WrestleMania Preview Podcast

Fitz welcomes the 'marks and milfs' to a special edition of the NYMWS podcast show. The marks should definitely tune out of this one because the NYMWS Tag Team Champions of the World don't know all that much about the current product. The most insightful preview came from a clip the guys played from Paul Scheer's How Did This Get Made Podcast? Paul's all over the Shane vs Taker bout and he's got the idea of the century for the match. 

This one could leave the listeners asking, "was this a passion project for Clay and Fitz?" 

Break Down the Blog Podcast 4.3.16

The NYMWS Tag Team Champions of the World got to work today to break down this week's blogs. 

Things start off with the Mets and Yanks, as they discuss The Metsies Blog (and Pod) and The Boogie Down Blog (and Pod). Some talk of the Bonds and ARod Are the Best BFFs Ever is included, and Fitzy also throws a pitch outside by asking Clay for the first ever fantasy baseball "Fantasy Minaj A Trois". Fitzy is also named the mouthpiece of Clay's fantasy baseball team on today's podcast. Clay's league mates have to be pumped for that. 

From there the talk shifts over to the ice for some Isles talk, where the partners in podcasting break down Fitzy's What About the Isles? blog. 

The dog chat continues with a breakdown of What About My Dog Buddy? and What About Them Orange Dogs?. The blogging broskis also make their picks for tomorrow night's championship game on the pod. 

With the losing plays that have Tommy breathing down Clay's neck out of the way, the other blogs were broken down (Swaggy the Victim, Coach Fitzy helps the Cavaliers, and You Have to Hate Male Gynos) to cap off the pod. 

What About Them Orange Dogs?

Being that upstate New York is technically apart of New York and the fact that both of New York's professional basketball teams blow, there's only one local option on the hardWOOD that provides an entertaining and successful product, the Syracuse Orange.  Do I find it strange that I've hung out with folks that live and die with Syracuse bball?  Hell yea.  Did it werry me when my psycho roommate in college used to wake me up on Saturday mornings by chanting "LET'S GO ORANGE" throughout the house?  Yes sir.  I mean...I'm a pro sports guy, but I always add a little Orange to the wardrobe this time of year to support New York's team.

Hell, does nothing exemplify New York more then Jim Boeheim and his basketball program?  Old guard that's bigger than the program, that does whatever they want, and can outlast most large scandals. Jim Boeheim is so untouchable he can even piss his pants and no one cares.  He just needs to make sure that he doesn't pull a Sheldon Silver, and Boeheim will be the head coach until he dies.

No one expected Syracuse to be in the tournament, let alone be in the Final Four, so there is nothing sweeter for the Central New York faithful than this run that they're on.  If anyone wants to go after the Orange and their success, just make sure you don't put it on Titter. Those Orange faithful will completely embarrass you on twitter, just ask Doug Gottlieb.  And no, unlike Roy Williams, Boeheim doesn't let losers like Gottlieb get under his skin. 

The 'Cuse are cumming into this situation exactly the way you'd want them to if you're a fan.  Facing the vaunted Tar Heels, who are heavy favorites, and who have already beat the Orange twice this season. That all just means there is zero pressure on Syracuse tonight.  Maybe even negative pressure.  Roy Williams is a head case that hasn't done his best work in recent years and this year will continue that trend.  

The 'Cuse will be lose tonight in H-Town.  Give me my cheating coach over yours, suck it Fitzy!  LET'S GO ORANGE!

What About My Dog Buddy?

I'm no college basketball savant. Heck, I'm not even really a fan. But like your average poser, I'm a big March Madness guy. I had Oklahoma and Nova both making the final four, and it wasn't because I sat around breaking it down. It's because I followed the "Fitz's Guide to Bracketology" book.  So I know what you're asking, how does the "Fitz's Guide to Bracketology" get Nova and Oklahoma into the Final Four? 

I liked Nova because the Pope has Coach Wright on his show quite frequently. Jay sounds like a good coach, and a better man. I also know that he wears some dope ass suits, and I can ride with that because I'm the fashion guy around the NYMWS parts (aka I don't rock the cargos). Following the "Fitz's Guide to Bracketology", that was all good enough for Nova to earn a final four appearance. 

Another key chapter in "Fitz's Guide to Bracketology" is the chapter titled "The Melo Rule". In this chapter I preach that you should always look for a guy who can take ish over like Melo did in 2003. This year our guy was Buddy Hield. I loved the on the court highlights this year, and I also loved the story behind the Boomer Sooner senior. I'm pretty sure this chapter hasn't produced success since the 2003 creation, but I'm persistent in following my guide. So here we are, 13 years later, and I have a new Buddy. (Haha LOL...get it?) 

Ok seriously, I know what you're asking now, who the heck advances based on your book Fizty? While good spots on Big Mike's show and a strong suit game can take you far following my guide, it won't be enough to get you past the "The Melo Rule". Give me my dog Buddy.

Oklahoma (+2.5) 77 – Villanova 76

Bonds and ARod Are The Best BFFs Ever

The Great thing about friendship is others opinions do not matter. Love you buddy and it was so great to spend time with you and your family. Give your daughters a big hug again from me. @arod #friendship #family

A photo posted by Barry L Bonds (@blbonds25) on Apr 2, 2016 at 7:38am PDT

On the eve of the 2016 MLB Opening Day, Barry Bonds dropped some explosive news on his Instagram and it's great news for all Yankees fans out there.  The fact that ARod is friends and #family with the Home Run King means one thing, ARod is poised for yet another monster year at the plate.  The fact that Barry has ARod's ear at all times is a scary thing for the pitchers around the league.  I don't care what anyone says, steroids or not, Bonds was the most intimidating force that our generation has ever seen, so if he wants to teach my clean up hitter a thing or two in his old age I'm all for it.  Hell, I'm all for Lord Barry joining King Alex in the Bombers lineup, who's with me?!?

-Clayton

PS
Could you imagine what was going on at that party they were both at??  Must have been a shit load of impromptu staged Facebook and Instagram pics with all of the steroids well out of view of the camera.  Bonds and ARod are sneaky candidates to be on the Mount Rushmore of social media must-follows, just non-stop entertaining stuff outta these two legends.

What About the Isles?

The Isles have six games remaining in their push to taste playoff pooten, and besides a one-off where they host the #SabresMafia, they'll be facing some of the Eastern Conference's most competitive teams. The puck will be dropping in Brooklyn shortly, as the Isles kick their six game April-push off with a matchup against Sydney Crosby and the Penguins. 

Starting today, and continuing for the next five, the Isles will have to fill the hole left by Hamonic's lower body injury. Zidlicky's no Hammer, but he's a veteran tool who has the experience that Cappy likes in this spot. The entire defense will have to step up as Syd and the Pens have hung five spots on their past two opponents. Berube's getting the nod between the pipes, and you have to like the call as he held the Pens to just one goal in the last meeting. JT and the boys didn't put the support on the board for Berube at the Igloo, but that changes today in Brooklyn. Look for the Isles to pick up a big two points, and a whole lot of steam for their playoff push today.  

ISLANDERS (+105) 3 – Penguins 2

Swaggy the Victim

Photo credit - Michael Buckner/Getty

With the debacle that is this current presidential race, I appreciate a story like this because it reminds me that not all is wrong in the world today. Swaggy is on video saying he cheated on his fiancee, and D'Angelo Russell, the cameraman/interviewer, is getting all the public heat because he violated the bro code. I worry about our future. But a world where Swaggy is the victim, and Russ is the bad guy, that's a world that not even Trump or Hillary can destroy. This is the stuff that makes America great. 

Seriously though, these guys are teammates. Where's the teamwork? They couldn't work together and draw up a defense against this situation. I mean, Friday is April 1st. How about a "got emmmmm, this was an April fools joke we were playing on Iggy Az. Swaggy would never cheat, we both love Ig. LOL. JK THO." Where's Byron on this one? Better yet, where's Kobe on this one? Can the Black Mamba take a break from signing shoes for one minute and help his boys out? I know you guys are trash on the court, but you're still professionals. You're all better than this.

p.s. We should have totally had KP secretly filming Fish this year. The old cocksman Fish would have made Swaggy look like a choir boy.    

You Have to Hate Male Gynos

NY Daily News - Chris Sommerfeldt, Stephen Rex Brown - Sicko gynecologist who sexually abused two patients avoids jail time

Damn you Robert. I got this belief that chics should only be going to chic gynos to get their boxes checked out, but I always keep that belief buried deep down because I understand how ignorant it sounds. Now here I got this creepazoid Dr. Robert Hadden fueling my beliefs. I feel like a racist. I hate male gynos. I can't separate this fuck from the rest of them, so I'm forced to hate all of them. And don't give me the "this could happen with a lezzie lady gyno" nonsense. Lesbihonest, lesbians are respectful. A girl that likes girls would never do something like Bob did here.  

I can just picture this loser down there checking shit out and asking this poor lady "so what do you do for work?" She replies, "professional dancer", and boom, he helps himself to a little taste. It don't work like that bro. When a lady learns that you're a gyno, she doesn't just whip out her stinky box and ask you to start inspecting it does she? I would think that's covered in gyno school. Maybe this perv was sick that day? Fuck this guy.
