Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, sure.

Speaker 2:

Sure, thank you. You told me on Friday that you had 7.30 on a Sunday. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Speaker 1:

Does that stop you from drinking? No it did not.

Speaker 2:

Oh, Look, you know, it stopped me from drinking. Yeah.

Speaker 1:

I feel you Drinking now.

Speaker 2:

Mm-hmm.

Speaker 1:

Drinking now.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but you know I have a leak in my ceiling From my water heater and, yeah, you can smell the chemicals that come through it to make it have whatever else happens with it coming through. So you got rust, you got the sulfur, you have one other thing that's coming out of it, so you can smell it, hey everybody, welcome to another episode of the Accordion West podcast.

Speaker 1:

The law broke his house.

Speaker 2:

I didn't break my house, but I don't got money to fix it either.

Speaker 1:

The law broke his house. What's the? What's the? Okay, so you haven't water issue, no, no, no, you haven't water heater issue, it's leaking. What are you using this top level leaking so, boom, so yeah what is the? What is the manufacturer's date on the water year?

Speaker 2:

Um a long time ago.

Speaker 1:

Don't say 20 years ago, man.

Speaker 2:

Well, you know, you know we got this house is 15 years old, so I'm assuming this water heater hasn't been changed since then.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's about time.

Speaker 2:

And I know what my wife was saying was she was like you know, you know when you give people, when you get houses, sometimes, sometimes you got to think about how you know how, how quickly they trying to get out of house, because they might have been dealing with this issue for a while and not one actually repair, replace or fix the water heater. So instead of putting the money into it, you know you spruce it up enough so that it looks nice enough to sell.

Speaker 1:

I get that aspect and I'm not gonna say I would never do that. However, it's just a shitty thing to do. If you already know something's bad, that's that's. That's kind of different. If I don't know nothing's bad, then I'm trying to sell this motherfucker house. If I know something's bad, I'm going to feel bad trying to sell a house and I know that water heater been fucking up you know what I mean or the furnace been fucking up, like I'm literally. I'm me personally I'm literally going to feel bad.

Speaker 2:

So I mean, I mean, mind you, that's how my you know, that's how my wife feels, and I kind of feel the same way too, because there was a leak in a closet that looks like it's coming directly from our bathroom shower, like it's almost like, let's say, the water is going down. It's a leak that's coming down and now you can look up in that closet and see at any given time it could literally just be like man, fuck it, I'm done, and come through. And now you got mold and water coming through and she's like we need to sell. So I was like well, and I told her, I said well, look at it from my perspective.

Speaker 1:

She said I need to sell the house.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I was like well, and I told her I said, look look at it from my perspective. If we sell the house, okay the way it is, and let's say this house is worth 260,000. Okay, what if we stayed, we put together some stuff to get some of this stuff fixed and then sell it. Because, and I thought I said, and I thought I said think about it, like when we went to the place around the corner they had just installed a new furnace, new water heater, new housing unit. On the outside that house sold for 265 and a market that the houses in here were selling for 245. So you got to think of it.

Speaker 1:

In a month, but I don't think they price stuff like that into the value of the house. They don't really price appliances in there like that.

Speaker 2:

Well, your water heater, your housing unit and your furnace. From what we saw Because ours was older but based you know from what, the house that we were, the place that we were staying at before we moved here that's a $20,000 difference in pricing and it wasn't that the house is at $20,000 price and difference, when the water heater is like $600 and a fucking condenser is like, let's just say, the outside.

Speaker 1:

You saw the outside of AC pump or whatever.

Speaker 2:

That's like three. The whole unit was new, from the furnace to the water heater, to the outside.

Speaker 1:

That's five, because I did that when I got this house. That's five six. How the fuck is that $20,000 difference?

Speaker 2:

It was a $20,000 difference. Look, I was like yo we could.

Speaker 1:

I'm in the wrong business. I'm in the wrong business because this clearly, this shit right next to me clearly calls me like five, six style. And then the water heater was like six.

Speaker 2:

Because that's what I was like. Wait, we brought this for two, no matter what, this wasn't even $245. This was like $240. All right, and so when we saw how much the other house went for, it went for $262.65.

Speaker 1:

I'm like that's a $20,000 difference Because of new appliances, new appliances.

Speaker 2:

That's the only thing we could chop it up to, because these houses are the same. These houses are.

Speaker 1:

I'm not saying it's not true, I just I find it hard to believe.

Speaker 2:

Because when we brought this we had an old ass oven, old ass refrigerator, old ass housing unit for the heating, ac furnace, water heater, wash-ins dryer. It went for $240.

Speaker 1:

Yo, but all that's like 10. Let's just say you take out a loan $10,000, you buy and get all that shit done. That's not worth $20,000.

Speaker 2:

Hey look, when we left there okay, we left the other place it still had the new what do you call it? The new washer and dryer, dishwasher, refrigerator, housing unit, everything else, and it went for $20,000 more. I'm like, oh love. And so I told my wife, I said, well, we got to think about this in the grand scheme of it of we may or may not have to replace that because we don't have a down payment to do what we need to do now. So if we put the money into it now, we may or may not be able to move on to something and get more money for it in place. You know what I'm saying. All right.

Speaker 1:

So I'm my two cents. I am going to disagree with your wife but also agree with your wife, but disagree with you but also agree. I said that in a weird way, I've been drinking too. So the only reason why I will replace the stuff is because once I replace it, if something was to happen, I can always go to my own and be like yo, I got this shit three years ago. Give me the maximum money I can get for this shit, rather than 15 years or 20 years, and they'd be like here's $200 towards it. So that's the reason I would replace it not to sell, but because I don't really think me personally. I know you said you think it's because of the appliances, that shit like that, but yeah, so I would do it, for I would do it for that reason, if I'm gonna stay, but in order to like a me replacing stuff To sell, I'm not doing that. And with that issue happening and me one, this, I'm not gonna sell because that issues happening too. That's just me.

Speaker 1:

Right Is that a low rate, don't Exactly. Don't jump out there and still at a seven you will be wishing y'all paid for your minds will just pay for the. You know to fix the shit, because the interest in the next couple years come on now.

Speaker 2:

It'll go down and that's what.

Speaker 1:

No, the interest is, let's just say you had a seven. You pay interest at a seven For mortgage. You're gonna miles with just by the fucking appliances to keep you three right. That's what I'm saying, that's why I kind of agree with this and that's what I mean.

Speaker 2:

That's what I was saying. I was like you know, if we fix it up now, you know saying we ain't got worry about it later. And then, when we're ready to sell, you know saying you know it's something different, we can sell. You know, and I thought I said we're gonna have to sell when it's you know, a market where people actually want to buy a house and they can get those Entries rates and we can make sure we get a low.

Speaker 2:

Even y'all spot right, yeah, so, and that was a thing that we and I was like yeah, so we're on the same page, but you know we're. You know, with stuff like this, that happens, you know when it, when it comes to men and women.

Speaker 1:

Yo, my wife quick to be like so does my fucker all the time too, all the time. But what is outside? We can just move. I'm like you gonna help me pay? I paid a mortgage. I'm like you go help you, well, paid twenty twenty five hundred dollars. She's like no, I'm like exactly, I don't even want paid twenty five hundred. Well, you know to, you know I don't want to do that on my. She don't even want help do this shit, not in the mean way, but just kind of like still more money coming out of your pocket. So it's just like Like you want to go from having to help not do not pay this shit to having to help me. I know you're not gonna want you got you like yeah, you're right, I'm like yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and I think I think part of it. You know, like, like they always say women are reactive versus thinking of like solutions for shit it's. It's a little different. So you know it's like oh no, we need to get out of him because For them they ain't trying to put the money into like fix shit up. They're not. You know, that's not their thing, you know.

Speaker 1:

It's barely my thing, but it's one of those. It's also one of those things it was like but we're a lot more practical. It wasn't not see that, yeah, yeah and we're not.

Speaker 1:

We're not being reactive about it true that how should do fill a certain type of way, though, because you she's also probably looking at it like I am like I would. I don't want to be stuck with something, what I could have got out of it, and now I'm up to Greek without a paddle. She's probably looking at it like that too, because I looked at certain situations like that, but I had to do my research and be like, okay, it can be fixed. And that was just them like, if I'm not ready to leave, it could be fixed. On a fix this shit. Yeah, situation Sucks right now, but yeah, that shit could be fixed.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it can be fixed. I mean, we're gonna lose value in a home based on that, the fact they're gonna have to cut through the ceiling and it's not gonna match.

Speaker 1:

You're not going, you're not gonna lose value on your own because you're getting a repair.

Speaker 2:

Right.

Speaker 1:

What's not gonna match, talk, talk which is almost not gonna.

Speaker 2:

Artisan on our roof so it looks like somebody like took like a sponge and like and whatever with it, you can get.

Speaker 1:

You can get plaster to come back in and do that man. Yeah, we can do that.

Speaker 2:

I'm just saying like right now, and like we were to invest in living and moving, so don't worry about the vibe.

Speaker 1:

You only worry about this is when we are selling. That's when you like all right, let's Put everything away and make it nice and shit like that, right as the only. That's the only time when he were about that and plaster and don't really, I don't sell, it, don't really cost a lot of money. But we hear these things and we think it costs thousands of thousands of dollars for people to do and it don't, it really don't, don't, don't, uh.

Speaker 2:

No worry about it.

Speaker 1:

But, um, no, think about it, don't worry about it. Right, you didn't back yet. I mean about your mind, whatever I Ever that's said. Oh, yeah, man, trust it. Trust to believe I don't want to do a lot of shit with this house, got the. You know, I told you kitchen renovated, stuff renovated, found problems, found issues, all that good shit. I just kind of move the the right way and that's what's making it so often be the leaders, motherfucker like I'm not. And just my mortgage is lowest, fuck, I don't want to go. I don't want to go to be spending like two thousand plus on a. You know, I mean, I'm pretty sure y'all don't either. No, we don't know, you know. But yeah, yeah, adults, yeah, I know this shit, yeah, I know this shit.

Speaker 1:

But yeah, my mom, my mom said my mom called me yesterday. Right, she was like she was about to start my part time. She was like, um, she was like you got five thousand dollars. I'm like what? She's like do you got five thousand dollars? I was like what is this for? She's like yes or no? I'm like yeah. She's like, okay, I see some land for sale. Blah, blah, blah, blah. I mean, we talk about this shit. All the time she was like I'm a senior. She said I'm not. She said that's what sale I think you need to. I've won it. I'm like send it to me. So she sends it to me and show like that I'm doing my research, I should. I call her back and I'm like. I was like mama, did you look at this? All the way through. She was like yeah.

Speaker 1:

I was like well, it's an auction, we, it's, the bid is starting off at 10. The auction was over with it the December the 7th. I was like it's the knife. She's like damn, I'm like yeah, she's, I ain't see that. I was like would you see that? And she not sold her whatever.

Speaker 1:

And then I started thinking because I was really about to pull the trigger fine, you know, I'm like shit, we about to get this a couple acres for 10, and it's already around other stuff. So it's just kind of like we know the sewer and you know electric is there just got to be ran up to wherever the house, what the house is gonna be, because it's probably gonna be, you know, one big house, one. You know whatever the monitor side or whatever. I have you right. So and then I thought about. I'm like Yo. Your mom already runs you ragged. Could you really share the land with her? She walk her across the way to anger, or anger. Just to be like yo, I need you to come over here and do this and this and this and essence of acres just a football field.

Speaker 2:

So listen.

Speaker 1:

This was a couple acres, depending on how we was gonna have our shit. I don't know, because I've always told my mom why what we thought about this, like if I was to do it Because I do plan on doing this just that Shit be hard to get, or the price for lamb y'all rages for like certain things or whatever in certain areas. But I always told myself, if I can do it, if and when I can do it, I have like one house, like not the big house, but you know, just a house, this house. My mom will have a room in that house, but I also have a big house.

Speaker 1:

I mean, hey, I know sleeve owner, but you get what I mean, the estate house, and then there'll be the guest house, my mama the guest house and the guest house of probably be whatever she wanted to be like, if it's like 800 square feet and that's just for her to be alone, but she's still got a room and the main house or whatever. That's how I would want it and I want my D-touch three car garage and blah, blah, blah. You know, grant, grant, that bottle style, but let's be there. And I already got cars the feeling motherfuckers, but I was like man, I don't know if I could do that shit. I'm not aware, not right now, because she's gonna want to put it like a little Situation on, like a tiny home on it, off the rip right, that's my mom said too.

Speaker 2:

She was like you know, I don't want you to put me in a home home. Just, you know, build a little, a little, a guest suite On your property and go from there and, and you know, slapping my food underneath the.

Speaker 1:

No no.

Speaker 2:

Like, just bring me some food and Just slide it underneath the door and just make a little slit, slit in the door or whatever so that you can slide my food. And and I was like mom, we would not do that to you like I Was. I was very confused about her request because I'm like you think I'm that horrible of a son that I was just do that to you.

Speaker 1:

Yo, we know your mom's staying with one of your sisters.

Speaker 2:

Well, it would be my sister, but you know Is one on me and I Two sisters. I do have two sisters, but my oldest sister is my father's kid. Oh, I got you. My mom only had, my mom only has me and my sister, my youngest sister, yeah, I got you my father has my older brother and my two older sisters. I Hold on.

Speaker 1:

Okay, I'm all confused.

Speaker 2:

Yes, I have three sisters and a brother.

Speaker 1:

No, no, no, I know that part. So I always thought, with your mom and your stepdad living with you, there was two sisters, oh, one sister.

Speaker 2:

It's one sister, okay, and that's my stepfather's kid. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, so yeah.

Speaker 1:

I got you. I got you. Yeah, that is a strange request. I'll be wrong if I had the money. I'm definitely doing that. The thing is it's the age and what when I would do it. If I were for my mom right now. I couldn't see myself doing it because she's still a little bit too active. It's too much shit that she can get me to be doing. You know what I mean Now, like, like she retired and like 60. So you know, man, she, she, she chilling, she going on her bus trips and shit like that, and I'm not doing too much gardening and shit like that. Like the other day, I tell you this shit the other day. Stay doing this shit.

Speaker 1:

She, she asked me she got a new fence or whatever. She asked me something about something. I'm not against the details of that. I'm like, yeah, this is what it is. It's not at Home Depot or it is at Home Depot you can. I don't know if you get this which you can cut it with, because it's like steel.

Speaker 1:

So I'm thinking we not going to Home Depot. She asked me to go. I'm like we can order it online from Amazon. She's like nah, I still want to go. I'm like I don't know why we going and you don't have anything to cut, this still with, like, we ain't got no, you know what, do you call it A welding gun or anything like that. So, anyway, she's like, yeah, I'll be there to pick you up a. And I'm warning her. I'm like, all right, I got to work at 10, even though it's just me coming downstairs to turn on the computer and shit. So it's getting like 815. She's still not here. I'm calling her. I'm like yo, where are you? Blah, blah, blah. This is now coming, coming, coming, he comes. I'm still don't know why. We going to Home Depot. We go to Home Depot. We check out the thing that I told her that she would not be able to cut. She looks at it and it's like, yeah, I'm not going to be able to cut this. I'm like yeah.

Speaker 1:

I'm like the trick bag is coming. I'm like, yeah, I know, blah, blah, blah. And then she starts trying to help her brainstorm and me and come up with a plan to make something. And she was like, yeah, I need some dirt. Let's go over to the garden section. It was raining like shit. 10 bags of dirt. Dirt fucked up all my clothes that I had on. 10 bags of it's like shit, like that. 10 bags of dirt. And it's just like I'll be like every time I be doing shit like this I'll be like yo, I got a whole nother.

Speaker 2:

That's how you know you. My mother loves you.

Speaker 1:

No, no, I hope she loves me.

Speaker 1:

But now the thing is I am easily accessible and that's what the fuck she likes. My other brother, my youngest brother, is not easily easily accessible. He likes the fact that I'm easily accessible and I can get her. That's all it is. But this is like tasks out the task, out the task, out the task. And one day she tells me she was like I hope you don't think that every time I contact you it's not it's a, that it's not it's a for you to do something. I feel that way when you don't respond or call back when I call and in my head I'm like because every time you fucking text or call me, it's literally to do something.

Speaker 2:

Right.

Speaker 1:

It's how to doing shit in my house and in your house. I'm like yo, like I said on this podcast before lady need a husband Because one of her old booze, that the one that got away, type shit.

Speaker 2:

You know what I'm saying and see what's going on with him. You know, back in the day, them niggas, they, they, they. You know they hose back in the day. So the niggas probably ain't settled down yet.

Speaker 1:

Listen, I don't know she need us, she doesn't. But no man, I couldn't. I could stay on the property where I'm not not, not at that, not, not, not at this age, not what she still be wanting to garden and fucking grow fucking squash and shit like that. So now answers no. Could you live on like a couple of ways with your family. Yeah, Both sides of the family, yeah, yeah. Why you look the serious wife of us.

Speaker 2:

I can. What I want to is a different story.

Speaker 1:

Would you want to?

Speaker 2:

No, not at all. Not at all. I would only want to live on property with me and my family. You're in immediate or your people who live in here with me now.

Speaker 1:

The three because I forgot, I'm sorry, the four of us.

Speaker 2:

That's including the cat. You know, I'm saying.

Speaker 1:

True, true, true, true, true. No, me personally, I think I could do it. I don't see nothing wrong with it. Um then, I will not live in my house, though, but if we had to land like shit, why not? I wouldn't mind walking to a song. So it's also this you know, today we doing dinner here, that's because my wife's family cool, like they do shit that me and my family don't do, like, uh, play video games together and blah, blah, blah, and you know, nice show family, nice show family. I think I could do it. I think I could do it. So, man, your Pacers and season tournament.

Speaker 2:

You know, I thought we were going to go to you. You didn't think that I did.

Speaker 1:

I really thought we were. You did not think that LeBron is on steroids. You thought that.

Speaker 2:

I did. I really thought we would take it.

Speaker 1:

Allegedly and not allegedly. I know he not. I don't know he's not on steroids, I'm just fucking making the joke. He was bullying the motherfuckers, that game.

Speaker 2:

It was just a matchup that particular time.

Speaker 1:

I felt like he was bullying them.

Speaker 2:

I mean, I mean, it wasn't even him that was bullying anybody. It was fucking a B who had 41 and 20. Yeah right, there's no way that you give. You're not going to be the team, unless somebody dropped 41 and get 20 boys there, ain't no?

Speaker 1:

way that's happening, yo. When I saw that, uh, he got hurt, I was like I know this nigga legs ain't fucked up again. I'm like what is going on in the meat? It's like yo. I did not think the Pacers was gonna win just because it was LeBron and that's the only reason why.

Speaker 2:

I mean, it was our first time facing LeBron and Co this season. You know what I'm saying, so I'm not too surprised. But you know, it's one of the things where it's like, you know, I wish we would have won, but it is what it is, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it was good, though what do you think? Is this something that you can look forward to every year now, or Well, you know, the end season tournament.

Speaker 2:

I'm not opposed to it. I'm not opposed to the end season tournament. I missed that again. I'm not opposed to the end season tournament, mostly because it still goes to your record, so, except for the championship game. So you only get put 80 games on your schedule and then you make up the other two games. You know what I'm saying. So, or you make up the other two games, so you really, you know, if you're a good enough team, you don't need playing 83 games. Okay, which means you're not playing in the play-in tournament. No, nothing, you know what I'm saying. It's just you, just, yeah, you play whatever you had to play.

Speaker 2:

So if you go all the way to the finals, like the league is there, the league is don't, if the league is to get anything better than six or seven I mean anything better than seven then they will, they'll get their, they'll be all right, and they would only play 83 games that season.

Speaker 2:

So they I mean they, I think they on purpose put 82 games on the schedule, 80 games on the schedule. Well, now, everyone else is just gonna make up those two games, pretty much. So so I don't, I don't have an issue with it. I like, I like the courts that came with it, yeah, and even though everyone, you know it, it wasn't like it was something like oh yeah, it's in season tournament and it made it a big, big deal, it was still a regular season game, you know what I'm saying. So I think that's what made it. That's what made a whole lot better to watch, because you knew those stats were going to everything else, so they weren't just playing hard just to like not be recognized for being the blocks leader. You know what I'm?

Speaker 1:

saying yeah. Speaking of the courts, the the the one thing I can't wait for is for like it's a. I know the NBA is still kind of working with a VR partner, but the moment they get a partner for VR and being on those courts and they ask them extra shit in VR, man, I'm going to love that shit. I'm going to love that shit. It's going to be like I don't know futuristic and shit. I like it, I like it. Apparently, this is how you know don't watch too much, too many Feeble games and stuff like that. But this is how some of their courts are anyway, when they do certain things, how they got the crowd. It's all dark in the crowd and stuff like that and you can't see it.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, how they did with the, how they did with the end season tournament, yeah, like cause. I was like why is it so dark?

Speaker 1:

You know, my wife, my wife, if you said the same thing, she was like is anybody there? I was like, nah, they there. I was like they there. But yeah, man, it was dope. And then the fact that there is no home advantage, so you have it in Vegas. It's not really too many cheers, it's just kind of like yo, they both, not my team, or if you really dedicated to that team, you go out there in the middle of fucking December.

Speaker 2:

Right and see what happens. We had a lot of celebrities out there. They were out there to support. I ain't seen uh it was a lot of celebrities out there for that one.

Speaker 1:

I'm trying to remember.

Speaker 2:

What a follow.

Speaker 1:

Did you confirm? Did you remember I was texting you? I was like Gary Payton with fucking a Vivagay Fox. Did you see anything about that?

Speaker 2:

No, I didn't see nothing about that. I don't think he was there with her.

Speaker 1:

They were sitting beside each other.

Speaker 2:

I don't know if that was her.

Speaker 1:

That was her. It was, I know, vivagay Strong. We talk about a damn thing every couple months. You talk about every every couple months.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, cause he did gain some weight.

Speaker 1:

It was her, it was her. But, man, this is when Twitter would be popping and shit. You can get on Twitter and be like yo, blah, blah, blah. I ain't see shit about the uh and season joint, like it wasn't trending or nothing, and I think that's only because I think the NBA pulled this shit from uh, from Twitter and shit, so it was like you ain't gonna see those.

Speaker 1:

You know, you ever been on Twitter to be like hashtag and hashtag, hashtag, championship game or something like that? Yeah, I missed that shit. I checked just to see if anything was popping. I might have checked too early. If it was something popping, I don't know. I went on threads Say who do you think are winning the game from NBA's uh threat situation? And of course, I said the Lakers. Even a Smith on the low, looking like the Joker said the Lakers as well. And uh, yeah, man, I can't wait for the VR situation to happen. Party next year, because the season has already started. But that'll be the moment I actually pick up a VR thing and that's what I'll be paying for my uh, what is it called? I'll get that shit on VR, all in VR.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, man, it was. Uh, it was fucking interesting. Uh, I fell asleep at the third quarter, woke up and just to check to see who won, that's been doing nowadays Policy with the third quarter.

Speaker 2:

That's grown man Shit right there.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, especially when you work at two fucking jobs Especially working two jobs and you be drinking on one. Um, it's like nah, but nah for real man. I had that recipe meatloaf, mashed potatoes and the rest of that. I was struggling. That rest of that could cockshit up, baby. I was struggling like shit. I was like I don't know how long I'm a last watching this motherfucker, me and the cat Sweet.

Speaker 2:

All I was doing was, um, like when you, when I was watching the game right there, I was like, all right, I think we lost. I just started, uh, building my center. Bill for two.

Speaker 1:

He's like I need some type of good action. I'm like, come on.

Speaker 2:

So now I built this center bill and I was like, well, I need to text the people who I know are centers and see what kind of stats work for them. But I, um, I text one of my, one of my boys who, um, he's a, he's a competitive two K play where he plays a lot, a lot of the uh, you two K league players and he was like everyone he knows is is running these particular stats or these particular things, and I was like, all right, bet, like I'll, just I'll run them too. Like I mean, I don't see why not. But also, you know, based on just on my insight of playing ball, I don't play like the two K, uh, the two K league players or the two K competitive players, because I see the game differently, because I done played it my whole life. You know what I'm saying. So certain things, like there's no way I'm throwing a ball for court just because I get a rebound you know what I'm saying. I'm not doing that. Why not? Because to me that's a horrible pass.

Speaker 1:

But the game rewards you for shit like that. That's what you got to.

Speaker 2:

That's what you got to get For it? Yes, so that's what you got to get, in the habit of doing, and that's what I've learned with playing fighting games Like yo.

Speaker 1:

You might not like to do this, but the game or this character rewards you for doing this. So you always do this in this situation because you're going to win. So it's kind of like what? Situations like that, if you're passing is good. Yes, heave that motherfucker up the court If he's already have court target pass. I do that shit all the time. Easy assist oh no, I'm not saying it's not easy Assist.

Speaker 2:

I'm just saying it in my head, not to do it Because it's stupid, because it's stupid. Stupid why? Because it's stupid.

Speaker 1:

I get that part. The game rewards you, that's not something.

Speaker 2:

I would, but you're not a professional. You're not a professional.

Speaker 1:

That's why you I was a big man.

Speaker 2:

I got a rebound and I look in the point guards not next to me. I'm calling for him to come next to me, like come back, because I'm not dribbling this shit and the coach taking me out.

Speaker 2:

Come on, man, right, and you know, and at that when and if that is, if this is the case, that I have to do it this way A lot of times, it's your, your choice. Your, your two and three are supposed to fly. Your one comes back just in case they're not open. Yeah, so the five of the four and five are already down there Um, trying to get the rebound. They look up to see if the two and three have already flown. If they're open, you toss it. If not, your one is there for you to come get the ball for, to come get the ball from you. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2:

And so when I did my center build last year, I didn't have a super high um pass rating. I had enough that gave me bronze um break starter, but that was enough at the time. You know what I'm saying. Where it was like oh, you got, you got break starter, all right, cool, and you were able to get the ball down there and at least make a decently accurate pass, all right, but I didn't make it a practice to make that pass. You know what I'm saying, because in my head that is a. It's a horrible pass, it's a super horrible pass to make. You know, cause, like what? What am I making that pass for Like to get an easy break, all right, cool.

Speaker 2:

But if I'm getting a rebound and I'm throwing the ball down court because you already flown, how great of defense were you playing? You're really just looking for points and, in my opinion, fuck you and your points, trying to get ass niggas. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, that's me, that's you. I'm just like you know you got like oh, I'm over, throw, throw, throw, throw. I'm like dude, like I'm not about to throw this pass, so I think it'll be. I think it's in that regard you have that sentiment because of randoms, but if it was actually all the people that you do?

Speaker 1:

you don't. Yeah, If it was people that had a good sense of the game, you know you had a good sense of the game. You had a good sense of the game.

Speaker 2:

You don't care if those people that I knew you don't care, I can get two shifts.

Speaker 1:

Right, yeah, cool, I got you, you better, you better. Yam that motherfucker.

Speaker 2:

No, you better, you better you better you better yam the fuck out of it. You know what I'm saying. So yeah, yeah, if it was any, if it was not randoms, then, yeah, I'd be straight.

Speaker 1:

Yeah Well, so another game that you'll be playing, it's not Elder Scrolls, it's God of War.

Speaker 2:

Wait, what God? There's another God of War coming up.

Speaker 1:

Nah, same God of War. It's just some DLC and it's free. Wait what? Oh, oh, oh, oh, you said it and it comes out two days from now.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, wow, wow, hey. You fucking called me a nerd and if you get it, it's shit. Yeah, man, check it out, check it out, do your YouTube's man. It's all, it's all there.

Speaker 2:

That video game awards was a couple of days ago. How many awards did they win?

Speaker 1:

None, actually. Well, what I'm saying is they got nominated for a couple, which is weird, but they didn't win any. Yeah, yeah, they won a game of the year Two thought was a 2018.

Speaker 2:

So yeah, 20 years 2018. They won game of the year, yeah.

Speaker 1:

But yeah, man, I say check out the YouTube video. Don't, don't listen to my critique of what the type, what the DLC is. But yeah, check it out, check it out, check it out, check it out.

Speaker 2:

No, guess I'm going to have to check it out now, now, now, now, look, now you're going to have me turn on my God of War. How this much.

Speaker 1:

I mean you're going to have some. I mean you probably want to see what it's like on a. What's that Tuesday?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, tuesday you see my work because I haven't played God of War since I beat it Honestly, yeah, honestly, I haven't played this since I beat it and but you beat it, beat it, you do, you beat you.

Speaker 1:

You beat all the side missions and shit. I ain't do all that. Yeah, I beat all the side. I just beat the main story and that was it, and I'm like I'm done.

Speaker 2:

That's why I'm. That's why I'm like all right, well, what else is there for them to do? And someone was saying like, yeah, we expect them to put out some new content, because they did that with the God of War from 2018.

Speaker 1:

They ain't put on no new content for the God of War. They did a game plus. They made it like a, like a redo it. Yeah, they did that.

Speaker 2:

But they did that. Well, I was like all right, well, I don't really fuck. You know, that's what they want to do. That's what they want to do. I mean, I ain't sure, yeah, but it's, it's it. I like the new God of War. I wonder what that new downloadable content is going to be. I ain't going to hold you. Well, you said it's free, so do I got to go to Ubisoft? No, they're not Ubisoft, they're Sony.

Speaker 1:

Sony. Yeah, I mean it might just come as an update, If it's free if it comes as an update, maybe fuck it to K.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I know.

Speaker 1:

That center build is not a priority right now.

Speaker 2:

But you know what If they do, if they do do downloadable content, I hope I don't have to.

Speaker 1:

No, they they are and it's free. It's basically the content. The downloadable content is something that you're doing after the main events.

Speaker 2:

Well, I've already done all those. Yes, afterwards, so it's like another story, is that? Is it with a trace as well?

Speaker 1:

No, just crickets, crickets and the head and the head yeah.

Speaker 2:

Okay.

Speaker 1:

Check out the video, man.

Speaker 2:

I'll check it out.

Speaker 1:

I'll check it out.

Speaker 2:

It's there. I mean, you know I gotta ask these questions because I didn't know. I know they have been talking, you know, because God of War came out last year around this time or November of last year. So the funny part was 2K came out the same. It was out a couple weeks or a month before I started playing God of War and I was like man, fuck that 2K, I'm gonna play this God of War. Shit, you know what I'm saying? Like why you want me to play 2K and I got a game, a beatable game, here. You know what I'm saying? Like shit, you play God of War like shit. And mostly because I just wanted to see the story between the Traiers and like I personally think that they're going to come out with another story that's just going to focus and on a Traiers, because it's still so much story to tell. You know what.

Speaker 1:

I'm saying We'll see.

Speaker 2:

It's still a lot of story to tell.

Speaker 1:

But they don't have to tell the story.

Speaker 2:

They don't have to tell the story, but he left out with him and his little girl. For her he and Lee were. Yeah, he did.

Speaker 1:

He's traveling the world and shit like that.

Speaker 2:

He's traveling the different realms, Him and the girl. They travel.

Speaker 1:

They're not together because not because at the end he left before he left and she kind of stayed along and kind of went to a portal or some shit like that and rolled out. They went two different ways.

Speaker 2:

They together, when they do this, when they do the story story.

Speaker 1:

Because you beat the game. So you went back to. You went back to Damn it. Where's the Giants from? Even when you went back there and she was there by herself.

Speaker 2:

And when you went to F, oh, yeah, yeah, when you, when you went back, when you went back to the land of the giant, which is F, oh, if I'm not mistaken.

Speaker 1:

I think, you're mistaken.

Speaker 2:

Oh, it shows that F oh.

Speaker 1:

Oh, that's the for elves, let's see it's something with a J.

Speaker 2:

I know that for sure.

Speaker 1:

Let's see Yodin High was a J Yodin is a J Yodin Yodin yeah.

Speaker 2:

So I know they, I know when they went to Yodin House she was there. I do remember that, by herself, I think they're together because he had a little crush on her. Yeah, he did A little crush on her.

Speaker 1:

And yeah, it's it was.

Speaker 2:

you know, in my head this is his little girl for her, and his head as his girl too. I don't know.

Speaker 1:

I might check it out. We'll see. I'm definitely going to download the content for God of war.

Speaker 2:

I got some time to play it and shit, because I took off. I took off 40 weeks and I was like oh, I'm going to play it, I'm going to play it, I'm going to play it, I'm going to play it. I took off, I took off 40 weekends for December.

Speaker 1:

You off every Friday.

Speaker 2:

I'm off either Thursday, friday or Friday Monday.

Speaker 1:

For December. That's what's up. So that's a nice little yeah, that's a nice little resting period. I'm always a fan of like not necessarily the the amount of days, but how you do your days. Yeah, because those extra long weekends hit different than you ban. You've been off, all you know, the whole week.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

It just hits differently. For some reason, though, the pace of the weekend is already slow, and you kind of you know you can relax more because you're in that frame of mind. Now, if it's the weekday, sometimes you'll be feeling like you got to still get shit done.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And that's my problem Always feel like I got to get shit done. I wake up like yo, I need to do shit. So can't wait till I kind of break myself out of that a little bit, but it is what it is. You still thinking about leaving? Find another JOB, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Well, I got, I got to get this money, right yeah.

Speaker 1:

I feel it, I'll get this money.

Speaker 2:

I mean, you know what? What am I doing on this? For If I ain't going to get this money, you doing it for the love of the game.

Speaker 1:

Man, look you, let your boss tell you how to do shit for the love of the game.

Speaker 2:

I ain't got that much love for the game. I ain't got that much damn love for the game.

Speaker 1:

Love of the game.

Speaker 2:

If I had that much love for the game man, I ain't got that much love for the game. You ready for dinner?

Speaker 1:

I actually go eat without you. I fuck with you. I said I should go eat without you.

Speaker 2:

I ain't love. I guess I should put the fish away. I guess I don't know.

Speaker 1:

Crazy thing is I'm not. I just want to put the broccoli in the damn thing, like I asked her to. Yeah, I know no, but yeah, man, fuck the love of the game, shit when it comes to these employers. And I handed no raises, so you know what that means. It's time to get my raise and stick up another company.

Speaker 2:

Yep.

Speaker 1:

That's all that is.

Speaker 2:

That's all it is. It's taken from my house, but we'll see how a whole thing can transpire. Yeah, yeah, well, I can never say.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I will see, we'll see. 2024 is upon us. Pretty sure there will be strange things happening with the economy because it's an election year. So you never know, never fucking know. Fuck 2024, not fuck 2024,. But 2025 was gonna be that a that determine factor and I don't know if it's a old, sleepy, sleepy, old decrepit as Biden as a president again, or we get some new situation in. There is going to be a weird year by coming off of COVID, coming off of COVID, inflation, I don't know, man, 2025 is. I know I'm skating right past 2024, but 2025 is going to be something serious. Not only that 2024 next, this coming year, will be kind of crazy, I Biden.

Speaker 2:

Sleepy Joe going win. I mean, let's face it, who sleepy Joe?

Speaker 1:

You know, whatever you know, I'm on a boat, see, gets. Then that's what it is, but it won't be on my hands. I Ain't gonna have them remorse. Yeah, I'm not voted for that motherfucker like I Don't know. Besides, the shit with his son is eating up as far as indictments and shit.

Speaker 2:

That is a prize man.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so A part of me is eager to see what Donald Trump was gonna do. I know that sound kind of crazy, but Shit was just funny when he was just in the public Saying stupid shit, doing stupid shit, you know, showing that his vocabulary is not that vast. I Like that. Yeah, I know his wife ain't with him, no more.

Speaker 2:

Yes, he left him out there. She found out she was racist.

Speaker 1:

Hmm, I think she already knew that. I think she was just embarrassed. You know, I sometimes like woman who partages people, hangles people, partages, deal with some. It was a mile, but it's up until it embarrasses them. They like, hmm, nah, this is not benefiting me the way I wanted to. I Think she won't be like. You know, if he was to go again show won't be first lady again. She was good with just shopping and spending money. Maybe suck on some dick from time to time If that's what she was going if that's what she was doing, yeah, so.

Speaker 1:

It's just like you, like if you was married to the president, like If you was mr what do you call it? That's the first man, he's the first man and share, your wife was the president and shit. You don't really want to be dealing with all that other fuck shit of politics and shaking niggas hands and shit like that and being behind your wife like this. You know like, ah, y'all want to go watch fucking Our book of canan. You know y'all can't even do that no more because she fucking reading policies and shit. Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Oh.

Speaker 1:

You can keep to know what that.

Speaker 2:

Um, you know I watch patina Miller, tina Miller, I'm so a little bothered that you know she's with that corn boy.

Speaker 1:

Okay, my god, damn I. That's not. That's not what I asked. All I asked was are you watching our book of canan?

Speaker 2:

That's all that that's all I watched for her interact with her people and then know what she's married to Gosh. I can't even look at her the same way.

Speaker 1:

Are you watching it or not?

Speaker 2:

I watched it. You know what I'm saying. I watched it, you know, I'm just. I'm just saying how I feel about it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I need to catch up what Catch back up with all of them and watching none of that shit. To be honest, none of it at all.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you watch none of it.

Speaker 1:

I, man, been doing nerd shit, as you say, watching youtube videos on video games and, you know, helping people. Uh, fucking, update the computer. Yo, I had this motherfucker today. Right, I'm gonna say where he was from, but he says yo was it a rebionite?

Speaker 1:

I might not say anything. It was uh, some power point isn't updating a new power point to update. Blah, blah, blah, blah. I'm like all right bet. So I'm doing my thing. I see that he command you updated but ain't know how to update it. So I'm pushing update through and wait for it to update.

Speaker 1:

I'm, you know, I remote into his computer and shit, this motherfucker messages me. It says how long is this going to take? Uh, it's 10 30 pm when I'm at and I'm not hit up like Nigga. You fucking contacted me. Like don't fucking contact somebody for helping and say how long it's gonna take. Right, it's 10 30 here. I'm like I don't give a fuck what time it is. You ask for help. I ain't even been on the fucking you should. I just ignored it. I like we ain't even interacted for 15 minutes like come on now. And the reason why I ignored it? Because you know how, when you update and it says two minutes left for some shit, like that, it's it shows it there like what are you? Why are you even messaging me that? As soon as he said that the shit was done, I was oh, it looks like it worked. I'm like yes, it did good to hear oh, thank you so much. I'm not having a nice day and I just fucking have a heat and he didn't try to.

Speaker 1:

It wasn't even a try is just stupid. I ain't get offended or anything like that. I'm like you call. It's like one of them situations you call me Like who don't ask me, who the fuck I am. You call me, you know. It's like one of those situations like you ask for my help and then tell me how long is it gonna take if it's 10, 30 where you at Don't fucking ask for help, go to bed, because that's what the fuck I would do wait since tomorrow.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, no, that's what I would do go to bed 30 at night, when you kind of don't want to do nothing. No, are you waiting till tomorrow morning? Simple as that. I don't know why I went into that tangent, but yeah, what was I talking about?

Speaker 2:

You were talking about how, um Um Kawaii Leonard and uh the clipper, should have won the final N season tournament.

Speaker 1:

Yeah. So Kawaii Leonard, they definitely should have won the n season tournament because, come on down, they stacked, they got uh, paul george, they got westbrook. Kawaii Leonard, james Harden, like come on out, they should have won, fuck. No, they shouldn't have. That is not a good team. That is not a good you boy, you bet, I almost went there. They are not a good team. That's not a good team.

Speaker 2:

I mean, they didn't even make it to the, to the knockout round.

Speaker 1:

But in retrospect, those are good players? I don't think.

Speaker 2:

I don't think a lot of teams took uh the n season tournament seriously.

Speaker 1:

Would you if you was, if you was balling? You're not taking that shit seriously.

Speaker 2:

Um, I'm taking that serious, so as.

Speaker 1:

I want the championship.

Speaker 2:

I don't want that as far as the overall goal. Okay, I put this the money or is the overall goal, not not just the money, but because these games go on our record. Um, I would. I would take them seriously only because they go on my record. These games, these games go on my, my, my record, and so they are. They're going to be looked at to determine some shit, along with determining if we make the playoffs.

Speaker 2:

So, as long as the NBA keeps it that way, where it you know, let's say you go on for an NCC tournament and you miss the playoffs by four games because of those four games for the NCC tournament group play. Then teams will start taking it more serious. Like, yeah, you may or may not want to play those other games because they might. You know, the knock around might not go towards your, your regular season record. But think of it the way I think of it is you win four games, right, you don't have to play your starters in the NCC tournament. You don't have to. It's not a regular season game. It doesn't fall within the guidelines of what the NBA is trying to do as far as, like making sure Hold on, you wouldn't say that again.

Speaker 1:

You said you don't have to play your starters in the tournament. No, you don't have to.

Speaker 2:

Like when you get to the tournament, when you get to the knock around.

Speaker 1:

You don't have to Right, but at that point why wouldn't you? Because now it's Now you in it, you might as well try to win it and then to win it, yeah, I mean as long as.

Speaker 2:

As long as it goes towards your regular record, I would take it as serious as possible. That makes sense If I know that these games don't go towards my overall team record. That makes it so that we make the players is just the extra four games. These are games that I've been playing for a while. Four games. These are games that I would use the scout players who I'm on a fence about.

Speaker 1:

Which for a trade season next year?

Speaker 2:

I mean, but we're seeing that season Right or just trade.

Speaker 1:

Trade. No, that's why I say trade.

Speaker 2:

Why, like, let them show what they can do in these games. You know, like I would use it for that, like I wouldn't use it for anything other than that.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to tell you like this Give it, give it another year. We're going to start to see all the meta that goes behind this. When I mean by meta, like you just said, like all right now, scouts are using this for this. Now people are playing iffy players in the tournament to see how you do in certain situations. It is like a test bed or a sandbox for certain situations. You're going to start to see that. I don't I can't think of what that would be because I am not a coach, but I'm pretty sure I hear about it.

Speaker 2:

I mean as long as the, as long as the group play is in season. Yeah, I'll play hard because these games count towards those 82 games, but if the knockout round doesn't, this would be time that I'll be calling up healing, that I try that, that's true.

Speaker 1:

You know I'm sure come up here playing this.

Speaker 2:

If you want to do this whole thing, then make it so that Up into the championship game I don't think the championship game should count towards your 82 games, but let everything up until that game before the championship game down towards your 82 games, so everybody gets 80 games. And then, if you don't make it into the knockout round, then you play games on that off time in that tournament. So let's say Tuesday and Thursday was in season tournament knockout round games. That means Monday, wednesday, friday should be games for everybody who did not make that in season tournament. That you know what I'm saying, all right. And then you know, kind of go from there.

Speaker 2:

But if, oh, everybody's just getting a weak break from it, then it is what it is. Well, that's that's, that's what I'm saying. So If that's what, if that's what they're aiming for, then go for it. You go for it all the way. Yeah, but they could, they can make this a real thing.

Speaker 2:

You just have to make it so that everybody wants to still play their starters to win, because you got a lot of people that like they don't understand the point of it. They don't understand this, they understand that, and blah, blah, blah and it's like all right, well, I get it. You don't understand it? All right, fine, fuck it. Who gives a fuck? But If you put something behind it like this goes to wars, you still making it to the playoffs, so you still need to play these games. It will make teams actually play these games because, yeah, you might. You might not normally see the thunder four times out the year, but you saw him for your four times out the year this year because you so happened to have to play them in group play. You know what I'm saying so so.

Speaker 2:

It is what it is. Yeah, that's just me Right.

Speaker 1:

So I got you. I'm interested in us. Let's just see what it's going to be.

Speaker 2:

Oh no, it's definitely a good thing. I didn't think it was anything wrong with it. I think that it could have went differently about it and made it more clear to like how these games will be made up and if these games counted towards a regular record Because if they don't and you're still playing, you're playing more than 82 games Then I would have, for those N Season tournament games, I wouldn't have been playing my starters, adam, adam and calling G.
