    I wish Mario Elie would have joined us as an assistant coach. I'm happy he's back with the Rockets.

    He is acting as commissioner of the Big 3 league I believe. Not sure that's a full time gig though, since it's during summers. He really just disappeared.

    Weirdly they are not clarifying this. With Calvin and Cayleigh still being in the studio I have no idea.

    Ah didn’t read properly, it says nothing about his exact role. Could be anything.

    ... and some of these dudes want Vernon on the broadcast. Max would probably start the broadcast by cussing just to say "hello" to Ackerman and then proceed to spit on the court and throw a brick at opposing players talking smack.

    Nice! Now we just need to add Joe Kleine as a sideline reporter.

    He was big 3 comissioner while broadcasting. Did they not renew his contract? Its not easy to find

    Correct. He just disapeared and never came back. I honestly think him & Worrell had a fallout

    Nah, I gave up on the WWE long ago. I just want to watch the young fellas play basketball... I've had enough drama the past few years -- I just want basketball. :D
