Miles
Hashtag stump miles. Would you rather lose to Ryan?
Ryan
Has he already been stumped?
Charlie
I have been stumped.
Tyler
We could stump someone more than once.
Ryan
Okay.
Miles
Would you rather lose to Ryan in a game of one on one basketball or lose to Charlie in a game of golf?
Charlie
That's a good one. So losing to Charlie. Golf would be very embarrassing. If I lose to Ryan in basketball, I'm more just angry than I am embarrassed.
Miles
Gotcha.
Tyler
I think you should be both angry.
Charlie
And why would you be embarrassed though, of you point. I didn't say that. Right. Tyler just did.
Ryan
Oh, you. Oh, oh. Embarrassed for losing to Charlie. Angry. Losing to me.
Charlie
Correct.
Ryan
Gotcha. Okay. Yep.
Charlie
So it's basically do I choose embarrassment or I choose anger? I probably choose anger. At this point in my life, I pride myself much more win the golf game.
Ryan
Yeah.
Charlie
So I think I'd rather lose to Ryan.
Tyler
No, I was saying that if you lose to Ryan, you should be angry and embarrassed. I know you've talked a lot of shit about his basketball game, so you should be more. You should be embarrassed ending.
Charlie
But even if he beats me now, it's like he doesn't have a time machine. He can't take me back to my prime. It's like, it's like whoop dee doo. You beat an old man at basketball. This is. I'm saying whoop dee doo.
Ryan
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Charlie
If it was yeah, I'd rather lose to Ryan in basketball than Charlie and golf. Losing to Charlie and golf would be. I'd have to. I think I'd have to have a brain aneurysm.
Tyler
He is really bad.
Charlie
He's like. Yeah, it's not even. Like I say that. And then like we were to play and then I would actually be in danger of losing to him. I. I could have the worst round of my life. I still would be Charlie.
Ryan
I also think I'm probably better at basketball right now than Charlie.
Charlie
Correct. Yeah, that's what I mean.
Ryan
Yeah. And basketball is like, golf is a solo sport. Like, it's purely how, you know, how if you play good, you're gonna. You're gonna win that match 100 out of 100 times. Even if you play below average. 100 out of 100.
Charlie
But like, yeah, like if we have. In the basketball game, if we have a little giant situation where I'm Spike and he's the annexation of Puerto Rico and they happen to win one out of a hundred, I could sleep at night, I think.
Tyler
So if you guys were to play one on one right now, who would win?
Ryan
I think I would win. To be honest.
Charlie
I think I would win.
Miles
Oh, here we go.
Ryan
I just think in terms of speed and quickness, I think it just have the extra step.
Charlie
Yeah, but you're, you're, you're forgetting about brute force and hard and heart and grit. Like, you're just, you're not competing with me in the low block. All I have to do is back you down. I got enough moves.
Ryan
I think I'd probably pick. I, I'd probably pick it from you before you got to the block.
Charlie
You just wouldn't know. I'm in full control of my elbows. I chalked those babies up. Like to see you go for a pit pocket and catch one of these right to the jaw.
Ryan
That'd be offensive though.
Charlie
No, not if I'm just standing like this and you run into it.
Ryan
Well, no, that wouldn't be the case. That is straight up defense. Until I took it, like until I took an elbow to the offensive.
Charlie
I think it actually would be very competitive.
Ryan
No, I agree, I agree.
Charlie
What it'll come down to is who can make more three pointers.
Ryan
Correct.
Charlie
That's going to be a huge portion of it. And I probably am more confident in Ryan's three point game than my own three point game. But in terms of getting to the basket, without a shadow of a doubt, I have the upper hand. I'm like LeBron in his prime and in the pain playing you not like in the NBA, but like playing you like you're just not stopping LeBron from getting into the paint. Now. Honestly, I, I compare a lot of my game to LeBron James just because like three pointer is kind of spotty. You know, it's. Some days it's on, some days it's not.
Tyler
So is Ryan, but I'm always getting to the rim.
Charlie
You're left handed LeBron with a lot more hair.
Ryan
I would say I'm probably more like a Paul Pierce, Ray Allen mix. Like 09 Celtics.
Tyler
I was just saying because you look like Steve Nash.
Charlie
That's the. Yeah, yeah. That's the weirdest mixture because they're nothing alike.
Ryan
But like, I, like I can. No, well that, that's what, that's what I'm saying. You get the best of. You get the best. Both players. Like, I can shoot this.
Charlie
Okay, well then I would compare my game to LeBron, Kobe and Michael if they had a baby. Yeah, we're gonna do that.
Ryan
Puppy and Rayon are not even close to the best players of all time.
Miles
I'm a mix between Shaq and Mugsy. Boat.
Charlie
Yeah. Yeah. There you go. Yummy.
Tyler
Most average height ever.
Miles
Yeah.
Charlie
Yao Ming and Stefan Marbury is probably my game.
Ryan
I would say I'm a mixture of like AI and Greg Odin.
Miles
That'd be a lethal combo.
Ryan
Yeah, but Greg Odin, Ohio State Greg.
Miles
Right.
Ryan
Not Portland Trailblazers. Yeah, but there's a difference there.
Charlie
So it'd be. It would be. Who do you think is winning between Prime LeBron and a mixture of Ray Allen and Paul Pierce.
Ryan
Why? Yeah, I mean, the 09 Celtics did win.
Charlie
They did.
Ryan
They did win.
Charlie
The. They also had Kevin Garnett.
Miles
Just saying if you. If you like had both their powers combined so it doubles, then it maybe beat LeBron. But if it's just a mix between the two.
Charlie
Yeah, I mean you do have real. You like, you. You. You could have more three pointers. So I'm. You're going to make me two pointers and I.
Ryan
In this situation.
Charlie
Sorry.
Ryan
Yeah.
Charlie
Two pointers.
Ryan
Pointers. Yeah.
Charlie
You're. You're going to make me have to defend more of the court, correct?
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
And if I. I mean if I could spread the court, it's. It's probably looking like 11, eight scenario, maybe 12, 10.
Miles
I think it would be best of three games to 11.
Ryan
Back to back to back. Yeah, I'm for sure that's two out of three. If I lose. If I lose the first, I'm winning the latter two.
Charlie
I. I think you're underestimating my fitness level these days. Yeah, that's.
Ryan
That's fine.
Tyler
Okay. I. I think. I mean, this is. Obviously we're not gonna have the kindred bet next year. We. Now. Yeah, we can't. We can't just tease the patrons like this and then not do it.
Ryan
We'll find a court anytime, anywhere. Anytime anywhere. We.
Charlie
We could do it at my link.
Tyler
Perfect.
Miles
That would work.
Ryan
He's at home. Court advantage. That's the thing.
Charlie
That's a good point. No, it's not my home anymore. I'm next door. Whoa, hey, don't. Don't act like.
Tyler
How about that?
Ryan
If you're playing ball at the lake though, where are you playing at in the street?
Tyler
No, we'll do this. We'll make it a three game series. You each get to pick a location and then the. The third location, if need be.
Ryan
Patrons choose.
Tyler
Jared and I will pick a neutral site.
Charlie
Where are you picking for your location?
Ryan
I mean, the Viking ship, of course.
Tyler
You're gonna get into the Kindred High School.
Ryan
What do you think?
Tyler
They gotta give me a key.
Ryan
I mean, if it's anything like a way to go festing on anyone. I'm wait just waiting for my key to the gym. The town that we go fez in. Everyone has a key to the gym.
Charlie
Everyone in town has a key to the gym. But no one will let us in and play basketball. That's sick.
Miles
That's underrated.
Ryan
So yeah, my keys got.
Charlie
And if he can't. Is it a forfeit if he can't get us into the gym?
Ryan
Well, I just pick it. I'll just pick it.
Tyler
Yeah, I would just. He'll pick it.
Charlie
Trying to get any angle I can. Yeah, I mean, I'll let my game do the talking as I usually do.
Tyler
I think Jared should ref. I don't know the rules.
Miles
I think it's calling off fouls.
Charlie
Yeah.
Ryan
Oh, yeah.
Charlie
I don't want that.
Ryan
I know, but that's a dicey situation.
Charlie
Dicey situation for who? You're gonna call fouls.
Ryan
No, I'm saying you're gonna call follows if you get down.
Charlie
No, you've never seen me play basketball.
Ryan
Yes, I have.
Charlie
Not in the streets. I'm not calling a foul at all.
Tyler
Are you gonna be committing them?
Miles
Yeah, we'll see.
Charlie
I. I'll play. I. Hey, I will dance with whatever song you play.
Ryan
I'll find out my game.
Miles
Do the talk.
Ryan
But you're still talking. I'll get. I'll get a loc. I'll get a location.
Charlie
It's just gonna be. I. I really think it's gonna be a live and die by the three pointer for Ryan. If he ends up winning, it's because he'll hit more three pointers than me.
Tyler
Do you have a three point line at your lake?
Charlie
Oh, yeah. Okay, cut into the concrete.
Ryan
Okay.
Tyler
I couldn't remember.
Charlie
So we can't even move it. Can't even fib that it's. It's in the concrete.
Ryan
Is it regular?
Charlie
Oh, God, yeah. High school, though.
Ryan
That's fine. That's fine.
Miles
Well, Mikey guys up to.
Charlie
Well, then that's a whole other element I have to take into a mic. Flopping around. You might get a shotgun.
Tyler
This I'll rig. I'll rig a shotgun up onto the hoop.
Miles
There you go.
Ryan
Yeah, we're just. Yeah, we'll throw.
Charlie
Yeah, we need. We need net noises like the NBA.
Miles
Yeah, with a little love.
Ryan
Snap a lav.
Charlie
That's what it's gonna sound like every time I'm on offense. Is it make it take it or no? No, damn it, no, make it take it. Makes the game go much Faster.
Ryan
It does.
Charlie
Yeah.
Tyler
Well, yeah, we don't want that. We want suspense.
Ryan
Yeah. I think whoever wins, too, that the other person should get to cut the net down.
Charlie
So when I win.
Ryan
So if I win.
Charlie
If I win it. When I win in the Kindred, you want me cutting the nets down?
Ryan
I mean, if that's part of the deal.
Tyler
Oh, we'll have replacement nets ready.
Charlie
We don't even tell her.
Miles
Cutting the net, though.
Charlie
They just come the next day. It's just. The net's gone.
Ryan
No, Miles just brings the scissors. But I like the court that we're actually playing as chain is chain nets.
Tyler
Bring a grinder, angle grinder in there.
Ryan
Yeah, I might try and pick one with a chain net.
Charlie
It's fine.
Tyler
That is a cool.
Charlie
I literally used to do basketball practice at the Dyke West. You think I'm joking.
Ryan
No, it's just, you know, I trained.
Charlie
On those hard rims.
Ryan
That's.
Charlie
Yeah, that's great.
Ryan
I bet.
Charlie
Yeah.
Ryan
You train hard.
Miles
Oh.
Charlie
So when are we doing this? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna come in?
Tyler
Yeah, we should.
Ryan
I. I'm. I'm down.
Tyler
We call it the summer series. We'll do one in June, one in July, one in August, so.
Miles
I like that.
Charlie
That's so drawn out. Yeah. Three months for 11 point game. All right, that's fine. Ah, it's so much time to think about a game, though. Like, if you lose the first round, to wait a whole month.
Ryan
It does kind of add another fun element into it.
Tyler
Yeah, I. I like it. I think it gives you guys time to. We can do press conferences in between. On Patreon, you have your own uniforms. Yeah.
Charlie
So now I gotta start running. God damn it.
Ryan
It's full. Full court too.
Charlie
Guys.
