He is actually going to eject a fan. Because 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 an ice ball. Well, this is totally a completely unprepared and uncanned attempt at this podcast. Yeah, we have the lions led by donkeys curse. Actually, on Lions yesterday, we had to do it three times. But part of that was because Joe's mic sounded like shit. Yeah.

Fuck it. I don't know, dude. It's been a weird week i got my first yay liam in public yeah you did yeah you were there i was the everybody was there everyone was there shouts out to whoever you are if you listen to 10 000 losses too uh definitely you can come up and talk to me next time uh but i get you were probably gathering your courage or whatever. So I'm not, I'm not upset. Yeah. That's not bad.

No. I know that probably took some, took some guts on your part. So. Guy who came and said, yay, Liam. Awesome. You're cool. We were not mean. I mean, I am scary looking.

Don't, don't be afraid. Fear not my child, like a biblical angel. Exactly. Yeah, I have the 4,000 eyes. Yeah. Imagine just seeing one of those like a fever dream being like, fuck no.

I mean, I imagine that was what caused it to exist in the first place. Like I imagine that's what John, you know, whatever the fuck, John of whatever, fucking saw. because that's like

that's kind of like it's funny like like 13 years of catholic school and the roots of my non-theism my agnosticism atheism whatever you want to call it are completely rooted in my senior year theology class where we did biblical criticism and it was like oh here's like the origins of all these things i was like oh so this is all like made up okay cool oh yeah all right sorry sorry this is not ezekiel ezekiel and daniel are i think what they appear in do they appear in that all right so go ahead so that's us uh yeah it's you guys yeah uh yeah i i can't vouch for that though because these things scare the shit out of me all right so then john or john who wrote revelations revelations john kind of must have been literate in the biblical shit anyway then and he was just having a acid trip or whatever the fuck it was but all just all having some sort of bizarro world fever dream acid meltdown yeah yeah i mean

that's what religion used to be you know if you look at ancient greek you know the elathusian mysteries like it was basically they figured out people were just getting fucking high yeah yeah for all of recorded human history. People have been on drugs. Yeah. You either eat something, eat some ergot, you get some CO2 fumes in a fucking cave. I've heard that theory behind the Salem witch hysteria. The ergot?

Everyone, the ergot theory, yeah. Now, out of interest, I feel like i need to do some sort of research to see how true that is i've actually when i when i brewed way more often i would get you would get rye and you will there's bits of it in there it's it's like something that they take out as much as possible but it does make its way into rye every so often right right so just you standing over an empty vat like give your secrets to me give your secrets to me reveal thyself just like pantsless in the kitchen i'm like like why did you buy 200 sacks of rye i'm picking out all the fucking ergot

oh i'm gonna see god baby you're gonna see guy gonna fucking put some weights on a guy's chest Picking out all the fucking ergot. Oh, I'm going to see God, baby. I'm going to see God. I'm going to fucking put some weights on a guy's chest. It's going to be great. Things are about to get real weird from here on out. It's going to, it's going to, I'm getting ready for the sale. I'm going up the sale. I'm going to reenact some shit on some, on some girls doing the bachelorette party on Halloween.

Salem, Massachusetts is truly like, it's so funny because uh like having spent enough time in new england during the summers as a kid it's so funny because people i know like people my age will be like oh i've always wanted to go to salem and it's like fucking don't like it sucks there it's like there's one museum just go home it's i'm trying to have like a philly area comparison to it it's kind of like new hope ish i guess valley forge in terms of like disappointment okay i mean valley forge is beautiful but like there's not much like there right i i mean i i had good beer in salem at notch so yeah notch is good uh maybe the liberty bell okay in terms of just

like all right i see what you're saying i was kind of going for the vibe of the town oh then yeah new hope yeah new hope because well new hope used to be weirder like it used to have more like offbeat eclectic stuff like yeah which witchy kind of stuff and then i sanitized it yeah you know uh my when i was younger and single the whole like kind of it's funny it's like new agey mystical girl vibe which i way too often would end up being interested in women like that and then oh no yeah and then and then it's like wait no i don't believe in any of this stuff and then i was like just just stop just stop chasing that it's not gonna work out dudes it's not gonna being counted to death with crystals yes yes it's like i think it's just the aesthetic but yeah

it's like what will i learn yeah no you know what and if you're and if you're, you know, a witchy person out there, they tend to be kind of cool, decent human beings. So usually, usually, usually as long as you're not getting into the weird neo fascist, neo fascist. No, no, no, no. Not like the not that not not the that shit. Fuck that. Yeah. No, like the kind of like just kind of vaguely anarchist ick i don't want to hear about your broons yeah see i do want to talk about broons but i don't

believe they actually do anything that's the that that's the disconnect right yeah all right so uh did you know that this is a podcast is it yeah and it's about sports oh fuck my ass all right all right so this is the only podcast that exists so we can actually talk about anything we want we can uh yeah no i mean the thing is that like we killed and ate all the other podcasts uh so you know glory to us glory to no one else jump he was hard to take down too. Yeah. Wily bastard. Yeah. You can't outrun a 226. You're an out bicycle.

All right. So hello and welcome to another episode of 10,000 Losses, the only podcast that exists. I'm your host, Tom Payne. My pronouns are he, him, and with me is my co-host, Ye. Liam. Liam Anderson. Pronouns are also he him hello hello and so yeah this is this is 10,000 losses so we're going to be talking about sports at some point um allegedly possibly who knows we're gonna so Liam is a glutton for punishment he loves just doing double podcasts I fucking dude

we listen it tomorrow I'm hanging out with roz tomorrow and my friend comes back from jamaica so i have to like i have to do it tonight to get it out yeah like i have to yeah uh so yeah uh i'm gonna be sick with delirium by the end of our uh our bonus which we are throwing together after we record this one yep uh. We're going to relitigate the process. Oh, yeah. For those of you who are, well, there's your problem, subscribers. Sorry, but also this is a different podcast. Shut up.

Well, both of our audio quality would be at least decent. Yeah, it's not Dan McQuaid calling in from a field telephone. And, yeah yeah the crystal radio he made when he was in which is actually fairly it's fairly impressive you know but yeah yeah we're gonna talk about the process not just the history but a debate as to whether or not I guess a it worked or b you know was it worth it uh I think we we we could have a debate but i think we're doing this live on air uh yeah i think just a discussion of same yeah as opposed to just a a history with me interjecting my opinions is probably better and and i'm gonna get my digs in against a certain type of person

who the fucking word oh neolib mba red NBA Reddit slash our NBA freakazoid? Yep. I fucking hate those people, dude. The flavors of them, yeah. You were sending me some takes yesterday that were sending me into the stratosphere. Yeah, so you're going to have to listen to the bonus on that because I have – I stumble on my words every so often but there there's like a moment of clarity i get where there's just this pure vitriol you know and it's just a type you know it's like this

type of guy theory but there's nba there's there's liberal nba dad that's a guy and i will explain that on the bonus and then there's another guy that i fucking just i i will be on my deathbed dying and then i someone will talk about small business owners and then i will just like snap There's another guy that I fucking just I I will be on my deathbed dying. And then someone will talk about small business owners. And then I would just like snap into consciousness. Rise. Yeah. It's like, let me tell you about fucking guys who call themselves job creators because holy shit, I fucking hate them.

You know, I create jobs. I am part of the local economy. I'm very important. it's so important that i steal tips no more levels no it's very important that i steal tips from my teenage employees who i also harass and then my wife has time to go on facebook buy a michael kors bag and tell us all how vaccines aren't real not not not even anti-vaxxers simply that they don't exist that they don't exist and i'm gonna go to fucking the school board meeting and tell them about all my thoughts because i'm a job creator so i know everything about everything i'm

i am the person the demographic to whom both parties cater to and therefore i think i'm important and i'm gonna build a fucking foam colonnaded mansion down the shore and get mad if i see a black kid you know that's that's that's yeah i i i've met those guys uh yeah one guy was mad at me uh because i made fun of him for not knowing how to pack park his pack jesus nice pack the calf i'll fucking back up his boat and i was just like he didn't know how to fucking you know back his boat in and he was like getting progressively madder and then yelled at me like do you think you could do any better i'm like not only do i think i know i could do better oh oh i like i just felt something deep in my being it was like please let me hop in the

fucking boat yeah let me know we gotta just do this i know i gotta start the podcast but i got a boat story and i gotta tell it so one time i was doing boat things where i was volunteering and sometimes we would use boats and boat accessories to rescue people a guy pulls up to the station we had in this fucking easily 150 200 000 cigarette boat the kinds it's like like that fucking yeah and he looks like the most bewildered bewildered dentist you've ever met like he looks confused and he pulls up and it's him his wife and his two boys his two boys are ones in his 20s the other looks like he was like early teens. And they're girlfriends. And he pulls up

and he goes, oh, thank God I found you guys. I was like, you know, we're like, okay, yeah. Do you need help? I was wondering if I could fill up with your gas. You know, you guys have gasoline, right? And it's like, no, this is a search and rescue facility.

We take precedence. Yeah, we don't have a gas station that is just there for you. And he goes, yeah, I was running up from Lou's, and we were trying to go up to the city, but I didn't realize how far it was, and we're running out of gasoline, and all the places are probably closed now. Like he, he, he checked in I think at Delaware city and then ran out of gas. This is,

this is Wilmington by the way. So he went up the Christina river, saw the first people in something that looked like a uniform and asked them for gasoline. He was running out of gasoline on his boat and he goes oh well you what do you mean you're not going to give us gas like don't we pay your taxes and it's like no actually we're all volunteers dude so uh no you don't do anything and so his sons like calm them down and stuff like that and this is wilmington delaware uh you you know wilmington delaware i do um you know this is the kind of guy who when we said oh well you can go get gas you're gonna have to walk over to the gas station which is like a 20 minute walk right you can borrow the

gas can that we have to fill up your boat he He's like, that's going to take like 10 trips. He's like, well, I mean, it's that or call CTO and have them tow you back home. And he was so scared to get gasoline in a town that black people lived in. It was just, it was beautiful. I loved it. That's the least shocking thing I've ever heard in my life. And this fucking idiot went all the way from lose up to fucking wilmington not once actually considering the fact that you need to have like a like a fuel budget for your boat right just just just like dumbass who too stupid to live but smart enough to get a get a

c in dental school you know and just i fucking hate guys like that but i just thought it was so funny and it was like we're like, well, we're done here today. You can stay at the dock, but we're leaving. We're leaving. We're leaving. He's so mad. So mad. Because there was nothing he could do.

He couldn't call a politician or anything. Fuck you. I don't know what happened to him. I hope they died. Good morning, Tom. Yes. happen to them i hope they died good morning tom yes all right you're listening to boat talk you're listening to to yeah this is this is the shit that i would normally get censored for on wtyp yeah but we're with the with the inmates are running the asylum now so yeah yeah yeah we're listening this is but this is boat talk hour.

We're going to talk about the Intracoastal Waterway and then people Tom thinks should die. It's a heck of a list, I'll tell you that. Yeah, yeah. On it is almost every boat owner. If you own a motorboat, I probably hate you. Yeah, yeah. Not without cause, I'll fucking tell you that exceptions exceptions are about

two-thirds of sailboat people and like red innocent rednecks who just like bass boats those those people are usually okay so um anyway this is a sports podcast it's been 16 minutes that's fine we're the delirium's gonna set in early that's fine. The delirium is going to set in early. That's fine. Who cares, man? So we have a very short mailbag that we'll get to right at the end. But feel free to call in 267-371-7218. Yeah, cowards.

Also, patreon.com slash 10,000 losses where you're going to have to go to listen to the bonus episode. And next month I'm going to put in the $3 tier, which will have us do a Q&A, I guess. That's what won. Do a Q&A. We will figure out the logistics of that. Mailbag us. Yeah. Yeah. Not to be confused with teabagging

us, please. Yeah. Don't do that. Don't do that. That's rude. Unless we ask for it, which I won't. I won't either. Yeah. I don't want to be Roman helmeted. All right. Wow.

This is it's it's not even six yet. All right. Let's get in. Let's go right from the light jokes and like the dick jokes to talking about trevor bauer so trevor bauer he is suing the athletic for defamation when they did that big piece on his legal troubles yeah his legal issues and what was going on and those you don't know i guess like we should probably just say content warning yeah here i'm not going to get in super into it but like domestic abuse kind of shit yeah if if this stuff fucks with you like just skip ahead to i don't know how long we'll talk about this you know five minutes or whatever so trevor bauer was accused by a woman of like rape and you know

throwing her around basically and Bauer is still suspended by the league and so while the court case the woman filed for like a restraining order and the judge said well we don't think he's a threat

blah blah blah you know it's rich guy shit rich guys get away with anything the MLB is still doing their investigation he's still suspended until at least i think the 16th of april now that the legal stuff's gone he's suing the athletic for defamation for kind of exposing all the stuff that he did and apparently they had said something about him cracking her skull which didn't happen like legitimately didn't happen it's not like so he's suing for defamation but if it was a good faith like it wasn't intended as like to to fuck with them defamation is very hard to prove i mean like one good thing about this country one is that we have pretty good libel laws it's not like the fucking uk where you you know get gag ordered yeah smallest

thing yeah yeah so uh in this case yeah um good luck they're fucking owned by the new york times so fucking good luck asshole yeah with a legal team uh with a long and storied history of defending itself yeah i mean fuck the new york times a lot of places you know i mean it's it's still like a fucking powerhouse it's a paper record you know i guess fuck the new york times slightly less than walpole though but uh very less slightly yeah less slightly but um you know one of the things that we see is online because there was a there was a bait on the baseball reddit uh today there was a discussion about it you've got to stop going on reddit i know baseball reddit's actually okay it's actually okay they do a pretty good job keeping shit locked down but sure yeah

no i i go oh we have a reddit now by the way i created one thank you it's just there in case someone tries uh go to reddit.com slash 10kl it's literally the letter the number in the letters there it is yeah and and and a reddit account that I created for this purpose. So anyway, if you're going on Reddit or on Twitter and you're saying, well, the judge found that he wasn't a threat. So that's why they didn't get, they didn't get the restraining order. I'm going to tell you something. There are things called legal tests.

So the legal test for restraining orders, he's got to pose a threat to this woman. The judge just has to say, he's not a threat. That doesn't's got to pose a threat to this woman the judge just has to say he's not a threat that doesn't mean he wasn't a threat the judge just has to do it so that that's how legal shit works if the judge just wants to be like well yeah it meets this fucking bar or it doesn't meet this bar i'm just going to say with it even if it's if even if by reading the the fucking statute and you read the law and you read the evidence you go actually no it meets it the judge just has to go no right now so all these fucking would-be lawyers on the fuck on fucking

reddit said well you know they found that he didn't do anything no he just denied a restraining order that's all that it was all was yeah so please learn to read. Like learn how like learn how basic legal things work. Like I'm not a lawyer, but I but I, you know, thought about it. And, you know, I did some things where I learned a lot more about law. Don't fucking be an idiot like that. Believe this shit. Fucking. It's fucking.

No, it's it's it's outkick slash barstool school of law bullshit nonsense which is just like these people who are just like you know want to disguise their sexism and misogyny and in new and clever ways and it's all the fucking same dude it always is it always has been and and trevor bauer is just a man he's a massive shithead he's a massive yeah there's if you're listening to this podcast you don't like him like there's no way you would like we hope yeah if you if you start this podcast you got through the boat story and the alien and the dick jokes and you're like oh finally some fucking philly sports shit and the first thing you hear is this like just just to stop just stop listening give it up give it up it's fine we're not gonna be mad honestly we'd prefer

if you weren't here no but do like like if you say something funny it's like we can make fun of you that's also good call in angry to the voicemail yeah get mad at us please get mad at us that would be that would be good yeah that way we don't just have John from Pittsburgh stumbling over his words at 2 a.m. Yeah. We love you, John. We do. Good guy. So let's transition slightly,

remaining within the best sport of all time to the Phillies. Right, yes, the Bruins. Here we go. Shit. Well, it's funny. On the TV Tropes page for, well, the Bruins Minute. Here we go. Shit. Well, it's funny. On the TVTropes page for Well, There's Your Problem, there's a mention of how you always try to turn WTYP into a sports podcast. And now, if you want to start one about this one, it's how you're trying to turn it into a fucking Bruins podcast. Yeah, go Bruins. Yeah, fuck. No. All right. Transactions. This is your transactions wire. and i don't know how much you know about these guys i don't man so so luke williams hit his last year his first major league

hit was a home run like a game winning home run shit always rules dude yeah and we trade now we traded him okay cool for some journeyman infielder will toffee i don't know if he's a journeyman or not i never heard of him and and and the best point the guy who's played for every team cash considerations yeah really cash considerations is a real uh blue collar player yeah oh there's a someone has made up a tops card on cash considerations. And it is very funny like that. Yeah. And then Adam Haisley, who in every time I play OTP out of the park baseball, he becomes like defensive player of the year or some shit like he's always like gold glove.

He was traded the White So for nice thank you oh oh he's played for the aves the mets the giants and now the phillies toffee has yeah so kind of a journeyman i don't think he's going to be a major leaguer i think he's triple a depth um we traded the white socks for mckinley moore who was a younger i think a younger guy i did i. I looked them up and then I forgot. So what does this mean? Does it mean anything? I know it means we freed up room on our 40 man roster. Got it.

I just Hazley. The Luke Williams was someone who could have been a nice like utility guy because he can play almost every position. Adam McKinley Moore must be good. He doesn't have a Wikipedia page. Yeah. Oh, he's a he's a prospect every position. Adam Hayden. McKinley Moore must be good. He doesn't have a Wikipedia page. Yeah. Oh, he's a prospect. Okay. Yeah, so he's got to sign the blue clause in Lakewood. Good luck, buddy. Well, he hasn't updated his

Twitter. He retweeted the news about him going to the Phillies. Yeah. Great. Yeah, so he's a bullpen prospect. Usually, alright, yeah, so that's fine.

I will say this dude is hilarious looking. He looks like a pitcher. I will give him that. Yeah, well, he looks like the creative player in MLB The Show. Yeah. He's got MLB The Show face.

Well, let's hope he can throw lasers. Yeah, I mean, we could get into his scouting report, but he's not a major prospect. But you know what? Welcome to the Jersey Shore Blue Calls, McKinley Moore. I hope you enjoy your time in Lakewood. New Jersey's best town. From the Hindenburg blew up.

Lakewood killed a bunch of Nazis. Isn't that where the cars for kids place, where that money goes to? Probably. I have no idea. Yeah. Yeah. It's like, isn't it like a hasidic like town oh yeah now it is yeah so so it's it's sort of yeah that's one of our uh yeah cars for kids is basically just a a jewish front yeah oh yeah so so yeah so so yeah good job uh

mckinley moore cool uh adam hazley that I feel bad because I kind of was rooting for this guy. He took a leave of absence last year for mental health reasons. Yeah, yeah. He was a number one prospect. He actually was decent on defense. He was like a number one, like a first round draft pick. And he just never kind of picked up after his first year, which is like a Phillies tradition.

So, it looks like Matt Verling is going to get the center field job which he's played pretty well in spring training and then mickey moniak will probably be the fourth outfielder saw that mickey moniak which which is that is a baseball name yeah yeah so um more philly's news uh so do you know about the meme shit around cassianos uh yeah it was the guy was doing an on-air apology right like uh was that the reds announcer not the yeah yeah yeah i'm a deep like you know i apologize i'm a you know perform man and you know cassianos hits the line driving to deep right field and that's the corner ball game yeah yeah. Yeah, yeah. Well, so Castellanos has a reputation now that whenever people talk during his at-bats

about serious shit, that he's always going to do something. So the Blue Jays pitching coach had a DUI. Nice. And he made an apology, and the Toronto Blue Jays announcers were reading it during Castellanos' at-bat when he got his first hit in a Phillies uniform.

I love that. I hope they timed that. I almost think at this point, because it's happened a couple of times with different things. I almost think it's a meme now. They're in on it. They're just like, all right, send it. Yeah, we're going to save this for Castellanos. So, yeah, he's a stud.

He looks good. I think a big part of our conversation when we were hanging out was how hot he was. Yeah. I was like, it's like, dude, guy's good looking, man. Like, you know, game recognizes game. You know, handsomeness recognizes handsomeness. And so, yeah. So spring training.

Like, the Phillies have looked good. Like, DeeDee looks good. So I think he's going to probably have an up year because last year he sucked. Right. Did we talk about his injury, how he was blaming it originally on the the vaccine the johnson johnson shot no i don't think we did god damn it dude so he originally blamed it blamed his lack of performance on getting the shot well apparently he had like bone spurs in his elbow that will do it and it was like misdiagnosed by the philly strangers so they so so he they thought it was they thought it was pseudo-gout.

They gave him medicine, and it ends up being bone spurs or bone chips. I can't remember which. And both not good, and they took care of that. And he's looked good this spring training. And Bryson Stott, man, he's our number one prospect. He is going to be the shortstop after Didi leaves this year. Didi is on his last contract year. But Alec Boehm, who's – man, he looks –

You had mentioned that he looked horrible. Oh, he still looks really bad. Oh, no. Oh, no. Yeah. Yeah. So, man, he might stop. I'm not sure if they're going to have Didi at shortstop.

They probably would have shortstop and move Didi over to third because Didi's not like super fast. And Bryson's a competent fielder at his position, but probably won't be a shortstop his whole career. But he looks really good. He was hitting something like 500 this spring training, which obviously doesn't matter in batting averages and everything, but 500 is good no matter what.

So he looks good. So I think their kind of opening day lineup is starting to congeal. And Bryson Stott looks like he's definitely earned a spot on the major league roster, unless they try to fuck him with service time and not bring him halfway through the year. Yep, so that's that.

That's baseball. Opening day is... Soon. Very soon. It's very soon. On the 8th. So I will be live tweeting that probably. All right, do it, man.

Yeah. What else we fucking got here? I opened the document. Oh. All right. Yeah, fuck Villanova. Yeah, so... The NCAA tournament happened, is happening.

We got down to the final four as of recording this. And Nick Mullen, which I don't know if you know him. Some of our fans will know him. The guy who did St. Peter's looks like Nick Mullen. Yeah. Yeah, and so Nick Mullen lost, and now he's back to saying slurs online. Yep.ing at saying slurs because that's like his whole comedic bit uh yeah so so they lost fuck nova there's like no there's no like underdog to root for

in the in the march madness now yeah uh you got the university of north carolina we've got kansas we've got duke and we've got nova uh i don't care no uh i was hoping for some sort of underdog thing like if saint peter's was the one i'd be interested now i just don't care anymore i just don't care exactly well north carolina don't care kentucky don't care whatever kansas whatever is this north carolina kansas nova who's the fourth what'd you say north carolina kansas duke duke nova yeah i don't care about the one thing is that like uh it's kind of cool that uh north carolina is playing duke uh yeah yeah that's in the final four, the stakes are high, but I just don't really care.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's funny. When we last talked about the Sixers' schedule, we accurately predicted their wins and losses.

Yeah, because we beat both LA teams. Mm-hmm. And then we lost to the Suns, and we lost to Milwaukee. Yeah, and we sort of knew that was coming. Probably could have won both the Suns and Bucs games. Kind of want to focus on the Bucs. Yeah, that was the closer.

Yeah, it was what, by two, right? Yeah, just by two. Yeah. This team, I mean, I feel bad for saying it because I do like the guy, but DeAndre Jordan, he's unplayable. Yeah. Well, did you hear about Andre Drummond saying he's not staying in Brooklyn? Yeah.

So, fuck, and he's younger than in Brooklyn? Yeah. So, fuck. And he's younger than I thought. He's, what, 28? Yeah. Bring him fucking back. Right. Bring him back. Yeah, because he was a very good backup.

Totally serviceable backup center. Did everything asked of him. Occasionally could play hero ball. Yep. That's what you need. Yeah. usually could play hero ball yep that's what you need yeah uh the sixers i think need to figure out what they're gonna do when joel sits which has been a problem yeah the entire time joel's been on this well joel's been playing meaningful minutes yeah uh i don't really know what the

answer is i think maybe you you do just chuck the kids into the wind and sort of say good luck to you, which is baptism by fire, but you're in the NBA for a reason. So, you know, good luck to you. Yeah, I mean, this is going to be hard and played really well yesterday against the Bucs. 32 points on pretty efficient shooting. Yeah, so that's good. I mean, you know, that's a that's a those are the defending champs. You want to have your best game against tough teams as opposed to just stat padding. Yeah, I don't know what they're going to do.

I think the answer is just to throw the kids at them and understand that DeAndre Jordan's not going to get you very far in the playoffs. Yeah. And you have to load manage Joel. You have to. Yeah, there has to be. I feel like we say this every fucking podcast. It's like we need to this offseason kind of put together a decent bench. And, you know, we had it's funny because if you don't trade, it's I really wonder, like, if you don't trade for Harden, I really wonder what this team would look like comparatively. Right.

You know, I, you know know I'm hearing and we talked about the sort of like Harden vitriol about you know I think the team is better with him and especially the turn Ben into Harden essentially

yeah yeah no I mean I mean I don't want to say like oh it was a mistake trade or anything like that i think it was a pretty good move all things considered but you know it did take a part of the team that was working really well and it shipped that off and hopefully we can get part of that back in the off season. But you know, I, this team, it's, it's just frustrating because you have a team who's it's a good team. Like, like, don't get me wrong. It's a good NBA team. It's, you know, top four, top four seed team, but it's,

where are we going? What exit, what round are we going to exit this time? Cause I don't think it's a, it's a, it's a finals team. Ignore, ignore, ignore when we got excited and happy after the first like the first couple games that were uh what's his name hardened just tore shit up and we thought this was a finals lock i think that was just me right now i yeah yeah i uh i'm i'm hopeful you know but yeah it doesn't really it doesn't really feel like as magical as it did it doesn't really especially feel like this team is going it doesn't feel like a guaranteed second round exit but

it doesn't feel you know like I think Sixers Twitter hasn't sort of come back down to earth yet there's a lot of sort of hand waving about losses, especially the bad one to the Heat,

who are not especially playing well, and the shellacking at the hands of the Celtics was sort of hand-waved away. And I just, you know, I don't know, man. I mean, this team could plausibly play a fully healthy and operational Nets team, and that's not a matchup I would especially like. this team could plausibly play a fully healthy and operational nets team and like that's not a matchup i would especially like no yeah that's that's that that matchup scares me

you know um because that team is is was underperforming because of the fucking covid restrictions right you know that's a legit team and um and now they're fully operational yeah so so yeah we'll see um a lot of people are calling for doc said like that like we talked about this before uh about his coaching i'm i'm not so much like i know a little bit about basketball strategy stuff like that but i'm not super into it i don't know if that's that's something we need to talk about but i guess you see how this offseason goes we'll see how the season goes see how the team gels you know you do right they are all learning to play with each other still yeah exactly i think there's always this assumption

that uh that team should just be able to mesh right away and and right you know that's not especially i don't think that's true i mean i just don't think that's true yeah and it's a sport where everyone's like like you have to be able to read each other's body you know body language so much so quickly right yeah and it's and it's yeah it's all snap decisions and stuff like that and yeah so and there's always a clock running it's not it's not an easy sport like baseball where just anyone can play right yeah we're we're playing it at right field yeah we're gonna platoon it yeah uh you want to talk about football sure um i'm not sure if we talked about how we're getting renewed his contract uh i feel like we

might have we we've mentioned it in passing yeah yeah i mean as i've said and i think as as you agree like uh if you could take the ability to draft away from howie yeah uh i would i would vouch for him every year it's just that he's really good at at extracting like you know from the i guess from a gm view he's really good at extracting value he signs decent contracts like he's very good at extracting his worker surplus value right exactly uh because we we we are morons uh but he can't draft and i'm a little terrified of what he's going to do in the draft this year. Yeah. Because he sucks. Yeah.

I hope that this is sort of like there is something internally where like, all right, we're going to get a draft guy, and he's going to be the guy who scouts and drafts. Yeah, but how his ego couldn't take that. And understandably so. Mine couldn't either. Oh, really? Okay. oh really okay yeah if you told me like hey we're we're getting someone to like do like half your job because you suck like but we're gonna keep you around oh so uh uh do you want to start edit do you want to re-edit the podcast again do you want to take that job back fuck no fuck no i don't oh prepare for the 650 megabyte wave file it's coming guys

oh lossless the flat the flack file of your mechanical keyboard all right did we make that joke on the pot see this is the problem we've hung out so much the fucking last couple days we did it's it yeah i i tweeted about this other day it's like i'm confusing jokes i've said on the podcast jokes i've said in person oh it sucks i did the same thing dude responses that i made in my head to shit you've said like you or others have said on their podcast that's tough the life of a pod of life of a potter was never an easy one tom yeah yeah we didn't choose this life we yeah it shows us drafted uh i would do want to point out that at uh either jeffrey lurie or howie roseman's news conference uh jeff lurie there was a

you know a reaffirmation that jalen is there is their qb uh and we're bringing kelly green uniforms back in 2023 so that's exciting uh i don't know man i mean we'll see with the drafts you know there's a lot the eagles have been sort of quiet on the on the trade front yeah uh we signed i can't remember his name but a linebacker from the Chargers. There's sort of a thought there I saw, which was like the Chargers are loading up for a Super Bowl run. So like, what does it say that the Eagles were able to get this guy? It's a one year, eight million dollar deal. So, you know, the Eagles do need to reload.

So I get it. I do want to take a second to uh read what jim ursay who owns the indianapolis cults uh said about our our former uh white supremacist boy uh carson wentz is he all right is he a white supremacist is carson wentz a white supremacist? Yeah, man. Come on now. No, all right. So, okay, I'm not defending him. He probably holds those beliefs, right? We know that he's a fucking chud. Right. But I just wasn't sure if he actually said something. That's all.

If he had said something else. I guess, yeah, the values of Indianapolis die born with him. Shit. But, yeah. That's how I'm going to get canceled. I'm going to be like, how Carson Wentz isn't a white supremacist?

Read my op-ed on New York Times and subscribe to my sub stack. But don't subscribe to my sub stack. Yeah. Let me read this. Go ahead. Quote, I think the worst thing you can do is have a mistake and try to keep living with it going forward for us it was something we had to move away from as a franchise it was very obvious for us the fit just wasn't right i don't know why a lot of times you don't know why but you know it isn't and it was important for us to move in a

different direction no disrespect to jacksonville remember, they needed to win one of their two final games against either the Raiders or the Jaguars. They lost both and missed out on the playoffs. No disrespect to Jacksonville, but I mean, they're the worst team in the league, or as they said. You play well and hard for the first quarter or so, and they're looking to go to their locker room and clean it out. I've never seen anything like that in my life.

You say, my God, there's something wrong here. It needs to be corrected. I think that we feel like we did that is fucking hilarious that is so fucking funny it is amazing this dude like and i like obviously like you feel bad for the dude on some level because he was never the same after the clowny hit uh but like at the same time that that is amazing and he's gonna be back in the division and i look forward to the eagles defense just absolutely bodying him into the into the core of the earth oh my god apparently frank reich apologized to ursae for vouching for wins that's fucking funny oh man. Oh, man. You got cowled there. That's Jim Irsay's Kiss the Ring bullshit.

Yeah. Oh, my God. Yeah, no. Sorry I said this guy was good. Yeah. Oh, my God. That sucks. I'm telling you, this is my conspiracy theory,

is the Phillies, not the Phillies, the Eagles knew about the Clowney hit. They knew that he had fucking like that was like that was a TBI. Right. And they didn't say anything about it because that would have fucking tanked his trade value. So they let him kind of play. Knowing he was he was not the same guy. Yeah.

And it was Lurie's press conference, by the way, today or yesterday. Was it? Yeah, it was Lurie's. Apparently his kid is going to start working in the business. So that's terrific. I got to say, as owners go, Lurie's not awful. As owners go. Right. No, he's actually not horrible

and he's willing to he's willing to spend money yeah then that's sort of i think i think i like ultimately all you can ask in an owner is like willing to not sign total shitheads and willing to like open up the checkbook i think you need both those things uh and and and my understanding is that lori is kind of i mean he's a he's like a he's a lib my understanding yeah yeah said like he should he should apparently like i remember a couple years ago them saying something about like he had no interest in supporting Trump or something like that. Right, right. Yeah, yeah. So, I mean, he's a lib. He's like a – exactly.

Yes. Honk if you hate liberals. I do, but not for the reasons you think. Right, exactly. But, yeah, so we could do worse as an owner um yeah you can always do worse that's important to remember uh you can have jerry jones you can have jim ursay oh boy uh we did we forgot to mention the the kelly green uh unis i mentioned it for a second. Did you? Okay. I must have zoned out. They're coming back.

That's exciting. Not as the jersey, though. No, it's an alt. Which I think we should go – like the Kelly green is just such an underutilized color. It's sort of – I don't know. I'd like that. It's like why I like the Oakland Athletics uniform so much because green is such an underused color.

Celtics actually have cool jerseys too. Green is an underused jersey color in American sports. All right, and you said – and I didn't know this. I didn't know that Malcolm Jenkins retired. Did that happen today? Philly legend. Yeah, absolutely. Won two Super Bowls, one with the Saints, one with the Birds.

Absolute legend. We wish him the best in his retirement. yeah absolutely one two Super Bowls one with the Saints one with the Birds absolute legend I we wish him the best in his retirement I yeah key to the city of Camden

I think he has yeah he's from Piscataway he's from where Rutgers is notably he went to Ohio State isn't that

isn't that is it Piscataway Piscataway yeah you're probably right okay I wasn't sure. I thought I was saying it wrong. I never had to pronounce it. Okay.

I just always lied. I was just like New Brunswick. Yeah. Yeah. I thought you pulled a Roz there. Yeah, that's me, baby. Yeah. You're saying with Ohio State?

Yeah. Yeah. Oh, the Ohio State universe. Yeah. All right. Hockey. We got nothing go bruins uh no loss to the fucking leaf six to four last night um brad marshand did nothing wrong uh wayman needs help uh that's all i got uh go union uh three three wins in a draw that's pretty good i just gotta someone sent me like a dm with like

oh this is these are like the streams that you can get them at it's like all right i will eventually watch it but lately it's because i've been watching the fucking philly spring training games at the same time and hell yeah the phillies are gonna beat the union i'm sorry like that. I don't, I'm not as dismissive of football, of footy, as you are. But, you know. Right, so yeah, go Union, cool. That's nice. Shit, there was something,

there was something about soccer internationally that I can't remember. Oh, the fucking Italian team got beat. I think it's the World Cup. North Macedonia. Oh, that fucking rocks,acedonia i made the mistake back when the when it was the euro cup final i made the mistake of supporting italy because you know i do have an infinity for italy but i didn't really i didn't realize the italian team was full of racists oh hell yeah dude and and that while england is full of racists the english team was full of pretty cool dudes yes so i made that mistake and and now i'm just gonna be

like suck it italy good good man yeah yeah good opinions uh i i like italy as a as the italian people for the most part are okay um except when you're talking about immigrants yeah that it's not so good yeah yeah fuck god damn it's such a beautiful country good food i'll co-sign that um what else we got oh fuck uh i couldn't come up with a fucking years of lead joke fast enough we'll cut that out. All right. Uh, mailbag. We only have one thing, which was that when I was,

we were talking about Scherzer breaking up the, uh, or Tabata breaking up Scherzer's no hitter. Right. It wasn't by bunt. It was, he leaned in to get hit by a pitch. Good for him,

man. What a fucking rock. What a dick. And, and we, and we figured out what the fuck the guy's name zach um that that sent that in i got the name wrong there's like a bunch there's a multi-layered pun that was explained to me but it has its roots in when the socialist rifle association first started on the disc well now

on the discord we had like a slack channel and wow corporate corporate boys yeah it was actually pretty good until it got too big and one of the things is there was a lot of joes and a lot of zacks so there was a zach caucus at a joe caucus that's funny and um yeah we used to have a joke well we used to have several joe caucus members one of them showed up to a range day wearing uh what is essentially what i could describe as as andy from toy story get up okay yeah and uh that wasn't that was it or like one of the toys andy's just the human oh no what's what's fucking woody woody a woody ass outfit how to text there's a snake in my boot yeah that was that was interesting uh way to way to go low-key and not attract attention to us crescent 1911 while i say you're my favorite deputy dude he didn't even have like a fucking cowboy gun too it's like at least bring a fucking six

shooter that you're gonna fire by by holding the trigger down and slamming the hammer right at least do something cool like that like no it was an ar okay no imagination man yeah no yeah that's fine uh shouts out to ar-15s where you accidentally install the trigger pin backwards you just get the trigger works its way out while you're shooting.
