Hi, I'm Stefan Fatsis, and this is Slate's Sports Podcast Hang Up and Listen for the week of December 14th, 2015.

On this week's show, we will discuss the 1 in 24 Philadelphia 76ers basketball team and the end of the capital P process of its all but cashier to general manager, former boyish wonder, Sam Hinky.

Then we'll pivot from the worst team in professional sports in 2015 to the best team in 2016,

punter Pete Mortel, who was recently named by University of Minnesota punter Pete Mortel as
