We are joined by Yankees fan and one of our high school friends Sam Hardiman. Fun fact: we discovered Sam is the first verified twitter account as a graduate of our high school (shoutout to Billy Gilman!). We had to do some digging in the episode, but we found this to be true. Throughout the episode we discuss the Patriots beating the Chiefs, why the NFL is doomed to be overtaken by college football, of course we mention the Red Sox and what their future beholds, and we end the podcast with a brand new segment: What If...? This week...what if Alex Rodriguez was traded to the Red Sox instead of the Yankees? How does that impact baseball as we know it? Be sure to give a rating, subscribe, and spread the word!

Disclaimer: We were all extremely distracted during the recording of this podcast. It was recorded during game 3 of the Sox/Yankees ALDS. Luckily, the Sox smacked the Yankees around the block. We talk about our adventures in Boston on Saturday for game 2 of the series, recap the Patriots whooping on the Colts while previewing the big game against the Chiefs on SNF next week. In this weeks Top5, a 21+ segment this week, we talk about our favorite drinks. There's a lot of banter and BS in there today, but if I were a loyal listener I would be on the lookout for another drop later this week. *eyes emoji*. Be sure the rate and subscribe to the podcast!

This is the best episode yet. With the MLB playoffs upon us we have a special guest, Terry Cushman. We talk about the Red Sox chances this postseason, and have some back and forth about David Price and Dustin Pedroia (is he a bad father?). We also have Red Sox related Top5 and Confessions segment. Of course, we talk about week 4 of the NFL as well. There are some big takes in there of course. Follow the twitter @SmallStateTakes!

Well, he did it. Mike Gilligan is a fantasy baseball champion. We congratulate him and dive into what has happened over the past week. The Red Sox clinch and secure home field.
