Neal McCready (RebelGrove.com) and Jay G. Tate (AuburnSports.com) once again sit down to discuss a variety of topics including:

• Neal reviews his recent trip to Wrigley Field. S-S-SPORTS TALK.

• Jay got trashed at Epcot, met a couple from Seattle who were doing a different version of around-the-world.

• It's that time of year — for beat-writer shindigs. Jay likes them, Neal hates them.

• Jay confronts Neal over what he sees as a "transactional" approach to friendships and less formal relationships.

• Jay discusses an old song that he's rediscovered and then goes on a rant about ignoring imperfections.

• Neal talks about how parents deal with their kids dating these days.

• Neal had an interesting interaction at the gym recently.

• Is Jay concerned about Neal's eating and exercise regimens?

• Jay kinda/sorta had the hots for a nun-to-be one time.

• Neal says his pool has been evolutionized by a ... basketball goal?

• Tommy Tuberville almost certainly will be a US senator before too long.
