Look Back At It: 2023 Round 1

I cannot believe the last few days happened. Myself, Andrew and some assortment of the Boken Boys and call in’s will do our usual deep dive tomorrow but I’ve been jacked up for nearly 24 hours so I needed to get some thoughts down on paper (my phone screen) to try to chill.

Are You There God? It’s me Be@n$o

I’m dead. Vaxxed?

When I was baptized in late 1996 or early 1997 (I don’t know how old babies are when they take the plunge) the water must’ve been contaminated with bad juju. I’ve never dealt with any loss whatsoever, I grew up in a stable home, I’ve never wanted for anything, I’m pretty smart and have a fulfilling job, I have wonderful family and friends and have countless happy memories. My life has seriously been an endless loop of good luck and good times. With all of that being said I can’t help but to think I’m cursed. Maybe the baptism water was actually budlight.

League Talk 2023: Week 10 & 11 Review

There are a few things we need to address right off the top.

First of all, we all know this is a 2-for-1 special. I was busy last week celebrating my birthday and didn’t care to jot down notes when listening to the Week 10 episode. So here’s my brief recap: Jack is back and Meghan does the intro now. Cool. Certified Fresh: 69% 🍅.

League Talk 2023: Week 9 Review

“The light has gone out of my life,” – Theodore Roosevelt.

Mr. Prez went dark on us back in that sad day in 1884. But here in early November of 2023, I feel him.

League Talk: 2023 – Week 8 Review

Is this the fall of Rome? Perhaps not, but without two-thirds of BVB (Beans, Vigs, Bones) the show must go on. And it did.

Many wondered if Bones and Zook had the “right stuff” to handle business alone. As the Crimson Tide football team says, “Let a naysayer know.” The rest of the league is now on notice.

League Talk: 2023 – Week 7 Review

The future is female and League Talk is finally on board.

For the first time in the history of the show, a female voice was heard on the program. The legendary Arielle Pistiner, a long-time friend and Brent’s first girlfriend, called in to discuss the No. 1 topic in all of football: Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift.

League Talk: 2023 – Week 6 Review

“R.I.P. grandpa, you would have loved Sapphires.”

Any episode with a line as powerful as that MUST be a winner.

League Talk: 2023 – Week 5 Review

A Tuesday night pod will always make things interesting. Guys on byes, waiver moves not yet made and a whole host of other things.

And yet, none of that could prepare us for one of the wilder opens in League Talk history.

League Talk: 2023 – Week 4 Review

A broken hip and a mouth injury suffered during a “tumble.” No, this is not the injury report from your local nursing home, it’s a status update on two of your favorite Hoboken residents.

In the history of fantasy football podcasts, rarely, if ever, have two hosts been as disheveled as Ryan and Brendan this week. Honestly, it’s hard to say if two roommates have ever had a week like this in recorded history. Jack, run the numbers.

The Wire: Weeks 7 & 8

Yoooooo, I missed last week because I was running around getting ready to go away, so here’s a quick two-fer. Lots of transactions Week 7 but not much action on The Wire, probably even less in Week 8. Gotta put together a LeagueStory to run through some of the overarching trends of the season so far, but that’s for another time:
