Big Rings

While Rob was on the IR with a severe case of Election Brain, society collapsed and now there are no more sports. We talk to The Athletic's Blake Murphy about missing the Raptors, their extremely fun and impressive season getting cut short, unresolved storylines, the bizarroworld sports future and a lot more.

A Big Rings cat update, our NBA All Star reserve picks (and the bizarre new rules for the game) plus our attempt at an honest discussion on the legacy of the late Kobe Bryant. Plus: another Nick Nurse heat check.

The logistics of Olympic moshing, a Raptors update, virtue signalling in the NFL playoffs, which remaining QB is the biggest dreamboat, sports movies and much more in another action-packed episode of Big Rings

The Big Rings classic lineup returns to discuss the fallout to the Don Cherry racist poppy debacle, celebrate the Raptors' highly successful start to the season and also talk about Christmas games, Trudeau's machiavellian power play of bringing the Canadian Elite Basketball League to the CBC, and the time Tannara was almost roped into an international drug trafficking conspiracy.

Tannara was sick this week so Sportsnet's Justin Morissette joined us to talk a whole lot about rasslin! We also took some time to get into our complicated emotions surrounding the first week or so of Toronto Raptors basketball (recorded before the Lowry/Ibaka injuries unfortunately)

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau drops by to endorse the sovereignty of Big Rings Nation, we manage to talk about the NBA/China controversy while not being cancelled and still upholding Xi Jinping thought, and eventually we get around to talking about the Toronto Raptors upcoming season.

It's October baby! Lauren explains to us what is going on in the world of baseball and pitches (!) us on why we should be paying to the sport. Hugh eats a sandwich and updates us on how he, personally, cursed the NY Jets season through blasphemy. Also, a conversation on whether Nick Nurse is hot nearly tears the podcast apart.

We talk about some of the pertinent NFL news from Jay Z to Andrew Luck, try to avoid the ire of the Beyhive and also talk about Mao? there's some other stuff in there too

3: The Iceman Cometh by Big Rings

Kawhi Leonard is a Clipper and we try to remain optimistic. also: the take economy, the women's world cup, and our first podcast beef.

The Raptors have won the championship! What is even happening? We struggle to come to terms with what that means and also talk about toxic sports fandom, nationalism, Masai Ujiri getting carded and more.
