Nattering With E Drop 5, now on the Visionaries Global Media and Nattering With E Networks. Catch us weekly as we discuss five of the coolest things out there on the Internet.

What's happening, everyone? It's your main man, Easy E, aka E from Nattering With E, here with another awesome episode of the Nattering With E Podcast. I just got back from my vacation a couple days ago, and the first thing I wanted to do once I was settled was create another top 5 for the Chit Chatters, the Natterers, the fans of the podcast. But before we get there, we've got some house cleaning to take care of regarding the MLB and my favorite sports teams. Firstly, a big shout out to the number one fan of the podcast, Mr. Hi5Tom, as he and the Visionaries Global Media co-owner, Diesel, are huge Milwaukee Brewers fans.

The Milwaukee Brewers captured their first ever World Series. They beat the Tampa Bay Rays in five games last week, around Wednesday last week.

The Brewers hadn't been to the finals in over 40 years before finally getting to the promised land.

This was Tampa's third time going to the World Series, and sadly for them, their third time not winning the big one. With the strike impending though, these are actually two teams I figure should come out okay as most of their lineups are signed for the next five years. The thing too is that someone made a shadow to Ban From Ringside radio. I don't know if they ever listen to our pod, but we appreciate you guys anyways. But one of the hosts said that this was basically two American League teams facing off against each other in the World Series. And I mean, you can't argue with that. Yes, it's been about 10 or 15 years that the Brewers have been in the NL, but let's face it, if you're a diehard baseball fan, you know that the Brewers were an American League team. Also, having Christian Jelic as your GH, talk about a benefit there. It's such an American League model of how they style their team. They were able to upset the LA Dodgers and basically run the season. They had an amazing season, 104 wins. They played small ball. They were basically the Rays, but just slightly better. This was a really fun series. Because it took them 40 years between World Series appearances as a Leaf fan, as you know, on the Nattering Ian Chalpod, I'm holding out hope, praying, pleading that the Leafs eventually get their act together and can make it back to a final. Even if they end up like Tampa and only other runners up, getting there is half the battle, and I know as someone who stresses about his favorite sports teams, if we can't even get there, although I don't know. Let's be honest, if the Leafs got to the Stanley Cup final the same way Tampa has for the World Series, I'd lose my mind if they lost. I'd be so heartbroken. So I don't know. But as much as we want to see our teams progress, we also don't want to see them be bad either, right? Or rather, we don't want to see them go to the finals, but then not win. Like at that point, you got to win basically. With the Brewers, I mean, they finally got over the hump of defeating the Dodgers who, don't get me wrong, the Dodgers, good team, but they also have a payroll 200 million more than the Brewers. If the Brewers could beat them, very impressive. But this isn't about the Brewers. This isn't a Brewers podcast. This is Nattering With E. And so another team that I want to talk about is actually the Mighty Mighty West Ham. I still can get doing a podcast called The Mighty Yams, talking about West Ham, but I don't want to get beat up or anything like that. Anyways, the reason I bring up West Ham is because West Ham, as of this recording, we're recording on Tuesday, November the 3rd, but this will go up Wednesday, November the 4th. So as of this recording, when you listen to it, West Ham will have a new manager. Again, fourth new manager since David Boyes left 24 months ago. Yeah, two years ago, we had David Boyes. Since then, we've gone through four managers. We've been relegated and actually the guy that we just fired, Nuno Espirito Sento, is the guy who stayed the longest.

Lappategghi got eight months. Gran Potter got 10 months. And Nuno just finished up 14 months as the West Ham manager. Now, initial reaction is the guy who only lost two games. How can you fire him? But he's also the manager who was with us for the majority of last season, which got us relegated from the Premier League and got us in this mess of being in eighth place in the English Championship, which is the second tier. So they got rid of him and they brought in former West Ham captain and a famous person on one of James Corden's old shows where James Corden said that this man was dead to him. F you Parker, F you.
