The JAYREELZ Podcast

Closing out the first month of the year with plenty to digest and dissect on all that took place in sports, so get your earbuds, headphones or speakers ready as I share all of my thoughts, opinions and analysis. On deck: (3:15) We have a Super Bowl LVIII matchup set in two weeks at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. One that we're very familiar with. Kansas City showed their grit and championship DNA in winning another huge road game, 17-10 over the Baltimore Ravens. What went wrong for the #1 seeded Ravens? Is this all on the QB Lamar Jackson? What about the head coach John Harbaugh? Oh, there is much to unpack here as the Chiefs go back to the Super Bowl for the fourth time in five years to defend their title from last year. As for the nightcap, all of Michigan must be sick because the Lions weren't able to seal the deal vs. the 49ers. What was the head coach, Dan Campbell, thinking on going for it not once, but TWICE, instead of kicking a field goal? Another Niner comeback propels them in a rematch of Super Bowl LIV in Miami where the Chiefs and 49ers will go at it in less than two weeks. I'll unpack every fiber of what took place yesterday, take a peek at some coaching hires as we're just one game away from the 2023 NFL season concluding. (35:38) Luka Doncic put up 73 points on Friday night vs. Atlanta, days after Joel Embiid scored 70 points in his own right. Will we see a player eclipse what Luka did? Could someone score 80? Surpass Kobe Bryant's 81, 18 years ago? You have a big regular season game tonight out West when the top two teams in the conference face off in OKC where the Timberwolves face the Thunder. There are two reunions on Wednesday with Kevin Durant going back to Brooklyn for the first time since the trade last year and Damian Lillard's return to Portland where he spent all of his career before being dealt to Milwaukee last summer. (51:47) Not much happening in MLB. Do I get crazy about the Tigers signing one of their prospects to a 28.5 million dollar deal (INF Colt Keith) when we saw this earlier in the offseason with the Milwaukee Brewers? (52:29) The first Grand Slam tournament in tennis has completed. Jannik Sinner had an Australian Open to remember. He not only beat Novak Djokovic in the semifinals, but came back down two sets to love in the final vs. Daniil Medvedev to win his first men's title 3-6, 3-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-3. On the women's side, Aryna Sabalenka was victorious winning back to back titles (NOTE: I made the correction at the very end of the podcast. I stated that this was her first Aussie Open win. She's now won consecutive AO tournaments) to complete a very intriguing tournament overall, with the French up next in the spring.
