The guys come off of their bye week and shake off the rust. Ryan takes his annual trip down the hypeville express for the Falcons and Lionel's pessimism doesn't allow him to believe anything good will ever happen to Atlanta teams. The guys review the games that have been played in the first round of the NBA playoffs and look ahead to the potentially exciting match ups ahead. 

The guys take it easy this week as they get ready for their bye-week next week. They discuss what they've seen from the NBA's return to action and everything inside the bubble, the MLB and how they've handled their lack of bubble-ness, and as always things get a little weird.

Fish and Grits welcome a very special guest this episode. Brett Kollmann, formerly of the NFL Network, a SB Nation contributing writer, and the host of his very own, very successful YouTube show The Film Room drops some knowledge on the guys and gives his thoughts on the current state of the Falcons, big moves in the NFL, and discusses the pains of being a Texans fan in the Bill O'Brien era. 

The guys return to full strength and recap the five stripes first game in the MLS is Back Tournament, the Braves inter-squad scrimmage, and the NBA's arrival at Disney World's Wide World of Sports.

The guys play hurt today but are able to call in a pinch runner to help out. They dive into topics surrounding the recent violence in Georgia, the MLS' return to action, and how COVID might forever change the Braves. 

The guys discuss a major signing by the evil empire, the slap on the wrist they receive for major infractions, and then bring in a guest to give some perspective on how the Falcons opponents view the team.

The guys discuss the upcoming seasons for the NBA and MLS while pondering if the MLB is self sabotaging, or are they really that dumb?

The guys talk about the agreed upon deals by the major sport leagues, talk about why the MLB continues to set itself on fire, and name the loser of the week for this episode. Then Micah lays down the law when it comes to quarterback pay and we pay homage to one of the greatest NASCAR drivers there has ever been.
