Grant's Rant: 8-4-23 Mushnick's on Target Again

bonus

Phil Mushnick of the NY Post said the Jets interest in free agent running back Dalvin Cook is wrong and pathetic. Tough to argue with that when you look at his resume and current legal situation! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Grant's Rant: 8-2-23 Sabonis Most Overrated???

bonus

The Bleacher Report has the Kings Domantas Sabonis as the most overrated player in the NBA. Really? Yup, Grant Hughes of BR has Sabonis number one in that category. Excuse me while I run down to the court house to get my name changed. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

S3 Ep 260Episode 260: All Lives Matter

On today's episode I discuss the past week after the judge presiding over my lawsuit allowed it to move forward. I begin by talking about Marcos Breton's column about me in yesterday's Sacramento Bee. I discuss the impact of social media on stories like this and what a sad indictment it is for our country! I quote Zuby, a British rapper and podcaster who uses simple common sense to put into perspective All Lives Matter! I talk about how in 2023 there seems to still be debate over ALM and in particular my tweet from May 31, 2020. More than three years later and unfortunately there are still those stuck on this! Sad!

Grant's Rant: 8-1-23

bonus

Last month it was announced that Jeff Van Gundy was out at ESPN and now Mark Jackson is as well. Reports have Doris Burke and Doc Rivers joining Mike Breen to form the top broadcasting team. My question is why? Aren't you trying to save money ESPN? Why have a three-person booth? Basketball isn't conducive to a three-person booth and that is an extra salary!

Grant's Rant: 7-31-23 Really Pat McAfee

bonus

EESPN's Pat McAfee went to social media yesterday and responded to a tweet from co-worker Evan Fox who made fun of the new Michigan State uniforms. McAfee responded "I think Nassar was in on the design team actually". That is Nassar as in Larry Nassar who is currently serving a life sentence for a variety sexual assault and child pornography charges. The former doctor of US Gymnastics and Michigan St was sentenced to 140-360 years for his gross abuse mostly of young women. That's who McAfee uses to make a joke about a uniform? Really?

bonus

I'm already looking forward to Week 5 of the NFL season when the Jets take on the Broncos. Yesterday new Broncos coach Sean Payton ripped to shred former coach and now offensive coordinator for the Jets, Nathaniel Hackett, in an interview with USA Today. Among other things Payton called the work by Hackett and his staff "one of the worst coaching jobs in NFL history". How about that? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

bonus

How about Aaron Rodgers of the Jets. He reworked his deal giving up $35million so the Jets have more salary cap flexibility. His new deal is $75 Mil guaranteed. I am surprised more players don't do this. I mean how much money do you need to live a life of luxury? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Grant's Rant: 7-26-23 NFL QB Tidbits

Brock Purdy passed his physical with the 49ers and is good to go. Jimmy Garoppolo also passed his physical with the Raiders. Isn't it amazing how many people had those situations forecasted incorrectly? Also, Justin Herbert of the Chargers is now the highest paid player in the history of the league at an average of $52.5 million per year. No wonder why there's no money for running backs relatively speaking! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On today's episode I discuss the controversy surrounding the United States Women's Soccer team. Are you rooting for them to win? Are you rooting for them to lose? Do you care? Do their political and social stances on various topics turn you off? I discuss the controversial captain of the team Megan Rapinoe by reading articles from several publications. Regardless how one feels, it is hard to go thru a news cycle without reading, or hearing views on the team as they try to win the World Cup.

NFL training camps are opening thanks goodness and on today's episode I give you my QB tiers. I have Kansas City's Patrick Mahomes at Tier 1 and only him. The reason is simple. All 32 GM's would take him if available. After that I give you my next group beginning with Aaron Rodgers. Yes, he had a poor season, but he is one year removed from being the MVP of the league. He didn't forget how to play QB after one off season. I also have Joe Burrow, Josh Allen and Justin Herbert in Tier 2 with two others knocking on that door. Enjoy the epiosde!

Getting caught by police driving 140 in a 55mph zone is not exactly the best way to begin your NFL career. The rookie first round pick of the Vikings was cited yesterday just after 3am on Interstate 94 outside of St.Paul. 140 in a 55mph zone!!!! Unbelievable! Learn more about your ad choices.

bonus

If you don't believe people will do anything for money, go back and watch the 18th hole of Sunday's celebrity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe. Mardy Fish had the ball on the tee with the lead when some idiot fan screamed during his back swing. Fish hooked his tee shot and ended up making par on the easy par 5 18th at Edgewood. Steph Curry made an eagle on 18 and won the tournament. Why did the fan do that....because he had bet on curry to win the tournament. Awful! Learn more about your ad choices.

Grant's Rant: 7-18-23 NFL RB's Dilema

bonus

Playing running back in the NFL seems to be a detriment these days. The position continues to be devalued and thus teams aren't giving out big contracts to running backs. Yesterday, Tony Pollard of the Cowboys, Josh Jacobs of the Raiders and Saquon Barkley of the Giants were unable to reach agreement on new deals. All three received franchise tags which will pay them $10.9 million for this season. Pollard is the only one of the three that has signed his tag. $10.9 million isn't chopped liver, but look at what QB's are getting paid. Learn more about your ad choices.

S3 Ep 257Episode 257: Disgraceful ESPN

If you want an example of what's wrong with this country, you'd be hard pressed to find a better example than ESPN. During their annual awards show this week they gave the Arthur Ashe Courage award to The US Women's Soccer team for their equal pay pursuit. ESPN then aired a video of former host and now FOX News host Will Cain from 2019. The only problem was ESPN edited the video and left out most of the things that Cain said about this topic as I play back his comments from 2019 on ESPN. Disgraceful! I then read an excerpt from Phil Mushnick's recent column in the NY Post talking about the injustice of ESPN's firing of tennis commentator Doug Adler. I had Doug on Episode 27 and play part of the interview I had with him. The message was quite simple. People in this country continue to turn their heads and remain silent about things that matter. Why isn't there more outrage towards ESPN for deliberately smearing Will Cain in front of a sellout crowd and national TV audience? Enjoy the episode! Learn more about your ad choices.

Kamara was also facing a felony charge, but that has been dropped to his plea deal. The NFL needs to suspend Kamara for s significant period of time in my opinion. Learn more about your ad choices.

S3 Ep 256Episode 256: A Mess at Northwestern!

On today's episode I discuss yesterday's firing on longtime Northwestern Football Coach Pat Fitgerald. Fitzgerald was fired after 11 former and current players brought hazing allegations to the university hierarchy. I start the episode by playing the breaking news from ABC 7 News in Chicago. We also hear from former college and NFL QB Danny Kanell who did not hold back on his thoughts regarding the firing. Is this a case of panicking by the University, or are these allegations true and regardless of whether Fitgerald was aware or not, he still is culpable as the coach? Fitgerald released a statement last night and reaffirmed the investigation's finding that he was unaware of any hazing taking place. You better believe a big lawsuit is coming and it is only a matter of time before more facts come to light involving these allegations with the football program at Northwestern!
