Then, it’s 10 rapid-fire, bizarre, and somehow thought-provoking questions from a guy named Rob — covering everything from Cade Cunningham to whether boats are just floating sex dungeons (yes, really).

Finally, we head to the ice where the Bruins try to explain away another disappointing season. Exit interviews, front office smoke screens, bad drafting flashbacks, and why Bruins fans are paying more and getting less. It’s a fiery finish you won’t want to miss.

Show Segments & Notes:

🏀 Celtics Go Up 2-0 (Without Tatum)

Final Score: Celtics 109 – Magic 100
Jaylen Brown: 36 pts, 10 reb, 5 ast – Absolute monster game
Porzingis: 20 pts, 10 reb, 5 stitches (yes, real blood – PLAY CLIP: Mazzulla loves blood)
Derrick White: 17 pts, 6 reb, 5 ast
Pritchard: 14 pts off the bench
Magic Highlights:
Banchero: 32 pts, 9 reb, 7 ast
Wagner: 25 pts, 4 reb, 4 ast
Team Stats:
3PT%: Celtics 32.4% | Magic 24%
FTs: Celtics 25/33 | Magic 15/24
Rebounds: Celtics 46 | Magic 34
Celtics brought physicality. Magic were reckless. Caldwell-Pope’s cheap shot on Horford was dirty.
Jaylen went into 1-on-1 beast mode… but that’s not how you win a title. You need Tatum.

🤕 Tatum Injury Concerns

Bruised wrist (not ideal when it’s your shooting wrist)
Ended 145-game playoff streak
Was this a “play it safe” decision or something more?
Should he rest again if they’re up 2-0?
PLAY CLIP: Mazzulla on Tatum injury

❓10 Questions from a Guy Named Rob

How good is Cade Cunningham, really?
Are great RBs a necessity or a luxury?
What are the 3 best teams to get drafted by in the NFL?
And the 3 worst?
Could the 3 of us beat 1 NBA player in a 1-on-3?
Will Payton Pritchard be on the Celtics next year?
Will Shedeur Sanders succeed in the right situation?
Should wrestling be on ESPN?
Are boats just glorified floating sex dungeons?
Is the NFL Draft traveling to cities cool or meh?

🏒 Bruins Exit Interviews

Bruins finish 33-39, worst in the Atlantic
Front office clown show: Charlie Jacobs, Cam Neely, Don Sweeney
PLAY CLIP: Sweeney on Coaching – scapegoating much?
PLAY CLIP: Jacobs on “standards” – or just playoff revenue?
PLAY CLIP: Ticket Prices – average ticket now $174.56… Thanks Obama
Bruins worth $2.7B – they paid $10M. 2024: $268M revenue, $69M profit.
Draft failures go back to 2015 – still haunting this team
58 draft picks from 2015–2024 → only 11 NHL players
Highlights: McAvoy, Swayman, Carlo… and a lot of whiffs
The smoke shield is up. Panic mode ON. Expect Bruins to be aggressive in free agency & trades this offseason.

The Celtics are Front Running P*ssies 31:05

15 hours ago31:05

31:05

The Celtics are finding new and exciting ways to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, and the Simple Minds are here to yell about it. Dr. Big Mac, Rich, and Chief Bobby dive into Boston’s historic back-to-back choke jobs against the Knicks, question the sanity of the coaching staff, and try to make sense of Tatum’s disappearing act. Also, Headlines with the Obvious One returns to bring you the news you already knew — but louder. 📝 Show Notes: 🟢 Segment 1: Celtics Choke Game 1: Celtics 105 – Knicks 108 Blew a 20-point lead Launched 60 threes… missed 45 (🎯 NBA record for futility) Tatum led the team in settling Jaylen Brown: “We need to get to the rim”… then didn’t shoot Porzingis reportedly soiled himself (figuratively… we think) Coach Mazzulla still thinks it’s working Game 2: Celtics 90 – Knicks 91 Another 20-point blown lead. Yes, again. Also an NBA record Shot 25% from deep (30 misses on 40 attempts) Only 17 assists, 16 turnovers Won most categories—then shot themselves in the foot… repeatedly Tatum: 13 points, again no final shot Team stuck in 2022 mode Coaching Crisis: No adjustments, no sub strategy, no play-calling. No pulse. Is this really the last ride for this group? Are the Celtics dumb enough to think blowing two 20-point leads means they’re playing well ? 🟠 Segment 2: Headlines with the Obvious One The most obvious news, made obvious-er by the Obvious One. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll say “yeah no duh.” Listen to this full episode on: Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/4JOz2aBEi3yQt2QEjbSqGV?si=e75a42c1a56c41f2&nd=1&dlsi=d0fc5e509b3f40a3 iTunes https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-simple-minds-sports-show/id1518138259 Follow us on: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@simplemindssports2919 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/simple-minds-sports-show-412335205/ Facebook: facebook.com/simplemindssports.

Totem Poles, Tatum Fire, and Belichick’s Breakdown 31:55

8 days ago31:55

31:55

The fellas are back and hotter than a $2 pistol! On this episode of the Simple Minds Sports Show, Chief Bobby takes us Up and Down the Totem Pole, giving props to the Cavs' historic beatdown and roasting the Browns’ draft-day dumpster fire. From Abdul Carter's jersey drama to the Rockies playing like a high school JV team, ain't nobody safe! Then, it’s Celtics time. The Green send the Magic straight back to Disney World with a beatdown for the ages. Tatum channels his inner Bird, Brown still looks iffy, and Coach Mazzula finally stops chuckin' threes like it's a YMCA open gym. We break down the stats, the vibes, and the soft whining of Jamahl Mosely. To wrap it up, the boys take a trip around the NBA playoffs: Giannis chokes again, the Knicks are sad, Warriors hang on by a thread, and Belichick… Lord help him, someone get that man a conservatorship. 📋 Show Notes: ⬆️⬇️ Up and Down the Totem Pole with Chief Bobby ⬆️ Cavs – 4-0 sweep of the Heat, 122-point series margin record. Yowza. ⬇️ Browns – Classic Browns. Passed on elite talent, drafted Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders late. Woof times two. ⬇️ Abdul Carter – Rookie arrogance at full blast. Wants a retired NFL legend’s number. Chief says: “This guy’s an asshole.” ⬇️ Rockies – 4 total wins. Could lose to a damn Pop Warner team. ⬆️ Juvenile Behavior – Prank draft calls? Now that’s the spirit. ⬇️ Bill Belichick – It’s gone from awkward to downright sad. Elder abuse incoming. 🏀 Celtics Send the Magic Home Final: Celtics 120 – Magic 89 Series win: Celtics 4-1 Tatum: 35 pts / 8 reb / 10 ast Third straight 30-point playoff game — Only Larry Legend has done that. Brown: 23 pts / 6 reb / 3 ast – Something’s off... Magic: Banchero: 19-9-6 but fouled out early. Wagner: 25-4-4 – But not enough. Key Takeaways: Magic = Hacks. Jamahl Mosely won the whine contest. Tatum's awake – Can he stay that way? Mazzula finally adjusted: Only 24 3PTAs in Game 5. Celtics dominated the paint and hit 21/24 FTs. Tatum: 3 straight games perfect from the line. Problem with the refs? Eh, maybe. But Magic were outclassed. 🏀 NBA Playoffs Roundup Bucks Collapse – Blow 10-point lead, Haliburton dagger. Giannis: “Simple Minds” material confirmed. Knicks Implode – Sad trombone. Warriors Still Kickin’ – Old but stubborn. Heat Embarrassed – Cavs ended them fast. Lakers Eliminated – JJ hates subs, Lakers hate winning. Got takes hotter than Tatum’s jumper? Hit that follow button and yell at us on socials @SimpleMindsSports!

Dong Peeks & Horse Dives – This or That; Simplest Minds of the Week 19:10

8 days ago19:10

19:10

Grab your helmet and hang on to your britches, ‘cause this episode of the Simple Minds Sports Show is more chaotic than a possum in a moonshine distillery. Chief Bobby kicks things off with another dangerously stupid round of This or That —featuring choices no sane man should ever have to make. Would you rather start beef with a biker gang or... well, you'll just have to listen. Then it’s time for the Simplest Minds of the Week , where we salute some world-class dumbasses—from Jokic's horse-head heist to some twins Down Under that made us question evolution. Oh, and we also witnessed a horse dive off a platform like it’s trying out for SeaWorld. If you like your sports talk like your meatloaf—unfiltered, undercooked, and slightly offensive—this episode is for you. Let’s get dumb. 📝 Show Notes: 🧠 THIS OR THAT WITH CHIEF BOBBY Chief Bobby asks the questions no one should have to answer: Fresh tomatoes 🍅 or fresh bread 🍞 Never wash your hands again 🙌 or never wash your hair again 💇‍♂️ Peek at a dong at the urinal 🍆 or creep on a mystery pooper in the stall 🚽 Pizza cut party-style (squares) 🍕 or good ol' fashioned slices 🔪 Start beef with a biker gang 🏍️ or ram your hog into your boss’s wife 🐷💥 Get picked up for work by a school bus 🚌 or need a chaperone on all evening outings 🕵️‍♂️ Ice cream solo 🍨 or with sprinkles 🌈 Sandwich with the meat as the “bread” 🥪 or condiments lathered on the outside 🤢 💩 SIMPLEST MINDS OF THE WEEK The Dumbass Hall of Fame inductees for this week: Face Off – The fellas debate the dumbest of the dumb. Jokic Horse Head – See for yourself Horse Diving Clip – Yes, it's a real thing. Watch here Aussie Twins – Straight outta Darwin Got a stupid question or a dumber video?

The Greatest Draft in the History of the World 42:16

8 days ago42:16

42:16

The fellas are back and dumber than ever — but for once, it looks like the Patriots aren’t . Dr. Big Mac, Rich, and Chief Bobby break down what may just be the smartest draft class in New England Patriots history, led by new leadership and one giant barn door of a man, OT Will Campbell. From the smart picks (yes, even the kicker) to a few head-scratchers (a running back in Round 2?!), the crew dives deep into the Pats' 2025 NFL Draft. Then it’s time to hand the mic to our Southern-fried savant for HEADLINES WITH THE OBVIOUS ONE , where we try to decipher the week in Boston sports through the ramblings of a man who thinks logic is a type of barbecue sauce. Whether you're a diehard Patriots fan or just here for the unhinged ramblings of The Obvious One, this episode's got enough hot takes and heartburn to make Bill Belichick break a smile. Maybe. 📝 Show Notes: 🎯 Segment: The Greatest Draft in the History of the World Full Patriots Draft Breakdown → Draft Recap on Patriots.com Key Picks: Round 1, Pick 4 – OT Will Campbell Round 2, Pick 38 – RB TreVeyon Henderson Round 3, Pick 69 – WR Kyle Williams Round 3, Pick 95 – C Jared Wilson Round 4, Picks 106 & 137 – SAF Craig Woodson , DT Joshua Farmer Round 5 to 7 – EDGE Bradyn Swinson , K Andres Borregales , OT Marcus Bryant , LS Julian Ashby , DB Kobee Minor 🔥 Favorite Picks: 106–146 range. Solid depth and upside. 😬 Least Favorite: RB in Round 2 raised eyebrows. 🎤 Audio Clip: Ryan Cowden talks draft process & leadership. 🗣️ Eliot Wolf praises organizational vision and teamwork. 📉 Draft Notes & Oddities Sanders drops to Round 5, picked by Browns Giants trade back into Round 1 for “Jaxton Fart” Abdul Carter gets denied by Lawrence Taylor for jersey number Saints pass on Sanders for 26-year-old Tyler Shough (yikes) Steelers wait till pick 185 for Campbell... oops? 🧠 Segment: HEADLINES with the OBVIOUS ONE Readin' the news like a possum reads a gas bill. This week: Patriots nailed the draft harder than a rusty nail on a back porch. Red Sox blow a 6-run lead like your drunk uncle ruins Thanksgiving. Celtics battle through the playoffs with grit and some unrequested oversharing from the Obvious One. Random facts, gibberish metaphors, and fried cocks.

The fellas are back with another chaotic ride through sports, nonsense, and the wonderfully weird! This week, Chief Bobby puts the crew through a wild round of "This or That" , asking the hard-hitting questions like: Would you rather have a crappy car or a trashy yard? Cream cheese or sour cream? And the most mind-bending dilemma yet— tush push or toss a little person over the line? 👀 Then it's time to crown the Simplest Minds of the Week , featuring: A wholesome peace sign tongue-out girl (classic). Anthony Edwards, who’s out here racking up millions and baby mamas faster than he racks up fines.

Celtics Dominate Without Tatum, Bruins Spin the Exit Wheel & Rob Asks 10 Ridiculous Questions 50:41

15 days ago50:41

50:41

The Celtics take a commanding 2-0 series lead without Jayson Tatum, but injury concerns linger after a gritty Game 2 win. Dr. Big Mac, Rich, and Chief Bobby break down the win, Jaylen Brown’s takeover performance, and the physicality brought on by a hack-happy Magic squad. Then, it’s 10 rapid-fire, bizarre, and somehow thought-provoking questions from a guy named Rob — covering everything from Cade Cunningham to whether boats are just floating sex dungeons (yes, really). Finally, we head to the ice where the Bruins try to explain away another disappointing season. Exit interviews, front office smoke screens, bad drafting flashbacks, and why Bruins fans are paying more and getting less. It’s a fiery finish you won’t want to miss. Show Segments & Notes: 🏀 Celtics Go Up 2-0 (Without Tatum) Final Score: Celtics 109 – Magic 100 Jaylen Brown: 36 pts, 10 reb, 5 ast – Absolute monster game Porzingis: 20 pts, 10 reb, 5 stitches (yes, real blood – PLAY CLIP: Mazzulla loves blood ) Derrick White: 17 pts, 6 reb, 5 ast Pritchard: 14 pts off the bench Magic Highlights: Banchero: 32 pts, 9 reb, 7 ast Wagner: 25 pts, 4 reb, 4 ast Team Stats: 3PT%: Celtics 32.4% | Magic 24% FTs: Celtics 25/33 | Magic 15/24 Rebounds: Celtics 46 | Magic 34 Celtics brought physicality.

The boys are back with another unfiltered, unhinged, and undeniably Boston take on all things NFL Draft and beyond. Dr. Big Mac, Rich, and Chief Bobby dive headfirst into Patriots Draft Watch, debate whether Campbell at 4 is a reach or a revelation, and unpack trade rumors hotter than your aunt’s buffalo chicken dip. Then it’s time for Headlines with The OBVIOUS ONE — coming to you live from a couch that may be eligible for disability. Celtics, Sox, and Bruins all get the roast they deserve, plus Big Mac drops a Deep Thought that'll have you wondering if he’s talking about sports or his last failed Tinder date. This one’s got everything: bad takes, worse jokes, and just enough real analysis to make your dad say, “These guys kinda know what they’re talkin’ about.” Let’s get weird. 🏈 NFL Draft Watch Patriots open for trade at #4 — not sold on Campbell? PLAY CLIP: “Elliot Wolf is a rat” Chargers embarrassed us last year in the Ladd McConkey deal. Don’t let history repeat itself. Campbell is solid even if he shifts to guard. Double down on O-line? Let’s build the wall. Ideal line: Campbell, pick #38, Bradbury, Onwenu, Moses Stay AWAY from Membou. Attitude stinks. OL Prospects to Consider: Josh Simmons (OSU), Josh Conerly (OR), Aireontae Ersery (MN) 💸 Free Agency & Trade Buzz Tyler Lockett to Titans: 1 yr / $4–6M — get another vet WR now! Targets: Amari Cooper? Keenan Allen? Patriots still need a free safety — Justin Simmons is out there. Call him! Trade Rumors Heating Up: Jeanty interest is real. Teams to watch: Jags, Raiders, Bears, Broncos Breer says if someone trades up, it’s for Jeanty. Not QB. Not Hunter. Not Carter. 📰 HEADLINES WITH THE OBVIOUS ONE Live from the pre-diabetic couch of wisdom, it's time for Boston sports the way only we can do it: 🏀 Celtics Win Game 2 Jaylen Brown drops 36 while OBVIOUS ONE drops tots down his cleavage. Tatum out with a sore wrist — like most of OBVIOUS ONE’s high school experience. Also: He congratulated himself for inventing math. (Spoiler: he didn’t.) ⚾️ Red Sox Lose Again New green uniforms, same stink. OBVIOUS ONE watched the whole game while eating a floor-calzone and yelling about Megan Rapinoe. Bonus: accidentally subscribed to Donna on OnlyFans, who steps on pies. Worth it? 🏒 Bruins Out Lindholm and McAvoy are toast. OBVIOUS ONE tried to learn hockey strategy but got distracted by the Zamboni. Thought it was a Transformer. Tried to talk to it. 💭 BIG MAC’S DEEP THOUGHT OF THE WEEK: “Boston sports are like me during sex — slow start, brief hope, and then an unexpected nap. Sometimes there is crying.” 🔔 Don’t miss next week: Dr. Big Mac deep-throats a cannoli while explaining the NFL Draft and draws playoff brackets using macaroni art and soft farts.

From the miraculous Joe Milton trade to the Patriots’ Over/Under set at 8.5 wins, we analyze the latest moves and what it means for the season ahead. Plus, we get into the biggest question of all: Is Eliot Wolf a Kraft plant or just a holdover? Next, we shift gears to the NFL Draft. With the No. 4 pick, who will the Patriots take? Is Hunter destined for the Giants at No. 3? What about Mason Graham, Ashton Jeanty, or Tyler Warren later in the draft? And most importantly, who’s actually making the call in Foxborough?

The Red Sox are locking them up! This week, Dr. Big Mac, Rich, and Chief Bobby break down Boston’s latest strategy of securing their young talent early. Is it a genius move to save money long-term, or a disaster waiting to happen? Plus, we analyze the Red Sox’s rough start to the season—Devers struggling, Crochet dealing, and the offense looking shaky. We also dive into the latest from the NFL Owners Meeting, debate the Patriots Hall of Fame candidates, and take some wild guesses about what’s coming next with the BOTPOD. And of course, we wrap things up with our favorite segment—Simplest Minds of the Week. Buckle up. It’s another wild ride with the Simple Minds Sports Show! Show Notes: Intro: Red Sox Are Locking 'Em Up Rich: Your favorite Red Sox are all going to be let go Ray: TBD Bobby: TBD Show Rundown: Red Sox Strategy for the Future Brayan Bello (March 2024): 6-year, $55M deal, free agent at 30. Ceddanne Rafaela (April 2024): 8-year, $50M deal, free agent at 30. Garrett Crochet (March 2025): 6-year, $170M deal, free agent at 31. Kristian Campbell (April 2025): 8-year, $60M deal, free agent at 30. Is locking up young talent early the right strategy? Avoid big free agent spending later. Lower overall cost for key players. Risks: Players underperform, get disgruntled, or leave when they peak. Red Sox Start to the Season Record: 2-4 (depending on today’s game), last in AL. Devers struggling : .087 BA, 2-23, 2 RBI, 15 Ks to start the season. Garrett Crochet dominates Game 2 : 8 IP, 4 H, 0 ER, 1 BB, 8 K. Middle of the lineup struggling : Devers: .087 BA Bregman: .231 BA Casas: .095 BA Story: .263 BA Bright spots: Kristian Campbell looking solid as the rookie cornerstone. Wilyer Abreu is on fire.
