Illegal Formation

I don't know about you, but I am complete excited for tomorrow!  But before we lose our minds over Star Wars, we've got football to watch and talk about!   The Giants and Jets,both have the opportunity to make it into the playoffs.  Sadly, the road ahead for the Jets is much more difficult than the Giants and at a record of 11-5, at best, could not make the playoffs.  The Giants could limp into the playoffs at 7-9 and this is all an absolute travesty! Let's hope for the best for our boys.    Anyway,   We recap what happened week 14 and how we were not impressed with the product on the field and what we expect for week 15. 

In this episode, Chris is Happy, John is sad, everything else is battletoads(or frogs).   Also we talk about every college bowl. Yes, all of them.

Hey Gang,   December is here so we are closing in on Conference Championships in College Football and the last quarter of the Football season so it feels bittersweet. Football season just flies by!  Anyway, we cover some of the possibilities of who can get into the College Football Playoff and dive into Week 13 of the NFL season, but not necessarily in that order.   We cover briefly some of the exciting developments in basketball with the emergence for  KP! We love Kristaps! and We say goodbye to Kobe.  Come Join us on this amazing episode!

Chris is super happy about Sparty! He's super not happy about Jetty! John is totally indifferent about all of it....ty! They can't all be winner folks. Featuring the most we've ever talked about college football in a single episode probably ever.

  We're joined by Steve Silver from the Illegal Blitz to talk about the recent ban by New York State of One Day Fantasy betting. Then we make our Week 11 Picks, and talk a bit about College Football. Sorry other sports, this is about Football!

Meow, we are well under way in November and halfway through the football season, beginning to see the pretenders and the contenders.  Seeing some bright positive future potential and seeing some legends show their mortality.     We cover the optimist and pessimist view of the teams that played week 9 and make our picks from week 10.  We talk about some of the interesting College Football Games of the Week.    Also, Chris cries over the Michigan State loss.  The second consecutive week of disappointing losses for him and he is trying to cope.  Let's hope for the best for him.

The Mets, as usual, have greatly disappointed Chris. It is a sore topic. Don't talk to him about it.  He can be seen quoting Ricky Bobby ("If you're not first, you're last!") and occasional sobs in the corner.  He seems to be getting better now.     Back to Football.  It's week 9, so we have made it to the halfway point in the season.  We talk the lines for the games of the week and finish up with a recap of the top 4 in the College Football Playoff rankings and the meaningful games this week.   I would say there are 3 college games that are more entertaining than most of the NFL games coming up this week, except for maybe Packer Panthers.     Please help us update our logo! We could really use your help!

Let's Go Mets Let's Go Mets Let's Go Mets Let's Go Mets Let's Go Mets Let's Go Mets!Ehhhh.... Ahem... Sorry guys, we interrupt our regularly scheduled programming to inform you that the Mets are in the World Series. As you all know, Chris is just a big Mets fan and John has been swept up in the Tsunami known as Fall Baseballitis. This wonderful illness is contagious for those whose team has been eliminated from the playoffs and they root for the other local team! Good Job, John!  So we sort of breeze through the Week 8 games and the college football games and do a bit of an in depth analysis of the Mets and Royals Matchup in the World Series.So, you do not like baseball or football, this podcast is not for you.

THE METS! THE SPARTANS! THE JETS! EVERYTHING IS COMING UP CHRIS!!!!   (The Giants, The Wolverines, The Yankees, Everything is sad for John)

We're officially past the quarter pole of the NFL season, so Chris and John give progress reports to every NFL team.   The boys also talk about the most important college game in the history of this podcast, make our week 6 picks, and scream loudly into the microphone.

The leaves are turning, regular season baseball has ended, and hockey begins!  Norm from Dudes On Stuff comes back to discuss NHL 2015-2016 previews and playoff predictions. We also delve into some pick for the NLDS and ALDS.  As well as address the sadness of the loss of the Yankees in the Wild Card to the Astros who will probably lose to the Royals. We come back to football with our Week 5 picks, but Chris seems out of it because his Jets are in their Bye Week, so he was on a mental Bye Week as well.  And we round out the night with our College Games of the Week and our picks.    

In this episode, Brandon Marshall is a bad quarterback, The Rams are on fire! (Literally!) and we go to London (Figuratively).   We also talk about college and Chris talks about the Mets! (John doesn't talk about the Yankees, it's a sadness.)

It's week 3 of the NFL season, that means week 2 you saw many previously though of "Good" teams go 0 - 2, and some teams come out with unexpected wins.  Is there more Parity in the NFL or is this just a sign of the times as the players still look like they are coming out of preseason?  Anyway, I had enough of a BOLD prediction and I witnessed while I was losing my voice the stellar defense of the Jets smother the Colts.  The Jets should prevail in week 3 vs. Eagles without much hesitation.  We also go over College football developments and root for excellence, like the Spartans. Chris also wants to scream every time John attempts to KOD the Mets. ROAR!

This week we talk about how being a Mets and Jets fan is the height of rapture. at least for now. We also talk about how being a Giants and Yankees fan is an endless pit of despair from which there is no escape, ever! Also we talk about how football works, which is apparently something Eli Manning forgot!

And it has finally arrived!  We talk about week 1 lines for the NFL and the first full week of College Football! I am so happy I can squeal! And if John has upset you, you can reach him @RidleyDragon on Twitter. Go get 'em!
