Patrick Mahomes is the first quarterback to lead his team to back-to-back Super Bowl wins since Tom Brady, but that merely tying greatness wasn’t on his mind as the confetti fell around him. A Hot mic caught the quarterback already talking about a three-peat before they even took the stage to celebrate the win. Antonio Pierce shared his new rules for the Las Vegas Raiders to stop Mahomes from reaching his lofty goal. Finishing with the NBA, Kevin Durant answered a question regarding why he chose the Brooklyn Nets over the New York Knicks after leaving the Golden State Warriors years back in free agency.

When it comes to superstitious athletes, Major League Baseball’s players are up there with the most “stitious” of them all. Any small change is met with disagreement, as is the case with the league’s new uniforms that are designed by Nike and produced by Fanatics. Criticized for being “thin” and “t-shirt-like”, enough stink has been raised about them that the Players Association is asking for swift change before Opening Day in about six weeks.

At the 2024 NBA All-Star Game, there appeared to be a bromance on display between international talents Nikola Jokic and Luka Doncic. The Joker answered a question about possibly playing with Luka one day, and the Association has been “mum”. Monday touched on the three-point contest between the NBA’s Steph Curry and the WNBA’s Sabrina Ionescu, but the guys hadn’t gotten to Kenny Smith’s controversial comments that were made on TNT. This sparks a back-and-forth on the show about whether “The Jet” was out of line or not.

Another player looking to avoid the tag is Saquon Bakley who was reluctant to sign it last year. Calvin thinks that the New York Giants should do right by the 2018 first-rounder and let him test free agency. One of the last running backs to actually get paid, Nick Chubb was also in that draft class and holds a hefty cap figure in 2024, lending to the thought that he could be a cap casualty. Out West, the Denver Broncos have a number of personnel decisions to make, and Calvin gives who he’s signing, trading, or cutting.

With Victor Wembanyama in San Antonio, the Spurs have one of the biggest names in the NBA, and with it comes brands and attention reserved for the LeBrons and Jordans of the game.

In the NFL, the franchise tag window is officially here and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have hinted at their intentions by allowing the contracts of Baker Mayfield and Mike Evans to expire despite carrying heavier cap hits.

Russell Wilson was part of the NFL offseason buzz two years ago and, after a rough stint with the Denver Broncos, is a focus point once again.

In Hour 2, the spotlight is on the coaches in basketball, starting with the now-former head coach of the Brooklyn Nets, Jacque Vaugh, who was fired a year after receiving a significant extension. Calvin doesn’t think Vaughn was given a fair shake after the Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving debacle. After listener comments on the NBA All-Star Game, Calvin turns to the college ranks where St. Johns coach Rick Pitino delivered a classic postgame meltdown after another loss from his squad.

Every year we build up the NBA All-Star Game with all the hype of the Super Bowl, and over the last decade, we constantly complain about the game the day after. The 2024 iteration is more of the same with poor effort defensively, nonsense on offense, and another ridiculous final score, a record-breaking one this time with the first 200-point game. One of Calvin’s favorite takeaways was the three-point contest between Steph Curry and Sabrina Ionescu, but it is only a matter of time before that gets watered down too.

To close out the week, there are other key stories around sports to get to, including in the MLB where Atlanta Braves star Ronald Acuna Jr. is attempting to leverage a new deal out of the franchise without actually possessing any leverage. On the links, Tiger Woods withdrew from the Genesis Invitational just partway through the second round, putting his comments about a “busier schedule” in doubt. Back in the NBA, Tyronn Lue got hit with a fine for insinuating that the officials were cheating, and Calvin is supporting the Association.
