Show notes

This was a lot of fun to review and recall some of the great conversations I had with so many incredible people to help launch the podcast in October. For those who haven't had a chance to listen to every episode, you'll enjoy this. You may even find yourself going back to catch the episode after you hear this show. And this will put the year 2020 behind us. What a year it has been in sports but even more importantly, life in general for so many of us. Here's my heartfelt and sincere wishes to you all, yes, each and every one of you, for a very Happy and Healthy Hew Year. And thank you for listening!

Grant's Rant: 12-31-20 The Sacramento Kings and Marvin Bagley's Social Media. Dec 31, 2020

Show notes

The Sacramento Kings are looking like they're off to a great start. And the game against Denver this week was a great sign. So why does anyone have to question the motives of the coach with one of his up and coming players when he lets him sit in the 4th quarter? Especially if that person posting on social media just might be Marvin Bagley's father. Oh yeah, I have a lot more to say about it in today's rant. C'mon for cryin' out loud.

Grant's Rant: 12-30-20 What did Booger MacFarland of ESPN just say? Dec 30, 2020

Show notes

Here we go again. Dwayne Haskins is looking for a job since he was just released by the Washington Football Team. Yeah. That's what happens when you do stupid things and your team loses. And now, Booger MacFarland of ESPN chimes in relating it to a majority of the African American players trying to build their brand vs build their teams. Uh Oh. Now he has a problem. You know where I'm going with this. Hear my comments on today's rant. They may not be quite what you think.

Grant's Rant 12-29-20: What do the NFC East playoff contenders and Jon Gruden have in common? Dec 29, 2020

Show notes

So here it is. End of the regular season and the pathetic NFC East looks like the final team for the playoffs is going to get in with a losing record of 6 wins/10 losses. And lucky us, we're going to get to watch the awful Washington Football Team and the Pitiful Philadelphia Eagles duke it out for some less than exciting play on Sunday. For nothing. Neither is going anywhere. But it gets worse. Did you know Gruden's $100M is well on track to ensure a losing record over the term? Actually, he's got a terrible record over his last three years with the Raiders. So the common thread? The Division sucks and so do the Raiders. I'll explain more in my rant so listen up.

Episode 25: 2020. What a year it has been. Dec 29, 2020

Show notes

First it started off on the very first day of the year. David Stern, NBA Commissioner passes. A wonderful human being responsible for Sacramento still having the Kings and Golden One Center. Then Kobe. Then the SF 49er's lose a SuperBowl they should have won. Then COVID shuts everything down. Then April with no Masters, no basketball, no baseball. Then May. Tough month for me as my career as I knew it ended. Then the bubble and the Sacramento Kings evaporate. Then Vlade Divac is replaced. And here we are now staring into a new year just days away. How have you made a difference in even just one person's life? Listen in today as we discuss the year behind us and what's in store for both Friday and some glimpse into the future. I need to share how much I appreciate you and your listening to the podcast. It's a huge bright spot for me to be able to stay connected and a part of the sports world. So, thank you!

Grant's Rant: 12-28-20. Russell Westbrook III is tired already? Dec 28, 2020

Show notes

So Russell Westbrook of the Washington Wizards sat it out yesterday against the Orlando Magic. Seriously. Game three. Too tired. Needed rest. And guess what? They lost. C'mon now. I've got an NFL comparison to somebody who really wants to play in George Kittle of the San Francisco 49er's. And Russell is tired. Really???

Grant's Rant: 12-24-20 James Harden's gift to Houston; A postponement of opening night. Dec 24, 2020

Show notes

Thank you, James Harden. Thanks from the team fans. Thanks from the Oklahoma City Thunder and thanks from your teammates. What a gift. A postponement of opening night. Clearly, the league rules weren't meant for you since you've been blatantly violating them for weeks. But now you've cost your team opening night, left fans disappointed they're not getting to watch their home team play and all the while taking no responsibility for your actions. Now that's one helluva Christmas gift to leave with everyone. For me, no thank you.

Grant's Rant: 12-23-20 Let's talk about Dwayne Haskins leadership. Dec 23, 2020

Show notes

I marvel at some of the things we've seen this year but this is one of the most incredible. So Dwayne Haskins has a chance to redeem himself. Comes from third string quarterback for the Washington Football Team and plays a decent game but still loses. Not something to really celebrate, right? I mean you got a second chance to prove yourself and, well, it didn't quite work out. So why not go to a strip club? And leave your mask in the car. The mask the NFL mandates you wear in public. Then party with the ladies who apparently have forgotten to wear more than just their masks. Really?
More in today's rant.
