This Pod episode recaps; NFL Week 16, NBA Christmas Games, and Team Canada's first two games at the World Juniors.

Timestamps Approximate:

Starting off in Football Fancave (02:14) Owen brings Max up to speed on all of NFL Week 16s most significant action and the implications that follow. The Green Bay Packers coming close to locking up the 1 seed after another squeaky win, the Arizona Cardinal continuing to choke away another strong start, The Bengals merciless record setting beatdown of the Ravens, the Jets losing the tankbowl (by winning against the Jaguars), The Bills revenge win against the Patriots, and the Chiefs and Cowboys blowout statements.

In BBall Storylines (16:20) We talk the good the bad and the ugly of the Christmas day games: from Giannis's highlight block, to Westbrook's clutch dunk gone awry to Harden's nut shot on Tucker (we'll leave it to you to guess which is which). With some more serious game analysis in there as well.

We wrap up Talkin' Hockey (31:22) with the World Juniors underway. Recording as Canada pummelled Austria, we talk a bit about the team play and significant players (Power anyone?) in the win over team Czeckia. Max giving his take on why he likes this team for Gold already, as well as some notes on the Austria game while it was underway.
