The Roundup Podcast

On today's show, it's been a long layoff but shoutout to Kev Reiily for lighting a fire under us and getting Gaber and I back on the mics! There's a full list of excuses as to why it's been months since our last show, but more importantly, we're back, and granted, without any of the branding, or production or trappings, but hey, this one is us getting down to business, and all just for the love of...

    On today's show, after an unplanned but unavoidable hiatus, (which was caused in part by tech issues resulting from a real actual Act of God, and the audio is still not quite right for a few minutes near the beginning, sorry!) we are finally back, and just in time to catch up on the NFL Playoffs after a tremendous Wild Card Weekend. I'm super high on the Bills and Rams as favorites, the Guru l...

On today's show, we are just about to the most wonderful time of the year, and no, I'm not talking about Christmas. I mean the Sports Eclipse, that part of the calendar year when we have Major League, Baseball, the NFL and the NBA all at the same time, and In honor of the occasion, we're gonna touch them all…,       - starting by talking about the MLB playoffs, Tarik Skubel, the Seattle Mariners,...

On today's show, we're ready to go, with 4 weeks of NFL action to confirm or contradict what we thought we knew coming into the season. Fortuitous we did so, cuz otherwise we likely would have had some chicken-little takes on the Lions, but instead, we have a nice sample size to work with as we observe and evaluate everything we see on Sundays…and Mondays, and Thursdays, and sometimes Fridays or S...

    On today's show, we're celebrating the return of the most anticipated of fall traditions, those glorious Sunday afternoons on the couch with the NFL, and in honor of the occasion, it's time for our annual previews and predictions, as we scour both Conferences for Playoff teams, make our Super Bowl picks, just talk some football and much, much more!     So sit back, it's the NFL, all NFL and no...

On today's show, with a renewed vigor and an enthusiasm not felt in ages, MLB is back, has been back for me and I've been living in the box scores, on Baseball Reference, on MLB Network, since April, so now it's time for this show to catch up a bit, and we have a lot to catch up on, including…     - the extreme highs and recent lows of Aaron Judge…,     - ranking Judge with the other most elite hi...

On today's show, the NBA offseason hit fast and furious, as just days after GM 7 of the Finals, we had the draft, a series of trades and free agency, so we're getting into…     - our Warriors' glaring absence in all the action, and what the future may hold in GS…,     - our favorite guys from the draft…,     - a way too early rough draft of how the conferences might line up next year,…     - based...

On today's show, while the casual NBA fan might have sat this Finals out, what with no LeBron, no Steph, no Jokic, not even an Anthony Edwards, us hardcore hoop heads have had ourselves a fantastic series, and to top it all off, we get a Game 7 on Sunday! But first, we need to catch up with all the action, so we're talking…     - how the Pacers have made this a series despite being significant und...

On today's show, we have a lot of NBA Playoffs to catch up on. Despite our best efforts, Gaber and I just couldn't connect until today, so we're gonna get in the way back machine to…     - give our Warriors' season a post-mortem…,     - as well as recap what we saw elsewhere around the conference semis, before moving on to the…     - Pacers' unlikely Eastern Conference title, and how they beat the...

On today's show, it's NBA Playoff time, the "real season", where the intensity ramps up, everyone plays thru injuries, the matchups are, for the most part, pretty competitive and it's all happening every single night, so we're breaking it all down, talking…      - Warriors' path to the 7 seed, including how…     - Jimmy Butler impacts this team, as well as a look at…     - Jimmy's proclivity for g...

On today's show, another NFL season and another Super Bowl is in the books so you'd think that's where we'd start today but we're somehow still more interested in talking about…        - an NBA trade that happened almost a week ago but was so big, so unexpected and so ground shaking that we almost have no choice but to get into the Luka Doncic trade to the Lakers…       - and look at possible Mavs...

On today's show, it's Super Bowl week, the NBA season is past the halfway point & All-Star rosters have been selected, and our Warriors are still mid, so we're starting there,…        -  by trying to find the silver linings on the cloud that hangs over our Warriors…       - and looking at possible trade options, before continuing all around the NBA…       - comparing the actual NBA All-Star roster...

On today's show, we're talking NBA and NFL, and we're guilty of… more unrepentant homerism, as Steph gives us a classic performance vs the Sixers & our Warriors give us a win, but we're still wondering, what will it take to improve our outlook on the season?… Then, we get into how the Thunder are currently dominating and still have upside when their 2nd best player returns… flawed teams around the...

On today's show, it's more NBA and more NFL, as we get into… my lack of disappointment in our Warriors' NBA Cup loss to the Rockets… how good this Rockets team can be this season… Kawhi's imminent return for the Clippers a crowded field for Western Conference All-Star starters… NFL Playoff picture… Ladd McConkey, Puka Nakua… how fluky is the Chiefs 12-1 record?… and more!

On today's show, the convergence of my 3 favorite sports is here, at a time of the year I like to call the sports eclipse. The NFL season is coming off of a fantastic Week 7, with some big time matchups that ended up resulting in a few barnburners, as the Lions upset the previously undefeated Vikings in Minnesota and take over 1st place in the NFC North & the Packers make a statement vs the Texans...

On today's show, as we enter Week 6 of the NFL season, our sample size is now large enough to start to draw some solid conclusions. For starters, we can safely say that the NFC North is the best division in football, cumulatively with the most points scored, the fewest allowed, the best overall record, the most wins, fewest losses, and all teams with a positive differential, and the worst teams, t...

On today's show, 4 weeks into an NFL season that's been anything but predictable, it's time to start to readjusting our expectations. The Vikings have played great D and beat some real contenders to sit at 4-0, the Commanders rookie QB has led them to 3-1 and the top of the NFC East, and the Seahawks are better than expected on both sides of the ball and look like a lock for at least a Wild Card....

On today's show, things get messy in NFL Week 2 as upsets abound. Most of our top tier Super Bowl contenders, including the Cowboys, the Lions, the Niners and the Ravens all lose to underdogs, but the Bengals had the dubious distinction of losing to the defending champion Chiefs and Mahomes. But the dog show we got early made for perfect viewing, with the unbalanced 10 early/3 late slate, we got t...
