Ex-NFL lineman Anthony Alabi joins us to give some perspective on the Richie Incognito-Jonathan Martin Saga, plus lets us know what it’s like to step away from the Sunday spotlight into the bright lights of Hollywood. We get to the heart of NFL locker room culture, including the role of veteran leadership, managing camaraderie, and understanding how players have to be accountable for their presence on a team. Anthony also gives some perspective on the NCAA video game lawsuit, Fantasy Football, and his successful start in Hollywood after retiring from the NFL. This is "Sports Without Borders"…

We continue to highlight some of our best off-air debates in the episode, including the plight of female MCs and a spirited debate about Eminem. Is there a "shelf life" for female MCs? Is it just about beauties and the beats? Also, does Eminem get the recognition he deserves? How much of his success/hate has to do with race? Lastly, which of your favorite artists never got his/her due? We discuss all this and more. This is Sports Without Borders...

We're bringing some of our biggest off-air debates to the show. Up first, we talk about the future of hip-hop and what we'd like to see going forward--more variety, more competition, and more distinct styles of music. But the conversation doesn't end there; the notion of "beef" has been lingering over our crew for a while now (ever since Kendrick Lamar's "Control" verse) and we decided to tackle the issue head on. Is "beef" good for hip-hop? We'll let you decide, but before you do, you should listen to this conversation.

We induct the second class of The Section 357 Show Hip-Hop Hall of Fame, and this time Rick Rubin, Hammer, Diddy, Hype Williams, Wu-Tang, Ice Cube, 2Pac, and Will Smith are all up for consideration. It was difficult to narrow this list down to four inductees, but through some great debating we finally got it done, and may have formed an unlikely law firm in the process. Last, but not least, we show love to one of Hip-Hop's instrumental figures in our Veteran Selection. This is Sports Talk without borders...

The Ball Street Journal breaks down the present and future of the NFL Quarterback. Is the Read Option a signal of a larger shift? What are the financial implications of a future franchise QB? Is a dual quarterback system a legitimate strategy? We answer these questions and more, plus deconstruct what makes a great NFL QB and identify the current signal callers with the best of those attributes. (Some of those answers just might surprise you.)

Finally, your Mobile QBs craft some heartfelt love letters to the starting quarterbacks of their respective NFL teams. What's not to love?

It's Week 2 in the NFL, and there are already some signs of distress for a few teams. Will Cam Newton make a better fit for the Tennessee Titans than the Carolina Panthers? Is Mike Shanahan ruining RGIII? Can the Miami Dolphins take over the AFC East? These are just a few of the thoughts on our mind during out "Two Week Notice".

Flipping gears into College Football, did Johnny Manziel help or hurt his legacy by his performance against the Alabama Crimson Tide? Have you seen enough from Johnny Football to see him making an impact in the NFL? We discuss this and much more.

Lastly, Floyd Mayweather Jr. continues to show why he's the best in the business, but is he good for the sport? Also, will this lopsided loss actually help Canelo Alvarez going forward. Trey thinks so; Floyd doesn't. Will "Money" Mayweather need to retire to help the sport? The debate lingers.

(Also, we take a trip to the bakery for a slice of Pound Cake for our musical selection. This is Sports Without Borders.)
