Boomer on Hall of Fame snubs of coaching legends Tom Coughlin and Mike Shanahan. Will Gisele will attend Tom Brady's eventual induction. A caller brings up video of Jon Gruden and Rich Gannon calling plays on the streets of San Francisco. Plus, Mike Vrabel revisits his "Super Bowl sacrifice," Lindsey Vonn eyes an Olympic comeback on a ruptured ACL, and we discuss the financial deficit facing Rutgers athletics.

Chris Simms on Sam Darnold sounded like his dad, Phil. Mike Vrabel was on WEEI and they asked if he would still cut off his unit to win a Super Bowl...like he said in 2019. Lindsey Vonn says she is going to compete in the Olympics even after rupturing her ACL.

Contracts Tolled: What It Means for 2026 The Detroit Lions tolled the contracts of Levi Onwuzurike and Josh Paschal after both spent the entire 2025 season on the NFI list. The practical outcome is simple. What was slated for 2025 now applies to 2026. Neither player hits free agency. Both remain Detroit Lions into the new league year. Onwuzurike's 2025 deal carries forward. Paschal moves into the final year of his rookie contract. The distinction matters inside the NFL calendar and for how the Lions plan the defensive line room into training camp. Cap Mechanics and Roster Stakes Onwuzurike has a one year, $4,000,000 deal with $3,500,000 guaranteed. The contract included a $2,000,000 signing bonus, which is typically paid at signing, so the cash outlay this year is lighter. He had a likely to be earned playing time incentive of $250,000. He did not reach it. That amount credits back to the Detroit Lions cap, a small but welcome bump. Paschal sits in the final season of his rookie deal. One key difference with the NFI list compared to IR is that teams are not obligated to pay base salaries on NFI. Beyond signing bonuses, it is unknown what either player received while sidelined. Expectations must be measured. Neither should be penciled in for significant snaps. Both must prove they can make the team. Prior second round draft status should not influence the competition. If healthy, their presence adds depth and pushes the group in camp. The medical histories frame the caution. Onwuzurike played well in 2024 before his knee gave out. He later needed knee surgery. A torn ACL was discovered after he signed, and it was not related to his longstanding back issues. He is playing after a spinal fusion surgery, which remains remarkable. Paschal had back surgery last offseason. His prior issues included melanoma that metastasized in his foot, knee problems, and a hamstring issue. He missed last season for a back problem. Availability will decide their paths. Pro Bowl Note: Goff Finds St. Brown The Pro Bowl shifted to flag football and still offered a Detroit moment. A switch of the channel landed on Jared Goff delivering a pass to Amon-Ra St. Brown. It is not tackle football. Accept that and the pace can be enjoyable. The connection was a quick reminder of timing and touch, even in an all star setting. The Detroit Lions Podcast goes live tonight at 8 PM with Chris to dig deeper into the cap ripple and the defensive line outlook. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #levionwuzurike #joshpaschal #non-footballinjurylist #contractstolled #teamcontrolinto2026 #playingtimeincentive #$2millionsigningbonus #likely-to-be-earnedincentive #rookiecontractfinalyear #tornacl Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Just Wondering with Norm Hitzges, Norm examines two modern sports realities that feel completely different — but are driven by the same idea: pushing systems beyond what they were designed to handle.Norm starts with the Dallas Cowboys' looming 2026 salary cap crisis. With the NFL cap projected to exceed $300 million, the Cowboys are already $30 million over, before accounting for key players they want to keep. Norm walks through the uncomfortable math surrounding contract restructures, deferred money, and why the Cowboys' familiar strategy of “robbing Peter to pay Paul” makes today easier — and tomorrow much harder. From Dak Prescott's ballooning cap numbers to the impossible situation surrounding defensive tackle Kenny Clark, this is a clear-eyed look at how Dallas keeps betting on the future while borrowing against it.Then the episode shifts to college football, where the definition of a “career” is quietly being rewritten. Norm breaks down the unprecedented case of Miami linebacker Mohamed Ture, who is returning for an eighth season of college football at age 25. Thanks to redshirts, injury waivers, COVID eligibility, and NIL deals, Norm explains why some players can now make more money staying in college than entering the NFL — and why this trend may only accelerate.It's a thoughtful, numbers-driven episode about consequences, incentives, and what happens when leagues solve today's problems by moving them into tomorrow.JWw-NH SL Ep 95 ⏱️ Chapters00:00 – Just wondering about another Cowboys salary cap mess01:27 – The 2026 NFL salary cap: $300M and Dallas is already over02:08 – “Robbing Peter to pay Paul” explained02:53 – Cutting players to create cap space03:38 – Why Kenny Clark's $21M cap hit can't happen04:29 – The backlash if Dallas lets Clark walk05:11 – Nine players, $259M, and nowhere to go06:01 – Why the math simply doesn't work06:40 – March 11: the real NFL deadline07:21 – How Dak Prescott's cap hit ballooned to $74M08:04 – Zach Martin, retirement, and dead money08:55 – “Busting the budget” for a Super Bowl run09:41 – Sponsor break11:39 – College football's newest oddity12:26 – Mohamed Ture returns for an eighth season13:26 – ACL injuries, NFL risk, and NIL math14:13 – Making a career out of college football14:53 – Final thoughts and sign-off Check us out: patreon.com/sunsetloungedfwInstagram: sunsetloungedfwTiktok: sunsetloungedfwX: SunsetLoungeDFWFB: Sunset Lounge DFW #JustWondering #NormHitzges #DallasCowboys#NFLSalaryCap #CowboysNation#CollegeFootball #NIL #TransferPortal#SportsPodcast #SportsEconomics Just Wondering is a long-form sports commentary podcast hosted by longtime broadcaster Norm Hitzges, offering thoughtful, numbers-driven analysis of the NFL, college sports, the NBA, and the business and culture surrounding them.

2026 will be a new era for Sun Devil quarterbacks, and all eyes will be on the position in spring and fall camps to see who will take the reins. Among the hopefuls is redshirt freshman Cam Dyer, who is the only returner in the group. His high school career saw him put up video game numbers, a four-star recruiting rating, and two Gatorade Player of the Year awards in his home state of New Mexico. He committed to ASU prior to his senior year, interestingly as a wide receiver, not a quarterback. However, a torn ACL near the end of his prep days had him begin his time in Tempe rehabbing. Making the switch back to quarterback, he put in the work, recovered, and ended the year as the Sun Devils' top backup. He'll now get a chance to make his mark on the offense this offseason. On this episode, we discuss the lessons and growth through his rehab, his football journey, the developing rapport of the quarterback room, and much more.

Oh No! Kel'el Ware, Cats, Bacon, and F1 on the horizon!

   A new video of left wing agitator Alex Pretti was released by the BBC and it shows Pretti spitting at federal agents, screaming eff you's, flipping the bird and kicking out the tail lights of their car.  Peaceful protest indeed.  Pretti, carrying a gun, was taken to the ground and according to CNN suffered a broken rib.  Amazingly, the didn't see the gun and let him go.  Agents drove away.  It's no wonder these thugs think they can get away with anything.    Bruce Springsteen has a new song for the people of Minneapolis and my inbox is filling up with listeners that are deleting him from the playlists.    Mayor Q says on radio that he was listening to our reporting about the Royals on Tuesday and I"m actually very happy for him.  If a mayor found a way to get baseball downtown without a public vote, he deserves a statue at the new park.    Vahe Gregorian of the KC Star pens a piece on why he didn't vote for Bill Belichick for the Hall of Fame, the very first person to admit it.  When you hear his reason, you will understand just how different liberals and conservatives are in the way they think.   Adam Schefter reports Gardner Minshew is 100% healthy and never did blow out his ACL.  That means something bad was going on with the Chiefs, or their doctors.    And gentlemen, we're about to share something with you that isn't available anywhere but KC.  Its a new concept called www.flexcaves.com and its a place for business, storing a car or boat or having your weekly poker game and smoking cigars in a condo-like storage unit.  They break ground this year in Martin City and Brett Johnson is here to explain why he thinks his ideas will be a huge hit.

In this episode, we unpack why “feeling good” late in ACL rehab can be one of the most misleading signals an athlete can rely on. Using the ACL-as-a-seatbelt analogy, we break down why the ligament stays quiet during controlled rehab and daily activities, why clinic exams and timelines often provide a false sense of security, and why symptoms disappearing does not equal readiness for sport. This episode reframes ACL recovery away from confidence and calendar time and toward objective evidence, chaos tolerance, and worst-case scenario preparedness, so athletes and clinicians understand what truly reduces reinjury risk.Ways we can connect:My IG: www.instagram.com/ravipatel.dptOur website: www.theaclathlete.comEmail: ravi@theaclathlete.com_________________Submit a topic or a question you'd like me to answer.Check out our website and tons of free ACL resourcesSign up for The ACL Athlete - VALUE Newsletter (an exclusive newsletter packed with value - ACL advice, go-to exercises, ACL research reviews, athlete wins, frameworks we use, mindset coaching, blog articles, podcast episodes, and pre-launch access to some exciting projects we have lined up)1-on-1 Remote ACL Coaching - A clear plan.

The Bengals are entering a pivotal period for locking up key young talent, and Chase Brown is at the top of that list. After a breakout season with over 1,300 scrimmage yards and continued production, Brown has publicly expressed his desire to stay in Cincinnati long-term while his agent and the team have been in ongoing communication about a new contract. Historically, Cincinnati has waited to extend players until they've proven themselves—and often until prices inflate, as seen with Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins—but Brown seems positioned to be part of that core moving forward. Getting a deal done now could be mutually beneficial: stability for the team and financial security for Brown before he hits unrestricted free agency. For Dax Hill, the situation is slightly different. The Bengals exercised his fifth-year option for the 2026 season, keeping him under contract through next year. That move shows organizational belief in his upside after a position switch from safety to cornerback, despite an ACL injury. Hill's extension may not come immediately this offseason—teams often wait to see a full season of production before committing significant new money—but his late-season performance in 2025 could push the Bengals toward long-term talks instead of reaching for a cornerback in the draft. DJ Turner has arguably the strongest case for an early extension among the three. After a career-best 2025 campaign highlighted by high PFF grades, pass breakups, and interceptions, Turner looks like a foundational piece of the Bengals' defense. He's expressed a clear desire to stay long term, and team insiders expect extension talks to start soon. With contracts for Brown and Turner both in play, the Bengals' front office will need to balance cap flexibility with locking down homegrown contributors in the coming months.

The 2026 NBA All-Star Game at Intuit Dome in Inglewood, CA (Feb. 15) features a new USA vs. World format, showcasing 24 top players divided into three 8-man teams (two U.S. squads, one International) in a round-robin, 12-minute game tournament. Luka Dončić and Giannis Antetokounmpo headline the World team starters, with Pistons' J.B. Bickerstaff serving as a coach. The Warriors face a severely compromised 2026 championship outlook following Jimmy Butler's season-ending ACL injury, as he was their second-leading scorer (2020 PPG) and primary defensive anchor. While they might remain in the playoff mix, their elite contender status is largely gone, forcing reliance on depth and potential roster moves to support Stephen Curry. The Dallas Mavericks' 2026 rebuild revolves around emerging cornerstone Cooper Flagg, who has shown rapid development. Following the departure of Luka Dončić, the team is pivoting toward a youth movement, aiming to develop talent like Max Christie, Ron Holland, and Dereck Lively II. As of late January 2026, Giannis Antetokounmpo remains publicly committed to the Milwaukee Bucks, stating his desire to remain with the franchise for his entire career despite intense, record-low season struggles. While not requesting a trade, mounting frustration over team performance and a below-.500 record has led to speculation about a potential future, or "divorce," according to league sourcesBusiness Inquires DaDojoProduction@gmail.com Insta https://www.instagram.com/senseink/ Pod Insta: https://www.instagram.com/dadojocast/ Sports Page @IKINDAKNOWBALL

The Dynasty Nerds crew is back with their monthly Risers and Fallers episode, and the conversation got heated. Rich Dotson, Garret Price, and Jagger May debated which players are climbing the dynasty rankings and which ones are plummeting after the AFC and NFC Championship games. Trevor Lawrence topped the risers list as the unanimous number one. With Liam Coen's offense and a loaded receiving corps, Rich declared him an elite dynasty asset at just 26 years old. Jaxson Dart landed at number two, with John Harbaugh bringing stability to the Giants and Malik Nabers returning from injury. Colston Loveland rounded out the top three, cementing himself as a top five tight end after his playoff breakout. On the falling side, CJ Stroud was the unanimous number one faller. Rich went on a legendary rant, calling him overvalued for years and predicting he could slide even further when the elite 2027 quarterback class arrives. JJ McCarthy and Zach Charbonnet also took hits, with McCarthy facing competition rumors and Charbonnet dealing with a devastating ACL injury.

This week on Second Act Stories, we're featuring a series called "Rewriting the Playbook." This group of episodes features guests whose journeys share a common connection to sports, sometimes front and center, sometimes quietly shaping the path forward. In these conversations, the influence of competition, teamwork, and discipline shows up in different ways, informing career pivots and personal reinvention. Together, these stories explore how the lessons learned on the field can echo long after the final whistle, guiding second acts that are anything but predictable. Arrelious Benn was a star football player at Dunbar Senior High School (Washington, DC) and the University of Illinois. He entered the NFL draft after his junior year in college and was selected by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. His NFL career with Tampa Bay, the Philadelphia Eagles and the Jacksonville Jaguars spanned seven years, twice the league average. But it is also included two ACL tears, a fractured lumbar and a shattered collarbone. After his final season with the Jaguars, he and his family put down roots and decided to open Social House Coffee in the Avondale section of Jacksonville. Replacing a former gun store, his neighborhood shop is all about great coffee and building community. As Benn shares in the podcast, "Football consumed my life for so many years. But I know I only have one body. And I want to see my kids grow up and there are other things I want to do. It's a breath of fresh air to do something new and be creative." Benn is now working in what he calls "my first real job." He spends his days taking customers' orders, serving coffee/pastries and managing a staff of six. And he couldn't be happier. ******* If you enjoy Second Act Stories, please leave us a review here. We may read your review on a future episode! Subscribe to the Second Act stories Substack.

This week on Around the ACL, Meesh, Trey, and Anthony get you fully set for Signature #2 in Memphis, but first, a special moment to start the show. Commissioner Stacey Moore joins us to send Trey off and make an exciting announcement that sets the tone for what's ahead in the 2026 season.   From there, we break down everything you need to know about the Memphis schedule, including when Pro Doubles, Pro Singles, and Championship matches hit the boards and how to watch all weekend long.   We dive deep into the Singles brackets, walking through Brackets A–D and discussing the paths, pressure points, and matchups that could shape the tournament. Who's got the toughest road? Where could chaos break out? And which players are positioned to make a serious run?   Then we shift to Pro Doubles, breaking down all four brackets and talking chemistry, momentum, and which teams look dangerous heading into one of the biggest weekends of the season.   We close it out the only way we know how, with fast, bold, and sometimes unhinged predictions in Hole-y Hot Take as Signature #2 gets ready to light up Memphis.

All-Star starters are announced, the new international team format is coming, half the league is injured, and the trade deadline is now days away.On this episode of the Hoop Genius Podcast, Mo and Coach Brendan Suhr break down everything shaping the league right now. They react to the All-Star starters in the East and West, debate whether Anthony Edwards was snubbed, and explain why Steph Curry, Wembanyama, and the international stars changed the entire structure of this year's game. They also dig into why winning should matter more in All-Star voting, why Embiid doesn't deserve to make it, and which players actually belong on the new international roster.The conversation shifts to the teams no one can figure out. The Timberwolves' inconsistency, Ant's on-off nights, and why Denver keeps winning even without Jokic. Peyton Watson's breakout, role players stepping up, and what that says about real internal development versus empty stats.Then it turns dark for Golden State. Jimmy Butler's non-contact ACL injury, Steph Curry still playing at an All-Star level at 37, and why the Warriors are now stuck in no-man's land. They explain why a Steph trade will never happen, why Kuminga's timing couldn't be worse, and why this roster has quietly hit a dead end.With the trade deadline looming, Mo and Coach explain why injured stars almost never get traded, what it would actually take to move a Giannis, AD, or Ja Morant, and why front offices won't gamble on damaged assets. They also break down two-way contracts, roster math, and why teams like Dallas are being forced into trades just to keep young players.They close with Rising Stars, Cooper Flagg, the new wave of international talent, Derrick Rose's jersey retirement, and what real legacy actually looks like.No filler. No narratives. Just what's actually happening in the NBA right now.
