00:07live from honor brewing in louden you said it's technically sterling to me i thought it was
00:14ashburn bottom line is we're going to be at honor brewing which is at 42 604 trade west drive
00:22technically in sterling it's a great spot it's very cool we were last there for the nfc championship
00:28game yeah a little preview yeah a little pregame hype with with the eagles it was it was pretty it
00:34was pretty cool we had a great turnout too but we're gonna have the show uh from six our show
00:39from 6 30 till 8 and then grant danny will pop on right at the start of the draft and
00:44i don't know
00:44how long they'll probably go till the end of the draft 6 30 to 8 yeah 6 38 yeah they're
00:49going 8 to
00:4911 that's what they're scheduled to do yeah um but it's honor brewing it's a good spot they say this
00:54year i remember cakes mentioned it now they're going eight minutes between picks on 10 eight
00:58minutes limiting it a little bit so it'll be a little bit quicker quicker yeah that's cool
01:02yeah that'll be great so come on out say hello the draft's going to be really fun uh lots of
01:07stories
01:08i mean we're going to be a big we're going to be a big player in it you know right
01:10there in the top
01:11seven i've heard some people say that they think it's kind of like in terms of game changers like
01:16you know pre-draft hype whatever it's a seven player draft so we're right there we're right on the
01:21edge of it as far as getting like a like a game changer blue chipper yeah uh type guy i
01:28mean just
01:28like in every draft there'll be studs drafted at 20 or 24 at least some guy in the sixth round
01:3327 yeah
01:33i mean but in terms of pre-draft hype that's kind of kind of thing i mean there's some big
01:38names in
01:39the top seven so it's not where you want to be because it means you had a terrible season the
01:43year
01:43before but it's kind of exciting when you're in the mix and you know you're going to get a really
01:49good player yep and i don't think they're going to trade up i don't even think they're going to
01:54trade down i don't think they're going to trade up yeah and and and even adam peters acknowledged
01:58that almost right away he's like i don't see us trading up yeah um but we're not going to actively
02:03try to trade down but they're open to it although there is a report and we'll talk about it later
02:08um where somebody's uh claiming that they actually are kind of screaming that they want to trade out
02:14of seven so we'll get to that i think at the seven o'clock hour i mean if there's a
02:17stud sitting
02:18there just waving his hands it's number seven i'd be surprised if they trade down i just don't know
02:22how you could do that in a vacuum you have to see how it plays out yeah you got to
02:26see who's there
02:26who's available that's why the giants trade was kind of interesting to me you know when you make a
02:30trade like that uh before the drafts even started i guess there was unhappiness they wanted to get
02:35move on from it so you just be done with it um and certainly giants fans are thrilled although
02:40kind pointed out that you know you're not going to get a player in all likelihood with the with
02:46that pick that's as good as dexter lawrence you're just gonna get younger you're gonna get younger
02:50maybe eventually that's hard to get better yeah yeah yeah i mean because he spent the first six
02:55or seven years with the giant he was their first round pick in uh i don't know 2017 or something
03:01like
03:01that maybe 2018 and um you know he was very good player you know out of clemson very good player
03:07actually 2019 sorry he was the 17th pick in 2019 but they could not come to an agreement with the
03:13a deal and i know they were kind of negotiating but there was an impasse and they said all right
03:18done we'll send them to the bangles who had the worst defense in the league uh and the bangles
03:23sent them a pick so they got two of the top 10 picks the giants all right let's what let's
03:27open up
03:27the junkie sports page it is brought to you by open road that's right elevate your home bar with
03:32open road distilling company spirits locally crafted and rested you find eagle eye rye maple old
03:39fashion independence bourbon now available at abc stores in northern virginia all right so that's
03:45the big deal is the dexter lawrence trade in the nfl here pre-draft um star defensive tackle requested
03:52a trade earlier in the month after his team reached an impasse with the franchise regarding a new deal
03:58and the bangles were quick uh to jump on it they gave the number 10 pick to the giant so
04:04now
04:04the giants have the number five and the number 10 um the giant the bangles quickly signed a one-year
04:13extension with dexter lawrence for 28 million so i'm sure they're going to work on something long
04:17term but what's interesting the bangles ranked 31st in total defense allowed almost 381 yards
04:24per game and number 30 in scoring defense almost 29 per game so they need help defensively
04:30what's what's what's interesting is it's kind of unlike the bangles to be kind of big players like
04:36that and you know take on a big salary i mean the assumption i think i read i'm sure if
04:41you mentioned
04:41it just now but they've already agreed to like a one-year session 28 mil yeah um so i mean
04:47it's very
04:47unlike a very uh frugal old school but i mean they've given burrow and chase huge money right they've
04:56they've addressed the offense it's different than it than it's in you know different front office
05:01changes and higgins they gave higgins and bur and uh burrow and yeah and chase a lot of money well
05:06some of those guys you kind of have to keep them you don't want to be players yep now apparently
05:12lawrence had one of his worst years maybe his worst year as a pro he only had 31 tackles and
05:18just a
05:19half a sack in 17 games played so guys fans are ready to move on hardball has no allegiance i'm
05:24sure
05:24i'm sure there you go yep how much of a jump do you think they make just because they've got
05:29a
05:29hardball i guess a lot depends on jackson jackson art yeah and scadaboo's health correct well and
05:36neighbors they had a lot of injuries last season but also you don't have the the ravens drafting for
05:42him you know what i mean so we'll see uh we'll see how they do i mean i'm sure he
05:47can coach you
05:47would think players i was gonna say just based on reputation you would think that would be
05:51better i don't know how much better but they'll be better yeah maybe not a significant jump this
05:56year but let's see what happens with um dart does dart get better does he stay healthy he likes to
06:03run around get out of the pocket i like i like dart i think he's got a nice solid skill
06:07set i would
06:08bet on him a little bit i wouldn't put a lot of money on him but i bet a little
06:11bit on him yeah but
06:12jason's right he takes a lot of hits it's kind of the same deal as jayden daniel i would think
06:16you
06:16would figure that out you know um so the like i said last segment the mock draft that i was
06:22looking
06:22at after the giants made the deal with the bangles had the giants at five taking jordan tyson the wide
06:29receiver out of arizona state at number 10 they had them taking uh spencer for no the ot out of
06:35utah
06:35so they addressed that's just this one mock draft but they did have the commanders taking carnell tate at
06:41seven and bypassing a defensive stud sunny styles go went right before them to the cowboys who traded
06:49up to six so we'll see what happens uh on thursday night what they do at seven does jeremiah love
06:56slip
06:56do they jump on him if he's at seven i think if love is there i think they'd sprint up
07:01uh to get
07:03him you might be right hard and to go get him be hard to pass on him does someone like
07:07arvel reese
07:08slip down to seven when they jump on him does someone like david bailey slip down to seven
07:13every mock i've seen has bailey going top three so i'd be surprised if bailey slipped to seven but
07:19most of the mocks i've seen has they all have reese number two yeah reese and bailey going really high
07:24mendoza's going one we know that so it's basically two through seven i don't believe mendoza's attending
07:30the draft right mendoza's gonna hang out with his family in miami that's on brand it's fine it's on
07:37respect that yeah of course uh i believe when burrow was selected wasn't he at home with his
07:42family i think that's right i know trevor lawrence was i'm not sure maybe burrow was i think he was
07:47yeah baker mayfield was yeah so yeah there's been a few quarterbacks selected one overall that just
07:54didn't want to go to whatever the draft site was yeah and the draft site of course is in pittsburgh
07:59this year it's very great sports now yep absolutely so mr flame you'd be proud of me
08:06i actually watched a couple of the nba playoff games not start to finish but i watched a lot of
08:13that orlando game a significant amount i watched a few so home teams are eight are seven and one in
08:20the first round of the playoffs the only road team to win was orlando winning at detroit but i watched
08:26uh some of the south sixers i watched how was it bludgeoning it was budging i watched some of the
08:32magic pistons i didn't watch much of the thunder suns i was kind of watching golf that also was a
08:36bloodbath yeah selts win i mean i brought this up last year and you guys kind of chided me i
08:43think
08:43the first round being best of seven is kind of ridiculous because i know that every once in a
08:49while there's an upset and there's some series which can surprise you but for the most part when
08:55you have the thunder suns yeah likely going to be a four zippy right like what are we doing uh
09:02say
09:02the celtics just completely annihilated uh i mean just some of these games this weekend were just
09:08not competitive so you think it should be best of five well they they want the money i i i'm
09:14i'm
09:14intrigued by best of three oh in the first round yeah they'll never do that or best of five and
09:21then
09:21the second round could be best of five and then when you get to the conference finals go best of
09:25seven well used to be best of five yeah and then they expanded but yeah selts win by what's that
09:3132
09:32thunder pounded the suns won 19 to 84 magic get a huge win on the road win by 11 at
09:38detroit
09:38cunningham was pretty much the only guy who showed up uh offensively for for detroit and then the spurs
09:43beat the portland trailblazers on saturday the calves the nuggets the knicks and lakers all home teams
09:50all won game one so they went four no on saturday and three and one on sunday they did a
09:57bit at
09:57halftime yesterday of the magic pistons game where they came in and gave the finalists i don't know
10:03if you guys saw that for rookie of the year mvp and coach of the year and that certainly uh
10:10the rookies
10:10of the year and the and the mvps were all they're just givens like you know it cooper flag
10:15um con knipple and i can't remember who the third one was guessing edgecombe yeah edgecombe yeah and
10:21then for mvp it was your standard um shea joker wenby and then coaches was missoula vickerstaff
10:31and i can't remember who the third one was but pretty standard probably the guy from the spurs
10:36yeah exactly yeah um i didn't see i mean yes you can say it's standard but i mean luka donchich
10:42was averaging 40 for a month he could have been a top three guy who'd you bump wemby
10:49probably wemby yeah yeah but wemby had a great game last night those are the finalists when do
10:56they announce the actual winners they wait a couple rounds for that yeah usually i think
11:02yeah i think usually it's in the like when they're in the conference final stage but i'm not positive
11:08grab do you remember when they do that i think jp's right i think it's in a like a month
11:12i mean
11:12it'd be hard to bump wemby he averaged 25 and 12 and shot 52 percent blocks i mean it'd be
11:19hard
11:19i understand why you'd say that but i mean it's 34 8.8 i know but wemby is just a
11:26complete stud he's a
11:27difference maker big time difference maker and and yokich he's not gonna win the mvp he averaged a
11:33triple double i know i would almost doubles are so standard they would almost if luka doesn't get
11:40hurt and if you wanted to include luka i'd almost put four in there i think wemby has to be
11:44in there
11:45you know what i mean so let's see and then jalen brown had a great year too for the for
11:50the celtics
11:51who overachieved and he doesn't make the top three but look you got to make choices so tonight you got
11:56game two toronto and cleveland in cleveland that's seven o'clock tip you've got game two hawks and
12:03knicks in new york also game two they're uh starting at eight and then at 10 30 t wolves and
12:10nuggets so
12:11just three games tonight in the nba playoffs but i do think once you get to the second round it's
12:16going
12:16to be really really interesting like in the east three or four teams could come out in the west
12:23it's likely thunder spurs one two in in the conference finals but but the nuggets the nuggets
12:31are a scary team and remember they took oklahoma city to seven last year yeah so i think those three
12:37teams all have a shot to get to the i'm just glad the playoffs are here because it's just better
12:41basketball it seemed like the regular season lasted for 100 games in the last you know month and a half
12:47two months you had all those blowouts and the tank-a-thon it was just awful so i'm just glad
12:51the
12:51playoffs are here and the games mean something and i'm still holding out hope i think luca could
12:56come back in game three the lakers winning that game one now kevin durant didn't play right so that
13:03was huge because the rockets were favored to win but when kevin durant i guess suffered a knee injury
13:08in practice he sits out game one the lakers steal that if they can extend that series and get luca
13:15and
13:15then ultimately austin reeves back then maybe they could make some noise in the west to get the
13:20superstar back and see what happens uh in baseball this weekend you had the gnats beating the giants
13:27last night or yesterday three zippy um i watched the almost the entire game the day before that went
13:34into the what 12th 13th inning whatever the hell that was they finally lost that one they got some
13:39fight to them it's not gonna be a great team but they got some spunk to them they do and
13:42then they
13:42crazy thing is right now the guy that they had signed or just on i think on saturday andrew alvarez
13:47pitching his first game got this got the win yeah the crazy thing right now is if you were to
13:52look
13:52at the standings they're ahead of both the mets and the phillies well the mets are just in a tailspin
13:59they've lost 11 straight right what is going on there it's just they can't hit they can't pitch
14:04it's almost like they don't even care based on some of the the post-game comments from some of
14:09these players it's wild and mendoza a boatload of money and everything everybody had a high
14:12expectation they've got the second highest payroll yeah it's crazy now soto's been out for a couple
14:17weeks all right so that that certainly hurts but they've got all these big names and i mean 11
14:22straight losses for a 300 million dollar payroll that's embarrassing seven and 15 right now yeah the
14:29the braves are running away with the nle's they got a five-game lead already and we're not even to
14:33april 22nd look they can't hit the nationals have probably been performing above expectations really
14:41carried by james wood and cj abrams offensively they have 121 runs the mets have 72 yeah they've
14:47been terrible 72 runs in 22 games i mean 11 straight losses they had a one nothing lead going in
14:53the ninth
14:53last night devin williams loses it um so they've lost 11 straight now they play
14:59at home that were off and then the uh i believe minnesota's coming to to new york let's start a
15:07nine game homestand with an 11 game losing streak um and i'm sure the mets fans will be booing are
15:13your boys mets fans or yankees fans oh they're huge mets fans oh they're probably no benny's distraught
15:18i'm sure he is distraught i'm sorry a 300 million dollar payroll should not lose 11 games in a row
15:24shouldn't well i'm looking at this the projections they were like if this is accurate they were like
15:2957 percent uh to go to the playoffs prior to the season starting right so they had them anywhere
15:36from 85 wins to 92 wins in that range that was the projection and it's dropped to what i don't
15:42know
15:42what it is at the moment i'm significantly lower but the gnats improved to 10 and 12 so now the
15:48gnats
15:48will play the red hot braves the braves come here for four starting tonight at 6 45 it's going to
15:55be
15:55bryce elder against jake ervin um so the braves have been hot they've won nine of 11 and they come
16:02in their bats are hot the pitchers are really good by the way speaking of when i watch that game
16:06on
16:07saturday i was kind of chilling around the house i had it on the whole time um the gnats would
16:12be
16:12great if they sent over some of those blue dc unis and hats or whatever i'd love that i'd love
16:19to rock
16:19some of that on the show just remember they did send a hat and you bypassed it or you get
16:24you
16:24didn't realize i thought i was being uh magnanimous or whatever thought i was being a generous uh one
16:32of the guys here i can't remember if i said they asked me walker maybe maybe and i just said
16:36here
16:36just you guys take it there's a lot of the stuff that i don't necessarily need another coaster or
16:42whatever yeah you take it then i saw the hat i was bitter huh seven and three eights would love
16:48i would love i like those blue unis whatever they call them the old unis the dc whatever they are
16:54i'm surprised i mean we've asked for stuff before i mean they got a guy that gives out all that
16:59stuff
16:59he's a huge fan of the show huge fan i'm surprised there is not a box of stuff or boxes
17:02you got a bag
17:03right good baggy might yeah i mean i would think that it's definitely going to happen yeah um if we
17:09just uh
17:10you know give more shout outs but i would love to to wear some of the new stuff i do
17:15i know i like
17:15it i would love it i like it but um anyway last but not least in golf this past weekend
17:21you had the
17:22rbc heritage signature golf event no cut all the big names great finish a huge purse and the winner
17:31goes to matt fitzpatrick who had a one pop lead going into 18 and and bogeyed first bogey in 29
17:39holes
17:39yeah no and scheffler um had an unbelievable chip to about eight inches he parred so they went to a
17:46playoff but fitzpatrick it's an unbelievable shot in the second makes a birdie scheffler did not so
17:53matt fitzpatrick wins 3.6 million and beats out scott scheffler so 3.6 million for the rbc yeah well
18:01it's a signature event so it's bigger than the purse is bigger than most i think i picked zander to
18:05finish top 10 and a one shot out of it he finished tied for 12 missed it by one shot
18:10i was gonna go
18:10with ricky but i didn't have confidence and ricky finished uh top 10 yeah so my parlay pick was
18:16terrible i think dravy said his hit lamella lamella ball double double gave you five assists he was
18:23gonna give you the points just yeah well that was what was always in they got smashed in that game
18:28right yeah so he wins the rbc and john rom won the live event in mexico city of course the
18:35live
18:36tour is coming to trump in i don't know a couple weeks three weeks um there's been some uh
18:42price will hopefully be there he pulled out yep after the third round uh with some wrist soreness
18:49he didn't play in the final round so they have four rounds now yeah they have four rounds because
18:54for a while live was just three days right yep yeah for for several years yeah this is the first
18:58year this is the way they can get some ranking points you know i don't even know can't even pay
19:02attention i think they do yeah i think they wear i think they do i think they still do the
19:05shorts bit
19:06i know you're not a fan of the shorts i actually don't love shorts and golfers myself included i wear
19:13them when it's 85 degrees but i think golfers are better in pants in golf pants personally yeah i mean
19:19this is i just think you look i mean it's mostly cities or you know tournaments it's hot so
19:25yeah obviously the guys are much more comfortable wearing the shorts yeah i understand uh real quick
19:30i mean i mean i don't know what this kid's doing but the the wide receiver zachariah branch
19:36from georgia yep they had their spring it was a spring game weekend and after the game he was
19:43arrested early sunday morning i think at like 1 30 in the morning on one charge of obstructing
19:50public sidewalks and streets prowling and one of uh charge of obstruction of a law enforcement
19:56official according to the athens clark county arrest log both charges are misdemeanors but that's not
20:03good he's a projected second round or maybe third rounder that he gets arrested me draft week now did
20:09you say exactly what the details of it were um that's that's all i read was that he was arrested
20:15on just obstructing basically yeah like i think he might be getting hosed here or he's just being a
20:20jerk but the cop wanted him to step back further from some incident and i guess he didn't do that
20:25now obviously you listen to a cop yeah um maybe he felt like he was in the right he was
20:30far enough
20:31away who knows nothing good happens at 1 30 in the morning anyway that's true right but at least
20:36they didn't arrest him for something crazy yeah and it was a 39 bond it's not nothing serious
20:41but and i'm not sure if it'll affect his draft status but it's just it just looks bad probably
20:45not but it's not a great decision making it's terrible no 1-800-636-1067 is the number if you
20:51want to chime in we're the junkies coming right back
