May 14, 2025Bruins Boned - Edelman HOF; Amish Emus, and Chick Strip Grips
🧊 Bruins Boned
Bruins had a 5th-best chance… ended up picking 7th.
Missed 2nd overall by one ping pong ball.
Not all doom and gloom: Top 2 talent-heavy, but next 10 are evenly matched.
Bruins need a center... so of course, they’ll probably end up with a slow-footed defenseman.
Don Sweeney looked like he had a stroke during post-lottery media time.
🏈 Edelman Hall of Fame
Julian Edelman edges out Adam Vinatieri and Logan Mankins for the Hall.
Rich goes nuclear on kicker fans:
“You crybaby kicker cunts need to shut up.”
Edelman = #1 WR for the GOAT + legendary playoff/Super Bowl moments.
Vinatieri had 3 clutch kicks... then spent the bulk of his career in Indy. Pipe down.

May 12, 2025Who's In Charge?
The boys are back and tryin’ to figure out who the hell is runnin’ the Red Sox—because it sure looks like it’s a bunch of unchaperoned toddlers in charge. At 19-19, the Sox are somehow in striking distance of the Yankees, but leadership, discipline, and even basic fielding have gone AWOL. Giolito's ERA is higher than a kite, the bullpen’s blowin’ games like it’s their job, and Raffy still refuses to play first base. We break it all down, call for a purge, and maybe even demand a little Vrabel-style reckoning.
Then it’s time for "10 Questions From a Guy Named Rob"—and no topic is safe:
Was Reddick really takin' a shot at Luka?
Are the Cavs fake or the Pacers real?
What’s Popovich’s legacy?
Why is ESPN pushin’ the WNBA like it’s 1996?
And yes, someone finally asks: What percentage of massages end in handys?
This episode’s got takes hotter than Giolito’s ERA. Let’s ride.
📝 Show Notes:
Segment 1: Who’s in Charge of the Red Sox?
Record: 19-19, only 2.5 games back of the Yankees.
Team looks leaderless—nobody can even tell Devers to pick up a first baseman’s mitt.
Pitching staff falling apart:
Giolito: 8.38 ERA
Slaten: 6.57 ERA
Houck: 6.10 ERA
15th worst team ERA, 23rd worst batting average against, and 18th most home runs allowed.
The Red Sox lead MLB in blown saves (8) and errors (18).
Despite ranking in the top 10 in most offensive categories, the team lacks professionalism, discipline, and direction.
Segment 2: 10 Questions From a Guy Named Rob
Was J.J. Reddick’s “championship shape” comment a veiled jab at Luka or just him ducking his own coaching heat?
When did the NHL start a draft lottery—and should they even have one?
Are the Cavs frauds, or are the Pacers actually legit?
Ravens cut Justin Tucker… but what % of massages end in handys? (Yes, seriously.)
Is Gregg Popovich actually overrated?
ESPN pushes WNBA over NBA, NHL, and MLB on their homepage—agenda or algorithm?
What’s Jerod Mayo up to right now?
What would you wear to the Met Gala?
Could Shedeur Sanders make the Browns’ opening day roster?
What’s this Utah Hockey Club/Mammoth thing—and when the hell did that happen?

May 09, 2025The Celtics are Front Running P*ssies
The Celtics are finding new and exciting ways to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, and the Simple Minds are here to yell about it. Dr. Big Mac, Rich, and Chief Bobby dive into Boston’s historic back-to-back choke jobs against the Knicks, question the sanity of the coaching staff, and try to make sense of Tatum’s disappearing act. Also, Headlines with the Obvious One returns to bring you the news you already knew — but louder.
📝 Show Notes:
🟢 Segment 1: Celtics Choke
Game 1: Celtics 105 – Knicks 108
Blew a 20-point lead
Launched 60 threes… missed 45 (🎯 NBA record for futility)
Tatum led the team in settling
Jaylen Brown: “We need to get to the rim”… then didn’t shoot
Porzingis reportedly soiled himself (figuratively… we think)
Coach Mazzulla still thinks it’s working
Game 2: Celtics 90 – Knicks 91
Another 20-point blown lead. Yes, again. Also an NBA record
Shot 25% from deep (30 misses on 40 attempts)
Only 17 assists, 16 turnovers
Won most categories—then shot themselves in the foot… repeatedly
Tatum: 13 points, again no final shot
Team stuck in 2022 mode
Coaching Crisis:
No adjustments, no sub strategy, no play-calling. No pulse.
Is this really the last ride for this group?
Are the Celtics dumb enough to think blowing two 20-point leads means they’re playing well?
🟠 Segment 2: Headlines with the Obvious One
The most obvious news, made obvious-er by the Obvious One.
You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll say “yeah no duh.”

May 02, 2025 Totem Poles, Tatum Fire, and Belichick’s Breakdown
The fellas are back and hotter than a $2 pistol! On this episode of the Simple Minds Sports Show, Chief Bobby takes us Up and Down the Totem Pole, giving props to the Cavs' historic beatdown and roasting the Browns’ draft-day dumpster fire. From Abdul Carter's jersey drama to the Rockies playing like a high school JV team, ain't nobody safe!

Then, it’s Celtics time. The Green send the Magic straight back to Disney World with a beatdown for the ages. Tatum channels his inner Bird, Brown still looks iffy, and Coach Mazzula finally stops chuckin' threes like it's a YMCA open gym. We break down the stats, the vibes, and the soft whining of Jamahl Mosely.

To wrap it up, the boys take a trip around the NBA playoffs: Giannis chokes again, the Knicks are sad, Warriors hang on by a thread, and Belichick… Lord help him, someone get that man a conservatorship.

📋 Show Notes:
⬆️⬇️ Up and Down the Totem Pole with Chief Bobby
⬆️ Cavs – 4-0 sweep of the Heat, 122-point series margin record. Yowza.
⬇️ Browns – Classic Browns. Passed on elite talent, drafted Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders late. Woof times two.
⬇️ Abdul Carter – Rookie arrogance at full blast. Wants a retired NFL legend’s number. Chief says: “This guy’s an asshole.”
⬇️ Rockies – 4 total wins. Could lose to a damn Pop Warner team.
⬆️ Juvenile Behavior – Prank draft calls? Now that’s the spirit.
⬇️ Bill Belichick – It’s gone from awkward to downright sad. Elder abuse incoming.
🏀 Celtics Send the Magic Home
Final: Celtics 120 – Magic 89
Series win: Celtics 4-1
Tatum: 35 pts / 8 reb / 10 ast
Third straight 30-point playoff game — Only Larry Legend has done that.
Brown: 23 pts / 6 reb / 3 ast – Something’s off...
Magic:
Banchero: 19-9-6 but fouled out early.
Wagner: 25-4-4 – But not enough.
Key Takeaways:

Magic = Hacks. Jamahl Mosely won the whine contest.
Tatum's awake – Can he stay that way?
Mazzula finally adjusted:
Only 24 3PTAs in Game 5.
Celtics dominated the paint and hit 21/24 FTs.
Tatum: 3 straight games perfect from the line.
Problem with the refs? Eh, maybe. But Magic were outclassed.
🏀 NBA Playoffs Roundup
Bucks Collapse – Blow 10-point lead, Haliburton dagger.
Giannis: “Simple Minds” material confirmed.
Knicks Implode – Sad trombone.
Warriors Still Kickin’ – Old but stubborn.
Heat Embarrassed – Cavs ended them fast.
Lakers Eliminated – JJ hates subs, Lakers hate winning.
Got takes hotter than Tatum’s jumper? Hit that follow button and yell at us on socials @SimpleMindsSports!

May 02, 2025Dong Peeks & Horse Dives – This or That; Simplest Minds of the Week
Grab your helmet and hang on to your britches, ‘cause this episode of the Simple Minds Sports Show is more chaotic than a possum in a moonshine distillery. Chief Bobby kicks things off with another dangerously stupid round of This or That—featuring choices no sane man should ever have to make. Would you rather start beef with a biker gang or... well, you'll just have to listen.
Then it’s time for the Simplest Minds of the Week, where we salute some world-class dumbasses—from Jokic's horse-head heist to some twins Down Under that made us question evolution. Oh, and we also witnessed a horse dive off a platform like it’s trying out for SeaWorld.
If you like your sports talk like your meatloaf—unfiltered, undercooked, and slightly offensive—this episode is for you. Let’s get dumb.
📝 Show Notes:
🧠 THIS OR THAT WITH CHIEF BOBBY
Chief Bobby asks the questions no one should have to answer:
Fresh tomatoes 🍅 or fresh bread 🍞
Never wash your hands again 🙌 or never wash your hair again 💇‍♂️
Peek at a dong at the urinal 🍆 or creep on a mystery pooper in the stall 🚽
Pizza cut party-style (squares) 🍕 or good ol' fashioned slices 🔪
Start beef with a biker gang 🏍️ or ram your hog into your boss’s wife 🐷💥
Get picked up for work by a school bus 🚌 or need a chaperone on all evening outings 🕵️‍♂️
Ice cream solo 🍨 or with sprinkles 🌈
Sandwich with the meat as the “bread” 🥪 or condiments lathered on the outside 🤢
💩 SIMPLEST MINDS OF THE WEEK
The Dumbass Hall of Fame inductees for this week:
Face Off – The fellas debate the dumbest of the dumb.
Jokic Horse Head – See for yourself
Horse Diving Clip – Yes, it's a real thing. Watch here
Aussie Twins – Straight outta Darwin
Got a stupid question or a dumber video? Send it in—we'll roast it on air.

May 02, 2025The Greatest Draft in the History of the World
The fellas are back and dumber than ever — but for once, it looks like the Patriots aren’t. Dr. Big Mac, Rich, and Chief Bobby break down what may just be the smartest draft class in New England Patriots history, led by new leadership and one giant barn door of a man, OT Will Campbell. From the smart picks (yes, even the kicker) to a few head-scratchers (a running back in Round 2?!), the crew dives deep into the Pats' 2025 NFL Draft.
Then it’s time to hand the mic to our Southern-fried savant for HEADLINES WITH THE OBVIOUS ONE, where we try to decipher the week in Boston sports through the ramblings of a man who thinks logic is a type of barbecue sauce.
Whether you're a diehard Patriots fan or just here for the unhinged ramblings of The Obvious One, this episode's got enough hot takes and heartburn to make Bill Belichick break a smile. Maybe.
📝 Show Notes:

Anthony Edwards, who’s out here racking up millions and baby mamas faster than he racks up fines.
Shaq… and the shitty situation he couldn’t outrun. 💩

April 25, 2025Celtics Dominate Without Tatum, Bruins Spin the Exit Wheel & Rob Asks 10 Ridiculous Questions
The Celtics take a commanding 2-0 series lead without Jayson Tatum, but injury concerns linger after a gritty Game 2 win. Dr. Big Mac, Rich, and Chief Bobby break down the win, Jaylen Brown’s takeover performance, and the physicality brought on by a hack-happy Magic squad.
Then, it’s 10 rapid-fire, bizarre, and somehow thought-provoking questions from a guy named Rob — covering everything from Cade Cunningham to whether boats are just floating sex dungeons (yes, really).
Finally, we head to the ice where the Bruins try to explain away another disappointing season. Exit interviews, front office smoke screens, bad drafting flashbacks, and why Bruins fans are paying more and getting less. It’s a fiery finish you won’t want to miss.
Show Segments & Notes:🏀 Celtics Go Up 2-0 (Without Tatum)
Final Score: Celtics 109 – Magic 100
Jaylen Brown: 36 pts, 10 reb, 5 ast – Absolute monster game
Porzingis: 20 pts, 10 reb, 5 stitches (yes, real blood – PLAY CLIP: Mazzulla loves blood)
Derrick White: 17 pts, 6 reb, 5 ast
Pritchard: 14 pts off the bench
Magic Highlights:
Banchero: 32 pts, 9 reb, 7 ast
Wagner: 25 pts, 4 reb, 4 ast
Team Stats:
3PT%: Celtics 32.4% | Magic 24%
FTs: Celtics 25/33 | Magic 15/24
Rebounds: Celtics 46 | Magic 34
Celtics brought physicality. Magic were reckless. Caldwell-Pope’s cheap shot on Horford was dirty.
Jaylen went into 1-on-1 beast mode… but that’s not how you win a title. You need Tatum.
🤕 Tatum Injury Concerns
Bruised wrist (not ideal when it’s your shooting wrist)
Ended 145-game playoff streak
Was this a “play it safe” decision or something more?
Should he rest again if they’re up 2-0?
PLAY CLIP: Mazzulla on Tatum injury
❓10 Questions from a Guy Named Rob
How good is Cade Cunningham, really?
Are great RBs a necessity or a luxury?
What are the 3 best teams to get drafted by in the NFL?
And the 3 worst?
Could the 3 of us beat 1 NBA player in a 1-on-3?
Will Payton Pritchard be on the Celtics next year?
Will Shedeur Sanders succeed in the right situation?
Should wrestling be on ESPN?
Are boats just glorified floating sex dungeons?
Is the NFL Draft traveling to cities cool or meh?
🏒 Bruins Exit Interviews
Bruins finish 33-39, worst in the Atlantic
Front office clown show: Charlie Jacobs, Cam Neely, Don Sweeney
PLAY CLIP: Sweeney on Coaching – scapegoating much?
PLAY CLIP: Jacobs on “standards” – or just playoff revenue?
PLAY CLIP: Ticket Prices – average ticket now $174.56… Thanks Obama
Bruins worth $2.7B – they paid $10M. 2024: $268M revenue, $69M profit.
Draft failures go back to 2015 – still haunting this team
58 draft picks from 2015–2024 → only 11 NHL players
Highlights: McAvoy, Swayman, Carlo… and a lot of whiffs
The smoke shield is up. Panic mode ON. Expect Bruins to be aggressive in free agency & trades this offseason.

April 25, 2025It's a Bad year to Blow. The Patriots NFL Draft Worst Case Scenario
The boys are back with another unfiltered, unhinged, and undeniably Boston take on all things NFL Draft and beyond. Dr. Big Mac, Rich, and Chief Bobby dive headfirst into Patriots Draft Watch, debate whether Campbell at 4 is a reach or a revelation, and unpack trade rumors hotter than your aunt’s buffalo chicken dip.
Then it’s time for Headlines with The OBVIOUS ONE — coming to you live from a couch that may be eligible for disability. Celtics, Sox, and Bruins all get the roast they deserve, plus Big Mac drops a Deep Thought that'll have you wondering if he’s talking about sports or his last failed Tinder date.
This one’s got everything: bad takes, worse jokes, and just enough real analysis to make your dad say, “These guys kinda know what they’re talkin’ about.” Let’s get weird.
🏈 NFL Draft Watch
Patriots open for trade at #4 — not sold on Campbell?
PLAY CLIP: “Elliot Wolf is a rat”
Chargers embarrassed us last year in the Ladd McConkey deal. Don’t let history repeat itself.
Campbell is solid even if he shifts to guard. Double down on O-line? Let’s build the wall.
Ideal line: Campbell, pick #38, Bradbury, Onwenu, Moses
Stay AWAY from Membou. Attitude stinks.
OL Prospects to Consider:
Josh Simmons (OSU), Josh Conerly (OR), Aireontae Ersery (MN)
💸 Free Agency & Trade Buzz
Tyler Lockett to Titans: 1 yr / $4–6M — get another vet WR now!
Targets: Amari Cooper? Keenan Allen?
Patriots still need a free safety — Justin Simmons is out there. Call him!
Trade Rumors Heating Up:
Jeanty interest is real.
Teams to watch: Jags, Raiders, Bears, Broncos
Breer says if someone trades up, it’s for Jeanty. Not QB. Not Hunter. Not Carter.
📰 HEADLINES WITH THE OBVIOUS ONE
Live from the pre-diabetic couch of wisdom, it's time for Boston sports the way only we can do it:
🏀 Celtics Win Game 2
Jaylen Brown drops 36 while OBVIOUS ONE drops tots down his cleavage.
Tatum out with a sore wrist — like most of OBVIOUS ONE’s high school experience.
Also: He congratulated himself for inventing math. (Spoiler: he didn’t.)
⚾️ Red Sox Lose Again
New green uniforms, same stink.
OBVIOUS ONE watched the whole game while eating a floor-calzone and yelling about Megan Rapinoe.
Bonus: accidentally subscribed to Donna on OnlyFans, who steps on pies. Worth it?
🏒 Bruins Out
Lindholm and McAvoy are toast.
OBVIOUS ONE tried to learn hockey strategy but got distracted by the Zamboni. Thought it was a Transformer. Tried to talk to it.
💭 BIG MAC’S DEEP THOUGHT OF THE WEEK:“Boston sports are like me during sex — slow start, brief hope, and then an unexpected nap. Sometimes there is crying.”
🔔 Don’t miss next week:
Dr. Big Mac deep-throats a cannoli while explaining the NFL Draft and draws playoff brackets using macaroni art and soft farts. Only on the Simple Minds Sports Show.
Stay thick, Boston.

April 21, 2025Drinking out of cups and Real life Super Troopers; This or That and Simplest Minds of the Week
Description:
This week on the Simple Minds Sports Show, Chief Bobby takes us down the rabbit hole in a chaotic edition of This or That—think midgets, cinnamon buns, and fireplace romance. We also crown the Simplest Minds of the Week, featuring an NBA meltdown, a power-tripping police chief, and a Chuck E. Cheese brawl for the ages. Sports, nonsense, and a little philosophy sprinkled in—just another day with your favorite degenerates.
🧠 Segments & Show Notes:🔥 THIS OR THAT WITH CHIEF BOBBY
Chief Bobby’s brain hits another level of weird with this week’s hard-hitting matchups:
Coffee Cake 🆚 Cinnamon Buns
Drink from your cupped hands only 🆚 Eat off the table like an animal
Easter Brunch 🆚 Easter Dinner
Be 5'5" and live longer 🆚 Die with dignity, short king
Jury Duty 🆚 Volunteer at a homeless shelter
Fight 3 midgets with wiffle ball bats 🆚 Make love to 2 midgets by the fire
Bon Jovi 🆚 Steven Tyler
Dumbass boss who doesn’t make you work 🆚 Smart boss who works you to the bone
Card Games 🆚 Board Games
Morning Exercise 🆚 Nighttime Physics Study
🧠 SIMPLEST MINDS OF THE WEEK
Bradley Beal Disrespected
Suns are a disaster at 36-46. Budenholzer wants Beal to be Jrue Holiday, and the $130 million trio of Durant, Beal, and Booker just ain’t it. Durant? Officially OUT.
NJ Police Chief Meltdown
👉 Watch the Clip
Power trip of the century. This dude needs a juice box and a nap.
Chuck E. Cheese Brawl
Classic parenting. Chaos breaks out and we’ve got exclusive commentary on this modern American gladiator arena.
🎥 PLAY CLIP – Chuck E. Cheese brawl
