5-19-26 - Game 7 theatrics, OKC vs Wemby/Makar's injury, MacKinnon motivation/No need for backup center
1w ago00:42:42Tap to summarize0:00 - Best two words in sports: Game 7. Buffalo vs Montreal was, as the Scorsese meme goes, Absolute Cinema. Shoutout former Av Alex Newhook for the OT game winner! He's scored 2 Game 7 game-winning goals in the same playoff series. Speaking of absolute cinema, how about Wemby carving up the Thunder on the road in Game 1 of the WCF? Wemby has been just as good as advertised, if not better. He's only 22 years old. Strap in, y'all. He's gonna be a problem for a LONG time.14:51 - Just how bad is Cale Makar's injury? It definitely looks like a shoulder, but it's not officially confirmed yet. Can you afford to sit him if he's not ready? Should he push through no matter what?After that, people are saying that Nathan MacKinnon is on some sort of revenge tour right now because of the Olympics loss. His silver medal and that stoat plushie are fueling him on a reign of terror through the NHL. Brett says that narrative is false. MacKinnon is motivated because he's MacKinnon. If he won a gold medal with Canada, you're saying he'd be less motivated to win Lord Stanley again?32:18 - The Nuggets are probably going to let Valanciunas go. They STILL need a backup center. Or...do they? If they keep going through backup center candidates year after year and can't find a viable option, maybe that's because they don't need one. Their Jokic-based system doesn't require one.
Transcribe →5-18-26 - Stanley Cup is the hardest to win/Should Jokic be more involved?/Shams spoils MVP party
1w ago00:43:29Tap to summarize0:00 - Coach Bednar spoke over the weekend about why the Stanley Cup is the hardest trophy to win in all of sports. It takes SO MANY factors to win. Some of them are in your control, and a lot of them aren't. 16:17 - SGA won his 2nd-straight NBA MVP over the weekend and it got Brett thinking...Jokic isn't very involved in Nuggets roster decisions. At least not publicly. Should he be more involved? He's the 3x MVP who's about to sign a super duper max extension. Maybe he SHOULD be more vocal with the front office. 34:14 - The NBA on Amazon Prime broadcast was pefectly primed to announce the NBA MVP in prime time (pardon the puns). Then, Shams tweeted out the announcement at 7:50am MT. Why would he do that? Did he have ulterior motives for spoiling the MVP announcement like 12 hours early?
Transcribe →5-15-26 - Avs will face Vegas in WCF/Full Broncos schedule released/Are new movies lame or is Brett old?
2w ago00:43:26Tap to summarize0:00 - It's official: the Avalanche will face the Golden Knights in the Western Conference Final. How do we like the matchup? How does Vegas stack up to Minnesota?14:15 - Happy NFL Schedule Release Day! (yesterday) What did we think of the Broncos schedule release video? How about the schedule itself? The first 6 weeks of the season are a friggin GAUNTLET. 31:55 - Brett saw the trailer for the new Will Ferrell Netflix show "Hawk" about a washed up golfer attempting to make a comeback. It got Brett thinking...are new comedies just plain bad these days? Are there not many good movies anymore? Or is Brett just getting old?
Transcribe →5-14-26 - AVS WIN GAME 5 IN OT, PUNCH THEIR TICKET TO WESTERN CONFERENCE FINAL
2w ago00:42:32Tap to summarizeYou guessed it. Today's entire Appetizer Hour is about one thing and one thing only: the Colorado Freakin Avalanche beating the Minnesota Wild in Game 5, winning the series, and punching their ticket back to the Western Conference Final for the first time since 2022.0:00 - What a comeback for the Avs! They immediately went down 3-0 in the first period, tied it late in the 3rd period with quick back-to-back goals, forced OT, when won it in OT. My goodness. That game was anything but pretty, but all that matters is the final score. Happy Trails, Minnesota Wild!14:51 - Mackenzie Blackwood started in net, got shelled for 3 goals in the first period, so Bednar pulled him and went with Wedgewood the rest of the way. And it worked. After the game, Bedsie said the abysmal start was everyone's fault. It wasn't just Blackwood. It was everyone around him too.Also, the Avs are proving in these playoffs that they can win every type of game: high-scoring, low-scoring, physical, slow, fast, you name it. You know which teams have that kind of versatility? Championship teams. 31:21 - You'd better root for Anaheim and Vegas to go 7 games. The Avs need all the rest they can get right now! We need guys like Lehky and Malinski back for the next round.After that, Nathan MacKinnon caught up with the TNT crew after the game and answered the two burning questions on everyone's minds: how's his nose, and why was he swimming in a hotel pool with flippers?
Transcribe →5-13-26 - Still can't believe McCarron/Broncos @ Chiefs to start the year/Rockies got Skenes'd
2w ago00:43:31Tap to summarize0:00 - Here we are 2 days later, and Brett still can't that Michael McCarron did what he did in Game 4. Hockey is the only sport in the WORLD where the players are not only allowed to police themselves, but it's encourages and ALLOWED. And yet, he spent the whole game flopping and yapping at the refs. That's certianly a choice.15:21 - The Broncos will start the year by playing the Chiefs on Monday Night Football...on the road...in KC. Is that a disrespectful move? The Broncos were within spitting distance of the Super Bowl, and yet they didn't earn a home game in Week 1? That doesn't feel right.32:08 - The Rockies an into an immovable object last night named Paul Skenes. That guy is unbelievable.
Transcribe →5-12-26 - Avs win Game 4 decisively/"Dirty" Josh Manson/Mack takes puck to the nose, Broncos-Chiefs MNF
2w ago00:42:21Tap to summarize0:00 - ONE. MORE. WIN. That's all the Avs need to punch their ticket to the Western Conference Final. They beat the Wild last night in Game 4 and looked COMPLETELY different from Game 3. Much improved. Way more focused & bought in. 14:51 - Josh Manson got in a scuffle with Michael McCarron last night. He rammed his stick into the side of McCarron's head/neck area. DURING THE GAME, in an intermission interview, McCarron said Manson's a dirty player. Again, he said that DURING THE GAME. That's crazy! He doubled down on the dirtiness in his postgame comments. And honestly. GOOD. You need a pest that gets in your opponent's head.31:21 - MacKinnon caught a slapshot right in the face. Stopped that puck with his nose. Next period, he was back in the game. Even got the game-sealing empty-net goal. Hockey players are truly built different. After that, we learned today that the first Monday Night Football game of the season is scheduled for September 14 between...the Broncos and the Chiefs! Hell yeah, brother. What a way to start the season. But, Brett said this is an indication of something larger...
Transcribe →5-11-26 - Avs fall flat in Game 3/Nuggets End of the Season presser/How will the Avs respond?
2w ago00:42:59Tap to summarize0:00 - Well, it's not gonna be a 2nd round sweep for the Avs. They fell flat in Game 3 and lost to the Wild 5-1. Why did the Avs play so poorly? What was the cause?16:31 - On Friday, the Nuggets held their End of the Season press conference at Ball Arena. Josh Kroenke, David Adelman, Jon Wallace, and Ben Tenzer all addressed the media. What did they have to say about the disappointing end to Denver's season, and more importantly, what happens next?32:34 - The Avs lost Game 3. No need to panic yet! It's playoff hockey. Minnesota is a good team. So, how will the Avs respond tonight? If Minnesota evens the series at 2-2 heading back to Denver, will you be concerned?
Transcribe →5-08-26 - Can the Wild win Game 3?/Nuggets End of Year Presser/Hastings thinks Brett's stupid
3w ago00:42:20Tap to summarize0:00 - Do the Wild have a snowball's chance in hell of winning tonight? How could they do it? If you're in that Wild locker room trying to rally the boys to a Game 3 victory over the Avs, what are you saying?14:24 - Did you watch the Carolina vs Philly game last night? Was there any hockey actually played? All we say was the tornado of fists that flew all game long.After that, the Nuggets End of the Year Presser is at 11am today at Ball Arena. Ben Tenzer, Jon Wallace, Josh Kroenke, and David Adelman will all address the media. What do you want to hear from the Nuggets Brain Trust today?31:46 - Yesterday on PHD, Scott Hastings disagreed with one of Brett's Nuggets takes. Today, Brett offered up his rebuttal.
Transcribe →5-07-26 - Biggest Avs concern right now?/Draymond Green vs Charles Barkley/Outkast rules, Rockies suck
3w ago00:42:24Tap to summarize0:00 - STRAW POLL: What's your biggest concern with the Avs right now. And you can't say health/injuries. That's a given. Aside from that. And yes, you have to pick a concern. That's how the game works.15:13 - Draymond Green tried to roast Charles Barkley on Inside the NBA last night, and the joke fell flat. You're not Shaq, Draymond. You can't make those same jokes. Draymond might be the least self aware athlete in the sporting world right now.32:09 - Outkast rules. That's all. (for context, I bumped back from commercial with "ATLiens")After that, you know what's the opposite of Outkast? The Rockies. They suck again. They've lost 6-straight, and they're on the verge of getting swept by the Mets. The lowly Mets. Today, they need to steal 1 win and get off the schneid.
Transcribe →5-06-26 - Avs Win Game 2 vs Wild/Moser's exchange with an old lady/Hate-watching OKC-Lakers, Avs improvements
3w ago00:42:51Tap to summarize0:00 - The Avs ONLY scored 5 goals last night?? Wow, what a snoozefest. The Avalanche won Game 2 vs the Wild last night, and they'll take a 2-0 series lead back to Minnesota. That was AWESOME. That Avalanche team looks legit. They genuinely haven't looked this good since 2022.15:53 - Moser drew the short straw last night. So Altitude TV stuck him outside in the snow to do live hits in front of Ball Arena. A sweet old lady walked by him, and Moser chose and interesting phrase to say to her.32:28 - In addition to the Avs game, Brett hate-watched Lakers vs Thunder Game 1. Brett's not rooting for the Lakers because he's an American, dammit. But, OKC can't just roll through this series willy-nilly, man. Even without Luka, the Lakers can't just roll over and die, man!After that, what adjustments did the Avs make between Games 1 and 2?
