The NFL Combine has come to an end, and we're all left wondering did it all really matter? We break down the top prospects and talk about what impressed us. We're exactly one month away form the start of the NHL Playoffs, and we couldn't be more excited.

There is a new proposal to shorten the preseason to three game

  The last few weeks in the sports world have been a rollercoaster ride. We've had the highest of highs with the Super Bowl to one of the lowest points with the passing of Kobe, Gigi, and seven others just two weeks ago.   The episode starts with us reflecting on the Kobe Bryant news. We talk about the impact Kobe had on the game, what we'll miss about Mamba, and how the NBA should honor him.   Kansas City, you're Chiefs are Super Bowl Champs! After 50 years of losing, the Chiefs finally have a second Lombardi Trophy. What did we think of the game overall? Did Pat Mahomes deserve to be Super Bowl MVP?   What does 2020 have up its sleeve? We're already looking forward to the 2020 NFL season. Who do we see as the favorite? Do we see any darkhorse teams rising from the ashes?   Now that football is done, we really start to shift our focus to hockey. The trade deadline is just around the corner, and the NHL deadline has always proven to be exciting. The Penguins are going to be extremely active. We discuss some o

After a brief holiday hiatus, your bi-weekly dose of all the sports opinions you never wanted is back on track. It's been a wild few weeks, and we pack it all into this episode. Let's talk about baseball and more specifically the Astros. This cheating scandal is the worst we've seen in sports. We've already seen four firings, and more punishment could be on its way. What do we think about how the MLB handled this? Skip about 10 minutes ahead if you don't want to hear Andy gloat about winning ANOTHER League of Record title. Following Andy's victory laps, we give our early reactions to the top 10 finishers at the running back and wide receiver positions. Where do we see these top players being drafted next year?

Are you ready for the Super Bowl? We sure are! Super Bowl 54 between the Chiefs and Niners is shaping up to be

  Playoffs, hot stoves, and regrets.   The MLB hot stove is "heating up" with a host of big early signings. How do we think this could impact the season and the rest of the offseason going forward?   The College Football Playoff is set! We give our predictions for the first round of games, and we don't necessarily agree.   Our college football talk roles on with a look at the premier bowl games and some other ones we think could be very interesting during the bowl season.   The NFL is just a few weeks away from postseason play. While a lot of teams look to be in the playoffs, the seedings still need to be determined. We break down the playoff picture in both the AFC and NFC.   While the fantasy playoffs rage on, we take a look back at our regrets through the season. Who do we regret drafting? Who should have we picked up or dropped? Did we make a bad trade?   The show wraps with our one awesome thing in sports. Jimi "pulls and Andy" with two stories, while Andy picks the best tweet from the weekend from a hal

In honor of Thanksgiving, we start out show by comparing NFL teams to Thanksgiving Day side dishes. Who is the stuffing? What team takes home the honor of being the cranberry sauce? The fifth week of the College Football Playoff rankings is out and there's a change at the top. We pick apart the committee's choices, talk about the most likely top-four scenarios, and give our concerns about each team in the top 10. Penn State suffered a big loss over the weekend, and it wasn't on the football field. Arizona State handed the PSU wrestling team their first dual-meet loss in five years. How does Andy see this impacting the rest of PSU's season? We only have six weeks left in the NFL season. Some teams are jostling for playoff position, while others are just fighting to stay alive. What teams do we buy or sell in the current playoff picture? There's only one week left in the fantasy football season. We know, we're sad too. One week means there's still hope to break into the playoffs and get that title. Who

Before we get into football, we start with a wild story in baseball. Have you heard about the Astros sign-stealing scandal? The second edition of the College Football Playoff rankings are out, and we have some thoughts. Does Bama deserve its number 5 ranking? How do we see the rest of this season playing out? Don't look now, but the NFL playoffs aren't too far off. A few teams have pulled away from the pack, but there's a hot race for the wild card in each conference. Which four teams from the NFC and AFC do we see claiming those final spots? Place your bets! Jimi has two three-team parlays he likes in college and the NFL he really likes this week. Listen to him, and maybe you'll win some money this weekend. We're back with the good, bad, and ugly in fantasy football. Which players can you trust for the rest of the season? Our "bad" players both focus on high-profile players that you cannot trust down the stretch. Our show closes out in typical fashion with our one awesome thing in sports. Jimi tal

We're back after a short hiatus! Did you miss us? With baseball done and the Nationals crowned as World Series champs, we're deep in football mode. Teams in the NFL are starting to show their true colors. Some teams are trending up and looking to make a splash, while others see the bottom falling out fast. College football's first playoff rankings come out Nov. 5. We take a look back and forward at the games that have and will shape this season's top four. Listen to our top four teams and in the country and see where we differ. We're more than halfway through the fantasy football season so it's time to start thinking trades. Who are you trading for? Who do you want to trade away? Andy made a HUGE trade right before the episode started to make his team better, but compromised on depth. Finally, we close with our one awesome thing in sports. Jimi has a personal experience that meant a lot to him, while Andy picks a significant story that has everyone in the sports world buzzing.

  A busy week in the NFL, college football in full swing, and the MLB Postseason right around the corner makes for one fun episode.   With all the NFL news swirling, we couldn't start anywhere else. Drew Brees is out for 6 weeks. Eli Manning gets benched. Not to mention Big Ben is out for the season. We break it all down from fantasy to real-life implications.   What have the first two weeks in the NFL taught us? Who deserves the hype? Who is our too early MVP?   College Football is about to hit conference play, so it's time to sort out the contenders and pretenders. This week gives us a fun and important slate of games that can go a long way in determining that. How do we see the top teams faring this week and beyond?   The MLB postseason is coming into clear view. With the exception of one division race, the only thing left to sort out is the Wild Cards in each league.

We wrap the show with our One Awesome Thing In Sports. Andy talks about something that hasn't happened in a while, and Jimi finds a cool Stanley Cup story.

We would say we're sorry for another all football episode, but that would be a lie. Our episode kicks off with our final look at college football. We cover the Big 12, PAC 12, and Big 10 in addition to an early look at Penn State's season. We also go through the recently released AP Top 25 poll. There are just a couple of games left in the preseason, and we have the AFC North is the last division on our preview list. With recent player additions and developments, the AFC North is one of the most interesting in football. We discuss the Ravens, Browns, Bengals, and give our season preview on the Steelers.

It's a division full of teams with not just playoff hopes, but potential Super Bowl hopes. It's college football time! We're breaking down the ACC and the SEC.

You might think it's a little early to start mock drafting, but this is the perfect time to get prepped for your actual draft. August is less than a week away and the season gets going in just over a month. Let us know who think drafted the best team!

Bring on the madness of free agency! NHL and NBA free agency is open, and it's been a wild start. We've had multiple start players changing teams in both leagues along with a few big trades as well. Phil Kessel is gone, and we have some thoughts. Plus, find out where we think Kawhi Leonard ends up signing this offseason. Green grass. White kits. Wimbledon is here. One of the best sporting events of the year is taking place in London, and it's anybody's tournament to take. We've already seen a few major upsets and there are sure to be more to come.

The show starts off with our appreciation for the St. Louis Blues taking down the Boston Bruins in the Stanley Cup Finals. We discuss how the Blue got to this point, and how they were finally able to take home Lord Stanley. We quickly shift our focus to the NBA Finals. It's been a dramatic championship series, but not always for the best reasons. From injuries to unruly fans, the series hasn't always been about the play on the court. Do we think that the Raptors can grab the final win? The World Cup is here! The U.S. Women's National Team are the favorites to win it all again, and they started off hot. Some people had a problem with their rout of Thailand. Find out if we feel the same way. Plus, Andy has the perfect site to keep up with every team in the World Cup. We continue our NFL divisional breakdowns series with a look at the AFC and NFC East. That Patriots are still the tops, but we think there are a few teams in this division who could make some noise. It's a two team race in the NFC East, and

  With two major sports in their championship series, another tennis major championship, and football less than 100 days away, we have a lot to talk about.   Boston and St. Louis are currently tied at one game apiece. It's been a drag 'em out series that could have either team looking at a 2-0 lead. Do the Blues have what it takes to raise the cup? What do they have to keep doing to get there?   The NBA Finals have shown the inevitable. We all knew that Golden State would be the Western Conference representative and they look like the presumptive favorite to take home the Larry O'Brien Trophy. We give our take on the series and how we could possibly see a Toronto upset.   Allez! The best players in tennis took to the clay courts of Roland Garros last week, and so far the field has come up chalk. Jimi breaks down his favorites (it shouldn't be a surprise) but gives a darkhorse to watch as well.   We're breaking it down. Starting with this episode, we'll break down at least one NFL division per episode to get y

Conference finals in two sports, the Preakness Stakes, and a whole heap of fantasy football opinions are all on deck. The NBA playoffs have been ... okay. We have had some decent moments like the Kawhi shot in game 7, Damian Lillard's insane game-winner, and Steph going crazy against the Rockets, but they haven't been consistent. Now, we're down to the final four teams and we discuss who we see getting to the NBA Finals. Woe is us. The Bruins made quick work of the Hurricanes and it looks like they will be either playing a battled-scarred Sharks or Blues team. We have differing opinions on who comes out of the Western Conference. Maximum Security wins the Kentucky Derby! Wait, he didn't. We witnessed one of the craziest finishes in horse racing (maybe sports history), and Jimi has some insight on how this all went down and why. Plus, make sure you get our take on the Preakness before you place your bets. Fantasy Football rankings are out! We play "Buy or Sell" based off of ESPN's way too early rankin

Andy thinks he has a surefire pick and Jimi goes a bit chalk with his pick. The draft is over and a whole new crop of NFL players are ready to make their mark. We discuss some of the biggest surprises and how we see these new players fitting into their roles. With the draft comes a whole new slew of fantasy implications. Listen to see who our winners and losers with regards to fantasy following the draft.

All four major sports wrapped up in one episode. The NHL Playoffs move on, and this time without the Penguins advancing beyond the first round. We give our thoughts on the disappointing Pens series loss and what we think went wrong. Who are our favorites now that the Penguins are out? The young MLB season is already exciting. We've seen surprising teams emerge and favorites falter. Listen to hear our initial (too early) MLB impressions. Also, Andy has a small Pirates rant and those are always fun, right? We're just getting started in the NBA Playoffs and although it's still early, we are already getting some exciting games. The 76ers are playing tough, OKC is on the ropes, and Golden State has a scare. It's almost time to draft! We're very excited about the upcoming NFL Draft and it shows. The Steelers have 10 picks in this year's draft and we have some thoughts on how they can use those.
