On this week's episode, Andy and Adam discuss a hot dog guy, when do you know whether a team is "good" (and what good means), and whether the Chicago Bears will move to Hammond, Indiana.

On this week's edition of The Basement, Andy recounts his high school boys softball tournament in Budapest and we wonder aloud about make up calls in sports and the Chicago White Sox ugly City Connect jerseys and if it affects their play.

This week on "The Basement", Andy and Adam discuss which technological improvements to sports enhance the viewing experience (and which detract), which sport of the 4 major American sports is hardest to officiate, and who are the top 5 WHIFF pitchers in baseball.

This week on The Basement Podcast: How long does it take for you to know when a player is what their recent performance/statistics say they are (for good or for bad)? How long does Ildemaro Vargas need to keep hitting at his current clip before we say he is among the better hitters in baseball after years of being an average player? How long before we say Kyle Tucker isn't the same guy as he was in Houston? We try and come up with an answer...not sure we came close.

We also talk xBACON which is disappointingly not a delicious super bacon-like product. Enjoy!
