7 days ago
7 days ago
It’s been 11 years since Rory McIlroy won a major. He’s choked away many opportunities but Nathaniel had never bet on him before, until this past week. Nathaniel placed his dinner bet on Rory to the shock of everyone and lo and behold it finally happened. Turns out, Rory has Nathaniel to thank as his good luck charm and Carter has to take an earful from Nathaniel after all the chirping following his 36% performance in the NCAA basketball bracket. We also talk NBA playoffs and make our predictions even though we sound like a bunch of homers. Thanks so much for listening and be sure to subscribe and review!

Friday Apr 11, 2025
Friday Apr 11, 2025
This week we sit down to talk about the NCAA men’s basketball tournament and specifically discuss the massive choke job by both Duke and Houston. Carter tried to swindle himself a bet that never happened and Gavin is lucky to have missed our bracket challenge. We also discuss the NBA playoff race, including Ja Morant being unable to shake gun dreams as he parades around NBA arenas shooting finger guns and tossing air grenades. Lastly we take a minute to reflect on Ovechkin setting a new goal record in the NHL and we put into perspective just how dominant Gretzky was in his time.

Sports Guyz Only; Not March Madness, Transfer Portal Problems
Friday Mar 28, 2025
Friday Mar 28, 2025
This week on Sports Guyz Only, we try to make sense of who exactly the Giants plan to start at QB and make bets on whether or not certain coaches and gm’s will lose their jobs after this season. We also talk March Madness, which hasn’t had as much madness as we’re used to this year and it’s got us wondering why. We discuss whether NIL or the transfer portal are partially to blame. Cal eats his take on Saint John’s winning it all and we break down coaching hires around the college basketball world. Thanks so much for listening and be sure to subscribe and review!

Big Mad, Next Generation
Thursday Mar 27, 2025
Thursday Mar 27, 2025
This week on the podcast the boys are feeling the off season itch. It’s that time of year and the hunters are officially losing it a little bit. Snow goose hunters are arguing all over the internet and we’re here for it. We also talk a bit about the new studio, and do a Say What segment. We wrap things up talking about what everyone needs to do to help school in the younger generations of hunters and show them the way we do it now as well as the way the older generations did it. Giving a full perspective to the history and methods of waterfowl hunting makes us all better hunters. Thanks so much for listening and be sure to subscribe and review!
