Going For 2: Episode 30 is LIVE!
We currently find ourselves in the best time of the sports calendar.
The MLB Postseason is just getting started with essentially four play-in games before we even get to the Division Series. We give our thoughts on the upcoming series and throw in a few series picks in there as well.
Last week was a huge week in College Football. Penn State fell to Ohio State in a big top-ten matchup, and we have some thoughts on the game. Plus, Notre Dame might have shown they are good enough to play with the top teams. Listen to hear who we think could be this year’s surprise team and challenge in the SEC.
Hockey is back! If you know us, you know we love our Penguins. There are plenty of question marks on the Penguins team, but we think they all have pretty good upsides. Check out who we think will step up in Pittsburgh this year.
The NFL has been exciting so far this season. High-scoring games, star players coming out of nowhere, and even some controversy. Who are our favorite teams? Which team do we think could be a surprise team this year?
Next, it’s on to the Steelers. Ugh. How can they fix this abomination? Is there hope for the Steelers this season? You should hear our thoughts.
Our Fantasy Football Good, Bad, and Ugly returns this episode. We give you a little bit of injury news and tell you who you need to pick up in fantasy on your waiver wire.
Finally, we end the show with our One Awesome Thing In Sports, and they both are about hockey. Jimi talks about a charity effort sponsored by the Penguins Matt Murray, and Andy gives the NHL’s Department of Player Safety some praise … finally.
Enjoy!
