The Round Up gets real with some ugly truths: Bob Chapek played the books, George Takei has William Shatner penis envy, again and again, the NFL referees screw up, plus more.
THE SPORTS ROUND UP
😳The bible described this type of family relationship in Genesis 4:1-16 aka, Cain and Abel! 🤦🏽♂️
We’re seeing the results of his hire and now a 1-2 record with Jeff Saturday. That one win? A fluke, and we all know it. Firing Reich is justified, but how it went down was disgraceful by telling him who he could and couldn’t start.
It makes you think Jim Irsay set him up to fail so he could fire him early in-season.

What’s worse? The stupidity of the player or the referees with another blown call? 🤦🏽
Stephen A. Smith slams cancel culture over viral Jerry Jones photo (clutchpoints.com)
Most don’t realize, but Stephen A. Smith was once a moderate willing to listen to both sides. Until he even realized he could become bigger by race-hustling. Most don’t realize the race-hustling industry is worth billions. He’s a sell-out to humanity for the only color he cares about – green.
It was still surprising to see Smith go from race-hustling to an unbiased take based on facts. However, that’s because he knows Jerry Jones. 🤦🏽♂️
THE SPORTS ROUND UP – THE COLLEGE SCENE
Hoyas and Ewing at a crossroads after loss to American (Washington Times)
Many issues with Georgetown go back to its best yet very racist head coach, Jon Thompson. For those who may not remember. He’s the man who stated he’d never recruit a white player. Yea, racist indeed.
His greatest player, Patrick Ewing, has shown he lacks the ability to be a head coach right now. The program is now pathetic and a caricature of itself. How low has the Hoyas basketball program under Ewing fallen to where a monumental upset loss doesn’t get national attention? That’s as low as it gets, yet Ewing still has his job.
That loss would get any other head coach at a similar program fired. They’re in a rock and a hard place with Ewing because he’s such an icon. Who’s suffering? The program and players. Georgetown brought this mess upon itself.
How Ohio State football makes the College Football Playoff (usatoday.com)
This college playoff system is a joke. It is possible to have a 32-team tournament, but a few prevent it – see SEC. It’s a good old boys’ club that controls all college football!
Part of the reason is two-fold. March Madness shows us that the top seeds rarely make the expected run because they determine the best on the court, and that’s what they want to prevent. It’s a fixed system limited to a handful of teams that dominate yearly. This means all the kids want to go to their schools. It’s criminal!
SPORTS GRUMBLINGS SPOTLIGHT
Breaking News – NBA star LeBron James SLAMS Media Bias! (sportsgrumblings.com)
King James speaks on meeting MLK and Malcolm X and talking about the importance of character, being black, LGBT, and more! This is the King at his finest, remembering, teaching, and demanding.
POLITICS, POP CULTURE, AND ENTERTAINMENT ROUND UP
That’s a debatable post. Even now, politicians like Maxine Waters are still acting as allies more than representatives of the people. She doesn’t care about protecting those who had millions and life earnings stolen. Instead, she’ll defend and save the man who helps fund her and other Democrat Plantation overseer’s campaigns.
Politicians won’t return most of the money, yet these same overseers will turn around and create class warfare. All the while, Democrats and the system protect these people. It’s not just the Republican Party. FTX validates and proves how corrupt our system is in who it protects. 🤦🏽♂️
Star Trek’s George Takei Responds to William Shatner’s Bitter Remarks (screenrant.com)
George Takei is jealous of Shatner, and over the years – if you look – you can see the various ways. He’s bitter that he never got his 15 minutes of fame on the show outside of one episode. In fact, he told them to make him a captain, or he wouldn’t continue with the movies.
Takei also supports pedophilia (see Howard Stern). The mainstream media ignores his controversial tweets. He’s a vile human being. Whatever struggles he had made him a terrible human being who some even question regarding pedophilia. He makes the world worse for everyone.
BALANCE SHEET RULES, NOT FEELINGS!
Unsurprising. Some conglomerates struggle with fantasy sports because of battles like this. A department won’t risk its budget for another; getting them to work together is like pulling teeth. Why? Their balance sheet judges them. If another department fails, they don’t blame them.
However, the department head has no choice when you’re the CEO. Chapek knew this, yet he was still enough of an idiot not to realize Disney auditors would see the lies he was perpetrating.
Another lie: they sent many Hulu Plus customers emails with a “rate increase” but told them they were entitled to ESPN+ and Disney+ at no extra charge.
Those subscribers were likely listed as “new subscribers” on both of those services. The world is changing with its entertainment needs and wants, and Hollywood, in some ways, is struggling to cope.
POLITICS, POP CULTURE, AND ENTERTAINMENT ROUND UP – TECH GIANT WOES
Alphabet must cut headcount and trim costs; activist investor TCI says (cnbc.com)
This is how it begins… good. The woke will inevitably wake up to reality or lose their comfortable jobs. Ultimately, every “woke” CEO must look at the balance sheet – see Disney’s, Bob Chapek. They can ignore it early on as Netflix, Disney, Amazon, and now Alphabet did. Still, eventually, the chickens come home to roost. Alphabet (Google) is learning this as well. It’s a business, and profit and growth are foremost every time. Why? Well, that will bring power, control, and influence; many “woke” conglomerates forgot that.
Tax Filing Services Are Sharing Personal Info with Facebook: Report (Newsbusters)
This is how it works: corporations will do illegal and/or unethical business transactions to profit from our data. They’ll only apologize if caught.
Only after the authorities caught them did they remove the pixel, providing Facebook with private data, not because they cared!
Where’s the government not only to punish with a seven-figure fine but to prosecute these felons? They’ll likely do nothing but take advantage to create regulations to control the crypto industry. However, most would let them get away with it. That’s the worst travesty!
