Here to close out another week, with lots to uncover, as the sports world does not let up with all that’s going on as the latest podcast is here. On deck:

(6:36) Championship Sunday is on the horizon in the NFL. I’ll preview both games, how I see it unfold and predict who’ll meet in Super Bowl LX. Also, is there dysfunction in Buffalo? The Bills fire Sean McDermott, leaving the owner and GM with lots to say in the aftermath of jettisoning their former head coach. Plus, the latest coaching hires in the sport.

(38:21) The Indiana Hoosiers punctuate their miraculous season with a National Championship on Monday night. Are they one of the best college football teams of all time?

(47:03) The Yankees finally get their man, resigning Cody Bellinger to a five year deal, but it’s the Mets who make waves by trading for a CF and frontline starter that has their fan base amped up. I’ll also share my thoughts on who made it into the Hall of Fame and why I’m perturbed by the addition of CF Andrew Jones.

(1:00:43) Is it time to panic if you’re a Knicks fan? Well, not after last night’s biggest margin of victory in franchise history. I’ll peek in to see what’s happening there and the rest of the NBA.

(1:07:36) The Sharks make a deal. The Sabres sign one of their own to a long term deal and a goalie fight is what’s happening on the ice in the NHL.

(1:12:43) There isn’t much to report down under at the Australian Open. Will it stay that way heading into the weekend?

And MUCH MORE in between.

On this Martin Luther King day, honoring the great civil rights leader, thank you for fulfilling a dream that I’m living in, talking sports and sharing it with each and every one of you as the latest podcast has arrived. On deck:

(6:39) NFL’s Championship Weekend is set, but not before some heartbreak in Buffalo and Chicago. Another gut check win by the Rams. Did the Broncos win come at a huge expense? Are the Patriots back? I’ll recap the Divisional Round with plenty of thrills, controversy and heroics from all four games. The Giants officially name John Harbaugh as their coach and Kevin Stefanski finds a home in Atlanta.

(35:43) Finally, the National Championship game arrives in Miami tonight as the Hurricanes will try to shut down the juggernaut that is the Indiana Hoosiers.

(41:08) The LA Dodgers add another Ferrari to the garage as they sign RF Kyle Tucker. Is this a baseball problem? Or are the two time defending World Champs the issue? The Mets sign Bo Bichette, but I’m a bit confused over this as I’ll explain.

(50:25) Ja Morant wants to stay in Memphis. Kevin Durant continues his climb on the all time scoring list as the NBA passes the halfway mark of the season.

(56:33) Rangers GM Chris Drury sends a letter to the fans regarding a forthcoming retool, not rebuild?

(1:04:34) Carlos Alcaraz goes for the career Slam down under as the first tennis tournament of 2026 is here with the Australian Open.

And MUCH MORE in between.

Best believe I’m chomping at the bit to unpack all of what the sports universe has to and will offer as the latest podcast is forthcoming. On deck:

(6:30) NFL Wild Card Weekend finally did not disappoint. I’ll take on all that happened over the weekend (Packers coach Matt LaFleur on the hot seat? Defending champs done in Philly. Can the Bills go on a Super Bowl run? And more!) preview the final game of this round in Pittsburgh and discuss some off the field hires in Miami (new GM) and Atlanta (a familiar face as the president of football ops)

(40:51) The National Championship is set in College Football. Do the Miami Hurricanes have any shot to stun the juggernaut that is the Indiana Hoosiers. Also, what does the committee need to do to shorten this long playoff schedule?

(54:50) Will the Grizzlies move Ja Morant before the trade deadline next month? Is he worth the risk?

(1:01:29) Are the Buffalo Sabres on the verge of breaking a record streak that no one saw coming?

(1:05:57) Alex Bregman signs a $175M dollar contract with the Cubs. A falling out in The Bronx with the Yankees and Cody Bellinger? Where will Bo Bichette and Kyle Tucker end up as free agency continues to drag in MLB?

And MUCH MORE in between.

With an enormous weekend of football (and other sports, of course) I’ll have everything you need to hear to get your sports fix in and then some as the latest podcast has arrived. On deck:

(6:32) NFL Wild Card Weekend is upon us. I’ll share the top storylines of the six games forthcoming and breakdown each game to get you prepared for what lies ahead. Add John Harbaugh to the mix of coaches looking for work. Where could he possibly end up?

(46:51) College football semifinals kick off tonight with Miami-Ole Miss and tomorrow as Oregon-Indiana will renew acquaintances. I’ll make a case for each team winning a national championship and who’ll make it to the big game next Monday night.

(57:11) Trae Young is no longer an Atlanta Hawk as he was traded to Washington last night. How surprising is that and what was he exactly dealt for?

(1:04:33) Are the Colorado Avalanche is the midst of a slump, losers of two games in a row in regulation?

(1:10:17) The Chicago Cubs made a solid under the radar trade, acquiring a starter from the Miami Marlins to fortify their rotation as pitchers and catchers reporting to spring training is less than five weeks away.

And MUCH MORE in between.

The pomp and circumstance of the holidays have come and gone. The New Year is in full swing. It’s time to get to work and start off a huge year for yours truly with the first podcast of 2026! On deck:

(6:41) I start off with a ‘thank you’ to my Day One’s or my First Day finding the YouTube channel/podcast and being a part of it. There’ll be plenty of content coming down the pike in the days, weeks, months and 2026 overall, so stay tuned.

(9:43) You couldn’t have scripted a better ending to the NFL regular season. Two rivals. Win or go home. How did it all shake down in Pittsburgh as the Ravens were this close from winning the AFC North? I’ll have a complete breakdown of a wild game, take a look at what the rest of the weekend had to offer (I.e. Are the Seahawks the team to beat in the NFC?) a peek at the Wild Card schedule as it’ll kick off in Carolina on Saturday.

(35:46) The final four in college football is set as the semifinals will pick up later this week. The quarterfinals weren’t much to write home about as I’ll recap the four quarterfinals games on New Year’s Eve and Day. Is Indiana a shoo-in to win the National Championship?

(46:44) Nikola Jokic suffered a significant knee injury, but will be sidelined for a month. How crucial is that for the Nuggets and the rest of the NBA?

(53:09) I’ll see what the college basketball landscape is up to as conference play is well underway.

(54:11) The NHL Winter Classic was far from it down in Miami between the Rangers-Panthers. Also, Colorado is on pace to smash the all time record for points in the regular season. Will they accomplish it?

(1:01:34) Five weeks from Wednesday, pitchers and catchers will start reporting in MLB. Still no word on where the big name free agents will be going? Does this have to do with the impending expiration of the CBA?

And MUCH MORE in between.

No more egg nog, Mariah Carey or unwrapping gifts. With Christmas behind us and a big New Year’s Eve forthcoming, right now it’s about catching you up on all that’s happening in the sports universe. On deck:

(6:38) Some housekeeping to take care of. I want to wish a BIG TIME THANKS for all of those who followed me, the podcast, YouTube channel , etc. over the past year and beyond. I’m also hosting my Wednesday livestream at 9:30am ET (Time could change. Keep yourself locked on the YouTube channel for updates) running through Manhattan as I close out 2025 on New Year’s Eve in grand fashion. Also, no podcast on Thursday due to the holiday.

(9:17) It’s come down to this. NFL drama for Week 18 has Carolina visiting Tampa By for the NFC South title. Seattle invading San Francisco for the top seed in the NFC. And game 272 will be in Pittsburgh between the Ravens & Steelers for the AFC North. Who’ll come out on top? Who’ll go home?

(41:00) Is top ranked Indiana under the most pressure to win the college football playoff? I’ll have the top storylines and breakdown the quarterfinals as it picks up on New Year’s Eve.

(51:14) Are the Knicks the best team in the East? Is San Antonio already an elite team? Trouble brewing in LA with the Lakers? I’ll answer all of those questions and take a look at what’s happening in the Association this week.

(1:01:37) The NHL Winter Classic is set for Friday in primetime. It’ll be in the home of the Miami Marlins as the New York Rangers will face off against the Florida Panthers. Is it possible that one of their key players could be in uniform for the game?

(1:08:14) When will the top MLB free agents sign? Is this becoming ridiculous?

And MUCH MORE in between.

(6:40) Some quick housekeeping as I’ll share the podcast schedule over the next couple of weeks, plus some news on daily content and my livestreams on my YouTube channel that you won’t want to miss.

(9:05) NFL Week 16 did not disappoint. You had wild comebacks in Seattle and Chicago. A new division leader in Carolina. Is it time to take Jacksonville seriously in the AFC? A crazy ending to the game in Detroit as Pittsburgh hangs on to win. The playoff picture is clearing up as we’re down to the final two weeks of the season.

(42:37) Are Alabama and Miami live underdogs in the college football playoffs? I’ll preview the quarterfinals and share the top storylines, while recapping what took place over the weekend in the opening round of the tournament.

(54:42) It’s a big week for the NBA as the Christmas Day slate will have five big games (four of them Western Conference matchups) Is OKC slowing down a bit after losing their third game (and two of three) to Minnesota?

(1:00:22) Sidney Crosby has passed Penguins legend and NHL all time great, Mario Lemieux for the franchise leader in points as I’ll see what the latest is on the ice.

(1:04:09) Japanese slugger Munetaka Murakami signs with a team in a big market, but it may not be what you think as we’re still waiting for big time free agents to sign deals in MLB.

(1:06:52) Jake Paul gets knocked out by Anthony Joshua on Friday night in their Netflix fight on Friday. Does he deserve more respect or ridicule for his performance?

And MUCH MORE in between.

A busy few days of sports means a jam packed show for you kooks out there who can’t get enough of all that’s happening as the latest podcast has arrived. On deck:

(6:30) MLB’s hot stove has heated up, but so have the fans of the New York Mets as two of their key players (Edwin Diaz and Pete Alonso) have signed elsewhere. What is the plan that the front office has in store? Do the fans actually trust GM David Stearns and has the faith waned with the owner, Steve Cohen? I’ll check on what else has happened to date as the Winter Meetings conclude today.

(24:33) NFL Week 15 has some interesting games on the schedule. The big news is the return of QB Philip Rivers, who the Colts got out of retirement to help stop the bleeding of a losing streak and save their dying playoff hopes.

(37:00) Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore was terminated immediately for getting involved with a staff member, but was also arrested on an alleged assault charge. Where do they go for a replacement?

(41:51) Oklahoma City has matched the 2016 Warriors for the best start in NBA history. Will they end up breaking their record 73-9 when it’s all said and done?

(50:24) The NHL has been going about its business this year, laying low, but I’ll peek in to see what’s going on throughout the league.

Ready for what the sports universe has thrown at us as I throw it back to you from my lens, with the latest podcast on arrival.

(6:30) We’ve learned quite a bit in Week 14 of the NFL. Teams that are on the verge of not making the playoffs (I.e. Colts, Ravens and yes, the Chiefs) Controversy in Baltimore as the Ravens go ahead TD was overturned. Was it a bad call? Or is it a bad rule? I’ll bring you up to speed on what took place as we’re now down to the final four weeks of the season.

(37:29) The college football playoff committee has spoken. They made one huge error leaving out Notre Dame as one of the final twelve teams to qualify for the tournament. What the snub means for the Fighting Irish moving forward? Plus, Indiana is the #1 seed in the playoff. Are they the team to beat? How much pressure will be on them to deliver a championship?

(51:27) Who’s excited for the NBA Cup? I can’t say I am, but there are intriguing storylines surrounding a few teams that are part of the in season tournament.

(1:00:31) What has happened to the NHL’s Metropolitan Division? Will this be their version of the WWE’s Battle Royale?

(1:07:10) MLB’s Winter Meetings have arrived. Will the Hot Stove have their burners full? Or will it not generate a spark?

The final month has arrived to start off a new week as I get reacquainted with you all on everything happening in sports as the latest podcast has arrived. On deck:

(6:38) I’ll share what yours truly has been up to over the past two weeks as the podcast (and livestreams) have been on a bit of a pause. I’ll explain it all and what lies ahead for the rest of the week and next.

(9:55) Two teams in the NFL South divisions (Panthers & Texans) are making a play for a potential playoff spot in their respective conferences. Are the Chiefs or Lions in jeopardy of missing the postseason? What about the Cowboys? Can the Bears keep the #1 seed in the NFC? Will the Eagles bounce back? Is it time for the Steelers to move on from Mike Tomlin? Was the Bills win over Pittsburgh fool’s gold? I’ll have the entire picture of where we’re at in the NFL as Week 13 comes to a close.

(39:43) College football Saturday turned out to be a major disappointment. Even more disappointing was Lane Kiffin leaving Ole Miss for LSU. I’ll break down his departure and the whole landscape of the sport as to which teams could qualify for the college football playoff.

(48:33) With the NBA Cup set for next week, there are three big storylines (Lakers, Pistons and Thunder) in the NBA at the quarter pole of the year.

(53:21) The Colorado Avalanche have shown to be the best team in the NHL with just one regulation loss so far this season as I’ll review what’s happening on the ice.

(55:37) You’ll get my instant reaction on the Mets signing former Yankee reliever Devin Williams to a three year deal. It’s a spot that you won’t want to miss, plus, what’s the hullabaloo with Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto at odds. I’ll detail a few of the moves that have taken place with the Winter Meetings commencing in Orlando on Sunday.

And MUCH MORE in between.

It’s almost time to say ‘thanks’ with the big holiday just a week away, but for now, I’m thankful that another podcast is here for you to gobble up on all of the sports nuggets that I’ll serve over the next hour plus. On deck:

(6:38) I have a couple of housekeeping items to unpack. The upcoming podcast and livestream schedule for 11/24-28 will be compromised. Please stay informed on all that’ll take place over the holiday week on my YouTube channel (link is below), as I’ll have updates over the weekend and into next week.

(8:23) Is the Chiefs season in peril? Why are the Eagles always seem to be in the middle of controversy? Will Joe Burrow Return? Aaron Rodgers health status are among the topics of discussion heading into an NFL Week 12 with a few huge games on the schedule.

(34:13) It’s the calm before the storm in college football as I’ll zero in on Saturday’s games before a slew of monster matchups next weekend.

(38:55) LeBron James is back in the Lakers lineup after missing the first 14 games of the season. How will that impact the team as they’re off to a great start? Plus, key injuries to Giannis and Victor Wembanyama and when they’ll return?

(53:00) Is Maple Leafs coach Craig Berube in trouble up in Toronto after a mediocre start to their year?

(1:00:27) MLB signs a modest media deal with a familiar network over the next three years. Is this a good thing for baseball? Plus, the latest players accepting the qualifying offer, including Trent Grisham of the Yankees. The asinine trade of Orioles pitcher, Grayson Rodriguez to Anaheim. Bye bye Frankie Montas. The death of Randy Jones and more.

And MUCH MORE in between.

Lock in to all of what’s happened over the past few days in the world of sports with a full perspective from the lens of yours truly as the latest podcast has arrived. On deck:

(6:30) NFL Week 11 did not disappoint. The Eagles continue to win ugly. Are the Chiefs in danger of missing the playoffs? Questions about the Buccaneers and Chargers? And a surprise at the top of the NFC North are the main focal points of what I’ll discuss on a busy Sunday throughout the league.

(41:31) There’ll be a shuffle at the top of the college football rankings as Texas A&M avoided a huge scare. Oklahoma stuns Alabama and Georgia takes care of Texas as the playoff picture becomes a little clear.

(48:53) How much of the Lakers were allegedly part of the recent gambling scandal that’s put the NBA on notice?

(57:57) Some key injuries have been the big story throughout the NHL over the past few days.

(1:04:05) The Mariners keep one of their big bats for the next five years. Plus, Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge win the NL & AL MVP. Surprised?

And MUCH MORE in between.

Time to check in on what the sports universe has in store as another big weekend is upon us as the latest podcast has arrived. On deck:

(6:19) I’ll cover what to watch for as the NFL’s ’second half’ of the season is on the horizon. The firing of Giants head coach Brian Daboll. Was it a no brainer? Plus, the key matchups that headline the Week 11 schedule.

(36:44) As college football is down to its last few weeks of the regular season, is it actually BETTER than the NFL right now?

(43:53) The Dallas Mavericks finally put GM Nico Harrison out of their misery by firing the embattled boss. It may have been warranted, but there is another important person in the organization who’s culpable for what’s taken place there since the controversial trade of Luka Doncic.

(53:11) All is mostly quiet on the ice in the NHL as I’ll check in on the latest there.

(58:54) MLB’s award season concludes tonight with the MVP announcement. Will there be a surprise winner, considering the recent winners have been what we expected? Also, is there talk of Pirates ace and newly minted NL Cy Young Award winner Paul Skenes on the trade block?

And MUCH MORE in between.

Kicking off the unofficial beginning of summer as we remember those who fought for our freedom in this country. Thanks to the servicemen and women who’ve done so. And thank you for being a part of this latest podcast with all that’s happening in sports. On deck:

(6:57) Both the Knicks and Timberwolves get back in their respective conference finals. Can they get the equalizer to ensure that their series will go at least six games? I’ll also add in that Caitlin Clark will be out of the lineup for the Indiana Fever for two weeks with a quad strain. Who knows if this is a blip in her season? Or could this be re-aggravated sometime down the road?

(25:48) Are the Oilers and Panthers on a collision course for another Stanley Cup Final? With Edmonton up 2-1 and Florida looking for a sweep, it’s certainly looking that way.

(36:56) Two months of the baseball season is in the books. Where do we stand at the first main juncture of a long, marathon of 162 games? The Mets have a good weekend vs. the Dodgers and win their first series in almost two weeks.

(54:18) College football revises the playoff seedings from conference championship byes to normal seeding.

(57:01) Alex Palou is your Indianapolis 500 winner. The first Spanish driver to win at the Indianapolis Speedway.

(59:30) Another Grand Slam is here, this time in tennis as the French Open is underway. I’ll preview what may lie ahead at Roland Garros over the next two weeks.

The sun is starting to set on the first month of the year. ALREADY? But not without yours truly getting into every nook and cranny on what is happening in the sports universe as the latest podcast has arrived! On deck:

(6:48) We’re down to the final three games of the NFL season. Two will be played on Sunday as Championship Sunday is on the horizon. I’ll uncover the big storylines (Chiefs chasing history. Is it Josh Allen’s time? Will the Commanders magic carpet ride lead them to New Orleans? Can Philadelphia get back to the Super Bowl?) preview both games and predict who’ll face one another down in the Big Easy for Super Bowl LIX. I’ll get into the coaching hires that have taken place (Ben Johnson to Chicago and Aaron Glenn to the Jets) Why the Glenn hire was a good one, but it comes with a caveat? The Jaguars fired their GM Trent Baalke in light of Buccaneers OC Liam Coen passing on their head coaching position. Where do they go from here?

(40:27) Ohio State rebounds from a brutal home loss to Michigan to run the table and win a National Championship over Notre Dame Monday night. Why they end up having the last laugh?

(45:47) College basketball will slowly but surely creep into our sports consciousness in the weeks to come, but I’ll talk about what’s happening in the Association. Not much to unfurl, but we could be in the process of Jimmy Butler finally getting traded from Miami. I’ll detail a huge haul by the Phoenix Suns which could precipitate a deal before the deadline on February 6th. The Dallas Mavericks suffer another key injury (Dereck Lively) to their depleted roster. And Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (aka SGA) is on the fast track to an MVP with a career high 54 points recorded last night in a win vs. Utah. I’ll see what else has transpired throughout the NBA as we’re past the halfway point of the season.

(56:41) The NHL has been rather quiet. Other than the league’s best player (Connor McDavid) being suspended for three games due to his actions in a game vs. Vancouver. And the Rangers are unbeaten in the last nine games as they try to make up ground in the Metropolitan Division.

(1:00:24) As for baseball, other than a few fringe signings (Tim Anderson to the Angels. Paul Sewald to Cleveland) the baseball writers have inducted Ichiro Suzuki, CC Sabathia and Billy Wagner to the Hall of Fame. Are they all worthy of enshrinement?

(1:07:08) We’re heading into the final few days of the Australian Open. Novak Djokovic is seeking his 25th Grand Slam singles title. He beat Carlos Alcaraz in the quarterfinals (I have an interesting observation on Alcaraz) but will he get to a final and possibly beat Jannik Sinner. On the women’s side, Aryna Sabalenka is looking for a three peat as she’s reached the final. She’ll face Madison Keys, who upset Iga Swiatek in the semis. Can she pull off another major upset?

It’s a holiday Monday, honoring the late, great Dr. Martin Luther King for all he stood for. On a MUCH lesser scale, you know what I stand for when it comes to anything and everything happening in between the white lines and beyond as the latest podcast is here! On deck:

(6:43) We’re down to the final four in the NFL. With just three more games to go in this season, it was a good, not great Divisional Round. I’ll recap the big headlines of the past couple of days, including the Lions disappointing ending, the Commanders upside and magic. Lamar Jackson & co. didn’t deliver in Buffalo. The Eagles were fortunate to get out with a win despite Saquon’s monster game. And the Chiefs keep on Chiefing as they’re in another AFC Championship Game. I’ll break it all down and share my thoughts on the two games next Sunday leading up to Super Bowl LIX.

(33:54) Is there a college football championship game tonight? It seems like an afterthought after a ten day layoff from the semifinal games, but I’ll preview some of the key points for Notre Dame-Ohio State as a champion will be crowned this evening.

(39:29) The Association is front and center on this MLK Day. The only juicy storyline over the past few days is the return of Jimmy Butler in Miami. How will this play out? Is there a trade on the horizon? I’ll see what else is happening as the league is at or just about past the halfway point of their season.

(48:03) On the ice, there was an achievement that the NHL has never seen. Penguins goalie Alex Nedeljkovic is the first player in league history to score a goal and assist in the same game at the position. There’s a possible suspension for one of the best players in the sport (Oilers Connor McDavid) And Alex Ovechkin adds another goal to inch closer to Wayne Gretzky all time, but there could be another added layer to this magical season as we get to mid April.

(54:47) Are the Dodgers World Series Champions for 2025 in January? It’s sure looking that way with the signings of Roki Sasaki and lefty bullpen arm Tanner Scott as they’re locked and loaded to defend their title. I have to add the sad news of both Bob Uecker and Jeff Torborg who passed away over the last few days at the ages of 90 & 83 respectively.

(1:01:57) What is going on down under at the Australian Open? Between the players, fans and media, it’s been a wild few days regarding Novak Djokovic and the local media. Danielle Collins getting heckled by the fans and returning barbs with them in losing her match to Madison Keys. A big upset as Daniil Medvedev is ousted from the tournament. A crazy past few days as we turn the corner to the second week of the first Grand Slam of the year. NOTE: The Blue Jays sign Anthony Santander in some breaking news at the time. A five year, $90 million dollar deal as another free agent is off the market.

Getting into a groove as we approach the middle of January, catching up and presenting to you all of what’s going on in the sports world as the latest podcast comes your way. On deck:

(6:27) I have to start off by railing against the NFL Wild Card Weekend being underwhelming and rather lame honestly. It was salvaged in the nightcap down in Tampa as rookie QB Jayden Daniels led the Commanders to their franchise’s first playoff victory in 19 years, beating the Buccaneers 23-20. Did this cement the organization’s odor of the regime of Daniel Snyder years ago? I’ll go through the rest of the schedule where the Texans, Eagles, Ravens and Bills coasted to victory. I’ll get on both Justin Herbert and Jordan Love as far as their performances this weekend. No surprise as Mike Vrabel is your new coach of the New England Patriots. The nightmare continues in Cleveland as Deshaun Watson re-injures his Achilles and is likely done for 2025. Will they pivot and draft a QB, knowing that they still have to fork over $94 million to Watson?

(42:10) The National Championship is set for college football as Penn State and Texas will have long winters, springs and into summer after suffering brutal defeats at the hands of Notre Dame and Ohio State, respectively. I’ll dissect both games, see what went wrong for the Nittany Lions and Longhorns and briefly look ahead to the title game next Monday night. There was some sad news as former Colorado Buffalo coach, Bill McCartney died at the age of 84.

(52:48) Not much is happening in the Association as I’ll touch on the Cavaliers getting their 12 game winning streak snapped. Zion Williamson’s tardiness leads to a suspension. Will he ever grow up? And a historic achievement by Nikola Jokic and Russell Westbrook, recording triple doubles in the same game for the second time this year. I will check to see what else is going on as teams are approaching the midway point of the season.

(59:59) Same for the NHL as I’ll keep an eye on Alex Ovechkin’s pursuit on Wayne Gretzky’s record, the Bruins snap a six game skid in unconventional fashion and keep you abreast of what’s happening on the ice over the past few days.

(1:04:55) Baseball is about a month away from pitchers and catchers reporting to spring training. What’s the latest regarding the Mets signing Pete Alonso and reports of a contract in place?

(1:09:00) We already have an upset of a top men’s player down under at the Australian Open as #11 seed Stefanos Tsitsipas has been ousted by 20 year old Alex Michelsen. Besides that, Novak Djokovic, Carlos Alcaraz, Coco Gauff and Iga Swiatek has advanced as they’re just getting started in the first Grand Slam of 2025.

The weather outside may be chilly, but I’ll have your earbuds, speakers or headphones hot as I’ve got lots to say with what the sports world has to offer with the latest podcast out now! On deck:

(6:49) Football fans! The NFL playoffs are just about here! I’ll preview all of what Wild Card Weekend will have to offer, with plenty of huge storylines and go through all of the games with analysis and predictions to get you ready for six games over three days. Is Lamar Jackson & Josh Allen under the most pressure? What about Mike Tomlin? The health of Jalen Hurts? The psyche on the Vikings? All of those will be answered and an update on the latest head coach firings in the sport.

(40:25) The college football playoff resumes over the next couple of nights. Similar to the NFL, I’ll break down the key points of both games (Notre Dame-Penn St. and Ohio St.-Texas) and ask the bigger question, is this Ohio State’s title to lose? Also, what is the National Championship game that the world wants to see?

(51:54) Are you sold on the Cleveland Cavaliers being an NBA title contender? They snapped the 15 game winning streak of the OKC Thunder last night and now are in the middle of an eleven game win streak. Do you need to see more? I’ll keep you posted on some big returns (I.e. Zion Williamson and Paolo Banchero) and one big injury (Kyrie Irving) and what else is happening on the hard court.

(1:02:02)The NHL will have two outdoor games scheduled for next January and February, both of those contests…in Florida? I’ll dissect the Rangers visiting Miami to play in loanDepot Park (aka Marlins Park) and the Lightning hosting the Bruins in Raymond James Stadium (the Buccaneers home stadium) as they were granted dates to be played under sunshine and palm trees? I’ll check the schedule over the weekend and keep you abreast of what’s going on throughout the league.

(1:11:11) Baseball is rather quiet with just a few transactions to discuss, that don’t include Pete Alonso, Alex Bregman, Anthony Santander, Tanner Scott, etc. There was a sad passing as former Orioles pitcher Brian Matusz died at the age of 37.

(1:13:19) Tennis is back in our consciousness as the first Grand Slam tournament of the year (the Australian Open) is just about here. Will Carlos Alcaraz complete his career slam? Can Jannik Sinner go back to back Aussie titles? What about Aryna Sabalenka going for a three peat down under? Is Iga Swiatek ready to claim her status of #1 woman in the world? You’ll get my thoughts on all of the above as we usher in another sport to the podcast over the next two weeks.

The holiday festivities are well behind us. The New Year is in full swing. It’s time to get to work as a big 2025 lies ahead for yours truly, delivering what I do best. Serving up unedited, unapologetic and entertaining sports talk as the latest podcast is here. On deck:

(6:31) The NFL mercifully ended yesterday as it was a regular season to forget. I’ll explain the reasons why in detail on how underwhelming the past 18 weeks have been. I’ll recap the lack of drama over the past two days as there weren’t any interesting developments or teams that snuck into the playoffs. Now, wild card weekend is forthcoming. I’ll share the schedule for the upcoming six games, but will spare the storylines and previews until Thursday’s podcast. Tyreek Hill expressed his frustration after not making the playoffs for the first time in his career, mentioning how he's "out" of Miami. Is a move away from South Beach forthcoming? You’ve already seen a couple of coaches fired (Jarod Mayo in New England, Doug Pederson in Jacksonville.) Are there more to come? What about the state of the Giants?

(30:30) Notre Dame flexed their muscles and beat Georgia to punch their ticket to the semifinals in the college football playoffs. I’ll have a preview and uncover the storylines of the two games on the next podcast as they’ll resume on Thursday night between Notre Dame-Penn State and Friday where Ohio State-Texas will square off. There were a couple of noted injuries that took place, including the Indiana QB Kurtis Roarke, playing the whole year on a torn ACL? And sad news as the father of Georgia coach Kirby Smart, dies from complications of hip surgery after taking a fall on New Year’s Eve at the age of 76.

(37:49) The Jimmy Butler saga unfurled over the weekend as the disgruntled player gets his wish, wanting to be traded and away from the Miami Heat. A deal will be in the works at some point, but it’s not as easy as it seems. Plus, how much does Butler have left? As for on the court, you have a clash of the titans on Wednesday, when the top two teams in each conference will square off in Cleveland as OKC will come to town. Which team do I trust more in the long run? I’ll see what else is happening throughout the Association (WAIT! The return of Kawhi Leonard?) in this first week of the new year.

(58:36) It’s been a quiet week on the ice, but Alexander Ovechkin has been making noise as he scored two goals since we last met. He is now 23 goals away from being the all time goal scoring leader in NHL history. Will he ever slow down? I’ll check on what else is going on as there’ve been a handful of teams that have reached or surpassed the halfway point of the season.

(1:02:56) Don’t look now, MLB fans. Pitchers and catchers report in six weeks. There’s still a couple of name free agents out there (Pete Alonso & Alex Bregman, among others) but there were only minor transactions that took place. Veteran starting pitcher, Charlie Morton signs with the Orioles. INF Cavan Biggio signs a minor league deal with the Royals. That’s been the extent of it as of this moment.
