Hot Seat/Cool Throne including Hank trying to cheat and Rovell losing his mind and going radio silent over the Northwestern news (-). Mt Rushmore of Triangles. Eagles TE Dallas Goedert joins the show to talk ball, growing up in South Dakota, playing college football as a way bigger player, unicycles and tons more (-). We finish with guys on chicks (-).

MLB has the most competitive All-Star game of any major sport

Somehow Baseball does have the most competitive All-Star game when you look across every sport. Yes. They all sucked. They all sucked.

This is subjective but a common sentiment among sports fans who find the Pro Bowl and NBA All-Star games to be non-competitive.

The Home Run Derby should replace the kids in the outfield with fat, drunk adults who we can laugh at for getting hit

I'd rather, if it weren't kids out there, why not just get a bunch of fat like college 20 to 30 year old kids, guys drunk as hell. Fat, like sloppy fat, just falling on their face, getting hit with balls, all that stuff. Cuz then we can laugh as a country, we can laugh at them.

Hot TakeBaseballHotSarcastic
The MLB has not replaced the children with drunk adults as of the 2024 Home Run Derby.

Players caught using steroids should be able to win their freedom back by winning the Home Run Derby

I was thinking that they could incorporate a rule change where if a player gets busted for steroids, they could then elect compete in the home run Derby to win their freedom to win their way out. If they win the home run Derby, they get to come back for the rest of the year and they get to continue using steroids for the rest of the year.

Hot TakeBaseballFireSarcastic
MLB has not implemented a 'win your freedom via dingers' rule for PED suspensions.

The stamina-based Home Run Derby format is inferior to the old 'out-based' format

They've screwed it up. I know what it used to be with the 10 outs. It took forever cuz guys were just taking pitches. But yet again, we have a home run Derby where we just, it's essentially a stamina competition of who can hit the fastest home runs and it has nothing to do with the long ball. I want that back.

This is a subjective opinion on entertainment value.

Chief Aholic is a modern-day Robin Hood who we shouldn't be castigating

Chief Aholic is basically a modern day Robin Hood. Stole from the banks, gave to himself and we're, we're castigating him for it. We're throwing him in jail maybe for the rest of his life. It feels messed up.

Chief Aholic (Xaviar Michael Babudar) was sentenced to prison in 2024 for a multi-state bank robbery spree.

Anyone who says 'I turned out fine' regarding their childhood trauma actually didn't turn out fine

Anyone who says I turned out fine, there you are. Not fine. About anything, anything. It could be like X Y, Z happened to me when I was a kid. I turned out fine. 'I smoked, my father made me smoke cigarettes when I was five years old. Look how I turned out.' I'm fine. Yeah, I'm great.

This is a psychological observation and inherently subjective.

Urban Meyer would be a great choice for the next Northwestern head coach

I think one thing we can all agree on though is a great choice for the next Northwestern head coach would be Urban Meyer. Ooh, yes. Let's get urban back in the conversation. Not afraid to get his hands dirty. The guy is a molder of young men and let's just get urban back into the Big 10.

Hot TakeCFBScorchingSarcastic
Northwestern did not hire Urban Meyer; they promoted David Braun to permanent head coach after the 2023 season.

South Dakota is the 'cool Dakota' while North Dakota is for people who aren't cool

North Dakota is kind of like where people go that aren't cool. And like South Dakota's the cool Dakota. Okay. Really? It's just like Canada didn't want 'em. So like we'll just give 'em North Dakota.

The quality of 'coolness' for a state is purely subjective.

Jalen Hurts is a top two or top three quarterback in the NFL

I think Jay has to be at the top. Yes. Personally speaking, Jalen's in the top two and depending on what fan base we want to antagonize. But personally speaking, Jalen's in the top two and top three.

Quarterback rankings are subjective matters of opinion.

Car time is for listening to podcasts, not for talking

Not for talking. Car time is for listening. When is he supposed to make these business calls in the car? On the golf course? Yeah.

This is a subjective preference for road trip behavior.
