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.

And MUCH MORE in between.

Closing out the first week of December with a jam packed podcast that’ll make any sports fan curious to know more about what’s going on throughout the entire landscape. On deck:

(6:38) Feels good to be back as I’ll share some insight of what went down with yours truly over the past week and a half.

(9:35) NFL Week 14 should not disappoint as there are various matchups that’ll be instrumental in which teams will have a leg up on the playoff race, heading into the final month of the season, starting with Dallas in Detroit on Thursday night where the Lions desperately need a win to stay alive in the NFC.

(28:05) College football’s season comes to an end with the Conference Championships this weekend. Does anyone care about the SEC & Big Ten title games? Also, what will the committee do when it comes to the fate of Notre Dame, Miami and even Alabama if they lose to Georgia on Saturday?

(39:38) Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo may be on his way out of Milwaukee as discussions have begun on a possible landing spot for the former MVP, but could a calf injury suffered last night derail his departure? Speaking of which, did Chris Paul get a raw deal from the Clippers after he was shown the exit in the middle of the night while the team is on a long road trip?

(54:58) The NHL has been rather quiet as it continues to skate along into its second full month of play.

(58:42) MLB will head to Orlando as the Winter Meetings will commence on Sunday. How active will it be when it comes to the top free agents out there? And the Mets have replaced their old closer with a familiar face from the other side of town, yet again!

And MUCH MORE in between.

Does Miami Get In? Surveying The College Playoff Landscape! A Lions Must Win In Week 14? A Poor Schedule Sets Up NBA Cup. Ovechkin Returning Sooner Or Later? MLB’s Preposterous Golden At Bat

Counting down the days and weeks until Christmas and the new year, but just seconds away from getting your fix on ALL of what’s happening in the sports universe as the latest podcast is here. On deck:

(6:33) It’s coming down to this in college football. Conference Championship weekend is here with not much drama and intrigue as teams set themselves up for the first ever twelve team playoff. Is there controversy surrounding the selection committee leaving Miami out of the playoff mix, despite them being ranked 12th in the nation? If SMU has an awful performance in the ACC Championship, could Miami sneak in? Besides that, you don’t have much to hang your hat on when it comes to any possible shakeups to the postseason bracket. I’ll preview the games to see whether or not Texas will exact revenge from Georgia. Can Penn State put up a fight against the #1 team in the nation? Will Boise & Arizona State punch their tickets to the dance? Everything you need to know about what’s going to take place, I’ve got you.

(29:52) Week 14 in the NFL might as well be WEAK 14, because the schedule is just that. Although tonight, you have the best matchup by far on the docket with the Packers will visit the Lions for an NFC North battle. As much as Green Bay needs to win to keep pace in the division, I’ll share why this game is more important for Detroit in the grand scheme of things? I’ll get into the three game suspension the league handed down to Azeez Al Shaair for his hit on Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence last Sunday. Was it too harsh? Is this the end of Doug Peterson’s tenure as head coach in Jacksonville?

(41:52) The NBA Cup matchups are set (for those that are into it. Yours truly, notwithstanding) Plus, I detest the scheduling of these games has me appalled. Even one of the best players in the league (ahem, SGA of OKC) said the scenario is ‘confusing.’ So I’m not alone as far as being on top of this in-season tournament. I’ll get into that a little bit. Another key injury to Suns forward Kevin Durant. And how the Warriors and Lakers have come back to the pack after great starts.

(54:35) Alex Ovechkin’s recovery from a fractured tibia has been well ahead of schedule as he’s been skating since the injury two weeks ago, but is he that close to being back in the lineup? The Dallas Stars suffered a big injury to their team as Tyler Sequin will be out 4-6 months after hip surgery. The Minnesota Wild have overtaken the Winnipeg Jets in the Central Division with torrid play and have the most points in the sport as of today.

(1:01:16) Will the MLB Hot Stove really cook over the next week? The Winter Meetings commence on Sunday through next Thursday. It’s been reported that Juan Soto is expected to announce where he’ll sign in the coming days. You know my stance on this, if you’ve listened to the podcast. What about the Dodgers deferred money on signed free agents tallying up to 1B dollars? Is this fair? I’ll unpack this silly idea of commissioner Rob Manfred’s idea of a “golden at-bat”, meaning that their best hitter can get an extra plate appearance even if his turn was up in the lineup. Seriously? And also look to see which free agents have signed on to new teams if you’re (Aroldis Chapman, Kyle Higashioka or Matthew Boyd).

NFL's Final Month, MLB Winter Meetings, Heisman Trophy, NBA & NHL News

As winter slowly approaches, the sports scene heats up as I’ll dissect all that’s going on with this weeks edition of The JAYREELZ Podcast. The final quarter of the NFL season has begun and it certainly did not disappoint. Wild finishes in Miami, Oakland and Kansas City were just the start of another wacky Sunday in the NFL. Also, the Jets and Giants were both victorious on the same day in almost two years, with big contributions from their respective first round picks, Sam Darnold and Saquon Barkley. I’ll get into that and everything that took place over the weekend in Week 14 across the league. A Heisman Trophy winner has been crowned in college football. Oklahoma QB Kyler Murray gets the nod, but not without controversy. I’ll reveal what the furor was over what the QB said, and what makes for an interesting matchup with fellow nominee, Alabama QB Tua Tagovailoa in the college football playoff on December 29th. The MLB Winter Meetings commence in Las Vegas today. I’ll share what to possibly expect as we may see some big moves take place as the Hot Stove will be sure to cook up a lot of rumors over the next few days. Plus, the NHL receives a new franchise and the latest in the NBA on this weeks jam packed episode of The JAYREELZ Podcast. (Episode 43)
