NFL Hopscotch In KC, GB & WSH. WK 14 Winners & Losers. FBS Change Among Top 4? NBA Storylines With Kyrie, KD, Harden & PG-13. Who Mets Should Pursue? MLB Indians No More?
Come on through to see what I’ve got cookin’ as I have plenty of opinions and analysis on everything happening in the world of sports as Episode 168 is ready to be served. On deck:
(3:11) The NFL playoff chase is starting to come into place as many teams have moved up (or down) the ladder when it comes to seeding in the AFC & NFC. I’ll discuss the winners and losers of Week 14, including the Steelers underwhelming performance in Buffalo. The Washington Football Team controlling their destiny. Green Bay and Kansas City sitting pretty at the top of their respective conferences. Will the Jets go 0-16? And a look ahead to Week 15.
(33:26) LSU highlights this past weekend in college football. One good (upsetting Florida). One bad (a self imposed ban for playing in a bowl game this year. REALLY?) With conference championship weekend upcoming, how will it play out when it comes to who’ll represent the awesome foursome for the college football playoff?
(41:20) The NBA preseason has begun. I’ll juggle storylines from four players that made news this past week. Kyrie Irving (avoiding the media), Kevin Durant (plays in a game for the first time in 18 months), James Harden (wants out of Houston) and Paul George (signs for the max with the Clippers) as we’re eight days away from real games being played.
(49:40) On the college basketball front, Coach K wants the powers that be to reassess the landscape of the sport in light of cancellations and postponements throughout the early part of this season. Is he right?
(53:31) The MLB Hot Stove hasn’t heated up, although the Mets have made some news with the signing of a catcher and a new GM. Did they make the right move for James McCann instead of J.T. Realmuto? Also, who I’d like to see the Amazins’ pursue as we wait for free agency to heat up. And the Indians are going to have a makeover? Why this is good for the Cleveland baseball team (not so much for the fans of that region) NOTE: It’s been reported that the Indians will carry the nickname for the 2021 season as they look to rebrand beyond next year.
(1:02:56) Plus, my Hero and Zero of the Week.
