The New York Jets remain the sole winless team in the NFL as they continue to find ways to lose week in and week out.

Our halftime topic this week has to do with New York City suing various social me...

Last week, Little League International put out a statement about betting on Little League World Series games. Apparently, there are offshore gambling sites that allow for such a thing, and of course, degenerates will be degenerates. Will, LeeJay, and Erik assemble to discuss the situation. Are the Mets back? The Dummies aren't convinced even after the Mets took 2 of 3 from the Mariners over t...

Of course, the 2 Dummies absolutely had to spend some time discussing Terry Bollea aka the immortal Hulk Hogan.  As for the sports side of things, the Dummies begin somewhere they haven'...

It was a mixed bag for New York Mets fans this past weekend. On Saturday, the Mets retired David Wright's No. 5 in an emotional pregame ceremony that reminded fans of his greatness, but also what could've been.

While it's not official, Mike Brown is set to become the next New York Knicks head coach. He wasn't exactly on the top of anyone's list when this search began, but he will lead the Knicks going forward. Despite a healthy winning record, some people believe Brown isn't as good of a coach as that record indicates. The 2 Dummies dive in. With NBA free agency in full swing, we exam...

There used to be a time when the NBA Draft was much-see TV. Now? Not so much. Will barely watched it last week, while LeeJay didn't watch it at all. Still, there was much to discuss this week about the draft, why the Brooklyn Nets did what they did, R.J. Luis, and some general NBA notes. Our halftime topic this week had to do with July 4th. We'll leave it at that! On the other side of th...

But the Mets have hit a rough patch, and the starting pitching is a big reason why. Since LeeJay missed last week's episode, we had to give him time this week to spit some bars about the current situation...
