If it can be passed, tackled, or tempo-set—John Murphy Jr. probably did it. This week, the guys regroup after yet another draw—eight matches without a win, but our guest swears we're this close (imagine Meerman pinching his thumb and forefinger close together in front of a squinty face).

Plus: Vonnegut quotes, team vibes, and a rapid-fire round that might reveal who’s thinking about snacks during warmups.
