Welcome into Power Rankers, Jason Goff, MIA today.

I think he lost his voice over the weekend. I'm very excited. It sounds like Jason was scared to compete.

I say this every single time he misses a show which is now twice. He's just he's just not gonna competitor. He's not willing to rise to the occasion. I lose my voice. I find a way. I'll just say that updates on the weekend. I did have a eventful weekend with do a handful. I won't know free ads on the podcast with a handful of really good restaurants in LA.

Scotty Pippen speaking of Chicagoans who let a little ailment get in the way of them going on out on the court. Another famous example.

Wow. Jason got compared to Scotty Pippen senior. The funniest thing. Scotty Pippen senior Scotty Pippen senior was there across the way.

There Scotty Pippen junior could have done a 360 win-win will dunk this guy did not care. He looks like he hated being there. I was like watching his reactions to every single time his son did anything legitimately could not care less. It was it was hard to see man. It was hard to impress Scotty Pippen senior in the G league debut or I guess season debut for the South Bay Lakers.

I was going to say you didn't have the same experience. You did the $40 experience. It wasn't quite the same. Didn't get the bang for his buck. I caught two shirts. Two shirts.
