Can George Karl even get his team there? The guys take a look at player rotations and what...

The guys come into the 33rd podcast the day after Nate's 30th birthday. Ross tries to explain the pros and cons of gray hair, but can't stay focused for too long as Peyton Manning talk beckons.

Podcast 31 rolls out and the guys get down to the business of Netflix, televisions, the Cheesecake Factory, anger sharks, and much more.

The guys are back talking Super Bowl, some rap music and food, how to watch the big game, and who should play John Fox or George Karl should a movie be made involving the Denver teams ... a hint - his crimson is not quick or dead.  The Nuggets not only suffered in the win and loss column last week, but the injuries are starting to really pile up as Danilo Gallinari suffered a sprained left ankle t...

The guys sneak in a podcast towards the end of the week; things will be back to the normal Tuesday nights next week (Jan. 10th).  Steelers vs. Broncos talk dominates the beginning of the show and later in the show the guys put their money where their mouth is or uh, well, they make actual predictions on the score of the big game coming this Sunday (Jan. 8th).
