Man jomburger uses every chance to remind everyone he saw potential in the warehouse when no one else did somebody give bro a pat on the back it seems that’s wat he’s waiting for
lest we forget: This all started with Jake and Jimmy playing blitzball in their alley next to a *dead rat*. Talk about the American dream. Super stoked for you guys!
It still baffles me that I remember watching the first episodes of Back Alley At Bats when they were uploaded on the JM channel. I still remember Zo and Jack's first appearance with the organization. To see it grow so big just fills me with joy.
@@squillz8310 I remember commenting on that first video they did with WGI and how much I enjoyed their chaotic sense of humor and that I wanted to see more of them. I’d like to think I’m directly responsible for their continued success lol
My 7 and 11 year old boys have been watching We got Ice like crazy lately and i really appreciate that they stay relatively clean with the language so i can feel fine about my youngest son watching. keep it up guys your stuff is great
I'm torn on this, but ultimately happy for any new successes and growth you and your team finds. Bally Sports has been a nightmare for a lot of MLB fans, myself included, making it impossible to watch our favorite teams. Definitely glad we'll still be able to watch on RU-vid!
It's wild to hear that you specifically made the production values such that those games could be shown on TV. I remember while I was watching it feeling like the production values had ramped up a bit with the intro/outtro music specifically. And also recently when I was watching Captain's League I noticed that those were gone and Captains League didn't have those touches. Loved having Rose do the Wearhouse Games and all the little TV touches you added.
They have talked about Captain's League being a cheaper/lower quality production just for budgeting purposes. I enjoy having the guys in the booth...but I'll always rather have Rosey up there throwing shade on everyone. It's a good balance tho.
The Bally deal is obviously great for Jomboy Media, but it's also great for Blitzball (the company). Were they involved in the conversations at all, or have you had any conversations/negotiations with them during the process?
I am glad that Warehouse is staying on RU-vid, otherwise, it will have disenfranchised the millions of cord cutters out there. I killed cable years ago because of the broadcast retrans fees and the RSN fees for local teams I don't follow (BAL & WAS). I subscribed to Willow for the T20 WC and plan to keep it at least for the upcoming MLC run. I am still wondering why in the last BIP series, we had the "wicket dance" only on the first match and then it went away. Did Mel not like it or something? I also saw the video on (I think) Cricket District where they were playing BIP using the plastic flat cricket bats. Any thoughts about incorporating those into BIP3 or a different series? I enjoyed the game play in that video. I would love to see more of this style.
I’m sitting at a restaurant and I look up and get to watch some blitzball! Already loving that warehouse games is getting national recognition and coverage! I’m curious about the in-game ads (shady rays, draft kings, etc.) and if they will continue to be a revenue source through the Bally broadcasts?
It's a good stepping stone, regardless of what happens to Bally. In the first 5 min of this video, he talks about another major network already asking about rights to the Warehouse. Any exposure is good exposure my dude.
Question Jimmy, will warehouse games still be unfiltered on RU-vid or are we cleaning up our act? For instance the Rourke F bombs when swinging and missing. Lol. Love everything yall do been here since yall was in the alley playing by a dead rat. Lol
Question: Regarding the mercy rule in blitzball scoring. Would you consider letting baserunners score above the 5 run cap? Example: 4 runs on the board, bases loaded grand slam nets you 8 max runs. It’s a bummer when those baserunners count for nothing, plus it could minimize ties/extra innings.
This is huge news! Congrats! With them moving to tv will anything change with the productions? Specifically the language used? I love Warehouse games but don’t let my kids watch due to the F bombs being dropped occasionally.
Would you guys ever consider 4-player teams for Blitzball Battles like you have been doing for Captain's League? Would be cool since BIP and Floorball both have 4 player teams as well and you could have 2 regulars per team for every tournament + 2 guests for each specific sport. Might be a little crowded in the field but I think 4-person batting orders and pitching rotations add a lot of realism and strategy too.
So stoked for you guys. My brother got me into Jomboy through the Warehouse Games. I hopped on before BB3 and could tell this had the potential to become big. Love the way you all have grown JM into what is. Much respect. We've started playing blitzball with some buddies and it's an absolute blast. Hope it blows up and leagues start popping up...we're doing our part to try 🤙
The only ones I can think of who did the crossover are Rhett and Link and a prior iteration of The Try Guys. I can't think of many others. You're up there Jomboy. Congrats!
From Michigan Bally's is almost impossible to get on anywhere in Michigan. In the U.P. you can't get it. And its super fun that MLB tv blocks out most of the games in the whole state!!!
Will Jack be doing a video at the end of Captains League Blitz ball where he goes over all the comments who won a shirt? Showing his favorite pitches, comments, etc...
Also was wondering now if Jimmy would like to weigh in on whether Cricket Players could have an easier transition to Baseball. Or Baseball players and easier transition to Cricket?
Congratulations on the deal. Now that you will have new viewers, have you thought about adding more well known events to accompany the series like a home run derby or a blitzball all star game?
Going to Bally does it mean you are going to stop swearing and have less personality? I’m sure Bally is going to have to edit Dan Rouke at the plate lmao 😂
man the big time! this is wild! got to go back and watch back alley at backs and the traveling games ya'll did picking up ice and others and rejoice in how far it's come!
Why choose discomfort? You can grow and succeed and be comfortable at the same time. If you dont like public speaking and are succeeding without that skill or requirement, why would you choose to expose yourself to something uncomfortable? You are making a choice to do something you don't want to do.
This is really cool, congrats! One question, how do plan to get around censors with how much Rose (and Dan rourke) curse? A sports broadcast with bleeps sounds pretty funny.
Jimmy - I have a deep dive for you to explore similar to how stealing is scored that affect catchers’ stats. On 6/26 Jackson Chourio had an inside the park home run and was scored that way even though the CF misplayed the ball terribly, it should have been a single. On 6/18 he also scored on his own hit, but it was ruled a double and an error on the RF. I can’t wrap my head around why they both weren’t ruled the same and it made me wonder how many doubles are on the books where it was actually and impressive piece of hustle and speed by the base runner to leg out for a run
Have you ever considered releasing The Morning Meeting live in the way that Baseball Today operates? Would love to see a live Q & A! And from a long time Warehouse Games viewer, and even longer Jomboy fan, congrats! So happy to see you guys getting the exposure you deserve
Question - do you think Americans could learn from cricket about how to catch a ball without a glove? I see a lot of guys (even good fielders like Luke and Dalton) using a sort of 'crocodile snatch' where the two hands come at the ball independently. In cricket, we were taught to cup the hands together and use them as a unit. The ball can enter either side of the hands (thumbs out for a low ball or pinkies out for a higher ball) depending on the trajectory/velocity etc. Baseballers take some great catches with a glove but cricketers take the best catches with their bare hands IMHO. I've never seen this discussed anywhere and think it would make a cool JM video. Sorry for the length. Keep up the great work.
This Bally's deal doesn't make any sense to me. They are a dying company. You have better reach on RU-vid than you ever will on US regional television (no Jimmy, not that many people watch tv anymore compared to the internet). You didn't even address the thing about people saying they're going out of business. You glossed over it. Glad you guys are getting some money but I think in the long run, this is most likely a bad deal.
Bally sucks really hard, but make that money guys. I’ll still only watch on RU-vid but I hope you get as much as you can before Bally falls apart completely.
I am a huge fan of barstool and have been since about 2012. I have recently been watching a ton of jomboy content specifically the warehouse games and guts. Love the content you guys put out and it reminds me of a bit of early barstool days. Underdog mentality. I know they tried the TV route a couple times and it didn’t go well. But I wish Jomboy nothing but success hope it works out! Keep killin it guys!
