episode 383: Hook and Ladder
Get ready. [Music] Y'all ready for some live shit? [Music] Welcome. Welcome to the D, baby. It's all live down here. [Music] What you see is all real. [Music] What up, though? Welcome back. Episode 383 of The One Up Go Podcast. Yup, yup. I'm sitting here watching Seattle Vegas playoff game. I started watching the Atlanta. You got to specify what sport. Oh, I'm sorry. WBA, my bad. Yeah, because people are not going to assume that's what you're talking about. Yeah, fair enough. Fair enough. And I can't remember the Atlanta what the Atlanta team is. I know that it's the New York Liberty. I can't remember what Atlanta's name is. Couldn't tell you, Doug. Could tell you. I was watching them. It's probably some bird base because you know they like birds out there. The Falcons, the Hawks. Probably some bird base. That's going to be really crazy that they just decided to just go, you know, Atlanta canaries. Yeah, like what the fuck? Let's see now, fuck. It is the score. The, wait. It's the dream. That's kind of disappointing. Yeah. I'm just glad they actually like to like the pigeons or some shit. Like it would have been a Starks or some shit or Storks or something like right. Yeah. Yeah, I was watching earlier. I didn't realize that there was only a three-game series. And they already had played one game. It's not like shit. You know, Atlanta was getting with them for a minute, but Liberty can fucking shoot. Like they can shoot. And they just, they just kept trying and they couldn't really get it. And I think Atlanta really only had, well, I shouldn't say that because I don't, not that we get many people to like listen. They're actually watches WBA. But I don't know too many players outside of Alicia Gray on Atlanta. And she seemed to be the only one that was really, really doing something on there, at least today. And always I remember Alicia Gray because I haven't watched, I mean, I don't think I've watched any of their regular season games, but she had won a couple of things in the off-star game. I think she won a three-point contest. And I think the skills challenge or some shit like that? That sounds right. And it was only, it was only notable for me because she had the prize money, the prize money that she won, I believe it matched or was more than what her yearly salary was. Yeah, it was something like that. Yeah, I remember that. So, and then I remember. It was a good shift for Emery. Yeah. Yeah. And then I was just like, that's what she said. Cause she sounds weird as fuck. Like I just, I looked at her and her voice did not match her, but yeah. Anyway, so that's why I remember that part. But yeah, the game series, that's crazy. Like you said earlier, you lose one game and then you, you about to get fucking in the prequel elimination. Yeah. That's crazy. Yeah. So, yeah. You go from game one to game seven. Oh my God. And I'm in a blink of an eye and shit. Shit. Like I'm about to be up out of here. Yeah. I think, I think this Vegas, it's the Seattle series. Hopefully, well, it's not like it's about to go seven. If Seattle can, you know, make some noise because Vegas already won one. So, but at least they're closer, closer series with a four seed and a fifth seed. And Atlanta came up because Vegas got off to a really good start. And I was, yeah. Got close. Yeah. Cause Atlanta and Vegas, I'm sorry. Atlanta, New York, that was AC versus one, one being on New York. And you can see why they were new. They were one too. Them chicks was balling. Yeah. They got a girl step. Girl, step on New York. And she, they said that she. Set a career high and a Liberty franchise record with 36 points. And I was going to say about her. Oh, yeah. Like she, like, it makes me wish that she would get that the Liberty would get to the finals and the Indiana would get to the finals. And then they could have like a ponytail face off. Ponytail off. Yeah. Have a ponytail off dog and see who go, who can go off the most to the finals. Like that would be dope. But they've already lost one and it is not looking good. Yeah, it's not looking good for them. So, yeah, it's not looking good for them. Oh, another, uh, on, um, the Liberty, uh, they're fucking center. That chick boy. Um, she was balling. Um, I can't think of her name at the moment, but she recorded her. Fifth. I think it was fifth double double of the playoff. I think she has the most of, uh, the most, uh, double doubles as a. In the playoffs. I have her. So yeah. But she's like seven feet though. Yeah. I guess I could just look at the score and see who had a fucking double double. Um, you know what's the most interesting thing about all of this? Is that even though neither one of them played in the game. Would, would either of us be watching this right now? If it wasn't for Caitlin Clark and injuries, I don't think we were. No, no, not at all. Not at all. And again, that's why I was like, that's why I would get both of them props. And I'm sorry, no shade, but especially Caitlin, because like she's the one that's really, like she's the one that really brought like the spotlight on a WNBA going into this season. And like I didn't watch the whole, you know, I didn't watch the, you know, the first game of the New York Atlanta game. I only cut it on at the end, but like, or toward the end, but I made note, I'm like, man, this whole building is banging dog. Like it's crowded. It's full. They're loud. And I'm like, and I'm sitting here watching it when normally I wouldn't be, and I've watched more WNBA this season that I ever have. And that's because of them too. And so again, shout out to them to both of them. Yeah, for sure. And, you know, I think everybody had to have, you know, I feel like it's very few people who are just die hard WNBA fans from the jumping shit. And everybody had they started points. So it's not, it's not even a bad thing. It's a great thing that Caitlin and Reese, you know, pretty much brought so many people to want to watch because again, they, they neither wanted them on tonight. And, you know, I'm just, I'm generally interested in this shit, you know, I'm sitting here. And that's, that's the most, that's the, I think that's the most telling aspect of what them two have contributed is that we sit here watching this game and they neither wanted them playing in it. And I guarantee, and I didn't watch a look at that shit last season. I didn't watch single playoff second. No, not at all, not at all. And then I was like, check it for the shit when it started, because I mean, we remember in the chat, we was like, yeah, the WNBA playoff start on Saturday, like the fuck. It's like one of them ain't even in the playoffs at all. Right. So, and then tomorrow, well, we got actually this games every day. So tomorrow ponytail and they play the game, their second game against Connecticut and then Phoenix and Minnesota, which I have no idea who's on Phoenix or Minnesota at all. Minnesota is the links. Yeah, they're the links for sure, but I have no idea who on their team. Oh, you know, I think Phoenix has a. What was a homegirl that got free grinder. It got free. I know. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's a pretty good idea. She's on Phoenix. Yeah, I kind of. Oh, and Diana, she's on Phoenix too. Okay. Yeah, her and I want to got emancipated. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But yeah, man, it's a good thing that, you know, they, they've definitely brought tons of tons of fans and shit. And as much as I would like to see Indiana go further, I don't think they can really fuck with Connecticut. Connecticut's fucking balling, but it'd be cool to see. It'd be cool to see a rookie, you know, of that stature, you know, say, make it, you know, pass the first round. But that you, their team, the, their team needs to grow. Like you watch, like, I watched, watched the Liberty earlier and they're just fluid with their shit. You watch, you know, the ACEs Las Vegas and they're just fluid with it. You know, it's, it's, it's more than just, you know, Angel Wilson, you know, saying they got tons of players that are just like pretty good, you know, saying. It's, it's, those are the, it's just like, it's just like NBA or anything where you just, you've got your teams that are less than they're, they're getting there and then you've got the teams that are, you know, you see them. Okay, they're moving well and playing well and shit. So yeah, but it'd be cool. I would like to see the upset with the Indian, Indiana and Connecticut. So we'll see. Yeah, you know, I'll be watching for sure. So, yeah, me too. Well, assuming I'm available to watch it. But yeah, like, uh, speaking of like. Teams like, you know, like a good, you know, being able to tell a good team from a mediocre team or a bad team and also another segue into this topic. Another Seattle team has got a loss coming up for them. Like the Lions. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. The Lions continue to impress me by, like I said, like, I continue to see what it's like to watch a good team play football, because I've spent so much time watching a bad team. And it's like, man, this is what it's like watching a good team. Like, man, this is nice stuff. Like, like, even when the games are like, even when the games are like, nervous and tense and it's like, which is almost all, all of them. But it's still like, I'm still watching like this is a good football team. Like, this game isn't close because we're shitty and the other team is playing down to us. This, this game is close because we're really fucking good. And so is this team playing us or this team is giving every absolute, every fucking thing that they have to try to beat us and they're still failing. So it's like, it's like, man, we just got too many weapons, like, we're probably only going to get better as the season goes on. And to me, like, even at, even though we lost the one game, like I said, the Tampa Bay game, I thought we looked pretty good in that game. And things just didn't pan out. Like, I actually feel like we looked a little bit better in the Tampa Bay game that we looked in the last game, but we ended up getting a win in this game. But, yeah, man, like that they, man, that's a good team. It's so, it's so refreshing. We haven't had that. Like, yeah, like, like, we haven't like, you know, like blown anybody out, nothing like that. But I feel like we have genuinely got off like we have got a tough start to the season. Like, we got a Rams team that's going to want revenge for the playoffs. A Bucks team is going to want revenge for the playoffs. The Cardinals are playing pretty good up until that wasn't their first two games. They had played solid. They had fucked up the Rams the week before. And then now we got to play Seattle, Seattle three and oh, and that's a get back game for us. One that we want to, you know, get back from last regular season. Oh, yeah. So, like, they got, they got tests. So they haven't really, you know, played anybody, you know, week yet. So I'm like, man, like, they already look good to me. They're already playing really good against teams that are good and playing hard against them. They're going to get some games against some shitty fucking teams that they should be able to pop. My only concern right now is I don't like the fact that Minnesota is playing as good as they are. Like, I'm not happy about that. The Packers are surviving without Jordan Love. I'm not happy about that. I was already concerned about the Packers, but I'm like, we got the hardest division in football. Bro, so just not real quick. Green Bay is it's nuts that Green Bay always gets good fucking quarterbacks dog. It's crazy. At one point of the game. Sunday. I think it's named Malik Willis. I think they're back up. Yeah, I think that's it. That food had the most passing yards and the most rushing yards. Like he was fucking balling dog, like a fucking backup, dude, like crazy dog. And I was just like, wow, they just, they just keep, they just keep getting good players. It's just fucking nuts. But yeah, so, you know, Chicago's probably ain't going to be shit this year. It could be a curse from from sitting on what was the quarterback they they traded off fields fields because he's over in the Steelers playing well. I feel like they could have did they could have built, they could have built around fields the same way they're trying to build around Caleb and not have to pick up a first but a pick they could have used that first pick either trade down or get someone else to compliment them. And yeah, I don't think they're going to do well this year, which is, you know, we don't want any of our different people to do well. But yeah, so now we got Chicago fucking shitty but then, like you say, the Vikings looking really good sucks. They're having a decent team, but whatever I mean, we can't worry about what other teams are, you know, how they're looking at how they're playing it, you know, we just got to go out and get wins and, you know, as we've seen they're not, you know, we're what two and one now. They're not, they're, they're not always going to be easy wins, but you know, fuck it, you know, I take it, I take it. If it's stressing me out every fucking game I wouldn't want it to be. But if it's stressing me out every fucking game, fuck it, you know, say long as we get to W. But man, I mean, if I'm stressed over 12 and five or 34 I'll be very, very pleased. Right, right, exactly. And this week was, you know, one of those kind of like, it wasn't a lot to like, you know, jump up and down for, but you know, it was a solid win. I mean, I thought that number one play in a week that will be dog. The hooker ladder. It was, man, what's so fucked up was that I went in a house to do something and came back and it scored. I didn't even see it live. Pissed me to fuck off dog. Pissed me to fuck off. I hate that. That'd be having me where I'd be watching fights and shit like I looked out of my phone for one second and then they could get knocked out like God damn it. Man, it was just so quick, man. I just went in. I forget what I even went in for a dog and then I come back and I don't, and then I ain't here like Kajani was over. I ain't here this nigga cheering or nothing. So I ain't know what the fuck happened. And I see it in his phone and missed it too. Yes. I didn't even ask him, but I was like, damn nigga, you ain't jumping around, nigga. I would have lost my shit. And my wife was watching that bitch watching that bitch live. We both see that shit happen. Oh shit. So do you watch with your wife often? I mean, if you're not hanging out in the garage or just out and about. If, yeah, if I'm not, if, if, yeah, if not, if I'm not over your house or over somebody else's house or people not over here, like, yeah, I will. She be watching. I don't think, my wife only watches if I'm, well, I don't think my wife just watches the game. I don't know if she watches the game, but it hasn't been with me because I'm knowing me in the garage. And I just, I always just assume that she doesn't want to watch. So I just never watch with her and shit. If, if I'm not here, she still, she still be watching the games and shit because she's like, if I met your house, she be texting me like, why the game? Okay. That's dope. Yeah. I mean, she, I don't think my wife does. She, it's not like she doesn't care. She's like, she cares because I care. Right. You know what I'm saying? It's a, she, she, she asked me about, you know, the status of it and shit, but, uh, yeah. So yeah, I can't remember a game. I've actually watched her because usually, like I say, I want to be in a garage. I got, I'm yelling. You know, I got, you know, usually somebody's over here. I don't think I've watched the game by myself. And I can't remember how long. Um, or whatever. So yeah. So it's just my thing or whatever, but that's dope. The job actually walks together. That's pretty cool. Yeah. We've, we've always watched lines games. Like, it's not even like a recent, like, I can't even like front on her. Like, Oh, yeah, she's really into it now that they good. Like, no, we was watching. We've always been watching lines games together. Really? Like, again, like, if I'm not out or whatever, but yeah, like, we'll be watching. Oh, that's dope as hell. Yeah. So now we got Monday night game. You made a fact. I gave you an example how we, how we be watching the list last game against the Cardinals. Who is they kicker? Who is they kicker? Do you remember? Matt Prater. Oh, Matt Prater. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. As soon as she says, I didn't say it was Matt Prater. I'm like, yeah. She knows she knows Matt Prater. Like, yeah, I remember that thing was all here. Which was kind of funny because I was thinking like, I don't remember how he left us. I mean, I don't know what we did to not keep him because, I mean, he's still a good kicker. I just, I wasn't. Yeah. But anyway, yeah. So that was kind of cool. But that's dope. She actually, she recalled him and shit. Yeah. That's up. But I said, that's all she'd be watching. Yeah. So we got Monday night this week. Seattle hope to stop a moorholness. Oh, man, I'm gonna be, I'm going to either be super shitty Tuesday or super hype Tuesday. But man, I wish I'd have to go in the office. I need, I need a fucking Tuesday games. I could be home home Wednesday. So we day to week the lives they never played on, like, I didn't even play. Man, but yeah, I mean, it's, you know, and it's like, you know, like Sunday is going to be like, I'm probably going to like run errands and shit on Sunday and shit like. I don't like I'm so used to, you know, Sunday foot, but now we have like these prime times is like, you know, having a 420 game and that shit was nuts because it's just, we're so used to just one o'clock games and then, you know, we're not, you know, really low profile, but now, you know, being better on the entire profile shit. I think we have like four night games this year or some shit like that. So. Yeah, that's taking some getting used to, like, oh, yeah, I feel like, I feel like, babe, do we ever play at one o'clock on Sunday anymore? See, like, we play all over the goddamn days of the week all over the time and the time of the day. Yeah, man, it's nuts, though. So, yeah, I, yeah, it's gonna be a, I'm looking for it. It's just like, it's just all height to be good now. You know what I'm saying? Well, we need it. You know what else to, we really need to win that game because we're already gonna have to wait a whole extra day and till the night time for that game. And then after that, we're by. So we lose that game. We're gonna have to sit with that shit for two weeks while we wait to play the fucking Cowboys. No, we gotta win that game. Yeah, no, you're right. You're absolutely right. And I want to sit and eat shit for two weeks losing the whole ass Seahawks to two seasons in a row. Yeah, fuck that. And then, yeah, and then having to just wait for fucking. Yeah, that's gonna suck. I know they already gonna know that going in. Like, we don't want to lose this game and have to, like, because anytime you lose, you want to get, you want to get it back as fast as possible. They always say that sport athletes always say that. Whenever they lose, they want to try to get, you know, get a win back as soon as possible. So, you know, if they were to lose, they would be like, all right, well, you know, we want to hurry up and get, you know, get back next week. And then if they lose this week, they're gonna have to wait two weeks. Oh, they're gonna hate that though. That by week on killing them if they lose. But if they win, oh, that by week on, they're gonna stretch that two weeks out, boy. Chillin happy time off recovering from any soreness. Yeah, we got mad players injured. So. Yeah, everybody got mad players. Yeah, yeah, the whole league, if you're in fantasy and you look at some of these teams out here, these fucking liners are depleted. Man, my boy, Terrence lineup dog is ridiculous. Like, he got so many niggas out. It's ridiculous. Damn, that bad. Yeah, so many niggas out and then he picked up replacement people and then they went out. Like, he had Jordan love, then he then obviously Jordan love got hurt in the first game. Then he picked up somebody else who then instantly got hurt. Wow. He got Deebo Samuel, who's out. He got. Who else he got? He got a couple other months, like a good player. So this out, right? Yeah, he's, yeah, he got it bad. Yeah, I got one guy out and I'm just like, well, he was out. Kiddos. And I was just like, shit, but then I looked at some other people. I had a guy in my league. He has like five players out. I don't have nobody out. My team just is not playing good. Like, I got players is just not playing under how they should be. Like, Joe Burro, I got Joe Burro and Jamara Chase. That's, that should be a pretty winning combination. That's how they first good game last this last week was a first good game. Week one and week two, them niggas was liabilities for me. Sam Laporta. I also have the number, I have the number one tight end. We have not thrown this thing at the ball all season. So that's what, so like, that's why, like, basically, those are like kind of like my top, not my top three draft picks, but they're close to, you know, they're, those are like three of my most support players, my quarterback, my actual number one pick, Jamara Chase. And then the number one tight end in fantasy, he's going into the season. Sam Laporta. And then three, like I said, they didn't do shit for me up until, like I said, chasing, chasing. Burro did good in the last game, but that was it. So yeah, my team just been underperforming. I ain't got no, I ain't got no injuries. My best, my best player has been, my best player has been Dallas's kicker, that they got cold. Well, I've been, I've been fortunate. I mean, I lost one game, but they just, that team just had an awesome, awesome lineup that week. But I have Derek Henry. I have the running back for India for Bill's cook. And then my quarterbacks are perdy and golf, which I bitched perdy because kittles out thinking he wouldn't have any targets. And this motherfucker score is like 28 points or some shit. But I know when about like 40. So it was cool. Like I say, Derek Henry bawd out and cook the running back. What's the name of it? And I had somebody else to get like 20 points or whatever. So yeah. Yeah. So it's, it's, it's interesting, but just funny to see the, the how many people are really out this season and shit. With injuries or whatever. So yeah, but this would be cool, man. Looking forward to, to Monday, man. Looking forward. Same. And then we also got the, the other team that played right next door to them, been rallying the past couple weeks. That's over the past month, month and a half. So it's cool to tell that the Tigers are in, you know, the literal sense next door, like across the fucking street. Bro, from Fort Field. That is so fucking cool. Probably a logistical nightmare when both of them are playing at the same time. They was both playing at the same time on the Tampa Bay game. Not this. No, last week. Yeah. The big game. Maybe you can catch me downtown. Yeah. They both played it one o'clock. That's crazy. Yeah. So they won today again. I think Minnesota lost. So we've moved up. So there's a good chance. We, we controlled on destiny. We went out. We, we get in. And I don't know the specifics as far as how you, how that works. But for what I understand, we went out. We went out. We in. So that's dope, man. I haven't really, I mean, when, what's the name retired. I can't think of his name. Who retired last year from Tigers. Oh, Cabrera, Cabrera. It just didn't know, you know what I'm saying? And I admit, I am not the greatest Tigers fan. I'm not fair weather, but at the same time, I'm just not that into like specifics with the Tigers. I mean, it's my home team, but, you know, I can tell you a lot of players names and shit. But I'm happy to see that they turned it up this year. And, you know, potentially about to make the playoffs. That shit is fucking dope. So. Yeah, they are there. They're right there. Like you said, they went out. They, they control their own destiny. They can be in. They've put two games between them and Minnesota now and they got. So Minnesota for those listening is the team that is now on the outside looking in. And the Tigers have now not just moved into that last spot and replaced them, but they're also tied with the form. Well, the current former fifth place team, the Royals. So like. And then the Tigers also play the White Sox to close out the season. And if you guys listening aren't aware, the White Sox are currently on pace to have the worst record and major league baseball history. So nuts. Yeah, they have a. So the Tigers have the most favorable. It's possible that you got the history of time, the most favorable. It's possible. They close the season against the worst team in baseball history. So they theoretically should be good. But I mean, hey, I mean, I've seen crazier things happen in that. So. But yeah, they control their destiny and they're sitting pretty good right now. Yeah, it's it's it's it's it's cool that teams that have I think historically been. I will say the Lions have always been loved even when they've been losing because it's the NFL, but like the two, two, I'd say the two historically losing his teams will be the Lions and the Tigers. The Tigers have won a championship since 1984. The Lions haven't won a Super Bowl ever in any kind of championship since what like 56, 57 something like that. So like two franchises that have experienced a lot of losing over a many, many, many, many, many years is dope to see both of them. The Tigers making a playoff turn and the Lions making a Super Bowl turn at the same time. Like it is it's crazy good. The Red Wings are starting to turn up as well. It's just it's just really bothered me to pressure that this is putting on the Pistons. Like I don't like I don't like I like they can't be bad again like bad bad like they have to be better like because like if everybody else is doing better can't be my team that's like fucking stupid fucking shitty. And it's like every to every every league and every sport that's ever existed like every team can't be good. There's there's bad teams and every season and every league. And I understand that and it's been the Pistons many, many, many times. But like right now, I don't like how it's like people like fuck with them dog and like talking shit drop a little comments. I haven't for Nier who played the Pistons last season briefly. He played for France and the Olympics. He was saying like oh going from the Pistons to the Olympics was like a breath of fresh air shut up nigga. And then you got Jalen Brown, this nigga shows up to the Celtics media day shaved his big ass beard off clean face nigga look like a shaved pussy gonna be like oh no no offense to the Pistons but we usually we let our bench niggas go off on them and we still win the game. I'm paraphrasing but that's what he said I'm paraphrasing but that's what he said it's like we let our big we let our bench niggas log mad minutes and let them do what they do. And we still win the game anyway and that allows them to to gain. And then at the end of it was a good point after he got done with the Pistons shade. And then he did make a good point which is that get allowing those players that are like toward the end of the bench to get run against bad teams does make it so that when you are in a game and it's important and you know your star players go down or they get in foul trouble or whatever those players aren't coming off those players aren't stepping in as like oh it's my rare opportunity to play like these are players that are still accustomed to getting run even though they're on a really good team. So he made like he made the point as a shaved pussy face nigga would make it but not like a real nigga like me made it but it was a decent point but I don't I don't appreciate the Pistons shade. And I remember all that shit. I mean it was just I think it was unnecessary on the list. It was unnecessary it just seemed like you know it could I mean the truth is the truth like it happened to the Pistons fine so be it but it just seemed unnecessary I mean. And you know no one's telling anybody to you know to the curve their their words or anything but you know him saying, you know, against teams that are struggling we got our bench score more would have would have came off just as fine and you wouldn't have had to put the whole ass no disrespect and then do disrespect part you know I'm saying. And so you know whatever that the Norfolk members nigga so fuck it right no disrespect to the Detroit Pistons but disrespect like but we disrespect them every time we play. Like all right cool nigga like but like I know it's because it's here and it's because it's Detroit that I'm taking extra super offense and I don't feel like his comments was necessarily like what he just thought like but it's like I take it extra personally like it was enough. I mean I'm supposed to speak for me. I don't think I'm taking it more. Okay so like say if it was the Wizards right. And he said the exact same thing about the Wizards. I feel like I'm taking it harder than Wizards fans would take it if it was said about them. Like it's it's even though he's right to not right but like even though he's right in that the Pistons are bad and like his his logic behind giving bench players extra free reign to do whatever they want to do when they play play the Pistons is a good point even though all that's the case. I don't think there's a problem I mean it's not a problem. I feel like you know if the like your analogy of like the Wizards player there are some probably Wizards fan is probably it may be not as much as you are a fan of the Pistons but almost. I would assume I would hope that you know if you're enough a fan of that to that stature. You're going to take offense like you know at the same time you know your team you know you know the capabilities of your team and you know they got to do better but it's still fuck that nigga. So I'm with that. I think that ships trash is fuck because it was just unnecessary. And I really hope. Yeah and I really hope that they are in training camp like with a chip on a shoulder like man we can't be out here getting punk like this no more because like last season. It was too many moments where it felt like they gave like where they gave up. Like they were just like yeah fuck it like they just allowed shit to go wrong for them like I said it was the worst season I've ever experienced in my life. Like it was and not just the fact that like they lost a lot but how they lost. Like I said you remember that one time I was like when they when they ended up tying the losing streak record and I was and I was saying like within the game where they tied it. I was saying like you you wearing Detroit on your chest and you went out there and let them niggas bitch you out like that for the fucking lost record like you didn't even fucking try. Like that was like the lowest point in like pisses history to me dogs I felt like them like not only did they lose all them games but like they went out like some bitches like they didn't even try to stop it. Like them niggas didn't have no heart. That's what I that's what I don't like any nigga with no heart get the fuck out of here. I don't want you with a Detroit uniform uniform if you a pussy that's going to lay down like night after night and allow yourselves to get beat like that. Like if you don't get beat you better get beat trying nigga like don't get beat being like no bitch dog and it's like so any any nigga that play like that they can get the fuck on. Like I said it in an earlier podcast when I was about the story I was talking about with my dentist and I was like the pisses need to be taking a page off the lions book and like man I never thought I would say that. But like the lions are playing like how a Detroit team's supposed to play. I'm going to get reputation for that they know you come here you're going to get fucked up. We don't play that shit you up so you better come ready to you better come ready to get down when you come to Detroit. That's how the Pistons was in the 80s that's how the Pistons was at 04. That's how the lions are right now. And that's how the Pistons need to be this season because them niggas last season. The last season was Pussy with a capital P. Yeah it was it was tough watching man I watched a lot of games last year. And I was just like ah this is rough you know I'm saying but you know we're out. I think real fans don't stop watching we may get discouraged but you know I watch a lot I wanted to see the bit the. I wanted to see I just wanted to see them play but it was rough it was rough as fuck. Yeah at the end of the day duh like. Like even though they were terrible. I still like watching my team play it's like all right time for the Pistons like this is like that's just like that's just. It's part of my life like like it's just like all right time for the Pistons like that's just what it is. And so that's never going to go away like I watched like I'm like I don't know if I watched every single game. I know I didn't watch every single one like totally like the whole the whole from start to finish I know that for sure. But like I probably watched. The majority of. Almost every game. And it's still it's like. Part of me hates it. Watching them be that bad but then also it's like I said it's still like it's part of like. It's kind of like what I described about how when I'm in the garage and this is off off Mike so y'all listening I'm going to know what I'm talking about. But before we started recording I was telling Otis about how when I'm in the garage. I need a cigar to properly feel relaxed because I'm just so my brain just associates cigar with garage and chilling that if I come in the garage to chill but I don't have a cigar I can't properly relax because like my brain is like this ain't right. So I need to have something to kind of like to kind of like scratch that itch and like the pistons are kind of like like that that thing that I need just like like I need a cigar to relax like I need the pistons to just feel right. So it's like even though. They lose it it sucks and I hate watching it. There's also the part of it is it's like it's just it's just ingrained in who I am like alright it's it's the NBA season is 730. Alright time to turn on the pisses game like and I don't do it out of habit or because I you know don't want to I want to every single time. I'm like alright time for the pisses like I'm ready to watch even I'll be time for the pisses easy because probably about the lose but time for the pisses like it's just I don't know it's just it who I am so it ain't going nowhere but I'm going to eat them niggas did not be no bitches next year I know that. Or this year. Yeah, I just need a little I just need somebody to get I need I need I need a few more players to give a fuck. I'm looking forward to the the new coaches this year. I feel like that's going to be really you know instrumental and and how we you know we turn shit around. And so I'm really curious you know how they're going to react how the players are going to react to new coaching and you know I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm hyper about to see I'm more hyper about the season than I probably have in a few years. Just because of the changes and stuff that we've made, you know I think Kate is you know I think he I hope that he has a breakout season, you know. I hope he gets his just do you know it's I don't know I just feel like he doesn't because we're playing bad. I don't think he gets the respect he probably should get. That is 100% accurate. He don't get the respect he should get because we're bad. But here's the thing like I don't know if the team is going to be worth the damn like I don't think they might still be the worst team in NBA they might be they better be better than they were last season because I mean like if you not like what the fuck. You know I'd say a benchmark for I think a successful season will be like 30 wins right. If they can win 30 games that I think a lot of people will be satisfied with that. I just needed to not be. I need to not be another embarrassment. And I think the fact that we made some moves that are not they're not moves where it's like oh now we're going to be contenders like not moves like that. I think those moves that are meant to help open up the floor for K Cunningham to be able to operate better. Like I think those moves are like not necessarily moves that are be like oh now the team is way better because they got this player that player that player is going to be the team is going to be better or hopefully will be better because the players that they got K Cunningham to be better and then he will in turn then make the other players around him better. So like that's kind of what I'm not even hoping for. That's kind of what I'm expecting because he's going to have players around him now that you can't just like they can't double and triple team K like like you know all the time they can still can get get his points off but like they get they're not going to be able to do that no more. He's going to be able to operate. He should be able to make the team better. The other players better all that good shit. That's what I'm hoping for. And then you know as the season goes on hopefully Trajan Langdon can make some good assessments and it moves need to be made to get rid of niggas playing like bitches or if he's like hey we're better than we thought if we make a move maybe we can get a little you know maybe make a run for a playing spot or something like that that that that move gets made. I don't want to. Like there's certain things that I don't want to waste time on like like there's like the pieces have this habit of like giving up all players too early right and then we gave Killian Hayes like way too much time and way too much meant way too many minutes. Shit like that. I don't want to like get rid of people just because they're not like good right away but people who aren't culture fits can can go right away. Like we need to have the same mindset just like the lions exact same as the lions we that same mindset and everybody here needs to have that same mindset niggas who don't have that mindset no matter how good you are I can get the fuck on. I hope Trajan Langdon is on that kind of shit like if if if I don't even care who it is I already know Kate isn't like this so I'm not even going to use him as an example but like during or some shit like if during was a kind of negative like don't give a fuck and he's like yeah we can you know I'm just going to get that I'm like I don't care or I'm just gonna be out here like not even putting in effort get the nigga get the fuck on like I don't care so like I want niggas that fit that culture and who are going to play hard who go play be gritty who ain't going to take no shit and who ain't going to lay down if you know things get bad and they are like you know I want some things to have some heart and that let them niggas last year they had no heart. No you're absolutely right and I think that and you need coaching to recognize those people you know coaching the higher ups and shit Trajan whether it's him whether it's you know coach or whoever it is to recognize the players that we need on that team and you know either facilitate you know making them work hard to do that or you know move moving the fuck home to my fuckers and not just you know wasting time and shit. And you're right and the coach thing is important too because like I like I said for a lot of last season like it felt to me like Monty Williams was almost purposely sabotaging the team like that like when a lot of time has passed it was still be fuck that nigga with equal passion like I said that shit when I was at the dentist man I didn't say fuck that nigga but I was like like I'm normally like very I'm not even very talkative in general as you as you know like I'm not right now but like generally I'm not that talkative and so I'll be at the dentist I'll just be posted he asked he was asked me about the Pistons because you know this is what we do and then he mentioned something about the coach and I was like I don't remember what I don't instantly got furious like I don't even remember what I said I just remember I just said man fuck him and I like I don't even talk like that at the dentist. That I hate body Williams so much done so I think automatically they should be like I think last season was the perfect storm of like fuck shit like they had too many people who didn't give a fuck. Monty Williams came in here and just I again did not could not give any bit of a little fuck he gave Killian Hayes a whole fucking half season of to be terrible to continue to be terrible like now we made the right decisions we were going to stop you know having a player who's one of those statistically worse niggas ever play fucking 30 minutes a game every goddamn night we're going to stop doing that because we ain't got them no more and hopefully we'll have a coach we will we do have a coach who gives like if you give any amount of fuck you give more fuck than Monty Williams gave so like you just give you give five percent of fuck you give more fuck than Monty Williams gave so like I just want to like like we're going to be better off from coaching we're going to be better off on our players that we're bringing out on the floor. And I think that this could be the start of the breakout for Kate kind of hammed up because like I said I feel like he should be like twenty five eight and eight next year. Like I'd like not even bullshit he should be twenty five eight and eight and it like if we're and if he's putting up them kind of numbers and we can just be halfway decent like he should be all star. Oh definitely definitely be a all star. Yeah like that's my expectation for him this season is to make the all star team. Yeah when is a when is regular when this preseason start for for Pistons or NBA October. Early October. I guys probably some games in the first week. I have it up but I don't remember anymore. Yeah I'm actually looking forward to looking forward to going to games this year. That's the first preseason game is October six. And I also remember because I remember I did look this up earlier. That's our first game but I think the preseason starts as early as like October 4th or something like that. Like we don't play to the six but like I think there's like there's games on like the fourth and the fifth. I might try to go to because I'm like I know game I know these seats better be cheap this season. Don't play with me. They should be shit. I mean but shit. They probably still a really number pan minding fucking with seventy million and shit. So they're probably trying to get that back assholes. Man I hate that nigga. Anyway I was a man don't man don't even get me started about Monty Williams. Man I hate that nigga. I probably sock that nigga if I see him in the street. Straight Ray J nigga. I punched that nigga. I punched that nigga. I was just but you said it. That's where I was thinking about that nigga. Oh yeah we ain't got to talk about money because that's bad vibes. But yeah I'm looking for I want to go to I want to go to the Pistons game this year. Which I had that same hookup for my last job but fuck that job. But yeah looking forward to some games. I'm pretty sure I won't make a Lions game unless I you know I have to win some tickets that they go to a Lions game. Man shit dog for real for real dog. So them motherfuckers. That's the kinds of team getting good at these motherfucking tickets. It's a fucking rages dog. Fucking nuts. So yeah I'm gonna have to win some tickets somehow. Some way. Yeah and I'm not going I'm not going to complain about the ticket prices because I know a lot of people who have been fans of like like like decent teams. They're probably like what we pay for tickets. Baylor probably accustomed to playing paying if you go to like a Raiders game or something like that. Like they played Raiders Raiders fans probably accustomed to this level of pricing. But but us. I don't think it's be like $300 to not get a seat. I stay my ass home for that shit. But man I would love just to be down there just to experience the energy and you know. I don't see myself tailgating because I mean not not because of the bullshit that happened last you know with that shooting and shit. But I'm just I don't know I just I would just rather be home or someone's house. You know enjoying the energy the people I know really are fans and shit versus tailgating. So talking really really big for me. I've been a few times but I don't necessarily have to do that. But to be at the actual game though the energy there has to be fucking nuts. Man it's like. Do y'all go to a Sunday night or Monday night game last year? Yeah I went to the Monday night game against the Raiders. That's the one where I was on the field and picture I'm around all that shit. Like so I went to that game and like I can't even. Like it I mean it was a Monday night game but like that so that's already going to add some extra but like. We were kind of deep into the season. We were already kind of good. We were already good at this point. It was like. Then this as you know last season was like our first you know really good season. So like the excitement was ridiculous. So it was incredibly fucking next level. But I mean I don't know if it's like that all the time. It probably is. But it was like I feel like it had to be super extra next level. Just because it was Monday night. It was the first Monday night game I think we had of that season. Well no no because we opened up the season on Monday night against the Chiefs right. So yeah. But yeah like that game. Yeah it was crazy like. It the only difference the only reason I still would put. The NBA playoffs ahead of it. When I went to the pit when the Pistons were good like the old like the championship team good like. The only reason I put that ahead of it is because it's the playoffs. Like it's not like and there's like I like it probably be comparable if I went to either the you know the Rams or the Seahawks game in the playoffs last season. It probably be comparable. But like or this you know the same or better or whatever. But I would say my experience of what it was like being at the Lions game that Monday night game last season was. Probably like it was probably the second it was the second best. Like the second bet but the NBA playoffs though like you can't. Especially here because like I said you know like again we're a hard worker city like we respect the grimy to grit the toughness. So our fans are extra fucking passionate and like man going to an NBA playoff game when your team is good. Like I'm sure going to an NFL playoff game when your team is good is probably maybe even better. But I haven't done that yet. So for what I've experienced going to an NBA playoff game when your team is good is next level. That's still the best the best moment I've experienced in sports is being at NBA playoff game. Yeah. But anyway I'm not expecting to go to a Lions game either unless I win win tickets to one through work. Yeah I'm gonna have to somehow because yeah it ain't it ain't happened otherwise because I ain't got it done. Yeah well that's how I went last season was winning the tickets through work so really my only options. So yeah we'll see. Yeah a lot of things to look forward to man a lot of shit look forward to. Yeah yeah so hopefully hopefully we can win some tickets hopefully we can get into some games this year. But like you said man like it's more fun just being with you being with the people that you know our fans like if like a small group of friends that that y'all can do whatever you want to do smoke drink whatever you want to do smoke drink whatever you want to do. Do smoke drink whatever and you know everybody give a fuck you know ain't nobody gonna say nothing while flagrant. Oh well I don't know Robbie say some flagrant shit sometimes but yeah. But by a large part right. By a large you know they're like I know I know Dan Tony Johnny I know they go say that flagrant. So you know both the most part you know everybody gonna be cool and everybody genuinely cares and with good things happen everybody's genuinely happy. And it's people that you know and it's better than tailgating. So yeah it's still it's still way better tailgating. But yeah I mean being at the game is a totally different thing though it's a totally different vibe like. It's not it you lose the camaraderie because you don't know nobody there. So you lose that kind of like I'm sharing this great moment with my friends you lose that because you're sharing a great moment with strangers. But then you also have the experience of being at the stadium when this shit is happening and it's insane. So yeah and it's not even it's cool you know to the energy of like all the people. But you know I'm saying it's not necessarily because like certain strangers per se. But it's just cool to see the energy of so many people thousands of people you know cheering and you know the shit you see on TV. To be an experienced that in person that's like the coolest shit to me. Or being like at a game and shit you know so yeah that's the one thing that that puts the NFL above it is because the stadiums are so big. When you have that kind of shit going on it's like it's it's next level crazy. Like like the loud like I've that was definitely the loudest I've ever the loudest experience I've ever had was that that Lions game on Monday night like not even close. Like that was by far the loudest thing I've ever been to because like you can't is way just way more people there. You know it's two three times as many people as you might have it like a depending on the football stadium as you might have a basketball game. You know you might have 20,000 at a basketball game you might have 60,000 at your football stadium doesn't Dallas's stadium seats a while high number. So like it should they should huge dog pass. No Jerry Jones. Yo okay real quick because I didn't watch the video and I wasn't sure what happened. What the fuck did Jerry Jones say to to Jamie Foxx dog. That dog this whole video is like a minute and a half videos it was not that long. Jamie Foxx is like live on I'm assuming he's like on IG live or some shit like that. But he's also sort of live and he's at what looks like the Cowboys practices some shit and he's up in the like the owners thing with Jerry Jones and shit. And he's just live and he's just you know watching this shit blah blah blah and they're just talking about what's going on. And most of the shit you can't even hear because it's like so much of background loud background shit like whistles and players running and yelling. And like you can't really hear what's being said because there's just so much noise everywhere. And then like right at the end of the video like you hear him say he starts talking about like the size of a player like yeah he's 65 to 285 runs a blah blah blah blah. And then like right before the video cuts off you just hear and an eight and a half inch ding. But wait what? Like first of all the fact that you said eight and a half makes me feel like you was actually measuring because like who like like what do you get this random number from. Right even if I if I ignore the fact that you're even talking discussing this the dick size of your players even if I ignore that. And so he's like yeah you got an eight inch dick I'll be like okay well he probably seen it when he walked in the locker room and he ballparked it whatever like it's still not whatever like don't don't talk about players dick size to me. But like if you just say yeah you got an eight inch dick I'll be like why the fuck do you why are you telling me that but I'm just gonna be like okay you probably seen it and he's just saying that's his way of saying like it's big or something like that. Yeah eight and a half I'm like dawd did you like how did we get it. Like where did you break where did you break out the items that you've got it down to the half inch. Half an inch is not something you can eyeball like you got a look at that dude I was about eight half inch dick. Like at least I hope you can't do that. I couldn't do that. And why are we even talking to better the size why are you talking about this. And why did that even come up like why do you think JB Fox would be interested like what was he supposed to be like oh for real. What was he supposed to do. Wow. And I don't even know what player he was talking about thankfully but like I said the whole thing is basically just you can't understand hardly none of it like it's just too much background noise and it's like eight and a half inch dick. Like bro and then and then and then JB Fox just cuts the feed off. Jesus Christ yeah after that ain't enough to say shit why are we talking about dick stuff. Right yeah I already cut this off now. God damn. And then he probably heard it better than we could so he probably figured like man now that not everybody was watching my live know about whoever dick this is but he probably didn't know that we couldn't hear shit because of how loud it was. Jesus Christ. Yeah no Jerry Jones. No Jerry Jones. Yeah. Anyway well I guess uh we didn't know that unless you get anything else. Nah we can ride with it. Alright well go Lions until next week. Yep. Peace. Peace. Peace. [BLANK_AUDIO]
