Show Notes

Steve interviews Eamonn Brennan (00:10:53) college basketball writer for The Athletic. Eamonn joins us to let us know what has been happening in college basketball while we were watching football. Eammon talks about Duke. North Carolina and Kentucky and explains why each of them are on the bubble this year. Brennan also talks about Houston, UCLA, and Purdue and explains why they are all going to popular picks to win it all when we do brackets next month. The guys also talk about college basketball's best players, a potential scandal in Alabama, and the powerful Big XII. Also, Kevin Snow (00:56:29) makes his debut to talk about his new book, "The Science of Hockey." Kevin shares stories from his long career on the PR team of the Sabres including finding out Jay McKee was out for Game 7 and where he was when Chris Drury and Danny Briere left on July 1, 2007. Kevin also talks about his love for the Toronto Blue Jays, working for the WWE, and his time with NHL.com. Finally, Steve and Kevin break down the book and talk about his research, the NHL's reluctance to be involved, and his love of the draft. Kevin also talks about the secret surrounding the hockey puck, how he got the gig writing about the science of hockey, and explains why his wife loved to read the book one chapter at a time. Steve kicks off the show talking about the 2022-23 Buffalo Sabres fatal flaw, Italy's success in European soccer competitions, and the New York Rangers broadcasting from a toilet. The book club says goodbye to the science of hockey and adds a bunch of new books including one about the greatest promotor in sport's history.
