00:00But the overall point is simple, you can't have a violent thug in charge of people, and there needs to
00:08be repercussions.
00:09And under that ridiculous statement, in which he's not tough enough to do, you've cried on the internet,
00:14because then I had to figure out what's Dave Portnoy about.
00:16You cry on the internet constantly.
00:19You were crying because somebody threw pennies at you.
00:22Oh my God, they threw pennies.
00:24And now you're Mr. Tough Guy.
00:25What are you, you're a fake mob boss.
00:27Like that's lunatic stuff.
00:29You're a maniac.
00:30And the people, I'm going to say this out loud, every single one of you that follow him, all of
00:35you,
00:35that think that statement was somehow okay because of a Caitlyn Clark sports take, you're crazy too.
00:41And I don't care whether you like me or anybody else.
00:44And I don't care.
00:45That applies to everybody in the world and not just me.
00:47If someone says something about sports that isn't personal, that doesn't attack a person's character,
00:52or hell, even if it does, are we all going to be comfortable where we're now telling people out loud,
00:58that we should cut their tongue out, especially from a guy who, again, is a bitch and wouldn't do it
01:05if he was here.
01:07You see, everything I say online, I have a rule.
01:10This is how I was raised.
01:11He was raised differently.
01:12He was raised more poorly.
01:13I was raised that everything I say in a microphone, I have to be willing to say to the person's
01:20face.
01:21Therefore, Jalen Brown, for example, I said something strong about that.
01:24If he was here, I would absolutely tell Jalen Brown, I hope you never win again for the rest of
01:30your life when it comes to the Celtics.
01:31I want Jalen Brown, whatever team he plays for, to lose forever.
01:35And I feel very comfortable telling that.
01:37But notice how that's not violent.
01:40Then underneath the post, again, his disciples, very strange people, decided to discuss it like it was a sports point.
01:47That's not a sports point.
01:49At that point, the merit of the sports point or lack of merit in the sports point no longer matters
01:55because some idiot is now raising the stakes to a point that he's not comfortable with.
02:01He's not built for this.
02:03Okay?
02:03What happens now?
02:05He doesn't know me, by the way.
02:06I don't know him.
02:07I don't follow him.
02:08He doesn't follow me.
02:09So to do that, that means at some point, because I work in New York City, I'm going to run
02:13into him.
02:15Is he okay if I was to follow up with the same energy that he had?
02:20You know he's not built for it.
02:22And this is where we have to draw a line.
02:25Okay?
02:26I don't care again.
02:27I talk about sports.
02:29I try to have fun.
02:31And honestly, I never think about, well, will this person like me?
02:34Will this person not like me?
02:35Because that doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things.
02:38The only thing that actually matters is, are we having entertaining content to talk about?
02:45Okay?
02:46And then does that content go over some personal line where it becomes out of bounds?
02:52Okay?
02:53Now, saying that you think Paige Beckers is a better basketball player than Kaitlin Clark, which I do,
03:00and saying that you believe the future of the sport isn't with one damn player also true is not a
03:08problem.
03:09The problem is, can you put the tweet on the screen one more time, please, if you guys don't mind?
03:14To say, the guy who called her Jeremy Lynn should have his tongue cut out is clearly over the line,
03:23especially, again, when you're a bitch.
03:25You're not built to talk like that.
03:28What do you think you are, some fake mob boss you're not built for?
03:33So, this is what I'm going to assume, though, that, yes, he's a maniac or he needs some help with
03:40alcohol.
03:41Because I'm thinking about it.
03:42It's Friday night.
03:43He's sitting at home.
03:44By the way, in that game in which he decided I should get my tongue cut out, she shot 10
03:49for 28, and they lost.
03:5010 for 28, and they lost.
03:5210 for 28, and they lost.
03:54So, if that wasn't even the right time,
03:56I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt, Dave, and give you an opportunity to apologize.
04:01You drank too much that night.
04:03You had too much to drink, and you said something stupid, and you regret it.
04:07I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt, because otherwise, you're a maniac, and you need help either
04:11way.
04:11But I'm going to ask you, as a friend, because clearly, the people around you aren't your friends,
04:17because they allow you to talk like that and get away with it.
04:19I'm going to be your friend, one you clearly badly need.
04:23Get some help.
04:25Either get your commotions under control and know how to act, especially when you're talking to another grown man you
04:30don't know,
04:33or get help for your alcoholism, one or the other.
04:36And that's giving you every benefit of the doubt.
04:39So, you're welcome.
04:41Also, that take about Caitlin Clark, as far as being a hot take, that came out of the freezer for
04:46me.
04:46I'm just going to tell you, that one's fresh out the freezer.
04:48I have takes as hot as this studio.
04:51I have takes as hot as where you're going to go talking like that.
04:55Trust me.
04:56Okay?
04:57So, again, I'm sorry to start the show like this.
05:00I don't like to start shows like this.
05:02I like to just talk about sports, okay?
05:04And for the rest of the show, I promise that fraud won't come up, that maniac, that problematic, whatever he
05:10is,
05:10is not going to come up anymore today.
05:12The rest of the show, we'll just talk about sports.
05:16But somebody around him, get him help.
05:18And let's not pretend, each and every one of you that look up to him, like that's normal sports conversation
05:24because it's not.
05:26And if we get to the point where that's normal sports conversation, then some people's safety is going to be
05:32in jeopardy.
05:33And I am telling you, if it's Dave Portnoy or me, it's not my safety that's in jeopardy.
05:38So let's not do that, okay?
05:40Because I am not a tough guy.
05:42I am a mild-mannered, suburban guy, just happy to be working in New York City.
05:46But I will tell you this right now.
05:48Threaten me again.
05:50Threaten me again.
05:51Threaten me again.
