The Unrestricted With Vex and Quaalude

Bob tries to talk about Brendan Soresby but gets voted off the island and our special guest Dusty Graza from Dunk Digest and Spurs Report goes very deep into draft analysis with Jeff. This is Jeff’s happy zone, folks, so sit back and enjoy our in house 5 year old talking about dinosaurs, I mean NBA draft picks and future stars. If you were expecting a continuation of the Harper-Fox drama, please move on and come back after the summer hiatus.

Well, we are sure you are now aware that Spurs lost in 5. Congratulations to the Knicks team. Perhaps this may have been the best result for our hometown boys, who are now men. This run highlighted things that we possibly wouldn’t have seen if we dropped the WCF. Biggest questions for Spurs fans are about Mitch and Fox, so we talk about that. Though Jeff makes a home improvement analogy and manages to stick the landing, sort of.

We get Walter to come back, and it was really early so we started off hot. One day out we needed some group therapy to process what happened on Wednesday night. And Jeff and Bob hate Knick fans. Phil helps us out on looking forward and Walter doesn’t know what to predict. By the way, go to the website to leave comments and we are going to give you a chance to be a part of the show as we open up the voicemails. Yep, strap in.

Here we are again. After yesterday’s pod we decided to get together post Game 3 if it turned out well for us. It did and we did. Wemby does Jalen dirty, but I think it is worth it, and since he doesn’t have a Supermax deal yet, we may need a GoFundMe to pay the fine. Kat goes silent (meow), and the Spurs may have turned this series back around. We will see. Yes, we are homers, though Phil started off with a bucket of ice for us. And we are on the cusp of rebranding, so stay tune...

We go deep into World Cup analysis. It’s once every four years, and it’s here so we talk about it with Elliot, Phil’s brother. But first we try not to get too morose about being down 0-2 in the NBA finals. Then we wrap up looking forward to Game 3. By the way, if someone can give us a line on getting that Wemby park sketch, we will pay money for it.

Well, what would you think we would do after a Saturday Game 7 win in the Conference Finals. Get together first thing on Monday morning, of course. Dylan Lieck from the Slobberknocker Sports Podcast joins us again to break down the X’s and O’s from Game 7 and look forward to the NBA Finals. What a weekend. And if you are in the business of horn repair in South Texas, business is booming (see what we did there). Then at the end, perhaps a little ice gets thrown. Enjoy the ride, folks. We are planning to be back later in t...

Ok, we decided after game 5 to record the day after Game 6 if we won, so here we are. What a turn of events for the team, for the city and for our optimism. And less exposure for the OF girls right behind the Spurs bench. Did we beat down OKC enough to take the fight out of OKC? Where was Shai last night. Have Mitch and his staff found the right ingredients for the cauldron (sorry, sisters). We will see over the weekend.

Well we get together for a mutual support group after the game 5 loss and commiserate. Yep, we talked about nothing else, except one mention of penis extenders (it'll make sense, I promise). Yep, we have issues and this is still a mountain to climb. We are not losing hope, and will be back after Game 6 to preview Game 7, because by good there will be a Game 7. Oh yeah, and somebody get Wemby a bed!

Well, Spurs take Game 1 in 2OT, so perhaps they have more poise then any of us gave them credit for before the playoffs started. Wemby gets mad and plays accordingly. Castle needs a better handle on the ball, but it all works out in the end when you have someone like Wemby who just hates everybody on the court not wearing a Spurs Jersey. Oh yeah, and congrats to Aaron Rai.

Yes, the Spurs won. Wemby came back from this ejection and 3/4 game suspension (get over it Wolves fans) and balled out for the first bit of the first quarter. Then stuff happened. So we talk about the game. Jeff reminisces about backyard basketball on a 5ft rim and we talk some PGA championship. We are searching for a moniker for Phil. If you read this description you are invested. What do you think we should call him. The previous moniker has been vetoed by the Security Council.

Well a tight loss that was almost turned around by a last second three. Shooting was bad, but there were bright spots, just not enough of them. So we talk about it at length. Then Jeff gives us a run down on his knowledge of manicures and nail styles. :-). And we still can’t bet on sports in Texas.

Well, the Spurs finished off their Round 1 opponent so of course we are happy about that, and have already starting planning for the dynasty. Jeff was at the game and provided some perspective on the crowd. Apparently a round one win means fire in the streets for some fans though. Yep, we spent a lot of time waxing poetic about this win. We briefly talk about Silver’s new 3-2-1 anti-tanking proposal and are thankful this was not in place a few years ago.

And there was a gambling scandal on top of a gambling plea de...

Somehow we started talking about Mel Brooks and the announcement of our Spaceballs sequel. We do transition back to the Spurs and the NBA playoffs and after a little bit of catch up with the rest of the games, we come back to our Spurs and their Game 1 performance. Maybe Wemby is an alien. No one should have that body sense, let alone him. And we head into Game 2, Go Spurs Go!!!!

By the way, we think we slathered the mics in schmutz so it seems we may have finally conquered the clicks. More work to be...

We recorded a little extra for the week for you. We have a quick (well not so quick) discussion about our end of year awards for the Spurs. We invent some new awards but have a nice wrap up on a season what was unexpected but oh so magical.

Well, what else are we going to talk about on a Monday morning after the most storied place in golf, if not the entire sports world. Rory holds on after one of the worst performances off the tee to win his second and back-to-back Masters. There were a lot of challengers but he did what he needed to do on the weekend to hold them off to get a spare green jacket.

Spurs finish the season with a loss to what everyone assumes will be their second round opponent in the post season. Was it a mistake...

We start with the most spiritual sporting experience in the world, The Masters. We record as they get teed up and hopefully get this out before you see the end of Round 1. Go over what we think of who will win and where you might want to put your money, if you could bet in this state. Then we talk alittle NBA and Spurs. Also, a little look back at the NCAA tourney.

We propose new stat categories, the Stock and can we get an add for the never minds. Where are we realistically for the post season and where are we weak? Duke with another meltdown and this time it costs them. And then we have some breaking news for those looking for work. And finally, Happy Birthday Jenness!!!

We pick up out hypothetical Wemby for an entire NFL franchise trade debate right after we review gross anatomy with Jeff. Yes, we gush over Wemby and the whole town is. Really. Then we get into some Bracket conversation talk about broadcasters and bow ties. Was a fun one. Tell us your classic movie you think Jeff has never seen.

Well, its the beginning of March Madness so we begin talking about Jamaica and the World Baseball Classic. Then we talk Spurs and THEN we talk about brackets, and our story lines for the tourney. And shout out to Bill Simmons who picked up our thoughts on beds for NBA players. :-). Maybe he's a listener.

Phil and I come up with a puppy bowl like idea of counter programming for the NFL Combine. Probably not politically correct, but still kinda fun. Then we talk about the Spurs and where they are, and Jeff feels bad for the players. He has general empathy and we love them, but kinda just wanted be nice to the players. And then we look at the rest of the league for a while, and then some more. Then we close with some non-Olympic talk and then go home.

Well, we also spend some time talking about Golf, redemption, flow state and how to screw up your opponent. Then we try to solve tanking after we decide not to talk about it.

Yep, not much sports news and we still yapped for almost an hour. Bob did not nap during this episode.

Bob rants about the WWE and the Draft, while Phil and Jeff go deep about the Spurs and where they are as they release Sochan to greener pastures. We loved you Jeremy, sort of, and we do wish you the best. And we are working on rules for the new sport of … cockey.

NBA trade deadline just passed and the Spurs wowed with … nothing. There were some other movement, but nothing earth shattering. HOF snubs and then we talk some Super Bowl outlook. And we all are surprised that there is this thing happening in Italy called the Winter Olympics. We are in South Texas, no ice, so no visibility.

It's cold here in San Antonio, milk and bread had a run with bare shelves out there, so what do we do. We record a podcast. Jeff had to bow out so it was just Phil and Bob. Yes, Phil is back. So we talk some NFL and the worst taunting call of all time. We talk briefly about what may be the greatest college football team of all time, and Phil bemoans the Spurs inconsistency and sets a realistic goal for the Spurs in the postseason.

We start with an inane argument over who is from a city. Yes, the first five minutes are that. We apologize, and those responsible for that have been sacked and replaced with llamas. Then we get to Wally’s latest at the Circle K and only then do we talk about football.

Ok, we are going to start the new year as a new sewason just for tracking purposes and we get off to a raring start with Spurs talk!!! Yeah, the CFP is cooking, unless you get the bye, the NFL playoffs are finally here with a slate of teams that really don't excite the masses. Patriots, Jaguars, Seahawks. Who will emerge. Well we don't talk too much about that. Wally had to miss the first week but will be back next week. Happy New Year.

Well it appears that non-alcoholic beer has generally the same effect on the talent as alcoholic beer. So we may have meandered a bit. We definitely talk about the Spurs and the NBA Cup and now our expectations. Then we talk CFP and no one will take JMU or Tulane, even with the points. Then Walter forgets what we talk about as we go over the NFL!

CFP is set. Notre Dame whines. Cowboys look like they are more done than Thanksgiving leftovers. We dive deep into our thoughts about the CFP, totally insulting one of America’s founding fathers. And of course we take the temperature of where we are with the Spurs and the new rumors of a Giannis trade?

Weird week after what seems like the longest weekend in sports. Cowboys win was so long ago, do we even remember how ok their defense looks as we look forward to a must win game with the Lions. We talk about your wife’s drama queen friend who we always talk about but is all about the drama, even when it’s fabricated. Spurs look good without Wemby so where are we going this year? By the way, Walter is slaving over a roller dog machine, so its just Jeff and Bob.

Ok, Jeff had a cold, so we apologize for his snort-sucks. That is a word. We solved most of his microphone clicking and we got that. We then talk a whole heaping of football, and then Jeff says something amazing, bring Kawhi back. Birds aren't real!. And who had St. Mary's in their preseason rankings.

Phil, apparently the Brown Bachelor according to sources, joins the show and Jeff and Phil go WAY deep on Spurs and the NBA. But we first talk about the Longhorns and some Aggie prospects and Phil gives us a betting insight for the Heisman. We talk about betting in baseball and wrap up with some NFL stuffs. We are replacing Jeff’s microphone as it appears he has broken it. Sorry about the clicks. It’s Jeff’s fault.

Well, in the aftermath of the Prop A and B vote for San Antonio, what did you think we would talk about? Jeff watches Mayor Jones in action, and we talk about what is the next hurdle for us to clutch our pearls about. It's our weekly discussion about where we are on the playoff hunt, then we talk some Cowboys. Just another manic Friday, folks.

Richie comes back to us for an episode and we reminisce and then talk about the Cowboys for a bit. And after an epic World Series we have to talk about that and Jeff gets confused. Today (probably will be over by the time you listen), San Antonians go to the polls to show their support or not support for a new arena for San Antonio and the Spurs. Go Vote.

Ok, we go Wally less and hoped to have a special guest. Best wishes, our friend. We start with baseball after an epic 18 game performance. Oh my god. Then we talk about the spurs and their hot start. Was there collusion on the schedule to give us a cupcake start ahead of the Arena vote? How about collusion between crime families and we give you a PSA about joining private poker games. Just don't.

Next week starts the NBA Season so we run through the over/under win totals for the Western Conference. There are going to be some bad teams. We discuss some college football and maybe Arch can see a corner to turn, but the jury is still out. The jury may also be out on the funding for the Spurs Arena, but we will see. And then we talk about Jeff and Bob's favorite Berserker, Cam Skattebo. Perhaps he has found a way to game the concussion protocol, but how is he not in it every week.

Someone missed their alarm this week, so its just Walter and Bob. We talk some Eagles issues, including Walter changing his tush push position. Alittle Spurs talk and Project Marvel discussion. And if you are Cam Skattebo, we love you and are worried about you. And do not high five the official.

We had a rousing quick discussion this morning and recapped the boorishness of the American fan at the Ryder Cup. Yes, they sucked. Then we talk some college football and NFL and we talk Project Marvel as well. Have a great weekend, folks.

We start with Ryder Cup stuff. Day 1 is underway as we record. Tickets are still expensive, and we hate ourselves more than we hate the Euros. Yes we then pivot into NFL news and Cowboys looking down the barrel of an actual run defense and a passing attack. Sorry, Jerry. And Walter wants Texas Tech and UTSA to stop trying to compete in football but pick something else to be on the national stage. Bob voted dressage.

Ok, given the climate this week, we went alittle political to start this morning, so please indulge us. Then we talk about the NFL and who is a fraud and who is real. Chiefs on the ropes? And Wally gives us the man on the street perspective on Prop A/B.

Wally is investigating strange things at the Circle K, so Jeff and Bob go without him, NFL weekend was fun. Cowboys win against the Giants, but give up 450 yds through the air. Miss Micah yet? It’s a quick one and we get out real quick. Enjoy your week.
