Podcasts about Tecmo Bowl

RUNDOWN   Episode 336 opens with Mitch and Hotshot back in full form, celebrating the triumphant return of the area code gimmick — this time, 336, home to Greensboro, North Carolina. Mitch dives into the city's hidden gems and famous natives, from Counting Crows bassist Millard Powers to NBA legend Bob McAdoo and Tecmo-Bowl hero Haywood Jeffires. Along the way, we get Billy Crash Craddock trivia, a “plug it in” moment, and a savage grocery store showdown involving a rogue bagger and a flustered Mitch. Emmy-winning filmmaker Rebecca Gitlitz joins the show to discuss her explosive new Netflix documentary, Untold: The Fall of Favre. The interview explores why Jen Sterger's story is only now being fully heard, the disturbing details of Favre's alleged role in the Mississippi welfare scandal, and how Gitlitz navigated fairness, fact-checking, and silence from Favre's camp. In sports, the guys unpack the Mariners' frustrating four-game set in Houston. Despite momentum going in, Seattle drops three of four, and Mitch explores why left-handed pitching continues to be their kryptonite. That sets the table for this week's Mariners No-Table with Joe Doyle and Brady Farkas, where they break down the Astros series, analyze lineup matchups, bullpen handling, and offer a blunt assessment: the M's need a right-handed bat — badly. Finally, prospect guru Jason Churchill returns to profile the Mariners' red-hot farm system. Churchill explains why he wouldn't trade Seattle's top 8 prospects for any other organization in baseball. The two dig into Cole Young's AAA breakout, Juan Soto's switch-pitching uniqueness, and how Colt Emerson and Harry Ford could fit into Seattle's long-term plans.   GUESTS   Rebecca Gitlitz | Director, Untold: The Fall of Favre (Netflix) Joe Doyle | MLB Draft/Prospect Analyst, OverSlot Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose Podcast Jason Churchill | Founder, Prospect Insider   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Mitch revives the area code tradition with a Greensboro deep dive, featuring Counting Crows, Chris Daughtry, and a grocery store diss worthy of a flagrant foul. 21:30 | Mariners lose 3 of 4 in Houston — Mitch highlights the ongoing struggle against left-handed pitching and the lineup shake-ups it forces. 38:52 | Guest: Rebecca Gitlitz – Gitlitz breaks down the Brett Favre doc, Jen Sterger's unheard truth, the Mississippi welfare scandal, and why no one is a one-dimensional villain. 54:14 | Guest: Mariners' No-Table, Brady Farkas & Joe Doyle – dig into the Astros series fallout, bullpen management, right-handed bat urgency, and potential trade targets.

Chris Egan, KING 5 TV, joins Jason “Puck” Puckett for his weekly visit.  You never know where the conversation goes and since Puck celebrated his 49th birthday on Thursday, Puck and Egan want to bring back 1980's birthday parties for adults.  Tecmo Bowl. Shakey's Pizza. Baskin-Robbins ice cream birthday cake.  Jolt cola. VHS tapes and Nerf hoops! They wonder how much money adults would pay to have an '80's themed party?  It would include a sleepover and sneaking out to meet up with girls, or wives for that matter! The high school football season wraps up this weekend and they discuss and preview the championship games.  

On Friday's Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by Jim Moore, the Go-2-Guy, who pops on every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.  Former Seahawks linebacker Lofa Tatupu, our football handicapper TroyWins.comand Puck wraps up every Friday show with Chris Egan from KING 5 TV. Puck and Jim open up the show talking about the Seahawks, why don't they talk more about the Kraken, Stephen A. Smith making big dollars and celebrating Puck's 49th birthday and looking ahead to 50! Lofa Tatupu joined Puck and Jim to chat about the Seahawks and the defensive turnaround since Ernest Jones joined the team.

The evolution of college football video games has been a dynamic journey, transitioning from the classic NCAA football series to the Madden franchise, and now witnessing a resurgence with the release of a new college football game that has rekindled enthusiasm among fans. Jr Sparrow, reflecting on this evolution, appreciates the nostalgic thrill and enjoyment these games offer, particularly through features like dynasty modes that allow players to build and develop teams over seasons. His perspective is shaped by memories of earlier games like Tecmo Bowl and Bill Walsh College Football, as well as an understanding of the legal battles and exclusivity deals that shifted the gaming landscape. Ultimately, Jr Sparrow is relieved and excited about the new game's arrival, as it allows him to vicariously pursue his college football dreams and enjoy the enhanced experience of online play with a vibrant gaming community.

One of the few drawbacks of winning the Super Bowl is that you get the worst draft position - a tradeoff every team would make any day. But in the 2018 draft, the “Philly Special” Eagles had the opportunity to select Lamar Jackson at No. 32, but chose to trade the pick to the Baltimore Ravens for a package of lower picks. Since then, the Ravens have been elite, Jackson has won two MVPs, while the Eagles bottomed out in 2020, changed coaching staffs and underwent a major roster overhaul before bouncing back the past two seasons. But what would've happened if that trade never happened and the Eagles used their pick on Lamar? Could Jackson have ever beaten out Carson Wentz in Philly? What former Eagles great would he forever be compared to? Who would the Ravens find as a replacement for Joe Flacco? And what does this all have to do with Tecmo Bowl?

“I hate the Kansas City Chiefs with a passion reserved only for things that I love.” —Tod Goldberg In this episode of Deviate, Rolf shares his 2002 NPR “Savvy Traveler” dispatch about trying to watch the Super Bowl in Thailand (3:00); then he and Tod Goldberg discuss how they became NFL football fans as kids in the 1970s, and how this affected their fandom later in life (8:00); how it could be difficult in the days before the Internet for kids to find information about NFL teams and players, and which books they read about the early days of pro football (23:00); the origins of the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs in upstart pro leagues, their more recent fortunes in the NFL, and how the last Chiefs Super Bowl appearance was nine months before Rolf was born (38:30); on watching Super Bowls from overseas and following the Chiefs (or 49ers) as adults, the strengths of the 2020 Chiefs and 49ers teams, and the emotional stakes of Super Bowl LIV (49:00); how the Chiefs have dominated the AFC in the four years since 2020, how this success has affected people's perception of them, and how the Chiefs' Midwesternness makes them different from other NFL dynasties (1:05:30); the role superstition plays in sports fandom, how some team fandom comes out of love for individual players, how fandom creates a leveling of social classes, and the merits of "fair weather" fandom (1:10:30).
