Thu, 07 Dec 2017 00:45:41 -0700

We're kind of all over the place in this episode, but after missing last week's episode we had a lot to make up for. We start off with some Pac-12 football and NFL, then get into an interesting new development going on in Seattle that might impact their NHL and/or NBA future. After that we talk about Steph's injury and how the Warriors will try to make up for his loss the next few weeks, and how underwhelming Pac-12 basketball has looked this season. And before our closing Big Board Bets and Walk Off stat of the week, we chat about Shohei Ohtani and Giancarlo Stanton and how much we all want them both to go to the Giants (Ben wrote this). Enjoy!

Wed, 22 Nov 2017 23:10:02 -0700

What did the Supersonics leaving Seattle do to those left behind? Well we ask a few of those specific people and get some very diverse answers. Today we're diving deep into the concept of teams and franchises, and what it means to be a fan of them, especially when they move. Can the Thunder retire Shawn Kemp and Gary Payton's jerseys? Should San Diegans still be Charger fans? Why is there a team in Memphis still called the Grizzlies?? These are just a few of the glorious topics our expert panel tackles.

Also, there's the usual WCB Big Board bets and Walk Off at the end. Enjoy!
