Today’s word of the day is ‘final final’ as in the last live show of the year for NPDS! This is it! We have shows dropping everyday we’re gone, but I won’t be here! LeBron James finally said something about the NBA play. Too many 3s? Lack of hustle? What is the problem with the NBA right now? Sammy Sosa has said sorry to the Cubs and to fans. Sorry for what? Sosa has not been invited back to any Cubs event since he retired almost 2 decades ago. Woody Johnson and the Jets. What a mess. Madden ratings? Cmon. Kids showing up to the locker room? NPPOD. Top 5 movies of 2024. My top 5 shows of the year! We end the show and the year the same way we end every year… resolutions.

Today’s word of the day is ‘blocked’ as in Nolan Arenado as in the St. Louis Cardinals as in the Houston Astros. What happened here? Well, Arenado has a no-trade clause in his contract and he used it. Does this mean Arenado will never be a Cardinal? No. Charles Barkley continues to be public about his contract negotiations. Non-stop. It’s been months. And he continues to want us to care. College sports is all on the fans now. You have top tier schools begging fans to donate. Begging fans to buy merch. Begging fans to buy tickets. It’s all on the fans. Welcome to the NIL Era. Review: No Country for Old Men. Survivor Finale. NPPOD. The NFL QB Carousel continues to spin and spin and spin. At least 7 teams could be using a new QB this week. It’s Week 16! Aaron Rodgers is at it again.

Today’s word of the day is ‘Plan B2’ as in if Plan B doesn’t work you need a Plan B2 as in Cody Bellinger as in Max Fried as in Devin Williams as in the New York Yankees. The Yankees continue to add after losing out on the Juan Soto sweepstakes. The Yankees traded with the Chicago Cubs to acquire Bellinger for an older relief pitcher. Cubs are also throwing in some cash. Here is the latest on the Tampa Bay Rays new stadium. We had a county vote yesterday. Does it change anything? The Falcons gave Kirk Cousins $90 million guaranteed in March and 14 games later he has been benched. Woof! Review: Juror No. 2. The NBA announced a new format to the All-Star Game. Are you excited?? NPPOD – let’s discuss the NBA Cup. MLB released results of its pitching injury study. Why are there so many arm injuries?

Today’s word of the day is ‘breaking point’ as in Tom Brady as in Mark Davis as in the Las Vegas Raiders. The owner of the Raiders keeps being so vocal and so public about his wants for Tom Brady to have a huge voice in the organization. What? The TV analyst? Davis wants Brady to have input in the draft and coaching and everything! NPPOD. Is the NBA expanding to Vegas? The 49ers have suspended De’Vondre Campbell for the rest of the regular season. Woof. Diontae Johnson and the Ravens are taking another week off from each other. Review: Nutcrackers. So You Wanna Talk to Samson!? Someone asked me about Garrett Crochet and his comments since joining the Red Sox. How do you feel about it? Why are coaches taking pay cuts to pay the players? This is crazy to me. Mike Norvell gave $4.5 million back to start a new school campaign. Was this by choice?

Today’s word of the day is ‘adrenaline’ as in Patrick Mahomes as in the Chiefs as in an ankle injury. Mahomes left the Chiefs win with an ankle injury at a very bad time for the Chiefs. They have two games in the next 10 days and Mahomes might miss them. The Bills are on their tails for the top seed in the AFC. This is what the NFL set up with these schedules! Josh Allen made his case for MVP in a win vs the Lions. Another shootout. Josh Allen had another 4 TD day. Dan Campbell and the Lions made another head scratching decision. There was a major issue in Commanders-Saints. The refs stopped the clock with 9 seconds left and 4 seconds of real time happened before it started again. The Saints were able to clock the ball with 3 seconds left and scored on the next play. Commanders held on and were not happy. The Athletics made another trade. Another added starter. Another bigger contract. They have to spend! Kyle Tucker was traded to the Cubs. The Cubs keep making moves and won’t stop making moves. Why did the Astros make this trade? Review: The Apprentice. The Yankees went out and grabbed Devin Williams. Clay Holmes is on his way to the Mets. Juan Soto is on his way to the Mets. Signed Max Fried and now this. NPPOD. The Ishbia brothers want another team. This time it’s the Minnesota Twins. Colts RB Jonathan Taylor dropped the ball running into the end zone. Again? Why does this continue to happen!?

0:00 – Intro
0:45 – Mahomes ankle
6:50 – Allen MVP
15:16 – Ref problems
18:20 – Athletics trade

Today’s word of the day is ‘10-year plan’ as in 10 years as in Steve Cohen as in Juan Soto as in Scott Boras as in the New York Mets. Did you watch that press conference yesterday? Steve Cohen wants 2 to 4 championships from Soto. And he’s willing to pay for it all! Bill Belichick was introduced yesterday at UNC. I still cannot believe what we’re seeing. The contract is public. The money is public. College football is a brand new world. Review: Black Doves. Lions took season tickets away from a fan yesterday. The fan got into an incident with Packers head coach Matt LaFleur and the Lions agreed with the Packers coach. Uh oh. NPPOD. Did you see the 49ers-Rams game? It was bad. You know what is worse? Quitting on your team. A disaster for the 49ers, likely out of the postseason, and had LB De’Vondre Campbell walk off the field. Emirates Cup semifinals is here! Get excited! Hawks! Bucks! Thunder! Rockets!

0:00 – Intro
0:45 – Soto introduced
14:30 – Belichick introduced
26:17 – Review: Black Doves

Today’s word of the day is ‘back to school’ as in Bill Belichick as in the North Carolina Tar Heels as in college football as in who saw this coming? I cannot believe it. The college football has changed forever. Belichick is turning the college into a pro team. That’s the present we live in. This hiring completely shifts the landscape of the sport and how schools will operate. MLB Winter Meetings are over. The Red Sox responded to the Yankees and Blue Jays moves with a big trade for Garrett Crochet. Wow. Another trade between the Sox and Sox for a big time lefty starter? Hmmmm. Scott Boras is back. We love it. Corbin Burnes is Elvis? Pete Alonso is the Polar Express? Love it. Review: Pulp Fiction. Jimmy Butler’s agent sounded off on Shams yesterday. Wow. Haven’t seen something that public in a while. Steve Kerr had a huge meltdown yesterday in the loss to the Rockets. The Warriors are falling apart. The end is near. Dell Curry. Steph Curry. LeBron Curry.

Today’s word of the day is ‘drunken sailors’ as in deja vu as in repeat as in Yankees as in Brian Cashman as in the Yankees as in Max Fried. The Yankees signed Max Fried to the largest deal ever for a left-handed pitcher. A day after saying they wouldn’t spend wildly. They did it. They need pitching. They need hitting. They were going to spend! The Texas Rangers gave Nathan Eovaldi 3 years. Big money. Hmmm. They also made a late night trade for Jake Burger from the Marlins. Roki Sasaki’s agent met with the media yesterday to speak about possible landing spots. The issue Joel Wolfe said Sasaki is having is the Japanese media is being harsh on him. So will Sasaki land somewhere “soft” so the media leaves him be? Review: Conclave. Quick shoutout to Cubs legend Ryne Sandberg. Now onto Jed Hoyer and the Cubs. Seiya Suzuki could be traded. Why? Fans are not happy. Rob Manfred is in Tampa, not Dallas this week. Why? Because the stadium for the Rays needs to be built and there are big problems going on with the county. NPPOD.
