Ep 69 NBA Draft & NHL Free Agency

Two of the biggest days in the sporting world happening in the same week so we can talk about about them both on the pod!

Timestamps Approximate

We kick off with a quick Tokyo Bros (02:17) segment for Olympic coverage: Talking Canada's female swimming success, Basketball shaping up, and each of us weighing in on Simone Biles.

In Football Fancave (08:44), Owen continues to update on Aaron Rodgers and the Packers, as it seem the two have reached an understanding.

Talkin' Hockey (11:44), we get into Free Agency, as we drown ourselves in headlines discussing the riskiest moves, the biggest winners and losers, Dougie Hamilton to the Devils, all things Toronto Maple Leafs, Ovechkins chances at Gretzky's record and Laine's 1 year gamble.

BBall Storylines (36:24) We start off discussing the big Memphis, New Orleans trade, than move on to the 76ers absurd asking price for Ben Simmons, and the Westbrook Lakers trade. We then time travel to the draft itself (46:10) and run through picks #1-16.
