Financial capital financial USA.com. This is the gold shell misrepresented me on our latest triple it was not. Should catch up be placed on eggs. I said it can difference I just don't have a problem with it is it so it's a rarity but I'm not going to say that I have done it quite a bit actually a Swiss cheese omelette with a little with the with the little suite of catchup is not bad but I it's acceptable to me.

There's a plate of home fries, not hashbrowns, which suck home fries.

That's with like peppers and onions going to die in their if there's like the remnants of that look yeah that's okay that's all right but again can versus should very very different. I just wanted to make that clear. They should all it should be a felony in your eyes yet and that's fair and and and that's bad proceeding. All right, let's talk about the NBA with my friend. Cannot Edwards now describe them CBSSports.com. I thank you very much my friend for frying it out. Let's let's get to the will talk meant to be and let's get to first the Hornets before you get into free agency. When when you and I last communicated. This goes now back about 10 days or so the miles bridges news was breaking. It is sent, it I think the news kind of has stopped coming out when it is. I assume now ex-girlfriend tweeted out some pictures or put some pictures on Instagram that were just gruesome to see and the Hornets withdrew their qualifying offer to him so I'm just stupid.

I don't know how works in every sport. His days with the Hornets are over.

I agree I wouldn't I wouldn't go that far, the not sure that actually bring any news that with all okay. I thought I dread the day that they had withdrawn the offer that again there are plenty of people that expect it to be withdrawn. I'm not sure they're actually withdrawing it. And at this point I was again when we last talked about this.

I was one of those apartment no matter what you take him back right, I'm stuck. After couple conversations I've had with a few people I not so sure they're going to withdraw. Do I expect him to play this upcoming year. No. Do I expect him to be on some form of the roster because miles bridges is not going to have another offer. Most likely you will be it will be on the roster whether it is drawing a check from them totally different neglect like a very lengthy expect suspension. I think with him the markets not going to be there, and more importantly, I'm would not be shocked to see what happens on July 20 next most important date is his first trial date is July 20 and we will figure out what they're going to charge meant as a reminder they have already set up. He's already been charged with felony or misdemeanor. This is not the garden-variety domestic violence.

This is felony domestic violence so little bit different. They have enough evidence, especially with the Instagram post everything like that again. I think the big data we have to watch out for quite honestly, July 20, and then we'll see what yeah like it's it's it's not good for anybody. It's not good for his former girlfriend and it's obviously not good for him because it puts it really derails what looks like it's a look like was going to be a very promising career and may be he gets back to it and he rehabilitates himself and avoids jail time. Either way and tie gets back to the business of playing basketball and being a productive member of society. I don't want to diminish any of it and it's up it's bad for the NBA to see a rising star and I think he is a rising star in the league think it's it's bad for the NBA, as well as the Charlotte Hornets, where does it leave the Hornets, who are now led again by Steve Clifford which I'm sorry I chuckled but I'm okay with it but I think Clifford was bad to begin with the word as it leave the Hornets a a I would put it this way, if you expect them to win 4547 games. I would tell you that you have lost your mind right. I think that's that's your the Hornets effectively through no fault of their own lost their single loss or leading scorer last year and at this point you're talking about bringing on Mark Williams. Maslow bad in some really talking about makes public, back to talk about relying more on Gordon Hayward West 47 games and Hornets uniform in one season. Yet and still has not played in either of the playing games and been available late when they need it most. You have Terry Regier who kind of had one of those seasons that makes you think that is breakout year was more of the bubble and just practice Jim jumper things and then you have a mellow ball was probably the lone bright spot. I bear in a spot where I'm not sure what you can necessarily do improve and underline out a lot on internal improvement you're going to rely a lot on maybe some teams falling apart in group Chicago Cubs Cleveland may not be may not be as good but in terms of what ones are doing right now there's not much I feel confident in outside of the fact the probably went 40 something game 4243 and will see where they are compliant, the good thing is the playing game is going to be voted to become permanent, which I, like the playing tournament. I'm really assertive and add some excitement. I hope the NHL ultimately does the same thing.

Even though the NHL is a little bit more of a crapshoot on a game to game basis, but which the NHL would do that. I love you get to some other things and we will start with a you mention summer league. So let me ask you two things about summer league. The first is was Apollo bank Carol really that good that the Orlando Magic said you know what we've seen enough you're done playing yes well it's a little bit of both. Because you see a lot of these guys get hurt in these games and then it becomes a hate is more important for you to install what were going to do for the coming season and all. Emily August September October and have them available for that sideline with an ankle injury and not have any conditioning coming intrinsic I get back Carol's green, dare I say Weber like an he's been falling. He's been better than I thought, is a grow. He's been much better of all distributor and quite frankly I'm wondering why we didn't see more.

This quality was again using just your excellent. We did see the past. The one thing we might going into the draft the way I looked at it. Jabari Smith was the best athlete Chet Holmgren probably had the best ball skills. Skill set, but Apollo bank arrows body and the fact that he is a good but not great shooter, but has good midrange ability is a great I think he's a great pastor. Not a good passer like that's why the comparison Weber worked for me didn't quite have the body of Weber but I think he's got more game away from the basket. Then Weber had the my only question was, what he be quick enough to play the modern NBA game because he's going to get matched up on players who are quick manual get matched up with Jabari Smith, whose quicker than bank Carol but holy cow, the heart, the total package man. He is also yeah and and at this point he looks like more mature back to see a few more All-Star games and Jabari Smith. At this point still needs work on his handle and Chet Holmgren, who we all know his biggest efficiency is 10.

His body was found pounding of an 82 game season. Plus like ghosting. At this point. Paolo just looks like he's going to be ready to go and if your team at the Hornets whose weakness, Micro Center center or big at this point to Lexington for company or you can read through Chet Holmgren by the wedding.

If you knew that yes, you can write through right is body type of strength left side. So here's my other question about some really should I read anything into it that Tyree Irving has been seen on a Laker summer league games while I think it's obvious that Mike I think it's obvious what car you want to go. We either want to go to LA Clippers little later. For whatever reason there is Jerry Weston.

We know what Jerry Jerry West, thankfully winning time and through other anecdotal stories like is again not only is there went on, but remember Jerry West threatened to quit if they traded Clay Thompson for Kevin love. Do you think that Jerry West is going to sit there and be a part of any sort of shenanigans that have been involved bringing Tyree Irving, the clippers that I don't.

I personally don't and the Lakers. They have two pics that are worth anything with 2027 2026 see them dealing those because there has to be in a post a D like there has to be a post Lebron life and unfortunately Lonnie Walker is not to be part of the covers not to be a part of those passages, not stars, so she doesn't have to be maximizing the Lebron I think their roster with Lebron right now because I don't believe Anthony Davis is in any way shape or form reliable physically. Now I think their roster is a play in roster at best and that's with Lebron with Kai Rick not like I'm not saying that they should go get Tyree. But I don't think that the 27 or 29 first round pick. I don't think giving that up should stop you from making your roster better. Of course, you must find a home for Russell Westbrook's contract. There's that. But also I would add to you. What's the best best guide.

How many wins that really add and those that put you on the line leader sound exactly that. That's awesome to be my next point. I think they can get think I legitimately don't think they can get to write a letter telling me the that Lenexa taken 80 I don't there's going to be like when we start having this conversation about how horribly yet think about outlets that are better than Lakers member you're talking about Denver, Dallas, the clippers on Phoenix, even without you, with or without it. Right now that's five and there's probably an egregious team probably stumbling to forget right of someone to remember right now so about five teams already.

Tyree is not making them a top like they're not making them more than the player planting because Tyree at the same point hopefully bought more than 40 games right like he's played listings Gordon Hayward has been the last couple season is the boss at the same time I do nothing exactly what we could all blame look at what's this, but still were talking about a guy that is not really available. He's not lifting the ceiling. If you're going to talk about getting to the ranch going to have to be like this. The only place I have.

I'm going and there's nothing to stop you like the place he doesn't have no trade and go wherever you want for your capital. So unless and the other thing is Sean Marks talking about direct does not want to deal him for cheap. So you're talking about a Laker steam right now that pretty much stuck in claim. And that's entertaining and everything, but at the same point they're not winning the title and content. Where is Kevin Durant going or is he staying in Brooklyn. Brooklyn has a leverage yes delivered the letter telling me that Kevin Durant, the guy was addicted to two things twittering basketball are foregoing is going to outright retired just to be a professional tweeter which mind you he has the money to do the Ptolemy does that cool. I believe unless he's really be willing to walk away from the game. I think he's got a leverage in specificities on contract final thing. How encouraged where you buy back shares her last night. I'm hoping I'm hoping and hope that they hold onto this lien, but I feel I feel uneasy about this. Mrs. leave right now. I may need to text you about this after the All-Star break because this feels familiar, where the phrase like the freeze and calculus and I will pass us.

They will trip us while we run and they will last the euro. Now the brains are good. The Mets went seven weeks with no matchers or he comes back to the second story was amazing last night.

Jacob has thrown as many pictures as you have for the Mets this year and they still have the best record in the National League East which may be the best division in the that of the West is the best division as the Padres and the Giants are good to so much concerned you know when they get their two best pictures.

It makes everything better. While again this this also assumes that lecturers are not like in his high 30s and he might not. You might not see another Ohio State. These bionic we hope that all here's the deal.

I Axley thought about this last night, matchers or has entered into the Pedro Martinez part of his career where what needs is just some time off in the middle of the season and then he's fine. Pedro used to take. Basically August off at the toward the end and then he would be great.

In September can you afford to take August off a wave of velvet, but yours is already taken his time on these after seven weeks, but I'm hoping I'm hoping I'm choosing to believe right now that I find I don't I don't sense any evidence, sir.

Do we really need to go over the last 30 years and I understand that but I'll say I don't sense any confidence. Don't try to sell confidence when you can't.

I cannot I'm school I'm going to I'm just going to be quietly optimistic, likely, only I don't do a lot to do after I told to sit quietly optimistic and pray that this is a bit of a hole and I don't want to see what happens if their mama court, my friend not described in the fetal position, even after Mets 41 win over the Braves last night. Hopefully nothing they could do it again tonight, my friend. I will talk to you very soon. Be well, absolutely.

Doug is the amount you gotta follow twitter at not described as nothing at all optimistic about that. Zero. I will let see will hear from my man, Coach Pete, the router with the capital financial advisory group.

We are talking retirement. I coach simple. When we start tax planning and retirement should start as soon as possible because here's one thing out of taxes are not going away and so the game here is we know the rules. A lot of people want to ignore the rules or act like they don't are familiar with them, but virus those rules and so we get retirement. The region start taking some of their money out of your accounts so the secret here is to put a force field around as much as possible. By strategically moving summer on Monday to Roth IRA were some of the other vehicles that are taxed like a special life insurance policies can borrow against your money there and never have to pay tax on you wanted to build up inside your Space up there a lot of strategies here. The one strategy that does not work is ignoring it mature and not ignored the next 10 people will do for you your very own tax and retirement plan to help you minimize taxation with retirement 800-661-7383 only got his call or you can text Adam to 21000 for Coach Pete the road. I feel we have to time will score credit talks of positivity and not a full seal we might seem in Charlotte sure it's going to be fireworks Charlotte. Good time down there in Charlotte. But before we get to Charlotte let's take care of today and tomorrow what your Amazon prime days deals galore, sir. Well yes yeah not alive, not really sure everything that's available today and tomorrow. Amazon prime days. Yeah, by all the toilet paper. You will used to be a big deal.

It really did you find it in Phil's tissue paper like a month into the pandemic. My wife bought a giant box of toilet paper. Okay go on under how much you paid for. I was an outrageous and there had to be 500 roles to buy a pallet. It seem like it. Yeah no one 500 but is probably €250 November the lot that was deadly was pregnant individually wrapped two other very nice. You still have some know it was like a month into the pandemic.

Yeah, but I was like March 2020.

Yes I say yes still got some Lego grout router that you can find a river that will nowadays catch up with Dr. what days it was July 12. There's some deals going on. For example, you can get subscriptions to Paramount plus or stars for $0.99 for a couple months really goes the regular price for Amazon prime days. I really look to see Wells available out there, but I might explore because why not, why not yeah and he figured in the shop force or no are there like vacation homes. I'm sure there are.

If it's on not to buy but like to read different answer from Amazon.

Why not also.

Matthew Barry's leaving ESPN3 without seeing the daily fantasy sport lineup, especially during the NFL or even just you know the weekly NFL fantasy sports manner and Barry's been front and center with that announced today. This is his last week at ESPN that is. He's a very talented guy. He's not just a fantasy sports guy is like a comedy writer yeah so he might be going to do some awesome stuff like that. I'm wondering with the way for an dual draft kings of taken off even further.

Now that sports betting is legal in many states. If if he'll be picked up by someone like them because they also still do daily fantasy sports and there's an opportunity there for the way they break down the numbers and such. If that is an opportunity for him to do some gambling stuff potentially as well so I'm wonder if that's can eventually matriculate but I'm sure there is way gambling and send daily fantasy sports, as you can make money off that that's a prime opportunity for them to go do something else so question I didn't know this but bad boys for moving with Will Smith and Martin Lawrence yeah I haven't seen any of the bad boys movies have seen the first of what is see the most recent. I came out a few years ago, but what Lawrence did report today. I guess there are reports, SQL being delayed after Will Smith's Oscar incident or whatever, but barely those been debunked by Martin Lawrence is given to update today saying yeah things are on pace for the sequel to soak amount. I don't know what the release date is but bad boys for life that came out a couple years ago brought in $420 million worldwide so as they affect on okay but it's the first movie came out like it was at 99 I think the first bad boys movie came out, I don't.

I don't remember. I look, I know it's it's it was a very popular series and I like Will Smith and I like Martin Lawrence, but I just never saw the move. First was 9595 while the second one was 2003 most recent one. Bad boys for life is 2020 holy Still do Richard Jefferson officiated at summer league game last night for really yes four quarter now. He went through like the daily officials meeting and such of the summer league and the youngest, third, and therefore in the officiated corner of the basketball game here which one that he did but kinda cool for so that's an analyst of the game so to play the game.

Step into a different role and see it from an officials perspective because you have to view the game differently, you can't sit there and save in your head. Was that a good players at the right moves at a good decision you decide to see it for what it says opposed to trying analyzing it was a big attorney gives people a bit a bit of a different perspective. I need more of this he did next.

Nurse blazers. I actually think it's very cool. I think it's neat. They suck. Apparently he put a book called pretty early on, and obvious call.

Overlooking this thing with this is part of why I complain so much about the complaints it's a all sports have become very difficult to officiate right. Maybe baseball is the one sport that really hasn't changed right. Here you're not dealing with baseball is not a game of constant action. You are dealing with higher velocity pitching but you should be able to call balls and strikes.

That's the thing that obviously trips most umpires up but no basketball game is getting quicker and getting more physical hockey is faster and faster just as you just football those are just difficult games to officiate, which makes more sense to rely more on replay, but I think these guys do a good enough job they don't get all right do a good enough job like I'm not anti-replay, but I just think there could be a quicker way to do replay more than anything else to rely on. I think it's just a hard thing to do. I would want to do it yet to pay me a lot of money to get me to do that once that life not beneficial, you're never going to give praise.

I never give praise you are constantly going to be picked apart from other names right but it seems like the same guys do NBA player like the finals seems like the same officials do the finals every year and there is nobody that likes any of W extensions. Same thing happens in the NHL ravens in major league baseball to debit the problem visually baseballs are thinking giving Angel Hernandez postseason assignments for no reasonable peace. Tara everybody knows he bad he still gets postseason assignments if he knows that he's batting just like cleaning it is laughing at these as leanings into a lab.

You know what blogging about a long talking about me. This final note here that is being in the world of gaming. There's been a lot of rumor and speculation, rightfully so, about the classic N64 game gold by 007 being remastered and be put out on the Xbox consoles because there is a list of achievements that were put out earlier this year, so a lot of people were expecting recently to their for there to be an announcement about game release how people can get it.

So on and so forth. But that did not happen and apparently the reason for this is because the more that is sexy taken place in the Ukraine because of different studios or development locations around the world. I know there's some other games I had to get delay because production studios had to move, and so on and so forth. But the team lead dog us was one of you working on it actually left Microsoft so who knows what it means for the games apparently still a little bit limbo to remaster for an Xbox, but a lot of people are demanding it, wanting the game's I still think it's going to happen, but it may not come out as soon as people want man crush the great game. If anybody had an N64 if you had goal not you play that game for hours. I saw it in the like in the arcades of the same game problem. I will and I get Ms. Backman asked no centipede no I life I wish that they had those games available on Xbox. Now I think on nursing difference. Small consuls where they have all those games loaded up right where you can play all those, but I wish. Additionally, Xbox and download those games I play Pac-Man. I would have all those centipede Galley guy their employment played a little bit.

Asteroid asteroids are facing greater point space invaders also like breakout okay. I was that I was in the breakout like my videogame ability was basically Pong as a kid breakout kind of the same the same wrecking crew. June 19, 2006, but it all started May 6, 1997 with the announcement that the Hartford whalers were coming to North Carolina transition of heartbreak of figuring it out on the fly became split or look at the 25th anniversary of the presented by the Carolina listen now doing this every day now on the North Carolina Gen. assembly people. We could be having fun. Legally, having fun right as it was pointed out to me several times on social media outlets. Yet my book.

He thinks the North Carolina Gen. assembly. I'm sure they do people come on, let's do it. It's called a special session and let's push it through.

And let's all have fun at drafting the document.

I let's place bets by latest. Remember you have a daily thing is he stream original sponsor is not catch up manufacturers worldwide. This is brought you by the number 57 bets on the side of the Sesame Street.

You put catch about what you put catch up on. I generally do not use it all the franchisor go to. Obviously I don't know good French fries, which I prefer meeting okay we take fry running okay well I don't have to, but I don't franchisor go to cheeseburger always like a steak sauce states are better than catcher and I a Chick-fil-A sandwich perfect, will it what what I Chick-fil-A sandwich to play chicken sandwich catchup you're getting on eggs which I don't think I can and I can understand the fried chicken Chick-fil-A yeah people because of a little time to look at crazy people plates catch up on a Chick-fil-A sandwich. Then they do on eggs. I guarantee I guarantee I'll put a new pullout that is appalling, appalling, no grilled chicken is the fried chicken eat meat like chicken tenders trips catch up on chicken anyway. Chicken tenders, particularly launching an investigation do you go first. I think the Mets to win +17 bets are plus money yeah brains are better conflicted pitching by David Peterson is a lefty tonight. He struggled for while picked real. I think really well. His last start yet met Smetzer plus money very very good.

I one. You and I both want to baseball bats yesterday on the armored matchers it fits well. I want my cricket bat today. Rohit Sharma was the Indians taught India's top batsman okay in their one-day international was terrible.

Absolutely flat out terrible gathered managers to be sacked seriously. They got who was it, yes. Bummer claimed seven wickets in 44 bowls. I don't know.

That means you get 10 wickets before you're done batting okay. Any claim claimed 77 of them was at 66 wickets in 44 pitches essential bowls creates incredible bowling right there.

Sharma was easy didn't get anybody out. I know wickets.

England claim no wickets. It was a an absolute right away but I have no cricket to bet today so we will will give you a unopened championship wager. Tomorrow's wages will all be open championship Jordan speaker +1600 when okay I like Jordan's beef very much this week. Jordan's people when I +1600 600 Europe, I go back to women's Bureau okay UA for euro 2022. Gimme Spain and Germany.

There actually about to kick off your about our okay drawl, +240 droplet what is what is Spain +150 Germany is a +185 so should be a should be. Hector met Spain's loaded a wide sum that's on their own probably say that but journeys also there.

They're both very good to go to the Mets in the Braves today Francisco Lynn door three or more total bases at +310 okay Francisco Lynn door three or more total bases of +310 I am a summer league bowls where the wrappers at 5 o'clock. Don't knows plan. I think the bowls of +19 yesterday you had a part in the event that involved follow Ben Carolyn is not playing anymore. Unbelievable. Lets he do the next planned summer league basketball tonight. They do not only have the Lakers Clippers Lakers are getting for from the Clippers given the Lakers on the money line of +145 okay Lakers on the money line, summer league basketball +145, but I am now over 4000 units like it is insane. Hayes couldn't do enough damage case basically kept us afloat little bit about little bit hurt you through all the water to my ship where it +4225 board people just get on board again tomorrow. All of the wagers will be at the open championship golf. If you knew that what is enters the home of golf, catch up on a Chick-fil-A sandwich who doesn't do that to the Chick-fil-A people know that they give it to you to give it to you for the fries now hearing get the nobody ever asked that you want catch up on. That's it. No rush. This is the gold shell June 19, 2006, but it all started May 6, 1997 with the announcement that the Hartford whalers were coming to North Carolina transition of heartbreak of figuring it out on the fly became split or look at the 25th anniversary of the presented by the Carolina listen
