Oh my goodness, good morning, good afternoon.

Whatever it is for you, I hope you're having a fantastic day.

My name is Zach Schombler.

This is Strong Opinion Sports episode 268. I got a stye in my eye with like little

thing in your tear duct it's really frustrating can't get it out really bothering me

I've been awake for literally over 24 hours. I had not slept yet from last night.

I watched 16 hours in a row of basketball. So many games I've got so much to say. I do want to say too,

I think the best, I don't know if the best, my personal favorite topic in this episode is at the very end, the very last topic is about

T.J. Watt and answering the question, do I owe T.J.

what an apology and having a lot of fun with it? I got a lot of hate. Oh my goodness.

People were very, very angry at me about something I said regarding

TJ Watt. We'll have a lot of fun with that. First I want to start with this. I

want to get a fair warning actually. I am about to go on a somewhat

passionate hopefully not too mean-spirited hopefully just I want to lay a boundary a little bit but I want to go on a rant and talk about something

that I really deeply care about.

That is not something, it's about sports, obviously that's what the show is about.

Man, I'm asking people please, stop with the comments telling me to stop covering basketball.

Stop it. I don't, it's a boundary I'm gonna lay down.

This is not a football podcast. This is a

sports podcast about sports, not one sports-centric, it's about all the sports.

And I cover what I can, I cover what I care about, I cover what I can I cover what I care about I cover what I'm

interested in I love basketball I grew up playing basketball I grew up watching
