Savage Sportscast is back…finally 😂

After almost 3 years, Ant and I got back behind the mic to talk sports, life, fan pain, and all the nonsense that somehow comes with being emotionally attached to teams that disappoint us yearly. We get into the NBA Playoffs, the Spurs somehow being good again already, the growth of the WNBA, Angel Reese leaving Chicago way sooner than I wanted, NIL changing college sports forever, and why sports conversations online feel exhausting now.

We also had to laugh at the Mike Vrabel and Diana Russini situation because NFL Twitter turned into a gossip page overnight. Somewhere in the middle of all that, we realized sports fans barely even enjoy sports anymore 😭

This episode feels more like kicking it with your peoples than some loud debate show. Just real conversations, jokes, frustration, and a couple “we said what we said” moments.
