Let's go ahead and start the podcast. shall we This episode is presented by EXinity. Hello He And welcome to Casuals, the sports podcast that's sitting on the floor of an Airb in Mill Valley, California. Hi. Welcome to Casuals. We're also the sports podcast for people that maybe don't listen to a lot of sports podcasts, but we think sports are for everybody. And so we're here to talk about the exciting stuff And my God, do we have so much exciting stuff to talk about today? I'm Katie Nolan, your host. Ag, coming to you from a not where I thoughtought n where I thought I'd be coming to you from. I'll tell you that much. I certainly got ready for the airport today and I' spent quite a bit of time there. Also, I would like to thank everyone who works at airports. Because they're in a good place. It feels like flights are doing well. I mine? Thanks for asking. Delayed, delayed, delayed. half an hour at a time only for them to eventually just l it. The pilot himself came over the lout and he said, Hey, so just so you know, even when the guy you're waiting for, your first mate, even when he gets here I'm going to have to clock out. FAA regulations. So fit under fifty percent chance they find a pilot for your flight. If I were you I'd rebook and me, I believed I believe they'd figure it out And they didn't. And so by the time I rebooked, anyyway, I'll be home tomorrow. So point is we decided that we would we had to get Isabella's reactions and everything on tape And so we're bringing you a podcast. It's a little weird. and I only explain it because if you're watching on YouTube, you're like, why are you sitting on the floor? Can you even see the rug I'm sitting on? I'm sitting on this like Very comfy bear rug. O. I'm at a lovely Again, it's a lovely place to have a terrible day. and I had an incredible weekend so I can't complain. And I know Isabella did as well. But if the podcast is a little weird today, it's because we're throwing it together. Yeah guys, I don't have shoes on. It feels weird to record the podcast with no shoes. It's a lot about this feels very strange, but I do believe in the quality of the content and I know that it's going to be worth discussing. We have a lot to get to. We're going to talk about. Oh, I have to introduce that the casualties are here Obviously not all of them, Chris is still. despite everything that's happened since. We're all different people since we last saw Chris. But he's still in Australia on his little walkab about, but we are joined today by Buba,,,, Brady. Literally never have shoes on, so this isn't that strange. Always report from your house. So this is normal as hell for you but not for I was almost to be barefoot and I was like, can't draw the line And put your socks on. Yeah. Me too. You can't have your toes out On the podcast. Okay. And you know where you love her. I can't call her a sports new because today she's a champion. Hell yeah. Isabella. Hello. Hi Hi. Casuals acid known at Gmail. com is where you can email us. six four six eightzer one zero ero four three is our voicemail. On IG and TikTok, we are at Casual is the podcast. Isabella, how does it feel Honestly kind of craz it's like I'm waiting to like scream but I'm still processing almost. It's crazy. It's crazy. I was As soon as it happened, like even when it was just like er two seconds, I was like, I don't know. They could lose it. They could lose it. they could lose this lead, but no, it was so exciting. That's what it feels like. That's sports fandom, if I've ever heard. You're like, I'm not ready to celebrate until until the bo off Yes until it is for certain. Isabella' Nicks won the championship. Guys. she is a champion. The New York Kicks did it in five Pretty inconvenient. I would have loved them to do it in six Would have been a lot easier for me. Would have been a lot more fun to see what happened with the World Cup W that game six in New York Well the fans, but did you see? I mean, the World Cup collided with it anyway. because they were coming back from that game and people spilled out into the streets We're going to just spend a lot of time talking about what Isabella saw, what Isabella felt, what Isabella is going to do maybe for Thursday. We got a parade coming through New York City on Thursday, quite a few days away I know. I thought it was going be like maybe Tuesday. Me too. And I from what I heard, I'm not like plugged into the New York City public school system like that, but I heard that's when regents are if you're from this area, that means you've got to it's a big test you gott to take. Yeah, That's tough That's tough. Hopefully somebody steps in and reschedules. You cannot have your big test the same day as the parade. No one's gonna to take the test. Well, you saw Jose Alvarado just get straight off the plane. They landed when off the plane for the Puert Rican day parade. I had wondered So we have an update from that because I had written it down as something to keep an eye on once I landed And then as I'll remind you, we never did that. So I'm still here He did actually make it to the Puerto Ricoadeade fantastic. Yeah he was there with He wass on the float with Zoon and I think Jordan Clarkson too. Amazing. That's amazing. What an incredible. We have so many aspects of this to talk about. And I still if we can find time stillill need to talk to you about what happened in game four, whichich I know is like a million years ago and doesn't matter anymore What a comeback No, honestly, that's the game that I'm still feeling so many emotions for more than winning the chip. I think I' still like I not believe. I could not believe that. My brother was in town and he was like, oh, you guys going at any Nick's watchatch parties? And you know, Dan and I We're very boring. We like to sit at home and we're not Nicks fans. So we're not like we love and support Although I think I did see this weekend. I think I think Myrtle's a Nicks fan. Y She said N and Sick. so she was wrong. Myrtle, the dog. my dog is at How does she know. She doesn't know nothing. She ain' She's not Bessie. she doesn't know ball So she have you run into Bessie knows Ball yet? Anyone other than me is my new favorite pundit on TikTo. Her name is Bess. is does she wear a backwards cap? No, she wears bucket hats. all different kinds and shapes and colors of bucket hats. You wouldn't believe a woman has that many bucket hats, but she does And she wears thick black eyeliner And she talks like this directly into the camera. Victor Wembenyama. Wh have you been on the car? She's crazy. I'm obsessed with her. What were we actually talking about? Myrtle, not know inv. The comeback. We were talking about the comeback. My brother was in town. He was like, You guys going to any watch parties? I was like No. why don't you check you should definitely go. they could win it all tonight or they could it wasn't. It was game four. so they couldn't. But I was like, go check out the game and we'll see you after. comeome by here after And he came by at the half. He was like, gameess over, basically. So I'll just watch the rest of it with you guys. And then the world's greatest comeback. And my poor brother who is he's an extrovert and I'm an introvert. And so he was probably like, I could have been out there for this. He's just with Dan me and Dan just sitting and watching it Um But what a what an incredible Come back I think that was probably my first sports experience where I had a meltdown That I'm a little too I don't think I could talk about it publicly I think we should try our best because I do find this to be good content. So what do you mean by that? Say more. It was like we were getting further and further down and I was just like, I stood up and I was like, you know what, like forget this.ike it's fine.ike We basically lost. we lost a lead. This is just what happens. likeike the Kicks like you think that they're gonna advance, whatever. I walk to I want to storm out of the living room I start crying L with the hawks, I start crying. And I was just like, my boyfriend was like, it's okay. you don't know. you don't know. it's like only like halftim. they could come back And I was like no, and like you like rooting against them is making the experience even worse right now. And boy, Was I happy? A the Oh God chang. When did I become silent in the last like minute and a half of this game? And when they won I was just silent. I was like, yeah, I think I' look kind of stupid if I were to cheer right now after just crying for during one. That's the real experience. Exactly the experience. I'm fascinated by the boyfriend angle. I really I'm really How is he didid he congratulate you at all? Her boyfriend is a Nets fan, a loyal the world only remaining Brooklyn Nets fans. is her boyfriend and he is not backing down. He is not joining He is not on the bandwagon. He He has to watch you who has been recently reinvigorated in your fandom Yeah enjoy basketball at home and he has not had that experience. Yeah no. He he congratulated me. He was like as soon as they won, he was like, o, okay, This is a really big win for you guys. likeike congratulations. It's really big of him. Fucking hate this. Yeah. He hates it He's like, I'm happy for you. I'm like thanks. Did he do you happen to know if he saw the athletic headline or the tweet that they say No? May I read it to you? Sure. He's napping. I think can we can talk about this. The Yankees have the Mets. The giants have the jets The Rangers have the islanders. The next haveave no rival for New York's heart. So this championship means so much more to the city Mm Yeah, I'm gonna try and make sure he doesn't see that head. That I was like, guys, come on with you guys. Yeah I can't say that. I know they've been around. I know they were New Jersey. I know that then they went then they're Brooklyn, but it's like they're still a team. It feel like the Kicks rival is more the Yankees than the Nets That's what people compare it to. L it feels like it's not even like Kicks fans versus net fans. Now it's become like Brunson versus Aaron Judge who is the number one athlete is more of the conversation. Yeah. So Brady just wants your boyfriend to feel even less thought of. they'd rather they'll find another sport to compare to before they even go You know what I told him The Gobetotters because I have for those that are just listening, I have Nick's Kitty behind me right now Yeah, she's sitting on the actual couch where Hello Kitty This is the infamous seat. This is the this is what got them the championship. No literally. No literally. So but what he did say because, you know, I now have my Hello Kitty Mz Bobble headad I'm like now Met's Kitty will go to work. Now. Nick's Kitty did her job. to you. greedy. Met's Kitty got clockking This feels this isn't the right time, but this does feel like the time to give you Dan's gift. So Dan today, when he thought that he was getting rid of me, he was staying to do more stuff here his friend Brendon Saglow, former guest of the podcast, who opens for himag Daddy? Itag Sag Daddy D Pod, you know And him and homeless pimp, It's crazy to talk about my fiancee's work because you have to say things like, and then homeless pimp is going to come by and they're going to go on a road trip. But anyway I was supposed to be gone. They went to they got tickets to a giants game. funny enough Dan actually bought tickets to the giants game the night of his special taping by accident at first. So those just went empty. and then he got some for today. They were at that game U And while he was there, he said, Hey, it's Hello Kitty dayay here And I was like, Ohh really? And he said, He said she gets anything for Isabella And I was like, No, I think she's got her Matz went but he got you went A little giant skitty. D No No, that's not your baseball team and he's not even trying to sway you. He said he got one for you, and then he's like, Well, and I had to get one for me too. So we both have That's really cute Giants. becauseuse he was like, is this is to help with the anti doodgers. You can't like the doodgers. This would be the thing. If you're going to go over there, it's you got to root for this t. isn't technically I mean, not that this should matter, but isn't technically like the Mets were created from dissillusion or is that the word? of the giants and the Dodgers? It was the void of the Giants and Dodgers leaving New York. Yeah, was when the Med So allgers. Wh'd you go know? I mean the giants part? Where didd you get? Where'd you get all that from? Oh O day I wanted to look at the origin of the New York. Oh we did it.. I just want She was just Googling her sports teams. Also Gator and a can canan't recommend it more. I know. Well, it's Dan' special. so people like brought gifts. We've got all his fs.ool treats and you guys When the special comes out It's so good I don't know when that is. It's so good. It'll be on Netflix. I'll tell you all about it Directed by another guest former guest of casuals Ohual. Yeah, so that's who I was with last night when the Kicks won was with Oh sick C back it up, the gatorade is in a cann still like my mind's broken about that. You've never had this? I've never No I't I didn't sponsors can. You're gonna have to blur it out and you're gonna to have to bleep it because they didn't pay for any of this U you know, advertising we'reiving. Congratulations. You broke into the market organically This is old. this is old stuff. This is not This isn't a new product. That is I'm so blown up. This is a West cooast thing. I don't know. but I just feel like I used to have them when I was younger. When I was younger, we had Jorade iced tea and I need that to come back into my life. Oh Oh, no. I don't know. work. C we play it. It really works. People called our voicemail line to talk to Isabella out. Can we Can we listen Hello and guyswolf, I just wanted to call and say hello. This is Annie from Chicago. I'm a bartender. Big Isabella fan and I have been following her journey through loving sports. And they should always be a champion, you know everything. I see all things through as well as, I reach for all things through is Ma. So I am so happy It's been a very special series and I have been uniquely thankful to watch out through the eyes of O girl. So m So happy for you, Isabella, Cheers, cheers, cheers. Yeah, cheers, Cheers, Annie Fuckking. Now, Anne we're gonna get a nice nice ears Cheers indeed that your voicemail was left After that game ended, you. Yeah, we' all kind of feel in that way. wereeren't we? We we all a little cheers, cheers, cheers. How does that make you feel, Isabella? I know. Well, thanks for thinking of me. I know that's awesome. Nixs in five. He fuck yeah, Nix in five they I actually did it. How about that Oj? What was the moment for you of the series? because for me, it's that OGi That OG tip at the Oh ye of that was it was so crazy. I watch so crazy. Like the highlights of that moment Probably like fifty times on my timeline. Like fan edits. Yeah. Every single time it came up, I was like, oh, I'm watching this. I mean over watch this Exact. It's still crazy because he puts he shoots it Brunnton shoots it and you're like And all of a sudden, it's like, Yes, s. Yeah. It's beautul. was screaming? No one guarded OGi off the inbound and he just had a clear path. And on the overhead shots like the high camera is so cool because it tracks OGi just coming off the side line. like I got this shit. It's crazy. Fies in Absolutely crazy. We haven't even talked about the Taylor Swift of it all. Now listen Now listen, Taylor Swift went to game four or Yes, game four. att the garden and she showed up in they had custom knick shirts, her and the women of is it? H Higham. Ham T. I know of them. I just don't think I've ever heard anyone say it out loud and was afraid of And I don't think I've ever said out loud either Right? I don't know. And we're trusting Brady. I don't know that that's the move, but I' got to live inwifty. it's the Hyam sisters. H Sisters. Okay, so they went and they had on their custom shirts. and Mariska Hargite also wore a custom shirt as well U and was on the now was not Was not Taylor Swift in attendance for a cabs game Yeah And she was court with her. Now she wasn't wearing calav stuff, but she was rooting actively for the calves, right? Travis was in cal's gear. She was in the colors, I believe. Does it? Yeahah, and that I would allow you can allow that. That's fine. It just was like she was rooting for them. So it was very confusing to me when I saw that and then I saw the backlash to the backlash because people were like, let people like what they like I'm like, Ddy that's the whole point of this podcast. So I'm not even it was this playoff run. It wasn't like two years ago. It was wee somebody sniffed and smelled and sold her chair about it. L we have the evidence that she was sitting courtsside rooting for another team. And so I kind of backed off, but then they came from Monica McNutt Okay And' not we're not having that. okay. I just need everyone to understand Monica McNutt is a saint who walks among us. She has done more for people's excitement in basketball, specifically in the Kicks than anyone I've ever met reccently, like she is fantastic at her job, incredibly passionate and knowledgeable The sweetest, kindest, she loves the Kicks. They love her and I was very happy to see that I actually don't have to give as impassion to of a speech because Jayelen Brunson Did you see Isabella what he said to her in their interview after the game Yeah, what about the Swifties? Yeah, do we have it? playlay the clip. I just want to say something to thewties She's a really good one. Cut us some slime It's all good. I promise She got caught. I guess on like a hot mic saying like she's not a she's not a Nick fan. I don't know. She's you'l get out of here. likeike Yeah she was just She wast double down on it. She doubled down on it. She said like she didn't double down on it. She stood by it. She went by, Hey, I look, you were I know all of the celebrities I've been here all years. I never been here. And that's and that's she's not saying she can't like be she's just saying like this is not, you know, and whatever. And so I think I was I loved that Jayalen did that that he's like, listen, she's a good one. And I actually did see A lot of swwifties go, okay are bad and I love that. So job everybody. Back off, chill out. It's she rules. Monica McNut rules, I can't recommend listening to her call the game more. It's the best. Yeah. She' Awesome. I don't know if you saw a clip of her where she was like realizing like the Kicks were about to win and she like silent and crying. and I was like, Oh that's so sweet. I love that. I love that. It was so nice seeing everybody's U Joy. There was a lot, a lot of joy. Do you see Timothy Chalamay in the locker room You should put the goggles on too. I know He was like I need to he was like usually I'd have my stunt double do this. This is a lot. I am not an athlete. and he is that easiest target to dump booze on know foot shorter than that And can I say about that? It sound looks like fun. Sray what you want, but in my head, I'm also like, I wantan to drink a good amount of Yeah This is this out. This is so true. It's they do drink But they also do spray a lot of it. Yeah, the goggles. once the goggles became like stylish and basically said we're champions. it's like now they go nuts because they got Yeah Was that poppy I feel like it was poppy, wasn't it? I don't know popularized the goggles. It could have been like the thing that really pushed it over the edge. I don't know enough to know that it was like specifically him, but I know that you know That's certainly in my memory, one of the first Um What else? I mean, we're all over the place, but what did you see any of the what were some of the celebrations and stuff that stood out for you? Be there was so much, there was so much going on in the street. I know. A lot of it was also, I wish I could play some of it, but a lot of it's visual. My favorite visual one is the one of, I don't know if you guys have seen this guy. He's like been balancing like a TV on his head all of sud in the crowds and earlier in the day he was balancing one of like the New York City trash cans on his head. and every tot everyone was like, try riding the bike and he was able to do it. This like a say bike It' insane. What? That so New York like sh Yeah But after they won, everyone was choosing and this guy was just like dancing with the TV, TV like a flat screen on his fucking head and then there's another clip like straight up like you could it or laying No not horizontal lay down straight up like this. And then there was another clip I saw of him on top of a bus with the TV on his end. Yeah man, That's wild. Yeah, so that was probably my favorite. But another one was like that guy who did the The guy who did the Myayor Muslim came out with a new chant, which I believe we have sound for. Oh, let's listen. My still Jewish. The bum's on our side. N The what's on our side? The Pope Pope, the pope. Pope's the Nova guy. Dude, the Nova Kicks. are't I thought I saw there the first They're the first trio to do to win both. Y together Yeah. And of course they are. It would be something we would talk about all the time because that's absolutely crazy. They won in twenty sixteen, Brunson Harton Bidges won the NCAA Championship, they won March Madness, Isabella and and now twenty twenty six they win the finals. That's awesome. I also saw the Kicks had the number one, number four and number six biggest comeback wins in NBA finals history. It's like, what a run. What a crazy run that has so many people that theoretically wouldn't like the Kicks feeling so conflicted We're just going like, yeah, I guess I'm I guess I'm rooting for them. This is' cool to see. It's just a good team that's got a lot of good personalities. There are people there good storylines about doubting. I't Everybody's going a chill on wanting Becky to come out and Answer for her bad take. There have been millions of bad take throughout time. We never. Make anybody answer for any of it, but every tweet I'm seeing is like, Where's Becky Han also there's a lot of other There's a lot of other like mail reporters who basically said the same thing And so a lot of people are like, kind of focusing on her specific And I wonder why that would be And Becky Hammond had said Becky Hammond, had said that a team with you'll never win in the NBA. You'll never win a championship with a small guy is your best player. like basically saying that Brunson can't lead them to a championship. And then they scored forty five points and was the finals forty five. Now I have to tell you the craziest thing, which is that I didn't get to watch the game five Yeah, because Dan is was recording his special. What that is is they is he does two shows And and you and, you know, he does an hour of comedy. And so in between, we got to see the very end. I went into the night and I saw Colin Quinn. And I said, Hey, I'm rooting for the Kicks, get it done in six for you. so that directing Dan special, which is an honor that everyone's so happy that you're doing, doesn't keep you from seeing the Kicks Whenin the championship, I would feel really bad if that were the and he right away goes, I don't care He's like, whatever. I like the Nicks before everybody else. I don't care. Yeah ye. Now everybody likes the Kicks. wasntn he was like, I didn't see Spike Lee there when I was watching the Nicks. I didn't see Spikey fifty three years ago. And meanwhile, Brendan Sagalo, who when he was on our podcast was like, why does anybody like sports? hadad his phone out with the Nicks on cheheckking the score. And I was like, what is this D? We make him a sports fan? I guess. Well now he's, I mean, now that I'm here and I'm here for the day. I'm like, well, we're going to watch World Cup. We're going to be watching hockey We'll even tune into whatever that UFC is that again, because of the weird way we're recording this is happening right now. So we got eyeballs on it. and if anything happens, we'll tell you about it. But mostly We're here to talk about the next. Isabelle, you gonna go to the parade? I'm trying to now, now O issue. This is a big issue. This is a big issue So I remember I told you, I'm actually I took off Thursday because my little nephew's kindergarten graduation is that morning. Yeah. So I have that in the morning. but I'm thinking, what I'm going to do regardless, even if I miss it It's going to be in the morning and I'm going to immediately after go into the city and hope to catch the tail end of. I mean, people will still be in the street. It's not like they Well that's over. I guess I'll go inside. It's like exactly be Hmm. All right, yeah, that's very sweet of you. It's very sweet of you to not want to becausecause it's twin nephews, right? So it's like you'd be disappointing two family members, so you have to go to that, but don't wouldn't they rather go to the Al also it's not graduation. It's kindergarten graduation, which isn't nothing. But isn't. Powerpoint, It's kind of nothing It is kind of nothing, isn't it. And it's not like a it's not like Don't dance with me because I just f my sister right now. They're just gonna walk across the stage and they're not gonna remember if you were there I'm a bad influence because I really should be You're going to remember and you're going to remind them for many years, Hey, remember the Nicks Championship parade? You want to know why I wasn't there? Yeah. I was at your kindergarten graduation. Yeah. Are your brothers and kids? Are Are your brothers going to the parade? A they going to the graduation? No, they're not going To wit No Which one? Okay, well, one of them actually just can't because they're not gonna be around, but then the other one is going to the parade Okay, I feel like you could go to the parade. I'm really regretting a full YouTube video of this bun on top of my head. and I reserve the right to take this down as soon as we've satisfied our advertising requirements. This is not my favorite moment, but anything for Anything for Isabelle. You gott to go to the parade. You got tom Test the waters. just go like, why would we feel? If I wasn't at the graduation. But let's just let's role play a world in which that happens. then Let See, just see what they say. Okay. If I need to get you credentialed, I think it has to be done by like noon tomorrow. so Damn credentialed, well then you can't drink, girl, so that's different. so I would really think lade off that. it's not the same. It's not Yeah, like I'll try to shoot what I can, but I want to be drunk while doing it. And I think I kind of want you to be drunk while doing. I think so too. Did you see Adam Sheine and Theo on Instagram? No He lets Theo stay up Yeah, he let stay up. And they watched it together and they freaked out. it was awesome. Did you see'm updating us on all former casuals guests what they did for the Ks. Did you see JP was in the streets with Stavros. I think he was with Sam Maril. I think Jud Appatau question markark, I think was out there with them Is JP healthy enough to be in the streets? I don't know. And same with Stavy. It's like are you are you going to PT Um The John Marco, John Marco tweeted, than you for letting me suddenly become a die hard basketball fan. I promise to show the same grace if you ever do the same for musical theater I thought was very sweet of him. case anybody ever wants to start loving musical theater, he won't judge you the way you didn't judge him for suddenly loving basketball. It's the nextick dude. they got everybody super into basketball friendhip. It's popping. you see Jay Lo watched it on her couch dressed in business casual? Did she I did not see? She was like, Yes. Yes, Kicker valers, she wrote. It' like okay Jenny Jenny from the block. who argued What see The most heartwarming audio that I think came out of it was just the whole citycape, just people filming out their windows. Yeah, I heard a s. It's just a whole ass city and streets crazy J have so many people together about that about the whole. Yeah. And again, that's where I live and I can't get back. I'm stuck far away from it. But you know we'll be back soon. I hope. what happens if tomorrow I can't get on a flight And I think you just you're just a Californian now. I live here now, man. sorry. It's just I got chill vibes. I got chill vibes and energy Supermo hooked you. You know who lives in California now and has chill vibes and energy that I saw this weekend at the taping of again, Dan's upcoming Netflix special Sick, Coach. Yeah saw the clipse of him during Dance Pod. Yeah I second I still haven't seen it yet. But every time it gets referenced, I go, yeah totally toally. The two of you do an impossible amount of content for I know do. I know. He's like upstairs going, canan you finish doing your content so we can watch the sports U Sh we take a break Yeah Can I ask before we get to a break, the big like debate point, so I watched this with a lot of non New York Die Hard, so we did talk about the other angle. Do you guys have a horr or just different or worse opinion of Viictor Webinyama after the series? I didn't watch enough of the final game to say definitively the plan was to watch tonight so I' I can't really say. I think he was put in a tough spot. I think he's young and I think turnurning on him is kind of wild. He's still going to be a freak for a very long time. Um And so I don't think so for me, but Isabella, Yeah, I don't know. I don't really have any strong opinion. I will say I the only thing I was kind of like I didn't love like seeing him kind of just like directly walk off the court at the end of the game. Is that what it was? No was Kanzer after the last do that. do they? they all all like line up. They should. I mean, Brunceson in the first Hs that Brunson shook he went over and shook the sppurs coach's hands. I mean, yeah, he's he just won. so you're in a better head space. L different Yeah. Little different Yeah just walking off is kind of a bad look. There was another play in the third quarter where Brunson took a jump shot and Webinyama got got away with sticking his foot under Brunson landing again, it's kind of been a problem which he also has gigantic feet. so it's a little harder Well and he also under people. He also at least in the earlier rounds of the playoffs, I remember was absorbing a lot of things that were not being called on him. And so it was sort of like a little bit of So I'm not willing to say, but that's why I'm curious. It's not a definitive. Like it is definitely up in the air. Some people soured on him, some people are like, look, he was doing the best he could. He had an ice cold star in Darren Fox. He was getting his assat up and down the court. Yeah, Fox is that people aren't saying very nice things about him now are they I mean, he's in the Chet Homgen territory. He's got a contract extension starts next year. You know, I will say and I know I won in this game people were really hard on him at the end of the Der and Fox. Yeah for what was the one that Game four he got steel and instead of running out the clock And I get it He was that last Yeah, I get it. It's the last definitive like he really could have saved the game and so it' the person to blame, but also kind of like the whole team Yeah and that's the And you know what that's the right That is the right answer, but it is tough to tell to a bunch of people who are I want to know did your opinion of Chalamet change when he came out with the cow she had in the midst of all this? Oh, I didn't see that. Oh yeah. It was and the only text in his social post was just the words Kalci and You know? Yeah, man, you know, like I think he's a legit Nicks fan. It's just a bad look. It's a bad look. I think like like He loves ball. He lives and dies with the team. He traveled to San Antonio along with, I think like every Nicks fan in New York because that place had so many Nicks fans in it for game five. But it's a bad luck. I don't know. It doesn't make me think Well was it exactly because I didn't see it. It's just him, it's just an ad for Kalhi and he's at a dentist and he's trying to say the word Kalshi in it, but he's not. And the dentist is not understanding what he's saying. I don't know. I it's like a little teaser, but it's just the partnership to go like E Everybody right now is associating you with this team And during the like peak of the run, you drop an ad with Kalsey,'s like, okay, you have so much money. You need to make more money off of people putting money on the game And you know who else just did it messy? During the world maybe his final World Cup, I saw today I got a push notification. says Leono Messi partners with Kalsci. I'm like, what During the during your last World Cup P You know? Petu. But whatever, dude, secure the bag. Totally. Get that chat. Totally. That's a good transition, I feel like to talking about the World Cup. So why don't we take a break And when we come back, I'll probably randomly remember something else I wanted to say to Isabella. so stay tuned for that to just happen throughout the podcast in regards to the Kicks. But we'll also talk about the World Cup and then maybe a little bit of that UFC. I don't know, We'll get into it. I'm sitting on the floor at an Airbnb. It's casuals. We'll be right back. Okay, welcome back. It's It's casuals. I still didn't get to I'm not at home still. so I'm still sitting on the floor and didn't figure it out in a commercial break, but we're going to get it figured out soon. The World Cup, you guys, were in full swing. It has happened. It is happening currently. Too many days, I think, between games for us United States played on Friday and then we won't play again, right until until Friday It's what the hell's that about? Gimm me, that's a week That's like football other football. Sure, but not but they're not the same. No. But they're not the same. U the United States Is very good Nts So we looked awesome. I know. the United States went four to one. at Sofi Stadium in L.A. in their first game, they played against Paraguay and Faler and Balligan scored two goals Forour one. They won. That is the first time since nineteen thirty that the U.S. won a World Cup game by three goals that is crazy. U everyverybody after the game that know more about soccer was like Yeah, that wasn't just the other team being bad. That was we looked really good. People were like fired up about this. and so that's Making me feel kind of nuts. I don't know actually what to do with that because I didn't prepare for that. I'm happy. I'm excited, but now I'm like I don't even know how to temper how I feel. I don't want to get ahead of myself so that I can be disappointed. Itelt pretty sick. It's like it all came together. Kind of start best case scenario. And even like Chris Richards, who was the big he's the big defender. He had the hurt ankle and it was kind of up in the air. He didn't play the two warmup games. We weren't sure how he was going to look, locked it down and he was eighty three for eighty three completed passes That's insane. That's insane. What? You're just starting the offense in the back Unbelievable performance by that. did. E Go Rnaidn't Gio Rna score a goal and use that to announce that that his partner is pregnant, I believe? Oh. I missute I don't know, or maybe I was misinformed. It's a lot. Again, I'm busy and I've been scrolling, trying to follow on the ph. a lot of contentere now. Right and can I Is this a safe space? He did reveal that his wife was pregnant. Yeah, immediately after the game. During the goal celebration. He scored a goal and was like, hey, by the way I had sex.act by the time by the time that go went in, we had been at the bar for five hours at that. So Brady was tuned up A little bit. Nicolo Vltra was very strong the very strong on the promotion Maryland Bar. Hell yeah. I saw a lot of cool I'm trying to imagine super drunk, Brady Brady just gets up on the bars, says hell yeah Oh, I was waving that flag. I brought a flag with me. That damn. Brady's definitely. how many pieces of American flag clothing do you think Brady owns? I'm going the over under is two and a half and I think I'm gonna take over Okay, the over under seven and a half and I might still take the over I'm gonna guess seven or eight, ye. That's probably a really good second gu. Yeah. Damn. I was gonna say like maybe three. Yeah, that's why I thought I had a good ine there, but I guessle themed wrestling singlet maybe off course you do. Of course you do. Of course you do Wait, so what were you saying is is safe spacefe space. Okay, so and I'm one of the first people that said, I've loved seeing the content across social media of people that came in, international soccer fans that are here in the United States and are experiencing all the little charms of the US across this great nation that I do love very much U I don't and I don't want to be the lady that goes, is this just Is this real And I think we probably won't get to the bottom of it today. so maybe it might be best to just not even mention. But a friend of mine was maybe trying to get a hold of this German guy that's traveling across that what's his name again Fred? Fredd. Freddyredd. He's been like the main the main account that everybody's been talking about that he's, I think he went to a Bucky', he went to a Taco Bell. He's been to all these different places and he's Wonderful and beautiful. And I and she just kind of encountered a snag in the trying of to contact him that might have given catfish. Now again, I'm not confidently saying anything. I just don't know if anybody else because as soon as I mentioned it, Brady said our in our group chat, he goes is moving at an an interesting pace across these United States. It's like game of Thronees speed travel. Like he's just going spot to spot with no travel in between. Also there are like his photos are they don't Oh, he's in different states. I didn't He's moving he's all over the place. Cm in San Diego across I don't think she knows what that is. I do. Oh All right, okay. nice. I doud There's no photos of himself, which not everybody's want to take selfies and put them on the internet. I really. They're all like kind of generic. and the one that tipped me off is when he went to a bass pro shop and was like, they sell rifles here and it's just like a picture of the rifle counter and some generic bass pro shops. I like if do character. That is pretty weird that we do that. I do It was weird, but it's like I's creating this character and trying to like spoof American culture, maybe I would go Yeah yeah ye. But yeah there is a counterpoint to this. You got to Houston for the games in Houston JJ Watt put him. Okay, this I saw this. I saw that. interesting. He's a. W you trust JJ Watt? Well, JJ Watt tweeted it. JJ Watt confirmed, like good to see you, Freddy. And now if JJ Watt is working with Calcii and Freddy is a Kacii playant could I one gigant I'm never coming back. If this is all a Kalsci thing, I'm never I live here now. I live in these mountains. I lear out of forid and berries. I don't come to this any The next one and I decided I don't come back. Myrtle, send Myrtle, please grab her Sbody pick her up from camp and bring her But it's not just Fredd. Let's just buy it then because there's also this guy, a Japanese guy who writes very poetically about, I don't know if you saw them write that big poem about the rotisserie chickens that he sa And that's probably AI. I just was I loved it though. It was like, why are this why is the chicken so cheap when it's cooked already or you can buy it raw. for more expensive It was much better written than what I'm doing, but I also' to give it too much credit because what if it's just The art that he tweets with it is AI So I don't know. So much of it is definitely genuine. I mean, we've seen so many people having these moments. We saw the guy in we saw the guy from London who was at the New Jersey deli and just harveling at some at the you know, your typical Jersey deli guy putting together a chicken paralm sandwich behind the counter. it brought him in, he's like showing them all the layers U you have what' her name Elsa, the Swedish fan who is just she's finding everything that she could possibly dip into ranch ranch Rch sauce. She found bacon wrap tater tots. was like How do these exist in England? I haven't discovered that either. Where those? Somebody seent me the link. The whole tater toot wrapped in bacon and then just fried to a crisp. And how come I haven't even thought of that yet? Why is my brain not thinking of stuff like that first She was dead in Ranch. Did you see the Scottish The Scottish fans are in Boston too They are. There was a guy that was like, dude, these Scottish guys moved in next door and they got bag pipes' playing them at seven in the morning. They're just out in the street playing the bagpipes They went to the I saw a bunch of Scottish fans went to the Red Sox game today and were like singing in the crowd. It's so cool. It's so cool watching all these cultures like clash into the like other sports that we have going on because they're sports fans. like while we're here. We want to check out some of the other sports and it's really Really doing it for me. My algorithm is chalockfulull The Algerian team is like camped at a like a small college town in Kansas. I don't remember what the you know, just like a like a small wherever they have from the. I think they' in Lawrence arerenn't they? Are they? I don't know, maybe not. Keep going whatever. Maybe maybe. But like I was seeing like Kansas sports bars, like their house band learning like these traditional Algerian songs and like all these kids doing the news report being like, yeah, we're root for Algeria now. Like we've just g out and learned so much about their country. These guys are awesome that they've come in here. like we're teeam Algeria now. Kansas The University of Kansas band learned the Algerian anthem Yeah sick. It's sick. The um Then in Mexico for the opener in Mexico, the opening games, you just had shot after shot of like Korean fans at like Mexican restaurants and bars. like Doing Gongnom style? Yes. Mexican played Gam style bun of Korean fans and Mexican fans together like crushing a bottle of tequila at the security checkpoint. Like we're all just one big happy family. This is the best celebration of America two hundred fifty even th was in Mexico. But this is the best celebration of the American spirit that we could ask for. Not the UFC fight happening on the White House lawn, Bra. I don't think that's the best I don't think Travis Pristrana ripping motorcycle backflipsross across the lawn in front of the White House is exactly what the founding fathers had in mind. I just don't think the wayigh in at the Lincoln meemorials like somebody coververs eyes Somebody covers his eyes like Levi' had to cover their name on the stadium The Levi logo did see that they can't I can't name any of these. It is what they're called insane. It's insane. Abbe Lincoln literally a pro wrestler would have a problem Yes. Yes he would. U but cool, very cool. I saw Japanese fans eating at Are they playing in Texas? because I could have swn it was they were talking about food in Texas and how they had to get steak once they were there and they were Oh they played today and I can't remember where they were They found Texas. I was at the airport. so I didn't get to see it. Heard it was a great game. D didnid't get to see it They were talking about how Texas Roadhouse is the most like cost effective steak, which is technically an endorsement, but you're like You're getting the best the best taste per squared, you know Scent. greatreat, very efficient way to discuss the meat. I really appreciate that The discovery of chicken fried steak has been a revelation to many. I've never had chicken fried steak. That's exactly how you think it does. Yeah, it's fri It's steak that's been fried like chicken I don't it's yeah. It's the best of both worlds. It's good. Oh, is that what it is? I always was it's just fried steak in my head. I would always be like, so what do they like Let's go to the se Steak inside the chicken introduce the cow to the chicken and theys Like a bacon wrapped potato.. Yeah. it's like Innovators in the space. What's this Italian fan doing here? He's not invited No they? They didn't make it. So what is the Italian fan discovering free refills at American restaurants? I don't know what on vacation, buddy. He's allowed to go root for other squads. You can't be here for a cups They were marveling J just a guas of the fact that we can get we can get our sodas refilled. Yeah. you know what I'm a guas know what I'm a guas What what has really brought us together outside of the wonderful absurdities in smaller parts of American culture that don't get a lot of shine is how much we all fucking do not like Alexei Lawlace. It has brought us together as a nation. I have seen people discussing learning Spanish because they would rather watch on Telemundo for not just Alexi Lawl. I won't put it entirely on him. But just as a commentator, really You know, just really bringing us all together. He called while trying to promote James Corden, who's doing a late night show during this World Cup in a promotional read for James Gordon He I mean, do we play the sound? I don't think we can play the sound. Let's take a listen to the exchange. And by the before we play it, let me just say shout out to Rebecca Low, an absolute sweet angel who I have been watching interact with this guy on TV over the last couple of days. And I just want to send her hugs and kisses. Let's take a listen A second? Oh I know what you guys call him Folket wank or whatever's wearing that? He's all dressed up and ready to go. You just Okay. Lucky we on American television. the W on British TV. You might to go visit James right? you got to go visitam Crazy. Just crazy. Teron R gave us a great meme. the first great meme of this World Cup He just stared directly into the camera and his eyebrows up and was like,ait, and then who's this Lala's guy? Alexi So Alexei was a defender on the nineteen ninety four team, the last time the United States host of the World Cup. And he's been just kicking around doing media ever since he's a commentator, he's broadcast He's been at Fox for so long and they despite any sort of feedback, they don't seem to care. So it's listen, he does what he does and he seems to be doing it successfully. So who am I to say But it's just like it's just u Why would you be calling him that anyway in a promotion? And what's the word he says before he says? here I thought it sounded like he Y so did I. But nobody really reacted to that. And it sounded like he was phonetically pronouncing fucking with a British accent. And I was like, what is who told him to say this Also funny though is the way they react to the W word as they call it is like how we react the way they say the C word because over there, they can just say They just say that quite a bit Yeah, don't they I'll be honest, I didn't know it was this taboo I also wouldn't just thought it was like calling somebody a ye say. I also would not go, let's go to our late night host, a real jerk off. I wouldn't promotional language I would use when trying Coming up next after fan service We got her just not just. We got this cnt, Katie all. She won a championship. it's allowed. She won a championship We have to allow it. She's different. She's acting differently out here. She's just different now, it's just something that we have to do. I'm so sorry, guys. No, it's beautiful It's absolutely beautiful U There's other certainly other World Cup stuff that we have to get to. What is it? What has happened? What else Oh, can we talk about the water breraaks? Oh yeah. C we talk about the hydration breraaks. So Isabella This is the thing that they're doing now. mandated hydration breaks because it's hot. Yeah you know, And I will say we we were seeing English fans who have always said that like you guys don't understand heat The United States heats nothing. and then they get here and they're going like You can't breathe. The human's really scary. Really taking them out And so the hydration brakses are good and important and all, but basically we've used them as a way to Sneak in a commercial break. Usually when you watch soccer, it's two uninterupted halves of soccer. You watch the entire play run and then when it goes to halftime, they go to a commercial and then a halftime show that's at the desk and then maybe a commercial and then, you know. This now, they go to these hydration brakes and of course They sold them. So these guys are are being required. Its but they've basically split the game up into quarters instead of halves of soccer We've got a quarter of soccer and a hydration break. Let's get a couple ads in And then when they come back, it's and so they've been coming back late A At least one of the games, they were in commercial when the game started back up again And it's just people are like, can we fucking not be doing this already, just Ruining the tradition of soccer, which is that it's split into these halves and this is how we watch it and consume it When they said hydration breaks at first, you know Yes, because By the time this tournament ends, it'll be one hundred degrees on the east cooast of the US But everybody was like, well, they better not turn this into just an ad break. And they're like, no, no, hydration. hydration breaks. How long does it take to get hydrated? These breraaks are three minutes long. I can do it right now watchs. Time me That whole can just write down the hatch and take pretty crazy And they are going three minutes and really it's the it's the same length as like a quarter break in the NFL. Yeah, it sucks. It sucks and is stupid. We see right through it and they're not going to stop doing it. So It is what it is. I saw I know they ended up losing to who did Kirisao play? Germany? Germany. I think they ended up losing like seven one Yeah. But I think early in that game they scored their very first. World Cup goal ever And right after it, when you would think if momentum in so farar is that's a real thing you'd need to keep going. They had to take a hydration break and stop the game down so that they could. And then of course, they ended up losing by quite a bit. So I don't know, it just like sucks.ople A lot of people are watching. It's between that And Alexi Lwis that has a lot of people watching Telmundo because Telmundo is not going to commercials. They're like, we believe that you're supposed to watch the game this way. You're supposed to see them the whole time until the half when they go back to the Locker room, so shout out to Everybody learning Spanish so that they can enjoy the broadcast of the World Cup. Not gonna lie. Like most of soccer play by play to me is just like In case I'm looking away, just raise your voice and speak with a lot of energy so that I look up And if there's a goal, just scream like a maniac so that if in case I went to my kitchen, I will know Spanish gets a job done. Yeah No, I don't really I don't know how much I need to hear it other than just make sure I'm looking at the appropriate times. Damn. He said he doesn't even need to see it Be I don't even need a Honest,am. I don't even I need to see it. I don't need to hear it in English. I think my energy works in Spanish Even better, some could say Even better. U Yeah, what else? Anything else? Did you see this headline Peruvian police don World Cup mascot suits as disguises in a drug raid I sent that immediately to my cop bud. Is it the craziest thing you've ever I was like, what in the hell is this? Story U and I bookmarked it. I't read it. It was exactly It was exactly what the headlines said. They dressed up as, you know, for like an event as the World Cup mascots, popped off the head sccooby doo style. I was like surprise I'm a cop Fantastic. It felt like they just wanted to do it. L it didn't seem necessary. Speaking of a surprise cop, I saw a TikTok the other day of these women having a bachelorette party and a cop walked in and they were all like I thinking he was a stripper but it was actually a real cb What was he there for? He was like, o, we just gotta complain about like a black Toyota parked out front. have that moved. Okay, can you say it a little slower and sexier to me It's my bachelorette Crazy So there's your cop stories guys. Nice. Isabellea's on the be Um Okay. What's going on the Stanley Cup The hurricanes win officially? L I checked, they were up two nothing in the third period. Three nothing. Three nothing. Three nothing. And nothing, game is over. It's gone. The Carolina hurricanes One are your Stanley Cup champions? No. You're Vegas, your Vegas Golden Knights. Well, you know what happened? For the first time, Carter Hart did not allow four goals. Oh, good for him. G for the cycle I love that for him. G for him. Oh, good for him. Uh no, good for good for Bussy. It's a Bussy shut. Y favorite your new favorite call. He was in net again tonight. Andrew. Okay just tighten up on them So inappropriate. So inapproropriate. You wantanna record a podcast at eleven o'cock I know. I have to go to bed. We have to wrap this up so you guys can go to bed and I can eat dinner. I don't know how time zones work, but I'm lost in them. I am adrift at sea I'm seeing this is sort of crossing our wires as we're recording this. but sort of the thing everyone's talking about with this UFC White House fight on the lawn that did go on, even though there was a lot of weather concerns And I saw they had Chris Weidman basically having to do the weather during the pregame show. I was like, what is this that I'm watching? I don't I think I need to be watching this. The big story that I saw is that like Daniel Cormy, I said that Eric Trump DMMed him trying to get inside information on the fight or the fighters, he took screen grabs of these alleged DMs from Eric Trump. and said, I'm probably going to get a lot of flack for bringing this to light. However, I refused to stay silent The UFC is a sport I'm deeply passionate about. I will not tolerate this type of insider behavior. Shame on anyone trying to ruin this beautiful event. And the messages that are coming from, according to these screenshots, Eric Trump's verified account at Eric Trump He says, Hey, Daniel, I'm going be attending UFC two hundred fifty tomorrow. saaw you were casting. ust is that podcasting? Is he shortening or is that broadcasting Oh M maybe he's leaving Was he fishing? or was he f? This is also entirely possible. He was doing some wizardry, likeike some light wizard? Yes. I saw you practicing Okay, so then he says, Yo Eric, didn't expect a DM from you. Excited to meet you in the family Much loveve brother. And he said, anything you can tell me, he didn't even say like, hey, thanks. Anyway, let me cut to the chase here. Anything you can tell me about the fighters tomorrow Who you got winning How do you do fellow kids? And then he goes, there was another answer but I can't see it because the way is just cropped. It doesn't matter. He goes, you place in any bets He said, Now, I'm actually not allowed to bet on any cards or anything allegedly Eric Trump said, Are any of the fighters injured that you know of? It's like he's clearly trying to hint at something. and Daniel Cormier says, I'm not quite sure why you're asking me this, but I think they're all in good shape. And then he finally goes at one seventeen AM. This exchange started at I think eleven twenty eight PM fininally goes, I'll just cut to the chase. Are any of the fights tomorrow rigged I've been eying the Lopez fight and I think an upset wouldn't be too unrealistic, dollar sign, dollar sign No they go he tweeted those. then he deleted those and now I believe last I heard Eric Trump was saying we are we've been made aware of the AI generated photos of the Wh would then mean since the tweet itself came from Daniel Cormer, you'd be saying he was pretending you DMmed him And that I would need proof of. because it's pretty ill conceived for your excuse to be that he made it up because it's coming from your account. So if it were AI generated, it would have been AI generated by somebody. It's not like somebody could have given Daniel Cormier an AI generated screenshot of allegedly His DMs The idea is that he took the screenshot from his own DM So how would somebody AI generate? your account that doesn't make sense now does it? I'm looking at another quote tweet from Eric Trump. and tell me if this sounds like what you say when you're absolutely telling the truth. The quote tweets. This is completely fake, exclamation Point. I have never reached out to Daniel. In fact, this is scary Actually, I'm gonna sue about this. actuallyctually. I gotta Wait this out. This is really scary. He than for bringing this to my attention. If they can just make it look like I definitely asked you this like that I'm gonna to cut to the chase after six messages of him dancing around what he wants to ask is more almost more embarrassing than the fact that you're out here trying to get inside Iel O a you're asking if the White House UFC thing is rigged I just I mean, there's a world where it's fake. There's a world where someone just hacked. There's a world where it's all fake. There's a world isn't that great? And you know what there is that you can't fake Isabella's happiness That's right. That's pure. okay? You can't That's not AI generated, nor is it brought to you by h, okay? It's Isabella, happy and pure M Her team won because she loved them good enough. Yep. She loved them so hard. They went out and won her a championship And then to the streets and they took apart a bus. I don't know why they were doing that, but they took apart a bus. And the man on the bus said, please. Please stop doing that to the bus. Did you see the one bus driver that stopped and was dancing? Yes? It was my favorite. That was my absolute favorite of the videos. I loved it. I saw another one of a bus and like there's just one woman on it and someone was like, Girl, you're not getting home 'use it was funny stuck. The Parkour skills of the average New York are incredible to. The ability to get up on a bus quickly or hang from a traffic light, or whatever you guys scale scaffolding, like I am amazed. Everyone is Spiderm Man as soon as you win a championship. It's also funny, it's something about the human psyche of like why do we tear everything apart when we're happy? Wh are we celebrating you know, the first action that called it into question for me probably was maybe not first, but really drove it home was when that Philadelphia fan ate poop after that I was like, what are we doing? You're not really in the head space to be constructed. Celebratory horsehit. I can't You want him to like build a library and try? No, I just want him to like Yell something crazy, not like, I will do this. I'm gonna do this. everybody. Gys, I ate Natella today as a treat. Do that instead. Yeah. I can't think of the two now. Now I'll forever associate Nata just like scooping up hse poop. Those way too cls.nto my mouth. Animal in my soup, That's how I was singing it. S up horseboot in my mouth. Brady, now that we've devolved, we haven't mentioned the College World Series at all. I wanted to let Isabella know about something I learned about on the radio on whatever day. What day is it even today? someomebody called in and said, did you know for the College World Series, there's a bar around there willll keep track of how many jello shots each fan base orders. And I think Brady, you're nodding. So historically, is it that the one who tends to win also wins the colloege World series? I think last time because I think I remember LSU had just the massive high score the last time they made And it was an insane amount. It was like tens of thousands or Yes thousandousands of jello shots Isabela. C you imagine having to make those? That's your sidew for the night That's a lot. so many U, But the Coege Rll series is happening I've been trying to tune to see it. Every game I've tuned in has accidentally been the one that's like a blowout. And I'm like, well, this isn't as there's other stuff to watch. And also, if I haven't mentioned yet, Dan recorded his special this weekend. So I'm on the road. You know, I'm busy. I'm a mover, I'm a shaker. I'm shaking hands, I'm kissing babies. you know, I'm wife of the president this weekend. So But you one thing I did notice and that I always notice with college baseball or the names. These boys are named Exactly how you think a college baseball star would be named. so I thought a good way for us to touch on some of the college world series stuff would be if we hand it off to Brady, our baseball expert here on the show, and you could break down for us maybe your top, I don't know, insert number M college baseball names in this year's college Wor sereries. First of all, I'm going to disqualify everyone named Bryson because there's so many everyveryone cururrently named Bryson. And where did that come from? Who was the Jaillin Rose of the Jailin of baseball who was it couldn't have been Dishhambo. Dishhambo doesn't get credit for that Who is the Bryson that got everybody doing this because they're all named that Alpha Bryson? Yeah. I don't know. I'm going to start you off though with college baseball names with the designated hitter from Troy, The Troy Trojans making their first appearance in the men's Coege worldorld sereries. Big star for them, six home runs in the tournament. Jabe Boroff. I'm sorry. All right. If Jab Boroff makes the majors, he will be the first Jabe in the historyajor League baseball. may I take a swing at this J A B E? Absolutely. Jabe? Jabe Boroff, Y. Je Boroff had the go ahead double that knocked out O miss on Sunday. Damn, old miss. No luck this postseason in softball or baseball, huh It's because of Lan Kiffin. Yeah, that's right. or whatever. Yeah.. Yeah. J Buth, they're calling him. Oh, that's fine. Okay. I'm back in.

They'll be facing off against Georgia catcher Daniel Jackson and pitcher Joe Voltcoo Not fun names, but I just want to notice these guys have been incredible.

That's like his home course. Yeah. a female employee said accused him of appropriate sexual contact, I believe, was the word that I saw U And then he was removed mid round from the course. So They came out and got him on the course. And they said, B bye to you. And then I know he put out or his lawyer put out like a this is there is no merit to this. I'm like, reallyally? because you were like a famous golfer And I think it would takeake a lot for them to yank you off the course mid round. So I guess we'll see how that develops. We're not gonna talk about it. Was yours going to be a good shout out? Did you have a positive golf thing?
