Small State Big Takes

Tons of Big Takes in this episode. We have NFL takes: Free Agency is under way. How do we react to what has happened so far? What do we want the Patriots to do? Are the Celtics back? March Madness is finally upon us as we are midway through March...it's almost bracket time. We introduce a new segment called "Cushman's Takes" featuring tweets from our friend Terry Cushman. Are the Yankees going to...

RIP to Bobby AKA Amber. Steve's dog passed away over the weekend so send him some love @SmallStateTakes on twitter. This week's episode we tackle a slew of topics that include NBA, NFL combine, Bryce Harper, and much more. Can you love someone, hate someone, and love someone again? I think so, others disagree. We have a little NERDOUT session. There's a lot to take in here. Fantasy Baseball season...

It feels like it's been 8 years since we recorded this podcast. Lots of controversy entails, if I remember correctly. We have a lot of baseball talk, but it's hard to ignore the WR market in the NFL so we dive into that as well. The confession segment returns with some nostalgia; be sure to tune in! Sorry for being so late!

You'll have to stick around for this one to understand why we called this one the "Barney" pod. Bad memories of Barney for one of the Big Takers...anyways, today we talk about the MLB offseason still dragging on, what defines greatness for MLB players, NBA All star weekend, and fun ways to generate the draft order for fantasy sports. Don't forget to subsribe, rate, and spread the news of the Big T...

Baseball is so close we can taste it. Steve is a Yankees fan. I'm disgusted and can't write a description. 

Super Bowl Champions. That's right, the Patriots are Super Bowl champs again and 3 of us love to bathe in the tears of the haters. We recap the Super Bowl and debate Edelman's career: is he HOF bound? It's officially baseball season and we discuss why the MLB offseason continues to be slow; who is to blame? We finish with a heated discussion about.........................................pancakes....

The Super Bowl is upon is so we give our takes, predictions, and other opinions on what to expect in the big game. We also talk some MLB Hall of Fame: Current players that would make it if they retired today. Anthony Davis wants out: do we want him? Listen to find out. Tell your mom, your dad, brother, sister, cat, dog, grandpa, grandma. Tell everyone. This is the year of Small State Big Takes. Cl...

We have special guest Connor Ryan joining us this week to recap the crazy NFL weekend. The Patriots are going to the Super Bowl. Steve can't connect to the chat. Baseball is still king (to us, anyways). The Super Bowl is upon on us and we still find a way to talk about baseball and potential routes the Red Sox can go. Make sure to tune in next week for our Super Bowl picks and of course, our big t...

Warning: If you don't want to know the outcome of this weekends playoff games, don't watch. Also warning: if you don't want to know where Bryce Harper is signing, don't listen. Also warning: if you don't like listening to 4 guys talk nonsense and have insanely bigly takes, don't listen. Jam packed episode. Let's roll. 

The year 2019 is upon us. Kyle Driscoll is saving lives and is a legend. We know him (no big deal).

There's a bunch of big takes and other banter throughout, we hope you enjoy. This is the year of Small State Big Takes!

The Red Sox are back. The hot stove is heating up with the news of Josh Donaldson signing, so we decided to preview where we think the impending Red Sox free agents will land. We also had some NBA talk including LeBron and the future of the Celtics. If you're a fan, are you allowed to regret a trade? We have the answer.

Welcome back to Small State Takes. This week we were a day late, so thanks for hanging in there. We were all over the place this week, talking about Thanksgiving, fruits, candy, NBA, NFL, you name it. Steve is still dead (RIP Bro!), but there could be a Small State 1v1 tourney in the making! Stay tuned, and don't forget to tell a friend! SHOUTOUT BIG TAKERS!

RIP Steve. He died on the basketball courts at Ninigret Park on Saturday in the showdown. Just as he predicted, Oliver won 21-6. Tune in to hear what they have to say and the recap about the matchup. The rest of the episode takes turns left and right, talking about the NBA a little bit, to a little bit of college basketball, to specific food habits. It's an interesting talk to say the least. Maybe...

The stakes have never been higher. There has never been more hype for an event in history. The 1v1 is finally happening. Steve and Oliver are going to play against each other. Most of the episode consists of smack talk and a sprinkle of other stuff. Connor Ryan joined the podcast to talk about the matchup. There isn't much to say, this is a must listen if we have ever made one.

Disclaimer: We were all extremely distracted during the recording of this podcast. It was recorded during game 3 of the Sox/Yankees ALDS. Luckily, the Sox smacked the Yankees around the block. We talk about our adventures in Boston on Saturday for game 2 of the series, recap the Patriots whooping on the Colts while previewing the big game against the Chiefs on SNF next week. In this weeks Top5, a...

This is the best episode yet. With the MLB playoffs upon us we have a special guest, Terry Cushman. We talk about the Red Sox chances this postseason, and have some back and forth about David Price and Dustin Pedroia (is he a bad father?). We also have Red Sox related Top5 and Confessions segment. Of course, we talk about week 4 of the NFL as well. There are some big takes in there of course. Foll...

Well, he did it. Mike Gilligan is a fantasy baseball champion. We congratulate him and dive into what has happened over the past week. The Red Sox clinch and secure home field. The Patriots got their teeth kicked in, are we worried? In this weeks Top5 we talk about our favorite jersey's in sports and finish it off talking about candy that we hate. It's one heck of a ride! Be sure to follow the Twi...
