Are MJ comparisons even valid??
Hi jonny! Its spicy brix!
A bit early to stamp that.
not at this point of his career because we are already capping his potential and we are going to be looking for an opportunity to say he’s a failure
Yes MJ said they are
Tbh I don’t think there’s no more he’s the next Michael Jordan by the times ants in his prime he’ll be competed to someone more closer to his time like Lebron or Kobe
For Jordan to have two of his sons in the league having played at such a high level, generational inspirational, shout out to Jimmy the Butler and Ant-Man
Neither has a title
@@shinsukecorbin425 Yet
@@shinsukecorbin425 Jimmy likely missed his window, but Ant is just getting started.
Jimmy the Butler?!? Cool nickname
Jimmy not talented like mj and ant yall gotta be heat fans pushing that mess
Lebron is retiring and people still looking for the next MJ...now you know who's the goat
Michael Jordan built the NBA. The fact we're still talking about who will replace him 20 years after Jordan stopped playing is proof of this along with the fact we don't have this type of discussion about any of the other great NBA players. No discussion whatsoever about the next Bill Russell, Wilt, Magic, Bird, Dr. J, etc. It's always about getting above Jordan.
Ótima analogia... Parabéns pelo seu comentário...Penso igual.... Jordan GOAT
He reminds me of a young Kobe if anything. He pays respect to the past generations, but is uber confident. He constantly draws parallels to older greats, and is very hungry with a mindset of winning. The main difference is only that Kobe wasn’t able to start his career as a first option in his early 20’s
@neezduts Good points. Acts like Kobe, looks more like MJ. lol. To be fair to Kobe, the only reason he wasn't a first option at 22 was because he had prime Shaq... Ant wouldn't be the first option either if prime Shaq was on the Wolves.
@@jonnyarnettI agree. Kobe is discredited for not winning a fmvp until 09, but who would win one next to Shaq at the ages of 21-23? Especially peak Shaq who has arguably the greatest peak ever and in my eyes a top three peak, and is one of two of the most dominant players ever. Also wanted to throw in I love your videos, and watched your ultimate top 10 videos and greatest stories video multiple times
First option ??? Kobe didn't start at all when he came to the Lakers,remember Eddie Jones had that starting position.
@@user-be7tc2bd6e I meant start his career as a first option, like as in being a first option in his early 20’s. My grammar was bad lol
@@neezduts_ Oh,okay,no problemo,amigo.
I like the Jodan comparison. I just can't stomach the ESPN reporters saying that they "finally" feel like they are seeing someone Jordan like. The Kobe disrespect is unreal.
Kobe's foot as "one" of the greatest is set in stone and nobody can take that away. However, the eye test on the style of ball this kid plays is something special. The footwork and finesse is impressive, if he can maintain that level in the finals when that moment comes is yet to be seen. To make premature comparisons like this at 22 is ridiculous but he's got a long career ahead of him and I think we're in for a treat
So true. Kobe's style was exact copy of Jordan, almost identical but nothing similar when compared with ant. But his face is very similar though :)
I hate when others compared to MJ but damn it cant help it with Ant. God given special talent
Ant just scored 43 on the Nuggets in game 1. Arguably the BEST NBA team RIGHT NOW. He IS the FACE of the LEAGUE.
Antman reminds me of 80s athletic MJ. 🔥
MJ... hmm... sounds familiar. Did he play when TVs were black & white?
In this vid there were so many mirror plays of Ant and MJ with hair lol. The MJ/Kobe mirror plays are bald bandit on the 2nd threepeat.
More like a smaller Giannis. Definitely no mj
@@Alwaysavictim4367Giannis hell no 😂 he’s a much better shooter
@@jonathank786 Correct. Giannis ain't in the convo anymore. His window has closed.
Let Jordan be Jordan and let Anthony be Anthony, thank you.
Did you watch the video at all? This stuff has been and will go on.
You mean Anthony Jordan? 🤭
Here after he just hit the dagger on Denver in game 1
Here
Rule of the world: Once you see Jon Arnett, click as fast as you can.
His moments starting to make noise
I think it’s a little early for the comparisons, but he certainly looks and acts like him
Personally I don’t think they’re comparing the talent level. Just his play style and athletic profile
@@Jackson-ec9pytalking about similarities not status
MJ is good looking. Ant is not.
@@plumeria66 they still do look familiar.
I think Ant is more like D-Wade with some MJ resemblance in his game, specifically the mid range, tenacious defense, dunks, and footwork.
Kobe though was the most similar to Jordan by far, even down to their builds which is just crazy.
Ant: 6’4, 6’9 wingspan, vertical 41-43
D-Wade- 6’4, 6,10 wingspan vertical 36-38
MJ - 6’6, 6.11.5 wingspan, vertical 46-48
Kobe- 6’6, 6’11 wingspan vertical 40-42
MJ was just so fundamentally sound. Very precise, surgical, and efficient with his moves even in his earlier playing days. Very similar to Kobe. It was masterful but still had a blend of creativity. I see that prematurely with Ant but it’s a little more sporadic, more 3s, more dribbling. Still a fantastic player and to me the best SG in the NBA.
I think the exact same! You clearly watch the game and know it.
Completely agree
This makes sense. 👍
That was my thought as well.
Thank you. It clicked for me just a week ago. MJ is much more elegant and fluid in movement
Dwade is a bit more forceful like how Ant is now. Ant does have the capacity to improve and be more like Jordan with those mid range jumpers and fadeaways that I see many stars attempting and failing often
His shot release , spin moves while back to the rim..
Are definitely "Jordanesque"
Maybe a bad copy of him as esthetically
There will NEVER be someone better than Jordan or Gretzky. Two GOATS in their respective sports.
I wouldn't say never. I think there is always potential. But no one has come close to those two YET.
Kobe came close
@@patjenkins1308 True
Man, you really picked the right day to post this . . .
can we relax on comparing him to MJ let Anthony Edwards career happen he is his old individual person and he should be allowed to show his greatness on the court and we should be appreciative of it to show us as a player
What???
Dude it’s the NBA comparisons will always be a part of it lol
Relax its not that deep.
Awww ylu sad that LeBron is almost out. This happens to every young dude that has the it factor
If basketball is still being played 200 years from now there will still never be a player as good as Michael Jordan. I don't see how anybody could ever be that good again.
The most astounding thing about Ant is his defense. He's a legit 2 way player, just like Mike and Kobe.
Good point.🙂
Anthony Edwards has the potential if he keeps working hard
I 100% agree with everything you just said
I was out on "AntMan" when he didn't bring home gold for Team USA at the Basketball World Cup...😳
That’s why MJ is the goat they’re not calling Edwards the next lebron they’re calling him the next Micheal Jordan
Because he's don't play same way... But Zion was considered next LeBron...
@@Bigedub101 Nobody was saying it about Zion Williamson. Zion could have been a Charles Barkley. The only player that they said was like the next lebron james was ben simmons
Yes he is. And he is still so young and already so gifted, skilled, with great leadership.
Imagine Lebron fans realizing that Ant or whoever is the next face of the league is constantly in the GOAT talks in conparison to MJ, while Lebron isn't mentioned that often after he retires))
If Ant wins a few championships,MVPs, etc that’s it
You’re in an oldheads comment section. Lebron’s name will always be brought up. The reason why Kobe’s name was constantly brought up was because the media shaped the whole narrative and they are the ones who had control over everything basketball. With the internet and especially social media, the fans are the ones who make their own opinions based on more concrete stats and more film available to the public. The reason Kareem’s name isn’t brought up is because Lebron and Jordan are just very clearly better players both in their prime and especially Lebron with his longevity. Kareem isn’t as good as Prime Lebron or Prime Jordan, his resume isn’t as good as Jordan and his longevity, versatility and statistical dominance isn’t as good as Lebron’s. Lebron is easily the greatest all around player ever with the best longevity ever. MJ had the best prime in NBA history and easily has the most accolades in NBA history. Both of them also have a lot of narratives around their careers which gives them the aura and really interesting story.
Jordan was an incredible player who couldn’t get it done in the playoffs until he won his first ring. He 3-peated, retired, and 3 peated again.
Lebron had a similar case except he betrayed his hometown team and choked in the finals, until he got it done twice. Then he went back home and won the trophy in easily the craziest way anyone has ever won a ring.
Both of them easily have 2 of the 3 greatest seasons ever. (1988 Jordan, 2000 Shaq, 2013 Lebron).
@@d3va383The focus shifted to LeBron vs Jordan because, after Kobe retired, the league needed to keep the narrative going. As it creates interest both from LeBron fans as well as 'old heads' who watched Jordan. It's all about getting viewers.
And now, with LeBron in the twilight of his career, the narrative will shift to one of the new stars. In this case, Ant Man.
Back when Kobe played, there were a lot more people who said Kobe was the GOAT. That support has dropped off substantially. Time will tell if the same happens for LeBron. I think it will. LeBron just doesn't have the accolades that Jordan has and Jordan is, still, a global icon.
LeBron has the scoring record and the longevity. But so did Kareem before him. Very few people remain who consider Kareem the GOAT despite him dominating every Basketball league he ever played in.
@@Cain353 the difference between Kareem and Lebron is that Lebron is simply a much better player in his prime then Kareem was. The thing is Lebron in 2012 wasn’t getting GOAT comparisons cuz he never even won a ring. Since he came back from down 3-1 is when he started getting those comparisons, but that does coincide with Kobe’s retirement. It’s more of a circumstance thing. No one said Lebron was the GOAT in 2015 because he only had 2 rings.
@@d3va383You really don't know what Kareem was doing in his prime with the Bucks. So please stop.
Ant-man vs Jump-man
After seeing him drop a playoff-career high and franchise record of 43 at Denver, yes, we can confirm he is MJ’s son indeed.
Another great video 😁
This was an insightful discussion. ❤❤❤❤
flawless analysis
Great video, Jonny! I can't say yet whether he will be the "next MJ", but I can see the reasons for why some are calling him that. Good points about the media narrative too. If I remember correctly, there were also comparisons in the 90s b/w Jordan and Penny Hardaway (and Grant Hill). It seems endless.
Hope you have a nice week 😊
Oh yeah, you remember correctly. The media looooves a Jordan comparison. They did it with Harold Minor, Penny, Grant, Vince Carter and Kobe… this is just the next step
@@jonnyarnett So true. They sure do.
Do you know if they did similar comparisons with players in the 80s (i.e. comparing Kareem and Robert Parish to Wilt) or if this is something that started with MJ?
Anthony Edwards pretty much reminds me of a young MJ from the 80's.
The 80's MJ loves to dunk a lot and drive to the basket, just like Ant-Man. I do believe that as time passes and he grows older, he will be more disciplined and adopt a bit more fundamental moves, such as MJ's fadeaway or pull-up jumper from the late 90's. Not saying that he is going to be the next MJ, but he is going to be a much better player in the future.
I never got to see Jordan live. Only the highlights. If watching Jordan was like watching Ant in Game 1 against Denver. I totally get the hype. I was completely captivated by his game. He is incredible to watch play. His passion and willingness to play defense the way he does, his mindset and his leadership. He has the potential to be an all-time great.
Facts 🎉🎉🎉🎉🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
media already cashing out on LeBron....even perk has taken the gloves off
Kobe was the closest, but Ant is more athletic and has no one near a Shaq or Pau. God bless Ant for caring about his craft. I hope he has great handlers to help him deal with all the well deserved success and attention.
More athletic than Kobe? Huh?
Ant may jump higher but no way is he more athletic than Kobe...you must've only seen 24 Kobe...you probably never seen 8 Kobe..did you forget the behind the back 360 dunk over a defender??his signature baseline dunk??eastbay dunk winning him the dunk contest??Kobe is underrated when it comes to dunking...he doesnt have the highest verticle or the hangtime....but his finese was top 3
Pau is a player you can get again though. Not a rare case, can’t say the same for Shaq.
Ant man has Karl anthony Towns All star center and forward
@@dhan219 And DPOY in Gobert.
as always you demonstrate a solid concept of the media machine unlike a lot of other people. Ant-man definitely has everything to be a legit worldwide sensation if the play backs it up. He's mentally built for it it seems and the MJ comparisons in terms of play style are also incredibly valid. I think Ant has the best shot of anyone in my 30 year life time of being the next MJ. The success is just crazy to try and emulate and without it every comparison inevitably falls short. It requires the whole organization to be excellent for a long stretch that coincides perfectly with Ant's peak. Ultimately gonna take a lot of luck even if he does end up being as good as MJ on the court--which is also a LOT to ask.
30 years. So he'll be better than Kobe. Interesting. Wrong but interesting.
@@greggibson33 yeah Kobe wasn’t as charismatic which I think held back his star power a bit. Kobe was ok being the villain at times and wasn’t smiling a lot if at all- basically he let the mamba mentally leak off the court too much. It was awesome imo but it doesn’t hold the mass appeal that someone who’s charismatic off the court and a killer on the court does. Ant just makes it look more effortless whereas Kobe made a point of making sure you knew how hard he worked for it
Don't mean to brag Arnett my FRIEND... but I've been telling my athletes and colleagues here THE VERY SAME THING for the last two years... EXCEPTIONAL WORK AND 👏🏼 CONTENT AS USUAL! Your videos are an automatic LIKE 👍🏼!!!
I appreciate it man! and you deserve to brag a little bit after being ahead of the crowd on this one. lol
@@jonnyarnett thanks a lot!
He pays respect to the past and brings his teammates up too. He might not dominate the era like MJ but bringing even 1 title to the forever poverty Minnesota will make him an all time great. Also I never realized how the Bron vs MJ debate only started when Kobe retired in 2016 and bron won his 3rd chip
Who’s here after Ant dropped 40 and won game 1 over the nuggets😳
Actually reminds me of a young DWade with better 3 point shooting, there are videos of them mirroring each others highlights
Glad you mentioned the media machine. They don't necessarily care if you pick MJ or Lebron as long as you tune in. Once LBJ ages out, heh! The comparisons will turn to a trickle.
He reminds me of David Thompson both high flying guards at 6’4. Stats are very similar
"The next Jordan" doesn't mean much unless you have at least one threepeat under your belt.
'The next Jordan' means next by definition. Not now.
Bill Russell and George Mikan were the next MJ
@@greggibson33we’ve been calling people the next MJ since MJ got in the league
@@Buttington_Headerson Yep. Boring.
It's an individual thing. 3-peats are a team thing. Jordan Isn't Jordan because of 6 championships, He's Jordan because of his mentality, influence, etc. That led to 6 championships with his TEAM. What you're saying would mean Scottie Pippen is also the next Michael Jordan since he got two three peats with him, right?
I love this guy Ant Edwards, man. He'll absolutely be the crowned the "face" of the NBA by the media when LeBron is done ESPECIALLY if he wins the championship this year. What I love about him is he actually plays in games (played 79 of 82 games this year) just like MJ did in his career, and is a reliable two-way guard who makes great plays down the stretch in games. Plus, he also connects to the younger generation by being funny and serious when playing. I don't think he'll be as prolific of a scorer as MJ was because he doesn't have to carry as much weight on his team early on in his career as MJ had to when he arrived in Chicago. But hey, he has gotten better each season of his career thus far and don't expect that trend to end anytime soon.
I’m still waiting for “Baby Jordan” Harold Minor to blossom
I hate when people do this. He is not the next Jordan but he is the first Antony Edwards. Why do people always put crazy expectations on young athletes.
Because the media is about clicks. How aren't some of you not understanding that from the video. Do you think the people running the media really care?
Because its how humans think. Everything new we see instantly we compare it to things we know and understand. Its a great survival mechanism, but it results in every young player being the next so and so.
I honestly wish people would stop the "next Jordan" narrative. It's a momentum killer. Instead of Anthony Edwards being "the next Jordan" I would rather him just be Anthony Edwards.
You know mj the goat when everyone consistently comparing the best baller with mj
I don’t see it personally 🤷🏾♂️
Agreed. Just a topic for content.
I AGREE WITH BOTH OF YOU!!! EVERY DARK SKINNED PLAYER THAT CAN JUMP HIGH AND SHOOT!!!
@@dennismagee9555 😂
In order to be anything like Jordan, you have to posses the physical talent and athleticism, but you also have to have a competitive disorder and an unparalleled work ethic. Kobe had it and became great. I’m not sure that Ant is like that.
@@greggibson33 If they are younger than him they are all his sons too. They all look like him too
One major difference: Ant is funny. And he loosens everyone up. Teammates can be themselves in front of the media. He’s the same on camera as he is in the locker room. He can also act.
Love this kid’s game and I’m sure his father does too.
🏀
C300 Let's see what's going to happen these next few years.For anthony I think he's on his way
Anthony edwards is my favorite nba player
I want IGUODALA
I love how the meme will never die 😂
I don't see it yet, not even close😂😂😂Jordan at his age averaged 43,7 points in one series and not to mention that he was even in his rookie sesoni far more superior offensive player than Edwards ever was... He is far from Jordan and Kobe.
You win the prize as the first hater
@@user-hv2xt8xm2w And you win the prize as first ball washer.
@@user-hv2xt8xm2w lol, I never knew that I'm a hater if I say that someone isn't on MJ's level yet🤣. I'm saying this because I knew how great Jordan was and simply I don't see that level of greatness in Edwards. Jordan averaged above 28 points per game at that same age on over 50% from the field in much tougher era defensively. Edwards averaged 26 points per game on just under 46% from the field this season. Not to mentithat Jordan was also way better in steals, passing probably... Edwards is better 3 point shooter, but for Edwards to be compared with Jordan, he has to be the best player in the league which he isn't right now, there are few players that are better than him right now and they are Jokic of course, Luka and probably Shai. If he wins title this year, than he would has better season than all of them and than he can be compare with Jordan.
@@user-hv2xt8xm2whe ain't lying though
comparing historically great currently active players to retired legends is absolutely part of the mainstream media equation and intrigue, but I also think LeBron v MJ is so often debated because they really just are the two most individually dominant, accomplished and unprecedented athletes the game has ever seen, plain and simple. i mean you yourself got MJ 1 and Bron 2 on your list (as do I) and admitted Bron def has an argument for being #1 so i think thats also a big part of it
its real
MJ is my GOAT, Bron is my favorite player growing up...
Giannis, Luka, Jokic, Tatum came but Ant is different
He's elite on both ends
yes
Yea man… he’s special for sure. I’ve never been one who’s afraid to call it early. I don’t think he will be Mike but he may end up 3rd best SG all time ahead of D Wade if he can maximize his potential.
1 thousands yrs from now. Michael Jordan will be mythological like Hercules
Too early for comparisons but I ain't mad. At least Ant has some of that MJ/Kobe mentality. Can't say the same about his outlook on All Star Games, but I can let that slide a bit.
It's crazy though, MJ was so iconic that every player that emerges to be the face of the league gets compared to him. MJ truly is the GOAT.
One thing separating Edwards and Jordan--mitt size. And with all due respect to Edwards, that's something that's damn near impossible to compete with if you weren't blessed with them.
Without that, you're simply not gonna be able to manipulate the ball as easily as the MJs and Dr. J's of the world, but you can still do what you can.
The "next" MJ was a litany of no show names. Grant, Penny, et al., started out with a bang but ended with whimpers. never say "never," but I do understand when things are about 99.9999% improbable.
Don't think he can live up to the comparison. But he can come close.
🎉❤
It’s crazy that he only 6 ‘4 yeah dude has it all. I like his game and his killer instinct unlike Lebron. .. he would definitely be Jordan in this new era
The armband like MJ too he knows what he's doing
The guy who's going to be in the GOAT conversation soon is Jokic, Edwards will have to wait for his turn.
I don’t think so. Jokic is in his prime entering his 30s. It’s cool he has an MVP and FMVP under his belt. He’s at the top of the world rn. but it’s hard to follow that up with way more championships. Even ask Giannis considering he was in the same spot a few years ago when he won a ring. You must be a dynasty to be in the GOAT talks. Are the nuggets dynasty bound? I don’t think so
@@markibash2689 Jokic/Nuggets to Giannis/Bucks is a bogus comp. Jokic clearly better player and Nuggets better team, better coach, better front office. Bucks total meltdown by any metric.
@@greggibson33 you were saying? I’ll say this. It’s easy to make such bold remarks about something that’s already set in stone. Should’ve seen this coming. Giannis was literally that guy too. He had an MVP, finals MVP, and DPOY in those two seasons. It takes more to win multiple chips
Whether Edwards live up to the status of NBA immortals is something we have to wait and see. I'm anxious to find out because he has the intangibles to be great.
Players like lebron Jordan and Kobe will never be forget and will always be in talks as the goats
By there fans but not by the media anymore. Isn't that evident already with kobe?
@@MJIZZEL we live in the age of social media and those 3 have impacted the game was more den just basketball so they will never be forgotten especially by the media
nah they’ll be forgotten if not forgotten then overlooked just like how kareem and wilt have been forgotten and overlooked
@@Keith_EI doubt it, mj still get brought up after he retired. Lebron and Kobe are special players so I don’t think so
I’m so over people making comparisons! Let these people make their own mark in the sport!
He ain't MJ, but damnit he's good. Get a few more guys with that old school killer mindset in the league, and they might be able to pull it back in the right direction. I like Ant-Man's mentality. He said "there might be somone in the stands that spent their whole paycheck to come see me play. Im not sitting out cuz I'm tired. I'm playing every game!" Echoes Kobe and MJ. I love that shit. Confident and humble.
Believe that
i wish for Antman to have a long and succesfull career, so the GOAT status lands in good hands and not in LeBron's dirty mits
He has to win a title to become the face..Giannis and Jokic will be the faces once Bron leaves
Giannis will never win another chip. Book it. His window has closed.
@@greggibson33bro you're a hater😂. He had to go through by far the greatest scorer of this generation kd who was the best player in the world, heat, a hot hawks team, and the suns and beat all of them while averaging 35. He is still top 2 in scoring this year while being an all defensive player. Top 3 player right now
@@greggibson33he can’t even stay on the court anymore
The Timberwolves kinda remind me of the 2009-2010 Lakers. Antman and KAT are like Kobe and Pau.
Can't wait for the lebum fans to get a taste of their own medicine.
Jordan wore 23. 2+3=5 Ant's number 🤯
Also, MJ played 12 full seasons. In two of 15 seasons, he played 18 and 17 total games, respectively, in those seasons, and was finished in his last season from another injury. So he missed close to three seasons. Still, he won championships in half of his 12 FULL seasons, and he won more total awards than any other legend.
There will never be another jordan
Probably right, after LeBron retires the media will always debate who is the next to challenge LeBron for his all-time goat status
I'm just here to wish a happy 30th anniversary to the "next Michael Jordan" speculation.
If were saying ant could be the face of the leugue because of numbers and decent play off succes at a young age, what about luka? His resume is much more extensive and the only thing ant offers more is defence. Even then luka's offence is so historic it makes up that defencive gap. Personaly I think the Ant narative is a bit rushed and it completly ignores players like luka. I like ant game alot more but luka is just so much better. You can even argue luka playoffs runs are better, even this current one. Also shai exist too....Both shai and luka have a argument to be the face of the leugue. Love the vids man
Americans don’t want a foreigner being the face of
@yvans. Unfortunately I think you’re correct. Networks like ESPN seems to have a bias towards American born players.
*_"and is he the guy the MEDIA will embrace after Lebron retires?"_*
YES, they are already saying he's better than Jokic.
That’s absurd. Lol. The Jokic disrespect needs to stop.
They’re both great players of their era,Jordan was playing people that couldn’t dribble or defend the dribble so it was easy for MJ to be superior also the sport was way rougher than it is now. MJ was next level at his time and had more drive t
I think Ant is more like Dwyane Wade than M.J.
Yeah…people seem to have forgotten the MJ vs Kobe debates before it was LeBron’s turn. I guess Edwards is next. I thought it would have been Kawhi but he just couldn’t seem to stay on the court.
All I know is the league is licking their chops over this dude right now. The league has wanted so bad for another MJ. MJ transcended the game of basketball. MJ made this company an unfathomable amount of money, and the game grew exponentially because of him. I doubt anyone can have that type of impact again because of how big it is, but the right player can certainly draw in a lot more attention.
Ant-Man plays like Kobe & Jordan and jumps like Vince Carter
Jordan will be always the focal point of goat debate that’s why he’s the goat then
*_In many ways, Anthony Edwards is Michael Jordan and Allen Iverson rolled up into one._*
A young MJ is still more spectacular for me.. Antman sometimes shoot many threes.. while a young MJ really always drivng and made incredible shot ...😀
I think it's gonna be ANT vs JA. Adidas vs Nike. Clean shaven vs Tattooed
I used to follow the NBA religiously a while. Knew every starter on every team and many of the bench players. Probably not that that impressive but regardless.
Passed few years ive been absent but still pay attention to the activity of the scene.
Only very recently, im talking the last 2 months, all i have ever heard of anthony edwards is how he is the next MJ.
So this hypothesis sounds 1000% dead on. Lebron is exiting and they need a new narrative even the least interested passerby can have somewhat of an opinion on
damn am not the first viewer🥲😂
