Why did Anthony Edwards miss the starting lineup?

Boomer Esiason 0:00
Uncomfortable is a good place to start. Okay. We'll start in the NBA. Now, the Knicks played tonight. They were off last night. But in Dallas, you had T-Wolves Mavericks. He's looking to drive the basketball. Sure. Two-man game. And it's in the cup with a flush. Right back at you, Coop. Ironically, he calls it the flush, the dunk, all of that. Anthony Edwards, 17, off the bench. So the big thing on social media yesterday, and if you tuned in in Dallas or in, of course, Minnesota, where is Anthony Edwards? He was supposed to be in the starting lineup, but yet he wasn't there. Mike Connolly started in place of him. He was, as he told reporters and was asked afterwards if everything was okay.
Anthony Edwards 0:41
What happened to you for the first meeting of the game?
Boomer Esiason 0:43
I was taking a s***.
Anthony Edwards 0:45
Oh. Yeah. But, yeah, like I said, Mike held it down for me.
Boomer Esiason 0:50
Simple as that. That's very direct. The amazing thing about the Timberwolves is that after the trade... God love you, Boomer. You're going to give me a serious Timberwolves take right now after Anthony Edwards just said, I'm taking a dump, and that's why I missed. Yeah, because I'll tell you why. Because I think the Knicks have been taking the same thing because both of them have essentially the same record after the trade. Nothing's changed. Wow. You know, I'm surprised more guys don't have to dupe during games. I've always said this about Andy Reid. You tell me all that time that he was on the sideline, he's never had to take a dump during a game. Big guy like that. It can happen at any time. I would say that he probably does it before the game because pregame meal is four hours before game time.
Boomer Esiason 1:37
Yeah, he's got to be on a metamucil situation or something like that, too. And he's got a nice private office with a nice private bathroom in the head coach's office at the stadium. Yeah, so this was probably like a multiple poop situation for Anthony Edwards because there's no way this was just like a regular... I got this poop. I would think he probably ate something that didn't agree with him.
Unknown 1:58
Yeah.
Boomer Esiason 1:59
He had to run in. Right, right, right. Huge poopy. It does happen. But good for him for being completely honest, letting everybody know. Oh, he was honest all right. Mike held it down for me. Meantime.

What was the outcome of the Phillies vs. Nationals game?

Boomer Esiason 2:11
Maple Leafs-Ducks. Now, why would I bring this up? So you have, if you go back to March 12th, you've got the injury to Austin Matthews that knocked him out for the season. It was a knee-to-knee contact from Radko Gudis, who was given a five-game suspension for that. Now, Gudis has been missing time due to an upper body injury, yet wanted to play last night, and this is why, as this is how the game began.
Hunter Brody 2:35
And the clubs come off. It's going to be Domi and Dubas. So just one fight. And Max Domi, in defense of the captain, is teeing off. Is he ever. And Max Domi gets more than a measure.
Boomer Esiason 2:56
And that was Maple Leafs TV with the call there. So this goes into the game. This isn't postgame. This is into the game. So as I mentioned, he hasn't played, but he basically forced his way into the lineup and was asked if he expects it to be a chippy game.
Unknown 3:11
Are you expecting some fireworks tonight? I mean, do you anticipate it? And is that one of the reasons to get in there and kind of? Yeah, I think it's going to be an intense game. Yeah, one of the reasons why I wanted to play.
Boomer Esiason 3:23
All right, so that's one of the reasons. You heard him say address things. He's got to score major points in the locker room, too, for doing stuff like this. I think he does, but he's the guy that went knee-on-knee with Dawson Matthews, so this is obviously a contribution from Ty Domi. This is like, what's his name, Ratnan, did not play against the Islanders. Right, but he did play here and then taking accountability.
Unknown 3:44
It's part of the two that not only you want to play, but that if you're not in there, you don't want your teammates to be susceptible to any retribution. Exactly. That's another thing. I'm standing behind my own mistakes. I'm going to address it myself.
Boomer Esiason 3:58
Address it himself. And he did, and so they got that over with. I've written rules in the NHL, man.
