Sports are back is the start of the is the first quarter of the second quarter of the NFL season of no man's land No Sports, but we did have horse last night, which I'll tell you right now I did not watch, did not tune into that. It's Zach Levine. That's really the only it's Zach Levine who competes in every single like off the books contest there is at the end that the NBA can throw at you. Chris Paul, Paul Pierce, really no interest in whatsoever. It, uh, yeah, I'm not going to watch it either. Uh, unless Zachalveen wins, and I'll probably raise a banner in the United Center, but it is this weird. We're in the spot. I think it was Friday, maybe was the official month, uh, that we've had no sports. Like the official mark of like, you have now gone one month without any sports. And it's weird how normal it's starting to feel as much as I miss it. I'm getting scared because it's like day day after day it becomes more normal. This weird fucking existence where we wake up and just do the same thing over and over and over. I need something to break it up. Dana White, I need you to get fight Island going. I need something even even the MLB throwing out the different divisions that they would use where they're saying they're gonna do a shortened season and have it be all played in Florida and Arizona. Even that got me excited. I was like, oh, this is kind of a cool idea. And I'm actually all for this because it's gonna be such a weird season anyway. If they play a in season, then why not have just completely random divisions and have it beat something totally different where we always look back and we're like, oh, yeah, that was the season that the Cubs were in the same division as the Giants or, you know, whatever, whatever they all break down to be, why not do that? It'll be fun to at least watch something coat totally different. Right, the only thing that we have pulling us forward right now

is the NFL draft. And thank God that that's there, because that's at least giving us something to talk about. It feels normal that it's gonna happen. Besides that, the only other NFL news is Mike Floreo getting mad about players breaking social distance and guidelines. Like he is a one man wrecking crew. Floreo, this is like his time to gnarc everybody that's practicing so that the cowboys are addicted to breaking quarantine.

The Dallas Cowboys got to man wrecking crew here. Florio, this is like his time to knock on everybody that's practicing.

So the Cowboys are addicted to breaking quarantine. The Dallas Cowboys got together, Dak Prescott threw it to like, Des Bryant. I think Cooper was there, a bunch of people. And then they had a party. They had a party versus in quarantine party, which is kind of a weird thing to do. And then if you're going to have a quarantine party, the rules should be like put your phone in this basket so that Florio doesn't talk about us all day on Sunday.

He was right about that one.

I mean, having a party is, oh, sweetly saying, I don't care. I'm rich. Who cares about all these rules? And I think we need what we really need more than anything is we need like a concerted PSA that gets put out across all messages where it basically is all your favorite football players saying if you don't stay at home and follow these rules, we won't have football. Because that's that's how the world needs to understand this problem. Because it would clearly like just saying stay at home for the health of your family members. People like fuck my family. I don't care about Nana. Well, how about stay at home so that you can watch

week six Thursday night football, the Jaguars play the Titans. Now you're gonna stay at home forever. That's what I'm saying, I never wanna leave. I will stay inside all summer if it means that we have football in the fall. Like, I think that colleges, there's just no chance that they're gonna give up entire football season. They're going to figure out a way to make their free money.

Like without that free money, I then the ins AA even going to do? That might be actually still relying to this whole thing. Like we saw the XFL, they had to close their doors over the weekend. A lot of sports businesses are having to shut down because they don't have their income. The NCAA, if they miss a football season, they might have to just declare bankruptcy. I don't know. Can the NCAA run out of money? I think they have like billions of billions of dollars stashed away, at least I assume. At the very least, if we take away, you know, they lost March madness, they're worried about losing college football. Maybe they'll just come out with another NCAA football game. Right. Right. Right, we need to make money somehow. So fuck it. Let's just turn to EA sports. Shout out, by the way, the guy who's totally lost his mind more than anyone in the world who is invited to come on and rehabilitate the fact that he can't have a coherent thought anymore, like more than one coherent thought in a 24 hour span, Darren Revelle, who tweeted out the ultimate troll about the XFL only playing what 20 games in the AAF lasting 34. And then everyone saying cool tweet, dude. And he basically was like, well, the context is implied. Everyone knows the context, such a classic Revelle, like looking for the negative interaction and then being like, you guys are the stupid ones because clearly everyone knows what I mean. I'm gonna ban, I'm personally banning muting, I'm muting replies and I'm personally banning response to Dana Revelle's tweets because that's all he has going for right now. Correct. To Daren, his personal sport has always been how many replies can I get telling me I'm a nerd to any given tweet or calling me a narc or report being me to the police. So I think the only way to fight that is just not pay attention. So I'm turning a blind eye to Dern. And then and then replying to a few select few being like hey I was nerd in high school but now I'm rich and I have a family and it's like the, it's like the Michael Scott, like I want to have a family of 100 kids.

So that way none of them can ever say no to me

and they all have to be my friend.

Yeah, he makes his kids,

he's gonna make his kids reply to his tweets

when we all stop doing it.

It's well, that's right.

And your kid too, because he controls your kids.

Yeah, he did. Yeah, start that up. Yeah, Revelle, he's going off the deep end big time. Yeah, and you know what the XFL it's it sucks But I am declaring DC defenders champions of on behalf of the Vipers I'm accepting the XFL championship for the DC defenders can go to you guys to the fight How we wanted to win it? But the stats don't lie. So first place in the beast toughest division hardest strength strength to schedule. I'll take it. They lost the Vipers. That's fine. Vipers were terrible. Mark trusted. That's fine. I mean, hey, they lost the Vipers. The Chiefs lost a couple games this year too. Yeah, that's true. They did. They did Vipers. All right. So let's do who's back. We got We got a good show. We, Brooks cap with coming up. We have Mount Flush more than we have Billy's deep dive, which what is Billy doing today? Do we know? I forgot. Crypto's wall. Maybe. Yeah. So that should be a good one. I think I was like, let's try and keep it tight. And he said, okay, just big foot then. I don't know what that means, but I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I what that means, but I just I wrote are going to lead back to Berserker mode with Billy this summer. I have a feeling that he's just trying to weave that into whatever conversation. Crypto's biology. We have a bunch of really good draft content coming up in the next like week and a half. All right. Yeah. Stay tuned for the end of the show because like yes, is doing a little outro form because I kicked his ass on the peloton. Yes. Yes. So that will be it'll be great to hear him have to sing. Who's back of the

week? Hank, you start. I was back the week is the sons. Humans versus sons. I'm sure you guys

tuned in, although probably not because neither did I, but there was the NBA. They had the NBA

players play in like a 2k tournament and the championship was Devin Booker versus Deandre Hayden. So they might not be the best NBA basketball team, but they are definitely the most skilled NBA 2K team. Devin Booker won the whole thing and sons are back. Is this one of those situations where winning this

is kind of like telling on yourself that you're really good at a video game? Yeah, I mean, that's kind of what people, there's a lot of people making jokes. Like the fact that it's two sons in the championship doesn't really mean that's not a good thing, I don't think. No, although it could be a good thing because I think weren't the San Antonio Spurs back when they were awesome with Tim Duncan and Tony Parker and,
