Sean and Joey love sports, but they realize there are a lot of dumb elements within our favorite games. And each week, they'll break down one of those dumb things in this tidy, bite-sized podcast. Drop by to hear Sean lament over the stupidity of a certain aspect in sports—basketball, football, baseball, hockey, golf, tennis, volleyball, lacrosse—nothing is off-limits. If there's something dumb to talk about, you better believe we'll hit it. We're also covering some pointless tweets, overused sports cliches, and general news that...well, doesn't need to be news. And we love to hear from you! Give Sean or Joey (or both) a shout with your favorite dumb things.

Basketball discourse is so weird. There are constant player comparisons, far too many discussions around legacy, and absurd lists that make no sense. It often turns into lazy discussion that makes fo…
Reggie Bush won the Heisman Trophy in 2005, but then it was taken away in 2010 because of some minor infractions, especially considering the NIL deals out there today. Well, it took 14 years, but Bus…
