Dolphins and NFL QBs with Sage Rosenfels May 14, 2018

Show notes

5R50: Chris isn't around, so Ethan welcomes former Dolphins quarterback Sage Rosenfels, who spent 12 years in the NFL and now works for The Athletic Minnesota, and has spent several years studying -- and writing and talking about -- quarterbacks. They start by talking about Sage's Dolphins days from 2002-2005, before discussing some of the NFL's most interesting quarterback situations, and how teams should handle them. They start (10:50) with Ryan Tannehill and the Dolphins; devote Part 2 (18:36) to whether the Vikings are really better with Kirk Cousins; spend Part 3 (31:33) on whether John Elway finally fixed the Broncos' problem with Case Keenum; move to Part 4 (37:00) on whether it matters that rookie Arizona QB Josh Rosen is outspoken; and finish with Part 5 (47:30) by going rapid-fire through the Jets, Bills, Ravens and Browns. They also talk about his "Free Ricky" Williams shirts, Eddie Moore/Anquan Boldin, Jesse Palmer (the Bachelor), Colin Kaepernick and more.

BONUS CONTENT: Champions League, Liverpool with Simon Clancy May 02, 2018

Show notes

We launched into a bit of soccer talk to close our conversation with Simon Clancy for Tuesday's mostly Dolphins-centric pod. It was good enough that we wanted to offer it as an extra bit of content for you the listener. We talked about Liverpool's run to the Champions League semifinal, Simon's experiences at Anfield going to their 3-0 win over Manchester City and 5-2 win over Roma, and whether winning the Premier League or the Champions League is more important.

We can also announce that 5 Reasons Sports later this month will be launching a soccer podcast! Chris Wittyngham will host a Miami, US, and international soccer pod. Suggest names for the pod at @5ReasonsSports on twitter.

NBA Playoffs: LeBron Escape, Heat Issues, Thunder Flop Apr 30, 2018

Show notes

5R44- Ethan and Chris discuss the latest happenings in the NBA Playoffs. They go over LeBron’s Game 7 victory over Indiana and the Cavaliers' vulnerability heading into their series with Toronto, which team that got eliminated in Round 1 was most promising (Pacers?) and most needs to blow up their blueprint (maybe the Heat), which team of New Orleans and Utah can give the Warriors or the Rockets a better series, and if the Celtics can make their series with the Sixers difficult on Philly.
