What a roller coaster of emotions this episode turned out to be! We kick off with stories from our best friend’s wedding.
We then pivot to the highs and lows of the college football season. We're talking big games, big plays, and big surprises. From Georgia's clash with South Carolina and Florida's triumph over Tennessee to Florida State's narrow victory over Boston College, we cover it all. We reflect on the impact of Spencer Rattler's transfer to South Carolina and the crucial role played by Tennessee’s Jaylen Hyatt in the Giants' comeback.
But that's not all, folks. We cast the spotlight on Alabama's offensive line issues and the stellar play of Heisman candidate Michael Penix Jr for the Washington Huskies. We also discuss the heated double-overtime thriller between Colorado and Colorado State, and debate Colorado State's head coach's decision to feed Coach Prime some bulletin board material.
We then welcome on our friend and professional baseball player Matt Feinstein to discuss the MLB season and give his predictions on the MLB Playoffs.
For the meat of today’s episode we recap Week 2 of the NFL Season with our new format. Each week Adam and I will each be bringing forward 1 storyline, 1 surprise (good or bad), 1 disappointment, and 1 matchup we’re looking forward to in the upcoming week.
As always, we have our fan favorite Random Awards Segment and to finish up, we introduce our new segment, the Bold Prediction of the Year of the Week, where we pull no punches with our hottest predictions.
From deep dives into the games to lighthearted banter about our favorite (and not so favorite) teams and players, this episode is packed to the brim with all the sports talk you could ever want. No stone is left unturned, and trust us, you don't want to miss our hot takes and bold predictions! Thanks for listening to Episode 22 of the Breaks-down!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
