    Episode 241: "Congrats Dre!"

    We kick things off with intros and a recap of Dre's wedding before jumping straight into Quick Hits. Team USA wins gold in hockey behind Jack Hughes. The women's hockey team declines a White House invite — we discuss. KD says he wants another Olympic run — should he do it? Fernando Mendoza skips throwing at the Combine — big deal or overblown? Lakers fall to Peyton Pritchard (and maybe Caitlin Clark comps aren't so crazy). Pat Riley statue talk. Claressa Shields wins by unanimous decision. Then it's time for Rule Breakers: Kansas State fires Jerome Tang after his rant, Mick Cronin throws out his own player at UCLA, and USC WR Ja'kobi Lane accuses a recruit of stealing. We also send love with a RIP to Jesse Jackson. Tap in — we don't make the rules, we just talk about 'em.

    Episode 237: Playoff Blues!"

    We recap a weather-soaked NFL weekend as the Patriots take down the Broncos in a game full of missed chances, questionable decisions, and continued struggles from Drake Maye. The hate watch delivers, Jarrett Stidham's turnovers loom large, and a blown fourth-down opportunity shifts the game early. Out west, the Seahawks hold off the Rams behind a big performance from Sam Darnold. We break down the Rams' shaky secondary, special teams issues, and why no weather machine was needed this time. We preview a Patriots vs Seahawks Super Bowl rematch, revisiting the infamous 2014 goal-line interception. Seattle opens as a 4.5-point favorite as two defensive head coaches square off. Quick Hits include Mike McCarthy landing in Pittsburgh, questions around the Eagles OC job, Mike McDaniel named Chargers OC, Shedeur Sanders making the Pro Bowl, and thoughts on the Lakers, LeBron, and Jeanie Buss article. Rule Breakers wraps with Deion Sanders, the Bills owner vs Keon Coleman, Anthony Edwards thoughts on the recent events in Minnesota, LeBron's MLK "homage", Inside the NBA, Kanye West, and prayers for the East Coast.
