[00:03:00] And as always, with your play by play segment,
[00:03:03] you can watch this audio podcast on video head over to the Bryce,
[00:04:05] about it. Of course, your baby boy cannot do it alone. And so I'm excited this month. I have the baby boy. You might know him from the circle. You might know him from survivor
[00:04:10] news, but I have the baby boy, Jack Atkins here with me. And we are talking all things
[00:04:16] sports this month. Of course, we have to give you a lamello ball update. We are talking
[00:04:22] the Buffalo Bills, Pete Carroll, Aaron Rodgers and Jimmy Kimball. We are back with January's purple pants play by play. We normally have our host Joey Hatch, but he is away on a trip. So the baby boy, Jack Atkins is here and available. So listen, we got the baby boy new year kind of with a fret with a cut. Just a new start, but I want to just clean up a little bit. Okay. Starting to look a little homeless. So, you know, needed a cut, new to shave the stash. That was my agent. She said, they got to go. So, okay. If the agents say it got to go,
[00:07:01] then it has to go. Well, you know, Jack and I have true not some of them be sending me messages, Jack. So I got a message from one of them. We're like, we just got updated that like a lamellaball has been upgraded to possibly playing on Friday. And then I got Sports Center was saying that Miller ball was suited up with the team. And so he was back, but we lost, but it's all right.
[00:08:23] You know, but he still was out there getting the rebounds,
[00:08:25] getting his little dunks in.
[00:08:26] But more importantly, what I wanted to talk about re-allow him to play with it not covered? So they did, NBA did make a decision saying that he could wear. He doesn't have to cover it with a band-aid. He pushed back basically saying that it is his middle name, it is a close family members name. So the NBA has allowed for him to wear.
[00:09:42] So here's the thing that I don't necessarily understand.
[00:09:45] I get it, right? to somewhere on me show some love. I also need to check out his clothing line. I don't think I've ever really purchased anything when my dress kind of expensive. And so you know the way my budget is set up. I, Next Christmas. Maybe next Christmas, maybe next Christmas, Santa will be blessing me. Also in ball news, Lonzo Ball has returned.
[00:11:03] You know, he plays for the Chicago Bulls and ball, young talent healthy and playing. So I don't really care who it is. I'm just glad that people are healthy and there's more fun players and hopefully he can return from the injury in the sense that he can get back to his old form so let me just not be real quick. So you said seven teams from each conference make it into the what the playoffs. Okay. And then there is a wild or the first round because the wild card teams technically the playoffs, but I would imagine that a team will rather just get right in the playoffs and not have to play in the wild card game. All have to play in the wild card. It's the buy. There's only two people have to play for the Ravens. The bills are paying the fans $20 an hour to come to the stadium and help shovel out the snow. Like that just sounds crazy to me. However, I hear that is quite normal. And I hear that in some states
[00:16:23] similar to New York or upstate New York, they drunk, watch the game tomorrow and say, I show without section right. So I think it would be a little more advantageous if they're like, you shovel out, you could come to the game. Yeah. And I wonder how quick they get that's when you dollars like you getting it in cash or
[00:17:43] you got to submit a W two.
[00:17:45] Yeah.
[00:17:46] That's a it's. But I mean, I also love the, I guess that's the beauty
[00:19:03] of getting earning home field advantage is that, You know, a lot of times I hate to admit, so I'm a Jaguars fan. I don't even wanna get started on our season, but because I'm on Pacific time, and you know, usually the games are Sunday after night out on Saturday, it's Pacific time, it's like 10 a.m. Sometimes I'll get up for like just a second half or what I'll do on YouTube,
[00:20:21] they have like the full game highlights
[00:20:24] where it's like all the plays,
[00:20:25] but it just cuts out the time in between.
[00:20:27] So I'll just wake up, mute all my notifications I want to say a lot of seasons. And we're double digit. He's being the head coach longer than I've been alive. So he's been at it for a really long time. People have been saying or when they announced that he was retiring. Everyone, I guess the organization and Pete, you know and I think he might have had like another year left on the contract. The Seahawks were like, hey, we want you to stay. But regarding that 37 million, we wanna change the number. And so Russell was like, no, run me my 37 million and we could see what's up. And so due to that, essentially he was benched.
[00:23:01] And I guess he is leaving.
[00:23:04] I'm not sure maybe you could fill me in, but people are.
[00:23:06] He's in Denver now. 15 points, it came to like two points. They lost by, but it was really just showing like how he still kept his head up high and was really like, although this might be my last game, like I'm in it to win it. I always hear that between the NFL and the NBA, the NBA money is guaranteed as opposed to the NFL money is not guaranteed.
[00:24:22] How can you try to renegotiate a player standing up for their personal best interests. But I think that comes out of balance with the team, but plus strategic edition of The Plicy, website for details. Hello, it is Ryan and I was on a flight the other day playing one of my favorite social spin slot games on Chumbak Casino.com. I looked over the person sitting next to me and you know what they were doing. They're also playing Chumbak Casino. Go incidents? I think not. Everybody's loving having fun with it. Chumbak Casino is home to hundreds of casino style games that you can play for free anytime

[00:27:03] So sign up now at Chumbak Casino.com to claim you're a free welcome bonus. they were essentially, the head coach was trying to save his job. And so they were like, well, maybe if we could take money from Russell or something, I don't know. I just seemed to look. It seemed like a complicated situation out there and probably led to some fractures in the organization. So I'm curious to see, because I think at the point that they bench him, they weren't fully eliminated from the possibility of making the playoffs.
[00:28:24] Or a my card. And then it really came out that he wasn't vaccinated. And then Rogers really did admit that he was kind of like being, you know, a little deceptive. Then I guess on the Pat Magigisho. Yeah. Was it Pat Magig?
[00:29:41] Mac, Mac, Mac, is that on the show said that Jimmy Kimball was going to be listed as one of the people on there. And so Jimmy Kimball took the Twitter and was like, yo, a hole. I've never been,
[00:32:02] but Rogers said it semi-jokingly. And the thing is, Kimball has bashed Rogers
[00:32:07] on multiple occasions, justifiable, maybe,
[00:32:12] but then Rogers fires something back
[00:32:14] and you go on Twitter and go on this wall.
[00:32:16] I think he threatened to like sue him.
[00:32:18] It's sort of like, well, if you're gonna dish it out,
[00:32:20] the moment someone comes back at you a little bit,
[00:32:23] you can't just be like, I'm gonna get my lawyers involved.
[00:32:25] Like, you know, it's, I'm saying I think the way that Rogers says it it was obviously like not like an actual accusation And like of course the whole vaccination thing separate conversation But I've also I saw a clip of like Kimmel just pulling up a picture of Aaron Rogers and like making fun of his haircut Like his man bond or whatever. So it's like
[00:33:41] Again in terms of like who's actually in the right right?
[00:33:44] Probably Kimmel, but you can't really like be knocking someone for like NBA, I think I've been doing this for maybe four years. You know, when the rookies come in, you know, the baby boy gets excited and I always create my rookie list. And so I think this one of my rookies won't mind just to always have to reach out to people like, wait, what's their name? Who this is?
[00:35:00] But like, yeah, I, I mean, you guys saw this in your notes, but I'm excited to talk some
[00:35:05] NBA rookies because, you know, I got some guys too.
[00:35:08] So. him. No one really knew. But reports have now come out that there have been seven counts of petty Larson, Larson, he has been filed in, I don't know, in some district court. But essentially my man of my car or, you know, put a little bottle of water at the bottom of my car. Just, you know, like there are some things like I can. Again, I have not making any excuses, but there are, you know, sometimes, and again, this is a very young me.
[00:37:40] I'm talking about 15, 60, 17.
[00:37:43] It's like I might have 20 dollars for Ryan though, like one, like I want to know like do you just kind of enjoy taking something here and there or is there a gambling problem? Is that like I don't know. There has to be more to the story. I would guess some, you know, maybe growing up. Yeah, he had to do and it's just a habit that he couldn't shake, but it's like do your
[00:39:03] making a lot of money. I mean, I do. I mean, I have a list of rookies that I have every year that I follow. And that a You are but what my true and quote on wait, one of my full list, I just need like a wait, but one of my rookies came under heat. Not that long
[00:40:20] ago for some alleged like videos at him with I have the stash. So, you know, they call me, you know, young. I'm dead.
[00:43:00] But now we have to take it to some Philadelphia news. board member not you sitting on the board of the school board and you're attacking this woman but one thing about the tick-tock and I follow this a guy. I think his name is Danish, you know Consequences consequences consequences of my auctions. Have you ever seen his videos Jack? Oh, I'm a yeah So he's like a social justice page. So
[00:44:06] was asking for his resignation. And then obviously since this, no surprise, here you are at an Eagles game, assaulting a woman. And that's what you're drunk behind get where he's like
[00:44:11] literally walking up on her as you see, and she kind of like puts her arm out and his little
[00:44:15] drunk behind falls to the ground. Now, if you watch the video, he
[00:44:20] is down there for 20 seconds. Right. His, yeah that one, but this was at a Packers. It looked like a Packers in the Eagle span. And mind you, this one fan, this kid, kid had to be like 16, a bigger guy. And he was a just want to make sure I see the clip real quick. Hold on. Where is it?
[00:45:42] So yeah, he was. Wait, I want to just see what Jersey he had on, but mind you, it's like why?
[00:45:47] Yeah. I was at a game when I was like nine years old, and I had like my face painted for like, I was like a Steelers Ravens game and I was just in a country. I kind of like the Ravens. So I like painted my face purple. And I was legitimately nine. And we're like walking to the stadium and like some, like already something year old Steelers fan
[00:47:00] like called me a pussy.
[00:47:02] I was like, I was like, damn, like it's not that deep.
[00:47:06] It's like I'm nine.
[00:48:03] like how they played and like, as, you know, I started liking them in like third grade. So I was like, oh, I like Jaguars.
[00:48:06] I like their colors like, and then I just stayed with them.
[00:48:09] And we've had a lot of despair, a lot of tough years, but
[00:48:14] has the once the last time the Jaguar made it to the wild card.
[00:48:21] So, so last year, actually, we won the division. Well, we were up like, uh, 20 to 10 in like the fourth quarter and then Brady bit his thing and they ended up winning. And then, uh, I think they'd lost the Eagles in the Super Bowl that year. I think that's the, the Eagles won. Um, but. And we had more Eagles Super Bowl. Almost.
[00:49:40] But, uh, it's really the only season we really like had a lot of, had some success.
[00:50:43] TikTok in the club, we be vatting, okay? He like, so, okay.
[00:50:45] He is a little problematic and frustrated
[00:50:51] because I feel like he does have a lot of potential
[00:50:53] and he is a young player, but all last year,
[00:50:57] I had a lot of smoke for a job
[00:50:59] because I just felt like, what are you doing?
[00:51:02] And then on top of you getting in trouble
[00:51:07] for having firearms in videos, back because he's one of the most exciting players in the league. And like we talked about earlier, like, we're like, we're like, we're Melo Lanzo, we need those players playing. Yeah. On the court. So, um, yeah, he literally, I think it was three weeks ago, just came off of the 25 game suspension and not even in a game, but on a practice on a Saturday.
[00:52:23] Uh, he injured himself, uh, but he did post three or four, but yeah, I know what you're saying. When I said, James, I'm trying to play me on a play by play. And speaking of, you know, we don't want to let Ben know about this, but we got some Patriots news, one of the most decelerated coaches in the NFL ever.
[00:53:41] Bill, my drama, kill his name.
[00:53:45] Bellachack.
[00:53:46] Bellachack. coaches in their respective level of football. All out. You know, so it's I mean, I mean, I'm gonna wave, I guess. I don't know if the Jags need a new coach. I mean, you know, our coach actually coach the our coach coach, the Eagles, that's Super Bowl. Doug Peterson, I'm gonna say Andy Reed. No, no. He was always a solid player. So it's an era of change for the Patriots. They're probably going to need to get a rookie quarterback as well because their quarterback situation is a disaster. So it's always just fun to see, you know, a first year head coach and a first year quarterback seeing what they can do.
[00:56:20] This year actually is the first, I think it's the first time.
[00:56:24] So yesterday the Texans won and they've got a rookie head coach question that because I guess maybe this is a dumb question or not a dumb question, but like is a team only as good as their quarterback? You know, no, but the quarterback is for sure, you know, one of the most valuable positions
[00:57:40] in all of sports. If you have a great team, but and out. Like you know, sometimes it's that punter that's gonna get that field goal from half the court. That's the kicker. Cause those are different. Which one is more. Oh wait. The kicker is the one kicking it through the, the upright. The punch is the one that kicking it like down the field in the air. Well, I meant the kicker.
[00:59:00] The kicker.
[00:59:01] Oh yeah. Yeah. I think the kicker.
[00:59:02] Yeah.
[00:59:03] So, but wait.
[00:59:04] I was like, right.
[00:59:05] So wait.
[00:59:06] So could the different people. That's actually why Pat McAfee was kind of popular is he was a punter, but he had some clips where he would like lay people out. Oh, so it's always really exciting when the punter is usually like a smaller white guy, you know, when they get down there and they can like lay the boom a little bit. It's always get some people going. Oh, okay. Maybe I need to shift my focus to the punter and the kicker.
[01:00:22] Now, mind you, I do remember this one story that I anyone could technically catch the ball. Like, basically, the last man, the widest man out who's on the line of scrimmage. A wide receiver? Well, no, because, so this is like, gets it a little bit. So, so I don't know if you
[01:01:43] noticed, but sometimes the receivers will line up like a went up to the left in the video. He said something to the ref Usually the players don't do that unless they're reporting and Also a lot of times I heard going into a game the coach might go to the ref and say hey and they send Yeah, if we have an opportunity we might run this play where this player is gonna be eligible
[01:03:00] So make sure to catch he's gonna report to you
[01:03:03] And it's one of those things where this is a big trick play to win the game
[01:04:06] you actually forget to report like you actually walk over there and I'm like hey what's up ref. Good to see you. Watch this play. All right. All right. I'll go. I'll go. All right.
[01:04:15] Just want to say what's up. Like could you imagine if that's what really happened though.
[01:04:20] That would be crazy. Thing is you know that the refs mess it up. And I think this that that's this is the referee group
[01:05:42] that got, I think they told them, Hey, your you know, I don't know. I got sent this, you know, oh, actually. Hold on. Wait, let me show y'all. Because y'all know. Hey, are those the new? Are those new?
[01:07:00] OK, I didn't do an unboxing.
[01:07:03] But you know the ball shout out to Puma, shout out to La Melo. I appreciate my birthday. Not my birthday, but my Christmas gift. But yeah, you know, what Jersey are you reping? Is this the Jax? No, actually, so this, I found this at this old school. I found this at the thrift. It's Houston Rockets, Stephen Francis Jersey,
[01:08:22] being the style of a football Jersey, even though it's the basketball team.
[01:08:24] And it's two toes on the front.
[01:08:26] Wait, wait, feeling sporty. I don't know. Let's put me in coach, but put you in. But this reminds me, no, Jay. The next time I come to LA, I want to do a thrift store vlog with you.
[01:09:44] And then we'll tell you that. Oh, do you? I don't know if you can get the smoke. Jolynes he can get. I'm dead. All right.
