    Hopefully Matt gets a new sidekick soon or this show won’t last. Listening to just Matt for an entire hr is unbearable.

    Fairly recent listener to the pod. Unfortunately I started listening just when Dave went into the hospital. The massive outpouring of support and love for Dave and his family is quite remarkable. What a guy. Sure wish I would’ve listened earlier. Can’t get enough of Matt.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

NBA Play-In Tourney Continues and Coach James Young joins 4.15.26
Q: Coach, last night's play with LaMelo Ball and Bam Adebayo has a lot of people talking about whether Ball should have been ejected. How did you view that play as a coach?
It looked dirty and deserved review; there should have been a call or ejection, and Spolstra's stance reflected that. In a high-stakes playoff context, you expect cleaner discipline from stars, but the game continued with Ball making a game-winning shot.
National Title Game Preview UConn vs Michigan 4.6.26
Q: Jim, if the folks want to follow you tonight or after the game for a recap, where can they find your stuff?
You can follow me on Twitter at Second Chance Points; I write for The Athletic and Basket Under Review, and I contribute to transfer portal analyses and fit rankings.
Vacation is over. DBro joins to talk Combine 2.25.26
Q: If I'm the Jets, what's the best non-quarterback to take with the second pick and why edge rusher vs. safety like Reuben Bain or Caleb Downs?
For the Jets, the practical approach is to prioritize an edge rusher with high ceiling if the board aligns, but Caleb Downs offers transformative potential at safety; the decision hinges on the team's defense scheme and the value of the top defender versus the immediate impact of a pass rusher.
Vacation is over. DBro joins to talk Combine 2.25.26
Q: When that happens, let's get to our guide, DBro. How would you assess Mendoza's top-five pitching in this draft and his fit for teams like the Raiders?
Mendoza is a top-five value if you account for positional scarcity and his overall trait set; he could be a long-term starter with the right coaching and system, though he isn't on the Burrow level. Teams drafting high should consider him seriously, but must also weigh the surrounding supporting cast and development curve.
Super Bowl Media Row Day 2 presented by Kutt 2.6.26
Q: How do you think about the NIL situation?
I think it's a mistake if he does that, I think he does empty the clip, in terms of the best plays that he's been keeping for Sam Darnold.
