Joe, Doug, Keith, and Ron discuss the Blues, Cardinals, Chiefs, Mizzou, and the college football playoffs. Transfer portal madness continues, and Joe expresses his true feelings toward Kirk Herbstreit, which sounds like a description of David Simms. Keith is ready to accept tasty donuts in return for a one-time Cardinal All-Star, and Doug says semantics aside, this is a rebuild. And the guys remember Rickey Henderson, who was truly one-of-a-kind.

In the first episode of Bet the Blue Shoe: A Sports Betting Podcast from The Sportists, Joe and Keith break down the four college football playoff games this weekend. They also find time to consider the Texans visit to Kansas City to take on the Chiefs and Keith has some Sunday Sleepers.

Patrick Mahomes is twisted like a pretzel by the Browns and April, Keith and Ron discuss how it impacts the season for the Chiefs. Will Nolan Arenado head to Houston and is Nolan Gorman fielding by sound at third base? What is the vibe in Austin around the Longhorns as Transfer Portal and NIL mayhem run rampant as the first college football 12-team playoff approach? And Keith analyzes whether we should reevaluate our expectations for the Blues after the strong start under Jim Montgomery.
