Welcome to another unfiltered, belly-laughing, brain-melting episode of the Simple Minds Sports Show, where the sports takes are scorching and the humor’s got more kick than a bottle of gas station hot sauce.

This week, we fire up "10 Questions with a Guy Named Rob", and oh baby, he ain't holdin’ back. From the NBA rigging conspiracies to Cooper Flagg's future and the eternal war between floss and mouthwash—nothing is sacred, and everything is on the table. Even Draymond's $50K fine and his ongoing war against referees' integrity.

Then we dive headfirst into Patriots Rookie Camp and the NFL schedule release with the intensity of Mike Vrabel calling out dudes by name. We’re talking Will Campbell’s “tree trunk” thighs, Efton Chisom’s Cooper Kupp-level production, and whether the Patriots paid too much to outbid for their new WR weapon. Spoiler: they might’ve, but it’s Boston, so who cares?

And finally, we pour one out for Jayson Tatum’s Achilles, rip Mazzulla’s coaching philosophy to shreds, and ask whether Brad Stevens has the balls (and brains) to actually reshape the Celtics’ future. Should they tank? Rebuild? Reload? Or just set the Garden on fire and start over?

Also, Dr. Big Mac gets personal. You ever heard a man with chronic diarrhea break down Boston sports? You have now.
