Greetings Rod, Karen, and Jephen Silas,
With Harden going east the exodus continues! While I feel bad for his black coach, I just imagine James Harden watching the team that was up 3-2 on the Warriors in the 2018 WCF lose his GM, his coach, and downgrade at the PG position from CP3, to Russ, to John Wall over the next 2 seasons… Gotta say, I can’t blame Harden for wanting out. Now he can go be an “ain’t my fault” All-Star in Brooklyn while everyone will blame Kyrie for everything that goes wrong up there. By the time all those draft picks Houston got in this trade become worth anything, the “James Harden Fellows” will all have their doctorates!!
Meanwhile, LBJ and the fightin’ LeBron’s stay winning, King James is on track for ANOTHER MVP award (He ain’t gonna win, but he stays in the conversation every year, AMAZING), and the Clippers stay… well, being the Clippers (who loses by 50 in the NBA?!). With the rest of the west looking entirely beatable, and the east looking to be a high-scoring, entertaining blood bath, do you got the new super Nets coming out of the east? Check out our guy @SupremeDreams_1 take on LeBron’s response to the Nets getting Harden:

Hey Rod, Karen and Jyrie Irving
Look I don’t know why folks are mad at Kyrie. He told y’all he was taking his PTO, don’t worry about what he’s doing on his time! No wonder Harden wanted to get traded there, the only franchise that might let him get away with as many covid violations as he did in Houston. But Kemdoc is right folks are giving the Nets some benefit of the doubt despite the chemistry mess, but if this was the Knicks?? Whewwww buddy we’d be getting roasted for days! Y’all boy Hayward cooked us enough this week, I’m good just chilling in the cut for once.
And shout out to Dough for Mollywhopping the Steelers and Ol Rapey Ben. Everybody is busy talking about MAGA Brady, don’t forget it was Ben who introduced Stormy Daniels to 45, and according to her book the QB was the creepier one of the two. You love to see bad things happen to worse people.Â
Hello Roland, Kathy, and the Jooklyn Nets,
That franchise is in complete disarray when you peel back the layers. Kyrie is doing whatever the eff….they traded away all their draft picks for a nigga that quit on Houston (the hell you think finna happen in Brooklyn??)…..upside is KD is balling. It’s amazing how this looks when the franchise is the lowly Nets and not the hated and much maligned Knicks. I shuddered to think of all the dunking people would be doing on us had we landed KD and Kyrie and all of this was playing out….and then on top of that we mortgaged the future away for Harden. Them niggas better win within the next 2 years. Which they won’t. Kyrie is the weak link there and the reason I don’t see it working. Somebody said their offense finna look like this and I laughed for 2 min straight:

The nba is pretty exhausting with players running out on franchises. The precedent that is being sent makes these contracts and drafts pointless. I can’t stand this. I mean damn. Who’s next to do it?? Giannis? Zion? Devin??
Drains the competitive nature and fun out of the whole league. If they not joining Lebron they’re joining KD.
On another note, Charlotte looks pretty good!!!
Take care,
Kemdoc
What’s up Rod, Karen, and Jay Pederson,
Seems like just a week ago the Eagles thought they had their coach and franchise QB. Now all that is gone. I was surprised to see Pederson get fired but after week 17 he earned that. Now the Eagles will be looking for a coach. But after all this the only person I feel bad for is Duce Staley who the Eagles basically use to fill their Rooney Rule requirement. Also it looks like Harden was successful in getting his wish. But my question is what will this new Nets team look like with two superstars who play the same position. But with Kyrie taking his Dr. Sebi sabbatical the Nets could be stuck with Harden for a bit. Also did you all see KU took a knee and John Calipari completely threw his team under the bus just because white folks in Kentucky were doing what white folks do. But anyway love the show.

Good afternoon Rod, Karen and Jig Jen Rothlesberger,
I hope all is good with y’all. Shouts out to Bills and Bucaneers on breaking their playoff droughts this past weekend.
Congrats to everyone whose team won this weekend.
My apologies for the caps.
THE CLEVELAND BROWNS GAVE THE STEELERS THAT WOOD SHAMPOO IN THEIR OWN HOME IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE COUNTRY. TWENTY EIGHT OF THEM THANGS IN THE FIRST QUARTER! BIG BEN OUT THERE LOOKING FLABBIER AND SICKER THAN LARRY HOLMES WITH MEASLES, MUMPS AND RUBELLA!
By the way: Big Ben? $41 million cap hit next season.
MANY PEOPLE HAVE TAKEN MICHELLE OBAMA’S “When they go low, we go high” OUTTA CONTEXT, BUT NONE WORSE THAN BLUE LIVES MATTER COON AND STEELERS
CENTER MAURKICE POUNCEY. THAT NIGGA WAS SENDING THEM SNAPS LOW, HIGH AND EVERYWHERE BUT THE INCAPABLE HANDS OF BEN ROTHLESBERGER. DO Y’ALL KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO SEND A SNAP OVER WHOSE TALLER THAN A PORTA POTTY?
Maukice Pouncey believes two things: blue lives matter and playoff lives *don’t* matter.
BIG BEN WAS CRYING AFTER THE GAME CUZ HE HAD THE FRONTEST ROW SEATS TO WATCH HIS PLAY. DID BIG BEN BREAK ALL 12 OF HIS RIBS AND LOSE AN EYE? CUZ HE PLAYED LIKED IT. THAT BIG BEN PACK WAS IN THE AIR ALL NIGHT, MUCH LIKE ALL 4 OF THOSE PICKS HE THREW.
Ben had sixty-eight passing attempts. No way in hell that was the game plan.
JUJU SMITH-SCHUSTERWAS DUMBFOUNDED AFTER GAME CUZ HE REALIZES DESPITE HAVING A GREAT GAME, HE’S GETTING BLAMED FOR THIS SHIT AND NOT BEN! YOU HATE TO SEE IT, MUCH LIKE YOU HATE TO RUN ROUTE AND BEN SHOT PUT AN INTERCEPTION TO THE BROWNS FOUR FUCKING TIMES.
Medical schools should show students Ben’s footage from this game for a lesson on absolute futility. Shouts out to anyone applauding Ben for “fighting” all game.
NICK CHUBB, KAREEM HUNT, TAKITAKI, DONOVAN PEOPLE-JONES AND YES , EVEN MY BELOVED ITWAN QUARTERBACK BAKER MANFIELD, THANK Y’ALL SO MUCH!
All I hoped when the Browns jumped out to that 28 point lead was “please don’t go out like Atlanta”. All I wanted outta this season was for the Browns to be fun AND THEM NIGGAS DELIVERED LIKE USPS!
I don’t care if Kansas City, Powerball Pat and them 50 short fast niggas hang 70 on the Browns cuz that ain’t taking my joy away. Browns ain’t have a winning season since I was 16 (2007), *been to* the playoffs since I was 11 (2002, fuck Tommy Maddox forever) and hadn’t *won* a playoff game since I was 3 (1994). All my life, these niggas have been sorry. Oh and they hadn’t won a road playoff game since my mom was in college (1969).
Sorry for the length of this and thank you as always for the great shows and all the hard work y’all do. I appreciate y’all work.
Niggas only, only niggas,
Dough
P.S.: Rest in peace to Bomani Jones’s Twitter mention for the other AFC playoff game
Greetings Rod Karen and jyrie Irving!
Im convinced Kyrie listens to tbgwt! And he has been listening to Karen talk about PTO, because he decided to to take some in the middle of the season , to find where the earth ends, go to a party (mask less) and do a fund raiser or zoom for a politician in Manhattan! Mean while his team decided to pull a retro move! Do you guys remember when Brooklyn took a old Paul pierce and Kevin Garnett and gave up 100 first round picks? Well here we go again! This time for chunky monkey James harden! 8 picks? Wtf! This is why we can’t have nice things in New York!
Rod you have said this country is stupid and it has been proven again! Alabama wins the cfb championship and the people of Tuscaloosa decide to take to the street and celebrate the win! As if Alabama don’t win every year!
Before I go, why is hard knocks still a thing? Has any team that participated in that show ever won that same year? That need to just come to an end!!
Have a great weekend
Fyahworks out!
Yo what up! Just writing in to see how you Patio Primates are doing this week. Before I go any further I want to give shouts out to Dough, and any other Browns fans listening for the big win against the Steelers. I work with a Browns fan and a couple Steelers fans, so I know how real the rivalry is. Good luck to them the rest of the playoffs.
On another note, I wanted to know what you guys thought about the Bears/Saints game being simulcast on CBS and Nickelodeon. I don’t know if the fellas watched it on Nick, but I know Karen did, and I wanted to get her thoughts about it. I thought it was pretty dope, and I’d actually like to see more of that in the future. It would be cool to see them cover other sports as well. What do you all think about that?
Finally, I wanted to ask the 3 of you your overall thoughts about LaMelo Ball and the Hornets so far. What are the things you’ve noticed, and like about Melo’s game, and about the team as a whole to this point?
L Brothers
What up ballers! I don’t have much sports to add; just a “groupie tale†speculation… I was scrolling on IG when I came across Brittany Renner (bundleofbrittany) IG page. By the looks of her latest post (and the fact that her comments section are now disabled) it appears that she has finally hit the groupie jackpot! PJ Washington apparently got comfortable over the holidays and shot the club up (allegedly allegedly of course). If this holds true, then congratulations to the both of them! That’s all I got for ya. I would talk about something sports related but y’all ninjas don’t do much sports news anyway LOL jk
“Niggas Onlyâ€!
