Grant's Rant: 11-25-20 What's Tom Brady's problem? Nov 25, 2020

Show notes

You saw it. Tom Brady left the field after losing the game. Bolted. No handshake with Jared Goff, no acknowledgment to the victorious Dallas Cowboys. Just gone. Did the same thing in Chicago to Nick Foles. That's truly unsportsmanlike conduct. We expect better from the leader of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Oh, the Tampa Bay Brady's I mean. And that's not all today, I have something to say about Shannon Sharpe's ridiculous comments about watermelons being used as a prop. Only 5 more weeks of this crazy 2020. Hope you enjoy, share and subscribe!

Grant's Rant: 11-24-20 He Wentz from bad to worse. Nov 24, 2020

Show notes

You got it. I'm talkin' about Carson Wentz of the Philadelphia Eagles. He's playing awful. Why is he still the quarterback? The team is bad and he may be the worst part of part of it. So Philly, if you want to win, you won't with Wentz. More on my rant today.

Episode 15: Jason Hehir and the making of "The Last Dance". Nov 24, 2020

Show notes

Join me and my good friend , Jason Hehir, 7 time Emmy Award winner for his documentaries including "The Last Dance" with Michael Jordan of the Chicago Bulls, as we talk about his career. You'll hear about the challenges of making a documentary like this, how it came to be the most viewed documentary in ESPN history and what other players had to say. Scotty Pippen, Karl Malone, Isaiah Thomas to name just a few. We also touch on his documentary about the Michigan Wolverines "The Fab Five" and how Chris Webber failed to participate after repeated efforts and even an acceptance to contribute but declined. His former teammates, like Jalen Rose, would love to have him clear the air regarding the incidents that took place while they all played together. This is one fabulous discussion I think you're going to really enjoy. I can certainly tell you I did. I look forward to your comments.

Grant's Rant: 11-23 Hey, Hey Harry Giles. Relax Kings Fans. Nov 23, 2020

Show notes

Look, we all like Harry but the the knees, oh those knees. So he leaves the Sacramento Kings and heads to the Portland Trailblazers. League minimum. What's that tell you? Relax. Disappointing, yes. More in today's rant. Much more!

Episode 14: Kenny Albert shares some history and how to get into sports broadcasting. Nov 20, 2020

Show notes

Yes, I'm talking with that Kenny Albert. Son of Marv Albert and one incredible sports broadcaster. While our stories as kids are very similar, he has clearly gone on to accomplish some things nobody else has done. He's also doing the play-by-play for all four of the major sports concurrently. He loves telling stories and I love hearing them as I think you will too. Pull up a chair and join me as I talk with Kenny Albert today.

Grant's Rant: 11-20-20 December 22 for the NBA season. Better think again. Nov 20, 2020

Show notes

The NBA has stated they're going to open the season on the 22nd of December. Do you really think so? This isn't a bubble, NFL players are getting infected, college games are getting postponed and the country is going back into lock-down. And the NBA knows something we all don't? My bet is it won't be happening in December. More, in today's rant.

Grant's Rant: 11-19-20 Antonio Brown, NFL Wide Receiver and bike thrower. Nov 19, 2020

Show notes

Here we go again. I would rather not have to be ranting on this but is it not predictable? The Miami Herald is reporting on an incident where Antonio Brown, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, or I should say Tampa Bay Bradys, wide receiver had a bike throwing incident a couple of weeks before signing with the team. No police report was filed as the security guard was afraid of retaliation. (Perfectly understood!) The team acknowledges they were aware of it as well. Uh oh. Management catered to Brady's request for Brown. I'll tell you my opinion of this in today's rant.

Grant's Rant: 11-18-20 The NBA Draft: National Stupid Day Nov 18, 2020

Show notes

Seriously, the NBA draft is today. And many reporters and sports news outlets are going to grade the picks and trades. Right? Who the heck knows what some player coming out of college is really going to do? Think of all the A+ grades that were given to players that aren't even distant memories any longer. What happens with these grades 4 years later? How did they really pan out if they were A+ picks? I'll tell you with my examples in today's rant.
