Welcome to part of my take presented by DraftKings Sportsbook. Today is Monday, February 26th. And boys, it's happened again. We got a court-storming problem. We've got some discourse when it comes to storming the court. I think that nature kind of has a way of healing itself sometimes. When fans storm the court. I think that nature kind of has a way of healing itself sometimes.

Hmm. When fans storm the court and the fans get injured, that's, I think that's good. Yeah. I think like if there should be a rule that if you're a player and a fan comes at you, you can just go hog wild on them. Free, the free, the free fight rule that I've had for a very long time. Let, let, let the players have a free fight. But yeah, we had a great Saturday of college hoops. We can get some of the other games

UConn in Villanova. But the big story that captivated the country for I don't know three or four hours was Duke getting their wake for storming the court on Duke Kyle Phil Palski getting maybe injured. Have we had an MRI with him yet? I don't think he's that injured. I haven't seen it yet. So I guess he sprained his ankle. He may or may not have sprained his ankle tripping the guy that was shoving. Come on.

Yeah, he stuck his foot out. The guy went flying, which is awesome. But yeah, then after the game, he just said, like, yeah, it felt personal. It felt like they were attacking me. Yeah. And then the overhead camera. I don't know. Have we always had these overhead cameras? Like saw that with Caitlyn Clark, right? Yeah

And we now we see it here. I think it's just installed strictly to review court storm It's it's strictly it's it's installed so that when a player says, oh my life was threatened We can zoom in and be like no actually you were the one shoving. Yeah, I don't listen. That was a bang bang play I don't know if I'm gonna go all the way to say that Kyle Phil Palski was like actively trying to push someone It was a bang bang play. I love court-storming. I always love court-storming. It's part of college basketball It's part of like it's unique to the sport and like students getting excited college kids being idiots I'm in for all of that because I once was a very very dumb college student and I don't forget that Even though those years are very long, long ago.

But it was court like a year ago. Yeah, we did. And that was fun. Well, that was awesome. That's when Wisconsin won the Big 10. Yeah. Outright. Share of it.

The, uh, yeah, Darren Ravel tried to try to, because he, he, uh, said that guys should, it was assault and that it should be like criminally prosecuted and all these way everyone came up with ways to stop court storming so as a big J journalist myself what I did was I went back and I found all the times Darren Ravel cheered about a court storming and I just retweeted them into the timeline and then he was like didn't you do a show court storm or storm chasers and I was like yeah and it rocked. Yes it was awesome. It's fun but again again, when you do it, you have to be ready to deal with the consequences.

Yeah, of course. If you go on the court, you might get, it's like the Harambe rules. You run into the grill and ask, do you might, somebody's gonna get shot. The big story for me, outside of the fact that it was just reminding me that like, a ton of reporters for a given sport

don't like the fans and like actually look down on them, which always just baffles me, was I was just missing coach K so much in this moment. This was a moment built for coach K. He would have probably gone into the the Wake Forest locker room. He probably would have actually scheduled maybe a lecture on Monday at Wake Forest to teach a class at center court. Yeah, he would have he would have he would have gotten everyone off the court. He would have scolded them. He would ask for the microphone. And then he would have given us a press conference where he was you know screaming and yelling and being upset not screaming yelling being his you know how coach K he gets smarmy. He

gets he screams without yelling. He gets real disappointed. Yeah. Like everyone coach K thinks everybody in the world is his son. Right. And so he gets to talk to them like that. And he would make sure to avoid all questions about the actual game and losing to Wake Forest. And I missed him. I missed him in this moment. John Shire tried his best to give us a Coach K impression, being like, you have to ban this forever.

Meanwhile, I think Duke is the one student section where like the students basically touch the players when they're inbounding a ball. Yeah. But I will stay. I wish Philip Halsey didn't get hurt. I hope no players get hurt. I do think you probably need to wake force.

Maybe probably should have like, I think there was time on the clock when the players were on the court. Yeah, the clock had expired again. That was excessive. But other than that, like. It was a false start. Figure out a way to, you know, get, I think Creight, like it was a false start figure out a way to, to, you know, get, I think Creighton did it perfectly where they basically just walled off the entire

Yukon bench when they stormed the court. Don't get rid of store court storming. Don't do that. I agree. That's the one thing that like everyone who's trying to tell you that there should not be court storming their fucking losers. And they probably went to like Syracuse or Northwestern. That's a shot at you, Jake. And losers and they probably went to like Syracuse or Northwestern, that's a shot at you Jake, and don't remember what it's like to have fun in college. I actually think that what Coach K would do would be their next home game, Duke's next home game. He would lecture his fans. Yes. As an example, be like, we're better than that. We don't need to do what the Wake Forests of the

world do. We expect to win here at Duke Duke and you're endangering yourselves and your opponents and you're more than anything you're selling the reputation of your school. Yeah. If you do this. So he would give a big lecture to Duke that is just 100% a slap in the face to Wake Forest. And how many course throwings are there in a year? Like 100, I don't know.

There's a lot. Now, so we're trying to find a solution to a problem that doesn't really exist. Yeah, Wake Forest was, they were fast. The fans were they were on it. They're all over it. You got to wait till the clock expires. And then I agree that the way that they walled off Yukon is the right way to do it. So they can all the players can, you know, file calmly off the court. But in a situation

like this, like if Phil Palski intentionally tripped the person that was sprinting full speed, by the way, that takes balls to just like sprint full speed across the court. Yes, I'm not going to be like, oh, Phil Palski intentionally tripped the person that was sprinting full speed. By the way, that takes balls to just like sprint full speed across the court. Yes. I'm okay with that. I am too, because guess what? His like, this is what happens when a Caitlin Carcass is similar situation.

When you take a terrible loss and then you have fans in your face, that's an emotional moment for the players too. So I, I'm not going to go be like, oh, Phil Palski, like what, how could he possibly do that? Again, bang, bang, play. I just, I think he's probably fine. I think he might have been a phantom role of an ankle, like, oh, shit, we lost. And I just shoved the guy possibly,

ow, my ankle hurts, ow, my arm, Rodney Dangerfield. Yeah, it's like, if Grace and Allen was complaining about like a bruised shin bone all the time, he'd be like, well, it's because he stuck your foot out and did it. It's a very smart play by him. Where it's like like you can change. No one's talking about the loss. Yeah. Talking about court storm. It is. It's a heady play. It's a very Duke play. And guess what? No matter what we say, what we do, kids are going to still rush on the court after big win at home. Yeah. Especially on a Saturday. Correct. It's just going to happen. It's gonna and it's gonna rock. And those are memories that those kids will have for the rest of their lives to be like remember that time we dumbied Kyle Philippowski. Yeah. That was sick. I just want to know the record on pro court storming. You came across there was a moment in time where you and Darren Revelle were lockstep

in your thoughts. It was like you Darren Revelle set Davis and Jeff Goodman all being like this is disgusting. I don't think I don't think Jake is pro court storming. I think he's like, yes, it happened, but were there insider agitators that were telling the kids to storm the court? I am a big set up. This is a big set up. Safety.

I didn't want anyone getting hurt, students or players. You were quick to jump on the, oh my God, this is so bad. He got hurt. The students ran at him. yeah I until we saw the overhead you gotta wait you gotta wait of course that's on me storming the court with you guys in Madison was one of the most fun experience you are a hypocrite too yeah I never said I'm anti I am pro students should have fun but this is wake forest administration's fault for not having a security plan like you said Creighton had

a perfect plan if wake forest has this, you have to come with the plan. Duke's coming to town. I don't really, I don't even really the issue is Wake Forest not being good enough at basketball to believe that security to have. There were other two people are talking about that. Oh, here we go. They were Hank. I didn't know if you were a Duke fan or a Nova fan. The we'll get to that. No. Philly Hank is is like sprouting a rose petal from concrete. I don't blame the security either because they're probably getting paid like seven bucks an hour. So pay them more. Yeah. I don't know like I'm not going to blame some dude in a yellow coat who's getting paid minimum

wage right. It has a bunch of kids running at him. The university should have had a better I'm not going to blame some dude in a yellow coat who's getting paid minimum wage, right? And has a bunch of kids running at him. The university should have had a better plan. Sure. You were you were for a moment there very much. It was it was a group of big J journalists who fucking suck eggs and you were in that group. That was a fact. You I mean you know, I you don't really you don't release a notes app if you weren't in that group prematurely made a mistake. I own it. I don't double down I know what I'm wrong. Jake. It's always 20 minutes. It's always better to be right than to be first. Yeah, you're absolutely And I was first. Yeah. Yeah, I was actually I was right in first by saying the court-storming rocks no matter what

You know what I might be I might be anti-safety. Yeah Yeah, this is Man is all about you got to take chances sometimes. Yeah If you're a fan How many times are you gonna get that opportunity if you're a wake Forest fan to beat Duke on your home court? And then just go balls to the wall sprinting right right like in the thick of the game Like I'm doing the bare minimum right now being like well You really should wait till the times fuck that run at any time. Yeah

Anti-safety as soon as the game feels like it's over fucking storm the core And you know what I bet you if you asked that guy on wake force if he if he ended up getting injured if he's got like a Torn MCL or something. He would be like yeah, it was worth it Yeah, it was worth it. I do it again. I'd do it again. The one the one wake for us guy who padded Philip House on the back and set Davis was like, do you see him try to shove him? Oh, the second guy. Yeah.

My second guy would have had more of that guy. I didn't even like he touched him. I guess you can't touch him. Yeah, you should be able to touch him. Fuck it. Maybe have chaos. Well, if that's the thing, if you want to touch the players, they're going to touch you too.

Yeah, that's I'm cool. And next thing you know, I'm very much cool. People are either beating each other up or one or beating each other, beating each other off. Yeah. So either way, it's going to be fun either way. Yeah. I just don't want court storming to ever stop and it look and every time one of these situation pops up, it's like, all these big J's just show up in like this has to stop. These guys who are sitting in a press box who don't remember what it was like to Have fun. So do it safely fine, but keep doing it do it more Agreed. It's fun and harder. Listen, I would I would rather I like seeing storming a court like this way more than I like seeing That guy and his girlfriend or wife or whatever calling Kevin Durant a bitch

Yeah, and then Kevin Durant walking over to that was the funniest cause bad for podcasters They called them they called him a bitch and then he walked over to the that was the funniest, close back. It was bad for podcasters. They called him a bitch and then he walked over to the woman and the woman was like, here shake my hand. And then they're like, well, his, her, her brother died and I have a podcast. Yeah, it was the only thing missing was if the woman was maybe skinnier and the man was fatter,

it would have been a episode of Pardon My Tain. Yeah. He spent like six years calling him a bitch, then being like, hey dude, can you come on? Yeah, please come on. We were, that was us like hey dude can you come on yeah, please come on That was us we want to have him on the podcast to ask him if he is a baby back bitch. Yeah, no, we don't I Think I've since changed my tune. He's not a baby back bitch. I just wonder some people are asking that Yes, some people have talked to and the people that were talking about are that's us six years ago Right talking about it. Correct. We've evolved.

We've changed our stance. More facts came out. Jake. Oh. So we've updated our minds. That was. And uh. I hate that I keep bringing up Ravel, but he's when he when I retweeted all his old tweets

and people are like, dude, was this you? And he's like, yeah, 2021. Times of change. What? Times of change. What? He's experienced personal growth since the year new him. Yeah. Uh, I like that. That works. It makes you since the year new him. Yeah.

I like that. That works. It makes like 16, 25, not when you're 45 to 47. One that's trying to cancel you for like high school tweets. What? Yeah. They're trying to cancel you for high school tweets. Yeah.

Revelle had a, that was in his pre woke moment. 2021. 2021. Way different. What rocks is that you can always blame anything that happened in 2020 or 2021 or like I had COVID Yeah, COVID time. Yeah, but yeah, it was a great. It was a great weekend of college hoops feels like we're getting ready for March Big story in college hoops this weekend Rick Petino brought the white suit I know and he looked good and they won and he

Apparently he had to hit up a tailor and bribe a tailor to make this suit for him. Shout out John Fanta. He was he John Fanta got the whole story. Yeah, that's like, I mean, this is why John Fanta exists. It is. And this is great reporting on his part. Yeah. And Petino in the white suit looks fantastic. Big win. I wish I had known that Petino was wearing the white suit. You have to bet on the white suit. It camouflages all the stains for Rick and so he's out there looking his best. Oh our stalker did hit me up he's like oh wait what did he say let me read it he was like this is what winners do. Yeah I mean yes I I respect Rick when he's wearing the white suit. I agree when he's wearing the white suit. This guy doesn't understand that we like Rick Patino. You have to like

Rick Patino he's he's good for college basketball. Yeah, hold on. Where he texted me almost immediately after the game. It felt like it might have been just Rick from Oh, yeah. You see what winners do go out and back it up against your friend McDermott. We had Greg McDermott on one time. Yeah. That's what happens when you poke the bear. No coincidence coincidence there. Looking forward to seeing you in Chicago for the game on the fifth. So quid and coincidence there looking forward to seeing you in Chicago for the game on the fifth. So if I'm reading this correctly credit to us. Yeah. Credit to us for getting the best out of Rick Petino. Yeah. You're welcome. You're welcome. We're we who keeps stalking me the Rick whispers. Yeah. So we had another big game. Nova Yukon would happen. So I didn't I didn't catch that one. I was at a bar that didn't have TVs when that game was going on and I haven't checked the score. Well good good

news PFT. It was dubbed the no lose. So no one lost. Okay. Yeah. But somebody had to lose. Yeah. So the way I saw it shaking out as the game was it was we were talking about we were previewing it last week and Danny Hurley tweeted out a Game of Thrones meme with him. He was pissed off because they just lost to McDermott. So you felt like something big was coming from Yukon, but I feel like this was a really no-lose situation for Villanova, who'd be playing like they had, you know, every opportunity, no expectations.

Correct. Were on Villanova. So at the very least, I expected them to keep it close within probably 10 points or so. No, unfortunately, they got absolutely boat raced. And Max was very upset. I think he might still be upset. Was it a beat down?

It was a beat down of, yeah, it was a beat down. Well, Tristan Newton had a triple double. They were actively, like they were kind of toying with Villanova at the end. They kept him in till the end, like, and every time he passed the ball, he was one assist away. every time he passed the ball, like the crowd would go crazy.

And then finally he got it. I was behind, cause I caught some guy picking his nose very aggressively, so I had to rewind my TV, normal stuff, on a Saturday night. So I was like, maybe a minute behind, and so I'm watching the end of the game with two minutes left. And I was like, he's not going to get this

because they're going to pull everyone. And I texted the group text being like, well, at least no one got a triple double max. And then like right away it happened because I was behind. And I was like, whoops. And then Max just went nuclear just deciding to, and then Hank jumped in. Hank's a Villanova fan now.

If you had been up to speed on the game, you would have never been to say that. I would never have known to say that. And Hank Hank Hank was texting being like, I, I fucking pray the Villanova plays the Badgers in the tournament. What, why is this a rivalry now? My, the Badgers are not good, by the way, they're going to be in the tournament. They're not good.

They hurt. They, the minute I said I was becoming emotionally vulnerable, they stunk from that moment on. So they actually made it very easy for me. So my expectations are low, but Villanova, I don't know if they'll be in the tournament. First four out. Actually, they're three quad one games still left on the schedule.

First four out. So right now, if the tournament started, they would not be in. But they got the quad ones. According to Joe Lunar, like that doesn't mean anything. Well, I mean, he's usually pretty right. That is incorrect. Right now, Blake has them in the tournament

and it would be a dis it would be disgusting if they like he would be very disappointed if they didn't make it. But you got to worry about the bubble. So why are you coming at me? I was I was upset. I was emotional. Yeah. So how are you feeling now in Hank? What is your are you is there beef now? No, I was I was I was just with Max. He was he was in a bad place. I was trying to fire him up. I was also just trying to fire him up, you know, as a friend and also just to get some spiciness

in the group text. Does he get a, actually I just got text from Blake. He's listening live, he's got great ears. He has them as the, one of the final four into the NIT. So, go visit the NIT, that's his NIT bracket. Max, and I pray we play you as a 12-5 pray. Hank said Mega Max lock of the millennium Nova versus Wisconsin. Hank we're being boys. Out of nowhere. Hank I work being boys. So that was your first Villanova game you watched,

Hank? Yeah I'm trying to get back into it. It was it was the tweet I thought was a little over the top. Obviously you know you like that out of your coach with the Game of Thrones tweet. It was like 88% of the public money was on Yukon and seemed like a letdown spot seemed like everyone was like oh my god he put out this Game of Thrones tweet they're going to kill him and you know big East rivalry big spread. But Danny Hurley backs up what he said. I know. But I was just thinking. Everybody said that the Madison Square, he said,

no, he said you can get us now, get us now, because you won't get us later. And then he was completely correct in saying that. And I was thinking Big East basketball, it's going to be close, rivalry game. And then Villanova, I think, shot 7%. So you thought it was a letdown spot for UConn after they were coming off of a letdown.

Yeah. Yeah, it was a letdown after. Yeah, it was a double off of a letdown. Yeah. Yeah, it was a letdown after. Yeah, it was a double letdown. Also shout out, Game Day, to having Danny Hurley shoot half court shots and he immediately just yelled, fuck! I love that. Like as loud as possible.

I love that. Also, I heard a rumor that College Game Day was not allowing Max's. I heard the same rumor. That they were not in the interest of promoting part of my take Yes, and so for all the people that showed up with max has I got I got tips on they were confiscating those signs. Yes ESPN is

Someone DM me and yeah, they brought a sign and they took it yep I heard that too. So they'll let you do football game day. Yes, but they won't let students bring They were trying to hire me at the time Everyone in that booth listens to Max are they trying to hire you shout out shout out Kevin shout out Kyle Who else is in that booth? I don't know in the truck, but he has been probably a Joe He is Joe. He is being probably sees all the max memes and their next big move is to hire Max at ESPN. Boo. Yep.

Make him a meme. So wait, Max, back to the game. Yeah. Did we start with the game? What? What do you think? We're back to the game real quick. You can't make shots, Phil.

We did it. Well, at least you're aware. And what? Is it a maker miss leak? Yeah. Shooting 12% from three is not going to win you basketball games. Max's max was max was sitting at the bar but like you know when you stand on the bottom of your chair so you're even taller. Yeah. He was doing that yelling at the TV and I just

kept looking at the bartender being like what what is going on. Credit to me Max I didn't I told you before I didn't do the thing I was going to do which is going to be very mean because you guys were at Declan's my one of my very good friends owns the bar and I was going to do, which is going to be very mean because you guys were at Declan's, my, uh, one of my very good friends owns the bar and I was going to have him go over before the game and be like, Hey, if Yukon covers big cats paying for the entire tab, just to have everyone root for Yukon at the table. Didn't do that. So credit to me. Yeah, at least I wouldn't have had to pay for the tab. And I realized what I should do if that ever happens again is I should actually make it like shots for the entire bar. Yeah.

So the whole bar roots against Max. I would leave. I'm going to do that. I'm going to do that. That's what I thought you were saying at first when you were like I was going to cover the tab but no you were just paying for Max's table. Yeah, well he was with like 10 dudes. So I was going to just get all the dudes.

It was a great Saturday up until that and then you woke up this, you put on your sixer shirt and you're like, it's going to be different today. Melt to ass. I mean, no, sixers. Yeah, no, you can't even get that from. So Nova in or out? They're gonna be in. They're, it doesn't help.

They started the day yesterday at first four out. They finished the day at first four out. They can't lose to Georgetown. That would be a quad three or four loss. That would be bad max if they George Towns must win you need a resume builder Well, that's not a resume builder. No resume Three quad one games after that. Okay win some quad one games Max. We win It's not hard George down and then when two of the next three were in go do it. It's not hard. Max versus pug next week. Huge bubble game.

Yeah. Straighten Hall. Do it, Max. Go win some quad one games, quad two games. That's all that matters this time of year, quad one and two. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Should we participate in the difficult discussion

that's happening across Michigan regarding Tom Izzo? Yeah, it's over. You think it's over? I was a really bad loss. Tom Izzo, we were very early on this take, which we made, I think being sarcastic that he's overrated. Now, now it seems like the world's catching up to that take. It feels like it feels like we lost K. We lost Rory Williams, lost Bayhime. Bayhime, by the way, getting like a Bayhime day this quick. Yeah. That feels weird.

He's got a little time pass. He was very upset. He got fired. Yeah, I think so. That was a really, really bad loss. Things are tough right now for Michigan State. I feel bad for him. If you're Michigan State and you have a big brother win a national championship in football,

you were pointing at basketball. Yeah. You were like, well, it doesn't matter where basketball school and then to have this implode on them. But I feel like with Izzo, are they gonna, would they fire Izzo? No. You have to let Izzo walk on his own.

You have to be like, well, we'll fire you if you don't retire. Yeah, he will gracefully go away. It's not like you can, there's no retirement home for coaches to be like, we're sending you to a home. Right. I look after you. Right, no, he'll,'ll yeah, he'll have to they'll do it right. I have a trivia for you PFT. Okay Yeah, I'm gonna list some names, okay

Jeff Capel any pain Hubert Davis Earl Grant Adrian Autry Damon Stottemire Mike Ashrewsbury Kevin Keats Leonard Hamilton, okay What are those? Guards? No, those are ACC head coaches who happen to be black. Okay. That was actually a graphic on ESPN. Interesting. ACC coaches who happen to be black.

Happened to me. Happened to me. They just stumbled upon it. With a coincidence. I don't know what the fuck that was. That's wild. It's way better to say are black black head coaches black head coaches who happen to be but yeah we're putting up this stat isn't this a weird coincidence. The whoever made

that graphic is so scared of language that they went with happens to be black. So why would you make that graphic if it's happens to be? I don't know. It was one of the weirdest things ever. I thought it was a Photoshop when I first saw it but then I saw it everywhere. I was like this actually was put on air. I love that. Happens to be black. You know what I was thinking about the other day? You remember back in when was that? Was it 2020? Maybe before when ESPN had the guy named Robert E. Lee earned his name was Bob Lee Robert Lee. Yeah Robert Lee and he was going to announce Asian dude. Yeah Asian guy.

So calls games for them. Yeah he was going to announce a game at UVA and they moved him off the assignment because his name was Robert Lee. We were insane for a little bit there. Didn't what was that was the DJs guy the DJ who ended racism didn't we get over this. Who was that at the MLS? Oh, yeah. Tiesto. No, David. David. Get a, uh-huh. Just shout out George Floyd. Shout out to his family. Shout out to his family. Keep playing. Start of that clip real

quick. The, uh, but yeah, happens to be black. That is, you got to, you got to pause and be like, what am I saying with this? Yeah. They're head coaches first. And they also, it's just a coincidence. They just happen to be black. They just are black. And we put them in a graphic together. To show that they all happen to be black together. Yeah, David Guetta, he means racism.

Maybe they meant to say happy to be black. Yeah, possibly. Yeah, here's David Guetta ending racism. Is in honor of George Floyd. And I really hope we can see more unity and more peace. Yes, when already things are so. Things on the watchers like once a week. So shout out to his family. And here's the beat drop.

Bam. And it's got the I have a dream. Yeah Get the confetti in the NASCO. Yeah, he remixed it. Okay rooted in the American dream. I have a dream. Bang, there it is. See a racism. Now, now we party.

Yes, see like that. Whoever wrote that happens to be black, they should just been like, dude, someone in the truck should have been like, hey, dude, don't you remember David Guetta? Yeah, we we've been through this. We don't we did this. We're good. The graphic shows that it happened to be black black, but actually I don't see color. So who knows? Crazy. Crazy. All right. Any other college basketball? I want to see what happens to be Polish. Happen to be Italian. Happen to be Italian. Anything else before we talk some other sports? And I do a quick ad. I think that was all college basketball. Houston Baylor was awesome. Well,

until the one Baylor player. They lost the ball. Well, no, he missed the free throw and then he lost the ball and that he made a terrible foul. Yeah, his controller got unplugged. Yeah, that was that was one of those moments too. I went and saw migration. Everyone should go see it. Great kids movie and I was watching that game and like underneath while my son was sitting on my lap watching a kids movie being like this fucking asshole just lost the ball. God damn it.

I knew he was gonna miss that foul shot. Oh, well, he was like a 57% 100% he bricks that every single time. Yeah. Um, but yeah, that was a great game. I I bet on Houston's really good in that game and I got a future on him. So I'm just rooting for them to win no matter what. So they didn't cover then the brick then the buzzer beater that wasn't what a wild ride. Yeah. It was crazy. It was crazy. All right.

Yeah you know let's fucking call him because we've mentioned him so many times our eSports reporter Darren Ravel. Here we go. Let's see. I'm going to just ask him how many years he went back to look at penises through see through pants. He probably is not going to pick up after last time. He's kind of a glutton for punishment. What if there's a game and it's raining and someone always sends him clips of the show?

How how see through these things gonna get Seriously, it's be wet t-shirt contest He's probably looking at he's probably going through years and years of penises. He's yeah, he's Yeah, I mean step one make the bases bigger two, make the dicks and balls more visible. Yeah. Step three. Now you're the biggest sport in the world. Yeah. Watch out NFL. You did it.

We do a quick recap so people know where we're at. Yeah, we have Dante high tower in the five spot we have title law in the four spot. Wait, wait, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no I did some research and I did reach out to Chris. I apologize for my comments towards him.

He is on the honorable mention list. Can we make a quote card on that? I apologize to my comments towards Chris Long. Yeah. Hank Lockwood, because he heard what you said and he asked you. He's like, keep my name out your mouth. And it dawned on me that Hank has become Florio. Hank Lockwood is doing, you're doing fan fiction.

You're trying to get clicks off his name. Well, it wasn't fan fiction. It is a fact that he did play for the Eagles the next year and he is very good friends with Lane Johnson. So I kind of, but there was reports, there was articles that were written that he was like, he hated that Lane Johnson said that he disputed all of the claims that Lane Johnson made that I kind of, you know, memory hold. Yeah. Memory hold. And I was just like, he's friends with Lane Johnson. He loved it when he said that he definitely agreed. Not the case. And I apologize. Also, you forget that the Lane Johnson quote was not even the Lane Johnson quote because we said, I heard it. We said it. He had kind of agreed with it

and like not really like jokie agreed with it. Then coward said that like did a whole segment about it and then it just became fact it's yeah it's actually kind of funny that we were the start of that story and then Hank is somehow mad at Chris Long yeah you were sitting in the room you got that story really wrong okay so you take it back Chris Long honorable mention Patriot yes that's good and then in the number four spot. Okay, wait, two, six and five again. Dante had tower six. Okay.

Tied law five. Did you watch the other two episodes? I did watch the other two. I am a little upset. They kind of just yada-yadaed 2003 and 2004. Uh-oh. Which the whole series is called Dynasty. The first three episodes were great and then at the end of episode three they're like

yeah they won in 2003 or 2004 a dynasty happened and it's like that was the other two are the or what make it a dynasty yes and that was you know they won a 21 game win streak they were dominant there was a whole there's a lot of lore in those two seasons with the paint manning and a lot of the playoff wins Brady becoming you know a superstar that I didn't appreciate them. Basically they spent 40 minutes talking about to Flake 8, five minutes. Spygate.

Spygate, yeah. Five minutes, basically just a quick highlight package of 0304 and I would have liked them to reverse it. So you're saying this documentary is maybe not off on a great foot in terms of whose? Eye lighting? I would have liked a, I want some more biased

direction in this documentary. I haven't watched yet. Seems like they're making a documentary for the masses, which I guess is what you're supposed to do. I was just expecting pure Patriots porn. And that expecting to be, you know, days and days of porn. And it was just, they just were like, yep, they did like a back to back Super Bowl. A full episode on Spygate, basically. And I had forgotten some of the details in Spygate.

I need to watch. Do you remember like after after the story came out that they were they're videotaping stuff illegally when Manjini kind of ratted them out to the New York security. The next game that the Patriots had, they brought down these giant electric boxes on the sidelines that were frequency readers to make sure that you didn't have Ernie Adams talking to Bill Belichick during the game. They treated it like it was West Germany, East Germany in the middle of the Cold War, where they were checking into everything. Then Belichick's explanation about the spy gate stuff, he's like, yeah, you know, I had a different

interpretation of what the rules were. And then they explanation about the spy gate stuff. He's like, yeah, I had a different interpretation of what the rules were. And then they read the rules for him. And he was like, yeah, well, you can read it one way. We read it another way. There was a lot of cheating going on. So I'm not a doctor. I just stayed at a holiday.

And last night, I did not. I have not watched it. I'm going to watch it. I did read a Jerry Thornton blog, though. And he was like, why was there so much time spent on Drew Bledzo and Bill Parcells? And it's like, yeah, that is weird that they would do that and not talk about winning the Super Bowls.

Which my fear now, since it's called Dynasty, they just glossed over Dynasty Part One, is that they're going to gloss over Dynasty Part Two and then just talk about Belichick and Brady for like. How many episodes are there? 10. So they can't so there's going to be a full episode on 28 to three but they did a full episode leading

up to the to what the hell is this why do you put this on the Zangflorio people are watching on anywhere we have it rumble you I mean, this is a great photo. You have to be watching this episode right now. Hank Florio. That is a fucking nightmare image. You look like the shadiest lawyer of all time there. Hank Florio. It's like that's a weed law.

That actually is going to give me nightmares. That's a lawyer that specializes in like driving well stoned. Who made that AI. Shane. Yeah. Shane just made that. Oh my God. No. Hey, I mean, it means made it means send that to all of us. I need that Hank Florio. OK, so by the way,

Darren Reveille texted me back saying I don't believe you. So he's he's hip to us. That I leave you the what that I was going to actually ask him a question not hang up on him, which he's right right I would have hung up on him maybe no I definitely would have I would have said what how many cocks have you looked at to try to carry the water for Michael Rubin and they've been like uh bang

would have been great we'll get him again okay so Hank six and five. Dante, I tower. Yep. Tie law. Okay. Four. Four. Recurring guest. Oh, I think it's friend of the program. Jules. Great guy.

Jules. Gritty receiver basically. Oh, thought through seven concussions against the Seahawks. Chris. So made a miraculous catch against the Falcons. Super Bowl MVP against the Rams. Wow. Julian Edelman. Wow.ove made a miraculous catch against the Falcons. Super Bowl MVP against the Rams. Wow. Julian Edelman. Wow. Okay. Four. I think that's fair. Okay. There's going to be a lot on Julian in this documentary. I mean two feels like more. At least three. Hank is nothing but honest with this and I feel like yeah. Gronk is without Brady and Gronk together. I don't know if you get the second part of that dynasty Mount Rushmore

He is on the Mount Rushmore. All right. He deserves to be who's your honorable mention this week Chris long or today Oh Chris long. He wasn't on it. Oh, he wasn't all right. He's on dishonorable mention. Yes gone from dishonorable honorable No, Chris long Hernandez should be dishonorable. Yeah Yeah, you should Even ruled them out of the list. Oh, yeah, you're right. We still have 10 through it. It's eight to go. Well, he was never actually convicted. His conviction was vacated. So that's true. In the eyes of the law, not a murder. We'll be cool if he was number one of himself. He just went purely on, you know, upside. It was there. Okay, so Wednesday we'll get number three. Who's defense? Defense. Who could it be on defense? Will Fork? Will Fork, yeah, it's gonna be Will.

Or Bruceki. Or Vrable. Is Hank gonna have an all white top four? Uh oh. Uh oh. Oh no. Just Patriots who happen to be one. Yeah, uh oh.

Oh boy. Okay Hank, you still have time to change, oh no, you can't change it. All right, should we do who's back of the week and then we'll get to our interview. Who's back of the week's brought to you by our friends at Coors Light from day to day annoyances to the big stuff.

Life throws your way, it's easy to get worked up but there's a better way, a chiller way, turn that canceled concert into a parking lot dance party, too cold for an ocean swim, play volleyball and light a bonfire instead that's choosing chill and when you choose chill reach for a course light when the mountains turn blue it's as cold as the Rockies when you choose to rise above it all choose chill choose course light get course light delivered straight to your door with instacarp by going to course

light comm slash take celebrate responsibly course brewing company golden colorado course light comm slash take go right now it's the coldest beer it's the best beer it's course light we love course light thank you to course light one of our favorite sponsors Hank your who's back of the week yeah we're gonna have a conversation about this big cat because I don't think this I was in New York for a long time bad sports down shitty sports teams bad fans I've really enjoyed my time in Chicago. It is a great sports town You can feel the energy in town around these teams. Okay, so I did

I'm gonna finish. Let me finish back. He literally looked online and was like I need something for who's back What's the last thing that happened? No, this is a fair. This is a this is a bad sports town moment in my opinion Okay, Patrick Kane. Yeah, Red Wing first came back against Chicago. Yeah, I was there. You were there. There were actually a lot of Red Wings fans there like a lot. And the first goal was very lot like, all right, so I took my son. It was incredible night. I got a little misty eyed when they did the Kane video tribute is cellos for Jersey retirement. Iirement. I had to watch the Chelyose Jersey Retirement at home because there was no chance I was getting a four and a half year old to sit through all of that.

We went to ice cream maybe eight minutes into the first period to try to prolong the staying at the game. The Kane moment was incredible. It was like he's everything. He's the best American hockey player. He's fucking three cups. Like he's just showtime, big moment after big moment. I saw the overtime goal.

He scored an overtime goal and basically got a standing out. Yeah, I mean, it's the Blackhawks are bad right now. They're going for lottery balls. I also think there were a lot of Red Wings fans there that people don't realize. Because the first goal, so. That might be a bad sport sound of Insulner.

Well, yeah, it could be the first goal. Chellion's retirement night? The first goal, my son stood up and cheered. So he's actually a bad sport sound because he was confused cause other people were cheering. He just heard the horn and was like, that's this rocks. Now were they cheering for the goal? Were they cheering for Patrick Kane?

Or were they cheering for the draft pick? Both, all three. I mean, Patrick Kane is like yeah I get it I sure They're they're really bad. They're the worst team in the NHL Patrick Kane is the best. He had double double standing ovation. He went out That's all fair and went back. He deserves all that now. You know, we should do but once the game starts It's like that's where it's like, you know, that happens a lot of it were tanking they come back and they give him the standing Oh, and then once the game starts or we're tanking or we're tanking Oh, there was there's a lot of Detroit sucks chance going what we should do is how Hank's doing like the top 10 Patriots like the

Dynasty in his eyes We should do our list of top 10 guys that played for a shitty team in your town that you rooted for the hardest when they left Yeah, I still root for Patrick came not as much now on the red ones I did last year for the Rangers Yeah, okay bad sports sound. That's fine. I mean Patrick Kane is like he's the best I don't disagree. I just think you know once once the game starts you want to win. They're so bad though Hank And they don't want to win. They don't want to win. I Guess I guess hey it was so greeny. It's embraced a big. Give me something, it's a tank for Celebrini. Give me something, something.

Suck weenie for Celebrini. Suck weenie for Celebrini, that's what we've been doing all year, idiot. Suck weenie for Celebrini. It's a very popular hashtag. Yeah, dummy. It was an incredible night though. And we also have Box of the Year nominee.

So I was lucky enough to, to my son is going to be very jaded because he was able to get, take a picture with Wayne Gretzky tonight, which is crazy. His first hockey game ever. But there was a box at the game that was Wayne Gretzky, Mark Messier, John McEnroe. I was only in there for like two seconds, but Wayne, Wayne Gretzky, John McEnroe, Mark Messier, Kid Rock, Theo Epstein, Cindy Crawford. It might have been boxed in the air. It would have been Jordan too if he was supposed to be there.

Yeah. And Jordan also released a very funny video on a golf course and he started with they played it on the Jumbotron at the United Center and he just started with hi. I'm Michael Jordan. It's like, okay, we know. We know, we know, dude. God, I would have been so starstruck by Kid Rock. That means, oh, that means Kid Rock's definitely getting fucked up in town tonight somewhere. My wife was like, how long were you in there? I was like, we actually were only in there for like 90 seconds

because I got the picture with Wayne Gretzky said hello, and but we had to leave because my son was like, Kid Rock, I think he was smoking five cigars at the same time. I love that. It was so fucking smoky there. My son was like, I Rock, I think he was smoking five cigars at the same time. I love that. It was so fucking smoky there. My son was like, I want to go home. So yeah, he's a bad, my son's a bad sports down.

He also kind of a tough moment for me when I bought $200 worth of 50-50 raffle tickets. He's like, what do we win? I was like, no, that's not how it works. You win the ability to start to get to the U-minutes. That's, that's, we, yeah, if we win this, we haven't won. But okay, I understand your sentiment. You just completely forgot Sakwini for so, Brini.

Yeah, just, I think at some level, if you're, if you're in a game in overtime. Patrick Kane is so good, man. I fucking love that guy so much. I love him. I got misty eyed. That was my, who's back was sports feelings. Cause I was literally sitting there being like

God damn it. He rocked so hard and it was like having a guy Play for your team and being like that guy whenever there's a whenever you need a big moment He always delivers. There's just no better feeling as a sportsman. I hope that's very good Yeah, you're just like that guy will always show up when you need him to show up jewels Yeah, you're number four patriot. Okay, PFT. My who's back is Flacco the Owl. Yes.

RIP kind of back, maybe not so really back. Dead. Flacco the Owl. Died. RIP unfortunately flew into a building in New York. So Sean McDermott needs to do like preseason pump up speech for the bills. Yep.

I think he'll just do a graphic on Flacco. So he's been capturing the hearts and minds of New Yorkers for the last. I think he'll just do a graphic on Flacco. So he's been capturing the hearts and minds of New Yorkers for the last like two years. He's a Spanish owl and excuse me, Eurasian Eagle owl. He's an immigrant. Yeah, he's an immigrant and he escaped the Central Park Zoo in New York when somebody cut his netting in February 2023. And then he just chilled in Central Park like a mascot flying around, dining on the biggest, fattest, dirtiest rats in the world.

Is there a chance? How did he die? Did he leave a suicide note? How did he die? Yeah, because it feels like maybe he just was sick of all these New Yorkers taking pictures of him. So I believe he flew into a building. Yeah, he flew into a building.

Idiot. Yeah. It's a building, dude. So they said that there was a substantial hemorrhage under the sternum and in the back. Oh, they did autopsy on the fucker. Yeah, it's a fucking owl. Yeah, so he flew into the side of an upper west side building.

Imagine being the window washer and you did like a great job and you're really proud and then you repel down to like the next floor and then flakko. I bet you that love owl in the world. I bet you that apartment's probably gonna go above asking now. You think so? Yeah, this is where Flacco- What if it crashed through the window?

What if it broke the window? Yeah, most famous New York desk, John Lennon, Flacco the Owl. Yeah, so RIP Flacco, I know everybody was really sad on Saturday morning. So, I'm not, I don't wanna, I don't wanna piss off the Flacco the Owl people. Very sad, I do love animals.

Some of the reactions were a little crazy. Yeah, so I saw this one and I couldn't tell if it was satire, but it definitely wasn't, but it was great satire if it was. This person said, late last night, I saw the news that flakko had passed away from a building collision. It seriously felt like I collided into a wall myself.

Just completely stunned to read those words. What an unfortunate tragedy Rip Flacco will miss you. Is it really a tragedy when an animal dies? Like is it a wild animal? Harambe again? I guess. Yeah I guess. Just killed a lion. I guess I just never was a Flacco guy soambe, again. I guess. Yeah, I guess. That's all the lion.

I guess I just never was a flakko guy, so it's like, I don't know. People loved this fucking owl. There was a vigil. I'm not gonna hate on people because people should enjoy, I'm a big believer in people enjoy whatever they wanna enjoy,

but saying it felt like I collided into a building too. Yeah, it's a little bit much. Yeah, that was heavy. That was heavy. So apparently he didn't break any but this is actually something's up. Oh, is it Epstein? He it says he didn't break any bones. But he sustained massive hemorrhaging inside his body. This seems like somebody else had a hand. We need to check the flight log. Where's Hillary? Yeah,

where's she been at? Was Flacco on the list? She'd been somewhere in the woods, walking around. This owl probably had information that would have led to the arrest and subsequent conviction of Hillary Clinton. Yeah. Interesting. Do you think Hillary and Bill late at night,

like Hillary's just like, so, what have you been doing? Maybe. They had, like, there's gotta be an awkward silence at some point where you're just like, so yeah, that time you said you were going on a business trip, where was that? Yeah, or why did you have to put a cigar in an intern's vagina, Bill?

It's like, that was a- There's got to be some really awkward moments, like in their marriage where they're just sitting there. Yeah, never mind. Yeah. I don't want to talk about we don't need to get into it because I like doing the show and I hope none of us gets killed. Oh no, I was saying that's what they would say. Never mind. I don't want to talk about it. Yeah, probably because Bill doesn't want to get killed. Yeah. So I feel

like well, there was a hilarious Valentine's Day post from Hillary to Bill the other day and was just like my Valentine after all these years and they're like smiling at each other. There's no chance they love each other, right? It's a work relation. Zero percent chance that they're in love with each other. But yeah, Flacco, justice for Flacco. I'll stand with the people who, listen, it's, you know.

It seems fishy the fact that he died by flying into window and didn't break a single bone. Yeah, and there's a lot of people in New York City and there's a lot of people who, you know, they need to find an owl to Be their life. Yeah, so I understand it. Yeah, no different than our sports teams or Harambe or Harambe. Yeah Yeah, but that was a little says murder. Yeah, little sat there. Yeah, and a little sat and shot. He was murdered Wait what? What? Wait, huh?

Harambe was murdered. There's no question about that. Cold blood. A guerrilla. A guerrilla. I feel like this owl, this OWL, got murdered too. I'm gonna look into it. Alright, my who's back, good who's back, my who's back is Cam Newton. Because, holy shit, don't fuck with Cam Newton. He was at, he was at his 7 on 7 tournament he was throwing, and there was a fight

video that got released and Cam Newton somehow fought off well I guess not somehow because he's a fucking monster and a like beast of a human he fought off three guys with his hat never being touched the hat never got knocked off the hat had the tassels on it it remained perfect I it it should count as you knocking Cam Newton out if you knock his hat off yeah that's that's the rule Dak Prescott could never by the way I would like to see like next reference out he Logan Paul versus Cam Newton no punches just try to steal his hat Cam Newton beat the fuck out of him no you beat no punches just try to get the hat

try to get the hat can't be done it was it he there was one moment where you had a guy in a chokehold and then was just ragdolling another guy with his other arm. It's just awesome to see like, you know the, I don't know how this all started, but... They're probably talking shit about the hat. Yeah, and these guys being like, yeah, three on one, we can get Cam Newton and Cam Newton just being like, no you can't. Yeah, Cam Newton is first ballot, like don't fuck with me guy. You would think too, if you were trying to fight Cam Newton, you'd be like, you'd just have a quick second where you'd say, oh yeah, he used to do this

to NFL linebackers, like run them over, make them look like little boys, little boy ass play. And why would we try to fight Cam Newton? Yeah, a lot of people are saying like, this might hurt any aspirations he has of a comeback. I hope so. I think it helps a lot He didn't make any business decisions during this fight No, those three guys are just idiots for picking more morons came to his like six five six six Probably 250 pounds don't fuck with Cam Newton. Yeah, he's a he's a shit brick house

Yeah, as he has he put out a statement on it with a weird font. I Don't know. Maybe that was a fight over the font. You might have been funny. Yeah. By the way, so we were talking about flak o the owl. There's been another animal that we've discussed on this show recently, the pregnant stingray Charlotte. Oh yes. Yeah, the dude in that in where where is it? It's in North Carolina, Hendersonville. Okay. So yeah, the dude the dude who works there being very nervous. So Charlotte the pregnant Stingray has still not given birth, which makes me think this might be a publicity stunt. Or RG3. RG exactly like, like, is she really

pregnant? And there was a great- She could be body shaming. Yeah, she might just be fat. She might have just gotten fat. So, um, going through menopause. Add this to the back off. Add this to the list of great black sports online headlines of all time. No, no, no, sports online who happens to be black experts on if a shark had relations with a female stingray who is pregnant even though she hasn't seen a male stingray in eight years video. That's a great headline. Shout out Robert Little. Yeah. Oh, gee, he's been on the internet for a long. One of the best ever.

Right headline. Yeah. Yeah, we need to we need a conclusion to this. Otherwise, she's just fat. She might just be fat. She's fat. OK, Jake, finish us off. My who's back of the week is this league.

It is Derek White and Peyton Prichard. First of all, thank you guys for coming by. And Derek, I've met you before and I'm happy that you're here right now because you contributed to a very embarrassing moment

for me. I don't know if you even remember it, but it was surviving bar stool and I got eliminated in the first day so I was staying at a hotel and the Celtics were playing, I think you guys were pre-season. Yeah, we've been nicks in the pre-season. Yeah, and we got in the elevator together and I was like, I have a podcast and my producers are huge Celtics fan and you just go, yeah, I know. And I was like, fuck, I feel like

such an asshole. So I think, should we credit Blake Griffin for getting you guys to listen to PMT? Is that who we need to credit? Actually, my god, Paul over here. Okay. He was the one that sent it to me first and he's like, you gotta watch the fastest two minutes. And so I used to watch that. And then I was like, let me just keep watching

and see what's going on. And he's been a fan since. Love that. Respect. So you're aware of Hank in his Celtics fandom? Yeah, yeah, yeah, so I knew all that. I mean, BigHat got in the elevator, but he had headphones in, so I'm like,

I don't know if I should say something. Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Like, we kind of stood in opposite corners of the elevator, kind of just looking at each other. I was like, yeah, I'm a big fan, but I don't know what to say. It's like, I'm a big fan, but I don't know what to say. When you see Hank on the sidelines with his feet on the wood,

you know, like sitting court side, or are you like, I got to show out tonight because Hank's here. It's like when guys see Drake on the sidelines. Yeah, you always want to show off for Hank. Yeah. Do you guys know when you guys were in the finals, did you see Hank almost take a, was that in the finals when he pumped shot?

He did a pump fake with the ball, the ball rolled to him in the middle of the finals and he pumped faked and had the whole crowd going crazy. What game was that? What game was that? Game four or five? Four, yeah. Yeah, it was a nice pump fake. He did the mellow, yeah.

It would have gone in. It sounds like you guys don't really know the vibes that hang spring. I didn't see that one. We lost that game, so I don't think it helped or hurt us. Yeah, that's probably hurt. If he shot it and went in, that would it and went in that would help. Yeah, sure. Shoulda shot it. Yeah Um, I want to talk to you guys about something that is I guess everyone's talking about right now after the all-star game It was not really a game as much as well. It was like a lot of offense

We've figured out some ways where we can fix it most of them are stupid as shit and probably won't work and your guys had like Is there a way that you can fix the all- game? Cause I do have one suggestion to add to it, but I want to hear you guys go first. Also Derek, you should have been an All Star. Facts. Yeah, yeah. I appreciate it. That would have fixed the All Star game. Yeah, that would have fixed the All Star game.

You would have tried hard. What was that? Yeah, yeah. So what's the fix, Peyton? Do you think there is a fix or is it just guys don't want to get injured? Putting money up for like the winning team? Yeah.

Well, my idea was that the losing team had to pay the winning team. Because then it's money both ways. Because then guys would actually be upset if they lost. Like they have to pay. Like someone has to go and pay LeBron $500,000. Yeah, so what amount per person? I think it's $500 each. Yeah, it's got to be something big.

Yeah. It would also be very funny if Adam Silver was like, you guys stay out of the gambling app, stay out of casinos. Also, if you're an all star, you're forced to bet the other guy 500,000 dollars to make our game better. Yeah. My suggestion would be that the winning team,

everybody on that roster for the winning team gets like 10 tags from the NBA's main account on Instagram for the rest of the year, along with a link that will allow people to slide into your DMs more easily. Like highlight reels. You get like 10 highlight reels for the rest of the year. That's pretty good. We think about that. Just for the winning team?

Just for the winning team. Yeah. Losing team gets low light reels posted. Every missed shot. Yeah. Whatever it takes and making it entertaining. I was thinking too, losing team can't tie their shoes for the rest of the season Do you guys think I mean that would probably be an injury waiting? I don't like that. Okay?

All right, as long as we win. Yeah, yeah So we got the video right there. That's Hank on the sidelines. It's on this monitor right here I mean forward. Yeah, I hate that because I was actually off of my turnover Fucking guy oh Oh, no. It's crazy I remember that. You almost got an assist. You're like, who's that fucking guy? Oh, man. That's very funny. You shot it and you made it in Steph's face. Like, that would have been crazy.

The crowd would have went nuts. They can't kick you out if you make it, right? No. No. If you miss, if you air ball, they kick you right in. Yeah. That makes sense. Yeah.

So the other question I had to just start about the NBA right now the thing that people talk about a lot is the scoring is crazy right now from your guys perspective because you've been in the league for a little bit you obviously been playing basketball your whole life is it a problem or is it just everyone's so skilled that it's like we're trying on defense but guys are just so goddamn good I think a little bit of both I mean especially like as it goes on defense, but guys are just so goddamn good. I think a little bit of both. I mean, especially like as it goes on, like in the playoffs, like you'll see more, more defense, more intensity on both sides.

So especially like in the playoffs, like there is defense, but there's just so much space now and you're giving these star players so much room with four shooters around them. Like it's really, really hard to stop them or slow them down. So especially when they get in the rhythm, so it's just, really hard to stop them or slow them down. So, especially when they get in a rhythm. So it's just the space and everything like the rules they way are. It's kind of impossible. But I mean, once the playoff starts and it gets a little bit

more physical and it'll definitely slow down. And that's really a different ball game. Yeah. Did you guys notice it right when you got to the NBA? Like Peyton, you played Oregon and then you get to the NBA and it's like, wait, everyone can make shots everywhere? Because it does feel like the NBA is like, every guy on the bench can make shots. For sure, I kind of noticed it like in college,

it's like, I don't know if you noticed it, but like, you turn the ball over in the NBA, it's almost like a guarantee three ball or like, to the rim. Right. In college, you might, you know, people can miss. You also have like two or three people in college you can help off of. Right.

And you also have this note three, like three seconds in the key. Right. So you got a big that's just sitting there. So I think it's way harder scoring college than it is in the NBA, but it's just the different rules as far as that. Yeah, and college refs also are terrible refs. That's a fact.

They just call it charges everywhere. Yeah, they just addicted to calling charges. Yeah, you can say it now. Like you're not in college. Yeah, you can say college refs, Pac-12 refs pretty bad. Yeah. Yeah, that's why that got rid of the league. They did well for us. So we won a lot. So I didn't complain. There you go. Yeah, you're a big 10 guy now. Yeah. Yeah, you got me. That's that's real basketball. That's we're playing in like the fifties. So you got to be ready for that. Did you, my Oregon question is like, you had to hate that court, right? I mean, it's I didn't actually notice it, but on

TV. Yeah. And TV, it looks weird, but you never noticed it playing, but I didn't mind it. Because you played in Colorado, your last year, Derek, did you notice it when you get there? You're like, this is what is going on here? You don't really notice it that much, but like when we had shoot around you'd be like, this is what is going on here? You don't really know it's an M-Wish, but like when we had Shoot Around, I was like, what are we doing? Yeah, it's, it's, it's. It looks dirty. Yeah. Looks like somebody spilled something on it.

I mean, I do like- It looks horrible on TV. Yeah, it looks horrible on TV. I do like it when it's like, you know, 10 p.m. and you got Bill Walton calling a game and it does feel like you're taking acid with him. And you're like, okay, this makes sense. But when it's like a prime time game,

you're like, I don't want to watch this. What's going on? That's true. Yeah. Derek when you went to Colorado Were you did altitude affect your shot at all because I'm all I'm always thinking about altitude in terms of football, right? You always talk about the altitude games going to Denver, but it's got to make a difference in basketball, right? I don't know about the shot. I mean, I'm from Colorado, so I never really knew the difference But yeah, when people would come in and like they can't breathe Like that definitely is real, but I don't know if it really affects the shot

Maybe I don't know. I never really thought about that the less wind resistance. Yeah, I might just a little bit for a guy like me I'm money down at sea level you see that but if I go to college I might be able to dunk You might be better. Oh good point Peyton. So we've got we've got a member of the podcast Hank that thinks that thinks that he's going to be able to be, he's going to be able to dunk by the end of the year, the calendar year. He's about five inches away from the rim right now. And he's just going to train like hell, just work out the legs, build up some beef in the quads, the hamstrings.

And so I guess you've got to get what, like eight inches above the rim to be able to dunk. You think you can do it? How old were you guys when you first dunked? Good question. I was like, um, probably like 16. Okay. 15. 15, 16. And what changed where you like couldn't dunk before and then what did you work on to be able to?

I think the answer is genetics. I just got above the rim. Oh, sorry. That's, yeah, that's what you did. That was pretty much it. I gotta ask about the hat to save the bees I Just saw the hat in my house like the colorway, okay fit the outfit at the time So I just went with it. Okay. You're not a bee guy. No, I don't even know what that's for

Fuck them bees yeah, all right, I got a tough question On a scale of one to ten how awkward is it it, Coach Mazzulla's obsession with the movie The Town? How often does he bring it up? He doesn't really bring it up with us that often. OK. But I think it's a media thing. Yeah. He never is like, this is like, you know,

you're going into like a game seven, you're like, we're robbing a bank, boys. It's no big deal. We've done this a million times. We've only seen one clip. He showed one clip of it one time. But who's car are we taking? No, no,. We've only seen one clip. He showed one clip of it one time. The who's car we taking? No, no, that is his favorite line though.

Yeah. It was the note. Yeah, the note, the car, the left the note on the car. Yeah. Yeah, other than that, he does wear that shirt a lot. Who's car we taking? Yeah. Yeah, it's definitely his favorite movie, but

yeah, it is. You don't hear about it as much as the media. It is probably a media obsession, because the other one was that he does, what does he do, Taekwondo? No Jiu Jitsu. Yeah. Yeah.

He got choked out. Or he was trying to get the guy out. Yeah. And yeah, I think there was a story about how he got, the story about his Jiu Jitsu coach flying out like every time that he needed him was nuts. But I guess, I mean, he's a tough coach. Like you guys guys when you guys like when he took over the job we're like this guy's played. He's a tough coach like

you like playing for a guy like that. I mean he definitely expects like I enjoy it because he expects you to play hard. Yeah. You know sometimes I feel like in coaches and NBA they they get the NBA mode of like the seasons long and stuff. He doesn't really care like back to back or anything. Like he's trying to win every game and you can feel his passion towards it. So I really respect that out of him. Yeah. Was there a moment for each of you guys

where you realized that you could play in the league? Where we could. Yeah, yeah. Like growing up. Like right, no, after you get drafted, right? After you enter the NBA, I assume that everything's a little bit new there's some uncertainty there right because you haven't played against us level competition yet Maybe in the back your mind unless maybe you're supremely confident in your own abilities

But I would assume that there's like something in everybody that's like I don't know Let's see if we can do this and then there might be a moment where it clicks and you're like, oh, yeah, I belong here Yeah, definitely. I mean my first year I was basically in the G League the whole time and like when I did play in the NBA, which is like garbage maintenance like here and there. So it's kind of like in the back of your mind, like, do I really belong here? Like, especially a kid like, like I was from D2, like the D1 like late, like some people like they come to the league like, yeah, this is what I've been destined to do or not. And so definitely was the time I was like,

do I really belong here? And then probably like the playoffs, like I had a good first round. And then I was like, oh yeah, I'll be here for a little bit. And they kind of just clicked from there. Yeah, did you have one Peyton? Or you're like, yeah, I belong here. Hmm.

Probably like right when I got to Celtics is playing against the guys, preseason stuff because I played right away Yeah, I kind of thought yeah cuz Derek you had the famous pop quote when you came when you got drafted by the Spurs And I think the story goes that you played well in your first pre-season game And then someone asked what your role was gonna be and he said get towels and water. Yeah, that's gotta hurt Yeah, yeah, and I was like I thought I'd play pretty well. Like maybe I'll find some minutes here and there. And yeah. And I saw that I was like, oh, this is going to be interesting. Way different from anything I've ever experienced in my life

before. Do you think that was good? That like he, because it feels like pop is a guy who like, he doesn't want to throw you into the fire. I would assume that would be a good thing for a rookie who's like, I don't know, you know, what's going on here. Yeah, I mean, it makes sense. Like we had Dejante, Patty, Patty Mills, Tony Parker, Mona Ginoboli, Danny Green. Like there's all these guys that have done so much in the league before me. So like he's not going to just throw you out there if you're not ready. And I mean, I was just trusted it because the Spurs has had so

much success developing players. And so I knew that I was gonna be sent to the G League eventually and just try to embrace it and make the most out of it. Did you ever interact with Kirk Goldsbury? Do you know him? I know it is, but. He was like the vice president of being a nerd.

He's chief nerd. Chief nerd. I like his numbers. Yeah, yeah, he does the graphs. Yeah, so what do you guys think about that? About like basketball analytics. Do people, does a nerd ever come up to you and like whisper in your ear like,

hey, this is your corner and you need to shoot more from over here or like this is, you should change your game in this way? Not necessarily like, or this is what, like you know where you like to shoot from so you don't really need someone to tell you but I want to say someone's like,

maybe you like break down the numbers like, oh you shoot this much from the corner and or a web percentage. So like, they don't really come up to you saying that, like they don't really want to get in your head and whatnot. So, but you know, like where you want to be at and where you're comfortable at. And so you just try to get to there.

Yeah, I've heard a lot of stories about San Antonio about how Pops a big wine guy, he loves wine. He'll go out, take people out for the most expensive bottles that you'll ever find. Did he ever take you out for dinner? Like, were you part of a team dinner where he just opens up the wallet and drops 20 bottles of wine on the table? Yeah, all the time. Like especially like we stay in the city after a game like

it's a team dinner and all the wine and like one time I was like my rookie year I was like no I don't want to drink anything like trying to be a good guy and he was like oh come on like you're gonna have a glass of wine with us like this is part of the gig and he was like, oh, come on, you're gonna have a glass of wine with us. This is part of the gig. And I was like, all right. And then ever since then, I just started getting more into wine. And if I have a question about wine, I'll call pop. And he'd be like, no, don't drink that. Drink this.

And so he's big into wine. That's awesome. I know a lot of NBA players have gotten into wine recently. Is that something that you found is more and more popular over the years? Yeah. I think it's really the big thing. I mean, especially after a game, it's just nice to have a glass of wine.

Yeah. Just kind of relax. They should let players in the All-Star Game drink wine during the day. I mean, LeBron was probably during the day. He was probably during the day. Peyton, when you were at Oregon, a lot of guys, obviously in the NBA now,

they don't stay for all four years. Did you sense it from the fans that they were like, all right, this guy's been here for too long? Cause I looked up my old tweet and I had one that I was said is this Peyton Pritchard's last year I swear he's like 28 years old and has been playing for the Ducks for a decade get him off my TV Yeah, I mean I feel like it felt like that because I just I started as a freshman, right? That's the yeah, yeah, so like and we were went to the final four that year too. So feel like it's like a

It's like a good thing people think of because it means you're probably winning and you're on like the big games a lot, but I don't know, yeah, definitely. I felt like I was there forever. I noticed that you changed up your shoe game recently because I think the first time we saw you play meaningful minutes for the Celtics,

we were like, why is he wearing black shoes all the time? Black shoes are slow. I've seen that, but they actually weren't black. They were like dark green. But the problem was, I had a couple of good games in them. Yeah. So I'm like, that's all I take. They are slow though, you.

They are. They look slow. My dad used to always say that. Yeah, black shoes look slow. Yeah, sure. I only wear white ones now, really. Yeah, I noticed that. I think we talked about that on the show,

where I like where Peyton's going with his career, because he's not wearing those clunky ass black shoes anymore Yeah, I switched them up. This is the high-level analysis you get on this show Yeah, you listen listen listen to JJ Reddick talk about like off-ball defense all you want We're gonna talk about how slow you look when you wear dark colors Yeah, and you got way better when you started wearing white shoes facts Yeah, speaking of which the details the important basketball details that we always get into in the show Derek why'd you decide to cut your hair?

Well, I told my boy like Christmas of that year is like after the year I'm doing it and then After the after we lost like I was just sitting there kind of just depressed and then just like I was just sitting there kind of just depressed and just like cut it. And then it just happened and just been rocking the ball to gang forever now. Yeah, yeah, it's a good look. It is a good look, yeah.

Some people hang on way too long and then you're like, I probably should have done that a couple of years ago. I'm talking about myself right now, but I just wear a hat. So I respect the fact that you're like Belichick, cut it one year too early instead of one year too late Right. Yeah, I mean I I walk ahead all the time

So they didn't really change much like really just on the basketball court is really people notice it So yeah, it's just who's the one team that you guys like to beat the most question Does it rhyme with you say Philly Philadelphia Winnie and Philly is fun yeah yeah you guys do a lot of that rivalry you can feel it is different going into into that building or when they're playing us in Boston so yeah you think it is a rivalry because at some point they would have to win right to make it a true

rivalry it's a fun game we were you guys we you guys on the Celtics when the when the Sixers hit the cannons too early? No. That was all the time. That was Philly that did that? Yeah, Philly hit the cannons and then they lost in overtime. Yeah, I'd have heard about that. You got some good plays and they celebrated it?

Yeah. That's wild. Yeah, in a playoff game. I can't believe that. That was pretty bad. That's embarrassing. That was really bad. How good is Jason Tatum?

When you watch, are you on the court ever kind of zoning out being like, damn, he's good? Because maybe you're like, oh shit, I wasn't paying attention to that possession. So I was just watching him just be awesome. He's phenomenal. Yeah. I mean, at his eyes, the way he can dribble and move and being able to hit threes and get to the hoop,

I mean, he's one of a kind. Yeah. Yeah, off that question. So you guys obviously like, you have Jason Tatum, you have Jalen Brown, they're kind of the stars on your team. How do you stay like in rhythm if you're not shooting for an extended stretch?

Because that like, we've had this debate with people before that sometimes the NBA turns into like one-on-one where a guy's just going off and you're like, there everyone else has to stay in rhythm somehow. How do you do that? Yeah, I think that's like a very underrated skill. Yeah. Especially if you don't touch the ball a lot.

Yeah. But I think especially this year, like we're doing a good job with like everybody's involved. It's not just JT or JB. I mean, we got a lot of weapons. So everybody's involved. We each got the freedom to attack and do whatever we need to do. But yeah, it's definitely an underrated skill of just being ready whenever you finally get

the ball or the ball comes to you. The ball might not come to you for 10 possession in a row, but you still got to compete defensively and then be ready to knock it down or make a play. So it's definitely one of the tougher skills that nobody really talks about that it's hard to stay in rhythm, especially people have had the ball in their hands their entire life. Right. So it's definitely an adjustment, but especially this year, I think we're doing a good job just keeping everybody involved and everybody just feels like they're a part of the offense. Yeah, yeah, I mean, it is it definitely like no one really talks about or no one really like compliments guys who are able to be just in rhythm even though they haven't been part

of the offense for a couple of sessions. And you're right, I didn't even think about the part that like you guys were obviously incredible basketball players your whole life and then you get to the NBA and it's like, wait, I was the one who was taking all the shots. I had 50 ball screens at work. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, now it's somebody else. Yeah.

Last year in the playoffs, you guys obviously were in the Eastern Conference final. Didn't go well. I'm not going to bring up painful memories. But I had two questions about that series. One, our boss, Dave Portnoy, tried to take credit for putting together a team dinner. Do you guys know that he put together a team dinner in Miami

when you, I think you were down 3-0? Did you know he did that? That was, I didn't know it was him. Oh, okay, so it looks like no credit given. Yeah. In Miami. You went to that little sushi place where we sat up top. I didn't think that was for after game three though.

It might have been game four after game four, but he basically was like if they win this series, it's all because of him. That was before game five maybe yeah or game six before game six Komodo Komodo oh yeah yeah so he knows those guys so yeah did you know that he was the one who hooked that up I did not know okay it was good and a lot of food okay all right so he yeah he was walking around being like when they come back it's all on the start of the championship DVD so that's what

he was saying. That and Topgolf. Yeah, oh Topgolf. Yeah. Topgolf brought you back. And then the other one. About that. Yeah.

Our, when Derek, when you hit the game winner in game six, which was incredible, I, first of all, to walk me through how like that happened because it was like off of a rebound, no time left. Like, did you just, it was just all instinct, I'd assume? Yeah, pretty much. I mean, I was taking it out and I remember there was like two seconds or ever much they added on. So I was like, we got a lot of time.

So like I was affecting like someone to take a dribble or something, but when we talked about a training camp, like in the game, offense or rebounds are huge. And so the shot went up and I just was like, you might as well crash and it bounced right to me and then there, that's just instincts and I mean, I felt pretty confident that I got it off,

but you kind of just sitting there waiting and I feel like that five seconds was like five hours. Yeah, it was great. I bet you there was a lot of dads across America were like, see, that's why you crash the boards. That's why you follow your shot. That's why you followed your shot. Like that was, you were, you were, everyone's like favorite player that night.

And then the other thing in this shot, our producer Max, we have a video up. So he is a Die Hard Sixers fan. He hates the Celtics. He hates Hank. He hates pretty much everyone. And all he does is lose. So this is his replay of what,

he's rooting so hard for the heat in this game. This is replay of watching your shot go in. So go ahead play it. And no one asked him to take the video. No one asked him to take the video. It's just like I'm gonna film myself. I was had a couple of beverages. I think it was Memorial Day weekend.

Yeah, your cheeks are sweating. It was hot. No! No! No! No! No! Can it count? No! No!

No! No! No! No! I need a rolling! I need a rolling! I need a rolling! No way!

No way! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! Oh, he got the ball!

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! That's game! Oh! Oh! Oh!

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! to those yeah that was him you crushed you ruined his labor yeah no I wanted you guys lose for sure that's what yeah that's what sports does brings us all together the best kiss by your boys in the middle of the max do you have any questions for them because you hate the Celtics so much I don't know like what's it like I mean you got to hate Sixers fans more than anyone right they beat you all the time. What do you mean? I hate you but it is definitely a different atmosphere in Philly but once I hate him it's fun. Like I said earlier it's definitely fun playing there. Yeah. Yeah I

mean you guys just beat the shit out of us all the time. Hank what do you got? You got Hank is diehard Celtics fan. He actually like, now that the Patriots stop winning Super Bowls, I think the Celtics are his number one easily. Yeah. I mean, for a while, I feel like the same core team, the biggest unexpected storyline for me has been like poor Zingas and Jalen Brown and how tight they are. I feel like they're like a buddy cop friendship, which no one really expected. Is it like that?

Like were you guys surprised at like how tight they are and like do they act like they're like, you know, brothers in the locker room and stuff? I mean, I feel like I wasn't surprised. I mean, they do live in the same apartment building. Yeah. But no, they're, JB and KP have wrote like just easy going and like get along with everybody, great personality.

So once I met KP, he was going to be a great fit to the locker room because he is just a good dude. Yeah. They're always nice to each other. So they got no choice but to become friends and they were just playing well together. So... KP makes life easier for everybody. Yeah, for sure.

Does KP do things in practice sometimes We're like, holy shit that dude still got some incredible athleticism We don't I mean in the games, but practices. We don't really like do live stuff or anything like that's a bad question bad question And you from anywhere in games. It's like I definitely want to ask Unless you get to switch your life in games it's like. I definitely wouldn't ask that. Unless you get to switch your life.

I feel like his body was just, they just kind of put him in suspension last year where he was like on ice for a year playing with the Wizards and then they're like, okay, now we're gonna, now he's fully healthy, ready to go. Yeah, he killed us last year. Great year last year. He killed us last year.

Yeah, yeah. Hank also, he just told us before we started taping this that if you guys don't win the title this year He's gonna shave his face into Soul patch. Yeah, never said that. He's like all in all in. Didn't you say that? Nope. You want to say it right now? No For the guys right here. You believe in the Celtics. Don't you? Yeah, I'm believing us. Yeah, you don't believe in this Come on

Come on, you don't believe in them. How much do you believe in this? Come on! Come on, you don't believe in them? I believe in you guys. So then you would do it if you believed in them. Yeah, I believe in you guys. What about Hank? You can follow Derek's lead and if the Celtics win the championship, you shave your head. Oh! I'll do that. Okay, all right.

We got it. We got it. And if they don't, soul patch. Yeah, I'll shave my head when we win. Okay, okay, yeah. When they win. Do you have any other crap? No, it's we.

Yeah, is it we? I've wondered about that, like with Die Hard fans, can they say we? For sure, it's the city. Yeah. Yeah. They're all part of it. They're all part of it.

It's hard to soul into it. Yeah. Do you get mad though, when, because what I do is I say we when it's going well and then when it's bad I'm like they. Yeah, that's not you ride or anything. The other one. My other question was Jeff Van Gundy

because he obviously just came in late. Does he work with the players or does he work with the coaching staff? Because it's not a coaching role. I don't really know what his role is. I just know it's like, yeah, Jeff Van Gundy's a Celtics staffer, but what does that mean? Yeah, he's mostly with the coaches.

But like he's just around practices and if anybody has anything they can go to him. He's a great basketball mind. And so just adding him has been, I think great, but I think he's mostly with the coaches, Steph. How many, does Brad Stevens ever draw plays for you guys? Or is he just obviously, you know, he's in management, but does he ever come down and is like, hey, try this?

Not that I've seen, but I'm sure him and Joe talk. Yeah. Brad, because I played with Brad for my rookie year. So he's definitely really smart in that aspect of like the game and like the plays and all that. Like Brad is a genius. Yeah. When you guys like would go on a losing streak or anything, would you ever just be

like Indiana would pay me $150 million right now if I went back to college? You think they would? Yeah, yeah, they definitely would. He never holds that over you guys like I can be I can be living in Indiana 150 mil no problem. No, I think he enjoys in Boston. Yeah, yeah, I mean he's got a pretty nice life, I would say. I like, that's the Indiana basketball.

They just, he is the guy that they just put out there. They're like, Brad Stevens will just come and save everything. It's like, I don't think he's leaving. Yeah, that's an awesome happy. Yeah, I think being in the front office would be an awesome gig. You just watch basketball and you're like, here's what I would do different.

Especially for a good team. Yeah. It'd be like, yeah, see, we're good. One minor tweak and I think I could solve this. Yeah. What are the differences in coaching style between Brad, Eme and Joe? Oh, good question. I guess that's only for me. Yeah. Hmm We do FMK for those three effects I mean, there's definitely similarities to all three of them Brad is I would say a little bit more laid-back obviously really smart E-May was more tense. Would you say like he's like?

I don't know, compared to Joe. You guys got an edge when E-May took over, it felt like, especially defensively. Yeah, I think definitely did. I think Joe's like a balance between the two of them. Like, he worked on the brad, so I think he took a lot of that stuff. And then, and Joe was already like, you know,

kind of like a psycho in a way. Like he's very like mentally locked in and he expects that a lot. So it's like, has that part of like emailing him too. So he has like a little bit of both. Yeah. I mean, I would expect you to be pretty like locked in and you know, going aggressive when you have the town just playing on loop in your brain.

Sure. The more I think about that, I like that strategy where it's like, I'm going to tell the media something just ridiculous about myself. We fell for it. And then that's all the idiots in the press room ask about. It's like, talk to me more about the town. Yeah, we fell for it. And meanwhile, they're not asking about anything else.

He does, yeah. He does, yeah. Yeah. When you guys saw E-May having a little back and forth with LeBron, were you like, I'm not surprised at all? No, not at all because I knew he didn't like LeBron. I mean, I believe that LeBron would have, I think E-Mays might have beaten him up if he, if they let them fight. Head to head. Yeah, it feels like, it feels like E-Mays a pretty tough dude.

It'd be interesting. Yeah, I'd pay to watch. Maybe Ruffin Rowdy. Mm-hmm. Maybe we'll get it going, Ruffin Rowdy. That'd be good. Speaking of the'd pay to watch. Maybe Ruffin Rowdy. Maybe we'll get it going, Ruffin Rowdy. That'd be good. Speaking of the town,

what are you guys favorite Boston movies? Ted. Ted. Ted, okay. Ooh. That's a wild card. I kind of like Goodwill Hunting. That's a classic.

Oh yeah? Yeah, that's a classic. It's not your fault. How about the maples? Yeah. Uh-huh. I just go see about a girl. Yeah.

Yeah. A lot of classic lines of that one. I went on my first date to Goodwill Hunting. I just go see about a girl Yeah, yeah, very a lot of classic lines of that one I wanted my first day to goodwill hunting didn't go well. I didn't know it's got a bad bad connotation in my head Yeah, oh girl broke up with me at the ice skating rink right after the movie was over Oh, you never watch it again. I never watch it again I should go back and see it but it would bring up a lot of painful memories But jokes on her cuz I dated like all our friends afterwards nice you get back at her yeah it is awesome for you thank you I touched boobs when I watched Waterboy in the theaters that was pretty cool that is cool yeah yeah I don't know if it was the

first time but it was awesome that movie I didn't watch much of that movie big moment yeah I got another series basketball question for you how far in That's awesome. That movie, I didn't watch much of that movie. It's a funny movie though. Big moment. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I got another serious basketball question for you. How far in advance do you pick out your outfits for the ton of walks? Oh. P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P part out if the answer is not correct but when you were in that boy dad sweatshirt that was not because you're a boy dad that was because you listen to the podcast I am a boy dad okay so I just had my second son and so my wife bought it for me and I was like after but and also it's also a little sass you love little sass I didn't actually didn't know it was okay but now you love little sass

wish you had found out about him earlier. Yeah. I should have done my research before wearing it. Yeah, yeah. I am a fan now. Yeah, that's good. I love that. That's a good shirt.

That's huge. Good answer. So the stretch run, you guys obviously were taping this in February. How is the stretch run in the NBA when you know you're a really good team, you guys are the one seed, you know you have the playoffs, like is it hard to keep focus down this stretch where it's like we're gonna be playing meaningful basketball for a very long time. And like these games in the middle of March,

do they kind of drag sometimes? I mean, I think the one difference about this team this year that I noticed is like, everybody really like loves basketball. So every day, like when she said like, everybody's like kind of excited to play. And every day like when she said like everybody's like Kind of excited to play and like it doesn't matter if it's really a back-to-back or you know We've had like five games of seven nights like people are like motivated. So yeah

Yeah, I said the toughest stretch in the NBA is probably like the week or two before all-star break. Yeah Like it's not halfway like we've played the majority of our games And so you're just tired and people got their vacations booked like they're looking forward to get to the Sun and So I feel like that's the toughest stretch and then I mean after this now We're just trying to prepare for the playoffs and make sure we play in the best basketball we can to Get to the real basketball. Yeah, does affect your preparation for the playoffs at all with the playing tournament We don't know who you're gonna play until like the last minute

No Take any but yeah, not really. We're about the the end season tournament Did you guys like when they announced the end season tournament? Did you care about it? And then once you start playing in it? Did your level of how much you care about the end season tournament change? Yeah, when they first announced I was like, what is this like? about the N-Season tournament change? Yeah, when they first announced it, I was like, what is this? But it was actually pretty fun.

Like that game against Indiana that we lost at Indiana, like Indiana has never been that loud before. Like in the games I've played there, and like it was just a different level. So I think it was a success and it was a lot of fun. I think they did a good job with it. It's gonna just be around forever now. Yeah, people are pumped.

We actually have a colleague here, Mark Titus, that has a great idea for how to switch up the NBA a little bit, make things more exciting. One night per year, there is one breakable basketball goal that you can like shatter the backboard at, but they don't tell you where it is, but it's just in summer arena, somewhere in the league. Do you think that would get the guys pumped up?

Yeah, it depends on like Nobody like if it's a basic dunk and the backboard breaks then you're just like ah that is that would be let down Yeah, you're right. It would have to be a good dunk that broke it Yeah, if you guys ever broken a backboard or a rim, no? Just let nerf one. Yeah, that counts. That's gotta be a great feeling though, if you're able to shatter one.

Yeah, Hank, before I ask my last question, do you have any other questions? No, I was gonna talk about the fashion questions. I feel like it's you, JB, and Tatum are always going for it. And then some guys, Derek and Horfordford just roll up in like their normal normal fits Yeah, time to drop off drill comes with some good outfit. Yeah KP. He's so tall, but he always rocks the you know Where's the rolls it out?

He got a little style. It weren't suits the games from you in there So have there ever been any misses where some guy where some of the he thinks is gonna look really awesome and then you guys just all clown him I mean I've definitely missed my time oh look back at some of my old outfits and I'm like what the heck I'm gonna look it up yeah did Drake was it was the was a locker after that when Drake was chirping you well I didn't know it's whether to take it as a compliment or was he trying to diss me but I mean and the dates Drake was saying something about me. So I was like, whatever, it's a compliment.

All right. Last question, Roback question, RHOBACK.com promo code take 20% off your first purchase, QZips, Polos, hoodies, joggers, shorts, everythingroback.com promo code take. Do you guys want to guarantee a title? It would help the podcast. And we've been very nice to you guys. We're gonna put everything into it to win one. Okay.

Mm-hmm. And what about you, Derek? You're gonna get one. Yeah, I agree with what P said. Okay, so if I said you guys are gonna win the title, guaranteed, would you agree with that? Won't be because of a lack of effort. Okay.

Okay, so it's halfway there. If you don't win a title, how disappointing of a season is that? It would definitely be disappointing. That kind of sucks though. Like I know that's the right mentality for a player to have, but you can have a great season. What are you, honest right now?

Yeah, no, I am. No, I'm like, Anthony Rendon. Like the game comes after faith and family. But like if you have a great season and you don't win the title, you're like, well, that was a waste of a year. To me, like I don't think you even don't. Like the game comes after faith and family. But if you have a great season and you don't win the title, you're like, well, that was a waste of a year. To me, I don't have that mentality, which is probably why I'm not in the NBA, where I'd be like, yeah, I made a lot of friends this year

in the league, so it's not a waste. Had a good time. Yeah. I don't know. I would say it's a waste. It wouldn't be a waste. It just makes the story better when we finally do do it. Yeah.

That's true. And we got enough because we'll just do a quote that says, we're gonna win the title guaranteed and then not for lack of effort in really small print. And then it will say, Peyton Prichard in big print and then Big Cat in small print. Yeah, or it can be. So you just have to figure out who said what. You can be like, uh, just send me up. We're going to win the title this year. That's a guarantee dash PFT and big cat

and then in big letters while they're interviewing Peyton Pritchard. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what's sad. Our chances. And Derrick in there at all. Just pay. Yeah, just pay.

I have a second to work. Oh, I had one last, last question. How awesome of a teammate was Blake Griffin? Cause we love him. He's the best. He's kind of our best friend. Like was he, yeah, why, why doesn't he, why doesn't he still play basketball? I don't know, we we love him. He's the best. He's kind of our best friend. Like was he, yeah, why, why doesn't he, why doesn't he still play basketball?

I don't know, we begged him to. I think the whole team is gonna beg him to. We've been begging him to. Yeah, I'm begging him to. Back to Boston. Like come back to Boston Blake, dude. Have you guys still continued to beg him? I'd text him actually like a week or two jokingly being like,

coming back for one last ride. And what'd he say? He says, enjoying his life. Fuck, I kinda wanna FaceTime him right now and make him go come back to basketball. coming back for the one last ride. And what do you say? Says enjoying his life. Fuck, I kinda wanna FaceTime him right now and make him go come back to basketball. Yeah, quit enjoying your life Blake. But if I FaceTime him, he doesn't pick up, it would be disastrous for me.

You should try. I'll do one more question while you're doing that. If there was a button that you could press and you win an NBA championship, but someone somewhere in the world dies, but you don't know who do you press that button I Seen this movie before this is a good thing they give that button to another person and then yeah that you got to be We're gonna be a vagina during that yeah

That was a joke There's a big oh he did pick up hey These guys miss you why don't you why don't you keep playing basketball? Is it cuz you can't dunk? Come on there they said that Peyton Pritchard said he would he texted you like last week saying come on back Yeah, yeah, we talk we talk we talk quite a bit. I'm Just enjoying life right now. I told you it's bad I fine well we got to get you back on soon. I the question was how awesome is Blake Griffin as a teammate and they said the best Oh nice. Yeah

Yeah, you're welcome. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Hey Blake, I got one more question for you Do you guarantee the Boston Celtics win an NBA championship this year? I think yeah, they're my favorites. Okay, so yeah, he said yeah, we'll end the sentence after yeah Okay, so why don't you why don't you come back and win a ring? Because we we could tell everyone you can still dunk. If you get that out there enough people start treating about it then maybe I'll come back. All right no problem we will do that. You can still dunk. All right by Blake thank you for picking up. All right. Did you ever hear anybody yell at Blake like congrats on winning Blake at the year

to him. All the time. All the time. Every time every game our fans are the best but they can take things too far we had that with Max Homa who we had to get them to stop yelling at him homosexual no no pervert pervert you don't say that pervert so that was our fault because we called him a pervert and everyone's like oh you're perp now him a pervert, and everyone's like, oh, you're a perp, no, it didn't work out that way. All right, well Derek, Peyton, thank you so much. Best of luck the rest of the season. Hopefully you guys win it all, otherwise Hank's gonna have to get that sole patch, so.

Right, Hank? We got it. Okay, and if you do, shave Ted. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, thanks guys. ["Song of the Year"] Derek White and Peyton Pritchard were brought to you by proper number 12 Irish whiskey. They've also got crisp and fresh proper

Okay, we have two Monday readings. Um, one is memes sent us a story from Reddit. I want to do that second. The first one I wanted to share with you, PFT, uh, from the people that brought you Travis Kelsey inventing the fade. Mm hmm. We have have a new phenomenon. Thanks to Taylor Swift fans. It was a headline that reads Taylor Swift fans drive drive. Excuse me. Taylor Swift fans drive new travel trend of gig tripping. Okay. How does it work? Can I guess? You could

take a guess, but you will be wrong. Okay, so if you're a fan of Taylor Swift, then you want to go see her perform in concert. Yes. But her concert is not in your hometown. Yes. You could take a guess, but you will be wrong. Okay, so if you're a fan of Taylor Swift, then you want to go see her perform in concert. Yes. But her concert is not in your hometown. Yes. Then you would make a trip to go see her play her concert somewhere else. Kind of. Okay.

Gig tripping, this is from the article, gig tripping combines travel with music with people willing to merge vacation plans with a music event. Okay. This has literally never been done. I've never heard of this. So you take a vacation and your vacation is going to a different city and seeing a concert. Correct. Now am I full disclosure, slightly triggered by this,

being a grateful dead-end fish fan, maybe, but gig tripping has been invented by Taylor Swift fans. According to Sky Scanner, 44% of Americans are willing to fly short haul to see their favorite artists while 18% will go the extra mile with long haul flights. And it goes on to say, with kids and adults alike looking for Swift tickets, travel company Travelmation is seeing

an increase in gig tripping requests. I just booked a family on a European trip built entirely around Taylor Swift. This is literally what hippies have been doing for well they just had decades and decades and decades and decade gig tripping is one of the hottest trends in travel and much of it is thanks to Taylor Swift. She's creating an industry. Yeah. Adam Duckworth president and founder of travel nation said we have clients booking trips all over the world this year Gone are the days where people see their favorite artists at the local venue

Gone gone people don't do that anymore Usually it was just if you're if your favorite band is playing within 20 miles from you you go otherwise never I have seen some of those clips of people on planes and they're all going to the Taylor Swift Yes, and that I would rather be on a plane with 75 maxes. Housing, like what is that, 150 sodas? I would much rather be on a plane like that than a plane of Taylor Swift. I'd rather be on a plane with the pilot as Flacco the Eagle.

Wow, sorry. Yeah. Apologies, Flacco people. They're willing to travel as far as necessary to experience these high energy shows. And it goes on and on and tells you how gig tripping is now a thing thanks to Taylor Swift. Fans are traveling to see Taylor Swift. Multiple concerts.

Yeah. Never been done. Like I saw that she was performing, but it's in a city that I don't live in. There's got to be a way for us to get there. I can't believe this is a real story that, TravelMationGuy, he literally just woke up yesterday, like he was born yesterday. Oh no, no, TravelMationGuy, this is his business.

He sells these trips and so he's like, this is a great news story and then he found some reporter that need to fill a copy. So like I've got a scoop for you. My business is doing very well. Would you like to write about it? It's a good scoop. I was reading this as the Arthur meme,

just shaking my fist. Very mad. Like, god damn it, she invented everything. Well, no, Minci actually invented gig tripping. That's true. That's true. In two ways. Yeah.

Yes. All right, here's Monday reading number two. This is from memes Boyfriend 28 male keeps sneaking plastic food onto my 25 female plate Okay So we've been I can already tell you I'm on the guy's side. Yeah, so we've been together 14 months And he's a great partner overall. He has a stable respectable career that he enjoys nutritionist He's very caring in most ways. Wow. I didn't even I skim this the fact that he's, nutritionist. He's very caring in most ways. Well, I skim this, the fact that he's a nutritionist

makes it even funnier. And he's doing this. He's very caring in most ways. We have similar goals for our lives, but he's gotten odd sense of humor sometimes, especially about one particular thing. He has access to a seemingly unlimited supply of plastic foods and he keeps sneaking

them onto my plate at meals. I saw the humor in it the first time. Plastic scoop of cottage cheese replaced my real cottage cheese at breakfast, but I have lost count of the number of times he's played this prank on me. There have been plastic turkey slices on a sandwich, a plastic chicken tender coated in buffalo sauce at a restaurant. You sneak it onto her plate? This guy's awesome. Even a plastic deviled egg, swap it at my friend's wedding. Okay, so without seeing the plates of food, I kind of have to blame her. If you're this easily trickable. Yeah, what are you a Labrador retriever?

This is this is a trick that you could play in your dog quite successfully on your girlfriend Who's what 25 years old 25? I'm questioning her eyesight the Sandwich is the only one I'll have her back sandwiches up something in the sandwich. That's kind of fucked up Yep, it would be yeah, all right But I think the one that irritated me the most was when he wrapped a real banana skin around a plastic banana and put it back with the rest of the bunch on my counter. He says he just means it as a little joke when I've asked him to stop, but I'm getting paranoid when I eat with him. What if he takes it too far and I choke on a fake cheese cube? The weirdest

thing is I don't know where he gets these. As I've seen his bank statements, there's no indicator he's buying them himself. Okay, so what you're gonna wanna do is go deeper into his bank statements and don't look for prank things that he's purchasing at a joke store. The man has a 3D printer. Yeah.

I think he bought a 3D printer just to fuck with you. Not only that, but you kind of said it at the beginning, he's a nutritionist. Isn't he probably making videos where he's like, this is what you shouldn't eat? He might be, but if it's plastic, again, with a banana, he put a fake banana in a real peel and you saw it and you were like, oh, this looks like-

Yeah, I agree with you. It's gotta be, you gotta pay more attention to your food. Also, I like this guy because he knows the art of comedy. He knows that it's funny the first time. Then it's not funny for a really, really long time, but it will get funny again. It gets funnier the less funny that it gets. Yeah.

And he's still doing it. Yeah, and if he, it makes him laugh, isn't that like, what are you gonna stop him from finding joy?
