Speaker: But nonetheless, we can talk about that later on down the road. We got Derek in the building. Long time no see. How you been, brother? I've been pretty good. Like you said, I've just been really busy lately.
Speaker: Makes it sound like he does something other than his other than show up to court. His paralegals do it all. Yeah. ah Well, mostly I'm golfing. Oh, ah had it I forget the attorneys get that luxurious duty. Yeah.
Speaker: Mostly I'm golfing. Golfing. Going to plays. Going to the PA tour. The only, I haven't been keeping up with pretty, ah mostly anything except for watching Tennessee and Kentucky play in basketball college.
Speaker: ah yeah ah I heard Derek got invited to the next live golf tournament over in the Middle East somewhere. and No, thank you. night i'm not I'm not going over there. No chance.
Speaker: Hard pass. Yeah, definitely a hard pass on that one. ah Real quick, obviously, you know, it is the NFL offseason. There's been a lot of things going on, but real quick before we get into talking about that, ah just NBA real quick. Shout out my Cleveland Cavaliers franchise record, 16 games in a row.
Speaker: Leading the and NBA with the best team in the NBA, the playoffs are right around the corner, man. playoff NBA finals are right around the corner. NHL, Stanley Cup playoffs are right around the corner.
Speaker: Somehow, someway, by Crook or Thief, the fucking Blue Jackets are going to fight to the last game and manage to get a playoff spot you just to get knocked out in the first round by probably Tampa Bay or some dumb shit like that.
Speaker: and And we got March Madness right around the corner, boys. Yeah. um We got all the conference um championships going on. um I know Michigan's playing Wisconsin in the semis today after a wild game against Maryland.
Speaker: When do we need to do our brackets? Yeah. I don't think they've released the tourney schedule yet, but as soon as they do. you going to come to the link to send all of us for us to use for the bracket?
Speaker: Yeah, typically yeah ESPN, Yahoo, one of them, they you can you can do you can do brackets and invite your friends and whatnot, they kind of like a fantasy football league.
Speaker: So once they release it and once I have that, I'll set up, I'll send you guys a link and we can just throw together a March Madness bracket. And it don't really matter how how good or bad we do. Just something to do so we can talk shit to each other.
Speaker: ah I don't know last year, last year I did, I did something like that with a group of friends and we had two brackets each and one was our serious bracket. And the other one was like our fucked up bracket where we just had the, it was just upset. Crazy.
Speaker: You know, you, you, you pick those random ass teams. Um, and those random ass teams actually did pretty well in those brackets last year. i was kind of shocked. Um, you always have those Cinderella stories, but, um,
Speaker: Not a whole, I mean, like i said, the biggest news in the NBA right now is the Cavs winning streak at 16 games. They're going for 17 right now. ah The number one overall seed is a battle between the Cavs and the Thunder.
Speaker: The Cavs have a one-game lead on the Thunder currently. ah But outside of that, Luka and LeBron are finally meshing in L.A. Not that that matters, nor does anybody care because LeBron James is a bum.
Speaker: me He's a flopper, that's for sure. Oh my god, I never said clip of him the other day where acted like he caught an elbow. Yes, that was hilarious. I mean, not even close, and my guy's like, I don't even think he caught a shadow, bro. He caught the breeze and ran past him. And he's like holding his face, too. Yeah, he's... I thought only soccer was able to do that shit.
Speaker: i thought only soer was able to do that shit Dude, they've been doing it in the and NBA for years. And LeBron is... lebron is you know I'm ah a LeBron fan. I've always been a LeBron fan.
Speaker: I was never mad at him for leaving in Cleveland. But these last couple seasons, him in LA, it's been kind of a joke. um But he's always been the king of the flop in the and NBA, man. yeah I remember watching Cavs games and nobody would be near him and all a sudden he's flying across the court.
Speaker: And it's like... the fuck just happened? You know, like, what what is happening to you right now, dude? So, but but him and Luca are finally meshing in L.A., which could be a bad thing for the or the West, I'm sorry, um because LeBron still does have, you know, he's still got some gas in the tank, and Luca's young, man. He's hes he's definitely got a lot of gas in his tank, so Yeah, he's good.
Speaker: He's good.
Speaker: Definitely a wild trade from ah Dallas to L.A. That kind of blew my mind when that happened a few weeks back. um But outside of that, not a whole lot major going on. and NBA, NCAA basketball. Nobody pays attention to NCAA basketball until we get to March Madness. Let's be honest.
Speaker: I just started paying attention because – Yeah, because of the Big Ten Conference, you know, the Big Ten Conference tournament. I've just started paying attention because Michigan's in it, and they're they're playing pretty well. And, of course, we seen Little Brother choke again the other night and get knocked out of Michigan State, so that was great.
Speaker: Ohio State's really struggling right now, too. I've seen that they're in Ohio State. Their dreams have been shattered. And and they've they've had a couple of good last probably five, six years, but this year they're they're riding the struggle bus in basketball.
Speaker: It's funny. We can talk about basketball like it's nothing. But when it comes to football, if I say Ohio State's struggling, you're like, yeah, fuck them. But in basketball, you're like, man, oh no yeah they're they're struggling. Yeah.
Speaker: they They are. and no i mean i never i like I enjoy when Ohio State is good in football. Still, fuck them. I would much rather that but series, that rivalry, come down to both teams being good.
Speaker: um and and I would love to see both teams make the playoffs one year. Michigan and Ohio State potentially play each other. our rivalry is more football based than it is any other sport for this. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker: Yeah. Because at the end of the day, the last several years, Michigan has owned Ohio state and all sports across the board. The hockey team absolutely dominates them.
Speaker: The basketball team has been, yeah it's it's it's wild to see how across the board, how much Michigan has been dominating Ohio State. But nobody gives a fuck about anything outside of football. So you have to be a fan of the school.
Speaker: Yeah. Hockey again, not a whole lot going on. I will say, Rick, your favorite player is getting closer and closer to Gretzky's.
Speaker: ah that's Such a fucking dirtbag.
Speaker: He's getting closer closer to Gretzky's record. ah walle ohs Yeah, Derek, we got new music coming. That's what we're doing. Yeah, we read the chat. We read the chat, man.
Speaker: we always read read the chatman yeah
Speaker: I listening to Derek's music the other day at work. Nice. Yep. I was making everybody at work listen to it, too. Derek's always in my rotation.
Speaker: ae my My boss actually asked him about it. He asked what it was. I said, it's the guy we actually do the Sunday podcast with when he's there. and he's like, what do you mean when he's there? I was like, he's not there all the time.
Speaker: He's like, why isn't he there all the time? I said, well, he says it's something to do with family music, but I think as an attorney, he's kind of tangled up in shit.
Speaker: He's like, he's an attorney? I said, make pretend. Hey, I'm a pretend it attorney. He's a nonsensical network attorney. He's a nonsensical network attorney. We're going to need him eventually, especially if I keep popping off on Wednesdays and Saturdays with my random.
Speaker: But, uh, the, uh, I hope that record gets broke. Which record Wally? Uh, Yeah, like I said, not much going on in hockey.
Speaker: Obviously, everybody's going, going you know, they're winding down to the end of the season, trying to get those final spots in the playoffs for the Stanley Cup series and whatnot. So, yeah.
Speaker: Baseball is just doing what baseball does. They're doing baseball things in springtime. Not really whole lot to talk about in baseball. However, the ah you know it's you know, it's crazy. We're in the offseason in the NFL. And we still predominantly yeah we still predominantly talk the NFL here um um um this show.
Speaker: um Now the UFL is getting ready to start. I am looking forward to that season. yeahp We talked about that a little bit last week. ah Definitely looking forward to that. I know we said that by the end of the season, we're picking teams.
Speaker: I know we have like, I have like a preliminary team with, with the Michigan Panthers. And I think I can't remember who the other one was, but at the end of the season, I'm going to have a full fledged team that I'm going to be pulling for moving forward in the UFL.
Speaker: um But yeah, this, this week has been wild and free agency. And before we get too much into, I want to ask you guys a question. Cause you got three big names.
Speaker: Still hanging out, looking for possible trade, looking for a possible signing. And those three big names are Rodgers, Wilson, and Cousins.
Speaker: Wilson is staying in ah Pittsburgh. You think he's going to stay at Pittsburgh? They got rid of Fields already.
Speaker: Yeah, they got rid of Fields. Russell Wilson did. So they've got all three of those guys linked to the Giants. I read an article the other day. It depends on what media outlet you look at because the Jets' Facebook page says that Wilson's linked to the Jets, too. It depends on what you look at. Well, the Jets just signed Fields.
Speaker: Yeah, theres the Jets just signed Fields. So, I mean, are you going to are the Jets going to do the same thing that Pittsburgh just did? No. no and i don't Like I said, it all depends on what media outlet you look at. I think that Wilson's going to stay in Pittsburgh.
Speaker: They just brought in DK Metcalf. So that puts those two back together. We know they have a good history playing together. We know they know each other very well. I think that Tomlin keeps keeps ah Wilson and with Metcalf, and they just try to make a push for a deep playoff run.
Speaker: Yeah, I know this i know this week Russ did visit with the Browns and the Giants. i know't I'm not going to be that guy where it's like, oh I hope we get Russell Wilson. I don't. You've got one year left with fucking Watson.
Speaker: Yeah, if we pick up a veteran and quarterback, I would really like to see Cleveland make a move for Kirk Cousins. Kirk Cousins has announced he's staying with Atlanta and he's getting $10 million for it. Well, that just came out just a couple hours ago that that Atlanta could still possibly – Get rid of him before that $10 million guaranteed deadline.
Speaker: But I think, but like he said, he's like, I'm perfectly fine hanging out on the bench being a backup. Who wouldn't for $10 million? dollars he's making He's making stupid money. That's $10 million on top of the $100 million he got guaranteed.
Speaker: Yeah, you're going give me $110 million dollars just to sit on the bench and do nothing. i don't have to get my ass kicked for 18 weeks. who Yeah, I'm in. Kurt Crosby.
Speaker: ah Cooper Rush did just end up with the Ravens as backup to Jackson. Yeah. As one-hour backup, we just need to add up is Yeah, Cooper Cup. Yeah, he did get picked up. He got picked up by Seattle. yeah seattle He's in Seattle. seattle Dude, Seattle's entire offense looks different right now. They've got, they they picked up Sam Darnold.
Speaker: Yep. DK's gone. Tyler Lockett's gone. They picked up Cooper Cup. They also picked up Valdez Scatling. Scatling?
Speaker: Scatling? Whatever. Scatling? Yep. Yeah. um So hopefully Kenneth Walker will be healthy by the beginning of the season for them. So their theirre their offense looks totally different in Seattle right now.
Speaker: Najee Harris got signed by the Chargers. Bosa to the Bills.
Speaker: After they released Von Miller. If Bosa can stay healthy, um Hello, that's the edge rush I think Buffalo needs.
Speaker: That's on the top left. but What? Bro, I didn't even understand it when I read it, and it was weird. Originally conjoined twins, but at age 10, they grew into two people and got surgically separated.
Speaker: Meanwhile, the guy on the bottom, Derek, is their younger brother. was just... um but right whatever you are Whatever you're on, I want two of them. Yeah, right. brets He's related.
Speaker: Posted to the Bills. yeah ah
Speaker: When the fans run on the field. That's because usually a player floors them.
Speaker: ah If you could cast charles Charlie Sheen to play any NFL player in a movie, which would it be? George Kittle. one One that's retired. George Kittle.
Speaker: Yeah. ah No, man. Najee Harris went to the Chargers, which is great for the Steelers because I'm sorry. I think Jalen Warren is a much better running back than Najee.
Speaker: And the Steelers should have sort of had him starting all season over Najee. The Steelers picked up DK. Now they have a legit A legit solid wide receiver one, in my opinion.
Speaker: sure i can see um
Speaker: oh Jordan Mason to the Vikings? Yeah. ah Mason Rudolph back to Pittsburgh. Kenny Pickett to Cleveland. Jesus Christ.
Speaker: Mason Rudolph went back to the Steelers. And did y'all see the stupid move? We picked up a Brandon Allen. Yeah, who the fuck is Brendan Allen? Who is this guy?
Speaker: I'm like, what? And they announced it on like the Titans page, and I'm like, for what? You could have just kept that to yourself. How about Juszczyk stayed with us with the Niners for a two-year $8 million?
Speaker: Who did? Oh, really? Kyle Juszczyk, yep. he re He's returned to the Niners on a two-year $8 million dollars contract. Nice. What was I right about, Wally? Yeah, I see that for the Titans, and I was like, are they just making up names in Tennessee now? Like, we signed Brandon. Who is this guy? I think he played backup to Josh one year and Buffalo.
Speaker: Yeah, yeah i don't i've never like I said, I've never heard of the guy, but I mean. Yeah, I don't care, man. i ain't never heard of him, didn't hear of him coming out of college. He come here, nobody knows who he is. I mean.
Speaker: Did you hear what just happened in Kansas City? Uh-uh. They're about to be under Minshew Mania behind Mahomes. Oh, yeah. Minshew was coming.
Speaker: Oh, yeah, yeah. heard that. Yeah, Minshew to the Chiefs to back up. They said, what did the article say? They said, career-long backup quarterback goes to KC. And I'm like, what the fuck is that? And then I had to read the article. And I'm like, I mean, Minshew's had some highlight years.
Speaker: Dang, Daniel Jones with the c Colts.
Speaker: he i'm yeah but I'm kind of bummed. i'm Okay, so I got to be honest with you. I'm really kind of sad about one move that Buffalo made that really actually kind of broke my heart. um We let funny man, no shoes, Matt Collins walk to the fucking Patriots.
Speaker: Oh, Mac Hollins was a clutch guy for Josh on so many occasions, and we let him walk to the Patriots. So now he's squared ah against us twice a year.
Speaker: The 49ers also grabbed Mac Jones for two-year $7 million dollars deal. Yeah, see, Mac Jones went, and you said Daniel Jones went to the Colts?
Speaker: yeah Yeah, yeah. That I didn't see. Yeah, um I got NFL.com pulled up right here. and Yeah,
Speaker: he said he's eager to compete for the starting job with Anthony Richardson.
Speaker: Hmm. I'm excited. I'm excited about the Bosa signing. um Von Miller was not being productive. If Bosa can stay healthy, I think that's a great pickup for Buffalo.
Speaker: However, that's a big if with Bosa because the last three seasons he's not made whole seasons because he isn't hasn't been healthy. And we picked up Ogunjobi from Pittsburgh, but he's got to sit the first six games on a suspension for peds.
Speaker: Oh, shit. Two of the guys we picked up. Both the new D's that we picked up got us in six games for suspension for peds. Damn. Performance enhancing Deb, you got a stomach bug over there? Got a little bunch of puke-faced emojis?
Speaker: think that's the emoji button. Yeah, she's a little special. To Marcus Lawrence, the Seahawks. Yeah. um C.D. Lamb got a nice big payday from from Dallas.
Speaker: That doesn't surprise me. To lock him in. I'm glad to see that happen. Not necessarily am I glad to see him still in Dallas, but I'm glad he got a payday. you just You just got Malik Collins, the defensive tackle.
Speaker: the Yeah, we got Malik Collins. It sounds like Cincinnati is going to... finally give T. Higgins some money and try to keep him. They're in the works with Higgins and Jamar Chase.
Speaker: Kyrie Elam from Buffalo goes to Dallas. Nice. And I will say Kyrie Elam. Oh, who's that Defense?
Speaker: No, he's a court royal ah yeah ah we yeah corner. we let him go and kept Hamlin.
Speaker: i was kind of mad. thought he was dead. He did die, but then he got reincarnated. He came back. and He came back. Ever since he got reincarnated, he's been actually a pretty decent football player. He had like three years of his career.
Speaker: He's got a zombie. He's got a zombie. He's made some retardedly hard hits for a guy who died. Now he must feel like Superman. He's invincible. like He's got zombie power. He's zombie power.
Speaker: guys got a damn zombie on the team. ah And the old saying, you know, money talks and bullshit walks. ah Miles Garrett was like, I'm done in Cleveland. I want out of Cleveland. And he became the highest paid non quarterback in the league.
Speaker: Cleveland cut him a big old fat paycheck. 40 million a year. It's funny because he got that right after. 40 million. Yeah. Yeah. He got there right after, what's his name, and the got his. Yeah, he was like, oh, no, Max, you're not outdoing me. He's to be signing this off and being like $8 million. I'm happy for him but, man, you don't you don't don't nobody tackle enough quarterbacks to earn $40 million dollars a year.
Speaker: He's locked into a tire in Cleveland at this point. Yeah, they was they've got him – They've got him locked in for the next five years. And in his contract, they have a no trade clause. So like no trade clause.
Speaker: So he's locked into Cleveland. So Cleveland, and I will say this, I will say this initially, Miles Garrett got advice from fucking LeBron James of all people.
Speaker: But before the deal was made, i guess him and Joe Thomas sat down and had a ah nice long conversation. And we all, you know, anybody who watched football knows Joe Thomas was one of the best offensive linemen in the league when he was in Cleveland. And he, he, he was drafted and he retired in Cleveland and he loves the city of Cleveland.
Speaker: You know, like, but even though they never won championship or even seen the playoffs. But I think they had a, they had a conversation. So I think Joe talks some sense into his head. Like, yo man, you're not going to find a fan base any better than these, these diehard lunatics because when we suck, they still love us.
Speaker: Yeah. yeah DeAndre Hopkins to the Ravens. That makes me a little nervous. That's going to... That's a big pick-up for Baltimore, I think.
Speaker: Yeah, yeah let's let's keep giving Baltimore a bunch of weapons. you know let's let's just but Because Jackson's not dangerous enough, let's give him more to work with, right? Yeah, you we got Derrick Henry, D-Hop, Mark Andrews. with joe Maybe Andrews is starting to slow down a pig. Is Zay Flowers there or is he with the Bills?
Speaker: No, he's not with the Bills. Zay Flowers is with the Ravens. Yeah, okay. Yeah. And then you got, you know, yeah, Mark Andrews might be slowing down. He's getting a little bit up there in age.
Speaker: Then you got that damn Isaiah Likely kid coming right up behind Mark Andrews, who's a monster. yeah like let's Let's keep giving the Ravens more weapons as if they're already not a headache in the AFC.
Speaker: Yeah, AFC teams just don't seem to pick up the players that the Ravens could snatch up on them. Fucking idiots. How about this one? This one rub you just right, Glick, because you love the underdog stories.
Speaker: Jacoby Brissett manages to stay in the NFL for one more fucking year. Let's go, Jacoby. He's going to the Cardinals this time. Cardinals are going to the playoffs. Jacoby Bissett will lead them.
Speaker: Little with his quarterback coach in Cleveland, Drew Petsing. He was the quarterback coach when Brissette was there, and now he's the OC for the Cardinals.
Speaker: So Brissette goes to play back up to the little motherfucker that is Kyler Murray. I'm calling it now. Kyler Murray strings his thumbs playing Call of Duty, and he's out for the season, and Jacoby Brissette comes in, and the Cardinals go to the playoffs. Oh, my God.
Speaker: Pulls the all-one. Wacko. and no no yeah both Not Joe Flacco. ah Nick Foles. they Oh, yeah. yeah and and and And Will Levy's is going to have ah a breakout season this year.
Speaker: Hell no. Don't even. Don't even. Don't even. He's going to throw for 6,000 yards, 75, Teddy. That's why I don't know why we picked this other guy up. Like, what are we doing? So, like, we're saying, and Will, the guy, like, nah, man, we should have not picked up a quarterback whatsoever.
Speaker: You're barely into the offseason. Either bet or going to the draft. I think we should have got a bet because don't really see nothing in the draft that I want this year. you guys You guys, the season hasn't even – we're barely into the offseason, and the Titans are already going for the number one pick next year.
Speaker: they They're already throwing in the towel. Yeah, obviously. Obviously. Hey, that's what Miami did to become competitive. They sucked for a few years. they They stacked up like a couple years ago. They had like 14 picks or something crazy.
Speaker: In the draft. was like, Jesus. And they got pretty good, but I guess it wasn't good enough. cause to Well, really just Tua. If Tua could have stayed healthy, man. Hey, man, you leave like you leave my guy Skyler Thompson alone.
Speaker: He's a beast. He's a baller. He's an island, dude.
Speaker: Skylar Thompson, baby. Let's go. yeah It's like, yeah, man, the Browns doing Mayfield dirty, man. Dude,
Speaker: and it is it is hard to be a Cleveland Browns fan because it's like only the you know only the Cleveland Browns can screw up a wet dream with instructions.
Speaker: Or the same Like, what are you doing, man?
Speaker: Yeah, I don't know what's going on, man. Just bad ownership is what I attribute it to because it's like, man, hire good managers and let them do their job. Yeah, I think a lot of the struggles in in the NFL with with certain teams comes down to the front office. What are you doing?
Speaker: Yeah, it's just like an executive producer of a movie trying to like insert things on a movie. It's like, dude, shut up and go do your job and let the people who make the movies make the movies.
Speaker: Same thing with football. Let the people who manage football and coach football do that and you just manage the money that keeps the team together.
Speaker: The Pastronaut went to the Pat Riots and Josh Dobbs. Josh Dobbs. Oh, Jesus. He's still in the league? Yep.
Speaker: The old powder. He went to the Pat Riots for two years. Man, he's been passed around.
Speaker: Who? Josh Dobbs. His career will end there. Oh, Dobbs. Yeah, yeah former former volunteer, wasn't he? wasn't Didn't he go to Tennessee? yeah Yeah, he was a Tennessee volunteer.
Speaker: Yeah. He's pretty good in college. Yeah, he showed some potential. Yeah. Now he's got... But I don't see no quarterback action I like for Tennessee for this year, to be honest. What do you guys have?
Speaker: Number one. You guys got the number one pick? Yep. You wouldn't like to have... her No, I don't want Sanders, and I don't want Ward.
Speaker: Really? Okay. I mean, um I would like to see Ward. i Look, man, I think they'll be good, but they're not number one draft pick good, in my opinion. I can agree with that.
Speaker: You know what I mean? Well, according to the ESPN analysis, some of the commentators on ESPN, and that's because you're racist.
Speaker: It's because I'm realistic and their stay of based on the competition, but you know what I mean? Like they just don't have really, they're the top two this year.
Speaker: That'll make number one draft pick worthy to me. You see what I'm saying? there i would and And if I was at home, I'd be able to look it up. But there are some there are some ah QBs coming out of out of college this year that I think people are sleeping on. And like I said, I can't pull it up right right up right now. but Those are usually the ones you need. Yeah, there's a couple ones.
Speaker: There's a couple that people are sleeping on because they are they're they' are on this Sanders and Ward kick. But, yeah, there was there was a couple couple guys from a couple of the sports shows on ESPN. They're on this whole kick that Sanders' stock is dropping because because the NFL is racist.
Speaker: Because he's a black quarterback. And if he was a white quarterback, is his stock wouldn't be dropping like this. Nah, be a better ball player. Just be a better ball player, man. Stop it. yeah he's he's all used right in the height on Yeah, yeah he's he's riding the hype train, in my opinion. You know you look at Colorado's strength of schedule and the teams they play against, and he's getting hyped up because of who his daddy is at the end of the day.
Speaker: like you know maybe maybe Maybe this time next year we'll be sitting here eating our words, you know, because he comes out and he gets drafted and he has ah an amazing rookie season and we have to eat crow. But the way it looks now, I think he's all hype.
Speaker: Yeah, I think he's all hype. Neither one of them, Ward or Sanders, ain't happening. They're not going to have a breakout season. They might come in and look great for a couple of games.
Speaker: You know what i mean? They might pop in and look good for a couple of games. And I'm not saying they're going to be terrible, but and they're not carrying no team to the playoffs. They're not any it you know they're not changing any team's dynamics, in my opinion, at all.
Speaker: I'm not saying they're not good and that they won't be good later. I'm just saying right now, number one draft pick? No. These are your top five quarterbacks listed for the draft right now.
Speaker: Cam Ward, Shadur Sanders, Jackson Dart from Ole Miss, Jalen Milrow from Alabama, and Kyle McCord from Syracuse. I think the dark kid is is the is is a sleeper coming out of this coming out of this draft class.
Speaker: Your top running backs coming up in the draft class? Ashton Gentry from Boise State. Omarian Hampton from North Carolina. Trayvon Henderson from Ohio State, which I don't disagree with that.
Speaker: Quinshawn Judkins from Ohio State, another one I don't disagree with. That dude runs angry like Isaiah Pacheco. and Caleb Johnson from Iowa.
Speaker: Well, you know, for the Titans, we'll probably draft a kicker with the number one draft pick. Or you no they'll pick up they'll pick up one of the top three wide receivers coming out in the draft with no quarterback to throw to them because Levis can't have balled on the fucking field. We'll do something dumb exactly like that.
Speaker: They'll end up with Titoria McMillan from Arizona, Matthew Golden from Texas, or Amika Igbuka from Ohio State, and they'll fucking flop their first few seasons. And then they'll flop their first season, and we'll trade them to somebody, and they'll be amazing on the next team.
Speaker: They'll there'll be a fucking Justin Jeffries for that team. it If we're smart, we will trade the pick for next year to keep a nice number one draft pick. so Or maybe not number one, but a club and little nice high draft pick for next year. Look, you have one of the top tight ends coming out of college, and I'm really interested to see where Colston Loveland goes.
Speaker: Oh, dude, yeah. i'm i'm I'm very curious to see where Loveland goes. So, Derek, basically what you're saying is that Tennessee's going to take that number one pick and they're just going to draft a water boy? Pretty much.
Speaker: I hope they trade the pick and be smart and plan and start planning for next year because this season we're still not going to be any good. That's just the way it's going be. Let's just be what it is and go on and stack up and try to keep contracts together so that next year we'll have a really good team.
Speaker: In my opinion. Yeah, i um I am definitely – I'm curious to see where Loveland goes. Dude was an absolute – and not just because he was at Michigan, but the dude is an absolute animal. He's good. He's fucking good. i'm not Like even being a being from McChicken.
Speaker: Yeah. Yeah. That was funny. So the reason I said McChicken, there's quick short story. There's a guy on there on Facebook. I see his reels all the time. Freakin' Reakin' or something like that.
Speaker: And he goes up to his Puerto Rican friends and tries to get him say American words in English. And when he when he got to the like when he got to Kentucky, it was Kentucky. And then when he got to Michigan, the guy said it in with his Puerto Rican accent and it came out McChicken.
Speaker: So he calls it McChicken. So i' like, okay, it's no longer TTUN. It is now McChicken. Yeah. yeah I will call it McChicken. titans Titans fans are definitely riding in the same boat with us Browns fans.
Speaker: No, that that kid out of Dart, I think he's going to be the sleeper. oh miss Yeah, i see I see the thing the other day, and and and and he's he's he's been a four-year starter at Ole Miss. And somebody said something about, oh, he only had one good season.
Speaker: And I'm like, hold the fuck up. me go look and Before I could go look at stats, somebody posted his stats in the comments. And I was like, so I commented below, you know, the guy's stat or his, ah his, um ah whatever you want to call it, his Facebook post.
Speaker: And I was like, tell me you know nothing about college football without telling us you know nothing about college football because the kids had some amazing numbers. Now, granted, Ole Miss might not be one of those good, you know, top-tier teams or whatever, but the kids putting up 10,000 yards a season. Not even the top-tier team.
Speaker: Look at the conference they play. Yeah, look at the look at yeah and look at their competition. And he's putting up 3,000-plus yards, passing yards a season, you know, easy double-digit, uh,
Speaker: but touchdowns, you know, his touchdowns outweigh his far outweigh his interceptions. Yeah. ah that's like saying that Iowa doesn't produce a good defense. Um, bullshit. Iowa had probably the top defense in the big 10 all year long.
Speaker: They kept almost every team they played to less than 20 points. Wow. You know, those corn fed fuckers in Iowa produced that school is known for producing defense constantly.
Speaker: Yeah, exactly. Um, But, so, yeah, I mean, um I'm curious to see what happens in the draft. I mean, if Tennessee play and keeps their number one pick, I'm really curious to see what they do. But I'm also, I've been the same boat with Cleveland.
Speaker: If they keep it, they're definitely going to draft a quarterback. You know what i mean? And it'll be Ward or Sanders. yeah I'm just saying that's not what I would do. But that's probably, if I had to guess, that's probably what they're going to do.
Speaker: So Levy's is what? and it Second season? Third season? No, it's like third or at least third or fourth probably. I was going to say, he hasn't been in league very long. Where are you trying to go, bro?
Speaker: I got to address something. he'll probably He'll probably go to another team and be really good. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, from our team they do. That's usually how it goes.
Speaker: That's usually how goes. So, sad news in the sports world all the way around, though. And everybody can appreciate this man for what he has done for the sports world.
Speaker: But Dick Vitale at his final broadcast yesterday. Oh, wow. Yep. that is That is probably the biggest news coming out of college basketball.
Speaker: That Dick Vitale has officially retired from broadcasting as of yesterday. Somebody's got him on their on their angel of death list, I think. I don't know. What does that mean?
Speaker: That's our our celebrity death list. Celebrity death list? What in the hell? Don't talk too much about it with our attorney. We might get in trouble.
Speaker: thank you yeah So maybe we should have ran this by him. before So we do a thing here and next year, watch next year we'll have to get you involved with it. We do a thing every year where well we just started it. This is our second year where we do a list of 10 celebrities that we think will die in 2025. Okay. Okay. Okay.
Speaker: And they die, we call it the angel of death, deathless. And if they die, you get ah point or whatever. But you can also make emergency picks. Like, I've made two emergency picks, and both of them have died. So you get bonus points if you make an emergency pick.
Speaker: I'll tell you who's going to get caught. call an emergency pick, though. Like, if you see somebody, he's in the hospital. Yes, yeah. jeff did Jeff did that. Jeff did that with the fucking Pope, and the son a bitch is going to Jimmy Carter his way through the year.
Speaker: um Yeah, last last last year last year i had Jimmy Carter because, ah you know, it out now we have and the Angel of Death list every year. a little Yeah, every year we're going to give out the Jimmy Carter award. yeah And it's all because I had Jimmy Carter last year.
Speaker: we should have another one for, like, people who might who we say are going to retire. Like, this is their last season in football. Yeah. you know what I mean? Even though the death one's better.
Speaker: I'm just saying. Death one's definitely better. I like that. Connor can give fuck because he picked Reba McIntyre on his death list. Oh my God.
Speaker: He's done that two years in a row just um just ah just to annoy me because he knows how much I love her. She's let um's like my old lady crush. Yeah. Why does that about me with Reba McIntyre?
Speaker: I've been in love with Reba McIntyre since I was since i was like 10 years old. I've been in love with her. ah and yeah Whoever's done her work has done a good job, that's for sure. She looks great. I told Nikki, I said, if Reba ever knocks on the door, sorry, babe.
Speaker: I got to do what I got to do, I'll just say. Right. She understands. She's like, I understand. I get it. Oh, my God.
Speaker: yeah so Yeah, so last year, like I said, last year I had i had Jimmy Carter, and he didn't die. and i was gonna like Everybody knew I was going to pick him for this year, and he literally died the day before we made our picks. Was it the day before or was it two days? It was like Thursday or Friday, and we made our picks on that Saturday, and Jimmy Carter died.
Speaker: So now we have a thing where... If you like Jeff picking the Pope, we have the Jimmy Carter award for picking a celebrity that doesn't die. That should be. Hold on. Yeah, that hold And he's in stable condition.
Speaker: Yeah, he's doing good. But I mean, now, now, now i say good yeah now, now it's like with the news that came out last night, that's why said, I got to give this a few days.
Speaker: Yeah. but Yeah. Cause we got to see. Because now now Jeff's list might might go to the wayside and his picks might be up for grabs. ah oh But, ah um yeah, it's it's it's it's ah it's ah it's a bit morbid that we do this. But, nonetheless, it's still fun.
Speaker: Like, we're going to have a championship belt made and everything, like a WWE-style championship belt made. I'm working on a logo for it. So, it's like a little competition that we do here on the network. That's fantastic.
Speaker: i i guess
Speaker: We're all going around. We probably should have conspired with our attorney before we did this. yeah please just I see that you hold no legal liability with these guys. Derek a lot of times shows up wearing a suit, so we call him our attorney.
Speaker: Why? Because what's the deal with the attorney thing? Yeah. ah well our attorney says You know, the funny thing is I probably got like about 10 more minutes anyway, and the reason being is I'm going to play golf.
Speaker: No, yeah. I'm going to take a client out golfing today. won a case last week. Yeah, no, that's what Rick and I but we before we started the show. I said, I'm going to do like an hour today, bro. I was up until 7 a.m. last night, and he was up pretty late, too.
Speaker: That's this morning. Yeah, this morning. Whatever, man, whatever. This morning, last night. i don't know I don't even know what day of the weekend is anymore. i don't know if it's Sunday. don't know if it's Friday. i don't know what's happening anymore.
Speaker: I got like – dude, I –
Speaker: I fell asleep right here in this chair out in the garage at like 7. And then I was up again at like 9.30. I'm like, ah, man. kid i need to go back to sleep.
Speaker: But there's no nap to be there. Yeah, but if I went back to sleep, I wouldn't have woke up in time to do the show. Because I would have went in the house and went upstairs and crawled into the bed and had the window open and the fan on with the rain and everything. might I would have been dead. would have been lights out. See you guys next Sunday. day
Speaker: So, but we're also going to be doing, uh, we're also going to be doing, uh, lunch here in just a few minutes. ah We're up in pencil, Turkey for the weekend. Not where would have chosen our weekend, but that's just me.
Speaker: Yeah. We came up for a Nikki son's birthday. This is 24th birthday. I took him to lunch and everything. And then Nikki hung out with some of her friends last night, but, um,
Speaker: Yeah, right. What is the draft? What is that? That's April? Beginning of April? yeah Usually like the end of April, yeah. Is it the end of April? Yeah, it's usually towards the end.
Speaker: Like 20th or later.
Speaker: i don't know when it is. I'm sure they got it out.
Speaker: It should be out.
Speaker: i don't remember.
Speaker: Oh, I'll look real fast. a't yeah satle draft day it' on castle hall April through saturdayly april twenty six yep and it is it's in green bay just says green bay packers um is it this year
Speaker: I don't see where it's at. It's in in Green Bay. Is it in Green Bay? Yep, in Green Bay, Wisconsin. and wisconin yeah Green Bay, Wisconsin. Yeah, Wally just put in chat. The 24th through the 26th. So, um the Titans have the first pick and the Chiefs have the last pick.
Speaker: Yeah, Brown's got the number two pick.
Speaker: so yup it goes It goes Tennessee, Cleveland, Giants, New England, Jacksonville, Vegas, Jets at 7, Carolina 8, Saints 9, Chicago 10, 49ers, Dallas, Miami, Indy, Atlanta, Arizona, Cincinnati at 17, Seattle, Tampa, Denver, Pittsburgh, Chargers at 22, Green Bay 23, Minnesota Houston There's your top
Speaker: Cleveland picks first in round two. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think in the second round, we're probably going to take a lineman, whether it be offensively or defensively.
Speaker: There's a lot of good ones out there this season. I think we've got another offensive lineman. Yeah, we need we need to get an offensive lineman. Our offensive line needs some some help.
Speaker: Nobody has two picks in the first round. Nobody.
Speaker: As of right now. Good change. As of right now. That's true. you That could change. Yep, it sure could.
Speaker: but What do we got going on? What can happen?
Speaker: Bro, feel like I could sleep till tomorrow. Right now. He stuck his thumb in his booty hole. Uh-oh. but that's but That's quarterbacking for you. I that's potentially what they do.
Speaker: ah Pope for the Orlando Magic. Literally, Jared Allen went up for a rebound, and when he was coming down, Pope's thumb went right up his butt.
Speaker: Well, yeah. well so They showed like four replays of it. I don't know what they were talking about, because they don't have the sound on but they showed like four replays of it. It was just like, hey, how's it going, buddy?
Speaker: i know that was legal movement yeah i didn't know that was a legal move in the NBA. I might start watching the NBA more often. It's just like, you know see how they slap a cheek, you know, to tighten them up? Same kind of thing. Yeah.
Speaker: just the game he's an at boy It's an It's an attaboy. no As long as you say good game, you're good. Yeah, good game, good game.
Speaker: Wow. They're really changing the rules up in the NBA, I see. Bad. Yeah, I don't know why they showed the replay so many times. I don't know what the discussion was. No.
Speaker: Nonetheless, about halftime, Cleveland's up forty five to forty three over Orlando. And Orlando, man, they have been bad this season, and they are somehow holding on to the eighth seed in the playoffs.
Speaker: Don't know how they're doing it, but... but the land ah You guys got anything else on your on your plate as far as sports-wise go that's tickled your fancy this week?
Speaker: Not really. Yeah, I got one thing. i probably shouldn't say it. I'm just being funny, but I'm also serious. biological men should not play in women's sports.
Speaker: You are 1000% right. Why is there even a discussion? I'm not hating on anybody. I'm not mad at anybody. I'm just saying, just make a lot of sense. And i'll that's it. That's all. I just want to say ah public service. I i agree I mean, that you had...
Speaker: Well, you had that that that UFC fighter or MMA fighter that damn near killed like two women. and years fast It'd be like me beating up two girls or beating up with a girl, period, and just being like, yeah, ah what I whooped.
Speaker: That's right. yeah like like He, she, it, whatever, literally almost killed two different competitors. and then there was somebody I can't remember who it was. I know they were speaking on it when they passed this new bill.
Speaker: I can't remember what sport it was, but this chick is like brain dead for the rest of her life because there was a... ah ah biological man competing in this in this sport and she got injured and she's basically brain dead now.
Speaker: That's wild. Definitely shouldn't be happening no matter you know what the sport is. i mean Don't get me wrong. If if there's women who want to race against men like running...
Speaker: or something like that, by means, do what you want. That's their choice to try and step up a class. That's what I'm saying. Call it co-ed. You know what I mean? Call it that. Don't Don't, you know, that's just it's just crazy. It's nonsense. We're getting illogical here. You know I mean? Like, you know, when we're kids, we think we're, you know, we want we're like cops and robbers or we're superheroes, but we're not really those things.
Speaker: And then you grow up. I am. Who the fuck are you kidding? Yeah, you can be. You can be. You can be. Yeah, you can. You can wear a cape. You do all of that, you know? Yeah, you can do whatever want to be.
Speaker: that but You can be with it. If you wanted to, you could swim against women. If you wanted to. I'm not even yeah yeah like i'll both you at a a professional athlete by no means. but yeah I think all women can beat us in a swimming race.
Speaker: yeah I could swim pretty good, but I'd still get beat by an Olympic athlete all every time. I'm going to need to grab somebody's foot.
Speaker: Yeah, there you go. That's fair. There was, was it last year or the year before whatever, there was an intergender MMA bout. And it was all for, you know, it it was a promotional thing, gimmick type thing.
Speaker: But the guy was proven. Like this dude was like half the size of this woman. This woman was a monster. Like she was a big girl. like built she she was solid and and if she towered over this dude and it was just proving a point that even if women are bigger that he could still beat them in an MMA fight and he did did he manhandled her just because we're naturally bigger and stronger at the end of the day it's an unfair advantage do you remember videos back in the day called felony fights
Speaker: no Yeah, vaguely vaguely. It was back when like you know when but it was before YouTube and you know you had to get it bootlegged, but it was literally people videotaping street fights.
Speaker: It's where Kimbo Slice got popular from. and They had one one time, this big heavyset girl against this little skinny white dude.
Speaker: And she beat him up but's just because she was so big, though. like She like fell on him. It wasn't like a good fighter. She just fell on top of him and ah and beat him up. But still.
Speaker: Yeah. Yeah, exactly. I don't know. it's it's It's a weird world that we live in where a professional athlete can be, you know, like a male professional athlete can be terrible in their sport and then all a sudden be like, I'm a lady now. And then just...
Speaker: dominating in the women's sport. and That's the thing I don't like about it especially. you know It's like, no, you're not going to swap leagues in the middle of the season. Like LeBron comes out and he's like, oh, you know what? I'm 40. I'm in my 40s now.
Speaker: I'm going to say I'm a woman and go compete in the WNBA where I can still dunk on everybody. You know what I mean? man lebron change the LeBron changes his name to LeBritney James. He's like, wait a minute. LeBrina.
Speaker: LeBrona or something. You're not fooling anybody, LeBron. He's out there putting up 75 points a game. Yeah. He just plays on through his winning championships. Yeah.
Speaker: Right. Exactly. He's got to punk on Clayton Clark. Yeah.
Speaker: Maybe we get them on the same team. you know Yeah, right. Lebrona. Lebrona.
Speaker: Anyway, every I'm going to roll out. Everybody that tries to dunk, LeBron's just like, pow, get out of here. And I'm not saying I won't be on next week. Next week, I will be in Mexico. But depending on what we got going on, I mean, I might hop on, you know what I mean, while I'm there. Might be on the beach or something.
Speaker: We might have an international broadcast. Yeah, a little international broadcast. yeah Yeah, there we go. Yeah. Yeah, ill so I'll send you the link like I normally do it. If you can make it, make it. If you can't, we'll be right.
Speaker: we'll go We'll go without our lawyer. sure y'all make no doubt without me. We like to live life on the edge. We don't always need our lawyer around. We haven't gotten in any major trouble yet.
Speaker: Yet. Yet. Yet. But no, real quick before we get out of here. Derek, you got anything on the horizon coming up that you want to you want shout out music-wise or anything?
Speaker: Yeah, I got a song that's ah going to my engineer right now. It's called Way It Go. I guess The Way Go. Maybe. I don't know. But something like that. It's a straight hip-hop song.
Speaker: little upbeat. I made the beat. Did the the whole product. but I did everything, but my engineer's going to mix it and everything. But yeah, The Way It Go. And then I got like four country songs that ah I've been sitting on them. I've just been practicing stuff.
