It's the Breakfast Club, bitches! Donkey of the Day with Charlemagne Tha God. I don't know why y'all keep letting him get y'all like this. Oh no, Duval. It's not me, it's y'all. Okay, Donkey of the Day for Tuesday, May 21st goes to former Boston Red Sox player Austin Maddox. Now let the record show Austin Maddox is a Jacksonville native. What does your Uncle Charla always say about the great state of Florida?

The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida, and Austin Maddox is no exception. Austin Maddox retired from baseball in 2020. He decided to pursue a career in entertainment and he just landed a role on the reboot of To Catch a Predator. What do you mean, Uncle Charlotte? He just landed a role on the reboot of To Catch a Predator. Well, let's go to News 4 Jacksonville for the report, please. Day and night for five days, Jacksonville Sheriff's Office led a multi-agency takedown of men trying to have sex with children.

The solicitations began online, behind a cell phone or computer. Then the men began having conversations with their intended target. This undercover operation began on April 24, 2024. Sheriff T.K. Waters revealed 27 men were arrested for trying to have sex with kids. In most cases, the men thought they were talking to a 14-year-old girl until they met JSO face-to-face. A shock to the baseball world.

Among the arrested, former UF and Red Sox baseball player, Austin Maddox. This is video of Maddox going to a house where he thinks he's about to meet a teen girl, but instead he's met with the men of JSO taken down and arrested. Maddox got a weird case. Why is he around? This is the

only man in the history of baseball to make it to the majors and beg to get sent back to the minors okay there is a movie that came out in 1998 that could absolutely be the name of austin maddox biopic and it's titled major league back to the minors okay the thing that is so interesting about these kinds of stories is you have to find them right these aren't the kind of headlines that find you for some strange reason stories like austin maddox don't take on a life of their own the algorithm just seems to not circulate them as much as they do other stories. But if a former Boston Red Sox Major League Baseball player is being accused of soliciting sex over the internet from people who they believe to be children,

it's worth a discussion. Now, I looked up some of his stats, and I really don't even know how he ever had a Major league career because his baseball pitch velocity was 69 miles per hour, which ironically would be amazing for a 14 year old girl playing softball before a grown ass man in major league baseball. Not so much. If they ever refer to Austin Maddox as a freak of nature on the baseball field, it's not because of his athletic ability. Now, he may be a freaky-ass pitcher when he's a free man, but you go to prison for having sex with minors or trying to have sex with minors, you're going to become a catcher.

Now, to be fair, he was never really built for the major leagues. He made his MLB debut in 2017 after spending several years inside minors. I mean, the minor leagues, just to be clear. But a persistent shoulder injury denied him the chance to play, and he was released from the team in 2019, retiring shortly after. I don't know if this guy was good or not, okay? He was good enough to get to the majors, but injuries kept him from being great. But maybe, just maybe, he should have spent more time in the dugouts,

working on his pitch instead of pitching the teens to get the dugout. Now, his defense attorney, James Hill, said he intends to fight the allegations against him and will enter a plea of not guilty should formal charges be filed. How are you going to plead not guilty when there is a whole correspondence between you and the girl you thought was 14? They got you, Austin. Okay, you began communicating with an agent who was pretending to be an underage girl on April 28th.

You were informed the girl was 14. You expressed your intent to have sex with her. You then agreed to meet her at the prearranged location, and you were arrested at said location, okay? You were arrested at the location y'all agreed to meet at. How is that not guilty? Furthermore, I can't believe we live in a society where the catcher predator exists

and predators are still getting caught. In the wild, the predators are supposed to be the small ones. Why aren't y'all evolving? Okay, D.A. James Hill, you're wasting your time. Your client got caught, and there is absolutely zero reason that a grown man should be trying to seventh inning stretch out anybody underage. He is charged with four felony counts,

including traveling to meet, okay, said minor, after using a computer to solicit a child. Look, man, Austin, you need to keep your screwballs to solicit a child. Look, man. Austin, you need to keep your screwballs to yourself and worry about getting to first base with somebody your own age. Do prisons still have baseball teams? I don't think so. You don't think so? No.

Oh. Well, Austin, let us know when you get there. Please let Remy Ma give Austin Maddox the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw. Hee-haw. Hee-haw. You stupid mother-----. Are you dumb?

Oh, it was a delay. Yeah, a little delay. Oh, okay. Donkey of the Day is brought to you by the law office of Michael S. Laminsoff. Don't be a donkey. Dial pound 250 on your cell and say the bull if you've been hurt in a construction accident. That's pound 250 from your cell and say the bull. Wake that ass up.

Early in the morning. The Breakfast Club.
