We’re already a quarter into 2021! Time is passing us by, so make the most of it! While I’m at it, I ALWAYS make sure to deliver everything in the world of sports with lots of passion, entertainment and excitement as Episode 187 is ready for action! On deck:

(5:36) We’re down to the Elite Eight in the NCAA Men’s Tournament. I’ll recap what took place over the weekend with an eye on who may move on to the Final Four! How does this tournament compare to years’ past? And a couple of new coaching hires in the sport have made some news.

(30:59) The MLB season is on the horizon! I’ll go through all of the divisions, my six over/under win total predictions, as well as, who’ll play in the Fall Classic and win! Plus, a preview of my beloved Mets! What’s the teams biggest weakness? Can they contend in the NL East?

(1:04:00) The NBA Trade Deadline has come and gone, but two free agents made the biggest noise as LaMarcus Aldridge goes to Brooklyn and Andre Drummond signs with the Lakers. Are they on a collision course to meet in the Finals?

(1:13:42) The NFL Draft is a month from today and some big trade news at the top of the draft took place. The Dolphins were wheeling and dealing with the 49ers and Eagles as they have plenty of draft capital in the first three rounds of the draft. How will the top six picks play out? Will the Jets draft a QB? What about the Niners? Also, the NFL will expand their regular season schedule to 17 games. Why I DESPISE the move? And news on Steelers WR Chase Claypool’s parking lot scuffle two weeks ago? Will there be repercussions?

(1:31:17) NHL referee Tim Peel gets his ‘early retirement’ papers after his assessment of a penalty was picked up on his microphone. Did the NHL do the right thing by terminating him for life?

(1:34:53) Francis Ngannou is your new MMA heavyweight champion. Is a bout with famed fighter, Jon Jones, up next?

(1:36:10) Oscar de la Hoya is attempting to make a comeback? Seriously? I’ll add my two shiny red cents on that.

(1:38:09) Plus, my Hero and Zero of the Week.
