On this episode of my mix-it-up minutes, MLB firings have started as the Bostin Red Sox have fired their entire coaching staff. Mets and Phillies and Astros are also off to terrible starts and more firings could be on the way.NBA and NHL playoffs are in full swing, Lakers are taking care of business and what is up with Kevin Durant? Nuggets in trouble but have a path to get out of it with Anthony Edwards injury, and Pistons and Cavs need the next game or they are in trouble. On the NHL side, Sabres are making the most of their first appearance in 14 years, the Avs look to move on, a brawl in the Penguins-Flyers series and will a Canadian team win it this year?Then I touch on the Vrabel/Russini scandal and give my take, which I hope is the end of this saga.

My NFL Draft recap talks about the main storylines of picks in mainly round 1, talking some players that fell, potential steals and some questionable decisions as well.

Welcome to the Clock Never Stops Mock Draft: GM Version!GM Version is where I become the General Manager of all 32 teams and make every 1st round selection based on what I would do if I were the GM of each team selecting.Parameters are that I do go by draft grades and projections, so there aren't any "wild" picks, I want to be as logical as possible when making these picks. I also want to use certain tendencies with them, for example if a team tends to stack positions or is aggressive with trading up. And yes, trading is allowed! It has to make sense for both teams but as GM of every team, I am able to trade amongst myself.This is a Mock Draft based on what I think they should do, not what I think they are going to do and I give my reasoning for each move after each selection! I hope you find this entertaining and a fun listen, even if you don't agree with everything...

On this episode, the NBA tanking issue has once again reared it's ugly head and this is my proposed solution on how to fix it. The NBA is always looking at ways to curb teams from tanking and are proposing new rules to the NBA lottery to do just that. It doesn't have to be this in-depth and difficult though as I bring up my anti-tanking plan that is not only simple but hits teams at the root of their tanking strategy: their draft picks.

The 2025-26 men's college basketball season is now over and congrats to the Michigan Wolverines for winning the national championship by defeating UConn 69-63!Recap of the game, my thoughts on both teams struggles with shooting the ball and how the refs could have impacted the way they played. Michigan gets it going a bit in the 2nd half and never looked back, even with UConn making a mini-run in final minute.Then, discussion on why Michigan was the most complete team of the season and how they really had no weakness that was enough to exploit. Mix in transfer talk and what it says about Coach Dusty May's coaching with how they put the team together and that it's not a negative towards them.

On this episode, I discuss NIL in college sports and what is needed to make it a more fluid system. I bring up the potential for salary cap or even player cap then dive into the problems of "outside" money not being on the books and the tampering that goes on to get players in the transfer portal.This podcast stems from a previous podcast "Has NIL killed Cinderella?" as a listener asked me what I think needs changed with NIL to make it more regulated.

The mix-it-up minutes podcast is an episode where I spend some time talking about a few topics rather than having a singular topic or theme for the podcast. This episode discusses Tiger Woods' car accident and suspicion of DUI arrest, the NBA trying to once again limit or get rid of tanking with new proposed rules for it, MLB opening day schedule and the ABS system and the NFL entering "smokescreen season" as the bad takes and rumors are spreading around.

Cinderella's have been missing from the last 2 men's March Madness tournaments and is NIL the reason why?I give my thoughts on why it's more complicated than just blaming NIL and the transfer portal rules, as college basketball has changed across the entire landscape. This dives into the other factors and the effect that NIL has on them, from conference expansion to less opportunities for mid-majors to advanced metrics being used to determine the bubble.
