Today's cast: Dan, Stugotz, Izzy, Chris, Jeremy, Jessica, and Tony.

Then, Stugotz leaves to go talk to the QB who beat Miami this weekend, Dan is frustrated with the Shipping ...

Dec 04, 2024•48 min•Transcript available on Metacast Not since the Greco-Roman period has sculpture mattered this much in sports. And Jerry Saltz — the Pulitzer Prize-winning senior art critic for New York magazine — has zero idea who Dwyane Wade is. Which is precisely why we asked the erstwhile Jewish Cowboy (we'll explain) to evaluate our athletic Bronze Age, from Michael Jordan to Cristiano Ronaldo. And that's before we get to "I Can't Believe It's Not Pablo (Butter on Gasbag, 2024)." Plus: the conscious uncoupling of art and money, sex workers...

Dec 03, 2024•43 min•Transcript available on Metacast Mike and Lucy are still yelling at each other about the University of Miami's merits for the College Football Playoff, and it's time for their closing arguments. How much does recency bias factor in? Is Miami's best win over a 7-5 team? Should Alabama AND South Carolina be out? Do you know ball? Is Syracuse better than 'Bama? DO YOU KNOW BALL? Did you know Syracuse lost to 3-9 Stanford? DO YOU KNOW BALL?!?!?!?!?! Then, it's time for Stugotz's Weekend Observations tackling Andy Reid, the Bears go...

Dec 03, 2024•42 min•Transcript available on Metacast Today's cast: Dan, Stugotz, Greg Cote, Chris, Billy, Lucy, and Mike. Even after a high scoring Monday Night Football game last night, the crew begins in the only logical place: flag planting. Greg has his own takes after yesterday's discussion, and Mike wants to get back into it now that he has Bomani Jones on his side. Is planting a flag the ultimate sign of disrespect? Is Dan trying to be the dice man? Does it fall on the coaches? Is flag planting about the line of disrespect, adulthood, or bo...

Is that a normal coping mechanism...? Then, why are we more upset at college-aged players for planting flags than coaches for escalating and police officers for pepper spraying the players?
