Opi & the Bear

We talk: Getting high and watching certain movies, quick takes on the Super Bowl and our picks, Bears bets, top free agents of 2026, 6 of some-half dozen of another origins, a "baker's dozen", and after that fun, we go into Brewery Player Protection, which is always a fun subject. At the end, we discuss F You Kevin and Bear's near 300s in bowling and the upcoming shows since this...

We talk: WoW (World of Warcraft), DnD, the Steelers, Mike Tomlin, last week's playoffs, this week's playoffs, Cherriola makes its way back to the banter, some replacements for playoff injuries, the Super Bowl, the Bears season as a whole in relation to the Williams to Kmet TD, during this part Tara joins Opi and the guys have a hell of a time razzing Opi as he's on screen but no mic or...

A little shorthanded again this week but we just chat a ton. We talk about the games from last weekend and talk the future games but really, this was just a nice little chat session about different things going on in our lives along with some sports and how we felt about things like the Eagle fans pelting 49er fans relentlessly with snowballs and some of the coaching carousel going on. Poor AJ did...

Don't let the name fool you, it's just something we mention early on in the podcast that got us pretty lively. We have the whole group back again and you know it quickly, because Opi is really excited to be talking to his friends again…and talking, and talking, and talking LOL. Ryan gives everyone a lesson on who holds the Guinness Book of World Record for biggest poo, then we go on a diat...

Bear and the boys have some fun as Opi has stayed in Florida and Grimbo has pretty much checked out. We have a lively and fun talk about Rosie O'Donnell, the Illini bowl game, the messy NFC South, go over our normal stuff but do it in a more chatty way as opposed to structured. Then Bear has some endof the season quiz numbers for the guys, talk some NFL, lots of Bears and Packers talk, then sp...

This is just the Bear podcast! No Opi, no Ryan, no AJ, and noGrim. Bear has a little spat at the beginning on how awful and discourteous holiday shoppers, or people in general are. Then he goes into the a quick rundown of last week's predictions, Boom, Bust, and Sleeper, followed by NFL and then some quick talk about the upcoming games in the FBFL. Bear throws in a couple comments on Nixon&#39...

We are short players again and are down to the stinkiest of the podcast guys and it starts that way. Then we talk about the missing guys and the lack of offensive flexibility in the NFL, hiring these coordinators, Phillip Rivers and his "eh", last week's predictions, playoff games, Boom, Bust, Sleeper, NFL Picks with this week's video being NFL bloopers or what they call "Oo...

Thanks to Spotify, we had to republish, but here ya go...again. After Opi gets done pouting, the topics of conversation become: Phillip Rivers, Hall of Famer or no? Joe Namath stats, sort of, last week's prediction results, Grim's computer prowess, Boom players, Bust players, Grimbo trying to pee at Arrowhead Stadium, Adara doesn't understand running backpower, Mad Men, Hightown, Stran...

We get the gang back together to chat football and then spend a lot of time going over the different playoff scenarios in the FBFL. We also talk: Joker's long life, Opi broke Grimbo, Koo's kick, Grimbo moving draft picks, Fuck You Kevin's Draft Pick addiction, Boom, the Bear's offensive line, Bust, QB injuries, the Raiders, Sleepers, NFL Picks, Bears fans need to shut the fuck up,...

We're Opi-less again and I'm not sure we're getting better atthis but we're having fun. This was just Bear and the Boys and we had a good time just talking shit. What we cover: The Campaign, predictions, Bear's poor memory, monotone, bowling, Boom, flavored Red Bull, MNF chat, Bust, Sleeper,and Step Brothers. For your NFL song viewing, we have a little lingerie football video t...

We're Opi-less again due to him havingsnot issues…again. We start without Ryan, but he shows up a little later with Whitey's for himself. What we chat about: Emily Osment, last week's predictions, a little NBA, the movie Playdate, AJ's new tat, Grim's Government conspiracy, Ryan's sick kid, Texan's uniform (game was on during the podcast),boom, bust, sleeper, the origin...

We skipped week 9 for 1 simple reason, no Bear means no cuts so this stuff can't get published. So, we plow through a couple weeks' worth of stuff in 1 decently quick podcast. We start with the picks and normal stuff and sprinkle in some stories of Bear's trip to Cancun. We tangent a lot, talk alittle about The Witcher new season, how easy it is to get hurt in our elder state, some new...

OK, so we may not be able to see the future but we take a whack at it. We give our boom, bust, sleepers and then we go over who we think is going to be the top 5 players for the rest of the year at their positions. Each guy takes a position and rattles them off and most give decent insight as to why they feel the way they do. We're all back together which is nice to see and we have a good time...

This was the opposite of last week when Bear and Grim ran the podcast, this one was done by the other 3 slackers who weren't there as Bear and Grim had work engagement to attend to. The boys chat about the FBFL and actually give Rob Barber a bunch of credit, so you could tell Bear wasn't thereto break that up. Then they go through the normal predictions and talk just football in general. T...

Right off the bat we just start ripping Opi, and rightfully sosince this week is just Grim and I as all the other putzes had to bail. Bear and Grim have a great time, keep it lively, and continue to shit on Opi so if you're a fan of Opi getting ripped on, this one is for you! We spend some FBFL time, but we spend a lot of time just chatting about the NFL. Bear does go off on the Brewers at the...

We go off the rails right at the beginning, but it's a fun talkabout the butt biting announcer. Opi gives us some of the absolute WORST lead-ins this week. We do our pick stuff and spend a lot of time talking about the decisions of why we like or dislike them. Ryan gives you instructions on how to use his picks properly. We chat NFL trades, FBFL trades, lack of trading in one of the FBFL leagu...

Back to the office, otherwise known as Bear's extra room, andthe guys have a lot of fun just shooting the shit…a LOT. We do the Boom, Bust and all that stuff but we really do a ton of banter on this one. We get interrupted by friend of the Pod Kayla with her new whip. We chat quite a bit about injuries and guys coming back. Bear reveals a GREAT waiver wire pickup for everyone to consider. We d...

Everyone is on their own this week! Well, not everyone. Bear has to make up for Grim & AJ who didn't have time to record so between school, working 40 hours in 3 days, bags league, and his wife's birthday, Bear made up for those who "didn't have time". Yes, Bear also writes these up so he can also do the bitching. This bad boy is cut, cut, cut but we wanted to get somethi...

It's a short staff so we're also shortening up the name sonothing is as long as it used to be! We go through the normal Boom, Bust, Sleepers and of course our NFL picks of the week. Bear explains why Opi & AJ are missing for the week and then we just talk fantasy football. We go over RBs and whether or not they are going to stay in the top 10, get to the top 10, or in some cases, be ou...

We changed our format and started this with Opi on his soapbox, then hit the boom, bust, sleeper, and NFL so then we can just talk fantasy football and get less structured.  TheBears were a topic for us a couple times and we go over all groups favorite teams with the Seahawks & Steelers. We do a round table discussion and Bear nicknames all the guys with a "Sir" in front, it was off...

This one is long, and we're trying to cut things down but we go over both leagues draft and if you aren't part of the league, no worries because we really spend a lot of time just talking about how we like a lot of these players and how we feel they'll do this year. We also bring back the boom, bust and sleeper players and some NFL picks but we skip the FBFL teams picks. There's a...

We do a live draft and talk shit to each other as we make our picks. You get to view the actual draft online and listen to us yell at each other as we snipe each other. Kayla comes in late and takes the podcast over with her 12 kids and odd picks. It gets a little loud in a couple spots because of those psychos, sorry about that. Bear pisses podcase friend Kipp off and he not only bails on the pod...

Football - football - football!! That's what we talk about!! We go over the predictions for the Brewery division and speed through the ones for the podcast guys because it's pretty much set in stone and they divulge on here who they're keeping and why. We talk a lot about players in general and their value again. Bear proposes a new pool and it gets poo-pooled quickly. Opi is in the ho...

We continue the Distillery player protection predictions and this one has an interruption from friend of the podcast and Bear's least favorite daughter, Kayla and granddaughter Kinsley as Kayla tells us a story about her kids having some shart issues and pooping on the kids toilet out by the pool, it's an intriguing story and discussion. Bear also complains a little about the cost of the N...

Smelling salts are now illegal, Shedeur is moving up the depth chart quickly, Cleveland QB room, some injury and contract dispute discussions, and then after all that chat, we hammer the Distillery Conference Protection Predictions and this is the first half of the discussion with the 2nd half coming out next week. This prediction is about certain teams but realistically, we spend a lot of time di...
