My Segment on The Mighty 1090AM



Got to jump in the studio on 1090AM with the Scott & BR show. Had a blast and learned a lot. Can't thank Scott Kaplan enough for having enough trust to throw me on live radio.

I started slow but if I knew what the first question was going to be I would've hit that question over the mountains. Instead I rambled about pretty much nothing but got back on course when my ADD stopped firing at normal rates.

Self Grade: C+
Needs: Should probably prepare next time instead of just going winging it. Probably won't prepare but the thought is there and that's what counts.

Tunsil Overblown Drama




(CNN)It's turning out to be a very expensive bong hit -- and a harsh reminder of the perils of social media -- for Laremy Tunsil. 
The University of Mississippi offensive tackle -- an early favorite to be the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft -- slipped to No. 13 after a video emerged of him smoking marijuana through a gas mask.
The clip was posted on Tunsil's Twitter account, which he closed shortly afterward. But by then, the video had already gone viral. Tunsil said his account was hacked.

First, Tunsil and his agents/PR team are complete idiots. Tunsil wasn't hacked. He either had a simplistic password or more realistic left his social media account open one day and left it in the wrong hands. 100% chance his password is the exact same for every account he has like every other person in the world. His PR Team/Handlers did a horrendous job doing their specific job of saving Tunsil from his own brain/mouth. 
Second, people are only scared because he used a mask to smoke. Marijuana is very much a part of our society and should be legalized/taxed but that is for a different rant. You're mentally unstable If you think any of the other guys that got picked before him haven't smoked weed. 
Third, the only people that are stupider than Tunsil and his PR team are the 12 GM's that passed on him. He will be a pro bowler multiple times in his career and you will remember draft night as much as you remembered others that had questionably character because of use of marijuana (Warren Sapp and Randy Moss)
Also, I don't trust people who don't admit to or didn't experiment in college. Those people are squares and probably are hiding the most issues in their closets.
Tunsil can play football at a very high level and weed is not a big deal. Sorry.



P.S.  Ronnie Stanley will be picking up my trash while Tunsil will be flying to Hawaii for another Pro Bowl.
