Segment 1: NFL roundup – AFC and NFC Championship Throwdown! Beautiful playoff chaos. Rising to the moment in the playoffs – plays to make and plays to take. An accidental NBA tangent. 70 point game shenanigans - nice defense, NBA. Bill Laimbeer fisticuffs. A new chapter for the Orioles. A Ben Simmons drive by and NBA draft suck buckets. The Ben Johnson coaching pull out method, Dan Quinn (officially hired after we recorded), and the Cowboys playoff meltdown. Coaches and teams that rise to the moment (and those that don’t). Brock Purday clutches up. Ravens – Chiefs. Playoff mode Travis Kelce, the invisible Ravens running game, and a curious case of the stupids. Taking advantage of opportunities – making the moment. The Zay Flowers fumble, a triple coverage INT, and a dose of little brother syndrome (LBS). The unfortunate Playoff Lamar narrative lives on – playoff legacies define careers. The Patrick Mahomes effect, the impact of sustained excellence on recruiting talent, and the secret sauce of competing for a ring. Chris Berman goes full Fred Flinstone. Mahomes keeps stacking up playoff wins, fun factoids, and the short list of QBs that have beaten Mahomes in the playoffs. Talking about being great isn’t the same as being great. The OG Hard Knocks. Bosa on Purdy. Paper champions, regular season teams that under-deliver in the playoffs, and the Eagles Dream Team rewind.

Segment 2 (1.20.23): NFL roundup. Salud o’clock! Shannon’s birthday shenanigans, Tobb is born, and Rusty Taco antics. Random Chiefs – 49ers QB fun factoids, a random Steve DeBerg fantasy throwback, diabolical Fantasy Football QB blocks, and the Free Joe Webb incident. A Super Bowl rubber match and a rewind to the Chief’s comeback. 49ers – Lions. A comeback, a collapse, and capitalizing on opportunities. Run CMC goes beast mode. A Jerry Rice tangent plus Julian Edelman takes Rice’s daughter to the prom. The Aussie Deck commercial. Chase Young’s ghost mode. The 17 point dilemma, Dan Campbell’s aggressiveness, and analytics in question. Brandon Aiyuk’s ladybug, the facemask catch, and crazy catches. The MNF Favre – Antonio Freeman improbable catch throwback. Shaking it off with Traylor Swelce. The high cost of situational mismanagement. Initial Super Bowl matchup reaction. Wrap up. Ravens Twitter full BHA mode. 02-01-2024, MP3 format.
