What it do Rod, Karen and Jaaron Rodgers,
I hope all is well.
Jordan Hudson endured having Belichik’s decrepit feet hold her in the air in a yoga pose and Bill’s having her tagged on all his UNC emails? Salute to someone out here securing the bag.
Speaking of getting to that money, Ja’Marr Chase *and* Tee Higgins both got paid by the Bengals! Probably the first time in history multiple Bengals players got paid in the same offseason while staying with the Bengals! I can’t wait to see what problems arise from everybody Cincy is about to not pay to make up for this. Cincy will at least be fun for folks to watch. I couldn’t imagine rooting for a team considering backing up the truck for a washed, sorry QB. Aaron Rodgers, a man who’d rather smoke crack than go to off season workouts, wants Sam Darnold’s contract from the Vikings and my goodness being white must be a hell of drug.
I hope y’all have a wonderful weekend and thanks as always for the dope shows!
Peace,
Dough
As a Mavs season ticket holder I can tell y’all, I have been harassing that front office on the regular. They actually sat on that price increase until like 3 days before the renewal window opened. Downtown Dallas restaurant owners are actually losing business while Lakers fans now outnumber Mavs fans for watch parties. I wanted to say fuck off for next season but the hubby is a hard core fan, even though it’s a lot of Lakers games on my tv these days. It’s so bad I had a dream Kidd had to suit up cause the rest of them niggas is all hurt. This sucks so bad. Don’t we almost have it all?!?!
Still playing catch-up, and I wanted to get this comment in before I listen to the episode, or else I’m going to forget to comment for, like, the fifth week in a row: on episode 545, y’all were talking about Liz Cambage, and made a comment to the effect of her retiring from basketball. I wanted to issue a slight correction, she’s not playing in the WNBA anymore, but she’s not retired from basketball: she’s currently playing in China in the WCBA, she’s the highest-paid player in the league, and she’s the leading scorer on the team with the best record. She’s averaging right around 19/11 through the first two rounds of the playoffs… Incidentally, that same team just signed reigning WNBA Finals MVP Jonquel Jones in time for the stretch run of the playoffs, so barring something really weird happening, they’ve probably got the championship in the bag.
Jumping ahead to episode 550, when y’all were talking about the investigation into bullying they did in Seattle, y’all indicated that you were more inclined to believe that Seattle was clean because they didn’t find anything, compared to the results of the investigation into Las Vegas. I wanted to ask y’all, does that mean you think that Jewell Loyd was lying? ‘Cause she sure seems like she’s standing on business, as far as her accusation.
