The Greg and Mark Show

The Wayne Gretzky Episode

noreply@blogger.com (Greg) — Fri, 18 Mar 2011 23:01:00 +0000

Before we wrap back around and head into the zeroes, it’s the Wayne Gretzky Episode!

We don’t talk much puck in the episode though, mostly a discussion of great players becoming coaches/general managers, followed by some bracket talk.

Our song of the week goes out not to Gretzky, but another very famous No. 99 in sports.

1998 was a big year for baseball, and 98 is a big show for the Greg and Mark Show baseball preview, as we wrap up our division previews with the NL West.

With a lack of great 96 candidates, we turn to a year once again, to honor the best regular-season win total in NBA history -- the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls, who were 72-10 en route to beating the Seattle SuperSonics in the NBA Finals.

We talk '96 Bulls, NBA All-Star weekend and trade deadline, and break down the NL East before bringing you a Seinfeld-themed song of the week.

The Buffalo Bills Die-nasty Episode

noreply@blogger.com (Greg) — Wed, 24 Nov 2010 07:54:00 +0000

We weren't thrilled with the options at 90, so we looked at 1990, the start of the almost-dynasty of the Buffalo Bills. That season, they'd advance to the Super Bowl, where they lost for the first of four consecutive trips.

We've got Doug Haller from The Arizona Republic and AZCentral.com to talk Sun Devils football and basketball, and we talk about potential 2011 quarterback options for the Cardinals.

And because we're jive turkeys and its Thanksgiving, we've got a Turkey Day Song of the Week.

An Update on the Greg and Mark Show

noreply@blogger.com (Greg) — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 06:44:00 +0000

Hang in there! We're almost back. Here's a quick glimpse at the status of the Greg and Mark Show:

Apologies to the greater, Hall of Fame-caliber receivers who wore 82 (but were never in Tecmo Bowl), it's the John Taylor Episode.

The Tim Brown Episode

noreply@blogger.com (Greg) — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 16:33:00 +0000

It's the Tim Brown Episode!

We eschew the other worthy No. 81 wide receivers for the best one of the Tecmo Bowl Generation. There's a little NBA Draft talk -- how did Minnesota screw up this time? -- and a whole lot of bat & ball talk as the trade deadline approaches. Who's going where and when, and who shot who in the what now?

Our song of the week goes out to one of the show's dedicated listeners, and the person that we demand be the show's newest, smallest dedicated listener.

The Jerry Rice Episode

noreply@blogger.com (Greg) — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 06:45:00 +0000

It's the Jerry Rice Episode!

A Hall of Fame receiver from a loaded show. We've got a Finals Game 7 in the NBA, a new GM for the Suns, ASU heading to the College World Series and a trade for the D-backs.

One of these stories inspired our song of the week here on the Greg and Mark Show.
