Ep 45: Bop It!

It was a chaotic day for Max, but we do our best to use the world of sports as an escape with lots of Baseball, Basketball, Hockey, UFC action, as well as the NFL Draft!

 

Timestamps Approximate:

 

We start Talkin’ Hockey (03:37). The Leafs continue to role with contributions from all four lines. The Jets continue to slide, leading to a tighter finish for the third seed in the North Division. Connor McDavid continues to get closer to greatness with another 3 pts against the Flames. Finally, we talk a little about the NHL/EPSN/TNT news and the great Edmonton star in the NHL.

 

In Combat Corner (15:55), Max breaks down a main event that ended with a crazy spinning elbow. Where will Reyes/Procházka go from here? 

We move on to the Baseball Bit (23:47) where Owen breaks down a successful weekend sweep for the Blue Jays over the Braves. There was the first two Springer Dingers, some offensive production from the catchers, more Grichuk clutch hits, and consistent pitching.

Bball Storylines (27:50) breaks down the great matchup today between the Nets and Bucks and gave us a sneak peek into what a potential playoff series could look like. The boys touch on the Wizards 9 seed chances, the return of Lamelo Ball, Tatum’s 60, the play of Khem Birch, more OG talk, Lebron’s return, MPJ’s hot streak, and the possible playoff positioning by the Suns and Jazz. 

Finally, Owen gives his takeaways on the NFL Draft in the Football Fan Cave (39:21). He talks about the QBs taken in the first round, the corners taken at 8 and 9, and the opportunity of a lifetime for a potential Brady successor.
