February 16, 2024The Difference Between Good and Great (Guest: Del Reid - #BillsMafia Founder)
Guest: Del Reid (BillsMafia/26 Shirts Founder, 2023 Bills FOY)
Topic: The Difference Between Good And Great
Summary: Fresh off recently winning Buffalo Bills fan of the year and representing all of us at the Super Bowl, BillsMafia and 26 Shirts founder Del Reid joins us to discuss where is line between good and great in sports?

Questions/Points
Is a championship required for a player/coach/team to be considered “great”?

What is the most profound exposure to greatness you have experienced in your lifetime?

Does very good ever undermine the pursuit of greatness?

After watching the Super Bowl up close, and the AFCCG the line between the Bills and Chiefs is razor thin, what do you think is that line?

What does it take to go from good to great?

Does greatness require great risk?

Some teachers/coaches can take a bad player/student/team and make them good just by cleaning up stupid mistakes and lack of discipline, but it is much harder and more rare to take a good player/student/team and show them how to be great.

Talent alone can be very good and work ethic alone can also be very good, but great is the combination of both

Are there levels to greatness? Or is it like a Hall of Fame?

February 09, 2024Sports Is A Business [What Does That Actually Mean?] (Guest Drew Gier - Rockpile Report)
Summary: People always say the professional leagues are a business, but what exactly does that mean? Drew Geir from the Rockpile Report joins us to discuss everything from financial implications to media criticism to fan reactions. In business time is money. There are standards and expectations that ultimately boil down to the bottomline, regardless of the circumstances or excuses.
A Few Initial Questions/Points
Buffalo fanbase has an issue with accountability, they treat their team like its their kids teeball team. Positive support over professional criticism.

Does a “family” culture help or hurt the bottom line?

If results don’t matter what are we doing here?

Are expectations toxic or healthy goals?

Being a positive homer can look pretty toxic as well when we start dragging and running Sports reporters out of town for being fairly critical and objective rather than fans

At what level do you think it becomes more business than sport?

If it truly is a bottom line driven business, at what point are heavy handed outcomes good for business?

Does continuity bread success or smoother boldness for the sake of security?
