Podcast returns after a week hiatus as the boys needed to refresh battery. Most of this podcast features talk about the NBA Trade Deadline which happened this afternoon. Some said it was uneventful, but I beg to differ on that with a lot of things happening throughout the week.

We cover Milwaukee Bucks first looking at the team making minor moves and talk about what the last 27 games of the season could look like with Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton leading the show. There's some Jabari Parker talk as well.We also talk about why it's more probable than not Bucks will make the playoffs due to the rest of the teams around them being dumpster fires.

We talk about the weird situation with Bulls, Paul George and how the hell did the DeMarcus Cousins trade happen? Further, a discussion about the Lakers situation and what they will end up doing.

The podcast finishes with Marquette and Wisconsin talk as we inch closer to the tournament.

This is a shorter than usual podcast, but it's worth your time I promise. We talk about the Super Bowl after a few days of digesting it and look at how this game changed so quickly. Mitch asked a question about "Packers like Patriots?" where we talk about if that's accurate or not with some Green Bay notes as well.

We talk about this being the best sports year ever with all of the great games and being blessed to talk about for the last year.

Another large part of our podcast is talking about Bucks making the move to the Fox Valley and what it means for the team as well as the state. Then we wrap up with new baseball rules.

Charlie.

Mitch and Charlie return for another strong episode of Tapping The Keg podcast, your favorite sports program. We talk about the not 'Sticking to Sports' on social media from sports media types. It's a good, healthy discussion about where we're at in this world. That goes into previewing the Super Bowl and why Tom Brady doesn't owe you an apology.

The local part of the show features Milwaukee Bucks and breaking down what their season could look like if they fall apart in the mountains for the next three games. We end up doing a weird rank of the NBA head coaches as well, and Jason Kidd doesn't score favorably. We also talk about the LeBron and Charles Barkley beef to finish up the show.

Tapping The Keg podcast features an exit interview of sorts debriefing on Packers as they exit from our lives for awhile. We look at the game on Sunday then talk about which free agents hold the most value on this team.

We head into basketball where we get super sad about Bucks and believe the next two weeks are the season. Charlie reflects on Marquette's iconic win and Yordano Ventura talk.

Tapping The Keg Podcast Episode 221 coming at you with Charlie and Mitch talking about Championship Weekend in the National Football League previewing Green Bay Packers and Atlanta Falcons with the showdown between Matt Ryan and Aaron Rodgers. We preview all parts of that game and look at where we stand for the final outcome of the last game in Georgia Dome. We also give some time to New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers. If you enjoy me flubbing sports movie coaches, this part is for you. Podcast also touches on Jason Kidd and why his seat is getting warmer by the day, and we go over some of Milwaukee Bucks recent failures. We look at the MLB Hall of Fame for a second as well.

Happy New Year from Tapping The Keg!

Lucky win? Not with the Packers. Maybe Tapping The Keg is lucky to have you as a loyal listener. We unpack Packers big win against Chicago, and what are the takeaways from the game plus why lucky wins aren't a thing in December.

We look at Bucks big week with two wins against Chicago, and why Charlie and Mitch are dealing with Bucks' moodswings for the month of December. We look at DeMarcus Cousins against the media, and if he's a red flag for all NBA teams.

Podcast returns for another week where we get way too excited about Packers chances after throttling Seattle Seahawks. We look at Aaron Rodgers' MVP chances, Packers playoff hopes and what we've seen recently.

We also look at Bucks struggles, and what can be done. Charlie also goes on a good ole fashioned rant towards Adam Silver in regards to Buck upcoming schedule. We also talk about Nate Duncan putting Giannis and Jabari as two of the best players under 23.

We finish talking about Nigel Hayes 'little brother' comments and why it rubbed Charlie the wrong way. Not the comments, but the passive aggressive aspect of it.
