John Amaechi

He's a good broadcaster, I'll grant you that. He's the greatest. The GOAT. The GOAT. Okay, I wouldn't know what to compare him with. He's uncomparable. Yeah. Okay, good. No comparison. No comp. Again, he can be really good at something. Most of my Twitter feed at the moment is me arguing that people who are very good at what they do are also terrible people.

So you can be both things at the same time. And to me, I'm always amused by tiny people who like to say that seven-footers are soft, but only when the seven-footer is a continent away. He's in Philly, though. I'll tell John to be into his face. See, everybody says that until they're in the room. So it's interesting to me.

The closest we've got here is the gentleman here who wanted to challenge me to a basketball game and insisted I wouldn't be able to back him down. We've got the court upstairs, by the way. He still wants it. He still wants it.

There's a slight. There's a W. It seems like you're spelling it with. It's a speech impediment. It's temporary. It'll go away. Leave the poor man.

He didn't interrupt. It's just we're so cavalier about, you know, if you sit out to protect yourself and get injured, why don't you just get in and get injured? That's an incredibly cavalier approach to somebody whose entire career and life and livelihood depends on his ability to prolong this. No job should have a body count. No job should leave you unable to function in your old age.

And we've no idea what the impact of these repeated injuries will be on him. I pulled my back playing paddle the other day. It's six weeks ago. And even now, I'm on 2,000 milligrams of some ungodly anti-inflammatory just so I can walk and sit. MARK BLYTH, And you think you can back me down? MARK BLYTH, We've got Tony now. MARK BLYTH, There are difficult jobs, and then there are lightweights.

And you are in that latter category.

It's just annoying. I agree with you. I am on the front end. I've never watched him. I haven't watched him play, frankly. Oh, you'd be so annoyed with him, dude. That thing about if he is flopping on the floor, then there's a legitimate target for the irritation that people have in that action and saying, why haven't you changed that?

But the targeting of the fragility or not of his body as if we can all understand what it is to carry the amount of weight. Have you noticed the number of big guys who just don't make it that long? The number of league players, people I played with who popped their clogs, far earlier than you can imagine. And so...

I'm not that cavalier about the health of people who I know already have shortened blood.

I was definitely considered soft, but it was for all the wrong reasons, right? It was because of the way I talked. The only reason I have a goatee is because my team said, if I'm going to talk this way, I need to have something that at least shows something. I agree. This is part of the problem with, I mean, I'm listening to this and I don't understand the context, right?
