I apologize for Zo’s audio being quieter than mine. We were working on Spotify greenroom (I need a new computer so I can record on desktop again!) for the first time and ironing out some issues.

On this episode I was joined by Twitter friend @Tweets_By_Zo who you may know from the Rights to Ricky Sanchez podcast, the Corner Three Newsletter and his new Eagles betting podcast with Bleeding Green Nation Odds and Endzones. We discussed whether Ben Simmons will actually report for training camp next week or ever play for the Sixers again or if he is just bluffing. Next we talked about the lies from Doc Rivers and Stephen A. Smith on First Take and some other fake Ben Simmons rumors from Twitter. We basically tried to wrap our brains around the entire thing and our brains hurt now. Lastly I asked Zo his prediction for this Monday’s Eagles vs. Cowboys showdown.

In the next segment Rockets fan and blogger @Itamar_17_10 joined me to discuss the absurdity of a John Wall for Ben Simmons trade that was reported earlier this week. We sent NBA reporter Chris Sheridan to jail too. Disclaimer: The You Know Ball podcast does not support prison or the prison industrial complex, this was just a bit.
