The Sports as Life Podcast - From Rags to Rags, Episode 3

I know you've been waiting with bated breath but fear not dear reader, your wait is over - episode 3 of From Rags to Rags is upon you. Tremble with anticipation!

Anyway, this episode marks the first three-way in From Rags to Rags' short history - as both Cooper and Trebor join me on the program. And my thanks to them for coming on.

This episode taught me four things:
1) Having an idea of what you want to talk about before you start recording would probably be a good thing.
2) I can't do math.
3) I can't tell time.
4) I use the phrase, "Is that right?" more often than I breathe.



In any case, it's a good show - so give it a listen.


And as always you can find us on iTunes or download the show here.

Oh, and here's the Mike Singletary video. If you've never seen it, watch it right now.



It's a good thing I didn't play it during the show, I would have just giggled overtop of the whole thing.

The Sports As Life Podcast - From Rags to Rags, Episode 2


I know you've been waiting and waiting - and it's finally here, Episode 2 of From Rags to Rags.

In this episode Trebor stops by and we discuss NFL free agency and trades. For 52 minutes. Seriously, get comfortable and don't worry about finding something to do for the next hour.

Unfortunately, the Terrell Owens story broke about an hour after we'd finished taping, so we'll have to get Trebor's reaction to that.


As always you can also download the show directly from http://sportsaslife.podbean.com/ or get us directly from iTunes.

In the episode I said I'd put up a couple links, but I can't for the life of me remember what they were. But when I remember or someone reminds me what they are, I'll put them up. Update: Here's the link.

The Sports As Life Podcast - From Rags to Rags, Episode 1


It finally happened - we've gone digital. Well, more digital - seeing as though you're reading this on the Internet and all. If you dare to click the play button on the audio player below, you'll be treated to the dulcet tones of the very first episode of the Sports As Life podcast - which for now I've titled From Rags to Rags.

In Episode 1, Cooper and I discuss the impending remake of the movie Slap Shot. Our only goal for the podcast was for it not to be the worst thing on the Internet, and I think we succeeded.


There may be one or two strong words in the podcast, so it's not 100% safe for work - but it's pretty close.

If you'd rather not spend 27 minutes sitting in front of your computer, you can directly download this episode at:

http://sportsaslife.podbean.com/

Hopefully, the podcast will be up and running soon on iTunes and then you'll be able to download it directly from there. For the time being, to download the podcast in iTunes:
1. Open the Advanced drop-down menu at the top of your toolbar
2. Paste this link into the box that pops up: http://sportsaslife.podbean.com/feed
3. Click 'Ok' and the podcast should start downloading automatically

Referenced in the podcast was a video of the Rock. This is the clip in question if you'd like to view it for yourself (fast forward to 2:20 mark):
