On today’s show, we’re ready to go, with 4 weeks of NFL action to confirm or contradict what we thought we knew coming into the season. Fortuitous we did so, cuz otherwise we likely would have had some chicken-little takes on the Lions, but instead, we have a nice sample size to work with as we observe and evaluate everything we see on Sundays…and Mondays, and Thursdays, and sometimes Fridays or Saturdays, and soon to be Wednesdays. And we’ll get to that, but first…

- MLB Playoffs started yesterday with 4 games and a must watch starting pitcher on the mound in Tarik Skubel pitching an absolute gem to open it all up in the early game, and from there, it’s been baseball all day.

- Then, some NBA news, and more importantly, Warrior news, trickling in as the season approaches and just 3 weeks away, That said, we’re saving our NBA Previews for a few more weeks.
