Czabe welcomes on Mr. X to talk about why the faves can go 10-2 two weeks ago, and then the dogs go 9-5 the next week for no damn reason. If only we knew how and why. NFL refs are putting the screws to taunting penalties this year, and nobody likes it. Apparently nobody holds against Ohio State. Like, nobody. Are owner press conferences mid-season ever a good thing (no!) so why do some people like Jerrah do 'em? To "stir shit up" as he says. The college football "eye test" season is in, and Czabe explains why it's total bullshit. Plus, where you are ranked right now, actually DOES matter. Also the boys are on a roll with their TNF picks, so let's go 2-0 again this week! MORE....

The NFL Trade Deadline provided some real sparks again this year. With the Jets accumulating an astonishing haul of 5 first-rounders in the next years with a pair of trades.

PAUL CHARCHIAN joins me and talks cloned dogs, bending the knee to ESPN, and who the real winner is in the YouTube TV standoff. Plus, imagine being nervous to fly, and then winning the fake bomb scare lottery? Ooof. MORE....

Czabe delivers two new "Friends of Czabe" to the podcast today, MATT MUELLER who is "A Man About Film" from the old show, and also BRYAN WOLF - aka "Wolfie" - who has just about had it with Packers head coach Matt LaFleur.

Plus, just how bad was Isiah Kiner-Falafa's baserunning on a play that could have won the World Series? All that, plus the Conor Stallions in CMU gear mystery has finally been solved. Another monster episode, people, please subscribe, it would be very appreciated! MORE....
