In this episode of Kliq This, Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver bring you the usual mix of candid conversation and behind-the-scenes insights. From Kevin's ongoing gym routine after his bicep/shoulder surgery to a deep dive into the current wrestling landscape, including thoughts on the Royal Rumble and a certain “YEET” phenomenon, there's plenty to unpack! Kevin opens up about training again post-surgery (with some cautionary tales and hilarious gym stories), they break down the latest from RAW and talk about why a certain superstar has the crowd fully in the palm of their hand. Sean even admits he might be “too old” for all the hype—Kevin vehemently disagrees. You'll also hear some random but riveting discussions about the Grammys, potential real estate ventures in Gaza (!?), and a cameo memory of working with Macho Man Randy Savage. As always, the guys respond to your comments and questions: from bicep rehab tips (avoid cortisone, folks) to memorable wedding stories (wait till you hear about Triple H's wedding reception!).

Eric Hosmer hit his first home run since last July 29 for San Diego, Patrick Wisdom had a two-run triple. Mason Miller, a 24-year-old right-hander who is Oakland’s top pitching prospect, made his major league debut. Tonight L.A.

Dumars also says it was made with serious consideration of many factors. Dumars oversees the league’s basketball operations and sanctions for on-court incidents. Green stepped on the chest of Kings center Domantas Sabonis midway during the fourth quarter of Game 2 of that series on Monday night. Green was ejected for the play. The league escalated the punishment on Tuesday night. NBA – Sacramento’s Mike Brown unanimous Coach of the Year winner Sacramento’s Mike Brown is the unanimous winner of the NBA’s Coach of the Year award. It was an easy call after his first season in Sacramento saw the Kings make the playoffs for the first time since 2006. All 100 voters from a panel of reporters and broadcasters had Brown atop their ballot Wednesday. Brown won the award for the second time, adding this trophy to the one he got after he and LeBron James led Cleveland to a 66-16 record in the 2008-09 season. The other finalists were Oklahoma City’s Mark Daigneault and Boston’s Joe Mazzulla. Golf – PGA – Tiger Woods has ankle surgery, rest of majors in doubt Tiger Woods is recovering from another surgery. Woods has posted on Twitter that he had fusion surgery on his right ankle to alleviate arthritis from a broken bone. Most estimates on recovery are eight to 12 weeks. That would put into doubt whether he plays in the three remaining majors. Woods had a noticeable limp when he played in the Masters. He made the cut for a record-tying 23rd time. But he withdrew Sunday morning during the third round because of plantar fasciitis. The broken bone in his ankle stems from the February 2021 car crash in Los Angeles. Texas cheerleaders shot after one says she got in wrong car Authorities say a man shot and wounded two cheerleaders in a Texas supermarket parking lot after one of them said she mistakenly got into his car thinking it was her own. The shooting early Tuesday east of Austin was the latest in a string of recent U.S. shootings apparently sparked by someone showing up at the wrong place. Heather Roth says she got into what she thought was her car, but there was a man in the passenger seat so she got back into her teammate’s car. She says the man then approached her teammate’s car and opened fire. She was grazed and her teammate was critically wounded. The man fled but was later arrested. IIHF – 2-time US hockey Olympic defender Megan Bozek retires Two-time United States women’s hockey Olympian Megan Bozek is retiring. The 32-year-old defender from Buffalo Grove, Illinois, won silver medals at the 2014 Sochi and 2022 Beijing Winter Games. Bozek also won four gold medals in six world championship tournament appearances, ending with a silver-medal finish in 2022. Bozek made her national team debut in 2007 in the Under-18 Series, and finished her career with 17 goals and 41 assists for 58 points in 111 games.

Eric Hosmer hit his first home run since last July 29 for San Diego, Patrick Wisdom had a two-run triple. Mason Miller, a 24-year-old right-hander who is Oakland’s top pitching prospect, made his major league debut. Tonight L.A.

The A’s will work with Nevada and Clark County on a public-private partnership to fund the stadium. Kaval said the A’s hope to break ground on the stadium by next year and would look to hope to be able move into their new home by 2027.

Dumars also says it was made with serious consideration of many factors. Dumars oversees the league’s basketball operations and sanctions for on-court incidents. Green stepped on the chest of Kings center Domantas Sabonis midway during the fourth quarter of Game 2 of that series on Monday night. Green was ejected for the play. The league escalated the punishment on Tuesday night. NBA – Sacramento’s Mike Brown unanimous Coach of the Year winner Sacramento’s Mike Brown is the unanimous winner of the NBA’s Coach of the Year award. It was an easy call after his first season in Sacramento saw the Kings make the playoffs for the first time since 2006. All 100 voters from a panel of reporters and broadcasters had Brown atop their ballot Wednesday. Brown won the award for the second time, adding this trophy to the one he got after he and LeBron James led Cleveland to a 66-16 record in the 2008-09 season. The other finalists were Oklahoma City’s Mark Daigneault and Boston’s Joe Mazzulla. Golf – PGA – Tiger Woods has ankle surgery, rest of majors in doubt Tiger Woods is recovering from another surgery. Woods has posted on Twitter that he had fusion surgery on his right ankle to alleviate arthritis from a broken bone. Most estimates on recovery are eight to 12 weeks. That would put into doubt whether he plays in the three remaining majors. Woods had a noticeable limp when he played in the Masters. He made the cut for a record-tying 23rd time. But he withdrew Sunday morning during the third round because of plantar fasciitis. The broken bone in his ankle stems from the February 2021 car crash in Los Angeles. Texas cheerleaders shot after one says she got in wrong car Authorities say a man shot and wounded two cheerleaders in a Texas supermarket parking lot after one of them said she mistakenly got into his car thinking it was her own. The shooting early Tuesday east of Austin was the latest in a string of recent U.S. shootings apparently sparked by someone showing up at the wrong place. Heather Roth says she got into what she thought was her car, but there was a man in the passenger seat so she got back into her teammate’s car. She says the man then approached her teammate’s car and opened fire. She was grazed and her teammate was critically wounded. The man fled but was later arrested.

Dumars also says it was made with serious consideration of many factors. Dumars oversees the league’s basketball operations and sanctions for on-court incidents. Green stepped on the chest of Kings center Domantas Sabonis midway during the fourth quarter of Game 2 of that series on Monday night. Green was ejected for the play. The league escalated the punishment on Tuesday night. NBA – Sacramento’s Mike Brown unanimous Coach of the Year winner Sacramento’s Mike Brown is the unanimous winner of the NBA’s Coach of the Year award. It was an easy call after his first season in Sacramento saw the Kings make the playoffs for the first time since 2006. All 100 voters from a panel of reporters and broadcasters had Brown atop their ballot Wednesday. Brown won the award for the second time, adding this trophy to the one he got after he and LeBron James led Cleveland to a 66-16 record in the 2008-09 season. The other finalists were Oklahoma City’s Mark Daigneault and Boston’s Joe Mazzulla. Golf – PGA – Tiger Woods has ankle surgery, rest of majors in doubt Tiger Woods is recovering from another surgery. Woods has posted on Twitter that he had fusion surgery on his right ankle to alleviate arthritis from a broken bone. Most estimates on recovery are eight to 12 weeks. That would put into doubt whether he plays in the three remaining majors. Woods had a noticeable limp when he played in the Masters. He made the cut for a record-tying 23rd time. But he withdrew Sunday morning during the third round because of plantar fasciitis. The broken bone in his ankle stems from the February 2021 car crash in Los Angeles. Texas cheerleaders shot after one says she got in wrong car Authorities say a man shot and wounded two cheerleaders in a Texas supermarket parking lot after one of them said she mistakenly got into his car thinking it was her own. The shooting early Tuesday east of Austin was the latest in a string of recent U.S. shootings apparently sparked by someone showing up at the wrong place. Heather Roth says she got into what she thought was her car, but there was a man in the passenger seat so she got back into her teammate’s car. She says the man then approached her teammate’s car and opened fire. She was grazed and her teammate was critically wounded. The man fled but was later arrested. IIHF – 2-time US hockey Olympic defender Megan Bozek retires Two-time United States women’s hockey Olympian Megan Bozek is retiring. The 32-year-old defender from Buffalo Grove, Illinois, won silver medals at the 2014 Sochi and 2022 Beijing Winter Games. Bozek also won four gold medals in six world championship tournament appearances, ending with a silver-medal finish in 2022. Bozek made her national team debut in 2007 in the Under-18 Series, and finished her career with 17 goals and 41 assists for 58 points in 111 games.

NFL – Damar Hamlin asked who won Bills-Bengals when he woke up Damar Hamlin’s doctors say the Buffalo Bills safety has begun to communicate in writing with his family and others who have been at his bedside since going into cardiac arrest Monday — and his first question was “did we win?” Doctors at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center said in a conference call with reporters that Hamlin remains critically ill and in the hospital's intensive care unit. But they say it appears his neurological function is intact, meaning he can follow commands and move. The developments come as the Bills return to practice for the first time since Hamlin collapsed during the first quarter of Buffalo's game against the Bengals. NFL – NFL: Bills-Bengals won’t resume; playoff scenarios revealed The NFL won’t resume the Bills-Bengals game that was suspended Monday night after Buffalo safety Damar Hamlin collapsed and went into cardiac arrest on the field. The league announced its decision on Thursday. The NFL said its decision creates “potential competitive inequities in certain playoff scenarios.” The league said clubs on Friday, in a special league meeting, would consider a resolution recommended by the commissioner and approved Thursday by the Competition Committee. The Bills-Bengals game had major playoff implications. Buffalo entered Monday night needing a win to maintain the AFC's No. 1 seed. The Kansas City Chiefs currently hold that spot. The Bengals had a chance to earn that top seed with two more wins and a loss by the Chiefs.

The Detroit Lions' playoff prospects are a little more complicated. Detroit can reach the playoffs by beating the Packers only if Seattle loses to the LA Rams earlier in the day. A Seahawks victory would eliminate Detroit. The Lions insist they'll still have plenty of incentive to beat their NFC North rivals even if it has no impact on their own postseason fortunes. The Lions have won seven of their last nine games and are coming off a 41-10 blowout of Chicago. Detroit already has come a long way after going 3-13-1 last year in Coach Dan Campbell's debut season. The Lions are seeking their first playoff berth since 2016 and have a chance to end a run of four straight losing seasons.

Crump was one of seven Michigan State players facing charges but the only one tagged with a felony. Scuffles broke out in the tunnel after Michigan defeated the Spartans on Oct. 29. Crump in one video appeared to swing his helmet at a Michigan player. His attorney said a letter of apology to Gemon Green was part of the deal. Crump was suspended by Michigan State. In addition, the Big Ten has suspended him for eight games in 2023.

The Detroit Lions' playoff prospects are a little more complicated. Detroit can reach the playoffs by beating the Packers only if Seattle loses to the LA Rams earlier in the day. A Seahawks victory would eliminate Detroit. The Lions insist they'll still have plenty of incentive to beat their NFC North rivals even if it has no impact on their own postseason fortunes. The Lions have won seven of their last nine games and are coming off a 41-10 blowout of Chicago. Detroit already has come a long way after going 3-13-1 last year in Coach Dan Campbell's debut season. The Lions are seeking their first playoff berth since 2016 and have a chance to end a run of four straight losing seasons.

NFL – Damar Hamlin asked who won Bills-Bengals when he woke up Damar Hamlin’s doctors say the Buffalo Bills safety has begun to communicate in writing with his family and others who have been at his bedside since going into cardiac arrest Monday — and his first question was “did we win?” Doctors at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center said in a conference call with reporters that Hamlin remains critically ill and in the hospital's intensive care unit. But they say it appears his neurological function is intact, meaning he can follow commands and move. The developments come as the Bills return to practice for the first time since Hamlin collapsed during the first quarter of Buffalo's game against the Bengals. NFL – NFL: Bills-Bengals won’t resume; playoff scenarios revealed The NFL won’t resume the Bills-Bengals game that was suspended Monday night after Buffalo safety Damar Hamlin collapsed and went into cardiac arrest on the field. The league announced its decision on Thursday. The NFL said its decision creates “potential competitive inequities in certain playoff scenarios.” The league said clubs on Friday, in a special league meeting, would consider a resolution recommended by the commissioner and approved Thursday by the Competition Committee. The Bills-Bengals game had major playoff implications. Buffalo entered Monday night needing a win to maintain the AFC's No. 1 seed. The Kansas City Chiefs currently hold that spot. The Bengals had a chance to earn that top seed with two more wins and a loss by the Chiefs.

On today's episode I discuss Draymond Green's apology for using the word c**n towards Kendrick Perkins. Draymond said that after speaking with Joe Dumars and Adam Silver he realized he was wrong. Really? It took talking to Dumars and Silver for you to recognize that the word c**n is a racial slur? I then discuss Chris Broussard's comments regarding Toronto. The Fox Sports host said Kevin Durant wouldn't play in Toronto because "it's a different situation that African Americans are used to being in". What the hell does that mean. Please explain Chris. I discuss the double standards regarding black people making "racist" comments compared to white players or broadcasters doing the same thing. When are we as a society going to just eradicate all racial slurs from our vocabulary regardless of ethnicity and who is speaking the words? Until then I don't see things getting better in this country! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
We journey back to 1989 and discuss a key matchup between Central Division rivals, the Cleveland Cavaliers and Detroit Pistons.[Support: Buy Adam a coffee | Amazon: USA / Australia | Audible | PayPal]Let's welcome a new friend to the show – Ryan Van Dusen – an archivist and curator of Detroit Pistons and NBA-history content at-large. Over 80,000 fans already subscribe to Ryan's YouTube channel.It's the final week of the 1989 NBA regular season. This contest had significant implications on postseason play. For added context, we cover a few incidents that happened earlier in the season that had an impact on this game – including a late-January fight between the Cavs' Brad Daugherty and the Pistons' Bill Laimbeer. Plus, a second fight, when Detroit's Isiah Thomas mixed it up with Chicago's Bill Cartwright, less than two weeks before the game we're covering today. This conversation was a lot of fun and there are numerous audio drops to enjoy, too. After the recap, we briefly discuss Ryan's YouTube channel.

"What does farming have to do with Love?" That was my question when I started this conversation with farmer and business coach, Missy Singer Dumars. By the end, I was clear there is much to learn about love from farming and the cycles of life that farmers know and embrace. Bio: I come from a deep tradition of entrepreneurship and business. As the 4th generation of a family-run business, I grew up with business as dinner table conversation and even started my own as early as the 5th grade! Through college, I went on to theatrical design and found myself working as one of very few women in the male-dominated industry of Corporate Entertainment Lighting, managing multi-million dollar projects including Cirque du Soleil, the Wynn Resort and Celine Dion's Caesars Colosseum. At the top of my game in the Entertainment world, I found myself with a successful career but drained and spiritually bankrupt. That is the moment when I walked away from my career, a marriage that was struggling, sold my house, and followed a calling to dive deep into a path more aligned with my values of kindness and nourishment. From that moment, I moved in to the Holistic community and now have over 20 years experience with counseling, healing, teaching, leading spiritual retreats, and event planning. To those skills, I added a wide range of experience in online marketing including certification as an Infusionsoft Consultant. Now, I bring together my holistic wisdom with my roots in business to support conscious business owners to grow their business in a way that simultaneously increases their authenticity and self-awareness. In addition to business coaching, I have a beautiful 13-acre farm in Western NY, Crown Hill Farm, where I grow heirloom vegetables, raise heritage poultry and advocate for food diversity and sovereignty. Crown Hill Farm is also a venue for groups, events & private retreats. The wisdom of nature that I live within every day on this farm comes through in my approach to business thus fostering nourishment of spirit, business, and people.

Horace Jenkins an American former professional basketball player who played in the National Basketball Association (NBA) and several teams in Europe and Israel. Jenkins graduated from New Jersey's Elizabeth High School in 1993. Jenkins played one season at Union County College, before leaving to tend to the birth of his son, Hakeem. Over the next three and a half years, Jenkins worked for the United States Postal Service, as an electrician, and on the back of a garbage truck. Once he saved up some money, he decided he wanted to go back to college, and play basketball. While at William Paterson University, Jenkins was a three-time Division III Player of the Year (1999, 2000, and 2001). He was also a three-time Division III All-American. He holds numerous school records, and also was named 2001 Basketball Times Division III Player of the Year. Jenkins was also the winner of the 2001 ESPN NCAA dunk contest, beating former Division I standout Jeff Trepagnier. USC's Trepagnier, one of the college's most prolific high flyers, missed his last dunk attempt, and the 6'1" (1.85 m) tall Jenkins, had one up his sleeve, wrapping it up with a foul line two-foot leaner. Jenkins attended all three NBA pre-draft camps, but he was undrafted in the 2001 NBA Draft. In the summer of 2001, Jenkins attended rookie camp with the Orlando Magic and also received an invitation to training camp with Orlando. However, he declined the invitation and signed with Cimberio Borgomanero, a team in the Italian second league. He received a guaranteed one-year contract. He spent the 2002 NBA Summer League with the New York Knicks, and the 2003 Summer League with the Seattle SuperSonics. Horace Jenkins got his break in the summer of 2004, playing in the NBA Summer League with the Detroit Pistons. He was previously playing with AEK Athens of the Greek Basket League, with Pistons draft pick Andreas Glyniadakis. Pistons president Joe Dumars was watching a film of Glyniadakis and spotted Jenkins. Jenkins averaged 20.1 points, 3.3 assists, and 1.8 steals in 12 EuroLeague games with AEK Athens. Impressed, Dumars invited Jenkins to summer camp in 2004. In summer camp, he averaged 8.2 points and 2.8 assists per game in 5 games. That was enough to garner a guaranteed contract from the Pistons, which he signed on August 4, 2004. His contract was a one-year deal worth $385,277. Jenkins started the 2004–05 NBA season on the injured list, but he did see NBA game action 15 times. He was on the bench for the raising of the Pistons' 2004 championship banner, as well as the Pacers–Pistons brawl. Rumors circulated that he was being traded to the Chicago Bulls, and also that he was going to leave the Pistons and return to Italy. His NBA debut was a two-minute stint against the San Antonio Spurs. He scored 9 points the next night against the New Orleans Hornets. Jenkins scored a career-high 10 points on December 10, 2004, against the Atlanta Hawks. He was one of only three Pistons to score in double figures in that game. He scored 2 points in his hometown of New Jersey on February 5, 2005. Five nights later, in a rematch of the 2004 NBA Finals, Jenkins scored 8 points, in only 6 minutes against the Los Angeles Lakers. He scored 6 points in 20 minutes in his final NBA game, which was against the Charlotte Bobcats. Although he was left off the playoff roster, the Pistons made the NBA Finals for the second straight year. Jenkins was notable for being one of the oldest rookies in the NBA, and his life story was the subject of a short presentation narrated by Jamie Foxx, on ABC, during the 2005 NBA Finals. Jenkins took the long route to the NBA, working to support his family, and then playing in Europe, before signing his first NBA contract, at the age of 29. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/letssipandtalkwithfrema/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/letssipandtalkwithfrema/support
For nearly 20 years, Doug DuMars worked in finance, managing portfolios for companies like Kraft and Pepsi. Then two years ago, Doug saw a chance to disrupt the energy drink category with Rebellious Infusions; an all-natural, organic product with high levels of antioxidants and zero to low caffeine. Plus they're designed to boost the immune system -- a far cry from their chemical-filled competitors. Doug is looking to disrupt a highly competitive category: energy drinks. He started Rebellious Infusions because he wanted people to reimagine their idea of energy drinks into something that's actually good for you, plus with added health benefits you won't find in other products. Doug offers insights on how the beverage industry has changed over his career, where it's going, and what can be expected in the future. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Alligators with Randy Dumars by Matt Bell
Pour la Chronique de Motor City du jour, nous allons parler de la relation d'Allen Iverson avec les Detroit Pistons. Et si j'ai choisi de parler d'Iverson, malgré ses seuls 54 matchs sous le maillot de Detroit en 2008-2009, c'est parce que le MVP 2001 possède une caractéristique que très peu de joueurs de Detroit ont eu : il est l'une des rares stars NBA à avoir atterrie dans la Motown en tant que basketteur établi. Prenez Bob Lanier, Isiah Thomas, Grant Hill, Ben Wallace ou Chauncey Billups, soit les plus grands joueurs de l'Histoire des Pistons. Et bien soit ils ont été draftés par Detroit, soit ils sont devenus de grands joueurs grâce à leur parcours. C'est un fait, les stars ne viennent pas à Detroit, ni via la free-agency, ni par les trades. En ce sens, la venue d'Iverson, tradé par les Nuggets en 2008, fait figure d'exception. Mais si ce podcast a été titré "rendez-vous manqués" au pluriel, c'est qu'il y a une histoire qui est moins connue et qui a failli emmener Allen Iverson à Detroit en 2000, bien avant son vrai passage en 2008, à l'époque où The Answer n'était pas encore MVP. A l'époque, Iverson jouait toujours à Philadelphie et son caractère compliqué était venu à bout de son coach Larry Brown. Les Sixers étaient donc résolus à l'échanger et un trade XXL avait été mis en place avec 6 équipes et 24 joueurs dont Jerry Stackhouse, Eddie Jones, Glen Rice, Anthony Mason... Ce trade n'ira jamais à son terme mais on essayera dans ce podcast d'imaginer le destin des Pistons si jamais Iverson avait débarqué en 2000. Et puis le 2eme rendez-vous manqué des Pistons avec Allen Iverson se fera réellement en 2008. A 32 ans, Iverson arrivera sans doute un peu trop tard dans une équipe en bout de course, qui sortait de 6 qualifications minimum en Finales de Conférence mais qui s'apprêtait à commencer une traversée du désert. Quand Iverson débarque dans cette équipe dirigée par le head coach rookie Michael Curry, les Pistons sont déjà en reconstruction avec Rodney Stuckey qui devra se faire une place dans le backcourt au coté de Rip Hamilton et donc d'Allen Iverson. Cet embouteillage occasionnera plusieurs conflits et des mises sur le banc successives de Rip, puis d'Iverson. Dans ce climat de méfiance, l'aventure d'AI chez les Pistons ne pouvait pas bien se passer. Dans cet épisode des Chroniques de Motor City, nous revenons donc sur ces deux épisodes : en 2000 avec le trade avorté d'Iverson à Detroit, qui aurait changé tout le destin de la franchise et qui nous aurait privé de la Goin To Work Era en 2008, avec l'arrivée d'Iverson contre Billups, un mouvement qui confirmera la mauvaise gestion de la franchise à cette époque et qui fera d'Iverson le bouc émissaire idéal. Pour aller plus loin : Geiger really kept Iverson a Sixer, ESPN What if the Sixers traded Allen Iverson to the Pistons in 2000 ?

Personne ne peut rien dire sur Joe Dumars, le basketteur des Detroit Pistons. Double champion, membre des Bad Boys, backcourt de folie avec Isiah Thomas et record All-Time de match joué avec les Pistons sur 2 décennies, bref Dumars est un joueur incontournable. Mais le sujet qui nous intéresse aujourd'hui concerne plutôt son passage comme General Manager des Pistons, poste qu'il a occupé de 2000 à 2014. Pendant 14 ans, Joe Dumars a été le chef des Detroit Pistons, à la tête de toutes les opérations basket de la franchise. Et cette fois-ci, l’expérience a été un peu plus contrastée. Du fait de la longueur de son mandat, les Pistons ont beaucoup changé et Joe Dumars a eu le temps d'accumuler les échecs tout comme les réussites. Alors pour ce podcast, j'ai choisi de compiler toutes les grandes décisions stratégiques du GM Dumars et essayer d'en tirer une conclusion. A savoir, est-il un manager de génie ou plutôt une arnaque ? Les deux cotés de la balance sont bien remplis chez Joe Dumars. A son crédit, évidemment le titre 2004 remporté par Detroit, le 3ème de l'Histoire de la franchise seulement. Mais plus que ça, il y a surtout la construction d'une équipe qui gagne avec les arrivées réussies de Ben Wallace, Tayshaun Prince, Chauncey Billups et Rip Hamilton. C'est également Dumars qui a osé faire venir Rasheed Wallace en 2004, un trade crucial dont on a consacré tout un épisode des Chroniques de Motor City. De l'autre coté du spectre, il y a de nombreuses erreurs de Joe Dumars qu'on ne peut occulter. Le GM des Detroit Pistons a globalement raté tous ces hauts choix de draft et a souvent semblé hésitant sur le marché des agents libres. Les erreurs de Ben Gordon, Charlie Villanueva ou Josh Smith sont encore assez récentes pour hanter tous les fans des Pistons. On peut également regretter que le mauvais relationnel de Joe Dumars avec l'ensemble de ses coachs, ces derniers ayant été nombreux durant son mandat. Une fois ce podcast terminé, vous devriez avoir les clés pour décider si Joe Dumars mérite d'être considéré comme un bon GM. Même s'il faudra attendre encore plusieurs années pour savoir comment l'Histoire le jugera.

In Tay's interview with Black queer grassroots liberationist @maux_dumars, they open up with celebrating the beauty that is the Blackness of Detroit. The conversation continues with discussing relationships to old people + ageism and the strength that comes from interacting with older Black folk, food accessibility as it relates to money and (dis)ability status, connections between being low-income and eating disorders in Black children, the literal spirits of food and power it has on building intercultural solidarity, and offering descriptions of ways they personally nourish their spirit and feed their gender.
Doug Williams and Paul DuMars, two coaches who were together every step of the way during a 29-year tenure as football coaches at Catoctin, are the guests on the Final Score podcast this week in light of Williams' announcement last weekend that he was retiring as the Cougars' varsity head coach. Williams and DuMar share details with host Greg Swatek about the first time they met, an encounter that took place in an off-beat location and ended with DuMars landing an assistants' job with Williams a few weeks prior to the start of the 1991 season. They talk about why they worked so well together for nearly three decades, what they will miss the most now that they are stepping away from the Catoctin football program and what the next chapter of their lives might look like. Lots of great stories and memories, even a few laughs, are shared.
