Thanks to owner Vivek Ranadive the Sacramento Kings are once again the laughingstock of the league!

| Episode 243: Kings Post Season Memories | 31 Mar 2023 | 00:23:54 | |
The Sacramento Kings are on their way to the NBA Playoffs for the first time since 2006. On today's episode I reflect back to 1996, the first ever game playoff game at Arco Arena. I share stories from that era and talk about how much easier life was without social media. I also reflect back on game 3 vs the Sonics in '96 and forecast what it will be like when the Kings play the first ever playoff game at Golden One Center. Here's what I do know, in '96 nobody had cell phones in their hands. In two weeks 18,000 people will have their cell phones out instead of clapping. I don't know about you, but I miss how much easier life was back in 1996. Bottom line, 2023 is a great one for Kings fans and no fan base in America deserves this more than Kings fans!

| Grant's Rant: 3-31-23 MLB Finally Gets It Right | 31 Mar 2023 | 00:04:11 | |
Opening day for MLB is in the books and I for one like what I saw. Games moved along, the A's and Angels played in 2:30, the Yanks and Giants 2:37. It's about time! No pun intended!

It is opening day in Major League Baseball. My question is why are there so many games in cold weather cities? Why are the California teams playing each other? Why are the Red Sox opening up at home where the temps may reach 40 today? Stupid!

Tonight the Kings can clinch a spot in the NBA Playoffs for the first time since 2006 with a win in Portland. The Trailblazers have quit on their fans by tanking the season. Pathetic and disgraceful!

| Grant's Rant: 3-28-23 Home Court Disadvantage | 28 Mar 2023 | 00:03:32 | |
As good as the Kings have been this season it is puzzling to think they are a better road team than home team. Last night in arguably the biggest game in the history of Golden One Center the Kings lost to the T-Wolves 119-115. The Kings are going to have home court advantage in the first round of the playoffs, but is that really an advantage? The numbers tell otherwise!

| Episode 242: Sports vs Society | 28 Mar 2023 | 00:20:59 | |
On today's episode I play part of Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO regarding sports. Bill makes some spot-on comments regarding what matters in sports and also talks about race and sports. I share some of my experiences from being in locker rooms and travelling with a professional team spanning 5 decades. My question is why can't society mirror sports locker rooms? The big reason is too many people are afraid to step out of their circle, their comfort zone, thus they stay stuck in the mud! In sports you are forced to be a team, to be around others with different backgrounds etc. The end result is enhanced education and an understanding of different cultures. Unfortunately, that principle doesn't apply to enough people in our society.

| Grant's Rant: 11-7-24 Kings Weak Bench | 07 Nov 2024 | 00:03:58 | |
The Kings knocked off the Raptors last night avenging their loss in Toronto over the weekend. Sac is 5-3 but the bench needs to start being more productive. It is currently the weak link on this year's squad!

Big game in Sactown tonight as the Kings host the Suns. The Kings look to snap a two-game skid and keep pace with the Grizzlies. Phoenix needs to win to stay in 4th place in the West ahead of the Clippers. These final ten games should be awesome!

| Episode 241: NHL's Pride Night Disaster | 24 Mar 2023 | 00:19:15 | |
On today's episode I discuss the NHL's Pride Night initiative and how it has backfired on the league. Several of the players from around the league have refused wearing "special" warm up jerseys to celebrate Pride Night. Many of the players have cited religious beliefs for refusing to participate. The Chicago Blackhawks decided to forgo the warmup jerseys citing Russian law that could make life very difficult for their three Russian players. I have said this for years....when pro sports leagues start moving into the political and social arena, this is exactly what happens. In this case the NHL has nobody to blame but itself for the criticism coming their way from the LGBTQIA+ community and their supporters.

| Grants Rant: 3-23-23 NBA Refs Under Attack Again | 23 Mar 2023 | 00:04:18 | |
Another night of NBA Basketball and another night of complaining about the refs. In Dallas, Mavs owner Mark Cuban filed a protest after the Mavs lost to the warriors by two points. Cuban feels the refs made a mistake in the 3rd quarter that led to an easy basket by the Warriors. In LA, Suns coach Monty Williams went on a post-game tirade about the refs after his team lost to the Lakers. No matter how you slice it, the refs and the constant complaining is not good for the league!

Another game and another injury in the NBA last night. Paul George of the Clippers went down with a knee injury and as of this recording we still don't know the severity, but it did not look encouraging. The Kings have 10 games left and seem to be locked in no worse than third in the conference. After that it's anyone's guess!

| Grant's Rant: Absurd NBA Scheduling | 21 Mar 2023 | 00:03:51 | |
Welcome home Sacramento Kings. Tonight they are playing their 5th game in 7 nights in 4 different time zones. Ridiculous!

| Grant's Rant: 3-20-23 Why The Hate on Rodgers? | 20 Mar 2023 | 00:03:50 | |
Why are so many fans upset at Aaron Rodgers? It seems like his likely departure from Green Bay has many people up in arms. If Joe Montana and Tom Brady can finish their careers with different teams, then Rodgers sure as heck can leave Green Bay. In a perfect world it would be awesome if great players only played for one team, but how often does that happen?

| Episode 240: Say Goodbye to 2006 Kings Fans | 17 Mar 2023 | 00:20:00 | |
On today's episode I reflect back on 2006, the last time the Sacramento Kings had a winning season. I talk about some odds and ends from 2006 and go over the roster from that season. The Kings won 44 games and were the 8th seed, losing to the Spurs in 6 games in the first round of the NBA Playoffs. Fast forward to 2023 and this year's Kings team. What a relief!

| Grant's Rant: 3-17-23 Cheap Ass NBC | 17 Mar 2023 | 00:03:42 | |
The Kings are assured of having their first winning season since 2006. They are on the way to the post season for the first time in 16 years, but I guess that isn't good enough for NBC and Kings TV. While the team is kicking ass on the road the announcers are in a room in San Francisco. Just embarrassing for all parties conferenced. NBC should be ashamed of this decision and the Kings need to step in and stop this nonsense! Embarrassing!!!!

| Grant's Rant: 3-16-23 Question For You Mets Fans | 16 Mar 2023 | 00:04:03 | |
Do you know anyone that watches the World Baseball Classic? How do you think Mets fans feel about the WBC this morning? Their star closer, Edwin Diaz appears to have a significant knee injury suffered last night in a celebration on the infield after getting the final out with the Dominican Republic. Again, I ask Mets fans, what do you think about the WBC?

The Kings lost to the Bucks last night but gave the best team in the NBA all they could handle. Yes, there are good losses and the Kings had one last night! They lost to a better team who has a true superstar!

| Grant's Rant: 3-13-23 NBA's Biggest Whiners | 13 Mar 2023 | 00:04:10 | |
The Kings beat the Suns Saturday night for their 40th win of the season. If you watched the game, you saw one of the league's biggest whiners in Devin Booker. The guy never stops. Same with the Mavs Luka Doncic. Can we please go a minute without you guys complaining about a call? Draymond Green may be the king of the class when it comes to complaining on every call, but the whining is getting out of hand. The league really needs to curtail all of the talk on the court!

| Episode 239: ESPN Using Race Card Again | 10 Mar 2023 | 00:22:11 | |
On today's episode I talk about the criticism directed at ESPN's Kendrick Perkins for his comments regarding Nikola Jokic. Perkins insinuated that Jokic has won MVP's because he is white. This past week JJ Redick called out ESPN and Perkins for his "absurd" comments. Redick is an employee of ESPN, so it was noteworthy that he called out ESPN's First Take program and colleague Perkins. The bottom line is people of color need to stop using the "race card" just to support their argument. It is very divisive in my opinion!

| Grant's Rant: 3-10-23 Van Vleet Making Noise | 10 Mar 2023 | 00:03:45 | |
Fred VanVleet was fined 30k by the NBA yesterday after his critical comments about the officiating Wednesday night in the Raptors loss to the Clippers. VanVleet called out Ben Taylor and said it is an ongoing thing with this particular ref. Bottom line the officiating has not been good for the most part this season and it is one more area the league needs to be better.
