Excited to release another jam packed, fast paced podcast to the masses as I entertain and inform on all of the latest that’s happening in sports. On deck:
(3:59) I start off with a shameless plug (for those who watch and follow me on my YouTube channel @JAYREELZ) as I posted a new vlog detailing my 1,000 subscribers before getting a haircut update, which is testing my accountability and patience, but not what you may think!
(4:41) NOTE: I made a mention that in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the two West matchups that have a Game 1 tonight (Vegas-Dallas & LA-Edmonton) were Vegas-Edmonton and LA-Dallas. A terrible FAUX PAS on my part, but I did catch myself JUST IN TIME when I preview in the NHL segment. My apologies for the egregious error. THANKFULLY, I caught it as I was able to pivot and discuss the RIGHT series and not what I thought it was! NOW…Game 1’s in the NBA first round of the playoffs are in the books. No surprises as the home teams won all of them. Does this bode well for the big underdogs (ex. Sixers, Heat, Lakers, in particular) heading into Game 2? I’ll go through each series and how this could play out over the course of the next few days? I’ll get into the Knicks grit over Philadelphia. The Heat’s Caleb Martin’s bump on Celtics Jayson Tatum. The Bucks solid win without Giannis. The T-Wolves maturity? How the Suns have a lot to answer to, despite a lack of depth? James Harden’s proclamation after GM 1. The Lakers shot vs. the defending champs and much more!
(25:01) You had the same theme in the NHL as six of the eight series has begun, where the home team was victorious. Can the Islanders and Capitals get back in their series? The wild opening game in Winnipeg with the Jets vs. Avalanche. Boston dominating the Maple Leafs. Vancouver showing resolve against Nashville. And after my huge error thinking it was Vegas-Oilers and Kings-Stars, I’ll share my prediction on who’ll come out of the Vegas-Stars and Kings-Oilers series.
(41:34) Baseball is creeping toward the first month of their season. What is stark at the moment? The difference between the good teams and the very BAD teams. There are a number of teams that have been awful to date. Colorado, Miami, Oakland even Houston is off to a 7-16 start. How about the White Sox at 3-18? 3-18!!! I’ll unpack how the MLB could be in for a long summer with the disparity between the haves and have nots.
(54:04) Draftniks & draft geeks are pumped up as the NFL Draft is on Thursday. I’ll tease what the outlook of the first five or six picks of the draft may go as it’s a quarterback heavy top of the draft where Chicago (for sure), Washington (very likely) and New England (well, maybe or maybe not) will look to change the fortune of their franchises and select Caleb Williams from USC, Jayden Daniels from LSU and Drake Maye from UNC, quite possibly in that order.
