Greatest Hotties with Rae Sanni

I mean, there's almost too much to say. An Emmy nominated writer has written on a Black Lady sketch show, The Good Place, The President Show. She's also the owner of probably the most important Twitter in my life. UM, please welcome Ray Sanni. Hi. I mean it's because the thing is, it's true. I'm I'm not Emmy nominated a Black Lady. Okay, that show doesn't exist without you. I truly hate when that ship happened. Like everyone who works on a show that gets nominated, I'm like, do you

get an emy? Do you get an Emy? And they're like, no, we don't get one. Yeah, just the producers and stuff get Emmy. But I'm happy that it happened they got nominated. I'm very proud of that, but I'm more excited to be here with you guys or whatever. I was in here being like, when are these motherfuckers? Don't ask me. Everybody else you were at the top of our wishless but there's just been so much going on, and I

didn't want to burden you. Um, but no, I'm serious, Like we would throw your name around and I was like, I don't risk busy. You know she's she's emy nominated. I just couldn't. I couldn't ignore all of your basketball tweets in the last few months. I'm like liking all them because yeah, I mean because Megan and I will say something and then you'll end up tweeting it and it's like, oh, all in the same level of sports opinions right here. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. You can

make me laugh all the time too, especially with your Lakers. UM. I was also going to say this could unofficially be the first meeting of the j R. Smith Fan Club. I was thinking about. I was thinking about the executive branch of it. I think Ray as president, I think CJ is vice president, and I'm treasurer. UM like if we ever need to collect money to go visit j R. I'm happy to be doing that. And as c J and I've recently found out I have very good credit,

so I'm happy to be the treasurer. But I knew that from looking at you when I first met you that you had good Do you act like that's a surprise. I think I'm the one that's a toss up. Um. Yeah, we've learned, not the credit, um. But really, I I don't know. If I know three people, I think Aaron Lennox. She could potentially be the secretary of the fan club. But like the three of us, we really ride hard. How much fun has it been for you to see j R back with Lebron but not really in a

playing capacity. So he's the best cheerleader that was Ron has ever had. Okay, Leron is playing with his best teammate in a D and I love it. I don't need JR to do anything bestball, I related, that's not why we love him exactly, So I'm good with that. I'm very happy to see him. To be honest, I think he's beautiful. I love forever him is like funny to people. But I also do think he's very, very fine, and if he wanted to cause trouble in my life,

I would accept the trouble. They were showing the Lakers after the Thursday night victory. Walking back to the tunnel, j R. Already had his shirt off and have not had not played one second, sure off, everyone else still fully closed in their vote shirts. And I'm like God, But the thing is, that's what I did. Want to see him shirtless celebrating a game he didn't play it. That's peak beautiful Jr. Yes, he's amazing, like truly the

reason I fell in love with him. This sounds insane, but this season, like where the NBA had the lockout for like the first half of the season or whatever. He was playing in China and I just saw some news report. I saw some news report that said JR. Smith's girlfriend and sister beat up Chinese fans. I need to know. I need to know his family, and it's true. Like him, his girlfriend, he's not with that woman anymore because as you guys know, he's a little sloppy in

that department. But he um his like his girlfriend was just like tattooed up, like sub doubt girl, and her and his sister were like beating up Chinese fans who such a j R. That's the presence you're getting with j R. I mean, like I was gonna bring up to during during the protest, like I don't even know if he was out here because he was trying out for the for the Lakers or what, but like during the protest, he he beat up this little white kid who was just out and and and and he he

straight up went he went right to his like I g stories, which is like, you know, Jr's preferred choice of platform, I think, but he was like, Hey, I just want to let you guys know I beat up this kid because he messed with my car and had nothing to do with what's going on. And then I

was like, this is perfect. And then the video came out, and the video that is I don't know if you've seen it right, but like the video is so great because it's him beating up the kid and everyone in the crowd is like hey to everyone feel me, like hey, can you just respect his privacy and just letting it happen,

which is perfect. Yes, I saw that video because whatever anything j R. Smith related happens, A bunch of people text me um, and so they were like they were like, uh, did you see the man beating up this little white boy like he's doing too much? And I was like, no, that boy deserved to My thing is my thing is I understand, you know, eat the rich, all of that, all of that, but you can't. You can't come for first generation rich people. Ship go with everybody else who

has generational wealth. G dude who untied shoelaces and like bought his way into the NBA. Like, let him have his car go funk up like Mark Cuban's car. Yes, exactly. There is a like Matt purple g wagon I see all over l A and it's like, I don't know who that belongs to, but it's clearly a Laker's player. Don't funk with that car like it may be like a green Camaro. Leave it alone. If you see thirty inch like diamond studded rims, don't go after that car.

If you see a fall break the windshield. Yeah, if you see him back with a red interior alone, you know, Wow, you know what this is? This is knowledgeable. Um. Okay, So Ray, you are from New York, you are a self proclaimed Knicks fan. Yeah, I think you're You're one of few Knicks fans I get to interact with. I know one other one I talked to. They're embarrassed, they're embarress to come up. So, like, what do you hope happens? Well, I hope James Dolan died, right, I hope happen. Um.

So I just read a headline. I didn't go deeply into it, but I just saw a headline that was like, oh, um, in response to like all the like social justice stuff that the players are doing. The uh, the owners have contributed like more to the Republican Party than they ever have, and like the top five were like Orlando's owner and I can't remember the other four, but absolutely one thousand percent it was James ban I'm not surprised by that

at all. Like, and for some reason, rich New Yorkers who aren't like old money in high society are super into Trump and I don't get it. But James Owan has loved a sexual assaulter and he tried to make Isaiah Thomas the coach of the Liberty and I are you doing? It's almost like, yeah, he's one of those people out there who thinks of the worst thing you can do and totally does it. You know, like every time,

it's like it's cartoonish the decisions that he made. Yeah, the parallels to Trump too, it's just like very similar. You're very similar, like a dude and a white dude in power who again, things will come out that it's like you gotta be done, like anyone else in society who has this track record's got to be like dethroned but just gets to retain all of it's insane based on money. I mean it's like a, yeah, he is

a cartoon villain, that is correct, sea. I mean with the Oakley stuff, it's like wow, just to to also be so out of touch and yeah, and like the thing is we know him. It's kind of this Jerry Jones as thing of like when you were an owner doing front face saying videos like We're gonna come for you if you if you funk up, and the Nicks

have fucked up. I mean it's like at least now the Browns are trying to be good and like try and make good choices, and the Knicks almost seemed like they make bad decisions on purpose, and I know that that's not what they're doing, but that's how it feels. Well. The problem is that one so on my like limited sample size because I can only think of like two examples.

But I think second generation owners of a team are always bad if you didn't have to buy the team with your own money, and you weren't like part of you know, acquiring the team and seeing vacula goes into such trade actions and whatever whatever. I don't think that you can really do a good job. It's like Al Davison kids and James Dolan sucks, and I just feel like there's the problem with Dolan is that the Knicks are always profitable no matter how poorly they performed, And

I don't think he seems like a basketball lover. He doesn't seem like a guy who's like into the game. So it's like, as long as he keeps the Knicks decent enough to like sell tickets to Medicine Square Garden, which is the truth, like you'll always find people courtside of the next game no matter how bad the season is going. I don't think he's like at risk of losing money enough to want to make the team better. However, like with the Browns, it's like who the funk wants

to be in Cleveland. You gotta make this work, dude. Yeah, I mean yeah, I mean he really is like the woman in Major League, but he has New York, Like, yeah, New York is so fucking cool and there are people that want to go there. I mean k D and Kyrie going to New York, but going to Brooklyn is like a great fuck you to him. I think, do you know how angry I was? I was. I totally get it, but I'm so mad at y'all. I'm so mad. I was sitting there. I was like, yeah, k D

comes to the Knicks like whatever, you know. I was ready to like find new jerseys all that, and uh, yeah, you know, I don't. I don't know. I like, I get it, I get it. I get it, you know. And I would root for Brooklyn if they had been there for longer. But I was like born into a Nick fandom, and it just feels weird to like shift to the neck for even though I'm from Brooklyn. It's

just like I can't do that. I have too many memories attached to the Knicks, you know, Like my mother and fathers are making fun of me when the Rockets came back and beat them because my parents are Nigerian and my parents are Nigerian Muslim, so I came alagical

like everything to them. And like so my brother and I like I think I might have been like six and my brother would have been like eight, and we were like super hardcore rooting for them, and we were singing that song go You'll go, New who you All Go. And then like in in the final game, my dad was all in my face and I'm like this has to be child abuse and that, and then like I remember, like when I was like ten or eleven, why didn't

the Knicks only duel in lockout seasons anyway? Um, when I was like ten or eleven, like the Knicks went to the finals and I would just like right, Marcus camping all over my arm. I thought he was so cute because I caught like an n C double a game of his, like at amherst One, like when he was you mask was it AMers it was? And then he and then he like uh he, I just saw him. I thought he was so long and handsome, and so when he was on the Knicks, I was like so happy.

It was like three wells he said or whatever, and It's like the Nets never gave me any memories while they were New Jersey, and I don't know, I look at them as like gentrifiers. Yeah, I mean like the next situation too, it's like, yeah, you guys are always later you weren't. It's like a Clippers Lakers situation over here, like if you were. It's it's the team that you sort of connected with when you were born and has

a little bit more history. Like yeah, exactly, But c J, you are loyal, right in the same way that I am loyal, and c J is not loyal. I'm loyal to Lebron CJS loyal to the best player, and so he always gets to root for whatever team the best players on And you're like, okay, well that's not really fair. But yeah, I like individual very much. My brothers, that's very much my brother Yes, And the NBA and the

NBA sort of encourages that. Like what I do like about the NBA and why I can't really get into the NFL aside from all the other largest society of stuff is that like the NFL wants these particularly black players to diminish themselves. And there's nothing that I like more than an arrogant black man. That is why I've never been in a happy relationship. But um, like I

really really really really really love that. Like the NBA is just like five different businesses on the floor like for every team each time, and it's like, Okay, I know this person's face. They make this many dollars, they can do this much stuff with their sponsorship, and they aren't like I mean, obviously, if you're on a team with Lebron, you're gonna get eclipsed by him. But it's not like with Aaron Rodgers getting all the attention and all these anonymous packers on the field. And I like

that fan engagement. It's like really really great and I like seeing when players are funny. Yeah, I mean, if anything, I was gonna say, like Kauai feels more like an NFL player because he just loves the game and doesn't want to be in you know, doesn't really want to be like a spokesperson. I love his is it a New Balance commercial? He does not speak in it. He's holding a microphone and but he doesn't speak. Perfect. This is if people went to them and we're like, he'll

do the commercial. He will not speak and he will not smile and they were like, we'll figure it out, We'll figure it out. But I'm like, he has to have fun, right, because there was footage of him in a strip club and even shy people like pussy, you know, I wouldn't seem yeah. I think yeah, yeah, and he's hot and he be asked to like shoulder at that point. Yes, yes, Um,

this is a perfect segue into our topic. So we we were originally going to do Greatest Choke Jobs, which was recommended to us by a fan, Hi Kelly, in a listener, and then when I said Ray was in, CJ was like, no one talks about hot people or crushes better than Ray. We have to have her do that. And so today's topic is greatest Hotties is what I'm calling it. And on my part, it took zero research.

C J. Did you have to do? I just didn't want to miss anyone, because this is genuinely when I first moved to l A and I would go to these parties with you know, awful people that I don't know, but like, for some reason, this was like my party trigger party conversation where I'd be like, who's like the

hottest NBA player? Straight guys and no. I mean it was like if I could talk to a bunch of straight lame comedy writers and have them admit, who are hot NBA players and weren't afraid of like have that conversations like all right, you're not that much of a loser, Like you know, you're not afraid to not your masculine, so you want to rust that. I guess you're cool. This is like I've had players in the back of my head, so I'm gonna I mean, it's gonna be a mix of guys and girls. Did you have to

do any research? Of course not. No, I've been like floating around the house all morning just thinking about it. I already told the c J I have lots of honorable mentions. Yes, yes, and also also guys are hot for different reasons. Yes, I have to take into account as well. Okay, so let's take a quick break and then we'll be back with our perspects. We are back, Ray, as our guest. You lead us off with your number

three picks, so we go in. Is that descending? Descending? Yeah, so you're oh wait, I didn't ask for clarification, don't sorry. They have to be current. They absolutely not no, okay, so um, my number three is the only current world. Actually there's he's one of two, but there's Jerk or whatever. My number three is Russell. Yeah, I mean yes, give us your give us your reasoning. First of all, I

just really like Russell Westbrook bones. He looks after him to me, my parents are Nigerian, he looks like he's one of ours. Um and um. I love a surly movasaka, I really do. And he just he doesn't have time for ship. He's really funny, but doesn't have time for ship. He's so strong, and he's like he looks like such a man. You know, he's like moving back, pushing the ball hard, and I'm like he would handle me. So he when mean and funny, and then when he smiles.

I mean, it's like when when Russ is having fun, you cannot Like. There was a clip of him dancing the other day and I was then I started dancing like subconsciously, just like was vibing with him. He won some award when one of the sps I was at, and so then he comes backstage and we the writers, we stand backstage and I made eye contact with him and I said congratulations and he smiled at me, put his hand on his chest and said thank you so much. And I was like in a puddle, like I was

like I've died. I've died. And his shirt was unbuttoned to his belly button. He had like layered chains on. He just looked so cool, so hot, and is even though he is kind of like ah, like a fun psycho, he's like a good person and he seems like a great dad. I love his kids. I just I love how he dresses. Yes, and this is important to me,

Like there's a whole thing about how or whatever. But in the Kardashian era, it has gotten to be that a lot of black celebrities, blackmail celebrities pursue women who looks like them or don't talk to or engaged with black women. The NBA is better at it than a lot of other leagues. You know, the black men in the NBA usually date black women, but in an arrow where it's become more cool to data Kardashian or a

quote unquote exotic woman. The fact that Russell Westbrook is with a dark skinned black woman and has been with her has not less they they have beautiful kids, like it needs a lot to me, and he's funny when he seems to be funny. That smile is incredible. I love that he's obsessed with Taylor Swift. That is funny. Like now he Yeah, he is probably the most influential like fashion too, like he he he gave reason for like the tunnel walk, like TNT starts coverage at players

walking into the arena because of Russell Westbrook. I know, like some other players have dabbled, you know, in other leagues too, but like, yeah exactly, but like Russ was making statements with his fashion and yeah, exactly the doors. Yeah, that's a great first pickre wonderful. C do you want me to go next? Okay, so my number three. I'm disappointed in myself. I thought I was going to have no white men on my list, but I just cannot

deny how strikingly handsome Jimmy Garoppolo is he. And like it. I almost think I like him as like a fuck you to Tom Brady, because I do think Tom Brady is like classically hot, looks like he could be a model, but he's a nemesis of mine. And so Jimmy, Jimmy g was like his understudy, you know, and then and then got to like shine. I was doing a podcast recently. Dian Ortiz is very funny comedian out of Chicago, and hers is all about crushes, and she was like, I

don't really like Tom Brady. And I was like, do you know who Jimmy Garoppolo is? And she said no, And I showed her a picture and she was like, that is the hottest man I've ever seen in my life. Like he he looks like an Abercrombie model, smile, like he could be a movie star, he could be an action hero. The fact that he is also a quarterback that took a team to a super Bowl makes him hot. But when he said babe to Aaron Andrews, I was like, I know that we should not be encouraging this behavior.

Men should not be talking to sideline reporters like this. But if he called me babe, I don't I don't know, c J, I may throw it all away. He definitely, because the white quarterback is like so corny to me. But he yeah, he is somewhat of an exception for me. He does look but he's a little bit too like he looks manufactured to me. Well, and he's from the Chicago suburbs. So he also has that like vibe of like a drunk bro that could be in Wrigley Bill,

Like he could have heckled me out a show. And I think me imagining him bullying me and not being into me makes me more into him. Oh, I know, I know, we're absolutely sick. I hope, I hope our fans are still listening at this point, Like, oh, no, I think this is gonna be our highest reviewed episode. I'll try to tie in some performance. So that's my no. I said, he let a teacher. He got injured last week. I'm hoping he's better. I like he's someone I hate

seeing injured because he's had bad ones. But yeah, how does he dress? I have no idea. I'm sure in Patagonia is like I'm sure it's not good, but I really only ever want to see him in pads. Like if he were to like walk into a dinner, I'm sure he would. Yeah, he's from the western suburbs of Chicago, but he wears like black button downs with like Paisley collars and ships. Um I would, I would. I would

resent him if I saw him in real life. There are people that are like objectively handsome and like have a good life. You're sure just by looking and I would be resentful acknowledge that he's beautiful and then the the out of him A good choice. He's very, very very beautiful man. And he liked porn stars, which I'm glad for. I love that he was just like, I'm not going to give a ship what anybody says. I'm gonna take this, this beautiful porn star on a day.

Y'all have a problem with it here. I love that you have to imagine playing in San Francisco. Really just let you be like, who gives a fuck? Like you can do whatever you want. Um, okay, your number three al right, So my number three is the pick that I was talking like this. I found this. I thought of this when I used to have those conversations back

in the day, and it stayed in my head. Um because it's between like I feel like when people talk about handsome or hot NBA players, Rick Fox always comes up like and I was like, I was like, okay, whatever, um, But for me it was Jim Jackson. Do you guys know Jim Jackson. That's the one that is that the one who sold Tony Braxton from Maybe I I need to look that up. But yeah, that's so funny because I would have been so mad at myself if I

didn't mention that Layry so he stole Tony Braxon. Yes, so so first of all, I don't even know what Tony Brack was doing. The team hotel to pick up Jason Kidd for a date, if the story, but she ends up leaving with Jim Jackson. I mean side by side. He's hotter. Jason Kidd is not to me, um and he he was for like five minutes on the net. It's really hot for like his first two seasons on nets. But he's got a weird look to him. Jim Jackson, c J. You're so right. He's so handsome. He's six

sex from Toledo, Ohio. Just like a rock yeah, like back then, like just like solid NBA players because it was like the age of you know, like obviously like and it was like all finesse lean but like a big, solid NBA players, Like man, I want to look like that. And I love that you said. I love what you said that he got traded after the Jason Kidd thing, because he was traded. He played for twelve NBA teams.

I remember him being like a journeyman, and I'm wondering it's like, was he just a threat to every every teammate's wife or girlfriend. Yes, he was, like he's killing everybody's girl. Yeah, he's too hot, you can't. I mean that's yeah, that's like such a funny phenomenon to be like, you gotta trade to me, too hot. My wife loves him. Jim Jackson hard to to get off my list. He's

running strongly eight years. I saw Rick Fox in person, probably like three years ago, and he still looked really like he actually looked hotter than I remember him being. And maybe that's the in person he's better with the salt and pepper hair. Yes, who I love like a distinguished gentleman, and he looks like one. But Chris Rick

stresses me out because he's like too pretty. I would never be confident that my man wasn't cheating on me if he looks like Rick back, because when you saw Vanessa Williams like back in the day, and you're like, that is the prettiest woman alive, and then you see him and you're like, oh, yeah, that's who deserves her. Yeah, But didn't give her. I think I think he cheated on her, like pretty badly. Yeah, Rick, I mean now Rick is boys with Kanye like really doubling down on

it right. Well, when I saw him, he was in a casino and he had two very ugly short white men with him, and I was like, what a good move just surround yourself control. Isn't he dating like one of the spy women from TV? Like maybe a lie should or something? Oh wow, Oh, I think I've seen the lies of douche, like the what is it Perez Hilton pictures of them to hanging out. Well, I always told I always told c J. If him and I hadn't started dating, I feel like I would have wound

up with or sell Us Wiley. No, no, thank god you didn't. He's like a weirdo, self paid and black dude. Yeah, he's like. Uh. There was like a tweet the other day. I was like, look at this guy dancing for white dollars. No, he's something he said, Oh, I don't believe in white privilege because white privilege means that my black skin is a standard. I was like, that's not with that, you're playing that he's taking over the Jason Whitlock. Yeah, he's

gone to the Terry Cruise. Kom oh my gosh. Okay, well, I'm glad that I wound up with c J. Then all right, let's take a book break, should we do? We let's just go into our number two. We're gonna go to our number two. Okay, Ray, you ready with your number two? Yeah? I had to reshuffle because I didn't realize that we were doing different sports. But now that you've introduced the NFL, I would like to go with Travis Kells. Wow. Wow that I mean he is hot. He is hot. Megan and I have talked to him

on FaceTime. We face timed with him this summer. We have met him in person. Um, we have a close policy. Tall he is, he's six four probably he's also he's a Cleveland guy, really good. I mean he is. I think like old white dudes would describe him as like salt of the earth, Like he's like a good guy. I was obsessed with Catching Kelsey. Did you watch that show? No? But I heard good things about it, and he picked a black girl, so I was like, Okay, then his

most recent fiance was a black girl. Okay, yes, but also I have and it's shameful. But I went to private school with white people in Brooklyn, so the white guys had like wig good tendency. My high school, one of the beastie boys went to you know, so um so I have like a really soft place for wiggas, like and it's a bad thing to me, but I like, really really do. And I think wiggas from Ohio are always the best ones. It's a wigas and Ohio wigas and Travis Kelsey is a wiga that I I. He's

so deeply attractive, handsome. I thought that's why I wouldn't like him, and then we got to know him and I started watching the play and he's just yeah, he's a really good dude. And I like his fashion too. I like the way he dresses and yeah, he just like he's really cool. He's really cool. Yeah he seems like it. He seems like a good time. He's not

super self serious. He seems nice. And I like that he's good at this job because it's like, especially in the NFL, like a lot of the attention speakers aren't as good as the attention they seek. And so I'm glad that he you know, I was and he just want a Super Bowl. He forget it and like for me, but I've always been I love defensive lineman. That's like,

that's what I'm into. Bodies wild and so like wide receivers and yeah, he was wide receivers are always like a little too like flashy and skinny for me, just actually more skinny. I like the flash, but a tight end. I'm like, oh, yeah, then we've got some like bulk con on the Bot and he really yeah, he's a He's a hunk. I could see him in his old days in Ohio rock and double cubic circonium earrings with like a sheep eyebrow, yeah, with with gray sweatpists and whatever.

Fresh Jordan's just came out and then like and like a tahoe with like super dark um windows windows. Yes, yes, um, I love there. There were c JS told me, I can't say the W word anymore, but you've said I there were a lot of um men like that that went to my high school. But then we also had a lot of black men that went to my high school. And I was like, it's wild that they don't ever beat up these kids. But everybody got along. It was

just there was it was. It was beautiful. My high school was a microcosm for what I wish the country could be. Um, okay, my number two is it's an entire team and if you guys tell me I can't, I do have one person on it. It's the US women's soccer team, Megan Megan Rappano. Um specifically them. Okay, so like them winning I was like her talking ship to Trump and then winning and being like, no, I'm still not going to the White House. I loved that.

And then watching them celebrate at their parade, fly on a private jet and then be at the SPS. It all happened in like twenty four hours. I was like, just are partying. They're like cool, They're all in, like they all have eight packs, but they're like chugging champagne. I find Megan Rappanos like and that's like the energy that I'm really like attracted to from women. And she is just they're good at their jobs. They Megan dresses so cool, Sue Bird is so cool. Like them as

a couple. I'm like very into. I would watch whatever they put out. You know it's an interview show, if it's a massage show, whatever, I'm into it. I just the yeah, and I couldn't name one man on the US soccer teach, but I'm like the U S women's soccer team. Whatever they will, I will do for them. Yes, I totally agree. Sue Bird also is like a big thing about that for me, like she's one of my Like, oh w n B A like for sure, So Megan getting this smasher every night is a beautiful thing. Yeah,

one time, just that one for sure. CJ. You got your number two. I got my number two. So originally was Russ but we said him. So I'm gonna go Skylar Diggins if we're talking w NBA. Skylar Diggins. She's stunning. Yeah, she is beautiful. Um yeah, like I mean I and she Yeah, she's she's really good. She played She's actually from Indiana, South Bend, went to Notre Dame and then uh yeah four times w NBA all start and she's awesome. She's with like rock Nation, but she is. Yeah, she's beautiful.

She has a TV show called Little Ballers Indiana that sounds like something Fallers Indiana. It's like that's this should be my number one favorite show. Who is she married? I just remember that Drake had a crush on her a couple of years back, but she was like she was in like a serious relationship with some like college players. Yes, so they are now married. He was a college football player in His name is Daniel Smith, and he's very hot. They look I mean yeah, their wedding photos. Actually know

she's prettier than him. Um, their wedding photos. But their wedding photos there like a beautiful couple together. Yeah. Yeah, she What did you do for money now? I mean I hope not work at enterprise like the rest of them. I mean I don't know, maybe sell insurance like or maybe maybe he um uh yeah, because I was gonna be like live off her money. But then I always forget how little they pay, how little they get paid. Yeah, that's why I asked. You know she was an m

for sure, she justare of her husband. But someone like like her, she probably has like really amazing endorsements because she looks like a fitness model. Um, so I'm hoping she's getting some Nike money on the side, because, like Sue Bird is rich. But she went to Butch too. Um, well, Super, I think it's maybe it wasn't Super, but there's this if I'm thinking of another woman who coached assistant coach for Becky Hammon. Yeah, she's amazing. She was even being

talked about as an NBA head coach. I think it will happen. That ain't gonna I hope that they were saying the Pacers and I was like, oh God, these Hillbillies are gonna lose their fucking minds if they I know. I feel like I feel like men think they want to listen to a woman, but I don't know. I feel like the first woman NBA coach, like the head coach, is gonna meet a load of resistance. She has to be like the best coach in the world. That happens.

That's why I honestly think Becky Hammond is incredibly talented and good at her job. I also think that her being with Pop like like because people are like, oh, he's a genius, he's the best, he's the most like outspoken, willing to like do whatever for his players. That if she was an assistant under a different head coach, I don't think she would have the same sway to be

able to go other places. And also she's gonna have to work her way up you know how like Steve Nash is going to get to come in and not have been the whole time. There's no way that a woman can do it because all these men are going to be expecting her to prove herself in one capacity or another. And like, I'm not saying I like this, but it's just I think the only way it'll happen. And like even how to solve vouching for her didn't mean right, yeah, she almost has to do it within

the Spurs organization. Well yeah, hear me. People are talking about pop going somewhere else or just well no, no, well Steve Nash right, like I could see like in a move popping like I'm retiring but only because I want Becky to be a head coach something like that. But yeah, it's gonna be under like extreme circumstances. Like you said, Ray, we root for you, Becky. I mean a beauty, a blonde Becky. It has all of our support. Okay, yes,

and we're rooting for her. What an anomaly. Okay, let's say a quick break and then we'll be back with our number one picks. Okay, we are back. Ray, since you are our guest, you are going to be our final cherry on top. So you're gonna pick last. So I'm going to go through my honorable mention, which there are many. Okay, so my first honorable mention is Jeter in his baseball pride. Just I know, I'm sorry you guys. As a child, I just was like, what's what's going

on with him? Like I couldn't help but feel Yeah, Jeter. I thought j just had this like swag and this booty in those pants. I was into. I'm sorry, Yes, I really was. That's so interesting to me because even as far back in fourth grade, I remember being like, I don't get whatever the sea. I'm with you, he's lame to me, he's been lame like that. Wow, he's only He's only my first of eighteen honorable mentions. Okay, so then my next honorable mention is um Jason Taylor

or Dolphins player. Oh oh my god. I remember we had like our seats were right next to the opposing team's tunnel, and so a lot of times you would get to see the NFL players like with their helmets off. And when he walked by my best friend and I we stood up. We were like, who is that? Like he is just so oh beautiful. Um Okay, Jalen Rose, uh,

probably my number one. Yeah, I love him when he was on the Pacers personality when well, so I became in love with him when he was on the Pacer So that was like playing and I just loved him. So I know right now, I don't think I was watching that game. I think he's had a little bit of a glow up. But yeah, I know some people really don't like him. Yeah, he's got up the ESPN job I usually past. Yeah, I liked even like him

at Michigan. I think that's like, okay, not Chriber. Well, I and this is something I have where I'm like, I will sometimes choose the person less hot because I'm like, maybe they'd like me, you know, maybe Well this next, I mean, p J. Tucker is kind of like people are like, that's your number one. I'm like, I just he's like so intense. He loves sneakers, and I think he has like such a cute face and I love him. Um sonorable Dwight Freey is obviously my number one crush

of all time. And then tennis um tennis player James Blake. I was so into if he's the US player that got beat up by top or whatever. Yes, he's also the Yes, he's also the US player that Lateon Hewitt a tennis player. Once there was a line judge who was black. I think it was the US Open, and the line judge called something out and Layton Hewit goes, okay, well look at him and then look at him like that the judge was throwing. Yeah, he got big trouble. Um.

I have not liked him ever since. And then oh okay, so then my number one in Oh boy, this may be controversial. He had a he got indefinitely banned from the NFL. But it's Miles Garrett. Yeahs he is huge. He is just so big and poetry has such a soft side. And listen, I know a lot of he's got a soft side. Why is he did well? Because this is this is gonna be a drawback for some people, but not for me. He whipped his helmet at Mason Rudolph,

who was the backup. Yeah, so he basically, you know, I don't know if it was manslaughter, but it was. He did try to kill him with his helmet, which is a weapon. He contends that is his name. Miles Rudolph Mason Rudolf. Mason Rudolph spoke a slur to him, yes, um, and so everyone else is like, that didn't happen, And then Mike Tomlin was like that didn't happen. It's like, Mike, we don't just stay on the sideline. But I think Miles is a kind, sweet soul, and I do think

something happened for him to react to that crazy. I don't that's like not who he is. Having never met him, I can tell you that's not who he is. But yeah, him on hard knocks with a shirt OFFI investment. I think he's back. He was. Honestly, I think he would have been banned for life, but he's like so good and he's on the Browns that the NFL was like whatever. Like I truly if he had been if he was so anyone else, I think he would have gotten in a lot more trouble. But he is truly bluffed, and

so I guess. I did see him in person at the Pro Bowl and I had to like move away, like it was just like, oh my god, she's just so huge and cool. Okay, that's my number one, Okay, so quickly my honorable mentions. Anna Cornicova. Um, some hack shit. I know. It was like again just me as a child, Reggie Bush, I think, is like what a running back should look like. Is so cool. And again like now he's like even hotter, I think because he was pre the Kardashian's curse. Like he's like I got in there

and I got out. Yeah, but then he legitimized her. Yeah yeah, and so we aren't mad at him for that? Yes, yeah. Um so my number one, this is really strange. It's gonna be really strange. Summer Sanders, No, I think that's really funny. But do you know who Summer Sanders is? So she is the she is Olympic swimmer who hosted Figure it Out on Nickelodeon as a kid, and I think that was like this, and she hosted Inside NBA Inside stuff for a minute, and so just again just

that's the then diagram of my hobbies back then. Of like, so she would just a major crush and I yeah, I just I thought she She's very she's very attractive. I mean, talk about a gettable crush. We could make one call. In summer Sanders would be at our house even during COVID. I had more friends, had a Summer Sanders fan club growing up. But yeah, so she that's not bad, that's not bad. But I will, I will need you to admit that that also encompasses personality because

she's not right. That's true, that's true. She was like fun and like I mean, she was a game show host who liked sports. Yeah, it's basically if Vanna White talked, that's what you're talking about. Yeah. No, I mean it's when when people describe that the like Liz Lemon theory, where it's like, yeah, you're attracted to someone who's like gettable and like you know, I don't want to say like low self esteem, but like, yeah, that's I think

what I feel for that. And Summer. You seem like you would be as a boy like her name Summer and I love summer. There's no school, have a peanut brain. It's so I'm not I can admit that for sure. Swimming is cool. I mean, Ryan Lockty, I was gonna put him on my list, be he's just so fucking

stupid that I couldn't. Swimmers. Swimmers are like toned in a way that's that's really cool, um J. But the swimmer's body is like logs in the torso and I prefer the legs to be in the leg me too, And I am a long torso bitch, and I'm sad every day. Um just it's just like a very long torso, very stubby legs. Okay, right, do you have any honorable mentions? Yes, okay, honorable mentions are if we're talking baseball, Ken Griffy Jr.

Oh yeah, yeah. Yeah. Like I remember being a kid and even though I was like a super big Yankee fan, I made my dad buy me all of these like Ken Griffy shirts and posters and things like that. He's gonna, um the best ask in athletic period. I don't care what anyone says. People like to talk about other people's but Ken Griffin is the best. But I don't seen

in my entire life. I think baseball pants is something like kind of magical to But yes, because I was watching Sports Center last night and some guy I think his name was like Brian Clarity and he like is a picture for like uh, Milwaukee or whatever, and he's just this lanky, fucking doofy, honestly handsome guy and I was like, I don't like this whatever, and then he turns around it right before he enters himself, because that was the quick life. I was like, oh, that's a

nice pass. Baseball. Baseball does great things. But but Jared Smith is not an honorable mention. He's just the love of my life. But I had to mention him because he wasn't on this foot. But my number one ever ever ever in my entire life is Kevin Garnett. Tell

us why? Yeah? So? Um. I think I think I might have been like eleven or twelve, and I saw Kevin Garnet on an episode of Jay Leno and he was incredibly charming and he just looked like a tall Central African statue to me, and I just suddenly was like, Oh, that's my man and so and like you, Megan, I like the guy who not everyone's eating for or not

everybody thinks it's hot. And I love an underdog and so, like when the Lakers were just dominating dominated it dominated, I'm like, when's kag gonna get to his conference final? Like when's kg gonna get you know? And I remember,

like it was like one day in school. I think I was in like eleventh grade or twelfth grade or something, and it was the conference finals versus the Lakers, and I remember, like I loved KG so much, I really filed out and it was an elimination game and he filed out and I had to turn the TV off because my heart couldn't take it because it went into overtime and KG KG was filed out, and so like, I waited till the next morning and I got to school and I logged into the computer there and I

saw they want and I was like, fucking I lost my mind. Obviously they lost the next game, but like, I don't know something about him, and while he SERBIAC were like just followed. And then when Kevin Garnett joined Boston, everybody hated that scene and everyone hated everyone hated like Paul most of all. But I really really really really loved Free Alan Yeah, and Kevin and KG. I don't know just everything about the way he talked and like his I don't give a funk. I love a man

who's arrogant and talk shit. I love him on his show right now, the one he has a Chandie Parker. I just think he's so charming and funny and handsome and long. And I feel like if I worked hard enough, I could get him. Yeah, I think so. He has a new commercial now too that's like not basketball related. I think it's some sort of like cocktail. And it like stuck out to me because I was like, oh, yeah,

he has like model like dimension. You know, he's like tall, lean, he has like a beautiful bald head, has like a really nice, like handsome, great face that he could be like a Calvin Kleine runway model and fully blend him at New York Fashion Week and you would have no idea. Who's a basketball player? Yeah? Yes, the cheek like he has a great like bone structure and he's an asshole. And I'm talking why that? Yeah, so long too, I

mean yeah he played for a long time. I mean yeah, he was in an Adam Sandley movie directed by the Safty brothers. Like he's done it all. Yeah yeah, And and you know, like obviously this is not about history, like I'm not attractive because they changed the game or whatever, but like he did change the game, you know, like for high school players to come in and make that much money. He changed the position of forwards. And so I don't know, I just fucking love the dude. I

just love the dude. And who gives the funk about Minnesota. Yeah, and I heard he was trying to buy the teams hopefully gets that. Gosh, I can't wait for that. I know it's like so so so expensive, but I can't wait for former athletes to be owners and like in way more way more than Jordan's Like I I can't wait for Lebron being a team out like it's just gonna I I hope it changes the country, like I

really genuine it will. I mean, you know, like black people don't have access to generational wealth in the same way, and so there's not a lot of like billionaires who can afford a team. But it would be incredible to see like the sport that made these people then be like owned by these people. You know, it is weird when you have like a guy like James Dolan giving to Trump when you know, the whole like the bubble.

It's both people except for Gordon Hayward, who care about black lives matters, and so like I want to see like the ownership reflects the labor and so that's gonna be really really cool. And I think like Lebron would be like a hard owner to work for. I imagine because he seems to be pretty strict that even his teammates weird, but like, I think he would be an amazing one for a good team. And like even Lebron has been a bad gs even with this, like they've

been able to accomplish as players. This um all the stadiums being voting like places. It's like, think if they were owners, how much like they would be able to Like that's a feat in and of itself, Like people keep tweeting at the NFL, like why do you guys open your stadiums? It's like that would never happen. The NBA got it to happen, and then they're gonna be owners and they're gonna be able to make so much more.

Like they're just gonna, you know, open it up to like hey, if you live in the neighborhood, come to the gate, Like they're just gonna be kinder better, Um Zion paying the entire stadiums. You don't have a child, And I was like, I was like, how are you

not embarrassed as Zion showed you up this way? But they weren't, And because they're like, oh, I would never give my money yes, And then so like I'm I'm very glad for their being, like you know, guys like le Bron who obviously have their minds set on that kind of accomplishment later on. And I'm really really excited to see it. And I hope KG owns Minnesota. That would be awesome too. Yeah, that'd be great. I feel like that would sell tickets like they they would benefit

from it too. Right, this has been so much fun. I love talking hotties with you. Where can our listeners find you? Okay? Um, I'm on Twitter at Rayni. Just so you guys know, I don't only talk about players. So if you're not obsessed with reality TV like Real House Lives and stuff, you maybe don't join up. And

I have a podcast called The Deliberation. It's a podcast where we recap the challenge on the Real World It used to be Real World road Rules Challenge Challenge now and they have like actual athletes on these things, like Lolo Jones is gonna be and I'm not happy about it. Well, she was on the list like they had they had a I don't think she ever won a gold medal. She didn't. I thought she did give it back. Maybe

she was a world champion. She's been a world champion of Bunch but like that's why she even switched to Bob's Lettings, trying to get a gold medal and she's to get us there. But but she was on there like Champ versus Stars version, and she sucked a lot there, and then they brought her on for the regular challenge and I'm confidence she's going to be insufferable and stuck there too. Um and yeah, I'm just around or whatever. Friends, if you're hot and you're tall and your black fude

and you're smart, dm Ray has an incredible opinions. She has been against or you have you've seen Monique Samuel's for what she was since then, Yes, yes, yes, I can admit when I'm wrong, and I've been wrong about other housewives before. Like I was totally wrong about fighting on Beverly Hills this year. I can admit it. But I was right about Monique Famiels, I was right about Liam Blacking. There are a lot more I'm right about.

I just can't remember any. So this podcast will come out Tuesday, but I can't wait for Potomac tomorrow night. I'm yes a fist fight on TV. It's the only kind of prize fighting that I do like.
