The Slumpbuster

It's once again time to Bust the Slump and enjoy another episode of the Slumpbuster podcast! Joining us this week, both Aundre "MMA Dre" Huynh and Mike "The Mobster" Gomez. Mike is a aspiring MMA fighter out of Stockton California currently fighting in amateur.

To kick things off, Mike a Stockton native expresses his excitement for Nick Diaz's return to the octagon. Diaz will square off against Robbie Lawler in a rematch of their clash 17-years ago. Diaz got the victory in their first fight but will a five year layoff prove too much against Lawler at UFC 266? #NickDiaz

Fighter pay has been a hot button issue in the MMA community. UFC fighters reportedly take home about 18% of the revenue the company generates. Other pro leagues offer their athletes closer to a 50-50 revenue split. Is this a sustainable business model for Dana White and the UFC? Should fighters consider the idea of collectively bargaining to ensure a more financially stable future in the ever growing sport? #UFC

The UFC Heavyweight division has an influx of amazing talent but tons of confusion. Francis Ngannou beat Stipe Miocic for the title back in March. Three months later, Ciryl Gane beat Derrick Lewis for the interim crown. Currently Ngannou and Gane is being billed as the next fight. This has rubbed former champion Miocic the wrong way as he seeks a rematch with Ngannou. Meanwhile Jon Jones looks to potentially move to heavyweight and Ngannou is vying for that challenge. What is the future of the division moving forward? #MMA

We close out by talking Ariel Helwani's departure from ESPN. Will this be better for the sport or worse in the long run? Was this all Dana White's fault or does Helwani share some of the blame?

It's once again time to Bust the Slump and enjoy another episode of the Slumpbuster podcast! Joining us this week is Huseyin "The Brain" Aksu of the Fantasy Couch Fantasy Football Community. On this episode Ju-Ju & Mr. Couch breakdown the wide receiver position and how fantasy drafters should strategize the position in 2021. #FantasyFootball #FantasyFootballAdvice #FantasyFootballPodcast

Keeping up the trend of our other rankings podcast, Ju-Ju gives his tiers for Mr. Couch to reacts.

Set & Forget : Justin Jefferson had an outstanding rookie campaign, amassing over 1400 yards. However, Jefferson is not locked into the top tier according to Ju-Ju. Is this an area of oversight or are there legitimate question marks for Jefferson in Minnesota? Someone we love is Terry McLaurin but can Ryan Fitzpatrick elevate him to a true leader at the position?

Quality Starters: Julio Jones getting traded to Tennessee will undoubtedly have great benefit to the Titans on their path to the Super Bowl. While it is of great benefit to the Titans, how does this affect Jones and A.J. Brown owners?

Match-up Based: The Carolina wide receiver core produced two Top-24 wide receivers last season in Robby Anderson and D.J. Moore. The Panthers made the decision to move on from Teddy Bridgewater in favor of Sam Darnold. How does Darnold affect both Moore and Anderson? Niners wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk has seen a rise in his average draft position. Should fantasy owners pursue Aiyuk or is Deebo Samuel the true value in San Francisco's passing game?

Sleepers: Denver finds themselves in the midst of a quarterback competition. The recently acquired Bridgewater is battling incumbent start Drew Locke. Both Lock and Bridgewater have their favorite targets between Courtland Sutton and Jerry Jeudy. Regardless of who wins the starting quarterback job, who is the Broncos' wide receiver to own?

Fantasy Journeymen: CeeDee Lamb and Amari Cooper are sure to be high-end performers in any lineup this season. Is there room for a third in the form of Michael Gallup? Can Marquise Brown truly earn his nickname and play like Hollywood Brown in Baltimore?

It's once again time to Bust the Slump and enjoy another episode of the Slumpbuster podcast! Joining us this week is J in the Bay of the "Jay in the Bay" YouTube Channel. Ju-Ju & Jay on this one discuss all things NFC West and primarily the San Francisco 49ers. #49ers

In the first segment of the show the guys talk Josh Rosen's recent release. Rosen was the 10th overall selection by the Arizona Cardinals in 2018. Rosen publicly stated post-draft that nine mistakes were taken in front of him. In the years that followed, Rosen has been traded by the Arizona Cardinals and release by the Dolphins, Buccaneers and, most recently, the 49ers. Does the former first round selection still have an NFL future? #Niners

Next order of business we discuss the NFC West, starting with the San Francisco 49ers. The Niners selected North Dakota State quarterback Trey Lance third overall in the 2021 NFL Draft. Niners fans got to see their first taste of Lance with a mixed pre-season performance. Does the good outweigh the bad in terms of his quarterback competition with Jimmy Gaoppolo? Who should the Niners start in 2021, Lance or Garoppolo? #TreyLance

The Niners have tough competition if they hope to grab that division crown. They will have to go through the Cardinals, Rams and Seahawks. The Cardinals enter an important year for coach Kliff Kingsbury. Can Kyler Murray and the Cardinals get to the playoffs to buy Kingsbury another year in Arizona? The Rams made a huge trade for Matthew Stafford, does this make 2021 Super Bowl or Bust in Los Angeles? The Seahawks won the division last year but had a troubled offseason stemming from trade speculation around Russell Wilson. With Jamal Adams resigned and Wilson seemingly healthy, can the Seahawks repeat?

It's once again time to Bust the Slump and enjoy another episode of the Slumpbuster podcast! Joining us this week is Joe Morley of Joe Morley Sports and the Founder of the Warzone Sports Network. Ju-Ju & Joe talk some of the biggest stories in Major League Baseball and the NFL.

We kickoff the show talking about the battle for the NL West crown. While the Dodgers have added some huge pieces to defend their World Series title, they still trail the San Francisco Giants in the division. Can the Giants hang on as they chase their first playoff birth since 2016? Does the addition of Max Scherzer signal the end of Trevor Bauer's time with the Dodgers? #Dodgers #SFGiants

Next up we continue our NFL divisional preview with a look at the AFC West. The Broncos are in the midst of a quarterback competition between Drew Lock and Teddy Bridgewater but is either quarterback good enough to elevate the Broncos in the standings? A lot of expectations are on the Chargers and second year quarterback Justin Herbert, can they live up to the hype? Raider Nation will welcome a home crowd for the first time into Allegiant stadium in Las Vegas but will Jon Gruden get his team to the playoffs in his fourth season since returning to the sidelines? The Chiefs have run through this division in recent years but is there any reason to project a decline? #NFL

It's once again time to Bust the Slump and enjoy another episode of the Slumpbuster podcast! Joining us this week is Chris McConnell of the Roto Bros Fantasy Football Podcast. On this episode Ju-Ju & Chris breakdown NFL headlines and give you the fantasy knowledge you need to win your league! #FantasyFootball

We kick things off with a quick breakdown of episode one of Hard Knocks. Mike McCarthy, CeeDee Lamb and Micah Parsons all got their time with the cameras. What has been the best parts of the show so far?

In our next segment we give our official tier rankings of the Top-50 running backs according to average draft position. Is there any reasons to fear selecting Najee Harris despite a depleted Steelers offensive line? Is D'Andre Swift the breakout candidate fantasy owners needs despite playing for the Lions? Can guys like Jonathan Taylor and Saquon Barkley be dependable week-in and week-out to be consider set and forget starters? Chris gives his thoughts on the faults in the handcuff strategy as well. #FantasyFootballAdvice

To close out the show we continue our NFL division breakdown series by taking a look at the NFC South. Did the Falcons do enough to compete for a wild card and how will Kyle Pitts look in his rookie year? Are we sure that Sam Darnold is the quarterback upgrade that the Panthers sought when they traded for him? With all 22 starters returning, is anyone stopping Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers? Drew Brees is gone but can Jameis Winston and Sean Payton still give Saints fans a reason to believe? #NFL

It's once again time to Bust the Slump and enjoy another episode of the Slumpbuster podcast! Joining us this week is hip hop recording artist Anthony Jaramillo aka Bigger Than Goliath. Anthony & Ju-Ju talk some of the biggest stories in rap, the NBA and the NFL. #DennisSchroder

When Dennis Schroder entered NBA Free Agency, he had envisioned a different outcome. Schroder signed a one-year $5.9M contract to play with the Boston Celtics in the 2021-2022 NBA season. This follows turning down a reported $84M contract to stay in Los Angeles and play with the Lakers. Schroder finished second in 6th man of the year voting back in 2019 with Oklahoma City. Can he provide that same spark to a Celtics lineup that was eliminated in the first round this past season? #BostonCeltics

We continue our NFL division breakdown series with the AFC South in this episode. The Jacksonville Jaguars made some big splash additions with Urban Meyer and Trevor Lawrence but what will their final record be come seasons end? The Houston Texans are still dealing with the Deshaun Watson situation, can they overcome the adversity in the locker room to surprise NFL fans? Indianapolis will start the year without their starting quarterback Carson Wentz, can the Colts deep roster sustain them in Wentz absence? The Titans won the division last year but didn't settle, picking up future hall of fame wide receiver Julio Jones. Can the Titans repeat as champions behind their potent offense? #NFL

It's once again time to Bust the Slump and enjoy another episode of the Slumpbuster podcast! Joining us this week is standup comedian Steven Puga. Puga & Ju-Ju talk some of the biggest stories in the NFL & College Football.

Deshaun Watson has been a controversial story the entire NFL offseason. It started when Watson's camp expressed a desire to be traded from the Houston Texans. In the wake of Watson's trade request came a flurry of sexual misconduct accusations. In total, Watson was facing accusations from 40 plus women. Watson has since rejoined the Texans in training camp but still wants out of Houston. Teams that have been linked to Watson included, the Philadelphia Eagles, Carolina Panthers, Miami Dolphins and more. Should Howie Roseman and the Eagles be making a big push acquire the disgruntled but troubled superstar? #DeshaunWatson

The Eagles are no stranger to moves at the quarterback position. Following a disappointing season in Philly, the Eagles made the choice to trade away 2016 first round pick Carson Wentz. In Wentz first training camp with the Indianapolis Colts, he has suffered a foot injury that will keep him out of action 5-12 week. What should the Colts do in the wake of another Wentz injury?

In this episode Ju-Ju & Puga give their preview of the NFC East. Will Jalen Hurd be able to establish himself as the quarterback of the future in Philadelphia? Can the Dallas Cowboys live up to the talented roster they do have? Is this Daniel Jones swan song season with the Giants as the seat continues to warm under Joe Judge? Can the Washington Football team led by the best front seven in football defend their division crown?

To close, Texas and Oklahoma shook the college football landscape when they decided to enter the SEC beginning in 2025. Can the Longhorns find new found glory under Steve Sarkisian in the most competitive conference in college football? Does the NCAA's NIL rules and reported playoff expansion provide opportunity for a more balance in college football? #HookEm

It's once again time to Bust the Slump and enjoy another episode of the Slumpbuster podcast! Joining us this week is Zach Buck Burl of the BOTA Sports Podcast. Zack & Ju-Ju talk some of the biggest stories from the NBA, MLB & NFL on this episode. The Boston Celtics off-season began with a huge announcement by Danny Ainge. Ainge announced he would be stepping down as the teams general manager and Brad Stevens will be replacing him. To replace Stevens as head coach the Celtics hired Ime Udoka, a former assistant with the Brooklyn Nets. Several former Celtics rejoined the team, including veteran big men Al Horford and Enes Kanter. In free agency the Celtics lost names such as Evan Fournier and Kemba Walker. Will the Celtics be able to compete in 2021 and beyond given these changes? Is Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown potentially on the trade block? What move can the Celtics still make to get better before opening tipoff? #Celtics

Last season when the Boston Red Sox traded away former MVP Mookie Betters, fans thought they were in store for a long rebuild. However, the Red Sox had other plans in 2021 as they currently hold the lead in a competitive AL East. With the Blue Jays, Rays and Yankees trailing them can Boston hold onto their lead? Are they dark horse World Series favorites coming out to the American League? #RedSox

The AFC East is not going to be a cakewalk division this year as every team in the conference improved but who is going to come out on top in 2021? Will Robert Saleh and the Jets get the most out of rookie Zach Wilson to turn some heads in New York? Is Bill Belichick poised to remind people why he is considered the greatest coach of all time? Is it Tua Time in Miami as the sophomore quarterback hopes to rebound from a lackluster start to his NFL career? The Buffalo Bills just rewarded Josh Allen with a huge contract but can they surpass their AFC rivals and make it to their fifth Super Bowl in franchise history? Stay tuned for our predictions! #NFL

It's once again time to Bust the Slump and enjoy another episode of the Slumpbuster podcast! Joining us this week is Taylor Mathis of BetKarma, the ChiSportsChick instagram page and the Brunch and Ball Podcast. Taylor & Ju-Ju talk some of the biggest stories from NBA free agency, the MLB trade deadline and the NFL.

There was a lot of action in the windy city when free agency began Monday. The Chicago Bulls completely overhauled their roster with several splashy moves. Their first big acquisition was Lonzo Ball from the New Orleans Pelicans. Lavar's eldest has slowly improved over the last three seasons and hopes to excel in the house that Jordan built. The following day, the Bulls executed a sign and trade with the San Antonio Spurs for former all-star Demar Derozan. Ball, Derozan, Zach Levine and Nikola Vucevic create a solid starting five for the Bulls but is it enough to make them contenders? #ChicagoBulls

Additionally in Taylor's current place of residency, the Phoenix Suns agreed to bring back Chris Paul on a 4-year $120M deal. The contract has a club option for 2024. Are the Suns still a threat in the Western Conference?

Next up, we allow Taylor to lament the mass exodus in the Chicago Cubs locker room. The Cubs had a flurry of trades at the MLB Trade Deadline, moving stars Kris Bryant, Anthony Rizzo, Craig Kimbrel and Javier Baez. Did the Cubs get enough in prospect return to justify this fire sale? Would Cubs fans be okay if they had another 100 year drought? #ChicagoCubs

We close with the continuation of our NFL division previews. On this episode we give our predictions for the NFC North. Will Dan Campbell bring a real Lion to practice? Can Mike Zimmer get the Vikings back to their playoff form? How long will Matt Nagy be able to keep Justin Fields off the playing field? Does the Aaron Rodgers drama change anything about how we view the Green Bay Packers in 2021? #AaronRodgers

On this episode Ju-Ju & Chris breakdown NFL headlines and give you the fantasy knowledge you need to win your league! #FantasyFootball

We kick things off discussing the news of Carson Wentz's broken foot. The injury is expected to put Wentz out of action 5-12 weeks. In his place, the Colts will most likely have a competition between Jacob Eason and Sam Ehlinger. How does Wentz being out affect the other weapons on the Colts, including T.Y. Hilton, Michael Pittman and Paris Campbell? Does Wentz still have value in dynasty leagues moving forward? #CarsonWentz

Our next segment we give you a tier based ranking of the top-36 QB's according to average draft position. Are Josh Allen and Kyler Murray set it and forget it type starters? Can Ben Roethlisberger be more than just a match-up based play? Who is the best sleeper currently on the board, Daniel Jones or Tua Tagovailoa? #FantasyFootballAdvice

In our closing segment we give our record predictions for the AFC North. Will the Ravens find a passing game in Lamar Jackson's fourth season? Will the Browns take a step back given new expectations? Does a Skinny Ben make the Steelers contenders again? Can the Bengals improve despite not developing their offensive line more for Joe Burrow? #NFL
