That's a Good Point

In today’s episode, Dion, Jon, and Irv tackle a somewhat challenging topic, the most important what-if moments in NCAA and NBA basketball history. It can be challenging to determine the objective with a list like this, as it’s a wide-ranging topic. Still, it definitely led to some quality discussion about important aspects of basketball. 

Dion, Irv, and Jon rank the best movies that take place in about 24 hours. Some tough cuts had to be made, as always, but the fellas were able to narrow the list down and rank their favorites. There are so many choices, but what would you pick from the list of: Training Day, Die Hard, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Superbad, Dazed and Confused, or The Breakfast Club?

Dion, Irv, and Jon take their favorite number 87, and go back in time to rank their favorite movies from the year 1987. Apologies to the box office as Three Men and a Baby, Fatal Attraction, and Beverly Hills Cop II were cut from the list and they were the top-grossing movies released in that year. The Oscar-winning picture from that year, The Last Emperor was also cut from the list. Apologies should also be offered to those who love their "chick-flicks" as Dirty Dancing and Can't Buy Me Love also miss the list. What movie do you enjoy the most from this list: Full Metal Jacket, The Princess Bride, Predator, Spaceballs, The Untouchables, Lethal Weapon, Planes, Trains, and Automobiles?

John and Kevin join Dion, Irv, and Jon to discuss the best football seasons* from our state's big two universities. Iowa certainly leads in volume as Iowa State's football history isn't what one would call "storied". The fellas found three seasons from the Cyclones and three from the Hawkeyes to compare and vote on. Certainly, there were some tough cuts for Hawkeye fans. What are your favorite memories from Iowa or Iowa State football?

*Only seasons from our lifetime were researched so apologies to the 1958 Hawkeyes.

Dion, Irv, and Jon are joined by Kyle and Denton to rank some of their favorite fictional football players. Kyle had joined the fellas back in July of 2021 to rank fictional baseball players so this was somewhat related. What do you think of Paul Crewe, Willie Beamen, and Shane Falco? What about college players like Forrest Gump, Johnny Utah, or Bobby Boucher? Don't forget about High School players like Tim Riggins, Smash Williams, Billy Bob, or Jonathan Moxon. We could even look at middle school football players like Becky "Icebox" O'Shea or Air Bud Golden Reciever! Who are some of your favorite fictional football players?
