Recap
PFT CommenterKevin Durant might not improve the Warriors because there are too many cooks in the kitchen
I'm actually going to go out on a limb and say that Kevin Durant might not really improve the Warriors that much. Yeah, he's a really good player. He's got a lot of cooks in the kitchen now. You need some role players. You ever hear the expression, too many Chiefs, not enough Indians?
Big CatThe biggest takeaway from Kevin Durant's move is that the NBA now only has two teams
The biggest takeaway is it sucks for the NBA as a whole that there's basically only two teams.
Mount Rushmore
Big CatI hope the Cavaliers beat the Warriors again next year
I hope the Cavs beat the Warriors again next year. Then David West goes to the Cavs. And then the Warriors beat the Cavs. And he's just stuck losing like every single year.
Interview
Marlins ManZack Hample is a 100% liar regarding how he obtained his Fort Bragg ticket
I decided to tell the truth and call out the liar and his friends and his family. ... [Zack Hample] is [a liar] absolutely, positively, 100%. And I've given him an opportunity to come clean, and like say, I'm sorry, you know, I made a mistake... He needs to say it because in about a couple of hours, he's going to be proven to be a 100% liar.
Marlins ManI am ground zero for sports stars and the first sports celebrity who wasn't an athlete
I was actually told by a reporter from Sports Illustrated when he interviewed me, he said, you're the first sports star. I mean, what the hell is a sports star? Star for sports. You're the first one. You're the first guy to become a sports celebrity that wasn't an athlete. ... You are ground zero for sports stars.
Zack HampleMarlins Man was only complaining about not getting into the Fort Bragg game, not skipping it out of respect
I asked him, the first thing I asked him before the game was, hey, are you going to Fort Bragg? He said nothing about respecting the military. All he did was complain about how he couldn't get in and how he does so much to promote Sunday night baseball and Major League Baseball. But MLB and the Marlins are being mean and they won't let him in. ... So for him to now suddenly be bashing me for going is just quite frankly bizarre.
Zack HampleYou can't catch home runs when you sit in the first row behind home plate like Marlins Man
If he wants to talk it out and have lunch... I would even go to a game with him. But I don't want to sit in the legend seats at Yankee Stadium because you can't catch a home run when you're sitting in the first row behind home plate. Of course not. I would gladly help Marlins man catch a baseball game.
Thoughts And Prayers
PFT CommenterRussell Wilson's sex with Ciara on their wedding night will be fast and furious because of his long celibacy
Russell has not had sex in a long time. He's not going to be, how shall we put, he's not going to be gentle with you. He's not going to last long. Silver lining. Spin zone. It's going to be fast. It's going to be furious. It's not going to be fun. Russell is going to be having sex like somebody who can get shot at any time.
