Summary

Opening weekend of the NFL had tons of story lines. The guys discuss and debate them all. The Nuggets refuse to go away quietly against the Clippers, forcing a game 7! Will the Nuggets positive momentum drive them to the Western conference finals? Or can the stars of the Clippers will them to a showdown with the Lakers? The Heat and Celtics is a tasty matchup... Miami is a dangerous team. Who you like? Clemson took the field over the weekend and showed why Dabo Swinney was so anxious to play this season... Their team is stacked! Will the Big Ten begin play soon? Plus, the guys have seen a lot of tennis in their day but nothing quite like the comeback we saw at the US Open. Don't miss their analysis. And of course paring shots!
