Speaker 1 (00:00):
Boom, Shaka laka. It's our number four, our four, and
Lamar Jackson is knocking on the audio door. So Lamar
Jackson says, every game is do or die for the Ravens.
He's back in the saddle again. How does that sound
to you? As Lamar returns for the Thursday night game
(00:20):
with Miami. What is your position? Also on Lamar Jackson
taking credit claiming that he took the ping pong table
out of the Ravens locker room, getting rid of one
of the creature comforts, and in Basketball Rocket Star Kevin
Durant says that social media trolling helps the game, helps
(00:40):
grow the game of basketball. What's your verdict on this one?
We'll get to that and more. Have a wonderful Wednesday.
It's the twenty ninth day of October. Don't forget about

Trying to crown a champion in Major League Baseball. The
(03:15):
Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays are tied two wins
a piece of Blue Jays get it done last night
and did a rant about it. It'll be up on
the podcast later today. I ranted about the game. The
gist of it is the media is running interference. Choyotani
had a bad game. He's not allowed to have a
bad game. It can't be because he's human. It has
(03:36):
to be because the excuses that were flowing out of
Dodger Stadium last night from the media elites, where Otani
was tired because he needs ten to twelve hours of
sleep and he didn't get that because the game ended late.
Oh my god, it was too hot, and there were
some other ones, but it was ridiculous. But our lead
(03:57):
this hour is from Baltimore, where the team that was
before the season build is one of the heavyweight contenders.
They've been a lightweight so far this year. Now, multi
time multi time Most valuable Player, Lamar Jackson, he's back
in the lineup, we think, although the Ravens, who know
they might be lying again, they might be lying again.
(04:19):
So the Ravens are getting ready to take on the
Miami Dolphins. And that's Lamar Jackson's old stomping grounds there
in South Florida. And he has a message to the
locker room. He has a message to the locker room.
So if you didn't see this, maybe not. What is
the message he's repeating a message from the coaching staff. Well,
let's go to the audio tape. Take a listen.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Coach pretty much touched on that talking about what that's
in the team meeting. You know, each and every game
is gonna be like a win and go home game.
You know, we started off first season ever started off
like this low. So let's do it die right.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Now, No door die he said, and he went on
to say, each and every week, do or die. So
let us discuss good jumping off point on on that question,
Lamar Jackson, this is the mantra of the Baltimore football team.
But Mar Jackson, repeating it, parroting the line here, says
every game do or die. How does that sound to you?
(05:15):
So on this one, I've got theater, Caesar's Palace, and
Confucius and we're gonna combine all those things together and
we're gonna make some blueberry cookies, is what We're gonna make.
Delicious blueberry cookies, real blueberries, wonderful. All right now, to
lead off the festivities here, Lamar, it doesn't seem like this.
(05:36):
His persona is not like this. But Lamar Jackson is
a fan of the arts. He is artistic, Lamar seriously,
and he is essentially taking the Ravens on a field
trip to La the El Capitan Theater in Los Angeles.
(05:57):
Because this is Captain obvious territory right here. It sounds great. However,
it's another one of these examples. The Ravens have been
off by a little bit.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Now.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
They did beat the Chicago Bears the last game, but
the Bears aren't that good. The Bears are average, And
so I look at the Ravens it's like it's one
of those you know, don't tell me what you're gonna do,
tell me what you have done. And what you have
done is gone two and five. That's what you've done.
That's not a rallying cry, is not. That is a
(06:30):
resume of mediocrate out in the burbs. Mediocrity berg is
where you are right there. And the Ravens have already
burned through whatever margin for error they had. Every man,
woman and child knows there is no parachute at this point. No,
if they stumble tomorrow in South Florida and lose to
(06:53):
the Dolphins, n da da na good, we'll be singing right.
One more bad Thursday night, one more bad Sunday or Monday,
and free falling outside the playoff picture. Now that said,
(07:14):
if you look at how muddled the AFC is that, No,
it's just on the Colts. The Colts have taken advantage
of it. I'm not there yet. I'm just not there
yet when it comes to that particular team. But you
look around and it's like it's messed up. If the
Ravens can get to eleven and six, they got five losses.
(07:36):
Right now, they get to eleven and six, playoff team,
playoff team, ten and seven and not so much. But
eleven and six you can get in there. Ten and
seven you're gonna have to sneak through the back door
before the security finds you and all that stuff. You
might have to jump the fence. And so that means,
if my malord math is correct, that you have one
(07:58):
more loss, one more loss the rest of the way.
That's it outside of that divine intervention. What about the division?
But yeah, the division was supposed to be good. The
division's not good. Cincinnati lost Joe Burrow. We know the
story there. Cleveland doesn't even try anymore. They're just a
dumpster fire, that's all. They are, the factory of sadness.
And then you got the Steelers who don't tackle. So yeah,
(08:21):
that's an option. But I still you're gonna have to
win ten games even bore that. Pittsburgh's always gonna win
around nine or ten games no matter what. So that's
where you are. So divine intervention, possibly Lamar Jackson saying
his thing. And at this point, it's not about words,
not about words. It's about the math and not just
(08:42):
the Mallord math. Now meanwhile, saying with the Ravens, Now,
there were some reports this look this back to Laska weeks.
There were some stories out saying, well, John Harbaugh, he's
not a nice coach. John Harbaugh got rid of the
fun stuff. He's part of the no fun police in
the locker room. So anyway, I go back to Lamar Jacksons.
(09:03):
Lamar Jackson revealed much of the dismay of many people.
He claims now he wants cred. Lamar Jackson's trying to
get some street cred. He's claiming that it was not
John Harriball, that he he was the player that had
all the fun stuff removed the ping pong tables and
(09:25):
the video games and all the crap that they have
at the country club. They're removed from the locker room.
And just to prove I'm not making this up, here
is Lamar Jackson explaining why he did it.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
And here he is, I told Kniko, I head equipment
or don Tol him to take all the games ping pong,
to turn the TVs out, And we could have took
the TVs out. It would have been on too. But
I appreciate missus, Steven putting that enough for us. Another
went on, yeah, we had to focus that. I wouldn't
say people don't take the jobs. Here it'll getting arong.
But like I didn't forel like with the Toms fact,
(09:59):
you know, you.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Might not have been able to hear that, or we
had a boom mic. The boom mic was over in
Delaware for some real I don't know why it was
in Delaware, but there is. Lamar said, we had to focus.
I would say people don't take the job. Seriously said
I wouldn't say that, he said, and he said they
would have removed the TVs if they could. Why couldn't
they remove the TVs? Just hire someone that's like a
(10:24):
handyman that could remove the TV's not that hard to
remove the TVs. Take the TV's if you don't want
the TVs, take them out, all right. So the Ravens,
here's the situation. They're two and five, they got the Dolphins.
Everyone's yapping about. This is a classic move in the
NFL team struggles. Take the toys away, Take the toys away.
The question, what is your position on Lamar Jackson claiming
(10:47):
that he was the one he was the one that decided,
the almighty, all powerful Lamar Jackson to take the ping
pong tables and the video game systems out of the
Raven locker room. What say you? All right? So here's
the deal. All you need to do was get a
(11:07):
couple guys from Home Depot and you can remove anything
you want. You could have removed the TVs. It removed
the ping pong tables and all that. And the thing
that I love about this story, my position, is how
ridiculous it is that Lamar Jackson is now being pumped
up like some modern day Vince Lombardi leader, the second
(11:27):
coming of Lombardy, that he's the one that made this decision.
Pulley's this was the word is performative. It's performative leadership
at its finest. Now, I have a conspiracy theory, and
I know I'm gonna get some crap from my guys
Sports with Coleman, who covers the Ravens, and you're not
right about that.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
I don't believe you.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
My theory is that John Harbaugh was the one that
wanted these things out, and John Harbaugh deputized Lamar Jackson
and said, hey, Lamar, why don't you be the guy
that owns this. Your our quarterback, you're our leader. We
want you to get credit for this. It'll play well
in Peoria. And Lamar's all right, why not? And so
(12:12):
it played to me. It plays out like a look
at me, I'm serious. Now, no game's allowed anymore. I'm
Lamar Jackson. So what's next? No juice boxes? Are we
going to cut out the orange slices? Seriously? Now, the
juxtaposition between Lamar now suddenly like Vince Lombardi and then
(12:33):
you have on the other side, you've got John Harbaugh,
who is the no fun police, as we said, when
people thought he was the one that had the stuff removed,
the ping pong table and all that. But now Lamar
does it, and it's like he's staying at Caesar's palace
in the presidential suite because he's a modern day Julius Caesar,
Lamar Jackson leading the ravens in the battle. And right, yeah,
(12:56):
it's the same same script. Just you flip the narrative
is all you do there, because now it's player leadership
that is all later of men. Give me a break.
I want to puke in my mouth when I when
I see this kind of stuff and taking away the
ping pong tables a symbolic move. It does not fix
(13:17):
the defense's problems tackling. It does not fix the third
down conversions. It is a classic gimmick, classic gimmick. And
it's like saying I have quit Instagram. I will now
focus on football. Okay, good luck on that cute headline.
There's no there there, there's no substances what I'm trying
(13:38):
to say. And by the way, Lamar Jackson was just
on a viral clip a couple of days back eating
what appeared to be some delicious Chinese food at a
food truck at about one in the morning. There. Now
that is what we call orange chicken leadership. Yeah, some
fanboy will say, oh the way Lamon ordered that Chinese food,
(14:02):
He just had the right cadence. He just said it
the right way and they served it perfectly with that
fried rice. Oh so good because of Lamar's leadership when
ordering the food. So this week people were complaining also
because he was dressed like the Ravens were getting ready
to go to Siberia. The weather's it's that time of
(14:25):
the year, right, it gets a little nippley temperature in
the fifties in Baltimore, and Lamar was ready to go
skiing in Utah. He had the full on ski mask
in fifty degree weather, which is generally not a good sign.
Considering the Ravens. At some point they're gonna have to
play a cold not at home. They won't have a
home game, but they're gonna have to play a cold
game somewhere down a lot. So proof you can take
(14:47):
the boy out of Florida, but you can't take the
Florida out of the boy. And the real headline, I
guess Lamar needs a dome. If he's wearing that kind
of outfit dressed for a trip to Siberia, he likely
needs a doll. Good luck on that. So there you go,
all right, last thing to pro bouncy ball, we go, Well,
are you talking about pro bouncerball? This good story. It's
(15:10):
a good story. Let me give it to you, all right,
you ready? Okay? So we know that Kevin Durant, the
Slim Reaper, is the ultimate journeyman, right, greatest journeyman of
all time, from team to team to team to team
to team to team to team to team. And he
also loves being a troll. He loves busting balls of
(15:31):
NBA fans on social media. He has no life. He
loves two things other than basketball, weed, and he loves,
absolutely loves social media. So he made some comments recently
that have come to my attention. And Kevin Durant says
he thinks there's some widespread benefit from being a troll.
(15:54):
Now I'm talking about him, not talking about the people
trolling him. I'm talking about him. Soh in a rather
long winded rant, we will not give you the whole thing.
Kevin Durant said, when you look at the big picture,
I really believe Durant said, I might be blanking on someone,
he said sometimes, but they enjoy these interactions. He said
(16:18):
that might push them to go buy some NBA tickets,
Durant claimed, or buy the league pass, or subscribe to
more games. He said. He I feel like if we
were a little more authentic with our responses. Durant said,
all of our games would grow. He said it helps
(16:39):
the relationship between the fans and the players. In my opinion,
so close quote from Kevin Durant. The money part of
that is rather obvious. So the question current Houston Rockets
star Kevin Durant says social media trolling helps the game.
It helps the game. What is the verdict on this one? So,
(17:00):
after eight minutes long Mallard deliberation, I have now determined
that Kevin Durant. Many people don't realize this, but Kevin
Durant is a modern day Socrates right in front of us. Amazing.
The man's out here. And you talk about big balls,
big balls, big balls, big balls, Bob, they're in Vegas.
This guy's out there trolling people on the Internet, and
(17:22):
that's growing the game. I love the game. Call him
Confucius in a hoodie. It's Poke the Bear buy tickets.
Poke the Bear buy tickets. Why not? And so that's
essentially what was saying. And to a degree now the
ticket thing I don't agree with, but in terms of
(17:44):
creating some juice, some buzz, yeah, I would agree. And
welcome to the New World Order. The New World Order,
it used to be started a fan club for kids.
Try to only talk about positive things. But Kevin's like,
oh no, no, no, I am again. I am Socrates. I
know more than you and and people do love that,
(18:09):
feeling like they're part of the show. It's an immersive
experience when you when you're involved in that, and you
get a response from Kevin Durant, And suddenly, what do
you do if you if you get a response from
Kevin Rant? You tell everyone at the bar, you tell
everyone at work, around the water cooler, you tell everyone,
(18:32):
like you just hit the game winning three point shot
in the final seconds of Game seven of the NBA Finals.
It is that important. Now that being said, let's let's
not crown Kevin Durant as the modern day marketing genius
because many of the people that are trolling him either
are too young to afford tickets because they don't have jobs,
(18:56):
or they're old enough to have jobs, but they're getting
EBT cards, you know what I'm saying. They're not engaging
in commerce, and the tickets are not affordable and all
that stuff. And he's acting though, Durant like every time
he slammed dunks somebody with a random fake Avatar egg account,
(19:19):
like the Chiching Chiching happens over at the NBA headquarters
there in Manhattan. That said, I do think it's refreshing.
I would agree that it is different. It's not the
norm most of the NBA, most sports in general. I
don't want to interact. They have people that handle their
social media. They don't do. It's like Magic Johnson. I
(19:40):
know he's old and he doesn't play anymore and all
that stuff, But Magic's like the ultimate old guy Twitter,
where he has somebody send out he calls a number
and then they transcribe what he wants and puts it
on social media. And it's some of the worst stuff.
It's so bad. It's good a right, but that's how
most of it is. You're not actually interacting with real people.
(20:01):
It's the people that manage the social media accounts and
all that stuff. So well, people run away from it.
Kevin Durant's like, he's like running like he's a firefighter
and he wants to not put out the firefighter fire.
He's an arsonist. He wants to extend the fire is
what he wants to do. And it's like he's holding
troll boot camp, Kevin Durant's troll boot camp. Come on,
(20:23):
you peasants, come at me, you great unwashed you hoi POLLOI.
And the peasants love it. They're like, oh, that's cool,
it's unorthodox. So he's not wrong that it does grow
the conversation. I would argue that those people don't actually
buy tickets because some of them are not real, and
it's hard to buy tickets if you're not real and
(20:45):
all that stuff. And so it's is it petty, Sure,
it's petty, but that doesn't mean it's bad. It is

(23:09):
to it. All right, we go back to it. Coming
up later this hour for your dancing and dining pleasure,
we will have password the word Game of the Stars.
People upset with the Dodgers social media complaints. Of course
it's probably bull crap. But the Dodgers at their game
(23:30):
last night, in the front row, they had a couple
of royals. Well, I guess they're former royals, Harry and Meghan.
They live in Santa Barbara.
Speaker 6 (23:41):
I remember them.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Yeah, they were sitting in the front row at the
World Series and it looked like they had Dodger hats
that they just got out of the gift shop that
you know, the kind of you can tell someone's not
really a fan, they're like a fake fan. Yeah, like
that might have been the first baseball game they ever watched.
So there they were, Harry and Meghan, they had front
row tickets, and Sandy Kofax, a Dodger icon, was behind them,
(24:08):
and people were complaining this and well, what are you doing?
Coofax is a baseball legend. He's really old and don't
that many years left. What are you doing putting him
behind Harry and Megan. However, from what I understand, those
seats that they were sitting in were the owners seats.
That was Mark Walter and the group that the Guggenheim
group that owns the Dodgers. Those were their seats. So
(24:30):
somebody decided in that group that Harry and Megan needed
to be there. How does that work to you? Just like,
who do you call up say hey, I need some
tickets to Game four of the World Series and you
end up in the front row with a couple of
brand new Dodger caps that came right out of the
team shop. So hilarious. It's like, we want to pretend
(24:53):
to be fans, so we'll show up there and have
a grand old time. I gotta tell you though, back
in the day, Harry was really good in the World Series.
He was really good for Team Britain in the World Series,
just outstanding, just great. And then there's this story. Several
people said this for the Queen of Hearts. We didn't
get to it. So there's a woman named Holly Road.
(25:16):
You know who that is? Learn or she's a middle
aged sideline reporter on television and she claims Holly Roach.
I think she works at the ESPN.
Speaker 6 (25:25):
I think can you see the girl who said that
she wants to date it an average guy.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Uh No, she's the one that claims that she dumped
smoking hot mister Switzerland for disrespecting Pat Summitt. Oh yeah,
Pat Summit's a basketball, a women's basketball coaching legend. So
this woman, Holly Rowe, claims she dumped a guy because
(25:52):
he had a bad take about Pat's Summitt.
Speaker 6 (25:56):
Bad take, bad breath. Can't keep him?
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Yeah, you know what that is, Lorena. Bull crap is
what that is. Okay, No, she's full of crap, all right,
come on, it's ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (26:06):
Goodness forbid, someone like has standards. I don't agree with him.
I can't keep that on.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Sorry, jump someone because they have a wrong opinion about
a women's basketball.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
If it gives you the ick, once you get the eck,
you can't do that.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
You want the ick, you go to Steven Manhattan. Hello,

And then I went to Blockbuster Video and we were
watching some VHS movies.

to Mike from New Hampshire. He's also a Core sponsor.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
Yeah, my Wi, we love we're in Boston. We always

thing about Salem is the police cars have a witch
on them. Their logo is like a witch, the police logo,
your local logo. It's cool.

Boom, Shaka laka. It's our number four, our four, and
Lamar Jackson is knocking on the audio door. So Lamar
Jackson says, every game is do or die for the Ravens.
He's back in the saddle again. How does that sound
to you? As Lamar returns for the Thursday night game
(00:20):
with Miami. What is your position? Also on Lamar Jackson
taking credit claiming that he took the ping pong table
out of the Ravens locker room, getting rid of one
of the creature comforts, and in Basketball Rocket Star Kevin
Durant says that social media trolling helps the game, helps
(00:40):
grow the game of basketball. What's your verdict on this one?
We'll get to that and more. Have a wonderful Wednesday.

Trying to crown a champion in Major League Baseball. The
(03:15):
Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays are tied two wins
a piece of Blue Jays get it done last night
and did a rant about it. It'll be up on
the podcast later today. I ranted about the game. The
gist of it is the media is running interference. Choyotani
had a bad game. He's not allowed to have a
bad game. It can't be because he's human. It has
(03:36):
to be because the excuses that were flowing out of
Dodger Stadium last night from the media elites, where Otani
was tired because he needs ten to twelve hours of
sleep and he didn't get that because the game ended late.
Oh my god, it was too hot, and there were
some other ones, but it was ridiculous. But our lead
(03:57):
this hour is from Baltimore, where the team that was
before the season build is one of the heavyweight contenders.
They've been a lightweight so far this year. Now, multi
time multi time Most valuable Player, Lamar Jackson, he's back
in the lineup, we think, although the Ravens, who know
they might be lying again, they might be lying again.
(04:19):
So the Ravens are getting ready to take on the
Miami Dolphins. And that's Lamar Jackson's old stomping grounds there
in South Florida. And he has a message to the
locker room. He has a message to the locker room.
So if you didn't see this, maybe not. What is
the message he's repeating a message from the coaching staff. Well,
let's go to the audio tape. Take a listen.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Coach pretty much touched on that talking about what that's
in the team meeting. You know, each and every game
is gonna be like a win and go home game.
You know, we started off first season ever started off
like this low. So let's do it die right.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Now, No door die he said, and he went on
to say, each and every week, do or die. So
let us discuss good jumping off point on on that question,
Lamar Jackson, this is the mantra of the Baltimore football team.
But Mar Jackson, repeating it, parroting the line here, says
every game do or die. How does that sound to you?
(05:15):
So on this one, I've got theater, Caesar's Palace, and
Confucius and we're gonna combine all those things together and
we're gonna make some blueberry cookies, is what We're gonna make.
Delicious blueberry cookies, real blueberries, wonderful. All right now, to
lead off the festivities here, Lamar, it doesn't seem like this.
(05:36):
His persona is not like this. But Lamar Jackson is
a fan of the arts. He is artistic, Lamar seriously,
and he is essentially taking the Ravens on a field
trip to La the El Capitan Theater in Los Angeles.
(05:57):
Because this is Captain obvious territory right here. It sounds great. However,
it's another one of these examples. The Ravens have been
off by a little bit.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Now.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
They did beat the Chicago Bears the last game, but
the Bears aren't that good. The Bears are average, And
so I look at the Ravens it's like it's one
of those you know, don't tell me what you're gonna do,
tell me what you have done. And what you have
done is gone two and five. That's what you've done.
That's not a rallying cry, is not. That is a
(06:30):
resume of mediocrate out in the burbs. Mediocrity berg is
where you are right there. And the Ravens have already
burned through whatever margin for error they had. Every man,
woman and child knows there is no parachute at this point. No,
if they stumble tomorrow in South Florida and lose to
(06:53):
the Dolphins, n da da na good, we'll be singing right.
One more bad Thursday night, one more bad Sunday or Monday,
and free falling outside the playoff picture. Now that said,
(07:14):
if you look at how muddled the AFC is that, No,
it's just on the Colts. The Colts have taken advantage
of it. I'm not there yet. I'm just not there
yet when it comes to that particular team. But you
look around and it's like it's messed up. If the
Ravens can get to eleven and six, they got five losses.
(07:36):
Right now, they get to eleven and six, playoff team,
playoff team, ten and seven and not so much. But
eleven and six you can get in there. Ten and
seven you're gonna have to sneak through the back door
before the security finds you and all that stuff. You
might have to jump the fence. And so that means,
if my malord math is correct, that you have one
(07:58):
more loss, one more loss the rest of the way.
That's it outside of that divine intervention. What about the division?
But yeah, the division was supposed to be good. The
division's not good. Cincinnati lost Joe Burrow. We know the
story there. Cleveland doesn't even try anymore. They're just a
dumpster fire, that's all. They are, the factory of sadness.
And then you got the Steelers who don't tackle. So yeah,
(08:21):
that's an option. But I still you're gonna have to
win ten games even bore that. Pittsburgh's always gonna win
around nine or ten games no matter what. So that's
where you are. So divine intervention, possibly Lamar Jackson saying
his thing. And at this point, it's not about words,
not about words. It's about the math and not just
(08:42):
the Mallord math. Now meanwhile, saying with the Ravens, Now,
there were some reports this look this back to Laska weeks.
There were some stories out saying, well, John Harbaugh, he's
not a nice coach. John Harbaugh got rid of the
fun stuff. He's part of the no fun police in
the locker room. So anyway, I go back to Lamar Jacksons.
(09:03):
Lamar Jackson revealed much of the dismay of many people.
He claims now he wants cred. Lamar Jackson's trying to
get some street cred. He's claiming that it was not
John Harriball, that he he was the player that had
all the fun stuff removed the ping pong tables and
(09:25):
the video games and all the crap that they have
at the country club. They're removed from the locker room.
And just to prove I'm not making this up, here
is Lamar Jackson explaining why he did it.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
And here he is, I told Kniko, I head equipment
or don Tol him to take all the games ping pong,
to turn the TVs out, And we could have took
the TVs out. It would have been on too. But
I appreciate missus, Steven putting that enough for us. Another
went on, yeah, we had to focus that. I wouldn't
say people don't take the jobs. Here it'll getting arong.
But like I didn't forel like with the Toms fact,
(09:59):
you know, you.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Might not have been able to hear that, or we
had a boom mic. The boom mic was over in
Delaware for some real I don't know why it was
in Delaware, but there is. Lamar said, we had to focus.
I would say people don't take the job. Seriously said
I wouldn't say that, he said, and he said they
would have removed the TVs if they could. Why couldn't
they remove the TVs? Just hire someone that's like a
(10:24):
handyman that could remove the TV's not that hard to
remove the TVs. Take the TV's if you don't want
the TVs, take them out, all right. So the Ravens,
here's the situation. They're two and five, they got the Dolphins.
Everyone's yapping about. This is a classic move in the
NFL team struggles. Take the toys away, Take the toys away.
The question, what is your position on Lamar Jackson claiming
(10:47):
that he was the one he was the one that decided,
the almighty, all powerful Lamar Jackson to take the ping
pong tables and the video game systems out of the
Raven locker room. What say you? All right? So here's
the deal. All you need to do was get a
(11:07):
couple guys from Home Depot and you can remove anything
you want. You could have removed the TVs. It removed
the ping pong tables and all that. And the thing
that I love about this story, my position, is how
ridiculous it is that Lamar Jackson is now being pumped
up like some modern day Vince Lombardi leader, the second
(11:27):
coming of Lombardy, that he's the one that made this decision.
Pulley's this was the word is performative. It's performative leadership
at its finest. Now, I have a conspiracy theory, and
I know I'm gonna get some crap from my guys
Sports with Coleman, who covers the Ravens, and you're not
right about that.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
I don't believe you.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
My theory is that John Harbaugh was the one that
wanted these things out, and John Harbaugh deputized Lamar Jackson
and said, hey, Lamar, why don't you be the guy
that owns this. Your our quarterback, you're our leader. We
want you to get credit for this. It'll play well
in Peoria. And Lamar's all right, why not? And so
(12:12):
it played to me. It plays out like a look
at me, I'm serious. Now, no game's allowed anymore. I'm
Lamar Jackson. So what's next? No juice boxes? Are we
going to cut out the orange slices? Seriously? Now, the
juxtaposition between Lamar now suddenly like Vince Lombardi and then
(12:33):
you have on the other side, you've got John Harbaugh,
who is the no fun police, as we said, when
people thought he was the one that had the stuff removed,
the ping pong table and all that. But now Lamar
does it, and it's like he's staying at Caesar's palace
in the presidential suite because he's a modern day Julius Caesar,
Lamar Jackson leading the ravens in the battle. And right, yeah,
(12:56):
it's the same same script. Just you flip the narrative
is all you do there, because now it's player leadership
that is all later of men. Give me a break.
I want to puke in my mouth when I when
I see this kind of stuff and taking away the
ping pong tables a symbolic move. It does not fix
(13:17):
the defense's problems tackling. It does not fix the third
down conversions. It is a classic gimmick, classic gimmick. And
it's like saying I have quit Instagram. I will now
focus on football. Okay, good luck on that cute headline.
There's no there there, there's no substances what I'm trying
(13:38):
to say. And by the way, Lamar Jackson was just
on a viral clip a couple of days back eating
what appeared to be some delicious Chinese food at a
food truck at about one in the morning. There. Now
that is what we call orange chicken leadership. Yeah, some
fanboy will say, oh the way Lamon ordered that Chinese food,
(14:02):
He just had the right cadence. He just said it
the right way and they served it perfectly with that
fried rice. Oh so good because of Lamar's leadership when
ordering the food. So this week people were complaining also
because he was dressed like the Ravens were getting ready
to go to Siberia. The weather's it's that time of
(14:25):
the year, right, it gets a little nippley temperature in
the fifties in Baltimore, and Lamar was ready to go
skiing in Utah. He had the full on ski mask
in fifty degree weather, which is generally not a good sign.
Considering the Ravens. At some point they're gonna have to
play a cold not at home. They won't have a
home game, but they're gonna have to play a cold
game somewhere down a lot. So proof you can take
(14:47):
the boy out of Florida, but you can't take the
Florida out of the boy. And the real headline, I
guess Lamar needs a dome. If he's wearing that kind
of outfit dressed for a trip to Siberia, he likely
needs a doll. Good luck on that. So there you go,
all right, last thing to pro bouncy ball, we go, Well,
are you talking about pro bouncerball? This good story. It's
(15:10):
a good story. Let me give it to you, all right,
you ready? Okay? So we know that Kevin Durant, the
Slim Reaper, is the ultimate journeyman, right, greatest journeyman of
all time, from team to team to team to team
to team to team to team to team. And he
also loves being a troll. He loves busting balls of
(15:31):
NBA fans on social media. He has no life. He
loves two things other than basketball, weed, and he loves,
absolutely loves social media. So he made some comments recently
that have come to my attention. And Kevin Durant says
he thinks there's some widespread benefit from being a troll.
(15:54):
Now I'm talking about him, not talking about the people
trolling him. I'm talking about him. Soh in a rather
long winded rant, we will not give you the whole thing.
Kevin Durant said, when you look at the big picture,
I really believe Durant said, I might be blanking on someone,
he said sometimes, but they enjoy these interactions. He said
(16:18):
that might push them to go buy some NBA tickets,
Durant claimed, or buy the league pass, or subscribe to
more games. He said. He I feel like if we
were a little more authentic with our responses. Durant said,
all of our games would grow. He said it helps
(16:39):
the relationship between the fans and the players. In my opinion,
so close quote from Kevin Durant. The money part of
that is rather obvious. So the question current Houston Rockets
star Kevin Durant says social media trolling helps the game.
It helps the game. What is the verdict on this one? So,
(17:00):
after eight minutes long Mallard deliberation, I have now determined
that Kevin Durant. Many people don't realize this, but Kevin
Durant is a modern day Socrates right in front of us. Amazing.
The man's out here. And you talk about big balls,
big balls, big balls, big balls, Bob, they're in Vegas.
This guy's out there trolling people on the Internet, and
(17:22):
that's growing the game. I love the game. Call him
Confucius in a hoodie. It's Poke the Bear buy tickets.
Poke the Bear buy tickets. Why not? And so that's
essentially what was saying. And to a degree now the
ticket thing I don't agree with, but in terms of
(17:44):
creating some juice, some buzz, yeah, I would agree. And
welcome to the New World Order. The New World Order,
it used to be started a fan club for kids.
Try to only talk about positive things. But Kevin's like,
oh no, no, no, I am again. I am Socrates. I
know more than you and and people do love that,
(18:09):
feeling like they're part of the show. It's an immersive
experience when you when you're involved in that, and you
get a response from Kevin Durant, And suddenly, what do
you do if you if you get a response from
Kevin Rant? You tell everyone at the bar, you tell
everyone at work, around the water cooler, you tell everyone,
(18:32):
like you just hit the game winning three point shot
in the final seconds of Game seven of the NBA Finals.
It is that important. Now that being said, let's let's
not crown Kevin Durant as the modern day marketing genius
because many of the people that are trolling him either
are too young to afford tickets because they don't have jobs,
(18:56):
or they're old enough to have jobs, but they're getting
EBT cards, you know what I'm saying. They're not engaging
in commerce, and the tickets are not affordable and all
that stuff. And he's acting though, Durant like every time
he slammed dunks somebody with a random fake Avatar egg account,
(19:19):
like the Chiching Chiching happens over at the NBA headquarters
there in Manhattan. That said, I do think it's refreshing.
I would agree that it is different. It's not the
norm most of the NBA, most sports in general. I
don't want to interact. They have people that handle their
social media. They don't do. It's like Magic Johnson. I
(19:40):
know he's old and he doesn't play anymore and all
that stuff, But Magic's like the ultimate old guy Twitter,
where he has somebody send out he calls a number
and then they transcribe what he wants and puts it
on social media. And it's some of the worst stuff.
It's so bad. It's good a right, but that's how
most of it is. You're not actually interacting with real people.
(20:01):
It's the people that manage the social media accounts and
all that stuff. So well, people run away from it.
Kevin Durant's like, he's like running like he's a firefighter
and he wants to not put out the firefighter fire.
He's an arsonist. He wants to extend the fire is
what he wants to do. And it's like he's holding
troll boot camp, Kevin Durant's troll boot camp. Come on,
(20:23):
you peasants, come at me, you great unwashed you hoi POLLOI.
And the peasants love it. They're like, oh, that's cool,
it's unorthodox. So he's not wrong that it does grow
the conversation. I would argue that those people don't actually
buy tickets because some of them are not real, and
it's hard to buy tickets if you're not real and
(20:45):
all that stuff. And so it's is it petty, Sure,
it's petty, but that doesn't mean it's bad. It is

(23:09):
to it. All right, we go back to it. Coming
up later this hour for your dancing and dining pleasure,
we will have password the word Game of the Stars.
People upset with the Dodgers social media complaints. Of course
it's probably bull crap. But the Dodgers at their game
(23:30):
last night, in the front row, they had a couple
of royals. Well, I guess they're former royals, Harry and Meghan.
They live in Santa Barbara.
Speaker 6 (23:41):
I remember them.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Yeah, they were sitting in the front row at the
World Series and it looked like they had Dodger hats
that they just got out of the gift shop that
you know, the kind of you can tell someone's not
really a fan, they're like a fake fan. Yeah, like
that might have been the first baseball game they ever watched.
So there they were, Harry and Meghan, they had front
row tickets, and Sandy Kofax, a Dodger icon, was behind them,
(24:08):
and people were complaining this and well, what are you doing?
Coofax is a baseball legend. He's really old and don't
that many years left. What are you doing putting him
behind Harry and Megan. However, from what I understand, those
seats that they were sitting in were the owners seats.
That was Mark Walter and the group that the Guggenheim
group that owns the Dodgers. Those were their seats. So
(24:30):
somebody decided in that group that Harry and Megan needed
to be there. How does that work to you? Just like,
who do you call up say hey, I need some
tickets to Game four of the World Series and you
end up in the front row with a couple of
brand new Dodger caps that came right out of the
team shop. So hilarious. It's like, we want to pretend
(24:53):
to be fans, so we'll show up there and have
a grand old time. I gotta tell you though, back
in the day, Harry was really good in the World Series.
He was really good for Team Britain in the World Series,
just outstanding, just great. And then there's this story. Several
people said this for the Queen of Hearts. We didn't
get to it. So there's a woman named Holly Road.
(25:16):
You know who that is? Learn or she's a middle
aged sideline reporter on television and she claims Holly Roach.
I think she works at the ESPN.
Speaker 6 (25:25):
I think can you see the girl who said that
she wants to date it an average guy.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Uh No, she's the one that claims that she dumped
smoking hot mister Switzerland for disrespecting Pat Summitt. Oh yeah,
Pat Summit's a basketball, a women's basketball coaching legend. So
this woman, Holly Rowe, claims she dumped a guy because
(25:52):
he had a bad take about Pat's Summitt.
Speaker 6 (25:56):
Bad take, bad breath. Can't keep him?
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Yeah, you know what that is, Lorena. Bull crap is
what that is. Okay, No, she's full of crap, all right,
come on, it's ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (26:06):
Goodness forbid, someone like has standards. I don't agree with him.
I can't keep that on.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Sorry, jump someone because they have a wrong opinion about
a women's basketball.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
If it gives you the ick, once you get the eck,
you can't do that.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
Well, yeah, that's the famous that's the famous story. That's
where the Salem witch trial.
Speaker 6 (31:51):
Yeah, but I think that's a little you know what
I mean, they were killing them back in the day,
and now they're using them as well. No, they mean
for their city.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
Well yeah, but if you were not a witch, you
would you would float right, And it isn't that?
Speaker 8 (32:07):
