The Monty Show: Daily Sports Talk

Monty & Jake are talking NFL Playoffs and the disaster in the Cleveland Browns locker room! The Browns lost Pro Bowl Guard Joel Bitonio to Coronavirus this week and have very few options to replace him as they head for a Sunday matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Should the NFL delay this game? Monty says absolutely not! The NBA wants to expand to Seattle and Las Vegas, and it could net the NBA $5 Billion dollars! Does the NBA need two more teams and is Las Vegas a viable spot? Seattle lost an NBA franchise once already, when the Seattle Super Sonics moved to OKC, do they deserve another? The Utah Jazz came out flat last night, and got blown out by Brooklyn ...WITHOUT KD (Kevin Durant is sitting out due to Coronavirus exposure)...The Nets won by 30! Former BYU Basketball player Jonathan Tavernari is making the case that LDS Kids who are athletically gifted should not serve missions. Is he right? Is the LDS Church more concerned about winning or the gospel? Monty & Jake says, no, not even close. McDonalds owners are revolting over their menus, and they are demanding change. The Georgia Senate runoffs made history on Tuesday Night, but is the United States better off as it appears both races went to the Democrats, Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock. Should either party have complete control of Congress? Where does Donald Trump go after his term in the White House is over? Is President Trump responsible for the Republicans losing the Georgia Senate Runoffs? Will Mitch McConnell certify the Electoral College today?

Monty & Jake are talking NFL Coaching vacancies! The Los Angeles Chargers, New York Jets, Jacksonville Jaguars, Houston Texans, Atlanta Falcons, and Detroit Lions are all looking for Coaches...which job is the best? Who is the best available coaching candidates? Is Kansas City Chiefs OC Eric Bieniemy the best available coach? What about New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels? San Francisco 49ers DC Robert Saleh? The Philadelphia Eagles have issues! Doug Pederson is facing backlash in his own locker room altering pulling Jalen Hurts late in the Eagles loss to the Washington Football Team on Sunday Night Football, can Pederson be expected to garner respect from his players after pulling Hurt and appearing to tank the game?

Shaq went on a podcast this week and ripped Utah Jazz Center Rudy Gobert over his new $200M contract, while Gobert only scores 11PPG. Is Gobert over paid? Was it a mistake for the Utah Jazz to sign Gobert for that much money?

BYU Football OC Jeff Grimes took the same job at Baylor, and some BYU Football fans are upset, believing grimes disrespected BYU by taking a lateral move, but Monty says it is only good times for BYU Football, with or without Grimes.

The Georgia Senate runoff election is today, and there are major questions about what President Trump said in a phone call to the Georgia Secretary of State, and if Donald Trump broke law or if his actions on the call were criminal.

Monty and Jake talk about a run of bad service, from Costco Tires, to Commercial Real Estate Agents not returning calls, it's been a difficult couple of weeks for the guys.

Monty & Jake are talking NFL Playoffs! The Philadelphia Eagles and Eagles Head Coach Doug Pederson caused shock and outrage by pulling starting QB Jalen Hurts, thus handing the Washington Football Team the NFC East and a Playoff spot, while keeping the New York Giants OUT of the Playoffs. Did the Philadelphia Eagles throw the game to improve their NFL Draft positioning? The Chicago Bears made the NFL Playoffs, by losing, and Monty says no matter what, Bears Coach Matt Nagy and General Manager Ryan Pace should be fired after the season. Who is going to win the Super Bowl? Should the Arizona Cardinals fire Kliff Kingsbury? There is a lot of talk they may do just that! The guys discuss their favorites after the NFL Playoffs were set. Are the Green Bay Packers truly the NFC's best? The Cleveland Browns made the Playoffs, are all the questions about Baker Mayfield 's future now answered? Should the Los Angeles Rams start Jared Goff or John Wolford? How good are the Seattle Seahawks? They barely beat the San Francisco 49ers to close the season, are the Seahawks good enough to compete for a Super Bowl? Can Tom Brady lead the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to a Championship? Plus it's "Black Monday" in the NFL, the New York Jets were first to fire their Head Coach Adam Gase, who is next? Steph Curry went CRAZY dropping 62 points, that was fun, but the Golden State Warriors are not good! Paul George and Devin Booker got heated as the Los Angeles Clipper knocked off the Phoenix Suns, after the game Paul George said he is tired of the trash talking about last season, did Devin Booker go too far? Find out what he said and the reaction to it. The Utah Jazz got an easy win over the San Antonio Spurs, have they turned a corner now? Did Donovan Mitchell get out of his early season slump? Is Bojan Bogdanovic a legit #2 option? Is James Harden out of shape? The Houston Rockets got back to 500, without James Harden, and have lost 2 of 3 with Harden, who is averaging 37 PPG. Should the Rockets trade Harden? Are they better without him? John Wall has been good for the Rockets, but can the Rockets trust Wall to stay healthy? BYU QB Zach Wilson declared for the NFL Draft, was it the right choice? Add Zach Wilson to Dax Milne, OL Brady Christensen, S Troy Warner, and DL Khyiris Tonga who are all headed for the NFL Draft, so where does BYU Football go from here? Donald Trump called the Georgia Secretary of State and asked him to "find votes" and some are now calling for the House of Representatives to open impeachment proceedings against President Trump. Should they? Oh by the way, the Georgia Senate Election is tomorrow ...can the Republicans keep control of the Senate? Can the Democrats hand President Joe Biden control of both houses of Congress?

Monty & Jake are talking NFL QB's! Should Monty's Chicago Bears bring Mitch Trubisky back? Should the New York Jets stick with Sam Darnold? What should the LA Rams do with Jared Goff? Monty says Adam Gase is going to the Patriots next season, will he? The NBA saw another record as the Milwaukee Bucks hit 29 3's in their 47 point win over the Miami Heat...are 3's good for the NBA? It's LeBron James birthday, is he the G.O.A.T? Is LBJ capable of winning an MVP this season? Lindsey Vonn and PK Subban are DONE! Is Vonn the new Jennifer Aniston? Monty & Jake have an epic Bowflex story to tell! Lindsey Vonn and PK Subban are done, are super successful people difficult to date? Can men wear "Joggers" or are they taboo? Was the Nashville bombing actually NOT a bombing? Was it a missile strike or laser shot?

Monty and Jake are talking Yu Darvish to the San Diego Padres! Are the Cubs in full fire sale mode? Is the Darvish trade anything but a salary dump for the Cubs? Are the Padres now on par with the Dodgers? Who is the best team in the NFL? Monty says the Buffalo Bills have to be there, but no, they are not the best. What should the Arizona Cardinals expect in Los Angeles against the Rams, with Jared Goff out with thumb surgery, is this an easy win for the Cardinals? The guys discuss new rumors surrounding the James Harden trade, and they include the Utah Jazz and Boston Celtics. Where does Harden ultimately end up and where can Harden make the biggest impact?
