Let Them Eat Takes

College football moneymakers (read boomers) collaborate (read conspire) to make as much money as possible via conference realignment and in doing so become death the destroyer of the PAC12 and college football as we know it.

We discuss the lack of respect the Denver Nuggets got during their championship win and how Miss St’s social media team all deserve raises for their unbelievable AI generated 2024 calendar release graphic.

Come hangout with JDUNC, Justin, Scott, and Kevin as we take in round 1 of the NFL draft, make jokes, bemoan the Flacons (sp), and admire the drip some of these athletes don for their big night.

College football has its blue bloods. Soccer, the sport of the world, also has blue bloods, and all the weird prejudices and stereotypes that entails. This week, we dive into why NFL scouts incorrectly assessed Brock Osweiller for very similar reasons that a mediocre striker from Brazil might get picked up by a European club. We also diagnose the ass-kicking that happened in Athens, why Vol fans o...

We're getting straight to the point in this episode and discussing the No. 1 Georgia Bulldogs and the No. 1 Tennessee Volunteers playing in Athens Saturday. What calamity might ensue? Plus, Scott gives us some thoughts on the long-term outlook of Josh Heupel's Tennessee program. We mention the World Series, but we don't linger too much because we're still really vexed about Robert Manfred's primet...

Coaches love winning, but do they love winning more than winning their way ? We ask this question as it looks like Jimbo Fisher is going to have to put down "War and Peace" and instead read "Who Moved My Cheese?" if he wants to stay in Aggieland. Same sentiment applies to Kirk Ferentz, who is very lucky to be coaching Iowa and not asking questions about why his son's offense stinks. The 2008 Flori...

This week, we dunk on the Mets for failing to sell out a primetime postseason elimination game, Jimbo Fisher's red zone offense, Brian Snitker's bullpen management, Iowa's offense (again), and Bryce Young's inspiring Facebook post after the 24-20 win over Texas A&M. We also ask important questions like: do NFL coaches really overuse analytics? How bad is Oklahoma right now? Is it Stetson Benne...

This week, we talk about some of the big moves in Madison, Jimbo Fisher's buyout (should that line of total insanity be pursued by Texas A&M), Tom Brady getting an extra finger available for some hardware, and we'll react to the Braves sweeping the Mets en route to winning another NL East pennant. Justin shares the darkness he discovered while watching Georgia struggle against Missouri and we...

On this one, Kevin and Jonathan talk about the Braves , college football , and lament the Falcons . Jonathan pretends he is a therapist and gives Kevin a safe space to vent his frustration about his two favorite college programs ( GA Tech & Auburn ) being fully ablaze in a dumpster fire right now. We end by reminiscing on how we came to support the programs and teams we love.

Today, we're talking about one of college football's most celebrated dynasties (not Alabama, though we'll get to them). Jonathan asks the most important question in the sport: how bad is Iowa's offense, really? Kevin thinks there's something wrong with Stetson Bennett, Scott reassesses Greyson Lambert's record setting game that made Steve Spurrier want to quit, and Justin found another baffling ca...

In this edition, Scott and Justin recap week 1 of college football, look ahead to what might be interesting down the road this year, and also talk about what's going on in the division races of the MLB. Scott braces himself for his first Atlanta Falcons season since moving back from California (and for the first time since Matt Ryan finally escaped), Justin struggles to get good audio again, plus...

It's only week 1 but it's never too early to talk about what coaches are getting fired this year. Will Scott Frost make it to to Halloween? Will Geoff Collins get 4 wins for the 404? Who's helping Bryan Harsin get his buyout this year? So many possibilities! Week 1 has already been a blast and we're excited for the weekend games. 

Bet you didn't think we'd get one out before the CFB season started, did ya? We are talking exclusively college football this episode and we're excited to be dropping it just days before Week 0 begins. And what a week 0 it is! Nebraska and Northwestern in Ireland, Austin Peay and Western Kentucky, Hawaii and Vandy... why, it's murderers row for gambling addicts! We'll talk what storyline we think...

We're back... again! We've emerged from our championship-induced comas and we're back in the saddle again to talk sports (and this time, more than just college football!). We'll talk NBA, NHL (kind of), some soccer, a soccer player who bit people, a horse who bit other horses after winning the Kentucky Derby, baseball, and of course a little CFB. More importantly, well will be giving you, the list...

In this episode, we're talking all Dawgs. There is no barking in this episode but we will revel in the glory of a National title finally making its way back to Athens for the first time since 1980. We'll talk about our favorite moments from the game, what we think it will mean for Georgia going forward, and of course we'll spend a decent amount of time talking about the man of the hour Stetson Ben...

Today's episode is brought to you by grits- the official food of offensive linemen in the college football playoff. Just kidding, it's brought to you by podcasters like us (but for listeners like you!).  Today we're zeroing in on the big game Monday. We'll tell you how we think it's gonna go, and also how we're going to cope if our team doesn't win (if you're new around here, welcome to the h...

Today we're diving into the deep end to explore the depths of human darkness which Georgia fans find themselves in (and hopefully rescuing a few poor, unfortunate souls in the process). What went wrong for Georgia? Can they do any better in a potential rematch? How crazy is it that Cincinnati made the playoff? We'll also talk Georgia's quarterback situation; would playing JT Daniels have made any...

It's championship week! We're devoting extra airtime to the game of the week, the one we've all been waiting for... Oregon vs Utah in the Pac12 Championship! Just kidding, we're talking about the SEC Championship mostly, please keep listening. Other talking points: Billy Napier becoming the next head Gator.  Is Lincoln Riley going to USC because he's too chicken for the SEC? What Notre Dame f...

Everything this episode is about is in the title.... just kidding, we're not spending all our time today talking about funerals. As is customary, we will talk a lot of college football, some of us will give some takes that aged well, others not so well (Clemson has defied our expectations!). This episode was recorded before Dan Mullen got the sack but don't worry, we'll come back after Thanksgivin...

Sorry it's been two weeks but we've just riding the sweet, sweet high of that Braves World Series win. In case you forgot the wise words of Joc Pederson, we are those motherf*ckers. We will spend a healthy amount of time reveling in this Peach State triumph, but we'll also talk about Georgia Tech football; an entity that, like the Braves, has become closely associated with Waffle House. We'll also...

It's World Series Time! Game 1 is already in the books and Game 2 will be underway just hours after this uploads but we couldn't resist the opportunity to have a homercast moment with the Atlanta Braves getting their first NL pennant in over two decades. We'll talk about Dave Roberts being hooked on his own bullpen like Chipper Jones to underage waitresses and the self-inflicted wounds that might...

Imagine, if you will, an alternate universe in which Freddie Freeman grew up in Venezuela. Perhaps his family are Italians that were displaced to this Latin American country (perhaps, even, by the mob). Maybe his name is just simply, "el Freddi." Maybe this bizarro version of Freddie Freeman also doesn't want to move to California since he has no ties to the West coast state. This week, we somehow...

As one pundit put it, Bo Nix has to explore the backfield on every play as if it were a Legend of Zelda dungeon; tediously scouring the map for any hidden rupees or heart pieces. We'll recap some of his magical antics this week as well as say auf wiedersehen to Notre Dame's playoff chances this year (auf wiedersehen because you know we'll back here next season staring them down as an unworthy play...

Here we come, sliding into your podcast feed on the eve of another exciting college football weekend! We can't stop saying it but holy cow this is a weird season. We'll give a recap of all that happened last weekend, a few picks ahead of this one, and we'll spend some extra time talking about how far south things have gone in Dabo's world. Is being the Dr. Pepper Athlete the Madden Curse of colleg...

This week, we're reacting once again to the last week's results in the college football season. We'll talk Fresno State beating UCLA without a QB with functioning hips, Auburn's Bo Nix (and why he's easy to make fun of), Florida getting showered in praise after another loss to Alabama, another bad and lazy take by Dan Wolken, Connor McGregor's first pitch at a Cubs game, plus a new segment we like...
