Summary

Hello! It's the podcast that agrees it's sexier when "ass bash" doesn't rhyme, and that somehow that's a sentence about the Philadelphia Eagles. Today, Katie and the Casualties repent for an erroneously reported outcome of Lynx-Mercury last week, and revel in the discovery of Fat Bear Week in Alaska, then break down the announcement of Bad Bunny as this year's Super Bowl Halftime headliner, Katie's choice of Red Sox jersey on her trip through New York today, Isabella truly learning what it's like to be a Mets fan after this year's version of a September collapse, the schadenfreude of the Astros missing the postseason, the joy of Seattle winning the AL West and the sadness of Root Sports' final Mariners broadcast, Josh Naylor's gamechanging* speed, the Mariners fan who gave Cal Raleigh's 60th home run ball to a kid, the WNBA playoffs, officiating, and Cheryl Reeve's ejection over the weekend, the Mercury moving on to the Finals, Mike Nolan's secondhand Ryder Cup reaction, the American fans' embarrassing performance, and what it means to root for Team USA conditionally, Week 4 in the NFL and Tyreek Hill's injury, the relevance of "culottes" in a 21st century lexicon, the Ravens' third L and Stavros' wellbeing, Adonai Mitchell becoming a household name, Jaxson Dart's chiseled war face, and what to watch this week in sports.
