Welcome to the crazy J podcast show ladies and gentlemen boys and girls at your main man aka
Crazy Crockett from the state of the Union. No one cares about Michigan
Of course the greatest place in the world. Of course
We're gonna talk about sports today folks. Parley Shawn is back
Healthy his cars working his blowing go. He's using his lips better. I guess
Happy April Fool's Day. I had a really good joke today. Go for it. Oh my god
Me and the girlfriend actually plan this out really well
Yeah, and but I had to do it individually
So I went and picked her up picked up her older daughter today and took her to work
and
Jess if was Jess was with us. She would have started to break out. So this is what I did
picked her up nicely picked up Kendra the daughter and
And we took her to work but just before she got out of the car. I said I got to tell you something
and this is a serious conversation your mom told me not to tell you and
She goes this she goes this is why we're besties. That's what her daughter said
No, they said okay, but I would I did it in a really really calm voice, which I don't always do right so
Anyway, I said
You're gonna have a little baby a baby brother or baby sister
And her face was just
Drop dead. Oh shit. What's mom gonna do?
I
Thought she was gonna text the mom or her mom or whatever and I waited
But I know I know her very well, and I thought she was gonna be gone. I said April Fool's
She goes she goes you fucking bitch. I
Said I'm really sorry, you know, I would do anything for you
But me and mom convived in this and we thought it would be pretty funny
And she said it was pretty funny and then I said help she has a good day and then she goes you're a little bitch Sean
But that's great
We are on sports and there are no little shawls and probably will never be any little shawls going around we will buy dogs
So
I want a German shepherd a husky or a lap I
Know somebody in AA this breeds lab so
Eventually we'll get a lamb lap the person or I met Jess's sister this weekend and they breed
German shepherds so we got two ways of being able to get a dog
Well, yeah, I mean, I like German shepherds and I already have a German shepherd. So I do like lab so
Or just love oh good. I a what's those called a doodle-doodle?
Labradoodle
Tony's son has elaborate those are hyper dog and they are they always want to be a lap dog and they're
Frickin huge
We should get one for Tony
He already has his son some already has
So folks we're gonna talk about the NCAA
March Madness
Men's and women's because of the big game for women
God, well, you know what we'll start with the women's
their arch rival of
Caitlyn Clark and
LSU Reese we all know that they met in championship last year and Reese wanted to make it
Absolutely obvious and pointed to her fingers in the last few seconds that we got a ring
I think it was on purpose that they made sure that they were gonna meet in the lead a and didn't put them on opposite brackets
So they couldn't rematch in the final four, but why would they kind of shitty? Yeah, it's shit
Why wouldn't you just wait till they get to the championship?
Because they're both that good. They are you're right. They really are who's better?
Okay, I don't
At least I mean who's gonna make the who's gonna make the WMBA
Okay, both of them time out. They're both gonna make the IWMBA
But before we talk about that yeah, because you brought that up, okay?
Caitlyn Clark just needs to say fuck the WMBA and go to the big ballers. Yeah, go to ice cube. Yeah, I'm on average
So because we're on this Caitlyn Clark was offered five million dollars to go join big ballers
If anyone that doesn't know anything about big ballers and all men league
It's all NBA or all foreign players that used to play in their late 30s or almost 50 years old
Mm-hmm an ice cube offered Caitlyn Clark a five million dollar contract to come. Okay, do the math for you
This is this is the crazy thing. Oh
She would get
$74,000 it's a minimum contract
For four years so seventy four thousand times four is two hundred ninety six thousand dollars. Yeah, cut
the most money
That you can make in the WMBA is
242 so she's already wasted four years of her career. Okay, so
if
She plays another 10 years which equals 14
242,000 times 10 is
Only 2,000,420 now add that to the
78,000 plus
78,000 plus 78,000
It's two million
732,000 dollars for her whole career
While she can go join big ballers for five million dollars and she already has a Gatorade commercial
And she already has a state farm state farm commercial. That's probably paying her a million dollars per one
That if she goes into the WNBA, she's leaving 2.25 million dollars on the table
Because she ain't gonna play more than six even if she plays 16 years that best case
She makes 3.2 million
I'm going I'm going WN. I'm going ice cube. I'm going to be a big baller
Well, you know what I would almost do which no, that's not a bad idea because what she could do is play there for four years
And then she can negotiate a contract with the WNBA where hey, I got paid as much you need to pay me more
Hopefully she doesn't get hurt and all that and I wouldn't even be surprised if I mean this might be five million dollars for just
Five years it might be a million a year and then if she doesn't like it
She still got another eight years to go to the WNBA. Yeah, or
She's like, I'll go find another job
I just made more than what I was gonna ever make in the WNBA in 14 years. Well, you know what I'm thinking
She is honestly the bet she's better than
Jackie Styles what used to play for SMS. Yeah, she's better than Candace Parker
I liked I liked Candace Parker. She's got like three or four championships. I can't stand the dude stupid bitch Brianna Griner
She's just a fucking idiot. Okay, why that goes back to the hold
Let's go over to Russia with fucking drugs like common sense. We Russia already hates us anyway
And we're dumb enough to bring drugs into the country not the smartest choice that you can make in the world. Yeah, that's true. So
Yeah, no one knows if she's a man or a girl
No, but she does love vagina. Yeah, she loves a scissor
But still but let's go back to the rematch, but let's go back to the fact that
what if
ice cream you
has
Ken is Clark
I mean that can is like a Katelyn Clark
involved in starting a woman's
Baller League, okay, so then she still makes five million dollars and then that way you would have all these all star
women basketball players
Going away from the WNBA because remember something that WNBA players are getting paid
They're most of their payments are being paid by the by the NBA by stern by stern
No, I'm not stern. They're not the big guy, but
that's where most of the WNBA is coming from and
For her to go to ballers
It just makes more sense because she can always go to European League
Play there show off her showcase be an ambassador to women's basketball or women's sports
You should probably make more money going to Russia and think about this
Do you want to play 30 or I don't know how I don't know what the WNBA is 30 or maybe it's half
Maybe it's 42
And so a to
Ballers is only run during the summer
You're gonna get five million dollars to go around the world at
10 destinations. Yeah
Ha what a joke. Yeah, I just I just wondered I wonder the NCAA
women's basketball league has an agreement with the
WNBA that they kind of forced the girls to play in the WNBA first
That subcontract that subcontract that they kind of like well in order to play on that in our league someday
You have to be drafted first then you can go somewhere else later
I wonder if that would have happened if I'm Kate and Clark. Who cares?
I mean you
If you go okay, think about this even if you go and you fail even if you fail
like I
Mean what what's considered failing in the first place because she's the first female that's about to play with a
Bunch of guys that are in their 40s. Yeah, and we're not talking about her in the post
But if she's good enough that the that the point and if it's all if it's only Kate one Clark
Maybe she's got four other guys. They're the ones that are gonna still be set in the picks
Maybe they're putting in around a four team of another three guys
And if they're making the picks that can get her open to shoot those threes
So it's not like this is just gonna be a stuff fast, you know, well, you know what I don't know how they're gonna
I'll tell you what they should do with that
Is that the what they should do with that is that they should invite Sheriff swoops and all Leslie
He said Leslie can his Parker and what they should do is mix interleague basketball
Like they do a softball
Where the girls can only defend the girls and the guys can only maybe maybe came Clark will start
Start some there, but this is a huge honor for women's sports and in general and I don't know
I mean
She's got a big decision to make
I mean
She's really focusing on getting past LSU tonight first because it's a rematch and I'm I was gonna
I was gonna win this game, but the number one thing to look at tonight is the over under in this game
It's a hundred sixty seven point five take the under because neither one of these teams even if the score was 88
To like 72 it was still under the 167 and neither one of them in this whole NCAA tournament plus a couple of the big 10 games
Have hit the 167, okay, and it's minus 106
So if you put $51 on it you win 101, okay?
And remember like what I've heard is that I was
Struggles if she doesn't score
Correct and the other the other girls on the team are not bad
I mean I got this one big woman that's in the post but if Caitlyn doesn't score
It's gonna be a close. Let's give me a close game no matter what but if she struggles and can't put points on a board
LSU wins again because Reese's
I'm sorry Reese is on it. Okay Reese will be a top five player. She already has a ring
What does she have to prove unless she wins a second one? Okay, but she is a top five player
Everybody knows that Caitlyn Clark is gonna be number one no matter what I mean
So Kailin Clark is more of a three-point here, but Reese is more like a
All around she's a power forward center
She's more like a what a LeBron or Kobe type of material
She's like big baby Davis from NC with State Wolfpack or she's like the Magic Johnson with the triple the triple threat or a Dremon Green
Okay, so she's a Dremon Green. Okay
To put it into terms this year or recently. She just doesn't get thrown out of the game every fucking day
She doesn't what she doesn't get thrown out every fucking week like Dremon. Oh, yeah
Dremon Green is a poor guy. Poor guy. I feel still feel bad for them. They didn't show up for it. Just like they don't know what's going on
So anyway, I will take the under tonight take the Hawkeyes
I bet if you want to look at another game Yukon is playing
USC gotta go with the Oski's too
Both of them might be in the final championship
Alright, let's go back if Yukon wins tonight by the way, you know what that means what for men and women's
There's a Yukon team in the final four and
We're about to go to the NCAA tournament and there is a
Team that also already has two teams in the final four
Nope
NC this is
This is gonna be wild. This is really gonna be wild. So let's go to the NCAA March Magnus for guys
Let's talk about the big guy from NC State
DJ burns this is this guy has the footwork of a
Kimmelized one. He's got a body of baby Davis, but he's big but he's bigger than the baby Davis
He's more like killing me. Oh, so six foot nine six foot ten two eighty five
He's been teased all fucking year. I'll go on back to the
just before the before the
ACC tournament about he's a fat player. He
Who knows what he's gonna do? There's a couple of times he's actually almost average triple doubles. He is I mean the point guard of
That team is also named DJ
But the thing is he is
The
When he the crazy thing is they have to pull him out like he can't he can't stay in there longer than like, you know six minutes
Because he just loses his breath, but he is truly
the
underdog story he's truly everybody
Wraps around him and when he is on the floor, it's a whole different story. I mean they blew Duke out of the water
What is crazy this kid's got footwork? He's got eyes. He passes like magic Johnson
Not okay. Oh, maybe the exaggeration magic because he can't move up down the court like magic
But he's more like a Zayatama so you can see the court, but he posts up plays
He picks and rolls and he's got a nasty hook shot and he's left-handed and he's left-handed
And he's got that almost that baby
Jordan fallaway shot
And it's like it's so weird to see a guy who's six nine to have that and no one blocks it because it's difficult for anyone to block it
his body mass will give
Edie a challenge because I think I really think that I really think that this kid
Can kind of push Edie out of that block that spot
Where those that's why Purdue wins a lot of those games because those rebounds that
Edie gets and speaking of Edie and but don't know if they don't want and the other thing is if they don't want to use I
Mean burns is six nine six, you know, whatever
275 but if they don't want to use burns on him they can throw
Mohammed Deira on him. I know he's a lot less weight. He's 215
But he's six foot ten and Mohammed Adira in the game before the Duke game already had a
10 or 11 rebounds and eight points in the first half and then you throw in
They also have a roster that they don't use that much
But then they have that kid that I don't like that much, but he had a couple of crazy rebounds in there
the kid from Fort Lauderdale the
Nephew anybody that watches college football or pro football
Danny Cannell the former Gator. I love that. His name is Ben Middlebrooks
So they have a six nine a six ten and a six ten
They have another six nine the earnest Ross doesn't play that much, but those other three players play at least 20 plus minutes
So that gives them 18 fouls also
So they can make any go to the line and try to make him miss. Well, you know, I think you know
I think with this tall and see say team if they can push him on the block get a mouth that block
Make him take the ball on top of the key
You might have a chance because I'm not convinced about
About produce guards, they're good, but I think if you caught if you can stay with them
I think that that game in itself. So you're saying NC State has better guards. I agree. I think they really do
But I I want to say this I I want the pretty coach to win you want pain or win
Yeah, I do it because he's been there for so long. He's never gone to a
He's number one anything. He's never won anything
He's been there so long. So he's got the hook. We all know he's seven foot six and he can make those little hook shots
Yeah, but is he going to be able to guard burns off the block?
Is he gonna be able to guard the haira they all can do jump shots
Do is he gonna be able to if Diera gets open on the three-point line and then does a pump fake and takes him to the hole like
This is what I would also do with burns with him. I would isolate them too
and a
Kind of like by the free throw line away from like 15 feet away
And I would take eb off the dribble now we'll let now we'll let burns take him off the dribble
Couple times because he's fastest quicker. He's got like so this is the first game that's on Saturday
Yeah, so I am so gone. Ho about oh, I love it. I love that they're giving NC State nine and a half
I am jumping all over this. This is my save money
I mean, I've done really well in the last two weeks of average about a hundred dollars a day give or take
You know, I've had some ups and downs, but I'm up fifteen hundred dollars in the last
15 days, but I'm making sure that I have at least two hundred dollars that I'm taking the point
I
Really do think that I really do think
Your pirate scored three runs by the way
I'm just checking and Elena Braves beat the white socks. They always do nine is zero
Well, I will get your baseball in a second, but let's go to the Yukon game. Oh
Man, I mean you kinds the best team in the country. I mean since we've been on here
You know, San Diego State got destroyed by 30 by them. They destroyed
I don't even know where to begin fighting a line. I what the fuck
Sorry, I know I'm not sorry I swear cuz it comes up on my but it was 23 23 at halftime
How the fuck do you lose by 28 points? They didn't they did show up in the second half
They really did not they didn't show up my brother and I were watching at my aunt's house and they just like oh
There's a whole new game. Let's just eff it up. That's just you gone
I'll tell you you cons be everybody by 20 points
They look so almost 30 and half most of them. Yeah, but on the other hand, I
Mean the there's not much to say about Yukon. They're dominant. They are we
Both say that the Big East is one of the most fun conferences watch
Um, I mean even NC State getting past Marquette, you know, they're in the final four
That was a tough matchup. That was a big that was a big win. I was a huge win for them
They were underdogs by six and a half in that game. So but Yukon is
By far the the best number one because obviously Houston lost
obviously
North Carolina blew a fucking 10 point lead and Bama won the game. I
Would say this I would say this
North Carolina Baca, this isn't his last name right?
I'm a bad guy. He's I just feel like he's not that good
I feel he does play basketball because everyone's taught him to play basketball and the point guard. It was terrible
The last two games even that game when they beat Michigan State and they're lucky that Walker
Wasn't lights out and that game gets North Carolina because that game was almost given to
To Michigan State if Michigan State could have this is one thing
I I would disagree with Izzo in the first half
They went inside against Baca and the game was really close and in the second half and they kept going to Walker
He Walker had big shots
But they kept going inside and they kept doing the ball outside to Walker to hit three corners
in the second half
They went away from going inside and then they went away from going to to
To Walker and when you go away from someone like Walker who needs the ball in his hand to be streaky
For like good eight minutes and they have in in the halftime show. So that's over 35 minutes
He's not gonna be on he's just not going hit it, but Michigan State
Had a chance to be North Carolina if they kept the ball going inside make it Baca follow somebody or anything
Yes, I get it Michigan State lost that game a lot of for a lot of other reasons
But I think that game in itself could have Michigan State could have won it. So how do you feel about 11 and a half?
I mean you kind is favored by 11 and a half in a final four game that does seem like a lot
But you kind is one like you said by over 25 points in every single game. I
think I think if you con gets going right away and
Have a bad one can't keep up scoring. I mean bam was better than Illinois, but you know, but I'm saying what happened
Okay, this is what happens with this is how you can't beat people bad
It's that time. Okay during the game both teams score back from work back and forth and in the first half
the second half when they come out and
Into into into play
Yukon changes things up a little bit and then what happens is that that team like cuz even San Diego State was only down
Four and then lost by 30. Yeah, so they all know it was tied. So this is this is what happens Yukon's coach Hurley
Adjusts the game changing things up
Bama now the bet is gonna be imported for the second half for Bama to start
Like at zero again and say we're at zero
We might be down by one or up by four, but we're still at zero
So what happens that when those teams going on a little cold streak?
I think
Bama just I mean you can't just keep scoring. So do you think they cover 11 and a half?
I would not touch this game. I'm gonna say they gonna cover that nine and a half
Well, no, this is 11 and a half. I know but I would bring take it down tonight
To get extra oh with Yukon covers nine and a half. Yeah, all right not Bama. Okay
If you were yeah eager and you wanted quick money based on the stats
The last few games Yukon does not cover the point spread in the first half
So if Bama gets six and a half
Maybe
Maybe you take the first half. Yeah, I like that. That's one thing that I
Maybe throw a 50 at if they're gonna give me six and a half
Yeah, but I'm not touching 11 and a half because that game is either Bama covers or they get
Absolutely destroyed. Okay. Would you take the over under? I don't know what it is. Well, we gotta check that song I
Would almost take the over let's see. Let's see
Should have looked this up before I asked us to the question the over under is 161 so that's 81 80
I would I would bring down 161. I would try and see if they give you
158 157
Okay, so be like 87 79 something that because that could happen the thing is though
You gotta be careful if you start seeing Alabama not scoring and within let's say this is really what's gonna happen
I'm gonna hit the threes in the second half and begin in the second half if Bama's not
Playing well, you're gonna be screwed
That's just at the bottom line Yukon has a lot of role players that like to play role players
They like doing all the dirty stuff. They don't need to be that half the guys know
They're not gonna make it to the NBA to gonna be having a lot of fun
Yukon looks like the old Duke old Kentucky teams. Am I right?
Where they just had a lot of role players coming in and out and they just slaughter everybody. I
mean, this is like
This is like the classic
Christian Layner
Grand Hill era we got a lot of Christian Layner was not a really a
Guy, but he's a role player that became a guy
So this is the new generation. This is gonna be the team that's gonna be good for like 20 years
If Bobby Hart Hurley stays there
And it really comes down to their point guard Sears making shots and
And but they can they do have a couple of really good tall guys that
Uncle Rico Grant Nelson is really good and that Nick Pringle are really really good
But they do move the ball east to west. I know that's something that a lot of these college basketball teams don't do it so well
A lot of I think that if you go back to Michigan State
They had a lot of problems going from east to west and that's kind of what they got them into the game
Against North Carolina, but going away from that. You just didn't do anything like that. This game with you, Khan
Alabama Alabama is just gonna have to keep moving the ball around
Does I mean you I mean?
Yukon wins right I just don't know how you can't bet against them at this point with what we watch
I love them. I love them. We should be really scared of not it's awesome
Congratulations, Bama. You took out North Carolina and came back from 10 points down
Yeah, but you cannot get down by 10 to Yukon. No, you just can't you just can't you have to keep scoring and this is what this is one thing that
This is one thing that the NBA and college basketball players don't do anymore is that when they get into a slump
Well, this is what they do they did pass the ball or they
Extra dribble and then take outside shots
What they need to do is that they get in the slump do a pick and roll and go to the basket make the referees
Call flowers so that breaks up that streak when you break up that streak of a 7-0 run or 6-0 run
You save yourself energy by going to the free throw line get yourself reorganized and then
making you kind understand that they cannot
Push you around and keep in this
This excessive scoring streak going you can keep
Yukon from going
11-0 runs or 5-0 runs or any runs in Sean shorts. You'd be alright
I mean how crazy is this first of all there is never just for a second
This is out of four teams left NC State is 26 and 14. Okay, that's a 14 loss team
and
Then you also have another team Alabama that has 11 losses while we have Purdue at four losses and fucking
New con at three like the overall losses that seven to 25 when you put the other lower seat like
Yeah, and I tell you the truth. I don't I don't know I
Don't know any team that can I don't know Purdue or NC State could even come close to being you con. I
Don't see it. I can see a better matchup with adab a month against Purdue at a bad month against NC State
If Bama can beat Yukon somehow
It'll be more fun to watch the national championship. Yeah, I mean deep down inside as a fan
I would rather have it be Bama versus the Wolfpack or even Purdue. Yeah, as much as I highly dislike E
I just can't understand how his footwork is a lot better than last year year before
Every time you have 40 points. He had and the rest of the team had it fucking 32 in this last game
Yeah, I know it's it's crazy. It's crazy that someone who ever worked on his footwork in the offseason this offseason
He should give him like the least 25% of his paycheck for the NBA if he makes it in B.A.
Which I don't know if he will not but I think I'll get drafted. Okay, I so
Are we ready? I mean we think it's gonna be Yukon versus I
Want NC State but I want could be Purdue I want I like both of those teams and to say I love I
I really do love NC State, but I love that coach. He's never been there and I just kind of point for him
But I do think I do think that this is the game that Purdue could fall
Because this just too much talent on that NC State team
So are we ready for opening day? Oh?
Yeah, I love baseball but Tigers Tigers Tigers 3 and oh
But they did play what against the worst MLB baseball team ever right now the way sucks in this
They're bad. They're awful bad against them non-stop. They lost nine nothing today. They're four and four
They're probably the worst team. They're worse than Iraqis
They're just not good
Maybe they should move don't I'm not saying so who I mean I mean
There's only other there's only two other teams that I haven't won a game yet and both of those teams are surprises Miami's oh and four and somehow somehow
No somehow Houston lost four straight at home and
I just want to say this because I really want to talk about this for a second because
This is the banana on steroids right now, right? But the team that took four in Houston
is the most hated team in baseball and
And I got to give a shout out to the Yankees today because
I mean this team was down three zero came back up 153 and then they won 7 to 1 in one game and then they were down another
3 get three again, and then they won four to three and then whatever but my I still remember opening day
and this comes back to win in and
and in this series so it'll has two home runs and
A mother fucking punch out at the mother fucking plate. I will say this over and over again, and I did it when I was in
Damn Detroit when he was with the Padres and he hit two home runs in that series in one night
Yeah, and then they were dumb enough to run on them. Tell you right now. You don't run on motherfucking soda
The balls hit the soda. You're an idiot if you're trying to score
Okay, cuz he punched a guy out in the first game of the series in Houston and he hit time home runs
This kid is good and he already has a world series that was with the kids
This kid is good and he already has a world series that was with Washington, of course, but
Yankees team is 4-0 and somehow
They're probably gonna take two or three against Arizona at least so they're gonna be six and one that might be seven and oh
Yeah, they could look the Yankees like Aaron Boone
This is a possibly fired last year. This is his last year. They don't make it to the playoffs
I mean in fact, I probably got to win the world series
I think they have to get to the world series for Aaron Boone to make it
But this is something okay. This is one thing that the Yankees is going to have a problem with it's not bats
It's the pitching
Can the pitching maintain that that type of energy to keep going? Okay?
First of all, that's what you got. Are you really worried about their pitching? Yeah, because because what happens is that?
They have hitters
But when they're pitching doesn't come through the hitters are in a lot of pressure to hit more home runs and a little baby
Feel in a Yankee stay there Cole get traded
No, he's an IR. He's still hurt. He's never starting yet. Okay, so that's why he's not on there
No, he's not on there because he's he's because they have them on the IR and they're still yeah
Okay, and they're playing better without him because they don't know because they know that they have to pitch better without them
So this could be a
Element of shock if the Yankee say they keep the Yankees keep winning and Gary Cole is in playing they could easily just
trade them for some two or three ball ball pin pitchers because they really don't have very many star pitchers
It's no that's so that's their court Cortez
He's not that good
Call us for dawn, but he got rocked last year
Mm-hmm and hit or miss which I love them because he's a real personal guy and he's really cool Marcus strawman
Well, he really be really good or he can be really really bad. Yeah, so I mean
So the pitching for the Yankees is gonna be right, you know, that's gonna be what's gonna kill him or make him
I mean that you're right their bats are not gonna be bad because they have
This team is ridiculous. They have
Joe Barretty Barretty, which used to be with the Miami Marlins and he led off the batting. That's insane. I got the shortstop
Cabera they got Anthony Rizzo. You got tourists. You got Anthony Voleep, which hit two fucking home runs in this series
Yeah, in that they got Trent Grissom, which was also with the Padres Aaron judge Juan Soto
the former Red Sox Alex for grudo and
Stan like this team is stacked. Yeah, they're good. They're good
They're weakest position is the damn pitcher because I don't know who Austin Wells is and Jose Torino
I have no idea who those fuckers are
As you can tell we're not
But it does look like the Yankees are legit legit finally after a century and a half
Speaking speaking. I want to I got to connect this with a space ball thing
So Charlie Sheen owns owns Babe Ruth
I was to 1927 well series base championship ring. Okay, that's pretty good. It is it is at two
Million dollars in some change
But I want to I brought that up because Kobe Bryant's
Championship reign in 2000 that he gifted to his dad sold for
927 thousand dollars
Which is what what gets me is this how did that ring get away from his dad's
Pocket, I have no idea. So that's what makes me weird about see. I don't know. I think that's bullshit. Your son died
And you sell that rain
What the?
I'm on swear. What the fuck are you doing?
Because I'm not a huge Kobe fan, but think about that the guy is deceased
He died in a helicopter crash holding his daughter and you have the indocity
To sell that ring and I don't care if it was before he died or after he died or during he died
That's some bullshit. I agree because if that was given to my good, George my good. George was not stopped crying
True story. He wouldn't stop crying. Oh, he's so cry about Kobe's
Kobe's ring. He wouldn't cry. Isaiah Thomas gave him this right now. No, probably not because nobody cares um
So my question is would you rather?
We have to talk about 300 before we go to anybody else. We have to talk about the three other undefeated teams
We kind of touched on the Tigers. Yes, they are three and oh screw up a pitch really well in the first game
That picture that came from Minnesota
So I blew the hell out of the whole lead of three zero my two is that his name made a made up
He's basically garbage. I don't mean they still ended up winning because he came back from down six to two or whatever
And one time six night because Kelly our catcher
Hit our guy and can do can do who was at
What team did we come from canoe? He came from the Brewers
No, the Brewers guy and that's the only reason why we won but that is just garbage
Meeta, I mean, maybe we should put you in the bullpen just like we put
Casey Meiss in the bullpen because that is just garbage screw up pitch real well
Jason Frideri came with no one says they're talking about Mark Kana
No, I'm the Brewers. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and then a Jason and Foley
He pitched a holiday. Well, yeah one say but but we got
Yeah, Jake
Jack Jack Florida
He pitched a holiday game. He's good. I like him. Yeah, but here's the question folks
now
The Mets record of 0 and 3 is deceiving because they played the Brewers the Brewers are good. They're still good
They're still good
now a
Lot of people know that
The Mets have some bats
Now the question is Lonzo Lonzo later
But here's the best part
Dog shit wipe your ass
Reese Olson is pitching tonight. So they probably lose. That's like a guaranteed. He's fucking trash
Um
Like absolute trash
Um, I'm talking about team were beat you motherfucker
They and goes up against Shawn Mina, which used to be with the Oakland A's and the San Diego Padres. Yeah
Actually a decent pitcher
We know how terrible results it is like this is probably unfortunately Tigers fans. You might not want to watch tonight
Olson's trash
I mean you love him. You fucking think he's God's gift to you know
What you fucking you told me all that you're giving Olson some credit give him a break for what losing every freaking game
This is a new year. This could be like I'm telling you
Mr. Ajay Hicks Hicks Hinch
If he's struggling in the third
Third inning pull him right away
Don't even get him an opportunity to let the other team met score because that's gonna be
What's gonna make you a break you but one thing that Detroit Tigers might have problems though still is that they may not score enough runs
So if they get down well, this is true though because they won
They'll only be the White Sox game one one zero and I don't have in six than three two
Yeah, so there's only three runs and it's only seven six. That's ten. That's only 11
Baseball teams now score like 15 so 3.5 runs per game. Yeah, but it's not that good
Yeah, you don't want to play the Baltimore Orioles. They were averaging like
9 runs per game. Yeah, didn't it just be Texas or
Who did they just be that 97?
I mean that I mean that's just phenomenal. No Marlins. No, no, it'd be the Marlins
No, they played the Angels in 111 to 3. Yeah 13 to 4 and lost 4 to 1. So that's
25 runs in three games. Yeah, that's eight runs per inning. Yeah, per game
Yeah, so I think the Tigers will have still by is a still looking for the Stars every time I see this kid back
I feel like his head is like cranking to
Thinking it's going somewhere and he's the ball is gonna right by you know what's sad about Baltimore
Because well, well the Tigers
They will get their first loss if it reached Wilson wins tonight
They'll be four but they'll lose at least one in that series, but because we brought up Baltimore
Fresh Second because they're two and one or two and two, you know who's not then pulled up yet. Who?
Matt holidays kid he's still in triple A because that team is so king so
Yeah, but you know what I got you know what I'm playing fans of a ball
I'm in a baseball and I have no idea what I'm doing, but I did pick up the catcher from
No, from Baltimore. Oh, watchman. I did I did he is a stud. He's young
So I had to I think I said and that did pick up green from Detroit. He had a good deal last year
He's kind of slumping so probably gonna lose that in a hand show, but okay. We talk about the best team
the pirates this is for an oh
Swap them Arlen's
Let's ask Sean
Who is gone?
Why or who is the person who's gonna break the curse of all curses and who is he?
What's his name Chapman?
Donna's Chapman. He is a closer. He's a closer the Texas Rangers
And the cups and the Yankees. He didn't do anything here. I'm anything in the Yankees, right?
But but but the Yankees did allow him to go to the cups
to win the World Series in 2016
Yeah, so
This might be key. I mean the pirates look
Pirates just name the players. I can't even name them all and but this is the thing
This is the crazy thing. I
mean
Chapman
He almost had had the opportunity to have for a championship if you think about this
He got one with the Cubs and he got one with the Rangers, but he had a chance in Kansas City
Yeah, yeah, the Yankees. Yeah, I mean that run that they made right? Yeah, but
this team of
I mean the pirates I mean first of all you got you got a couple of decent pitchers you got
Mitch Keller, he's all right, and you got I mean their closer
But you got the belly fatner or whatever, but there here's their lineup
Mm-hmm. Oh now Cruz. It's only a second year that you can throw the ball 102 miles across. Okay, this kid's amazing
He's a beast their third baseman came came and Brian Hayes fast
They got a steal on the roadie tail has dude from Milwaukee
Mm-hmm
They have the outfield the right fielder Brian Reynolds. They had the other rookie Jack Skowinski
They got Michael a Taylor which used to be the Royals and Andrew McCutcheon
I got some other players as a second baseman that I don't know very well, but this team is
It's good. It's good. No, it's kind of it's kind of cool to see all these
small
Market teams. I'd love to see the pirates go somewhere. Well, they got cool uniforms
I love the hat only the only city one of the only cities out there that all the
Major sports teams share the same color uniforms
Then another team met on defeated is the Milwaukee Brewers
All right, I'm surprised that they're still hot and spot. Well, they have a brand new coach
But didn't he come from I don't know where that guy came from. I
Don't know where that coach is from
Wait, who went to San Diego the mall the Milwaukee Brooks coach
No, the former Brewers coach went to the cops. Oh, he went to the cops, right?
But but they still have Christian Elich
Pretty good, you know, he's a little bit streak. He's overrated. Yeah, he really is he yeah one good year
I think he had one good rookie year in the second year was really good
But everything else when starting to go I personally like will he add in miss better that shortstop. Okay, and then they picked up
The former Philadelphia first baseman because they moved Bryce Harper to first
Rock Ryan Haskins
Pretty good. Are we talking about the Brewers?
So Ryan Hoskins got traded or got picked up by the Brewers
Oh, you're right. Oh because because Bryce Harper went to first base because he's beyond field
And then they're stacked. They're stacked at the catcher position. I don't know why why they got the brother Wilson William
Contreras. Oh, yeah, right? And then they got the former
Minnesota twin
The former New York Yankee Gary Sanchez. Oh, yeah, that's a pretty good duel. Yeah, I like that
I like that. I like that a lot, you know, it's
This is kind of cool, but I am surprised that they're undefeated because they got rid of their closer
And they got rid of like three pitchers
But you know what I think I think what they're doing is something in the farm field
In the farm so their best picture right now is the Freddie Bull draw. Yeah
so
Maybe pigs for is the new
Marlins of last year the new Arizona and I'm back so last year to the diamond backs are still three and one
I know and remember they got my boy Eugene
And they still had the same pictures see this is good, I love the deep acts you like when I don't
You would hate would you hate it if they moved to a different city or do you do like them because they're from Arizona?
Would you they don't have you you want to know something though?
I wouldn't blame them for moving because they don't even fucking sell out when the Dodgers are in town. Okay
Well, do you think they should go back to the expo?
To Montreal well, that's Tampa Bay rays. I was not watching. Yeah, you're right Washington, but don't you think?
Would you would you be okay if they went to?
to
Montreal I
Think Arizona is still there's every baseball. Okay kids is hot one
Yeah, good people out there to get can we talk about the Oakland A's boy boycotting opening day
How do you feel about that? That's so fans boycott is the fucking game. That's so fun
Because they're moving
That's so that's so sad
That is sad, but people need to realize the Oakland A's or the Oakland the A's itself
They move like three four times
Ty Cobb was on that team when they used to be in Washington or something. They may worry in Washington, DC for a bit
That's why Ty don't ever win a World Series. Yeah, but yeah what the Jose can say go and mark wire and Anderson and
That picture. I don't think Ricky was there. I think with Eric Eric said
the
Closer Dennis Eckerson Dennis Eric sent in that Stewart the star picture Stewart
I can remember he's a bigger black guy. So they had some good years in the 80s
Yeah, they did but they moved the two or three times already
So Oakland is like Oakland the A's are like the Raiders the Raiders and the A's will always keep moving to one place to another
Someday the Raiders will be in space. I don't know why I would say that but they'll be in plain and then in space
So I do think
That's pretty cool that the boycott the whole game
the fans like FU for not
Staying here, but you're Oakland fans. Come on. Let's be real
You guys don't go to games all but now and now and and now you're pissed off at the movie
I was thinking about that and offseason all the years like five ten years ago with them. They weren't good anyways
They didn't even show up to games even when they had good players before they put them all out true
So I can't really like be all pissy for you guys
Say Detroit, you know
We always will have the Tigers, but when the Tigers are doing somewhat, okay
We show up to watch them and that's very though. It's like the lovable Tigers and the lovable cops
I do give you that yeah, and then I'm telling that the white socks has that too when they say white socks
When they start doing good people show up even if they're 500 a little above 500 people still go up to those games
When they suck they don't go no and and and and quite a while they should but I think one of them might get shot on the way out
Just that's why they're talking about moving to Nashville
But they're not because no I because that'd be a crime you move to Nashville
Then you're gonna have to move
Graceland to Chicago
Makes no sense, but you have to switch them because that's bullshit
Do not move the white socks the white socks belong in Chicago on the south side
We build a new stadium that looks like a classic
chemistry this baseball field that they have now looks like it
Looks like soldier field a spaceship
Just stupid
It's bad both those stadiums are just horrible take that spaceship out of soldier field
And that stadiums only 20 years old. No, but the inside of it looks terrible. No, the no the old
the
Old state and they still have the old inside of it
That's still there the old
Strucker structure, but don't know I'm no no I'm not talking about chemistry
I'm talking about so just feel the outside of so to feel is only like 10 20 years old the inside of the field
They have the old classic
Those Greek yeah, I got pillars shit those that been there since the 1930s and 40s
You need to make the white socks stadium classical make it look like you want to go there
Even if you're a cup fan, you know what the cup is on plan
Let's go to the south side watch the white socks
Because the plenty of white socks fans. I will still go to the cups game. Yeah, because it's a ballpark
It's yeah, you just one of the best ballparks in the country
Yeah, you just got to make it better for the folks make an environment better
I just I don't know how to add this so I want to I want to ask
Are the Tigers gonna make playoffs?
No, you know why because I don't think they have enough to pitch in I think if Casey mice was a better pitcher coming out of
Not the bullpen as a starter. I think they could win
He could win like 10 games and those 10 games that he's coming out
Those games that he's coming out of the bullpen and when you should be in there as a starting pitcher
We won't have those games so
Detroit is kind of screwed because if they don't have any prospect pitchers coming up
And they use the number one draft picks now playing in the bullpen like whence is
They thought whence was gonna be pretty good a couple years ago. He's coming out of the bullpen too
So so my white socks are terrible. So I'm gonna say you guys can take 12 out of 19 of those games
Yeah, okay, so the Royals you can probably take 12 out of 19 also, right?
Yeah, okay, so I put you at 24. Yeah in
14
Can you split with Cleveland and can you split with Minnesota?
I think I think you can I think you can split with Cleveland because this Michigan
Michigan Ohio thing it's always so they say you get let's say you get 10
Yeah, you're at 34 wins. Yeah, and then Minnesota will go the opposite way 98. Yeah, okay
So then you're already at 43 wins
But you need about 50 more
I need 87. Yeah, but you still over on there was 81. Yeah, but you still need I mean you gotta be that way
Okay, but you gotta be like the the pirates won out of three games
Because we'll always play the pirates every effing you I never understood that
national American League segment between the white side. I mean between the pirates and
In Detroit, but Detroit would have to win two out of three of those games
So that's two more games. So if you can beat your weak opponents and you can beat the pirates are actually coming up next week
Monday, buddy on the road. I know it's only a two game series
I know so in that series you got to win one. Yeah one or two. Yeah, okay, and they're coming to you got to take at least
two out of four in
A home game series against Texas. You got to split. Yeah, right, but you see you got to take coming
You got to take against Tampa Bay
Tampa at least one
Cannot get swept by ten back. No, but Tampa's a it's a weird team Tampa is really good in the beginning
What's the record right now at Tampa Bay two and two and it's now 500 so they could probably
Split that or they could probably win that because I don't think the Tampa Bay is the Tampa Bay
You got to take two out of three against the cards, right?
No, you will be happy with one out of three against the Yankees. You can't get swept. No
And we'll play them twice. I think we play that one you play three times in May and then you play them
Well around my birthday. Yeah, so I mean
I
Mean those big teams you got to take one out of three at least one out of three and sometimes you got to take two out of
Three against the Yankees or two out of three against the Houston or two out of three against Toronto or two out of four against Boston
Two out of three against Milwaukee two out of three
Maybe one out of three against Atlanta. You cannot get swept by any of those top Cabela teams
You have to win at least one and the Dodgers who can't get swept got to win at least one
San Diego Padres. Could you consider them still good?
You got I mean the Giants do you consider them still good? You should probably take two out of three against the Giants
Okay, you probably
Because of the bat still in San Diego at least take one. Yeah, there's one
But the thing about Detroit is about a pitching and unfortunately our starters are coming out of the ball pit
Do I think this is a bit too you know what I was thinking about I was thinking about this might be too early for
Casey mice to be coming out of open that was a good idea in the beginning
But he has not established himself as a starter and by putting him in a bullpen right away after his
Surgery you're just kind of giving up on the guy in my head
That's what I'm thinking if he was a veteran pitcher like Verlander winning games now that or like John Smoltz
I know I use John Smoltz a lot because John Smoltz had the same type of surgery
You could do that because he's ordered but you're Casey mice
You're busy 30 year and then MLB of the fourth year. You should really be ready to come out of the
as a starter and
Detroit
Keith Cobur the kid that just a key. What's his name Keith Cole?
Yeah, Keith Cole, right? Yeah that kid
His first hit was a half swing and he got oh my lord
I think Sean's just winning the shorts
But that kid hit a half half swing and he got on base so congratulations
We paid you a lot of money. Let's hit some home runs
to in
Torgensen, I don't know about him. He's got 28 home runs last year. No, you had 31. Did he?
Yeah, 31. Oh, but he's got to get his back going the Nationals just tied the game
What's what the pirates three to three? Oh, but I doesn't matter me. I just need the pirates to score three runs
I'm just saying the pirates to cover plus one and a half because I flipped it. Oh, so there you go
So I think we're gonna leave it out there. We'll do more parlay baseball for the future
But it's the season's too early
So we don't really know what the great stars pictures and all that stuff everything's
So for me for example, I took the Braves today. They want I took the Cubs today
They won I flipped the pirates were supposed to win this game, but I flipped it to one and a half of
Baltimore supposed to win this game, but I flipped to one and a half Padres were
Also underdog or were favored I flipped that to one and a half and I kept the Incuse at one and a half
I made a bet nine dollars and eighty cents to one hundred and ten. Oh
There you go. So this is what I did and for some reason
Fanduul avoided this back
Landon Braves they avoided yours because the game didn't finish the tournament in which is bullshit the game was nine zero mine was fine
Mine's not mine voted out
You got screwed mine got a nice little check mark, but
It did have a check mark and then they changed it
Son of a bitches
so I have I had I had
I had I had the over four and a half runs between Colorado and Chicago Cubs
Five runs. I have Pittsburgh to score over two and a half runs. I got three. I need Baltimore to score
Uh, two over two and a half runs. They probably should do that. Do that. This is the game that probably will screw me over
the Miami Marlins
To score over three runs, but there's zero and whatever. So I'm thinking they'll come out with bats
I'm hoping to do but they don't it's too bad. So is that thank you Fanduul. So
Yeah, screwing you over and they really screw me over. So
Just one quick thing here, buddy. What's up?
Eight games left. Hockey
Do I mean red wings had a chance? There's eight games. They still have a chance. There are two points behind
The Philadelphia 76ers
They got a sorry flyers
They got a tough matchup against the number one wildcard Tampa Bay tonight
They're two points back with eight games ago
Tampa Bay
Hasn't been a good game
Um, it has their number sometimes, but but can they catch Philly? They're two points back. Yeah, they can catch Philly
Larkin just I mean, I don't know why happened but larkin when he was out the whole team kind of shut down so
Clearly he's the captain of the team and he's the captain of the ship or the ice ring. So
I think they could
But you know, it'd be be such a big disappointment to have lost four fucking straight. I know
That hurts. I know they just they're different now because what happened in that time period when larkin was out
It was weird. It's like the whole team just kind of shifted to the left
To the left. I really thought they were gonna get in this year. Yeah, I know too bad
but
pastime sport
baseball's back
That's kind of like we'll probably do one more podcast this week before the NCAA tournament because baseball we're real close to the NBA
Finishing with only seven eight games and we'll touch on that maybe on Thursday or Friday
No, we're doing Thursday. Yeah because the games don't the Saturday games don't fancy. I don't start tol Saturday
So thank you for listening up to the crazy J podcast show
I like think parley shawms back. Oh, he's great to be here. Enjoy that rainy weather and hopefully we don't get that snow on
Wednesday and
peace
in love and
Take care of yourselves.
