Recap
Big CatThe NBA holding their awards show in late June is a stupid move
I don't want a fucking award show on a random Monday in June. Mentally, we do as fans [care about the postseason results]. I'm thinking, of course James Harden didn't win it because the Rockets flamed out again. It's so stupid that they do it this way. They should just do it right before the playoffs.
PFT CommenterDoc Rivers looked like a better coach when Austin Rivers was on his team because Austin was such a shithead
Doc Rivers appeared to be a better coach when he had his son on the team because his son was such a shithead that if you could squeeze a little bit of blood out of Austin Rivers, then you looked like a fucking genius.
Big CatI predict Kawhi Leonard will stay with the Toronto Raptors
I think Kawhi's going to stay in Toronto. We're going to do a Sunday night full recap of this league because we're going to tape after the 6 p.m. All these things I feel like have been decided.
Big CatKyrie Irving is clearly the common denominator for the locker room dysfunction at his various stops
There was this tweet that was the quotes from Kyrie Irving's basically last four or five years where essentially he said that he hated all his teammates and all his coaches at every stop. Like, hey, man, eventually you are the asshole, right?
PFT CommenterTim Tebow should be the manager of the New York Mets
There's one clear pathway out of this, and that's Tim Tebow. Why don't they make Tebow the manager? Because he can't hit a baseball. Right. He won't ever threaten to fight a reporter. Right.
Hot Seat Cool Throne
HankThe Warriors training staff is sketchy and prioritizes the team over player health
My hot seat is the Warriors training staff. Since the Durant injury, there's been rumors about how Durant was ripshit over the Warriors training staff for kind of lying to him and telling him that the injury wasn't as bad... And Iguodala went on The Breakfast Club today, and he basically revealed himself that he had a fractured leg in the 2018 playoffs, but that was kept under wraps and downplayed.
PFT CommenterNBC will bring back 'Waiting All Day for Sunday Night' because of a lawsuit
They're being sued for using that song ['Oh, Sunday Night'] because it's too much of a ripoff of another song. I'm thinking they're going to bring back Waiting All Day for Sunday Night. I think they have to go back to the hits, right?
Big CatCam Newton needs to offer $50,000 for a first-class seat upgrade, not $1,500
Cam Newton offering $1,500 cash to someone sitting in first class on a flight to France. No one ever would do that deal. You have to offer twenty thousand dollars, thirty thousand dollars. Cam Newton is going to make $140 million currently. He has to offer $50,000.
Big CatI hate the Walenda family and their high-wire acts
My other hot seat is the Walendas. I fucking hate those people. I'm so sick of them. It is bullshit that you watch it and you're just hoping [they fall]. And they're on straps and those sisters singing about glory to God the whole time because, you know, really God cares about you being an idiot and walking on a high wire over Times Square.
Interview
Julian EdelmanRob Gronkowski has an 11% chance of returning to the NFL
If I had to guess, this isn't Rob. This is you. Just guessing. I'd say maybe 11% chance [Gronk returns].
Julian EdelmanPlaying for the Patriots is mentally, physically, and emotionally draining
It's mentally, physically and emotionally draining to play for the Patriots. It's not like you have Wednesday, Thursday to kind of get warm. Like we're practicing hard every day. It's tougher for me. Just get out every day and rev up.
Talking Soccer
PFT CommenterThe USWNT vs France matchup is essentially the World Cup Final
But this is, I'm going to call it, this is the World Cup on Friday [France versus U.S.]. Whoever wins this match [wins it all].
