The NFL versus the NBA: which sport is harder?

5/19/2024
Former NBA guard Austin Rivers’ comments about it being easier for NBA players to play football than it would be for NFL players to play basketball is the latest and loudest version of a debate that’s been raging on forever. As a former hooper myself, I have my own thoughts (and biases!) on the matter, but I set out to end the debate once and for all by putting together a football team comprised ENTIRELY of current NBA players. Tap in for the kind of reasoning and logic you’ve come to expect from yours truly and leave your own thoughts in the comments!

A record-breaking NCAA Tournament that saw Dawn Staley and the South Carolina Gamecocks cap off their undefeated season with a national title has many basketball fans going through hoops withdrawal, but WNBA season is right around the corner! The festivities kick off Monday, April 15th with the WNBA draft where you can see where some of March Madness’ biggest stars are going to spend their pro career.

KDot explains what exactly Kamilla Cardoso did during the Gamecocks’ title run to help her draft stock and where she can expect to go in the top 4. He also addresses why some are expecting Caitlin Clark to have an adjustment period to the pro game, whether history tells us that’s accurate, and how you can expect CC to contribute immediately to the Indiana Fever.

Kevin also breaks down Angel Reese’s game and tells me which WNBA coach he thinks can help her maximize her potential.

Born into a family of diehard sports fans, Tellez was encouraged to try any and every sport as he grew into a talented athlete.

Tune in to hear Jose’s story as he talks about the importance of trying as many things as possible to find your passion, how devastating events can actually help guide you to your true calling, the journey he took to get Golz TV where it is today, and how he sees soccer growing in America!

The 1983 NBA Champion Philadelphia 76ers with Tanya Morris of Mom Your Business!

2/5/2024
The 1980s NBA was dominated by the rivalry between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics, but 1 team managed to have a more dominant title run than either of them: the 1983 Philadelphia 76ers! Philly’s own Tanya Morris of Mom Your Business joins me to talk about one of the league’s most forgotten championship teams! Tanya tells me how her hometown team caught her attention initially by acquiring the legendary Julius Erving. We also discuss the weird circumstances that led to Dr. J going to the 76ers and his immediate impact! While the Doctor was certainly the biggest name on the team, the 76ers slowly surrounded him with an incredible supporting cast of Hall of Fame-level talent. Maurice Cheeks, Bobby Jones, Andrew Toney, and more played important roles for the perennial Eastern Conference contenders, but they are mostly forgotten today so we show them some love! Speaking of underrated stars, Tanya talks about what it was like when the 76ers got the final piece of their championship puzzle, Moses Malone. She tells me how great he was prior to coming to Philly, how the city reacted to his acquisition, and how the move compares to Kevin Durant joining the Golden State Warriors. Then, after years of getting close but coming up short, the 76ers have a historic regular season and playoff run that leads to an NBA title! Tanya talks about the excitement of watching that in real-time, how it felt when the final buzzer sounded, and her level of optimism about the team moving forward. Unfortunately, that core group of 76ers never reached that level again. We talk about the injuries and bad moves that led to the franchise going from potential dynasty to one of the worst in the league. We couldn’t talk about Philadelphia 76ers basketball without talking about Allen Iverson. Clearly, AI was an incredible player and cultural icon, but Tanya tells me just how much love the city has for him! We also talk about what it was like being in the city as he led the team back to the NBA Finals. Tanya also tells me about some other Philly basketball legends! We finish up the basketball talk with the current 76ers squad. Has the team met expectations for this season? Are they headed in the right direction? Tanya also gives a detailed breakdown of Joel Embiid’s game. Finally, Tanya tells me about the great work she’s doing at Mom Your Business! She explains how she’s working to address poverty in the Black community, the extra obstacles facing Black entrepreneurs, and why the success of Black women leads to the success of everyone!

We talk about the motivation behind starting his podcasts, why he decided to do not 1 but 2 podcasts, and overcoming nerves to take that first step! He also tells me how he tries to provide something different in an oversaturated podcasting market while also making his content something everybody can relate to. Then, he breaks down the many different ways he uses social media for good (booking guests, promotion, etc.), and how he’s able to use social media while also staying away from the negativity that can be found on it. Most importantly, Danny explains to me the importance of having fun with what you do and not being afraid to celebrate your successes!

Man vs. Dog: Who is the better NFL analyst?

1/20/2024
My dog, Kobe, normally handles all my NFL picks, but I’ve decided to see how I stack up against him using this week’s NFL Divisional Round games! Not only do we both make picks, but I also provide some light analysis as well as a few storylines to pay attention to! The first game is the Houston Texans versus the Baltimore Ravens. Texans rookie QB C.J. Stroud has had an incredible season, including last week’s performance against the Browns. But can he do enough to overcome MVP frontrunner Lamar Jackson and the Ravens? Then, we look at the Green Bay Packers versus the San Francisco 49ers. This one brings back memories! Can the Packers make some more and pull off a second straight upset this postseason? Or are the 49ers just too powerful? The Detroit Lions versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is probably the most lowkey matchup of the weekend. Can the Lions use an extra caffeinated Dan Campbell to build on their newfound playoff success? Or will Baker Mayfield shock the world? Also, I give some love to an underappreciated future Hall of Famer! We finish up with the marquee matchup of the weekend, the Buffalo Bills versus the Kansas City Chiefs! These two know each other well and it hasn’t gone Buffalo’s way when they’ve matched up in the playoffs before, but can the Bills take advantage of a down year for the Chiefs offense to get over the hump? Tap in! The Rundown: 00:00 Intro 01:37 Texans vs. Ravens 05:48 49ers vs. Packers 10:02 Bucs vs. Lions 13:35 Bills vs. Chiefs Don't forget to support Catch Da Beat Apparel Co.!

Why Michael Jordan fans should LOVE Jerry Krause!

1/18/2024
Chicago Bulls fans are still upset at the way their dynasty ended in 1998 and booed the team’s late general manager, Jerry Krause, at a Ring of Honor ceremony last week.

Is LeBron James a coach killer?

1/15/2024
The Los Angeles Lakers are once again off to a slow start which means head coach Darvin Ham is officially on the hot seat. This is a common occurrence for LeBron James-led teams, but is it his fault? And why doesn’t he have a coach associated with his greatness the way other all-time greats do? Let’s take a look back at LeBron’s career to see if we can get some answers! I go coach-by-coach to examine their relationship with LeBron at the time, how their teams performed, why their time as the coach came to an end, and the role LeBron played in it all!

The ONLY National Championship Preview You Need!

1/7/2024
Special Sunday show! P.D. Inabinett of the Gamecocks Football Captain's Log joins me to preview the matchup between the Washington Huskies and the Michigan Wolverines! We start off by looking back at each team’s season to see how they got here in the first place. Then, we discuss what to expect in the game itself. Is Michigan’s defense for real? Or will Michael Penix Jr. tear them apart like he’s done every other team this year? We go over what has to happen for each team to win AND what we think will happen! After that, we zoom out and recap the season as a whole. What surprised us? Did the Playoff Committee make the right picks? Was Jaylen Daniels really the Heisman winner in our eyes? We also talk about how the Heisman Trophy has changed in our lifetimes and what we think the criteria should be. Finally, we look ahead to the expanded college football playoffs that are on the way starting next season. Does it make sense? Is the season too long? And should anything be done about the transfer portal? Tap in and enjoy! Want more PD? Check him out right here on this channel on the Gamecocks Football Captain’s Log!

Signing Shohei and how breaking news broke the news!

12/22/2023
Brett comes by to recap the wildness that was the Shohei Ohtani free agency saga! As diehard college football fans, how shocked were we that the baseball media failed so hard at the plane-tracking game? How scared were we that the Blue Jays rumors were true? Then, we have an extended discussion on the state of sports media and media as a whole. We debate the value of news breakers, the role the attention economy plays, and who is ultimately to blame for it all. I also get to rant about Pat McAfee and Aaron Rodgers for longer than it took to get my actual point across. Tap in!

Grinch Season: Draymond latest suspension and Giannis' game ball!

12/18/2023
As the holidays approach, not everybody is in a jolly mood! We take a look at how a couple of NBA stars compare to the Grinch who stole Christmas! Draymond Green has been suspended yet again. What does his latest tantrum tell us about how Draymond views his actions? Have those actions been enabled by the Golden State Warriors organization, including Steve Kerr and Steph Curry? More importantly, will he ever turn it around? Then, we move on to the most childish NBA beef in recent history: Giannis Antetokounmpo’s quest to retrieve a game ball from the Indiana Pacers. Are we finally seeing some cracks in Giannis’ made-for-Disney persona? Who REALLY deserved the ball? Let’s do a breakdown on the post-game press conference and see if we can figure out the TRUTH!

The In-Season Tournament, Women’s College Hoops, and WNBA Draft Lottery!

12/11/2023
It’s fastbreak time! Go around the hoops world quick, fast, and in a hurry! First up, recapping the NBA’s In-Season Tournament! The Indiana Pacers have themselves a star in Tyrese Haliburton! He’s the key to the league’s most impressive offense. Did his “Dame Time” celebration make Damien Lillard mad? Should it have? Next, it’s time we have the Zion discussion. What is going on? Were Shaq and Charles Barkley right to stage an on-air intervention? How many more chances is he going to get to get in shape and fulfill his enormous potential? We move on to talk about how I feel about the Lakers winning the tournament. What makes LeBron so incredible and why didn’t Sports Illustrated see Austin Reaves coming? Also, does this tournament win actually mean anything? Speaking of winning, the South Carolina Lady Gamecocks have done a lot of that under Dawn Staley. A lot of people thought this year would be different…but they were loud wrong! What makes this season so impressive and can they really contend for a national championship? Then, I tell you why to pay attention to Utah’s Alissa Pili and UCLA’s Lauren Betts! And we finish up talking about my early thoughts on the WNBA’s draft lottery and a couple of prospects you should be watching. Tap in!
