    Big Ten Drops $1.37 BILLION | 80-Year-Old Eats First Wing | LIV Golf is COOKED

    The Orioles hit a grand slam and that’s all it took for Jim Palmer to eat his first chicken wing at 80 years old. Baseball is undefeated. The Cubs might have the worst “reward” in sports, making their player of the game take a shot of Malört like it’s some kind of celebration. Meanwhile, the SEC is rolling out robot umps, the Big Ten is casually handing out $1.37 BILLION, and college football is sprinting toward a full-blown super league whether anyone wants to admit it or not. We also get into one of the dumbest but most important debates ever: Does a straw have one hole or two? Plus: * Pickle debates spiral out of control * NHL beer gadgets go head-to-head (skate vs sabre vs tusk) * Boston blows it in brutal fashion * The NBA might already be decided * LIV Golf is officially dead And of course, beer recaps to close it out. 🍻 Grab a drink and hang with us. 👉 Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/jvY9dgX8Sf Jump to your favorite moment: 00:00:00 Introduction | How was your sports weekend? 00:05:54 What's in your mug? 00:11:49 Jim Palmer ate his first chicken wing at 80 years old because the Orioles hit a grand slam 00:15:21 Pickle side bar 00:20:54 The Cubs making their player of the game drink Malört is criminal 00:27:06 Pickle Haters Club 00:30:36 Mookie bails on the CBS golf outing team 00:34:50 The SEC is bringing ABS to their conference tournament this year 00:38:49 Israel and Palestinian representatives at a FIFA event made for uncomfortable viewing 00:40:08 Does a straw have 1 hole or 2? 00:47:48 Big Ten divides up $1.37 billion across its members for the 2024-2025 fiscal year 00:54:08 Building a Pinewood Derby car isn't as easy as you'd think 00:59:41 College football coaches vote to recommend expanding the playoffs, doing away with conference championships, and ending the playoffs by mid-January 01:05:05 Eventually, these conferences are going to form a super league 01:09:19 Does the Big 10 Commissioner even know all the teams in the Big 10? 01:11:50 Mookie's prom group date 01:15:09 Sip, Chug, Drainpour: Carolina's Beer Skate, Buffalo's Beer Sabre, Utah's Tusk Mug 01:22:07 We need cartoon Skeletor in the He-Man movie 01:25:42 Worst things to yell out after doing the deed 01:28:51 Boston choking away a 3-1 lead was wild 01:31:15 The NBA Champ is coming out the west, right? 01:36:49 LIV Golf is dead 01:42:49 Beer recaps 01:43:48 This was a show 01:44:35 Outro #MLB #Orioles #Cubs #CollegeFootball #BigTen #LIVGolf #NBAPlayoffs #SportsPodcast #FunnySports #CraftBrewedSports #RobotUmps #SEC #BaseballTalk #SportsDebate #CincoDeMayo

    A missed field goal saved a man’s life?! We break down the unbelievable story involving Younghoe Koo and how one of the worst kicks you’ll ever see turned into something way bigger than football.

    Ichiro Statue Fail | NBA's 65 Game Rule Screws Luka | FIFA Hates Fans

    Back in the Speakeasy and this one goes completely off the rails in the best way possible. The Seattle Mariners tried to honor Ichiro Suzuki, and the statue immediately had a broken bat situation. You had one job. Then MLB somehow outdid itself with replay chaos: challenge an overturned call, just to end up with the original call anyway. John Smoltz went full OWG about ABS, and now umpires are even starting to chirp back. We also dive into: • A full-blown Cincinnati Reds bobblehead conspiracy • Why the NBA playoffs feel like they last 6 months • The 65-game rule screwing over Luka Dončić and a bunch of other guys • The greatest anti-tanking idea ever: beer prices tied to wins and losses • A Charlotte restaurant taking shots at Michael Jordan • The internet losing its mind over Dianna Russini and Mike Vrabel in a hot tub • Rory McIlroy going back-to-back at The Masters • MFer of the Week: FIFA banning tailgates vs Ohio trying to gut sports gambling Plus beer recaps, random yard work talk, and whatever else spiraled out of control. 👉 Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/jvY9dgX8Sf Jump to your favorite moment: 00:00:00 Introduction | How was your sports weekend? 00:06:19 Sucked right back into yard work talk 00:14:57 What's in your mug? 00:22:04 The Ichiro statue was perfect, except for that whole broken bat thing 00:34:30 Mookie's Cincinnati Reds Bobblehead Conspiracy Theory 00:40:43 The Greg Bobblehead is something that we need badly 00:42:12 The most baseball thing there is: Challenging an overturned challenge ended up with the initial result happening 00:44:57 John Smoltz goes OWG on the ABS 00:46:36 Third straight week of ABS talk.

    Robot Umps Are Already Causing Chaos | UConn Is the New Duke | NFL Flag League Is Real

    Robot umps are already causing chaos in baseball, and we might’ve just seen the moment everything changes. We break down the insane sequence where Eugenio Suárez challenged back-to-back strike calls from CB Bucknor and won BOTH, why older umpires are getting exposed at a ridiculous rate, and how this system could literally turn a walk into a strike 'em out/throw ‘em out double play. But that’s just the start. We also get into: • The NFL launching a flag football league backed by Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and more • Why UConn has officially entered Duke-level villain territory • Whether fans should actually root for conference rivals • Anthony Edwards missing a start for the most honest reason you’ll ever hear • The dumbest stadium food challenges and candy debates you didn’t ask for • Mookie trying to bet on bad spring football like a true degenerate • Tiger Woods’ latest situation and why it doesn’t quite add up There’s also jelly bean debates, beer reviews, and complete nonsense throughout. So yeah, this one goes everywhere. 👉 Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/jvY9dgX8Sf Jump to your favorite topic: 00:00:00 Introduction | Sure, let's go deep into jelly bean talk 00:09:09 What's in your mug, tonight? 00:13:17 NFL is launching a professional flag football league 00:18:09 Flag football brings out some really personal stories 00:22:58 Did you know federal grant money was paying for intramural referees back in the day? 00:26:37 Which station picks up the NFL Flag Football leagues? 00:29:38 USFL is just bad football, but that won't stop Mookie from trying to bet on it 00:31:27 UConn is the new Duke 00:35:27 Quick!
