"A Glorious Mess"

College football delivered two cracker jack games on Monday afternoon and evening. Czabe welcomes AARON TORRES of Fox Sports Radio to the pod, to discuss.

Sanders Stuff The Dolphins Stockings!

How does a 5-banger do ya, on Christmas Eve? The Dolphins dagger the Cowboys in the game of the week. Two lasting images from the game that stick out in Czabe's mind.

No We're Not Doing A "Black vs. White" NFL Game

What is wrong with some people. Rashard Mendenhall decided to put on his stupid Monday and go viral. I chat with my guy BRYANT HATCHER about why his idea is totally against the point of football - and sports! Cam Newton is making sense, even though his hats aren't. P-Value. Miles Bridges can't get into Canada. Bud Light is back! No Days Off! Scariest dream I've ever had. MORE.....

It's coach season in the NFL, and right now more than.a few guys are more scared than a prized 8-point buck at the start of whitetail rifle season.

Everybody Has Their Price

A remarkable 48 hour span in sports to start the weekend, first with Jon Rahm eating his words and joining the LIV Tour for a reported 400-600M!

Hey You Kids! Stopping Hitting The Ball So Far!

In the ultimate "Get Off My Lawn" bureaucratic move, the governing bodies of the game of golf have decided to "do something" about distance in golf. Too bad, it really won't do anything but lead to lawsuits and arguments. JOHN RONIS and BUDDY CHRISTENSEN join me today, to discuss. Also, will Andy survive on this podcast?

Meta Quest 3 Has Made Me A Believer in AR

And by that, I don't mean "Aaron Rodgers"... I mean "Augmented Reality." WOW.

Director of Security, My Ass!

Czabe goes SOLO today, and runs down his "32 Things He Thinks He Thinks" (h/t Peter King!) about the NFL after Week 13's Sunday Slate. If the Eagles meathead isn't fired, like the video kid, then the NFL will continue to show it's ass. The Jordan Love decision is over. He's getting paid. Amazing futility stat for Patriots. Somehow, I agree with Zach Wilson being a bit of a bitch. And LOTS more...... Our Sponsors: * Check out Hims: https://hims.com/CZABE * Check out Indeed: https:// indeed.com/CZ...

The CFP Era Ends In A Gordian Knot

I hope everybody enjoyed the bickering, because next year with 12 teams (and someday with 16 or 20!) we won't have this much "fun". Florida State gets done dirty (say some) while Georgia is steaming as well. ANDY POLLIN joins me, and does a bit of a moonwalk on his NCAA = Slavery stance. We also talk about the absurdity of SI.com using AI to write stories by fake writers. Plus a fun Christmas game called "Whammed!" MORE....

Buyer's Remorse in Carolina

David Tepper is worth $20B but hasn't the slightest idea how to run a good football team. Today, Czabe and CHARCH break down this moron's press conference answer on how Young was chosen.

Tony Romo Is Falling Apart

It's unfair to nit-pick every aspect of an NFL broadcaster or analysts 3 hour run on the mic ever single week, but it's become apparent that Tony Romo is not just not getting any better, he's getting inexplicably worse. Sunday was the latest example. HATCH & RONIS were lured into the Kia (Not)-Mini-Van to talk about a YouTuber who did better at explaining the "Tush Push" than legacy sports media, should Jon Rahm jump at the $600M reportedly on the table from the LIV Tour, and MORE......

The Thumb Is On The Scale For Philly

I mean, I hate to say it, but I'll say it. The Eagles are damn good. But the league clearly wants them BACK against KC. And they'll likely get it. Thanks in part to the unstoppable Tush Push and ice-cold assassin Jake Elliot, whose 60 yarder in the damn rain saved the Eagles asses. ANDY POLLIN joins me to discuss why HE thinks the "old" college football amateur model was "slavery" (it wasn't, but he's pretty sure about it) and who doesn't have an extra grand around to donate to Wolfpack Football...

Poor MVS. Once a ball dropper, always a ball dropper. Happens to the best of them - occassionally - but in his case, it's the YIPS. My guy BRYANT HATCHER joins me to talk about his experience playing WR in college. Why can't anybody stop the Eagles nuclear weapon. Azinger out at NBC/Golf Channel.

John Madden Must Be Rolling In His Grave

Czabe welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN to discuss why NFL coaches and QB's must absolutely hate the public availability of the "All-22" film now. The Bills over-react and fire Ken Dorsey, and yet Czabe is apoplectic that the Packers are constantly UNDER-reacting. The boys have an audacious NYE plan for Vikings-Packers, but three daunting wildcards stand in their way. MORE.....
