I'm Israel Gutierrez. I'm hosting a new podcast called Four Years of Heat. It takes you to Miami from 2010 to 2014

with LeBron James, Chris Bosch and Duane Wade, set the NBA ablaze.

You know, having an opportunity to team up with the best trio to ever play the game of basketball

will take you inside those four monumental years with behind-the-scenes access and insight about one of the greatest teams ever assembled.

Four years of heat on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,

or wherever you get your podcasts.

What is going on, my people? John Middell-Cop, three-and-out podcast.

Kind of a somber night. I flipped on the television at 520. It's a routine I've had for the last, I don't know, 14, 15 weeks.

And I realized that Joe Buck and Troy Ackman were not gracing me with their presence.

So I would have no, and I speak for all of us, we have no more Thursday night football.

And I know that it's been fun in the media and Twitter world and social media to crush Thursday night football.

But damn, man, I miss it. And tonight sucked. Just in, I'm still recording this late,

not quite as late as I typically would, but man, not cool, not cool at all.

I attempted to watch the Rockets Miami Heat just did not do it for me.

Now, I guess if we're going to go out on top last week was a damn good game to go out on top four.

But, you know, as someone that puts together a podcast, the great part about doing, you know, one on Tuesday and Friday

is the game always gave me a couple of topics.

And for the most part, especially Thursday night games, we've had excellent matchups, the majority of the season.

So there's been like, I mean, legitimate national topics and just things that were interesting to me.

And now we don't have that. So it makes me sad.

But we still got a lot of other stuff to talk about today that I'm fired up on.

I'm going to try to get to a big middle cop mailbag, answer a bunch of you guys questions.
