Colin’s joined by Danny Parkins, host of “Breakfast Ball” on FS1!

They start with Colin sharing commuter stories from their time in Chicago and why they love commuting via train and plane and Colin explains why a business class seat to Europe is his “happy place” (3:30).

They pivot to the NBA and why the Thunder and T-Wolves series will struggle to pull ratings in a league with incredible parity, but Danny counters that long term it will be good for the league and pleads for an earlier tip-off (10:30). They highlight Anthony Edwards lack of shots taken in Game 1, contrasting his lack of assertiveness with past stars like Michael Jordan and the lack of urgency shown by modern players (15:30).

They discuss why NIL money is funneling worldwide basketball talent back into American college basketball and why OKC would be best served using their stockpiled capital in the draft rather than trade it for an established player (26:15).

Colin proposes that Jalen Brunson has a chance to be the most popular Knicks player of all time but Danny argues that Clyde Frazier will retain that title and that Brunson is a “smidge” overrated (33:00).

They discuss the gender disparity embedded in the discourse about the Caitlin Clark vs Angel Reece rivalry, and why if there’s a bit of “hate” in a sports rivalry… it’s a GOOD thing (40:30).

They express their surprise that the NFL didn’t ban the “tush push” since it’s both bad television and will get players hurt (57:00).

Finally, they debate how long it will take for the influence of Ben Johnson’s coaching to show up on the field for Caleb Williams and whether it spells trouble if he struggles early in the season (1:06:15).

Colin’s top takes of the week!

First, Colin’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down the NFL schedule!

They start with a ridiculously easy schedule for the 49ers (3:30) and debate whether that gives Brock Purdy leverage in contract negotiations and whether Kyle Shannahan has been too involved with drafting (6:45).

They highlight the Chiefs schedule as being particularly brutal due to their weak offensive line and the elite pass rushes they’ll face (10:30) and the pressure NFC North teams will face (15:30).

Then, Colin’s joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight” to break down the NBA draft lottery

They start with the Mavericks landing the #1 overall pick despite long odds and the ability to draft Duke star Cooper Flagg, why the basketball gods just gave the Mavs possibly the greatest gift EVER and why the draft order couldn’t have gone better for the NBA (27:00).

They look at the Spurs, Thunder and Rockets as potential landing spots for Giannis and point to the results of the draft making the west even stronger compared to the east (33:00). Finally, they point to NIL giving top prospects the ability to take the better marketing of playing for blue chip college programs, and why recognizable domestic talents will help the NBA (37:30).

Colin’s joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight” to break down the Knicks beating the Celtics in Game 5 to go up 3-1 and the NBA draft lottery.

They start with a thrilling game 5 between the Knicks and Celtics and highlight a dominant performance by Jalen Brunson compared to a Celtics team that was completely out of rhythm outside of Jayson Tatum (4:00). Colin points to Brunson landing with the Knicks as the key to him breaking out as a superstar (7:00). Jason argues Brunson may be the best small guard in the league, and Colin puts him in a class with the best Knicks ever (9:15).

They discuss the Celtics poor ball movement and shot selection as what led to them losing, but give huge props to Jayson Tatum for his incredible performance prior to going down with an injury (16:00). They break down the ripple effects of Tatum’s injury on the Celtics future and whether they might be forced to blow up an aging roster if Tatum is out for a year (19:15).

Colin argues that the Knicks may be primed to be the dominant team in the East with the Celtics facing an uncertain future but Jason argues the Cavs and Pacers would like a word (22:00).

They pivot to the NBA draft lottery and the Mavericks landing the #1 overall pick despite long odds and the ability to draft Duke star Cooper Flagg, why the basketball gods just gave the Mavs possibly the greatest gift EVER and why the draft order couldn’t have gone better for the NBA (35:00).

They look at the Spurs, Thunder and Rockets as potential landing spots for Giannis and point to the results of the draft making the west even stronger compared to the east (41:00). Finally, they point to NIL giving top prospects the ability to take the better marketing of playing for blue chip college programs, and why recognizable domestic talents will help the NBA (45:00).

They start with the first American ever being named Pope and Colin asks Nick for his “Pope power rankings” (4:00), why it’s incredibly exciting to have an American pope (7:15), and why even agnostic people can lean on faith in a higher power during difficult times (9:00). Colin calls out Nick for looking like the Shroud of Turin, and they highlight their doppelgangers (15:30).

They pivot to the NBA and Colin’s right/wrong takes on Jayson Tatum and the Celtics (28:00), why it would be really great for the league if the Knicks won the series (34:00), and why the underdogs have been winning (36:00). Nick provides a lengthy professional poker analogy to explain what’s happening to the Celtics and their 3 point shooting (38:00) and Colin compares them to the Miami Dolphins (45:00).

They discuss why Draymond Green is given more leeway on technical fouls and physical play than any player ever, but also highlight his incredible value as a defender (54:00). They compare Draymond’s self awareness about the type of player he is to Shedeur Sanders lack of it. They argue Shedeur was never given an honest evaluation and point to the transactional nature of sports journalism as part of the reason for it (1:10:00).
