Jax: Wait, wait, wait, before he gets to the rest of the show real fast, would you rather have a impersonator son or a stampede's daughter? Greg: Impersonate her son. Wait, wait when we were talking about they are good, at their peaks, they're at the peak of their game. this is like the Jax: for impersonating? I'm talking about would you rather have a Fabio Jackson's son or yeah, Fabio Jackson's son or a Nicki Minaj, Stan Page dog? Greg: Yeah. And and they're like this is the stand page for them. niggas go to her like, yeah, she she a superstand, she got mad followers in her? Jax: Yeah, one of them, one of them super duper sand. Every, for both of them, they're both the extremes of the equa... Greg: Impersonate her son. Impersonator son. Cause at in and at bare minimum, I know you can get money off of it. So it's like, okay, you you at least been Jax: You get that blue check, you get money? Dizzy? Greg: Okay, well hear me out. Is the stamp page is it faceless or do it got her face on it? Jax: It has Nicki Minaj's face on it. It's one of them. Greg: okay. Damn. fuck. So they don't really know her identity. Jax: Yeah, nah. Greg: Actually I I flip it. Give me the stamp page daughter. Jax: I'll take the stand. Greg: Because if if my impersonator son is on a Fabio Jackson level, niggas gonna look at me like, damn, that's what you raised? You ra where the fuck is his dad?

Yeah, that nigga she need a father in her fucking life. God damn. I can just downplay this thing. You pick a y you picking daughter? You pick a son. Absolutely. Jax: Yeah, I was picking the daughter too. Because you can't walk around dressed like someone. Stop it. Even if it pisses me off. Stop it. Greg: You can't prove that that's my daughter, bro. That's crazy. Jax: until she says something crazy and you get doxxed. Greg: Now now I got Cardi B stands to fucking up my house. This is for Meg. All right, bro. Please. Hell no. But anyway, as we Divulge and continue Donation Donation Here comes the money. So Great, man. let's go ahead and get into the things real quick. We do not care that we just do not care about things that just did not make the cut because we do have a lot of exciting things to talk about. We have a lot of controversial things to talk about, beefs, the whole nine, everything. But first things first, Jay Z has committed to doing the halftime show. Big shocker. Huge shocker. anybody that's been kind of following kind of knew that this nigga was soft launching, doing the Super Bowl halftime show. Normally we would have found out in August, late July, early August, normally when the halftime show is. Then this niggas out here talking about some, you know, it's kinda hard to find. It's kinda hard to find somebody to do the Super Bowl. First of all, Tyler has he pain right there, nigga. It is not that hard. If you really wanted to try. If you really wanted to try. Jax: Listen, Listen, bro. Greg: Me and Jax will continue to campaign for this nigga until he he finally gets up there. And I feel like every year it gets we it's a higher chance that this nigga gets up there every year we campaign campaign about him. But yeah, this n this nigga Jay-Z decides, hey, I'ma cut my I'ma cut my hair. Not even cut my hair, I'ma do undo my dreads. I'm a I'm a I'm a soft lunch hitting this hoe. I'ma do my my Hove you know concert, concert Jax: the concert series and yeah. Greg: series in New York, NYC, just to, you know, let niggas know, just just put little breadcrumbs out here, here and there. Jax, what is your reaction? How do you feel about Hove? Jax: I Cool, I guess. Greg: Nigga said it's not Tallahassee, so it's like I guess nigga like we Jax: I know he's like, he's the head of the whole process for finding X in the first place. People were saying he was gonna do it. I didn't think he would just cause I thought he'd have some sort of like, no, let me not put myself on. But I mean, man, I'm not the biggest Jay-Z fan. I know everybody, I know the Jay-Z songs and everything, all the big ones and stuff, but I ain't the biggest Jay-Z fan. I mean, he's gonna bring out Beyonce for what? Crazy in Love or Drunken. One of those Blank in Love songs. He's gonna bring out Alicia Keys for the New York song. He's gonna do that, we can probably guess his track. Like can do those songs. He's probably gonna do that like the 8th to the Izzo with that song. What is it? He's gonna, his first song is gonna be that, Allow Me To Introduce Myself, My Name Is A Doe. That's gonna be the first song he plays. Greg: Hey this nigga this nigga got the whole track. Jax: But it's obvious, it's clearly, why would, duh, of course it's the intro song you played it at. So he's gonna do that, freaking, you think he's gonna do a Kanye song? Kanye's not gonna be there, but you think he's gonna do any of the Kanye songs? Greg: I wish nah. Jax: What's a what's a what's like Otis or an archaic on the phone Greg: Hell no, he can't do Otis. He can't do Otis. He can't do niggas in Paris. Jax: Yeah, was like, yeah, niggas in Paris is too, like you can't perform that. Greg: He might be able to do was it to the moon or to the way we when Beyonce come in or we could take it to the moon, take it to the star. He he probably could do that one. But there's not a lot Jax: yeah, yeah, Greg: that he can. There's not a lot what was the Church in maybe maybe no church in wild, maybe. But that don't really feel like no Super Bowl ass song. Jax: Regardless, I mean, I'm gonna watch it. I'm gonna watch it because I'm gonna be Greg: What's a king to a god? What's a god to a king? Jax: at Super Bowl or I'm gonna be watching Super Bowl. So I'm gonna see this performed, but like, I don't really care Greg: I'm about to sound like nigga, when you when you get tickets, nigga? Jax: though. Like, ooh, Jay-Z, nice. Greg: Where's a what what what city what city do they have it? LA? Jax: LA, LA. Greg: Do we have do we have any does he have songs with LA niggas? that are big? Jax: I know he wrote Still Dre. And he got the, the bitch don't kill my vibe, the remix. He's on that. Greg: He ain't he he ain't do shit with he did do that. he re he used to remix a lot of shit. Remember when he remixed that Joe Button pump it up. Jax: He could do Pump It Up. That's a that's everybody, Greg: He could do probability. Jax: that's a Pump It Up classic song. People like that. Greg: It's a very classic song. I'm not I'm not mad, but Yeah. it's Jax: And cool, guess. Greg: Don't let them know don't let them New York niggas find out. Jax: Whatever. Greg: These bum ass niggas don't know music. All right, bro, please. Jax: I'll be that. Fuck, I'll be that. Greg: Anyway. We do not care. before we move on to another Jay, there's a whole bunch of Jays on the We Do Not Care, but let's let's let's go to baseball real quick. The Milwaukee Brewers. Milwaukee Brewers is the second team that is a part of the World Series. originally it was Who's the other team? Tampa Bay? Was it the Rays? Jax: Yeah, I remember hearing that. Greg: Tampa Bay, yeah. Tampa Bay race. They're waiting for their final opponent. The opponent is the Milwaukee Brewers. Now, the problem with the Milwaukee Brewers is in is that they are in a bit of a controversy right now. Because They had a $1,000 timeless ticket that they had for sale back in 2015. For their fans, back in 2015, they had a sale about timeless tickets. You buy this 1,000 timeless ticket, it'll be good for whatever game in the future, whenever, wherever. Does it matter? and I think they only had I think I think they only had 100 or 200 of those tickets or whatever that they sold. It was like, no exceptions, no nothing. These niggas finally make the World Series. And niggas are saying we need to cash in. And the Milwaukee Brewers obviously didn't get the logistics right or didn't think this was gonna happen as soon as it was, because now. Niggas can't really claim their tickets because other niggas have been buying the the actual the actual seas them them shit sold out so quick. The the Milwaukee Brewers going to the World Series. Yeah. And once they got them niggas started filling this shit up. So now they're coming out with different things, like, okay, like, you know, we handled this poorly. We're still trying to figure things out. Jax: That's funny. Greg: I don't I don't know what the r I don't know what the resolution is gonna be or if they've made one. Jax: They don't know either. Greg: okay, niggas like, we didn't get this far. We thought we were just gonna take your money for real, for real, but nigga. Like I I didn't know. But yeah, a thousand dollars? If I was a timeless ticket nigga, first of all, Jax, would you ever buy a timeless ticket? Jax: Well, obviously I'd be holding out hope we can go do if we can go to a playoff game or go to a Super Bowl and hell yeah, but Greg: Yeah. Jax: Yeah, I would I think that's a good deal to be completely honest or quick. He only was it one time Greg: I'm I'm assuming. I don't know. Yeah, I'm assuming. Well, I like I like I don't I don't know what was entailed in like the timeless ticket. Jax: Well, I would just hold now hope like it can work in the playoffs and stuff. Because like I think that's a really good deal. Because I believe a team like I obviously wouldn't get for the Brewers because I'm not a Brewers fan. But if it was like the Cowboys or whatever, hell yeah, great deal. Greg: Here. Jax: So yeah, of course I do that. Greg: Yeah, it was they could pay one thousand dollars for a Thomas ticket while reportedly promising fans they could redeem the ticket for the best available seat at any game in the future. Jax: yeah, for sure do that. Greg: Yeah, so it was one game, but it's the b yeah you're entitled to the best available seed. Jax: Nah, guess I would easily do that. Easily. Greg: I'll do that. I would do that for four thousand? Nigga, Jax: Yeah. Greg: that's a that's a steal, especially for NBA. Course, all right. Jax: Yeah, that would be tough too. Greg: You know what I mean? That's like a a course size a course I see to like the NBA finals. Or even the best available. Jax: But just like, I would do, like I said, I would do that just with the caveat that like, do not hold me. Like they hold the Brewers fans. Greg: Yeah, they did they definitely did hold hold the brewers. Damn. What what what sport would you do it for? Jax: Cowboys football. Easy. Greg: Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. So you would just do you would just do a a playoff game. 'Cause Super Bowls don't be happening on home fields like that. Jax: Yeah, I just, whenever home playoff game, get to the NFC championship, well, that's not gonna happen no time soon, one can hope. Them fans, they waited 10 years. Yeah, Pass that bitch down to my kids. Greg: Hey, but you can you can hold on to that bitch. You know what I mean? Hold that hold on to that bitch as long as you can. I would do it. Jax: Pass it on to my kids, bro. Greg: 'Cause the resale value probably go crazy. Jax: You probably can't resell that. You probably can't. Greg: yeah, you're right. You're right, you're right. Yeah. I'll for sure do it for the NBA Finals, bro. cap. Jax: I'll be first. Greg: Cause that'd be like, especially if it's like Damn, if you were the Knicks without knowing how far you're gonna go against the Spurs, when what game would you cash that out at? You'd go game one? Jax: Game one, easily, yeah. Cuz you don't know how long the series is gonna be. And then also it's the Knicks first time getting to chip in, what was it, 53 years? So yeah, game one, going crazy. Greg: Yeah. So title so technically game three, 'cause the Spurs had their first two at home. So you usually shit, 'cause game Jax: yeah, first home game. Greg: three went crazy. Them niggas was down thirty and then came back and won that bitch. Jax: Yup. Greg: shit. Damn. But James Dolan a whole ass nigga, so it wouldn't even matter. Which is why we do not care. We'll go straight into the next we do not care. James Dolan is a whole ass nigga, unlike the the Milwaukee Brewers. He didn't have a timeless ticket. But that nigga Jax: note. Greg: did one of the biggest phishing emails we've ever seen before. James Dolan, for people that don't know, is the owner or governor of the New York Knicks. the infamous niggas do not like him. They never did like him. he was synonymous. Jax: They still don't like him. Greg: They still don't like him. niggas been begging for decades for this nigga to sell the team because the team was trash. Jax: You Greg: they got some new people in there while still keeping him. And they did something very historic last this past season and win the NBA championship after a fifth after a 53-year drought. Now, normally when people win a championship, the players get one, the players get a championship ring, employees, assistant coaches, the whole nine. but what James Dolan decided to do was give send out a phishing email to New York employees telling them, hey, Madison Square Garden employees about, Jax: Madison Square Garden employees. Yeah. Greg: hey, your ring, your ring is ready. it's it's let us know which one you want to do. You know, it's free of charge. You don't have to, you don't have to pay anything. Thank you for your service. Just just fill out which just pick the one that you you want, whether it's the cloud that they have like two or three different types of rings that you can get. And Once they clicked that link and tried to press and and customize whatever, they got a big ass, you've been fished. And instead of Jax: You Greg: getting a championship ring, they had a mandatory cybersecurity training that they had to do instead. And niggas are upset, Jax, as a nigga that I know had to go through phishing emails as well. It reactions to all of this. Jax: One, regardless if it was phishing or not, I would have clicked on it just because, I know the program, like that's a normal thing. Like staff and everything, they get that. So I for sure would have clicked it. And then I also would have clicked it because them phishing emails, they do be getting me, unfortunately. Like the most got me a couple times, most pissed me off. But since this happened though, there's been obvious backlash because niggas already don't like James Olin. just gave him another reason to hate him. But he came out and said, okay, fine, we're gonna give everybody rings. So he is going to end up giving them. I don't know what the rings will look like or whatever. But I think they say he's gonna end up giving out like total of like 375 rings, I think, for like the staff and stuff like that. Which Greg: Yeah, nigga. Yeah. Yeah. Very simple stuff. this is not like a he's not doing nobody no fucking favor. This is the standard of what normally happens. So this nigga out here talking Jax: Yes. Greg: about some, yeah, you know, I I'ma yeah, you're doing what you're supposed to do. That's like a father out here, I look, I'm I'm I'm gonna change the darpies. I'm a I'ma I'ma raise my kid. Yeah, duh, good. Jax: Good. Greg: What the fuck you supposed to do in the first place? I'm not cheering for that. Jax: Yeah. Greg: That doesn't make niggas feel better. No, that's not not to say that niggas are entitled to shit, but it's just nigga, you see the standard across the board. I know every organization is different. just like I think I think with for the the Marlins like for baseball, like they have like a a three-tier system of like three there's like three different types of rings. Like the, you know, the some people get like the third tier ring. The of course like the the players get like the first tier rings, but I think even like the players that like recently get traded before a certain time, they'll at least get a the second tier ring or whatever, even though some of them niggas don't even accept it or whatever Jax: another team. Greg: the f case may be. But it's just all right, bet. And I know there was some some confusion about like the assistant coaches as well. I know that like they were saying that during the ceremony they didn't have their they they were given boxes, but those boxes didn't have rings in them. But that's like a that's a normal thing. that's not like that that it does make sense. Jax: It doesn't make it less funny. It doesn't make it less funny. Greg: But I think a lot of people are trying to conflate both reports as in like these assistant coaches like failed for a phishing email and now they're not getting a ring, but you're giving them a bitch ass box. Something now that's that's totally different. Them coaches are for sure going to get those fucking rings. Like that's that would be bullshit. That that's that's some Tom Dunden that shit. It is not not that far, all right? Jax: Don't let the Blazers win. Don't let the Blazers win. They won't. But don't let the Blazers win nothing. No time soon with Tom Dundas out there. I don't say that much. Greg: Man, if if you saw that first if you saw that first game against the Phoenix Suns, man, look, they might win some. Jax: It's the suns. That's, the suns. Greg: You right. You right. Absolutely. But as we continue, last we do not care. Not least, Josh Jacobs. It can Jax: It can't be least. It can't be. Greg: be. he's apparently cleared the play. I don't know if that video's dropped, but Jax: They said, don't think, I'm surprised, remember, it's gonna drop as, after he takes Greg: Okay. Jax: his first carry, that heel's gonna drop. And it's gonna get so much worse, but. Greg: Niggas have been so intentional about videos dropping at a certain time that I'm expecting it to drop at the at the absolute worst time. you don't you don't we Jax: I'm s- Greg: we don't get four and five different waves of Diana Roussini throughout the offseason and don't think that this video not gonna drop at the worst opportune time for this nigga. Jax: Yeah. Greg: It's gonna happen. Jax: shoot, I'm still waiting for the band video to drop, the band and hero video to drop. Greg: That one that that one I am. I am and that one might take a little bit long 'cause I think we we recently got the the Isaiah's Stewart drop a couple weeks ago when he had punched when he had punched Eubanks or whatever. Yes, Jax: wait, he punched whatever his name was. Yeah. Greg: that took a calendar year. So Jax: I guess. Greg: Basketball moves slow when it wanna move slow. It picks up speed when it's Jordan Poole. But Yeah, it's not it's not looking good. Fuck that nigga. Jax: But yeah, we don't care about that. But you was talking about videos. One more video. This is a we do not care, but one more video dropped and this is former ESPN current Trump staffer. Her name is Britt McHenry and she was recently at a Wizards game and she's now getting back glass because she threw her drink at somebody. yeah, you feel me? She threw her drink, she flicked him off, walking away, I she's getting kicked out of stadium or whatever. And because of this... She ended up losing her job. She's forced to resign. But the reason I bring this up, because I don't care about this, but I you to know who she was first. The reason I bring this up is because the reason why this whole thing started in the first place, because none other than Kyle Kuzma, source said a man in the crowd was heckling Bucks player Kyle Kuzma to which McHenry, they're saying terrible things and blah, blah, blah. So then she urged the heckler to ease up. And that led to everybody to get into this whatever the fuck and toss a drink out and everything. So this is all Kyle Cousman's fault. Which makes this much, much funnier. Because of course it's Kyle Cousman's fault. If there's any NBA player, of course it's Kyle Cousman doing this. Greg: I don't I don't think I would appreciate a MAGA supporter trying to defend me and say ease up. Like I really do feel like that would that would make my mood worse. I'd rather niggas continue to heckle me than a Trump supporter to be like, ease up on that man. He's one of the good ones. Whoa. Jax: Well, Kyle Kuzma is a very like, I don't know what, the worst bag. Greg: He's been in his political bag recently. Look. Jax: He needs to get out of that bag. He's terrible at it. He's an idiot. he might, like Kyle Kuzma might be happy she defended his honor. I'm just saying that about Kyle Kuzma. It's unfortunate, but true. Greg: Damn bro. I I I hate that I hate that. I hate that for actually I don't give a fuck, actually. It's a nigga not black. I could care less. Jax: All right, but let's get into some real hoops, some real basketball, not the NBA. We'll get to that later, but we got to talk about the WNBA finals, the Golden State Valkyries at the Atlanta Dream. Lord Jesus Christ, Angel Reese is going stupid. And I mean Greg: Absolutely. Jax: that complimentary. She's going insane. Like she's absolutely going insane. This is, I did not expect this from her. Like. coming out of college. didn't know she was gonna get this good, this fast and be like this impactful. she's deep, she's leading her team and scoring in the finals. Like team got to the finals in the first place. And this is her first year with LNRA, cause she was with Chicago. They just, trained her. So in her first year. Greg: Yeah, this is our first yeah, this is our first year. Yeah. So Yeah, so she was in Chicago for two years and then this is our first year with Atlanta, so third season. Jax: Okay. All right. So only her third season. So she's still young. It's probably 25 maybe something like that. But yeah, she Greg: Some like that. Jax: is different, bro. She is different. And now the, what you call it? The dream or not the dream, but the Valkyries they have, they won a game, you they won game one. So like they put up, they're putting up fights and everything, but it's just like, especially this last game. Greg: May you. Jax: I don't really, I don't know if they, I don't know if they got the horses to do it, bro. And Jorissa is just different. They're just going. The dream is playing astoundingly, bro. So I don't know if they got the words to do this. Greg: If we're being honest, Atlanta should have, they should have won game one. They should Jax: Fair? Fair. Greg: have won game one because I felt like Angel Reese was a little too passive in game one. Like, game one, like she got her shit like the first two quarters, but like she was like in a facilitating Jax: and so do I. Greg: bag in the fourth quarter and was trying to like, you know, let her shoot, you know, let her shooters cook and all that stuff. But it started becoming like. Easier for the Valkyries to play defense and they're they're still a good defensive team because they they was able to contain Asia to the best of their abilities and and and beat the fucking aces. So they know how to play some defense. But it once once Andrew Reese once they started playing through her, my god, 30, 30 and 16, 25 and 8, and knocking knocking down multiple threes. Jax you mute you muted. Jax: I realize it me. I didn't think that she would, her first two years with Chicago, everybody's making, the me Bounds and blah, blah, which side, the me Bounds was never, it was never a diss, but it doesn't either here nor there, Greg: It was never a different role. Jax: but she was, her shooting presence was bad. She was missing a whole lot of easy layups. I didn't think she'd be able to get her scoring to the level it is as quickly as she did. Cause now she's shooting three, I'm not saying she's like a. three point shooter for real, she, cause she gets that home and she got to take her and she's a slow jumpstart. Not going to lie to you, but Greg: Yeah. Jax: she be making that bitch. So I didn't think she'd be able to do that anytime soon. She's converting. Like I don't, I'm, I'm just impressed. I'm impressed. And she's, was going to mention that other girl, but I'm not even going to do that. But I'm Greg: Yeah. Jax: her surpassing that other person so fast is very, very interesting to say the least. I, I didn't think she'd do that either. Greg: I'll say I'll say this. when it comes to me being surprised about certain developments, it's not it's not coming to like a that big of a surprise. Like it is shocking that it's like thirty, like thirty dropping thirty Jax: Yes. Greg: or fifteen in the finals, no matter who you are. Nigga, okay. Jax: It will always be like, damn. Greg: Like, damn. But just even like the games that they would criticize Angel on. where she had the me bounds like her shooting percentage was horrible, she was still putting up eighteen and twelve. it was still a double double. And it's just yo, if if you just made the four layups that you if if you had missed eight or nine layups or whatever. And instead of you missing nine, you missed four. you already had twenty five, twenty seven, you already close to thirty if you just focus on, making sure that, you work on your finishing or whatever the case may be. Now that three point bag, great. You know what I mean? That Jax: I didn't know she was gonna get that. Greg: I I didn't I didn't think she was gonna test it in the finals. I knew she I knew she Jax: You Greg: was gonna get I knew she was gonna get there if she like, you know, if she had time, like, you know, if she's gonna be wide open. Cause you could tell off a nigga's free throws like how decent a, you know, a shooter is to a degree, like Jax: restroom. Greg: The the the shooting percentage, Jax: If the form is there. Greg: yeah. So her free throw per she's always been a good knockdown free throw shooter. She's never been like the typical big man that misses. But she just has to have enough time because you said, she has a slow jumper. So it's not like she finna off the dribble hezzy that bitch. But Jax: Now she do do that then it's not different conversation need to be had if you do listen like that Greg: A Hesi pull by this hey, a Hesi pull changes the fucking game. That's fucking nuts. But she's about to be fucking finals MVP. and as Jax: Yeah. Greg: far as and as far as that other girl, we don't have to talk about that other girl, because this is about Angel Reese. But what I will say to fans of that culture, of that fan base, I'm gonna let you know right now. If y'all don't calm it down Jax: Yep. Greg: and start holding your favorite player accountable, she's gonna fuck around and turn in to the female Justin Herbert. Because the conversations I be I be hearing about this woman, when we're talking about Angel Reese right now, I'm starting to hear even like, Certain media people start downplaying rosters, teammates, talking some, Angels on a good ass team. she, I'm saying, hold on now. She got some, she, she Jax: But what do you mean by holding her account? What do you mean by holding her account? Because I don't think she's doing nothing wrong. I think it's everybody around her is doing everything wrong. And they need to hold themselves accountable. Greg: No, I'm talking about I'm talking about her play. I'm talking about her her play. Jax: Okay then. Greg: I'm I'm talking about strictly holding her accountable of like, yo, in the sense of Kaylin Clark or I'm finna Jax: Hahaha! Greg: edit it out. That player can do nothing wrong on the basketball court. She can Jax: Okay. Greg: absolutely be a better basketball player than what she is. You know what I mean? Every time that person has a bad game, it's not Because they're being mean to her or they're bullying her or or her teammates are not do no. Especially if she's this generational talent that people claim that she is. All I'm saying is I'm seeing Angel Reese on every on every level win a championship. On every single level, she's won at the highest level. She won in high school. She got a national championship in college. She's about to win a WNBA title in her third season and win finals MVP. That other person has not done that. And in college, y'all used to say, well, look what look for the look at the team she's playing with. It's just her and other, like-minded individuals that look like her. Jax: Ha Greg: And she she went to Kim. Okay, whatever. Now we're in the WNBA, and you with the you with a couple number one overall picks and and and some and some women. That's not she's fucking Jax: with some root, Kelsey Mitchell is nice. Kelsey Mitchell is nice. Greg: nice. You know what I mean? Aaliyah Boston is nice. Jax: Nice is probably an understate. Kelsey Mitchell is really good. Nice is probably an understate. Greg: Nikelse Mitchell is the best player on that team as we currently stand. You know what Jax: Yeah. Yeah. Greg: I mean? So, yes, as a basketball person, if she don't, if y'all don't start saying, hey, holding her basketball league accountable, y'all gonna start turning that girl into if woman. If she had, if she Jax: It's crazy. Greg: had a good big woman, if she had a better big or a better wing, even though she's not the best player on her team right now. All right now. if we had a better coach, even though y'all just replaced our coach and got a new coach. You know what I mean? Jax: And they just fired their GM today. Greg: Exactly. Sounds very familiar with some Los Angeles niggas. They trying to get they try I I I'm just seeing a lot of parallels. I'm just saying, this let's let's just be careful. But this is about Angel Reese and this is the Angel Reese show about it. we've always been stands on we've always been fans of this woman, so we ain't got nothing to we ain't got nothing to. I saw Jason Woodlock out here talking. I was like, Man, they they got they got everybody out today. Crazy. Well. Jax: But also, Gabby Williams for the Valkyrie has been hooping. Hasn't resulted in many wins, but Greg: Another another former Chicago scar. Jax: she's been hooping. Chicago, you look funny now. You're looking very funny looking at you. But. Greg: Very, very, very Sacramento Kings like of you. Whoa. Jax: You see well, we'll talk we'll talk about the NBA in a little bit But let's go to the NFL real fast and me and Greg we did our picks last week. I picked the Patriots to win. They did not win But because they did not win It was a very Or not a pick like we do our picks for this this past game that happened 39 game because we're going on Friday I picked the page they did not win But since they lost, it was still a win for me because I got this video, which Greg has never seen. But I must share this with him. You can see my screen. All Greg: Yeah, I can. Jax: right. to see. It wasn't funny until it got to her. Greg: Mm-hmm. Jax: It wasn't funny until it got to her on the saxophone. was like, all right, bro, I need to shut this. Greg: They got that woman playing the saxophone is crazy. Jax: AI is terrible, stop using it, but this shit is funny as hell. Greg: Niggas are so mean, bro. This is crazy. Jax: Man. Greg: She played the shit out that saxophone though. My God. Jax: I'm surprised she, when you think she gonna come back outside to the real world? Greg: It's not safe for her right now. Jax: You think I'll ever be safe anytime soon? Because Greg: but Jax: it ends up getting safe for men because we're men. people hate women, so I don't know if it will be safe. Greg: I think the quicker, I think the quicker that she moves past it and continue to act like nothing, you know, every you know, everything's good and just continues to like do her job and whatever. The people, you know, the quicker people will like move on from it. But it's always gonna feel like this for as long as you stay out and hiding. Like nigga, Jax: here. Greg: niggas are like niggas are just like bees. when Jax: Yeah Greg: it when it comes to a swarm of bees trying to attack somebody that's that fuck with the nest, like I didn't it took me a long time to realize like you're not supposed to jump in the water when bees are chasing you. Like people be like, if I if I Jax: We'll go to the wait. Greg: jump in the if I just jump in the water and hide underwater, like they'll go away. No, bees will literally hover the pool until you get out of the water. And then they'll try to attack you. And I was like. Jax: So you gotta just go ahead and get stung a few times and just move on. Greg: She's gonna have to, yeah, she's gonna have to do get get put some repellent on, you the beekeepers have the little stuff. Get the get the stuff, Jax: whatever the, whatever it's called. Greg: because they're gonna try to attack you. And at some point, once they sting, bees die immediately after they get stinged. they Jax: Yeah? Greg: die after that. So take your little stings, get through it. Jax: Hope you're not allergic. If they do, get some whatever, get the EpiPen, but it'll be all right. Greg: Hope you're not allergic. Get some Benadryl, get some whatever the case may be, and then people will leave it alone. You're not the first person to ever have a scandal as a woman. People don't talk about Joy Taylor like that no more. Jax: but she's been excommunicated to Relationship Greg: Absolutely. Jax: Podcast. Greg: Absolutely. But that was her choice. Nobody told her to go through that. That was Jax: You ain't lying about that. You ain't lying about that. Greg: She was try she was trying to start that up even before the allegations even went there. You know what I mean? And Taylor Rook said, Jax: She was trying to do that with Taylor Rook. Taylor Rook said, you know what? I'm outta here. Greg: Know Jim. I don't know. I don't know about this one. Yeah, nah. Even even niggas are like, yeah, I'm horny, but not that horny. No thanks. I don't need that part. Especially when especially when you're gonna talk talk nonsense. You can't you can't move like you moving and then have Joy Taylor out here talking like like Lex P. That's not how that works. You can't be Jax: Ugh. Greg: talking like Lex P and Drea after doing some shit like that. No. Hell no. We didn't come there for that. Hell no. Jax: But I'm glad you made that point about, trying to move on, trying to ignore it, trying to act like nothing happened. Because that's exactly what the Philadelphia Eagles are doing with the Jaylen Hurts Greg: Ha ha ha ha. Jax: situation. We talked about Jaylen Hurts before, how he had the whole blood clot thing going on, and he has been ruled out for the season. The blood clot, it was superficial blood clot started in his calf. Cause I believe they say he got kicked in his calf or a cleat. He got cleated in his calf or whatever. And that's where the blood clot started. Greg: Yeah. Mm-hmm. Jax: Ended up moving up to his lungs. And since he's going to be on blood thinners now to sort of get rid of that whole situation. So he's going to be out for the season. Tanner McKee will be the starting quarterback for the Eagles. But this whole situation has been handled very poorly. I think I like a little timeline here just to illustrate how things happen. So the publicly known timeline was he was cleaning the calf versus the Rams in week four, but he didn't ask for treatment because he just thought it was fine. After the Eagles flew to London and ultrasound found that he did have a blood clot in his calf, but the doctor still cleared him to play even with the blood clot. The night before the game though, he spent time in the hospital and was told not to sleep because it was a risk. He did. this was a lot of like, there was a lot of talk about this point or whatever, but he did end up, getting some sleep, not much sleep, but people were saying, they had him up all night, but no, he, he was up all night, but he wasn't literally up all night. So he got, he got some shell eye in there eventually. But then he took the seven to eight hour flight from London back to Philly and started practicing that week. A follow up ultrasound, so the clot have moved further testing has now diagnosed him with deep vein thrombosis. which, led to him being out for the season. It sounds crazy to me, it sounds crazy to you. We've talked about it last week. It sounds crazy to everybody on the internet that this whole situation has happened. But the Eagles have said nothing really happened for real and we didn't do nothing wrong. And then Jalen Hurts, his agent came out and said, you know, the Eagles didn't do anything wrong. In the statement, she said over the last few days, Jaylen's received comprehensive medical evaluations by experts in the interest of transparency, providing additional information. He was initially diagnosed in London. She's just going through the timeline or whatever. She said that Jaylen's prognosis is good and we expect a full recovery. In the meantime, he'll remain around the team. and we are thinking of Jalen looking forward to his recovery. We're anticipating that we know long-term effects. So like she's saying like, man, the Eagles didn't really do nothing wrong. Jalen, he hasn't came out said anything, contradicting what the Eagles have been saying. They sent out Nick Sirianni for a press conference and all the reporters were like pressing him. And he was like, I don't know. We just, we just to our medical staff, which I can't blame him because like. As much as I don't think Nick Sirianni is a good coach, I don't think Nick Sirianni is a good coach, but I think he's an even worse doctor because he's not a fucking doctor. So of course he's not going to have the answers to that. So I don't even know why people were, you know, open arms about the way he answered these questions. But the NFLPA. Even despite, Jalen not saying they did anything wrong, despite the Eagles saying they didn't do nothing wrong, despite Jalen's agents saying they didn't do nothing wrong, the NFLPA, the Players Association decided, you know what, let's actually do our jobs. and say they put out a statement saying that they're not aware of any investigation into medical care or any NFL investigation into the medical care provided to Jayler Hertz. In fact, the league previously informed the union that it did not plan to review the care he received before conclusions are drawn about how the situation was handled. There must be a full investigation. Determining facts is essential to ensuring players receive the highest level of care and protection going forward. So the NFL, Greg: Absolutely. Jax: they want to. I don't know if they've launched the investigation, but they want to launch an investigation in this whole situation, which valid, but Greg: Yeah, and that was in the response of that was in the response of the NFL saying, Hey, we're not Jax: Yeah. Greg: we're not gonna punish the Eagles. We didn't Jax: the Eagles. Greg: find no wrongdoing. And they were like, Hold on, nigga, before you just say niggas not gonna get punished, you acting like y'all had an investigation. There w there was no investigation. If you're gonna say some shit, let's at least have an investigation before you just start coming out here and saying shit. That that that's how we start getting Ray Rice situations with videos drop. And now you look in looking crazy with your pants on Jax: crazy. Greg: go looking crazy. But continue. Jax: But that was really the last part I had to say about that. So it feels weird because I initially wanted to be like, not necessarily wanted to be, but I wanted to be upset because it was just like, it seems like this nigga, realistically, maybe it sounds like I'm exaggerating, but he actually could have fucking died on that plane with the blood clots because it moved up and it went to his lungs Greg: Absolutely. Jax: and the blood clots killed people. So he literally could have died. But. He not making a big deal out this. That's why I'm like, should I be mad? Cause he not mad at it. So I'm confused. Greg: Well first of all, we don't know we don't we don't know how that nigga feel for real, for real. Jax: No, I that's how I feel. his whole agent put out the statement saying like, hey, Greg: That's fine. Jax: everything's cool. So that's why I'm like his agent would have done that with Jalen Hurts didn't say do it or Jalen Hurts didn't give her the A. OK on it. So that's why I'm like, that's why I feel weird about the situation. I don't like should I? Yes, there should be an investigation, but I still don't even know. Like, regardless of the investigation, Jalen Hurts is like, hey, things ain't do nothing wrong. He's fine with it, bro. If he's fine with it, I don't think niggas should be mad for real. Greg: Just because that nigga's not mad at it doesn't mean some whole shit didn't go on. It's still it's still Jax: I for sure think some hoes shit happened. Greg: it's still it's still football, still the NFL. what that really tells me more is him like I mean, he's never been somebody that's like been on like some complaining tip or like been vocal about certain shit. That nigga is notorious of just giving you a fucking riddle. Give giving you a one liner. Jax: He'll just give you a riddle and ask you to figure it out and disappear into the mist. Greg: Yeah, he he he's always been notorious of of shit like that. So he's never gonna be somebody that, throws a throws his organization under the bus, especially making all that money. And in his mind, he probably is like he's probably somebody that kind of like takes onus on himself of like, I mean, even even with all the information I know, like I know how much football players can be when it comes to like them trying to tough it out and say, No, hell no, I I'm I'm finna I'm finna go hit this hoe. I'm finna go. Jax: That's a valid point. Greg: I'm I'ma just I'ma fight through it, I I I knew the consequences. I knew X, Y, and Z. I'ma still go through it. So I can see him not making too much of a big deal out of it because it it feels like for him, he may feel like it's a two way street of okay, I I Jax: Yeah. Greg: still committed to saying, hey, I got a blood clot. I still said, Hey, I'm trying to fly back. He still probably said whatever. But when it comes to the Nick Seriani thing, I agree with you to a certain degree of like, okay, like he's not no doctor, like he don't fucking know. And I also, for people to like, we're not all stupid. Like, everybody, like, everybody feels a certain type of way that this happened. So we can't all be delusional. So I think like it, I think a responsible thing to do with the Eagles is, hey, at least give us somebody head of medical or whatever to at least explain to us. Just Jax: Yeah, they sent the wrong person. They sent the wrong person. Greg: to explain to us, hey, this is what happened. We're not even trying to call for niggas jobs just yet, unless we hear some bullshit. But we're not all medical niggas. It just sounds fucking weird. Jax: Yeah, if the medical staff is on bullshit, then of course we're going to call for their job. Greg: Exactly. But at least give us a medical nigga that knows what they're talking about to to let us know. Hey, this is the timeline. This is how it happened. Because niggas are pressing people because they're trying to make shit make sense. Because we know if you go to a regular TSA and go to a regular plane and say, hey, I got blood clot, they're not putting you on that plane. They're not trying to be held liable. I didn't seen somebody get like just, hey, we're not letting you fly, nigga. You got blood you got blood clots. You on blood dinner, nigga. You can't be on here. Because if you die on a watch, you're not suing us. So I get that. But one thing I will say when it comes to Nick Serianni, there is a difference between a Nick Serianni and other head coaches like Mike Tomlin. Like, whenever I think about like people saying, like, you know, not too much on Nick Serianni. Sure, cool. But at the end of the day, Coaches do have the final say on whatever the case may be. And I always think about when Mike Tomlin had that conversation with Ryan Clark. And when Ryan Clark really wanted to play and he had that sickle cell situation going on. And technically doctors were like, hey, you know, he could play if you want to. Like, you know, like the doctors love to say shit like he can't make it any worse than what it already, you know, they love doing that bullshit. Yes, Jax: Yes he can! Greg: she can. Like, what the fuck? Like. Y'all just saying that because at the same time, he's these are team doctors and they're still gonna be in the best interest of the team. And Mike Tomlin said, No, you're not playing. And that nigga literally cried to coach, Mike Tomlin, yo, I I'm I wanna fucking play this this game so fucking bad. The nigga Mike Tomlin said, Hey, if you're my son, this wouldn't even be conversation. We you wouldn't we wouldn't even be debating this right now if you were my son for real. No, you're not playing. So at the end of the day, when you're dealing with somebody that truly cares about your health. They will do the necessary things because if it sounds crazy to us, ain't no way it don't sound crazy to at least somebody in that facility. it y'all can't all say, my God, this don't sound crazy, this don't feel a little off. Jax: To shoot Nick Sirianni some bail though, I feel like he was probably up on it a little bit the same way Jalen was up on it in that got the, boom, he got cleated or whatever, but he ain't think it was a problem. Then boom, he went to the doctors and they were like, this is a blood clot, but it's superficial. I feel like when you hear the word superficial, know what I mean? surface level is not really deep. It's not really nothing for real. So I think they were like, it's superficial so he can still play. I think Nick Sirianni was like, okay, bet. Like that, I think he was, yeah, so Greg: No, no, for sure, for sure. Jax: I'm really. I don't think it's any, like I think even Mike Tomlin would be like, all right, cool, bet. Because the medical team say, hey, it's okay. Like he's not having, he's not feeling any effects from it or whatever. like he, granted he didn't play good in the London game, but respectfully, he hasn't really played good the entire season. So I don't think the blood clot had any type of effect on him or anything like that. So I'm not, like I said, I'm not mad at how Crony's handled this at all. This is really more on the medical staff and with- With the GMB? Well, probably not the GM. I'm not... It has to be on... I think it's on somebody a little bit higher up than Sirianni, but I just don't know who exactly that would be. maybe the GM? Greg: It it'll it'll still be it'll still be like front office and ownership, especially when it comes to how Jax: Yeah. Greg: this news is being presented. You know what I mean? Jax: Also, too. Greg: At at bare minimum, having the right people out there to let people know 'cause it it went drastically to a clot on the calf to now multiple clots in this nigga's lungs. Jax: Yes. Greg: And it just jumped so it in the in the midst of it forty it seemed like forty-eight to seventy two hours, this shit moved from the bottom of the leg to up here. on some upper body shit. It's like, okay, can somebody just explain how that happened? like did any of the could any of the traveling cause that? Could any of the flight coming back from London to the like could any of that like from the non viewer? that doesn't really know much about the medical aspect of it. Yeah, just having the proper people at the press conference. But I'm I'm I mean, I'm I'm sure that they're like trying to they were trying to like, you know, protect their, you know, protect their people and understand Jax: course. Greg: that Nick Seriani is used to being grilled and pressed like that. So like he can just take it on the chin and we can just keep it moving and keep it pushing. And if that's the case, sure. But and the art of transparency, like I'm not finna just sit here and just trust whatever the NFL like Tells me. Like and and Jax: Yeah, never trust what the NFL tells you because they're liars. We know this already. Greg: at the end of the day, like this is just another reason why people get second opinions that are away from the Jax: Yes. Greg: team. And I think that we've gotten a better job of normalizing it. But the importance of hey, there should not be a such thing as team doctors. it should be everything should be third party. You should not be getting paid from the team. when it comes to this stuff because you need to have the best interest of said player just in case no funny shit happens or you not to say not not to say that this happened but like we I I I said in my last week's thing like hey this is not like a Brian Dayball situation where they nigga in the tent like hey he good whoa bitch you can't do you can't do that nigga you can't do that fuck nigga stop stop doing that Jax: and he was like, get back out there. And he was like, yeah, I'm trying to. Greg: Right, goddamn nigga, hold on. Hell no. Jax: But moving on from that NFL story to another one, I don't even really have, I don't even necessarily have much to say about it, but it's just, we just need to present this information. Cause it's like, what the hell? Greg: Absolutely. Jax: Gilbert Arenas, NFL version basically, but Jordan Elliott, who was a defensive tackle for the Titans, he's no longer one for the Titans. But according to sources, they're out. During practice earlier in the week, him and offensive lineman, J.C. Latham, they got into it. No, I don't know what was said. I don't know if anybody has said what was said exactly, but they get into it. J.C. Latham has since come out and been like, yeah, we've always been cool. I don't, it's sort of a crazy step that happened. But anyway, continue the story. They get into it at practice. Elliot gets mad. He says, you know what? Fuck this. He leaves practice, goes to his car. gets a gun to come back to go shoot J.C. Latham. Thankfully, one of his teammates, I believe they said it was, was it Jonathan Franklin Myers? I believe it was him. He Greg: Think so. Jax: talked him down like, hey, let's not kill our friends. Let's not kill our teammates. Yeah, he talked him down. Eventually, because there were guns in the situation, he got released and. The entire situation was captured by security cameras. Send the video. Send the video. Greg: Everything is being recorded. Jax: We live in a surveillance state. Everything you do is recorded. This podcast is recorded. But nah, Greg: Absolutely. Jax: this shit is crazy. Glad nobody got shot, glad nobody got hurt. But let me pose this question to you. No disrespect to Jordan Elliott, but if this was, know, Jeffrey Simmons, do they still cut him? Now, Jeffrey Simmons is like the Greg: Fuck no. Jax: all pro D tackle for the Titans, by the way. But you said, I didn't hear what you said. Greg: fuck no. Jax: Yeah Greg: no. they are He might get a big ass fine. They're gonna suspend that nigga. they're gonna, they're gonna, they're gonna do it. They're gonna do. Jax: Would we even know about this? We wouldn't even know about this. Greg: We're gonna do well, also true. But it'll be similar to the actual Gilbert Arenas story where the lower nigga basically it was done for him. It was raps. And then, they suspended Gilbert Arenas for a lengthy amount of time. Now, injuries derailed this nigga. But he Jax: Yeah. Greg: was still on the team. That nigga Gilbert Renus was still on the team afterwards. Like, shit didn't change. but I did do, you know how I feel about this, Jax. you can't be no big nigga toting this gun. But I did do some research. I did do some research. JC Latham is from Mo City. He was definitely gonna use that gun. Jax: The butter? Greg: No, no, no. JC Latham not JC, no, Jordan Elliott, my bad. Jordan Jax: Okay. Greg: Elliott. Is from Mo City. he was he was in fact definitely gonna use that gun. Jax: if you pull out a gun, you gotta use it. I mean, Greg: You you were gonna Jax: well, you don't gotta, I'm not even, you don't gotta use it, but like, you pull out gun, you gotta use it, Greg: But then I was starting to be like, you know, maybe maybe this nigga had to been like bigger or taller than this nigga. I d I did some matchups. So Jordan Elliott, based off of the records, you know, D tackle, six foot four, three hundred and fifteen pounds. Solid guy, you know, Jax: Large human. Greg: large human being. JC Latham, six six. Three three Jax: I was like, he's big. I remember him from Alabama. Greg: six six, three forty-two. From Jackson, Mississippi. Now Jax: And also, on his Wikipedia page, Latham gave himself the nickname, The Trance King. Greg: Ooh Jax: you Greg: Okay, well, I still don't condone using that gun. I whenever there's a whenever a gun is being pulled out in that kind of situation, your life is not threatened. Your life is not threatened. Jax: Yes it is! Greg: No, I'm talking about the nigga that's pulling his gun out. Jax: Okay. Greg: Like when you pulled your gun out, most of the time in the streets or whatever, like, I'm thinking your your life is Jax: the other person could have a gun. nobody else had a gun in this situation. Cause we was in practice, nigga. I got a helmet. That's all I got. Greg: Yeah, you yeah. But in this facility, no, I'm saying, in this facility, you are the most dangerous nigga here. Jax: Hahaha! Greg: with the you're big and you have the gun. So when you pull this gun out, Jax: you Greg: I'm looking at Jordan, I'm just like, brother, your life was not in danger in any way, shape, or form. You were very Jax: You're so safe. You're so safe. Greg: safe. You have security. Niggas camera. The camera everything. You were Jax: But it probably, this wasn't a situation about whether or not he was scared for his life or it wasn't nothing like that. He just felt disrespected. Greg: This was you pulled your gun out. This was very, this was an ego thing, which is why Jax: course. Greg: I heavily disagree with how this nigga went about this. Because your life was not in danger. And you're also a big nigga. It's not one of those things where the big nigga is like JC Latham is out here like trying to trying to chase around what's that like a day? Deuce Vaughn. And it's like Jax: All right Greg: Alright, bro. I wouldn't condone it if Deuce was doing it. But shit, that would make a little bit more sense. Nigga try to kill me. Nigga like me would just outrun it. But be like, these are all these are all professional Jax: All right. Greg: athletes. You know what I mean? Everybody's an extreme professional athlete. Niggas can run. But you niggas not gonna die. But that that's that's crazy. That's that's insane. And I understand that. Rah what's that nigga's name? Salah was trying to vouch for his guys and Jax: Yeah, he came out and he was like, man, I got nothing bad to say about him. He just made a mistake. He's going through some stuff at home. But if any, he was like, if anybody wants to sign a run, he was like, we had to cut him because he violated rules. But he was like, if anybody wants to sign a run stopping DT, call me. Cause I will tell you everything you know about him. he spoke nothing but high praise of him. Same with JT or JC Latham. They, everybody's talked highly of Jordan Elliott. So. Greg: Yeah, that's cool. And I'm not calling you. I I promise you, I am not calling you. I can't. 'Cause it's ego. I can't die, bro. Jax: Honestly, where is that? What has Jordan Elliott done this season? He's a DT, doesn't got, he's, that's not crazy. Two tackles, nine assisted tackles. Fuck it. Jerry Jones putting that call, man. Greg: Is this I haven't said this in a while, but this this this shades this shades of Lawrence Taylor Ray. Or is this OJ? Is this is is this above us? Is is this like OJ? Now OJ actually he did it too. Jax: OJ actually did. OJ, OJ, OJ a knife man. So I wouldn't say shades of OJ. And I don't think it's shades of Lawrence Taylor because I don't believe he was on drugs. And also Lawrence Taylor, Lawrence Taylor, A, he would have either shot him or just ripped him apart with his bare hands because he had crack etch rings. So I'm not entirely too sure. Greg: This nigga this nigga's in a own c he's in a category of his own. Jax: Yeah. Greg: He's not getting that call from me. He can't. Jax: But let's move to basketball. Talk about some people who did put in a call on Luca Donchis and that's the owners of the Mavs. Because keep it to mean, we knew this was happening already. Like we knew as it was actually happening, we knew that it was happening. But the New York Times said that the Mavericks ownership were allegedly doing a media smear campaign against Luca to justify their trade. you this right now. What's the, what's the Mavericks on the, who the hell is the Mavericks? Is they got, it's the DuPonts or I'm wrong? Greg: It's the it's them them people. Jax: Listen, bro. That was Miriam Adelson and Patrick Dumont, not DuPont, but Dumont. I'm gonna Greg: Do my Jax: tell you this right now. We don't care. Samira campaign, whatever. We don't care. There's nothing you can do to justify this trade. You fucked up your friend. Y'all are lucky. Y'all escaped by the hair on your chinny chin chin to, you know, happen into a Cooper flag. And Cooper flag is very good. He's still young, but he's very good right now. But will he ever be as good as Luca? I don't fucking know. Will he ever get y'all to a finals? Granted, they lost that finals when Luca got in there, but still, will he get y'all to the finals? I don't fucking know. Like Luca Greg: We don't know. We don't know that shit. Jax: was on pace to be the greatest Maverick ever, if he went to championship, because Dirk would still have that championship over him. But if Luca stayed with him, he was going to surpass all of Dirk's everythings. That did not happen. Greg: Does Dirk have an MVP? Jax: You say what? Greg: Does Dirk have an MVP? Jax: I'm pretty, I believe so. Greg: I feel like he had a crazy two thousand seven series, season or something like that. I feel like Jax: Let me look, I'm pretty sure he has one. Greg: Okay. Jax: I could be, I could be very wrong. You're at 2007 MVP. What Greg: Okay. Okay. Jax: do you have? me see what he did in the MVP here. When he won his MVP, he was averaging. Is it what, 24.6? 26.6? I ain't Greg: Twenty six point six. Jax: mad at it. I ain't mad at it, Derek. I ain't mad at it. No, he was at, what was he? at 25, nine. What was he doing on defense? Not a damn thing. But, Greg: Yeah. Jax: that was Hooping. Shout out to Derrick. Derrick that nigga. But yeah, there's nothing y'all can do to justify this trade. I'm so sorry. I'm like, smear campaign or whatever. Fuck y'all. Like y'all are stupid for that. Greg: it's it's bad. there's nothing to justify it. I don't know why they keep trying to like tell us more. And like it was plain as day what the fuck was going on, bro. Like I've never seen a nigga just get slandered like right after dragging I won't I won't say drag 'cause that was a good team. But like Kari Kari was hooping though. Jax: No, he drugged him. That's it, because he was not there. Him and Kyrie drugged the team, for sure. Greg: Fair. Jax: But that team was not a good team. They made them look good. The only other good player on the team was Kyrie. Greg: we c can we put some respect on Pussy Juice Washington Jr. a little bit? Can Jax: No, not even gonna call him that, no. Greg: we can can can we can we highlight Derek lively rookie season, Well Well the nigga don't be on the court for real. That's the problem. The nigga be injured. Jax: And ain't been nothing since then. Is Derrick Lally even playing? Exactly. Exactly, bro. Greg: Yeah, you right, you right, you're right. Yeah, it it it was bad. And this nigga they they fucked up they fucked up both Luca and and they own shit. You know what I mean? Like not only did you fuck up your own, you know, franchise, but you you put you put Luca you said Luca back a little bit, nigga. Jax: Y'all set yourselves back for no reason. And y'all beat Luca out his money for real, because he wasn't able to get the max max that he would have got had he stayed there. Greg: No, it did. Jax: So yeah, man, fuck y'all bro. Greg: Like I can't I can't well I was never gonna defend none of this shit, but like it it's still going down as not one of this is the worst trade. This this this is the this is the worst trade depending on how you feel about Steve Ballmer. That that's that's really like do do you want like a d Jax: Yeah Greg: do you want like a delayed dissatisfaction? a a a 10 year a decade's worth of of bullshit happening or do you want just one everything in one happening and on on a random saturday night at eleven p.m like Jax: That's what was still crazy. Greg: he do you want something that's like just so horrific that that niggas just assume that reporters is getting hacked you know I mean that's that's your trade is not good if a nigga just swears you getting hacked right now. Jax: Yeah, I will never forget. I Greg: Okay. Jax: was out and about and I seen that and I was like, who texted? Somebody texted and I was like, no, he didn't get traded. Y'all are stupid. I put my phone down come like, duh, he not gonna get traded. It's Luca. And then I got, I didn't hear it cause it was loud, but I felt my phone vibrate. I looked down. It's real? Nigga. Greg: That nigga, this nigga Jackson sent me a voice note. He was like, I'm brought in a club right now and I don't have nobody to talk about this with. I can't talk Jax: You Greg: to nobody about this shit. Jax: I'm not even a mad, I was just flabbergasted as fuck, cause what the fuck? Greg: Nigga was just appalled, bro. That shit, that is our nine eleven, bro. That that is for sure. bro, this shit was Jax: All right. Let's talk about Jason Tatum's 9-11. Because apparently this trade was the Jalen Brown trade that sent him to Philly. It took him by surprise. This is what he had to say. I like how he tried to start speaking positively at the end. But Jalen Brown, he saw this video on Instagram and he commented under it, cat, the blue hat emoji calling Jason Tatum a liar. And Jason Tatum, I'm familiar with this method. I know what he's doing. Cause let me, let's go back and listen to what he says. He said he was just as much caught off guard as the rest of the world. He didn't say he was caught off guard by the trade. He was just caught off guard by the destination. He's trying to, he's trying to like, cause the way, the way people might hear it be like, he's saying, he never knew the trade was going to happen. No. And he might be able to like default saying like, he, I knew, I didn't know the trade was going to happen, but like, no, I listen, I can hear what you're trying to say. You said that, the destination surprised you. but not the actual trade. Because you knew this whole thing was going down. You just didn't want him to go to Philly because you didn't want to have to see him all the time. But that's not, that's not... Greg: You see that nigga Yeah. That's not slick at all, bro. and niggas out here trying to make it seem like Jalen Brown is like doing the most out of this situation or whatever the case may be. Now, you know, commenting and stuff like that. Look, I I this we not in 2012 no more, nigga. We we got niggas nigg n niggas are vocal these days. Niggas are gonna be public about certain shit. Jax: And Jaylen Brown, he's Twitch streamer now, so of course he's gonna comment on everything, bro. He's less annoying, more than Greg: He's gonna comment on it. But niggas are starting to Jax: Humphrey. Greg: niggas wanna are starting to have this revisionist history about Jason Tatum as this untalkative ass nigga that just like, my god, like that nigga really just he didn't nigga just goes in hoops and goes home type shit. Nigga, we bullied him into that, bro. Like, I need niggas to understand. Jax: Hahaha Greg: He got bullied into that role. That nigga used to talk, and that nigga started talking and dropping them text messages about Kobe and shit. And nigga said, no, shut up and fucking dribble. And Jax: Everybody started calling him corny. Greg: what and once we got enough of that, that nigga finally listened and said, you know what, good. I'm not gonna talk. But let's not sit here and act like this nigga Jason Tatum don't know how to be a chatty nigga. That nigga knows how to be a chatty nigga if he wants to. That nigga has beautiful PR right now. Abo about certain situations. But nah, that that nigga Jax: He does have computers. Greg: is just as chatty as Jalen Brown. Them niggas really one of the same when it comes to chattiness. Just one is a little bit more pro-black. That's it. They're the same nigga. Jax: They're the same, they're the same nigga bro. Greg: and they grew up, they basically grew up. that nigga Jalen Brown got drafted in 2016, and that nigga got drafted in 2017. So they're a year apart. I probably so got Jax: They might actually be the same age probably. Greg: similar money. All this stuff. So when people start talking yeah, so I'm saying Jalen, Jax: Similar names same position. They're the same nigga. One is just light-skinned Greg: Jason, you know what I mean? So like that shit don't when when I when I hear people talk about like Jason Tatum and Jax: Jalen Brown 30. Hold on. When was that? He's turning 31 tomorrow. Greg: Damn. How old is Jason Ted? Twenty nine? Jax: 28. Greg: Okay, so a couple of years. Couple years older. okay, yeah, 'cause he gra he gradu Yeah, he ate Jax: When did Jay with Arnie the J the problem was 30 is this right? Greg: yeah, he gra he graduated in twenty fourteen, like in high school. So yeah, that would make sense. Thirty one. Jax: Now I realize it was finna be 31. Greg: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Jax: That makes us feel a little bit different. or not like, this situation, Greg: Not really. Jax: but that makes his career feel a little bit different. well, I can relate, was not old, but he old. Greg: Yeah, give or take. Yeah, Jason Tatum is Jas Jason Tatum is younger. I didn't know I didn't know it was a couple years younger. When did Jason Tatum turn twenty nine? Jax: Yeah, I don't either. He turns 29... March. Greg: shit. Okay, you got some time. Shit. Okay, bet. Yeah, what when it comes when it comes besides Jax: Yeah, yeah, but aside from us. Greg: from all of that, niggas be acting like this just seems like a a very much like work co worker relationship. Like they weren't like the best of like that's my dog type shit. To the point where Jax: But that was evident. You can see that on the court. Greg: Yeah. So when when people are sitting here acting like, my God, Jason Tatum, Jason Tatum didn't do X1. there was nothing Jason Tatum could do. What like nigga, l let's not act like if Jason Tatum wanted if Jason Tatum wanted that nigga to stay, he had enough power. He had enough power in the organization Jax: I'm Greg: to be like, hey, fuck that. Jalen Brown not going nowhere. And they would have made that shit work. They would have made they Jax: Yeah. Greg: would have made that shit where I don't care what the new ownership was, because what you don't want is to have two stars disgruntled to the point where like you move Jalen Jax: You Greg: Brown and then you lose Jason Tatum for fucking nothing. You know what I mean? Like it it it's it's very simple. I don't know why people are acting like Jason Tatum was helpless in this situation. It it's just a regular co-worker situation where it's like, okay, they and and and And management is not dumb either. They're not gonna make a trade or anything that's gonna just fuck up the vibe. they knew, hey, I don't think Jason Taylor give a fuck if we move this nigga. is the coworker like, damn, he not here no more. fuck. Like you said, he wasn't he was more concerned about damn. Jax: And he didn't give a fuck. He didn't give a- Greg: He was more concerned, damn nigga, like you Philly nigga? Right across the street, I gotta play play this nigga four times a year? That's what he was more concerned. He was hoping that they did like a kawai thing. We send you to the other conference. You know what I mean? Jax: Yeah? Greg: the only time I meet you in the postseason is if we meet in the finals type shit. Like it I I can face you four times. Jax: With Willem Insing and Mark- Greg: I can face you four times and then potentially see you in the first round, nigga? hell no. That's and this nigga Jalen Brown gonna guard me. He don't want to guard nobody else but me. Jax: You know Jaylen Burr is gonna take that. You know he's not gonna be normal about the situation, which honestly, he Greg: Hé on m'a Jax: shouldn't be normal about the situation, bro. I'm mad. Greg: Hell no, this nigga rap like Larry June. Of course that nigga feels some type of way. It's a different nigga. I'm just glad he don't do the little spray on thing no more. I'm glad he I'm glad he got rid of that. The little the little line, the little black hairspray line line tainted thing. Jax: He tapped in with LeBron. LeBron in the wall, secret. LeBron then dropped the top completely. Greg: Well LeBron bald now. Jax: Yeah, but LeBron still, he still got connects and stuff like that. Greg: For sure. Jax: But since we're talking about the NBA, let's go ahead, know, clap it up. NBA is back, praise God. Greg: Absolutely. Jax: And so let's talk about some of the stuff that we've seen so far. I wanna start it off talking about, I don't know what's going on. There we go. I wanna start off talking about the Oklahoma City Thunder. Cause first game, played the Spurs, belt, it was disgusting. They put belt straight to him. Second game against the Knicks, it was a little bit tougher. I mean, not Knicks, but the Nuggets, a little bit tougher. SGL only has 17 points, not 20. But I mean, it was still pretty much a belt situation. I think. This Oklahoma City Thunder roster, they, I feel like they seem better than they were last year, especially with the addition of the new rookie, Deymara, who I jokingly call him like the Wimby stopper in our messages, but no, that nigga, he seemed like the Wimby stopper for real. But this roster, seems, granted, they only, they, you know, just got a new draft pick, but that's really the only thing they did. That's really the only addition they had, but they just look and. seem so much better than they were last year. But maybe that's just because everybody's healthy right now. But I like what I'm seeing from OKC. Greg: Yeah, I I think the Spurs lit a fire under O K C and allowed everybody to get better. Jax: Yeah, because the Spurs last season, had OK season number. They would always whoop him in the regular season. But this year, they said, ain't no more of that. And Chet, listen, Chet, his numbers haven't been crazy good or whatever. I'll be like, Chet, are you a man or a mouse? He's not a mouse no more. He's a man. He seemed to be taking that matchup seriously. And I definitely appreciate it. Greg: he had no choice but to take it seriously, bro. you you you just can't you just can't continue to to be, getting bitched Jax: Yeah. Greg: by Wimby, bro. Like you already know Wimby gonna continue to be Wimby, but like at the end of the day, like nigga you're chet, nigga, you're you're just you're a number two overall pick, nigga. Jax: Although what does Wimby, what does Wimby continue to be Wimby mean? Because he had 12 points that first game, only made one field goal. I think it was what, one for 13? He has blocks because he's Wimby, of course, but yeah, no, that nigga was Cheeks first game. Greg: Yeah, I have a tweet from Antonio Brown from that game. This nigga said if Wimbayama was six five, he'd be looting stores in France. my God. Is he lying? Cause doing all that, Jax: HAAA- Greg: hey, doing all that and at six five, not gonna cut it. Performing like you performing like that and moving like you moving like that, but being six five, you're not gonna stay in the league one. Hell no, you're not. So unfortunately, A B that was a bar. But that being said, yeah, It I'm be honest with you and I'm trying my best not to be like no biased 'cause I know how niggas be like, this nigga from Hu like this a Houston nigga. Of course you don't like Wimby. I respect Wimby. But it don't feel like that nigga worked on anything for real. Jax: Grant, it has only been one game. We have to say that caveat. It has only been one game. Maybe they might play the second game by now, but season just started. We do have to say that. Season did just start. Greg: I understand the season just started, but even even even fake demons show you what's Jax: Ha Greg: in they bag in the first game or two. I hate bringing this nigga up. Jax: Like Ty Jerome, he dropped 45. I don't think he's a real demon, but he's a 45. What am I saying? Greg: I don't wanna I don't wanna have a f I don't wanna bring this nigga up because I don't want him to be a fake demon. But last season, yeah Sh Shin Gun showed showed you a bag against OK C in that opener last year of like, my God, this I could tell what you was working on in the offseason. And then ultimately, okay, we don't, Mitchell Robinson, another nigga. he he be in the bag off season. that nigga used to tween tween niggas. I'm like, whoa, hold on, Mitch. What the fuck? So it's just it like I said, I know it's only one game or whatever, but damn, at least you in at least you damn I can't see at least one little go to move or something. it just look like the same nigga that I saw in June. And that's not gonna cut it if Jax: Exactly Greg: you're gonna win a championship. Jax: Especially because somebody like Wimby he has all these ever always gonna be the greatest player ever that's a lot expectation to have in Nigga, you still ain't you look the same as last year. It's only been one game or season just started, but you look the same as last year name like what's up with that, bro? Greg: Nigga d nigga just took took a took a picture and then moved five steps back and took another picture. Nigga just Jax: Wait, how old is Wimby? Greg: He's twenty three or twenty Jax: We have to see. Greg: two. He's young as fuck. Jax: Okay, he's 22. Okay, he still got time. He still got time. Greg: No, he he he still he still got he still got time. He'll be he he'll be fine. But Jax: His birthday in January. got two ears. He got two ears. Greg: Damn. Yeah, for sure. I think who out was there any other 'cause I'm trying to get it off of Wimby 'cause Wimby like we'll we'll see w what Wimby will be, Jax: Yeah. Greg: you know, towards the rest of the season. I like the negativity of the NBA so far, a lot of niggas pushing and shoving. I appreciate that. Jax: Yeah, Tarius Halburn came with smoke for Derek Queen. Derek Queen seemed like a very nice person. He seemed Greg: A Jax: like the happy-go-lucky. But he also seemed like he could be a little annoying, though. Greg: Hey bro, the haliband, hey, the haliband is real, nigga. The the haliband you saw how quick them niggas went up? Jax: Yeah, mount it up. Well, they don't got, what's his name no more? So they gotta come together as a group now to fight people. Greg: Niggas said running back by community. Nah, dead ass. Jax: Yeah, and that's what the they did. Greg: Nah, dead ass. It's they they hey they they they the they the black van they the black vans on on on foot. That's real, that's real. did you see you saw that Yaxel Landenberg shit? How'd Jax: Yes. Greg: you feel about it? Jax: if y'all, the actual Landerberg, he's the rookie for the, warriors. Greg: Why? Jax: He's a new rookie, first round pick. they played their first game. They played against the Lakers. I almost hit the maps, but they played against the Lakers. Lakers won because the warriors suck, but Yaxler after the game, he was like, man, I was talking trash to Luca because all he do is just cry and whine every single, I'm paraphrasing course, but the sentiments are the same. He said, all Luca do is cry and whine. And I lost a whole lot of respect for him. Like I. I see him on the highlights and he's good, but in real life, he just cries. I don't like him. And like, I'm not mad at him saying that. It's very Dylan Brooks coated. Only thing though, I just be like. Don't poke the bear. also I do hope, granted, I don't think he'll ever be as good as Luca, not saying that in like a disrespectful way, just Luca is one of the all timers. But like, I hope you're at least good. Cause like Dillon Brooks, talked a lot of shit, but he ended up being good. So I do hope you end up being good, Yaxel Landenberg. So you can at least justify a lot of the takes you say. And so we can hear more from you. Cause that was sort of funny. So if you're good, we want to hear more from you. If you're bad, you just end up like Kyle Kuzma and nobody wants to hear you say anything. Greg: This is gonna sound crazy when I say it, but this by I literally do mean this by no disrespect. Yaxel Linderborg sound he he sounds just like He sounds just like MP to me. it just feels like he just reminds me of MP from 2K. Jax: I was like, are you talking about the 2K? Greg: Yeah, from two k I'm talking about two kid just the way he go about the league and how he played basketball and anything that he said, it just look like I have a control I don't even have my fucking PS5 controller, Jax: Yeah. Greg: but I feel like I could just press to the like an X or a square or or or a triangle or whatever. And every time that nigga talks, I just feel like in the left corner, fifty thousand fans. Pl minus one thousand teams. you know what I mean? I'm to minus ten percent team chemistry or whatever the case may be. Like it just doesn't feel. Jax: What do you think? With those comments, that make his team chemistry? I think those comments would help his team. I think his fans and his team chemistry would have went up. Greg: No, I think it I think it did go up. But I'm just saying, it just feels this nigga feels like a video game when I like look at this nigga and see how this nigga talk 'cause he doesn't he doesn't have like a his game doesn't r doesn't reflect anybody that I'm thinking about off the top of my head. He just s Yaxel just plays like Yaxel to me. Like I don't I don't see where his influence comes from. And granted I haven't watched him enough. Jax: I feel he's like a real deal like Jack of all trades. So he does sort of everything. So that's why he can't really nail it down because he'll do all the shit you sort of need. Greg: Yeah. So he j j just like MP, it is your player. You can make him however you want to make that nigga, bro. Like Jax: Hahaha Greg: literally, you can't like you somebody say, describe MP. Hey, whatever you want to make this thing, you can be anything, you can be a Dibby God. but the second thing I wanna say about Yaxel, I just can't help myself but say that like I fuck with the energy. I don't have a problem with it. I just feel like God Jax: Yeah. Greg: I just feel like God is giving Draymond a second chance. I think God is giving Draymond a second chance to do this one right. All right. You saw which we did with Jordan Poole. Apparently Jax: I don't think Yaxo's not going, bro. granted, I don't know if Jordan Poole was, he got sucker punched. Like Jordan Poole, he might not Greg: I would think Jordan Poole was just un like like Jax: have been going, but Jordan Poole just got sucker punched. what can you do? no, when I woke up, I was trying to kill Draymond. So there's that. But Jordan, I already got the gun. I already got the gun from the car. I'm sorry. Greg: You know what I'm saying? A nigga swung his body. Jordan Elliott nigga. Hell no. Jax: Yes, I would have to do it. Jordan Poole, Jordan Elliott, that's what they call it. I would have to do it. Greg: Yeah, so like apparently this the Yaksel, that's Draymond is his vet. So it's like one of those things where that's where I was just like Jax: Soon they get everybody his everybody his vet bro, everyone in the world is 36 years old except for Greg: So when I Jax: the excellent pods Greg: when I heard when I heard that and then I heard Draymond say, Hey, I don't have no problem. I just, once you start talking, you gotta keep talking. you you can't shut up once you, once you met your match, you gotta keep Jax: That's true. Greg: talking. that's when that's when you get the respect in the league, whatever the case may be. So I think Draymond is learning from his passion. I hope he is. I would hope he's learning. Jax: you Greg: But that's what I took from it. I was like, okay. He gonna sucker punch nobody. And on top of that, Yaksel's bigger. That's a bigger nigga. Jax: I guess I'm probably bigger than Draymond. Because Draymond not particularly tall. Draymond 6'5". Greg: Absolutely. Yeah. I'm saying Jordan Pulligard. So yeah, makes sense. Jax: one last thing about basketball, I like how the Sixers looked. Seeing LeBron, his averages are gonna look terrible this season, after like 15 points and shit like that, it's gonna make his all-time numbers go down. But he's still a GOAT, so whatever. Greg: Man, the Sixers look good, so I'm not I'm not tripping too much. I'm not tripping too hard about it. Jax: Yeah, but it's also very early in the season and we know how this team when niggas will be getting hurt, bro. So, know Joel and B, he looks skinny, bro. He looks skinny and he was moving Greg: Nah. Jax: relatively well. So, I truly do hope he stays healthy. I do, because I'm tired of seeing him get hurt, bro. Because he'd be having the worst injuries Greg: No. Jax: ever. Greg: All right, bet, but the moment we've all been waiting for NFL Hicks. Where the fuck is the damn there we NFL picks it the picks are in. The picks are in going into week eight. Jax is out of resounding eleven and twenty one. Jax: Lord Jesus, don't even gotta say it. That's horrible. Greg: and we are Tim Greg is 20 and 12. And it just kept getting worse because this nigga picked the Patriots. We gotta update that too. But Sunday Jax: Hmm Greg: night, Kansas City Chiefs versus Jax: Thanks. Greg: the Seattle Seahawks, Jacks, who do you have? Jax: Give me the Chiefs, cuz they're 5-0. The Chiefs seem like the best team in the NFL. They just don't have receivers. But when you have the greatest quarterback ever and Kenneth Walker, is just amazing out of nowhere, they can get over that. So I'm gonna take the Chiefs. Greg: I'm gonna take the Chiefs as well. It just seems like Sam Darnold just having a a slow start I can't even say a slow start, nigga. We damn near halfway through the fucking season. Jax: Sam Donald just, he's just playing like Sam Donald. He wasn't that good last, he just got high in the playoffs. He's just playing like Sam Donald now, that's what happens. Greg: Yeah, for sure. So I'll I'll I'll give it I'll give it to the I'll give it to the Chiefs. Monday night, Cowboys versus Eagles, Dak Prescott versus Tanner McKee. Jacks, who do you have? Jax: don't fucking know. The Cowboys should win this game, but they fucking suck. So I don't know who to choose. Whatever. Dak is my fantasy football quarterback, so I'm going to go with the Cowboys. But if they lose, I will feel nothing, because I expected at this point, honestly. Greg: although I do need a Devontae Smith T D at some point, I will be picking the Cowboys. Jax: He's gonna get one, don't worry. He'll get one. Greg: I hope so. shout out to the waiver wire, Damian Pierce for filling in the gap. Smooth a little fifteen points from my last week's victory. But yeah, Jax, what if I didn't say it already, I have the Cowboys. But Jax, what is your lock of the week? Jax: My lock of the week. Give me the Texans Greg: Somebody's gonna Jax: over the Giants. Texans, Greg: okay. Jax: they're still getting back to the form and I feel like they're gonna put belt to Giants because Giants are gonna start J.J. McCarthy. Yeah, he did eye at the end of last game, but it's still J.J. McCarthy. Greg: That's fair. I can't I can't really I can't really fault you for that. Man, who the fuck am I finna pick? I don't even know if Lamar is a lock to even be back. Jax: don't know, what is wrong? What they say was wrong? I thought he was sick, but Greg: It was like an ank it was an ankle thing. Jax: I didn't know. Okay, it was actually, I thought he just got, cause you know, he always be getting Greg: Nah nah Jax: sick. Greg: nah it was an ankle thing, nah. actually This is my first time picking them, but I need a lock. Let's go Vikings over the Colts. Let's not let me down Lil, don't let me down. All right. I I tried to stay away. You're still undefeated. Don't piss me off. and Jax, what is your what's your upset? Jax: I not even know, I'm not gonna lie to you. give me the Packers over the Lions, because apparently your Packers are underdogs. Greg: Interesting. yeah, they're playing in Detroit, so Jax: Yeah, I don't know why they ended off. Greg: that makes sense to a degree. Mm Damn. well, I don't I don't know who the You know what? No, I can't do that either. Could I? Damn. Honestly, this will be my first and only time. And I do mean only time. give me Titans over the Browns. This I just I don't have a real reason. I there's just no other team that I feel confident in. I'm not picking the Dolphins over the Jets. I can't I there's just there's not there's not a lot of upsets that I just feel confident in. So Cam Ward. I'm not expecting you to do like I'm not expecting you to win for real, for real, but at least play a good game. Jax: they got their first win last week, bro. hey. And the Brown, Greg: Anything is possible. Jax: they're still, they keep winning, but Deshaun Watson is still playing horribly. They just keep winning. So it could happen. Greg: That is true. Them niggas they they lead their division. My God. They need that L. But that's it for the for the picks of the week and finally the moment we've all been waiting for. Jax, what is your hot take of the week? Jax: If you are over the age of 40, I don't think you should be saying the word bro. Greg: Forgot about Jax: I don't know, it just feels weird. Granted, like, we're obviously not 40. Maybe when I turn 40, I'll feel differently about it. But like, it just feels weird hearing somebody that age and older say it. Like, I've heard my dad say it. I'm like, you know, that's not your word. Like, that's not in your lexicon. Like, stop saying it. I don't know, this is very weird. Don't say bro. If you're over the age of 40, don't say bro. I do believe 40 is the correct cutoff as well. Greg: Do you feel like it will just naturally fall out of your vernacular language when you turn forty? when you when you specifically Jax: I don't know, that's what, that's what. Greg: turn forty, I'm not talking about other niggas, I'm talking about you specifically. You feel like you just it's just you you blow out the candle for your fortieth and all of a sudden Jax: Man, that's I was thinking about. I was thinking about that shit earlier. was like, am I just gonna stop saying, bro? Greg: You gonna slip up? Jax: You, I think you can say, you can say bruh, if you're like, once I'm like, bruh, if you're like exasperated or something like a nigga being stupid, I'll allow bruh. Wait, will I allow bruh? I think I can Greg: Do you do you just do you just graduate to Jax: allow. Greg: do you just graduate to brother? Jax: I'm not calling niggas brother, you niggas aren't my brother. don't call niggas brother, niggas not my brother. I have a brother, not you niggas. Greg: Brother or brother? Brother with a A? Jax: I'm not, I'm not like, well, I am a brother, but I'm not, I don't say brother. I'm Greg: Ha ha. Jax: not, that's not really, that's not my bag. I don't really like saying that like that. Unless I'm talking to like an old guy in Greg: I'll say this. I think it I think it's Jax: passing out, mate. Greg: I think it is weird to call niggas younger than you, bro, once you hit forty. I will say that. Saying Jax: major. Greg: telling a twenty five year old nigga, hey, hey, bro, is it does feel weird when you're telling but amongst your amongst your age group, I don't know how weird it's gonna be. I don't think it's gonna be that weird. But that being said, I just I just default to nigga when it comes to my age group. So Bro was never gonna be in my conversation. Jax: But Greg: I used bro when I couldn't use nigga. I couldn't use nigga around some Jax: Nah, I you be saying, you be saying, you be saying, Greg: Yeah, but I say I'm more conscious of saying bro when I'm at the workplace or other spots where I'm like, Jax: Fair, fair, fair. Greg: okay, obviously I can't call this manga. Can't whoa, whoa, bro. But yeah. Jax: Honestly, I think when I get to 40, I think I'll just be like, man. Cause man is, old people be saying man. Greg: You then you aging yourself out. It'll be interesting. Do I know any fifty year old nigga saying, bro? Jax: You sinned. I hope you don't. Greg: I don't I don't think I do. But I don't know what fifty year old niggas say. Are they saying, man? what are the old niggas saying? I don't know what the old niggas are saying right now. Jax: Let me hear how an nigga like that for real? Greg: What else does your father say besides bro? Does he have any other is bro his only thing? Does he not say anything else? Jax: Not really. Greg: Wow. Jax: I mean, he don't don't say it. He don't say it often. He don't say, bro, often. I just remember he said it and it just stuck in my head. Bothered me that he said it. Like, I thought about that for a very long time. Greg: Well, that just seems like a lack of versatility on his end. I feel like it wouldn't feel cringy if he had other things in the arsenal. Jax: I don't know what another thing could be. mean, man, but man is I don't know. But yeah, over the age of 40, don't say, don't say bro, please stop. Greg: That's funny as fuck. short, sweet, to the cent to the point. Please, and I do mean please, you do not have to clarify your team allegiance before saying some of the most agreeable takes on the fucking internet. Nobody cares. What I mean by that example, as a as a Cowboys fan, I feel really bad for Jalen Hurts. I'm praying for him. Who the fuck cares that you're a Cowboys fan, my nigga? There was no reason for you to say as as a as a Republican, as a as a Cowboys fan, as a Jax: you should feel something by the way. You're person. You don't need to clarify yourself. Greg: who cares, nigga? Like, do you think your take is like more valid because you your your team is the ops? Like, who for like I don't understand why people say do that on the fucking internet. And it'd be like the most noticeable nigga in the world. What I mean by that is it'll be a nigga with the Justin Herbert PFP talking about as a Chargers fan. Bitch, I know you a Chargers fan. I look at your profile pick, nigga. And you only do this on the internet because niggas in real life know who you actually root for. So you don't say you there's nobody in our group chat talking about as a Texans fan. No, because we know everybody. We know everybody and their allegiance to what their team is. Like Jordan don't have to like as a Broncos fan. No. The only nigga that has any wiggle room right now in the group chat is fucking Ash, because he's like this weird Texans cowboys, mixed breed ass nigga right now. And it's just like sometimes I be forgetting. Jax: Jordan Jordan Jordan he needs what you call it too cuz he be saying he a Cowboys fan and a Broncos fan I'm like you've never he became a Broncos fan when he got married and I'm like I guess but also no, that's not how that works Greg: That's diff that's different though. That's different. That's not how that works, but that's more Jax: He acted, no specifically, he became a Bo Nix fan. That's really what bothers me. That's really the part that bothers me. Greg: See, it's really just the bow Nicks. It's not even about the Broncos for you. So that's like that's different. That's different Jax: Cause I ain't got no problem with the Broncos. Just don't tell me Bonix is good if I can see him with my own two eyes. Don't lie to me. Don't look at my face and lie to Greg: Nigga said, Don't lie to Yeah, they said nigga, don't lie to me. Jax: me, bro. Greg: I think that's extremely different than Ash Jax: You Greg: being just an every Texan an every Texas team. Like that drives me fucking bonkers, like a Jax: I also liked the Texans, but I wouldn't call myself a Texans fan, but he became a Texans fan out of nowhere. He never talked about Texans before. And he said, yeah, I'm a fan. No, you're not, nigga. Don't lie to me. Don't look me in my face and lie to me, bro. Greg: that's not like bitch, I saw you on tw bitch, I saw you in on Twitter, nigga. in 2018, 2017, before I really knew you for real, nigga, you've been a Cowboys fan. This this Texas shit been it's some new shit right now. Fuck out of here. that's all that we have. Jax, any last words? Jax: go outside, go touch some grass. Especially now, you can touch some grass because it's not too cold just yet, but it's gonna be cold soon. But yeah, go outside, go touch some grass, go live your life, man. Greg: Go live your life, man. Bundle up. all the sports are back. October is like the perfect month. Literally every sport in the fucking world is happening at the same time. it's like the rare like two weeks where NHL, NBA, WNBA, MLB, football, everything, college football, every sport that that you care about, it's happening right now. literally. be happy. Pick a sport, spin a wheel, flip a coin. enjoy life. And we will catch you niggas next week. And that nigga cat and
