2 Dummies That Just Watch: A Sports Podcast Between Friends

The 2 Dummies are back for their first episode of 2025, and boy, do they have a lot to discuss regarding the Giants and Jets. Giants owner John Mara has decided to stay the course with Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll as the GM and head coach, respectively. But why? Will and LeeJay discuss this as the main topic of the show. Elsewhere, what's next for New York Jets? LeeJay isn't crazy about t...

Rickey Henderson was someone who was near and dear to the hearts of the 2 Dummies, so when we got word of his passing over the weekend, we took some time to start the show with our memories of the greatest base stealer of all time. This past Saturday was football heaven with 2 NFL games and 4 college football playoff games. But it all started Friday night with Notre Dame having a fairly easy time...

The 2 Dummies had a completely different format coming into this episode, but then The Athletic dropped a bombshell of an article about the clown show that is the New York Jets. We knew owner Woody Johnson was meddling, but The Athletic's article revealed it goes much, much deeper than we all previously thought. As usual, things are not much better on the other side of MetLife Stadium as the...

What was once thought as impossible became reality Sunday night as Juan Soto agreed to a record-breaking contract to join the New York Mets.

Our halftime topic dives into a somewhat touch subject as we discuss the aftemath of the United Healthcare CEO murder. On...

It's Major League Baseball hot stove season, and boy has it been slow. And that's because everyone seems to be waiting on Juan Soto to make a decision.

In other baseball chatter, the Dummies discu...

Last week, LeeJay said something about the Colts' Anthony Richardson that sparked an idea in Will. It's actually something the 2 Dummies have spoken about before. So, Will used some help from ChatGPT to guide our main segment this week about the NFL's current problem with underdeveloped quarterbacks. Elsewhere, we get into all the drama surrounding the local football teams as the Je...

Let's face it: The New York Football Giants are a complete mess right now. They lost to the lowly Carolina Panthers last Sunday in Germany. Daniel Jones is awful. And Brain Daboll and Joe Schoen appear clueless. The 2 Dummies break it all down and tell you what they're seeing with the franchise. Of course, the Jets aren't much better and have many issues of their own. So, a lot of f...

We've welcomed a new Dummy into the fold as Larry Fleisher joins Will in this episode to discuss the Yankees and what went down in the World Series, the aftermath of it all, Juan Soto, and free agent targets. As a sports freelance writer, Larry has been covering the Yankees for close to two decades.  We also chat a little bit about the Nets and St. John's men's basketball.  No times...

We're through the first two months of the NFL season, so we thought it would be a great time for the 2 Dummies to look back at the storylines they were focused on heading into the season. That's our main topic this week, and let's just say they got some things right, and some things wrong. Elsewhere, we start the show discussing the World Series (the Yankees hadn't lost yet), b...

2024 turned out to be an unexpected year for the New York Mets. Despite the odds in late May/early June, the team went on a memorable run, made the playoffs on the last day of the regular season, and took the Dodgers to six games in the NLCS. Now what?

We also get into some NBA with the season starting Tuesday night, and Will has something to say about the New York Liberty winning their first WNBA ti...

It's been quite the week for the New York Jets. The owner fires Robert Saleh, then the team goes out and plays uninspiring football against the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football. But then on Tuesday, the Jets trade for the disgruntled Davante Adams. Will that matter at the end of the day? The 2 Dummies spend a considerable amount of time breaking it all down (4:10).  On the other side of...

The NFL is off to an interesting start and we're only three weeks into the season. But before we get into that, the 2 Dummies have some things to say about the Giants first win of the season (6:33). As for the other New York football team, Will has a question about life after Aaron Rodgers for the Jets (24:01). The Dummies then get into what stood out in NFL Week 3 (41:03) before we make our...

The 2 Dummies were burning the midnight oil Thursday night as we shared our thoughts on the Jets' 24-3 win over the New England Patriots at MetLife Stadium. New York's defense absolutely dominated New England is every facet of the game and Aaron Rodgers looked like his old self as he passed for nearly 300 yards.  Elsewhere, the Dummies gave their betting picks for Week 3, and then chatte...

We also have a nice di...

We didn't think we were going to have much to discuss on this week's show, but it turned out to be smorgasboard of the usual shenanigans between the 2 Dummies as we await the start of the NFL season. Our biggest gripe this week? Mets fans overblowing Francisco Alvarez's walk-off homer against the Orioles. Guess what? He hasn't done anything since then. We also spent a considera...

Will is absolutely tired of Daniel Jones, who continues to show Giants fans exactly who he is, even in a meaningless preseason game. The Jones segment of the podcast starts at the 01:35:22 mark of this week's episode. Will. Goes. Off. We begin the show with the week that was for the New York Mets, and the continued drama surrounding the team. LeeJay is at the point where he just doesn't...
