Get by that, everybody. My name is. Bart Winkler. This is the Bart Winkler show. Taping live on the Dan Shaney YouTube stream.

My light's a little weird, and my camera's a little weird.

So, my face. Is not really this red? As it looks like on the camera. I think I want to adjust that. I don't like it.

Um Giannis was 64 points. That's the story. Bucks get the revenge win over the Pacers. The revenge. Because the Pacers in the in-season tournament obviously knocked the Bucs out of that.

And then the Pacers, I think, started to feel themselves a little bit. Tyrese Halliburton was certainly excited. He had about 2,000 people. From Ashcash. Uh Come down.

We'll do this. Had about 2,000 people from Oshkash. Come down.

So people were really eager to see him. And his ascending star, and what you had then instead was a career night for Giannis. And it was interesting. with Ya with Yannis, because I Knew he was going to get 30. And then I was saying to my buddies, you know, he might actually get 40.

And then I was saying, you know. Could he possibly get a career high 56? And then Um When he went out at fifty... Eight. I thought I still think he's going to get 64.

Obviously, I'm making fun of LeBron, but big night again for Giannis Adeta Kumbo, an amazing night for the Bucs, and an amazing night for. For really Giannis. This was an interesting game because the Bucks. did seemingly have control. throughout most of it.

I there was a play that I made uh sure to make note of. When the uh With middle tip. Middleton was taking the ball up with like four seconds left at the end of half, and he turned it over, and then Buddy Heal knocked one down. I thought that's going to be the play. That's going to be the play that people are mad about.

Middleton and the Bucks and Giannis, and then you had Bobby Portis get ejected. Bobby Ready to fight. for his life. And for Yannis' honor, once Naismith kind of, you know. It was a weird chokehold.

It wasn't so much a Draymond chokehold, but it was a weird kind of chokehold. And And sure, he should have got a technical foul there. He did get ejected. The second technical, I'm not really sure. What he said, he was talking to a Pacer.

He wasn't talking to. The ref.

So I know that the refs have been kind of. Quick with the whistle all season. We saw a game where Giannis was ejected pretty early. This year, we saw Jokic get ejected in Chicago on Serbian Heritage Night. On uh on Tuesday.

So pretty insane. what went down there. Um I guess Giannis is upset. I guess there's a. I don't know what's going on.

I'm I'm missing what's happening on Bally. Jim Ozarski says Giannis at Thanassis just emerged from the tunnel that leads to the Pacers Pa Pacers locker room. Giannis was hot talking to Tyrese Halliburton. When he came back out.

Okay, this is bullshit. Will this game end? Honestly, well, this game end first of all, this game took three hours, and then I went to set up. My live stream. When Giannis got subbed out, and I look, and it's like a 10-point game.

Jake, do you have the TV on or no? I'll take Jake. Yeah, yeah, what's up?

So, this is what I just heard: is that apparently Carlisle is pissed about Giannis running up the score, and he took the game ball, so Giannis couldn't have it. And ran into the tunnel. That's what I just read. I think on Bally, they said they thought maybe an assistant coach did it, but somebody on Twitter says it was Rick Carlisle. And if that's true.

All-time bitch move right there. What are they going to do? What's he going to do with the ball? Was he going to go deflate it real quick? I don't know.

Maybe, or maybe try to give him another ball just to be like, haha, you know, I don't know. But either way, what a bitch-ass move. I mean, this God, why won't this game just end? Yeah. You know, I think Indiana got a little bit high on themselves after that.

Whatever tournament thing. And they're still riding that a little bit. But it was nice to see them get a little bit humbled tonight.

Well, okay, so first of all. Giannis got booted, or Giannis got taken from the game. Um He got taken out. When He scored fifty-eight. And I think a lot of people, the first tweet I saw was, oh my God, I turned it off.

He had 60 some. And then the Pacers were down 20, and they tried to come back. They forced Giannis back in there. Yeah, I don't understand. What are they mad about?

Did they expect the Bucks to just let them come back and win? Like, oh, sorry, we took our starters out, nothing we can do. You're just because Rick look Rick Carlisle Took his starters out with five minutes to go. in a 20-point game. Which Marcus Johnson, I think, was accurate by saying.

Um You know, you can just kind of feel like the Bucs aren't getting rid of this one, they're not letting it go. But my God, he... Like he quit with five minutes to go. Yeah. He didn't even take out like Halliburton and put in like the McConnell's.

He went straight to Jordan Wara. I was going to say, that's the human white flag right there: Jordan Noira. If he gets into an NBA game, it is over. What is happening? This is why I need to quit doing this show in my basement.

where I don't have a T V. Do you have a T V in your basement? I actually have two TVs in my basement. One Is Yeah, over there. Oh shit.

This camera's broken too. One's across there. I see.

Okay, so. And one's away in the corner over there. It's better than my basement. You just gotta put a little R R into it and it'll be a nice man cave. Yeah, here's my It's my basement.

The basement boys are back, baby. Oh, geez. Can you still hear me? Oh yeah, there it No. You sound great.

All right, Giannis is talking. Obviously the announcements are very. Yeah. Was this before the action though? They beat us twice, they beat us in the in-season tournament too.

They played really fast and it was a challenge. I'm happy that I'll be able to go out there, play, do basketball, defend good. I need somebody in the comments to give me a full recap of what occurred. Like write me a paper almost. It's been a long time.

Well, what I saw was that Halliburton and Middleton were having words, and Dame got involved, and it looked like it started a little bit heated, and then it calmed down. But then, as they showed those guys talking, all of a sudden it cut to a shot of Giannis, who was sprinting towards the tunnel with like three guys ripping his jersey trying to stop him. He got away and made it into the tunnel. A bunch of guys trailed after him.

So, yeah, he was heated. He was pissed.

Well, obviously, so the game in Vegas was chippy. Between the two teams. And there was a high-stakes game. And this is why the playoffs are so great: because. You play the same team over and over and over and the you know intent Oh, I lost him.

All my shit is broken. I can see that. I lost you for a second there, Pel. Yeah, I've I'm about to lose it. All of a sudden your skin tone went down a few octaves too.

That was weird. I know. I think I can sell somehow you got whiter, Bart. Nothing will work. Can you hear me?

I can hear you. Yeah. Yeah, all my shit is broken. It's time to buy new equipment. Yeah, this the video quality reminds me of like somebody that's been abducted by terrorists being forced to like put out a video.

denouncing their faith and like that's what it reminds me of. I I think Craig Council made a good decision. Oh. There just needs to be two guys standing behind you with guns. I'm glad he left.

I won't say the rest. Say the rest!

Okay. Uh Go, cubs, go. You committed to the bit. I like it. We shouldn't joke about that kind of stuff.

No, but it was funny. You know what? No, we should because comedy has to be offensive or it's not funny. I don't care what anybody says. It's Ed Sheeran Knight, anyway.

So, patients should devolve. Look, I think a lot of this started. I got my phone soaked. No good joke goes unpunished. It's true.

Or bad ones. Wait, now you're going to have to make an apology video, Bart, like a real one. Otherwise you're gonna get canceled. Um Okay, so a lot of this started too with. The altercation between Halliburton and Giannis.

early on in the game. And Looking at the Other replays. There was a play under the basket where Halliburton totally fell and dove. But there was a play where Giannis was like turning to the ball. But I think he gave it.

He gave it to him, and he deserved a T for that. Absolutely. Yeah. All right.

So we agree on that. I think he gave him. uh kind of an elbow there And And that I think set Halliburton off because I think like. With the Pacers. And this is the in-season tournament is the cause of tonight.

The in-season tournament Is the cause of tonight. Um because it is it's intensified the pacers. It intensified like where they feel about themselves in a good way. I have no problem with that. But this kind of scuffle doesn't happen.

Without last week, which was an additional game or a non-scheduled game.

So this Bucs Pacers thing. It's created from the In-season tournament. And it's interesting because that tournament. Put a big star on the Pacers. Remember, they were so excited to have a game on TNT.

You know? Doris Burke thought the Pacers were like the second coming. I mean, she was all in on the Pacers. But I'll give you know what I'll give the NBA credit. I was not a fan or I guess not sold on the in-season tournament.

It certainly needs a lot of tweaking, but I think it was definitely a success. And a game like tonight kind of proves that out like it it It's interesting that they got to play each other so close after that game on Saturday. Because yeah, you made a great point that without that, I don't think the shenanigans happen tonight. I don't think uh well I I should I was just gonna say that maybe Bobby Portis doesn't get ejected but I take that back because if anybody comes at Giannis that way, Bobby's going to do his thing. And for idiots that want him traded, sit down.

Well, you can't say idiots that. No, you can't do that. You can't say idiots are people that want Bobby traded and they want Middleton traded. Who won't do it? I mean Here's the thing.

What kind of value are you going to get in a Bobby Portis trade versus the value you could potentially get in a Middleton trade? Who's going to give up anything for Middleton? Middleton's like only valuable here. Is he valuable right now? Is he valuable?

To us. Are you sure? I don't know. What was his styline tonight? He looked good.

He looks like a jag to me, but you know. A jig? Yeah, just to get. A just awesome guy.

Okay. Just amazing guy. I don't know. I've been told I have to wait on Middleton and once his minutes are up he'll be back to his old self. I don't know.

Isn't he up to that thirty minute mark now-ish? How long have I been doing this show? You think I would figure out my equipment by now? Yeah, it's alright. I'm actually really pissed about this.

The older you get, your equipment does weird things to you. Like last. Last night, well at least I still at least I still take this equipment out of the box. Shh. Yeah.

And that's what a little red wine can't fix my friend. Let me uh read some comments. Yeah yeah. With what's going on. First of all.

Thanks for being here, Jake. Of course. Uh first of all My buddy sent a text. I don't know if you watched the game or not. 64 for Giannis, and we win by only 14.

What the fuck? That's like the complete wrong way to look at this.

Well no, because if Giannis scores that much, it has to be a close game, because if it's not, he wouldn't score that much. You know what I mean? Like it's a dual-edged sword. Yeah, I gotta I gotta Figure out what's going on there. All right, I got boots on the ground, I believe.

Oh. This is from Tim. Who Is in a Santa suit. With his elf and the minute I bring him on. He has disappeared.

Ah, we need that bog update. The contributions have just been phenomenal as of late. It might not be your night. People like join. And then don't want to talk.

There's somebody in here as cutlets. Are you somebody? Cutlets, do you want to talk? Is my camera not working? Is this tack?

Yeah, it's that. Hey, yeah, turn your camera on. I'm sorry, I didn't know. This is the worst. You know what?

Dan Shaney. This was a poor investment for you because none of the shit's working. I apologize. Yeah, see if you can get old Shaney on the horn. Give me some upgrade.

Dan Shaney, please buy me new equipment. For your do you need like a new camera? I have like nice, I have a few nice cameras. I can send you one. By the way, Dan Shaney, killing it with his new website that happened over the last year for all your insurance needs, home, auto, and otherwise.

And work. No, I I'll buy. I'll buy. No, this camera's all fucked up. I have a nice Logitech 4K camera I can I can provide to you.

Even a guy like Te like Tech, you have upgraded from just talking to you put on a headset. You're like. Oh, I'm wearing headphones all the time because my main TV is like right under our bedroom, and my wife is like, turn that shit down. And I'm like, I want to listen to the sporting event loud. Yeah.

You got to get her on the show. Uh no. Absolutely not. Yeah. No, I didn't my wife's never been on the show.

My wife's sitting next to me shaking her head at me. She like... I'm gonna put around. Yeah, are you in Dune? Hi, Mrs.

Hattake. He loves when I do that. Yep, talk to your boyfriends. Yeah. All right, here's some comments.

Jake R says, Good win, our bench though, woof. Again, the Pacers can't be mad about this ball situation because. They made it a game once Giannis got taken out. Taylor, absolutely no bitching tolerated about this win. tonight Congrats, Yanis.

Jalen says, great game by Giannis, but man, Dame looks bored and like he doesn't want to be playing for us lol. Giannis literally carries this team, and that shouldn't be. I'm glad someone else brought it up because. I'm not liking what I'm seeing from Dame right now, body language-wise, and like. What do you want?

The guy's in a new town. He's going through his big D. He promised some kids at Kohl's that he'd score 30 and then he didn't. My biggest issue is that. You guys see that?

No, what? He promised some kids at Cole's. that he would score 30. Oh no. And well, he got asked about it.

And then he was kind of like... He's kind of like, oh shit, now I got to do this. You are just Did y'all interviews, and before we do some shopping, I just want to let y'all know: you just asked me about the game tomorrow, right?

So, we're gonna have y'all come to the game tomorrow and watch pre-game. and watch the game.

So y'all gonna get a... A good game from us tomorrow. We got to get our lick back.

So Y'all enjoy the game.

So we are. Um I got you. I got you. I got you. That's amazing.

All right, it's going to be a 30-ball. I got you. You never.

Well, that I didn't hear the comment about 30. I just not listened to it. A kid said you're going to get us a 30 ball. And Dame said, I got you. Dame at 21 points.

Hey Scott, make our dreams come true. That was his Scott's Tots moment right there. Hold on, I think we got Santa Timmy now. Yeah. And his elf.

Where you were at the game Yeah, put up for the game. You got to see history. What was it like? It was so cool. My throat hurts though.

It was that was her first game. Ever? Yeah. Well gee, get back to the next game. Yeah.

I'll try. Keep taking her. You gotta go Saturday night against the Pistons. If Giannis at 64, I mean, he's gonna go for 70 on Saturday. Yeah, it was good to see him playing some defense and Middleton getting a little hot here and there.

It was a fun game. The other team tried to steal the pl uh play ball. Did you see that happen? Yeah, did you guys hear about that? We like kind of heard about it.

Bally Sports had no idea what was going on.

Well, we were sitting there and like they were, you know, congratulating everything off the game, and then Giannis just like. took off toward the other, um The other locker room, and then everybody followed, and like we were kind of confused. And then somebody on the way out said that, like, Indiana stole the game ball. But they were horrible. Right?

Mm, they took Bobby out. Like, yeah. Ooh, that made me mad. Oh, you like Bobby? She's a big Buckbee fan.

The big eyes? Yeah. No. All right, I gotta get her home. Go box.

We're happy to be there for history. It's a hot dig up there. Hot dig, Jake, and Tacker here, yeah. Yeah, we're buddies. What's up, heartache?

What's going on? I said, Yeah, Jack, Addie and Ariel say hello. Excellent. Hi, Jack. We'll see you on the playground, all right?

Alright, sound good. Bye. See ya. All right, look at that.

So going off that little clip we had there. Um Bobby is clearly A dude? And if we consider, if we consider shipping him or. anything that would not be good for the team. Like he will be a buck this year or If we want to be successful, he will be a buck this year, I think.

I really don't think they're trading anybody. Everybody's doing these fantastical, whimsical trades where all of a sudden we want. Like Balder, Grayson Allen, Alex Caruso. I mean, I heard Paul bring up my trade idea on the show this morning, and you know, sold him.

So, you know.

Well, how about Middleton? Yeah. What are we going to get for Middleton? I said we you know, you want to be realistic and you want to get more defensive minded. My trade was Middleton and Beauchamp for Marcus Smart and Brandon Clark from Memphis.

Then you got to have some. I have this tweet. There's some video. The Dunk Central has it. It's like one of these NBA accounts.

It's a five-second video. One of the pacers, assistant coaches, like tiptoes up to the ref. To take the ball.

So the game's over. Giannis and everybody else is going onto the court. Uh, and the ref gives the ball to the first person he sees. And it's this Pacers, it's this Pacers coach who literally is standing on the baseline or by the checkout. And as soon as he sees an opening between Giannis and Thanassus, he tiptoes like an elf.

Got Christmas on the brain and takes the ball. And then goes in that then they must have gone into the tunnel.

So again, Pacers. Feeling themselves. After the in-season tournament. Halliburton. All these guys getting more attention than they've ever gotten.

Bucks out for revenge, kick the shit out of him. And then Um Giannis goes out after they were getting them.

Okay, they're getting him the record. Big fucking deal. What do you want this to be? And again, I'm pro running up the score. I'm pro you Your whole life is dedicated to practice and routine and sacrifice.

And how many NBA games do you get if you're lucky? And then to play at this level, like Giannis. And he's supposed to come out at the five-minute mark because Carlisle gave up with five minutes to go. He's just supposed to give up. Fuck that.

That's bullshit. That that's bullshit. The the Sportsmanship. That's bullshit. Sportsmanship is bullshit.

I mean, I agree. I agree with, like, if the game is over, taking your players out, but like. The Pacers were coming back with their second. And then, when they took Giannis out, the Pacers legitimately came back close enough where the Bucs had to put guys back in. Yeah.

Are you mad they put him back in? I mean, what are you mad about? Yeah, you can't be mad they put Giannis back in because they put three other starters back in too. It's not like they were just like feeding Giannis and like making Giannis Score points. Like they put in their starting lineup.

Well, I hope that assistant coach is ready for the smoke because To me, if you're going to tiptoe in, like clearly, you are like out to do something, and I don't know. It, if I was like in my younger days, and you know, you're out and you're out in the court, and somebody comes up and steals your ball and runs away, you better be ready for what happens next. Yeah. I think it's funny that this all happens because of the in-season tournament. Like, if there was no in-season tournament, this rivalry doesn't start to.

Emerge.

Some other comments I want to read here, real quickly. Bart says, don't forget about the hemp promo. Oh, that's right. 25% off. HappyPlaceM.com.

Happy place, hemp. 25% off each and every order, whether it's the gummies or the balm or the tinctures or whatever you need. I was very tired last night and I woke up very groggy. It's amazing like. When I go to bed with alcohol induced.

I wake up and I'm very functioning. And then the nights I actually don't drink, I get a great, I get a bad night of sleep. No, Bart, there's a word for that.

Well, I'm fixing it. And that's why tonight, no drinks, but I will have a gummy to help me sleep because I did take a much needed nap. Today, happyplacemp.com promo code is Bart 25 off each and every order. Man in the falls. Jake, Matt, Tack.

What's up, Matt? Um What did I just miss? Um I missed uh Jake said something like, There's a word for that, and I think we know what we were talking about, but I missed it. Uh Super fun guy. I'm a funaholic.

You had to like, no, but what preceded that? Like, you know, what was. He puts the phone in functioning. Oh, just that I sleep better on nights where I have a couple of drinks. Oh.

That's kind of the same. That's not why we're here. We're driven by the search for better, but when it comes to hiring, the best way to search for a candidate isn't to search at all.

Indeed.com slash blue wire, terms and conditions apply. Need to hire? You need indeed. Um what about uh what do I ah god, where do I even begin? Oh, I got some video, I guess, of Giannis being mad.

So Adrian Griffin has a lot of questions. Huh? Adrian if you look at this press conference, Adrian Griffin has Bobby Portisize. Is he standing up for this whole situation or like talking shit? Because he should be.

All right, here's Giannis. Death. Yeah, we all saw that. I didn't! Everyone else did.

Yes, it's me since. Yep, yep, that's there it is.

So I wonder now, like, we gotta follow what's happening with this game ball. Because do they eventually give it back okay? Or do the Pacers take it in their locker room and, like, Fuck. Pop it or some shit. Grab a scissor.

Yeah, they're gonna stab it. Wouldn't that be nuts? I think they're gonna take it and then replace it with a different ball. And then it can be like their inside joke: like, ha ha, we got that motherfucker's ball. I kind of hope they did stab it.

That would be sick. Why? Yeah. Because that would just take like Bucs Pacers, which the one meaningful series they ever had was in the 99 playoffs. And all of a sudden, that would make this like a legit.

Rivalry. We need these central rivalries to mean something again. We had gotten a ball in the 2023 in-season tournament.

Well, besides that, I mean, if that doesn't start a rivalry. I mean that that absolutely played into tonight's game. You know, no doubt. Also, if Giannis had the ball that was stabbed, if he got that stabbed ball back. OOOOOO Hey.

You don't pull on Superman's cape, and that's what they're doing right now. Yeah, you don't spin into the wind. What is it, Bart? You don't pee on the back of someone's leg. Don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining.

Oh, there you go.

Somebody say it was pissed on their back. I was like, oh, we learned something that's what Bart's. Bart started Bart said something wrong. Bart said either back or leg, and then everyone else said that.

Well, Bart said it right.

Someone else said back, like, someone else said. I think it was the other way around. I think the more time we spend on this, though, the better. For sure. Jalen says somehow this will be about the ball being taken on the sports talks tomorrow and not Giannis and his domination.

Well, I'll tell you what. I'm going to host CBS Sports Radio on Thursday evening. And me just saying, like, hey, Giannis scored 64 points. I mean, it's like, okay, Bart, stop talking about the Bucks. Who's clanging Silverware?

Um Is someone playing with numb chucks in the background? What is going on? I'm in the kitchen. It's not your daughter this time. That's for sure.

I'm in the kitchen. You can't tell that I'm not in the basement. This is not the basement. Great. Tell everybody what the exact inside of our house looks like.

What's Put her on it. That's a weird thing to say. That's what we're doing tonight. It's the theme. Nope.

Sorry, what Jake? I was talking to her. The theme of tonight is: we're getting the wives on. My wife's eating a banana over my shoulder there. Yeah, I can see her.

She's really happy. I can see the banana more than I can see your wife. Yeah, move back over the other side of the couch if we're good radio. It's phenomenal. Yeah, if you're listening to the audio, this is one you should probably just have watched the video.

This is a video of mine. Yeah, it's not even visible. Because on the video, on the Dan Shane YouTube stream, you can see Matt's ceiling. Hey, I showed off my basement. Yeah.

Great. See what I'm sitting by. See what I'm sitting by? God damn it. Oh, here we go, guys.

The records show that Bart is now gone. This is like my grandfather hosting a podcast. There we go. Yeah, Bart, I'm gonna send you a camera. I could buy a camera.

No, I have a really nice webcam. Do you guys ever FaceTime with uh... Like a grandparent or like an old uncle? They always hold the FaceTime like this. Hi, Bart.

You just see the My grandparents are dead. That was so insensitive. Whose grandparents are alive?

Now it's just the three of us. I don't know if this makes the show, but. Oh my god, four of us. I have one grandparent living. I talked to her.

You do? Yeah, one. And you're almost forty. Hey, I want to shout out Marcus Johnson tonight because he contributed. uh to the rivalry by calling Halliburton, a wannabe superstar on the air, which I laughed at.

Who said that? Marcus Johnson. Oh wow. Was Marcus Johnson okay? I feel like he wasn't at his normal voice.

I don't know, something seemed off.

So uh honey seven little uh honey. Yeah, I thought Okay. I thought Jim Pashke kind of sounded like a woman tonight too. Uh Oh boy. Marcus, he sounded like a really disappointed dad at the end, too.

When Yannis ran into the tunnel, he's like, Don't, no, no, no, no, no, don't do this. Don't make this about. Come on now. Like he was not happy.

Now Barth and Justices. M Shark says, I love Chris, but his trade value. Is that an all-time low right now? Nobody got any better. Stop talking about trading anyone, especially Chris and Bobby.

I agree. Why? It's like. Why do we have such a fetish to trade anybody? Because Jake wants to stir the pot.

No, that contract's an issue already and it's going to become a bigger issue. Who cares? Can we just focus on this season? No one's gonna take her on that contract. Like it's The longer you wait, the less likely it is you get anything of value.

Jalen says, thoughts on Smart. Get him revenge against Boston. I. This isn't 2K. We're not just.

Making trades, isn't like fantasy. You make trades every week because you're bored. I'm not saying Memphis would do that trade that I propose, but I am saying unequivocally the Bucs are a better team if they make that trade. What di what did you propose? Middleton and Bochamp for Smart and Brandon Clark.

That's not good, they're not gonna do that.

Well, no, it's not a rumor or anything, it was just an idea. And if anybody wants to believe that they're not a better team, they're wrong. GM Jake over here. That it will it will just never happen. I'm not, oh my god.

Has Marcus Smart scored forty in the NBA Finals game? I don't care. I don't need Marcus Smart's offense. Chris Middleton is a liability on defense and his offensive game and explosiveness has gone down so much where that no longer makes up the difference. He's still silky smooth.

He is a treadmill on defense. I will say, there was an offensive possession where he tried to put a move on a dude. Oh, God. And the defender didn't even move. He didn't even yes.

I said well that play before I brought this up earlier, but that play at the end of the half where there were four seconds left, and he was going to bring it up to court, and he just got pickpocketed. It was, it was, yeah, it was the second half, though. He put on a move like he was trying to shake and bake some dude. And the other, the defender, did not. Shift.

Didn't move. You know, have you ever had like a recurring nightmare where you're paying attention? Or you have a recurring nightmare where you're being chased. My recurring nightmare is that I'm Chris Middleton and I'm dribbling a basketball up the court and somebody applies light pressure to me and then I wake up in a cold sweat. And you're in quicksand, right?

Yes. Jim Ozarski tweeting the box. Head colour. You know what? I saw a tweet today that if you call it X, you're admitting where you were on January 6th.

Wow. That's the tweet I saw today. I was going to send it to you, but I know you were. Yeah. The thinking is if you call it X, you're in the tank for Elon.

That's what the thinking is. And nobody's more anti-Eline than Matt. Right. But also, I've never met anyone so So Strict about calling it X than Matt. Because, okay, the reason that I'm so strict about calling it X is that.

One of the funniest things that he's done is change the name because It's one of the most recognizable brands in the world, and that was a big part of what he bought for $44 billion. And he. Completely destroyed it and destroyed a large part of the value of the business. Finally, the brand, the bluebird, the words, tweet, Twitter, they're all gone. You're saying it's an own to go.

I love it, and I make. I love calling it X. Because it represents his failure as a businessman because he's an idiot. I like it. I might be on the Xbox on the On board with Matt here, it's Axno.

Yeah, see? I'm gonna send out the that was the X I saw. Anyway, I'm reading an X from Jim Ozarsky. That Adrian Griffin said he kept the starters in the game because there was too much time left. He pointed out how the Pacers cut the lead to 10.

So And I agree. Like... Just make just because Carlisle took, what is that noise now? Water bottle. Why is everybody's microphone like dialed up to a hundred?

And mine like barely works. I'm on the iPad, so just get someone else to stream next time. All right, I have I have a couple of other things here. Worldwide Wob. Says that The guy who took the ball is wearing a Bucks quarter zip.

Wait, s so you're saying they sent someone in disguise, maybe? No, no, this is Mutumbo. No, that's not him. That's not him. This is a Bucs assistant coach that took the ball.

He must have got it back then.

So what are what are we managing? We need clarification on that story because obviously Giannis isn't just. You know. Yannis knows his coaches. He's not going to go chasing after him like he's going to steal a ball.

Wait, didn't Giannis have like 38 free throws? I think this is Nate Mitchell. I think this is assistant coach Nate Mitchell. Wow, okay, so that's interesting. I also have you'll be able to see it on the Alt 22.

Yeah. I have a clip of uh Rick Carlisle. Talking about Why they were pissed. It's like a minute. We always get the game ball.

We were not thinking about Yeah, this is franchise record So we grabbed the ball and Wait, what did he I gotta what did he start with? Hold on. It was Mr. Shigway's first NBA official NBA point.

So, one of their guys had a first.

So, I don't understand what's happening. I think you just said it.

Now he's saying we wanted the game ball, but it was clearly a Bucs guy. Who took the ball? Nobody knows. Did this guy Connor stallions this shit? What's that mean?

We always get the game ball. We were not thinking about Be honest is franchise record So we grabbed the ball and A couple of minutes later, Several of their players ended up in our hallway. And there was a big Uh a big uh I don't know, I don't know what to call it, a fracas, melee, whatever. I don't think any punches were landed, but my general manager got elbowed in the ribs. one of their players.

Um And So he certainly has a bruised bruised rib and who knows you know, if it's anything more than that, but Uh Unfortunate situation. We don't need the official game ball. There's two game balls there. You know, we could have taken the other one, but it didn't need to escalate to that. And so Yeah.

Uh really this You know Unfortunate. Third game we played these guys within two. And a half, three weeks.

So. Things are heated with the competition. And uh You know, I I understand all that. But for it to come into the hallway was It didn't need to happen that way. Coffee for Farm says that's a quick diagnosis on a bruised rib.

I'm calling bullshit. I love that part. Uh Adam wants to know what the fuck is uh kerfuffle? I think it's Kerfluffle. No, it's kerfuffle.

He said kerfluffle? Is it fuffle? No. I've been corrected multiple times now. Yeah, it's kerfuffle.

It means a little skirmish. Matt, it's New Orleans. Mm. Oh. It's def so okay, so kerfuffle is a word that is accepted.

I'm just throwing F's out there at this point. That is a word where it is acceptable to say it incorrectly. Bay what did you say this morning? Or sorry, yesterday, whatever it was, Bay Bay month, what was it? Behemoth.

Awesome. No, please not say behemoth. Behemoth. You said it in such a strange way that I can't even imagine the way you said it. I heard it and I just fucking crashed on him.

Behemoth is the word, and you were like behemoth. I don't know what it was. Behemoth. You can go back. I don't know.

Oh, I didn't say behemoth? No, you didn't say behemoth. You said something very strange. You acknowledge that Bill's behemoth. Grant Bells was fucking losing his shit.

Yes, experiment. You said that. Yeah. You guys, I have this innate ability to completely forget everything I say. And that's okay.

And that's okay. I don't remember. I'll remember this night as the night that Uh none of my shit worked. It's New Orleans, by the way. Thank you.

That's what I said in my voicemail. You can play that. It's only like three seconds long. All right, Chris Haynes, who gets all the intel from. Damon Giannis at all times.

Allegedly. BR sources: initial explanation from one member of Pacers to Bucks players as to why they took the game ball. They wanted to give it to the rookie who scored his first. Basket. He was the only rookie to register his first point.

He made a free throw. Buck Security was able to retrieve the game ball for Giannis. I did a coombal.

Sources say. I think one thing we need to realize here, especially around Christmas time, is that these are all just material possessions. And what really matters around this time is. The holidays and family. And Janice.

Are you eating popcorn? What is happening? Chips, chips. Are those pork rinds? What do you think?

Eat one. Eat a fucking chip, man. Put it together. Eat the worst That sounded like a terrible chip. They're not good.

I think I got these at Woodman's, but they're lays. Is this a band? Are you doing a band? They're Woodman's Lays. Is this a bit Oh, off-brand lathe?

Come on, you gotta, you gotta smoke. But I got them at a woodman's, so they're worse. Those are goaded. They are our worst. Matt, was it you that talked about wood?

And then also white people where the microphone would have been. And I realized that as I was reaching into the on topic, Bart, your take that groceries aren't expensive, trash take. My wife does the shopping. I don't know. It's a banana.

What can it cost? Good one, heart. Ten bucks? Nice. No, but I'm a deal hunter.

Do I need to help you guys out? Here's the following apps on my phone to help me save money that I have referral codes for. Uh Ibada, Fetch, ReceiptPal, Pogo, CoinOut. Inbox dollars. Shopkick, check out 51.

You're making up some of these. Anyone want any of these apps? Half of those were made in. Bart, time out. Could you, like, when you have a little piece of paper that has like a deal?

on it and you hand it to the cashier. What is that called? A coupon. Oh, you did it. Nice.

I'm proud of you. Thank you. Yeah. But I like sometimes when you're in newspapers, when they just say, like, Today's And then you put a big Q and put Q-pons. Who does that?

No. The passion advertiser used to do it, Tacnos. I don't know. We almost made it through without saying it. I know actually the advertiser.

I wanted to make a point about Lillard before Game Ballgate took over. I just want to see him be more aggressive with the ball in his hand. That's what we've got. Stop it. That's what we brought you in for.

We didn't bring you in to defer. Like, we want you to take those shots and come off the dribble and shoot. Like you are here to score the ball, so do it. I thought I'm kind of mad that Dame let those kids' nights down because you know they were counting for 30. And then even in the fourth quarter, when Dame had the chance to shoot more, he was passing it.

I think the kids will be okay getting to see Giannis score 64. I don't like, yeah, Gianna scored 64, but they were promised 30. You know what else I don't like? I don't like any Middleton trade talk, and I don't like any talk about Dame looking sad. Just an observation.

It's more of a comment, really.

Alright, I need to know who puts the microwave right now.

Okay. I heard a microwave sound. My wife just asked if Tack was drunk. I think that's just his voice. Yeah.

That's good. Yeah, I just mumble. I mumble. No, bottles in the back don't help, and your headphones are on crooked and you. Wearing a hat inside, like you're So, you know what I'm drinking the water from?

This is from this. Hey, hey. This is from our tailgate. I would like to address those points. Oh, you sounded drunk then.

Just now.

So Oh. Absolutely. Bottles are where we keep our bottles. Sure. Is there anything left in those bottles?

Mm-hmm. Yeah. I can take you over there if you'd like. Um The headphones are, I have one ear open. Are you mixing a set right now?

Uh Pardon? Are you mixing a set right now? Would you hear your monitors? Oh, no, no, no. I'm not mixing anything.

But if I have two young children, I have a four and a five-year-old.

So if they make any noise, I need a free ear here.

So I have one here. I like I like the strategy. Did you say a five and a four year old? Mm-hmm. Oh, you just back them right out one after the other, and you're done with them.

Oh, yeah. They're 16 months apart. That's it? Enjoy this like last year tech because this is the point where everything starts to fucking suck. Oh, it already sucks.

Yeah, it's only going to get worse. Tonight tonight was so bad. I can't even I can't even Pardon? Bed time? Yeah.

five to seven five to eight p.m. was bad oh that's the that's the that's the zone five to eight the mayhem zone We call it the witching hour. Yeah. The seven to eight. It's the witching three hours.

Yeah, you think that's a good idea. The last hour. It's the last hour before bedtime that just goes. Crazy. All right, a couple comments I wanted to read.

Danis had 64 points tonight.

Well, I do want to read some comments. He's okay. This comment is from Bart. He says, Do Tupelo. Oh, that's right.

Tupelo honey. has a deal Where if you put Bart Winkler show in the notes. of your reservation, you get 20% off your meal. We did this in November. It was extended through December.

Now, what's also happening. Is if you make this reservation starting Friday from the 15th to the 24th, when they do have a Christmas Eve brunch and they're closed on Christmas Day. But if you make the reservation and go there, whether it's people for the holidays, you don't want to cook, all the reasons you would go and get some good southern cooking at Tupelo Honey downtown Broadway, Cliveborn, right next to the public market. Is that you get 20% off your meal, your food? and you get either a free dessert or appetizer.

Ooh. Put the Bart Winkler show in the reservation notes or tell your server if you happen to just stroll on by. 20% off. Through the end of December, and then the free apps from Friday or dessert Friday until Christmas Eve. JR asked.

Not to be a downer, but with points insane these days. Is this even a big deal? Over-unders are what all-star games used to be. Sure, cool, I don't know. Eliza says, yes, it's a big deal, partly because Giannis did this without making a single three.

It's a big deal. It's a franchise record, it's 60-plus points. I get you might be fatigued with like 30-point games or oh, a 40-point game. How you know, you see those maybe a little bit more, but anything 50 or up is still going to be celebrated like this. It is rare.

58 was super rare. That was the Bucs record when he said it. Then he came back in up to 64. I mean, this was an all-time performance. This was as good as it gets from Giannis.

I love that the point to go to 58, which broke the record. I love that that came on a free throw where Giannis had 32 of them, made 24.

So 75% from the line. Quick math, thank you. 64 point. Thank you. Thank you.

0 of three for threes, and then 20 of 28 from the field, which is just bonkers. Another comment here. Jerry wants to know how the gym visit went. I cancelled that. Yeah.

No, I went. I went. I went. Not only did I go. Not only did I go to a gym to sign up.

But I then did a light workout. Upon, because sometimes it's like signing up is the first battle. No, I stayed there and I did some treadmill.

Okay. I did a little bit. Uh and I I paid. in full for a full year. Who what, like 120 bucks?

More than that. What gym? There's a gym by my house. What's him? It's a change, yeah.

What does it matter? Matt, send me Bart's address. I mean anybody else Just Google Bitcoin. Anytime fitness. Jesus Christ.

Right. Jake's gonna, well, Jake's gonna. Why don't you go to Jake's gym, first of all? No, I might randomly run into you, Bart. We'll see what happens.

Jake's a big guy in the 50s. Because this gym, I can actually walk to this gym.

Okay. That's more of a workout?

Well, because what I'm going to do, what am I going to do if I go to Jake's gym? I'm going to get in the car. He's going to work me hard. And then I'm going to say, boy. Watch out.

And then I'm going to say, boy. I really work good. I deserve some fast food on the way home. I really work good. Bart.

What's the further walk? The gym or the daycare? Daycare's a little bit farther than the gym. How much? Like a block.

And you're driving. No, I walked.

Well, I did drive. I mean, it was cold as fuck. Qu question? Um so Do you work out in the clothes that you go to and from the gem in. Yeah.

Yeah. I would wear the gym clothes to the gym. Just don't ask him if he showers there, Matt. Please don't let's not go down there. No, but I was like, how many people have sex in those showers, you think?

Um probably not that many. Oh. So One of the gyms I go to you're going to, but um, in the at the gyms that I've gone to in the past, uh, which are the wax. Twenty-four hours gyms, you don't think someone's like, Hey, uh, twenty-four hours. I don't know about that.

Yeah, then that I mean, that seems like a meet up spot for n nasty nasties. Um I can't help you there. Anyway, anything else, Bucks? Please Christ? I feel like it sounds like a meet up spot for dudes.

Anyone? Yeah, um You seem to know a lot about it. I look, I walked in the gym bathroom. Took a Turkish bathroom. And I just wondered, hmm, I wonder if anyone has sex in here.

Maybe that's just your crude mind. I just, is that a bad wonder? I just, I wondered. I think that a lot of places. Last time I went to Walmart, it's like fucked by the lettuce.

Is a wonder a noun like that? I wondered. I wondered. Interesting. Bren says: What will the reaction be if we lose to the Pistons next game?

When is it tomorrow? Are we done? That's Saturday. Are we done hyper-reacting to games? We're feeling good because we beat the Pacers.

We beat the Bulls the other night. But we will. Hot take. We will lose a game. We're John reacting hyper reacting to both football and basketball.

No, we will lose another game. Mm. High thanks Jake is I'm still livid about it. Fuck that guy. Oh, oh, Brent, yes, yes.

They have a 21-game losing streak. Yeah, we can't fucking lose. I will be pissed. To whom? But distance.

21 game losing streak. Burrs lost their 18th in a row, and the Pistons have lost a shitload in a row. Wait, the Pistons are currently on a 21-game losing game. And the Spurs are on an 18-one. What?

Pavovich has a strategy we've never seen before. Yeah. Someone's asking if uh If Yanis Getting these points without making a single three is something to be happy about. I don't know what the downside is. It's not like he took 15 threes.

He took three threes. He'd be a lot happier if he took zero. Yeah. It's a fun fact and nothing more. Yeah.

It's on still nothing. Yeah. Yeah. Spur oh my god, are you fucking with me? We've got the we've got the Uh A Pistons on Saturday, who are in a long losing streak.

We have the rockets. On Sunday night. And then we have the Spurs. on Tuesday and all these games are at home.

Sounds like the Packers schedule. Except, you know, the fucks who win these games and not fucking choke on their own things. Is that what made you have that reaction? The reaction I just had? Yeah, is there something more?

No, I was just stunned that we played the Spurs because we're close to the Pistons. And I thought it was back-to-back until I remembered that they played on Sunday also. They're all at home, you said? They're all at home, yes. We actually played three and a half straight weeks at home.

Well, that would have been the case, but they went to Vegas for a game. You know what that means, right? On my eyes. Really sorry about that. You know what that means, though, right?

Well, I know they get to sleep in their own bed. What else does it mean? It means that. At some point Jans is gonna sit one of those games. For no reason at all, and some little children are gonna have their hearts broken.

And some dads are gonna be angry 'cause they spent a lot of money on tickets. Let's, yeah. Yeah, you want to spend half an hour on that? Let's go. Why is it gonna be a little bit more?

if if the if you pay for a game and the bucks don't play yannis Should the Bucks refund your ticket or should Giannis be on the hook for that himself? Oh, Giannis, you gotta pay. You gotta pay out all the tickets. No, no, no, no. It's Milwaukee.

Just give them money. Because if you change your number. If you change your jersey number. You have to buy the inventory of the old jersey. Did you know that?

That's not real. It doesn't sound real, but I'm pretty sure it is. It doesn't sound real, but I just made it up. Ports. No, I just in the case of like, you know, you want to go see Giannis and he doesn't play.

It's Milwaukee. We're fucking simple people. Give them a 99 cent t-shirt that they throw out of the cannon and a $13 Coors Light, and they'll be happy as a piggy. If the cannon even works. I'm sorry, take it out of the cannon, just hand it to him.

Appreciate it. On the YouTube stream. It says any UWM talk. Oof, what's up with how bad they are? The Panthers lost tonight.

To logwood. Yeah. Tell me. They lost to Longwood. They lost to Green Bay.

Yeah. I'm not going to say Bart Lundy is the bad coach, but they got fire, Bart. Fire Bart. Yeah, hey, Brent, he's right. It's why Savage didn't change his number to 21 because he was 26 and he wanted to change it to 21.

And they said, no, Darnell, you have to buy all your jerseys. That is 100% true, at least from what I know, Bart. Wait a minute. How many Darnell Savage jerseys could they have possibly printed? Like six or seven?

200 of them. That like the the 100 and 100 a potential Two grand. I don't know. All I know is the total inventory would be what is 20 grand. And no, he gets a discount.

Mark. You know he's getting cost. He's not paying retail for that. Yeah. Bart's checking it right now on his computer.

Were you right? Corey wants to know if anyone's on hook for the Drew jerseys. No, it once you're traded. His wife was. EJ Max is on the hook for those jerseys.

We build Lauren Holiday. That's why she wrote that letter. Yeah, 'cause she got a bill on the way out. She was pissed. That stupid piece of crap.

Jeffrey says, just throwing it out there that UW volleyball is playing in the final four tomorrow. Go get him boys. I really I guys I really Planned on doing a live stream for that. But with how the equipment is working tonight, I just don't think I can pull it off. Oh, Bart, I'm sending you an overnight.

4K. Webcam. I just can't pull it off, guys. Yeah. Chauvinistic Misogynistic pig comment.

Probably. Yeah, how dare you? How dare you? You're true. I'm rooting for the five.

What is the final four? Is Nebraska in there? Don't put me on the spotlight. Nobody has any idea, Tag. No.

Wisconsin's eyeball is Mm-hmm. Jeffrey, who do we got? Yeah, give me the deets, Jeffrey. Give me the bracket, the spread. Because Nebraska volleyball is like the Top of the top.

Oh, they sold out the stadium, yeah. Who they have Texas? Texas. Wisconsin is Texas. Does that they play Play Texas?

Yes. Okay. Yeah, but Nebraska is the number two seed. That's my assumption. I just want to point out, I started to talk Packers and then this happened.

So my conscience is clean on this. Oh, if we're going to, I do want to just bring up some Packers' points, if I may. I would love to. Men's volleyball is much better. It's ridiculous.

I thought this account, Bay of Cheese, had a nice tweet.

Okay. Joe Berry's defense in fourth quarter clutch situations in twenty twenty three. Week two, game-winning field goal drive by the other team. Week three. They got a stop, saved by a missed field goal.

Week five, go-ahead touchdown drive by the other team. Week seven, go-ahead field goal drive. Week 11, got a stop, saved by a drop. Week 13, stop, saved by no pass interference. Week 14, game-winning field goal drive.

Joe Berry sucks. And now Matt LaFleur is trying to be all like. Mad at him in the press conference. One thing you should do is just fire him then, if you're going to be mad at him. Here's what I don't get.

Yes, Joe Berry sucks, but we knew that. I have a big issue with Joe Berry, but my bigger issue from Sunday night was. Yeah. You have to be able to put up more points than what you did and like. How are you just From game to game.

To look from the way they looked against Kansas City to then the way they looked against the Giants, it doesn't make sense to me. And I've mentioned it in my voicemail. I don't know if... It's going to get played or not, but you guys carried LaFleur's water when you were talking about him on. He called a shitty game.

Um He had a stupid challenge in the first half. But I don't Watching this guy coach, he may have all the knowledge in the world, but his in-game coaching. leaves me pining for the days of Mike McCarthy. That's how bad it is. Peter Bukowski said he's one of the top five coaches he'd take to start a franchise.

That's Pete for you. He got the engagement he was so desperately seeking, I'm sure. Mm. Stalis Thompson says, Don't forget to watch Minister of Defense 30 for 30 tonight on Reggie White. I'm not a big documentary guy, I have a hard time getting into him, but I'm not sure if I'm not a big Reggie White guy.

Interesting. What happened to that money for the church? Yeah, amongst other Things Yeah, yeah, yeah. What Red Favre got interrogated for like ten hours today or yesterday? Yeah, in some about the the Mississippi thing with the misappropriated funds.

Allegedly. Allowed you to look. But totally. Dame's fifth place all time on the three-point shot made list. That was cool.

I always think when I see Ray Allen's name come up and stuff like this. Imagine Ray Allen playing in today's game with the green light to just shoot threes whenever the hell he wanted. Like, he would have an untouchable record if that was the case. Oh f right on with Tops of the tops. Steph Curry is a better shooter than Ray Allen was.

Is that factually correct? I mean just looking at them shooting, seeing the shots and yeah. But like statistically, is that right? I don't know. So what's your opinion?

I don't care. That is actually a good question. Will Draymond be back? Will Draymond be back from suspension? But for the Bucks.

play in Golden State on March sixth? No. Kick them out for the season. Make an example. Agreed.

Season. Kick him out lifetime ban. Ooh. I'm so sick of draying my green boat.

So you're not playing basketball anymore. Like he's literally just trying to hurt people. They have to make an example. But I do like that every Draymond. Every Draymond Occurrence.

There is enough wiggle-room. No. Listen, finish, sent it as small as it is. For him to get on the podium and say it was not on purpose. Besides Gilbert.

He could say, like, I didn't mean to step on Sabonis. I didn't know he was there. He can say, I was just, that's, I was just going for, I didn't mean to everybody shoots jump shots and kicks people in the balls on their release. That, yeah. Totally.

But I I I dislike your golden state. Defense and all that just I'm not defending Draymond. It seems like you might be. No, I'm saying that with Draymond, it's like it's always like... He can if he wants to.

Um Be like, Ell, what I meant was They bark. Yes, what what is Brett doing right now? I don't know. Well why don't you text him? His his brother Tim?

Who is no Bart's brother is Tim Shea right now. But I have a brother that works for the Warriors. Everyone knows that. He is no, he doesn't work for the Warriors. He's the PR director for the Warriors.

What is he doing right now about Draymond Green? He's texting me and saying, Go on your podcast and defend him tonight. No, I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. Joke, joke, joke.

Joke, joke, joke. Hey, speaking of brothers. If you get a chance, go back and look at Thanassis' reaction to Giannis getting thrown to the floor. It was phenomenal. That's what I was trying to say a long time ago.

I was trying to say. The ball that he scored the points with, material item. What Giannis should be happy about, especially around Christmas time, is that his family member was like, hold me back, hold me back in that moment. That's amazing. Oh, that wasn't even like, hold me back, hold me back.

That was like, somebody grab him. He went primal. It was great. All right, we're wrapping up tonight's show because you need time to go to Splash Sports and sign up for my pick'em pool, of which 17 people have done. This is going to be some hell of a contest.

$3.21 short on my uh. The bank or my uh My splash sports account. I don't know how that's possible. That's just tough. Nobody watches those games, Bart.

Was 20 too much that I've done 10? Maybe five? I don't know. Five? No, that's twenty.

Bart, send me the link. I will sign up and choose. I don't know if I would have done it for free, Bart, to be honest with you. Like, I don't want to sit down and look at all these games. And I'm just done with college football.

So. Well you don't care. I don't blame you for that one. Click Click a box. Tech, you know what I did tonight?

I love to hear it.

So we were in the same guillotine league together, and I'm still alive. I'm so surprised you said that correctly. Guillotine? Guillotine. Guillotine.

We're in the same guillotine lead together and. Every week you can. Spend money for free agents of the teams that lose their players and lose their teams. Until week 14. Hold on.

That's the kicker. I know the rules. Because what happened was. All these guys were. I didn't realize that.

Yeah. So you can pick eyes up until the very, very end. Then you can't keep picking guys up. Otherwise, everyone's team is insane.

So at six o'clock. I'm refreshing at six o'clock. I'm refreshing, refreshing, refreshing. I did this for an hour. My son had to go to the bathroom, and I had to help him wipe.

And in between wipes, I'm refreshing. And then I realized an hour later. We can't pick up guys. Yeah. So I spend an hour of my life doing that tonight.

The pul the pulse I listened to the Paul Church in uh Like podcasts. Yeah. He's like the geezing guy. And he reiterates it every week, week fourteen. The war.

See, this is why I can't do fantasy football anymore. Because it ruined the enjoyment of football for me. No, well, guillotine leagues are fun. Talk to Bart. Jake talks a bar about Geith.

No, literally, what happened is, like, I was in three leagues, and they were all pretty high stakes. And I would sit there every Sunday and just be a grouchy piece of garbage. That's why you have to join looking at stats and like just that's why you have to join 10 of them because then you start to manage them differently. If you're just in three leagues, you're watching these games and you're like, oh, I need this guy in this, but not in this. And then you get hyper crazy about it.

If you join 10, Then you can just set your lineups, watch the games, be aware who you have. And then check them later. No, I don't even I don't do any of that. I fucking set my lineups on Sunday morning and then I just watch football and have fun. And then on Monday afternoon, I look at my standings.

Like what I just hate losing someone. All right.
