* - Due to technical difficulties, the audio failed to register on this episode from the mixer, and we ended up with just a recording of ambient room audio. So, it's tough to hear everyone, but there's some good content in there, much of it spontaneous, that we wanted to serve up to you anyway. Enjoy some important sports takes about fan gear violations, missed extra points, the defeat formation, and an impromptu fantasy draft of classic mall stores.…

The Kraft signal went up for the Mayo firing/coach hiring of Jason's beloved Patriots.

We dig into the mailbag and read an impassioned note from listener "Joey C. from Coney Island." Then we discuss the proposed "Golden At-Bat Rule" in baseball as a springboard to introducing some of the best new rule ideas - straight from the C&C development team - for all four major sports to make things WAY better.

We wonder where the term "Laundry List" came from and who the experts are who claim that certain unhealthy things eliminate random amounts of time from your life. We share illogical fears like ladders sliding off the tops of vans and impaling us while driving. Anthony hosts a round of America's favorite game, "Who Sucks More," asking Jason about two types of annoying fans at sporting events. Then, we give the rundown of our respective birthday baseball lineups - our top 9 famous people who share our birthdays, placed into a baseball-style lineup, plus a starting pitcher, and debate who has the best roster.…

After some NFL takes and a discussion of whether or not the Deshaun Watson trade is the worst in sports history, we dive into some of the all time most disapointing "knock off" products that we ended up with, because they were chepear, healthier, or just available. We're talking Hydrox cookies, Loc Blocs, and Go Bots. Then we discuss the shocking news that Capri Sun is going to be selling it's drinks in bottles and we wax on about the iconic packaging like pouches and cannisters that "Make" certain products what they are.…

The interim producer joins the C&C boys for round 2 of renaming American sports teams. We take another handful of teams from the four major American sports that we think have mediocre or crappy team names, and come up with much better ways for them to re-brand themselves. This time around, we fix the Las Vegas Raiders, the Atlanta Braves, the New York Jets, the Brooklyn Nets, and our own local Carolina Hurricanes.

Fans of professional American sports are either going to love or hate this episode but make no mistake, we are making the world a better place, once again. Jason and Anthony go through a dozen of the worst-named teams in pro sports and give them a naming makeover. You always wondered why the Lakers and Jazz kept their lame names that were tied in to previous home cities or what the hell is a guardian?? Well, imagine living in a sports universe that included a little bit of Tampa Smoke, Hollywood Elite, L.A. Aftershock, and St. Louis Arch Enemies! We also kick off the episode with a round of America's favorite game, "Who Sucks More" and ask why the likes of Chelsea Handler and Tenacious D are "Still in My Life??!"…
