On this episode of The Sporting Tribune Today, host Grant Mona covers two major storylines: the Los Angeles Lakers' latest gritty win and the Los Angeles Rams' media buildup ahead of their big divisional clash. Segment 1 – Lakers vs. Spurs:The Lakers edged the San Antonio Spurs 118-116 thanks to a comeback and late execution. Coach JJ Redick and players such as Rui Hachimura (who hit a late three and drew a crucial charge) discussed what it took to grind out the win. We'll delve into: What the win says about the Lakers' character and emerging culture. Takeaways from the close finish — what they did right and what still needs work. How this moment fits into their broader season trajectory. Segment 2 – Rams' Press Conference & Matchup Preview:Meanwhile, the Rams are gearing up for a showdown with the San Francisco 49ers. Coach Sean McVay, quarterback Matthew Stafford and receiver Davante Adams all spoke to media about their preparation and the challenge ahead: How Stafford and Adams are syncing up and why that matters. McVay's emphasis on special teams and detailed prep for this divisional game. What the Rams must do to take control of the matchup, and how this game impacts their season.

On today's episode of The Sporting Tribune Today, host Arash Markazi brings you two major NFL storylines head-on. Segment 1: Los Angeles Rams vs San Francisco 49ers The Rams head into a nail-biter Week 10 matchup on the road against the 49ers, fresh off a dominant 34-10 win over the New Orleans Saints. In his media session, head coach Sean McVay discussed the Rams' momentum, the looming NFC West battle, and gave updates on key injuries — including star WR Puka Nacua. McVay said he's “optimistic” about Nacua returning despite his rib injury. We'll break down: What McVay sees as the difference between winning a big divisional road game and simply getting by. How the Rams plan to exploit 49ers weaknesses — especially their depleted pass-rush and injury impacts. The internal accountability McVay emphasized: even after a blowout win, he flagged special teams issues and said the “granular elements” remain non-negotiable. Segment 2: Los Angeles Chargers' Next-Step Focus Switching gears, we hear from head coach Jim Harbaugh as he addresses the team's upcoming stretch and key areas of improvement. Harbaugh made it clear the Chargers “need to be better” on special teams and said the team will be explicitly targeting that phase this week. We'll examine: How Harbaugh views the offensive line as the “tip of the spear” in building his roster and its current status. Which injury updates and roster windows (e.g., return of key contributors) are shaping the Chargers' immediate outlook. What needs to happen for the Chargers to elevate from contenders to consistent winners in Harbaugh's system. Produced by: Grant Mona Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

A few final thoughts on the Summer of Trinity.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manhattan_Project   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Iwo_Jima  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Okinawa   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_B._McVay_III Walter Griffith, the commander of USS Bullhead, who had departed the ship just before its final voyage that summer, also committed suicide, two years before McVay - and with more definite connection to the loss of his men.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_T._Griffith https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Downfall - the plan to invade Japan in November 1945. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1945_World_Series https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_World_Series   As recorded, my reason for why Little Boy and Fat Man were dropped sounds like I agree with that - at least, it sounds like that more than I intended. Really, though, my view is more of an acknowledgement of the inevitability of the war machine which built those weapons. The decision to use them, in my view,  was less about particular reasons and more about why they were made: To win the war. Whether they were needed to win the war was irrelevant by the end, and trying to assess the "need" to drop them is missing that important point.

The San Francisco 49ers outlasted the Los Angeles Rams 26-23 in an overtime Thursday Night Football thriller in Week 5! Backup QB Mac Jones silenced doubters with 342 yards and 2 TDs, while Kendrick Bourne torched the Rams for a career-high 142 yards. Christian McCaffrey piled up 139 total yards and a touchdown, and rookie DT Alfred Collins made a game-changing play in the trenches.The Rams weren't quiet — Matthew Stafford threw for 389 yards and 3 TDs, Kyren Williams racked up explosive gains but suffered a brutal goal-line fumble, and Puka Nacua delivered clutch catches to keep L.A. alive. Still, the game flipped in overtime: a 4th-and-1 stop by San Francisco's defense set up Eddy Piñeiro's walk-off field goal from 41 yards out.

The San Francisco 49ers (3-1) head to Los Angeles for a huge Week 5 Thursday Night Football matchup against the Rams (3-1) in primetime. Coming off an ugly loss to Jacksonville that featured four turnovers, no sacks without Nick Bosa, and another special teams blunder, Kyle Shanahan's team is desperate to bounce back.But with Brock Purdy, Jauan Jennings, and Ricky Pearsall all questionable on a short week — and no rushing touchdowns this season — can the 49ers offense find a way to move the ball against a surging Rams defense led by Jared Verse and Aaron Donald?Meanwhile, Matthew Stafford and Puka Nacua have been lighting up secondaries, and Kyren Williams keeps the Rams' ground game rolling. Sean McVay's offense is efficient, Stafford is thriving under pressure, and Los Angeles nearly entered Week 5 undefeated.In this episode, we dive deep into:Purdy's injury status and the 49ers' WR depth without Jennings & PearsallWhy San Francisco's pass rush must step up without Nick BosaHow Shanahan matches up against McVay in another chapter of their rivalryPuka Nacua vs. the 49ers' secondary — is this a mismatch?Special teams woes and red zone execution on both sidesFinal predictions: can the 49ers steal a primetime win on the road?It's 49ers vs Rams on Thursday Night Football — and we've got your full game preview, storylines, and keys to victory right here.Don't forget to LIKE

The Rams are poised to handle business on Thursday night, and Vegas agrees as they're 6.5pt favorites over their archrival division opponents at home. Regardless of who's hurt and who isn't, McVay vs. Shanahan is always a great match-up. The 49ers will find ways to stay in this game, but their lack of healthy skill players and difference makers on both sides of the ball make this an incredibly tall task for them. We're fully confident that the Rams can continue to ride the momentum and take care of the 3-1 49ers in SoFi Stadium. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Week 3 of the Philadelphia Eagles 2025-2026 season is now in the books as they beat the Los Angeles Rams by a score of 33-26 down at The Linc in Philly. They are now 3-0 on the season and right at the top of the NFC East division. This was one heck of a game with an amazing ending as Jordan Davis not only blocked a field goal, but returned it for a touchdown for the inevitable win!This game also should be dubbed as a tale of two halves. The Eagles offense only generated 33 yards of offense in the first half, yet ended the game with 288 total yards. The passing game finally started manifesting itself in the second half with Jalen Hurts doing a great job of making plays when it counted, but the pass game was quiet in the first two quarters. And somehow the rushing attack just didn't work in this game as Saquon Barkley ended the day with 2.6 yards per rush. However, the Eagles offense is now 8/8 in the red zone on the season - the best in the NFL.It was a bend but don't break defense this week. While they gave up some big plays through the air to Puka Nacua and Davonte Adams had some nice plays, but it wasn't enough to win this game.As always, we gave our top themes, thoughts and opinions from the game on offense, defense, and special teams, plus we graded each unit to close out the show.SUBSCRIBE on YouTube: youtube.com/@thephiladelphiasportstableHead over to our website for all of our podcasts and more: philadelphiasportstable.comFollow us on BlueSky:Jeff: @jeffwarren.bsky.socialErik: @brickpollitt.bsky.socialFollow us on Threads:Jeff: @mrjeffwarrenErik: @slen1023The Show: @philadelphiasportstableFollow us on Twitter/X:Jeff: @Jeffrey_WarrenErik: @BrickPollittThe Show: @PhiladelphiaPSTFollow us on Instagram:Jeff: @mrjeffwarrenErik: @slen1023The Show: @philadelphiasportstable.Follow Jeff on TikTok: @mrjeffwarrenFollow us on Facebook: facebook.com/PhiladelphiaSportsTable

The very latest on Rams QB Matthew Stafford and why he sat out of an expected practice following his "great" preseason workout on Saturday. Just 27 days before the season opener in Houston - we have the latest on Coach Sean McVay's timeline for Stafford's return. I was at the Rams facility in Woodland Hills as McVay revealed why Stafford's back didn't respond after a strong 60-throw workout, sending him instead to treatment in a high-tech Ammortal chamber. We're breaking down what this means for Week 1 against the Texans and the team's preparation ahead of joint practice with the Saints.

Rams President & COO Kevin Demoff sits down with us for an exclusive look inside the Los Angeles Rams' 2025-2026 season. From signing stars like Davante Adams and Poona Ford, to the bold decision to hire Sean McVay and his lasting impact, to Matthew Stafford's health and the search for the next franchise QB, we cover it all. Demoff also opens up about Rams uniforms and designs that never made it to the field, how the team is building its brand in the competitive LA sports market, strategies to strengthen the home-field advantage at SoFi, and what he would do differently after 16 years leading the Rams.

Brandon Stickney remembers booze being everywhere growing up in Lockport, New York and he definitely remembers getting a taste for it growing up. Over time, he developed bipolar disorder and his substance use disorder added cocaine and opioids as favorite drugs. Brandon's love of getting high would cost him his marriage, his successful career as a journalist and author, and his freedom, after getting busted selling drugs and being sentenced to two years in prison. He tells us about what it's like to live with mental health issues behind bars, how both prescription drugs and illicit narcotics work there, and he tells the stories of people who helped him get through. Brandon's memoir of the experience is The Five People You Meet In Prison. Brandon lives in Florida now with his father and is working hard on his sobriety.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.
