From medical evaluations and team interviews to rising buzz around top defensive prospects, the NFL Combine continues to shape how teams approach this year's draft. With quarterbacks beyond the top tier still developing and players like David Bailey, Lee Hunter and Caleb Downs gaining momentum, front offices are gathering the information that could define their first round strategy. Rick Serritella, Founder of All Access Football and NFL Draft Analyst, joins 365 Sports to break down what truly matters most during combine week, which Texas Tech prospects are turning heads in Indianapolis, and why this year's class at so called devalued positions could still dominate draft night. #nfldraft #nflcombine #nfl Learn more about your ad choices.

Granville Supreme Court case established that fit parents have a fundamental 14th Amendment right to make decisions regarding the care and custody of their children. The ruling struck down an overly broad Washington state law that allowed any person to sue for visitation, asserting that the government cannot override a fit parent's choices just because a judge believes a different arrangement would be "better". While frequently cited by parental rights advocates to support autonomy and equal time, the case specifically addressed disputes between parents and third parties, such as grandparents, rather than conflicts between two fit parents.

This week, we sit down with Bishop Snow an emerging hip hop artist whose story moves from police documentation to performance stages.Raised between Oceanside and Long Beach, Bishop grew up surrounded by instability, gang culture, and early exposure to drugs. By 16, he was already documented by the gang suppression unit, immersed in a lifestyle that felt inevitable in his neighborhood. The streets were loud. The future felt small.But somewhere between the chaos and the consequences, Bishop found a different outlet: music. Writing became his therapy. Recording became his refuge. Even as addiction tightened its grip and his focus on music faded, the spark never fully went out.In 2019, Bishop made the decision to walk away from meth. Recovery didn't just clear his mind, it reignited his discipline. With clarity came consistency. With consistency came growth. His health improved. His writing sharpened. His sound evolved.Then fatherhood shifted everything. Becoming a dad at 21 forced Bishop to zoom out and get serious about his craft. What started as personal expression turned into professional pursuit, leading to viral moments, studio production, and now a tour kicking off next week.This episode is about transformation in real time. It's about trading gang files for tour dates, addiction for ambition, and survival for legacy. Bishop Snow's story is proof that recovery doesn't just restore what was lost. Sometimes it amplifies what was always there.

Send a textAfter the recent opening of Man and Boy in the Dorfman Theatre, National Theatre, Laurie Kynaston sat down with us to talk about this rare revival, working with director Anthony Lau on this new production and sharing the stage with acting legends Ben Daniels and Malcolm Sinclair. Our discussion delves into the contemporary revival of Terence Rattigan's plays and the reasons his character-driven stories remain relevant to modern audiences. Laurie himself made his debut in another Rattigan play: The Winslow Boy and tells us about the full-circle elements of his turn in this latest project. details the history of Man and Boy, noting its initial lack of success , and describes his first impressions of the script and the character of Basil Anthony. The conversation also addresses the technical challenges of performing in the round and the spatial awareness required to remain visible to a surrounding audience. Additionally, the interview examines Kynaston's history of portraying strained father-son dynamics , covering the emotional weight of The Son and the logistical process of joining the cast of Long Day's Journey Into Night on short notice.In our new interview with Laurie Kynaston, he shares his personal outlook on the industry and reflections on his career progression. He addresses the socio-economic barriers currently facing the theatre, specifically the issues of rising ticket prices and classism. We hear him reflect on his own beginnings at Theatr Clwyd in North Wales, while expressing concern that potential audiences are being priced out of the arts. As he transitions into more prominent leading roles, he shares his optimism about the future as well as his gratitude to being welcomed in certain circles in the theatre world. It's a truly endearing conversation and as Laurie continues through his 30s, we look forward to seeing his shift from younger male parts to mature roles that reflect his already wise worldview.Man and Boy runs at Dorfman Theatre, National Theatre until 14 March.

We are BACK after a quick break (sure, let's say it's Olympic related, why not), and we once again delve into all things Philadelphia Sports. Whether the public demands it or not!First - we almost live looked in at the Sixers v the Hawks after the All Star Break. And things are...not yet up to game speed for the Sixers. Maxey is starting to plateau out, PG is still suspended, Embiid has a thing with a body part...but VJ wins MVP of the Rising Stars game! That last part is really the only good news. Maybe we shoulda kept Jared McCain. I refuse to look up his solid stats and minutes played on his new team lol.NEXT - we compare the seemingly similar strife striking squads situation in South Philly. The Phils have a Dombrowski / Harper problem, and the Eagles kinda have an overall AJ Brown problem. We discuss the similarities between to the two - is it really about questionable leadership on the coaching / GM side? Or is it just entitled diva season from the players end of things? Man, I just hope we hang on to these two anchor players, because we need em if we are gonna continue our winning ways.We promise to be more upbeat next week - if the NEWS ALLOWS IT TO BE.Email: hoagiemouthpod@gmail.comIG: @hoagiemouthpod

Send a textSpilled beer on the soundboard, a busted molding kit story we probably shouldn't admit, and the most heartfelt sports gift a kid could get—this one swings from laugh-out-loud to gut-level real. We start with tech chaos and college flashbacks, then drop into a group sex-store run that turns into a meditation on curiosity, embarrassment, and growing up. From there, a mother's handwritten letter gifting tickets to Michael Jordan's final All-Star Game reframes what All-Star Weekend used to mean and what it's missing now.We go deep on the NBA's midseason showcase: why Rising Stars feels forgettable, how the three-point contest still slaps, and why the dunk contest keeps chasing juice it can't bottle. Our take isn't “get the stars” so much as “set the stage”—clear judging, smarter formats, and real officiating so players don't weigh injury risk over effort. And we make the case for Anthony Edwards as the league's most compelling American face: funny, authentic, fierce on both ends, and unafraid of the mic. Along the way, we nerd out on dunk mechanics, vertical, and why alley-oops can be deceptively easy when your timing is right.Then the NFL receipts come out. We own our misses and call what mattered: the Falcons' coaching and QB gaps, the Patriots' surprise path through the AFC East, the Texans' growth and Jaguars' steadiness, the Bears' surge, the Packers' near-miss, and the thin line between KC's aura and actual regression. It's not just who's good; it's who stays good when chaos hits. Finally, we pivot to culture: Cardi B's algorithm-proof magnetism, and a clear-eyed critique of Stephen A. Smith's presidential flirtation. We unpack what “defund the police” actually means—reallocating duties and resources—and why better messaging matters as much as better policy.You'll laugh, you'll argue with us in your head, and you'll leave with takes you can defend. If you're into smart sports talk with real life baked in, hit play, share with a friend, and tell us: who's the real face of the NBA right now? And which NFL prediction did we botch the worst?

Following a CPS investigation initiated by a mandatory school reporter and a previous restraining order involving Jim's current wife, Courtney, a December 2025 settlement resulted in the children moving to Tennessee to live with Jim full-time. This case mirrors California legal procedures, where the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) investigates similar reports via a Section 3027 report to determine if allegations are founded, which can lead to emergency custody shifts and restricted visitation.

Did Wemby Save the All-Star Game? + Austin Spurs Week, Buyout Targets & 2-0 PredictionsAaron Blackerby hosts the Silver and Black Coffee Hour with Zach Montana and Tom Petrini, recapping Tom's first NBA All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles and Zach's birthday trip to San Diego. They discuss the Spurs entering the break on a six-game win streak, including a 40-point performance vs. the Lakers and a comeback win vs. the Warriors. From All-Star Weekend, Tom details empty attendance at events, odd scheduling/tape delay, and quirks of the Intuit Dome (including plentiful bathrooms, confusing media areas, and t-shirt cannons in the media section). They break down Rising Stars moments involving Dylan Harper and the Harper family, the dunk contest run by Spurs representative Carter Bryant (including his lone 50 and near-tears after missing his final attempt), and debate whether Wembanyama could do the three-point contest in coming years. The group focuses on Sunday's All-Star Game competitiveness, crediting Victor Wembanyama for setting the tone, noting Anthony Edwards repeatedly praising him, and discussing the broader ‘face of the league' conversation—highlighting Wembanyama's ‘supply and demand' quote. The episode transitions to Austin Spurs Week with Casa de Spurs activations (including free coffee), No Dunks recording in town, and excitement for two Austin ‘home' games. They also cover Jeremy Sochan being waived and signing with the Knicks, his announcement that he's becoming a dad, and the Spurs' open roster spot for a buyout candidate, mentioning possible fits like Yusef Nurkic (if available), Georges Niang, and Chris Boucher.

Hello music lovers, and welcome to another edition of Why Music Matters. I'm your host, music journalist and musician Jeff Miers. Today, my guests represent a cross-generational journey through the ever-evolving world of jazz.  Alex McArthur is a singer and storyteller whose resume reads like that of a musician three times her age. A winner of multiple JazzBuffalo Vocalist of the Year awards, Alex brings a distinct soulfulness to any music she lends her voice to, whether she's singing something she wrote herself, or flexing her interpretive muscles on the works of legends like Ella Fitzgerald, Stevie Wonder, and Mavis Staples.  Alex is joined today by a man who has acted as a significant mentor in her musical journey.  Pianist George Caldwell is credited by Alex as, quote, “the first person I ever attempted to sing jazz in front of, and the person who encouraged me to explore vocal jazz and improvisation in the first place.”  In his role as Director of the Student Jazz Ensembles and Music Piano Performance Instructor at the University at Buffalo, George has employed his decades of experience as a Grammy-winning professional musician to help mold the musical imaginations of countless young artists-in-the-making.  Those decades of experience include tenures with the Count Basie Orchestra, the Duke Ellington Orchestra, tap dancer and choreographer Saivon Glover, R&B legend Ruth Brown, and right here in Buffalo, the awe-inspiring Star People, a Miles Davis Repertory Ensemble.  Currently, Alex and George are in the midst of performing Lady Day at Emerson's Bar & Grill, a recreation of Billie Holiday's final performance, with Alex inhabiting the role of Lady Day, and George acting as Musical Director.  The show, a MusicalFare production, is running at Shea's Smith Theatre in Buffalo's Theatre and Entertainment District, through February 15. (You can learn more about the production and purchase tickets through musicalfare.com.)  Welcome to Why Music Matters, Alex McArthur and George Caldwell!

He notes that while court orders often specify how tax credits should be divided between parents, the IRS primarily determines eligibility based on the number of overnights each parent spends with the children. Real emphasizes that following the court order is crucial to avoid sanctions, especially since electronic filing conflicts—where one parent files first—can trigger reviews that delay both parents' tax returns.
