The Klown Times Presents: The Klown Hour Sports Podcast

We reacted to the epic Baltimore Ravens-Cleveland Browns on Monday Night Football, talked about the slumping Pittsburgh Steelers, clowned the College Football Playoff rankings (Iowa State and Florida, REALLY???), Giannis supermax extension, and Major League Baseball FINALLY recognizing the Negro Leagues as major league.

We discussed my Pittsburgh Steelers prime time upset at the hands of the Washington Football Team, the Cleveland Browns big win over the Tennessee Titans, Iowa State being in the College Football Playoff's Top 10, and Errol Spence Jr's dominate win over Danny Garcia.

We reacted to the Steelers-Ravens Wednesday night (??) game, clowned the NFC East, reacted to the shocking Russell Westbrook-John Wall trade -- and nearly forgot about the Mike Tyson-Roy Jones Jr. exhibition fight.

Intro: (0:00)Steelers-Ravens reaction (1:05)NFC "Least" talk (18:22)Browns at Titans preview (26:40)College Football Playoff (33:53)Westbrook-Wall trade and other NBA news (56:22)Tyson-Jones Jr. fight/get Snoop Dogg a job!!! (1:16:00)

We discussed NBA free agency, debated who the best team in the NFL is, and how the Cincinnati Bengals have failed Joe Burrow in the wake of his injury.

Duane Nash and I wondered aloud what the hell were the Charlotte Hornets thinking in giving Gordon Hayward $120 million, and why we thought Jaysom Tatum and Donovan Mitchell signing their big extensions were good for both the Celtics and Jazz, respectively.Even though my Pittsburgh Steelers are still unbeaten, are they really better than the Kansas City Chiefs?Will the Joe Burrow era end the same way Carson Palmer's did?  Will the Bengals ever do right by Burrow?

During this episode, we rapped about the 2020 NBA Draft, James Harden and Russell Westbrook wanting out of Houston, format changes to the 2020-2021 NBA season, and the NFL providing incentives for minority hiring.

When the Charlotte Hornets selected LaMelo Ball, my partner Duane Nash and I laughed at the thought of Lavar Ball and Michael Jordan going at it 1-on-1 style, but we gave our thoughts on how great the draft pick was.  Also discussed if top pick Anthony Edwards will be a bust and gushed over my Knicks' pick of Obi Toppin.While Harden and Westbrook want out of Houston, we gave our thoughts on why we both believe they will stay their asses in Houston this coming season.While we like the NFL trying to make moves for minority coaching/executive opportunities behind the scenes, is the Rooney Rule REALLY working the way it was intended to?

Testing to see if this Zoom thing will work

I will be discussing the 2020 ACC football season, including the big Clemson vs. Notre Dame game -- rap a bit about the upcoming men's and women's basketball season -- with Jeff Fan and Matthew, aka Hokie Smash, from All Sports Discussion ACC blog.

Notre Dame picked up a huge win over Clemson, albeit against a team that started a backup QB who is a true freshman and that was without its top defensive linemen.  Is Notre Dame now the team to beat in the ACC, even with a healthy Clemson?The AP has Virginia and Louisville favored to win the men's and women's regular season title, respectively.  The guys and I have some beef with the AP, find out who we think the favorites should be.

The homie Duane Nash and I will be debating who is the best team in the NFL (Chiefs, Steelers, Buccaneers?), previewing Clemson vs. Notre Dame and is Jim Harbaugh overrated or not? 

My Pittsburgh Steelers are STILL undefeated, but the Kansas City Chiefs are still playing well as the defending champs, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Seattle Seahawks are straight balling.  This debate of who is the best team in the NFL will be settled once and for all (until next week).Clemson at Notre Dame is by far college football's "Game of the Year".  Does a Clemson win with a backup QB make the Tigers the team to beat in all of college football?I've long contended that U. of Michigan head football coach Jim Harbaugh is overrated as hell.  Hopefully I can FINALLY convince D-Nash the same.

Duane Nash and I will react to the Los Angeles Dodgers' World Series win over the Tampa Bay Rays last night, and all things NFL: last week's games, the drama surrounding the Dallas Cowboys, my unbeaten Pittsburgh Steelers, those lowly Atlanta Falcons, and Dez Bryant and Eric Reid being offered practice squad spots.

The Dodgers deservedly won the World Series, but how much help did Rays' manager Kevin Cash give them by pulling ace Blake Snell?  Does this kill the "analytics in baseball" support?Is the Dodgers' road to the World Series title tougher than the Lakers' to the NBA Finals?The Steelers won the battle of the unbeatens over the Titans last Sunday.  Does this make the Steelers the NFL's top team?The Cowboys are a mess.  What, if any, can be done to help turn their season around?The Falcons: WOW, just wow.Two former stars were offered practice squad spots, Dez Bryant and Eric Reid, with the former accepting.  How much could Dez help the Ravens?  Should Reid have joined Washington's offer?

I will be breaking down the 2020 World Series, who is the best of the unbeaten NFL teams, and how the Dallas Cowboys are faring post-Dak Prescott w/ Duane Nash from "The Yard/HBCU Sports" and Facebook Live's "SLZE Radio".

Duane and I are happy that those cheating-ass Astros are not in the World Series, but can the Tampa Bay Rays parlay that into their first championship against the heavily-favored Los Angeles Dodgers?The Pittsburgh Steelers, Tennessee Titans and Seattle Seahawks are the NFL's unbeaten teams.  Who is the best of this bunch?I thought the Cowboys would be okay post-Dak Prescott's horrific injury.  After watching Monday night's game vs. the Arizona Cardinals, I have my doubts.  The players are on the verge of a mutiny vs. head coach Mike McCarthy and his coaching staff.  Washington fan/fellow Cowboy hater Duane may have a few good laughs over this.
