He is actually going to eject a fan. Bad things happen in Philadelphia, bad things. The fan jumped into the penalty box area. Joy doesn't come to Philadelphia and stand here and dodge ice balls. We, the Dallas Cowboys, head assessment, John Keene. And we're live. Again, although the listeners don't know this because we're recording this. Why is it doing that again? Hang on.

Oh, there it goes. Okay. All right. All right, yeah, we're live. We're recording this, although you don't know because we recorded something before this. And if you're not a patron, you'll never know what we recorded.

Back to back, baby. Yeah. Liam is doing this. He's fight through it. He did a gown of milk as part of starting strength. Gown of milk a day challenge, yeah. He's doing the SS plus Go Mad. Because he doesn't want to be a DYEL anymore.

And you'll know what that stuff means if you listen to the bonus episode that'll come out. Please. If you listen to our bonus with Bobby, we talked about online lifting culture. Not Bob everyone wants to mail in, but Bobby. I don't know why I went to the South there. That was weird. Bobby from Pennsylvania. Originally.

Do I have to bleep that? No. No, I think that's public knowledge. I just don't think you should list where he went to high school. No. Yeah. Um, he went to, oh, I delete the Lunk Alarm. Fuck. Good.

Thank God. He went to this, this high school. E-L-G-S-E-S Eagles! Yay! It still brings a smile to my face. Me too. Gosh, you suck so much. I know.

Uh, yeah, we recorded a bonus with Bobby. Me too. Gosh, you suck so much. I know. Yeah, we recorded a bonus with Bobby from Tipping Pitches about online lifting culture, kind of running, doing that sort of, you know, thousand foot view of it while I was wearing just a stringer tee hat and sunglasses. And I had my shaker. I actually still have my shaker bottle with me. The light wasn't helping my delts pop as much as I should. I should have gotten better lighting in here.

Probably, but it's okay. But it's all right. But you see, you can see like my one trap won't like if I, my one trap is like uneven and won't pop out. Of course, you fucking idiot. How could you do this? Yeah, my fucking traps are fucking stupid. And yeah, yeah. So that's what happens. It's a good episode. You should listen to it. Yeah, I think it's a good one. We're right now, everything's normal. We had a, we survived

a tornado. We survived rain. We haven't been bombed by any countries yet. Yet. Yet. So, that's good. You know what's funny? So, I was listening to the last Bring Him Young Money, because it's summer now. I can catch up on all podcasts. Oh yeah?

Yeah. And they, he's doing his eyebrow. They were literally as they're recording is when the Israel started striking Iran. Jesus Christ. It's like, dude, what the fuck is up with those guys? Those of you who don't know, the invasion of Ukraine started while we were recording a bonus with them. Yes. Way back in the day.

That was, yeah, about a hundred years ago because time takes a million years now. Yeah. Or not, or the opposite of that really. Time is not dilating in the right way. No, nothing works. Yeah. Yeah. We're in a weird time.

Yeah. Threat of World War III. Oh, it's coming. Closer than ever. Yeah. Closer than ever. Yeah. Threat of World War Three. Oh, it's coming closer, closer than ever. Yeah. Let's try that. I moved that clock. I, I am still sort of somewhat hopeful that Trump's ego and desire to be loved. Outweighs his hawkish bullshit nonsense. Yeah, I do think his reticence to actually commit to a full war.

It's like a good sign, maybe. Maybe. And he is waffling back and forth on what he wants to do. He says, I'll give you an answer within two weeks. So, yeah. I know a lot of people are like, oh, it's going to happen this weekend. And there's all these planes flying. It's like, okay. Wow. Okay. We'll see. Yeah. By the way, just for the listener, if people are posting pictures of like planes, like military jets flying, if they have their transponder on, they want you to know. So you're not in some secret intel shit.

Right. Like they'll turn them off if they want to. Oh, it's INT, whatever that's called. Yeah. Yeah. Awesome. Yeah. Like when they were doing, during the George&T, whatever that's called. Yeah. Oh, it's Rosenthal. Yeah. Like, when they were doing the George Floyd protests, the Philly police helicopters started turning off their transponders because they didn't want people to track them. But also, when you're in a city, it's easy to track the helicopter.

You just see it. Yeah. Yeah. So we got all these good news. Things are great. Things are awesome. Everything's going well for us. Everything's turning up Tom. Yeah, everything we got all these good news. Things are great. Things are awesome. Everything's going well for us. Everything's turning up Tom.

Yeah, everything is great. I still haven't gotten the hit in my softball league. Oh, you're pathetic. I know. I'm kidding. Ooh. What? That is a long ass thunder.

Oh, nice. It's still going. Ooh, daddy. It's like God had a fart. Oh, there's like a new round of like, is it picked up? Is the rain picked up for you too? I can't even tell. Honestly, God, I can't even tell.

My mom texted and she's like, oh my God, are you guys safe? There was like a lot of rain. No, we're all dead. We're dead. We're dead. We're dead. It's all right. Dead. All right. Yeah, we're dead. We're dead. We're dead.

Sorry. All right. Yeah, we're all dead. And welcome to hell because even in hell, we can't get out of the mines. No, we have to be. This whole town road by the Bear of McNeil's blaring as we go back into hell. I do really like the Marlboro back back behind you. Every time I see it, it makes me smile. I can smell the cigarettes, even though you say it doesn't smell like it. Wistful, right?

Yeah. Yeah. It brings back the nostalgia of it. That's what I'm here for, bud. Hello. Welcome to another episode of 10,000 Losses, the only Phil Duffy of sports podcast that exists. I'm your host, Tom Payne.

So let's talk. It's the summer. It's a late news. Yeah, sorry. We don't have too much for you today and also, sepia. It's a lot of schadenfreude today. Yeah, you want to talk about, well, there's some bad news which is that Aaron Nolah is dead.

Yeah, Aaron Nolah's died. They burned him out with a crawfish boil and just... He noodled one too many catfish and it took off his fingers. Yeah. Um, I can't pitch anymore. He's dead now. Yeah. Um, it's, it's his rib cage injury, which they, they said, sure it is.

It was a stress reaction to an MRI, which. Sure. What does that mean? What is the stress reaction? How do you know? It's like, it's like the MRI reveal like it's like oh man I got so like your ribs is like fuck man. I got so much shit. I gotta do Yeah, there's so much ribs. Yeah, there's so many other ribs around me man. My baby is piled up

I gotta do the pomodoro technique yourself the man. I'm dying. I'm dying here. Yeah, they killed Aaron Ola, which is a shame But what are you gonna do? Um here. Yeah, they killed Aaronola, which is a shame, but what are you going to do? He keeps hurting. Like I'm assuming he keeps hurting himself in a comedic chain of events. Yeah, right. Like falling it like falling down, like trying to play Nintendo Switch or something. Yeah. Well, he's like one of those out of the park baseball injuries. I don't know if you've ever seen out of the park.

Baseball is famous for having very wacky. Yes. Injuries. There's one like, you know, your player goes to see a guru and then you're like, oh no. However this ends in three months, it's going to be bad. You know, player falls off a roof. They're all based on real ones. Like, that's funny. There's a guy who I don't know who the real player was, but there's a guy who like fell

off a roof and a little like a power tool. Like, you know, there's all sorts of weird shit that happens. My favorite baseball injuries when a guy like just hurts their fingernail. Right. And it's like, I can't pitch for two weeks because I had a hangnail. So buddy, I think you maybe could.

You could, you just don't want to. He just don't want to. Which is fine. Yeah. So, we picked up Buddy Kennedy's contract, but he's not a pitcher, I don't think. Okay. Well, we're fucked. Yeah, he's an infielder, that's what I thought. I don't know. The Phillies have been, like, the last thing we recorded, they were weird. I put it to spare, and now we're kind of out of it.

Seven and two in the last nine. Thank you. Thanks. They're they're. Yeah, that's right. I said thank you to sneeze too. I know. I know.

Weird but it is weird, right? We're in the we're as we record recording on the 19th, top of the third, playing the Marlins. One of the things I noticed was the stadium, cause that stadium is loud. Yeah. The stadium was so quiet yesterday. I'll tell you that it's very quiet, but when they pump up the sound to between innings and when they cut in, it's like, Oh my God, that noise comes

through, right. Even on the fucking TV, the brown, the brown noise, the, the brown, it's like the noise genuinely like gives you anxiety in that stadium. Anyway, speaking of other figure, the Phillies, Nick Castellanos. Oh, he was bad. He was a bad boy. Yeah. He got banned. So they killed him. Yes, they took him out back and shot him.

He's got a real dickhead haircut going on right now. I really like it. I'm sorry. I shouldn't, but. So apparently what happened was he got subbed out. I was really mad about it, really mad about it. And he spoke his mind in quotes. Never want to do that to Rob Thompson. Never want to do that.

And Rob Thompson said you're fucking you're getting benched. You're benched and Nick took a gun or might as well have from what I understand. Nick Castellanos was quoted saying we're two grown men that show up every day work for a common goal of winning the World Series. If everyone just agrees and everything doesn't speak to mind, there's not going to be passion, emotions drive people, especially passionate people to think that there's going to be eight months of consistently being together and not butting heads at all. It probably doesn't happen, right? So a remarkably

visual head and response. His agent definitely was like, all right, dickhead. Yeah. I do think Cassianos isn't as big a moron as he comes off. No, he definitely isn't. He definitely is not. Now here's the thing. The WIP guys, they're saying like, oh, well, he's like cancer in the locker room. Like he's a low key dickhead.

I'm sure that he is. He definitely comes off as surly. He definitely comes off as as surly. He definitely comes off as someone who, hey, I'm here to play the game like that's it. Like, I'm not here to do anything else. I'm not here to be a role model. Like, I'm here to play the game. I'm not here to answer your stupid fucking questions.

I'm here to fucking play baseball, get paid, go home. Right. Which is what you expect and want, which is fine. That's fine. Not everyone's going to be that not everyone wants to be social. No. They shouldn't be expected to be either. Yeah. So I thought it was amusing. Yeah, I have no problem with that. He's statistically the worst outfielder in the major league. Salute. Salute. Thank you. I'm dying. His wife apparently commented

414 straight games. So, Ares Nationall League record holder eyes off the computer, watched the game. So, Jess Castellanos is officially a Saber Metrics hater. Okay, Jess. Yeah. Okay. Well, there's nothing we can do about that.

Do you think you could use your connection that because doesn't, doesn't Cassianos, does she follow you or she just commented? She commented. I was gonna say she followed you. She's also far right. I still follow her, but then it's just like you see some like neo Nazi and it's just like followed by Michelle Castellanos. That's not good.

Yeah, so I do. I would love to know what he actually said. He probably just said that you're fucking asshole. Yeah, I fucking got you basically. Yeah. And you know, bad boy guy's punishment. It's funny as Rob Thompson can't catch a break like the narrative around him. He's either too soft on the players. He's not hard enough. When he is when he is hard, he's making bad baseball decisions.

Right. I mean, oh, Alec Boehm keeps fucking up. Yeah, but he's been playing all right. Yeah, but he can't run the bases for shit. Well, no, these would he's been playing all right. Yeah, but he can't run the bases for shit. Well, no These would he's a fucking draft. I know but I would like him to run the bases a little better, please Yeah, he's doing all right. It's doing all right. Oh, yes I watched the game last night. I Which sucks is right now because of Harper being hurt and who knows how long he'll be out.

Oh, he's dead. All is he'll be dead. They're all dead. Is, you can't really just like get rid of him as easily. Now he's your fucking three hole hitter. Yep. Better. Dickhead.

Yeah. I'll edit that out. Thank you. Not the part where you call me dickhead. I'll just leave it in. No, leave that one. Randomly. Not the part where you call me dickhead. I'll just leave it in. No, leave that one. Randomly. Why does he call it time of dickhead?

You know why. Of course. All right. Let's get to Shudder Sanders. 101 miles an hour in a 60. Yeah, he got pulled over. Well, to be fair, this isn't even that bad. He went 144 when he was supposed to go 25.

Oh, I was going to look that one up. That was a good one. That was a good one. Yeah, that less than. Oh, here we go. Cleveland dot com covering Northeast Ohio. Chidor Sanders will pull it over for speeding less than two weeks before the latest citation. Come on, man. Yeah, you you come on.

On June 17th, he was pulled over doing 101 in the 60. Before that, he was doing 91 in the 65 on June 5th. Just go to a racetrack. You have the money. Man, man, you could kill a kid, dude. Like I go to Newfoundland if you want to speed. That's what I did. I had a discussion with with my students once because they wanted to watch videos of these guys driving fast. Right.

And I'm like, I'm not watching that. That's stupid. That's going to make me mad. Like, why does it make you mad? I was like, because you're driving like these guys driving 90 in New York City. They're going to hit. They could hit somebody. Well, so what? Go to a race track. Like, what's wrong with you? Yeah, like you're not cool.

You're not sticking it to anybody. You're just making a risk. Right. Yeah. Like you're doing those kinds of things. They don't they don't stop. They hit anybody. They don't understand that they actually will get in less trouble. If you stop, if you hit somebody and stop, you get in less trouble. They do that on purpose. Right.

I knew that firsthand. Don't want to get into that, but I wasn't speeding. Yes, you were. No, I kid ran there, ran, I hit a kid driving a bike. Yeah. And I was doing the speed limit. And then you were pulled out of the car and lunch for a service weapon, which we told you not exactly. Yeah. Yeah. And I and I had I was lucky there was witnesses who were just like, oh, total accident.

Right. Yeah. They gave statements to the police. Anyway, the this this sort of thing kind of vindicates, there's two types of true door Sanders haters. Okay. There's the racist ones. Right. And then there's the, okay, this guy has like some issues.

Mm hmm. The ball knowing once. Yeah. But it seems to be, this is the kind of issue they're talking about. This is, dude, you've got to be like, even though you didn't get first round. You can't be undisciplined like this, right? Make your fucking money, man.

Like, yeah. Get the bag, dude. Don't be a dickhead. Cleveland cannot win with quarterback, can they? No. Well, they also probably shouldn't have signed Deshaun Watson knowing his issues, but. Yeah. And they also signed Shudder Sanders knowing his issues. Yes, they did. He also failed to appear in court. This is according to Fox News.

Oh. Yeah. So, he failed to appear in court. Okay, man. whatever. Right. That's it's it's dumb. That's just dumb bullshit. Um, I know we can push through this. Doesn't have to be a long one today.

No, that was an itch. It should or Sanders, actually. Yeah. No, it's just it's just it's a little ridiculous, right? Because you're just like, come on, man, the issues, we knew the issues, like there's a reason you fell and part of that is racism and part of that also like, isn't racism and just like there are legitimate like character concerns and like, are you going to be able to like handle this when you kind of weren't all that great in college? Like I don't, I don't know.

Yeah. If I was, if I was a coach, I would be saying, dude, you do this shit again. I'm cutting you. Yeah. They're your contract. It's not guaranteed, man. Right. You know, you can go find another team and play for, um, oh, the, the, the, speaking of, of, of football players with, uh with issues, Antonio Brown. Oh, yeah. Jesus. It's bad, folks. Yeah. So Antonio Brown is charged with attempted murder.

Yes. That's my understanding. Yes. Do we know who the guy was? He tried to shoot. I don't. I'm sure we do, but I don't know it. Okay. He's in Dubai right now. Okay. That also tracks. Assholes love Dubai.

They do, man. They fucking love it. Yeah. Just all surface level takes only people love Dubai. So let's see if I can find something. Miami Herald. He left the country days after authorities this Miami Herald. You should rush for it. He's been on the run.

Oh, he's been traveling with us, but they don't consider him on the run. He's wanted on a tip to murder charge something for a basic May 16th. Was it his girlfriend? Was it a boxing event? Oh, was it? Yeah, it was a boxing event. He's wanted on a tip to murder charge something from basic May 16th. Was it a boxing event? Oh, was it? Yeah, it was a boxing event. That's right. And he'd like claimed he got jumped. I don't know. It was really weird. I mean, Antonio Brown, please donate your brain. Yeah, we need to see it. When you die.

I want to see the Swiss cheese. There's no way he's not fucking. Swiss cheese. Swiss cheese at this point. Yeah. I'm going to fuck this name up. I'm sorry. Yeah, probably. That's okay. Zulkarnean, Kwame Nantumbu, a 40 year old who said he's known him since 2022. Okay. I gotta readjust. I'm not going anywhere. I just gotta move back a little bit. There you go.

Brown was detained in search. No firearm was found. I'm sorry. I'm not going anywhere. I just got to move back a little bit. Oh, there we go. There you go. Brown was detained at search. No firearm was found on him. Although they found two spent shell casings. On him? And a damaged right-hand holster outside the venue. Okay.

Shell casings? Do they mean... Bullet casings? Do they mean cartridges? Probably. Yeah, because I don't think he had a fucking shotgun with him. Just an 870 for some fucking reason. Yeah. Yeah, he's like in the fucking mafia. He's got that sawn off.

Yeah, so not looking good right now. I saw that. That's crazy, but like that he's the guy I'm least surprised. Didn't he arrive to practice in a helicopter at one point? I think so. Yeah. Maybe when he was in the Raiders. That that would track. What is up with wide receivers, man?

It's like it's like it's like the enemy speaks kindly and carries the knife. Pitchers are insane. Like every, every sport has a position that's full of psychos. It's pitchers and baseball. Oh yeah. It's wide receivers and football. And punters, punters, goalies or psychos. Goalies.

All psychos. All of them. Who would it be? Who would it be in basketball? Senesh? Senesh are fucking weird. Yeah, Shaq is weird What's his name? Gilbert arenas is weird Dwight Howard's weird

Yeah Oh, it's it was to a Steelers practice. He runs the training camp in a in a in a helicopter. Yeah Wow With his kid in it, too He rides the training camp in a helicopter. Yeah. Wow. With his kid in it too. Great. Okay. Back to baseball. Apparently, Dodger Stadium, their parking lot has been used as a staging ground for ice. And then apparently they didn't let them in. Yeah. They, they, they preventing them from entering the stadium. Um, and they're denied entry. Apparently the stadium is, was being used for, uh, they were going to use, announce

assistance to immigrant communities. All right. This is all on the news. So there's a lot of weird language around it. I said they never intended to go there. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Sure. You did, bud. But I'm glad that the Dodgers are doing the bare minimum here. Me too. Apparently they, they, and now I'm reading more in the article in the past past they've let law enforcement use for parking. So maybe they just thought it, hey, we can still do it. Or maybe they, they had permission. They changed their minds because of optics, because a lot of Dodgers fans are immigrants.

Right. And the optics are not good. Yeah. Kike Hernandez said something really, really nice on nice on Instagram. Yeah. He said, I might not be born and raised, but the city thought me as one of their own. I am saddened and infuriated by what's happening in our county and our city. Los Angeles and Dodger's fans have welcomed me, supported me, and showed me nothing but kindness and love. This is my second home. I cannot stand to see our community violated, profiled, abused, and ripped apart. All people

capitalize. All people deserve to be treated with respect and the human rights. Hashtag city of immigrants. And then he wrote the same in Spanish. So did you hear her name this? I just don't like how he spells his name. That is the nickname. It's, oh, in the game and stuff, they put a little line

over the E. Yeah. Like an accent mark. It's like, that's not how it's actually spelled It's just spelled the same as a slur Well, they're gonna do I haven't called it before yeah, well, I think it's just short for Enrique That so should be Rique Rique Hernandez, that's a very charming name isn't that his Enrique is nice. I don't know man

That's a very charming name. Isn't that his, Enrique is a nice name. I don't know, man. The Giants beat the Guardians. I'm sure we're going to get that out of Roshin later, but. Oh yeah, Enrique Jose Hernandez Gonzalez Jr. Nicknamed Kike with the IPA right there. So that you don't mix it up, but they don't have the accent mark on it. Yeah, interesting.

Yeah, I've always liked that guy. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. Oh, we can talk about Rafael Devers going to the... Oh shit. Yeah. You type the slur in and there's a bunch of Spanish guys named it.

Oh, yeah. Okay, well. Kike is a very common nickname. Not everything has to be English centric. Okay, well, I don't like the slur. I'm not saying you have to like the slur. I also don't like the Dodgers. I do like Kiki Hernandez's big dumb face though.

Yeah, and I've... He has a big head. He's got a really big head. He also looks like a child. Yeah. I like him. He played for the Sox for a while. Rafael Devers has traded to the Giants.

Yeah, because he blew up the management ownership, blew up any relationship that they could have had. Yeah. And it's sort of- It's like the Mookie Bet shit all over again. In this case, it sort of makes sense because he's an aging DH. Right. And he cannot play defense. No, he's like, I play third. And they were like, OK, but you can't.

He was like, I play third and I play DH on the Giants. So if I could make that make sense. But. So there was really kind of a salary dump. Yep. That contract, my the tail under that contract might have really not been great. Although of course all these rich assholes could play, could actually just afford it anyway. Yep. That's also 100, that fucking asshole.

They traded for Kairos and Jordan Hicks. It's just some guys. Yeah. James Tibbs the third and Jose Bello. Yeah. Guys. Jose Bello. Although Jordan Hicks has had his moments. Yep. Yeah.

Try this. Yes. So that's that's another big blockbuster trade. I don't know what's going to happen with the Phillies. We're going to ride this shit out. I mean, we're 44 and 30 tie with the the the butt sucking Marlins right now. Now, four zero zero in the bottom of the fourth at least according to ESPN. Yeah, we did trade For a pitcher named Nolan Hoffman from the Rangers Nasty for cash. Yeah, he's so good. Yeah

That's what I heard of him before only the best players get paid for in cash. Yeah, he's so good He hasn't even played Major League Baseball yet. They don't even have a picture of him on this Wikipedia page. Yeah. Oh, there's a dog fight happening outside right now. Oh no, not a literal one I hope. My neighbor's got a crazy puppy that haven't traded yet. It's big and it just went after another dog. I think it's okay. I should get Tywin Walker played for the Mets. You forget that?

Yeah. Bryce Harper's dead. Aaronola's dead. Jose Alvarado's dead. Yeah, Jose Alvarado is a very good guy now. We're going to have to get this done with just Mick Abel and friends. Yeah, Mick Abel's been alright. Can I be really mean for a second?

Sure. Orion Kirkering is one of the most hideous men I've ever seen in my life. Oh, that that facial hair needs help. He's he's definitely got a guy, new new metal beard, new metal scumbag. Yeah, I don't think he's I don't think he's ugly. But I want you to look at his Wikipedia page,

look at him from the side. And then you tell me that. Hold on. Look at this image. OK, let's see. Is Ryan Kirkering hot, Colin? Yeah, not you, Charlie. We're going to get. He looks all right.

He looks all right in this one. OK, well, hang on. I'll go. I'll go look at the Wikipedia. There's so many. OK, that's actually not bad. Look at his piercing brown eyes. Oh, that's a hard that's a horrible picture. It was like pictures that zoomed in horrible picture

with that weird new Apple AI thing that it does. They have to disable because everyone's look at everyone else's faces in that picture on Wikipedia. They all look like horrible, horrible. Oh, that sharpness is killing me. Yeah. That's a picture for this year. Yep. Wake up.

Thanks. Orion is also a cool name. Yeah, his actual name is Richard, but he goes by his middle name. Dick Kirkering. Dick Orion Kirkering. Dick Ring. Dick Ring. So, I call it all Cockering Kirkering. Pleaseer Ryan Kirkering. Dickering. Dickering.

So I call it a little cockering, Kirkering. Please don't beat me up. Bringing in all cockering. Close it down. Yeah, I. Also, we waved Carlos Fernandez, the Tigers picked him up. I don't know if he really cared about that. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know what's going to happen with the trade. We're going to say I don't know what he really cared about that. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know what's going to happen with the trade that we're going to say.

I don't know what the prognostication. Obviously they need like, like, stir up the bullpen, I think, and then see if they, if they can get a center fielder, who knows? That'd be nice. Yeah. But the auto was that auto camp kids and like pretty good since they brought him up. He's been decent. Yeah. Yeah. Pretty good since they brought him up. He's been decent. Yeah The bar the the bunce Loving it

So maybe maybe he's a guy Who I can't yeah, he's been decent again, we should be executing Alec boom right now Oh My god, I'm looking at these Apple AI images. I can't get over how terrible these look. Yeah. It's only on new newer phones. Yeah. I'm rocking an iPhone 13 Pro Max Prolapse still.

In the third place, 500 guardians who have lost eight of the last 10 just got swept by the Mariners under nine and a half games out of first cannot hurt me today Okay, aside from the 1112 drubbing.

Now waiting to see which funding plan wins out in the full General Assembly. More to come in parentheses. Pretend I fired this off last night before I conked out.

Sure. Sure. It was last night. It was last night. Dropping. I got to see. Let's do some little etymology there. Is that a native English word?

It seems like it would be. The drub. Yeah. It comes from old English. Drob or druv. Drob. Turbid, dragey or dirty. From Proto-West Germanic draubi.

Draubi. Draubi. From Proto-Germanic draubi, draubi, draubi. From Proto-Germanic draubus turbid. I'm looking for turgid, really. But draub is only used as a noun anymore in North England. Okay. Oh, so the verb might actually is of uncertain origin. Oh, okay.

Okay. All right. But it might come from... Let's say we have six voicemails. Drip on, which means to beat. All right. I know you're not complaining because you knew I was running the clock. Yeah.

All right. We have Mika, Mika from DC. Hopefully he didn't get run over by Tank. Hi, Tom. Yay, Liam. This is Mika. See him from DC. It's been a while, but mostly I've been kind of like tracking the Phillies progress

Baseball's raking my heart. So I turned to wrestling instead there enough Babu died a couple weeks ago stablutery brunk That's the news I have so far from like wrestling RIP to real one. I still think about his last match. It's in the context around this is like really fucking heartbreaking. They really did that shit to him.

GCW, the promotion was irresponsible with like letting him be that drugged out for a match. It sucks but like what can you do? Anyway that being said I just want to take my time to say I appreciate the positive you know mass kill energy that you guys have on this podcast. It's like not every day that I hear a podcast where it's just dudes rocking and shooting the shit. So I feel like that's a lot of podcasts we're just just and not people usually make up for the Swag fest that the silly you sorry and right now over. Thank you over go birds Yes the Giants

Fuck the Jets fuck every New York based team. Oh Have a nice day John from Pittsburgh you too. Yeah Thank You Mika. Yeah, I appreciate it. We do like, I do like it when, when, when listeners say it's like, all right, it's nice listening to guys speak guys, but who aren't assholes? Thank you. Well, like that, that kind of asshole.

Those messages really, we really like it. All right. Let's see. What kind of Charlie are we getting today? Hey guys, Gail, Liam, A-Con, Charlie from Roxboro. At Subaru Park,

did beat Charlie FC 2-1, getting the first goal in the end of the first half of Jose Bueno. They conceded a goal in the middle of the second half giving up to absolutely fucking Walsh, former Crystal Palace player Wilfred Zaha. But the Union, again, just like they did against the LA Galaxy, got a golden stoppage time in the 99th minute of stoppage time to get a beat. Charlotte two ones, Mark Anderson, you know, we're completely defeated. They had backups and backups, but they just proved that this country has got your fucking car around and no fucking kid I don't fucking come out. I know you can't go back to Charlotte.

But because the fuck everything we do, there's shit or fucking unity. I we do not let this stand. We committed fucking regicide. The fucking. I think he is fucking dead. We saw the cute in that. Oh, yeah. That's fucking. Oh, I love you, Charlie. That's. Let's fucking go.

Oh, I love you, Charlie. That's the Charlie we were getting. Damn. All right. They just the Soviet anthem just started playing in my background as we we committed French. So I was really good. Oh, my God. That's awesome. The the the union's lead score, Thai Tai Boribo, is stuck in Israel. Oh no.

Because you're not allowed to leave. Because it's the only safe place in the world for Jews, I guess. You have to stay there and get rocketed. Yeah, okay. Why don't we just not have Asian states anymore? I keep saying it. Well, we can have them for a little bit. No, no more nation states.

We achieve the higher level. So no more nation states. Eventually, yes. No more nation states. All right. Let's move on. Dickhead. Hey, Tommy. Liam, it's Wayne. Pronoun T.

Him currently standing at the caucus junction awaiting my train back home from the first Club World Cup match at the venue that will host the final MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Matches between FC Porto, Portugal and Palmeiras of South Pole Brazil. Probably one of the most entertaining games I've probably seen probably since the Liverpool Everton match back in February. Crowd was energetic, probably the most energetic crowd

I've ever seen in my life, which to be honest was kind of the expectation when I purchased the ticket. The Palmiris fans basically dictated the atmosphere and stadium and they had the best chances of the game. Just before halftime there was a scramble in the box. Two shots were saved by the portal keeper and then second half of play, not much going but there was a lot of gamesmanship on the part of the supporto, couple soft fouls on top of like the hard-hitting crunch tackles. Palmeiras lost their minds when they couldn't get substitutes on after a missed shot that

resulted in a goal kick resulting in the manager getting a yellow card. The subs were made though. There was another ball attempt but that hit the post in around the 75th minute and the last efforts just were short as the match ends 0-0 and everyone in Group a in the club world cup, Allali and inter Miami included all have one point and not a single goal. Also, whoever designed MetLife stadium should be punted into balls because there's no through concourses. I've heard it's absolutely busy when they get it to us. It is. It is.

Uh, like you have to drive. Like there's like a weird. I've been there. It is. Loops on our way or something like that. Yeah. It's awful. It's hell on earth.

Yeah. Fuck that shit. Yeah. Thanks. Thanks, Wayne. I know some people who may or may not have lived in my basement at one point are very excited about one of the Egyptian teams. Oh, that's good. Oh yeah. I forgot you were a landlord.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, he gives out rent for free. All right. Oh, nice. Oh, excuse me. We actually have a, I think a first time caller. So, let's listen to him. Hey, Tommy. Liam, this is Maggie Pernas. You her calling it from Livermore, California with its cool news from the trail running and an ultra marathon world. Oh, that's sick. Same. Ultra marathon runner John Kelly is currently attempting to break the Appalachian Trail

speed record. Hell yeah. The what? Currently held by Tara Dower of 40 days, 18 hours, six minutes. He's about 23, 24 days in right now and is already east of Philadelphia, starting from Springer Mountain in Georgia. The dude's running 60 miles a day climbing 10,000 feet a day. The dude's a fucking animal. I think more people need to know about him and keep an eye on them. Cheers.

That's awesome. Anything Appalachian Trail, I love that shit. I really, really, really want to do it. I've camped before. I've been not in wilderness, but I've been out in the woods at night. It's other people on the trail that worry me. I've read enough about different murders. I went on a deep dive once of, there was a murder actually on the part of the trail by Harrisburg and they literally burned, they demolished the place where the person was murdered, like burned it. They scattered all the rocks. They built a new one like a little bit down.

Just sort of like dispel the bad juju and stuff like that. But there was a person who was commenting on the Appalachian Trail Reddit who was talking about having a weird experience there, but they didn't know about that spot. And I did a little bit of legwork. I was like, oh, you were right there. It was sort of like a, oh, shit, I didn't know about that. The vibes are cursed. Yeah. Well, also you're in Appalachia, so like- The vibes are cursed. The vibes are cursed. It's a cursed area.

Listen to the Trill boys, they'll talk all about that stuff. Oh yeah. I love that like local folklore shit. Have you ever heard of the Pukwudgies? No. My dad believed in them. There's a Lenape name for them, but but it's like a broad concept on the Northeast woodlands.

But it's like, if you hear drums in the woods, do not follow. They're warning you away. And I remember my dad telling me this and he's like, you know, Tom, you gotta be careful if you're in the woods, you hear the wood ghost hitting the drums. I was like, sure thing, pops. Yeah, sure, you hear the wood ghost hitting the drums. I was like, sure thing pops. Yeah, sure, man. Sure. Thanks. Appreciate it. Please go take your meds. Thanks. All right. We have, we have two consecutive Wookiees. So, and, and, and Postman Wookie did stay within the three minute each time, so.

Hey, Tom, hey, Liam, postman, looky once again for another rainbow update. Pronouncing him very quickly, National Arena League, they just had their championship game where the Beaumont renegades completely routed the. The Omaha beef. Oh, it was I heard Omaha Beach and I was real nervous for a second.

Everyone enjoyed that the beef got beat by a expansion team that turns out had the lowest transactions and trades statistic in the entire National Rental League. Being like every team was just sitting there hiring hiring players nonstop trying to find a winning combination while the Beaumont renegades pretty much had the same core group through the entire season. That will do it.

Just an incredible coaching job all around and props to Beaumont. I wish them the best for 2026. And very briefly, Omaha beef owner Ricky Burtz did say that they are announcing a new expansion team at the end of June and looking to go through rapid expansion once again, which worked out great last year when they had three teams go under before the start of the season and then a fourth collapsed mid midway through the season. So yay moonshot Disexpected expansion team is the West Texas war bird war birds who previously played in the national arena league in Odessa, Texas They are moving to Amarillo where we've Erickson is actually from

Marillo where Ericson is actually from. AF1 real quickly, they just finished up their regular season, 14 playoffs. We got two small market teams versus two large market teams. The Salina Liberty and Southwest Kansas Storm take up one half, which are bait. So those scams are based out of Dodge city. And then the other half are the national cats in the Albany firebirds. I fully expect the Albany firebirds to completely house the rest of the league.

This is a team that operates as if the AFL never fell in on itself in 2019. Fascinating. Everybody else is kind of sitting there trying to pick up the scraps. And then very briefly, Nashville played a one off game in Clarksville, Tennessee, in their brand new arena for Armed Forces Day and completely packed it, which they struggled to do in Nashville. So they're playing their playoff games in Nashville and we're possibly moving there

in 2026. Have a one good one guys. Post Van Wookiee out. All right. And I think we still have one more. So let's hear. Hey, Tom. Hey Liam.

It's Post Van Wookiee once again. A little bit different this time pronouncing him. Actually kind of want to talk about NASCAR real quickly there. I do have 11 years experience between Holler Driver, Crewman, Car Chief, Jack Man, Field Guy. I did it all for, in my 11 years in the sport before I blew my knee out and hit my 30s and decided that I needed to sleep in my own bed every weekend and needed the government job.

NASCAR just ran their first cup race in Mexico City at Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. The XFINITY series actually raced there three or four times in the mid-aughts between 2005 and 2008. Then they moved that race to Montreal. Overall, it was a, other than the logistical nightmare that NASCAR put themselves in because they want the season to run nonstop from the end of February to the start of November with no off weekends whatsoever for the Cup guys. That's insane.

That meant the hauler drivers had to leave the Irish hills of Michigan Sunday evening, drive straight down to Laredo, Texas to cross the border on Tuesday and then have a military convoy going into Mexico City. Of course, NASCAR fans, more specifically the DARVs, the dumbass racing fans, have been complaining that they shouldn't be racing in a dangerous nation. That is Mexico, whatever. They had security. Nobody got hurt other than the idiots that drank the water down there, including Noah

Gregson and race winner Shane Van Gisburg from New Zealand, not Australia, like all the Darfs think he's from. In his race win an interview in the stadium section of the track there. He admitted that he'd been leaking out of both ends all day long. But he completely routed them, had a next gen era record margin of victory and the largest margin of victory since 2009, 2008. Just an incredible dick stomping. Dick stomping. Dick stomping.

All around. Shane VanGaidenburg is a fucking trait and the sports are lucky to have him. Have a good one. Also, Tabloid is racist. He's the spotter for William Byron and got fired. Okay. Have a good one guys.
