Grant's Rant: 12-11-23 Shame on Mahomes
bonusBad look in my opinion for Patrick Mahomes of the Chiefs. After yesterday's loss to the Bills, he tore into the officials for calling offsides on Kadarius Toney that negated a TD on a trick play. The officials made the correct call. Toney was clearly offsides. Mahomes should blame Toney, not the refs! Bad look by #15 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Kings take on the Suns in Phoenix tonight. Kevin Durant and Grayson Allen are out with injuries and Bradley Beal still isn't back from his injury. Plain and simple there are no excuses for a Kings loss tonight! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
S4 Ep 287Episode 287: Giving Thanks Part V
On today's podcast I continue my series on giving thanks. There are so many great people I've met along the way, way too many to name, but they have all had an impact on me. I talk about the biggest thrill of my career when I announced a Knicks game courtside at MSG with my idol Marv Albert a few feet away. I think that was the first time when I realized that I achieved my dream of being an announcer. I talk about being around Bill Russell and Willis Reed when they coached the Kings. That was an incredible experience for me. I also discuss some of the biggest jerks I've been around such as Barry Bonds and Reggie Jackson. I then discuss some athletes who have changed because of their fame such as Aaron Rodgers. All in all, the vast majority of people I've met in this business are quality individuals.

Grant's Rant: 12-7-23 Classless Jamal Adams
bonusYou really can't go much lower than Jamal Adams of the Seahawks. He got into it with a reporter from the Jets who posted a video on X showing Adams allowing the go-ahead TD against the Cowboys last Thursday. The reporter put "Yikes" on the post. So what did Adams do? He posted a picture of the reporter's wife with the same comment "Yikes". If you want to go after the reporter who you don't like, fine, but keep his wife out of it!

Grant's Rant: 12-6-23 Rodgers Unloads on Jets
bonusJets QB Aaron Rodgers unloaded on the Jets front office yesterday while appearing on the Pat McAfee Show. Rodgers is very upset at leaks coming from the organization regarding QB Zach Wilson. The Athletic wrote a story citing sources saying Wilson didn't want to risk injury by playing the final few games. It is pretty obvious won't be on the Jets after this season, but Rodgers isn't happy with the reported leaks coming from within the Jets locker-room. Learn more about your ad choices.

S4 Ep 286Episode 286: Giving Thanks Part IV
On today's episode I continue to give thanks for the great things that have happened in my career. I begin talking about my love for hockey and how it led to me calling some Sharks games on TV. One of the games I announced involved Wayne Gretzky and the LA Kings. To this day, that was a great thrill for me. I also talk about working for the Raiders and being their TV announcer for the preseason. I had tremendous experiences including being around the legendary Al Davis. I share some stories of being in Al's presence which often was very nerve-racking, due to his iconic stature. I have been blessed to have so many great experiences in my career.

S4 Ep 285Episode 285: Giving Thanks Part III
On today's episode I reflect back on some of my fondest memories that don't involve the Kings. I start off talking about doing mock play-by-play back in junior high school. All the students would chant my name at class assemblies if the program ran short and I would go on stage and do a game. Doing high school football and basketball games gave me tremendous experiences early in my career as well. This business is about reps. Perhaps the thing I reflect back on the most was working at ESPN Radio back in the late 90's. Going to the ESPN headquarters back in Bristol, Ct was a thrill! The people I met and the friendships that developed from that experience was life changing. I then talk about filling in for the legendary Jim Rome on his show. Those 15 years or so was a tremendous experience! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Grant's Rant: 12-1-23 Sanders SI Sportsperson of the Year????
bonusLet me get this straight....Deion Sanders is SI's 2023 Sportsperson of the Year? Seriously? For what? Corado won 4 games this year and only once in the conference. What a joke!! Overhyped and overrated. That's the story of the 2023 Colardo Buffaloes football team! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Grant's Rant: 11-30-23 Inconsistent Kings
bonusThe Kings were blown out last night at home to the Clippers. For the second night in a row the Kings gave up 72 first half points. The Kings are 10-7, but too many players are having off nights. Last night Fox was the only starter to produce. Where are the rest of the guys? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Grant's Rant: 11-29-23 Warriors Impoding
bonusThanks to Draymond Green the Warriors are imploding. Last night the Kings scored 69 second half points enroute to the big come from behind victory. Green helped the Kings cause with a technical foul in the 3rd quarter and an unforced turnover in the game's final minute. I really don't know why fans root for this guy!

bonusWarriors and Kings in Sactown tonight. Golden St has lost 8 of 11, but will have headcase Draymond Green back after serving his 5-game suspension for choking Minnesota's Rudy Gobert. The Kings are coming off a 4-2 trip but will most likely be without Keegan Murray who is listed as doubtful with a back injury. It should be a dandy! Learn more about your ad choices.

bonusSacramento takes the floor tomorrow after a very impressive 4-2 trip. !0 of the next 11 games are at home beginning with the Warriors tomorrow night. Make no mistake about it this stretch could very well determine the Kings fate in the standings when 82 games are in the books! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

S4 Ep 284Episode 284: Giving Thanks -Part II
On today's episode I continue with my "giving thanks" shows. I reflect on those who paved the way for me to enjoy a career beyond my dreams. I have been truly blessed to call three major sports leagues and countless other events. My career has taken me to ESPN and the Jim Rome Show in addition to my jobs in Sacramento. I begin the episode by talking about the first person who shaped my broadcasting life. Glenn Cerny owned WKIQ radio in Bowling Green, Ohio and he was the first person to accelerate my career. From there it was being in the right place at the right time and knowing people who were decision makers. I've always said this, it doesn't matter how people you know. At the end of the day, you still need to deliver. I am truly thankful for the journey I have been on! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

bonusThe Kings six game winning streak came to a screeching halt last night as they were embarrassed by the Pelicans 129-93. Other than the 1st quarter the Kings were thoroughly outplayed. I'm not going to make too much from just one game, but the Kings better play much better tomorrow in the rematch with the Pelicans! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
S4 Ep 283Episode 283: Giving Thanks Part 1
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you are getting ready for a great holiday weekend. On today's episode I reflect on what I'm thankful for from my experiences with sports. Sports has dominated my life and I share some memories from my early years especially on Thanksgiving Day. Two plays that always stand out to me are Lawrence Taylor's 97 interception return against the Lions in 1982 and Leon Lett's blunder that cost the Cowboys the game against the Dolphins in 1993. I also talk about going full circle with my dad and two sons as it relates to sharing fan experiences. Thank you for your support!!! Happy Thanksgiving! Learn more about your ad choices.

bonusIs there a player in the NBA's Western Conference more valuable than the Kings De'Aaron Fox? I don't think so. Fox has the Kings surging and is averaging 31.9 points per game. When Fox is on the floor the Kings look as good as anyone and when he isn't, it's just the opposite pretty much! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

S4 Ep 282Episode 282: Death of Oakland Sports
Yesterday the MLB owners voted 30-0 to approve the move of the Oakland A's to Las Vegas. This leaves the city with no professional teams. On today's episode I let you listen to some hillites from the great late Bill Kings who was behind the mic for so many great Bay Area moments! If you count the California Golden Seals who played in Oakland from 1967-1976 Oakland has now lost four teams and the chances of pro sports ever coming back to the East Bay are slim! The A's lease expires after next season so they will be at the Coliseum for at least one more season! What a shame to lose all of your teams!

Grant's Rant: 11-17-23 F1 Disaster in Vegas
The F1 is in Vegas for tomorrow's race and thus far things couldn't be much worse. The first practice session was called off after just 9 minutes when Carlos Sainz ran over a loose manhole cover that damaged his car considerably. There are many hotel rooms and tickets available which is shocking! As of now this entire endeavor in Vegas looks like a bad idea! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

bonusNo contest in LA last night as the Kings went wire to wire in their 125-110 win over the Lakers. With DeAaron Fox back for his second straight game from his ankle injury Domantas Sabonis has gone from a good player to a great player. Sabonis had 29 points, 16 rebounds and 7 assists to lead the Kings to their 6th win of the season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Warriors lost to the Timberwolves last night 104-101. In a game in which they were already without Steph Curry, Draymond Green came to the defense of teammate Klay Thompson and was accessed a flagrant two foul which is an ejection and two free throws for the opponent. Same story with Green, the guy just can't control himself! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

S4 Ep 281Episode 281: NFL Contenders & Pretenders
Week 10 of the NFL season is in the books and there are several tight races. On today's episode I discuss the contenders, teams who have a shot to be in the dance and the pretenders, teams with no chance! In the NFC the Eagles are 8-1 but have a daunting schedule coming up including the 49ers at home. That game may very well determine home field advantage in the playoffs. In the AFC there are multiple teams that are feeling pretty good about things right now. Obviously, it starts with the Chiefs, but there are several other teams knocking on the door. It should be a fun final 7 weeks in the NFL! Go to https://www.factormeals.com/grant50 and use code grant50 to get 50% off Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Grant's Rant: 11-14-23 The Bad Bills
When you figure out the Bills would you let me know please? Last night they turned the ball over 4 times, and still had a chance to win. They lost however because they had 12 men on the field on a game winning FG attempt by the Broncos that missed. The second kick didn't miss, and the Bills lost the game 24-22. Inexcusable!
