S3 Ep 209Episode 209: Kyrie=NBA Embarrassment

On today's episode I talk about Kyrie Irving of the Nets and his recent stance regarding a film dealing in countless antisemitic tropes. I talk about the NBA's hypocritical statement they released a few days ago and share some personal viewpoints on hate in this world. I always love to use renowned author Mitch Albom and his simple viewpoint' you can't be selective with your noise, not against hate". Unfortunately, too many are selective with their noise against hate. As far as Irving goes, I don't know how anyone can root for the guy! Learn more about your ad choices.

Grant's Rant: 10-31-22 Blame Mark Davis.

bonus

The raiders were embarrassed by the saints yesterday as they were shut out 24-0. I know a lot of people want to blame first year head coach Josh McDaniels and he certainly has earned it, but I have a different take. I blame the owner mark Davis/ He had a good thing going last year when interim coach Rich Bisaccia led the raiders to the playoffs. If aint broke dont fix it! Mark Davis went after the big name and now look at them! Typical move by this owner who has no idea how to run a franchise! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Grant's Rant: 10-28-22 The 0-4 Kings!

bonus

Another game and another loss for the Sacramento Kings. That's 4 straight to open the season. No worries though, Mike Brown is a defensive coach, and the Kings work on D every day in practice. Through four games the Kings are allowing 120.3. per game. They really should rename the team the Sacramento Excuses, because that's all I'm hearing these days. Learn more about your ad choices.

bonus

Keegan Murray of the Kings will make his first NBA start tonight against Memphis. That's fine and dandy, but if the other players don't pick up their game it won't matter. Too many of the key guys such as Harrison Barnes and Domantas Sabonis are playing subpar thru three games. It's time to step up! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Grant's Rant: 10-26-22 Bye Bye Aaron Judge

bonus

The Yankees have a big decision to make regarding Aaron Judge. He will 31 in April and obviously is in high demand. He embodies everything you want in a Yankee but has a post season average of .211 in 44 playoff games. Personally, I wouldn't give him a HUGE deal over a long period of time. Yes, he puts people in the ballpark, but the Yanks are about winning titles. If you pay Judge a ton of money, how are you going to fix the other needs on the club? As hard as it would be to say goodbye to 99 I would do it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

S3 Ep 208Episode 208: The Agony of Being a Kings Fan

The Sacramento Kings have lost their first three games and many of the fans are already jumping off the ship. There are 79 games remaining, correct? I guess that is either good, or bad! On today's episode I read some responses to my rant on the team's poor defense. The season is one week old, and many fans are convinced it is the same 'ole Kings. Defensively, I would agree, but I think the talent level on this team is much better than a season ago. As they say time will tell! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

bonus

The NBA season is one week young, and fans are already talking about the Kings rookie Keegan Murray and ROY. Can we please stop with that nonsense. Can we please at least wait a few months? There is no question the kid is talented, but let the season play out a bit please. Also, based on the first three, or four games, this rookie class looks pretty darn good!

Grant's Rant: 10-24-22 Same 'Ole Kings

bonus

The Kings are off to an 0- 3 start. Once again all we hear about is defense, defense and defense and then the game starts and there is no defense. Last night they allowed 89 points in the first half and lost 130-125 to the Warriors. The talent appears to be better than on last year's team, but the results are the same! There are a lot of games left, but the Kings better be careful, or their season will be over before we get to Thanksgiving! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

bonus

Let me get this straight. The Yankees just lost two games in Houston and struck out 30 times. After last night's loss Yankee skipper Aaron Boone said the open rook killed them on Aaron Judge's fly ball in the 8th. Really? Your team struck out 30 times and you have the nerve to talk about the roof being open? No words! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

S3 Ep 207Episode 207: A Tribute to NBA Ref Tony Brown and Officials Everywhere

We lost a great man yesterday. NBA referee Tony Brown's incredible battle with cancer ended at the age of 55. I got to know Tony pretty well and have been in contact with him as he fought this nasty battle with pancreatic cancer. I share some texts that I had with Tony and officiating in general. I think sometimes we as sports fans forget the men and women officiating our games are human beings too. They aren't perfect and neither are we! Rest in peace Tony! Learn more about your ad choices.

bonus

The Kings lost their opener last night to the Trailblazers in front of a capacity crowd. All I've been hearing about is the "new" Kings defense. Really? You mean allowing 32 points in the first quarter and 30+ points in 3 of the 4 quarters...that new defense? Yes Kings rookie Keegan Murray didn't play, but that was a bad loss! Period!

Yesterday Stepen A. Smith of ESPN once again went with the race card. This time the subject was Tom Brady. Smith accused the media of giving Brady a pass for yelling at his teammates because he is white. Ya just can't make this stuff up!

On today's episode I give you my predictions for the NBA's Western Conference. I discuss the top 8 seeds and have the Dener Nuggets as the top seed, but the Warriors winning the West! As far as the Kings are concerned, I predict they will win 37 and lose 45, with their ceiling at 41-41. I like the depth of their team and go over some of their key players.

On today's episode I preview the eastern Conference of the NBA. I tell you who I like coming out of the east and give you my surprise team. I give my prediction on the team's I feel will be battling it out for the last few spots. I am back on the Milwaukee Bucks bandwagon this season and I feel the mystery team is the Brooklyn Nets for obvious reasons. I have trouble putting my marbles in a basket with Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons. It wasn't exactly a banner off season for Kevin Durant, but at least I know when the ball is tossed in the air he will produce!

bonus

Strange how things work. The Raiders lost a heartbreaker to the Chiefs Monday night and all most people are talking about is what happened after the game when Davante Adams shoved a cameraman to the ground while exiting the field. Does anyone want to talk about how the raiders allowed Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce to roam free inside the Red Zone, or Josh McDaniel's bizarre two-point conversion attempt with over four minutes left in the game? Nope...let's talk about what happened after the game. Strange society we live in! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On today's episode i talk about the NFL's Social messaging on the field and on back of helmets. Personally, it bothers me. I don't care for it. I have been very consistent about this for a long time. I read an excerpt from the NY Post that Phil Mushnick wrote about NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and his absurd messaging regarding this topic. I also discuss apologies in sports and how those like Draymond Green wouldn't have to apologize so much if they stopped doing stupid stuff! Learn more about your ad choices.

Grant's Rant: 10-11-22 Another Black Eye For NFL

bonus

Another day, another embarrassment for the NFL. This time it was on Monday Night football when referee Carl Cheffers penalized the Chiefs Chris Jones for his sack and fumble recovery on Derek Carr. Ater the game, Cheffers said he was following the rule book. Translation: that is how the league wants us to call roughing the passer. How about some common sense? The league needs to make all roughing the passer flags automatically reviewed beginning for Thursday's game. The league cannot continue to allow what happened last night to continue!

Of course, I am still waiting for the league to come out and address Green's use of a racial slur directed at former player and ESPN host Kendrick Perkins. I guess I shouldn't hold my breath, eh?

S3 Ep 203Episode 203: Two Years Later

On today's show I discuss what a week it's been for dialogue regarding "All Lives Matter". On Tuesday's show I read some tweets from Zuby regarding this topic which I found amazing. That night on Fox News, Joe Concha was on the Sean Hannity Show and talked about what happened to me in June 2020. Then yesterday Tucker Carlson of Fox News interviewed Ye West and Ye discussed why he wore shirts with the phrase "White Lives Matter" on them a few days ago in Paris. So, in a span of a few days we have had a lot of talk about this topic. I ask this question....Why should political affiliation have any bearing on the phrase "All Lives Matter"? That makes no sense to me! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

bonus

There was a fight at the Warriors practice yesterday first reported by Shams Charania of The Athletic. According to Shams, Draymond Green punched teammate Jordan Poole after a heated argument. Poole was ok and finished his workout. Reports say the Warriors are thinking about punishing Green for his actions. That's good to know since they did nothing this past off season when Green called ESPN host Kendrick Perkins a racial slur. It should be interesting to see how the "new media" will handle this story!

bonus

What a difference a week makes. Last week the 49ers lost at Denver...fans were all over QB Jimmy Garoppolo. Two nights ago, the Niners destroyed the Rams and are in good shape with Carolina and Atlanta coming up the next two weeks. With that being said can we please stop with the Jimmy G bashing after every 49ers loss? It is getting absurd. Here is the bottom line, he gives the team the best chance to reach the Super Bowl. 49er fans should that in mind! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
