do my best to be super focused, but y'all do
know that my baby play for Penn State, and Penn
State is playing Ohio State, and well they're in the

Speaker 6 (02:22):
All right, all right, all right, listen up during his
baseball postseason. As you guys notice the product, the brand
Strauss has been making history. It's the first brand ever

forty eight. Strauss makes work. We're built to perform smart
(02:42):
pocket design, real comfort and durability. You can trust it.
From grit to glory. Gear up today at Strauss dot com.
That's Strauss s t r a U s S dot
com must talking talk to some MLB uh right now
(03:03):
and we got our man cuffs the legend and cuffs
and Strauss, you know what I mean, like two major
brands in the sporting industry. What's happening, coffs? How you feeling?
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Man?
Speaker 6 (03:13):
How's your Saturday? What's going on with you?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
I mean right now, man, to keep it real on
the ocean front right now, Lebar. I'm trying to be
like you, man with the spectacle of views. I saw you.
I saw you on Netflix, I saw you out here.
You know what I'm saying. TJ like I've seen this.
He's trying to come on the air and I'll see
you man. So I'm just trying to be like Lebar Harrington.
(03:37):
You know, I got some ocera front views. Me and
my lady. First off, TJ man, I miss you, my brother.
It's been a while. It's been a while. TJ.
Speaker 8 (03:46):
You La Laker Campadre Hey, the feelings and mutual and
we just know Cuffs is your favorite network ghost writer.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
We just got to keep letting y'all.
Speaker 6 (03:59):
Know that that is the truth. It should be pointed out.
A lot of the things, the isms you hear are
Cuff isms that are going out there. And speaking of
things going on out there, the World Series is continuing
to go on out there. Penn State just scored. By
the way, Nick Singleton boom run over the left side.
(04:20):
Let's go. We are Penn State baby ten seven ten seven. Okay,
so yeah, World Series Game seven will be coming up
later on today five pm West Coast time, but eight
pm if you're on the East coast. Fellas, last night
was a pretty exciting end to the game. I mean, listen,
(04:41):
the Dodgers did what they needed to do after having
such a rough time of the prior game. They're able
to pull neck and neck pool tight out of three
to three series series deal. And it was a traumatic
fashion right, you're dramatic, I should say fashion they were
able to get a catch a double play to end
(05:02):
the game, but it looked as though possibly the way
it was kind of unfolding that the Blue Jays could
have possibly either tied it or maybe even got the
game win right there at the end of the game.
You know, what was y'all's take on on the World Series?
What's your take on tonight? I think that the Blue
(05:23):
Jays lost their opportunity to win it last night, but
I could be wrong because it looks as though they
have come back and they've been playing very, very competitively
obviously for them to end up in the Game seven.
What's y'all's take on it?
Speaker 4 (05:38):
But here, I'll say, no, no, no, no, no, you
got to Cutch go, you got it.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
I just think all the pressure is on the Dodgers
because you went out and spent like a bazillion dollars
on showing you post all these players Fernandez mount seat,
like you post all the best pictures from every team.
All the pressure is gonna be on the Dodgers to
pull this off because I feel like this would be
(06:05):
a major collapse because they were the heavy favorites, like
they have the best baseball player of all time is
show y'all tony like he we've never seen anything like this.
So it's like, if you don't get this, this repeat
and kill this deal. I feel like it's a major
letdown for the Dodgers fans. But I kind of feel
like the Blue Jays have been like a gritty team
(06:27):
all year. They're back against the wall and all these
different series they've been in so far, so I wouldn't
be totally surprised, like if toronald has pulls this off,
but I will be rooting for the Dodgers. Shout out
the oar Versaser, the og, Kirk Gibson, those guys. I
will be rooting for the Dodgers, though, But I think
I think we can get a barn Burner. I just
hope we don't go eighteen innings again. I can't do
(06:49):
another eighteen in any game that was long.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
You got lessen Man, the Dodgers to be three three,
series tied three three, and we haven't played well man.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
We have not hit the ball well at all.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
Like Mookie comes up to out, uh, he's been struggling,
gets a base hit, drives in two runs and that
basically was the game winner for yesterday, and so the
Blue Jays have really outplayed the Dodgers in this series
from a hitting and a pitching perspective. The Dodgers are
(07:26):
just finding ways. We just find a ways to win.
And now, oh Tony gonna start tonight Game seven.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
We find ways.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Yeah, yeah, we find the ways. You know, that's my team.
So you know, are you a Dodgers fan?
Speaker 6 (07:38):
To cuffs like, do y'all share that as well? Do
y'all share the Dodgers as well? You and DJ I've been.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
A Dogger fan sit and came around to base.
Speaker 6 (07:52):
My god, I was joking, but this is for real,
Like you can't. You can't write this script up any better.
So you are Dodgers fan, Well.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
I've been a Jackie Robinson Brooklyn Dodgers man. Man, that's
the best. The Dodgers hat, the Dodgers hat, that's the
best hat. That's the most beautiful hat there is.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
Sport is legendary. He knows that he's my son. Had
that on last night.
Speaker 6 (08:23):
I mean think the initials that are on the hat. Now, yeah,
you know with that l A logo. Come on now,
I've been rocking with that for a long time.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Now you did it. But to the game.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
The the Blue Jays have played a really good series.
They've they've gotten great pitching, They've gotten tiny hits the dot.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
We're just struggling at the plate.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
That that's the biggest thing, struggling at the plate, because
if you get just one hit when it's needed, a
timey hit, it blows the game open.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
And you got to give credit to their pitch that
we have yet to do that.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
The more of the story, DJ, is it gonna be
Drake tonight that celebrates or Kendrick Lamar that celebrate.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
I'm going they not like us. Come on, man, were
about to put Toronto in their place? Man, and and
and I'll say this, I'm a Drake fan, but I'm
going with the Dodgers on this one. I liked Drake's
Drake music. I didn't really listen to Kendrick prior to
this last album. This last album at Kendrick Ay. Now
(09:32):
I'm banging at a secret.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
Can I you a secret to you? Cuffs? Let me
expose a secret to you. TJ is dark skin bro like,
like you know, don't look at his appearents and think
that he's running on the ovo side with you and
with Drake. So I'm just this might be where the uh,
you know, where y'all hit a crossroad, you know, a
fork in the road, so to speak, because TJ is
one of us, like he's not, he's not one of
(09:56):
you cuffs. Like I don't know if you you didn't
know that or not. Just had to make sure I
let you know that in this conversation that he's not
going to side with Ovio, He's not going to side
with Drake's. He's gonna stay with Kendrick Lamar and la Dodgers,
you know what I mean. I'm just I'm just making
sure I'm clear on that. But go ahead, TJ.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
You know I'm going. I'm going with the Dodgers. But
I do expect the Cardinals. I mean the Cardinals, the
Blue Jays, the way that they've played. Man like the pitching,
if your savage pitches. I mean, he just literally dominated
us in Game five, and so that that right there
makes you makes you a bit nervous.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
But I'm rolling with us.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Oh, Tony can't keep playing like this, Freddy can't keep
hitting like this.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Taoskar Muncie.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
I mean, it's no way we can just keep hitting
this way like it's just been so bad as hitters.
Eventually we're gonna have to go because I'm figuring, Okay, oh,
Tony gonna give us three to four innings. Glassgow Glass,
now he gonna bring us home. So Tany and Tyler Glass,
now they're gonna win this game for us. They're gonna
be lights out on the mound to night.
Speaker 6 (11:08):
Okay, go ahead, God.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Who is gonna be the guy CDJ that has that
legendary moment that they're gonna play on highlights, just like
the Kurt Gibson moment. I feel like the guy for
me it always comes up clutch his whole entire baseball career.
It's Freddy Freeman.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
Freddy Freeman is dude, he just got ice water in
his veins. Man, Freddie heah, Freddie Freeman, Man, he the
guy down one. You want to have the free throw
line shooting two free throws because you just feel very.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Confident they're not gonna pick.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
It's not gonna be O Tony because if guys get
on base, they're gonna walk on Tony.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
They're not gonna give O Tany a chance to beat him.
And that's that's smart.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
Manager, that's crazy. I don't like that you gotta you
gotta play, play the win. You want to beat the chat.
Beat the chat, like throw throwing the ball.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
Throw that.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
Some will say that is playing the wind. You pitched
on playing to lose. That's what they will say. You
ain't lying. I can't argue that point at all. All right,
listen up, y'all. We're gonna take a quick break. On
the other side of the break.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
We're gonna transition, We're gonna put some air in the ball,
We're gonna bounce it, we're gonna shoot it, all those
different things. We're gonna talk basketball, not baseball, on the
other side of this break. All right, you're listening to

But yeah, but I just I can't wait. But we're
(17:04):
ignoring the we're bearing the lead here, cuffs, the lead
is and.
Speaker 6 (17:08):
Look you got and getting out of answer, you get.
Speaker 5 (17:11):
Answer Dodgers, Dodgers.
Speaker 6 (17:13):
Okay, there we go, all right, there we go.
Speaker 5 (17:14):
All right, all right, but like I said, we're ignoring
the real. Well, Cuffs, you've got ocean front views, you've
got your lady, and yet here you are talking to
these knuckleheads.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Dude.
Speaker 5 (17:29):
You know, I love you, but come on, man, priority is.
Speaker 6 (17:33):
Burying the lead. You you make a valid point there.
Speaker 5 (17:36):
Yeah, I'm just I'm just saying, I'm just.
Speaker 6 (17:40):
Cuffs. The legend with his lady is on ocean front property.
Speaker 5 (17:43):
And yet he's talking to us right now. I saw that,
I saw that sunrise. Anyway, we're also burying another lead
and oh wow, that was an accident.
Speaker 6 (17:58):
So horribly and I'll know you, but no, you know whatever.
Speaker 5 (18:03):
I could have tied into another of your live reads
around here. Anyway, the other elephant of the room. We
go to thee, we go to we go to the horseshoe.
Number one Ohio State hosting Penn State. Ohio State took
a seven to nothing lead on a fourteen yard touchdown
pass from Julian sand to Jeremiah Smith and a field
goal to go up ten to nothing. But then Penn
(18:24):
State came back. Here was Steve Jones on w LGJ under.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Center, Crocabier pitches of the Ed Singleton gets to the corner.
Speaker 6 (18:33):
He's there, touchdown. Penn State.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
Don't let me lie.
Speaker 6 (18:36):
It's kept themselves right back at it with a gutsy
drive and it's.
Speaker 5 (18:40):
Now a one score game.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
There you have it, sir, we could toast.
Speaker 6 (18:45):
That one up.
Speaker 5 (18:47):
However, unfortunately for LeVar and Nittany lyon Nation Yeah, Ohio
State came back san a forty five yard touchdown pass
to Carnell Titsa with one forty eight left play in
the second quarter. Ohio State has a seven to seven
lead over Penn State, Number twenty Texas all over ninth
rank Vanderbilt Texas on top twenty four to three. Late
(19:09):
in the second quarter. Longhorn quarterback Arch manning eleven of
fourteen for one to eighty five two touchdown passes, including
a seventy five yarder to Ryan Wingo on the first
snap of the game. Number ten Miami a seven to
seven tie with SMU two fifty six left in the
second quarter, and number twenty two Houston has come back
to ty West Virginia at twenty one with three minutes
(19:31):
left to play in the second quarter. NFL Arizona Cardinals
head coach Jonathan Gannon announced that Jacoby Brissett will start
a quarterback for Monday Night football against the Cowboys, but
the Kyler Murray, who's recovering from a spring foot, could
have a role during the course of.
Speaker 6 (19:44):
The get the update in the Penn State game though,
I love get the get the update and give the
give the more update.
Speaker 5 (19:52):
The cal Penn State apparently recovered a fumble in Ohio
State territory with one forty eight left in the second quarter.
That was the call in the field. However, right now
they are in an official replay review, so stay tuned, LeVar,
it's probably.
Speaker 6 (20:10):
It's possible we don't get it. You know, we could
toast that one. We have one play a game where
it's like this, it's a determining, it's like a big
play for our team, and it never goes our way.
The call never goes our way.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Anyways, that's a clear fumble.
Speaker 6 (20:27):
It looks like it is. But you know that's a
baby too. Nineteen. Yeah, it's a baby. That's that's a freshman, right,
true freshmen fellas. But we're going to transition from the
oblong ball to to the UH to the round ball
and just curious cuffs. Like the season is underway. Things
are moving. They're starting to kind of show who can play,
(20:51):
who can't play. What teams to look at, uh, maybe
what teams you're still waiting on. What what's your what's
your top storylines right now, where we're at so far
in the NBA season.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
I got to know, everybody wants to talk about the Lakers,
like the big market teams, but can we get some
love to the Baby Chicago Bulls. Like the Baby Chicago
Bulls without Kobe White. By the way, these are Josh
Giddy's Bulls. They're five and zero for the first time
since nineteen ninety six. And I would just tell the fans,
(21:25):
real NBA fans, watch these bulls. You got the young
kids sixteen Mantas watched Mantas Boselli's you got him, you
got Ao de Mussol, you got you got some talent
on this Bulls team. I know, I know Kobe White's
not in the fold now, but they gave they gave
the New York Knicks that worked last night, and the
Knicks were the Knicks were the favorite. You know, Carl
(21:46):
Anthony Towns, I'm hearing Rumlin that he might not be
happy with the Knick situation right now, but I'll say,
let's getting that's I had to the Baby Chicago Bulls.
And don't let me forget the Portland trail Blazers. You know,
we saw the situation with Chauncey Billups, you know, the
illegal poker stuff or whatever. Theago splitter has stepped in
(22:06):
and the absence of Chauncey Billups and you know this
this some young players they have like they got they
got Denny Evada, they got hit the young kid that
came over from the Wizards, Drew Holliday. You know a
lot of people thought he would be just a trade chip,
but he's shown veteran leadership. You got Dang Litard on
the bench. You know, he's dressed and in Blentciaga. He's
(22:26):
being more like he can't play. He can't play this
year because it's at l so Achilles or hl SO.
He's really being like the mentor to these guys. But
the kid I don't really like for Portland is Shading Sharp.
You got Shading Shark. He's having a leap this year.
But those are the teams that's like the average fan
are not really watching on the big screen every night.
But let's give some love to the Bulls and the Blazers.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
I'll say, okay, Heyle, thank you. This are you surprised
at how well dj Edgecombe has played early in the
season in its success the Sixers without Embiid kind of
leading away man.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Like I've been saying for so long that the Sixers
need to build around Tyre's Maxi because Embiid he's never
gonna stay healthy.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
You know.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
I called him the camera roon crowd baby, like he's
always playing. He doesn't work hard. There's been so many
reports about this guy being the lazy guy. I feel
like he just needs to get out of the picture
in Philly. They need to build around Maxi and vj Edgecombe, who,
by the way, I saw it on poly Market today,
he has surpassed Cooper Flag for the favorite to win
(23:34):
Rookie of the Year. Who would have DJ Edgcomb would
be sitting here as a favorite for Rookie of the
Year right now, DJ, when everybody and their mama was
so focused on Cooper Flag. But I just feel like
v Ja ed Coomb. He had some d Wade like
you go back and watch that Marquette d Wade, the
young Miami Heat d Wade. I think I said it
on the previous show, like Victor Oazipo when he was younger,
(23:57):
And I'm seeing like the Jimmy Butler like that Tona
to see how Jimmy Butler played with that grit and
that grime. I'm seeing a lot of that in VJ. Edgecomb.
But the Sixers don't sleep on the Sixers because Bonu
the kid Boner to back up time for U C.
L A. Man Boner is hooping.
Speaker 6 (24:14):
I like, these Sixers say, what what's his name?
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Bona?
Speaker 6 (24:20):
Yeah? Okay, while you while you out there, while you
out there and that front laying all right, my god? Anyway,
uh so, uh, let's talk about the sun. Let's talk
about the new slim Luca like like he's he's on
a tear right now. Uh, Kenny maintained the weight and
Kenny maintained the game. That the level of play.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
Age.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Man, I was watching the Lakers last night and I'm
looking at low carb Lucas like he's absolutely destroying antying
with John Morant and the Grizzlies last night. And I'm
also walking Austin Reeves. The last couple of games. We
see him right now, he's averaging close to thirty two
points a game, like five rebounds, nasists. He's looking like
pistol peak right now. He's looking like the white Allen Iverson.
(25:08):
You see him out there to TJ with the headband,
like Austin Reves is really him now? Right? So I'm
seeing this, I'm seeing the vision TJ. I'm seeing like
the white backcourt with Luca and Austin Reason, I'm seeing
the vision in LA. I'm seeing them on every billboard.
But I'm also asking myself when I'm watching this offensive
(25:30):
explosion from these two guys to start the first five
or six games here, and the Lakers are the top
three seed right now, sitting there for it too. The
question I have TJ and LeVar is is it time
to trade Lebron James? Man? Does he even you?
Speaker 6 (25:46):
But you all know the answer to that. That's the
answer to that hasn't changed for for some time now,
That's what I would say. But again he's gonna I mean,
how how much longer is he going to hold on
for to make sure everything works out with Bronnie like
which I think the minute Lebron James is out of there,
what does that mean for for Bronnie James? You know
(26:07):
what I mean? That's that to me is the great
dilemma here is if there's no Bronnie James, don't I
throw this one y'all's way, don't y'all think. Don't y'all
think that Lebron James wants to go? And don't you
think that the Lakers are able to move on if
Bronnie James isn't on the roster. Yeah, no answer that one.
(26:30):
Don't nobody want to answer that. Huh is Leron still
a Laker?
Speaker 3 (26:36):
James?
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Answer this? I'll answer this this. We know we're gonna
do any and everything for our children. Lebron is no
different than anybody else that's you want the best for
your kids. I'll say this what you said, LeVar, I
do slightly agree with you, because Lebron is going to
want to stay with the Lakers until Bronnie has established
(26:59):
himself and that's a full fledged NBA player. Because correct
if Lebron is traded now, and I believe that JJ
Reddick got a job because of Lebron's pushing him, So look,
JJ j No, JJ Redick is not going to do
Bronnie and Lebron that way.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
He won't do that.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
But at a certain point in time, it's only so
much you can do if your JJ Reddick and I
believe Bronni has improved, But if Lebron is gone, the
likelihood of Brianni being gone right after him, I would
say that has to be strong.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
So you saking TJ that if they do move Lebron James,
it definitely has to be a father and son combo
package deal, right they have.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
To go Yeah two for one, Yeah, two for one,
Because I just don't know.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
The question I have TJ is I absolutely love the
fit of Luka Doncics and often reads like they can
play off each other so well. And I know Lebron
can adapt his game and be more of a like,
you know, a point forward and play out of the post.
And if you was his passing ability, it's IQ. Let me.
Let's not get it confused. Now. Guys like Lebron was
(28:15):
top ten in the world last season. Last last year,
he was All NBA second Team last season, so he
still had a lot he had a lot of gas
left in the tank. He's still a good fit on
any team. I just don't know if he's a fit
on these Lakers. So I think it could get real spicy,
real soon. And I will say a team to look
(28:36):
out for not just this season with Lebron, but if
he decides to have one last season, could you see
Lebron going down to San Antonio.
Speaker 6 (28:46):
I knew you were gonna say this first, you're gonna
say it.
Speaker 4 (28:51):
You're gonna say a Cutts if that happened, Who they
send us back?
Speaker 3 (28:54):
Who they send us?
Speaker 2 (28:56):
I'm saying maybe. I'm saying maybe in the summer where he's.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
A free man, that would be that'd be crazy.
Speaker 6 (29:03):
And then you could just take Brownie James right along
with you. Hey, lit'sten a matter of fact, you'll want
to have some good work gear while you're doing it.
So maybe you want to get see that red Ostrich
logo heading down to San Antonio. That's professional baseball season's helmets.
That's right. They're sponsored by these Strauss Strauss family owned

and engineered to perform from grit to glory. Gear up
now at Strauss dot com. That's S t R A
U S S dot com. All right, So you mentioned
(29:48):
you mentioned the Spurs. Are they the bigger surprise or
are the Bulls the bigger surprise so far in the season, Fellas,
I could say.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
The bulls because no Kobe White like Kobe White was
like pretty much an All Star caliber guard last year,
so coming into the season, nobody really had any like
prognostication that the Bulls were gonna be five to zero
and sitting above the Cavs, who's been a disappointment by
the way. The Knicks been a disappointment by the way.
But I will say we joked, we've joked about Doc
(30:24):
Rivers Calotte in Milwaukee, but he's doing a pretty good
job with the Bucks, considering like the roster they have.
Shout out to Ryan Rawlins, he had a career hout
the other night against Golden State. Like Gary Trentz Junior,
Bobby Fliter's like you got aj Green, you got all
these different role players who have balled in in Milwaukee.
But the biggest surprise is probably the Bulls, I would
(30:45):
say for sure, because they've been a bottom feater since
Michael Jordan's outside of the Derrick Rose a couple outlier
years with joking Noah and Luyle Ding and those guys,
But with d Rose, they've been They bring him pretty
much some bombs in Chicago, but I'm glad to see
him back. Man. The NBA is always better when people
can pulled out the Chicago Bulls started jackets, and the
(31:05):
Chicago Bulls had like, it's a great place where.
Speaker 6 (31:08):
I'm from, where I'm from. I don't know about that.
I don't know about that, sir, But I hear you
not worry.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
It has to be the surprise has to be the Bulls.
They undefeated, and they've beaten some good teams. It's not
like they've they've played nobody. So for the Bulls to
be undefeated, you look and you say, like, wait, wait, wait,
what's going on here? Because five and zero, Josh getty Man,
(31:40):
Josh giddy ballin and you you said it earlier, Kobe
White isn't even playing, and so you like, the Bulls
are undefeated though they must have played nobody. Man, they
don't beat the Knicks. They beat the Orlando Magic, who
many thought was gonna take a huge jump. They beat
the Detroit Pistons, who many thought was gonna take another up.
(32:00):
And they've beaten Atlanta Hawks, who was a playoff team
at albeit it was a plan, and so the Chicago
Bulls may be legit. The concerning thing is the Memphis Grizzlies.
John Moran is playing like twenty eight minutes a game.
And then after we just beat him last night, they
asked it like, hey, what's going on? He say, man,
(32:21):
I asks the coaches many they act like they don't
want me to play. So already you got a first
year head coach and you had your superstar John Morant,
and it's already dysfunction.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Hmm.
Speaker 6 (32:35):
Well, let's hear the sound. Let's hear what TJ's talking about.
What went wrong to you today?
Speaker 4 (32:40):
I'll go as question, star, do you feel like I
mean it was anything you could.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
Do different of this? You rocks?
Speaker 6 (32:51):
They had a whole spill to him.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
So from the outside and that said may be wrong,
but from the outside it didn't look like you had
your usual energy.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Tonight after going sound what okay, do you feel like
you should play more gore or not?
Speaker 3 (33:08):
What had been done?
Speaker 6 (33:09):
What could have been done different get a different outcome
other than actually coaching staff.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
According that they don't probably don't play me.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
Honestly, That's what basically a message was happen. So it's cool.
Speaker 6 (33:20):
The coaching staff Maxers was that's cool.
Speaker 3 (33:23):
We're good. You didn't have anything physically wrong, can just
illness or anything. Okay, I'm fine.
Speaker 6 (33:30):
Personally, I just you know, you, I don't know what
y'all think. What do y'all think? I got my like,
you can't you can't talk out, You can't be this
person that does things that get you in the type
of situations that John Morant gets itself into and then
be butt hurt if cats are trying to see if
they can do it without you, Like it's somebody's job
(33:53):
to try to figure out can we do it without
John Morant at some point in time, of which he
may get in trouble or they need to move on
from him, like you cannot move without a level of
apprehension or trepidation in terms of can I trust that
John Morant is going to be available to us? That's
just me speaking from the hip now. As a talent,
(34:15):
I love the fact that he can play. But as
a talent, you know, do you overlook that? You probably
do overlook that, but maybe they're not doing that right
now with him?
Speaker 2 (34:24):
Can I keep his fighty John Morant? I would not
want him on my team. As somebody who's coached from
the grassroots up to high school, I've been in the
gym with every level of basketball player. I do not
want him on my team in my locker room, because
I see a kid that's immature. It's like, you see,
these kids come from different like backgrounds, right, And I
(34:47):
know I'm familiar with jobs background. He came from a
rural part of South Carolina, you know, a nice little
small knick community. But it's the Deep South. It's the country.
So you come into the NBA, get all this money,
and you get the fame, variety, the clout, we get everything.
I'm seeing an immature kid who's not a leader. He
has a nasty attitude, Like if you listen to John Range,
(35:08):
it's all about sell. Like he's a point guard, and
he doesn't make anybody better on the team, Like who
has been on the team, Like nobody's getting better. Jaron Jackson,
you know, he's he's an enigma. Some nice he averages
like three rebounds even though he's a seven footer. But
like I see with Jay Morant, I see somebody that
(35:29):
could have been like a Derrick Rose. He could have
been like an Ali Harverson. Because we see the electrifying plays,
the above, the rim slam dumpster. He reminds us, he
reminds us of that archetype of player, right, but upstairs
and like, emotionally, I think it's more about emotional intelligence
with John he has to learn, like, bro, you have
to be a leader for the Grizzly because your championship
(35:52):
window closed a few years ago. Now, I feel like anyway,
So I don't think he's in the same conversation with Luca.
You know, type of gods with those type of guard
even the Trey Young's of the world. I don't think
Jos is in that category. But like I said on
social media earlier, he got some nice signature shoes. Though
shoes are amazing, But like, I wouldn't want that guy
(36:13):
on my team. Man, I don't think he will go
to a battle with us like that every night.
Speaker 6 (36:17):
That's cuss the legend. We gotta we got I saw her,
we gotta, we gotta take a break. We got up
on game down on Game. I wanted to hear TJ's

Speaker 9 (39:08):
Let's creak this up, let's break it up.
Speaker 3 (39:13):
Now.
Speaker 6 (39:13):
We have brought cuffs into the fold on these picks,
and I'm just curious to see how much I am
dominating these dudes with what it is that I'm doing
with my picks. But what what we got going on here?
Speaker 2 (39:25):
Man?
Speaker 6 (39:25):
What's what's the deal?
Speaker 7 (39:26):
Well, the good news, as always is there's room for improvement. Man, LaVar, LaVar,
and cuffs. You guys both went one and five.
Speaker 6 (39:34):
That's horrible.
Speaker 3 (39:35):
Planks not horrible.
Speaker 4 (39:36):
No, hey, I'm sorry, that's bottom of the barrel. That's
not horrible. That's oh my god.
Speaker 5 (39:42):
Plaques went two and four, so not much better.
Speaker 3 (39:44):
I probably would have gone five and one. I would
have gone five and one.
Speaker 6 (39:47):
Well, we're gonna find out. We're going to find out now.
Speaker 7 (39:50):
There winning week h obviously Game seven of the World
Series tonight.
Speaker 6 (39:54):
I just wanted to keep cuffs coming back for another
week of bets. That's all that was.
Speaker 7 (39:59):
Let's get the Dodgers in Toronto for Game seven, winner
take all, just pick a winner. The total right now
is seven and a half. To go over under seven
and a half runs, and LeVar will start with you.
Speaker 6 (40:12):
I gotta say, this is a big game, so seven
and a half I'm gonna take. I'm gonna take the
under on it, and I gotta say, I hate to
do this, but I really believe that the Blue Jays
are are going to shock the world tonight. So I'm
going with the blue Jays.
Speaker 4 (40:32):
I knew he was gonna say that. I knew he
was going with the blue Jays. I'm going with the Dodgers.
I don't understand how it's seven and a half and
they can barely score runs, but they may be on
to something. Pitcher may be tired, bullpens aren't up the part.
That's why they need the starters to go these long guinings.
I'm gonna take the Dodgers, and I'm gonna go over
opposite of LeVar, complete opposite.
Speaker 2 (40:56):
Well, I'm gonna think that la Dodgers to go on
the road and get it They're gonna do it for
all hersh heires and I'm killing y'all. Grady Freeman Club
hit tonight.
Speaker 6 (41:06):
Huh. All right, you're taking the over, the under cuffs.
Speaker 2 (41:10):
Checking the under, checking the under, low scoring.
Speaker 7 (41:12):
Game, all right. Next up, the Indianapolis Colts head to
Pittsburgh take on Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers. The line
is currently Indiana minus or Indianapolis by three and a
half road favorites. Here, the total is fifty and a half.
And TJ will start with you.
Speaker 4 (41:31):
I believe the Coats are the best team in the
National Football League, and if they are what I believe
they are, they make easy work of the Steelers. I'm
taking the Coats and I will actually they score a
ton of points.
Speaker 3 (41:45):
I'll take the over also, good good cuffs, I'm.
Speaker 2 (41:51):
Gonna take the under. Ugly Dames are running. Jonathan Taylor,
MVP dark Horse right now, I'm gonna take the Colt
to win, broke money line and the Hunter.
Speaker 6 (42:03):
I'm gonna money line the Steelers, and I'm gonna take
the Steelers to win straight up. And in terms of
the points, I'm gonna take the under on the points
because it's gonna have to be a low scoring affair
for the Steelers to be able to win. So I'm
gonna take the under on.
Speaker 7 (42:16):
It, all right, last one yearly match up here the
Chiefs in Buffalo, the Chiefs a one and a half
point favorite on the road, the total fifty two and
a half, and Cuffs will start with you, man, never.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
Trust the Buffalo Bills again, counter Mams. So I'm gonna
take the under. Pat Mahomes four touchdowns. It's gonna be
like a blowout this time, no defense by Buffalo.
Speaker 3 (42:39):
Man.
Speaker 4 (42:39):
You say that the Bills have beaten the Chiefs in
a regular season on a consistent basis. But with that
being said, I like the way the Chiefs are playing
more than I donna like the Bills.
Speaker 3 (42:47):
I'm taking the Chiefs and I'm taking under.
Speaker 6 (42:50):
I'm taking the over and I'm taking the Chiefs to
cover for certain So there you have it. Appreciate it. Hey,

to hear Jonas Knox. So make sure you stay locked in.
