In this free-wheeling episode, the fellas talk Erik’s life as a new Dad, Ezra’s recollection of the bygone era of late-night AM SportsTalk Radio, Joe’s questionable nutrition choices in high school, and the frightening potential of a newborn baby with the mental acuity of an 18-year old. Then we talk how FSU got completely screwed by the playoff system, but would we have done it differently if we were the committee? Sponsor read ensues with an important message on cashing your checks, we check in on the NFL playoff picture, and ponder whether the Chiefs or Eagles are more likely to return to the Super Bowl. Then, NBA in-season tournament chatter follows, where the guys debate whether it’s been a success or not and what could make it better for next year, we pick the official High Jinx NBA team of the tournament, talk Mark Cuban’s sale of the Mavericks, pick the High Jinx and Low Jinx games of the week in the NFL during Unnecessary Bets, and close the show with Crystal Ball, where we talk MLB hot stove, Division II (now FCS) college football playoffs, and pick Shohei Ohtani’s next destination.
