Robert Horry and the crew kick off Shoot Around episode 124 with jokes and impressions before jumping into a pop quiz: the only NBA player to win a scoring title, rebounding title, blocks title, Rookie of the Year, MVP, Defensive Player of the Year, an NBA championship, and an Olympic gold medal—revealed to be David Robinson. The conversation shifts to Spurs talk, with Horry pushing back on claims that he hates San Antonio, explaining his take on why he doesn’t have Wemby as his MVP and naming his MVP as “Brown,” while still praising the Spurs, Pop, and the 2005 championship team.
They discuss the Chicago Bears potentially moving about 25 miles south to Hammond, Indiana, while likely keeping the “Chicago Bears” name, comparing it to New York teams playing in New Jersey and noting Indiana’s willingness to fund a new stadium. The group also talks about which franchises should never move, highlighting the St. Louis Cardinals and San Diego Padres, and briefly noting the Braves’ move within the Atlanta area. In NBA rules talk, they react to Paul Pierce’s idea of an LED three-point line that turns on and off during games, calling it too gimmicky and better suited to celebrity or All-Star-style events.
The episode also covers UFL rule changes, including a four-point field goal for kicks over 60 yards and banning punts once a team crosses midfield, with the hosts debating whether the NFL might adopt similar ideas and joking about how it would affect Super Bowl squares. Off the court, they break down MLB Players Association executive director Tony Clark resigning after an internal investigation revealed an improper relationship with his sister-in-law, and they react to Mad Dog Russo’s defense while debating how personal life should intersect with employment consequences. They wrap with viral oddities and childhood stories: a 92-year-old woman with Alzheimer’s climbing a seven-foot nursing home gate in 24 seconds, a 12-year-old in North Carolina driving himself to school with a fictitious plate after missing the bus, and the hosts sharing the dumbest things they did as kids—stealing church money for cookies, kicking a hole through a bedroom door, and a messy food fight that led to “double dip” punishments.
