Transcript

00:00Hey, what are some of your sports or his sports hypocrisy 713-572-4610?

00:06That is the number to text inspired by the fact that the Texans will be in Nashville facing off against the Tennessee Titans.

00:12And that reminded me of that one time that Andre Johnson, the legend of himself, like the legend that he is.

00:18I don't want to say cemented legendary status, but just added another portion to his lore.

00:23That one time that he whipped Corlin Finnegan's ass for talking too much.

00:25Oh, man. Love that day. Love that day so much.

00:29Yes.

00:30And that's a real beef, too. He said he probably wouldn't even speak to him if he saw him to this day.

00:36Remember he was talking about the drop that you had?

00:38Yeah.

00:39Like he saw him at a club or something?

00:40Yeah. He said he'd probably just walk past him.

00:42Yeah.

00:43I'm like, damn.

00:43That's a real beef.

00:45But I always look at players that fight in their uniforms.

00:50Like, especially with credit, he took that helmet straight off.

00:53But I'm always just like, what are you doing?

00:55Yeah, well, there was one this past weekend.

00:57Yeah, it's like, what are we doing here?

00:58Punched him right inside of the helmet.

01:00Posting up with the helmet on.

01:01Like, what you going to hit?

01:03Exactly.

01:04Andre did it, and I was like, bravo.

01:06Just beautiful.

01:07You love this.

01:08This is art.

01:08Not only is that a sports hypocrisy, because as you mentioned earlier, if anybody else does

01:13that, you're like, what are you doing, man?

01:14You know, not only is it hypocrisy, if it happened today, the reaction might be different.

01:20Dude, they would be talking about him being banned from the NFL.

01:23Well, honestly, if it happened today with Andre Johnson, I think you'd get away with it.

01:28I think one of the contexts of that was...

01:30Man, I don't know.

01:31Andre, like, one of the things that made it very clear that Andre was in the right here

01:35is that we know who Andre Johnson is.

01:37He's not really talking to nobody.

01:39Like, Andre ain't bothering nobody.

01:40See, I would think that, but I know this is more on a serious note, but when Myles Garrett

01:45had his deal with Mason Rudolph...

01:48Oh, that's a good example.

01:49That's him, Mason Rudolph.

01:49I was thinking about that.

01:50That's a really good example.

01:51He did swing the helmet, so I get that part.

01:55But this Myles Garrett...

01:55Myles Garrett don't be hurting nobody.

01:57No, no.

01:58And they wore the helmet banned from the NFL.

02:00Yeah, that's a perfect example.

02:01Because Myles Garrett is just universally loved.

02:04That's not his character.

02:05A guy that got punched in the face and didn't do anything...

02:07Punched in the face in the streets...

02:09Yeah.

02:09...and didn't do anything.

02:10Mm-hmm.

02:11Yeah.

02:12Yeah, so many...

02:12And they wanted him out of the NFL.

02:15So what's your sports hypocrisy where it shouldn't be, but it is?

02:21Mine?

02:22Me?

02:23Look, I love the city of Pittsburgh.

02:25I've been there a couple times to the point...

02:27I thought about moving there.

02:31I'm like, three hours away from Cleveland?

02:32Yeah.

02:32I would never, ever wear black and yellow, let alone root for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

02:39And you're not even like...

02:41I know you grew up in Cleveland, your people, Browns people.

02:44You're not even a Browns fan, but you're just like, I can't...

02:46Yeah, I just hate Pittsburgh, man.

02:49The teams.

02:49Yeah, the teams.

02:50I hate black and yellow, man.

02:52I don't even like the Wiz Khalifa song, black and yellow.

02:55I just can't do it, man.

02:57The city's great.

02:58The stadiums are great.

02:59The restaurants are great.

03:00The airport is one of the best airports in America.

03:03But I'm with you.

03:05The Pittsburgh teams, I'm just, nah.

03:07Yeah.

03:07And the crazy thing is, they be having some great players that I will take any one of

03:12them players outside of Big Ben.

03:14But I would take every one of their players.

03:16But just for them playing in Pittsburgh, I'm just like, nah.

03:19Do you have another one?

03:20Well, I wanted to read this one because I also agree with it from the 5-1-2.

03:24Peyton Manning.

03:26Peyton Manning is my hypocrisy.

03:29And here's the thing.

03:30I love Peyton Manning.

03:31You remember the time period?

03:32Because it feels like in any sport, you've got to have the, you know, who's the greatest?

03:35Do you take this guy?

03:36Who's your guy?

03:37This guy or that guy?

03:38I was very strongly at Peyton Manning over Tom Brady.

03:40I was.

03:40Well, I don't know if I was that far.

03:41I was very strongly on that side.

03:43I was not.

03:44I was very strongly on that side.

03:45But yeah, he was just out here killing the Texans dead.

03:48The city of Nashville.

03:50I mean, that's a, it's not even an hour and a half flight, man.

03:53You can get to Nashville.

03:54You can go to the Opry.

03:55You can go to the, you know, all the strip there.

03:57I forget what it's called.

03:59The water.

04:00What, Broadway?

04:01Is that what we're talking about?

04:01Is it Broadway?

04:02Yeah, Broadway.

04:03It's just a beautiful, awesome city.

04:04I need to visit there.

04:06Live music.

04:07You know, just every, it's an awesome, awesome, awesome show.

04:12I was like, I hate their teams and their owners.

04:15How many, how many teams do they got?

04:16They got one.

04:16Yeah.

04:16I was like, how many teams do we talk about here?

04:18They got the Predators, don't they?

04:19Yeah, they got the Predators.

04:20Yeah, they do have the Preds.

04:21They do have the Preds.

04:22Don't the Preds be out there throwing fish on ice all the damn time?

04:26Yeah.

04:26What is wrong with them?

04:27Shohei.

04:28Shohei.

04:29Shohei is my modern.

04:30Let's go Dodgers.

04:31Shohei is my modern day Peyton.

04:33Because I was always so torn when the Texans faced the Colts.

04:37Obviously, you want the Texans to win, but I was a Peyton fan.

04:39Now, obviously, he's a Dodger.

04:40But I'm a big Ohtani fan.

04:43All right.

04:44How about this from the 832?

04:46They said their sports hypocrisy loved, loved them some LT, some Lawrence Taylor,

04:50and his possibly drug-fueled aggression.

04:53Hated Mark Gassineau.

04:55Well, he was a Jet.

04:57Oh, Miss New York in general.

04:59I got you.

04:59Yeah.

05:01281, they said John Stockton would love if they were on my team.

05:04Hate him to death.

05:05Yeah, I'm sorry.

05:06I respect where you're coming from.

05:08Both of them, Utah Cats.

05:09I never like anybody on Utah.

05:12The only person, honestly, was Donovan Mitchell.

05:14And I'm like, bro, you should not even be there, man.

05:17I don't think he wanted to be.

05:18He wants to be.

05:18You should not be there.

05:20Oh, man.

05:20Yeah, that's a good one.

05:23I feel like one of the ones that's rough, and you know what?

05:27Sometimes you just have to lean into that hypocrisy, especially when it deals with your team.

05:31I believe very strongly in the idea that nut punchers will never prosper.

05:36Like, you just out here kicking people in the junk, right, for no good reason.

05:40You shouldn't prosper.

05:42I do feel bad for Chris Paul.

05:43Like, Chris Paul is a habitual, not just nut puncher, but then also, like, he's the tattletale.

05:50Like, ooh, you don't got to respect that, except he's one of the greatest point guards that we've seen.

05:54He's one of the best there's been.

05:55I don't know how to make that dichotomy shake, but they both exist.

06:008-3-2, they said theirs is liking Dak Prescott but hating the Cowboys.

06:04How many of those players do that?

06:06I'm kind of there.

06:07I'm kind of there.

06:08I'll take it a step further, and y'all might throw me out of here for this.

06:11I actually have no issue with the team, the Dallas Cowboys team.

06:16I have an issue with the fans.

06:19It's the fans that make me not like the team.

06:22That's a whole other sub-stack.

06:24I have no issue with the Dallas Cowboys as a team.

06:29Yeah, but Jerry Jones and all that.

06:30I can't get there with you.

06:31I will say this, and you reminded me of one, the University of Notre Dame.

06:39I've been there so many times back in my previous life covering college football,

06:42and every time I walked on that campus, I was like awestruck, and the tradition, you know,

06:48and coming from A&M, I can relate, and the actual gold they put in their helmets, and it's just so freaking awesome.

06:55And I can't hate that team more.

06:58I can't hate that team more.

07:00Yeah, I'm kind of, I mean, obviously, I'm like that with Michigan, the University of Michigan.

07:05But I have no issue with the city of Detroit.

07:07I have no issue with the Tigers or the Lions and all that stuff.

07:12It's just that team.

07:13It's just Michigan.

07:14What about the fight song?

07:16I don't care about the fight song.

07:17I like their fight song.

07:18Nah, I don't.

07:18It's one of the greats.

07:20Ooh, that's one of those.

07:21I hadn't even thought about it.

07:22College football offers some really interesting situations where I know there's teams that I go, eh,

07:27and I hear the fight song, and I'm like.

07:27You start tapping your toe.

07:31On the YouTube page, this is a really good one, because I think a lot of people fall in line with this.

07:38Hated Brady on the Patriots, loved him on the bus.

07:40Yes.

07:41I think there's a lot of people that, I can honestly say, kept that same energy, right?

07:45However, I get, there's a lot of people for whom that changed.

07:48I would like to know why that is.

07:50I think it was the Patriots' longevity of success.

07:53You know, the length of their success, you just had enough of it.

07:57Yeah.

07:57And, okay, how much of that is also than Boston sports fans, going back to the sports fans?

08:02Yeah.

08:03Yeah, that's true.

08:03Yeah.

08:04Honestly, just the arrogance and all of their damn teams winning something.

08:09I quite enjoy this new iteration of Patriots, especially because Drake May is like, he looks

08:14You know, that's so bizarre.

08:15We'll talk about this a little bit more with Thursday Night Football.

08:18I'm with you.

08:18I'm like, I like this guy.

08:20I love Mike Grable.

08:21But the Patriots, again?

08:24They were down bad for four years, and they're going to try and pretend like they was down

08:27and out for a long year.

08:28Y'all had four years.

08:30Try 23.

08:30Right.

08:31Try 23.

08:32Anybody worried about this?

08:34Yes.

08:34And then just the whole title town of it all.

08:36I don't really love that.

08:377-1-3, Kobe.

08:39That is a good one.

08:40That is a really good one.

08:41Because I don't think I'm really in a place where I have a hypocrisy there.

08:45I just know that my take, that I believe to be reasoned, is never going to be one that

08:50I can reason with the people that absolutely love Kobe Bryant, because it's not about reason.

08:54It's about the way they feel.

08:55It's like, hey, every time y'all want to talk about the greatest of all time, y'all go

08:58LeBron, MJ, and then the Kobe fans want to slide him in there, no, he don't deserve

09:01to be here.

09:02That's fine.

09:03We can talk.

09:03I love him.

09:04He's a great player.

09:05We don't have to do that.

09:05And of course, that's not going to go over very well.

09:11No, of course.

09:13There are definitely some Colts in here.

09:15And then 7-1-3, Eugene T.Y. Hilton, someone said.

09:20Yeah.

09:20Which, yep, that one's right.

09:22Okay, I was about to say, is that any way worse than Peyton Manning?

09:26But there's no way.

09:26There's no way that that's worse than Peyton Manning.

09:27No, no.
