    The 76ers will get plenty of attention, of course, as they prepare for a Round 2 meeting with the Raptors, but another NFL Draft is upon us, so that takes top billing on this week's Philly Pressbox Radio Roundtable. Making a return visit to the show to talk about what the Eagles might do and much more is Mark Eckel of Bob McGinn Football and BettorsInsider.com. In addition, Wall Street Journal sports columnist Jason Gay stops by to talk about Tiger Woods and what's ahead for the Masters champion ... and Bill Furman and Jim "Chet" Chesko discuss the suddenly struggling Phillies and the big Kate Smith controversy.

What a thrill to have Pat visit the Philly Pressbox Radio Roundtable! Also on this week's show, back for a second visit, is Philly.com Sixers reporter Sarah Todd, to help us preview the upcoming NBA playoffs. Sarah does a terrific job covering Brett Brown's club!

Oh, the Sixers officially are a playoff team, and it's NCAA Tournament time! We'll cover all of that and more on this week's Philly Pressbox Radio Roundtable, with a couple of great guests. We talk with the television voice of the Phillies, Tom McCarthy, and one of our favorite Broad St. Bullies, Bob "Hound" Kelly!

  • PPR #226: Live at Irish Rover w/Brandon Lee Gowton (3-3-19, POOR AUDIO)
    (*POOR AUDIO QUALITY) This is an audio-only replay of our March 3, 2019, show LIVE at the Irish Rover Station House in Langhorne. We talked Phillies (Bryce Harper is a Phil!), Eagles (a busy offseason, for sure) and Sixers (ready for the stretch drive). Bleeding Green Nation's Brandon Lee Gowton joined Bill Furman, Jim "Chet" Chesko and Fred Hugo for a great show in front of a packed house at the Rover. (The show was terrific there at the bar/restaurant, but sadly the Facebook Live audio was generally crappy.)
