I feel like the next month is going to go by at a snail's pace. This is the worst time of year for NFL fans. And GM’s. Frank Clark of the Chiefs, an important player to their success defensively, was arrested with an Uzi on the front seat of his Lamborghini. Idle hands are the devil’s workshop. Pray one of your favorite players can just go on vacation quietly and then show up and ball out in August.
- I have to hand it to Trae Young, he has led the Atlanta Hawks to heights in these NBA playoffs that I thought were unattainable this season. Guy has great moxie.
- How does ESPN’s Jay Williams NOT know that the Celtics had a black coach in THE 60’s!!
- It’s that type of idiocy as to why the racist narrative connected to Boston is continually perpetuated.
- Free Britney Spears.
- While the politicians in Japan are worried about having the Olympics, fans are more worried that there will be no alcohol sold during the games.
- I think the PGA Tour should put Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau in every group they can. They need to push this WWE type rivalry.
- Did you know the Kraft’s have an analytics company? When J.P. Morgan partners with you, you’re doing something right.
- WWE Monday Night Raw is now the worst wrestling show on television and it’s not even close.
- Is the EURO 2021 still going on? Do the winners go to another tournament? Still don’t understand all this.
- Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred will screw up a one car funeral and blame the family.
- For those who listen to ‘Gresh & Keefe’, yes. I am that picky an eater. FORMER FAT GUY NOTE:I once got stuck in the slide at a Burger King in Wakefield R.I. after eating an ungodly amount of Whoppers on a bet. I won the bet. Fifty bucks if ya need to know.
- If you are an MLB GM and paid good money for a starting pitcher who’s numbers were enhanced by ‘Spider Tack’, are you now entitled to a rebate or refund?
- The CEO of Mayweather productions, Leonard Ellerbe, told me this week that Floyd will never fight a real fight ever again. That podcast is available on the ‘Gresh & Keefe’ page at weei.com.
- The possibility of a new college football playoff structure is exciting, yet I still think those ‘Power 5’ schools will find a way to pork those team every year that we WANT to see get in the tournament that deserve a crack at a big boy.
- Thanks to Rob Bradford for allowing me to spew my B.S. each week.
