4.1 out of 5 stars from 152 ratings
  • HQ for Cleveland Sports

    I’ve been listening to these guys for all of my adult life (and I’m old) but I don’t live in Cleveland any more. This show helps ease my pain and I’ve been listening to this show since the beginning but I haven’t rated until now because I had to speak my peace.

    The BA & BA (Brian Andersons) episode was TREMENDOUS! I had to pause the show multiple times to catch my breath and my face hurt from laughing.

    Keep bringing Cleveland sports to the masses guys. Thank you!

    I enjoy Jeff & Andy’s honesty. I also enjoy Packer Fan Dan as well chiming in.

    Their perspectives are usually very well thought out, and communicated.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Adam Caplan on the Shedeur Sanders vs. Deshaun Watson QB Battle
Q: If the quarterback competition stays close, would the rookie's thumb be on the scale at all?
Caplan indicates it will be up to the coach (Monken) and staff, with the front office influence limited; the decision should be based on readiness and performance regardless of rookie status.
Adam Caplan on the Shedeur Sanders vs. Deshaun Watson QB Battle
Q: Who do you like in this competition?
Caplan suggests it's very even, with Watson's veteran presence giving him a small edge if he remains healthy and performs in preseason, but the decision will hinge on who earns the most, not past reputation.
Hour 4: Danny Green + so what do the Cavs do now?
Q: What are you doing to improve the Cavaliers this off-season, Danny, given the LeBron news and the current roster?
Danny suggests staying proactive with the core they already have, possibly pursuing players who can complement Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley, while not overpaying for legacy fits. He notes keeping young, athletic pieces and evaluating fit for the pick-and-roll with Mobley and Allen.
Danny Green Shocked by LeBron's Philly Move: He Wasn't Ring Chasing
Q: Are the Cavaliers regretful about the James Harden trade or the Darius Garland/James contrast still on the table?
The discussion suggests no clear regret yet, with emphasis on evaluating long-term fit and the possibility of pursuing better surrounding pieces rather than regret over past trades.
Danny Green Shocked by LeBron's Philly Move: He Wasn't Ring Chasing
Q: What does this mean for the Cavaliers' offseason and how they should approach surrounding Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley?
The Cavs likely need to stay proactive, explore adding a complementary piece, and preserve younger core pieces like Evan Mobley, while acknowledging the loss of players and the need to optimize the pick-and-roll dynamics.
