https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-ppx7g-92650b

Time for a little week in review… Stevie and Joe discuss the #Nationals and #MadMax surging and find themselves in first place in the NL East (or close to it)… JR Smith is an idiot that is too stupid to point-shave and we feel a little bad for #Lebron… #Capitals are bringing the noise to DC for Game3 on Saturday night and rumor has it 20 bald eagles will carry the flag to center ice before the puck drops… plus, #RumpMeetsTrump and the disaster that is Disney/ESPN and their hiring of Keith Olbermaan and firing of Roseanne Barr… plus a whole lot more.

JR Soils Bed; LeBron nets 51; Warriors in 3

Well, that was awkward… Lebron has 51 points, JR Smith can’t read, victory to the Warriors, and they may win this series in three games! There are no words to describe the actions and lack of awareness displayed by JR Smith.. only meme’s (ThxTwitter). Kevin Love showed he still has fight in him, but ultimately the Cavs came up short in overtime. The Warriors had stunning performances from their studs and look in command of the series. LP, Canada, and Joe breakdown game one and discuss adjustments both teams should look to make before game two and figure out how and what to do with JR Smith because his situation is terrible. + Mo Salah cleared for the World Cup, Twitter burn accounts, and a random Mystics schedule update. 

NBA Finals Preview; Rematch x4; Eight Years of LeBron

The (most boring) NBA Finals have arrived… (but we are spicing things up with some NBA on NBC theme music!)… #Warriors vs #LeBron for the 4th straight year… how does anyone get excited about that? Well, maybe we aren’t excited, but we still love basketball, and still will watch, so let’s set the table for the series which begins on Thursday night… afterall LeBron was right, “not 1, not 2, not 3…” he has been to 8 straight finals, which is incredible to consider as many of us were still in school or hadn’t met our spouses… eight years ago #ESPN was still relevant, and #Drake hadn’t released an album yet… must less a “dis-track”. Justin Blaze (@jusblaze_513) from the Above the Rim Podcast joins Joe to preview the matchup and make some predictions for the series and also for the #Wizards and the offseason staring Ernie G in the face. If you love the #NBA give this episode a listen, and share it too!

Big Z has landed in LA and the MLS will never be the same. (Who doesn’t love some soccer talk?!) Locally however the Wizards look horrible dropping games to the Bulls and Rockets, while the Nationals give up seven with Max on the mound, and the Redskins have more rumors to to deal with about problems between Bruce and Dan… oh yea, and RG3 was just signed by the Ravens… for unknown reasons. In short, business as usual in and around DC and LP and Joe are here to break it all down. Listen and share!
