Chapter 2: How did Mel Kiper react to the draft results?
UCLA, big.
He sounds really fast.
Let's see, Washington Commanders 4-4.
4-4-6 is what I'm looking at right now. That is not as fast as my guy. Sorry. Looks like I got the fastest. It said fastest linebacker in the draft. 4-4-6. But my guy went 4-4-2. So AI is lying.
I'm seeing game speed right now. I got my guy catching a guy who runs a 4-4 from behind.
This is some good fucking linebacker talk. Here we go.
There's a YouTube video.
Washington gets athletic freak in all caps. So our good friend Tom Fernelli, there's a site called Relative Athletic Score. where it has you ranked in your position group. So you see this right here, PFT? So this is him as a linebacker, and then this is him as a running back. He would basically be like a freak in all of the running back.
I'm seeing an article right now. Medrano ran a 4.46 second 40-yard dash, making him the fastest linebacker at this year's combine.

Chapter 3: What are the highlights from the NBA playoffs?
Fucking Jerry O'Connor.
Damn. The Lakers are in trouble.
I think that this is going to go the distance, though. You do? I think so. Anthony Edwards was so good. And he's like, his decision-making has gotten so much better. What did he end up with, 43? It was over 40. Yeah. I think he had 43.
And listen, that game was fun at the end because LeBron couldn't get the ball inbounds, then fouled Anthony Edwards, which I don't know if the Lakers got screwed or maybe J.J. Redick screwed that up. But the way it worked was the Lakers called the timeout to get the ball to half court. Yep.
And the Timberwolves called the challenge within 30 seconds of the timeout, won the challenge, and then the Lakers lose their timeout.
Yeah, I don't know. I don't understand.
Yeah, well, that's what happened. So it was like, I don't know if JJ should have waited to see if they were going to challenge before using his timeout.
Well, JJ was upset after the game, and he said that the refs missed a call on Luka. He says that Luka Doncic doesn't just fall down.
Yeah.

Chapter 4: What are the key moments from the NHL playoffs?
Because then he could just be a little bit better in the postseason. Everyone's like, holy shit, team on his back. Is he just tired in the playoffs? He's like, that was a long fucking season.
Ooh, I hate to say this, but is he James Harden? He's not. He's way better. He's not even fucking close.
He actually lost weight.
Yeah, exactly. And he was fucking electric this season.
Yeah. You know what I mean? Like, he was there. When I saw him at the start of the season, I was like, what? And he keeps talking about how he lost, like, what, 15, 20 pounds? Yeah. I was like, Lamar... Like, from where also? Lamar was never fat. I know. But he was... But he did look smaller. He looked faster. Do you still, like... Do you find yourself still wincing every time he gets hit?
Yeah, of course. Like, please don't let that be the big one? I'm terrified of the big one.
Of course... I mean, yeah. Your boy's fucking skinny as fuck. Yeah. But, I mean, Lamar has had some injuries, obviously, but... I am a little scared. I've gotten a little more scared, but I also think, I don't think he should be afraid to just open it up a little bit.
I do think there is something to, whatever, we don't have to get into the playoffs again, but it's like, I would have liked to see a little more Lamar running. I mean, our running game was legendary, and I do think, I don't know, I'm still fucking pissed with you.
I felt bad that you had to do because, you know, we kind of have made you our Ravens fan. No, I was kidding. Not for what we did.
