The Boys of Summer

Good evening everybody, and welcome to a late late edition of Fighter Up. Thank you for tuning into us so late night. We do apologize, but if you caught our Pundit's Pundits show earlier, you know why. And it was a rocket and a rolling in the chat room there, and if you missed it, I'm sorry, go check it out Selfwared Tribune YouTube channel. But we're going to start talking tonight because the boys of Summer are back. So I'll be honest with you. This is kind of a It's not my

favorite favorite sport, but it was the sport my dad loved. My dad, and I kind of dedicate a lot of it to him. And I think about go back and think reminisce about days when I was growing up. My dad actually was a school teacher. He was a high school math teacher. But so in his summers he had time to do things. So what did he do. He worked for over thirty years with the Milwaukee Brewers as

an usher, and so he loved baseball. And I can remember Easter Sunday us sitting in the backyard at my grandparents' house and we had it on the radio. If the Brewers were playing we were listening, and so it brings back a lot of good memories. And so I really this time of year is always something special for me. So it brings back some good memories. So look at the chatrooms already going. I love it, love it, love it. Thank you, Joshua. What's going on? William missed the

out on the last show, Good Night, folks. Will will was on the last show, Good Evening, Legendary night tune. Yes, yes, yes, So I'm going to start out with the boys of summer. My Brewers are doing one. The team that I cover down here that I take pictures for Miami Marlins. They are doing horrible. Oh eight. It's the worst start since a team made the playoffs last year till the worst start ever ever in the history of baseball if they made the playoffs the year before to

start oh to eight this year, they're missing a lot. They're missing a lot. I mean, they're missing obviously some star pitching. Obviously they have some key injuries in that area. But I don't think they've done enough. Sure and the talent that they need to go far. Go ahead, Jeremy, I can already see you're trying to speak. It's like they didn't surround areas with enough talent in front and behind him to protect him in the lineup.

He's trying to do it all on his own, and I think he's overthinking it at the plate because he's actually swinging at a lot of stuff he normally didn't. His plate disciplined, his lack He's looking this year like Bias did last year, and Bias has actually been putting up numbers this year. Who to funk it? Yeah, he's not having a good year at all. Go ahead, well and to make some matter what's worse? I think I just read that jury. Perez is going under Tommy John, which is

not fun. He's a great young pitcher and he's going through Tom and Jones. That's it's gonna be. Sandy just did that last offseason, So that means two down, and I know we're missing two other pictures. They've been hit bad by the bug they have. Yeah, Tommy John surgery, that's actually the UCL surgery when they talk about it in football, correct, it's the same surgery. They just call it by the ligament that's turk in the in football, right, Yes, yes, I would agree with that.

Tigers are doing pretty good there mister George. Yeah, they're five and on. They sput the doubleheader with the Mets today. They're playing pretty well considering the fact that a lot of their stars are just hitting for nothing right now, including Torko Sun. Riley Green finally had a home run today, but he's betting less than two hundred. Parker Meadows, the kid in the outfield, he's done nothing. Uh. The catcher, he hasn't done anything.

It's the bat out. Yeah, yeah, Justin Rogers is the I'm talking about. He's the starting catcher. But back up, you're right, Jeremy has done really well, Kelly, So, I don't know, the passion runs together and they're getting help them maybe a few places they didn't expect to, but I definitely need to get some of those bats going again. And all that being said, there's still five and one, crazy crazy stuff. Yeah, the really pitching has been great and the starting pitching. You're right,

Jeremy. So, I just read something that I don't know that I'm I know, I've never read it before, and it has to do with a baseball game. It has to do with the New York Yankees and the Marlins, because they actually Monday is Monday the eighth, the day of the solar eclipse. They actually have not postpone, but rescheduled the game because it was scheduled to be at two oh five, but because that's the time when the eclipse will be going on, they've moved the game to six o five

PM. I don't know that I've ever heard of a baseball game being delayed or pushed back due to a solar eclipse. And I completely understand why, because if you look at that band at the sixty percent eclips, so that's enough that it's gonna make the lights come on midday and that's gonna play with the shadows of the ball. And then when the eclipse passes and it goes to daylight and they showed up, they shut off, it totally changes it

again. And they talk about that at those dust games, you know, like the seven oh five starts during the during the summer, how the ball totally changes how it looks to a batter as the sunset and the lights come on. And that is the main thing I think they why they did it, and I think they're doing it almost across the league. All of them are going to be moving their starts either earlier or later to avoid the eclipse.

And I actually think it's a smart idea. I do too. I'm going to can tell you that they the first fifteen thousand fans to arrive will

receive a Yankees solar Eclipse T shirt to cover said. But again, here's one of the things that George you, I know, have talked about this extensively, is how teams, why they're giving games to teams that are up in the north where it could be snowing cold this time of year, why they're not putting them in dome stadiums or playing them in the sophomore Now, I get solarops is going to be for everybody, but you play in the

Marlins with the roof, you would the solar eclipse isn't really going to affect it. Yeah. Well, the thing is, it gets very complicated because some of the teams have what you call traditional opening opener. Those two that come to mind right away are Baltimore and Cincinnati. And I don't know if there's some unspoken agreement somewhere among the league owners, but they always are home for the first series always, and I like that because those two are cold

cities. You had the Angels on the road playing. Yeah, and they should have been home the first weekend of the year. But you had a warm city team, if you will, the La Angels playing on the road. But yeah, I think that I don't think it's ever going to happen, guys, I really do. I can squak about it, you can squawk about it, but I don'pe think the owners are ever going to change about it. Hey, if anybody's got a good opener, we all know

it's the Tigers. It's a city holiday, it's a civic holiday. And Jeremy, you can attest to this. It's a party, man. It's a party because you're downtown. Even if you even if you don't have a ticket to the game, it's still happening and it's a party. Yeah. They advertise it as a free tail gate. The only thing you got to pay for is the food you want to eat or the drinks you want to

drink the tailgates to enter. So as long as you can find parking somewhere and you can get downtown, you can have a very good time cheap for sure, for sure. But the Tigers. Getting back to my point, though, the Tigers are not one of those that's locked in because like this year, they send them on the road. They all opened up in Chicago, then they opened up in New York, I mean for their season opener, and now you got the the home first home game at Detroit tomorrow versus

the eight. Yeah. Those those stumbling, bumbling alk as. They may suck versus every other team in the league, but they show up versus the Tigers every year. I don't know what it is, but we can't get a winging record against that team. I don't know, and not since twenty twelve, right right, crazy, crazy crazy? Yeah. Well, let's face it. Last week when we were talking there were some college basketball games that were being played at that time. We now know who's in the final

four. It would be Purdue against number eleven seed North Carolina State, and we have Alabama versus number one seed Connecticut. So let's go around and everybody can give their predictions and talk a little bit about what they think about the games. We'll start with Will. So I'm looking at the matchup North colin

The States had amazing run. They beat Duke in the Conference hermin and then they proceed to win the conference tournament against their rival Chapel Hill and they make their way to this at the Final four against Purdue, which Purdue is on a revenge tour because Purdue lost it last year in the first game against Fairley Dickinson. So I'm looking towards a matchup between Edie and the other big guy

for NC State. I forgot what his name is. I always forget his last name, but that's gonna be It's gonna be a matchup of big men and it's gonna be fun to watch. So but my edge, I'm kind of biased because a Ontario fan, but I'm sorry n C fans, You've had a great run. I think produced just the better team. As for

Yukon Alabama, Yukon's having trouble getting to Arizona for the Final four. Their travel issues have been bad, like they've ran into some many issues, but their coach is like, traveling ain't gonna stop us from doing what we do. And Alabama beat my targets. But I just think Yukon, because they're the defending national champion and they proved it all your the best team that they'll

beat Alabama. So I'll say Yukon versus Produce. George Well, I was on a show, not tonight but last night, and they were asking Scott was asking the predictions and all that. Nobody could believe what was coming out of my mouth because I'm picking up and the reason is they have a very very good up and down the roster, very good team, and I know they've had some a few breakdowns defensively, and I know it's going to take

a perfect game to beat Yukon. I'm kind of pulling for them. I know that Nick Naben left them this year, so the athletic program has kind of been flat. But Boyle Boyd, the Crimson tidle Roland right now in men's hoops, So I'm going with the upset there for no other reason then I really don't want to see you Ukon win it two years in a row. But that's just my friend, So take it for what it's worth. But yeah, this is uh, this is this is new territory for Alabama

in men's hoops to be in the final four the other game. Uh, you know, Will's referring to Burns. I believe the big center J Burns. Yeah, yeah, what a hell of a run he's had anti State. This is going back many many years in the eighties since they've been in the final four. So but I'm still gonna go with Purdue because I'm I look at it this way like kind of what you hit on will. I

mean, they they they came so close last couple of years. They've had outstanding teams and outstanding player and a lot of them, as you said, you know, still play and walk this championship really bad. And trust me, I saw that happen in football with the Michigan Wolverines and how all the guys wanted to say most of them and come back to this past year and they did. Think there's a lot of people that are doing the same thing.

They just they just get get this championship. Let's cut down that net. And uh but they're gonna be both with Sandy. But my two are Alabama Purdue, and then of course I got Purdue winning it all. Okay, mister Jeremy, I'm gonna say what I said the last time we talked about the college thing, and that was at the field of thirty two. Yukon's winning the whole darn thing. There isn't a team in this thing that

is anywhere near the class that they have. Clinger took over Illinois. I mean the job they did defensively, holding a guy that would been averaging twenty four points a game to eight points. I I don't see how anybody's beating them. I don't care how much of a lull and how good Alabama's playing everybody else, they haven't faced the Yukon. Yukhn has got guys on the bench scoring in the double digits, but when Klinger's putting up thirty eight,

you don't really need the bench either. I agree, I agree, So I will say you all, by the way, I forgot to mention, but uh, it's gonna be Yukon versus NC Steak because I hate her, don't. So I'm gonna disagree with you, Jeremy. But that's okay because I'm a Big ten fan. And sometimes when you're a Big ten fan, if your team isn't in it from the Big Ten, you're gonna stick with the Big ten team. And I think, like Will said, Purdue's got a chip on their show from last year. They want an He's he's on

a mission, he wants it, so I think he is. Ironically, I think they're gonna beat NC State now Yukon. I think is gonna take it all anyways. So but I find it kind of interesting that on the boys side, NC State is playing a team and Yukon is playing a different team. And the same with the women is that the Yukon are also in it playing against Iowa and North Carolina State for the women are playing South Carolina. So the two schools have both the women's and men's program playing in it,

which I think is really that's really great. I mean, it's great for those schools, great for those programs. Let's now switch to the women's program women's side. North Carolina State's a three seed, they're playing South Carolina, who is a one seed. And then we have number three Connecticut going against number one Iowa. Any predictions because I know, like we don't normally talk a lot about women's basketball, but I'm going to start this time instead

of with Will, I'm gonna start it with George. Oh. Well, uh, you know, I think most of the United States would like to see young Caitlin in her senior year or last college appearance. Probably that's uh it all for Iowa. The Hawkeyes women Hawkeyes have had a fabulous year, as we all know. I think again, You're talking about a great program with Yukon, and I don't know, that's going to be a tough game.

I'm gonna have to go with Yukon on this one. I just think the magic might run out this this this game for Caitlin and then the other game. I'm going to go with South Carolina. I think they got a little bit more balanced attack, and they're a good program, very good program. They've got a fantastic hear those ladies and you know overall, then I guess I'm gonna go with Yukon because I didn't pick them in the Mountains.

I got to pick them in the ladies section. The women's finals and hands talk to Cleveland, Ohio, by the way, for hosting this this weekend. Yeah, because you know, unlike the men, the ladies can't get a big stadium to play in. This is true. They are always in a regular I call arena. You guys know this. I'm sure they're not in a big stadium like NCAA men, you have to have a size of Ford Field or the super Dome or Phoenix's new Stadium or the Irving you know,

the Cowboys home. But the women have some. But hey, their ratings are so good they might they may review that power and maybe someday try to have the women's Final Four in a football stadium. I just throw that in there. I'm gonna go with Yukon to win it all Candy and the women's Okay, well what do you think? So before this show, I'm on a basketball show that talks basketball. Shout out to Meg Priceless tip Off, where we preview men's and women's basketball pros and college I was born in

Connecticut. This Iowa Yukon game is a great game. You got Page Beckers, my girl, on one side against Caitlyn Clark, who's probably the most dominant women's college basketball player right now and one of the greatest players of all time in women's basketball history and college basketball drops triple doubles and stuff. And I like Caitlyn too, don't gimme me wrong. I got Yukon because they got more weapons on their team. I do think Caitlyn will have a good,

good game. But I think even though this sounds biased because I'm from Connecticut, I got Yukon winning that game because they just have more depth on the other side. South Carolina. South Carolina Don Staley is building what Yukon had many years ago, a dynasty of winning multiple championships in a row. She did it last year, she was on the Actually she didn't win it last year. I'm sorry she wanted two years ago. Last year, elis

do you won it? But she's created a program like a Yukon, a dominant powerhouse, and she she knows how to coach the team in the final. I got South Klina against Connecticut. Yes, I think Don Staley's a great coach and she and o Oriama is a great coach, and it's gonna be They're gonna be butting heads and it's gonna be a close game through and through. But I'm hoping if this isn't the year, I hope you can. I want I have Yukon winning it. But if they don't it this

year, I guarantee next year hopefully. Okay, Jeremy, I got Iowa versus South Carolina. I just Caitlin cark Park with how she lost to LSU last year and got to put it to him this year when that girl fall fouled out and she got all crying and deligerent about it. So I got I got it going Iowa versus South Carolina. South Carolina is just too full of a team. On the other side, I got Iowa going there, and I think South Carolina wins it all. You know, Jeremy, for

one time, I completely agree with you. South Carolina is on a ride. They haven't lost the game yet this year. Now, did they call the women's basketball team the game Hends instead of the Game Cocks? No, unfortunately, not they should. I'm just saying it just doesn't sound right because I think the women tend to hear called the lady volunteers. Yes, most most colleges do that. That's right. Well, like we have in Detroit the Titans, and they're called the Lady Titans. Mm hmmm at all,

Jeremy, Sorry, they should have. I think these will both be very good games. Now, I will say that I think this will probably be one of the best drafts for women's basketball then we've had in quite some time. I think there's a lot of players coming out of the draft and going into the draft. And now remember the women play, They play Friday and Sunday and then their draft is already on Monday, I believe. So it's real quick. It's boom boom, boom. But I think Caroline is going

to take it all. I do have Iowa beating Connecticut. I think Kim Malarkey said it best that you and I realize Caitlin Clark is only one player, but Iowa does have other weapons. It's not just Caitlin Clark. But I think it's she's just too hard to defend. And I will say this, and Caitlin said this herself, that she'll know when the beginning, like when she gets out there on the floor, if the threes are flowing, she's hard to stop. And let's face it, that's pretty much about anybody.

If you're hitting, if you're on, you know it's your night. You know you can't miss. It's kind of like a picture in baseball. If you know you're on, you're throwing those strikes and you're on, but you also know if you're not on, you're off. So but I think Clark's gonna bring it because I think she she wants it, and she was disappointed last year. I think she's gonna get it this year. Who kudos to her because she got two years in a row. Player of the Year,

So good for her, good for her. Choose awesome, Yes, Jeremy, you want to cover a little bit of football news, sure, because this on done. Kean's Inn said Lions brought in kool aid for a top thirty visit, and that's great, and it's doing their due diligence because no one knows who's falling at twenty nine. No one knows if Brad Holmes

plans to trade up, trade back, or whatever. So getting as many of those four or five guys that might be there at twenty nine in for a visit is probably a good idea because I don't think we have the AMMO to trade up without busting future prospect or future draft picks. So I don't

know if we trade up plus right now. Cam Sutton's contract has not been voided by the NFL, and with him being released on an OYR on a misdemeanor charge rather than the originally felony charge that was listed, it may get held against the Lions, and that means it could cost us dead cap, which is why they kind of went stagnant and free agency and stopped adding a

bunch of people. It's kind of why we matched the offer for brock Right, which actually was only one point zero one five more than what he would have made. Anyways, it was kind of a no brainer to keep him on the roster because he's our blast, best blocking tight end and our tight end two on the roster. So to bring him back at four million a year over three years when Everett just got signed to Chicago for six million as there two, it's a it's kind of good value. Let's see what else,

And we brought back Kendall Vildor to be the CB five. It's depth peace, he'll be making the league minimum posision. How about kicking a sixty four yard feed field goal? Wait, it's not that he did it once,

though everybody misses this point. There was a timeout called just before the snap was done, and the holder was lined up three yards further back than he needed to be, and the kid had a sixty seven yarder with enough clearance that he could have hit it from seventy We're talking about a kid that

hadn't made a field goal kick since high school. All he had done is kickoffs as coming off the practice squad in the NFL, and for his first two kicks to be sixty seven and sixty four yards respectively and hit both of them, Kudos to Jack Bates, who was actually brought in for a visit to talk about after the season's done for the UFL, because they can visit them, they can talk with them, they can't offer a contract, they can't contact the agent or any of that stuff. So after the season's done,

you're allowed to interview them and that's it. So kudos to the Lions to bring them in right away, because Michigan Panthers is actually this region's UFL farm. Is how it works. The one that's over there near Philly is for all those teams over there, there's one in New York, there's one down in Houston. I believe there's one down. Isn't there one in Orlando or near Florida or Alabama? Yep? And then they got the West coast ones, So that's how it works. Those are the regional where those teams

get to pick out of that pool of players on that team first. And that the second time he kicked that sixty four yard it actually hit the net, so they're saying it could it would have been good for five or six yards even further back right another justin Tucker's leg for somebody that hadn't kicked into high school in twenty nineteen. If you are going through any kind of NFL withdrawal, go watch the UFL. Watch it and you'll also be able to

see what the kick return will look like. That's the exact rules we're using. Correct, correct, exactly. Okay, guys, I think it's time for my town because you guys all know I like that segment. So the segment of my town means you get to choose a topic for either the town that you live in or the town you grew up with. Let's start with smoking Jeremy b how about that last year it took eleven games for Bias to get his seventh hit, and through six games he has four. It's amazing.

It's like this bat learned how to find the ball and the pitch that he did to dry Riley Greenholme for the only run in the game two today. It was actually off the plate away and because he was leaned in with that crouch that he does and held through the strike zone with the level bat, he poked it right over the second basement into right now center and driving in Riley Green from third after the errant throw when he was stealing second base, so he got a stolen base and an extra base off of it off

of a single and the amazing it's just been an amazing run. Trek Scruball looks as good as he was, and Casey Mayes was electric earlier. I mean, his stuff was good. I love to watch. I mean he's actually added velocity since his surgery, and he actually rehabbed and gained the weight and got better mechanics. He's actually gained a two miles per hour on every pitch except his curveball. Wow. If he can get that, he wants to get that two miles an hour on his curveball because it'll be more effective

because of the pitch rate and the spin rate. At that miles per hour, it's supposed to add anywhere from four to six inches more of movement. Okay, mister will so in my Charlotte, North Carolina, as we know, we have heard that Hornets coach Stevefford is going to be stepping down at the end of the season and we'll move over to the front office with the team. My thoughts is it's the second stint with the team. I was never a big fan of him. He was mainly the defensive coach both times

with US and he's going to the front office. Yes, I'm excited to get a new coach, but I don't personally I like our new front office. That's a young face. I think the guy's like thirty five something years old. But honestly, I'm not excited about that. I was never really a big fan of mister Clifford at all. Don't get me wrong, you're an NBA coach, You're on the highest level of coaching. Basketball. Just never is a huge fan of him. And as we previewed earlier in the

standum North Carolina. But we got two teams in the final four, NC State women who were playing South Conta and NC State men who are playing against Purdue. So the state of North Carolina is happy. So that's what's going on in my neck of the woods. Okay, mister George, Well, Jeremy took my Tigers thunder. He took my Detroit one thunder. So jed, Hey, all I got left is the Detroit Red Wings. But you know that's not a bad story at all. But but listen to this.

There are counta, one, two, three, four teams within two points of each other for the final Eastern Conference Wildcard birth right now, you got the Islanders with eighty three, you get the Capitals with eighty two, the Red Wings with eighty two, and the high flying they've won three in a row, Pittsburgh Penguins with eighty one. And despite what Ralph says about his

Penguins, they are fast and furiously trying to make the playoffs. But getting back to the Red Wings, very important when the other day on the road of playing the Tampa Bay Lightning and defeating them, Tampa Bay of course owns

the first wild card spot. Yeah, with ninety three points, but right now the prognosticators are given Detroit just I think it's around a fort chance of making the playoffs, and they're basing that on the fact that a lot of it on the fact that the Red Wings have a really, really tough schedule. They've got the eighty two points, they're on pace for ninety points,

but even ninety may not be enough. So for example, this Friday tomorrow you got the Tigers opening up, and then across the street you have the Red Wings hosting the New York Rangers. Very very important. Every game is important, every play is important, every shift, as they say, is important. So the Red Wings sitting there with a forty seven percent chance to make it. I still like their chances of making it. The problem is is there's a lot of other teams too that are in the in the contention

for the last, like I said, Eastern Conference playoff spot. But it's been a really good year. The Red Wings have done very well. Steve Eiseman made some great trade acquisitions and free agent signings, and they've really really improved their offense this year. Goaltending is still a little bit, you know, suspect, but you know they're trying to get by with the best they

can in that position. So that's about it on me the Red Wings, and this is a great point of discussion because it hasn't happened in many many years. Were still talking about making the playoffs and here it's already April. It's a good will. A lot of that has to do with how they played in March. George, I don't know if you realize this, but the Pistons won more game in March than the Red Wings did. No, I didn't know that. Yeah, they went three and eleven and the the

Pistons went four and twelve. That's disgusting to be where they were. They had the second wild card locked up to lose that many games. But the reason why they're only at forty seven percent is because Pittsburgh and the Capitols have two more games to play after the Red Wings are done, So even if they all end up tied at the end, all the other people do is have to have one tie. Yeah, and get that one. Yeah. That's a good point that that's why it's forty seven percent. Otherwise it'd be

fifty percent. Yeah, Okay, Well on mine and mine is kudos to the Milwaukee Brewers. And the reason why I'm sayings to Milwaukee Brewers is because you allowed your famous famous announcer to call opening game. Bob Buker was back at American Family Field once again to broadcast the Milwaukee Brewers home opener. He

is ninety years old. This will be Yuker's fifty fourth season broadcasting Brewers baseball, though he has already limited himself to home games for the last several years, Yuke is very focused on always being at a Hall of Fame level. Brewers principal owner Mark Ontonaisio said before the Tuesday's game he doesn't just want to be in the booth to be in the booth. He's very mindful, he said. Mark says to him, you don't have to do play by play

for all nine innings or seven and the nine you can do less. Bob Youuger grumbles at that idea. You can flip rolls you and then do color. He didn't want to talk about that, and so it goes starts Bob Youuker behind the microphone. Uker became the voice of the Brewers back in nineteen seventy one and has been part of their broadcast team ever since. He regularly makes appearances on the field and in the locker room, conversing with the players

and coaches. He celebrated when they won the NL Central title. He used to play baseball. He played in the majors from sixty two to sixty seven. He played with the Milwaukee Atlanta Braves, the Saint Louis Cardinals, and the Philadelphia Phillies. He worked as a national color commentator for ABC and NBC baseball telecast and earned fame beyond that of a usual broadcaster because obviously he's made late night talk shows, beer commercials. He did the movie Major League.

He also starred in Mister Belvedere, an ABC sitcom that aired over one hundred episodes. He is mister Brewers, mister Milwaukee. Kudos to him. He is a Hall of Famer broadcaster already. I hope he goes because when you grow up with one broadcaster that you grow up and you love, you want to hear him forever. Let's face it, there famous ones all over. Every team has had them. Tigers had Ernie Harwell that everybody knows that Vince Scully called how many games some of the big name, big name ones.

So kudos that he is still at ninety feels good enough that he can call games. Let him call games he wants. Yeah, he's a great guy,

a great announcer. It's funny when you mentioned about that ABC, because I remember they used him as a Monday night baseball on ABC many years ago before ESPN started doing Sunday nights and Uker was in Detroit, I believe for several games involving Mark the Berg fitterant who, as you guys know, in seventy six, turn the baseball world upside down with his antics and winning nineteen games. But yeah, Uker, I remember him coming into town here to

do not only the Brewers, but the Monday night baseball games. He doesn't even have a contract. He just does it. Wow, you know what I love. Don't get me wrong. My favorite memory of him is always going to be from the Major League franchise when he was on there and he was playing a lush that hated watching the Indians lose all the time, and he gets to the end of the show he goes, don't forget to come

out tomorrow night for uh what was it old timer's night? Anybody was alive the last time the Indians won a World Series, they get in for free. But the only thing I want to add though, that we I feel remissed. We had a bench player outscore every player offensively for the season in one game and a loss for the Pistons. Malachi Flyinn scored fifty points versus the Atlanta Hawks and we lose by eight. When your bench player outscores the

entire other team's bench, you should not lose. Kudos to him. But it's the eighth most by any Detroit player in history. It's also the most by any bench player in the NBA's history. Yeah, I should say so. Well, okay, then that said on sixteen lions or this year Pistons

more disappointing. If you look at what they were projected at the start of the season, you would have to say the Pistons are the most disappointing because they were supposed to be a borderline playoff team and they're scraping the bottom of the barrel for a second year in a row. Let's hope that the draft lottery don't screw him out of whoever it is. I think it's that Aaron Sar out of France that's the big number one pick this year. Hopefully we

don't get screwed out of him this year. Okay, well, let's call this a night. Let's wrap this show up. Well, how can everybody find you or get hold of you?
