We talk about…video games? (6:09) before wondering about the College Football Playoff rankings and talking about Texas Tech (9:02), and then we talk about the NFL, from the Cowboys-Chiefs upcoming game Sunday, especially from the Chiefs perspective as they come off a good win (14:49), other NFL teams including the whole NFC West and the Seahawks (23:42) that goes off into a tangent about NFL head coaches and Jared Goff (31:52). The break further goes into Goff as a joke (37:32) before Nathan tells the story, using a NY Post article, about Plaxico Burress shooting himself in the thigh (40:48). Finally, we finish with talk about the NBA, from the MVP race, specifically Steph Curry, Nikola Jokic, and their respective teams as the Warriors are feeling it (43:47), the Dallas Mavericks and Kristaps Porzingis becoming what the Mavs have wanted (51:28), how the rule change has affected NBA play (56:29), and we close talking about the Lakers and how they still can't figure it out (1:01:20).
