Chilly
ah You know, we'll get into, you know, so a wide variety of topics ah here on the Mean Edition. um Again, if you want, you know, everybody, all the other podcasts a little bit nicer. The Seattle guys are by far the nicest.
00:02:03
Chilly

Debate: 100 Whirly Ball Players vs. Gorilla
00:02:38
Chilly
And.
00:02:38
Sully Shaheed
So...
00:02:38
Chilly
And stay tuned for the end. Could 100 Warley Ballers beat a gorilla?
00:02:44
Sully Shaheed
That was a fun conversation. I'm glad we get to revisit that because you thought of a couple key names that we might have to throw in that debate.
00:02:51
Chilly
Yeah.
00:02:52
Sully Shaheed
So,
00:02:53
Chilly
Yeah.
Seattle Trip Reflections
00:02:54
Sully Shaheed
yeah, I'm behind that.
00:02:54
Chilly
Hey, man, if we go center by, if we were to legit go center by center, our center ain't so bad. i think we gotta, to like, we we we give a lot of good fighters to the fight.
00:03:05
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I think we bring more quality, obviously, than quantity. But, yeah, I think the quality of our squad could –
00:03:11
Chilly
Yeah, we're not bad.
00:03:13
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I don't think that andll we'll get there. We'll get there. We'll get there.
00:03:16
Chilly
We'll get there.
00:03:16
Sully Shaheed
We'll get there. We're sure. For as sure. So Chile, couple of weeks out. Nationals. It's about that time to fly out to Seattle. I got to get your opinion, man. what's ah What are you looking forward to the most about the Seattle trip?
00:03:31
Chilly
um I mean, Seattle is one of my favorite places to go, although it did have one of my you know worst Worley Ball experiences there. willing to put that in the past. We'll kind of get into that. Actually, a little bit later when we talk about the the controversial Chicago D team, which isn't really controversial, but we'll get to there.
00:03:48
Chilly
um But again, man, I love I love the city. um the the center, again, obviously, it's a little, you know, tight. um But again, I like their cars in court, so playing there isn't, you know, it's no big deal to me.
00:04:04
Chilly
Cars are pretty similar to ours, a little bit different, but nothing crazy. So it's actually probably my favorite center to play at, minus our own.
00:04:08
Sully Shaheed
Right.
00:04:11
Chilly
So I'm excited.
Nationals Experiences and Player Rankings
00:04:14
Chilly
I'm excited. Plus, I do enjoy the actual city itself.
00:04:18
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, the city is beautiful. um There's lots of stuff to do. The only my only gripe with the city is there's one main highway. One is one way in one way out.
00:04:28
Sully Shaheed
You know what saying? So like other than the traffic, but like, you know, Chicago has horrible in traffic. Michigan traffic's not so bad. Cleveland, there's so many like different highways and you can take to get around. like Ours isn't bad either. but like I don't know, man. That one way in and one way out with Seattle is kind of kind of disturbing to me.
00:04:47
Sully Shaheed
But other than that, a fantastic effing city.
00:04:49
Chilly
It's a little rough, but we we'll we'll make do.
00:04:54
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. Yeah, first time I was there, i did the float. The float was fun. oh The whirly ball itself sucked ass because that tournament, again, we'll we'll get there when we talk about a controversial D-team.
00:05:07
Sully Shaheed
That kind of sucked ass. And then the second time I went, almost passed away. So that was not fun either. So um I'm trying to... remain positive about this trip to Seattle.
00:05:21
Sully Shaheed
I would like to stay healthy. i would like to stay happy. And I would like to play some good whirly balls. So those are, those are the goals coming up here in a few weeks.
00:05:27
Chilly
Yeah, i would really I would really prefer not to be running for my life in downtown Seattle, up and down them hills, to ah find you something at a pharmacy, arguing with the lady like, hey man, this is this dude's about to die. i need it now.
00:05:45
Sully Shaheed
i don't think ah I don't think a lot of people know that story. i think us Cleveland people know it because you guys had to go through it.
00:05:49
Chilly
I don't think so either.
00:05:51
Sully Shaheed
But I don't think a lot of people outside the center know that I almost literally passed away in Seattle by eating the wrong food. So that was an experience.
00:06:01
Chilly
Oh, dude.
00:06:04
Sully Shaheed
The whole asthma attack, the throat swelling, the the face swelling. the i mean, i yeah, I was near death if you guys didn't get that medicine for me.
00:06:04
Chilly
Dude, what a
00:06:10
Chilly
what?
00:06:13
Chilly
Yeah, dude. I just running up and down them hills, running through the city, trying to find like a CVS. Oh my goodness.
00:06:21
Sully Shaheed
We're just trying to have some fun at an arcade. And nope, nope, nope. Sorry, Sully's about to die. big deal.
00:06:29
Sully Shaheed
But other than that.
00:06:29
Chilly
you're like your face your face was but was out to here.
00:06:32
Chilly
Like your cheek was literally out to here. It's holy shit.
00:06:35
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, my biggest fear after that was um were they going to let me on the plane?
00:06:41
Sully Shaheed
like I literally thought they were not going to let me fly. And I knew i was going to be able to come home.
00:06:41
Chilly
Oh, bro, right.
00:06:45
Chilly
I didn't think so either. yeah I didn't think so either. i probably would have stayed. I probably would have stayed with you, but they put...
00:06:51
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, but luckily, luckily, they let me fly. I got home. I rested for like three straight days. And here we are, back and better than ever. Crawling my way up in the ranks of defenders in Whirly Ball.
00:07:05
Sully Shaheed
Don't at me.
00:07:05
Chilly
and Ninth best. everybody Everybody mentions it.
00:07:13
Sully Shaheed
i like oh I like how some of my words taken to heart, you know, by a select group of people. um I remember last year we went to when we went to to Chicago, and the first man I was confronted by you-know-who.
00:07:28
Sully Shaheed
Joe Tiffany was not happy but i that I picked freaking Flores as my favorite whirly ball player.
00:07:29
Chilly
No, man. um man
00:07:35
Sully Shaheed
And it, this motherfucker ain't won nothing. You gonna take Chris Flores. And I'm like, listen. Drunk Tiffany. Okay. Don't be coming at me like that.
00:07:47
Chilly
me
00:07:47
Sully Shaheed
You are America's favorite player. Okay. I have the right to be contrarian and select someone one else that I enjoy watching play the game rolly ball.
00:07:59
Sully Shaheed
I have the right.
00:08:01
Chilly
he was
00:08:01
Sully Shaheed
And obviously, go ahead.
00:08:03
Chilly
He was pretty upset. he was pretty upset
00:08:06
Sully Shaheed
I mean, Joe Tiffany is my man. You know what I'm saying? He's he's good, dude. Great rolly ball player. but man, man. Somebody know he's in my top five favorite players.
00:08:16
Sully Shaheed
You know, if I had a top five, he'd be like five. But, you know, I steal my mans.
00:08:21
Chilly
Yeah.
00:08:24
Chilly
I still get yelled at by Kyle that I ranked him too low on the goalie list.
00:08:31
Chilly
So if we do the list, I'll bump Kyle up. He's made a hell of a sales pitch over the last year to move up.
00:08:37
Sully Shaheed
Okay. Okay. All right. Well, we we can reveal...
00:08:41
Chilly
We'll see. And we'll see how he plays, you know. Yeah.
00:08:44
Sully Shaheed
I was going to say, this is a post-Nationals type of ranking, okay? Because things can be adjusted on the fly. So after this set of Nationals, there might be some new contenders, you know i'm saying, in the top 10.
00:08:57
Sully Shaheed
there There might be some shuffling going around. But ah yeah, I think post-Nationals, after we do the ah you know the review, I think that would be an appropriate time to consider some some ranking changes. How about that?
00:09:09
Chilly
Yeah, yeah, no, for sure. You know, we'll we'll let the bust out the list again. You know, you have some people not playing. So obviously they get booted off the list because we only do current.
00:09:17
Sully Shaheed
Right? Yeah?
00:09:19
Chilly
So, you know, some spots open up, you know, we got fresh blood in there.
00:09:19
Sully Shaheed
Right?
00:09:22
Chilly
So, you know, we'll see.
00:09:23
Sully Shaheed
Oh, yeah.
00:09:24
Chilly
We'll see what happens, you know, see who can who can make the list.
00:09:28
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I'm content on defending my title as number nine, all right?
00:09:33
Chilly
but Dude, just ask everybody everybody.
00:09:34
Sully Shaheed
I'm not-
00:09:36
Chilly
Everybody knows you are number nine.
00:09:38
Sully Shaheed
Hey, listen, i might um might move my um I might move my damn self up, okay? Because already know there's going be some fucking backlash. Oh, he's only playing C. Man, I'm going to block that ass in A2, okay?
00:09:53
Sully Shaheed
Okay? Anyway, let's move on. Cleveland, how are you feeling about our
Team Structures and Strategies
00:10:01
Sully Shaheed
teams? How are you feeling about your team in particular? and and And are we going to make some noise coming out to Seattle this year?
00:10:09
Chilly
I mean, I think so. I mean, I'll start with, you know, ah you know, Sean and ty um you know, obviously playing with, ah you know, some of the Seattle guys and Gary Long.
00:10:19
Chilly
I'm very excited to watch the, you know, kind of the misfit team there, see how they're going to pull it together. um i mean, they do have a Gil on their team, so I'm expecting him to carry them to a title.
00:10:34
Chilly
Your last name is Gil. Uh, all the, do you all du the Samoan dynasty, the guild dynasty.
00:10:36
Sully Shaheed
It's the dynasty. It's the rock. It's the dynasty.
00:10:42
Sully Shaheed
The Gill dynasty, it grows.
00:10:43
Chilly
Um,
00:10:44
Sully Shaheed
It grows infinitely.
00:10:47
Chilly
um so excited to watch them. Uh, I think our C teams are going make some noise, man. You guys have, all of you guys have been playing really good. Uh, a lot of growth, uh, out of our C players, uh, not only from your team, but from the other team as well, with Michael, Josh, Ryan, Craig, and Jim.
00:11:04
Chilly
Um, You know, so again, i think our C teams are going to be improved from last year. and then for us, a guys, you know, it's just kind of this business as usual. Obviously, we kind of we just, you know, we got the addition of, you know, Patrick from Seattle. So a lot of experience.
00:11:24
Chilly
that he brings, uh, driving the cars. Uh, he makes us taller. Uh, he's, you know, that's a big boy back there with Jarrett, man. That's, it's a lot of hype back there minus, you know, Brad and then my extended ass. So again, you know, there's a, there's a lot of hype back there. So, um, it'll be fun to play with Patrick kind of work out that dynamic. And I think he's going to open up a lot of stuff for us. Um,
00:11:51
Chilly
So i'm I'm excited, especially with it being in Seattle, um having that experience and that driver on our team is going to help for sure.
00:12:01
Sully Shaheed
The damn strength ain't gonna hurt. That's for freaking sure. so
00:12:06
Sully Shaheed
I'm very excited to watch you guys play. I'm excited to see a lot of the teams play, to be honest. You know, that's um the Misfit D team, like you mentioned. You know, i i mean, I lobbied hard for Ty to play C.
00:12:06
Chilly
No
00:12:18
Sully Shaheed
And I know he gets the experience D. He should experience D. But, you know, his growth and his, you know, acumen for the game has grown exponentially, you know, because he got that fever basically last year when he came to watch us play.
00:12:22
Chilly
Right.
00:12:32
Sully Shaheed
And he's been...
00:12:32
Chilly
Dude, that man got hooked.
00:12:35
Sully Shaheed
He's been hooked ever since, baby.
Tournament Structure and Personal Experiences
00:12:37
Chilly
Dude.
00:12:37
Sully Shaheed
A nice father-son dichotomy with him and Eric, man. I think that's going to be cool to see in the future, you know, when they do get to play on the same team together. um But like I said, you know, I lobbied to play with him this year.
00:12:48
Sully Shaheed
You know, I would not i have been opposed to Ty playing C at all. I mean, and even Little Sean. Little Sean is the same way. You know, like he's grown exponentially. He does get pouty.
00:12:59
Sully Shaheed
You know, he's he's he's a bit pouty, ah you know.
00:13:02
Chilly
Damn it!
00:13:03
Sully Shaheed
Damn it!
00:13:04
Sully Shaheed
ah you know but But minus that, um he's been playing well. And, you know, I was very proud of him, especially that last game that we played at our last practice when he was on my team. And, you know, he was picking and he did everything a picker should do.
00:13:05
Chilly
its
00:13:15
Chilly
Yeah.
00:13:19
Sully Shaheed
And I was very, very proud of him, gave him props. And I saw a little smirk.
00:13:22
Chilly
and and billie m And Billy still yelled at him.
00:13:25
Sully Shaheed
It's all little smirk on his face. And Billy will still...
00:13:28
Chilly
Yeah.
00:13:29
Sully Shaheed
Well, Billy yelled at Ricky. He yells at me. It don't matter. It don't matter. Billy's going to yell at you. Okay? He's fucking yell at you.
00:13:38
Chilly
he doesn't yell at you
00:13:38
Sully Shaheed
But... He gently talks to me saying, stop shooting that fag shot, which he likes to call it. And every time I drain it over fucking Jared, he don't say shit.
00:13:49
Sully Shaheed
You think I'm shooting through Jared? No. I'm laughing it over his ass. I learned that shit from you. so please let me shoot my shot. All right.
00:13:59
Chilly
yeah Yeah, I tend to stay, i tend to not fall victim to the Slim Reaper.
00:14:05
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, man. Slim Reaper. Definitely. Definitely. We, uh, we, I think, uh, what was it on the, uh, Chicago podcast? They were talking about nicknames and slim is a self-proclaimed nickname, correct?
00:14:19
Chilly
ah
00:14:19
Sully Shaheed
Or did someone deem him that?
00:14:22
Chilly
I don't think he gave himself that nickname. I think somebody gave it to him.
00:14:27
Sully Shaheed
Okay. All right.
00:14:27
Chilly
Or he's a really big fan of Devonta Smith.
00:14:31
Sully Shaheed
Right. Right. Which is fine as well, but he's a Broncos fan though. He you don't give a damn about the Eagles.
00:14:37
Chilly
Oh, God, no. Yeah, no. I don't think he dubbed himself. I don't think he gave himself that nickname. I think somebody gave it to him. It wasn't me, but I think somebody gave it to him.
00:14:47
Sully Shaheed
That's fair. I mean, it's a nice nickname. I'll give him that. I'll give him that.
00:14:52
Chilly
It fits. It fits the bill.
00:14:54
Sully Shaheed
Oh, without question. I mean, he doesn't just deflect your shots. That motherfucker is sending you packing. Ask his highlight reel. Look at his TikTok. It's a whole damn highlight reel.
00:15:05
Sully Shaheed
Ain't that right, Timmy? Ain't that right? a Sorry. But he's got all of us on the fucking highlight reel, so it ain't him. It's everybody. So...
00:15:15
Chilly
Yeah, I mean, James is on it. Sam's on it.
00:15:18
Sully Shaheed
Yeah.
00:15:19
Chilly
Yeah.
00:15:19
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. You know, you know, you got to have some balls to make a whole ass. I remember this one time I blocked James Gill, man. Shit. My fondest memory was a James Gill is him giving me a handshake and making me a scoop. And that was the happiest moment of my worthy ball career.
00:15:39
Sully Shaheed
I mean, it wasn't, but you those are my only interactions with Mr. Gill. So. But moving forward, so you have confidence in our teams. That's great. Confidence in yourself, of course.
00:15:51
Sully Shaheed
But as far as the actual whirly ball goes, as you mentioned, that the the cars are very similar to ours. um Do you think that you think that gives us a slight advantage or doesn't at least put the advantage that the Seattle guys would have against you know us or other centers? Because like I said, our cars run virtually the same.
00:16:16
Chilly
Yeah. I mean, the Seattle cars, I think push a lot better than ours, a lot more torquey, especially in the front. Um, where i think in our cars, if you kind of like make a tiny mistake, you can recover, not in their cars.
00:16:32
Chilly
You're asked to pushed out of the way. Like, you know, there's no, there's like, you're off by inch this much. You're done. Um, So they'll they'll drive a little bit different, but pretty similar.
00:16:45
Chilly
um Obviously the Seattle guys are going to have an advantage. It's their cars, their courts, you know, backboards, all that fun shit essentially. um But I think it gives us an advantage at least to start over the other centers.
00:16:55
Sully Shaheed
Yeah.
00:17:00
Sully Shaheed
Oh, yeah. yeah
00:17:01
Sully Shaheed
Right.
00:17:01
Chilly
Right.
00:17:01
Chilly
Like, so it's not going to take, it shouldn't take our guys very long to be acclimated. um And, you know, obviously through our practices, you know, you know, us A guys have stressed that guys to you on how to position your cars and where you're going to lose at their center versus where you're not going to lose. So, um i mean, I think for us, like I said, I love playing at that center. so I like the cars ain't gonna make no difference to me. And I think for our center, it should be pretty similar.
00:17:35
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I'm excited. I'm very excited. Like I said, you know, as long as we get some quality court time, get used to the cars. Like I said, I think it's a I think it's a advantage for us because it won't take as long.
00:17:48
Sully Shaheed
to get used to those cars, but you're talking like the Minnesota guys, the, the, the, the Michigan guys who, you know, use still clutches on one of their courts, you know, like court one and court two in Michigan is completely different game.
00:18:00
Sully Shaheed
It's a completely different game. Not just, you know, the cars, it's completely different, but you know, having those guys adjust and um you know, just, just making sure they're competitive, um which obviously they will be.
00:18:05
Chilly
Yeah.
00:18:13
Sully Shaheed
um And we'll talk about team structures here in a little bit, but, i think dave I think they've got um a fighting chance, just like every center. I think every center has a fighting chance, no matter you know what center you're at or what car.
00:18:26
Sully Shaheed
I mean, come tournament day, everything's out the damn window and throw it all out and let's fight it out. So I'm pretty pumped about it. I'm pretty pump So um i think I think we can get into it, man.
D Division Predictions and Controversies
00:18:40
Sully Shaheed
let's ah let let's Let's see what we got cooking in every division.
00:18:44
Sully Shaheed
Let's make some predictions. Let's talk a little controversy and kind of go from there.
00:18:49
Chilly
controversy controversy
00:18:50
Sully Shaheed
Controversy. So let's ah but start from the bottom. Let's start from the bottom now we're here. Let's talk about this D division, man. What what what are we looking at for D? What centers are representing in D?
00:19:03
Chilly
yeah uh i mean obviously in the uh in the d division um you know you have some seattle teams uh you you have chicago I believe you do have a a Texas team here.
00:19:17
Chilly
um Again, you have, yeah, so right now d in the D division, you're looking at six teams. um So, again, three Seattle, our Misfit team, Chicago, in Texas. So, again, it's kind of hard to judge the D division. um I'm making picks.
00:19:38
Chilly
um Obviously, we do have the controversial ah D team, which has four players, uh, kind of dropping back down into D. Um, it was voted on the committee and it was, uh, approved.
00:19:53
Chilly
Um, so they are fairly in D. So let me stress that now, initially I did vote yes. Um, and that's what my vote was for. ah but truthfully, had I, ah had Noah kind of made his point, uh,
00:20:09
Chilly
you know, on our committee that he kind of made on their live stream, I probably would have switched my vote. um Obviously, so Noah's point was, is that Chicago, um you know, whatever you want to call it, stack the C team or, you know, they're better players, you know, so to speak, are all on their C team that these guys didn't want to play C because they couldn't win.
00:20:18
Sully Shaheed
What was the point? What was the point?
00:20:40
Chilly
because they couldn't beat the stack team. um You know, again, I don't know how Chicago does their teams. They say they kind of just let their own players make their own teams. and That's their choice. You know, they don't have like a committee or whatever, you know, making teams. um I think had I really, really heard that point, I think my decision would have went the other way.
00:21:01
Chilly
um But my other point, like for me, I've been in their shoes where you get put into a division
00:21:01
Sully Shaheed
Mm-hmm.
00:21:10
Chilly
that you don't want to play in ours was a little different. Cause we had to get, we had to get moved from C to B, um you know, and we were legit C players versus them going down a division. So I get it. Now there are some precautions on them.
00:21:27
Chilly
Um, if they start to do too well, they will just get moved up into the C tournament. So again, you know, there is that dynamic.
00:21:32
Sully Shaheed
Mm-hmm.
00:21:34
Chilly
um And again, there's no guarantee that they're going to come out and and kill everybody. So, you know, again, we're all the speaking on what if. um But I guess for me, like, I think the mentality to say that you're not going unless if you play down, i think that's just, I think that's a little weak at the end of the day.
00:21:53
Chilly
um You know, you should strive to want to beat these guys, you know, beat your own center C teams. Like, you should you should want to strive to beat that. So, like, I think just saying you're not going, again, so I don't count that as, like, if we would have told you no, I wouldn't have felt bad about you not going.
00:22:10
Chilly
Because, like, at the end of the day, you should you know you should want to try and get better and play in a harder division.
00:22:10
Sully Shaheed
Sure.
00:22:17
Chilly
ah But, again, there's no guarantee that these guys – You know, Wendy, and again, they were voted legally. So, again, no no arguments there, and there's those precautions. But I think just for those guys going forward, just kind of alter your mentality a little bit.
00:22:33
Chilly
Because, again, man, you should want to beat them. Again, you're only get you would only had to play C, and you would have been legal C players. It would have been like us where we were got forced to go up a division.
00:22:45
Sully Shaheed
Right.
00:22:46
Chilly
so And we had the option to drop back down, and we literally told Tom, no.
00:22:51
Sully Shaheed
No.
00:22:52
Chilly
We'll take our ass whooping because you forced us to play here, and we'll move on our way. So, it was and we did.
00:22:57
Sully Shaheed
And we did it. mean, we did. We got cranked. And I mean, and and and that was one of the years, that was the years that like our B division was like nothing.
00:23:01
Chilly
We got.
00:23:06
Sully Shaheed
So our seeding games were half right? And then half C.
00:23:10
Chilly
Yeah, right. We're out there.
00:23:11
Sully Shaheed
And then every C team we went against, we beat their ass.
00:23:13
Chilly
2014, we're out there playing Mike Wall.
00:23:16
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, every C team we went against, we beat their ass.
00:23:16
Chilly
Correct.
00:23:18
Sully Shaheed
And every A team we went against, we got our asses kicked. So it's like, what do we want to do?
00:23:22
Chilly
And B team. Every B team destroyed us.
00:23:25
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, every every single one. And you know what? Like you said, it's a mentality thing. It's like, yeah, the experience kind of sucked for what it was. But at the same time, it made us better.
00:23:36
Sully Shaheed
So I'm okay with that.
00:23:37
Chilly
It did.
00:23:39
Sully Shaheed
I'm totally fine with that. So yeah, i get it. You know, like your mentality should be a, I mean, first of all, the trip is, you know, it's about the community. You want to meet more people. You want to hang out with people. You want to explore the cities that you get to visit.
00:23:52
Sully Shaheed
It's a vacation. For most of us, it's our vacation, you know? So minus that, like if you're trying to get more experience in Worley Ball, you have to play up.
00:24:03
Sully Shaheed
I mean, like, and I'm not saying that they're going to go out and kill, you know, the D division. I'm not saying that. That's not, that that may or may not happen. But at the same time, yes, they are it there is this pre, the precaution of them saying,
00:24:18
Sully Shaheed
If you are beating every D team's ass, you will get moved up. But if I heard that.
00:24:27
Sully Shaheed
I'm sandbagging.
00:24:30
Sully Shaheed
I will make every game close to the point where it's not noticeable.
00:24:31
Chilly
i mean
00:24:33
Chilly
I mean, they could.
00:24:36
Sully Shaheed
I might even lose a couple of games.
00:24:36
Chilly
i mean, they could.
00:24:39
Chilly
I mean, they could. i mean, i wouldn't be I wouldn't be the person to call anybody out on that.
00:24:45
Sully Shaheed
Right. And and that's that's a judgment thing at that point as well. You know, like, are they trying? Are they trying to keep this game close? But again, it's it's different division, right?
00:24:54
Chilly
Um...
00:24:55
Sully Shaheed
So...
00:24:55
Chilly
Well... But, I mean, I will also state, and Noah did bring this up on their podcast as well, um there is the ultimate gym defender. um That's name is Tom.
00:25:10
Chilly
And if Tom don't like it, um you don't have a choice.
00:25:10
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. Yeah.
00:25:17
Chilly
No matter what the committee says, we are in that man's house. We abide by his rules.
00:25:24
Chilly
Whether you like it or not,
00:25:25
Sully Shaheed
That's ah the old level 51 Blissey, the gym defender.
00:25:30
Chilly
The ultimate gym defender. So, I mean,
00:25:31
Sully Shaheed
As soon as you see her in there, you're like, you know what?
00:25:35
Chilly
i mean, we've all been.
00:25:35
Sully Shaheed
Sorry, that's a Pokemon reference for all you guys that don't know Pokemon. Yeah, we're going to talk about Pokemon Go 2. Remember, if you're playing that Pokemon, we're going to be in these streets, okay?
00:25:47
Sully Shaheed
Dalton, remember, we got a lucky trade to make.
00:25:47
Chilly
Yeah.
00:25:51
Sully Shaheed
So be mindful that you and I have to link up.
00:25:51
Chilly
Same.
00:25:54
Sully Shaheed
And you, Chili, right?
00:25:56
Chilly
Yes, I'm lucky friends with Dalton as well.
00:25:57
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, see, me and Chili are lucky friends with Dalton. We got to link up on these Pokemon Go streets. Okay? So sidebar. Just a sidebar. Sorry. Sorry.
00:26:05
Chilly
Yeah, just a sidebar. I mean, I remember at the last Nationals, I had a 45-minute one-on-one conversation with Tom about Wings playing in D.
Adaptability in Tournament Play
00:26:19
Sully Shaheed
Mm-hmm.
00:26:20
Chilly
Like, Tom legit stopped the court during their tournament game and told Wings to get the fuck off the court. He said, what is that C player doing on the court and everything? Like, Tom legit came out there and said, stop the game.
00:26:34
Chilly
So...
00:26:34
Sully Shaheed
yeah
00:26:35
Chilly
you know I had to talk. like I talked to Tom. I'm sure a lot of other people talked to Tom. But literally for just a great 45-minute conversation with him that you know Wings was okay and you know what Michigan's situation was and because Tom didn't believe him.
00:26:51
Sully Shaheed
yeah
00:26:53
Chilly
you know so ah yeah So, you know again, at the end of the day, you know no matter what the committee says, Tom has the last word, whether you like it or not.
00:27:06
Chilly
So, kind of is what it is.
00:27:08
Sully Shaheed
That's...
00:27:08
Chilly
But, but again, they are a – for as much grief as I'm giving them, they were voted. They are a legal D team, and I wish them well.
00:27:18
Sully Shaheed
Having said that, who is winning the D Division?
00:27:24
Chilly
ah Man, I'll make a pick here. Let's just – I'm just taking – he's got the – I'm just taking the Gil. I'm taking Owen. i'm taking the I'm taking our Misfit team.
00:27:36
Sully Shaheed
Okay. Okay.
00:27:38
Chilly
Let's take them, man.
00:27:38
Sully Shaheed
I like that.
00:27:40
Sully Shaheed
I like that. You know what?
00:27:40
Chilly
Fuck it.
00:27:41
Chilly
Let's take them.
00:27:41
Sully Shaheed
you You know what? Chill. You know what? Chill. I'm going to back you on that. I'm taking the misfits as well. I'm taking the misfits.
00:27:48
Chilly
Let's fuck. Yeah.
00:27:50
Sully Shaheed
Give the misfits. what Why not? If there is Gil DNA in a tournament, you never can count them out. So...
00:27:58
Chilly
Yeah. i'm just ah I'm just making a bold statement. i think I think James and I should be co-coaches on that team.
00:28:08
Sully Shaheed
Not freaking Sean's father.
00:28:11
Chilly
No. No, God, no.
00:28:13
Sully Shaheed
Not
00:28:15
Chilly
God, no. Keep Rick far away.
00:28:17
Sully Shaheed
Ty's father.
00:28:20
Chilly
keep keep eric Eric don't want to go out there.
00:28:23
Sully Shaheed
You're right, though. You're right. You're right. he he's not He's not ready for that.
00:28:26
Chilly
Essentially, ja
00:28:27
Sully Shaheed
He's not ready for coaching. No, no, no.
00:28:30
Chilly
I picture James and I coaching, meaning James is going to go out there and do 99.9% of the talking. I'm going to 0.1% in there, which is probably like calming everybody down after James kills them and just tell them you guys are doing great.
00:28:46
Chilly
Give them a fist pump. ah what
00:28:51
Sully Shaheed
I like that. I like that coaching style.
00:28:53
Chilly
Yeah, I think.
00:28:54
Sully Shaheed
You'd be like, ah what was what was was Jason Garrett, right? The clapper.
00:29:01
Sully Shaheed
Guys are great.
00:29:01
Chilly
I mean. I mean, i think I think James and I can be like Belichick and McDaniels, you know? We can we can go on a run.
00:29:09
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. Yeah.
00:29:11
Chilly
We got it. We got it.
00:29:11
Sully Shaheed
I respect that.
00:29:11
Chilly
We got it.
00:29:13
Sully Shaheed
Okay, okay. I'm with it. I'm with it. All right, so we're both in lockstep with the D division. Let's move on to the C division. 10 teams deep, right?
00:29:24
Chilly
ah Yeah, the C Division this year, we are looking at... ah So, actually, we're looking at eight. ah We are looking at
00:29:31
Sully Shaheed
Oh, eight. I apologize. Eight.
00:29:33
Chilly
Actually, no, nine. We are looking at nine. We're looking at two Seattle, two Chicago, one Texas, two Cleveland, Minnesota, and Michigan. so we're looking at nine.
00:29:44
Sully Shaheed
Okay, okay. So what are your thoughts on the division as a whole?
00:29:49
Chilly
I think this division is the most open division. um i know you may have something to say about a certain a certain thing here. i know we yeah I know you may be going on a rant here soon, but
00:30:02
Sully Shaheed
Do i
00:30:04
Chilly
I and think you do.
00:30:04
Sully Shaheed
Do I have something to say? All right.
00:30:06
Chilly
um I think, um I mean, i think this is by far the most competitive division, probably.
00:30:07
Sully Shaheed
ah
00:30:16
Chilly
um In terms of, like, I literally think it doesn't matter where these teams seed. ah It's just going to come to, I think seed literally comes down to tournament day and who's made the biggest adjustments throughout the the weekend.
00:30:33
Chilly
So I'm kind of interested to see it. um But man, I think C's pretty, pretty
C Division Analysis and Predictions
00:30:39
Chilly
wide open here. And before I give out some predictions here, you know, I think you may have a, you know, if you have a rant, you may want to go on.
00:30:48
Chilly
um I'm gonna let you do that.
00:30:52
Sully Shaheed
Listen, i I have calmed down since I've listened to the podcast at work. Okay. So instead of like a five minute rant, I'll go on like a two minute rant. All right. And it's not even going to be a rant. It's going to be a matter of opinion and a matter of fact. Right.
00:31:06
Sully Shaheed
So with, with our teams in, in the C division, There is, and like you said, it's probably wide open, to be honest, but there ain't one mother effing team that is running the table.
00:31:19
Sully Shaheed
Not one, not from any center, especially Chicago, okay? You're in two-welds-and-up mentality, ain't gonna work, all right, against a certain set of teams, all right?
00:31:32
Sully Shaheed
Cleveland, too, Jim's 6'7 ass is not going to allow you to shoot through him, okay? So you're going to to be driving around him. And then me, ah and I took it personally, and that's all I needed.
00:31:45
Sully Shaheed
So I am not moving from the hole the entire freaking game, okay? I ain't shooting. I'm barely passing.
00:31:55
Sully Shaheed
The only time getting passes with rebounds. But I'm sitting my big ass right in the middle of that damn court, and I dare – Any one y'all five foot five motherfuckers to try to shoot over me. Okay. For an entire half, entire seating, entire tournament. right.
00:32:09
Sully Shaheed
Run the table. Run these balls. That shit ain't going to happen. right. I got 80 years of experience on my damn team. Okay.
00:32:19
Chilly
Yeah.
00:32:20
Sully Shaheed
When you combine Ricky and Billy together.
00:32:21
Chilly
yeah
00:32:23
Sully Shaheed
All right. I will let Billy play Billy ball and let him shoot us in or shoot us out of any freaking game. Okay. So this is all I'm needed.
00:32:36
Sully Shaheed
Okay. Because I don't think any team in any division is capable of running the table. All right. You guys did it in B. You had your home center. You had the experience. You had everything going for you.
00:32:49
Sully Shaheed
And I commend you on that. You guys had a great tournament and you rightfully earned your way to be in A. And it's the last time minus some random D divisions that we've seen that shit happen.
00:33:00
Sully Shaheed
And you think it's going to happen in C, the most random ass division in all of Whirly Ball? Okay. It's not to happen. And I'm not saying that my team is going to be the one to put you on blast or
00:33:08
Chilly
I'm
00:33:11
Sully Shaheed
I'm not saying our other C team's going to put you on blast. I'm not saying that Michigan's going to put you on blast, but somebody is going to come out and beat the brakes off y'all motherfuckers and humble you real quick about some running the table.
00:33:25
Sully Shaheed
That shit ain't going to happen.
00:33:26
Chilly
um
00:33:27
Sully Shaheed
I will, I will guarantee that will not happen. I'm going to be eight feet out of that car to make sure that you do not shoot over me. Period. So best of luck.
00:33:40
Sully Shaheed
However, He ain't running in the motherfucking table. Okay?
00:33:44
Chilly
I mean, and
00:33:44
Sully Shaheed
I don't give a damn.
00:33:47
Chilly
i mean in that team's defense, it was their coach who said they're going undefeated.
00:33:53
Sully Shaheed
They coached Sauce, too.
00:33:53
Chilly
It wasn't the actual...
00:33:55
Sully Shaheed
They coached Sauce, too. I don't give a damn. All right? Sauce. Good person.
00:34:02
Chilly
Hey, man.
00:34:03
Sully Shaheed
Terrible at predictions.
00:34:06
Chilly
Hey, man. I mean, he did he literally put the pressure on him. He says if they lose a game, he's essentially like cutting them off.
00:34:13
Sully Shaheed
failed, like a mission abort, mission failed, right?
00:34:17
Chilly
Yeah, yeah, literally just cutting ties.
00:34:20
Sully Shaheed
And listen, Cleveland historically, minus your B team, has done piss poor in seeding every freaking time. And come tournament day, we turn the switch on every time.
00:34:31
Sully Shaheed
So I think it might be the same scenario, especially with our C2 guys, because like they're still figuring out a lot, you know, what they want to do rotationally, what they want to do for defense, cherry picking, et cetera, et cetera.
00:34:43
Sully Shaheed
And I mean, and to a certain point, like our team has ah similar issue, but all of us can play any role that we want. Like, if you want to put me in the hole, you can put me in the hole. You want to put Eric in the hole, you can put Eric in the hole. If you want to put, um you know, Mooney in the hole, you could put Mooney in the hole.
00:35:01
Sully Shaheed
I mean, and both with cherry picking as well, everybody can operate his wings. I think that we are very diverse in the skillset, which makes us a threat. But with the C2 team, they need to help each other.
00:35:15
Sully Shaheed
Like, they're commute they don't have leaders on their team. One guy has to be a vocal leader and a court general, and I don't think they have that. Like, with our team, you can have Billy. You can have me. You can have Mooney.
00:35:29
Sully Shaheed
You're fine. That team, if Josh doesn't step up, because Josh is probably the best all-around player that they have on that team, But he still needs to work on the vocal part of that, right?
00:35:42
Sully Shaheed
So if he can be a court general, I think they have more than a fighting chance to to make a run in that division. Oh,
00:35:51
Chilly
Hey, man, we'll we'll see. I think I'm pretty sure um'm I'll be coaching them boys up all weekend. So wellla we'll be ready. I'll get the boys ready, man.
00:36:02
Sully Shaheed
yo, you coached it. What the fuck you do with us, huh?
00:36:07
Sully Shaheed
Exactly. don't need your... I don't need your goddamn coaching. need your motherfucking opinion about a motherfucking thing.
00:36:07
Chilly
You got – – you got –
00:36:15
Chilly
you you got you you got you got and
00:36:19
Sully Shaheed
I got Ant.
00:36:21
Chilly
You got ant? You got ant?
00:36:24
Sully Shaheed
Ant is the homie. Ant is the homie. So Josh asked me to have us predict a back a bracket buster in that division, a team that's going to be slept on.
00:36:27
Chilly
You got ant?
00:36:37
Sully Shaheed
that could make a ah serious run.
00:36:37
Chilly
Mm-hmm.
00:36:39
Chilly
So, well, let's do this.
00:36:39
Sully Shaheed
So who's going to bust some brackets?
00:36:40
Chilly
So let's, so what well that's so before we go with the, before we go with the old sleeper, you know, but let's, ah let's just, let's make a prediction on the final.
00:36:51
Chilly
And then let's, you know, we then we could do then we could do that.
00:36:51
Sully Shaheed
Okay.
00:36:54
Chilly
So what is your C final?
00:36:58
Sully Shaheed
My C team in Chicago, and I'm busting their ass.
00:37:02
Chilly
All right. Nice. I too, um you know, again, here taking a look, um Again, man, it's it's so hard.
00:37:14
Chilly
It's so hard because, like, it is wide open, man, because I don't want to sleep on any.
00:37:14
Sully Shaheed
It's wide open.
00:37:17
Sully Shaheed
It's wide open.
00:37:19
Chilly
I hate not putting a Seattle team, especially in their own center, and not in the final. It seems a little foreign. um
00:37:27
Sully Shaheed
That's reserved for B&A, okay?
00:37:27
Chilly
I mean, the show...
00:37:29
Sully Shaheed
We're going to talk about Chicago. I'm sorry, Seattle a little bit. That's reserved for B&A. ah you you can You can go off the beaten path if you want and see.
00:37:36
Chilly
Yeah. so so um'm ah So, again, man, so like the Seattle team – not the Seattle team. The Chicago team, ah it is good, man. There's a lot of good players on that team. um Again, i they're they're not going be a pushover.
00:37:51
Chilly
so I'm going to go with a a Chicago versus a – I think one of the Cleveland teams will make the final. So to take the cop-out answer. I'm going to do a Chicago-Cleveland final.
00:38:05
Chilly
um So that's why I'm gonna do it.
00:38:06
Sully Shaheed
You're not copping out. You're not copping out at all.
00:38:09
Chilly
So, because – yeah, because, you know, ah ah the other boy is ready to go.
00:38:10
Sully Shaheed
It's
00:38:15
Chilly
Coach is coming out. Hey, whoop, whoop. take
00:38:18
Sully Shaheed
go against my team is stop Billy. That's it. That's all you're going to fucking say. And you can't. So suck it.
00:38:29
Chilly
it okay
00:38:30
Sully Shaheed
okay This ain't you chasing him around.
00:38:32
Chilly
and who whoa
00:38:33
Sully Shaheed
This ain't Anthony chasing him around. All right.
00:38:36
Chilly
um I'll just, you know you know what I'll do? I'll just piss him off. I'll call a timeout and just go over there and piss him off.
00:38:46
Chilly
yeah
00:38:46
Sully Shaheed
No, that is your father, so you know how to get under his skin.
00:38:49
Sully Shaheed
Brother!
00:38:49
Chilly
i just I'll just put my arm around and be like, hey, you know you're the fourth best Ola, and I'll just walk away.
00:38:55
Sully Shaheed
Brother! Brother! Not the fourth best Ola.
00:39:01
Chilly
Dude, it could make him play better. her
00:39:06

Sully Shaheed
Because you already know how Billy is, man. you'll He'll turn into fucking Superman and take every fucking shot. But again, he is straight up Russell Westbrook. He will shoot your ass in a game or shoot your ass right out of the game.

00:43:23
Sully Shaheed
But.
00:43:25
Sully Shaheed
Let's talk about B. Who we got lined up in B, man.
00:43:29
Chilly
man. So in b ah B this year, we're looking at a seven-team division. We're looking at Seattle with four. ah We're looking at a a Miami team.
00:43:41
Chilly
Welcome back. Texas
00:43:43
Sully Shaheed
I'm excited for that. Yes. Yes. Welcome back, Miami. Fuck yeah, dude.
B Division Team Highlights
00:43:49
Sully Shaheed
I'm pumped.
00:43:49
Chilly
and...
00:43:50
Chilly
And in Chicago. so again, here, man, a lot of Seattle teams. i Just a lot of lot shit going on, man. So...
00:44:01
Sully Shaheed
Hey, man, can you can you rattle off the roster for Miami and the Chicago B team?
00:44:09
Chilly
Yeah, so the Miami team, you're looking at you're looking at Frank, Eddie, ah Nan, ah Mr. Ben Hanna, and mar Marcus had to drop.
00:44:19
Sully Shaheed
Oh.
00:44:21
Chilly
And as of today, it is Carl from Atlanta.
00:44:27
Sully Shaheed
That's a good team, man. ah that's a good team. How's that how's that Chicago team looking?
00:44:31
Chilly
Well, i mean, ah I think the Chicago team, man, the Chicago team could be... They could win it, but I'm also going to politely say they're the most volatile team, I think, in B.
00:44:46
Sully Shaheed
Okay.
00:44:47
Chilly
You're looking at ah Michael Langenfield, Andy, Walter, Dan Serlin from Michigan, and Cliff Thompson.
00:44:55
Sully Shaheed
Okay. Okay. Another solid team.
00:44:56
Chilly
i
00:44:57
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, okay
00:44:58
Chilly
it's is it's It's solid, but, man, I think it's – is there enough balls on the court for Andy and and Walter?
00:45:05
Sully Shaheed
okay. That's a...
00:45:08
Chilly
you know what they You know what they almost kind of reminded me of? Of like when Anthony and Billy would play together and they would just argue over like who was shooting and if that was a good shot or not.
00:45:17
Sully Shaheed
Oh, yeah. Every miss. What the fuck are you shooting that for?
00:45:22
Chilly
Literally every time. Again, great team. Yeah. Again, lot of, again, experience there. ah Michael Langenfield, obviously a very underrated player.
00:45:33
Chilly
He's got a good shot, too. But, you know, with again, with Andy and Walter, hopefully he can find time to shoot the ball.
00:45:37
Sully Shaheed
Thank you.
00:45:42
Chilly
So we'll see how it goes. you know ah You know, with those two earning their right back up in the B, you know, I think think i think they are and think they they have a chip on their shoulder, the old proverbial chip.
00:45:55
Chilly
So, yeah. You know, that'll be an interesting team, man. And then we'll get to um ah the Texas team at the moment.
00:46:06
Chilly
It kind of just depends on ah who kind of got called up to A versus who didn't get called up to A. um So they have Justin ah from Michigan, Roy from Michigan.
00:46:14
Sully Shaheed
Mm-hmm.
00:46:19
Chilly
um i believe KB is going to play B. Uh, so I believe he will be on their team as well. Uh, and then you could be looking at somebody like probably like Gary, you know, Mr. Gary.
00:46:33
Chilly
Uh, and then I believe they would probably need a fifth.
00:46:34
Sully Shaheed
yeah
00:46:39
Chilly
Uh, again, that team has a lot of experience. That's a, that's a lot of B experience on that team.
00:46:45
Sully Shaheed
Mm-hmm.
00:46:45
Chilly
Uh, do they have enough, uh, do they have enough firepower? I don't know. um you know, Roy's got a good shot. But, again, man, Roy's kind of like Billy.
00:46:58
Chilly
He's going to shoot you in. He's going to shoot you out. And, again, man, it's it's tough to do in B. And then, you know, Seattle what their with the mega powers here.
00:47:10
Chilly
They got 27 B teams. Hold on. Let's go find them.
00:47:16
Chilly
Like, yeah, man.
00:47:16
Sully Shaheed
Minimum 27. Oh,
00:47:19
Chilly
Like, God damn. Why do you all have so many B teams? All right. and
00:47:24
Sully Shaheed
you know how home center goes, man. They're going to load up. They're going to load up.
00:47:28
Chilly
Right, so they're one team here. ah You're looking at Brandon White, Mark Mills, Phil Kennedy, Rhett, and I believe Derek Carroll dropped and that turned into Mr. Nikon, think.
00:47:43
Chilly
B2 is Adam Miller, Brandon Stewart, Steve Vogt, Jeff Jackson, Sean Atchison.
00:47:43
Sully Shaheed
Okay.
00:47:51
Chilly
B3 is Mr. DeWitt, Kiefer, Dustin Vaughn, Gage, and Stan. stand i just kicked all right uh you got devin brown that's a rule uh b b4 you got devin brown rob vaughn brandy jones nathan doll and chris banlow so again man a lot of b teams here i do think again you know with them playing at home obviously everybody's everybody's skill especially for the seattle players gonna go up a little bit so i think there's a uh
00:48:02
Sully Shaheed
yeah kick stack. I love it.
00:48:29
Chilly
Man, there's just a lot going on. They just they have a lot have a lot of good teams here, but I do have a favorite out of the four, so I think you know think i think it'll be interesting.
00:48:39
Sully Shaheed
Yeah.
00:48:43
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. Oh yeah. I mean, you know, home court advantage always is, you know, plus a couple of stats, no matter where you go, no matter who you are, you got home court advantage. You're going to do, you know, exceptionally well.
00:48:57
Sully Shaheed
um You know, you're, you're more prone to defend home court as well. um You know, you know, your teams back and forth because you get to practice against them. um I mean, it's,
00:49:08
Sully Shaheed
i My initial thought is putting a Seattle team in the final is just which Seattle team I would lean towards. um I'm very intrigued to hear your opinion about which Seattle team I think is going to face Miami in the final because I'm taking Miami to get to the final.
00:49:28
Chilly
you
00:49:29
Sully Shaheed
I'm taking the returning boys.
00:49:30
Chilly
you
00:49:31
Sully Shaheed
I'm taking Nan. I'm taking Eddie. I'm taking Frank. I'm taking all those boys with that experience. you know and ah they're They're a fun breed of Worley Ball as well. and I don't want you know and ah to say awkward breed of Worley Ball, but they are unique to defend.
00:49:51
Sully Shaheed
if that makes sense. So I think they they definitely have a...
00:49:54
Chilly
Well, I mean, i mean, you know, You know, Nan is never coming back to defense.
00:50:00
Sully Shaheed
Damn right!
00:50:01
Chilly
Em.
00:50:01
Sully Shaheed
I don't want him to change! I want Nan to be Nan!
00:50:04
Chilly
Em. Em.
00:50:05
Sully Shaheed
I want him to stay one side of the court, roll that motherfucking hand up that scoop, flick that wrist. That's all want Nan to do. So yes, I need that in my life.
00:50:17
Sully Shaheed
oh But yeah, I think that I think the team with ah Chief Keefer and the boys, I think that's going be my favorite to to win the whole darn thing.
00:50:28
Chilly
Yeah, so i um I'm going to roll with a Seattle-Seattle final. I think it'll be – going to take Kiefer. So Kiefer's team.
00:50:40
Chilly
you So Justin DeWitt, Kiefer, Dustin, Gage, and Stan. And i think they'll be – I just kicked Stan.
00:50:50
Sully Shaheed
Just kickstand.
00:50:52
Chilly
And then I will have them in the final against, you know, colleague of the show. ah Steve Vogt, Jeff Jackson, Sean Atchison, Brandon Stewart, and Adam Miller. So I do – so I believe that will be the the final.
00:51:06
Chilly
And then, again, Dark Horse team, I'm going to put the Chicago guys in there. Again, think – I think they're – again, so I think Chicago, again, man, a lot of potential on that Chicago team, man.
00:51:11
Sully Shaheed
right.
00:51:18
Chilly
lot of people that can put ball and bucket. ah But, again, man, it's ah it's a very volatile team. There's a lot of personality on that team. So – It'll be – there's one ball.
00:51:28
Sully Shaheed
There's one ball, chill. There's one ball.
00:51:32
Chilly
There's one ball, man.
00:51:32
Sully Shaheed
There's one ball.
00:51:34
Chilly
But there's a lot – again, on that team, man, there's a lot of people that can put ball in bucket. So, man, we'll see. Again, they – I know Sean from Chicago had mentioned, you know, they have – he'd even pick his Chicago team. But he mentioned, man, they got all the potential in the world to win B. So, again, man, that would be my – that's my dark horse to B.
00:51:57
Chilly
they are They are either making a deep run or they are two and out.
00:52:00
Sully Shaheed
Two and out. There ain't no in between. It's y'all getting to the finals or y'all going be watching the finals real early. You might as well start packing your shit.
00:52:10
Chilly
Yeah. Yeah, it'll be for that team.
00:52:11
Sully Shaheed
That's fair.
00:52:13
Chilly
i think for that team, whoever's coaching them is, I think, I think will be key as well. I'm kind of managing everybody and you know, when the lows are lows, kind of pulling everybody out of that hole and keeping everybody upbeat.
00:52:30
Sully Shaheed
that makes That makes a ton of sense. Absolutely. Okay. um It's time for A, where the Cleveland boys have one representative. Seattle has, what, eight A teams?
00:52:44
Sully Shaheed
Right? Something like that
00:52:44
Chilly
Yeah, ah they got 47.
00:52:46
Chilly
They're digging people out of the grave.
00:52:48
Sully Shaheed
that. Well, you already knew that was going to happen. You already knew that was going happen.
00:52:52
Chilly
No, they got... no
00:52:52
Sully Shaheed
But give give me a rundown.
00:52:53
Chilly
the
00:52:53
Sully Shaheed
Give me a rundown. Who are we looking at?
00:52:55
Chilly
No. Yeah. So they got three. um So we got three Seattle. So again, here for the Seattle teams, we are looking at, ah we are looking at Barrett, Eric, Brad Peters, Christie, and Mr. Weber.
00:53:11
Chilly
We are looking at this other, this Joe Tiffany guy, Carl, Ian, Jay, and Ben Bird. ah This other team,
00:53:19
Sully Shaheed
It's America's favorite player, bitch.
00:53:22
Chilly
And then this other team has a, has some guy who shares the last name of a D player. So it can't be all that great.
A Division Matchups and Commentator Roles
00:53:29
Chilly
ah James, Jordan, Raphael, Brandon, and Noah. I mean, don't forget that is actually Noah's team. It's not James's team.
00:53:38
Chilly
That is Noah's team. He is the captain.
00:53:40
Sully Shaheed
Correct.
00:53:41
Sully Shaheed
Correct. Correct.
00:53:41
Chilly
And we make, and everybody, everybody makes sure we make James aware that it's Noah's team.
00:53:47
Sully Shaheed

00:53:48
Chilly
Correct.
00:53:48
Sully Shaheed
Thousand percent. Noah Aaron's team.
00:53:50
Chilly
Yeah.
00:53:50
Sully Shaheed
Hundred percent.
00:53:51
Chilly
Yeah.
00:53:51
Sully Shaheed
Got it.
00:53:51
Chilly
And, if we play them If we play them in the playoffs and they call a timeout, I'll make sure i walk over there and let them know, like, hey, but whatever Noah's saying, do that. Okay.
00:54:01
Sully Shaheed
Whoa, whoa, wait. Oh, whoa, whoa. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Time out. Time to fuck out. Another rant that I have about fucking Noah Aaron his motherfucking self-proclaimed fucking voice of Whirly Ball.
00:54:14
Sully Shaheed
Hey, you kissed my ass, all right? There is a debate, a debate at least to be had between, you know, myself and anybody else that's on these podcasts the streets, okay?
00:54:26
Sully Shaheed
Not doubting that Noah Aaron has one of the sweetest voices in Whirly Ball. Like, his vocabulary is deep, okay?
00:54:32
Chilly
Yeah.
00:54:36
Sully Shaheed
But the fact, the fact that I don't get a fucking mention all the hours of commentary that I had, not had to do, chose to do, chose to do. I loved doing it. i hope I get an opportunity to do it again this year.
00:54:51
Sully Shaheed
but And especially the times I actually had to share the booth with Noah um was some of the some of my favorite moments at that last year's Nationals and the one in Cleveland as well.
00:55:02
Sully Shaheed
um That was a ton of fun. But just just to not be mentioned as one of the voices Whirly Ball is, it hits me here. It hits me right there.
00:55:13
Sully Shaheed
And in the vocal cords a little bit, chill. And in the vocal cords. So I love Noah. ah He does a fantastic job behind the mic. But damn, man, can I get can i get a little ah little street cred?
00:55:25
Sully Shaheed
A little street cred chill? Just a little bit.
00:55:27
Chilly
You just want a little streak, right?
00:55:27
Sully Shaheed
You know what I'm saying?
00:55:30
Chilly
i mean, you you're not...
00:55:30
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, man, I just want a little street cred.
00:55:31
Chilly
Everybody does mention you're in the ninth best goalie.
00:55:32
Sully Shaheed
You know?
00:55:40
Sully Shaheed
Can I be known for other things in these whirlyball streets? Chill. other Other than being black, other than hosting a podcast, and other than, you know, being the ninth best goalie in Whirly Ball.
00:55:45
Chilly
I think you...
00:55:53
Sully Shaheed
Okay? Can I get some respect in these podcasting streets, in these in these announcing streets?
00:55:56
Chilly
I mean, listen... I mean, listen, i you know, most, you know, a lot of great sports commentary teams were interracial. So you wouldn't know of.
00:56:07
Chilly
I think it makes sense.
00:56:09
Sully Shaheed
Name a better duo, right?
00:56:11
Chilly
But it ain't none of the rollyball streets.
00:56:12
Sully Shaheed
Name a better duo. Right? Right?
00:56:15
Chilly
Wow. Yeah.
00:56:16
Sully Shaheed
it and Listen, man, well we' we'll talk about it at the end, but I got i got some other ah that something else funny I need to talk about. But anyway, um I'm sorry. My side tangent is over.
00:56:26
Sully Shaheed
um Talk to me about the rest of this A Division and let me know who's going make some noise.
00:56:32
Chilly

00:56:40
Sully Shaheed

Sully Shaheed
ATL, baby. Another... Another clap. Another returning center. Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
00:56:50
Chilly
Yeah, so again, Atlanta here, we're looking at Brad Patenia, Nightmares, Beckett, and Kyle Phillips. i ah So again, and Jacob, uh i didn't know if i've mentioned him before but again jacob is getting the call up so uh welcome to a sir um you know again welcome uh it's a it's a very fun division to be playing in it's very different uh and and you'll see that so welcome enjoy the experience um again the atlanta guys They'll play great. Even, um you know, obviously Beckett and Battenia try to get out as much as they can to play. And, you know, they – at the Michigan, you know, mini practice, they played well.
00:57:33
Chilly
um You know, I know Kyle – hey,
00:57:35
Sully Shaheed
Beckett is so goddamn good.
00:57:39
Chilly
man, he played well.
00:57:39
Sully Shaheed
Jesus, that man is good. Mm-hmm.
00:57:40
Chilly
Hey, he played well. He played well with us when we played in that unlimited game. So, ah you know, so again –
00:57:45
Sully Shaheed
Mm-hmm.
00:57:48
Chilly
We got that. um Obviously, we got the new team in town. We got the the Chicago guys who are should not be taken likely. Again, we got Bill.
00:57:57
Sully Shaheed
Mm-hmm.
00:57:57
Chilly
We got Dead, George, Matty Ice, and and Sean. So welcome to a Again, i know being the new A team on the block, it was a very fun and cool experience.
00:58:09
Chilly
You're going to learn some things that you could get away with in B that you sure as hell can't get away with in A.
00:58:16
Sully Shaheed
Like shooting two welds and up?
00:58:16
Chilly
So again,
00:58:19
Sully Shaheed
Something like that? Maybe have to shoot three weld screenshots in order to fucking win? Huh? Good luck shooting over Jared and Patrick, motherfuckers.
00:58:27
Chilly
Hey,
00:58:27
Sully Shaheed
Good luck! Good luck!
00:58:30
Chilly
he said it. I didn't. I'm just here. i didn't.
00:58:34
Sully Shaheed
Sorry.
00:58:34
Chilly
Nope.
00:58:34
Sully Shaheed
so I didn't mean to put your team in particular on blast, but the same time, I know how much of a pain in the ass it is to shoot over Jarrett and you and fucking Anthony and Brad.
00:58:37
Chilly
but
00:58:46
Sully Shaheed
That shit sucks. Okay? I can only imagine. I can't get to two welds, let alone shoot three and a half. I saw Jay block Billy from half court.
00:58:58
Sully Shaheed
Half court, Jay. He was in the key. And he blocked Billy from damn near half court.
00:59:07
Chilly
That was, uh, I watched that. I was like, Oh, that's cool.
00:59:10
Sully Shaheed
It was unreal. Unreal.
00:59:15
Chilly
That was, uh, that was, uh, it was something cool, but I mean, uh, I think Chicago is going to play well.
00:59:15
Sully Shaheed
Anyway, I digress.
00:59:23
Chilly
Um, i think they're I think they're going to play well. We're not taking them lightly in the slightest, so ah they't get they'll get our best shot.
00:59:29
Sully Shaheed
No, no, course
00:59:31
Chilly
So, again, um again man, those guys put in the work. They're going to play well. ah Just cherish the experience. um If you get blown out, who cares? You know, fucking it happens.
00:59:44
Chilly
um So, again, man, a' is a good time, welcome. Welcome. uh we got the texas team which you know unfortunately for texas uh not bringing the best team that they can bring uh still bringing some hitters though uh again you know we got mr we got doc we got uh we got mario snowy and then what i would assume is probably going to be greg and probably zach montgomery is probably my guess uh again man all those guys are fully capable um
01:00:09
Sully Shaheed
yeah Yeah. Mm-hmm.
01:00:16
Chilly
Again, all experience. it's It'll be Greg's like second year in A. So, again, he looked a little timid last year, but I don't know how much of that who excuse me was playing with Flores.
01:00:28
Chilly
So, again, here... ah Texas, you know, not bringing the best five that they can, but man, again, still a tough team not to be meant to take be taken lightly.
01:00:38
Chilly
And then again here, yeah again, Michigan, ah we're looking at, you know, one team is Sam, Timmy, Clint, ah Driscoll, and David Bernard.
01:00:50
Chilly
ah The other team, we're looking at Doug, Austin, Kalen, Johner, and Ben. um Again, two really solid teams. um I think a little bit kind of two different teams, truthfully, um in the dynamics. So, um you know, played against both teams, you know, when we had that practice. So um it'll be interesting, man, um you know, to see to see what they're going to do.
01:01:18
Chilly
Obviously, know, a lot of the team's biggest hurdle is, you know, is going to be those cars. You know, how can Michigan adjust to the cars and in Atlanta and, you know, Chicago and all of these guys adjusting to the cars again, um you know, for us, it won't again, Seattle obviously will have the biggest driving advantage no matter what, um you know, for us, it won't be that big of a change up, obviously different, but, but again, for us, man, having Patrick,
01:01:50
Chilly
Kind of it can kind of hide some things and make things go faster. um and he can give us a little, you know, insider information on what to do and not to do in those cars. So um it'll be fun. it It'll be fun for sure. But man, again, man, A's A's packed with talent like it always is. So it'll be fun.
01:02:10
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, ah you know, to to my previous point, and like like I mentioned, you know, i I love everybody, you know, in this community as people. And it's never or rarely any disrespect meant to, you know, any other teams that I talk about because I try and talk shit about every damn team that I have an opportunity to do so.
01:02:30
Sully Shaheed
So, um you know, i wish nothing but the best for those Chicago guys and the Texas guys who, like you said, are not bringing, you know, quote unquote, their best guys. But, you know, I think everybody has the capability of playing extremely well.
01:02:43
Sully Shaheed
And, you know, come tournament day, those lights cut on and it's a completely different beast. It's completely different animal come tournament day. You know, the longer games, the intensity kicks up, you know, every shot matters, every block matters, every loose ball matters.
01:02:55
Sully Shaheed
um I think that, you you know, what seems like a disadvantage on paper could not necessarily translate to tournament day. So, you know, who's to say Chicago can't make a run? Who's say Texas can't make a run?
01:03:08
Sully Shaheed
Who's to say any team that's in any division, for that matter, can't make a run? So, um you know, I think that, like, to your point, it's some things you could have got away with in different divisions that you probably can't get away with in other divisions. And I think that they have, ah you know, Chicago specifically has practiced that.
01:03:28
Sully Shaheed
I mean, you know, whatever their game is that was conducive in winning, you know, the last division might not translate. And they probably know that. So improving their game throughout the year will probably show on the court when we get out there, you know, come Nationals time. So and with Texas, it's a shame because 90 percent of my favorite players in Texas aren't coming.
01:03:52
Sully Shaheed
i mean, you know, Brad and Bolte and, you know, it's Those Flores. Like, I don't what to do without my Texas boys. You know what Like, those my people.
01:04:03
Sully Shaheed
You know, but i you know I wish them all the best with their families.
01:04:05
Chilly
we're gonna
01:04:06
Sully Shaheed
and
01:04:07
Chilly
i mean I mean, the most important Texas guy is coming.
01:04:12
Sully Shaheed
The most important Texas guy is...
01:04:17
Chilly
Come on. Do I even got to say something? Do I even got to say his name?
01:04:22
Sully Shaheed
Come on, man. Say his name and he appears. Come on.
01:04:25
Chilly
It would be hilarious. He just popped up.
01:04:29
Sully Shaheed
Right.
01:04:30
Chilly
I mean, come on.
01:04:30
Sully Shaheed
What y'all say?
01:04:31
Chilly
what
01:04:31
Sully Shaheed
Orly ball?
01:04:32
Chilly
wait wait What John Buckets?
01:04:35
Sully Shaheed
I get it. I get it. Is John Buckets playing A? They
01:04:40
Chilly
they should They should move him up. I'll make the pitch now.
01:04:41
Sully Shaheed
should move him up. They should move him up. Yep, I agree.
01:04:43
Chilly
Move him up.
01:04:45
Sully Shaheed
I think he's earned it.
01:04:45
Chilly
Move him up.
01:04:46
Sully Shaheed
i think he's earned it.
01:04:47
Chilly
Yeah. I mean, the name alone, name alone steve screams A player.
01:04:50
Sully Shaheed
Right. is That screams A. It screams A, doesn't it?
01:04:54
Chilly
Yeah.
01:04:55
Sully Shaheed
It screams A.
01:04:55
Chilly
Yeah. Yeah.
01:04:57
Sully Shaheed
But having said that, predictions, Chili. Who we got? who who Who's the bracket buster? Who's making the finals? Who's taking all?
01:05:08
Sully Shaheed
all
01:05:09
Chilly
All right. I will just – so I got two predictions. I'll just go with the Homer pick in me. It I think it will be our team against Joe Tiffany's team in the final.
01:05:26
Sully Shaheed
ah Okay.
01:05:29
Chilly
good
01:05:30
Sully Shaheed
right. Talk to me. Talk to me.
01:05:32
Chilly
So, again, you know, do i do like our team. um i mean, we've played well. Again, man, Patrick, I think Patrick's going to give us a lot more than what people think.
01:05:44
Chilly
um So, again, um I'm excited for that. If I'm taking us out of the equation, um I'm going to go with a team that nobody's and nobody's mentioned in the streets.
01:05:59
Sully Shaheed
Say it. Say it.
01:06:00
Chilly
aye i I kind of like the second Michigan team with Johnner.
01:06:00
Sully Shaheed
Say it.
01:06:04
Sully Shaheed
Yeah!
01:06:05
Chilly
Yeah.
01:06:06
Sully Shaheed
Yeah! That's it! Yep! Yep! Yep!
01:06:12
Sully Shaheed
yeah so get
01:06:12
Chilly
I'll still – so I would still have them against Joe Tiffany because until Joe Tiffany gets knocked out of an A-final, he'll just – he's like Patrick Mahomes.
01:06:24
Chilly
We'll just put him in the Super Bowl already. ah
01:06:27
Sully Shaheed
No, no, no, no, no. The real Patrick Mahomes, who has won a three straight years?
01:06:29
Chilly
Oh, no.
01:06:35
Chilly
Raphael.
01:06:36
Sully Shaheed
What team is Rafael on?
01:06:40
Chilly
Noah's.
01:06:42
Sully Shaheed
I'm taking Noah's team because Rafael's on it.
01:06:42
Chilly
Right?
01:06:44
Sully Shaheed
That motherfucker is always in the damn A finals and he's won three straight years. No matter where you put Rafael, they're going to the finals. So I'm taking Rafael's team.
01:06:55
Chilly
I mean, Raphael has to do it without Joe.
01:06:57
Sully Shaheed
I'm sorry, Noah's team. Noah. It's right. ain't worried about nothing. ain't worried about nothing. ain't worried about double shooter sleeve. ain't worried about that.
01:07:09
Sully Shaheed
Rafael's going to the finals, son. Deal with it, son. Son. Deal with it. And yes, I'm taking Johnner's Michigan team to go against that Seattle team.
01:07:22
Sully Shaheed
that's that's that's that's my
01:07:22
Chilly
yeah yeah i mean everybody ever i mean everybody is going to take you know the nicer looking dish what sam and timmy
01:07:23
Sully Shaheed
That's my bold prediction. That's my bold take.
01:07:34
Chilly
um what i want I want the boy. I want my 2010 brethren. give me Give me some Dougie. Give me some Johnner. Let's roll with it. Give me the Willisesses.
01:07:45
Sully Shaheed

01:07:46
Chilly
Give me the Willisesses.
01:07:47
Sully Shaheed
man, give my family. Give me my family. Give me my cousins.
01:07:50
Chilly

01:07:51
Sully Shaheed
Come on to the damn finals, baby. Come on.
01:07:53
Chilly
Yeah.
01:07:54
Sully Shaheed
Come on. I'm going to biased as on that damn commentary. Believe that. All right? If my family's in there, rooting for them, okay?
01:08:05
Sully Shaheed
And my sleeper pick, of course, is my homer pick. I got to take y'all boys. I think y'all can bust up a bracket real nice. um I'm not saying y'all are slept on because y'all are a known commodity in these streets.
01:08:18
Sully Shaheed
Y'all almost gave James Gill his first ever two and out last year
World of War Games Excitement
01:08:23
Sully Shaheed
in the run of the playoffs.
01:08:23
Chilly
We tried.
01:08:24
Sully Shaheed
So, I mean, hey, one of the greatest World of War games ever played, okay? Y'all was involved. So I'm taking y'all to bust brackets and at least, at least get to the third place. At least.
01:08:38
Sully Shaheed
Minimum. Minimum. And I'm not saying y'all got to.
01:08:40
Chilly
Yeah.
01:08:41
Sully Shaheed
yall No, no, fuck that. Y'all got to run the table. Y'all going run the table.
01:08:46
Chilly
Only one team.
01:08:46
Sully Shaheed
Y'all going to run table.
01:08:48
Chilly
There's only one team running the table.
01:08:50
Sully Shaheed
Run the fucking table.
01:08:51
Chilly
Chicago C.
01:08:52
Sully Shaheed
Fucking, fucking crazy. ah Let's talk about it briefly, chill.
01:08:55
Chilly
Hold on.
01:08:57
Sully Shaheed
Go ahead.
01:08:57
Chilly
If I got to pick a sleeper team, if
01:08:57
Sully Shaheed
Go ahead. Go ahead. Finish your thought. Finish your thought.
01:09:05
Chilly
I got to pick a sleeper team, I can't pick the Seattle teams because they'll still like they still be really good. You
01:09:13
Sully Shaheed
um Well, duh.
01:09:18
Chilly
you know what? Give me Atlanta. Give me Atlanta. think Atlanta. think atlanta
01:09:23
Sully Shaheed
Ah, that's such a good team, dude. That is such a good team.
01:09:26
Chilly
Give me Atlanta. If not us, man, go go Atlanta.
01:09:32
Sully Shaheed
Atlanta's a good team, man.
01:09:32
Chilly
You know, yeah I mean, you know, for Atlanta, obviously all the talent, ah getting Jacob up to speed will be key.
01:09:34
Sully Shaheed
that's like That's a good team.
01:09:44
Chilly
But, man, like he's a good team player. So, yeah, give me Atlanta.
01:09:47
Sully Shaheed
God, that's a good team.
01:09:48
Chilly
Give me Atlanta.
01:09:48
Sully Shaheed
That's a good freaking team. Holy shit. Let's talk about it briefly. Unlimited.
01:09:58
Chilly
Seattle in two?
01:10:02
Sully Shaheed
ah ah yeah Yeah.
01:10:06
Chilly
I mean, i mean, no.
01:10:06
Sully Shaheed
And it's no disrespect to Michigan. It really isn't. I know that, you know, we've been clamoring for a format change for years. um And eventually I think that will happen. But as long as it's formatted to these two teams going at it, it's Seattle in two.
01:10:21
Chilly
i mean I mean, I would throw out the – I mean, like, obviously, um i mean, we did beat the Michigan team um on their own, on their home court, ah you know, last month.
01:10:34
Chilly
um I would love to run that team on Unlimited. i know some people – obviously, it's it would be a mixed team. I know some people wouldn't really be happy about it. um But, like, and I know, like, people are saying, like,
01:10:49
Chilly
We only have four Cleveland guys, so we couldn't play unlimited. But, I mean, at this point, i think the change will be good. So I don't know if us or the Atlanta guys or something, but I think we should get a third team in there.
01:11:03
Chilly
um That's just kind of my pitch here. you know
Reflections and Hypotheticals
01:11:07
Chilly
And we'll see. you know Again, schedule allowing and stuff like that. But, um you know, can Michigan come out and get hot with, you know, Sammy and Timmy and them?
01:11:18
Chilly
You know, they absolutely could.
01:11:19
Sully Shaheed
Oh, yeah, without question. Without question.
01:11:21
Chilly
but man But, man, you're you're you're trying to beat, you know, who Seattle voted their five best players on their home court.
01:11:22
Sully Shaheed
Yeah.
01:11:33
Chilly
Good luck, man. That would be a tall task for anybody.
01:11:37
Sully Shaheed
Oh, yeah. Yeah, without question. I mean, like, at some point, I would like to see, you know, like our proposed last year, like the Mortal Kombat style, you know, like your center's five best. And they should...
01:11:46
Chilly
I think that's coming.
01:11:48
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, and I mean, it should be optional. You know what I'm saying? So if like Minnesota's five best don't want to go against Seattle's five best, then they can bow out. You know, and that's just an example. not saying Minnesota is sauce, but at the same time,
01:12:03
Sully Shaheed
You know, do you want to get clapped up by these guys? I mean, it's extra court time. It's extra experience. Will you get clapped up? Absolutely. But it's an experience that you can't get anywhere else.
01:12:16
Sully Shaheed
That's the thing. So, like, our invites are great when we mix up teams. It's a rare opportunity to play with guys from other centers. Guys and girls, I should say, from other centers. it's ah It's an awesome time, you know, being able to intermingle with with other players. You know what I'm saying? Like, some of the funnest memories I have of Worley Ball are invites.
01:12:34
Sully Shaheed
You know, because and those practices in Michigan where I get to play with Austin and Kalen and all those guys like that's fun for me. And that's genuine experience. You don't get that from, you know, get not going out there and getting your shit pushed in.
01:12:43
Chilly
Right.
01:12:47
Sully Shaheed
You know what i mean? Like sometimes you just got to get your shit pushed in and that's it. But you learn from it. And it's a great humbling experience. So I think like, you know, not saying that like it has to be like, oh, unlimited, the best of the best of the best.
01:13:01
Sully Shaheed
But it's like if your center has five good players, which every center does, let him fucking go at it, man. And then see what happens. You know?
01:13:12
Chilly
Yeah, I mean, even, um you know, obviously when we got to, you know, play, again, against Michigan, we played a legit 30-minute game. um And even that, like, it's a it even felt like just a different intensity level, you know, out there.
01:13:28
Chilly
Even just kind of giving them, because obviously they wanted to practice too, um you know you know, in that game, You know, you learned a lot about what you can do and you can't do, even from like an A-level, you know.
01:13:42
Chilly
So, um ah you know you know, yes, we did win, um you know. And, you know, obviously, you know, we could run that game back, you know, and we may never beat them again. i don't know, you know.
01:13:56
Chilly
um But, you know, we did win. So, you know, for somebody like me, like I literally said when I walked off the court, like, I could go home. i Like I literally could have drove home that night. I'm like.
01:14:08
Chilly
I'll see y'all in Seattle. Like, that was, you know, man.
01:14:10
Sully Shaheed
It's the experience. It's the experience, man. Like you don't get, you don't get that anywhere else.
01:14:15
Chilly
Yeah, it was a different feeling. So um would it be cool to play in if they allowed us to play in it? Yes. You know, but, again, we'll we'll see. You know, we'll we'll see what they say. Either, you know, because, again, you know although we have Patrick, you know, Patrick's team Cleveland.
Anticipation for 2025 Nationals
01:14:33
Chilly
So, my you know, just let our A team play in it.
01:14:38
Sully Shaheed
C-Town, bitch. um So and now that we talked about some tournament stuff, let's let's talk about some fun stuff. um I have a hypothetical for you.
01:14:50
Chilly
All right.
01:14:50
Sully Shaheed
if you could If you had to move and play for another center, a life job comes up, something like that, because we've seen you know Jeremy, who's been a long time, Michigan guy, he's going to be Chicago guy now, you know something like that.
01:15:06
Sully Shaheed
If you had a dream center, That you can move to. Who who who would you play with?
01:15:14
Sully Shaheed
You can't represent Cleveland anymore. You're out of here. You're gone.
01:15:14
Chilly
um
Whirly Ball Memorabilia and Humor
01:15:18
Sully Shaheed
Who are you playing with?
01:15:18
Chilly
oh Yeah, I'm probably going to go play for Seattle.
01:15:27
Chilly
ah ah that That's probably – for me personally, ah already play like them, already were learned from Tom.
01:15:27
Sully Shaheed
Why?
01:15:37
Chilly
um Again, we play pretty similar to them, so I don't think it's a hard fit. ah Plus, they're a literal factory of talent. So, you know, they very rarely go through a drought.
01:15:50
Chilly
um You know, if you look at some of these these other centers, you know, what are they doing talent-wise? You know, Chicago is building, ah you know, building up their player pool, which is good for them. We're slowly trying to build up our player pool.
01:16:04
Chilly
Texas, you know, Michigan, I think, is in a little bit of an influx of talent versus what they got coming up. Yeah.
01:16:15
Chilly
Texas, again, man, a lot of those guys, they they do life, you know, they're and stuff like that and um and stuff like that. So for me, Seattle, ah i mean, in terms of this, number one, i can legitimately move out to Seattle for my job.
01:16:31
Chilly
ah Number two, ah number two, the the city itself, I do like it there. And there is a lot of ah all the other extra shit that I do outside of Forley Ball.
01:16:42
Chilly
There's a lot of that there. And like high competition level. So, but yeah, no, Seattle for me, ah just from a whirly ball playing fit makes the most sense.
01:16:47
Sully Shaheed
Sure.
01:16:54
Chilly
And again, you're learning from, look at all the experience you're learning from, not to say that the other centers don't offer it, um but you, you have guys that have done nothing but win there, you know, ah James, Joe, Barrett, you know, you got a lot of these.
01:17:08
Sully Shaheed
rafiel
01:17:09
Chilly
so I mean, Christy, Carl, again, you know, just to mention, i'm you know, I'm sure I'm missing a few. But um again, just the that the talent that comes out of that place. And again, play most similar to them. So I don't think it would be that hard of an adjustment for me to play with them.
01:17:33
Sully Shaheed
That's a good response. I like that. I like that. I wonder how other players would feel, you know, if they were proposed that question as well. um
01:17:43
Sully Shaheed
I mean, obviously I would go to Texas.
01:17:45
Chilly
Where are
01:17:46
Sully Shaheed
Texas. Texas, without question. Without question. I would play with Texas. Those are... Texas or Michigan...
01:17:52
Chilly
you playing? You don't want to go play with your cousins in Michigan?
01:17:57
Sully Shaheed
I said, or Michigan, or Michigan. I would play with my family every fucking day of the week.
01:18:00
Chilly
with
01:18:02
Sully Shaheed
Austin is one of my favorite players to play against and with. So he's fucking fiery, he's electric, and he's funny as shit. So, I mean, it's a pleasure to get to experience that. But like I said, from an experience, you know, experience-wise, you know, Michigan's got it.
01:18:20
Sully Shaheed
And then Texas-wise, like I said, they play um a more more fit to my game. you know what I'm saying? Well-rounded, uh, big boys on defense. Um, and they shoot from their forehead, just like me.
01:18:32
Sully Shaheed
So, uh, it works. It fits. So, uh, yeah, I would love to play with the Texas guys. I proposed it last year, you know, even though he's not coming this year, but I would play on any team with Chris Flores any day of the damn week.
01:18:45
Sully Shaheed
I don't care if I got my shit pushed in. I know it would be fun for me. It would be fun for me. So any who, um, Any closing thoughts 2025 Nationals? We'll probably get a but probably try to get another podcast in before we take off.
01:19:03
Sully Shaheed
um I am moving currently, so my walls are bare. Everything's in boxes. So I'll be at a new location soon. But as soon as I set up um next week at my new location, I'll try to get one in.
01:19:16
Sully Shaheed
Again, if anybody wants to be a guest on the show, more than happy to send me a message. We'll get you on. um and talk some pre-Nationals thoughts. And then obviously we'll be back right after Nationals to recap everything we went through and kind of see how our predictions held up and kind of go from there. So closing thoughts on 2025 Worley Ball Nationals in Seattle.
01:19:40
Chilly
and It's going to be fun. um Obviously, the only the only pitfall to Seattle is we'll be breathing on top of each other, ah which kind of sucks. But, um again, I do enjoy the center.
01:19:50
Sully Shaheed
Yep.
01:19:53
Chilly
ah Again, carts, courts, okay with me. It is one of my favorite places to play at. Again, I think there will be some good Worley Ball played.

Yeah, the tweeter.
01:24:59
Sully Shaheed
So, you know, you and Anthony, Anthony,

Chilly
Noah. Yep, Noah.
01:25:05
Sully Shaheed
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
01:25:07
Chilly
Honestly, at this point, i don't like I don't know where you want to put – well I think we'll take Barrett. I think Barrett's getting a little chunky. Come on.
01:25:15
Sully Shaheed
Come on.
01:25:19
Chilly
I mean, we could put Barrett in the next line.
01:25:19
Sully Shaheed
So, yeah. but
01:25:23
Sully Shaheed
So, the after the tweeners.
01:25:23
Chilly
Women and children.
01:25:26
Chilly
Yeah, after the tweeners. Women and children and Eric, you guys are safe.
01:25:31
Sully Shaheed
Yep, they're excluded, right right?
01:25:33
Chilly
Yep.
01:25:33
Sully Shaheed
Women and children are safe.
01:25:34
Chilly
win and and
01:25:34
Sully Shaheed
so Sean Morad, don't worry about it.
01:25:36
Chilly
And Eric. Eric LaPlante.
01:25:42
Chilly
yeah
01:25:45
Sully Shaheed
la because we have to have another wave of fodder okay because I'm thinking like the big boys go first get killed off then that then then our then our tweeners go and then the rest of the fodder so like LaPlante Slim fucking Jarrett's going all right because he ain't putting up a goddamn fight against the fuck gorilla you can forget that Brad's gone he's gone Kyle's gone John Webber's gone
01:26:06
Chilly
Brad, Brad, Brad, Patenia, Kyle.

01:26:20
Chilly
Is he scrappy?
01:26:20

01:26:23
Sully Shaheed
I think Beckett can strap.
01:26:23

01:26:25
Sully Shaheed
i think Beckett can strap for sure.
01:26:25
Chilly
All right.
01:26:27
Chilly
as so I mean, and again, then we're looking at like a Joe Tiffany or Barrett.
01:26:32
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. Yeah.
01:26:35
Chilly
Oh, yeah.
01:26:35
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, absolutely.
01:26:35
Chilly
Oh, I forgot the forgot the... James. James, you're on the front line. Unless we're giving the Hall of Fame a pass.
01:26:41
Sully Shaheed
and i think we decided we're given I think we decided we're giving the Hall of Famers a pass.
01:26:41
Chilly
Something like James and Carl.
01:26:46
Sully Shaheed
I think we decided.
01:26:46
Chilly
Okay, so James. James, Carl, Sam.
01:26:48
Sully Shaheed
Because he will offer he will honor the fallen.
01:26:52
Sully Shaheed
Okay, he will honor the fallen.
01:26:52
Chilly
let's let's let's be let's Let's be real.
01:26:55
Chilly
The only Hall of Famer not getting pass is Clint. Clint, your fodder.
01:26:59
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah. Clint's fucking fodder.
01:27:00
Chilly
Yeah.
01:27:01
Sully Shaheed
Fucking fodder.
01:27:02
Chilly
Yep. Sorry, Clint. Yep.
01:27:04
Sully Shaheed
Doug is a tweener. He's going. Fuck, nope.
01:27:06
Chilly
and Snowy.
01:27:09
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, nope. Nope. Fucking fodder, man. Fucking fodder. Sorry. Sorry. I think 97% of the Chicago guys, they're fucking fodder.
01:27:15
Chilly
All right. so So...
01:27:22
Sully Shaheed
You know, regardless of where you want to put them.
01:27:23
Chilly
yeah no did me
01:27:26
Sully Shaheed
Where want to put them on the lines, they're fodder.
01:27:27
Chilly
They got it. Walter could maybe sneak into that women and children line. Yeah.
01:27:39
Sully Shaheed
I mean, you're right. You're right. You're totally right. You're totally right. But we've determined that like the actual like, oh, like rolly ball athletes, like the ones that are in shape and muscular and whatever, we're going in the fucking back. We're finishing the fucking job.
01:27:57
Sully Shaheed
Okay. That's our, that's our hope. If they can make it, if the gorilla can make it past Josh and talking him out of fighting us, I think the people in the back will be all right.
01:28:09
Sully Shaheed
Okay, so we got your football players. We got Kalen, all right? Myself, fucking Patrick Bruce, right? Like, we got to put the, you know.
01:28:19
Chilly
we We're bust. wall Wall's fighting. He doesn't have a choice.
01:28:23
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. I mean, you got to put you gotta to put the the the monsters in the back.
01:28:24
Chilly
Yeah.
01:28:26
Sully Shaheed
Oh, oh, God. Oh, oh, Steve. Oh, you're fodder. Oh, Steve.
01:28:31
Chilly
yeah its yeah
01:28:32
Sully Shaheed
Poor Steve. Oh, God. hes He's getting killed off with Jared. Right? Probably back to back.
01:28:40
Chilly
mean
01:28:40
Sully Shaheed
That's a rough one.
01:28:42
Chilly
Jarrett would literally get ripped in half.
01:28:44
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, that'll be a quick one. That'll be a quick one.
01:28:47
Sully Shaheed
Like I said, our only real x factoror our only real X factor is Josh.
01:28:47
Chilly
Literally, yes.
01:28:49
Chilly
speech
01:28:51
Sully Shaheed
If Josh can talk the gorilla out of it, it could stop at, like, whirly baller number 33. You know? l So i think I think we'll be okay, but by the time they hit like 90, know what I'm saying, when you get like the rest of the athletes in there, and think we'll be okay.
01:29:00
Chilly
Maybe.
01:29:08
Sully Shaheed
I think we'll be okay.
01:29:10
Chilly
I mean, Ricky gets a pass, but you think Ricky could out-taekwondo the gorilla? Yeah.
01:29:14
Sully Shaheed
Nah, Ricky's fucking on a fucking defibrillator, isn't he? He's dead.
01:29:19
Chilly
He gets the Hall of Fame pass.
01:29:21
Sully Shaheed
He gets the Hall of Fame pass, but ain't putting Ricky out there.
01:29:23
Chilly
he
01:29:23
Sully Shaheed
Ricky's fucking, he's dead.
01:29:24
Chilly
His son's dead. His son's dead.
01:29:25
Sully Shaheed
He's dead. He's dead. Oh, women and children are gone.
01:29:28
Chilly
Oh, no. i
01:29:29
Sully Shaheed
Sean is under 18.
01:29:32
Chilly
Oh, women and children.
01:29:32
Sully Shaheed
He is under 18. He doesn't count. Okay?
01:29:36
Chilly
i think i think was
01:29:36
Sully Shaheed
Can't do it.
01:29:37
Chilly
we send them. Fuck them.
01:29:39
Sully Shaheed
Full send.
01:29:40
Chilly
Fodder.
01:29:41
Sully Shaheed
i yeah So I guess the real question after, like, we have our lineup and they somehow, this gorilla somehow gets through 199. One through Who that's take it home,
01:29:56
Sully Shaheed
Who is defeating this goddamn gorilla?
01:29:59
Sully Shaheed
Who is man 100?
01:29:59
Chilly
I don't think we...
01:30:00
Chilly
Who is Man 100? It's...
01:30:02
Sully Shaheed
after After the hour and a half mark of this podcast, we need to know who is man 100. I gotta know.
01:30:10
Chilly
Man. It's probably got to be some...
01:30:12
Sully Shaheed
Gotta know.
01:30:13
Chilly
I don't think it's anybody current.
01:30:16
Sully Shaheed
Mmm.
01:30:17
Chilly
I don't think it's i don't think it's anybody current.
01:30:17
Sully Shaheed
Mmm.
01:30:20
Chilly
I think it's probably one the former probably one of the former like seattle legends. probably i mean they've had some I mean, I know my I've never met Mike Wall's dad, but i assume he probably ah he's probably a big fella, right?
01:30:38
Chilly
think his name's Larry.
01:30:38
Sully Shaheed
I was going to say Mike. I was going to say Mike Wall himself is man 100.
01:30:43
Chilly
Yeah. Yeah, we can put a Wall there.
01:30:46
Sully Shaheed
Because you know who man 99 is? Fucking Johnny O. I'm putting Johnny's big ass at 99 right before Mike Wall.
01:30:52
Chilly
Yeah. e can
01:30:58
Sully Shaheed
And if Mike Wall can't finish the job, we're all fucked.
01:30:59
Chilly
um my
01:31:03
Sully Shaheed
Sorry.
01:31:04
Chilly
I mean, listen, if we go so we can make we can make Mike Wall, Mike Wall could be 100. Now, can I get like a 20-year-old version of Johnny O?
01:31:17
Chilly
Because ah i'm not saying I'm not saying he would have been weak or a this you know this may have been a needle, but yeah.
01:31:23
Sully Shaheed
we go We can go historical. whos The historical version of the player.
01:31:26
Chilly
Yeah. You give me you yeah you give me give me the 20-year-old, 30-year-old version of Johnny-O. He's twice the size that he is now.
01:31:40
Sully Shaheed
Okay. All right.
01:31:41
Chilly
um
01:31:42
Sully Shaheed
So you're saying the Whirly Ballers could win. Is that what you're saying?
01:31:46
Chilly
i mean so after I mean, before Johnny, i mean don't forget, man, can we get could we get one Billy Tigger in there? He ain't a small dude.
01:31:53
Sully Shaheed
Oh, good call, good call, good call, good call.
01:31:54
Chilly
Yeah.
01:31:59
Chilly
yeah Yeah, i think i think I think Patrick has to be towards the back of the bus as well. Patrick got to be in the ninety s
01:32:07
Sully Shaheed
You got to be in the 90s. Yeah, sure, sure, sure, sure.
01:32:09
Chilly
Yeah, Patrick. Patrick's in the 90s.
01:32:12
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, yeah.
01:32:13
Chilly
As much as I like Arkell, I think Arkell is just too skinny.
01:32:19
Sully Shaheed
I mean, you got to put in some X factors, though. Like, you know, because we got a lot of stoners.
01:32:22
Chilly
He could sell him.
01:32:25
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, we got a lot of stoners and like, and you know what I'm saying? There's a lot of stoners in Whirly Ball. So we can get the gorilla high a little bit, throw him off his game. I don't know. Might open up the door, you know, for some success.
01:32:38
Sully Shaheed
You know what I'm saying? So just kind of throw that out there. Just kind throw that out there.
01:32:43
Chilly
Yeah, man. ah do I think the gorilla still wins.
01:32:48
Sully Shaheed
ah
01:32:48
Chilly
think that I think the gorilla punches us out.
01:32:53
Sully Shaheed
i don't think I don't think the gorilla's making it past 20, man. Because as soon as Josh gets out there, as soon as Josh gets out there, the gorilla's going to go of fucking jump off something.
01:32:57
Chilly
I don't know, bro.
01:33:03
Chilly
