man. Yeah, me too. I feel real good, man. It almost went, man. How you doing this morning? Yeah, I'm doing great, man. Yeah, me too.
I feel real good, man.
It almost went the way I thought it was going to go.
Talking about, yeah, that was crazy.
Pause.
I ain't saying nothing.
It's early in the morning.
We're making this always early in the morning
for us every day
no further comment
I'll use that
okay alright well let's just get started I don't use that okay
alright well let's just get started
so Pacers lost
to the Celtics in overtime
133-128
in game one
crazy ending but what did you guys think
about the outcome of the game
man this was a really, really good game.
When I think about it,
and very seldom does everybody shows up.
This was one of those games
everybody was playing really good.
You got Holiday with 28 points.
That was really surprising.
I was expecting him to show up, and he definitely did.
Paul's show up.
Miles Turner had 23.
Pascal Siakam had 24.
This was just a really great game.
Even when you think of Tatum, Tatum showed up the way I wanted Paul's.
I wanted him to show up.
Even when we were doing the underdog fantasy,
shout out the underdog fantasy, when we were making the picks,
I remember that question you asked.
Do you see Tatum having 46 points?
And that was including points and rebounds and some other things, and it just looked like he got close to that,
and that was really good to see.
But when you think of Halliburton, Halliburton was going crazy.
That's who I really was expecting to play this good,
and I really would have liked to see Indiana win the game
when it's all said and done.
I think they were right there.
This was a game that if they lose this series,
looking back, they'll say we were supposed to get that game.
This was the game they were supposed to get.
Yeah, back to your point with Underdog,
I also picked the under.
So I was wrong with, I believe it was 46 totals, points, rebounds, and assists.
And he had 12 rebounds.
Tatum, we're talking about 36 points and four assists.
So it definitely was an over.
I definitely messed up with cold cam, but it was overtime.
That's what happened.
He had eight points in overtime as well.
This loss is solely
on Rick Carlisle.
100%.
Like,
y'all niggas had the game.
This is not,
I'm not blaming the players
on Indiana,
their young team.
This is solely on the coach
because
if I were Indiana Pacers fan
and I'm watching this game,
I'm losing my motherfucking mind.
I'm losing my mind
watching the end of this game.
And it seems
like y'all
are not ready. When I say y'all, the Indiana
Pacers and Rick Carlisle and his staff
for situational basketball.
Y'all don't, you didn't have your team
prepared for situational
basketball. You have the ball
up three points
with about 21, 22 seconds left to go. You turn
the ball over. Give it back to Boston with 22 seconds left. Derek White makes a move to the
basket. He misses. Jason Tatum gets the offensive rebound. He misses. You get the rebound. Pass it
to Halliburton. Turner gets the rebound. Pass to Halliburton. It the rebound pass to Halliburton gets fouled
it's 10 seconds left
you're up 3 points
with 10 seconds left
in the game
they wasn't in the bonus yet
so they do a sideline
takeout
instead of him calling
timeout
I know it's only 10 seconds
left and you're at
one timeout
you should have called
timeout to advance
the ball to half court
and that way
you could get a better
inbound and
play or hopefully get fouled and make your foul shots in the game over. Instead, what do they do?
They don't have any sideline play to get the ball inbound. Halliburton can't get free.
Siakam can't get free. They pass it to Siakam and ends up going off his fingertips.
So now not only do you lose the possession,
you're giving them the ball right underneath their basket
when you could have advanced the ball
if you called timeout.
So let's put this into perspective.
You're up three points with 22 seconds left.
Boston messes this up, misses.
You get a rebound.
You're up three points with 10 seconds left,
still in your backcourt.
You don't call a timeout.
And then Boston ends up turning it over again.
I mean, pardon me, Indiana turns it over again. And Jalen Brown hit an amazing shot with
about four or five seconds left in the game. They tie the game up. And now you have the ball.
You finally do use your timeout. Advance the ball with the game tied. You're having trouble again
inbounding the ball. I don't know why you guys have no play
whatsoever to inbound the ball to get a man free. Halliburton gets free. He's being smothered on
defense. So not only did you turn the ball over twice and left in 20 seconds, you get the ball
back with the game tied with five seconds left, and you can't even get a decent shot off. What
was the timeout for with five seconds left if you could not draw up a you can't even get a decent shot off. What was the timeout for with five seconds left
if you could not draw up a play
to at least get a decent shot?
I would be losing my motherfucking mind
if I'm an Indiana Pacers fan.
They gave that game away.
They had that game sealed.
And if they come back later on down the series,
you know, I didn't pick them to win the series.
I did pick Indiana to win last night, though.
But this is a game that's going to haunt them
later on in the series.
Not only that, you got 22 turnovers
that lead to 32 points.
I'm talking about Indiana turnovers
leading to Boston Celtics points.
That's not going to get it done.
It's not.
So this is solely on the coaching
of Rick Carlisle and his staff
for not putting the team in the right position pause
to win that game yesterday.
Great analysis.
You don't think it was up to bat, man?
That put them in overtime?
I mean, shout out to him for tying the game,
but I mean, they did make little mistakes towards the end that cost
them. Cause even first, the first couple of minutes, they were up by 12 points and Indiana
had zero. So it was a loss on Indiana and their coach. Cause they definitely had it in their hands.
So to see the outcome, the way that it happened, it's just like, dang, but like Cam said, it'll
haunt them later. We'll see what happens for the next. But I got to ask y'all, right?
So right now there's a quote going viral from Jalen Brown in the postgame.
Lisa Salters asked him what the difference was in overtime.
Jalen Brown responded, JT finally woke up.
So after hearing that, would you consider him, you know,
holding Jason Tatum accountable or does that not sound like something that you should hear from your teammate?
I actually like that comment.
It's really good when you hold players accountable because behind the scenes, people like to be the guy.
But when it's required to be the guy, then he wants to use excuses.
So I really appreciate him being vocal about that.
I think it's important that he does so.
Yeah, I think the quote was good.
I don't think that he meant any harm.
It's just, man, I don't think he meant all season.
I don't think that he meant
throughout the playoffs.
I think he meant last night
in that particular game.
Because like I said previously,
nobody was even in
Boston's rearview mirror
the last 25, 26 games
of the regular season.
So I don't think this was
an overall shot at Jason Tatum
about throughout the season.
I just think he meant
that one particular game. And no, I don't have a problem an overall shot at Jason Tatum about throughout the season. I just think he meant that one particular game.
And no, I don't have a problem with that quote at all.
They hold Jason Tatum to a high standard on that team.
And just like the coaches and GMs do,
the players probably do as well.
So I'm not mad at the quote at all.
Then just to put it out there to see you guys as guests,
do you guys have a prediction
of who you guys think will win game two?
Because you guys were both right for game one.
What are we thinking for game two?
I was actually wrong.
I picked Indiana to win.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, first game.
I said Boston's going to win the series,
but I thought Indiana had momentum coming off the Knick game.
Boston hadn't played in probably seven, eight days.
I'm not saying that they're rusty or anything,
but that counts when you're not playing official games.
Practice and scrimmages is one thing.
Another, NBA game, playoff game is totally something different.
So I was absolutely wrong thinking Indiana was going to win.
I think Boston will win game two,
and then we'll see what happens when we go back to Indiana.
But they're carrying that momentum from this game into the next game.
And Indiana, they'll play good
because they know they had this game in their hands,
and it was just mental mistakes that let them slip up.
But point being is when you got a championship coach
and Rick Carlisle, not only a championship coach,
you can use a player as an extension,
pause off a championship coach with Siakam
because he's a championship player.
Y'all got to gather the troops up
because y'all been in these situations before
and make sure that the younger players
don't make the mistakes that they did.
Yeah, I think when they play the next game,
exactly what Killer said, they play very well.
I think Halliburton will actually have more.
Now that I've seen this game, he's going to definitely try to take it to another level.
And I expect the same kind of game.
I think it is going to come down to the very end, and it will be a very close game, but I'm expecting
Boston to get the next game.
And then the NBA All-Defensive team was
announced, which included Bam, Anthony
Davis, Rudy Gobert, Herb Jones, and
Wemby. That makes Wemby the first
rookie to be selected.
What do you guys think of
the awards that Wemby
is starting to rack up why did you have
to put bam first like that's how i read it off it's just it's just there at first that's just
how i read it off when i wrote the question that's how i read it off were you reading in
alphabetical order or something nah because 82nd but you second, but... AD is in the
all-defensive team?
That's crazy.
But I guess this has nothing to do with playoffs
like Cam been saying.
But I definitely wouldn't have had AD
in the all-defensive
team. I think Rudy
Gobert definitely deserved
to be the
player of the year when it comes to
defense. Wimby
definitely, Bam.
Herb Jones. What team Herb Jones
play for?
Pelicans.
I'm just making sure. Okay.
And I guess you could put
Anthony Davis there,
but when it comes down to all defensive,
he can't have people getting career games on him.
And that's really all I wanted to say.
When I thought about it,
I definitely thought Jalen Suggs should have been first team.
Because all this year we've been raving about his defense
and what it meant to Orlando.
How Orlando came into being
not a premier team
but a team that had a major
turnaround. And his defense
was the focal point of it. So
I definitely thought he should have been in that
first team. It's interesting to
see two players from
Boston on there,
especially two guards.
I think that's really good.
What do you think,
Killer?
The first team is
Sue Rudy,
Gobert,
Wimby.
Yeah,
Bam,
AD,
Herb Jones.
Herb Jones,
what position is he for us?
Forward.
Forward.
Yeah,
bowl, bowl, I get it.
I get it.
Yeah, for real.
As far as one be making it,
look, they're trying to project him to be the next great hope
or whatever you want to use marketing terms.
I'm not mad that he made it,
but some of these awards, wins got to count, bro.
You know, and I love the Spurs, Greg Popovich.
That's my team.
But let's be serious.
Wins got to count for something.
He ain't playing that much defense to where he's stopping to win.
I done seen Ant-Man do two game winning block shots this season.
But I want, the reason I asked what position he's in, Paul,
is because, like May said, Suggs, Ant-Man,
I'm not going to say all defensive team
because I didn't study a lot of players' defense
going into seeing who, besides team,
I was looking at more team defense,
who was first, second, third, fourth, fifth,
as opposed to
which players were dominating on the defensive end, but what I will say is that it's all forwards
and centers on first team, and that means that they're not giving it to the point guards or the
shooting guards or the small forwards, and they're probably doing a tremendous job as well. Now, you
have to have shot blockers or inside protection but you got to think about it
and I'm not saying, I don't have
an exact name, but when you got to chase
Kyrie Irving around all game,
when you got to chase Steph
Curry around all game,
when you got to deal with
Devin Booker
coming off picks, etc.
Those aren't easy
assignments.
Playing guards that won't stop moving.
24 hours, you know, 48 minutes in the game.
They continuously move, similar to when,
and I don't think anybody did it as good as him outside of Steph Curry and maybe, of course, Reggie Miller,
but Rip Hamilton.
Constantly moving when he played for the Pistons.
It's just annoying.
It wears you down,
and you have to be up for the challenge
for the whole game because they don't stop.
And I think that they need to give some more point guards
and wing players credit defensively.
I know Mace brought up somebody,
a couple people on the Celtics.
I didn't see the second team or third team,
but I'm going first team that everybody centers and forwards.
And it seems like they're not giving any credit
to any wingmen or point guards.
Yeah, and they gave it to all people who didn't win.
That's the, other than Rudy Goldbeer
out of the Western Conference.
Wembe didn't win.
Bam did not win.
Herb Jones, Anthony Davis, these are all teams that weren't that successful.
So I don't understand how their defense was so pertinent.
And especially, like you said, they went past Suggs.
Suggs should have definitely been on there.
Then they had Derek White.
Derek White is another player that plays for Boston, as well as Drew Holiday.
These are guys who should have been, I wouldn't say first team,
but they put the guards, it seemed like, on second team
to make sure that they had them because they knew that would be a complaint.
And then speaking of
Rudy Gobert, I feel like this is an interesting stat
so I wanted to get you guys' opinion on it.
So apparently among the 15 highest
paid players in the NBA, Rudy Gobert
is the only one still
in competition with number one being
Steph Curry, number 15 being
Anthony Davis. What do you guys think of
hearing that stat?
Say that again?
So among the 15 highest paid players in the NBA,
Rudy Gobert is the only one still in competition.
I mean, I don't really know what to say about that.
I think if you add Ant-Man to any of those players,
they'd be in the playoffs right now as well. Can you imagine Ant-Man to any of those players, they'd be in the playoffs right now as well.
Can you imagine Ant-Man was on Golden State?
They probably wouldn't lose a game.
But I don't know where he was really going with that.
What I'll say is that these owners and GMs ain't going to pay y'all niggas.
They paying you all this bread,
and y'all can't even get us to a conference finals
or a semi-conference finals.
And y'all getting all this bread.
For Rudy Gobert to be
in the top 15 players
and he's the only player
still playing
and these niggas
is getting all this bread.
I would have a real problem
with that if I'm on my own.
Because that means
the people are not getting paid
as much as y'all are more hungry.
That's how they're going to take it.
I'm not saying that's necessarily true or not, but they'd be like, the broke niggas is hungry.
They trying to get their max deal.
So at the end of the exact list of who it is.
But whoever's not playing, if you're not a mega superstar, this may haunt you when it's time to renegotiate.
LeBron James is always going to get the maximum dollar.
Steph Curry is always going to get the maximum dollar. Kevin Durant, so proven different, he's going to get the maximum dollar. Steph Curry is always going to get the maximum dollar.
Kevin Durant, so proven different, he's going to get the maximum dollar.
And these guys are elite from the other 12 or 11 players
that's trying to go back and get their bread.
So when it's time for you guys to go renegotiate,
it's going to come back to haunt you like the Pacers.
Y'all niggas going to be like, yo,
my nigga, you think I can...
I'm Supermax, right? Nah, man.
You ain't get us to the conference
final. You're not Supermax.
You got to be here to win four games.
Yeah, you bugging, my nigga. Nah.
You ain't even
max right now. We ain't going to throw something
to you like... Listen, ladies and gentlemen, you know ain't going to throw something to you.
Listen, ladies and gentlemen,
who's going to come back to be haunted this year behind the same shit?
Klay Thompson.
I don't know where he's going,
if he's going to stay with Golden State to another team,
but whatever team he goes to,
his play this season is going to cost him
whatever contract he has coming up.
He's probably going to miss out on $10, $15 million
if he goes to another team outside of Golden State.
And if you go to Golden State,
you're probably going to miss out on $20 to $25 million,
maybe $30 million over the course of whatever the contract is
because of your play.
When you're coming up for contract years,
this isn't the year to be fucking up.
And I don't know the other 15 players that we're talking about, 14,
but this will cost you, outside of LeBron James, Steph Curry, Kevin Durant,
it will cost you when it's time to do your new contract.
What you think he was doing off the court that made him play so bad?
Who's that?
Klay Thompson.
If this was really bad.
I don't know.
We don't hear a lot about Klay.
It isn't like he's caught up in scandals.
It isn't like you see him at the club.
It isn't like you hear,
yo, that nigga was wild and he got into a fight.
I really believe at one point,
when you're that good of a shooter, Mace,
and I've never been that good of a shooter as Klay Thompson,
probably top five ever in the NBA.
Somebody will come out the woodwork
and be like,
hey, what about Dale Lullis, nigga?
You know, what about Chris Jackson?
All right, cool.
I'm just saying he's up there.
My mood, yeah.
He's up there with the top shooters ever.
And even me as a player,
sometimes I've been in slumps
to where it becomes mental.
I can't make it.
I'm going to miss this foul shot.
Damn, I'm going to miss the 15.
I ain't got no problem going to the basket.
Pause.
But it becomes mental.
And I don't know if this was the situation for Klay Thompson,
but when you don't see the ball go in the basket
and then you sit there and look at these numbers,
it isn't like
you can just play free to where then you don't have to pay attention to numbers. Yo, Clay,
you shot 29% last night. Yo, Clay, you was 11 for 36. Yo, Clay, this is your season,
your career season low on three-point percentage ever. Sometimes it becomes mental,
and you're thinking about the ball not going in
as opposed to the ball going in pause
before you even release a shot.
Because we've seen sparks,
but we'll see a spark from Klay this year,
and then the very next game,
he'll stink it up and won't have any points whatsoever.
I'm very superstitious
and
I know it wouldn't work
when Chris Paul got there.
Black cat in the room, man.
You fucking Clay shot up.
You blaming Chris Paul
for a Clay shoot.
Yes.
Clay is the jinx.
Clay shot bad, right?
Yeah.
Draymond Green got suspended for all-time record of suspensions this year.
And they don't make the playoffs.
Wiggins don't come.
Yeah, Wiggins just don't show up when he don't.
And sometimes niggas just got to sage a nigga pause.
Go around a nigga with the sage.
Sage a nigga.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, that nigga right there, it's not going to work with him in the lineup. you know what I'm saying like
that nigga right there
it's not gonna work
with him in the lineup
and not only that
I really believe
Chris Paul should try
and get out of there
because
as much fun as
we play around
with Chris Paul
and sometimes
we're not playing
we're serious
it's just the way
me and Mace talk
I really don't want
to see him end his career
the way last season
went for him
I would prefer for him and I don't know if it will work out contractually,
you know, salary cap-wise, so on and so forth.
But I would love to see him.
Yeah, I would love to see him in San Antonio.
Wimby would listen to him.
Popovich got an extension of a point guard coach on the floor,
and you could teach him at the same time.
We know Chris Paul's a great passer.
We see what he did when he got to the Clippers
and he turned it into Lob City, so on and so forth.
But I really wouldn't want to see him go out the way I see him go out last season.
And even though San Antonio may not be a contender next year,
Chris Paul at least will look decent.
You know,
I know he wants to ring
and everything else
because he had a stellar career,
but sometimes it's just not
in the blueprint for everybody.
And then for reference
for the people watching,
because I'm sure people want to know
who's on the list
of the 15 highest players.
So one, Steph Curry,
then Kevin Durant,
Jokic, LeBron James,
Embiid, Bradley Beal,
Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, Giannis, Damian Lillard, Jimmy Butler, Clay Thompson, Rudy Gobert, Fred VanVleet, and then Anthony Davis.
Just when I read off that list, does anybody surprise you or you think the list is solid?
Those are the people I thought would make the money.
It's just amazing.
Like Killer said, none of them are still playing.
Yeah, only,
I named the people
that were safe with
Kevin Durant
and LeBron James
and Steph Curry.
And the other two people
that are safe
is the Joker and Giannis.
All y'all,
the rest of y'all,
y'all are not safe, man.
What about Joel Embiid?
Oh, I mean, yes.
Joel Embiid as well.
Absolutely.
100%.
Joel Embiid.
Those are the three players.
Absolutely.
This year is going to matter to,
this year is definitely going to matter
the same way for Klay.
I think for Bradley Bill.
He cannot afford to come back
and not perform this year.
Well, the thing about it
is this,
that we have to pay attention
to and monitoring
from the list
is people's age
and how many years
they have left
on their contract.
So I don't know
the exact age
of Bradley Bill
or how many years
left he has on his contract,
but let's say,
for instance, right?
Because he had a big-ass deal.
Let's say, for instance, he's 33. I'm not sure exactly how old he is, and he had four years left. But let's say for instance, right? Because he had a big ass deal for it. Let's say for instance,
he's 33.
I'm not sure exactly how old he is.
And he had four years left.
And they're like,
I'm good anyway, man.
You know,
I catch me one of them
one million dollar checks
after this deal is done
because I already got
the super max from the Wizards.
That deal got transferred
over to Phoenix.
So they're playing for a deal
that was worked out with the Wizards already.
And I know he had got the Supermax when he was with the Wizards.
So I don't know how old he is.
And I'm pretty sure status put him up.
Yeah, he's 30 and he has two seasons left.
30?
Yeah.
Oh, Bradley Bill only 30?
Yeah.
Oh, he got plenty of time.
Yeah, it's going to fuck him up.
Murder two years.
Two years.
He better get together next year.
Yeah, yeah. He got two years to fuck him up, murder two years. Two years, he better get together next year. Yeah, he got
two years to get it together, man.
Okay.
And then, Kaitlyn Clark is
to become the first athlete since Michael
Jordan to release a signature
basketball collection with Wilson.
The drop will include limited
edition basketballs and other items.
How do you guys feel about
Kaitlyn's release and then the clips that have been, you know,
circulating of her performance in the WNBA?
Mace first.
How do you feel?
How do you feel with Caitlyn getting that signature shoe?
I think it's great.
I mean, I think it's well, yeah, I think it's well-deserved.
Wilson is obviously one of the biggest basketball brands.
It's well-deserved.
She's done her footing.
As far as her performance in the WNBA,
I think she's still doing a phenomenal job.
She's scoring well,
but they are definitely beating her up on that court.
She has gotten injured, but got back up.
She's clearly frustrated in all her post-game interviews,
but I mean, they told her it wasn't going to be easy
and they're not making it easy for her.
I'm starting to pick up the hate. Like, for her. I'm starting to pick up the hate.
Like, honestly, I'm definitely starting to pick up the hate. It's like there's a call that went
around like, yo, when she come in, pick her pocket, do this, do that. It's like it's just weird,
you know, because when she makes money, the league looks better. I mean, and when she does better, she's like the New York Knicks to the WNBA.
When she plays well, the league does better.
The league is definitely going to benefit from her doing well.
And when I'm looking at this, I love the way the newer generation. They just always highlight whatever the
thing is that make them look
phenomenal. Why they had to put
in there that since Michael Jordan.
Like what?
What's the correlation between
her and Michael Jordan's stat?
Did you do that? No, that's the headlines
because she's the only
player to do
that, which is a big stat to have on your belt
when you just entered the league.
So she's the first person to get a multi deal with.
She's the first athlete to sign
a signature basketball collection
with Wilson since Michael Jordan.
No player has done that.
Okay.
I heard you.
I get it.
What Bo Ball say.
What did Bo Ball say?
I get it.
I get it.
Since Michael Jordan is, wow,
just signature basketball collection.
What is a signature basketball collection?
Like, balls with her, with her signature on it?
Yeah.
Man, there's other niggas that have basketballs, yo.
I'm not buying that right now.
Nobody else had a basketball.
The exact quote is she's the first athlete since Michael Jordan
to release a signature basketball collection with Wilson.
Oh, yeah.
See, that's the wordplay right there.
With Wilson.
Because I'm thinking about it.
There's a few people who had basketballs.
But I don't know if I want to play into this.
I'm not feeding into this today.
I don't have time for this.
You know, Kaylin Clark has been doing, bringing a lot of money to the league.
This is just another thing that we can add to the list.
Who knows?
Before it was all over, she may have an ice cream or something.
We don't know
That's what it's looking like
They're trying to make her something
Really, really special
Yeah, congrats
It's nothing new
We'll hear something more about her
Getting some more endorsements
She's paving the way
But I want to ask status That will it be a demand for investments, she's paving the way.
What I want to ask that is that will it be a demand for Shorty from the Aces next?
Because it's high demand.
Would that be next for a signature clothing deal?
Wilson basketball.
Is the demand out there for that?
Let me, what do you think?
Oh, it's not fair.
Asia Wilson didn't get the Wilson.
Ain't her last name Wilson?
Yeah, that would actually be fire.
See?
Yeah, why didn't they offer it to Asia Wilson?
She's the one with the last name.
I get it, and I hear y'all.
I still just think advocating for her to have a shoe was needed.
Well,
so I'm asking you,
what about the basketball?
Yeah, that's what's fine.
I'm satisfied because it's up from here.
I just hope that they get their a hundred thousand dollars from the city and
then they can just keep going.
I'm not going to advocate for basketball too.
I'm asking you if there's going to be a demand.
Is it going to be a demand?
That's it.
Is it a demand?
Are they going to protest this?
They should just keep it consistent.
And everything Caitlyn get, say that Asia should have it also.
What is this lady doing?
Can we please get a shot of this?
Oh, my goodness.
Is this the same ladies from yesterday?
No.
She said she wants to talk.
I'm scared.
Oh, keep it going.
Hey.
Y'all.
Keep it going.
Y'all. Keep it going. Keep it going. Oh, keep it going. Hey. Y'all. Keep it going.
Keep it going.
Oh, keep it going.
Keep it going.
Keep it going.
Oh, oh, oh.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
Keep it going.
Keep it going.
Keep it going.
Go around.
Go around.
Ring the bell.
She said that?
You're lying
I wish she would be
she said CNN
hit me up
she said can you let her in
y'all wanna let her in
nah these bitches be with
they boyfriends and shit
that's not her boyfriend
yo who does he look like
from TV
niggas look
that's somebody he like
cause niggas start
folding they arms like that
niggas that's somebody he like cause niggas start folding they arms like that niggas be mad
alright
yeah
right
once a nigga
start folding
they arms
they be tight
but as far as
Caleb
back to Caleb
it's gonna be
more stuff
that she gets
she's the great
white hope man
yeah Taco Bell everything she's gonna get
the more endorsements she get, and it's good for her because she turned down $15 million
or whatever. I know it was $5 million at first from the big three, but it ballooned up to
some crazy shit since 15, whatever it was. And she said, no, I'm going to try to uplift women's basketball.
As far as her play
is concerned,
it's a hit out on her.
It's a hit.
And that's just
the way it is, man.
Diana Taurasi
said this
during
the NCAA
Women's Final Four.
She said,
reality is coming
and it'll be here
real soon for Caitlin
Clark. And that's exactly what
it looks like. Especially when they played
the Liberty the other day. Sabrina hit her with a
ha! Made her look like
she played biddies. Hit her with
an easy ball fake too.
She almost ran out of bounds. Hit the
three and then Michael Jordan shrugged
on her after this. Because at the end
of the day, as good as Caitlyn Clark shoots,
a lot of people forget that Sabrina lost to Steph Curry
in the NBA All-Star three-point contest.
They had one-on-one by two points.
So in her brain, she like,
y'all think she can shoot like I can shoot?
I'm two points behind Steph Curry.
Like, let's not get shit fucked up.
And they embarrassed that other day.
The Liberty did.
The pics they were setting on her.
She melted like ice cream.
One pic she came through,
and she just hit a brick wall.
Against last night before last,
against the Suns, the Connecticut Suns.
They was killing her.
And she had 17 points.
So what happens is if you don't see these games
and you go to the box score at the end of the game
and you'll be like, oh, well, she did have 20.
Oh, she did have 17.
Well, no, it's the roughest 17 of her life, B.
She's working like dog shit for these 17.
And not only that, her shooting percentage is terrible.
Terrible.
But if you want to promote her, like, well, she still ended up with 17
or she still ended up with 20.
She actually had nine points a couple games ago.
And they still haven't won a game.
They're 0-4.
Now, I don't think that Kaitlyn Clark is necessarily the problem on the Indiana Fever.
I believe watching these first four games, because I've seen three of them and half of the fourth one that I didn't see.
So I watched three and a half games.
And I really believe that Leah Boston, that's her first name, Boston, is overhyped.
And I don't mean any disrespect
to her because she's a number one pick.
She went to South Carolina. Shout out to Dawn
Staley and the crew. But she's not
looking like a
WNBA player. She's just big.
She's not athletic. She's not snatching
rebounds away from anybody. And what you
got to realize is, too, and I'm not saying
it, like, also with Wimby,
and I'm saying Wimby's a hundred times better than her. Not, you know, I know it's male and saying that, like, also with Wimby, and I'm saying Wimby's
a hundred times better
than her,
not,
you know,
I know it's male and female,
but she's not the Wimby
of our sport,
what I'm saying is.
But when you have
the number one.
Who's not the Wimby?
Aaliyah Boston.
Oh.
Because I was saying
last year was her first year
in the WNBA.
No, you're right.
I thought you were saying
Kaylin,
because that's what
I was going to say
afterwards.
No, what I was saying
that Ali is not
because the reason
I brought that up
is because
San Antonio is so bad
that they potentially
may have the first
pick again
this year.
Which I think
they already did.
They're not going to get
the first pick
if I'm not mistaken.
I think they did
the lottery already.
It used to be the Hawks.
Yes, the Hawks. Exactly. But the reason I'm bringing mistaken. I think they did the lottery already. But... It used to be the Hawks. Yes, the Hawks, exactly.
But the reason I'm bringing that up
is because the Fever got the number one pick last year,
which was Aaliyah Boston.
And you couldn't galvanize them to get anywhere
but another number one pick this year
with Kaitlyn Clark.
So I don't know if her game is necessarily
translating to the WNBA. I think Kaitlyn Clark. So I don't know if her game is necessarily translating
to the WNBA.
I think Kaitlyn Clark
will be all right.
I think that she's going to go
through some growing pains.
I think it's a target on her back.
I think that as much as players
are uplifting her
and saying how much
she's bringing to the league
and coaches
and we see chartered planes
and money coming in
and so on and so forth.
And they're not bad mouth
or not necessarily in public,
but outside of what
Diana Taurasi said,
said,
shit's going to get real.
I really believe
they say thank you.
And when they go in the locker room,
they say,
fuck wrong with that bitch.
So she could fuck with me.
I don't know.
I don't know why
they pumping her like that to be honest with you. I don't see with me I don't know I don't know why they pumping her like that
To be honest with you
I don't see it
I don't really see what they
What the whole hype's about
What you ask sis?
29-6
Call her half a homegirl
Played against her the other night
Yeah I see you caught her body too
I don't even
I don't even know why they pumping this bitch like that
But yo
Let's take the ride for us
Let's see what we can get out of it before it's over
Because if she keeps it up and doesn't go good
They're going to wait for the next white hope to come around
So she got a couple of years to get this right
But trust me, if you don't perform well
It'll start to sizzle down and go away
Because one thing for sure, two things for certain
That NCAA's women's division
has picked up tremendously.
So we'll be looking at next year what Juju's going to do,
what Dawn Staley and the crew's going to do,
if Iowa will bounce back, how North Carolina is looking.
It's more to look forward to than the male NCAA
outside of Maurice with Connecticut, you know.
But I can sit here and tell you more players is coming back next year in the NCAA
as opposed to men coming back next year in the NCAA.
So when the NCAA comes back again next year, we may fall in love with the next stuff.
And we may say, we forget about caitlyn but this girl
she all right so let's keep that in mind too they she got about a couple years to get it right
because it will it will fizzle away it will go away magic johnson lived up to the hype larry burr
lived up to the hype lebron james lived up to the hype uh michael jordan lived up tonight when you're
this type of player you don't live up to the hype it goes away lived up to the hype. When you're this type of player, you don't live up to the hype.
It goes away.
You can't be an average player.
You could,
but that isn't what they expected for you.
Ant-Man's the number one player.
It took him a couple years to say,
okay, I'm figuring this out.
He's living up to the hype.
And you can't be Sam Bowie.
I ain't going to tell you Sam Bowie,
but you can't,
I ain't going to put it on Sam Bowie. I ain't going to tell you Sam Bowie. But you can't, I ain't going to put it on Sam Bowie.
That's mad disrespectful.
But,
but what I'm saying is,
when as good as he was,
he's nowhere near that.
What I'm saying is this,
you may have a player like Clyde Drexler,
who's really pretty good
until he plays against Michael Jordan.
Then he looks average.
Yeah.
You get what I'm saying? And you don't want then he looks average. Yeah. You get what I'm saying?
And you don't want to fall into that.
Yeah, I was thinking about everything you were saying.
And everything you're saying is quite correct.
The league is going to have to do something to protect them.
Because when you got this many players that are looking like they're not just playing a hard pause,
but it looked like they sometimes trying to hurt us.
So that you have to factor that into how she's playing because she's playing
against niggas who's hating on her.
You know,
you remember how they,
they had to make rules for joy.
And after a while,
you can't hit them while he's in the air because that,
it seemed like that's how they're playing Caitlyn.
And it's too much money has been invested for them to not protect her.
They're going to have to make rules to protect her a little bit to see what she can do under those under those rules.
I know people don't like it, but if y'all want the money in the WNBA, here go your opportunity.
If you don't care about the money, then keep playing the game
and let your ego get involved.
But the girl did sacrifice
a lot of money to play in the WNBA.
I think that counts for something.
Okay.
In the comments,
let us know you guys' thoughts.
We're going to go to break
and when we return,
we will discuss a speech
by a Chiefs kicker
that went viral.
Don't go anywhere. She call this thing abouts toxic Four years and counting Got you feeling like an option Maybe I'm my own problem, babe
She tired of hearing, I don't know What's happening, me won't fall
Dealing with this thing called trust But she really thinking about us Welcome back.
Now let's get into our underdog fantasy picks of the day.
So today the Mavs will play the Timberwolves.
Underdog fantasy has Luca at seven first quarter points. Do you have him higher or
lower? Mace?
That's a good one. It's a
tricky, tricky one. I'm going

for Luka. Higher.
Kyrie is at two and a
half, three pointers made.

higher and Anthony
Edwards is at 39 and a half points
rebounds and assists do you have them higher or lower
mace
lower higher
download the underdog fantasy app
and you can make your picks
too so right now Chiefs
kicker Harrison Bucker is facing a lot
of controversy for his commencement ceremony speech
He addressed a lot of things but I will give a lump sum of just some of the things that he did say
So at one point he addressed the women graduates directly in an attempt to counter
And what he said was the most diabolical lies they have been told
He said women should be happy to be a homemaker and he used his wife
as an example and said that his wife's
life started when she began living as
a wife and a mother.
He also at one point... A wife started?
Yes.
He verbatim said that
his wife's life
started when she had her vacation
as a wife and a mother.
And then at one point he referred to Pride Month.
Hold on, that don't sound like something you would say though.
Nah.
I'm just making sure.
His statement was missing a few words.
All right, all right.
I knew where his brain was trying to go,
but that's what happens.
I knew you knew something.
Yeah, that's what happens
when your words
are faster than your brain.
All right.
Okay.
As I continue,
he referred to Pride Month
as one of the seven deadly sins,
and he said a lot of other things
to the graduating class.
Now, on the other end,
because we got to talk about both sides,
since the speech,
his jersey sales have actually skyrocketed
and he's getting more jersey sales
more than Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelsey.
There's a lot of back and forth,
two completely different ends.
But what do you guys think of the situation?
And then in return,
his jersey sales skyrocketing.
His jersey sales skyrocketing?
Yes.
Wow, that's interesting.
That means people are checking for his comments.
Even if they, I mean, because normally when a person doesn't like what you're saying,
they start burning your jerseys and your jerseys go down.
You know, we put out some T-shirts just last week and they said the expert is selling like crazy.
So I kind of wanted to know, what does this mean?
Maybe we have more reason to give us more
information, but
I don't know what to say about
this. Why is his jersey
going up if people are mad with what
he says? So there's two
sides to every story. I don't
know. I'm asking a question. And there are some people,
I think Cam has a point.
What's going on is this. It's basically
it's not even brain surgery.
Like,
people like what he said
and some people don't.
I'm not saying I agree
with what he said.
It's some people that,
what's next election?
How much votes does Trump get?
It's going to go crazy
because nigga's standing on
what he feel.
And I don't know,
I don't know his religion or what he believes
in or anything like that but this is and no disrespect may say anything to you like that
but this is christian energy we ain't messing with no gays not talking about you i'm just saying like
the overall christian is he christian though catholic he's cath's Catholic. Okay. And I'm not the biggest
expert when it comes to religion, but I'm just saying
for the people that I do know,
I'm not talking about Mace because me and Mace don't really get
into that. Me and him have a different
friendship. I respect everything
he believes in and where he got going on. So I'm on
my business when it comes to that. So that's why
I wanted to say no disrespect to him.
But you got to think about it. I remember
Chick-fil-A saying
they're big Christians or Catholics
or one of the other Christians.
They don't support abortion,
so on and so forth.
And I remember that they had a rally in Jersey
saying they were totally against abortions.
And they opened up Chick-fil-A on a Sunday,
which everybody knows Chick-fil-A
doesn't open on Sunday.
And the line was on the highway.
I'm talking about over four people was on the highway.
You couldn't even get in the mall to get a Chick-fil-A
because you got to think,
it's a lot of people that believe this world is soft.
We can't say what we want to say.
We can't believe in what we want to believe in.
The cancel culture is out there.
We might get canceled.
And like I said, for those who just snatched my clips and try and reverse my words, I'm not saying I agree with anything he said.
I'm just telling you that it's people out there that support things that he said.
So that's why they like, let's go support him because, damn, we can't even say that we don't want the gay pride parade or we can't even say that we don't want abortions
or so on and so forth.
And I don't know if this is religion related.
This could be totally how he feels.
But I want to put the disclaimer out there.
I'm not in support of anything he said.
But it's people out there who get frustrated
because they feel like
they can't give their real opinion.
And to me, my personal opinion on this situation
is those are the people that support him
feeling like they don't have a voice anymore.
And he's the voice for the voiceless
for that particular situation he's talking about.
I get what you're saying.
So he's the conservative voice.
Yeah, a lot of conservative has lost their voice.
And those are those views that just see things the
way they see it and i think this is a really a really um powerful topic because it seemed like
as as more people begin to voice um more of a liberal view it feels like the liberals have the the ability to say what they feel and is more
accepted but then when somebody i think everybody should have the right to say how they feel no
matter what they feel because that's the only way you get to know who people really are nobody should
have to hide what they really view and what they really think. Because one thing that may be crazy to one person is totally acceptable to another person.
As long as it doesn't kill a person or harm them in a physical sense, they should be able
to say what they feel.
Look, somebody just told me the other day, great point, by the way, on great take.
A girl just told me the other day, look, women are never going to get equal pay like men
get equal pay.
This is just a female.
We're having a conversation.
She's like, Kim, just let me stay home and be the housewife and pay me like that because I keep going to work.
I'll probably get more just sucking your dick all day and cleaning up.
And that's just two weeks ago.
We're never gonna get
equal pay out here
man for men
I might as well
just stay home
suck dick
and clean up
and get more money
than me going to work
for eight hours
I'm like
cause you know
if you do a good job
definitely look out
you know
it may not be a lot to me
but it may be plenty to her
you know so when she said that I started laughing and she like nah dead ass I said well You know, it may not be a lot to me, but it may be plenty to her. You know?
So when she said that, I started laughing.
And she's like, nah, dead ass.
I said, well, there's women out there making money like men.
She said, yeah, but the overall scope of things are not nowhere close.
Yeah, you got women out there making millions of dollars and a few billionaires.
But when you're comparing it to the men, we're not even on the same spectrum.
And I'm like, yeah, that
shit is fucked up. That shit is whack.
So she's like, yeah, suck
dick, stay home, clean up,
rub your feet. I'd rather do that
than go work for eight hours
and make the same amount of money or more.
And I'm like, what that made
me realize is
I may be
overpaying for my needs.
Yeah,
because you know
I may be overpaying
because I be hearing about the $40
shit, but I thought it was inflation.
I like that.
That $40 was like five, six years ago.
I'm thinking inflation, man.
I'm just saying, man.
I'm just giving you
a female's point of view.
I'm going to have to say
what the chief said about him.
And murder.
She was white.
That's different.
Yeah, I'm not even telling you what the black woman said.
She was like, yo, man, fuck all this.
We ain't never getting equal pay.
I thought she sounded like a runaway slave.
Feel me?
Bring us back to the topic, Stacks.
I just wanted to know you guys' opinions on the situation,
but if that's case closed, then...
No, I think I really believe this guy, you know,
he should be able to voice his opinion.
I think where the world is going,
it's important that all views be heard,
and then people go from there.
I will just add, I think everybody should be able to voice their opinions, but that does not
mean that everybody's going to agree with you. I just want to make it clear too, because
obviously my like brand is making sure that I'm like uplifting people,
that whole type of thing. And that's what I strongly believe. And that's my core.
I just think that there's a time and a place. He said it around people that, you know,
have his viewpoints and that's completely fine. But at the same time, at a graduating ceremony
to address women directly and say that basically you have no.
And he that's why he gave his wife as an example that women should want their purpose into being a homemaker solely is actually insane.
But if that's what you believe, that's what he said.
I don't agree.
I think everybody should find their purpose and do as they believe.
And I hope people continue to do that.
What if that's her purpose, though?
No.
That's not.
There you go, killer.
Killer took the words off.
Yeah.
Yeah, let's go.
What if that's her purpose?
I don't think that that's, to me,
like if we're going to use certain terms,
it's real misogynistic to say that
a woman's purpose is to go and be a homemaker
and solely raise children and be a wife.
A girl just told me this, though.
No, if that's what she,
it's different when the girl says that
that's what I want to do.
But you representing your wife
and saying that that's when her life began
is crazy.
That's when her life began is kind of crazy.
If I myself say that that's what I want to do and that's my goals and aspirations,
that's very different from you telling me like,
Stat, when you leave this room,
the only thing you are meant to do,
your life began once you had a child like that's but it's
context to to i'm not defending him but there's because i don't i didn't hear it but when he's
saying life he's talking about what it sounds like i can't even say this is what he's saying yeah but in it in what he may be trying to say is that the the um
how can i explain this a woman's a woman's um purpose is is part of what he's saying like her
her yeah she can go out and make a lot of money but when it comes down to what her purpose is
what was she made for not what I think she should be
not what you think she should be what is the actual purpose of a woman and to know that you
got to know what is a woman so then you can stop having all these arguments about what she should
be because anything used outside of his purpose is going to be abuse, even if it's the person abusing themselves.
And I hear you,
but I,
based off of what I heard,
I'm not even going to try to interpret what I think he said,
because he could certainly be saying something completely different.
And I don't know.
But you know what was so,
so,
so interesting about it?
The people that heard it understood it.
The people that, that are arguing it are probably the people that didn't understand what he was saying.
Maybe you're one of those people.
We can agree to disagree.
No, I don't agree.
I don't agree.
I'm just saying the people that heard it at Benedict College.
I know exactly where he meant, man, to be totally honest with you.
And I get both of you guys' point of views.
But P, you know what he did.
You know exactly what he did and what he meant.
He went, Nino Brown, he said, I took you from a life of boredom.
He said, okay, you gave me a couple books to read and educate me,
but I took you from a life of boredom.
What was you doing before you met me?
That's what he really wanted to say.
He really wanted to say, and I'm not agreeing with what he said
before niggas do that again.
He's trying to say.
And I'm not defending him either.
His mind, I'm just paraphrasing for me.
She was washing windows in Walgreens.
He said her life started.
Yeah.
When your moms was housing
shit out of Bloomingdale's,
I took you from a life of boredom
and brought you over here.
Now, I'm not saying that's exactly...
We're not agreeing with him
or defending what he's saying.
We're just trying to add context
to what he was trying to say.
Your life began to be lit when you got with me.
Yo, I remember, listen, man.
And I watched a lot of reruns of,
but this was way before I met Coach Prime.
That's my big bro.
I love Coach Prime.
And he had a reality show on Oprah's channel one time.
And he's moved now, of course,
but he had a big house in Dallas
when I used to watch his show.
And his then wife or baby mother,
whoever it was at the time,
he has a two-story,
I don't know if you've ever seen this house,
he has a two-story closet
with the cleaning shit.
When you push the button,
it should come around.
And his wife asked for some more closet space.
And he said,
nah,
he came in here with a hockey bag when I met you.
He said,
I need all this space.
And I'm not saying
he was right at the time.
And no disrespect, Coach Rom,
this was probably 2007, 2008
when that show was on.
But sometimes, fellas,
and I'm not agreeing with it
because I got to keep saying that
because people are taking my clips
and twisting them into
what they want to turn them into.
But at the end of the day,
some men think like that.
And some men are wrong and some men are right
because
sometimes women,
and even if the shoes
don't have a foot,
you can use it reverse
if the shoes
the other way around.
The women,
the women is the bread
in the house,
so to speak.
And then they get home
playing PlayStation all day.
You come in like,
nigga, headphones, call of duty.
Yo, yo, yo, where you at?
Where you at?
She's like, is you going to clean up?
Like, are you going to wash the dishes?
Are you going to help out?
You was living with your mother
before you got here.
Now you over here wilding out.
You Mr. Mom-ass nigga,
you a homemaker.
Your life ain't start
till you came over here
fucking with me.
So I don't think that...
And they wouldn't see
nothing wrong with that.
That's the point.
I don't think that he's right.
I think that it's more about
who's the breadwinner in the house.
And, right, you feel me?
And talking how they want to talk because they're the breadwinner in the house. And right, you feel me? And talking how they want to talk
because they're the breadwinner.
And knowing that their spouse
or significant other's situation is.
And I don't think it's male or female.
I just think it's situational, me personally.
Yeah.
And even adding to what Killer said,
I think this world just,
this generation struggles with manly men.
You know, they're so used to like really controlling a man and kind of pushing them in a direction that when they're actually talking to a solid guy, they don't really know how, they're not prepared to deal with them.
they're not prepared to deal with them.
Because even when they talk about certain people that have crazy views,
what they all have in common is that they're unapologetic men.
Like, killer is unapologetic.
I'm unapologetic.
You're unapologetic.
And our views could be different, but we're all unapologetic.
And, you know, a masculine woman is going to struggle with that kind of guy I still like
have different
but I get where
you guys are both coming from
nah you got
the whole thing about it
is you can agree
to disagree
like you don't have to be
what we say
like you could have
not you
I'm just saying
people in general.
I know.
No, that's what I'm saying.
They're not allowing that portion to sit at the table.
It's almost like because they have a view, they want to push his view out.
No, his view should sit at the same table that every other culture,
people, and every other liberal view should be able to sit at the table, conservative and liberal,
and let people choose what they want to do.
Don't knock people's view off the table because they don't agree with yours
because people don't agree with my views,
but I don't tell them to knock it off the table.
We should all, when something is really the truth,
everything could be on the table, and the truth is going to outweigh the fact. I just don't understand why people are mad at people's opinion. Like,
that's what an opinion is. My opinion don't have to be your opinion. It's called an opinion.
Yeah. And that don't mean we got to be beefing to have a problem because we don't think the
same thing. I'm not talking about nobody. I'm just saying in general, in the world,
half the time, I really feel when it comes to social media
and stuff like that,
I really believe that
50 to 60% of the people who comment
really don't have an opinion.
I really believe they see what they're reading
and be like,
oh, this the wave?
Let me,
I'm going to go with this.
Because the majority of people are saying this.
I really believe 40%, are really the ones who's opinionated.
40, 30%, and the other 60, 70% are just following, like,
let me paddle on and act like I'm down with this movement.
I really don't even believe people have real opinions these days.
You have a few, but at the end of the day,
they're just following what's going on.
Yeah, they're like, this group is strong.
I'm going with this group. But if
that group is not strong, they say,
man, I don't agree with none of that.
And even just to
add on to that, that's why social media is just so crazy
the way that it works, because even just like,
even if that's not what you agree with, if that's the
majority of your feed and that's what you're consuming
and that's what you're seeing, you're obviously more likely
to, you know, sway or believe
that certain thing. But I definitely agree.
Like, I'm cool with disagreeing.
I don't understand why people feel like
if it is a disagreement,
then it's like, I can't, like, there's,
I have friends and I'm sure we all have friends
that we completely disagree with
and do not believe anything.
Like a lot of the things that they're saying,
but like-
It's a nigga who come on the show,
I don't agree with nothing he says.
I don't agree with nothing that nigga says.
We argue every day.
Still my man.
I don't agree with nothing that nigga says, bro.
At all.
Yeah.
Take a guess who that is.
All right.
So last topic before we close.
So Marvin Harrison Jr. is being sued by fanatics for breaching his contract.
The lawsuit filed
in New York Supreme Court
on Saturday claims
Harrison did not fulfill
his obligations
and has estimated the damages
in millions of dollars.
I want to also note that
Harrison does not have an agent
and he is being represented
by his father,
Hall of Fame receiver
Marvin Harrison,
and he has yet to sign the NFL Players Association's
group licensing agreement, which would allow him to participate in things like NIL. So knowing that
he doesn't have an agent, his father is representing him and that he is now being sued by fanatics.
What do you guys think of that situation and what do you guys think he should do moving forward?
Well, the first thing you got to do is switch from his dad to
his mother. You know, a mother knows best. You know, it's going to be hard to argue
against a mom about her baby. You know, the mom is definitely a better better look,
especially when you're in drama. A woman's words go over a little bit better, probably. When I'm looking at this lawsuit,
I mean, it's too early for him to be sued. He just got in the league. This is a horrible way
to start an NFL career, but it is an awakening to him and his dad because when it comes down to it you don't want to get into these kind of
these kind of lawsuits especially when it's dealing with the nfl because what was the guy
named a running back from um that that i think he had master p representing him and um
went to the saints right and it just started with that controversy
and his career just never panned out
to be the right way.
I mean, even though he had Master P
and I thought that should have been
a phenomenal thing.
No slight that Master P,
love Master P, pause.
But when these type of things happen,
they kind of put a damper on who this
player is supposed to be.
And once people see you as troublesome, they start dealing with you like you're a problem
instead of the talent that you really are.
So I hope this goes away and get your mom involved.
Get your mom involved ASAP.
Listen to what was his, Lamar Jackson
and his moms.
Get some advice.
Same way you said
need an agent.
Lamar Jackson.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Um.
Things change.
Two things could be right.
Two things could be right.
Two things could be right.
Yeah.
And I feel we're allowing people to have their opinions.
I don't really know too much about the lawsuit besides what Stat asked.
I didn't do no homework on it because I was like,
whatever, it'll probably fix itself in the long run.
But just from hearing what you guys are talking about and what Stat read,
there's two things that come to mind.
First thing is, just because
your father is a Hall of Fame wide
receiver, that doesn't mean he necessarily knows
business. I'm not saying he doesn't know business.
He may, for me, he
may not. Fanatics is not just
a
fly-by-night company.
They're a really decent
company, so I don't know what his obligation
was with Fanatics, but they should have been met
and somebody should have
told them that.
Not only is your father
a Hall of Fame
wide receiver,
former football player,
I don't know relationships
he kept or didn't keep
but he's very, very much respected
in the NFL
because of the play,
because of the way he carried himself, very blue collar, showed up to work, very much respected in the NFL because of the play, because of the way he
carried himself, very blue collar, showed up to work, didn't talk a lot. And he was Peyton Manning's
number one target for years. One person that seems to have their business in order is the Manning
family. Whether it's Peyton Manning, whether it's Eli Manning, whether it's their little nephew,
that's the number one NIL money getter,
and he didn't even start last year for the team that he went to,
and he's number one NIL.
Reach out to them if you still have that relationship,
because shit, Peyton Manning, a lot of them yards that he's accounted for,
you caught them passes.
So I don't think that, and like I said, I don't know,
but you shouldn't be above calling out friends,
reaching out, asking for help.
Maybe hire an agent if you need an agent.
Because just because you was good at football,
that doesn't mean you're good at business.
And I'm not accusing you of not being good at business.
You may have four or five Fortune 500 companies
I have no idea about.
But to let you sink in this position,
pause behind the eight ball
before you play the NFL game,
I don't think that's good.
Yeah, he wants to renegotiate
the Fanatics contract
that he allegedly signed last year.
Well, we'll see what happens.
But that's all the time we have for today.
Thanks for watching.
And as always,
it is what it is.
What you want, nigga? Everything nigga super size. Super max. Outro Music
