Cody rants about Kyrie's really dumb decision and tries to find a remotely close comparison that can't be found.

Cody and Steve catch up on the new NBA based on more stars aligning. Have the teams changed enough? Will they make a difference? Was Gordon to the Celtics even a big deal? (hint: no) and why the Sixers are in better position than CP3 and Harden. It Pittsburgh started from scratch and could pick anyone NOT on the Cavs or Warriors, who would the starting 5 be to beat them? THEN, it's never too early...

Then don't say anything at all. We know, we know. our mom's always said that. And that's what inspired our new segment, "be nice or shut up" where Steve and Cody go back and forth, mentioning names of hated or disliked athletes and force one another to say something nice. That and we touch on the Serena comments, Cody Bellinger, Tebow, Vince Young and Durant's Cupcake actions. Great time to be bac...

We explore both issues in detail along with research on why the warriors didn't change the NBA with the 3 ball and how the NFL rule changes fair to u...

Cody and Steve debate the top most unpopular sports opinions, statements or topics in a way that only they can. With a tiny bit of knowledge, some stunning with, and mostly crude humor covering up their real issues...They also compare the power 5 college football conferences to bands/musicians for fun. Plus a Mad-libs with recent Machado rant. Great episode. 

It's yet another time to talk about Lebron's greatness and how his greatness has clouded our eyes to him. We will appreciate him when he's gone. Similar to a certain someone in the sport of golf. our expectations are crazy for him despite remembering MJ in the best possible light that Nike might have helped create. Anyway, the boys debate that, recap the pointless Derby, talk horse semen, comment...

You might have thought "Are the guys EVER going to put out their last Greatest Hits?" Well, if it weren't for Cody badgering Steve from halfway across the globe, maybe not.

Reviewing the last year of hilarity, absurd references to lord knows what, some bracket talk, and oh yeah, sport...

You didn't really appreciate it 'til the second one came out, so we stretched the game out...well, it isn't exactly Hard Knock Life on Jay Z Vol. 2, but it IS the next best thing that sports fans could imagine...the Talking About Sports, Greatest Hits, Volume II. Cody and Steve are, as always, hysterically debating, ridiculing each other, making outrageous claims, and when you give this one a list...

With Cody out of the country and galavanting around the Southern half of the world, the boys figured, why not give our listeners a treat: a greatest hits track. Cody went back through and pulled some of the BEST of the first two years. Turns out there were a LOT of great times and ridiculousness. So, here is Volume 1...stay tuned for Volume 2 and 3.
