We cover it all today, with topics like:
- Lingering contract standoffs with Aiyuk & Williams
- The 49ers target on their back this year as one of the top dogs in the NFC as a whole
- Injury concerns and updates at key positions to key players?
- Is the window of key players primes starting to close?
- Impending Purdy extension next year, and the effects of that
- NFC West contender for the top spot?
- and much more!

What's up everyone, and welcome back!
Storylines are brewing in Minnesota, from the QB battle, to the changes across the board on both sides of the ball. So there is no better person to bring on than Adam Patrick himself who is the editor for FanSided covering the Vikings for TheVikingAge.com to help us break it all down.
But that's not all! Not only are the Vikings looking to revamp, but the rest of the division is also looking to take a step forward and put their bid in as one of the best divisions in the NFL. We provide updates, hot takes, and more as we breakdown the season ahead for the NFC North.

What's up everyone, and welcome back!
New NBA episode is here, and we are continuing on from the last episode but taking it down to the player level this time. Last episode we talked about which teams we predict will take a step forward or back next year, and now we are going deeper and predicting which players we could see take a leap this upcoming season.
Who better to bring in for that conversation than the Bench Mob Ent. crew!
Tone, Miles, and Greg help me break down all of our predictions as we look for potential all-stars next year, key role players that could emerge, and guys that were traded to new destinations this offseason.
If you like hoops, you know what I always say, this is the episode for you!

What's up everyone, and welcome back!
NFL training camp is upon us, so there are endless burning questions as we approach the regular season. Lucky for you, I brought on the CEO of TWSN and sports content creator, Malik Wright, to help break down all these pending questions and big storylines.
We cover questions such as:
- What teams are you the most excited for, that could take the biggest steps forward?
- Can a team that has been knocking on the door, actually get to the mountain top this year? Ravens, 49ers, Eagles, etc.
- Kansas City Chiefs 3-peat inevitable?
- Which teams could we see take a step back this year?
- Keep the good times rolling? The Texans, Lions, and Packers sure hope so... but can they?
- Which first round QB is going to have the most success in year one?
- and more!

What's up everyone! Welcome back!
Today we are covering all things NBA Offseason, so I had to bring in the man himself, Chris Lindsey, to break it all down and cover our winners and losers so far.

On top of that, summer league has kicked off and we each give our initial thoughts on this draft class and the other rising young stars showing out in Vegas this month.

What's up everyone, and welcome back!
New solo episode is here, and today I am providing the news updates, storylines, and my thoughts on each of the 32 first round picks from the 2024 NFL Draft.
OTA's, minicamps, and everything else in between has been completed so far, so we have a ton of reports out of each team's locker room about how the rookies have held up so far.
The full force July training camps are right around the corner, so there is no better time to get everyone caught up on everything so far, while providing my perspective on each of the players.
Think of this episode as me reporting the news, if you will, but I make sure to explain what I think each of these rookie's first years could look like based on the info we have... but as you all know, time will tell.
As always, thank you for the support, and make sure to follow me on Threads / Instagram (@griffin_prock) for all my sports takes, updates, and opinions. Subscribe, leave a star rating, and share this podcast with a friend if you have been enjoying it.
Hope everyone has a great 4th of July weekend!
