    Big Shot Bob - Shoot Around Ep 64 - Matching Onesies for Christmas

    Rob opens the show with a Happy Birthday to his wife Candace, even though they didn't go dancing this year, which was an annual birthday tradition. And we dive right into listener questions about Rudy Gobert training with MMA fighters, and the wild idea that he continues to get Defensive Player of the Year Awards even though he's a defensive liability when it matters most. We also ask Rob if the Bulls and Zach LeVine can repair their relationship after the active work the team did to trade him. Plus, after Steve Mariucci showed up on NFL Network with a cast he had from when he was four years old (he's 64 now) we all offer up the strangest things we have from our childhoods... and Rob's is a classic! Rob also thinks that Deion Sanders will last three or four more seasons at Colorado despite all the drama surrounding him and the program at the start of the season. Finally with the release of the Thomas Froot Loop Bagels, we talk about some of the nastiest food we would eat as kids including ketchup on eggs, salted watermelon, peanuts in Coke, and for some reason Rob stuffing peppermints into squished up oranges.   Thanks to DRAFT KINGS for sponsoring this episode of Big Shot Bob!

    Big Shot Bob – Ep 180 – Says The Man on an NBA Podcast

    Rob had a rough experience at a rental place with some dated furniture and no A/C, which got us all thinking about the things that remind us of our childhoods… everything from cars with no seatbelts to plastic on the furniture! And we immediately dive into one of the biggest stories of the week after Tyreek Hill got detained before the Dolphins game, including the crazy audio from the police body cam. Rob feels like both sides were at fault and how he advises his family to always comply with the police in the moment and deal with the fallout later, because you never know when an angry cop can make a situation a lot worse. And on the heels of the Tyreek incident we make our picks for this week’s Draft Kings Pick Six on the Dolphins-Bills game. We also touch on this ridiculous storyline from Windhorst about whether or not JJ Redick “believes” in Austin Reaves – and Rob says he believes in him coming off the bench and doing the job he was paid for, and how this is a typical BS offseason storyline. Plus there’s some audio of the big fella out there this week, as Shaq appeared on the Pat McAfee Show and said he doesn’t view Wemby as a “dominant” player. Rob agrees on the terms that you define dominance as guys who play with physical force, and it’s unfair to compare a guy like Wemby to Shaq. And some crazy audio from Angel Reese as she comes out on her show and talks about some of the wild hate that she’s received. There’s a lot to talk about from this wild NFL opening weekend, including Giants fans burning Daniel Jones jerseys after one week, the huge Raiders-Chargers fights, and everyone’s take on the announcement of Kendrick Lamar as the Super Bowl Halftime performer. And of course some of the college football fallout from Notre Dame to Michigan, and the Governor of New Hampshire gets the Big Shot of the Week for a wild reason! And we close it out with another classic match-up of Rapid Fire.   Thanks to DRAFT KINGS for sponsoring this episode of Big Shot Bob!

    Big Shot Bob – Ep 179 – You Go Where He Goes

    It’s a weird start to the show this week as everyone seems to be having some sort of insurance issue – which goes to prove that anyone from radio guys to former NBA stars, all have to deal with the same tiny issues in life. Of course we need to know if Rob thinks the Clippers stabbed Paul George in the back, as his father claimed this week… and Rob says NO it’s always just business, but the Clippers definitely screwed up this situation! And with our friends from Draft Kings coming back to the show this week, Rob gets in deep with his fantasy football competition this year and how he’s approaching it. Plus the news about the Philadelphia 76ers saying they are “seriously considering” moving to New Jersey is just a negotiation ploy to put some pressure on the city of Philadelphia to get a new stadium deal done. And with Steph signing his monster one-year extension, Rob says it sets him up for the end of his career in Golden State. Speaking of big paychecks, Shaq thinks the WNBA women should be paid what the men are getting – and while we love Shaq, and agree with that sentiment, he of all people knows that the WNBA isn’t there financially yet. And props to Angel Reese for breaking the WNBA single season rebound record. Plus some great college football audio from Brian Kelly, a random rant from Mike Gundy, and Rob’s good friend Dabo Swinney checked in with him after that tough loss to Georgia to say they are going to right the ship. There’s also an inspiring Big Shot of the Week to a brother who came through for his sister on a DIY – something Rob refuses to do anymore because he has money – and another hilarious installation of “Walmart or Waffle House”!   Thanks to DRAFT KINGS for sponsoring this episode of Big Shot Bob!

    Big Shot Bob – Shoot Around Ep 62 – Amazon Sent Me G-League Games

    We open the bonus show by gauging Rob’s excitement and trepidation as the Crimson Tide kick off their first college football season without Nick Saban in a long time, and Rob is remaining optimistic about their playoff chances. And as the NBA asks to have the Warner Brothers Discovery lawsuit to be thrown out, B-Dog feels like this is a long play for younger viewers because so few people have traditional cable packages anymore. We also get Chet Holmgren’s “welcome to the NBA moment” and Rob reveals that his was not getting a call after getting a hard foul, and the ref looking at him like a little kid for even looking for the foul. He also shares an AMAZING story about sharing the court with Michael Jordan and how he was well aware that he was getting calls that others weren’t. Plus after Adam Sandler was seen hooping in a local NYC neighborhood, we ask Rob about his favorite celebrities to hoop with. And did you see the Six Flags Mexico ride that got stuck 250 feet in the air in the middle of a nasty storm?? It gets us into the conversation about Robert Horry and roller coasters. Plus we put the guys to the test and see if they can dial up the Top 20 rated players in the new NBA 2K25.   Special thanks to FACTOR MEALS for sponsoring this week’s show!!

    Big Shot Bob – Ep 178 – See Ya At The Car

    We are BACK from our break – after taking a week off for Rob’s 54th birthday (where he restaurant hopped and drank too much), and Rob’s NBA trip to China for youth basketball camps. We get all the recaps of Rob’s escapades, before we dive into the insane rumor of the week, that the Lakers are already angling for a way to get Luka Doncic after LeBron hangs it up. And Rob and B-Dog both agree that this will never happen. Plus we get into the drama surrounding Anthony Edwards after he said Jordan was the only guy “back in the day” who had any skill, as Magic Johnson responded live on stage, and Rob says it’s the ignorance of youth who never got to see those guys play. Kevin Garnett also rocked the NBA boat this week by saying Giannis was the 4th best player in the East – even though he could only come up with two guys who are better – and Rob asks who we would roll with when fully healthy. Angel Reese just scored herself a new podcast and a partnership with Reese’s, which continues to showcase the main stream rise of the WNBA! And Sheryl Swoops got into it with Stephen A Smith over the women’s league this week, which continues to show how relevant the WNBA conversation is in sports today. College Football season is also back, and we couldn’t help but dive into the Deion Sanders story, as he had a reporter banned from asking questions, and Harper feels like Deion needs to leave Colorado to redeem a bigger program to get his clout back. Plus an inspiring Big Shot of the Week to a Kentucky teacher with a huge heart, and a fun round “That’s Some BS”, College Football edition!   Special thanks to FACTOR MEALS for sponsoring this week’s show!!

    Big Shot Bob – Ep 177 – Let Me Get One Spaghetto

    We open a huge show this week with Rob having missed all the closing ceremonies, the idea of renting his house out for the Olympics in LA, and how he was taunting us from the front row of a Dodgers game last week. And of course we get into a huge breakdown of Team uSA, who won the gold but not without a lot of drama. Rob sounds off on the leaded audio of LeBron calling out Steve Kerr in the locker room, and agrees that on both the men’s team and women’s team there was a lot of bias from coaches who were playing the players they know. And Rob challenges the idea that only NBA coaches should be coaching Team USA, but if it has to be an NBA coach then it should be someone who doesn’t have any of their own players on the team. Recapping the gold medal game was easy, as we just relive Steph’s amazing daggers against France to bring it home. And amongst all that drama, B-Dog feels like LeBron is still the leader of that team… but Rob says it isn’t enough to be a leader on the floor, it has to count in the locker room too. But it didn’t mean much to Steve Kerr, who was anxious to throw flowers at the GOAT’s feet, even though LeBron was undermining him to the entire team. And we put the wraps on the Olympics by debating who the next group of guys are to pick up the mantle of Team USA. In NBA news, the Christmas Day games were announced – some great, some just okay – and how the NFL is coming for the NBA’s Christmas Day tradition. Giannis feels some sort of way about the Christmas schedule, as the Bucks weren’t included, and Rob is really in “show me” mode with that team now because they are always hurt. Plus Noah Lyles had a week, after he won the gold, then got Covid, then went clubbing, and finally having an article drop about how disrespected he felt to be invited to Anthony Edwards Adidas event. That even spurred the Cheetah, Tyreek Hill, who went from wanting to support him, to wanting to race him and beat him. Preseason football brings us the new kickoff rule, and with the Carolina Panthers plane sliding off the runway, Rob recounts a college plane flight where they all thought they were going to die. Finally the Big Shot of the Week to Magic guard Cole Anthony for giving back to his community, and very funny and odd round of a new game called Bet On Yourself.
