You are listening to the Double A Club and this is your host, ny Boom, and my co-host, big Daz. We'll be talking about trending topics in healthcare and basically, just as a disclaimer just to let the listeners know that this is just basically on our opinions and speculations and I hope you guys enjoy the show. Let's start off and kick off with our first topic.
Speaker 2:Alright. So let's get past this, bro, alright. So I want to bring up this thing. Right, this is a sport, right? I looked up and I am so fucking fascinated by this sport. The thing that sucks is the only way I can see. Fucking fascinated by this sport. The thing that sucks is the only way I can see. This shit is in YouTube. I can't see it on TV, but this shit is crazy. It is one of it is considered one of the most brutal and most dangerous games ever played Ever played, I mean, even now, currently played Okay, and it is the earliest.
Speaker 2:This sport is one of the earliest forms of American football. So if you think of American football, right, this is the very, very first, the primal version of American football. Whoa, okay, whoa, okay. Yes, this is before fucking leather helmets and no, fucking, this is way before that. You know what I'm saying? Wow, no, it's not basketball, it's almost like a football. It's like a mix of football, soccer and other shit. You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 2:So this game dates back To the middle ages in Italy. The middle ages, okay, wow, this game Back in the middle ages was played by Popes, aristocrats, lords, noblemen and elite soldiers. So it just shows you how I'm just trying to. I'm just trying to paint the picture of how dangerous this game was. It had fucking soldiers playing the game, yeah, and it was any regular soldiers Elite soldiers, okay, alright, but yeah, there's gotta be Consideration how tough this game's gotta be. I got you. This game Is so violent, okay, so violent, that they only play three games a year. That is it. You're not going to see no more. Three games one year Done, that's how much time the players need to recuperate from the game. Okay, the game from the game. Okay, the game. Yeah, you're in, right, I know, I hope you win, right?
Speaker 2:The game is called Calcio Fiorantino, cacio Fiorentino, cacio Fiorentino. Like I said, the only way you can watch this sport is by YouTubing it, because it's not on our local channel, okay, but if you go to Italy, you can watch it over there, and they only have three games. So you got to know your schedule. So this game has a rich history and this game the only way they play is that they only play with the locals of certain communities. So they pick out six communities and they set them up for three games, and they set them up for three games and you have to be born in or be a resident of this community to be able to play this game. So you can't just like say, hey, they can't bring in a blue chipper or ringer or nothing. That motherfucker who's playing in that game has to be born there or has to be a resident of that district to play.
Speaker 2:Okay, the game lasts 50 minutes and is played on a sand field. Okay, with one net on each side of the field. The length of the field is about, let's say about like 50 yards, and the net is the end zone, so the net covers the whole back end of the field. So you have to score on that net, which is the whole field from the back side. Gotcha, can you picture this? Yeah, I can picture that. So it's a pretty, I got it. Yeah, so it's not like a soccer thing where it's just no.
Speaker 2:This soccer net covers the whole, from end zone to end zone on that end of the field, and then the same thing on the opposite end. Okay, yeah, and each team has 27 players on the field to play. Oh, okay, so 27 on one side, 27 on the field to play, okay, so 27 on one side, 27 on the other side, and then you have a 50-yard field and each end zone is one complete sideline to sideline net that you have to throw or kick or whatever the ball in that net. It shouldn't be that hard right. It covers the whole field, but I mean 27.
Speaker 2:That's a lot of people being through, alright? Well, you got to understand the game first, alright, so let me I'm going to go into the positions, right. So they have four goalkeepers. So four goalkeepers are protecting the net. So now I'm giving you an idea how big this net is. They can score. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, they got three fullbacks, five halfbacks and they got 15 forwards. Those are the people in the front line. They're in the front and they usually use seven referees to ref this match. Yeah, seven referees to rest this match. Yeah, now in the game. These are some of the rules that are allowed.
Speaker 2:The game allows head-butting, punching, elbowing and choking. What is not allowed is a sucker punch and a kick to the head, okay, so, no sucker punches, no sucker punches. You can't sucker punch bro, he's dead in the eye and punch you in the face. Yeah, you gotta alert the motherfucker and say yo, we fighting right now. Okay, similar to hockey. Oh, similar to hockey. Oh, okay, I got you. So you guys know, call him out, yeah, okay, so, so, so, so.
Speaker 2:So the game is played. The ref tosses the ball in the middle of the field, right, kind of like soccer. Right, you toss the ball in the middle of the field, right? Kind of like soccer, right? You toss the ball in the middle of the field and then what happens is both teams' forwards, which have 15 players on each side, all rush towards the middle and they begin to square off and fight like a hockey game. So you are seeing 15 different MMA fights in this before they get the ball. They're not going for the ball, they're trying to lay out motherfuckers. Before they go for the ball. What so? They brawl until one team shows weakness. Then, once they start, once one team gets an upper advantage, the halfbacks are now free to go get the ball and run and attempt to score. Now the person with the ball will get attacked by all players and all players can push, tackle and wrestle this guy down to the ground. Wow, wow, yeah. It's like a course of fucking MMA and rugby For real. Bro, that's crazy.
Speaker 2:Once he hits the ground, he can't get up until the team scores. So for, for example, if the halfback gets the ball, he runs it down and somebody punches him and he falls to the floor. He's down until until someone's score. Then he can get up. The ball carrier can protect himself, he can kick the ball. He could kick anybody, punch anybody on his way to try to score. And he can score several ways. He can dunk the ball in, he can throw the ball in, he can kick the ball in Any way that you can get that ball into that net is allowed. Okay, each time you score, it is one point. Every time you miss a score, score, the opposite team gets a half point. Okay, I get it, and the game will only stop for injury. Now you can imagine that this game must constantly stop because there's going to be injuries throughout the whole game.
Speaker 2:It is a beautiful blend of football. It's a beautiful blend of soccer, mma, bare knuckle boxing because they don't put on no gloves rugby, wrestling and hockey. All these elements of these sports are all put together in this shit. It's like people saw this sport and was like let me take this out and create hockey. Let me take this out and create rugby. Let me take this out and I'm going to create MMA and boxing. Let me take this out and I'm going to create American football. Let me take this part out of the game and I'm going to create American football. Let me take this part out of the game and I'm going to create soccer. They got everything all in one in this fucking game.
Speaker 2:That sounds crazy, bro. It's crazier when you see it on fucking on YouTube, when you see it on film. It is crazy Like these guys. These guys have broken cheekbones, jawbones, limbs. Like the game is crazy, bro, and it's everything is allowed except for grabbing nuts, sucker punching, shit like that. You know what I'm saying. Everything is free fall. You know what I'm saying? No kicks to the head, but you can fucking blow the back out of somebody. You know what I'm saying? It's just crazy. And the worst, the funny thing about it is it's organized For real, wow. Organized For real, wow. That's gotta be insane to watch. It's an organized clusterfuck of events happening in this game and this is why they can only play three games a year. That's hilarious. I definitely want to watch this. Yeah, you got to watch it, bro. Look it up.
Speaker 2:Calcio Quarantino Once you type in Calcio, everything else is going to come in, because it's the only fucking game, it's the only thing with Calcio. That's fucking crazy. I'm so paid For the Superman punch yeah, for real Superman punches. And all. Imagine that the fullback got the ball and he's running down to try to score and he's Superman, punching everybody in his way Fong Fong, fong Fong. And then he just tosses the ball like Tom Brady.
Speaker 2:You could be in the face. You could do anything, as long as it's not a sucker punch bro and no kicks to the face. That's the only sucker punch bro and no kicks to the face. That's the only thing they don't want. No kicks to the head because of the concussion. But yeah, knees are good. Like if you chuck your knees to the face. Like if you do a Muay Thai clinch and you drop his head and you knee him to the face. That's all game. Wow, yo, these motherfuckers come out with broken orbital bones and you want to hear something that's going to make you fucking trip right now. Are you ready for your LSD fucking tab right now?
Speaker 2:Definitely going to need a escort. Yo, they do it for free. Wow, so they are high, they're all high. They play for pride, bro.
Speaker 1:Yeah, whatever.
Speaker 2:They're high. You ain't telling me at least half of the niggas in there on those game days are not fucking I don't know, but they're playing for pride, bro. It's like. It's like James, they're not shooting it out, they're doing that organ game and this is how we settle. That that's good. That's good. That's what's up. So they do that. Just keep it big, like fucking neighborhoods or countries or places like intact and happy and cool. That should be so like I'm gonna catch you in the game Real. Yeah, that's serious.
Speaker 2:They have interviews With the players. They do a whole big thing for them and everything. They show so much love to the players participating in the sport. Like these guys are crown princes. That's what's up. I mean, yeah, he's got this whole big-name people that are in like high-ranking shit. So, yeah, they should be. Yeah, well, I mean, this is, those high rankings were back in the days of the Middle Ages. Now, it's not that they did it, not that, now it's whoever. It's more. It's more like it. It's more like a neighborhood thing. It's more like a neighborhood thing. It's more like a gang thing kind of. But they're doing it in an organized sport. Okay, I got you. Yeah, you got to see it, bro, you got to check it out. Got Calcio Quarantino? You got to check it out, bro. So let me get to my To my last thing, my last topic.
Speaker 2:They have a Cornerback For the Miami Dolphins, xavier Howard, who's signed a new contract For 90 million dollars. Right, that's a lot of fucking Hate, but here's the thing contract for $90 million. Right, that's a lot of fucking hate, but here's the thing this dude is most likely going to lose half of this money because, hello, yeah, I'm here, I'm Mike. So this dude is going to lose half of his money because he can't keep his dick inside his pants. This motherfucker impregnated four different fucking women around the same goddamn time. He is the NFL version of fucking Nick Cannon. Okay, and you think these four women don't know that? You just signed a 90 million goddamn contract, and the worst part about it is that he's not even going to get 90 million. He's going to get a lot less because you know he's got to pay agents, taxes, all this shit. But the women?
Speaker 2:all they know is $90 million. Yeah, all they know is $90 million. Dumbass. Literally, they know you would think that he'd be fucking smart At this point. He might as well just keep going, bro, get to 10 kids, that's where you'll pay child support. No, nick Cannon pays child support on all his kids he got I'm sorry, not child support. Taxes, oh, yeah, taxes, yeah. So a lot of the women are also suing him for filming them having sex without their permission and distributing it. He's losing money all sorts of ways, bro, yeah, he's just. He's trying to like, just retarget him.
Speaker 2:Go ahead, this motherfucker is dirty, bro, he's dirty. So he's got the double D dirty dick, right. Yeah, dirty dick. Yep, that's a dirty dick. That guy, yeah, one of the women, one of the women that he fucked with right is filing a lawsuit claiming that he gave her genital herpes. Bro, what? Yes, that's bad Dirty dick. Xavier Howard, bro, that's a dirty dick, that's a dirty dick. That motherfucker is a double D and not in cup size. Yeah, ugh, that's nasty. So, 90 million gone in child support lawsuits and probably criminal charges. Okay, goodbye. Probably criminal charges, goodbye. Good thing, good thing. Like I said, you get what you put the work in for that's it. You did it, you got the job, but what is good about it is yours for real, real. The thing that Makes it Sadistically funny Is that you can't make this shit up.
Speaker 2:This is a true story Might as well, you would have been better off with a gambling problem. Yeah, you would think that you learned your lesson by watching Nick Cannon and his dirty dick expose and his fucking family life and how many kids he's got. And come on that mother, I mean he's making money, but I guarantee you his women is fucking supporting him. Yeah, but he got enough money to do it. Yeah, but his money's going to child support. Yeah, but Nick Cannon ain't making no 90 mil. No, he's not making no 90 mil.
Speaker 2:Like Nick Cannon is making enough money.
Speaker 2:When Nick Cannon is making his corny ass album. That's what he's doing. He's not making 90 mil. Yeah, what you telling me? Nick Cannon don't make that much money. He don't get to see that money, I know. No, because he's paying it to all his. He's got like sick baby mamas. No, he's not seeing all that money. At least half of that shit is gone. Know, because he's paying it to all his. He's got like sick baby mamas. No, he's not seeing all that money. At least half of that shit is gone. At least half is gone to his baby mom. Unless he set up a contract with them where he's like set, he has like a set payment, I mean a set agreement with them.
Speaker 1:I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2:Nick Cannon's been came for a long time Like, and Nick Cannon's like, he's like the CEO of Nickelodeon, is he? I don't think so, nick Cannon. He, and on top of his wildin out shit, I don't know if he's still CEO Of Nickelodeon still, but he was one of those Like he, nick Cannon was making money. He had money before he even met Mariah, before he even got with Mariah Carey. No, wait, a wait, a wait, a first of all. No, he had, yes, no, wait, a. He had money. But then he was not close to Mariah Carey money. I didn't say that, I know, I'm just, I'm just saying that Mariah Carey money. I didn't say that, no, I'm just, I'm just saying that Mariah Carey was the breadwinner when they were together and she was a clear, a clear lead in breadwinning. Okay, okay, mariah Carey Definitely was, but Definitely like more money. But she also, when he was with her, he upgraded. So he was already making a shitload before he even got with her. So after he got with her, he was making more money.
Speaker 2:Here's the thing, even though he's making more money. But here's the thing, here's the thing, daz right, even though he's making a lot of money the child support you still have to pay a percentage of what the money you make. So you're paying out a lot of money anyway. You're not taking home that money that you're supposed to be making in a year. And he's got six of them, so he's paying six different people, six different tax brackets. You know what I'm saying? So, yeah, he's making more money than us, but he's not making as much money as he should be At the rate that he's not making as much money as he should be at the rate that he's at. My point is is that it don't matter, he's still making enough. He could still live. He's enjoying his money. He's gonna be that's how much money he's got.
Speaker 2:That's how much money he got that he can support his kids with his child support and still live with the fucking life he wants to live. I mean, I guess, if you want to say that, I mean we don't know what type of life he's living. I mean he is still making a lot of money, he's making good money, but I just think he's shorting, shorting. He's shorting his money, his money stack for all his baby mom. I mean, of course, that's that's just, that's just inevitable at his point, at his, at his point. Yeah, it's just, when does a, when does a fucking fool learn that it's not funny anymore? You know what I'm saying. Like when does a, when does a fool fool learn that it's not funny anymore? You know what I'm saying? Like when does a fool know that his comedy or his jokes is not funny anymore? When does Nick Cannon know that he needs to stop making more babies? I don't know, maybe that's his goal, the goal, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2:So I think the motherfuckers just like the feeling of war and that, and the girls is nasty for allowing him to go war on him with as many bodies as he's got. War? Well, it's because of the account, you know, they see him. All he's needed is money. Yeah, why is it because of his account. You know what I mean. They see him. All he's doing is money. Yeah, like his wildin' out shit made him money. Yeah, he made money. All I'm saying is that he's good. He can spend whatever the fuck he wants, and he's still good.
Speaker 2:Like he's got that, like he's close to Mariah Carey, money now that when he met Mariah Carey, then I agree he's good. But here's the thing he's only good until he's not good. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:I don't think he's a hell at this point.
Speaker 2:Look at some of these people who've made millions, like there's that basketball guy who found out about his wife doing OnlyFans. Right, your motherfucker had $90 million. Now he has $3,000 a month or something like that. $3,000 a week or something like that. He has no money, bro. You know what I'm saying. You're only good until it's not good. Let me break this down another way. This is what I'm trying to say. I know what you're trying to say Hold on.
Speaker 2:You can't compare rich to wealthy. Nick Cannon is wealthy. Now the people that you're comparing them with, those are rich people. Rich people can lose all they want. A wealthy person cannot. I don't think they can fucking spend their money Like you've got to spend your money in the fucking span of 20 years to lose wealth. I guess Like even that's tough, Like you couldn't spend that money if you wanted to, Because it just keeps generating, it just keeps going. That's what I'm saying. Nick Cannon got enough money that he could do that. He got enough money. That means he should have 20 more kids and he's still good. I think he's about at 20 right now. I'm not too sure. I don't think he has wealth. I think he's rich. I'm looking up right now and on the internet it says that Nick Cannon's net worth is 20 million. He's not even in the Forbes 500 with that money, so he's not wealthy.
Speaker 1:He's rich.
Speaker 2:Alright, I'm just saying 500 with that money so he's not well, he's rich All right.
Speaker 2:I'm just saying he knows he could be worth. He could be worth three times that if he didn't have so many being mom. That's all. So maybe you're right, maybe I'm all right. That's all I'm saying. I'm not saying he's not rich. He doesn't have a lot of money. I'm not saying that. What I'm saying is that if he didn't have six different fucking women that he had to pay for, he'd have a whole lot fucking more. You know, one baby mama, one, one baby mama, one child is like what is it Like? 6-10% that they take from you. Then, when you get two, it's like 14-15-20%. It keeps going up. That motherfucker is at. He's gotta be at least 50% of his earnings Gotta go to the baby mama. All six of them, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:So that's what I'm saying. Like he could be worked so much more If he just Keep his dick in his hand. Put a condom on, just put a condom on. Put a condom on. You don't even have to keep your dick in your face, just put a condom on For real. I mean, they got, they got. They got new technology. They got like Hair, skin technology. It almost feels like you're raw. It's not bad. Put a fucking condom on, bro, stop nutting inside this chick or have a better pull-out game.
Speaker 2:Like. Your pull-out game needs to improve, bro. Like practice at home in the shower jerking off and then when you're about to nut pull it off, practice that until you become perfect, that pull up, because you don't need more fucking kids. Yeah, huh, like. I think I think Nick Cannon and this guy, xavier Howard, I think they're trying to create a new city with as many kids as they have. Damn, that's it for me, man. Nyc Boom is out.
