Men Who Stare At Sports

S/o to John for the intro music !!

Long time no pod men!!!!   The crew returns for an epic recap of the sports that occurred during the last month (or so).

The crew gets together to discuss the last days of the NBA regular season, how the NBA play-in games actually work, who we feel is going to be the biggest factors in the playoffs, NFL updates on how draft picks are doing during their first few weeks of training camp, Chicago MLB updates, UFC 262 main card, Chandler v Olivera, the first UFC lightweight champion since Khabib retired, Tony Ferguson, the UFC lightweight division as a whole and where we see the sport headed next.

The crew welcome's our first guest to the podcast -  Noah Griffin. During this episode we talk about the 2021 NFL Draft, where the NBA stands in the weeks leading up to playoffs, the Chicago White Sox and Cubs, Andy Ruiz reclaiming the heavyweight title in Boxing, the spinning knockout we saw at the UFC event on May 1st as well as Trans Athletes and Caitlyn Jenner's recent comments.

The crew sat down on the night ofApril 28th to discuss the wildly entertaining UFC 261 main card, the Jake Paul v Ben Askren "fight", the upcoming Logan Paul v Floyd Mayweather fight, the boxing world vs the mixed martial arts world, new restrictive transgender athlete legislation going into effect in many states across the country, the olympics, the top NFL draft prospects and top 5 draft predictions from Marty & Ian, and some NBA updates and thoughts on the upcoming playoffs with a few teams already clinching their spot. 

We cover a very sensitive topic in this podcast, the trans athlete legislation topic. We would like to let all of our listeners know that every single member of this podcast supports the trans rights movement. The majority of the crew are actually members of the LGBTQ+ community and the others are staunch allies. We feel it's important to bring these types of topics to the forefront of public discourse and speak unfettered instead of shying away and pretending like it doesn't exist. 

The crew returns after a brief hiatus to discuss the end of March Madness, NCAA coaching changes, the transfer portal, NBA trade deadline winners and losers, the beginning of the MLB season, the All-Star game being moved, Boxing and UFC.

The crew discusses the weekend with the most upsets in March Madness history and how all of our brackets are now in the trash. We go in depth with upset analysis and second weekend predictions. NFL and FIFA news is also mentioned within the episode.

The first episode with the full crew. We give our predictions for the first weekend of March Madness and go into depth on the most exciting matchups. 

The crew gets together to begin a new podcast (minus Erik who was at the B1G championship game). This is only a dry run but it still packs a sports analysis punch. Bear with us while we figure out the audio engineering.
