We are at the end of the season and Sunday is the Big Dance! Super Bowl LVI (56) will be between the Los Angeles Rams and the Cincinnati Bengals and the Urban Arena crew (Bigg Q and The Sage of Sports) are here to break it down and give you their picks on who will win the Championship.  

Among the picks we will also discuss the NFL coaching hires and our definition of DIVERSITY, the Brian Flores lawsuit against the NFL and three teams specifically and how a minority billionaire might claim an NFL team.  Join us and tell us what you think and give us your picks.  Enjoy.

After having arguably one of the best Playoff Weekends in NFL history with the 2022 NFL Divisional games, Bigg Q and I come back behind the mic to describe the greatness of the four games that was played that weekend and we give our picks on who will win the two games in the Conference Championship.  The games on Sunday consist of the Cincinnati Bengals going to Arrowhead Stadium to play the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers going to SoFi Stadium to go against the Los Angeles Rams.

Enjoy the episode and tell us what you think.

I had a great time linking up with Bigg Q last night to give our 2021-22 NFL Wild Card Weekend Picks.  We also talked about the NFL Coaching Carousel that involved the firing of Mike Zimmer (Vikings), Matt Nagy (Bears), Brian Flores (Dolphins), Vic Fangio (Broncos), Joe Judge (Giants) and David Culley (Texans).  We also talked about the mad drama that is Antonio Brown; why does he do the things that he do and is there something really wrong with the talented wide receiver?

Enjoy this episode and tell us what you think about our picks.

Until next time, be good and be safe. Later….I’m out.

College Football Bowl games are being played and we know who will play in the CFP Championship.  We have the Alabama Crimson Tide going against the Ohio State Buckeyes on January 11th.  I will give my prediction in a later episode, but I give my thoughts on what's wrong with picking the top four teams (no different than the old BCS ways), how I feel about the Buckeyes coming in through the back door, and if Buckeyes QB Justin Fields do well in the championship game, does that raise his draft stock high enough to catch the attention of Jacksonville Jaguars (who has the number one pick) or the other teams from 2-5?

Also talk about the Texas Longhorns fired football head coach Tom Herman after four seasons to set the seat open for Alabama OC Steve Sarkisian.  Will this move put the Longhorns on the right track or will Sarkisian be a bust and all he can do is be a good offensive coordinator?

Last, I will give you my picks for the last week (17) of the regular season.

This episode will cover the ups and downs of two NBA franchises.

-Giannis signs 5-year, $228M extension to remain with Bucks  Bucks fans can let out a sigh of relief. Their two-time NBA MVP is staying in Milwaukee.

-Is James Harden a cry baby and cancerous to the Houston Rockets organization and in the locker room?  A lot of NBA fans think so.

-My Week 15 NFL picks of the 2020 season  There might be one or two upsets in there.

In this episode, I will talk about the feat that Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers accomplished in NFL history by becomeing the fastest QB ever to reach 400 passing touchdowns.  I have a segment when I chop it up with my bother and Urban Arena affiliate, Bigg Q of TeamBoydTv, as we have a little NFL talk on the current affairs in the league and debate on who will win Sunday's game when my beloved Denver Broncos go to Bank of America Stadium to play his Carolina Panthers; there's a double-or-nothing gentlemen's bet at stake here.

I will also give you my picks for Week 14 of the 2020 NFL season.  

A lot has been happening in the NBA and Glass will talk briefly on the Milwaukee Bucks and how they're making moves to try and keep Giannis, the Russell Westbrook/John Wall trade (who made out on the trade?), LeBron James and Anthony Davis got paid handsomely by the Los Angeles Lakers and how that solidifies them always being in playoff contention and will end the episode with my NFL Week 13 picks.

This week I am joined by my brother from another, my debate rival, and a person I look up to in this podcast world.  I would like to welcome Bigg Q, the host and founder of TeamBoydTv Turbo where he has shows that cover the NFL; there's TeamBoydTv LIVE that consists of us two and JB (Ravens Shogun).  He also has a podcast here on Anchor.fm named Sunday's Best that also covers the NFL.

On this episode we calmly talk about the topics we had a falling out on the night before when we had a debate on Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Tom Brady trying to decide if he's washed up.  We also debated on if the Green Bay Packers were actually gonna win the NFC.  We covered other topics before we went right in on our Picks for the Week 10 of the 2020 NFL season.
