Andrew Schulz and Akaash Singh dissect Israel Adesanya's UFC 286 victory, arguing his "Death Note" entrance and viral antics created a marketable spectacle surpassing Robert Whittaker's wrestling pedigree. They debate whether Adesanya should target Canelo Alvarez for a $100M mega-fight while critiquing racial bias in Christian McCaffrey's media coverage versus white quarterbacks. The conversation expands to NBA scoring records, the Houston Rockets' geopolitical controversies, and conspiracy theories linking Drake to XXXTentacion's death, ultimately questioning corporate capitalism's influence on sports narratives.

Got Bobby Knuckles out of there in the second round.
And I'm going to tell you guys something.
I was texting with him prior, and he told me it was round two.
Called it.
So crazy.
Called it.
Told me it was round two.
He goes, I think I'll get him out of here in round two.
He goes, I'm ready for seven, but I think we get him out of here in round two.
Well, it's a five-round fight, but ready for seven means as long as anything.
Basically, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha.
So like when you train for a like a 12-round boxing match, you're like, I'm training for 15 rounds.
I mean, it doesn't matter.
Because how, whatever.
The point is this.
It was an unbelievable fucking fight.
Did you watch the fight?
Watch the replay.
Watch the replay.
So, yeah, you watched the fucking thing.
Yeah, yeah.
You watched the fight.
And you watched it.
Okay.
It was an unreal fight, but more than just an unreal fight.
And we'll get into the minutia of the fight and talk about that.
What was so incredible about it was the spectacle.
We need to talk about it.
Yeah, we need to talk about this because what I think a lot of fighters don't get, and Whitaker is one of them, is that it's really not about how good you fight.
It's not only about how good you fight.
If you want to be a star.
If you want to make money in the game.
Yeah, it's prize fighting.
It is prize fighting.
Prize fighting.
You got to give me moments to be like, that's the fucking guy.
And that was a moment.
People watching that fight, the majority of people watching that fight have no fucking clue how fighting works.
Yeah.
I don't.
You don't.
You don't.
I don't even know MMA shit.
I know boxing, but I don't know about the kicks and the fucking jiu-jitsu and the ground stuff and the wrestling.
Like, I don't.
But I love storylines.
Yeah.
I love getting attached to someone.
I love knowing that there's some beef or something going on.
And Izzy carried the entire promotion.
The other guy in the promotion.
Didn't say a word.
Didn't say a word.
He was like, he was like, yes, he's pretty funny guy.
He has some good comebacks.
He really wasn't doing anything to build the fight.
And the UFC has to be so fucking exhilarated that Stylebender won because you don't even have to promote him.
He's going to promote himself.
Promote himself.
And there was a lot of things.
And mind you, this isn't all sports.
Especially in combat sports, there's always like these star-making moments for motherfuckers.
Like Mike Tyson had his star-making moment.
Floyd, fucking Hector, whoever.
It usually happens in boxing because knockouts are more common in all the shit.
But UFC, it's rare that it happens.
Conor McGregor had one.
Conor McGregor had one.
John Bones Jones had one.
Spider had one.
I don't think Jones had it.
Jones didn't have one?
We'll get into that, but I don't think he's Spider Silver had plenty.
Fucking McGregor had plenty.
Ronda Rousey, all these people.
It's hard to get those type of starmaking moments in the UFC.
It's hard to get people to give a fuck about a sport so violent and make it look so fucking like beautiful.
Like from the entrance to the way he knocked the motherfuck out to the way he fucking danced after the fight.
The shit he was talking.
Like, bro, he was a household name.
The very next Sunday on Football Sunday.
He is the top story in all the sports news.
It's not about the fight.
It's about the night.
You are paying for entertainment.
You must entertain.
And while a fight is entertaining because it's the highest stakes, it's like if you lose, you get knocked out.
You could have irreparable damage.
I mean, you could die.
That's why we watch this because there's a chance that you fucking die.
It's high stakes, you know?
But the whole package of entertainment.
If you look at, I look back at, you know, there's guys like Floyd Mayweather making hundreds of millions of dollars.
There's boxers named Barrera Morales.
These are names that the average fight fan will definitely know who ended up making.
And even some casuals back in the day, they were making millions of dollars.
And they all made that money because of one boxer by the name of Prince Nassim Hamed.
Prince Nassim Hamed was the first, I think he was 130-pounder who added spectacle to the music.
Was he the one who would do the flip into the ring?
Flip into the ring.
He would do the Michael Jackson thriller theme music as he walked to the ring, and he's dancing on the way.
And what he showed the boxing world is, oh, your weight doesn't define your worth.
Meaning, back in the day, it was if you're a heavyweight.
Yes, that's who made the big money.
No, your draw defines your worth.
And he started having these massive draws at 130 pounds.
All of a sudden, we were watching little guys fight.
Now, the perception back in the day was, why would I watch some guy fight that I could beat up?
Now, granted, these 130 pounders would still strong people.
But for the average six-foot dude, like for a guy like you, you'd be like, I'll kick Marco Antonio Barrera, whatever.
I'll kick his ass.
He's little.
Casuals.
Casuals, because you see big, you assume it always equates with strength.
So I'm almost going to watch the heavyweight fights because those are the real ass kickers.
And they have the knockdowns.
At that amount of weight, you're going to knock people out.
Izzy understands the game.
Okay?
The guy planned an intro with choreography and boys.
And also, well, you add another level because it's the fact that it's boys.
Let's say they weren't even his boys.
Let's just say it's part of the night, right?
Plans the dancing in the beginning.
Amazing.
Beautiful.
He's actually good at dancing.
He gets you hyped.
Okay.
Goes into the ring.
It doesn't stop there.
Before the fight, when the camera pans to him, he signs the death note.
Right?
For the anime nerds.
The anime nerds are plugged in, right?
Part of the dance, I think, was something.
The anime nerds.
The Naruto-ish.
They did the Naruto run up.
Of course.
The fucking avatar type thing.
Now, when you write the death note, right?
The death note is a meme.
Yes.
The death note is a gif.
The death note is shareable.
The death note goes social.
The dance goes social.
You can't guarantee.
The celebration at the end is a gif already.
And then we do the fight.
You knock him out.
That's going to be great.
But we're not done.
After the knockout, the celebration with the gun, when he shoots everything, that's a gift.
That's a meme.
You're sending that to your friends about your own personal shit.
And we're not done.
We're not done.
The whole world is watching because you knocked this guy out.
All the eyes are on you.
You use that to promote your next fight.
He goes right up onto the cage and he throws the middle fingers at Paola Costa, calls him a juice monkey or whatever he is.
And again, before USBS.
That's the guy he talked about when he first came on here, right?
Yes.
So, exactly.
Yes, he was sitting in that exact chair.
Yo, to that.
I just realized he said, you know how he said, like, I see the next move.
I don't always, I'm always looking two, three moves down the road.
He's been seeing that move for a minute.
That double middle finger.
He's been thinking about that since the first time he came here, what, a year ago?
Yes.
Just about.
Now, I'll tell you from personal experience.
This has happened to me even with my own shows.
Sometimes you're so concerned with executing and wanting the outcome that you don't want to change anything or jinx it or risk it.
You know, there'll be times where we're doing a show and we're setting up some cameras and Alex will put a camera like on the stage somewhere and I'll be like, maybe they can see the camera and that'll make them feel uncomfortable.
And if they feel uncomfortable, maybe they won't laugh and I'll get in my head about it.
Yeah.
I have to force myself to say, fuck it, right?
Because what happens when that camera's there for the magical moment?
Right.
And then you get that clip that ends up going viral.
There are very few people that can see beyond the win and plan past the win.
But if you can plan past the win, everything past the win is escalated.
So if you have your dance, if you have how you, even how he saluted his parents afterwards, all of those things.
Very good Eurobar boy.
For sure.
Went down.
I'm like, my mom saw that shit.
She was like, he is a good boy.
He could have made that whole shit up, but all the white people watching were like, oh, that's how Africans say a little bit of parents.
So everything, the fact that he had all these extra moments on top of it, right, is where you sell you yourself and where we start to follow you and see what's going on.
What do you do when the world's watching?
Yeah.
What do you do when people are paying attention?
And how can you capitalize on those moments?
And I'll be honest, before you get the victory, it's hard to plan those because you feel like you're not.
You're not getting the victory.
You feel not getting the victory.
And there's an arrogance that you fear.
Like, yo, if I act like I got the victory, God or whoever, whatever, might not give me the victory to humble me.
And then you just fuck yourself because you lose that moment after.
Yeah.
You know what it's like?
It's like getting on a plane, buckling your seatbelt, and go, planes don't crash.
Yeah.
This will be the one that fucking plays.
I land planes.
I land them, bitches, right?
But like, but who would say that?
You don't say it because you're like, let me just fucking land.
Yo, if the pilot said that, I wouldn't feel confident, but shut the fuck up, man.
You're too dark.
So that's what you think about before a massive moment like that.
You're like, let me just not, let me just get through this.
Let me make sure to do it.
But there's a difference with people that are superstars.
They plan after.
And the Conor McGregor's.
That's my next point.
My point is, I haven't seen Izzy's something like this since Connor McGregor, especially for UFC, not only because he's youngish, he's just turned 30.
One thing that people want to talk about, he's representing a market that the UFC hasn't really tapped yet.
This is like they got the Nigerian champions, but they still haven't had that UFC Africa event that they know is going to do 80,000 in whatever fucking stadium it is.
The same thing with Conor McGregor, as big as he was, and not only was he a great fighter and a big fighter, he was big for fucking Ireland.
And now every time he came out, all of Ireland's coming out season motherfucker.
Now Izzy, everybody.
All four million Irish people.
But they're coming deep.
And now, like, Nigerians and now, you know, everywhere.
Nigeria, you got 100 million.
They're going to come out.
Now they have the buying power of 3 million Irish people.
You still have 100 million.
Well, I mean, like, it's a great time for the UFC, especially with Nigerians, man.
Dude, he's a star.
The rock DM'd him.
He peeped, I think it's screenshotted.
Shaq, I didn't know Conor McGregor was putting him on his IG story, talking about what a great fight it was.
He ready, man.
Household name overnight.
It is household name.
He is the face of the UFC.
And outside of the Africa market, which is 100% absolutely, I think what he brings to UFC right now is the most potent marketing device that exists in the world today, which is hip-hop.
The UFC is devoid of hip-hop with its major stars.
To be honest with you, Conor McGregor is the closest thing because he was real flossy.
Oh, oh, oh, outside of Flossy.
What was his name?
What is his Instagram name?
Oh, the Notorious MMA.
My bad.
You're right.
You got that.
He would come out to the viral clip of hip-hop.
He comes out to Biggie.
He got in the bike, singing all.
All that shit.
Flex on people with the Gucci belts, the Gucci shoes.
Motherfucking D-O-Double Gs.
Absolutely.
And the dude would rap.
He would spit.
He would have the swag.
He brought hip-hop.
When I say hip-hop, I don't mean literally the black people in the Bronx that started hip-hop.
Yeah.
I mean the essence of what hip-hop represents.
Youth.
Outside of confidence.
Swag, confidence, bravado, right?
But also execution.
Yo, I'm the man, but watch me spit and prove that I'm the man.
You know what I mean?
So it's like, and I think that what happened is they, I think people thought John Jones was going to be hip-hop just because he was a black guy.
He's black, yeah.
He's not.
He's not.
Jones Jones don't even sound hip-hop.
Jones Jones is a fucking country DJ in Albuquerque where John's is from.
Like John Jones is from.
Like John Jones, to be honest, is like a Midwestern fucking regular dude.
There's no swag to him.
You're not really sure who he is.
Iggy, Iggy, Izzy represents, Izzy represents hip-hop, and it's where he's from as far away as you possibly can get from hip-hop.
And he's in New Zealand and whatever else that you don't associate with hip-hop.
Oh, you thought you did it?
But you know what?
You know what the hood was into when I was growing up?
Dragon Ball Z. Kung Fuzzy.
Dragon Ball Z.
It was Kung Fu for the older heads, right?
Wu-Tang clan, it was Kung Fu for the older heads.
And then the younger heads start to get into Dragon Ball Z and these like suburbs.
No, anime Zero.
Like Meg The Stallion, another one.
Huge, huge anime fan.
Does a whole bunch of cosplay and shit.
Like hip-hop and anime have always had like this weird non-relation relationship with each other for a long time.
I guess my point was more he seems very comfortable in his own skin.
None of it seems put on.
It just, I mean, yeah, it's just dope.
It seems authentic.
And I think it's going to sell.
He's not going to sell like Connor McGregor Soul, but I think he, I don't know much about fighting, but he seems like a better fighter.
I think Conor McGregor, look, there's a racial component to everything.
You can't deny the racial component in things.
The UFC is a predominantly like white fan base, just like most fan bases are predominantly white.
Where in America, it's a predominantly white country, et cetera.
Right.
I think that Connor definitely satisfied that outside of like Ireland.
He also satisfied like, you know, white dudes are like looking for a guy with some fucking bravado to go handle it, right?
And, but I think what Izzy does is he spreads the sport.
And I think that he is an example for all these young kids, like a Gervante Davis, who's a boxer out of, I think, Baltimore.
Yeah.
If Jervante was 10 years younger and saw Izzy fight, he might.
He's an MMA fighter.
So this is where you start to see, in my opinion, Africans absolutely getting into MMA, but more so than just African.
You get to see the American hip-hop-influenced audience say, I'm going to take a jiu-jitsu class.
I'm going to take a kickboxing class.
Izzy Spreads The Sport00:16:42
I'm going to do that.
Whereas the hood was always football, boxing, basketball.
That's rap.
And the great thing about him and the way he broke it down, almost like how Deshaun Watson broke down fucking defenses in football, he made it very fucking digestible for everybody in the post-fight conference.
He was talking about how just because these guys are big and juiced up, whatever, they don't mean they're the best fighters.
They look at me like I'm some skinny dude or whatever.
Bring it.
I don't care if you hit the hardest.
I hit the most accurate.
I'm a striker.
And he broke that shit down.
And that's exactly how he won.
A year and a half ago, another podcast you weren't at.
He talked about it.
I was one.
I was on both of them.
I was the other one, asshole.
He talked about how, like, I don't, he said this exact thing.
I don't need, I'm going to change the way people fight.
Do you think Kat's going to make it to your wedding?
When he's asking for his invitation, the mail will be like, bro, I think it might be late.
But it's going to get there.
Don't worry.
It's going to be there.
I'll be there.
I'll not miss it for the world.
God damn.
Even if you don't want to go.
Go over a slam event.
Introduce two hot dog vendors a little later on.
Grand Central Station.
So I can't make the podcast because it's a very important hot dog introduction thing.
One of them's a halal sand there.
It's a tough thing.
You know what I mean?
I can't stop the work out there, Moe.
He talked about that exact thing.
And it's so crazy.
Everything he talked about a year ago, you are seeing now.
He has known, predicted, seen, whatever it is.
He talked about this exact thing.
I will take everybody.
I don't need to punch the hardest.
I punch accurately, and after a while, it wears you down.
You can only take so many.
That's exactly what I was hearing them say on the commentary.
Like, he's getting these shots, and it doesn't seem like much, but it's going to start to wear on this guy.
It's going to start to wear on Whitaker.
And honestly, what really I think helped him in my eyes is the fight before then.
We were talking about it with Tyson Fury, where somebody needs some rounds in him.
Kelvin Gastolem.
Kelvin Gastle.
Kelvin Gastolum in a war.
And it was brutal.
And he got fucked up.
But it was like, okay, he took that.
He can go to distance.
He said that after that when he said that, he spoke about that here.
What happens in those events, and he spoke about that here, is you don't know how long you could hold your breath until you're drowning.
You know what I mean?
Like when you're underwater, you and I, right now, we probably think we could hold our breath a minute.
But when you're drowning, you're going to realize it could be two minutes.
But then you might die.
But right before you die, all right, I can go kill him.
Right?
And that's what you learned.
And that's what he learned in that fight is like how far he could take it.
So there's a renewed sense of confidence.
And how far his heart would go.
100%.
Not just I can last.
I got the endurance.
I will not fucking give up.
I won't do it.
I'll die in this ring.
I'll be a coon.
That's what he said.
So he goes.
So I'm watching this.
I'm watching a little some tape on Robert Whitaker.
And the only thing I was concerned about was if Izzy was going to get caught with an overhand right, right?
And overhand right is a punch that's looping, right?
So a straight right is obviously stuck straight out.
And then overhand right is the one that kind of goes up in the sky and then comes down.
Right.
Remember that old Martin Lawrence, or maybe it was Jamie Fox, I forget the old man Hearn.
No, the club punch.
Oh, yeah.
It was a Martin Lawrence stand-up.
That guy was Jamie.
Was it Jamie?
It's a big, massive, it's a big, massive sweeping punch.
And my only concern was because Izzy comes from a kickboxing background, they don't slip punches the way boxers do, right?
So like the way a boxer slips punches, right?
Is you bend to one side and kind of forward and down, right?
Or bend to the other side and kind of down as well.
You can't do that against kickboxers because they can kick.
If I bend like this, I'm closer to that motherfucker's foot.
So the way that they avoid punches is leaning back.
And if you notice in the fight, the way Izzy was avoiding that looping right hand was by leaning back away from it.
Okay, yeah.
I mean, that's how he caught the knockout, too, if I'm not mistaken.
100%.
But he backed up.
They went for the overhand right.
He backed up a little bit and then they called him and that's when he stumbled and he got all over him and that was a wrap.
So exactly, exactly the sequence was Whitaker throws a jab, which Izzy is trying to time.
It connects with Izzy, but it actually pushes Izzy back away from the overhand right.
The overhand right goes past him and then Izzy catches Whitaker with a right hand.
Excuse me.
And then they trade hooks.
Now, trading hooks mean they both throw hooks at the same time.
Izzy connects with Whitaker.
Whitaker's like six inches away from Izzy's chin.
Like Izzy's distance was just perfect the whole fucking fight.
Locks in night night.
Get fucking sat the fuck down, dude.
It was over.
But that's what I was concerned about, man.
I was concerned that there was going to be the only thing was if he catched them with a wild looping right.
Now, here's the thing: when you throw a looping right hand or an overhand right, it takes longer to get there.
The closest distance between two plays is a straight line.
It's not a curve.
And Izzy was seeing this thing come from a fucking mile away.
Were you guys seeing it?
Oh, for sure.
Dude, the guy would switch.
His eyes was locked.
As soon as he swung at him, his eyes was locked in.
And then you could see there's like a slight pause right after that hook is thrown.
And you see the wide opening.
And that was all she wrote.
I like Izzy throwing more hooks.
This is the most like hooks that I seen him throw.
Like he would double up with his hook, but he knew he had the distance advantage, and that's what was catching him.
Honestly, if there was 15 more seconds left in that first round, it might have been over in the first place.
If there was five more seconds, it might have been over in the first.
I mean, he was on his ass, gone.
Yeah.
And luckily saved by the bell.
But yeah, he catches him in that second.
And dude, it's so interesting watching how the styles end up working because in boxing, the reason you don't lean back like that is because once you lean back, you can't go any further.
Right.
Right?
Like the reason why Ali got his jaw broken by Frasier is because Frazier waited for Ali to lean back and then lunged in with the hook.
So you faint and then wait for the lean.
Now, once you've leaned, you can't go anywhere.
I got you locked.
Right?
So, but Izzy, he was so fucking agile.
It was great, man.
And he just.
I was wondering why he was leaning back.
I didn't think about the kickboxing thing because I was like, yo, that just seems like more effort.
It's just slower.
It's everything.
Boxing.
Quick slip.
This is a full lean back.
And I was like, why is he doing this?
100%.
It's avoid those kicks.
I was asking the kickboxing coach because I would have trouble throwing kicks actually because I'd be kind of leaning forward as boxers do.
And then you kind of like stunt your own kicks.
And then they would tell me, don't lean over to miss these punches.
You're just leaning closer to a fucking knee to the face or like a kick to your head.
Can we talk about for a quick second?
Yeah.
Can we talk about John Jones for a second?
Did you see what he was tweeting before the fight?
What was he tweeting?
So I think in a roundabout way, somebody asked Izzy about, you know, a potential John Jones super fight or whatever.
And Jones goes on this big old tweet spree.
Don't ask me to quote it word for word, but he ends it with, you keep trying to hype yourself up to fight me, and I keep convincing myself to make you my bitch when it finally happens.
Right.
Right.
The fact that he was even concerned with a dude in two, what, two lesser weight classes?
What is he, middleweight?
John Jones is light heavyweight.
Yeah, yeah.
So one weight.
So that's one way class.
Yeah, yeah.
Boom, there is.
By the time this kid gets his confidence together, I'll probably be ready to be in the heavyweight division.
I need to wait till 2021 to start believing in myself.
Okay.
I sense concern.
Oh, he's completely like.
But look at that.
He doesn't give, he doesn't even give, he doesn't give, he doesn't give DC this much.
He gives nobody in the division that much attention at all.
Barely tweets at all.
And look how corny this is.
Like, is there anything cool about that statement?
Is there anything funny about it?
I'm not going to sit here and act like I'm not a John Bones fan.
I'm a fan of his work.
But I just see it as a face of the company.
No, no, he's not.
I just don't even get the tweet.
How is that shit talk to say, oh, you know what?
When you're ready to fight me, I still won't fight you.
I mean, listen, DC said it in the post-fight, and he was just like, yo, it might be sour grapes because he doesn't fuck with John Bones or whatever.
But at the same time, he's like, all right, like, yeah, Bones, you're bigger than him, but that's about it.
Like, he's just as here's, he's just as talented.
He's just as this.
Here's where it gets interesting.
Yeah.
Here's where it gets interesting.
If Jones can find a way to get the fight to the ground, I think Jones has like a pedigree in wrestling.
Yeah, he's very good.
Again, I don't know wrestling.
And we don't know how great Izzy is at wrestling because no one's been even able to get him down.
He's just crazy nice.
So real quick, was Whitaker because I heard on the commentary that I watched, he felt confident that he could outbox Izzy.
So it seemed like I couldn't tell if he chose I want to box or if he was trying to wrestle and Izzy just wouldn't let him get killed.
He chose to box.
He thought he could drop him.
He thought I could knock him out.
If he decides to wrestle, do you think that fight goes differently?
Nah, because he has to get in to wrestle.
And if you want to shoot on Izzy, you want to deal with some knees.
You deal with some feet.
You better be ready.
So now, I'm not saying that you can't.
So the difference within Jones is Jones is 6'5, right?
So now, you know, did you see all that distance between Bobby Knuckles?
I keep calling Bobby Knuckles, but Whitaker, Robert Whitaker's punches in Izzy's face.
Like there's Izzy who just had controlled the distance beautifully.
Jones can limit that distance, right?
Just out of the fact that his arms are long too, right?
That being said, the bigger the fighter, generally the slower they are.
So if he's evading punches from a smaller fighter that can throw much faster, he's going to be able to evade from a bigger fighter.
There's just more power with the bigger fighter.
Listen, there's no doubt that fighting John Jones is going to be harder than fighting Robert Whitaker.
Oh, for sure.
But the way that he smoked Robert Whitaker, and people sleep on Robert Whitaker.
This guy was a fucking monster.
Son, before everybody knew what Izzy could do, like I was talking to Brendan Schaub.
Now Schaub is like, yo, this kid's the truth.
Dude, I was texting Rogan about it.
Rogan goes, he's already one of the best ever.
Yeah.
Wow.
I got to text Izzy that for a while.
I think he said about this.
He's already one of the best ever.
Not middleweights, just best ever.
Skills.
So the question with Jones is this, though.
This is where it gets interesting.
This is what I would do if I'm Izzy, right?
I take two more fights in middleweight, right?
Smoke this Paulo Costa bum, right?
Matter of fact, if it's me, I wouldn't even fight Paulo Costa.
I'm only fighting people that speak English.
He's not making me no money.
We can't sell this fight.
You can't sell this fight.
Right?
Talk to me now.
Talk to me now as execs.
The three of us are UFC execs.
We're sitting down there.
Or we're Izzy's management.
We just made a brand new star.
We just got our black Conor McGregor.
We got black Conor McCarthy.
Whatever the fuck are you going to do?
We got Black Connor McGregor that's actually way more likable.
Connor's not really that likable.
He's just undeniable.
He was undeniable.
He was undeniable.
Now you have a guy who's undeniable.
Connor McKay was likable.
Conor Mars T.O.
He was coggy as fuck, but he was so good.
You kind of had to respect it and you liked it or you hated it, most hated it.
No, but that sells fights because that's Mayweather.
Exactly.
No hunter sells fights.
100%.
But they stop selling the fights when you lose.
And don't get me wrong, people will pay to see Connor again, right?
But if he keeps losing, money is going to go down.
But now you have, imagine Mayweather was likable.
Listen, I'm not going to put him in this shoes, but there's a difference when you're Ali, right?
Like, Ali did the impossible, and people liked him.
Yeah.
At the time, did they like him?
I don't know about the time.
No, no, no, no.
His people loved him.
He's broken for keeping the NFL thing going.
He's Patrick Mahomes, yo.
Hey, mad talented.
Everybody loved this motherfucker.
Yeah.
Hey, yeah.
Man, people who know shit are saying he already wanted the best ever.
That's Patrick Mahomes of MMA.
I can see that.
I can see that.
That makes sense.
He's mad likable.
Way better voice.
Yeah.
Yes, all the other things check out.
So, what I do is I have two more fights in middleweight against really good guys.
Don't get me wrong.
But they got to be able to speak fucking English and they got to have some swagging attitude about it.
Because I need you to sell this fight with me.
I'm not selling this fight by myself.
I want every fight to be a spectacle.
They're talking shit.
I want country versus country.
Remember, boxing matches, Mexico versus Philippines, and they're both talking shit like we don't know if there's a difference.
You're the same to everybody.
But whatever, they're going at it.
I go two more at middleweight.
I let John Jones get a little older.
John Jones already passes prime.
Yeah.
He's a little bit older now.
And he's hittable.
He was always hittable.
John Lowe's going to get hit.
He's going to get hit.
The only thing, and DC said this on the shout out ESPN Plus on the channel.
But let me say this.
He's basically saying, like, the reason why John Jones is so hard is that he's so big and he drags you.
So he's such a good wrestler.
Yeah.
It feels like somebody's dragging you down.
Yeah.
And eventually it wears you out and then he hits you and then it's done.
And DC said that in DC is a Olympic wrestler.
Wrestler.
So like DC said it, he admits it.
It's the real deal.
So what happens is I go, I let John Jones age up a little bit.
I let him get a little.
And then what I do is I have Izzy fight him after two more fights in middleweight, where you're already the biggest in the fucking sport.
You take John Jones out of the sport.
You retire John Jones, essentially, because you retired Silva.
Now you retire the next great of MMA, right after Silva, which was John Jones.
You solidify yourself as the third one of them.
The next one.
Exactly.
After that fight, I put you up against Canelo Alvarez as an absolutely.
That's what I was thinking.
One boxer.
I was trying to figure out one boxer.
But you got to build to it.
You have to be ubiquitous with fight sports, right?
You have to be so fucking big that we're willing.
Now, we're willing to watch it.
Now, here's the difference between Conor McGrere fighting Floyd and Izzy fighting Canelo.
Izzy's got nine pro boxing matches under his belt.
Oh, Izzy can fight better.
Izzy's a better boxer and more experience.
Yes.
And he did regular boxing.
Nine fights.
I think he was nine and one or maybe eight and one or something like that.
So he's fought real boxers already.
Canelo, not as good as Floyd.
There we go.
That's true.
So now you have them go at it.
Hopefully, Canel speaks more English by then, and it's possible where he can get it going.
And you have this fucking under zone.
Put that shit on the ESPN plus.
Who gives a fuck?
Let them partner up on it.
They found a way to do it with Connor.
Yeah.
And Floyd, that is the next big fuck you money fight.
We're talking hundreds of millions.
Oh, yeah.
If things discussed, that's your Connecticut Floyd.
My only concern is, and you may know more than I am.
Sorry, to that point, if I'm Izzy, I just win or lose, I do one more of those mega fights.
Hopefully, it's a good fight.
And then I might be out.
Why fight more?
I made $100 million plus.
I'm good.
Izzy a smart guy.
Make some liquor, sell it like Connor.
I think you're talking about protecting his brain.
Make a Joel off, bro.
You got to have your signature Joel off and get the fuck out of here.
My only concern with your scenario, right?
I agree.
One more back in MMA, go out on a high note.
You can sell out the biggest stadium in Auckland ever or whatever.
I imagine by then they've already done the UFC Africa.
Yep.
Right?
You do the biggest thing.
They're going to do Nigeria.
They got to.
Of course.
And if Usman, put fucking Sadiq on there, put Izzy on there.
So here's the thing.
Usman and what's it called?
And Izzy should be able to carry their own card.
But there is a world where they go, do you guys just want to co-headline this?
And just fucking.
And just murder shit.
Like, let's do a fucking shit.
You transcend the sport at that point.
If it's these two, the two biggest fighters in Nigeria that are also the two best fighters in the world, and you're like, fuck it.
Fuck being the headline and we're just going to do this big fucking event for our country.
You transcend the UFC.
Who colonized Nigeria?
Fuck, you ask me history questions.
I don't know.
Britain?
How the fuck you don't know who colonized you?
You got to know your enemy, yo.
The British.
Jesus.
The British.
Why?
I'm asking you.
All I'm saying, put them against British fighters, make it some real, you know what I mean?
Like, let's go type shit.
I told you I'm half asleep.
Like, I'm not, I'm not all the way up.
Nah, yeah.
Transcending The UFC Event00:08:42
My only concern is my only concern with the Izzy fight for the Izzy scenario.
And you might have more knowledge on this than I do.
It's like fight mileage, right?
Like, Izzy isn't that much younger than John Jones.
He is, but only by like a year or two or something like that.
But Jones has more UFC fights, right?
But Izzy has had boxing matches, kickboxing matches, UFC.
Equal fight experience.
Equal, okay.
All right.
Maybe more fight experience for Izzy.
Total fight experience.
I mean, Izzy's had like 80 kickboxing fights.
Damn.
Keep in mind, though.
These fights are three rounds.
Right?
Boxing matches are 12.
Kickboxing stuff is usually like three, maybe five.
I'm not sure if it's championship, but like they're less.
You know, so it's like, and also Izzy's knocking people out.
Yeah.
So he's fresh.
Exactly.
But he's looking at the fight.
You should actually look at round mileage.
Got it.
Got it.
Right?
If you out, remember when Tyson was knocking everyone out in the first round?
He's like, I'll fight again in three months, four months.
That's what Izzy said I have to fight.
He's like, I'm fresh right now.
Like, I could do another fight in a while, but I'm going to chill.
I'm going to do this, this, that, and third.
But, like, yeah, he's, he's, you're right.
Round mileage instead of fight mileage.
Paulo Costa, in my personal opinion, needs to earn his fight against Izzy.
And you earn it not by wearing flashy shirts.
You earn it by talking some shit and getting people hyped.
Have a fight in your hometown where you just knock someone out.
Like, just do something to make me interested.
You make me interested in the fight, man.
Like, he's already...
Izzy did the best thing he could do is at his biggest moment calling you out.
Now you got to let people know who you are because everybody knows who he is now.
So now next time I see you fight, I'm like, all right, is this guy worth the shit?
And if he fucking floors somebody, I'm like, all right, I want to watch them two fights.
Paolo Costa against another guy who speaks English, not UL Romero.
He needs to fight against a guy who speaks English.
I think he should do one more fight against them.
Let's say do it in a month and a half, two months.
Throw him on a card.
He doesn't have to headline a card.
Just put him on the cards.
He has to finish that guy in spectacular fashion.
And it doesn't matter if it's a bum.
If we just see him knock someone out, we're going to go, you know, people have that recency bias.
They're like, oh, shit, maybe he's good.
Maybe he can beat Izzy.
Then you build the Izzy fight.
But right now, in my opinion, he hasn't earned it.
Have you seen him fight?
You're the casual.
I'm the complete casual, and I didn't know who he was until you said the name.
I saw him flick somebody off, and I was like, I don't know.
And then he said the name, and I remembered him talking about it a year and a half ago.
What he got to start doing, Izzy, as someone who we all love this guy, put your business hat on now.
Now you're a star.
Your boxing gloves got you there.
Your kickbox, whatever that is, your skill got you there.
Now let's start thinking money, real money.
As guys who want to see him flourish, go on.
I want to see him fight five more times, make $100 million, be the fuck out, man.
Get these Canelo fights and then be out.
Fifth fight should be $100 million.
Fifth fight, you should make the $100 million.
And then be out.
Yeah, yeah.
It is crazy how fight sports work is that your last fight, you'll probably make more money than all of your other fights.
Combined times.
Tenfold.
Combined times 10.
Isn't that crazy?
Like, McGregor ain't making 50 million.
How many fights are you?
How many times after the Mayweather fight, he was taking pay cuts.
He's like, he's never doing that shit again.
I mean, he made a fight.
He had to break off the UFC.
You got to thank Mayweather for that.
Mayweather really set that.
He's like, every single fight, he's like, nah, it's going to be more, more, more.
100%.
He had to break off the weight just to feed that fight.
Yeah, Connor.
He kind of had to give Dan a half.
Yeah.
That's why Mayweather's like, yo, you don't even own your business.
Like, don't even talk to me.
Like, Mayweather laughed when Connor was talking shit.
Crazy shit.
You got a daddy, bro.
I know who I paid, dog.
Searchlight publishing.
Come on.
Like, you made it a hot line and made it a hot song.
Like, you don't even own your shit.
So I can see why he doesn't talk to me.
I think it's a really cool thing to see.
So if Izzy fights Canelo, he's going to have to give Dan a half.
It depends.
I mean, this is where you get interesting.
This is where if I'm Izzy, you will have a contract upgrade coming, right?
There'll be a contract renegotiation or something like that.
And that's where you get your lawyer to carve out anything outside of MMA.
Now, the UFC has been very lenient with what these guys can do outside of MMA, right?
They're doing jiu-jitsu tournaments.
They're doing grappling, wrestling tournaments.
They basically said, okay, we're not going to strangle you.
You can go make your money at these little local shows.
That's fine.
We just want your MMA money.
So you basically go, well, make sure it's just MMA.
Carve out that little fight shit.
And then Dana don't got to get nothing.
Now, Dana's not stupid.
Dana's going to go, fine, you can do whatever.
I just want 10% of the person.
10% is better than 50%.
Yeah.
Yes.
And right now, it's probably in this.
Are you having these conversations with him?
I think.
Are you at liberty to say if you are?
No, no.
I think, I mean, we could talk about stuff, but I think it's one of those things where it's like, I want him to win first.
Let me tell you something.
I watched the replay.
He was insane.
I watched him win, dog.
Let me tell you.
I'm not going to hold you.
That dancing in the beginning, I was shook.
I was like, God, he's got to win now.
He can't do all that dancing and shit.
So I got such paranoid thinking that when he did that handstand with one hand, I'm like, please don't just think about it.
I saw the replay and I was like, bro, come the fuck down.
I already know he won.
I was like, what you doing?
Dude, he gets it in a way these other guys don't get it.
Robert Whitaker did a 40-minute open workout.
They always do an open workout to do some little promo.
The open workout isn't really a workout.
It's a promo.
So when Izzy goes out there, last big fight, he did the rocks.
He did the people's elbow.
This time, he does break dancing.
He does it back.
That is what goes viral.
And then your fight promo's done.
You don't need to be there hitting pads for fucking 30 minutes.
Go back home.
Drink some water.
Get into the sauna.
Do whatever you need to do to make weight.
Let me tell you something.
Nobody comes to see that shit anyway, bro.
No, they come out.
No, I mean, nobody comes to see you hit pads.
Exactly.
They just want to see you entertain.
I even think Floyd, when he would do the open workout like 24-7, he's going as fast as humanly possible.
It's not like a real workout.
Then get rid of the cameras.
Make a lot of sounds.
Make this shit look like I'm going 100 miles an hour.
And then let's go.
And I'm the casual and I'm just like, this guy is lightning.
And then they make all the cameras leave.
They kick everybody out of the gym.
Not everybody.
That's a weird gym because they'd let people just watch and get their ass kicked, but they kick the cameras out and then they torture him.
Floyd would get tortured in his workouts.
But he don't show that.
Oh, just like new guy every single round.
Four minute rounds, six minute rounds.
Excuse me.
The sparring sessions, 24 straight rounds.
Wouldn't even matter.
4 a.m. runs if he felt like running at 4 a.m.
My dad used to cover Muhammad Ali's fights.
And Muhammad Ali would do these open workouts.
He was so charismatic with all the trainers and not the trainers, the journalists and all and talking, everything like that.
Costello?
What was his name?
Howard Costello.
They had a great relationship.
But then what would happen is they'd kick all the journalists out and he would go into a back room and he would do like thousands of sit-ups.
But that's where he struggled.
And he never wanted to show the struggle.
It was only the success and the ease and the comfort.
And it's brilliant because what did we see?
And what do we remember about Ali?
Success, ease, comfort.
Yeah.
You never saw the sweat.
It's the greatest.
The greatest.
I've been meaning this.
It might not even fit here, but I, like a couple months ago, I watched a little bit of a replay of Ali Frazier.
Ali was grace, dude.
Dancing.
Beautiful.
Frazier looked like a fucking, I swear to God, you think a special ed kid got let out.
He would like stumble around.
And I was like, yo, how did anybody root for this guy over Ali?
Like, literally just like, like this.
And then just, I don't know.
It was man ugly.
And Ali was just, it was graceful.
Grace Wolves like watching fucking ballet.
Ballet, real shit.
It was a brutal ballet.
Yeah, sure.
That's a great way to put it.
Brutal ballet, man.
I mean, it was, it was next level.
His, like, we've never seen that since, to be honest with you, the type of like footwork and agility he had at his size.
Yeah.
Like, I mean, you would only see that in basketball players, maybe football players.
You'd only see that level of athleticism at that size.
And boxing never had work.
Yeah.
Son.
Like, people forget how Kobe has nothing on Ali.
Do you see Ali do the shift?
Yeah.
That's insane.
Quickest motherfucker I've ever seen with that size.
Unreal.
Graceful Brutal Ballet Fight00:02:34
So shout out to Izzy, man.
Hopefully, Izzy comes to New York and we'll shout it up.
We're going to be champ, undisputed.
Man.
Bring both belts.
Word.
Dasse.
Shout out to Duvall for making the ultimate anthem, man.
Because at the end of the day, he sung that shit right after.
Son, it is.
I mean, and that's genius because then Duval reposts it and Duval reposts it to 3 million people.
And now you have 3 million more people going, oh shit, he won.
What was the fight like?
And also, I like this dude because he knows he's fans of the same guy I'm a fan of.
100%.
I mean, like, think about how plugged in he is to like hip-hop culture that he was listening to Breakfast Club and Brilliant Idiots.
Yeah.
And then Flagrant 2.
Yeah.
Like before it was blown up in the UFC, like this is out there in New Zealand.
You know what I mean?
It's not like, not a kid is plugged in.
So, look, it was a very, it was a very cool weekend, successful weekend.
He went out and went through unscathed.
More than I can say.
It was inspiring.
I got fucked up this weekend, guys.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah.
I'll show you.
Do you have pictures?
Huh?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Can you get those up, though?
How long would that take you to get that up?
Okay.

Free Money With MyBookie00:15:58
I did not fight this weekend, but this is me.
Oh, fuck.
What the fuck happened?
Is that why you're wearing a hat?
There is a, for those of you guys that are just listening, I will describe it and then you guys validate this if I'm not making this up.
There is a two-inch gash on the top of my head.
Yeah.
Blood dripping down my head.
This is after I've watched this.
After I've watched this.
This looks like the Joker at Orkham.
Dude.
Real talk.
So, yeah.
So I fucking had a gash, a wound in my head.
Urgent care.
What happened was I walked into a poll while texting.
That's what happened.
I bet you were texting your girl, too.
No, she was with me.
Oh, wow.
So, what I was doing.
What kind of pole was that?
Was it a street lamp pole?
I'll break the whole thing too.
I wasn't texting my girl.
I was ignoring my girl.
And she thinks that this is karma for ignoring her.
We just did a workout together.
We're walking down the street.
I'm so hyped.
About Dizzy's fight.
Yeah.
I was actually texting Rogan.
I'm actually texting Rogan.
That's the text you get fucked up for.
Right?
I think I'm so into the text.
I'm not paying a lot of attention to what's going on in my surroundings.
And all of a sudden, this is what it felt like.
I just hear my girl go, oh no, watch out.
Right?
My girl goes, oh, no, watch out.
Right?
And I go, huh?
And the next thing I feel is my top jaw slam into my bottom jaw.
And then I make impact with the pole.
And I just turn around and I start walking away.
And my girl goes, oh, come here, come here, come here.
And in that moment, I use every ounce of compassion and empathy in my body to go, give me a moment, give me a moment.
Give me a second.
Give me a second.
You just want to find something.
You want to hit something.
Because I didn't want to say, get the fuck out of my hair, bitch.
Why don't you tell me there was a pole when I was walking down the street?
Why don't you tell me there was a fucking pole?
Okay?
You see everything?
You see everything, don't you?
You see my passcode, but I put it onto my fucking phone.
Use your peripheral vision for that, right?
Every time I put my passcode in, you can see the exact one because you'll be saying that shit out the side of your eye.
We're about the pole that I just walked into.
You looking at me as I'm ignoring you.
Come on.
How do you know I'm not, how do you know I'm ignoring you if you're not looking at me ignoring you?
Son.
You notice she was walking next to me.
Like, watch this dumbass walk straight into this fucking pole.
Watch this dumbass walk straight into this fucking pole.
And then when she saw I was about to walk into it, she was like, oh, well, watch my child.
She didn't raise her voice, son.
She didn't raise her fucking voice.
This is how she said.
She was like, she was like, oh, by the way.
Oh, by the way.
She looked like this.
She looked like this.
She was like, oh, perhaps, maybe, maybe you might take heed.
Excuse me.
You might be right.
It might be in your best of interest to take heed, Smash.
Jesus Christ.
I smashed into this pole.
I'm like, all right, fine.
At least nobody saw this shit.
My eyes looked like a little bit more.
Me and my girlfriend for you.
I'm struggling.
I'm like, it's me and my girl.
At least nobody saw this shit right now.
Son, broad daylight, right?
All the way on the west side, way west side, right?
Right, like one block from Westside Highway.
Nobody there.
I'm like, all right, boom, we're good.
I turn around and all I just hear is, I saw the whole thing.
Guy walks up.
He goes, I saw the whole thing.
Let me tell you something.
I would vouch for you.
I'm a site manager.
I'm a site manager.
I'm a site manager for this site we got going on with you.
I saw the whole thing.
You walked right into that fucking pole.
You slammed your head right into that fucking pole.
I would vouch for you.
You get 50 grand from the city easy.
You get 50 grand from the city easy for that.
Here's my car.
I will vouch for you.
Right?
I turn around to look at the poll because I'm like, how the fuck can I walk into a pole?
It was a parking sign.
First of all, the reason it split my head right open is you know the parking signs aren't around pole.
No, they got you.
You.
Yeah, yeah, they're you.
And it has little perforations in the middle of it.
Yeah, yeah.
So I hit the corner.
The corner?
My shit wide open.
And notice that the top of my head is split.
So you know I was texting.
Right?
I didn't like the one thing about having a big nose is you make contact first with the nose.
So like it's going to touch my nose and then I'm going to veer my head out the way.
It's like a puppy dog.
Exactly.
But my shit was down like I was a ram.
Like I was running into it.
Oh, God.
I go, I go, what the fuck was this pole?
How could I miss this pole?
No bullshit.
And I'm going to use my straw to describe.
This is how a sign looks and it says no parking or parking right here.
Yeah.
Where my finger is, right?
This was the pole.
The pole went up about three feet and then bent because a fucking car hit it.
Ah, gotcha.
And bent right across the whole sidewalk.
You got to get that money.
Get that 50 grand.
We'll fucking vouch for you, bro.
I'll fucking vouch for you.
Son, I don't know if I could do that.
I was the idiot.
I should.
Now, granted, the city shouldn't have that like that, but I should still walk, be able to put it this way: I would say.
You can't text Joe Rogan without worrying a pole is going to hit you in the face.
The fuck kind of city we live in.
If you get a text while drive, when the hell else are you going to text?
It's not.
It's Joe Rogan.
That's the baddest bitch in the podcast world.
And if he was going to sue, this doesn't help that he has a public podcast saying, oh, I was texting, not looking straight.
That kind of kills your case right now.
He said, I'll vouch for you, bro.
Yeah, but that kind of kills his case.
Like, I was not looking straight.
I'm a personal accountability guy, so I feel like it's hard for me to be like, oh, shut the fuck up.
Son.
Take the money, bro.
So he first went texting about something else.
Give $50,000, buy a Tesla, just to style on Alex.
Worth it.
Worth it.
Yo, yo, yo.
So we're talking about something else, unrelated, like work-related.
And then he just sends me the picture.
Oh, and this happened.
And I just see the gash.
I'm like, oh, shit, what happened?
He tells me I like uncontrollable laughter for about 10 minutes straight.
Like my abs were hurting.
Felt like I just worked out.
I knew it was.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
I knew it was.
This is a voice note on Andrew's phone, by the way.
This is the voice note.
Listen, I texted him.
I go, I just send him a picture.
I go, also, look, he goes, oh, shit, how?
I walked into a pole texting, and then I just get this as a friend at Andrews.
Can I tell you what that laugh is?
That laugh is he thought about every time he tried to talk to you and you were texting.
And he was like, that's what this motherfucker gets.
All the times he ignored me after I talked about work.
Then he asks, I say some shit.
I bet there's a hundred times where he said some shit to you about work and you were texting, and then you asked him later about that exact thing like he fucked up.
Yep.
Like he never brought it up.
I kind of know because he listened to it.
He knows.
I just know.
I've seen the dynamic.
You know what I mean?
Oh, man.
Hold on.
What were you saying?
I was thinking about texting.
I be texting a lot.
Boy, you be in your phone.
Son.
Doing your shit, and people will talk to you, and then you won't hear it.
You'll be like, What?
Son, he was doing exactly what he was doing to this girl.
Yo, and then you're yelling at them about the same shit they just brought up to you, like they never brought it up.
I'll be doing that.
You be doing that.
You are crazy.
Y'all see the hole in my head again?
It looks like someone removed the unicorn.
What if he's born the horn?
Split it a little bit.
Son, look at it.
They had to glue my fucking head closed at an urgent care.
How many stitches?
Any stitches?
No, just glue.
Just glue?
Yeah.
And I had to get a tetan in this shot.
Tetanus in this?
Tetan in it.
Oh, my God, dude.
That double N, that shit was hard for me.
Oh, yeah, that's me.
Yeah, I was the Tetanus.
Yo, you got jaundice.
I do look a little jaundiced, bro.
I'm olive, yo.
I'm olive.
Bro.
Yeah, that was a pick I got.
I was like, oh, it's the glue.
That's with it glued.
That's nasty, yo.
That's a big gash.
I was getting the money, bro.
I was getting the money.
Yeah.
I don't know if I could do that.
I mean, you would sue?
What?
You would sue?
I would, but we would have to take this down if you're going to.
Because this completely destroys your case.
I wouldn't lie.
I wouldn't lie.
I'd go in there.
I'd be like, listen, I was, this is what I was thinking about doing.
I was thinking about going, hey, that pole is bent and someone's going to hurt themselves on it.
Because here's the reality.
It might not be someone texting.
It could literally be someone just talking to their girl or looking at a building.
The poll shouldn't be bent across the street like that.
You could hurt yourself.
And let's be fair.
Cops are up and down that street every single day giving parking tickets.
So it's not like you ain't see that fucking poll.
Okay.
So I would basically go, yo, fix the poll.
And if I went back and a week later, that shit still wasn't fixed and you're still letting people get injured, I'd be like, all right, you're going to get sued now.
Because the only way you're going to fix it is if the money is there.
But it's more important to me that the poll gets fixed.
Oh.
I feel like I'm.
I feel my surroundings.
You know what I mean?
So 311.
And then check back in a week.
Yeah.
All right, boom.
But we would have to take this down, though.
Yo.
Because you can't sue with this.
Why not?
They're going to just be like, you were being irresponsible, not looking where you were going and not going to get out.
You were being irresponsible.
That's not like if you're in the car accident and you're texting.
Yeah, you're allowed to text and walk.
You're not supposed to have polluted.
People are going to throw it where you're going.
Son, it's like the bitch who ate drank the hot coffee.
It's like she knew it was hot.
She's still sued.
Yeah, but the coffee wasn't supposed to be that temperature.
Polls.
It was not supposed to be bent like that.
Poll's supposed to be true, but I think.
I kind of think your case is done.
But you never know.
I'm sure a good one.
But we're putting old episodes on Patreon at some point anyway.
We've been saying it for two years.
Yeah, that's not happening.
Guys, they are just waiting.
I know, like, this is one news institution that just has its stockpile.
You're just waiting to go.
Oh, you're going to be able to get it.
You're going to pull that trigger and you're just going to hear.
It's going to be a bunch of.
Was that Akasha's family members talking?
That was just a bunch of bleach that they can't actually replay themselves of maggots and a bunch of other stuff.
We good.
We never needed them all anyway.
So are you still shadow banned?
I'm back.
Yeah, I think I'm banned.
They try to take down another post of mine.
I think I texted you about it.
Oh, yeah.
The most recent joke I put up.
It's a little crowd work bit, whatever.
Try to take it down.
This time I appealed.
I got put back up.
But it's people like deliberately.
It's not spies, hon. Yeah, it's people deliberately reporting everything I put up.
You got a spy, son.
Can we say what your girl thinks of this?
Oh, she's down for the fight.
She's like, keep posting.
No, no.
Can we say what your girl is?
Oh, yeah.
What my girl's theory is?
Yeah, yeah.
She thinks it's other brown comics who are girl.
They told you.
Yo, I'm telling you.
They fucking tweeted it out one day.
They're like, yo, I'm telling you, it's going to cost you one day.
They probably started ganging up.
It's like, yo, every time this motherfucker posts something, get the fuck out of here.
My girl thinks I've been moving a little bit on social media once since I started putting up clips, and a lot of other Brown comics aren't quite having as much success.
And she thinks some of them are a little upset about it.
Does she have a specific?
She doesn't know who.
She doesn't have any theory as to who, nor do I.
But the reason.
Russell Peters or something?
Russell God, dog.
Oh, my God.
Shoulder would know.
Who fucks are Russell Peters?
The reason why it's curious with you is that your bits aren't really that offensive.
They're not.
Like the ones that were taken down.
Not saying you don't have offensive bits.
You do.
But the ones that were taken down were pretty innocuous.
Yeah.
Like barely even had cursing.
Yeah.
So to me, that's targeted.
To me, that's somebody going, I don't fucking like this guy.
Let's go after him.
Yeah, it's something.
But the curious thing is this.
There has to be.
A certain amount of people that complain about something before it gets flagged.
So it's like a group of people.
Oh, yeah.
So now it's organized.
So now, if we really want to find out who's doing this, we just got to go to the people who are organized.
How many organized people do you know that would be interested in getting you removed from Instagram?
Are we still talking about Muslims?
I just said it was going to happen, man.
They told you.
They said this was happening.
They said he's talking too spicy about the Muslims.
Who said this?
Somebody tweeted it.
Remember we talked about it?
He said, I know a lot of Muslims that don't follow him just because.
And then he had like four followers.
I was like, you don't know anybody.
Damn.
If he had friends, you would know.
That might be it.
Might be it.
You might apologize to the Muslims, man.
Yo.
Public apologize.
Real talk.
Get on this fucking carpet down there.
It's not the right color.
It got to be green.
The color's got to be green?
It's always green carpet.
I don't know if that's a thing.
There's always green carpet.
Go face Mecca, which is probably towards Kaz's crotch.
Wow.
Wow.
Just because it's black and square.
It's Kaz's crotch.
Thanks for saying that.
Just because it's black, square, and only men can circle it.
Fucking suit.
God damn.
So, yeah, dude, it's a weird thing, but like, look, you know me.
I'm a psycho.
So you just got to tell me.
You know me.
I'll laugh him because he already knows.
He's like, no shit.
I'm a psycho.
So if you want to go down this fucking, if we want to like find who this is, I think it's quite easy to find who it is.
Oh, I want to know.
I love that shit.
So who's that organized?
First of all, we need to confirm how many people it takes to get something flagged.
That's number one.
Yeah.
Second of all, like I know when my tranny shit gets flagged, it's not any like group.
Yeah, it's probably not even a fucking tranny.
It's probably some straight group that's offended behalf and saw it on like the Explore page.
Right.
Right?
Right.
So that's completely random and unique.
Yeah.
This is targeted.
Someone's got to know you.
Someone's got to feel in competition with you.
Someone's got to be envious of your success.
I mean, we can get real, I mean, like, you already know right now, probably.
I mean, you might as well.
You got four people in your head.
Probably three.
Might as well at this point, bro.
We don't got to show the names right now.
There's like three people in your head right now that you're thinking of.
There's like three possibilities.
We can talk after because I'm not sure.
Envy Drives Online Hate00:02:58
I'm not thinking.
I'm not thinking anybody right now.
I think I'm thinking who he's thinking.
You are going to tell me right now you're not thinking.
Those people that I think you're thinking of are more successful than me.
So it's like.
No.
Who's he thinking?
I'm not thinking.
I'm not thinking.
I'm thinking one person, but I don't think you would.
I don't want you to say it just because you're going to be so many thousand miles off.
I just want to see how many thousand miles off.
Deck fan.
My man is dead fan.
That's close.
Carlos Mencia.
Go.
No, I'm not even going to say it.
All right, we're not going to put any oxygen in there.
I fuck with dude.
I won't put the oxygen out there.
All right, but I don't think he would go that far.
That's all I'm saying.
Whatever.
No, you're conversational.
I'm out rushmore of like Indian comics.
I'm there.
Am I there yet?
I'm thinking of it.
Don't put him there.
You're going to stop working.
I'm not like that.
He's going to stop working.
No.
I'm not like comics.
Fuck four.
I'm not even one.
There you go.
There you go.
A lot more work to do.
But still.
And you're only going to be dealing with the people that are at your level or below you.
Yeah.
Never punch down.
Because anybody way like the Aziz's of the world don't care.
Don't give a fuck.
They don't care.
It's not taking away their money.
Nothing's affected.
It's got to be somebody that was probably had more followers than you.
And then you started to get some traction with the clips.
And then maybe you surpassed them or got close.
Or your trend, you were trending up at a faster rate than they were trending up.
Son, we can have this figured out in fucking three minutes.
I just don't want to name this.
Let's talk after that.
I just wanted to name names.
I don't want to be wrong and then whatever.
What's the worst thing about being wrong?
No, no, no, no.
Well, I'm putting somebody else's name out there and then they look like an asshole.
If it's not them, then I don't know what to do.
Oh, we're not putting names out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's talk at.
First of all, I love this.
I know, I know.
This is fucking perfect.
This is killed this shit.
Did y'all hear the music that was going on in the background?
That was fucking beautiful, y'all.
That was beautiful.
You're in the People's Court, man.
I like this.
I hear him.
That was so good.
Okay, that's good.
That reminded Alex of his old job.
He'd been humming all day for eight hours a day, dude.
You think the black bitch that patted down Amber Geiger's hair and trying to make her feel better was just Alex in disguise?
Wow.
Hey, it's all good, baby.
I'll comfort you.
Don't you want anybody to do that?
You know what?
Let's start naming some names.
Son, on idiots, we were going wild on that shit, bro.
Did they cut it or did they keep it in?
I don't know.
I was half asleep.
You edit the episodes.
No, they just tell me after.
Oh, they tell you the times.
Yeah.
And then you just take the times out.
Comforting Amber Geiger00:15:06
You don't know what's in the times.
Gotcha.
But we were going off on that.
That Amber Geiger shit was funny, bro.
So, yo, Charlotte had a funny ass joke about it.
Because I was basically, you know, how like the brother hugged her?
Yeah.
And like the father hugged her.
And I was like, he's just trying to get some pussy, right?
And then Charlotte goes, she goes, nah, nah, nah, nah.
You know what that shit was?
I was like, what's up?
He goes, he pet her hair and he just snagged a couple hairs.
And there is a voodoo doll in the works.
He's Haitian, right?
They are Haitian.
That's very true.
Take it that bitch.
The game is me.
Tell you what, Haitian voodoo.
Like, the final step of that is a close embrace.
That's like the kiss of death in like fucking Italians.
I would like to be friends with him.
We'll be friends.
Yeah, all right, Tim.
He's looking at his grandma, like, which hair you need?
You need a bang?
You fucking frogs that rain are in her fucking house or some shit.
Tell me about that.
Oh, no.
Look, he got all that hair.
He got the clump, Shorty.
He got the clump.
Look at him.
Look at him.
He got the clump.
He knows emotionally.
He's not going to see what he's doing.
Emotionally.
He knows what he's doing, y'all.
Like, give me that shit.
Boy, Tyson Fury's about to wrestle.
Son.
Yo.
Wrestling's everything, Kat.
Yo, wrestling's popping right now, bro.
So, what does an open mic mean?
They're giving him a live mic to just say whatever the fuck he wants.
Okay, good for him.
So technically, he's wrestling tonight, which means by this time this comes out tomorrow.
I don't think he's wrestling tonight, but he'll be on Raw tonight.
Oh, sorry.
He's on Raw tonight.
He'll be on Monday Night Raw tonight.
We're going probably responding to Braun Strowman, who's this big dude.
He's a fan of this other shit.
Yeah, yeah.
And I'm assuming they're building up to like a WrestleMania or a Survivor Series, one of their big events, because you're not just going to blow a bag on Tyson Fury like that if you're not going to see him for like a big fucking event.
And the SmackDown debut that they just had on Fox was huge.
Right.
Shit ton of numbers.
They brought the rock back.
So everybody came back for that shit, right?
So they did one of these things, which is like they did it with Floyd and Floyd did WrestleMania with Big Show.
They did it with Ronda before she became an actual wrestler for them.
They do these little teases that lean to the fact that maybe in like in a month or two or several months or maybe in April where WrestleMania happens, that he's going to get in the ring and do something with them.
Something physical.
And it didn't look like Zan Geef.
Holy fuck.
That's wild.
Oh, fuck LeBron, man.
That was my guy when I was there.
He's a big motherfucker.
That's a big motherfucker.
Yeah, yeah.
Like his dad was like a fucking World Bear fan of some shit.
Yeah, some wild country motherfucker.
I like the move.
I think it's great for.
He's tailor-made for that shit, bro.
It's great for boxing, though.
Great for boxing.
It's great for boxing.
And I'm trying to see if there are people in the stands there.
Oh, yeah, there are.
Oh, yeah, they're at the stable center.
That was sold out.
They be selling out everywhere, man.
Yeah, they fucking kill.
Okay, so great for boxing.
I mean, if they're smart, they get Wilder in as well.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Hell yeah.
Shit.
Between that shit and fucking, they brought Cain Velasquez in.
I saw that.
Brock Lesnar.
Like, and motherfucker.
Cain Velasquez can wrestle.
Like, not like fucking Brock Lesnar wrestle where he's like kind of doing like his UFC shit.
Like, I'll talk about he does like backflips.
He does fucking, he does like the lucha shit.
He's like Mexican.
So like he came out with Rey Mysterio and yada yada yada.
Like he had this, he fought in this event called Triple Mania, which is like the Mexican WrestleMania, right?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And he rested.
He tweeted a clip with that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And he wrestled under the mask.
And he did all the fucking flips and Hurricane Ron is all this other, all this super athletic shit that you don't expect him to do.
So between that and Fury and Lesnar getting the title back and all this other shit, like wrestling's like in a really good mainstream.
Dude, all ring sports are killing it right now.
Yeah, yeah, it's fun.
Maybe we need the violence.
We love it.
I think that we need it.
I think that like...
We're gonna Republican in offense.
We love violence.
Any time we got one, this is a super violent country.
We act like we're Americans.
We act like we don't love this shit, dog.
I wonder if it's so violent.
I wonder if it's like...
Fucking, I saw Mason Rudolph get fucking knocked unconscious yesterday, and I'm like, you didn't see that shit?
What is that?
Oh, my God.
Backup quarterback for the Steelers?
That shit looks like damaging.
What happened?
They took his fucking face mask off.
He was gone, gone.
Like, do we have the clip?
Is the clip there?
He was out before he hit the ground.
No, sir.
I think Earl Thomas hit him, caught him from behind, and shit, and he just went limp.
He went like he froze up midair.
And before he hit the ground, he was knocked out.
And then Juju came to go check on him.
And Juju did like the church mom faint, like when he went to go check on her because he was not.
He was not there at all.
Holy moly.
He got crocked.
Just describe what you said.
It was Earl Thomas coming.
Oh, boy.
Boom.
So he got sandwiched.
He got sandwiched.
Yeah.
So there was some head contact going on.
Hopefully, those shows.
Yeah, he was gone.
Oh, my lord.
Gone, dog.
Holy fuck.
Yeah, he's dead.
I thought he was dead.
Yeah, his heart broke down.
Look at Juju.
Church mom.
Oh, shit.
Bro, the church mom faint.
I thought he was a goner.
Is that a real reaction or is Juju just being a wide receiver?
I mean.
That's a new word for D.Va.
Look at him.
Before he hits the ground, boof.
Watch.
Gone.
Yo, that's a dirty hit, B.
Oh.
Yeah.
That's a dirty hit.
And he got the ball out of the hill.
Not only is it helmet.
Wait a minute.
No, I don't think it's dirty.
No, no, no.
Watch.
Watch, watch.
Go back a little bit.
Go back a little bit.
Look at, and I'm talking about the linebacker that's coming towards him, not Carr that's chasing him.
Oh, okay.
Watch the linebacker coming for him.
Rudolph jumps to throw it, and the linebacker jumps with his head.
That's Earl Thomas.
That's the safety.
Oh, sorry.
So Earl, so Earl jumps with his head.
Watch this.
Rudolph jumps to throw it, and Earl jumps with his head and his forearm into his head.
I think we got to see it from the front, though.
Yeah, there's got to be a trend.
Because Carr could have pushed him into him as well.
But like, why would you lead with your helmet into helmet?
Why don't you just go for the chest or go for the stomach or something?
Initially, he was going to get it.
Watch it, watch it, watch it.
Yeah, keep going.
And he jumps.
Yeah, because he's trying to block the pass.
No, he didn't block a pass.
He warms up.
Look.
Oof.
Oof.
I don't know.
I think.
Rudolph might have jumped and that changed the drug.
No, but think about it.
The helmet caught the chip.
Yeah, he left with his helmet.
No, he led with his helmet in his forearms.
He didn't even try to block the pass.
Like, if he jumps and raises his arms like this, that's one thing.
When your arms are like this, you're not blocking nothing.
But why jump?
Why not just go for his stomach or go for his chest or some shit?
And he already got the ball out of his hand.
And I get it.
It's hard to stop at that point.
Especially your safety.
You're coming that far down and shit and he calls safety blitz.
They had to take off his face mask and shit.
They didn't want to fuck up his head.
He didn't like that.
They thought it might be his neck, so they have to be super kicked.
So they can't take off your helmet.
Oh, my God.
But apparently it looked kind of silly because the medical car broke down, so he had to walk off the field with no face mask like a 1920s.
Yeah, that was the one who said he got knocked into 1920s.
It's funny to laugh at because he was coherent and shit, but holy fuck.
When it happened, I was like, yeah, he's never playing football.
Dude, when he comes back to life, he's like, am I a punter?
That's what he looked like.
Dude, what is going on?
Not even the single bar.
I thought I played quarterbacks.
They should fuck with him.
They're like, dude, you were never a quarterback, bro.
You've been a kicker this entire time, dude.
Number two.
He's a suit over there.
He looked like a punter.
God damn, that was a hell of a hit.
I watched, wait, I think somebody posted, I guess they were talking about that, but I didn't see it.
And then the timeline was posting other shit.
And I saw the clip of when Schuster laid out Vanta's Perfect.
Perfect.
Did you see that?
This is from two years ago.
Two years ago.
Yeah, this is the get-back first.
This is the get-back.
And there was a short little screen pass thrown to, I don't know who, Brian.
No, whoever maybe.
Was it Le'Veon?
No, it was Le'Veon.
Yeah, it was a short little screen pass thrown to Le'Veon.
And Le'Veon's coming up the right side, and Berfict is going for it.
He doesn't see it.
And Schuster fucking lays that bitch motherfucker out.
And oh, man.
I mean, I'm talking shit like that guy wouldn't murder me.
But dude, it was nice to see a little payback.
Got to, man.
They get that receipt.
That's what people were saying.
They were trying to get Lamar Jackson back.
And that's when he fucking broke somebody's ankle.
What do you mean, get him back?
No, I mean, you know, you take a quarterback out.
The defense is always like, all right, well, we got to go and get him back or whatever.
I think somebody like, I don't know when the play was.
It might be in the fourth quarter and they're driving for that game winner.
And he broke somebody's ankles because you could tell somebody went low.
And you can't go low on Lamar Jackson.
He's quicker than fucking a fucking hiccup.
Browns had a bye week?
They play tonight.
They're playing the 49ers.
So if they win, they're tied for first place in the division, I think.
But 49ers are 4-0.
49ers not bad, bro.
I don't believe in them.
Why they just have weak stats?
Just still looks not great.
Like, he's still throwing a lot of picks.
I just don't believe in them.
But this running back is good, right?
The guy from, what is it, OU or something like that?
I forgot his name.
Wilson, Josh Wilson, I think his name is.
I don't know.
I have not paid attention to him.
I know they got Greg Kittle.
Greg Kittle is a good tight end.
Okay.
Richard Sherman's been looking good again as you know.
Fucking Sherman, man.
Fucking, you know.
How have they been winning?
I don't think they've played anybody on the West Coast.
They still have a win that impresses me.
I know their opening win is against Tampa Bay.
Can you look up, Eden?
Can you please look up Cordenan's schedule who they played so far?
Because I don't think they've had any wins so far that have impressed me.
I don't think.
I saw some stat about Patriots quarterbacks, and I think they were like 9-2 this year or some shit like that between Jacoby Brissette, Kobe Garrett.
Jacoby, the Colts, dude, I believe in the Colts.
I thought they'd be done without Andrew Luck, but Brissette is doing well.
Brissette is good.
And have you heard the rumors about getting Stephon Diggs?
Oh, no, I have not.
Apparently, the Colts want to trade for Diggs.
I heard he's on the trading block.
So they're opening games against the Bucs.
Okay.
They're waxing.
The Bengals who are trash.
Trash.
Then, what is that?
Is this Steelers?
No.
Steelers?
Okay, yeah.
Steelers who are one and four.
Trash.
And then tonight, the Browns who are on the floor.
Thump the bad team.
So if you thump two bad teams, you do what you're supposed to do.
Right, yeah.
But take him a Cowboys fan.
Thumping bad teams don't mean that much.
We've got to talk about it.
I was about to say we should talk about Chattanooga.
The Caz has been lighting up the timeline.
I like you've had very good stuff on the timeline.
What was it?
It's not fall.
It's not autumn until the entire timeline turns out.
It turns out the Cowboys.
It happens every fucking year.
I'll be staying out of Cowboys tweets when they're good and when they're bad because I know this ain't gonna end well.
Of course not.
Of course not.
See how hard it is to plan for the future.
And that's not even your team.
That's why I don't be tweeting, but I'll be out of it.
Don't put that camera there.
My gosh.
That's a new way of saying I'm scared.
Don't put the cameras on you.
And then all of a sudden, what?
So here's what I've been doing.
The science are right there.
Here's what I've also realized.
It's so fucking hard to win a Super Bowl.
Drew Brees is one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time.
He has won.
Aaron Rodgers, another one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time.
He has won.
If you're not Brady, it's real fucking hard to win a Super Bowl.
And I was also thinking about this guy on the ticket always brings us up about the Patriots.
Their entire division has sucked his entire career.
Right now, the Bills are 4-1.
With the Bills being four and one.
If you combine the other two teams, the NFC, AFC East, outside of the Patriots, the total win, four.
They are in the same division as the Dolphins and the Jets, the two worst teams in football.
Why is that an advantage?
Because you got to play them.
So you get basically four to six easy ones a year.
Now, once you get that, you got 10 games left.
So even if you go 500 in those games, which is bad, and the Patriots are a good team, now you're 11 and 5.
If you go.
But you still need to beat them.
No, no, I'm saying you still need to beat the top teams in the playoffs and the Super Bowls.
For sure, but it's easier to get homefield advantage.
And if you're the Patriots and you play in very cold weather and you're a good home team and you've got good fans, this is not to say they don't deserve six Super Bowls, but it is something that's like, oh, that's a thing.
That is a thing.
It seems like a way of discrediting success.
That's what it seems like.
And don't get me wrong, I think we all have that in us where it's like somebody is doing something differently than we are.
And instead of looking at ourselves and seeing what we can change, we find ways to discredit what they're doing so well.
So that's what I'm saying.
And I totally kind of agree.
And I'm a Jets fan, and I'm like, I know the Jets are terrible.
I know you can pencil in two wins against them every year.
But at the same time, it's like, yeah, there's something to the Patriots being so fucking good.
Like, you know, you're going to play them.
Yeah.
Like, you know, you're going to play them.
And they're taking not losing to those guys ever.
Exactly.
Like, even good teams have bad days.
The Patriots don't really have a ton of bad days.
And that's for sure.
Let's say maybe they have five Super Bowls without that and not six.
Like, that's what I would say.
Yeah.
I'd say they're still probably the greatest team ever, but it is a thing that's like, oh, yeah, you guys don't ever really have that.
It's like you got to bypass the first round every year.
Right.
And you usually get homefield advantage.
And they've gone on the road to beat the best.
They beat the Chiefs on the road.
To your point, they beat the Chiefs on the road in the AFC Championship game.
That's not nothing.
And Arrowhead's supposed to be a really tough place to play.
So it doesn't discredit their greatness.
I just think we have time to look for these things.
Yeah.
When you really get annoyed at that prolonged success.
Anyway, my overall point is: it's really fucking hard to win a Super Bowl.
Like, even now, if you're thinking about real NFC contenders, the Eagles are always there.
I think the Cowboys are still in the mix for the bottom of it.
But then you got the Saints.
You got the Packers who look fucking nasty all of a sudden.
Great defense too.
They got Aaron Rodgers.
You got the Seahawks, Russell Wilson.
You can't ever count him out.
Like, that's just four teams off rip that are contenders.
Real quietly, too.
Got to keep an eye on the Carolina Panthers.
Panthers, four and a half.
Look at Christian McCaffrey, Kyle Allen.
That fucking defense looks good.
Can we talk about it?
McCaffrey's probably going to be fucking.
I mean, between him and Mahomes and Russell Wilson, those are like the three MVP candidates right now.
But can we discuss this a little bit?
Is it me?
Have I been away?
Is he being like underappreciated?
Christian McCaffrey?
Yeah.
I would think so.
You would think a white running back would be the top story of every article in America.
And it's not like he's a, you know, you got the white quarterback, the white athlete jokes.
He's not like a gritty runner.
He's not a like, no.
He's been a girl.
Why would he say his 80s?
You literally described his run as great.
You've never heard that joke where it's like.
Oh, because white people are gritty assistants.
Christian McCaffrey MVP Case00:15:35
It's like, oh, he's a gym rat.
He's a coach's son.
They never just said, no, he's white and super fucking athletic.
He's a freak.
He's a freak of nature.
His dad was a beast, too.
Ed McCaffrey.
His dad was a beast.
He was in Prince College.
He was a man who was a man who has the Super Bowl ring.
Oh, I remember Ed McCaffrey.
That was his dad.
That's his dad.
Elway?
And I want to say Elway quarterback of the Broncos Shannon Sharp.
You know what's funny?
This exact conversation, I remember watching something about Ed McCaffrey two decades ago when Shannon Sharp and him were both in the Broncos.
Shannon Sharp said, I'm not going to try to, I know, I don't want to make this a racial thing, but if Ed McCaffrey was black, he'd be a top five paid wide receiver in the NFL.
Facts.
But it is interesting because you don't see the racism is everything Twitter going crazy about the lack of coverage on Christian McCaffrey.
He's a cheekly fucking freak athlete that's white.
He studies so hard.
Oh, man.
He's a coach's son.
Literally, every, every, it seems like every week, Deshaun Watson has a clip about him knowing what he should know as a quarterback.
Wow, I would watch that.
What a genius.
This guy knows what defense is.
Like, yeah, he's also a quarterback.
Does he know where a DB is supposed to go on zone coverage?
He speaks so well.
He's so well spoken.
Exactly.
So it feels like, I mean, which I get it, though, because I'm like, if you're a pro athlete and you get asked the same thing.
You'll see him make a soft fist again to describe a DB going better.
What is this fist?
Put that in some gay guy's asshole.
That's what that posture is.
The point is, clearly, Christian McCaffrey being a white running back.
If we really want to support minorities on this podcast, there is no greater minority in sports than the white running back.
White athletic running running back.
Wait, it's not Michael Stock.
That's right.
He's not powering through the tackles.
No, he's blazing through, motherfucker.
This is pure, all-purpose.
White speeching.
White lightning.
White lightning.
It's just pure white lightning.
And not touching any stories.
He has more combined yardage than any top wide receiver, any top running back in the game right now.
Ezekiel Ellen.
I saw some stat who was like, he has more scrimmage yards than Todd Gurley, Zeke, and Melvin Gordon.
I didn't say Melvin Gordon.
Melvin had played the last game.
But that's been the thing about Christian.
Since college, they said the same thing about him.
It was like, yo, if he was black or didn't go to Stanford, he wins the highest.
Like, he was a high-speed finalist.
Like, he probably could have won the eyes, but I forgot who won that year.
I'm pretty sure it was probably deserved.
Why do you think?
So, I think the interesting discussion here is: one, why is he not getting so much?
Excuse me.
Why is he not getting so much press?
What do you guys think?
Well, I think it's starting to, I think it's starting to pick up now.
Here's what the, I think it's the reverse of Jean John Deshaun Watson thing.
I thought like Deshaun Watson going 15 or whatever it was was so fucking crazy to me.
And who's the quarterback of the Bears?
Mitch Trubisky went to number two overall, and the Bears traded up to get him.
They passed on Pat Mahomes, they passed on Deshaun Watson.
I think the idea that a black quarterback isn't athletic blows our mind.
And the idea that a white quarterback is athletic, we're like, holy fuck, what a bonus.
You know what I mean?
With running backs, I think it's the same thing.
If you're white, we're just like, ah, he can't be that athletic.
It's like being a black quarterback.
Like, he's probably not that athletic.
He's probably just like fucking studies a lot and like he's in the right place at the right time.
He's like Cole Beasley or something.
I mean, it's starting to change a little bit.
But why do you think that there hasn't been the press?
I understand why he hasn't.
There's no, that's not sexy.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Even white people don't care.
White people aren't like, hey, we're athletic too.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know what I mean?
They don't give a fuck.
But on top of that, it's Carolina.
You know what I mean?
Like, this story, the big story there is Cam Newton.
Kyle Allen.
Kyle Allen.
Like, is Cam Newton going to play when he comes back?
Like, never mind the fact that they're 4-1 right now.
Never mind the fact that this guy is.
I think they're 4-2, and I think Cam was 0-2.
Right.
So they're 4-0 since Cam goes down.
They're in the midst of that division.
That division's tough.
Cam finna get Drew Bledsoe without this bitch.
He's cheat.
I don't know how you...
If he's ready next week, you're not putting him in.
You fucking crazy?
If Kyle Allen loses a couple in a row, all right, maybe let's go back to Cam.
Is Kyle Allen white?
Yeah.
Dude, that white-on-white connect, bro.
That's what it is, dog.
White don't white connect, bro.
Like, dude, Christian McCammon's like, I don't know what it is about this quarterback, but I'm just saying.
Because Cam Newton is handing Christian McCaffrey off the ball, and then he's looking at this white guy, and he's like, should I just run it?
What is the point of giving this guy named Christian McCaffrey the ball when my name is Cam Newton and I can do exactly what he does better?
I just think Cam's, Cam's, wow, dude.
He took so much damage.
Cam hadn't been the same.
Dog, I was the biggest Cam Newton fan.
Like, I would literally, it was a bad thing.
He was all broke.
I loved Cam.
Yeah, I would make a joke about, like, I would just say the most ridiculous things about Cam because I loved him.
But he ain't been the same since that Super Bowl.
Yeah, bro.
Something about that shit.
Then he started dressing like fucking Anjum.
I'm out here.
The whole weird thing.
He's never the same.
He was never the same.
And now I think his body's broken or whatever.
His body's starting to portray him a little bit.
He said when he did that whole weird ass YouTube video when he's like answering like why he's sitting down or whatever.
He's like, I've come to realize that if I'm 80%, I'm at 80%.
I can't help my team.
I'm like, bro.
Everyone in the league is playing.
This is from the Hermes CTE line.
You know, Al, do you have any pictures of Burning Man of us at Burning Man?
I don't think so.
I did this shit in Burning Man.
Burning Cam.
I did this shit in Burning Man, putting the fucking head scarf?
But the head scar over like a babushka, like the Russian chick, under the hat?
Under a.
Where is?
No, I had an actual bandana.
I'm not going to hold you.
Blaze is all right.
Cams?
The Blaze is all right.
Yeah, he don't need all the blazer.
All this other shit, I don't know.
Can't do it.
Anyway, we'll go find it.
But it is a.
You know what you weren't thinking about at Burning Man?
Being an NFL quarterback.
No.
But I was getting equal amounts of brain damage.
I'm pretty sure.
I'm pretty sure.
Poor Cam, though, man.
He was like, what was it?
How long ago was this MVP?
MVP season three years ago, I think.
Jeez.
Somebody said he feels like that sometimes, guys.
I'm like, yeah, he's just.
Oh, my God.
They follow us close.
Yeah.
And you know, it's funny that white-on-white connector you're talking about.
Yeah.
Because you got Brady and Edelman and Welka.
Yo, Brady loves his white boys.
So there might be a thing today.
Might be a thing.
Might be a thing.
Bro.
Let's not hype it up, though.
Bro, you need that white on white.
He's been balling, man.
You need that white on white.
Kyle's been balling, bro.
Look at that.
Was that Burning Man or is that when you were a pickup artist?
Where is this?
It's Burning Man.
Son, nah, but they don't got the, what's it called?
But I do look like Cam.
Yeah, the hat.
No, but I had a thing.
Maybe I'll find it.
Whatever.
I'll look for it later.
Oh, yeah.
You need that water out there.
You're in the desert, son.
I miss that shit.
I wish I fucking went this year.
I mean, I'm grateful everything we got going on, but I missed that.
You said Adidas commercial?
And James Harden?
No, what is this?
Go on because I want to talk about the Rockies.
They put out, oh, right.
Put out a commercial saying, you know, to be different, you got to talk about how different he is.
And the big thing is they called him the best scorer ever.
It's like, if you're going to be the best scorer ever, would you rather be unique or be the same or some bullshit or whatever?
But like, yeah.
I think he's the best scorer ever.
You think he's the best scorer ever?
I mean, are we talking about, like, are we talking about times where black people were playing against black people or they were playing against like Jewish guys?
I mean, I'm like Will Chamberlain.
I think he's better than Wilt.
Okay, so Will Chamberlain was scoring 100, but he was scoring 100 against Finkelstein and like fucking, you know.
Sounds like a law firm.
Yeah, he was scoring 100 against the guys who ended up being his agents, right?
So if we're talking about modern NBA, it's really Jordan, Kobe, KD.
I don't put KD up there.
I'll put KD up there.
I don't.
Oh, he's seven feet tall.
I don't put him up there.
Katie's in there.
Katie's in there.
He won like how many scoring titles has he won?
Like four in a row, five?
I mean, some wild shit.
I don't put him up there.
He's in there for me.
And I think it's reasonable to put him there.
I just, I just want to.
I think Harden had the most prolific scoring season I've ever seen.
Yeah.
I'm hard.
I think he average.
34.
Didn't Jordan average 38?
Jordan averaged, I think, 36 one season.
Yeah, he had that 36 season.
I would say.
You got to put KD in there, so.
KD's in there.
All right, fine.
You want to put him in, then put him in.
Well, MJ averaged 30 for his career.
Yo, he averaged 30 for his career.
I would go past scoring, though.
If I'm talking about, if I'm talking about James Harden, I would say he's arguably the best offensive player ever.
That I could see before scoring, to be honest.
Ah, because scoring is such a specific.
And scoring, there is...
Michael Jordan literally averaged more points a game one season than James Harden's best, but Jordan and Kobe couldn't pass like Harden.
Yes.
Kobe put up 81.
James Harden, I don't know what his career is.
He's probably in the 60s.
He averaged 36 last year.
Damn.
Who did?
Harden.
That's a lot of buckets.
A lot of points a year.
I mean, you know, and I guess what...
That is more than Jordan, I think.
Jordan's 35.
His career high.
He does take an inordinate amount of free throws a game.
That's his career.
We want the career.
One season where he averaged like 36 points a game.
I want to say it was 88.
Scroll down.
Scroll down, Eden.
Scroll down, Eden.
I want to say it's 88.
Click more, up Scroll to the right.
38.
To the right, to the right.
Yeah, I thought it was 38.
37 a game.
37 again.
Yeah.
And 35 a game.
And I think he had 32.5 and 8 assists one year.
And this is bully ball.
This is like hand shaking allowed.
All that shit.
Wow.
32, 8, and 8.
33, really.
That 88 year was...
Oh, my gosh.
That's when the Jordan Forrest came out, too.
Fucking the Chicago All-Star Game, free throw line.
That's like the Jordan year.
That is the year that made him the fucking icon that year.
32, 8, and 8.
That's ridiculous.
Does he win a championship?
No.
No, he didn't win his first championship.
To the 90s.
Interesting.
Wow, 32, 8, and 80s.
I mean, that's so close to the triple dub.
Anyway.
It's like, what's two rebounds and two assists?
Well, that's the thing is that we just require synergy.
Like, human beings, there's something about synergy and symmetry that we respect so much.
And like that triple double, while it's really no more important than 32,88.
I mean, a little bit more.
You know what I mean?
It's not that much.
49 and 9 than 31 and 10.
Yes.
I hated props.
We got that one more assist.
Who gives a fuck?
Yeah, but there's something so clean about it.
Best scorer ever, though.
I don't know, man.
Well, I think he's had one of the best scoring seasons we've ever seen.
But to call him the best scorer ever.
Look, I think it's not unreasonable.
But I also think it's a stupid goal.
Because what the fuck does it matter if you can't win?
Like, imagine being the best scorer ever, and it costs your team.
It's like being the best dribbler ever.
Yeah.
Great, man.
But if you're not winning.
Are you winning?
Yeah.
Maybe you should dribble less.
If what you're doing the best at doesn't help your team win, it hurts your team.
That's my point about Harden.
That's my gripe with Harden.
This is what you're stuck on, man.
You're still, you haven't figured it out yet.
And maybe it's still early, and maybe he can, but like, if what you're still talking about is your offense and being a better offensive player, dog, you don't get it.
To be fair, I don't necessarily put it all on him.
He did.
Mellow three-points.
He did run into the Warriors three straight years and they always end up going to the finals.
So it's like you're losing to the team that always ends up in the final.
So it's like, granted, if there's no Super Warriors.
Yeah, I don't care either.
I think Hardin gets there.
I think he gets one.
Nobody says that about LeBron.
Yeah, but he always loses to the Warriors.
Don't they give a fuck?
You lose to champions.
So you're not a champion.
Right.
You lose to champions all the time.
You're not a champion.
Gotcha.
100%.
I mean, that team.
I think we should talk about the Rockets because the Rockets owner, Daniel Maury or Moray.
GM.
Daryl Maury's the GM.
Sorry, the Rockets GM, Darrell Maury.
Moray.
Moray?
Maury.
Morey.
That's how I always hear it.
The Rockets GM, Daniel Maury.
Daryl Bores.
The Rockets GM, Daryl Maury, is fucking up the bag.
Oh, God.
My man is fucking up the bag.
Something must have happened.
You cannot be this stupid.
There is no way.
And let me tell you something.
I know GMs and I know presidents in the NBA.
And the GMs and presidents that I know are incredibly intelligent and competent people.
You don't get to that position without exemplifying decision-making skills.
And Maury's highly respected as a GM.
As a GM, highly respected.
So I don't believe what he did was an accident.
Now, what he did was he tweeted out support for Hong Kong in the conflict that they have going on over there.
That's what that was.
I was in London.
I saw Mad China's protesting something.
I didn't know what it was about, bro.
I couldn't understand them.
Who gives a fuck?
Let them do the thing.
Whatever.
It is what it is.
And we don't even have to get into what it means.
It doesn't matter.
Point is China and Hong Kong are beefing.
Okay.
China is massive business.
The biggest market in the NBA, not in America.
Not in America.
But massive business specifically for Houston.
Obviously, they had Yao.
Obviously, the Houston Rockets have changed their logo and jerseys to look more Asian.
First of all, I didn't even think about it.
Oh, Houston's a huge.
Yeah, it makes sense.
No, I see it now.
Now it's completely different.
They even put some signature jerseys that are justin'.
They became the Chinese team, meaning like everybody in China that likes the NBA is like, we fuck with the Rockets.
And if you ever notice, there is no Chinese basketball player that had any sort of anything in the NBA eventually played for Iraq.
Of course.
Why?
Because you sell them jerseys easy.
They gave Jeremy Linda bag because they're like, listen, we're going to make this up with the Chinese rights.
We're going to make this up selling shit to China.
Blah, blah, blah.
So this guy that I can't pronounce his name.
Daryl Murray.
Daryl Murray tweets out support for Hong Kong.
Now, you're the GM.
You don't have any stake in the race.
If you're Daryl Chen, right?
If you're Chinese, if you're of Hong Kong descent, Daryl Chen, and you want some support for what's going on, like, you really care that much about democracy?
Are you tweeting about antitrust shit in the States?
Are you tweeting against Jeff Bezos?
You work for a billionaire who surely is doing things to interrupt the democratic process.
That's without a doubt.
Like, that's another, and this is totally separate from, I don't even want to stay that long on it, but you know, I find so fucking funny is that we laud these like billionaire, like, billionaire owners of companies, right?
Like Walmart and shit.
Like, they're these like capitalists that are like upholding the economic growth of America, right?
Two Different Gender Beliefs00:04:48
And we punish the workers that start unions, right?
To like protect their rights, right?
But the reality is, is if you're a company, you're using all the resources that you have and all the money that you have to essentially get as much leverage as you can on the workforce.
Yep.
So all a union is, is going, well, none of us have a lot of money, but all of us together have a lot of money.
So why don't we use that and leverage it against the company?
It is the exact yang to the yin or whatever it is.
It's the exact evil.
It's a pain in the ass.
I don't mean to say evil.
It's just like a pain in the ass when you got to deal with union politics, but it's like you can't escape it.
And don't get me wrong, the extremes of both are bad, right?
Like a bad fucking business owner sucks and a bad union owner fucking sucks.
I don't want to get too long into it.
All I'm saying is like, it's funny the shit that we're like, we're force-fed and that's how we think about the world.
It's funny because like, you know, the NBA is looked at as this progressive, you know, league.
I mean, it's really anti-NFL.
Exactly.
Like, I mean, as opposed to like NFL, whatever.
Like, they're like the woke league or whatever, right?
Yeah.
And it just kind of goes to show you, like.
The rest of y'all sleeping on how evil these motherfuckers are.
Yo, that's so fucking true, bro.
They let you have your little term woke because you don't see what you don't see what we're doing.
They're looking at you like you sleep.
Yeah, you don't know what you're sleeping on.
You know, a lot of people ain't fucking that woke.
Like, trannies ain't even that progressive when you think about it.
Like, I was thinking about this.
Like, trannies only believe in two genders.
I don't get it.
Like, the real woke motherfuckers believe there's how many genders?
10.
63.
63.
These trannies out here, like, conservatives, like, look at woke ass.
They're looking at his face trying to compete.
I don't know.
63 genders.
I don't know what they're...
What are they called?
Name two more.
Bro, I can't.
I don't give a fuck.
I don't believe that.
Listen, there's only two fucking genders.
But the point is, is that these super progressives are like, no, there's 63.
But trannies are like, no.
There's just two.
That's why you're changing into the other one.
Nobody changes into non-gender.
No one cuts their dick off, but like, I don't know, gets to, I don't know.
You know what I mean?
Nobody really.
Nobody goes, I'm transitioning into a sapiosexual.
Right?
Yeah.
Like, it's kind of funny that, like, trans are bigoted by today's progressive standards.
Fair.
Right?
Valid.
I was wondering this.
Alex, you talked to Weezy a lot.
She says she's...
No, I mean, this is all the reason why.
That's Wheezy's your transition.
She named like herself as like five different things, right?
Or some shit like that.
Oh, I don't care when she's like, well, I remember she said something about this.
Nah, yeah, yeah.
But when she gets in that bag, I just, I don't know.
I turn it off.
Cis males.
My thing, I just don't.
They got trans and trans with an asterisk as two different gender.
Can I ask a serious question?
Can I ask a serious fucking question, please?
Trans and masculine.
I need to notice.
Yeah.
Cass.
If gender is a social construct, mean completely created by society, why do you need to transition to something that's not real?
That's a valid ass question, yo.
So just by admitting that you feel like another gender, you're saying there's only two genders and gender is not a social contract.
Yo, trans really out here are bigoted.
Son, trans and like the like the most conservative, conservative really got a lot in common.
Oh, yeah.
What's other?
Both of y'all hate who you are.
Them.
I'm like, all these things.
I'm like, okay, I guess somebody can explain what most of these, but somebody's just other?
Yo, that's a funny bit.
The idea that like trans and conservatives are actually the same people.
They both believe in, they both believe in two different, what is it?
They both believe in two different genders.
They're not fucking with that like million gender shit.
They both believe in something that's not real.
God and trans stuff.
Drake Kanye Gender Views00:15:06
Their wives are ugly.
I was just joking.
Nah, I think conservative wives are probably better than liberals.
Oh, I was just talking about politician wives.
Oh, okay.
That's what's up.
That's my favorite bit on the Bill Burr special.
Is it conservative presidents know how to keep their wives in check?
Oh, my God.
The Michelle Obama tour?
That shit is so funny.
She got an arena tour about not having a job.
What does a first lady do?
He goes, conservative wives know how to.
He goes, say what you want about conservative presidents, but they know how to keep their wives in check.
He goes, George Bush was president for eight years.
I still don't know his wife's name.
That's facts.
That's facts.
I forgot.
Chris Rock had a bit about that, too.
This is before Michelle even got popping.
She was like, oh, you can't have no black first lady.
She's like, yeah, I said it.
He's like, why?
Because she's going to want too much of the spotlight.
She's like, oh, no, you ain't president.
And that's exactly what happened, yo.
We saw Michelle Obama every week, yo.
Son, I heard a, I saw a wild clip, bro.
I don't even know if we could say on here, but like just about the God.
Chris Rock.
What happened?
Uh-oh.
I don't know if I like this.
Trud lightly, please.
Yeah, Trudd Super Lightly.
I fuck with Chris Rock, man.
That's who made me a comic.
People tell me the highest comment I get is sometimes people are like, yo, you know, you remind me of Chris Rock.
That was my, and you know, that was my guy for a long time.
Yeah, yeah.
He told me about taxes.
Just watching the standard.
Well, what happened?
What's the clip?
I just, you know, someone was saying.
Oh, gosh.
I don't know if it pains you to say it.
Yeah.
It may not be.
I hope it's not.
Someone was saying, I can't beat True.
Can we save it for Patreon?
Maybe we save it.
That's the move, yo.
Well, do you got to think of this hard?
Patreon.
Save it for Patreon.
Have you heard any rumors about Chris and him getting to some hell brand?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I've been hearing that for decades, bro.
Okay.
Okay.
Oh, that's what you're talking about?
But I think they openly say it sometimes.
No, no.
He don't.
No.
I know what he says.
Really?
I know what he says.
Oh, he doesn't write his own shit?
No, because I.
No, I'm not saying that.
Have you heard anything about that?
Yeah, I mean, I've been hearing that for I don't know if I could believe that.
I don't know.
Since I started comedy, I've been hearing that.
And again, that could go right back to this Patriot shit where it's like, you see someone have that much success, you got to find ways to knock it down.
Drake.
Exactly, right?
Same shit happened with Drake.
Someone has that much success.
You got to find out why you're not successful.
It could easily be a bunch of comics.
It could be easily a bunch of comics hating.
That's why I don't even like putting that shit out there.
And that's why I ask.
I don't even like.
Yeah, so let's not.
But for the award shows, they grew up.
Everybody got writers for the award shows.
For the roasts, everybody got writers.
We're talking about his stand-up.
Writing for a roast is a collective process between you and your homies.
Yes.
You bring the team, you bring the squad together, and you guys, and the same thing with an award show.
You bring the squad together.
You literally hire a team of writers, like a late night set, and you guys put that together.
Ah, gotcha, gotcha.
Okay.
So you're saying for stand-up.
But for stand-up, that's got to be you.
Listen, all of us for stand-up, if Akash has a great line for me, I'm going to take the line.
Or if I have a line for Akash, he's going to take the line.
If I have a premise I think Andrew could do more with, I'd be like, yo, this might work better for you.
This never happened, but it could.
And then the rest of the joke is his.
100%.
I'm not going to be like, hey, here's a full bit.
Just take that.
Son, there was a, I think it was, I think it was, it was Seinfeld said that like Cosby gave him a premise or something like that.
I forget, but it was like.
Better than a lot of things he could have given you.
Coffee.
I think that happens with everything.
Even in music, too.
It happens in music all the time.
It's like somebody just comes in and is like, hey, this is okay.
But I think what happens is when motherfuckers see the success that you have and they know, because that's the thing about comics.
Comics, you know, are some envious motherfuckers, just like anybody in a competitive field, right?
Where there's not a lot of resources and there's a lot of people, you get envious.
So it might be a joke that Rock says, then a comic says to somebody else, they go, I gave him that shit.
You ain't give him the whole joke.
You might have given him a line, but you go, I gave him that shit.
And then the game of telephone starts where it's like, yo, matter of fact, blah, I was writing for him.
And by the time you know, it's a whole different news story.
And it's, oh, yeah, well, you wrote the whole song.
He wrote the whole thing.
And some one-legged rapper is out here complaining.
Damn.
Damn.
Poor guy, bro.
Poor guy.
Poor guy.
He ain't even put himself on blast.
That's why I feel bad for him.
Like, it'd be one thing if he was like, yo, I wrote all the songs.
Like, come on, Meek.
You couldn't eat that one.
You could just let that one slide, bro.
Like, now he's walking around with a peg leg, no hits.
He already got one leg, dog.
Oh, no.
This is after.
Oh, they took his leg?
Yeah, they had to tax him.
Damn, son.
They took his leg.
Son, Drake don't play.
Drake don't play out.
Yo, Drake's a good sleep.
Drake is a goon, bro.
Wait, really?
Drake is a mob boss type shit.
Talk to me.
My boss.
What has he done?
I've heard that.
This guy has.
He don't got bodies, but he got guys who will get bodies for him.
Gladly.
Who?
And they'll never do that.
Who has done the work?
Talk to him.
Ah, fuck.
All right, so, Bam, there's a song that just came out called you Top Boy.
You watch Top Boy.
He had a song called Behind Bars.
And a song Behind Bars, he says something along the lines of, you know, something, something, something, something.
Like, we're happy.
Basically saying, like, we're happy there was no camera phones out around this time.
Talking about a time of Coachella, talking about a time of Nobu, right?
There is a artist who was popping at the time, and he had an issue with the artist.
The artist said, You took a melody of a song and made it a hit record, and he came up to him drunk at a party one time.
They say it was Dram, yo.
What the fuck?
All right, Drum.
All right, Drum got his ass, whatever.
Party.
I guess he came up to him drunk, whatever.
Like, oh, man, you know, so Drum came up drunk.
Yeah, Drum had a song called Cha-Cha.
Remember, I liked the Cha-Chai.
A couple months later, Hotline Blink comes out.
Basically, the similar song.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
And he was hot about it.
And according to reports.
I mean, Drum literally sold a cha-cha.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
But anyway, according to reports.
So he beat up a guy that pressed him.
He pressed Drake at his own party.
So then you get beat up.
Drake's like, yo, like, calm down.
We'll talk about this later.
And he's like, no, no, no, no.
And then by the time, you know, fingers are waving, it was.
I heard a story about Drake.
I still don't like the man, but this is the fucking illustration.
He's talking, imagine it's me and Kaz talking at a party like this.
My homie's from Canada, a comic we know.
Said he saw this happen live.
Yes, he's this close.
And it's imagine Drake and his homie talking like this.
Real close.
And then a girl, if you're, let's say you're Drake actually, a girl slides in between Drake and the girl and just starts like getting in Drake's face, just like yelling at him, whatever.
Drake just turns his head to the side and then claps over his head like that.
And then security comes and grips this girl like he doesn't have to fucking.
He did an MJ thriller clap.
MJ thriller clap is exactly what it was.
Bye.
MJ thriller clap.
Just kind of the head.
Little like crooked face.
Like, hi, this bitch.
Let's her talk for a little bit.
And then it's funny they grabbed it, picked that bitch up.
She's like, get back.
People try to front on Drake just because he sings and shit.
Like, he don't got to be the toughest guy, but he got tough guy money.
He got dual money, bro.
Like, all you got to do is make the call.
I've heard some other shit about Drake that I'm so not at liberty to talk about.
Oh, tell me.
Yeah, we'll talk Patreon.
Tell me.
I mean, there's rumors.
You've all heard the rumors.
I ain't heard the rumors.
You heard the rumors about XXX?
Oh, yeah.
Did he took out X?
I mean, Kanye.
All right, I'll put it on Kanye since it's not on me.
When Kanye was having his tweet storm back in the day, talking about how, you know, Drake was threatening him and sending purple heart emojis and like fucking the whole fucking sickle mode verse.
The whole verse about sickle mode is about how he was planning to put to fuck Kanye up.
The entire verse is dedicated to crept down the block, made it right, cut the lights, nothing nice.
Niggas think it's sweet.
It's on site.
Like, he's talking about because he lives down.
He lives in Calabasas.
He lives down the shit from Kanye West.
And he's literally talking about like.
But why rap about some shit you didn't do?
I mean, so Kanye, when he was doing his tweet storm and he was personally concerned about this because he put out that joke and he hit me in the DMs about it.
Oh, but he seems to have a sense of it.
He had a good year.
Yeah, nah, that was funny.
That's different.
It's different.
Until we go back to Toronto.
Him goes back a long time.
Our sign is Thunderclap.
I'm Jay Claude.
I was like, you know, as Alex is in the distance, like, I think Shelt's waving goodbye.
But nah, yeah, Kanye kind of alluded to the rumors.
And a lot of people allude to the fact that Drake might have had him touched.
And even before XXX passed away, he had an Instagram story.
You could Google the shit where he basically said, yo, if anything ever happens to me, Drake did it.
Yeah.
Kanye be getting too loose-lipped, though.
Wild, loose-lipped.
Wild, loose-lipped.
How did Jay's like, oh, don't send your killers after me and all that type of shit?
It's like, these motherfuckers do have killers.
He was legitimately scared.
Diddy has killers.
Jay has killers, just people who will ride for them.
This is how you know Diddy a real one because Diddy punched Drake and nothing happened to Drake.
Yeah.
Well, who's going to touch Diddy?
Exactly.
That's how you know Diddy.
Diddy got his people.
Okay, hold the fuck on.
So you're telling me.
Diddy slapped a lot of yellow motherfuckers, by the way.
Can we get, I just need to get this right.
You're telling me that...
That shit is an honor.
X said that if anything happens to him, Drake did it.
It wasn't a sub.
It was on his Instagram story.
He put that shit up.
Yeah.
And nobody questioned Drake after the X murder.
Nope.
I'm still kind of nervous about talking about this.
I wasn't going to speak on that.
I told you.
The rumors have been out there.
I'm not bringing home.
I never heard about this.
Ain't this crazy?
X said, if something happens to me, Drake did it.
Nobody did anything when he got killed.
Then they went after Lincoln.
For a Venmo joke.
Yeah.
That just shows you that everybody's a coward.
They go after the easiest.
Yeah.
So you got video of this, but it's on YouTube, huh?
Yeah.
Fuck.
YouTube needs to stop playing, bro.
I can find it.
I mean, I'm just saying, I'm not saying he did it.
I'm just saying, Dre, I wouldn't fuck around with Drake is what I'm saying.
Don't let the sing songs and the light skin fool you.
I know for a fact he's had people touched.
I don't know how many people, but there's rumors out there.
That's all I'm saying.
There's always been those rumors.
And now, apparently, X died.
Go back and listen to Sickle Mode.
Yeah, I need to look at that again, but apparently, I think X died.
And then Drake tweeted something or like, didn't he Instagram something?
I mean, didn't they say?
People say the lyrics to I'm upset was kind of him gloating about it.
Allegedly.
Yeah.
Oh, that was it.
What was it?
I'm upset.
He said, SMS, triple X.
It's like, why you keep shooting if you know that nigga dead?
SMX?
SOS, Triple X. Something.
Why did it even mention Triple X?
I mean, because it was a double entendre.
It's like Triple X. What's the word?
That's the only account of that.
SMS, Triple X. That's the only time I ever shoot below the neck.
Why you keep shooting if you know that nigga dead?
That's the only kind of shit that gets you some respect.
Yeah.
So SMS is like text messages.
Yeah.
XXX.
But it was a double entendre for like sending nudes or sending.
Shoot below the neck means like bust in, like shoot below the neck.
Like come on somebody.
Like triple X, like XXX, like it's.
Yeah, but the double entendre is that like you can take like a nude of yourself below the neck.
You know?
So it was like the double entendre was triple X as important and triple X as the rapper.
Oh my God.
Son, how did he get no smoke for this?
How is this not like?
Because he can just say that.
No, I'm talking about artistic, artistic liberty, bro.
X fans, y'all need to go at this, man.
Y'all ain't about no.
They've been after him.
Like, look at all these.
There's literally tons of shit on the internet about conspiracies that Drake had him touch.
You ain't exposing his home address.
But we love rap conspiracy.
Yeah.
Man, you can look at Drake's home from Google Mess.
You don't got to expose that one.
Yo, who's the rap Alex Jones?
I would have kind of put what's his face on academics a little bit.
But now he's kind of.
Oh, okay.
In a sort of way.
Like during that Chicago shit, he was really on the front line and reporting all that shit.
No, but that's important.
Like, who's the guy who's straight?
Conspiracy theory and rap.
Yo, if someone want to make money.
Probably Lord Sear, maybe?
I'm not.
I mean, Lord Jamar, he does a lot of flat TV shit.
But that's like some race shit.
Like, I'm talking about just rap.
That's a lane.
Yo, that would be a massive lane.
If you're rap Alex Jones, you just get out there saying what this really means and what this bar is really for, and this person really got killed by that person.
See, but rap is a sensitive, and that guy will get touched.
That's what I'm saying.
Like, it's not worth it.
It's not worth the.
The juice ain't worth the squeeze over there.
Say what?
Yeah.
And he almost got touched.
Yep.
He almost got touched.
He needs security when he goes out.
Really?
Yeah.
So Ak got security.
Ak look like if I gave up.
Tell him, that's when I knew I needed to hit the gym when somebody said, oh, you look like a skinny version of Ak.
I was like, damn.
If I even get in that comparison, oh, shit, I got to hit the gym.
I mean, interesting.
Inter design.
Anyway, so, okay.
What else?
What else is there?
Oh, what else is there?
Basketball's back tonight.
We didn't talk about how Rockets are going to fire Darryl Morray.
Oh, this is what I was going to ask you, real quick, to wrap up Darrell Mori.
Do you think he did this on purpose to get fired?
So that's what I'm curious about.
Oh, I don't know how we fucking...
This kid is sorry.
Gagnon.
Yeah.
So that's what I'm curious about is a guy that's so good at making these decisions, a guy that's so calculated and understands the risk and reward of every single thing he does.
He knows exactly where that organization's bread is buttered.
And furthermore, that's a problem for the NBA because you know what they canceled?
They canceled all these like G-League games.
They were doing G-League games in China.
Calculated NBA Decisions00:03:47
Swiftly.
China shut it down.
So, yo, he cost the NBA.
It might be eventually billions of people.
Probably a bill.
Probably a billion.
Dude, and I mean, Adam Silver got to be going fucking nuts right now, dude.
He got to be going fucking nuts.
You know how you know it's a huge story?
You don't hear about it.
You don't hear about it.
That's a great point.
That's how you know it's a big fucking story.
I'm just like, you're just going to upset in the time.
100%.
This is bankrolls a lot of probably the second biggest league in the entire country.
Nike, Adidas, New Balance, Under Armor.
All do those camps out there where they send Steph Curry.
They send it higher.
Make their sneakers out there.
Yes.
Every single signature Adam.
Every single signature fund has to go to China.
They be putting the fucking shoelaces in in America.
The rest of the shit is made in fucking China, guaranteed.
I don't want no American making my sneaker.
Oh, no.
Ways too big?
Adam Silver.
Fucking sneakers.
Son, real talk.
I can't have no American making my fucking sneaker, dog.
You need a Chinese child.
I need the sweat up.
They don't gotta be a kid.
But it helps.
They gotta be.
Are they ever kids?
I never seen like a Chinese people have childhood.
That's because I would say, like, be a baby and then be sweatshop workers.
Yeah, like, they only got a few different phases.
Like, babies, then they got teen and then they got old.
But I never seen, I never seen an Asian that looked like they couldn't work in a sweatshop that wasn't a baby.
Does that make sense?
Like, baby, no.
But every other aged Asian.
Have you ever seen a 10-year-old Asian?
You've never seen one of them.
Where have you seen a 10-year-old Asian in your whole life?
I went to school with them.
I don't even remember them.
I had, in my high school, 50% Asian, right?
Before that, I didn't see a 10-year-old Asian.
They just look the same until they have long-term.
My best friend is Chinese since I was 12.
Say what?
Say that again.
My best friend is Chinese since I was 12.
And how long he been 12?
You don't know how long he's.
Don't age, yo.
It's not even about don't age.
They never are.
It's like, you know how like you don't see the fucking pigeon when they are a baby?
You know how you only see adult pigeon.
You never see the baby pit.
Like, we live in New York our whole life.
We ain't never seen a baby pit.
That's Asians, bro.
You see.
Son, you see the eggs in the nest, right?
They get born.
They're adorable as fuck born.
Make a couple Instagram videos that are absolutely adorable.
And the next time you see them, they're teens, bro.
You don't see 10-year-old Asian.
What about the little kids playing the piano all the time?
They're old enough.
They're not kids.
They're old enough.
They're 20 years old.
They could be 20 years old.
Easily.
They got like 30 leg hairs total.
But they don't shave them.
They got 30 total leg hair.
They don't be shaving their legs, bro.
At least the ones in my high school.
These bitches have 30 total leg hairs, 15 on each.
And them shit's going to stay, bro.
Look like my beard.
Can we not be on SNL?
Hey, let me tell you something.
That shit has sared a long time ago.
We rosted that opportunity.
We did, bro.
Yo, who's this Taco Fall?
Taco Falls, my guy.
Yeah, he's Taco.
What's his story?
I did interview him for Slam.
He went to Boston.
Mark Cuban Taco Fall Story00:04:18
Well, not Boston College.
Sure, he found out everything there's to know about Taco Falls.
Come.
Wow, he's 7'8 or some shit.
7'6.
7'6.
Yeah.
Why are they making a big deal about him coming back?
Because he's hilarious.
Oh, he's funny?
Oh, I don't know anything about him.
No, he's just mad.
He could dunk while he's standing.
He was a meme for a while.
There was this video going around when he was in high school about this fat kid trying to guard him.
Oh, that was hilarious.
Exactly.
He just goes, and he's like, what the fuck am I supposed to do?
I was just looking at him up and down.
And then he was kind of terrible for his first two years of college.
And then last two years at UCF, he kind of looked like he could walk and chew gum at the same time.
And now he's in the NBA.
Good, great guy, though.
You can't teach 7.6.
Exactly.
It's like you just are 7.6.
And you take that risk because you're like, if we could bare minimum make him a defender.
If he could run up and down.
Just run up and down.
In this NBA, though?
For 10 minutes, yeah.
And he's worth it for 10 minutes.
Like, think about this.
Think about this.
You're in the Eastern Conference finals.
It was so funny.
Yo, look at Leonard Oots trying to go to Taco Falls.
That was hilarious.
You're in the Eastern Conference finals, and then you have to deal with Kyrie Irving going to the basket.
Okay.
Yeah.
You have a guy who's 7.6 that's just going to put his fucking hands up and make Kyrie shoot over it.
Just make it difficult.
He's the heaviest player in the NBA.
Oh, weight-wise?
Yeah.
Oh, really?
Yeah, he's like 7-6, like 3-something.
Oh, shit.
Largest motherfucking league.
Yeah, I don't play around.
Anyway.
I think you got a time to pay some bills, baby.
I think you're trying to pay some bills, baby.
Guys, we're not playing.
Okay?
We're not fucking playing around here.
The Athletic is a subscription-based publisher of smarter sports coverage for the Diehar fans.
Let me tell you something.
This is how you know the Athletic is getting down to good reporting.
This is how you know the athletic.
This is how you know the Athletic is talking about some shit.
I think you know, I know what you're saying.
This is how the Athletic is actually breaking stories and making sense and putting the stuff out there that is bothering the powers that beat.
What is that motherfucker's name?
The owner of the maps?
Mark Cuban.
Mark Cuban was trashing the athletic.
Now, Mark Cuban is a billionaire, is a good business guy, got his little shark tank shit, is a great owner of a team, you know, but he likes his control and he likes his power.
He don't like the NBA telling him what he can and can't do.
He pushes buttons wherever the fuck he can.
They say, don't play Tony Romo.
He's going to have Tony Robo suit up.
He's going to have Tony Rowan on the layup line.
He does not like being told what to do, and he likes controlling his narratives and controlling the industry itself.
The athletic puts someone out to piss that man off.
Do you know what it was?
I don't know what it was.
Something was.
I just knew immediately as soon as I saw the tweet.
Something's bigger.
It was personal.
Yeah.
And the only way he could counteract it was to shit on it, which is actually.
And they're going to big it up even more.
Yeah.
Going to big it up more, but also must means it's truthful.
Yeah.
It's like when someone accuses you, I'm trying to not use something really bad because we're still doing an ad.
It's like when Jay-Z said, I'm about a dollar, what's 50 Cent.
Everybody's like, who's 50 Cent?
Like, you're not, Jay-Z ain't saying that if it didn't bother him.
That's what made you know if Benty is somebody to be reckoned with.
So the athletic is doing good work.
And the model is so simple.
No ads, no pop-ups, no autoplay videos.
Hey, what's wrong with ads?

And we're back, baby.
What else we want to talk about, boys?
I only had a few things written down, football-wise, and we just talked about them.
Is Deshaun Watson?
If he's not top five QB, he's top six.
Mahomes, Breeze, Brady, Rogers, Wilson, Watson.
That's my list.
Not in any particular order.
I know I put Watson at six, but I got Mahomes.
I put him right outside.
I don't know who.
I can't think of anybody who's putting up crazier numbers.
He puts up crazy numbers.
No offensive line.
More with less outside of the league, probably.
Will Fuller, who looked pretty good yesterday.
But Watson, man, and the hype coming out of Clemson was Dabbo was calling him the Michael Jordan of football.
He's like, if you pass in this guy, it will haunt you for the rest of your tenure if you're a GM.
And so far.
So good.
The Bears had him instead of Trubisky.
The Bears might have won the Super Bowl by now if they had Deshaun Watson.
Wow.
I don't think they lose to the Eagles last year.
I'll say that.
Of course not.
Because Trubisky has cost them games.
And the thing about Deshaun Watson is like, he's not going to cost you a game, and he's good enough to win you a game.
He's good enough to will you to win a game.
He'll throw some picks, but nothing crazy.
Nothing crazy.
Nothing game costing.
He'll get you.
If he throws a pick that costs you the game, it's because he got you close enough to make it.
I'm going to understand in college, like coming out of the draft, how he slid so much.
He's black.
To be honest, that's what I was saying.
They can't, like, if you're not super athletic as a black dude, they can't understand how you're going to be good.
Yeah.
In the same way, they can't understand how a white not quarterback could be athletic.
It's like the Christian McCaffrey flip.
It's like, oh, he can't just be like a really smart, like, breakdown a defense quarterback.
He's not super at.
He's athletic, but he's not super athletic.
So probably middle of the first round is where we should be.
That was the knock on Dwayne Haskins.
He broke a shit ton of records in the Ohio State.
I say this really.
Not athletic, real quick side note about Dwayne Haskins.
I was watching him as post-game, post-game press conference.
I was like yo, my man, look kind of fat.
He does give me like Byron Leff vibes a little bit like he looks kind of fat kind of round.
Get used to me being up here smiling.
I know I had a bad game, but this is one of the few i'm gonna have some crazy shit like that.
And I was looking at him.
I was like yo bruh, you look like what's?
That cartoon in the 80s uh, that came out with the Fat Baby was a Black Family.
I love that movie.
Anyway, Deshawn Watson's the top five qb.
Dwayne Haskins is fat, these things I feel like I got.
I got Mahomes, my number one.
I got Russell Wilson as number two, all over Brady.
I'll put Aaron Rodgers three.
I'm talking about.
Like yo, i'm starting to, i'm starting to, i'm starting to franchise right now.
Who am I taking to build around?
Okay, and I think you still need a little bit more pieces to make Brady work.
But Rogers, Breeze and Brady are all older.
That, that too.
They're all on the wrong side of third, that too.
So I got, I got my homes.
Wilson, Rogers.
Uh, I think I think i'll put Watson in there.
My fourth and my fifth might be like, Fuck, I guess Brady, I guess I.
I personally like Drew Breeze Brother, but i'll put Brady just off the fact that the motherfucker wins and he's got that thing that you know, maybe he maybe, if he's on another team, maybe he still wins two or three Super Bowls, maybe not six, but he's just got that thing where he just fucking wins.
He's got that maniacal workout.
Yeah, he's got that thing about him.
So i'd still take him as my top five.
But yeah, Mahomes is still.
He's the.
He's the boss Dawn, he's the final boss right now.
As far as quarterbacks.
Right now that motherfucker makes throws that I didn't even think you can get away with.
He had a crazy touchdown pass yesterday.
Yeah, like he scrambled, so I he.
As soon as he dropped, impressive.
Yeah, as soon as they drop back to pass, he's playing, I think, the Colts he's at like the Colts 30 yard line.
Drops back to pass.
No pass, no pass protection.
Two guys, two linemen get through.
He runs to his right, then another lineman comes, so he runs all the way back around to his, his left, or maybe I flip, he's going.
Runs left, then right all the way to the other side of the field and then just tosses.
He runs.
Should have been, should have been like a 15 yard loss.
He runs to his right but his right was the same direction as the defense because he was running away right from where he wanted to go the exact opposite way.
Came back yeah, nailed somebody wide open and it's like he's healthy.
He's just got arm talent that i've, i've.
I could only remember like Bruh Fav having.
Yeah, he was where.
It's just like, yeah, why the fuck are you throwing that?
November Palooza Ticket Rush00:03:38
Oh, because you could make that.
But he hasn't been playing well last couple games.
I mean he had a good game, I thought, against Detroit, for the most part, I think.
I mean he still put up like 30 something.
Last last game the Colts controlled the ball for like 37 minutes, which is a lot.
That leaves the chiefs 23.
yeah so that was their game plan is we're gonna drain the clock so you can't get it let's take the ball out of homes' hands and he he didn't have a great game still but that was also part of it is the colts were like all right we're gonna run their running back mech he's good we're gonna run this guy we're gonna control the ball we're gonna control the ball bleed the clock and then just try to beat you just make it a waiting game that's the game plan yeah okay fair enough fair enough um guys before we get out of here let's let's say some dates and uh For those of y'all,
