interesting story uh mark cuban is continuing to be absolutely brilliant and i know i'm going to
get a little bit of pushback about this but um mark cuban has said that he's going to stop playing
the national anthem before home games yes for the dallas mavericks. Yes. I love this. Yes. This is a great idea.
And listen,
I'm more American
than the people
at Storm Capital Hill.
I am.
I love America.
I justify all the fuck shit
we do overseas.
I mean, it's horrible.
It is the thing
that I am the least
objective about
is how much I love America.
Right.
Okay?
But the national anthem anthem the sports games is
absolutely doesn't make any sense it makes no fucking doesn't make any sense you sit down the
seat you got your fucking nachos you got your drink you're comfy you're ready to go and then
they play the national anthem i gotta stand up if you want to play the national anthem as we walked
into the arena when we're already standing with With it. We're on the escalator. Makeconvenient.
There we go.
We're waiting for our chips.
I'm in line right here.
I love it.
Matter of fact, if you want, before I enter the arena,
that I have to go through the national anthem
like a security checkpoint, like a TSA,
but I got to go, oh, so can you see?
I pledge allegiance to not commit acts of terrorism
on the United States of America.
I'm just going to watch the game.
That's what they make you say, yeah.
Me, it might be a little different.
Thank you for building this country.
But in all seriousness,
I think that the national anthem,
don't get me wrong,
I understand it has historical significance
in terms of sporting events,
especially when it comes to the Olympics.
The Olympics, it makes sense.
Okay?
The Olympics is country versus country.
It's country versus country competing.
Everybody playing the NBA outside of Canada is from America.
We're all on the same side here.
We all know where we want to be.
That's why we're fucking here.
Okay?
We're all about America, baby.
And I'll tell you this removing the national anthem before a basketball game would be worth never having to hear the canadian national
anthem at a basketball game that's a great point because the only thing worse than hearing the
national anthem having to get out of your seat is having to get out of your seat for fucking
oh canada okay two anthems first of all is a problem second of all
that shit don't slap much it's just too much it's that's why they're so nice you can't even be an
asshole with such a whack anthem yes it's just like what am i gonna be an oh i can't be obnoxious
yes pussy ass anthem yeah it is i know robbie slovak has that joke about the uh the uh it's
just so insecure,
like forcing the kids to say the Pledge of Allegiance
every morning at school.
It's a really good joke.
Shouts to Robbie.
But the same thing holds true to the sports games.
America's dope.
You don't got to force us into liking America.
This is the sexiest culture.
There's the reason why the entire world
is influenced by America,
because it's sex, baby.
We're not dressing like motherfuckers in Mongolia.
I don't know if they're dressing like us.
I don't know anything about Mongolia.
They really fell the fuck off.
It was Genghis Khan and then downhill, baby.
They were killing it.
It really was.
Genghis Khan, Genghis Khan.
Genghis Khan, Genghis Khan.
Now all they got is that delicious beef that's Chinese.
It's not even Mongolia. Dude, China took youroli dude china took your beef they put it on their menu that's like what the irish
did to you guys yeah and the english and a lot of people yeah yeah we got the illest food point is
oh that was a good spin you did a good point is i don't you know i think mark cuban is doing that's
great he's telling reporters fuck you because mark cuban didn't announce this yeah reporters asked him and then he confirmed it this is just the media
trying to make the national anthem a story like they always do nobody gave a fuck about the anthem
and then the media made it this big divisive thing do you stand do you not yeah yeah yeah i think he's
just like let's just rip the band-aid off media you can run with this for a couple weeks and then
it's done who gives a fuck we're not doing this anthem controversy anymore.
Yeah.
Who stands,
who sits,
it's over.
Yeah.
We're American.
Cause they know that it's a divisive one because it seems somewhat like
anti-American.
If you're not acknowledging the anthem in the proper way,
obviously the fodder for months,
the entire NFL seasons are hinging on the anthem.
Yeah.
And he's like,
nah,
it's done.
Let's be honest.
The,
the,
the most of us, like once you get into that uncomfortable-ass seat in a stadium, you don't really want to get up.
No.
Oh, you got to take your hat off.
My hair looks like shit.
I put the hat on for a reason.
That's another good point.
Because I'm having a terrible hair day.
Here's a great clip of Jerry Jones who makes everybody stand up for the anthem.
Yeah.
Of him not taking his hat off.
And his son is like, yo, take your hat off.
And he won't do it probably because he doesn't have his toupee on.
He doesn't want people to see.
He's hilarious, bro.
So he's just like, nah, I can't.
Yo, you think they make Jews do that?
What, take off the kippah?
Yeah.
Interesting.
I think religious stuff,
you're allowed to keep it on.
Interesting.
I don't know.
No, because didn't,
what is it?
What's that motherfucker's name?
Some Sharif or whatever. Sharif Abdur-Rah some sharif yeah sharif abdurrahim oh but
it wasn't religious reasons that he was yeah i think it was like sitting down there was like
geopolitical reasons yeah um that's how american i am i'm like hey bro get your ass up man
pick a side you know pick a motherfucking side but having it not played at all i'm completely okay
yeah i'm kind of surprised i was like reading about it yeah what is the history of it so
basically like it was not played prior to like the 1900s so like it was played like a little
bit during the 1800s but in order to play the national anthem at a sporting event you had to
have a whole band that's right you had to have a sound system you had to have an entire band so it cost a lot of money what happens in the 1900s though world war one
so we need some national pride so rate and so 1918 basically you're like a year away from world
war one starting 100 000 men have died yeah there was a terrorist attack or like some bombing in
chicago yeah the uh the government just said they're going to start drafting baseball players. They said we're going to
start drafting MLB players. Yeah.
So the mood at game one of
the World Series. Also, I like that move. Like, you
get the athletes first. They should be the first people
drafted. Why are you drafting some fat
fucking schleppy idiot that is a janitor
in a middle school? You go after the
athletes. Front line. Yeah.
LeBron James with the AK. Yeah.
Maybe not on the front line. That's an easy target.
But somewhere.
That's a good point.
You know?
I feel like you send the fat people in first,
and then you get the real athletes to clean it up.
And in the meantime, we still get to watch games.
Dude, I like it.
Don't get me wrong.
Just let them play it weird.
I like it.
But I want to see the athletes on the front lines.
I want to see each one that has a specific skill used to the best of their ability.
Steph Curry?
Sniper.
Sniper. Sniper.
100%.
Put them up there on top of a building.
Have them picking off ISIS like it's nothing, Al.
I see you over there.
Big supporter of the Taliban.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm going to take away all our players.
I'm okay with that.
We'll find more.
You think they're going to die?
Why do you think they're going to die?
That's fucked up, bro.
Yo, that is fucked up.
Bro, you think Shaq is gonna die, bro?
He gets hit with one bullet,
picks it up, flicks it.
That's true.
Oh, that's all you got?
That's a good point.
That's all you got?
That's Superman.
That's the biggest target.
I'm aiming for that moment.
No, Shaq's gonna
just bounce off of him.
Yeah.
Let's see how super he is.
He's actually kind of an asshole
to call himself that
and then not go actually fight
the wars that we need him to fight.
He's a cop, though. That's a great point. You can't call the wars that we need him to fight. He's a cop though.
That's a great point.
You can't call yourself
Superman
and not do no super shit.
Shaq a cop.
Shaq be fighting crime.
Does he fight crime?
Where?
Are he out there
dunking on six-year-olds
in cul-de-sacs?
Yeah.
Right?
I don't see this guy
doing anything absolutely crazy
as a sheriff
of where the fuck he was.
but he'd be doing it though.
I don't know if he'd be doing it.
We gotta make regular superheroes
do that shit. Dwight Howard. That's the one that needs to be out there. But he'd be doing it. I don't know if he'd be doing it. We got to make regular superheroes do that shit.
Dwight Howard.
That's the one that needs
to be out there.
You say you're Superman too.
You'd be wearing capes and shit.
Yeah.
Skirts, capes,
all that kind of flowy shit.
Have him out there
fighting for trans rights.
That's what you need
to send to the Middle East.
That's actually a great idea.
You guys haven't tried it?
That shit is lit.
I'm just saying the dudes be
wearing dresses out there too that's his dream world he's gonna go out there like why are we
fighting this is everything i've ever wanted make love not war yeah but yeah so basically they have
game one of the world series chicago's playing the red sox and in the middle of the game like
seventh inning stretch they have the band there they play the national anthem and one of the four one of the players was in the navy and he like goes and
salutes the flag and everyone else starts saluting the flag and like this once like really like shush
crowd that was like kind of like you know somber and tired all of a sudden they erupt and it's the
highlight of the game love it story so then they start playing it at every game of the world series
and then they start playing it at every game in the MLB.
And then the NFL commissioner says,
we got to play this at every game.
And then the NBA, the same deal.
But it wasn't even the national anthem at the time.
You believe this shit?
No.
Sean DeRoy wrote this.
Yeah.
I believe that shit.
That's just crazy.
Salute the flag.
And then we all salute the flag.
It wasn't even the national anthem at the time.
That's just wild.
Come on, we were supposed to believe.
Remember that fucking race where the two black guys put their fists up
yeah we're supposed to believe that story like a white guy beat a black guy when it was still
black and white television sets come on bro yeah an australian was faster running
yep he got third though didn't he he got second he beat one of the black guys
better put your fist down that's why his head was down.
I can't believe it.
