like the number one guy, like you imagine Lebron in like.
16:52
Speaker 4: A system where all the other players are making stuff work.
16:55
Speaker 1: Even if you're getting fifty percent of Lebron, it's still
16:59
Speaker 1: like one hundred percent of another player.
17:00
Speaker 3: Bro.
17:01
Speaker 2: And he's the type to come in there and say
17:03
Speaker 2: he'll look at the whole situation like all right, this
17:05
Speaker 2: all got, this is all I gotta do. And they
17:07
Speaker 2: listen to him too fat.
17:09
Speaker 1: And this year he really showed that he could play
17:12
Speaker 1: a part of the system and kind of give it
17:13
Speaker 1: up to the main guys or whatever reeves and dunches.
17:18
Speaker 1: So like, I'm not worried about him going somewhere and thinking.
17:21
Speaker 2: He got to be the guy. You know what I mean?
17:23
Speaker 3: Bro?
17:24
Speaker 4: You know he might end up on the heat, bro,
17:27
Speaker 4: Like you never know, Like they.
17:30
Speaker 1: Signed a couple of shooters, they get Little Bron open
17:33
Speaker 1: every single team.
17:35
Speaker 4: Bro, It's insane, man, Like this is. This is gonna
17:38
Speaker 4: be pretty exciting because.
17:39
Speaker 2: He let go Mitchell Robinson. I don't know if he
17:41
Speaker 2: wants to come to you know, bron comes to the
17:43
Speaker 2: next I'm moving in the yark b Mitchell Robinson is
17:47
Speaker 2: low key, the guy that spurs me. Yeah, if they could, like,
17:52
Speaker 2: I don't know, how where did he go he has?
17:54
Speaker 2: I don't think. Yeah, he signs, he signs the world.
17:57
Speaker 4: Let me let me look it up, even even the
18:00
Speaker 4: people that he signed.
18:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't remember right now. Not the Celtics because
18:05
Speaker 2: I'll be pissed. Yeah, I think, I think, uh damn,
18:11
Speaker 2: let me let me confirmed he signed. Yeah, he's gone Celtics.
18:15
Speaker 2: I told you the Celtics.
18:16
Speaker 4: I was like, not the seventeen minutes ago though.
18:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they had the negotiations were being finalized. So
18:23
Speaker 2: now the Celtics, Wow, that's now we get you get
18:27
Speaker 2: to see him all year now. Well they lost Brown though,
18:31
Speaker 2: so I know, be too worried about those are number
18:35
Speaker 2: one rivals.
18:36
Speaker 1: No, I know, I know, but I'm just saying I
18:38
Speaker 1: like y'all. I like y'all chances against without Brown, depending
18:41
Speaker 1: on who they get.
18:42
Speaker 2: I like, oh yeah, aside from chances, I'm pissed. Yeah. Yeah,
18:48
Speaker 2: it's like when they went to the Eagles, he was going.
18:51
Speaker 4: It was kind of the same situation. They just didn't
18:53
Speaker 4: want to pay him.
18:54
Speaker 2: No, but don't do it in a division, have some respect.
18:57
Speaker 2: It so like you break up with a girl data system.
19:00
Speaker 2: He's slid, bro, he said.
19:01
Speaker 4: I don't care, Bro, I'm out of here.
19:02
Speaker 2: I'm out of here, cousin, I knew he was going.
19:05
Speaker 2: Though I knew was going. That's I think everybody kind
19:08
Speaker 2: of knew.
19:08
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a piece I was expecting. He was
19:10
Speaker 4: the one that that they for sure weren't going to
19:12
Speaker 4: have the money for.
19:12
Speaker 2: Like I said, I think I'm mad about it.
19:14
Speaker 1: Is the Celtics more than yeah, you know, speaking of
19:18
Speaker 1: somebody doing slimmy things bro.
19:22
Speaker 2: Group chats.
19:24
Speaker 1: So, I've been seeing a lot of stuff about group chats,
19:27
Speaker 1: like on TikTok lady, like little funny videos and stuff.
19:30
Speaker 1: And it's a consensus online that the sensitive, the super
19:37
Speaker 1: sensitive person in the group chat that always uh like
19:42
Speaker 1: goes too far with the comebacks.
19:44
Speaker 4: It's always the one that's the most hated in the
19:46
Speaker 4: group chat.
19:48
Speaker 1: Luckily, the one that we're in together that we don't
19:51
Speaker 1: ever have anybody that goes for like the stabs, you.
19:54
Speaker 2: Know what I mean.
19:55
Speaker 4: But like I've been in group chats.
19:57
Speaker 2: Some people walk the line, but it's not every day.
19:59
Speaker 2: But you can tell you like, all right, you made
20:02
Speaker 2: sure you stay like exactly. We don't ever throw the
20:05
Speaker 2: serious one out there. I see where you're going with that.
20:07
Speaker 2: It's funny.
20:08
Speaker 1: But I've always been and I'm pretty sure you have,
20:10
Speaker 1: like been in a group chat where like there's always
20:12
Speaker 1: like you got always one friend that's matter emotional.
20:16
Speaker 4: That being in a group chat.
20:17
Speaker 2: I can say his name, but I'm not gonna do that.
20:20
Speaker 1: Like they always say like too far stuff like they
20:22
Speaker 1: bring up like personal stories and stuff. They leave the
20:25
Speaker 1: chat in a huff like and don't come back for
20:27
Speaker 1: like a week, you know what I mean. And it's like, bro,
20:30
Speaker 1: like it's put it together. A group chat is low key,
20:34
Speaker 1: like a like a little formula dog, Like, yeah, you
20:36
Speaker 1: gotta really.
20:38
Speaker 2: You gotta know how to not be the one that's
20:41
Speaker 2: getting roasted. Sometimes you're going to catch damn. And I
20:44
Speaker 2: said that, you know somebody, you got to make sure
20:49
Speaker 2: you pick the right side because if you pick the
20:51
Speaker 2: wrong side, then you're gonna have to argue with the
20:52
Speaker 2: people who picked the side against If you if you
20:56
Speaker 2: have somebody's message against something else, that means both of
20:59
Speaker 2: y'all said it, you know what I'm saying, yeah or
21:02
Speaker 2: not fact. So it's like someone's handshake right now. Yeah,
21:06
Speaker 2: some of those jabblin you someone else likes it, you
21:08
Speaker 2: go straight for the other person. That's funny to you.
21:11
Speaker 2: Oh you're laughing, I got some for you. It's hilarious.
21:15
Speaker 2: I feel like these are unwritten rules of group chats.
21:18
Speaker 4: Non facts, and then the people that.
21:21
Speaker 1: Don't understand those rules them be the ones that are
21:23
Speaker 1: not in group chats, like the people that don't got
21:26
Speaker 1: no no group chat or get out on one or
21:28
Speaker 1: something like that.
21:29
Speaker 2: Etiquette non facts. You always you always gotta know.
21:34
Speaker 1: Like like I said, bro, it's like a little science
21:36
Speaker 1: experiment whenever you're putting one together, you know what. Even
21:39
Speaker 1: like for like the fantasy league, you know what I mean,
21:42
Speaker 1: Like the fantasy league is a little easier because you
21:44
Speaker 1: don't necessarily have to like have everybody on the same page.
21:49
Speaker 4: Everybody just has to play. The only thing that really
21:51
Speaker 4: messes up a fantasy league.
21:53
Speaker 1: Is the people that just stop playing that Everybody's like, yo,
21:56
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a by this weekend.
21:57
Speaker 2: Reach out to nobody. Yeah yeah, those people, those are
22:02
Speaker 2: my those are my least favorite. And then any group
22:05
Speaker 2: chat if you never talk, never respond, never just react
22:12
Speaker 2: to anything while you're in here. Literally, why you're in here,
22:14
Speaker 2: get out?
22:15
Speaker 4: I don't want you to just But then the one
22:16
Speaker 4: like that always wants to be in it though.
22:18
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they don't want. They don't say anything until
22:21
Speaker 2: you kick them out while you take me out the chat. Sorry,
22:25
Speaker 2: Like bro, you got kick for an activity?
22:26
Speaker 3: Bro?
22:27
Speaker 2: Yeah my chat like you move your controller for long?
22:30
Speaker 2: Yeah for real.
22:31
Speaker 1: But I think that's like the only like unacceptable in
22:37
Speaker 1: the group chat, Like the taking personal stats, I think
22:40
Speaker 1: feel like everything else, everybody's like.
22:42
Speaker 2: Cool with it, like you know, it depends the dynamic though,
22:44
Speaker 2: Like you know, like our group chat, it started off
22:49
Speaker 2: because it was new. I think, like the group the
22:52
Speaker 2: dynamic between everybody, it.
22:53
Speaker 4: Really started off because we were the ones that played duty.
22:56
Speaker 2: Yeah no, but remember it was like that was the dynamic,
22:59
Speaker 2: and then it started getting personal. But I'm like, I
23:02
Speaker 2: think after all these years, we all adapted and now
23:04
Speaker 2: we all know each other. Yeah yeah, so we know
23:06
Speaker 2: where to navigate. But like you said, like the fantasy
23:09
Speaker 2: groups and I'll be random fantasy groups and people be
23:12
Speaker 2: talking wild. I'm like, oh no, I can't be in
23:14
Speaker 2: this group. And then I hear my boy, I'm like, yo,
23:16
Speaker 2: just ride me on the side.
23:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wasn't a I did a fantasy league like
23:22
Speaker 1: mad long ago with like all my all my old.
23:25
Speaker 4: Friends in the neighborhood.
23:26
Speaker 3: Bro.
23:27
Speaker 4: Oh my, I stopped doing it. That was the last
23:29
Speaker 4: time I did it, bro.
23:30
Speaker 1: And then it was like you know, like when you
23:32
Speaker 1: have to vote if you approve trades or not, you
23:35
Speaker 1: know what I mean. It was one of them type
23:37
Speaker 1: of leagues. And then like when somebody will get their
23:41
Speaker 1: dream veto when it was an obvious.
23:43
Speaker 2: Fleece, Oh my gosh.
23:45
Speaker 1: Bro, they will go insane in the chat bro, like
23:48
Speaker 1: like I said, taking personal shots and stuff in insane. Bro.
23:52
Speaker 4: They got yo the guy that one.
23:54
Speaker 1: Bro.
23:55
Speaker 4: My boy read the recipees.
23:57
Speaker 2: Man. He passed away like like a year or two ago.
24:00
Speaker 4: And when he won, Bro, he.
24:03
Speaker 1: Hit me up as soon as the whistle blue in
24:06
Speaker 1: the last game to set him the payout.
24:09
Speaker 4: Like literally, like that exact moment.
24:11
Speaker 1: I'm like, dog, I'm still out, like hanging out, you
24:14

24:28
Speaker 1: One time we read we were planning the trip to Denver.
24:31
Speaker 1: Bro again the group chat, we made a chat. You
24:35
Speaker 1: know how that goes.
24:36
Speaker 4: The chat is like twelve people.
24:39
Speaker 1: By the time it's time to put deposits, it's eight people,
24:42
Speaker 1: and by the time it's like the real people that's going,
24:44
Speaker 1: it's like four or five, you know.
24:47
Speaker 4: But Reed was one of the ones that was for
24:49

Speaker 2: Man.
25:04
Speaker 4: I put the money aside for the trip and my
25:05
Speaker 4: old lady spend it.
25:07
Speaker 2: They were like, Bro, but you.
25:09
Speaker 1: Already got to stand by and everything supposedly like we
25:12
Speaker 1: was already locked in, like and we were laughing about
25:15
Speaker 1: it because like he was supposed to be there.
25:17
Speaker 4: You know, like he flaked literally as we were at
25:19
Speaker 4: the airport, Bro and that.
25:21
Speaker 1: But that trip ended up being super far. That was
25:23
Speaker 1: like a random group trip because it was me and
25:27
Speaker 1: me and my boy Jay and Wheelow. That Wheelow at
25:31
Speaker 1: that time, he was still kind of like the little brother,
25:34
Speaker 1: Like it was the first time we all really hung
25:35
Speaker 1: out like that because he was like one of our
25:37
Speaker 1: friend's little brother, so like it was like the first
25:40
Speaker 1: time we were really doing something like that. And then
25:42
Speaker 1: Freddy he came as the camera man and it was
25:46
Speaker 1: Freddy's first time flying and everything.
25:48
Speaker 2: Wow, So it was like a crazy.
25:50
Speaker 1: Little dynamic and we did like a whole little like
25:52
Speaker 1: recap music video for it and everything.
25:54
Speaker 2: It was super dope. I remember the content from that,
25:58
Speaker 2: but yeah, and I guess we could kind of wrap
26:01
Speaker 2: up with that.
26:02
Speaker 1: Man, but I definitely want to hear what people say
26:05
Speaker 1: about the group chat thing, because that's always funny to
26:08
Speaker 1: be man, what was your question?
26:10
Speaker 2: What is the worst type of person?
26:12
Speaker 4: What's the worst type of person in the group chat?
26:14
Speaker 4: That makes you just be like, I don't even want
26:17
Speaker 4: to be in here anymore.
26:17
Speaker 1: And then the part that sucks to is that you
26:20
Speaker 1: can't even leave because it shows that you leave and
26:22
Speaker 1: it's like you're being dramatic, you know what I mean?
26:24
Speaker 2: And then the chat goes on for another thirty minutes.
26:27
