New grandson arrives after a whirlwind night—and the Atlanta Hawks deliver one of the most embarrassing playoff exits in recent memory. On this Friday Happy Hour edition of The Morning Rant, Dave Garner and Big John Davis celebrate family joy, hype the upcoming Bradley’s Bar & Grill live broadcast, announce the new Jasper Coca-Cola text line, and break down the Hawks’ 60-point collapse. John also drops a fiery bold take on SEC bias and conference strength. Plus, Braves talk, Kentucky Derby chatter, charity raffle details, and plenty of unfiltered sports banter.
