Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre

On today's episode, Jason gets the party started by sharing a wild experience he had recently with the artificial intelligence chatbot that's sweeping the nation: ChatGPT. Things started out innocent enough until our fearless leader decided to ask the one question that's guaranteed to rile up any real sports fan - "Who is the greatest player of all-time: LeBron James of Michael Jordan?" The answer...

On today's episode, Jason gets things started by telling America why they need to come to grips with the fact that Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets are the best team in the Western Conference right now. Barring injury, the West runs through the Mile High City. Later, Super Producer Rob G (Robert Guerra) checks in to help make sense of the odd week that was for Los Angeles Lakers big man Anthony...

On today's episode, Jason gets the party started by sharing the inside scoop on why Kevin Durant really demanded a trade out of Brooklyn. As J-Mac tells it, once Kyrie Irving was dealt, KD decided there was no way he was going to be stuck in Brooklyn with Ben Simmons as his main sidekick. Simmons has seen his play fall of a cliff the past few years so it makes sense why Durant would prefer a chang...

On today's episode, Jason gets the party started by sharing his thoughts on Aaron Rodgers ahead of his darkness retreat. Rodgers has shown time and again that he marches to the beat of his own drum - and this situation is no different. It's hard to trust a guy like that, and it's precisely why J-Mac wants him nowhere near his beloved New York Jets. Later, our fearless leader opens up a whole can o...

On today's episode, Jason and Super Producer Rob G (Robert Guerra) bring you wall-to-wall reaction to the Kansas City Chiefs' win over the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl.

The controversial defensive holding penalty on James Bradberry with under two minutes to play basically sealed the win for the Chi...

On today’s episode, Jason opens the show by previewing the upcoming Super Bowl between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs.

The guys agree the move instantly puts the Suns back into NBA championship contention, but disagree on whether or not it makes Phoe...

On today's episode, Jason gets the party started by sharing his thoughts on LeBron James officially becoming the NBA's all-time scoring leader. LeBron has been McIntyre's GOAT for years and this record-setting performance only cements the fact. The only problem, however, is that LeBron's milestone moment came in yet another loss against a team they have to leapfrog just to make the NBA playoffs. I...

On today's episode, Jason gets Super Week started by revealing a few of his favorite Super Bowl prop bets. You don't have to fire on the Philadelphia Eagles or Kansas City Chiefs this early in the week if you don't love a side; it's totally acceptable to nibble on a few props. Not only are they fun to bet on but you can make a decent amount of money in the process. Then, J-Mac share a quick though...

On today's episode, Jason brings you wall-to-wall coverage of the blockbuster trade that saw the Brooklyn Nets send mercurial point guard Kyrie Irving to the Dallas Mavericks. There are 3 prongs to this story: the Mavs side, the Nets side and the Los Angeles Lakers side.

On today's episode, Jason gets things started by sharing his thoughts on Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon being sought by police for pulling a gun on a woman. The Bengals showed in the AFC Championship game that they're ready to phase Mixon out of their offense if needed so it's definitely possible that this incident could lead to them cutting ties from him altogether. Later, J-Mac goes o...

On today's episode, Jason gets the party started by sharing his thoughts on Tom Brady's second retirement from the NFL and how it impacts the rest of the League. With Brady out of the picture, the price for guys like Derek Carr and Jimmy Garoppolo has suddenly shot through the roof. Lamar Jackson is unlikely to become available and Aaron Rodgers could retire in 2024 himself so we're likely to see...

On today's episode, Jason gets the party started by quickly discussing that infamous Seattle Seahawks haircut we saw him sporting Tuesday morning on The Herd. It seemed like a good bet before the season that the Seahawks would be one of the worst teams in the NFL, but thanks in large part to former New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith, Seattle surprised a lot of people and ultimately caused our fe...

On today's episode, Jason gets things started by hitting us with a deep dive into Brock Purdy and the UCL injury that is expected to sideline him for at least 6 months. While some are using the injury as an excuse to float Tom Brady to the San Francisco 49ers as a potential free agent, J-Mac argues that the Niners should stay the course and let Purdy and Trey Lance battle it out for the starting g...

On today's episode, Jason and Super Producer Rob G (Robert Guerra) bring you wall-to-wall reaction to the AFC and NFC Championship games. Unfortunately, bad officiating seemed to be the story of the weekend as the zebras absolutely botched several key plays in both games.

On today's episode, Jason gets the party started by sharing his thoughts on his beloved New York Jets' decision to hire Nathaniel Hackett to be their next offensive coordinator. Presumably, the move was made with the intention of recruiting Aaron Rodgers to the Jets since the two worked together in Green Bay for three seasons. However, any realistic sports fan who can spot the forest through the t...

On today's episode, Jason gets the party started with a quick update on the health status of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Apparently that ankle injury isn't as bad as originally thought and now bettors are back pounding the Chiefs. Definitely something to keep an eye on. Later, J-Mac does a deep dive into a full-proof way to 'hack' the NFL. History says you can't win a Super Bow...

On today's episode, Jason gets things started by going off on his beloved Los Angeles Lakers following their gutless performance against the Los Angeles Clippers. LeBron James was phenomenal and the rest of the team played like crap.  More importantly, Russell Westbrook was an absolutely abomination who proved once again that he's not capable of playing winning basketball against good teams. On th...

On today's episode, Jason gets the party started by quick a preview of the upcoming NFC and AFC Championship games from a betting perspective. Patrick Mahomes' ankle injury is obviously the biggest story of the week in the AFC, and in the NFC all eyes remain focused on the trenches. If you can find an early edge on either game you should definitely jump on it. Moreover, all of these teams are very...

On today's episode, Jason kicks things off with a quick whip around the NFL following a series of high-profile coordinator firings. Did Greg Roman get the boot because Lamar Jackson has always wanted to run a pro style system? Will the firing of Byron Leftwich help to keep Tom Brady in Tampa Bay? Who will Minnesota and Miami tab to be their next defensive coordinators? J-Mac has it all covered. La...

On today's episode, Jason gets the party started by explaining why the San Francisco 49ers -4 over the Dallas Cowboys is easily his favorite bet of the NFL Divisional round. Money has been coming in on the Niners all week - and for good reason. San Francisco has been an absolute juggernaut for the last few months so it's reasonable to expect more of the same against Dallas. The Brock Purdy Show wi...

On today's episode, Jason kicks things off by sharing his thoughts on the sneaky-big news that Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson has decided to remain with the club for next season. With Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St Brown, D'Andre Swift, Jamaal Williams and a strong offensive line all set to return (not to mention Johnson calling plays), the Lions are set up to be very good in 2023. Later,...

On today's episode, Jason and Super Producer Rob G (Robert Guerra) get the party started by sharing their thoughts on the Dallas Cowboys' blowout victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

On today's episode, Jason and Super Producer Rob G (Robert Guerra) bring you wall-to-wall coverage of NFL Wild Card Weekend.
