Grant's Rant: 5-4-21 The Kings Redemption. May 04, 2021

Show notes

Credit where credit is due. The Sacramento Kings could have given up and waved the white flag after the Utah Jazz spanked 'em hard last week. But they didn't. They stepped up and beat the Lakers at home, then swept the Dallas Mavericks for the season with a win in Dallas. Two big wins on the road. Good for them and it shows, they aren't giving up. It's still about winning and the embarrassment of that 154-105 loss shows they can turn it on. And that's without D'Aaron Fox. So good for them. But there's more today... I have an issue with Luka Doncic and his complaining. Hear it all on today's rant. And again, well done Kings. Well done.

Episode 61: Aaron is whinin' and Lebron is complainin'. Oh C'mon now. May 04, 2021

Show notes

So what is it really? What do you want Aaron? What soured you on the Green Bay Packers and who do you think you are anyway? Fire the GM? Yeah right. Like that's your call. I sure hope it's not. Just go retire and be quiet. And then there's Lebron James with the Lakers mouthing off again after a couple of rough losses. Too bad bud. Yeah, you're slipping into the lower tier of teams for the "play in" to the playoffs. Funny, when you were top seeded and looking good, you had no problem with it. All of a sudden , now you're screamin' about how stupid it is. We're going to talk about that a bit today as well as sharing some comments from Terry Bradshaw about the NFL QB's. We have a lot in common. Let's talk about it all a bit and let me know your thoughts as well.

Grant's Rant: 5-3-21 Forty million and still unhappy? May 03, 2021

Show notes

So what's up with professional athletes today? $20-$30-$40 million dollars a year and they want to leave they're teams? That's not enough? Sports betting is changing the way players decide on their longevity and loyalty to a team, in my opinion. And now, Aaron Rodgers wants out of Green Bay. Really? When is enough enough and when does management at the team level get back in control? Aren't they the ones paying the salaries after all? What do you think? Are you inclined to watch more or less sports today than you did just a few years back? Let me know.

Grant's Rant: 4-30-21 154 to 105, need I say more? Apr 30, 2021

Show notes

Yes, the entire NBA is talking about it and every NBA fan is keenly aware of it. That was the score when the Utah Jazz visited the Sacramento Kings on Wed. What do you call that? It's beyond embarrassing. I call it gutless. The Kings did not come out to play and it showed. Two good things: They've insured their place at the bottom of the league's defenses without a doubt and they've absolutely guaranteed another losing season. Here's the good news that Kings fans can be assured of, like the last 14 years in a row, they can now say it one more time...there's always next year. Do you think the fans in the arena asked for their money back? Hear more on today's podcast.

Episode 60: Lebron James Hypocrisy Apr 29, 2021

Show notes

Why such little heat on Lebron James for his tweet earlier this week about putting a bullseye on the back of a police officer? Why no comment from the NBA? Lebron is a phenom when it comes to the sport of basketball, but he's a destructive force when it comes to social issues. Could his 50 million followers make an impact if he asked? Could he help rather than deter? Could the African American community benefit from his endorsement? Hear my opinion and observation of his hypocrisy in today's podcast.

Grant's Rant: 4-29-21 Draft day grading, why? Apr 29, 2021

Show notes

The big day is finally here and we're going to be inundated with all the drafts and picks from the various teams. Sure, it's going to be interesting. And entertaining. And in some ways completely stupid. Teams and picks are going to get "graded". That's right. Like in grammar school. Let's call it old school. Just look at teams and picks that got high "grades" last year and see what that meant for them as the season wore on. Not so much. Right? How about 2018 "grades" for the Jets and the Cardinals? A's and A+'s. Hey, I'm not kidding. Sam Darnold and Josh Rosen. A's. As in really good grades. And where are they now? How did that work out. So what about those "grades". Retro-"grades" F. Let's talk about it on today's rant.

Grant's Rant: 4-28-21 Rooting for a bad team has its' consequences. Apr 27, 2021

Show notes

Yes, I'm talking to you, Kings fans. The team gets you excited when they win a few in a row, then they disappoint you by loosing a few in a row and the roller coaster of emotion goes on through the season until it's just about over. When you want the team to win, they lose. And now when you want the team to lose, they win themselves right out of a good draft pick. There's a little more to it all than that and I'll share my thoughts on it in Today's rant.

Grant's Rant: 4-27-21 Enjoy the NFL draft and chill on those picks. Apr 27, 2021

Show notes

OK, it's a big day Thursday no matter which team you favor. But remember, no matter who your team picks, especially if it's a team called the Forty Niners and no matter which QB they decide on, my bet is Mack Jones but that's beside the point, it's going to take time. Don't expect a hero in the first season. Don't go gettin' all fired up because it wasn't your guy. Just enjoy the process, get excited and let's see where it all settles out. And remember, getting a young QB into the system takes time. Might even take a year. So lighten up a bit and let's see where it all goes.

Grant's Rant: 4-26-21 The NY Knicks defense and the Atlanta Hawks insanity... Apr 26, 2021

Show notes

You read that right. The Knicks have won 9 in a row and are now 4th in the division and lead the league in least points allowed per game. What about the Sacramento Kings you ask? Last in the league with points allowed per game. As in no defense. But hey, the analytics guys will get it figured out. Not a problem. And then there's those "Insane" Atlanta Hawks. Since that Rick Carlisle dubbed "insane" move to make a coaching change, the Hawks have gone 19-7. I'll bet you Kings fans would love to have a little bit of that insanity, wouldn't you? And now the Hawks are ranked 5th in the division. That's not to mention it's all with a little help from a player by the name of Bogdan Bogdanovich. Oh yeah. That guy. From what team??? You guessed it, the Sacramento Kings. Hear what I've got to say about it all on today's rant.
