My Buddy AJ Hoffman posted something on Twitter that I found amusing. Basically, he challenged sports writer Clarence Hill to stop being full of shit. What incentive does anyone have to stop being full of shit? When guys turn down White House visits, do we believe they are doing so for themselves or for fear of social media backlash?

The Rockets lost to the Warriors and their season is more than likely over. They lost because they can't make free throws. It's truly astounding when professional players shoot 63% from the line. Is Jalen Green a star? It's debatable. Ime made a major 4th quarter coaching blunder that I believe cost them mightily. I've got an NBA bet for Tuesday night. Learn more about your ad choices.

What I've learned in my years of doing media is that there is a shocking number people who just don't get sarcasm.

We've got a big Rockets/Warriors game tonight. Can the Rockets bounce back? Can Jalen Green score more than 18.5 points? Can the Rockets score more than 99.5 points?

Les Bowen is a sports writer in Philly. Well, sort of. He used to write for the paper and now writes for some blog. Cool. Anywho, Les is an old, white Liberal. There's nothing really wrong with that. But, Les is not happy with Saquon Barkley because the Eagles Running Back golfed with Donald Trump...GASP. While explaining why Saquon's outing with the President was so egregious, Les did an impressive job of "Whitesplaining" the situation. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The NFL Draft devolved into a weekend long Shedeur Sanders drama. I have no issue with Shedeur or his dad. But, media people and the internet dweebs were out of control. I've never seen anything like it. Of course, the biggest drama of the weekend involved prank phone calls. Yes, somehow prank phone calls have become the worst thing the world has ever seen.

I thought I was done with the Shedeur stuff today. But, I saw a video of someone acting as if Shedeur not being drafted in the first round was some great tragedy and I want to laugh at this. There are certain members of the media who are reading the company line as it relates to Shedeur and it's really hysterical. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Bill Maher had a meeting with Donald Trump and came away thinking that the President was likable. He didn't agree with everything he said, but he found him charming. Larry David feels that meeting with Trump and coming away even remotely impressed is akin to having dinner with Hitler. These people are insane. Learn more about your ad choices.

The movie "Sinners" is out in theaters. I haven't seen it and based on the trailers I'm not positive that it's for me. That said, Hailee Steinfeld is in this motion picture. There is a scene going on around on the internet that makes me want to see this movie. I'd assume Josh Allen had to be jealous when his lady was doing love scenes with Michael B. Jordan.

First off, I go off on a strange tangent about football recruiting websites. Next, we talk about Shedeur. Why wasn't he drafted? I don't know the dude, but I do see things that make me question if he's truly doing this for himself or for his dad. Cam Ward was the #1 pick and he's barely talked about.

"The Conners", a spinoff of "Roseanne" aired its final episode last night. I haven't watched an episode of this show since they booted Roseanne. But, I watched the final episode to see how they wrapped it up. I thought it was kind of cheap and unfair to Roseanne. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Pro Football Talk had a piece this morning about teams wanting to make sure draft picks love football. Part of the concern is that in the NIL era, dudes are getting paid early and aren't as hungry. I think it's a valid concern. I also don't know how you would truly determine if someone truly loves football. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

What did I tell you? I feel like virtually everything I said would happen in Game two actually happened in Game 2. Isn't it kind of amusing that it was Draymond being a toolbox is what kind of led to Jimmy Butler getting knocked out? Do the Warriors have a chance without Jimmy? The Rockets are actually still underdogs in this series. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I read a column from John Mamola from Barrett Media. The gist of this article is that ESPN has allowed its standards to erode in the name of gaining ratings and revenue from Pat McAfee. First off, I appreciate that he actually wrote a media story with an actual point of view. Second, I'll explain why McAfee is just a produce of what ESPN allowed itself to become.

The local Fox Affiliate in St. Louis is garbage. Most local news is terrible. But, this one is special. Over the weekend, the outlet delivered a twitter post wit the headline "Could The Cincinnati Bengals Relocate To St. Louis?". That's a splashy headline.

"God Bless The USA" came on when I was walking Ross. I was enjoying it because it is in fact a banger. It's hokey, but it's a banger. Anywho, I started thinking about the number of people who live in America and seemingly hate it. Do other countries do this? Do other countries self hate has much as America? This is a legit question I have. This leads us to social media. I made a mistake. I commented on an Instagram post. I was then told I was stupid for the entire weekend.

I read a few things about radio that really annoyed me today. Well, I read some stuff and heard some other stuff. First off, my old radio station is adding music I said we needed to add a year ago.

Colorado football is retiring the numbers of Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter. Some folks aren't happy about this.

Lee Corso will retire from ESPN after week 1 of the College Football season. This is something that should have happened a while back, but ESPN has really had to handle this gently. I understand.

It appears that the former Tennessee QB made a major mistake trying to get more cash. Reportedly, he's only getting offers that are well below what he was making at Tennessee.

It's Jackie Robinson Day which means it's time for writers to cut and paste the same story they write every year on this day.

USA Today may be the best when it comes to terrible, clickbait headlines. Eric Dane, star of "Grey's Anatomy" has been diagnosed with ALS.

I've been listening to a podcast called " You Must Remember This" which is about the first century of Hollywood. It's fine.
