Podcast-The New NFL

by

The NFL is coming back, but it certainly isn’t going to look like it did in the past.
Players getting temperature checks between plays, cardboard cutouts of fans with EA Sports fan noise pumped into an empty stadium.
Buffalo will fare even worse, as no fans will be thrown through tailgate tables, and a dildo-less field for Patriots games. Zero dildos.
Are you happy Covid-19?

In this safe distanced podcast, Wade and Ryan look at some of the top NFL news in this sports bereft landscape.
If tumble weeds were to somehow start rolling across our plains, these guys would bet on them

Among some of the other NFL news to discuss:

NFL Preseason

We all know how much we love preseason games! Players you have never heard of trying to make that crack at the final roster, while named players try to get their shit together after a fat summer.
The league has reduced the preseason to 2 weeks, but that could be zero weeks if the NFLPA has anything to say about it.

Johnny Manziel

Johnny Manziel has finally left the field. JM has publicly posted what all of us have known for years, Johnny Football is no more. Don’t shed a tear for him yet, he still has big plans.
Let’s not forget that he was BANNED from the CFL. How much of a douche can you be if even Canadian football has to ban you. We still don’t know what it was for exactly, but it has to be nasty.

Ocho is a Nice Guy

He’s got a big mouth, and even bigger heart. Chad Ocho Johnson has been giving away his own cash to people in need. He’s promised to give $245k away, and has so far delivered over $150k to fans across the states. While he may never play in the NFL again, this guy needs to be rewarded someone how being an awesome human. Give him a chance at game pundit.

Redskins

It’s that time again. What are we going to do about Washington? Loads of sponsors & investors have had enough of a BLM movement that has seen them seemingly ignore the plights of protestors.
Will Snyder and co. finally give in to the public and change their Skin? If there was any time to do it, now might be a good one.

Cam Newton

The old man has a job, which is something you wouldn’t think to hear in this climate.
Cam is with the Patriots and everyone seems to have lost their rag. He hasn’t played in a while and was plagued by injuries and weekly beatings by opposing defences, so it will be intriguing to see what he can bring to the table. A title seems too lofty.

Enjoy the podcast. Have a listen and a laugh, and reach out for anything.

Stay safe.

Stronger Together

by

The world is hurting right now, and everyone is struggling to find the right words. Sometimes, it’s better just to say nothing & listen. As two white boys from rural Canada, that’s exactly what we’re going to do.
Wade & Ryan focus on the NFL this podcast, all the news and fun stuff.

Loads to cover in this episode, despite there seeming like nothing is happening in this offseason. Some of they things the guys touch on in this episode include:

NFL 2020 Season

What’s going to happen this season with Corona & the NFL? Who knows? Following the NBA, NASCAR & the forever fighting MLB, there are some key things to look at in the ways sports will be played this season. Games will initially be played with no fans, but that looks like it will change as it progresses. The NFL will never be the same again however.

Dak & Cam

Two big QBs with big questions over their future in 2020. Dak’s contract is playing out like a Mexican novella in what is truth or drama, and this virus has changed the way future contracts will be negotiated. Dak will be a Cowboy, it just depends on for how much and how long.
Cam is an interesting treat. He is still young enough & talented enough to ball in the league, but he might have to take a backup role to be able to see this season through.

New Rules

Auto replays on all scoring plays are one of the big new ones. This will help erase and secure some of the garbage and glory plays that were mislabelled in previous years.
There are also new rules regarding popping a defenceless player, so that guys don’t get their bell rung on non plays.
Game clock rules have also been introduced after Belichick took advantage of dead ball rules to sustain the play clock for more yards. Classic Bill!

XFL is Dead

by

Ding Dong the McMahon dream is dead.
Corona has claimed another sports victim, and this time it was the XFL.

The XFL was thought to be a much bigger and improved version of the AAF and was actually starting to see some uptick in viewership and fanbase, but like any sport in this new world, the weight was too much.

There was quite a bit of pomp and ceremony as the league was announced, and the TV rating rivalled that of NBA games. Like any sport in the first year, you are defined by how the season is reflected upon, and this was just a brutal end to a ceremonial start.

Much like Vince McMahon himself, the game was loud, brash, and admired by middle class America.
With shots of fans using beer luges with their cups, or the viscera trash-talking on the field, and scantily clad cheerleaders drew fans in after an exciting NFL season.

As corona spread across the USA, it was too risky to keep showing the games, and eventually chapter 11 caught up with the the league. It is dead, done and dusted.
Not even The Undertaker is willing to be associated with it now.

Vince and his family were able to convince Florida legislators that the WWE was an ‘essential service’, you wonder if her tried that with Trump as well.

Farewell XFL, we barely knew you.

Locked down & stir crazy? Looking for some good NFL banter? Then you came to the right place, as Wade & Ryan safe distance this housebound podcast.
What’s going on in the league? Will the London games happen? What will I do without football?
All these & more in this fun episode.

It’s a whole different world out there folks, so stay apart & stay safe. If you’re a Dolphins fan, pretend it’s a home game.

Wade & Ryan look at some of the big news in the NFL, and break down a few different topics, including:

London NFL Games

It doesn’t seem likely that these will go on given the current climate. Even if the season is shortened to 14 games, it is unlikely the NFLPA will want to bolt overseas. US games might be safe distanced, or played in different scenarios as well.

Kraft Dinner

Robert Kraft went to China, but not for the reasons you think. He sent the Patriots plane to pick up masks for Boston. What a guy! The masks will be carried by 200 nail salon workers.

Saints

Sean Payton is free and clear and talking nonsense. Holding your power meeting in a brewery? Brees will retire this year? Huh? You still got the fever son.

NFL Trades

Some big QBs on the market here, with Dalton, Winston, Carr & Newton all free game. Where do they end up to start this bizarre year? So many possibilities, so many options.

Subscribe, listen, share & feel free to get in touch. It’s tough out there.

NFL Corona

by

There’s nothing funny about this Corona virus…unless you are really looking for some laughs…and we are.

Corona and the Lockdown is no joke though, so listen to the authorities, stay inside & think of others!

Luckily ‘The Draw Play’ has come up with all of the NFL logos reimagined if they were under Corona lockdown. Anything about sports…humour and the NFL, we’re in.
Have a look, a laugh, and stay safe!
