I give my thoughts ahead of game 1 of the Finals tonight. From my perspective, this is going to be Miami testing out different looks to give Jokic to at least confuse the Nuggets as a straight-up contest looks doomed in my opinion.

I am sure the excuses will be out regarding Tatum rolling his ankle in the first minute but straight up the Celtics got punked in their own building with a Game 7 they had no business seeing. Jaylen Brown doing his best Jordan Poole impression did not help matters either. I break down the NBA and Stanley Cup Finals with my initial thoughts.

I give my thoughts on Game 7 between the Heat and Celtics tonight as well as why I think the narrative has gotten out of hand with where people think this is a done deal.

Tonight we dive right into the latest playoff debacle with the Sixers and the "MVP" Joel Embiid no showing game 7 against the Celtics and throwing his team under the bus.

Plenty of things to talk about from this past weekend so we'll cover early observations from baseball as well as the fallout from the NCAA Women's National Title game but the bulk of today's show is on WWE. I will discuss the impending sale of the company to Endeavor which owns UFC as well as my thoughts on the entire card. I am sure that many people will disagree with me but I will try to walk through the thought process of what went down nonetheless. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle...
I give my thoughts on the upcoming MLB season and where I expect most teams to end up. First and foremost I dive into the rule changes that are in effect for the season and how I expect that to have a major impact on how teams will be able to separate themselves from the pack moving forward.

I take a look at the West region where I have not heard nearly enough talk about UCLA which is fine by me as this is definitely an area where we can explore some theory options with respect to the brackets. Plus I give some of my thoughts on the betting lines for the opening round matchups. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/fantasy-throwdown-podcast/donations
I break down both the East and South regions and I will tell you my thoughts on the popular Duke chalk brackets I have seen floating around since the weekend. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/fantasy-throwdown-podcast/donations

That was one of the worst All-Star weekends in recent memory and while Mac McClung is a nice story it highlights the sheer lack of buzz surrounding the events themselves. I have a solution to fix All-Star Weekend and also provide a tournament format that should spark interest from the viewing public again.

I discuss the aftermath of the Superbowl including what did and did not surprise me (seriously did anyone bother to vet this turf beforehand?). Also, my father and I get into the NFL offseason hiring cycle and how dysfunctional it remains despite the league reminding teams how inept they are at it.

We are at Superbowl Sunday and I have a pretty clear lean on how I expect the game to play out. Based on the script I have in my mind I will be pretty heavy on the rushing game for the Eagles and hope that Reid, Bienemy, Mahomes and Kelce have one more rabbit to pull out of their hat.

The game is tomorrow and I break down which player props I am most interested in pursuing based on how I expect the game to play out in most scenarios. Obviously certain things can impact the outcome but I expect both teams to play towards their win conditions which makes it easier to break down which props make sense to take stands on.

I give my thoughts on the fights and which bets on the fight card have me most interested in pursuing. I do think there is an avenue for Volkanovski to win but it will be a tall order even if he fights a clean fight for the majority of the 25 allotted minutes.

Kyrie Irving has been traded to the Dallas Mavericks and the Nets superteam era is all but over as I expect KD to be gone by the trading deadline.

My dad and I talk through the Chiefs' victory tonight and what transpired earlier in the day in the NFC Championship while setting our sights on the big game in two weeks. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/fantasy-throwdown-podcast/donations
I will not sugarcoat this but I doubt Mahomes is anywhere near 100% and that the media is being incredibly naive in buying the narrative the Chiefs have been putting out there regarding how healthy that ankle is. That being said I cover how the Chiefs can win this game as well as the X-factor that nobody is talking about when it comes to the NFC Championship game.

Long story short if this fight was last year I take Glover without hesitation. I got burned by him on the Jan Blachowicz fight, I was on the Jiri side of the fight and now we have Glover against another rising star in the division and he can win this fight as well. However, Glover is 43 and I will tell you exactly why I am almost on the fence about avoiding this fight entirely from a betting perspective.

We have a number of news items from the UFC to cover but that debacle from Brandon Staley and the Chargers has to be talked about. I am tired of talking about this coach but it is unavoidable given the nonsense we continue to see him perpetrate against our eyeballs.
