  • Bills Fans Can't Even See at Highmark?! (Plus a Helmet Snake, Arcade Shenanigans, and Old Guinness)

    The Bills spent $2.1 billion on a brand-new stadium, and the internet is roasting Buffalo because some of the seats apparently come with an obstructed view.

    Then things get progressively weirder.

    Adam Vinatieri turned his Hall of Fame speech into a roast session, including a story about Bill Belichick’s nipple rings. Stedman Bailey got himself into some arcade-bar trouble, which leads us down a nostalgia rabbit hole about old school arcades.

    Then there’s a two-foot-long snake hiding in an Arkansas high school football player’s helmet, a Tulsa Little League team getting disqualified under some very shady circumstances, and a St. Louis golfer who apparently lied about a hole-in-one.

    We also get into Enes Kanter’s latest WNBA grift, why people who claim to miss 90s NBA basketball should probably be watching the WNBA, a 162-year-old bottle of Guinness recovered from a shipwreck, and what the lack of ABS at the Field of Dreams game could mean for the return of CB Bucknor.

    Plus: another ScottSki45 Stat of the Week controversy, an important investigation into whether people actually like Tootsie Rolls, and our beer recaps.

    Basically, this was a show.

  • Was the Skubal Trade an MLB PsyOp? (Plus the Weirdest Week in Sports)

    Welcome to Craft Brewed Sports, Probably, where sports are just the beginning.

    This week we’re asking whether the Dodgers’ blockbuster trade for Tarik Skubal was exactly what MLB needed to push fans toward a salary cap, or if the whole thing feels like an elaborate psyop.

    Then, as usual, the show goes completely off the rails.

    This week’s rabbit holes include:

    - Is there a fourth member of the Mount Rushmore of the most hated sports teams?

    - Why were the lyrics to Summer Girls so unhinged?

    - Greg pitches the ultimate stadium experience.

    - Harrison Bader earns a spot in the Baseball Injury Hall of Fame.

    - Taylor Trammell’s all-time embarrassing home run trot.

    - The greatest fantasy football punishment we’ve ever seen.

    - Do sports broadcasts even need announcers anymore?

    - The University of Akron letting a fan call the first offensive series.

    - Amtrak’s incredibly thirsty attempt to recruit LeBron.

    - Tour de France’s newest cheating controversy.

    - A spoiler-free discussion about the newest Spider-Man.

    If you like sports, pop culture, and conversations that take the scenic route, you’re in the right place.

  • The Bills Are Trying to Ruin Tailgating?! | LeBron to Philly | MLB Lockout Panic

    The Bills are somehow managing to make Bills Mafia both proud and furious at the same time. Their new stadium features an incredible folding table tribute to the fanbase...but the new tailgating rules and alternate uniforms have fans wondering what they're thinking.
    This week in the Speakeasy, we break down Buffalo's identity crisis, Nick Bosa returning to X after four years just to troll Ryan Clark, Kyle Shanahan's scary car accident, and why Chris Foerster is suddenly back in charge of the 49ers.
    We also discuss CBS hiring Brian Kelly, whether Stanford football players successfully unionizing would change college sports forever, Aaron Donald's rumored comeback, MLB owners warning that baseball could lose the entire 2027 season, and LeBron James heading to Philadelphia.

  • A Messi Haters' Dream Weekend | SEC Leaving the NCAA?! | LeBron Holding Up the NBA

    Messi haters had themselves a weekend.


    We break down the FIFA World Cup Final, Kylian Mbappé stealing the Golden Boot from Lionel Messi in the third-place match, whether a $150,000 World Cup championship ring is worth it, and why Argentina continues to be one of the most polarizing teams in soccer. We also react to the chaotic halftime show, Shakira once again delivering a World Cup anthem, and Trump's headline-stealing trophy presentation.


    Then it's on to Fanatics Fest, where the Giants somehow managed to embarrass themselves twice, Tom Brady's awkward "beef" with Logan Paul, and whether Greg Sankey is serious about the SEC breaking away from the NCAA.


    We also discuss Caleb Miller's NSFW lip reading after an umpire interfered with a play, whether anyone will ever reach 3,000 hits again after Nolan Arenado reached 2,000, Adam Silver admitting the NBA schedule is waiting on LeBron James, where LeBron could end up next season, the WNBA blocking Sophie Cunningham from profiting off her viral pointing meme, and a Minnesota brewery's ranch dressing-flavored beer.


    Plus, beer reviews, golf outing shenanigans, and plenty of the random tangents you've come to expect from Craft Brewed Sports.

  • Home Run Derby Controversy | What Is LSU Up To? | FIFA Wants 64 Teams?!

    The Home Run Derby gave us plenty to talk about this year. Netflix took its first swing at broadcasting the event, Jordan Walker's winning home run sparked controversy over the missing magenta ball, and Bryce Harper thinks it's time to bring aluminum bats to the Derby.


    We also dive into Harper's unexpected dispute with FanDuel after a personalized Cameo video was allegedly used to market to a chronic gambler, plus the wild story of a former Las Vegas Little League president accused of spending league funds on strip clubs, gambling, PlayStation games, and even ED medication.


    On the soccer side, FIFA is already talking about expanding the World Cup to 64 teams, we react to the possibility of an all-heavyweight World Cup Final, and break down the pettiest player release announcement you'll ever see from a Brazilian club.


    We also discuss:
    - Is Louisiana cooking up a pyramid scheme for LSU's NIL funding?
    - Why Washington athletics expects to lose $16 million.
    - Paul Skenes getting called a future Yankee.
    - Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro's Summer League altercation.
    - The Hurricanes owner putting his entire family on the Stanley Cup.
    - Sip, Chug, Drainpour featuring baseball's best plays and the worst ways to get taken out by an aluminum bat.

  • USMNT Crash Out of World Cup | Stephen A Smith vs. Lakers' White Big 3 | Marlins Ruin a Perfect Game

    The USMNT’s World Cup run is over after getting run off the field by Belgium, and we’re asking the hard question: are they just…mid? We break down another disappointing exit, whether the Balogun suspension drama had any impact, and laugh at FOX’s desperate attempts to convince America to keep watching the tournament.


    Then it’s on to the NBA, where Stephen A. Smith sparked another firestorm by ripping the Lakers’ new “White Big 3” of Luka Dončić, Austin Reaves, and Walker Kessler. We also debate the NBA’s experimental one-free-throw rule, discuss the latest LeBron-to-Cleveland rumors, and wonder if Tim Hardaway made the right call by refusing to let his son wear his retired No. 10.


    Baseball gave us another analytics vs. history debate after the Marlins pulled Eury Pérez in the middle of a perfect game. Should MLB make it illegal to remove a pitcher chasing history? We also talk about MLB’s labor propaganda ahead of a potential strike, ScottSki45’s Stat of the Week, Joey Chestnut’s 18th Mustard Belt, Conor McGregor’s latest comeback, PlayStation going all-digital, fantasy football guys, free nights and weekends, David the Gnome, and somehow Brett Hart catches a stray along the way.

  • LeBron to the Warriors?! | Ranking World Cup Fanbases | Phil Mickelson’s Creepy Pick-up Move

    The NBA rumor mill is officially in overdrive. We break down reports that LeBron James has told the Lakers they can move on after securing Bronny’s guaranteed contract, plus the wild possibility of LeBron, Anthony Davis, Steph Curry, and Draymond Green joining forces in Golden State. We also discuss Kawhi Leonard’s rumored return to Toronto and ask the important question: what’s the funniest possible destination for LeBron?


    Then we shift to the World Cup, where Germany’s penalty shootout collapse, Uruguay’s charter flight cancellation, and an electric Round of 32 gave us plenty to talk about. We also debate whether American soccer fans should stop trying to recreate European atmospheres and instead embrace what makes U.S. sports culture unique.


    We also rank the best World Cup fanbases, from Japan’s stadium-cleaning supporters to Scotland’s Tartan Army, Norway’s Viking celebrations, Mexico’s relentless fans, and DR Congo’s unforgettable Lumumba statue supporter.


    Plus:


    * Carlos Mendoza gets fired… while Mr. Met keeps dancing.
    * Kirk Herbstreit unloads on the Cincinnati Reds.
    * Can you still call yourself a good fan if you stop watching when your team stinks?
    * The unbelievable Terrion Arnold story.
    * Phil Mickelson’s resurfaced creepy pickup story.
    * Mexican Batman becomes our newest hero.
