Thoughts on the ND-OSU game last night from a reasonable Irish fan’s perspective:

First off, I think I watched a different game than everyone else last night because people giving credit to Ohio State and thinking this validates them as a playoff contender is laughable. Why do I believe that?

1. Preseason rankings are a joke. Notre Dame was not a top 5 team going into that game in the slightest because of what they lost from last year. The “top 5 matchup” being promoted was all for eyeballs and ratings. The Irish will win 8-9 games this year and be a back end top 25 team because of how solid their defense is again.

2. Notre Dames offensive play calling coupled with a scared/inaccurate quarterback made Ohio States defense look good. Besides 2 lucky plays Notre Dame may not have scored all game. Buchner couldn’t throw an on target pass all night and was repeatedly bailed out by his receivers.

3. Ohio State is not a title contender and may not even get out of the Big Ten let alone are on the same planet as Alabama/Georgia.

4. I don’t get the CJ Stroud hype. 2nd big game ive seen him play and to think he’s in heisman conversation is something I don’t get. He’s a good college QB and that’s about it. Definitely elevated by his receivers and gets inflated stats on the cupcakes they beat up every year.

5. Last but not least, ESPN has to take Herbstreit off Ohio State games for the foreseeable future. The bias is so obvious and it’s nauseating.

Let me know what you all think below and if I’m right, wrong, or crazy.

What kind of excuse are the LeBron defenders going to make this time? Guy gives up at the end of the season and team doesn’t even make the play in game. Definitely not and never will be my 🐐

https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/06/sports/basketball/lakers-eliminated-playoffs.html

The loss to the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday sealed their fate. It’s the second time the Lakers will miss the postseason since LeBron James joined the team in 2018.

Hey all, I’ve been enjoying my birthday today so my last episode for the season will drop tomorrow.

Talk to you all then!

03/02/2022

Hey all, I’m gonna be real about the podcast lately. The motivation and drive just has not been there. It’s felt like a chore and I always said that if it turned into that then I would stop doing it.

With that being said, I think I’m going to do 1 more show next week for the Super Bowl and take a hiatus like last year.

Could this be the cycle for the show? Maybe. But as for now, this podcast has felt like a burden for the last month or so and that’s not a healthy state to put out quality episodes for you.

One final episode for next week. Plans for after that? Who knows. Regardless, I’ll keep you all updated as for what I decide and appreciate every single one of you who has supported and listened to this podcast to this point.

Thank you.

While the NFL OT rules are fine for the regular area season, they are atrocious for the playoffs. The Bills not getting a chance to answer that is a travesty. No reason why they shouldn’t just play another full quarter with less time.

Feel awful for Bills fans. Incredible game and Josh Allen played perfect yet still came up short. Prevent defense once again proves it doesn’t work and the decision to play soft on the Chiefs game tying drive was the reason they lost. Awesome and a shame at the same time.

It’s hilarious watching the NFL, NHL, and NBA set fire to themselves over renewed COVID fear. Literally doing this all to try to be politically correct in the public eye. Them saying they are “following the science” with their policies shows how brain dead and sheepified they truly are.

How do we fix this?

NHL, NBA, NFL: “QUICK, MORE STRICT ENFORCEMENT OF WHAT WE’VE ALREADY BEEN DOING!”

Make it make sense.

Hey all, I hate to say it but I will not be able to post my podcast episode today as I ran out of time to record the episode before heading to work.

I did not get up early enough to finish prep and work has been brutal lately as I have been getting home an hour and a half later than usual which has thrown off my schedule.

I want to give you the best quality for each episode and wanted to include some sound bites in this weeks episode but the time to do that is not going to be enough for today.

That being said, I will record and post the new episode tomorrow. I hope you all understand and know that I’m extremely frustrated that I will not get this episode out to you all on time. I apologize. Talk to you all soon. - Jake

I know he gets a lot of flak because of how he’s declined in his latter years but Big Ben will have my utmost respect for how tough the guy is and has been his whole crareer.
