The SoBros Mailbag: 55th Edition – NFL Draft Plans and Underrated Southern Rappers

Share This Post

Let’s face it – every day we are routinely bombarded with questions. When you’re an emerging media company in Nashville, people just want to know what your opinions are on everything. It’s only natural. And, since our duty is to serve the people, well, we have no choice but to be present. That’s the SoBro Way. Also, aren’t mailbags just a barrel of laughs anyway? Welcome to the newest weekly recurring feature up in this bitch: The SoBros Mailbag. As always, use #SoBrosMailbag to hit us up on Twitter.

Question:

Answer:

That’s actually the FIRST thing you learn about SoBros Network. Just a bunch of kinky people who do nothing but have weird sex. We should start branding ourselves that way…. SoBros Network – Humor. Sports. Entertainment. Weird Sex. Yard Sales.

Anyway, I’m going to go with a good old fashioned John Stamos “have mercy.” Makes sense, right?

Question:

Answer:

I love the idea. I’m totally going to steal this and write it on our project board. We’re hoping to get to some more production stuff in May once the schedule slows down and there’s not a lot going on.

Question:

Answer:

I’m assuming you already have hotel accommodations booked, Ben, but if you don’t, I’d say get something as near the festivities as possible. It’s going to be an absolute nightmare getting in and out of downtown that weekend. In fact, they’re already starting to close some roads downtown to start building the stage.

The main stage is set up on 1st and Broadway, but all of the fan access stuff is out by Nissan Stadium across the river. To get there, you’ll have to walk. So item #1 on my check list would be comfortable shoes.

The festivities begin at Noon every day – I’d say go down and scope it out early if you want a good spot. It feels like there’s going to be a lot of ‘playing it by ear’ at this event.

Question:

Answer:

First of all, I am flattered that I get to be Joey Janela. Thank you for that. I’m narrowing this down to the SoBros who like wrestling, but I would slot ’em as so:

Brandon – Joey Ryan
Cadbury – PCO
Mose – Nick Gage
Poppa Bear – Mance Warner

Question:

Answer:

If we’re taking situational factors out of the equation, which I’m assuming we are (’cause a field goal in a tied game with three seconds on the clock is pretty damn exciting, but otherwise, field goals really aren’t), I’m going to go with the fake punt/field. A perfect example would be the touchdown pass that Kevin Byard threw to Dane Cruikshank last season. I live for the gadgetry. Inject it into my veins.

Question:

Answer:

The real answer, Josh, is that we’d all win.

But, I sense a little grizzled vet in Bromondo. Brent’s way more likely to have already had a Jello wrestling rap battle in his life, but I like Bromondo to rise to the occasion.

Question:

Answer:

It’s the damn Mobile Leprechaun. Easily. I write about it every year. I celebrate it every year. No shit – I put it on the annual SoBros vision board so I don’t forget about it even though it’s impossible for me to forget about it. Like it’s revenue goals, content milestones, and the fuckin’ Mobile Leprechaun. Priorities.

Question:

Answer:

See, Maura – here’s where I messed up. I sat down to start on it last week and I felt like I was just re-hashing stuff from the first article. I wanted to do something different, so I started taking some notes on how I could change it up and make something fresh. I started looking at everything and thought, “this is going to become a novella.” Now, the anticipation is building so much that I’m in an impossible situation. Also, who the fuck writes fictional fights between local news teams?

I didn’t mean to become Nashville’s version of George R.R. Martin, but here we are. I will have my people contact HBO about a series based on the Nashville Anchorman street fight articles.

Question:

Answer:

Welcome to the Thunderdome, Katie. We’re happy to have you on board. I exclusively watch WKRN now. Good Morning Nashville is electric, and that’s what led them to earning the 2018 ‘SoBro of the Year‘ honors.

Question:

Answer:

I want to say Young Buck so bad, but that’s just the homer in me. Honestly, the first name that came to mind was Juvenile…I know he’s not really underrated around here per se, but I don’t feel like he’s ever legitimately considered among the upper echelon of southern rappers. He’s vital to the game.

Question:

Answer:

Definitely St. Augustine, Florida, and Treasure Island down outside of St. Petersburg, Florida. It’s paradise down there – in my old age (32), I’ve grown to appreciate the spots in Florida that are calmer than Panama City Beach. I didn’t have to worry about watchin’ two drunk people fuckin’ on their hotel balcony while I was trying to enjoy my margaritas. I could walk peacefully barefoot along the beach without worrying about stepping in broken glass, needles, or semen.

I love #BromondosBigFriday – my question: what is the key ingredient to a successful Bromondo’s Big Friday?

Question:

Answer:

I can’t wait to see A.C. Mack and Fred Yehi – that whole Family Reunion show is going to be sick. Outside of that card, I’m stoked to see Nick Gage vs. Mance Warner. Who knows what else we’ll stumble into next week? I can’t believe it’s already here.

Keep the questions coming – catch y’all next week!
