  • Opi & the Bear - Episode 157 - Hey…We Did It…but Bye Grimbo

    We spend a lot of this trying to play a little catch up from the

    lost weeks of technical issues, but we also finalize a lot of things like some of the money winners from leagues other than the FBFL, the predictions, and the end of an era where Grimbo rides off into the night on his White Shetland Pony. You can tell these guys haven't gotten together in a while as the giggling was all over the place. If nothing else, go to the end and listen to the sad song Bear put together for Grim's send off. We extend this a little longer by talking about the Kelce bump and the fact that Grim doesn't like drunk people…OK, it wasn't quite that way, but we have a lively discussion about the celebration!

  • Opi & the Bear - Episode 156 - Surprise Guest in the HOUSE!

    We got no produca, so we got no love this week as Bear really

    just didn't want to look anything up, so we go straight into some baseball free agents and have fun with that. We do, however, get a surprise guest with the founder of Grinder, Marcus Laethum coming on site to hang with us. We do have a weird transition early on due to some speak that shall not be played on the air, listen for that as it ended up being a funny transition. We do our Stupid Bowl stuff and then really start losing control at the end.

  • Opi & the Bear - Episode 155 - Someone Pee'd in Bear's Captain

    We do some shit talking about mega-agent Scott Boras and then end up spending time getting wet over his daughter…look her up! We go over what we think is the perfect woman for AJ…and fail. AJ and Bear get into a little argument about Brock Purdy and his abilities. We also spend too much time looking at some ladies and commenting on that, though this is AJs best breakdown of the year. We finish with some real fun predictions of certain activities we feel may happen in this weekend's games.

  • Opi & the Bear - Episode 154 - We got the Band Back Together

    Holy CRAP do the boys have some energy this week. Grim & Bear yell at each other. Ryan & AJ can't shut the F up, Opi shows his frustration, it's like the old days of podcasting again and is fun to listen to! Ryan's Love section gets incredibly weird a couple times as we go off into some really disturbing tangents. At the end, the guys really have a lot of fun breaking down the upcoming games and, though most don't care about our picks, the discussions are a good time and fun to listen to, and go off the rails a couple times yet again.

  • Opi & the Bear - Episode 153 - Bear gets Jelly Rolled by a Cookie

    Bear ate a little too much of a special cookie and was pretty

    out of it for the last half of this one. We do the normal and give some updates followed by some FBFL chat and then some predictions. Bear made a special tribute song to our Champion Kyler of the Jelly Rolls.

  • Opi & the Bear - Episode 152 - To Play, or Not to Play…That is a HUGE Question

    We start out with the normal intro and then get into some family chat about how Grandpa Behrens is doing, and then we intro a new Opi & the Bear member Lauren Melissa Behrens who was born just before the New Year. The guys talk quite a bit of golf prior to getting going into the fun stuff. We spend quite a bit of time trying to figure out players who can replace those sitting in week 18 and moves the playoff teams can make. Good luck to the Anacondas & Jelly Rolls who are in the championship this weekend!

  • Opi & the Bear - Episode 151 - Getting to the Semi's; Breakdown of Playoff Teams

    If you like Grimbo, you'll love this one because he has an echo,

    or as the pro's call it, he has a little reverb. This makes him tough to understand most the time but he always sounds like he has a dick in the mouth anyway, so you may not notice. We go VERY deep into the playoff matchups and give our thoughts on possible changes teams can make to solidify their team for the week. Bear has a database that has 30 years of stats in it and loves to bust it out to give some history on the two teams also and that's fun to listen to. Happy New Year to both of our listeners and we'll talk more in '24!

  • Opi & the Bear - Episode 150 - Playoffs! Dak & MAC rhyme, and both SUCK!

    The boys got Dak'd! And they voice their anger about it early. We skip a lot of the normal sections and really just get down to the brass tax on the FBFL playoffs that happened week 1 and that will happen week 2. We also go further in depth about our thoughts for who to play for the playoff fantasy teams and Bear has an interesting finding on how the FBFL does in NFL picks compared to the "experts" that get paid. You'll want to hear this and pat yourselves on the back FBFL guys!

    This episode is mainly about the playoffs in all the different

    leagues with the number 1 concern, of course, being the FBFL and how the playoff picture ended up. Plus, we talk in depth about the games this weekend and give some pretty outstanding insight about the NFL matchups that are going  to be 100% incorrect.
