National Championship Recap, NFL Draft Talk & Lakers Injury Crisis

from Don't Quote Us Sports

It's Episode 48 and life has been happening — Isaiah's coming off a Cam Whitcomb concert in NC and Erb has big news: a move to a new townhouse is on the horizon. That means one thing — furniture shopping, and apparently Bob's Discount Furniture isn't quite the deal it advertises. We also solve the age-old debate of Charmander vs. Bulbasaur (one of us is wrong), and Isaiah floats the idea of theater seating in Erb's new living room.Once we get into sports, we start by giving the Michigan Wolverines their proper flowers after a dominant national championship run — 19-point average margin of victory and a story for the ages in Elliott Cadell, the point guard UNC didn't want who became the heartbeat of a title team. We also discuss the curse of Tarris Reed, the case for moving basketball games back out of football stadiums, and the Bulls' quiet blessing of missing the play-in entirely.Then it's NFL Draft season. Fernando Mendoza is all but locked in at #1 to the Raiders, but we dig into whether the Jets are behind a suspicious smear campaign, the Laremy Tunsil/bong mask energy of the Ty Simpson situation, and who the most surprising first-round pick might be (Caleb Downs falling out of the top 10? Drew Allar going way earlier than you think?). We also settle the Mendoza vs. Simpson debate once and for all — kind of.The Lakers' injury nightmare is real. Luka's in Spain getting hamstring injections. Reeves is out 4-6 weeks. Their title odds collapsed from 30-1 to 300-1. We break down what a healthy-roster-free first round looks like against Houston and ask the big question: what does the LeBron contract situation look like this summer — and is he actually willing to prove he wants to win?Angel Reese is heading to Atlanta. The Chicago Sky got two first-rounders and what might be a fresh start. We give it the respect it deserves.And finally — Masters Week. Rory's defending. Scheffler's rusty. Bryson fits the 10 and 20-year statistical profile of a winner exactly. Isaiah likes Matt Fitzpatrick as a sleeper. We talk Tommy Fleetwood's kid stealing the Par 3 show, Matsuyama getting the respect he deserves, and why Master's merch has officially gone too far. No Tiger. No Phil. For the first time since 1994.No Take Too Hot and Nothing Fully Verified.
