The boys tip-off today's blockbuster episode by welcoming on the AV's very own Robert of Fat Boys Tacos for a special announcement that has us all very excited!Then it's onto the NFL where Shedeur Sanders' fall to day 3 of the draft stole the headlines, but there were several winners & losers according to the fellas as they breakdown the 1st Round of the Draft. How will the Jaguars deploy their new shiny toy in Travis Hunter? Plus, not so high marks for the Cowboys, while Mikee, Chris, and Justin should all be happy with their 1st Rd choices. And, of course, no draft breakdown would not be complete without a discussion as to what happened with Shedeur Sanders? The boys have their thoughts...Next it's onto the NBA where the playoffs are in full-swing. Top-seeds OKC & Cleveland made mincemeat out of the Grizzlies & Heat, the latter in record-setting fashion. Plus the boys discuss the incredible series between the Nuggets & Clippers and of course the surprising early exits of both Chris's Bucks & Mikee's Lakers in just 5 games to the Pacers & T-Wolves, respectively.

Welcome back all to the BALLS AND BEARDS PODCAST! In today's all-NBA Season 5 Episode 10, the boys have you covered with a full rundown of both the Eastern & Western Conferences as teams make their final push for playoff positioning ahead of the postseason. The East is pretty well set, but the West is far from decided as the #2 - #8 spots are yet to be decided... The Warriors are continuing their climb up the standings, the Grizzlies continue to slide, and the Rockets, Lakers, and Nuggets remain in the thick of things. OKC has already easily wrapped-up the top spot, but there is much to be decided in the juggernaut that is the Western Conference.Then it's time to give out some hardware - Balls and Beards style! That's right, its the BALLS AND BEARDS PODCAST NBA AWARDS. The fellas give you their picks for Rookie of the Year, Most Improved Player, 6th Man of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, Coach of the Year, and MVP.

So who takes home the BALLS AND BEARDS Hardware??As always, before wrapping up Season 5 Episode 10, the boys had their Golden Beard of the Week nominees, and man there are some great selections this week!

Welcome back all to the BALLS AND BEARDS PODCAST! In today's Season 5 Episode 9, the boys have you covered with a FULL RECAP from what was a very busy start to NFL Free Agency. The Commanders loaded up around young star QB Jayden Daniels, the Bears beefed up & retooled their O-line; plus trades, big signings, and will Aaron Rodgers finally make a decision? Plus the Cowboys & 49ers stand pat, the Eagles lose some key players from their Super Bowl Title-winning defense, and the Seahawks were incredibly active, trading both star WR DK Metcalf & QB Geno Smith, while bringing Sam Darnold. What does it all mean? Who were the big NFL Free Agency winners & losers? The boys have you covered with a full breakdown & recap of all of the exciting off-season activity. Then it's onto the NBA where we are inching closer toward the playoffs. The West has become a jumbled, heated juggernaut as OKC continues to distance themselves from the pack, but the Nuggets, Lakers, surging Rockets, and Grizzlies all find themselves just two games apart while jostling for position between the 2-5 spots. In the East, it's same old same old as the top 6 are pretty well set in stone by this point, and we are trending toward having a pair of historically bad teams make the play-in. Lastly, it wouldn't be an episode without the Golden Beard of the Week Award! Last week Mikee got back in the win column, and then we had a first for this week as both Mikee & Justin had the same nominee! Will their joint-nominee take home the Award or will it be Chris's turn?All of that plus much, much more - including a fun 'March Madness' story from yesteryear as the NCAA Tournament is in full-swing.

It was a huge weekend in the world of the NFL, as Justin's Eagles won their 10th straight game, while the Lions fell to Buffalo in a possible Super Bowl Preview. With the loss, however, the Lions fell to 12-2, and now have the same record as both Philly & the Vikings. Could the Lions end up blowing the 1-seed and falling all the way back to a Wild Card as both the injuries and questionably aggressive coaching are starting to catch up? The boys discuss... Then it's on to the NFC West - is it Mikee's Cardinals? Or will the Rams maintain their super slim lead? The 49ers are done, and so maybe are the Seahawks after Sunday nights home loss shellacking to Chris's Packers.

Welcome back all to the BALLS AND BEARDS PODCAST!! The boys are back with a monster show for Season 4 Episode 16!

Philly is now humming at 8-2, having won 6 straight. Are they a threat to the Lions in the NFC? There were a pair of massive games in the AFC as well, with the Bills becoming the first team to take down the Chiefs after some late-game heroics from QB Josh Allen.

Cavs, Celtics, Warriors, and Thunder are the best in the league, but there is a long, long way to go, except for maybe the Sixers, the fellas have zero faith in an in-season turnaround in Philly.
