Greg Bedard of BostonSportsJournal.com joins the show and opens the hour with his thoughts on the Patriots' season-opening loss to the Seahawks.
Simone: Paul George and Mike Conley Jr. said what was expected (with some sprinkles of intrigue)
Introductory press conferences are always tough. By and large, there’s little to glean about a player from their first time speaking to reporters in a new city. It may reveal a bit about their personality or mindset heading into the season, but beyond that, it’s pretty cookie-cutter.

Bedard's Breakdown (Defense): Patriots get off to a strong start in Seattle, but there are a few lingering issues
We'll never know how things would have played out if Drew Lock hadn't had to replace Sam Darnold, but the result was largely the same as the Super Bowl: the defense played well enough to win; the offense did not.
Haggerty: Hagens puts on a big show in B's rookie camp
It was pretty clear that 19-year-old James Hagens understood the assignment in Buffalo at the Prospect Showcase over the last few days and then proceeded to go out and show exactly what the Bruins wanted him to show.
Giardi: With a bigger opportunity, Williams needs to shine; plus, Jones reunites with Vrabel
I’ll say this for Kyle Williams: the man doesn’t lack confidence. When asked what he brings to the table beyond the obvious - speed - he smiled and gave us this gem:

MLB Notebook: Chad Tracy has Red Sox pointed toward the postseason, Rafael Devers closing in on history
It’s the time of year when Major League Baseball has to share the stage.All eyes turn toward the NFL’s Week 1 schedule Sunday, and rightfully so. Baseball may still be America’s pastime, but football, at least the American version, dominates the airwaves 24/7.

If you're second-guessing Josh McDaniels' offensive gameplan, or Mike Vrabel's game management ... that's fine, but you're missing the plot. Maybe you had sky-high offensive expectations considering Maye's 2025 season, and the additions of A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs. Maybe you're a big Maye fan, and you just want to make excuses for him, like in the Super Bowl (he was not hampered physically), and just don't want to face or hear the truth: Maye lost the game. Period.
