Czabe welcomes old 97.3 The Game colleagues BRIAN BUTCH and ARMEY SARYAN to talk college basketball and more. Can the NCAA really snub a team that might finish 32-1? How badly did the Packers botch their special teams coach leaving after the hiring cycle was over? Czabe weighs in on the USA men's hockey team "controversy" attending the SOTU, and a bunch of responses to the Penn State episode with John Ziegler. MORE.....

Czabe welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN back after his stint at the FSGA conference in Vegas. They get nerdy about "vibe coding" and AI going rogue. How Derek Stevens ended up building Circa Resort and Casino. Malik Willis is going to be wildly overpaid by somebody. Have the Vikings already soft-benched JJ McCarthy? A dude accidentally hacks into 7,000 robotic vacuums worldwide. X-Box is truly, utterly, finished. MORE.....

Czabe recently made his first-ever visit to Penn State, and was pondering what it must have been like when the Sandusky scandal broke back in 2011. And now with "the benefit of hindsight" he welcomes back JOHN ZIEGLER who has done the most exhaustive deep dive into what he calls the greatest injustice in modern America history. A destruction of lives and legacies, in a rush to satisfy a moral panic. Also, why most Penn State-ers have no appetite for the actual truth, they just want to avoid sounding complicit, and are happy the whole episode is behind them. Listen with an open mind. MORE.....

Czabe welcomes ANDY POLLIN to discuss the final exclamation point from Milan, as Team USA wins gold in overtime in men's hockey, making it a perfect pair of overtime moments with the women. Poor Canada, this was maybe worse than actually becoming our 51st state! Also, we talk about Lindsay Vonn and when "discretion should be the better part of valor." Alysa Liu didn't just steal the games, she gave a template to follow for all future skaters and gymnasts. Duke and Michigan battle it out on a neutral court. ESPN's standards for fact-checking and production are so low now that they can't be counted on not to fuck up a graphic of a tragic athlete suicide. It's inconceivable how little some of the highest-profile and highest-paid media "stars" are these days. MORE....

Czabe welcomes MATT MUELLER to talk about some of the amazing moments and scenes from Milan. Also, Hollywood has been on a mini-run lately, and Matt is here for it! Czabe also talks about the Tony Clark fiasco with the MLBPA, and maybe my devices are both eavesdropping on me for targeted ads, but also spying on me? The Robot Revolution is on our doorstep. MORE....

Czabe flies solo today as he's traveling to Arizona with his mom and daughter. The NBA Draft Lottery is worse than before, but Czabe has a simple proposal to return the league to "normal law" before making any more counter-productive "fixes." The Olympics still deliver the human drama that should resonate with everyone, but there's always a few "bah humbugs" out there. The feds are stepping in to help fix the "Poo-tomac" (Potomac River). Who knew bridges took that long to build? Plus bored apes, bangers, and what "Real Feel IQ" would look like. MORE....

Czabe welcomes ol' pal BRIAN BUTCH to the show and they discuss the latest coaching drama in college basketball, as well as what winter Olympic sport would be the most terrifying. Maybe AI is about to usher in a golden age of new movies? Nobody asked for Mayweather vs. Tyson, but well, here we are. Also Puck News' JOHN OURAND tells us why NBC might have screwed itself with the NFL, by overpaying for the NBA. More....

Czabe and ANDY POLLIN hook up to discuss the hopeless state of the NBA's All-Star Weekend from soup to nuts. Every single metric, attitude, and soundbite is in the absolute shitter, and Adam Silver has run out of ideas. Even the bad ideas. Of which he finds many. The NFLPA somehow loses what should have been an easy arbitration win over their annual survey. The Canadians are cheatin' fucks when it comes to the "sport" of curling. And maybe giving your wife a $1M Ferrari for Valentine's is a sub-optimal idea. MORE.....
