This week we do a watch-along with game four of the 1984 NBA Finals. We also do a quick run down of our mother's sports crushes.

The link to the video for the watch-along is at https://youtu.be/bjAlWjN_DgA

This week we react to Green Bay's coaching blunders, Patrick Mahomes outgunning Josh Allen, and look at the Pacers big moves. We also only made two references to male genitalia this week.

Aaron here. I said episode 27, but this is definitley number 28. Sorry about that! Due to some other travel plans, we weren't going to be able to record at a time that made sense to cover the rest of the sports world, but I didn't want to just miss a week entirely. So instead, you get a watch-along.

For this episode, you're going to want to go here. The idea here is you start that video of an MLB PowerPros 2008 game, and I comment on it as you watch. This particular game happens to be the World Series winner of the season I just simulated a few months back, which is planned to be the first season of ten.

I also shamelessly stole this idea from Jim Cornette, though I'm sure he shamelessly stole it from somebody else.  

A look at all this weekend's football games and a bit of a moratorium on the Colts' season.

The Colts managed to squeak into the playoffs, so we're here to talk about it. There is one very minor league hockey story and a bit of speculation on the Jaguars future.

Aaron is also still figuring out the best settings on the new mic, so we ask for your patience while that gets tinkered with.

We unfortunately waited to record especially to review what turned out to be a bad Colts showing. The Pacers and hockey are far more hopeful, though. We also looked at some of the overlap between boxing and pro wrestling and how wrestling might take some cues from the boxing world to fix their ratings issues.

This week, we take a look at Native American imagery in sports and the NFL playoff picture. We also talk about how Steve Kornacki became a pop culture touchstone and things slightly derail when Pat McAfee comes up. That's just the effect Pat McAfee has in general, though.

(Well after titling and setting this episode to publish, it has come to light that Steve Kornacki was a guest on Pat McAfee's show. Which shouldn't be surprising, but in the interest of full disclosure, we did not realize it or remember it at the time.)

Today we look at Coach K and Nate Oates sniping at each other, realigning the NHL, and take a look at what's happening with the Pacers with the NBA nearing another start.

Erroll Spence Jr. vs Danny Garcia recap and a look at how the welterweight divison could (maybe should?) play out from here.

A look at the Colts' trouble against the Titans, Purdue's so-so start to the basketball year, and some thoughts on the legacy of Mike Tyson and the future of the Paul Brothers.

There is a little bit of language in this podcast, but that seems a bit inevitable with Mike Tyson and the Paul Brothers.
