He is actually going to eject a fan. Because bad things happen in Philadelphia. Bad things. Joy it is to come to Philadelphia and stand here at Dodge Ice Ball. Dallas Town Boys. Head of Smy. John Cooney. And we're live.

Look at that. Look at that. It's been a minute since, well, you had a power outage 20 minutes into the last time. It was embarrassing. That's all right. Missed out. Did you listen to that episode? Not yet.

It missed out on my flawless. Arnold, which I'm not even going to try to repeat. They were actually like, wow, Tom, actually you didn't fuck that up. I don't believe that that's true. We'll go if you don't believe and you're not a patron, you go to our Patreon.com, so that's $2,000 losses

and pay $1,000 for it. Or go to batting around and pay for $5 for it. Which is crazy. Yeah. We probably should like cap the $1 at this point. It does not matter. I'll tell it right out. It doesn't matter.

I remember when Bobby was on, he's like, Yeah, we recommend Patreon. Patreon, Patreon only have $5. Take your floor. Take your, take your, take your, take $120 a month and get out of here. Yeah. But, you know, breaking news that we're recording, what, two weeks, a week, a week and a half after? So, you know, breaking news.

Yeah, just delayed. Broken news, if you will. Is LeBron's taken his talents to Philly? incredible that's insane I got it got it got it

I can't I can't wait for like the three games that Lebron Embed Maxie

Eschcom and Jaylen Brown all play together and Jalen Brown will be together yeah the three minutes in the entire year

that that's going to happen yeah yeah I mean A fuck you yeah so my thoughts on the LeBron signing. Sure.

I renounced my Boston Celtics fandom. So I was talking to Corinne about this, and I was like, the team that I cared about and most recently won a title doesn't exist anymore. Because Browns on the Phillies. Browns? The Phillies. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the Phillies. He could take good. Fuck you.

So I was just like, you know what? I'm all in on the Sixers. Who gives a shit? I, you know, because, like, they traded to Marcus Smart and they got rid of all these guys that I liked. And, you know, and then the Kyrie Irving trade. And they got rid of Porzingis and they got rid of Al Horford. And I was just like, all right, I don't care. Like, I don't recognize any of these guys.

I don't give a shit about them. I'm not meaningfully invested in them anymore. Yeah. All they have is the cool. I mean, I will give it to the Saltings of the Sick Jersey in colors. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I just, I think a lot of it. I have said for a long time since, not since he was.

was drafted, but a couple years after, it was clear that they were trying to make it Tatum, then Brown, then friends. Right. I was like, you should trade Jason Tatum. I have said that. I've said that on this podcast. It's that to my wife. They should trade Tatum.

And then they didn't. And now the Celtics have Paul George and Jason Tatum and who gives a shit, right? So I'm very excited about LeBron and Philly. I will say, a couple things. if this season does not end in a championship, it is a failure. Yeah. Not at least a finals appearance. No, no.

I was going to say follows appearance. No, it has to win. They have to win a ring or it is a failure. They have to win a rate. Well, he's got a two-year contract, right? Right. But they have, right. So you have this year next year.

Yeah. You do not want a ring in those two years. We have failed. It's over. Tear the team down to the studs. Yeah. Yeah. Sign, sign me and Tom's 10 days. No problem.

Yeah. I can dribble with my right hand. and my left hand a little bit. I can't cross over though. Better than Jalen Brown. Number two. Even though my legs are long. If I hear, and my wife's not here because she's at nails,

you hear one more fucking person. Tell me, this is the process working. No, it's not. It's a free agent signing. The process is over. It is done and dust. There's one guy. It's in B.

That's it. That's all that's like, well, you know, she's never going to listen. It doesn't matter. I'm shit talk or all I want. You know, it's like, she's like, well, like, this is proof of the, no, it isn't. Like, no, and I'm using my office. But like, I've seen this right. Like, oh, the process worked.

No, it didn't. No, it didn't. The process is over. Like, what? The whole point of the process, right, was to, in very brief summary, because we're not going to really let it in front of a third bonus episode. The whole point in the process was no one wants to come to a shitty team. So you have to get guys through the draft.

And the way to do that is to maximize the amount of high draft picks, right? That is the process. And then you will win a ring or be competitive with your homegrown talent and maybe attract another guy. Yeah. Maybe. So now the Sixers draft pretty well, all things considered. Recently, right? Edgecombe is good.

Maxie's a bona fide star. Joel Embed, you know, he, I mean, he doesn't have knees, but, but like, the frustration I feel is like, you know, they, these are not the teams they're running out in the process, right? We were running guys like Firk on fucking Korkma's. And then you look at the two, two, two number one overall picks, neither which are in the league anymore. Yeah. That the Sixers had. Markle Fultz and Ben Simmons. Ben Simmons.

Ben Simmons, yeah. And so I think that that speaks to a thing where you're saying like, oh, the process worked, no, it didn't. The process worked for one guy. And he was taking number three overall anyway. It wasn't like we redid what the Spurs did in the 90s. We were just hitting on dudes in like the 57th pick. Right. Yeah.

So it's like it's, and I'm trying to think of are any of the guys besides Embed on this team because of a trade from like we drafted the guy we traded i i don't was edgecombe and and maxi from from trades related to the process i don't know i don't know i don't think so let me look jelan brown's not brown's not he was he was taken in the um uh he went to cal i can't remember where he he was taken but uh he was it was a it was a trade i mean i mean i mean so maxi's taken 24 first overall. Yeah. Maxi was not a was,

was, I don't think of a process related pick. No. I could be wrong. I'm looking now because that was the 2020. I was COVID year. So, ah,

the Philadelphia 76ers from Oklahoma City via Philadelphia and Orlando. That may have been the, I'm, we're going to go. Oh, what trade was that? The Jeremy Grant trade.

Remember that? So that was the Markle Fultz trade. So like we traded a number one overall pick who didn't pan out for Tyree's Maxi, which like worked out, but I don't need to hear it. You know what I mean? Like. Yeah. And that wasn't the process.

The Markel Fultz thing was post-processed. That was when we were supposed to be good. Right. All right. So BJ Edgeco's picks number three. And people have argued that's the process. No, that was because Joel and Beechko's. was dead. Right. Right. That wasn't the

the process is a very specific time limited thing when what's his name was fucking the GM. Oh, Sam Hinky. Sam Hinky. If Hinky's not there, it's not the process. Right. I agree with that. I agree with that. Hang on. I'm trying to. So it looks like that was our own pick. Okay. All right. Who else we got? Who's on? Sixers. It wouldn't be. Yeah, like, I'd have to see who like the like the full team. Right.

I'm looking. Unfortunately, I have to go to ESPN.com because the MBA.com site is just cheap. The rest of these guys are not. Oh yeah, we have Contavius Caldwell Pope again. Not again, but we have Contavius called Will Pope,

who signed a veteran minimum. Yeah. So none of these guys are like, yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's it, right?

Like, we have a white guy again. Yeah, Dean Wade. Yeah. These are not, uh, these are, this is not the process. Like, this is what frustrates me. It's like, yeah.

I don't like, I lived those days. I remember, I remember seeing some real hideous basketball. Yeah, wasn't that a, uh, a single digit win? No. 9.73. No, that's, that was, um, 9 and 73. That wasn't the process, was it, though? Yeah, that was it.

Was it? No, it was the 10-win season. I think 9 and 73 was... You're right, I think. That's Google AI making up something. Let me look at process years here. Yeah, 10 wins. 10 wins into 2015.

So we're going to read some process picks because we're getting mad now. Yeah. All right. So Jerry Colangelo, Britt Brown and Friends. Okay. I'm going to read you some names, and you tell me if they're good or not.

Yeah, let's hear it. Nerlin's Noel. Is he still playing? No. Michael Carter Williams. Oh, wow. I think he's not still playing. No.

Arsuland Kazami Naini. I don't remember him. He played for Oregon and Rice. He was like the 54th pick or something in the 2013 draft. He plays in the Iranian Basketball Super League. Oh. Iranian? Yes.

Oh, hell. Yeah. Okay. We're not going to do Spencer Hollis, who I met once at a liquor store, at my liquor store, actually. He was very tall. All right. Carter Williams, one rookie of the year, because somebody had two. Dario Sarich. Oh, Super Dario. Yeah, Super Dario. Yeah. With a 12th pick of the draft. Yeah. I think he's still playing, but not. Not in the NBA. No, he plays in the basketball Super League, whatever that is. Last year he did, though. KJ McDaniels. Oh, wow.

Is he still playing? This is actually really fun for it. Jeremy Grant, still in the league. Jeremy Grant's still playing. Jay McDaniels to the Grizzlies. Is on Pilita Pallita Haya, no, Jaya of Indonesian basketball league. Okay. Jordan McCragg.

Oh, wow. I'm, we're remembering some guys. He's not playing anymore. He plays in Israel, so. Holy shit. He plays in a whole bunch of. Hapolet Tel Aviv. Hang on.

He plays with Vasily Vasa Mietchech, who is Serbian. It also plays with Halpol Tel Aviv. It's kind of fun that they play on the same thing. Hopol, Hold on, B.C. What? Oh, yeah, I might forget try to pronounce it. It looks like a tiger coming out of a ball. Okay.

So I'm trying to do like what the, so just these are, we're just rumors guys. Luke Mabuamutei, if you remember him. Doesn't play anymore. Although that's not, that's not really fair. Yeah. I would say that it's not really fair because he got, he was, he was drafted a lot. Yeah, he got drafted by the process.

He's like, he drafted in like 2008. Okay. Javelle McGee, remember him? He plays for the Beijing Ducks. Sick. That's cool that they named them the Ducks. All right, we're getting, we're getting to some good guys. Uh, Joliel Okofor.

Mm-hmm. Of course. Well, I think we still have the rights to technically. He plays for Levanga Hokado of the B League in Japan. Ah. Mm-hmm. J.P. Tokoto. Uh, he plays for Start Lublin of the Polish Basketball League.

All right. 10 and 72. God damn. Sam Hinky and his insane, uh, an insane resignation letter is April 6th. It was 10 years ago, April 6, 2016. It's not the fucking process. We're not done yet. We're covering some guys.

I know we have a mailbag episode, but I'm bored. My wife's not home. So we're going through some guys. Yeah, no, it's fine. It's the fucking doldrums of summer, man. Ben Simmons. All the time in the world. Yeah, Ben Simmons.

Number one overall pick, Ben Simmons. Ben Simmons. Not in the NBA. Currently, we're in the Bahamas fishing right now. Yeah, I think so. What's he doing now? Timotee La Wahoo Cabora. He was drafted 24th by the Sixers

He plays in Spain for Real Madrid actually Furkan Korkmaz With the 26th pick That's a first rounder The Turkish He plays He plays in the Turkish basketball Super Leaguey Remember that is

Markle Fultz Currently in the G League with the Raptors Is he really still? He's still trying man He's still trying to God bless. Hey, listen. Respect, respect, you know. And then we had the Jimmy Butler trade.

I heard Markell Fultz and Ben Simmons are working on their three-pointers. We had Tobias Harris, who's now on the Spurs. Yeah. Bobon, who I will never bad talk on this podcast because I love him. We traded. Here's some more process, guys. Wilson Chandler, on the league. Mike Muscala.

Oh, yeah. Not in the league. Well, he is in the league because he's a coach for the sodans. Oh, nice. Landry Shamit. Oh, yeah. You might know Landry Shammit as a bench guy for the current NBA champion New York Nick. So good thing we didn't hold on to him.

Josh Richardson, remember him. Al Horford. That one year or two years? Yeah, double agent. What was the guy with the peanut allergy? Who cares? No, because he was a, he was a, he was a, He was, it wasn't Markle Fultz.

Who was? Sixers Peanut Allergy. This is a stupid Google trade, Google search. Zaire Smith. Zaire Smith. Zaire Smith. That's a guy you missed. Yeah.

So here's the thing with him. He was drafted by the sons. Yes. And traded to the Sixers. For McAil Bridge. McCall. McAle Bridges. Local guy, Nova guy.

Yeah. Who is, again, an NBA champion just not on the Philadelphia. That we, I thought the process was, that was a dumbass trade. We blew that trade. Yeah. All right. He lost, Zaire Smith lost 60 pounds. Yeah, don't do that.

Because of a near fatal, he ate Thai chicken. It was sesame allergy. Yeah. Damn. Okay. I wish I could get that out. Six years ago. Six years ago.

Doc Rivers is the new coach and Daryl Moore becomes president of basketball ops. In my opinion, this is the process error is done. We're done. The six years go 49 and 23 clinch the Eastern Conference in the first time in 20 years and then they lose in the second round to the Hawks.

You'll remember that Ben Simmons passed on the open dunk to tie the game. Yes, he was scared. He literally pans to back out. And they find him allegedly in excess of 19 million United States dollars. For that. Really? I didn't know that. Yeah.

Oh, let me look this up. Ben Simmons fine for passing out. Why do he do that? Because he could dunk. Well, here's the Yahoo article that I'll link you to. There you go. Yeah, who.com only. Was this what he was trying to hold out?

Yeah. Yeah. Because he wanted, he wanted the trade? Yes. Hang on, I'm not done yet. We're remembering some guys. Oh, we keep going. James Harden and Paul Millsap.

Oh, yeah. We've talked about currently in Cleveland. Hell, Paul Millsap is not in the league anymore. We got, we traded Andre Drummond, who is still for, is on the next. Seth Curry, not on the NBA anymore. We traded Danny Green and the 23rd pick for Danney Melton. who you will notice is not on the team anymore. He is on the Warriors.

We got Jalen McDaniels in exchange for Matisse Thibel. Oh, Matisse. Matisse Thibel. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I kind of liked him until he found out that he was like an anti-Vax guy. Yeah, he's like, but not a right-wing one. He's like a granola one. No, they're all granola freaks.

Jalen McDaniels is not in the league anymore. He was on the Wizards at one point. Doc Rivers is fired and replaced by Nick Nurse, who is still our coach. We traded James Harden, P.J. Tucker, and whoever Philip Petrusev is, for Marcus Morris, not in the league anymore. Robert Covington, Roco, also not in the league anymore. And Nick Petum, if you remember him, also not in the league anymore. Paul George, not in the league, not on the Sixers anymore. Kyle Lowry just

just retired like last year as a raptor. Eric Gordon, no longer in the league. We're really a last chance ranch for a lot of guys. Yeah, now we have Jalen Brown and LeBron James. Yeah, and that's how we just... LeBron's probably going to retire after

especially if he gets a ring. If he gets a ring, he's definitely retired. It's over. Yeah. And it's um i mean obviously it's good for the team he's still a very good player um it's i mean i do think genuinely like like i said like i firmly believe that either this team wins a title sometime in the next two seasons or you blow up the thing entirely yeah and and it's a good it's a good core five. The problem is I have the problem I think is that

Indeed is I mean I think if they win a ring this season he retires too. I mean I fucking would I mean how long does he have left on his contract?

I don't know I don't I don't sell my money no like but him he would want his money um Joel the Prost and Bid contract hang on the um

contract I mean having having LeBron. It's through 28, 29. Okay. Yeah, I could see him like... That's a player option though, so... Yeah. I could see him wanting to be like his whole career, one...

Like, he gets the ring, you know, finish his career, one team. I can see him wanting to do that. Yeah, of course. He's a Philly guy. I mean, I, you know, I do think for better or worse, Philly teams hold on to guys. Yeah. The...

I mean, what's... nice about LeBron is that it doesn't have to be you don't have like he feels that big man even though he's not as big as Embed right he still feels that big man role right a very high degree caliber play yeah you don't you don't have then Embedd having to play all that time because when we as last year you know because indeed took so much time off the year before right you know and had the surgery and all that he was much better last year they did a better job with load management. Yep.

And that's what it's going to be. And rightfully so, as long as you're doing it, playing them enough to win the games. Because that's really, that's really all that matters now in the NBA is that you got to get into the playoffs. And once you get into the playoffs, then you can have your, your guys. I mean, Embed was playing injured and played for his fucking life. He always, he always plays. He doesn't, he's not a, he's not a shirker.

Like, he's not, Ben Simmons, he clearly his art sign in that. Right. And B, he's a gamer. He'll go out there if he dies, right. Yeah, he's on the court. He's going to fucking play. Right. And, yeah, so, I mean, I'm optimistic. I think, obviously, how could you not be? It's going to bring a lot of dumb media attention with that it all brings.

As I don't really give a shit about LeBron James outside of him being a good basketball player. Right. I don't care about his charter schools. I don't care about his, like, the image that he creates, it's all manicured, and I don't care. He's going to be taking a helicopter. don't like him taking a helicopter though let's not have him do that just live in Malvern dude like

do you know how many people live in fucking New Jersey and community of the city that they're sports players there's it's have all the eagles yeah they all fucking live in my Haddonfield area like yeah that part of Jersey or they can live in Morristown the good part

yeah like where where are you going to what do you got to do so bad in New York City but again that's like his media shit that's a media thing right it's his media shit but wait

let's do the intro hello welcome to 10,000 losses the only LeBron James on the Sixers podcast that exists I'm your host on Payman maybe maybe is my co-host yay fuck you

is yay fuck you is yay fuck you yay Liam hi my name is Liam hi my name is Liam McAnderson my pronouns are he and him as well yeah no guests We did just do a bonus with the batting around. You're in there for 20 minutes.

I listen to the whole thing. Yeah, you're in there for a little bit. You're a sweetheart, Tom. Oh, I had to make sure, you know, it was safe. But yeah, no, thanks to Jane for editing it too. But yeah, no, it was, it's fun. It's a wide-ranging discussion. It's mostly we just started talking about ethnic whites, which so many of things that I'm involved in our group chat, just devolve into various stereotypes of ethnic whites.

It's true. Yeah, go listen to that. It's on our feed. It's on their feed. Voicemail, call in 267371-7171-7-218. Give us your name and pronouns. Or you can text that number as well. Or you can go to Patreon.com slash 10,000 losses.

You can also get access to our Discord. you can message us on there. We have a podcast mailbag on Discord. So that's, I will be getting into that in a little bit. Now, we talked about the Sixers for probably the most outside of a bonus

in a long time. But Phillies, let's, so we traded a couple prospects for Luis Arise. Yeah. Who belongs here because he's insane? Yeah.

He's a very, he's going to fit in well with the Phillies. If you're not familiar with baseball too much, he's probably the best pure hitter in the league. I mean, he has the batting title. He's in the top

three or four for the batting title every year. He was in four, like, three or four years ago, he was in 400 until like into June. Like, he doesn't strike out, he doesn't walk. He just hits. He just hits. Footes in play, at least. Yeah, and, and Kruk says he reminds him of Tony,

when they still know Tony Gwynn was like he was like a singles machine but hey we need a guy who can fucking reliably put the ball in play that's a big problem that you're bad balick ohm i almost said alec bomb alec bomb is more like alec bomb yo get the fuck out of here um alec bohm hitting cleanups like dude get the what are we doing but uh and and his debut yesterday he played well i mean he his first his first hit was an r v i single so But now we have a very convoluted defensive shift. So he's a second baseman. Yeah, he plays second base.

It's so weird. Bryce Harper's in right field, Alec Bowms at first base. And Price decides over a third. Yeah. Every city, baby. Yeah, Stott, I would say would be, I mean, hey, Arise, he's not super speedy. So I guess it's less ground to cover over at second, but I just thought doesn't really have that a canon.

I mean, Trey Turner is not a very good shortstop either. To be fair, defensively. He's not. He's not very good. Stott wouldn't be that much better at shortstop. Look, the way this team's constructed,

as long as you're putting the runs in, that's really, we're not at like, fucking 2010 Philly's level of defensive incompetence. But. Big butt there. Because Bome actually has been not horrible effort. He's not saying he's good.

Not horrible. Whatever. He's not a fucking vacuum cleaner over there. He doesn't hit well enough to make up for it. But, and Harper, you know, Harper's a decent. he obviously hasn't played in the out for the while but he can't play outfield

he's not super slow we so I mean yeah I'm glad that like that was a good like guy to get we also traded for another reliever too

in that trade and I drawn a blank it was uh Caleb Killian I don't I'm not too familiar with the guy

he pitched last night you did all right yeah yeah I didn't watch the whole game last night I did. But, yeah, really bottom of the bullpen relievers are sort of fungible. Yeah, they're all, they're interchangeable.

Yeah, we got, you know what we do have to talk about. Brooks, really? No. Yeah, we can. Yeah. We got to kill our Nola, man. We got to. Nola is hot ducky.

He's. I think I was saying this. Welcome to the RAV's second inning because now. Yeah, he's not. Yeah, he's not. Yeah. Maybe we just put him, like, like, find a way for him to just blow up in like a simulated game. And then he gets it out of a way or something like that.

He's, he's definitely not, he's on the decline. He's just not, he's not fighting this pitch is very well. He's got a 5-5-5-5-ERA right now. That's good, right? Pires better. Yeah. Oh, that's not as bad as Jose Alvarado's got like seven something right now. But.

Let me worry about it. And I will say, Nola has, I mean, he, early on, he was kind of a low ERA guy. And I'm looking at his stats. Yeah, last year was worse, but at least he doesn't have negative war this year, which is interesting. It's time for him to die. Sorry, but you got to die. How many years he has left? We signed through 2030.

You got four more ears. Like I said, Philly sticks by their guys. Ride or die, baby. I like how the name of his high school was just Catholic high school. Oh, Louisiana. Yeah. It's just, yeah, I went to the Catholic high school. In Baton Rouge.

Man. Brothers of the Sacred Fart. Yeah, LSU. Let's say go tigers, but spell it with. with EAUX. Yeah, who else? One to LSU. Who?

Ben Simmons. For a year, though, right? Yeah. Yeah. First overall pick to not appear in the NC, who went to college to not appear in the NCAA tournament. Yeah.

He really, what is he doing right now? I mean, Ben Simmons. Is he going to try and play next year? I don't think so. tired. I think he has said, or at least hinted at, I want to come back to Philly.

Like this sort of winking acknowledgement. I have heard. I did do top stories. Philadelphia 76ers reportedly consider Ben Simmons reunion. This is from basketball news, Larry Brown Sports, Dunkist, Blog the Basket. I don't know how reliable this is. What if he does? I mean, fuck, it can't hurt, right?

Right. Oh, my God. Now he wants to back. Now he wants to fucking come back. Now he wants to play. I was right. Ben Simmons is the first college play in the modern era to be selected with the first overall pick

despite never playing in the NCAA tournament. Wow. Well, maybe that'll change. I want to go back to the Phillies. So I want to talk about Brooks really. Oh, the fuck face? So Brooks really

owns a gun store with his brother and you've only Texas Carly Texas. Brooks really is not a he is bad for a baseball player

when it comes to his politics. Which is incredible. He's trying to pull up the he opted out of wearing when he was on the raise yeah yeah on the raise um he's he's he's a pride night guy um

explaining a faith-based decision yeah yeah he's not a cool dude he he kind of fucking sucks the shame is that he's a decent pitcher he's a decent lefty pitcher um i he's a rental right um so he'll he'll be um he'll be a free agent this year but uh yeah yeah fuck him not a not a great it would be funny if Taiwan was still on the team those two would not would not get along in the clubhouse they would butt heads pretty pretty uh yeah

um well Taiwan has a gay brother um but um i miss Taiwan Walker I know he had a I know he had a DFA because he was horrible poop but and then he he did well in the minors for the angels the thing he uh I think they mutually parted he like use his his option or whatever to

bring out I want to play for the angels either fuck no that was um there was an article going around worst teams to play for it's got to be the angels let me find the article yeah um it's New York Times the athletic um

why is it the chart not working. Hold on. Let me allow JavaScript. It were foolish. Yeah. So, yeah, the angels, so which have a bad reputation on players is the Rockies, Pirates, Athletics, White Sox, Angels is fifth. Then Marlins raise. And then after that sort of narrow us out. But 28 out of 100, the 73 respond is 28 says, Rockies, which makes sense. Pirates make sense and athletics. It totally makes sense. But yeah, the angels don't give a shit. Philly's actually came in on the other side, which says, which is the best reputations of 93 respondents, 59 said the Dodgers, 38 said Yankees, 28 said Cubs, 16 said Blue Jays, 15 said Braves, and then Phillies and Mets are actually tied for six.

So, yeah, I think we have, I don't think we have a bad organization, but I don't think we have like an absolute shit show. We don't have the Dodgers. And like the people talk about like Tariq Skobal going to the Dodgers. This is ruining baseball. This is this is scores. It's like people want to go play for the Dodgers. Exactly. Not just because of,

of, not just because like, hey, it's like nice weather every fucking game. But you, they take care of people. Like they, they develop.

They care about the players. You know, they have a really good farm team. They trade away prospects. Like, like, and they still have good. prospects coming up.

There are a good organization. If you wanted to, like, wouldn't you want to play for the good organization has their shit together? You know, it makes sense. Like, who the fuck wants to, like, it's like, and then you have the same, like, well, it's not the same city, but like, you know, a half hour south by train. You have the angels. And like, no one wants to fucking go there.

no one wants to go there at all and yeah because of that is Disney still own them hell the angels no no they never did that they never did didn't they own them for a little bit in the docks the mighty decks of Anaheim

the Disney ever own the angels yes when 1996 to 2003 oh wow yeah you're right yeah 1997 yeah 97 already than the other

Gene Control the team Yeah So those are the teams Yeah So those are the teams What a shock The shittiest teams

Like Like I'm sorry Pittsburgh You deserve better You deserve better than nothing And notings Yep So Temple Al's

Let's talk about football Real quick Hell yeah We're playing Rhode Island as our opener. We're playing Penn State this year. We need to talk about that. Yeah.

About maybe going to that. I'm trying to. Let's let me look at the tickets. You have to buy them as part of a package. Do you? Yeah. As long as the other games are good. Yeah.

They're not. But no. I mean, that's okay. You don't want to watch. No, I do. East Carolina.

I mean, I kind of, I'd be okay. We know this about me. I'm fine. Watch it. The USF or Yucon game?

Let's fucking do it. It's the battle of the Anderson men. Yeah. Yeah, so we start off with Rhode Island, then Penn State at home. Then Toledo Army, South Florida. We'd be Penn State. Holy shit.

They're heavily weekend. We got to make a run. Well, it'd be, what's the Jackson Smolik? Their former backup is now the QB won for the Al's. Oh, good. So, um,

we got that going for us, which is nice. Al's, hey, listen, we, we won five games last year. We talked about this.

We talked about that. They were close. They were close. And, um, I, sorry, I spelled Jackson the normal way.

Yeah. Oh, no. It's, is it like three X's or two? It's, it's one X. One X.

Yeah. I, fuck. I can use him with Jackson, Dart. White quarterback's with Jackson with an ex. Yeah. They're also fungible.

I miss Evan Simon. He did not get drafted. I hope Evan Simon has a good career. Easy. And whatever. I wonder what he majored in. Yeah. Hope it was something good.

Like history or social work. But of the Butterfingers, Brock. Oh, yes. I'm sure he's. Well, he might still have eligibility left. This whole team. Yeah, go on. I looked at our friend Mike Gibson's blog.

That's our Temple Football Forever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And listen, I don't hate this guy. I kind of like, I like his dedication to Temple. Right. But he's discovered AI. Great. Images.

He's only used a couple. We have a guy on, we have a guy at safety called Poo Loughton. Yes, Poulotan. Isn't that a fucking sick name? Yeah. It doesn't even say Cedar or just says fifth. I love it. Oh, you got, we've got some.

So there's some dudes in this, all this team. Yeah. Fuck it, yeah. Temple to the Natty. Fuck it. Why not? Let's fucking go. Let's get that, let's get that on playoff bid.

Yeah, that's a reasonable thing to achieve for this. to him? As long as Jackson is wearing a cherry, not white helmet at Temple, he should put up big numbers. Those white helmets are bad luck. Yeah, so Mike Gibson, so this is my favorite thing. He's like a uniform purist. He doesn't like the white helmets.

Okay. He only likes any, he doesn't like it when we wear all the same color. Okay. So he wants red jerseys white pants. All right. I still can't help. because he actually does write like what he thinks about the team.

And we got an old liven from Tonga on this team. Oh yeah. What's his name? It's shit. He always becomes good in my NCAA. I love how some of these guys have been seniors because of the new eligibility rules. I have been seniors in NCAA football for like, since the first release, the 25.

Yeah, it's 25, 26. Peter. Who gives the shit? Peter Clark is like, you've been in college as long as I have at that point. He's a 13 year senior. I don't know if he's a grad student or not. He's from London too. Nothing matters anymore.

Who cares? So, so Mike Gibson gets mad whenever anyone says anything negative about the owls. So like, Athon sports. stuff about the hells. Right, but like, who aren't local? Like, like, when, like, someone, like, counts them out.

So, like, they got. Oh, yeah. When people, like, nationally are like, they're going to fill the link out. I'm just like, fuck you. Maybe we will. Yeah, like, Athon Sports is like Temple, eighth in the American.

Nope. Temple Natty. You know, and so he's like, yeah, let this. He's, it's, it's this old school. Yeah, let the, fucking, yeah, they can talk shit about us. But we're better than that. Right.

and you get in the locker room and hit your helmets together and you get pre-concussed. And he is on blue sky. I haven't looked at his stuff. I don't know what his politics are. I'm happy or not knowing, right?

I just know that he literally is like he will ride or die for Temple Football. It's better than we can say. I mean, listen, if Joe Paterno didn't, like that stuff didn't happen with Jerry Sandusky, I'd probably still be a Penn State fan. So, um, I listen, I emailed his kid the other day. Did you ever get a response for that? No.

No. I mean, they ignored it. They emailed me again, which is pretty funny, but. They emailed you after you said. They've emailed me three times, sir. They must not be actually. Like, no one's tracking like, hey, this is, we got like a, hey, you did little kids response. Your dad did little kids response.

Well, he didn't do it all the kids. He just didn't do anything about it. Oh, right, right, right. We tell the truth on this podcast. No, you're right. No, I was thinking Sandusky's son. No, it's, Joe Bertoneer's kid. It's been emailing.

He wants to be on WTOIP. Suck my dick and die. Do you know what? Fucking just arrange it. Just have them one. And bring the CFB boys on. Oh, yes. Sorry to Devin that you have to edit 10 people in a podcast.

all screaming all screaming hey so by the way your dad um is the reason that i think uh reason i have to if i change jobs i have to get every fucking school i ever worked at forgot about that yeah the act was act 162 or 62 i can't remember there's too many of them um oh there's another i'm going back to temple football forever cherry and white 1970 in front of temple stadium casey keeler would be rise to restrict the uniform helmet combo to above. In case anybody can't see, that's a cherry, not white helmet. Ross Mangiardo is holding. So it's got to do it, right?

We have a Central Bucks. We have a Central Bucks East Kid on the team. Pat Keller. And Council Rock North, though. Oh, shit. That's fucking go, guys. That's fucking go. All right.

That's your Temple Outlook. The first game, Temple Rhode Island is Oh my God I have to keep adding qualifications I'm deep in the Temple Temple Football Statistical Leader Wikipedia page sorry about that

September 5th so we still got some time versus the Rhode Island ramps Oh So these are Bernard Pierce Yeah yeah yeah I remember Bernard Pierce Oh, the running back. Yeah. Where do they have that?

Record book? Yeah, it's, um... You really want to do remember some guys. Bernard Pierce is good, man! Let's see. He won a Super Bowl? He didn't, but the Ravens did. He was all the Ravens.

Record and fact book. How the 2026 Temple Alta built. How many guys were walk-ons? A couple walk-on. cons. None of them are really so. Brandon and Asariah. He's a starting

linebacker, I think. You got 25 New Jersey boys. 26 Pennsylvania boys. These are current sales. Yeah, let's let's sorry. I took a spoonful of that low gamma, the

crispy chili oil. Oh, okay. And it like burned my throat, but obviously I'm really burned. And it's like I can taste it. Delicious. All right. This stuff is so good. All right.

We have a ton of DMs. And let's let's get started. So we have LMG. So light machine gun in the Discord. Hey, Tom, Yeh, Link. the Canadian Baseball League is a league in Southern Ontario, which has nine teams. The team I will be focusing in on in this post

are the Toronto Maple Leafs. No, not those. The leaves suck balls. To remember this, they've hired former MLB all-star Yassiel Pueig in an attempt at a publicity stunt. No, whoa. Is he coached or pled? Let me read it.

All right. An effort which has failed. Puegg's hiring has failed not only in the sense that he hasn't made the team. much better. I guess he is playing. Oh, he is. Though he is one of the better batters on the team, but he has also failed to bring more paying customers to games.

He's also an alleged, in quotes, sex offender. He said out of court, which to me means he did it. To add the poor choice of- Oh, my God. I'm on Giaciel Puegg's Wiki, and there's a lot under legal issues. Oh, yeah. He is a criminal awaiting sentence for making false statements and obstructing justice. He could face time to the...

extent that he can miss the August portion of the CBL season. In an unrelated but interesting note, Pugueig has no reason to play for Leifes. Like seriously, none and all, he was paid $1 million. I don't know if that's U.S. dollars or not to pay for the key womb heroes Korean baseball in the 20-25 season. In contrast, the salary cap for the CBL is $30,000 Canadian per season. According to Pueg, the reason he's playing for the Leafs is out of his control. I'm not deciding nothing in my life anymore.

I can tell you exactly why it is. What is that? I can say because it's in Canada. And he's thinking they're not going to extradite. It's the same thing. Real quick. So the league blocked. So for those of you who don't know, Kauai Leonard was drafted by the Spurs.

And then there was something real weird with his quads. And he went to his trade, demanded a trade, went to the Raptors. And the Raptors, he went to the Clippers. The Clippers have traded him back to the Raptors. However, because Kauai is a subject of events. investigations with salary caps or convention during his time on the Clippers. The league has blocked the trade. And I have the sneaking suspicion that the Clippers were eager to get out of Dodge with Kauai and tried to get him to a Canadian team.

To least obstruct the investigation. Interesting. To finish LMG's DM. Anyways, fuck Penn State. Fuck Doug Ford. Fuck Bradford. Bradford, local politician jackass. Fuck yes, you'll bewig.

Fuck America. And critical support for the Toronto Maple Leafs, you know, Canadian-based quality. Which one? Sincerely Lucas. Lucas. Roses are red.

God lives in heaven. And Elise will still lose to Boston and seven. Okay. Man, yeah, you're not lying that. Oh, my God. That's a lot. Recklish.

2013, just real quick. Reckless driving. and speeding. 2021, sexual assault. 2022, lying to federal law enforcement officers

regarding Betsy placing illegal sports betting operations by that. 2026, found guilty of making false statements in the restructing justice. He could go to 20 years in jail. Judge Dolly M.

Gee, agreed to request from Pueig to postpone a sentencing to July 28th, give them more time. So I wonder what the sentencing was. So, Let's see. Let's see. Let me Google it. Delay, no. Let me see. Because that was a couple, that was a week ago, past week. I don't think anything right now. Judge Delays, sentencing, consider as much as no quit. What? All right. You don't know. All right. You want to read Charlie?

Yeah, hang on. I got to text. I'm just texting red. Yeah. Yeah, I'm good. All right. Let me get into character. can you do the noise hey toli hey leah from roxborough parentheses he had him closing up to johnny and doddy's wild rod

you got to be louder in the game I can't do that anymore in the game that used to be called the third place match France and England continued their

unething tool to the heat death of the sun these games can be a nil nill boring ball game between two teams just who just don't want to play the game anymore

or the NBA All-Star game Not the second one, but not at first. England will mostly Arsenal jump out to a 4-0-0 lead with a three-minute opener by Declan Rice, won by a constant, a brace by Saka. France will be completely stopped this etching core in the first half. Dictator Mboppe, Willed France almost level with a brace that gave him the golden boot, with Barcola with the second and three goals. Piccadilly will not have a guillotine with Saka getting a hat-rick off a late penalty.

D'embele got a fourth goal, but Bellium puts it away at the death, Iowa, six, Penn State, four. An actual final forces of relative good Spain took on Miele and the forces of, yeah, Nazis in Argentina. Argentina? Yeah, Nazis got fully out maneuver tactically by Franco. Nazis with the poor 0.17 expected goals in the full 120 minutes of the match. They did not have a shot on a goal for the show. The entire 90 minutes of regular time. The Franco was spent the entire match offensively bashing their head in to get the goal in the 90 minutes.

Just before extra time, Enzo Fernandez went Yellowstone. Buffalo, a Francoist player for his second. You know, not all Spain is there was Republican Spain, it's still part within the borders. I'm doing my jokes. You're doing, you're doing your type five. Messiazzias to speak to the vigil when we saw Kusarillo put a hand on his mouth for a second,

much like 2010, breathing deep here. Spain, remember how I, so we know this story, but the reason I hate the Dutch is because in the 2020 World Cup, I was a college freshman. I was an incoming college freshman. And I had a $500 bet in a pool that Spain would win or the Netherlands would win.

And they beat the and they lost the Spanish. And that's why I don't get them anymore. That's why you hate the Dutch. Much like the 2010 Francois did find the winner at the start of the second half of extra time with a goal by Fernand Torres. Baby Wash as man as the Francois win the World Cup and hold the men's and women's trophy like the world's Yukon. That's good Charlie. Johnny Baby and Donnie from Queens shuffled to hand out silver and winners, medals

and trophies. Donnie tries to do his two hand dance as the Francoas left the trophy. Much like 2022, sports is at Washington, the sins of the great state, and pedo in charge. Well, now that messy loss and cried about it, he'll take it out on the rest of L.S. unfortunately. As always, fuck Penn State, fuck Ohio State. Fuck Johnny Baby. Fuck Johnny, baby.

Fuck Nazis. And fuck Donnie from Queens. Yeah. And Infantino Johnny Baby, they were going to be like all the all the subsidiary like like the uef uh conca calf whatever they're like if you try and privatize the world cup like we are going to have our own you know instead blackjack and hookers and uh yeah so and he backed down but uh yeah get rid of that guy um all right we got roshin hey time yay liam i hate sports guardians continue to be dead now needing a twin style

deadline fire sale in addition to the Phillies fire everyone no one can fucking field the starters are throwing batting practice after time and they're now incapable of hitting with runners in scoring position i know what that's like but of course our useless front office will like clockwork stand mostly padded the deadline except for trading away half our top prospects will menace us for years to come hello junior camiero for more dead weighed quad a nobody's that we're headed for the way for wire in a couple weeks anyway or if we're lucky a completely wash has been we're basically a farm team for the rest of league at this point. Don't get your,

that's a little, that's the race. I don't know if you're at raise level yet. Not disappointed about LeBron going to the Sixers, chase that ring, however, I am disappointed, but not surprised giving the decision of your,

about all the bullshitting about Cleveland, even being anywhere near contention, and straining the cabs front office along, enough for them to do, fuck all on free agency, and anticipation of his return that was never going to happen with James fucking Hardin on the roster. Yeah,

I do hate the media circus shit that comes along with them. Again, like, fucking chill. The new banner at Huron, Ontario for this upcoming cap season should just be a massive Felford again award. One last note. Sorry.

One last note, I'll already fuck you to Ohio's Democratic gubernatorial candidate. Amy Acton for speaking out in favor of Ohio's transathlet band, repeating the boys and girls sports canard in her defense of it. The Ohio Department of Health under her leadership has also unsuccessfully argued in federal court against my right to amend the sex on my birth certificate

on which I beat the buzzer just before the great transphobic backlash June 22 to present. Way to throw your base under the bus and put punt away what could have been an easy win against fucking Vivek Ramoswamy. Go birds. Get your shit together guards. Fuck Kobe Obama. Fuck Paul Dolan.

Actually, two names that have been crossed out. So I won't say them. Fuck Jimmy Haslam. Fuck the Browns. Fuck Sophie Cunningham with the Indiana fever for showing her whole transphobic ass. Oh yeah. That's a whole thing.

Yeah, that's a question. She's a fucking bench player. Who gives you what she thinks? She averages eight points a game. Who gives a shit? I don't give a shit. Yeah. She's dumb as fucking rocks

And people are like Oh, it's the same shit with Riley against None of you people ever win fucking anything No It's always these losers Because it's like It's just a grift, right It's just a grift, right?

Yeah, it's just a grip. You suck at your sport You fucking suck at this. Like you're just bad at it And it's fine to be bad at sports. We're bad at sports. Yes. But like, like, my thing is like, listen, man

If a, if a, like There are, I think what the What it was as of the national band The NCAA band It was like eight transats. athletes. Yeah. It's like eight.

It was seven or eight. This is a, this is like the satanic panic, dude. It's not, it's not, it's nonsense. It's fucking nonsense. It's unbelievable. Like, I'm sorry. If, if you have made it 55 minutes and 48 seconds into the show and you don't know

that trans rights are human rights and that, uh, are pal Rochene, uh, as annoying as she is, uh, when she, uh, hijacks my podcast. Uh, her rights are non-negotiable. Her and Mike. Yeah, her. Mike's got to die. That's not the point. I will continue this.

Fuck the worst than useless Ohio Democratic Party. One more fuck you to Amy Action. Act and my human rights are non-negotiable. Fuck Ohio. Fuck America. Fuck Ohio State. And fuck Penn State. And fuck Jay Paterno.

And John, what? Fuck Sophie Cunningham. Fuck Sophie Cunningham a second time. You average eight points a game. You average eight points a game. You could be replaced by a dancing monkey and the team would statistically improve. Patrick has been on the show. He explained the whole fucking thing.

I think, you know, either in a phone car when he was on the time. He's not vomiting. Yeah. Yeah. We're getting stitches. The, they get his purple belt. So, this group chat is horrifying. Yeah.

So I have a funny story about that. So I have a Mac now. And that's my like, not my primary computer, but the one I use upstairs. And like, I place it on it. You know, it's my living on PC, basically. And, uh, I opened. I, I had done group therapy and I came downstairs. And because I don't check my text.

But of course, our group chat is an eye message on my, on my, on my, Mac and I opened I message because I had a bunch of decks and there is just Patrick's chin in like 4K and I'm just like what the just in the just in the

yeah I was just like I like turn the Mac to Corinna I'm like hey look and she's like hey how are you getting the group chat on the Mac what do you mean it's an iMessage but but it's it's not it's RCS I think what it is is that I have it pin specifically and I think pin chats work separately

If you have a Mac, try pinning the chat. I'm going to try to do that. Because I have a group chat with, with Megan, Corinne, and Jay. And Jay has an Android phone. No op-sac for Jay Satay on this show. And that shows up till. And I know that my...

Braz has an Android phone and I get his text on my Mac. All right. I'll get to figure that out, but... But what I was going to say is... This might have been like two years ago, But you talked about like when when when when when when someone takes hormones. So so when you're true if you're transitioning from male and female and you take the female hormones. Mm-hmm.

You don't have the same like body anymore. You don't have like like oh, you're worried about oh, a boy's going to play in a girl sports. Like well, you know, chemically it's the this kid is whoever it is, they're not a man anymore. They're a woman, right? And they're not like wherever you're worried about like muscle or whatever. That's been handled through the fucking hormones. Well, on top of that, right, and I don't want to do the argument that, like, oh, well, gender, you know, straight people get gender reassignment or gender affirming surgery, too. And, like, because I don't really like that argument.

I find it gross because it makes it, like, it feels to me like trans people can't stand on their own merits if that makes sense. Sure. Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah. But, like, we didn't ban Michael Phelps for having a distinct competitive advantage. Right. Right, for other things that, but for some, by that logic, we should ban anyone in the NBA over 6-6, right? Like, like, tall guys are going to be, or volleyball, are they going to be better because they're taller.

You can't be, you can't be a fighter pilot. You're six or seven. Where does it stop? Like, you know what I mean? It's just, it's stupid. It's just, and I know that we're asking a rhetorical questions, but like, you know, okay, 59 minutes. I'll give you a five second warning. 59 minutes and 30 seconds.

If you are transphobe, I invite you to go to your nearest gun shop. Buy a Sauer P226, six sour P226, please. Jump up in there. Hang on. Put it and fire. Probably be satisfactory. I just say, just. And then if you have anyone who loves you, which I doubt, mail it to me.

I'll take your, I'll take your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, you're. and, like, try and get out of your car and it'll shoot you to like just buy it. It'll just shoot you in the leg for you. hair like 2-2-6 is the gun that's killing cops by accident right? Yeah, it's doing it's doing it's doing practice. It's not a,

it's not a Glock that's doing it by the way. I don't like Glock's though. I don't like Glockes though. They're good. They shoot so well. They're good. It's like they're the AR of the but I don't like Glockes.

Oh, you want to, yeah, you want to get an AR chambered in 300 blackout? Oh, are you now my wife? You want to get married? You want to get married? Oh, up. You want me to fight your wife right now. No, you want to get married?

That's fine. She would fuck you up. She would fuck you up. She's 5.5. My wife would fuck you up, I'm saying. Your wife would also fuck you up. Nah, she's tight hands. Yeah, but.

She doesn't have tiny hands. She has huge hands. So again, criminal never listened to this. My wife, so we were at the basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, right? And they have like an exhibit, which is really cool,

like a wall where all these basketball players have their hand prints cast. So you can compare hand size. My wife has the same hand size as Steph Curry. My wife is five, six, and three-quarters. She is. She's too, yeah. She probably, it's like she can get in the lane and disrupt some passing.

Truckosaurus. Anyway. All right. Yeah, Liam. Plus man, wiki here with another enaball at the day. The AF1, oh boy. Here we go. The F one, the so-called.

Liam bless themselves. It is actively imploding before our very eyes. Oregon bailed come June. Oceanside was sold and rebranded as the ocean-side stealth. What? Mid-season, Beaumont has been on fumes after their new racist owner pissed off his business partners for NFL players Dietrichs, senior, and junior. And finally, Kentucky, despite the owner buying a failing Corpus Christi team that went in over its head on high profile, parentheses expensive, close parentheses talent last year, proceeded to the exact same mistakes this year and results in them limiting to the playoffs of scabs.

The Washington and Wolfpack are pissed. They stepped into a decent team this year just to lead to all but abandoned the West Coast with solutions being an oceanine scene. They've played once in a 12 game regular season that are proposed Stockton, Crusaders. We don't make fun of spelling. No. Are they, we're using the team crusader, the term crusaders in 2026? Yes.

Do we remember talking about this? Because did you see the, it might have been before vacation. Oh my God. I went to Europe. But did you see the logo? No. I don't think so. Send to me.

Let me pull up. It's obviously chat GPT. Of course it is. Like it doesn't even like line up. It's not even. Right. The eyes have slightly different shape. I got it.

Oh, wow. Yeah. All right. Moving swiftly on. I mean, Holy Cross is still the Crusaders and it's 2026. And they're Jesuit, so they should know better. So it's like, no. Lansdale Catholic is Crusaders too.

I know a couple of people until Lansdale Catholic, and they are domestic abusers. Oh. I know one who's not. Nah, I mean, if you go to Catholic school, you're not a good person. Probably not. I mean, if it's like, well, yeah. And someone else we know. Yeah.

I mean, like, half our patrons at the North Catholic tier level. Also, Corinne. Also, you. Also, Ross. Also, my dad. I didn't know your dad went to Catholic school. 12 years, baby. Oh, okay.

Yeah. BC prep and then Marion. Oh, hell yeah. Went to school with a teacher who blew up on the challenger. Expansion has, oh, Michigan or Piss because your ex-Google exec owner spending 40% over what the league promises his expenses would be year one. Expansion has ground to a halt with all this drama. Sure. supposedly Stockton will finally be real next year and there's a new Austin team,

mm-hmm, that plans on joining just as Beaumont dies. But they have lost an Alabama team to cheaper AAL and the T-A. What is, oh my God, Arkansas-darmine. Ozark Lunkers were discussed with Albany's refusal for a cost-cap talk and are instead talking to the IFL. Oceanside, Beaumont and Kentucky are rumored dead. Oregon is gone. Michigan and Washington are rumored to be talking to the AAL and IFL and rumors have service that the commissioner, Jeff Fisher, who boy.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, which Jeff Fischer's? Remember the coach, the 7-09, 7-09, 7-9, 4. forever? Jeff Fisher. Yes, that one has his national cats with one foot out the door already. Shit's fucked. In Albany and Minnesota are just too stubborn to see it. Fuck him fascism.

Fuck ICE. Fuck MAGA. Fuck MAHA. Yeah, fuck RFK Jr. I hope that guy just dies on fire and fuck assholes in general. You might be out. Yeah. I've said before that obviously ICE's policies are very, very, very like ICE is horrible,

and MAGA is horrible. But MAHA is going to have some long. term downstream effects. Insidious stuff. With the measles outbreaks and shit like that, that is, and it's going, brain drain.

All right. I already know. For sure, yeah. I already know. Now I have a family member who's like, I might be able to go do science in Canada. Right. Because.

Yeah. Yep. Although that doesn't mean I might possibly also get by Canadian citizen. I know. I know. You're very interesting. Oh, Canada. Our home in native land

True patriot love that all thy sons command It's in all that sons command I just remember from like NHG-GGEL I'm trying and free Oh Canada we what Something for the We stand on guard for the God keep our land glorious and free O Canada of Canada I stand my guard for thee

I remember I made a skeet about that Like it's like to the camp cross. The on the shores of big snake lake. Like it sounds like a fucking camp song. I know. Okay.

But anyway. We took the stars like a banner or melody from a drinking song though. So we have no one. What's the Quebec Y anthem? Who gives a shit? Read the next one. I have to go pick up benches.

We have three voicemail. We have three voicemail. Three voicemails too after this. I know. All right. I'll do it. Hey, Tom, Yee Liam here.

Pronouns he him. They fucking done it. County Mayo after 75. years are all Ireland champions again in the Sam Maguire Cup is going the Castle Bar. They started slow at the gate, but once they got their game behind the two-point arch, they got back in and started the command of the game. Seemed everyone outside of

Kerry was hoping for them for hoping, was hoping for them to. Finally, end the drought and they've done so. Up the Mayo, fuck fascist, fuck Penn State. If you've never watched the All-Ireland Final, go watch it. It's like Irish Irish was Irish Gaelic football, right?

Is what they call it? It's fucking awesome. It's great sport. Watch it. Also, we get another message. All right, not from Wayne. RJ. Hey, Liam, RJ, he, him. I need the worst takes you can provide.

I've mentioned in the Discord about my wife's death about four months ago. Sorry for that. Thing it on her, I put a Philly Fanatic Garden flag on a grave. This was early April. A week later, I thinking I'd reverse the bad vibes. I switched to Fanatic for an Eagles logo. It didn't work. Topper got fired anyway.

Now that Eagles training camp is upon us. When I switch back, when do I switch? back to the fanatic. I want to minimize the bad luck to both teams. Even if the pre-superiors my wife seems to imply this is pagan behavior in a recent homily. Feel free, well, why is he singling you out in the homily? That's not chill. Feel free to use

the most irrational ass poll Religion Wu, opening a dictionary to ran the page in your answers. Mayo for Sam, fuck autoimmune diseases, fuck Penn State, fuck Ohio State. The worst takes I can provide. Well, first off, I was just doing takes. or?

Well, I think the second part of it with the flag thing, why don't you just switch as a temple? Yeah, it doesn't matter. And then that way it doesn't affect anybody. Or I think what you do, I'm ruminating on this. Yeah. Is you don't switch, you don't, you cannot go back to the Phillies. Yeah. You cannot go back to this.

And you can't go. And I think you can go to the Eagles. You can keep it at the Eagles. Because, you know, The season will be over for the Phillies at the latest, what, October? Yeah. You know, when they win the World Series. Which is going to know.

We've always said that. And the Eagles will be like three weeks into the season. I think that's when you do it. Other than that, I would put a flyer slag in because who gives a shit. But I think you want to honor your wife because presumably you loved her, one hopes. So I think that you do the Eagles flag and you hope that it brings us good luck. Yeah. I listen, man, I go to Mass during the playoffs.

As we know, the Eagles won a Super Bowl because I made a deal with God. I know we're irreligious here. What was the deal? What did you offer? I don't want to talk about it on air. Oh. I can make a joke If this was real life

If there was a joke I would make there But I'm not You can Let's hear it Your balls My ball No,

Oh, Well, part of it Part of it Oh, the surgery I had Yeah Where they cut my shit Smooth open? Yeah

Yeah Don't get ball surgery folks Yeah I'll cut that out No, you can leave it I don't care Okay Um

No, Liam still has balls I checked yesterday Thank you I have a little camera I'm like, right, let's tuck cough. In terms of pagan behavior would be you go there and you're like leaving an offering or some shit, which a lot of people do that anyway, graves. Oh, speaking of graves, speaking of cursed graves, but I'm not saying this grave is cursed.

At Doylestown, cemetery, there was a grave with the Ohio State logo on it. That was cursed. I fucking, I don't know. I don't know. What's the worst take you can provide? Let's just before we go to the next one. I mean, the worst take possible? The worst take.

Some of these might actually have to not be said because they would, I know some of yours. You know the weapons, the weapons. The one, right. Which is a thing I do earnestly believe. I mean, what's my worst take? I don't know. Fuck. my worst.

I mean, like, that's the, that's the big one, right? That, like, um, I, we, because like, there's, there's, the Soviets stopped too far east. I don't know. Yeah, right? Um, there's stuff I, I, I, I think are like, relatively like, I don't know, like, like, like, like that kind of thing? I actually do kind of have one. Uh, so I was in group therapy yesterday.

Um, um. And we were talking about religion. And the reading for that for last night was like from a religious text. I'm not going to suppose by which one. It doesn't matter. But a couple of the guys in my group were like, oh, I'm an atheist or I'm agnostic. And one of the things like, it's not even a hot take, but I was like the the Reddit atheism thing has leached so far into society that like it's it's not worse than organized religion because like of the way it's digitalized. And this is not the third thing.

But I do find, I think, you're median atheist, more annoying than your median religious person. Sure. Okay. That is actually a good, like, worst take. Because, like, if you think about it, it's a lot of large numbers there. Right. Right.

Because you meet more people who are sensibly religious. But I say, actually, I actually think most people who are religious don't actually believe it. They just are conditioned to it. They don't actually. Yeah. I think, I think you have 70% of America's Christian. I think maybe two-thirds of them actually don't have a sincere genuine belief.

I think the vast majority of people, and I think it looks different. Like what does, you know, when there's maybe a time for it, we could do this in a bonus, like a discussion of religion. But I do think for a lot of people, you know, is there like, I, you know, my dad believes in a deity, just not like a personal one, right? It's just like the lot, his belief is that God is the like mathematical equation that it's like. It's the creation of life, right? It's the small nuclear force or whatever. Right, yeah. I'm fucking it up.

But like, yeah. It's gravity and quantum physics and it's sort of pantheistic. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I think, I think, yeah, not to belabor it, in terms of like that they're, the, the, the belief in a eminent, like embodied deity that sits in rules and makes judgment and makes things right and stuff like that, I think. the majority of people don't, if you actually drilled down deep, they don't actually believe that.

No, I don't think so. I think a lot more people would be more theistic or pantheistic. I, and I think more it's about ritual than any of the. Ritual, right. I'm talking more, you want to be pagan. That's called orthopraxy, right? Which is right practice. It's like, you don't know what's in someone's head, what they really believe.

So who gives a shit? But I mean, that's, there's my, there's my worst. Because most people who are, I've met too many, I've met too many clergy that gave off atheist vibes or agnostic vibes. That's why I say, I'm agnostic. I don't really know. And it kind of really doesn't matter. Really doesn't.

I got to change anything. I think that actually might be a secondary hot take is that if you spend more than like five minutes a quarter worrying about if there's a God or not, you are worrying too much. If you're older than like 20s, 9, 30. Yeah. But if you're like, your 20s are for that for formulating that. Right. You know.

I mean, my, my genuine opinion is like God's not real. It also doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. It's probably not real. It would be nice. Either we get it right and nothing happens or we get it horrifically wrong. Man, going to hell anyway.

Past those rager. I don't believe there's, I don't believe. There's, that's like, that's like, I talk to people who are like our Christians. Like, I don't believe in this idea that there's like this super. There's like the super numinary deity that. Right. I do, I do like the, there's a, there's a thought in Judaism that God is presupposed to exist. So it doesn't matter if you, if you believe in them or not.

There you go. I also say if God is real and created me in his image that he created me with the ability to doubt. It would be a God that would create me with the doubts. knowing that I would have doubts, right? And then condemning me to hell for not believe, just believing is such an asinine prospect that means that this entire universe is ruled by by just an utter, utter lack of logic. And there's no reason for me to believe it anyway. Right.

So if it's all predestined who gives it, like, you know, so I don't accept. I don't accept it. I remember one time having this conversation was a very, very religious guy. And he was like, you know, laid at a conference. And he's like, I'm like, do you believe in Zeus? He's like, no, of course not. I was like, I believe, yeah, neither do I. And I don't, I feel the same way about your guy.

I just believe in one less than you, dude. Exactly. And he was like, it wasn't like, I'm like, I don't care if you believe. It doesn't bother me. But just like, understand that my lack of religion doesn't come from like, I hate God. Because that was the whole conversation. I was like, no, I just don't believe it in the same way. You don't believe in Zeus.

The same exact reason. Exactly. And he did think about it. He's an intelligent guy. So he thought about it. Anyway, let's go to metric mic. Hey, Tom and Liam, metric mic.

He him. The Columbus Blue Jack is announced for the 2026, 2027 hockey season. They will no longer have a separate radio broadcast or play by play by play and will just simulcast the TV audio on radio broadcasts.

How do we feel about using TV audio feeds used as radio broadcast audio instead of radio-specific broadcasts? I feel the play-by-play requires different approaches since you can't see anything happening in the game. Ohio. Fuck Amy Active for being a turf. Fuck the Ohio Dems for likely fucking the

state by settling with discount Elon Musk for governor. One, it's less jobs, so fuck that. Two, no. You need it separate broadcast for radio. You do. You need it. It's for the exact reason. So we're on your side, Mike. All right. And this is the last

messages from Roshin. Breaking, impending, Jimmy Dome, Cancer Cluster Update. Jimmy Dome will be having a turf field installed. Guardians far exceeded my deadlines expectations blowing off a master of fleece job on the rest of the league, acquiring a rental starter, Foster Griffin, reliever Craig Yoho, Alfordo Joe Adele, D.H. Nathan Lowe, and AAA outfielder Blake Perkins for a handful of paper clips, pocket, and a used napkin. Solid A minus deadline. Plug most of the gaming holes in our roster, but I only wish that what wasn't granted was a solid everyday first basement.

I rescind my prior fuck used to Chris Antonetti and Mike Chernoff in the time being new. They were the people who crossed out, yeah. They were crossed out. I like how this motherfucker spelled Wayne's name as Wave Do you see that in the notes? Oh, I do. Yeah.

All right. So we got Wayne and two Charlie voicemails. Then we'll be getting out of here because Liam's getting antsy. He's got to pick up the vegetables. Hey, Tommy, Liam. It's Wayne. Oh, now to see him.

Gone to confirm that I have indeed survived the World Cup, the World Cup at MedLife Stadium in North Jersey. worked a grand total of four out of the eight days, including the day of the final, which Spain won one-n-nill as Charlie recap. Transportation, oddly enough, didn't suck for anyone going to the game.

I mean, doing anything else trying to go from New Jersey to New York was a goddamn nightmare because of the garbage plan they had, saying screw the people that go to work every day, or just only catering to the people, the morons that paid $100 to take a train to the World Cup, which that showed, especially his Argentina fans, decided, you know, you know what, we're going to ignore everything he said,

and we're going to just run across Roger style across three. I did see that video. But anyway, the All-Ireland Hurling Final was yesterday between Gullway and Limerick. And Limerick showed why they maintained their dominance and their dynasty over hurling with a dominant win over Gullway who could not make a shot to save their life

and went back to worse when a player got set off for an errand stick to the face of a Limerick player. It was straight red. So, and Limerick now have won six old island titles since 2018. So that's an iron-clad hold on hurling in just Ireland in general. The football final will be next Sunday between Mayo and Carrie. Mayo obviously have a famous curse where they haven't won the All-Irlead Final since

1951. Good news. in Gaelic football history. So it's going to be interesting to see if Kerry continued their dominance or if they all finally pull like a Chicago Cubs style curse lifting and everything just sort of fabric of reality just disintegrates further. And as always, Joe Rutgers, fuck Fed State, fuck Donald Trump, fuck ICE,

and fuck Javier Malelli or whoever to fuck Bulls Argentina. I would say for the battle of the M18 there, which I've driven several times now, we are, Limer, congratulations. You now own Gort. So good luck with that. Good luck. Good luck with that. If you beat Galway again, you will now own Athenry, which I'm sure will make lots of people in County Galway sad. Okay, we got two from Charlie.

You ready? Yep. Hey Tom Yenley This is Charlie from Roxburgh He had Rechamping the goal Up the Union

They've resumed Taking on One win going into that Game They doubled their win total For all of 2026 And getting their first MLS win at home

3-1 over New York New York has a won a game in Chester since 2018 And that will continue To next year Early goals We're 4-4 and 10 this year. Nice.

Ripple defender crashing into former Evan Horvath in goal. Indiana Vassel. I've got a goal in the second hand. And making his debut after being sent off to the other Jay Sugarman-owned team, Lindenberg in the Danish now Super League. Nelson Pierre, the homegrown, got the third goal. coming off of the bench on a corner kick, a union that signed Birmingham left back. Oh.

I don't know where he was for Birmingham. He was only there a half now. Hopefully he doesn't say anything bad. Went to Seattle on Saturday. All right, Charlie, Charlie then comes in to, this is the most recent voicemail with more union updates. Hey, Tom, yay, Lee. It's Charlie from Rossborough. Oh, this is my clarity.

You have a road mic? games last week. Not much happened, the Union did get two in a row beating Seattle 1-0-0. Alasky got the lone goal in that is fifth straight. Basically, they got the goal in the second half and kind of

held on. Usually at the game, they would have at least drew or lost under previous times. And then tonight against Atlanta, United, the worst team in the league that they finally passed to be the second worst team in the league. Wayne must have been getting to shine.

in North Jersey because the union again bottled it being up a man. Decision is red cards for a stomp in the back of the Lanoowski's ankle. Immediately conceded off of a goal by Avaron, the guy that held his mouth in the World Cup, and had more of the ball, infinite crosses, infinite cabin stepovers that didn't really lead to anything. Then went into the 60th minute down two goals after conceding a second goal. and looked to be back in last place until Alonelowski got his sixth straight goal, chipping the keeper with a back heel, and seemed to still be tracking towards last place until Neil Pierre got his second goal of the year,

beating the keeper in the 90th plus six minutes of stoppage time. And then finally, Azigia Abdadola finally gets his first goal in MLS play. in the 90th plus 7th minute for the Union to win 3-2 over Atlanta They burned Atlanta down again For the millionth time Just

Good Would have definitely Before the break Definitely would have lost that game In Union news In Wausu Macalena Is going to rags So fuck him
