Do you guys have anything in the way of nominees, other nominees that you think might but won't knock that off as the greatest achievement in our show's history?
Excellent nominees, but lesser nominees than what it is that I'm talking about.
All of them good nominees. None of them as good as getting thousands of people to make a pilgrimage to see a toenail of an old guy, a disgusting toenail of an old guy. Who's the gas bag of the week? Let's find out together. We'll probably know by sound, right? This is not an obscure gas bag of the week.
Can you tell me who's editing that, that there would be a stray sentence at the end of that where he's just teasing to the upcoming draft? Like, who's our editor on this that we can't stop that after grilled cheese?
Grilled cheese sandwich.
Yeah. Exactly. Okay, I appreciate you guys arguing for the merits of that. We need better editing around here.
Behind the bit is something that we have been doing to celebrate our 20-year anniversary around here. And in this case, and we talked about this last week... I don't know if you remember, Tony, your nemesis, Billy Gill, somehow magically beating the Freeze in Atlanta.
The Freeze, a sprinter, a former sprinter, I guess he's still a current sprinter, who is part of the shenanigans during Braves games. They run the entirety of the warning track. It's a hell of a long run. Billy tried to pace himself. This is a good strategy by going slower at the beginning because the way the freeze catches you is he doesn't slow down, you do.
His speed never slows because he's got the stamina for the entire warning track. You, of course, have never run the warning track. You're also afraid because that sounds fast, what's coming from behind. And you have taken inventory of how tired you are and how far that foul pole looks now that you're 40 yards away from it. Let's celebrate together Billy Gill somehow, magically.
Our fastest guy, Billy Gill. He beat Chris Cody in a race. He beat Pablo Torre in a race. He beat Amin in a race. Billy's our fastest guy because he also beat the Freeze.
Did you guys have any reaction to the news that Paige Beckers had joined Unrivaled, the local basketball league that is 10 weeks long? Unrivaled, John Skipper, the CEO of Metal Ark, is one of the investors in that idea. Did you guys have any reaction to the reported details on Paige Beckers signing that deal? Because the details of that deal, as they were reported...
was that she's going to get for one 10-week period, she's signed a three-year contract with Unrivaled, a made-for-television invention that is something that is happening around the schedule of the WNBA, 10 weeks that women have free, that they don't have to go to Russia anymore to make money. The reporting is that she will make more for those 10 weeks initial contract in the NBA.
That's how badly in the WNBA. That's the reason that unrivaled has signed her, but they didn't give any of the actual numbers. They just, somebody reported it that way, that this is a league that is here, that is throwing around serious money, but they didn't give you the dollar amounts. They simply reported it as this will be more money than she gets in her entire career.
The reporting was interesting to me. They didn't actually give the number, though. All of this was a marketing exercise in reporting where every story had that detail. without giving me the amount of money none of the stories had the amount of money that i saw all of the stories had this represents more than she in ten weeks she will make more than she will in four years which made me think
That that was something that Unrivaled was putting out there because it's a favorable thing for Unrivaled to have out there. Come down here, ladies. We have a whole area of a city near the airport in Miami where we're just making televised basketball. We don't need fans to do it. It's all part of trying to grab the TV streaming dollars so that you could flip that league.
when you flip it for real dollars and that's some real money being thrown around where you can edge out the WNBA on something and send out a press release that can say to everybody look how poorly paid they are over there and look at how well we're paying over here.
Instead of going to Russia and being Brittany Griner, they went to Hialeah. You go to Medley. Which... Truck stops in Medley.
It's close. It ain't Russia, but it ain't where I'd put a basketball league. I'm confused by the airport. That we've got essentially a campus. It's a campus and it has all the amenities. It has childcare. It has the ability to, it's basically the bubble. And you could leave the bubble.
There's not, you know, a pandemic going on, but you leave the bubble and there's not an area you want to be in because it's medley. Closest thing is Doral. I mean, there ain't nothing close. There ain't no closest thing. There are airports flying out loudly nearby. But it is a strange place. Hey, where are the best women basketball players in the world? Medley. Is that right?
I cannot explain to you in this part of Miami how strange it is to see a thriving epicenter for future basketball commerce over there near the Pollo Tropical.
