    Oct 29 2024

    SPICY EPISODE HERE!! What if the struggles of your favorite sports teams could be changed by a simple tweak in leadership? That is being a Chicago Bears fan. We dissect the high-stakes decision-making of head coach Matt Eberflus and the essential role of a strong team culture and why the Bears' management must make decisive action to prevent future disappointments.

    We go through a few NFL talking points but focus on Anthony Richardson. Sean is disappointed in the decision to bench him. Regardless if he took himself out of the game or now.

    MLB Postseason pressure is real, especially for the New York Yankees' Aaron Judge, and thats how we close the episode. The legacy of Yankees legends is built in October, and we compare current struggles to the triumphs of past icons like Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera.

  • CFB is Hilarious, Caleb & Bears D Shine, Coaching Malpractice, New Age MLB players
    Oct 7 2024

    College football is chaos and hilarious. We pulled some ridiculous moments from the CFB weekend and talked about the spots you can expect an upset. Caleb Williams' put on an electrifying performance that was backed up by the nasty Bears defense. Can Bears fan finally say "We got one"? We also couldn't resist poking fun at the Buffalo Bills' clock management woes and shared a laugh over Nick's unique criteria at what traits make a good head coach. Plus, we threw our support behind players like Devontae Adams standing their ground in today's challenging sports landscape but is he going about the holdout the right way? We close it with the MLB Playoffs. The games have been wild and the player vs fan banter even better. But forget about the play on the field, Sean asks Nick what accessories he'd rock if he were a pro baseball player. Big fun is this episode of NK!
