Rights To Ricky Sanchez: The Sixers Podcast

Once again, the CEO of the Sixers is in the crosshairs of the podcast, Spike gets his comeuppance as every team he's ever made fun of is in the NBA Conference Finals, we discuss Mike D'Antoni as the "lead candidate" for the head coaching job, new Sixers arena locations, a stunning relationship advice segment that involves bowling, having two favorite teams, and the reality of standing wiping. Enter to win an autographed pair of Under Armour Embiid Ones by midnight on Friday at this rightstorickysanchez.com/embiid. The Rights To Ricky Sanchez is presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook.

In the ultimate comeuppance, the Celtics will meet the Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals. We discuss who we'll be cheering for, who will shame the Sixers the most, and our picks for this ECF of nightmares. We talk about the prospect of running back basically the entire 2020 roster to keep the Sixers from fucking it up worse, trading for Terry Rozier, who Ben Simmons will shoot for. and who was really worse, Jahlil Okafor or Shawn Bradley. Wow this is dark. The Rights To Ricky Sanchez is presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook.   

After all the pain they’ve caused, we all win a round against the Sixers owners, as their arena plans get denied. Mike theorizes that this is one of the darkest Sixers times in modern history, we discuss Jimmy Butler’s success, Spike’s deleted tweets, the rumor about Billy Donovan and the Sixers, whether Embiid and Simmons are actually Top 15 players, and what you’d say to Adam Silver if you saw him on vacation. We’re also giving away a pair of autographed Under Armor Embiid 1s in Joel’s size. Just go to rightstorickysanchez.com/embiid by September 18th and tell us in 100 words or less what the Process means to you. The Rights To Ricky Sanchez is presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook.

An enormous conflict within the hosts on the only Rockets podcast, the Rights To Ricky Sanchez. We talk about Rockets vs. Lakers, which Rockets players would make the Sixers contenders, size vs. toughness, the collapse of the Bucks and what it means about the Sixers, the idea of trading for Chris Paul, a very heavy relationship advice question and a deep dive into the Lorenzo Brown mailbag. The Rights To Ricky Sanchez is presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook. 

"This is not Josh Harris' playground," Philadelphia City Councilperson Helen Gym told us. We discussed the proposed new Sixers arena that Josh Harris and David Blitzer are trying to get tax payers to pay for, and why they should buy it themselves with Helen. Mike tries to get a specific member of the front office fired, and we discuss Jay Wright shooting down the Sixers and Jimmy Butler's public love letter to Joel Embiid.

Never missing a chance for perfect timing, it was revealed this week that the Sixers are asking to use public funding to help build a new arena in Philadelphia. We discuss the outrageous idea, and how and why they want it to happen. We talk about the names that have been floated as Sixers coach, while we wait for front office upheaval. Finally, we discuss the NBA's strike, the responsibility of athletes, and clean out the Lorenzo Brown Mailbag.  The Rights To Ricky Sanchez is presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook. 

Josh Harris said he was going to do a deep dive into what went wrong with the Sixers and change it. Elton Brand, who is apparently not one of those things, gave some hints as to what might change. We talked about Brand's comments, the three key people he'll make decisions on (aside from the coach), and the constant ass backwards way the team decides things. We say farewell to Brett Brown, and Thea Gallagher, Sixers fan, Ricky person, clinical psychologist, assistant professor at Penn, and Director of the outpatient clinic at The Center for Treatment and Study of Anxiety joins us to tell you how to get through the pain of being a Sixers fan.

The Sixers fired Brett Brown on 4:59pm, August 24th, 2020. Brett was a good coach and a great guy and went through all of this with us. We'll have a full reaction podcast on the 25th, but we wanted to post our interviews with Brett. The first is from April of 2015, the second from Live Ricky IV, when he was inducted into the Process Hall Of Fame, in September 2019.  The Rights To Ricky Sanchez is presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook. 

The Sixers were swept in the first round by the Celtics, and the team thinks it can get away with just changing the coach. Nope! We explain why everybody gotta go. Alonzo Jones of the Corner Three Newsletter joins us to join in the fun. Thanks for listening Celtics fans! Fuck off! See the Ricky Bark In The Park shirt and join the team here.  The Rights To Ricky Sanchez Podcast is presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook.

We just tried to have some fun on this one. At least they didn't quit? Maybe? The Sixers were in the game, but go down 3-0 to the Celtics in their first round playoff series. Mike continues to do the podcast in darkness, and now lays out how dumb he thinks everyone is. For the second half of the podcast, we surprise Mike with a special appearance from Andrew Sharp of Greatest Of All Talk (which you have to pay for). Sixers Adam had to cancel so the Sharp surprise both delighted and infuriated Mike. Sign up for the Ricky Bark In The Park team for Providence Animal Center here.
