The NBA trade deadline is two days away and the Kings better get a veteran back-up point guard, No disrespect to Davion Mitchell, but he isn't the guy right now. If De'Aaron Fox gets hurt for any period of time, the Kings will be in big trouble if they can't acquire another point guard. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Kings were embarrassed last night by an injury depleted Pelicans team. That's five losses in the past eight games for the Kings and to say the least they are playing poorly. All I hear from the fans, media, and coach Mike Brown is playoff this and playoff that. Stop it with that talk. The Kings are only three games from the 10th spot in the west. It's not time to panic with thirty games left, but the Kings schedule is brutal after the break. Nobody should be talking about the playoffs right now! Learn more about your ad choices.

I've said this many times the past several years. How does anyone root for Kyrie Irving? He reportedly has told the Nets to trade him before next week's deadline. What a joke! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

De'Aaron Fox of the Kings didn't make the all-star team? What a travesty! Yesterday the league announced the reserves and Fox was left off the squad. He is having a tremendous season and oh yeah, the Kings are third in the West! What a joke! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Have you ever thought of the impact of video? On today's episode I talk about Damar Hamlin and how his situation would have been different to us had we not watched it unfold live on national TV. I then get into the background of Bengals running back Joe Mixon. I read excerpts from Phil Mushnick's column in the NY Post from two weeks ago. Yesterday an arrest warrant was issued for Mixon for allegedly pointing a gun at a woman. Mixon is denying the incident. What about Ray Rice? Would he have been able to resume his career with the Ravens if we hadn't seen him punching his fiancée in an elevator? The answer mostly likely is yes. Learn more about your ad choices.

A few thoughts as we get ready for next week's Super Bowl. Thank goodness the game is on Fox and not CBS. I don't think I could handle Tony Romo for three hours. While I would have been fine if the Niners were in the big game I am thrilled I won't have to deal with watching Jerry Rice's herculean ego! Enough already! Learn more about your ad choices.

Sean Payton is the new head coach of the Broncos. My question is why Denver for Payton? I know he is getting a boatload of money, but Russell Wilson looks like a QB on the decline, and they have lost a lot of draft picks as well. I like Payton a lot as a coach, but now he is in a division playing against Patrick Mahomes and Justin Herbert four times a year. Good luck! Learn more about your ad choices.

On today's episode I talk about my two passions, sports and travel. I share my early experiences of watching planes on approach to JFK Airport and why I love flying so much! I talk about my international trips with the Kings to Japan and China as well. I also discuss how I was able to check off a bucket list item by travelling around the world in business class for little money! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It was not a good weekend for refs in the NBA and NFL. The NBA refs missed a clear foul at the end of the Lakers and Celtics game and the NFL Championship games were poorly officiated. NBA refs are getting killed for putting out a tweet after the missed call that would of sent Lebron James to the line with no time remaining. You can argue all you want about whether the tweet was right, or wrong, but you can't debate the content of the tweet! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It will be the Eagles vs the Chiefs in the Super Bowl in two weeks. Apparently, many people are feeling sorry for Joesph Ossai of the Bengals for his late hit on Patrick Mahomes that set up the game winning kick. I'm not one of them. Ossai's hit was stupid, plain and simple and he cost his team a shot of going to the Super Bowl. Speaking of stupid, if you are one of those criticizing 49ers coach Kyle Shannahan today, stop it. The minute Niners QB Brock Purdy injured his arm the game was over. Period! Speaking of stupid did you see the Empire State Building last night? Emabrrassing!!! Learn more about your ad choices.

This should be a great weekend for the NFL. San Francisco and Philadelphia in the NFC and Cincinnati at Kansas City in the AFC. On today's episode I preview both games.

The NBA announced the starters for the upcoming all-star game in Utah next month. As expected there are complaints about some of the selections. Here's the bottom line. If the fans comprise 50% of the vote, then you can't complain. In my opinion, fans voting is a joke! Can't have it both ways. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Kings are currently 3rd in the west, but that's not all. They have also built up a five game cushion in the loss column over the 5th place Clippers. That is a significant advantage with less than half the season left. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On today's episode I talk to the man that helped me immensely when I first started this podcast. Jeff taught me everything I needed to know, including editing, distributing, and marketing my work! Over a year ago Jeff was diagnosed with a very serious heart issue. Jeff is an avid cycler, was in tip top condition, but he almost lost his life due to his heart ailment! Jeff is doing a podcast series called "Imperfect Heart". I hope this episode and Jeff's work helps many who have the same symptoms as Jeff had. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Kings host the Grizzlies tonight. Memphis lost last night in Phoenix and their starters logged a lot of minutes in a two-point loss. The Kings are coming off a bad loss to Philly who played without Joel Embiid and James Harden. Which Kings team will show up tonight? And will they get crushed on the boards again going against Steven Adams? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Same ole story for the Dallas Cowboys. Good team with an overhyped and overpaid QB in Dak Prescott. Prescott's interceptions against the 49ers yesterday were awful and he should have another when he put right into the chest of Dre Greenlaw with just over two minutes left in the game! Plain and simple, Prescott is good, but that's it! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ivan Provorov of the Philadelphia Flyers continues to face criticism for not joining his teammates on the ice for warmups a few nights ago while wearing special warm-up jerseys to celebrate Pride night. Provorov cited personal religious beliefs for not participating. Last month the world's biggest sporting event was held in Qatar. Qatar is a nation that forbids same-sex relations. Major companies have no problem putting rainbow colors on social media accounts etc here in the US, but remove the colors in other countries around the world. It all adds up to this! Hypocrisy and double standards. If you have a problem with Provorov, don't watch the Flyers games anymore. If you are one of the critics and you watched the World Cup, then in my book you are a hypocrite! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On today's show I preview the NFL Divisional games beginning with the Jaguars and Chiefs. This is the one game where I would be very surprised if the underdog won. I'm not sure the Jaguars are ready to win a game of this magnitude. The Giants are 7.5 dogs vs the Eagles. If Jalen Hurts is able to perform at 100%, or close to it the Giants will have a tough time winning this one. Sunday's games appear to be great with Buffalo hosting Cincinnati and the 49ers at home vs the Cowboys. Enjoy the games! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Kings take on the Lakers tonight in LA. These teams met less than two weeks ago in Sactown and the Lakers scored at will beating the Kings 136-134. Will the Kings attempt to play some defense tonight, or just figure they can outscore their opponent? The lakers are running out of time to try and get back in the playoff picture, so I expect them to bring their A game. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Yesterday we celebrated the life and legacy of Dr Martin Luther King Jr. What would the great reverend say if he were alive today? On today's episode I talk about some of my favorite quotes from MLK and how he would be appalled about what happened to former ESPN tennis commentator Doug Adler. I read a story from Phil Mushnick from the NY Post who calls out the William's sisters, Venus and Serena, along with John McEnroe and Chris Evertt for remaining silent regarding Adler's firing by ESPN.
