Recapping Wins over Paraguay and Uruguay for the USMNT Daniel Robertson joins the show this week to discuss the USMNT’s 2-1 win over Paraguay and 5-1 win over Uruguay in their final matches of 2025. What do the wins mean for the team’s 2026 World Cup aspirations, and what players helped their case to be on the roster next June? Tune in to hear Tyler Kern and Daniel Robertson break it all down. 

Norm is just wondering whether Cowboys fans should actually be excited after that Monday Night Football beatdown — or if we should all calm down because, well… it was the Raiders. Dak looks sensational, the offense is rolling, the defense finally remembered football exists, and suddenly the playoff window isn’t totally boarded shut. Plus, Norm takes a chaotic stroll through the wild world of colle...

Bri and Ziggy talk about the trailer for the Taylor Swift Documentary and why the Swifties are upset. Yes that was a real conversation. YouTube Tv and ESPN are back and Ziggy is rejoicing or ranting, can’t tell the difference nowadays. Ziggy likes Scottish ale or does he. Nico is gone, is Dirk the answer to bring back Luka? Ziggy doesn’t believe you can blackout from just beer Bri begs to differ a...

Today on Just Wondering, Norm wakes up and chooses violence — politely — by asking Cowboy fans a simple, soul-shaking question: Do you realize how catastrophically important tonight’s game is? Win, and hope survives. Lose, and we’re talking mock drafts, emotional support queso, and whether tanking is a strategy or a coping mechanism. Norm also wonders how in the name of burnt orange pride we’ve ar...

On this episode of The Clubhouse Podcast, Rob spends the first few minutes flying solo and battling technical gremlins before Alex arrives just in time to prove microphones are still optional. From NFL chaos and breaking news to college football spirals and bizarre broadcast decisions (looking at you, “reality show Sunday Night Football”), the guys dive into the week in sports with equal parts out...

Norm Hitzges is just wondering what’s next for the Dallas Mavericks after the Luka and Nico departures—and how colleges keep cutting massive checks to fired football coaches. From rebuilding around Cooper Flagg and Derek Lively to jaw-dropping buyouts like Jimbo Fisher’s $77 million payday, Norm breaks down how sports franchises and universities handle their biggest (and priciest) mistakes. The Ma...

Ziggy and Bri talk about NFL trades. NBA temper tantrums. Another coach has been fired. Michael Jackson biopic trailer, is Bri from Gary Indiana? Cans are better than glass but product placement. Betting scandals are starting to become a normal thing. Will civil suits begin? Commanders new stadium name possibility and is it roller derby or not? Seriously.

Norm Hitzges is just wondering if the Mavericks fan base can finally start to heal now that GM Nico Harrison is gone. From trading Luka Doncic to the Lakers to the injuries that derailed the dream, Norm dives into how one decision turned Dallas upside down. He revisits the highs of Nico’s tenure—the Finals run, savvy trades, and gutsy calls—and the crash that followed. Now, with Luka thriving in L...

On this episode of Just Wondering, Norm Hitzges sits down with longtime Texas Rangers beat reporter Evan Grant to examine one of the most pivotal offseasons the franchise has faced in years. With Bruce Bochy and Mike Maddox gone, Skip Schumacher stepping in, and payroll reductions looming, the Rangers must decide whether they are still building to contend—or preparing to reset. Evan offers candid...

Today, Norm takes a deep breath, stares directly into the abyss, and asks the question Cowboys fans probably should be asking: how exactly is Dallas going to pay for anyone next season? With the salary cap projected at $307 million and the Cowboys already basically using that to cover nine players and a pile of dead money, things are… well… tight. Norm breaks down the massive cap hits coming for D...

Welcome back to The Clubhouse Podcast, where the countdown froze, Alex disappeared into the digital void, and Don defends “It’s a Small World” like it’s the Alamo. Rob hates the ride. Don says it’s historic. Alex just tries to stay connected to the internet. Once everyone’s systems reboot, the guys dive into the World Series, NFL madness, unexpected movie rampages, and a K-Pop Demon Hunter interve...

Norm is back and just thrilled to talk about the Rangers losing yet another franchise brain and the Cowboys turning Monday Night Football into a group exercise in “How Not to Football.” We break down Mike Maddox walking out the same door Bochy did, the Cowboys somehow forgetting that tackling is part of the sport, and Dallas making trade deadline moves like they just discovered Monopoly money. Pul...

Ashlea’s back!!! Ziggy shows his disgust for the Dodgers winning the World Series. Can you have goosebumps and be nauseous at the same time? Ashlea doesn’t like daylight savings time. They discuss NCAA’s big news that’s been swept under the rug. CFP Rankings is wide open and the NCAA loves the parody, Ashlea does not. NFL wins losses and question marks. Ziggy and sours are starting to become a thi...

Norm’s got a Monday doubleheader: first, a public-service announcement that the “2–5” Arizona Cardinals are the most annoying good bad team you’ll see all year; second, a therapy session about the Rangers’ brain drain—Bruce Bochy already gone, and now pitching whisperer Mike Maddux exits stage left to Anaheim. We break down why Jacoby “No Picks” Brissett is the exact backup QB you don’t want to fa...

Norm rolls into Halloween wondering what the Cowboys should really do at the trade deadline: buy band-aids for a busted defense or stockpile draft picks and live to fight another day. Along the way, he side-eyes Jerry Jones’ “hundred-billion-dollar” gas talk, floats some pragmatic (and spicy) trade chips, and delivers the line of the day on Mozzie Smith and a steak dinner. Then it’s off to college...

Norm Hitzges breaks down the Cowboys’ embarrassing loss to the Denver Broncos — a game so one-sided it has him wondering if Dallas will ever beat Denver again. With sharp insight and signature wit, Norm dissects how the Cowboys collapsed on both sides of the ball, from a defense that forgot how to tackle to a rookie corner who got picked apart all afternoon. He dives into Dak Prescott’s rough outi...
