    Episode 111: 7 & The Buffalo Bandits' Nick Weiss

    The Buffalo Bandits' Nick Weiss is one of the best all-around transition players in the National Lacrosse League today.

I spoke with the 3-time NLL champion and 6-time NLL Finals participant about the Bandits' run for a 4th consecutive championship, his little-talked-about rookie season with the Vancouver Stealth, and what we should expect for the Bandits' upcoming heavyweight matchup versus the Las Vegas Desert Dogs.

    Episode 110: 50 & The Las Vegas Desert Dogs Offensive Coach Brett Hickey

    Brett Hickey was one of the National Lacrosse League's most dominant goal scorers of the late 2010s. Especially during his time with the Toronto Rock, he was an offensive beast. Now he's in the next phase of his lacrosse life, as the offensive coordinator of the Las Vegas Desert Dogs. Hickey and the Desert Dogs earned their first win of the season in Week 4 NLL action. Hickey and I break down that contest, talk about his playing career, and revisit the 2015 season, which will always hold a special place in his heart.
