We welcomed Barry Grant Jr. into our podcast to do a proper season kick off for the NFL. Barry for any of you that are not familiar he runs the All Even Podcast and the Gryd Network.

In Hungary the F1's Max Verstappen won his seventh race in a row and a record setting 12th in a row for the team! We did a review of the UFC London card and previewed UFC 291.
Lionel Messi made his debut and won the match with a goal in the 94th minute! Kylian Mbappe has been offered an incredible 776 million one year deal by Al Hilal the Saudia Arabian football club. They would also have to pay 332 million to PSG for the transfer fee! We discussed these incredible amounts of money offered to these athletes and Christiano Ronaldo trumping them all off the pitch with endorsement money!
The massive superfight between Errol Spence and Terence Crawford is almost upon us. We had a great discussion about the much anticipated battle that many thought would never take place! We are very excited about this war!
Brian Harman won the Open Championship by six shots in tough conditions for his first major win of his career. It lacked the drama that many fans like so it had its critics but was still a fun tournament to watch and witness.
The F1 had their 11th race of the season in Hungary and it was another dominating win by Max Verstappen his 7th in a row! The Red Bull team set and F1 record by winning their 12th race in a row as a team. This is a run away campaign and there doesn't seem to be any hope for the other teams this season.

We covered a ton of events from the weekend. We started with Mission Impossible review and then a discussion about the Actors strike! Our fun conversation turned to tennis, golf, NBA, NFL, MLS and Indy racing. We finished by reviewing UFC Vegas 77 and Previewing UFC Fight Night 225!
Jason Cameron went to the new Mission Impossible movie over the weekend and after seeing it gave it a 8 out of 10 for a review! That segued our convo into the Actors joining the picket lines and striking putting the film industry at a stand still in North America. We at the Network are greatly affected by this and fingers crossed hope they can come to an agreement very soon.
The boys discussed the amazing underdog victory by Carlos Alcaraz dethroning the Novak Djokovic in the Men's singles final of Wimbledon. After dropping the first set 6 to 1 he was able to outlast the four time reigning champ Joker! Novak had almost become unbeatable so this was an incredible feat for the 20 year old Spaniard!
We stayed across the pond to talk briefly about Rory McIlroy who disappointed the home town Scottish crowd by birdieing the final two holes to beat Scotland's own Robert McIntyre by one shot. This bodes well for Rory heading into the Open Championship at Royal Liverpool this week. McIlroy lifted the Claret Jug the last time the Open was held on this course.
Speaking of golf the American Century Championship had a few viral moments over the weekend. On Saturday Steph Curry of the Golden State Warriors got a hole in one and ended up with the lead heading into Sunday. He closed out the victory with a walk off eagle putt on the 18th hole and celebrated with a huge running hug with his wife.
Turning to basketball we talked about the Phoenix Suns roster construction. They have huge contracts signed with KD, Book, Beal and Ayton and have 11 players on minimum contracts. Also with basketball we mentioned Lebron James decision to change his number back to 23 to honor Bill Russell and remove #6 from rotation after the league retired that number after Bill's passing.
The big DeAndre Hopkins saga looks to be close to ending as the Tennessee Titans have agreed in principle to a two year deal to bring him into the fold.
Lionel Messi one of the greatest and highest paid athletes of all time was finally introduced to the local fans of inter Miami of MLS. The crazy thing was it went under the radar in North America amazingly enough.
We talked about the huge announcement of Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou agreeing to a boxing match to take place in Saudi Arabia on October 28th. This is for the baddest man on the planet title!
We completed this episode with a review of UFC Vegas 77. It was a terrible card and so it was fairly brief. We previewed the UFC Fight Night 225 that takes place at the O2 Arena in London early on Saturday July 22nd.

We just witnessed one of if not the best UFC cards in history! We are getting the podcast in before the MLB All Star Home Run Derby takes place in Seattle. NBA Summer League and mid season tournament details.
The UFC 290 card was stacked and it delivered on it's promise! The fight of the night was the title fight between Flyweight Champion Brandon Moreno and challenger Alexandre Pantoja It was an amazing fight that had everyone out of their seats cheering on the two warriors! Moreno broke his hand in the first round and lasted the entire five rounds in defeat. The main event had Alexander "The Great" Volkanovski defending his belt against Yair Rodriguez. Volk proved to the world that he is still by far the best in the Featherweight division. He will have to have arm surgery and then he either fights Illia Topuria or a rematch with Lightweight champ Islam Makachev. Their were four fights that ended in less than 1 minute and that is a record for any UFC card. The most memorable one was Robbie Lawler in his retirement fight knocking out Niko Price in just 38 seconds!!
The All star festivities in MLB kicked off over the weekend and it looks like the Emerald City is fully embracing it! The Home run derby is always super popular and home town hero Julio Rodriguez is competing and will have the crowd behind him in hopes he can win the crown! Toronto Blue Jay fans will have Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to cheer on in the big swatters competition! The game takes place on Tuesday and it will be fun to see all the highlights from Seattle.
NBA summer league is in full swing and Victor Wembanyama is getting the most publicity. He had a tough first game and good second and an incident with Britney Spears. He has been told that he will not play anymore games this summer. Some of the other top draft picks have had varying amounts of success and injuries also. We finished the episode going over details of the newly created mid season NBA tournament.

This great and special podcast episode starts with a UFC Jacksonville, Florida card breakdown. We briefly discussed the PFL and their big card briefly and the big stories that emerged. The NHL and NBA just hit their off season but a lot of stories are emerging with a lot of big events.
Illia Topuria was the biggest winner on the Florida UFC card! He dominated in winning the main event and getting the fight of the night victory over Josh Emmett. His performance has elevated him into the top five in the Featherweight Division and lined him up to be a top contender for the belt. There were a lot of other great fights and stories that came out of this good card.
The PFL held their final regular season card in Atlanta to determine the playoff positions in the Welterweight and Lightweight Divisions. Canadian Olivier-Aubin Mercier won his main event fight with a knockout win over fellow Canadian Anthony Romero. The Co-Main event also ended in a knockout as Sadibou Sy won via spinning wheel kick over Shane Mitchell! This KO immediately went viral and was one of the most spectacular finishes in MMA history. There was a big controversy that we discussed as well!
On this episode we discuss a bunch of NBA stories like the draft that just happened and the 20th anniversary of the 2003 draft. The NBA is just about to embark on their free agency period. There are a lot of rumors and speculation on who will sign where and we are excited to see what happens.
We also talked about the NHL who are holding their awards night tonight, the draft Wednesday and the Free Agent Frenzy starting Saturday.
We ended up with an F1 story about Michael B Jordan, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney leading an investment group supporting the Alpine team. They are obviously hoping to have similar success as the Wrexham Football Club they took over recently. Expect a reality show to emerge soon!

We did the podcast on Juneteenth day, a very important holiday. We started with NBA stories like the big Chris Paul for Bradley Beal trade. We dug into the Draymond opt out and impending free agency, Lou Williams retirement announcement and Ja Morant's 25 game suspension. We broke down the UFC Vegas 75 card and previewed next week's card from Jacksonville!
The NBA world was rocked with this big trade between the Phoenix Suns and the Washington Wizards with guards Chris Paul and Bradley Beal switching teams. There was big news out of San Fran as Draymond Green opted out of his 27.5-million-dollar 1 year deal with Golden State to become a free agent. It will be interesting to see what kind of offers the 4-time champion gets! Lou Williams one of the best bench role players in NBA history announced his retirement from the NBA after a 17-year career. Finally with talk about the association we discussed the 25-game suspension handed down to Ja Morant for conduct detrimental to the league for posting himself waving a guy around.
We did a comprehensive break down of UFC Vegas 75 the featured an incredibly entertaining main event. Jared "Tha Killa Gorilla" Cannonier set a record for significant strikes landed on Marvin Vettori in an epic Middleweight battle at nearly 250 strikes. There were a lot of good performances from top to bottom on this card. Unfortunately, two fights were very poorly handled by the referees and one of them will be under investigation by the athletic commission. One ref is accused of severely screwing up a fight and being under the influence while doing so. The other referee had two huge errors in judgement on one fight and has been singled out for his mistakes. We previewed next weekends card that will take place in Jacksonville, Florida. The main event there is a great Featherweight battle between Josh Emmett and Ilia Topuria. We highlighted the top fights on the card and gave some predictions.
We finished looking ahead to the NBA Draft that takes place this Thursday in Brooklyn at the Barclays Center. We went over the consensus top ten lottery picks and the teams that are selecting them. We also showcased a few top Canadian prospects that are expected to be drafted or work out for teams over the summer.

nba #lameloball #Lebron #dametime #joker #UFCVegas70 #ufc285
A great discussion on one of the best NBA weekends ever!
Huge games, Dame Time keeps getting better, Nikola Jokic closer to a third straight MVP. What an incredible weekend in the regular season. The highest scoring regular season game in history Sacramento beat the LA Clippers 176 to 175. Damian Lillard scorches the Rockets for 71 Points on an incredible shooting display! Nikola Jokic gets his 99th Triple Double of his great career in a big win 40 points 17 rebounds and 10 assists beating the Clippers in overtime. There were two big injuries in the Association Lamelo Ball broke his ankle and Lebron James injure his foot and will miss several weeks.
The UFC Vegas 70 card was dealt a big blow as just hours out the main event was canceled as Nikita Krylov was deemed not healthy enough to fight. Ryan Spann was probably the most disappointed person on the evening but there was plenty of others including us that were very unhappy with the cancelation. The main event became Arnold All In Allen vs Andre Muniz and turned out to be a good win for Allen. There were three Canadians on the card and two were victorious. It was a pretty good card with 6 finishes and they all received a 50 K bonus.
We previewed the huge UFC 285 Card that highlights the return of the G.O.A.T. Jon Bones Jones and his attempt to get the Heavyweight Title. Valentina Shevchenko makes yet another title defense and this time it is against Alexa Grasso. It is a very stacked card that is a can't miss event!
We discussed the Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury fight from Saudi Arabia that was a pretty disappointing display of skill. The card was watched by a lot and the fighters made a ton of money.
We talked about some NFL and some of the top stories of the week. The story of Russell Wilson that just was released is quite surprising and shocking!

NBA #Allstars #ufcfightnight #Vegas #Familyday
We had a bit of a slow weekend and unfortunately our normal analyst on Mondays Jason Cameron is under the weather today. Our host Darren Campbell did a solo podcast and covered the world of sports from his perspective!
We had the NBA's 72nd All Star weekend from Salt Lake City Utah. There was a lot of good things to watch and discuss from all of the events and gamers. There were a couple of complaints but all in all it was a great weekend for the Association. The top winners were Jason Tatum the All Star game MVP, Mac McClung the Slam Dunk winner and Damien Lillard the 3 Point shootout MVP, etc, etc.
The UFC held Fight Night 219/Vegas 69 at the Apex in Las Vegas. The main event was changed late with an injury to Talia Santos but the fight was resurrected by Jessica Andrade. Erin Blanchfield went into this fight as the underdog and ranked #10 against Andrade ranked #3. Blanchfield took advantage of her opportunity and got a huge win by rear naked choke in the second round. She wants a title fight next against the winner of Valentina Shevchenko and Alexa Grasso which takes place in less than two weeks. The rest of the card had a lot of great moments and was a ton of fun to watch.
The XFL 3.0 had their opening weekend this past one and it was quite the success. The rule changes took center stage at the end of one of the games and fingers crossed the NFL might adopt sometime in the near future.
Red McCombs passed away at 95 on Sunday and he was quite an influential figure in the world of sports owning two different NBA teams and an NFL Franchise also. He owned the San Antonio Spurs on two different occasions and the Denver Nuggets as well. He was also a former owner of the Minnesota Vikings NFL team. He is survived by his three daughters, 8 grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren.

UFC #Bellator #Gamebred #nba #suoerbowl
A very quiet weekend in the world of sports that we discussed.
It was a boring sports weekend with All star week in the NFL and the NHL but who really cares about those games. The UFC had a fight card that was originally scheduled for Korea but was moved to Vegas because of an injury to the Korean Zombie. The card wasn't all that compelling and was even upstaged by Bellator and their inaugural card on CBS.
A very busy week ahead that we previewed.
The UFC 284 card is stacked with two title fights and a ton of great matchups.
The Super Bowl is just a few days away now. The Philadelphia Eagles are a slight favorite over the Kansas City Chiefs.
Lebron James is poised to become the NBA's all time leading scorer. King James will pass Kareem Abdul Jabbar this week. It was once thought to be an unreachable record but it will be passed this week in one of the Lakers home games.

The Kansas City Chiefs beat the upstart Jacksonville Jaguars 27 to 20 to advance to the AFC Conference Championship. Their opponent will be the Cincinnati Bengals who crushed the Buffalo Bills 27 to 10. The games should be great next Sunday as we previewed them.
The UFC held a card in Brazil for the first time in three years. The card was veery stacked with two belts on the line and tons of Brazilians throughout. Two new Champions were crowned and it was a blast to watch and break down.
The NBA is having rivalry week this week and we are very excited to see the matchups. There was a trade between the Lakers and the Wizards. Lebron was named the player of the week for a record 67th time. He is phenomenal at 38 years old and in his 20th season it boggles the mind that he continues to be this good at his advanced age.

worldcup #argentina #messi #mbappe #nfl #ufc #nba
We have reached the week of Christmas. This weekends wrap up included talking about the greatest game ever played.
The World Cup Final win by Argentina over France in a shootout(penalty kicks) 3.5 Billion people watched the game worldwide and the party in Buenos Aries was legendary. The game was epic with Lionel Messi finally hoisting the only cup missing from his resume. He cements his place as the G.O.A.T. and did it in dramatic fashion. Killian Mbappe from France almost pulled off the greatest single performance in history with a hat trick and a shootout goal to try and help France repeat as World Cup Champs.
Switching to Week 15 of the NFL there were games Saturday, Sunday and Monday to break down. On Saturday we witnessed the greatest comeback in history and on Sunday the worst play in league history. The Vikings came back from a 33-0 halftime score to beat the Indy Colts 39 to 36 in overtime. it was an incredible display of offense by Kirk Cousins(our Hero of the week)and his weaponry that second half. The dumbest, stupidest most boneheaded play in NFL history was committed by Jakobi Meyers(our zero of the week)! The Patriots receiver had the ball and with no time remaining on the clock in a tie game(Patriots Vs Raiders) he inexplicably decided to throw a pass across the field to his QB Mac Jones and ended up getting it picked off by defensive end Chandler Jones. Jones no relation straight armed Mac Jones to the turf and returned the ball for a game winning TD that could have knocked the Patriots out of the playoffs. It was outrageous and was the one of the dumbest sports moments of all time. The guys broke down the rest of the action and the playoff implications as they loom ever closer.
The UFC was holding its final card of 2022 at the Apex in Vegas. The main event was a middleweight battle between two top fighters of the weight class. Jared Cannonier was ranked #3 and he faced Sean Strickland ranked #7 and it turned into a 5 round strategic tactical battle with Jared getting his hand raised on a split decision. The fight of the night was Drew Dober getting a great TKO of Bobby Green in a highly entertaining bout that was widely anticipated. There were a lot of great fights on the card and it was fun to watch and break down. The UFC is on their Christmas break and won't have another card now until January 14th.
The NBA's two time MVP Nikola Jokic had another incredible night over the weekend with 40 points 27 rebounds and 10 assists for a historic triple double. There hasn't been a stat line like that since Wilt Chamberlain in 1968 . He has better numbers than those MVP years and could be the first to get three MVP's in a row since Larry Bird 83 to 86. Larry Legend is one of only 3 players have ever accomplished that feat with Bill Russell 60-63 and Wilt Chamberlain 65-68. Pretty elite company indeed. We discussed the latest foot injury to Anthony "Mr. Glass" Davis who is expected to miss a month with this latest setback. The lakers and Davis were rolling lately and looking pretty good but he just can never stay healthy and it deals a serious blow to their playoff hopes. This week is always great with the 5 big games featured on Christmas days and we can't wait for the big matchups.

nfl #ufc282 #boxing #nba
This was an action packed podcast episode and the time flew by.
The NFL continues to have exciting games to watch and breakdown. The Eagles continue to dominate and won big to improve to 12 and 1 on the season. The other team that is turning heads is the Detroit Lions who have now won 5 of their last 6!
The UFC had it's final PPV of the year in Vegas for UFC 282. There was a lot of controversy with poor judging results wrecking a good stacked card. The main event had the Light Heavyweight strap on the line but it wasn't handed out to anyone because it ended in a terrible draw. UFC President Dana White called the main event terrible and one of our guys agreed but just one. The Co-main event was possibly worse as the judging seemed wrong as most people watching had Jared Gordon winning once it went to the scorecards. Unfortunately for Gordon and most of the fans Paddy Pimblett was declared the victor in a split decision that was a robbery. The rest of the card had great fights and fun instances to analyze and discuss.
There were some boxing fights over the weekend that were discussed and broken down. Terrence "Bud" Crawford was victorious with a 6th round KO. Teofimo Lopez won a controversial split decision, Manny Pacquiao was also in action in an exhibition match against a Youtuber DK Yoo. Mills Lane the longtime referee passed away last week at 85 years old and he will be sorely missed. In the association we mentioned the Players of the week,

This was a fun podcast episode with a guy living a fun fulfilled life. Trevor Jones was an athlete and it led to a friend suggesting he go to an audition for an NBA team. Trevor was perfect for the role they were looking to fill and he got the part and doors have been opening ever since. Clever Trevor became Trevor "Grizz" Jones the Vancouver Grizzlies mascot and he unleashed his immense athleticism and basketball skill on the world! He spent years as part of the incredible entertainment package the NBA delivers and was a highlight nightly on a huge stage! He also represented the NBA in the first ever NBA regular season game outside North America in Tokyo, Japan. Another highlight was winning the mascot dunk competition at the All Star game in Cleveland, Ohio and being at the spectacle that is All Star weekend!
His NBA exposure led to opportunities in the film industry and he nailed the auditions again and a new career was spawned. He started as a stunt double in Police Academy the TV series and soon after became the lead actor in a kids movie called Big and Hairy. It is great to hear about how one door closed and another door opened to a life long career that has provided him a great life and taken him around the world.
Trevor is still a great athlete and has a deep love for many sports and we got into a great conversation about many different teams he loves and supports. We discussed the Olympics and the the way it was embraced here. We were both watching the Canadian national soccer team at the World Cup and we talked about the fun it was to watch and support them. The conversation flowed into the Vancouver Canucks playoff run in 2011 and how the local people again embraced the team and got behind them with huge support. Also his Philadelphia Eagles have the best record in the NFL currently and it brings up the high point for their fans winning the Super Bowl in 2018 was also fun to reminisce about with a true fan!
We could have talked sports for days and we probably will going forward!
This podcast was a gem and so is Trevor we are certain you will appreciate the time he gave us to shed some light into his life.

We had a great night breaking down week 12 of the NFL. Three games on Thanksgiving and a full slate of games on Sunday had a lot of talking points.
Week 6 of the NBA is in the rear view and we discussed briefly.
The UFC touches down in Orlando Florida this weekend with the main event featuring two top strikers in the Welterweight Division. The matchup between Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson takes on Kevin "Trailblazer" Holland in a great anticipated stand up war. There are a lot of compelling matchups on the card. The Co-main is another Welterweight matchup that should provide fireworks as former champ Rafael dos Anjos faces Bryan Barbarena. Enjoy the fights!

The World Cup of Soccer started this weekend amid a lot of controversy and issues but once the games start coming at us everyday the fun should overcome! The American team had their first game today as they finished in a 1-1 draw with Wales. The Canadian team gets underway with a game against Belgium on Wednesday.
This is the final day of week 11 in the NFL and there are a lot of fun games to break down. The Cowboys flexed their muscle in a blowout win over Minnesota. The Chiefs also showed their strength with a big win over the Chargers. There were a lot of great performances and we had fun dissecting them all. We have reached Thanksgiving week and the NFL showcase games are happening this Thursday!
The UFC had a dud of a card with not one ranked fighter on the entire slate after the main event was postponed. Derrick Lewis had to withdraw because of medical reasons and that thrust the co-main event to become it's main event. There were a few good moments on this card but they were few and far between.
In the Association The Golden State Warriors finally won a road game and set another record in the process. Klay Thompson was the star of the game and Steph Curry and Andrew Wiggins also put forth great shooting nights to contribute to the victory. The trio set the NBA mark with 23 3 pointers made between them setting a new record. Kyrie Irving finally returned from his suspension but there was still controversy swirling around the team. Anthony Davis had great efforts over the weekend and led the Lakers to two big wins.

UFC #MSG #UFC281 #NFL #week10 #NBA
After watching the UFC live together we decide to all do a podcast together. Stephane Cappelini and Jason Cameron provide the expertise breaking down UFC 281. It probably was the card of the year and provided an incredible night of entertainment. Two title fights were on the card and the Lightweight battle between Dustin Poirier and Michael Chandler was the fight of the night and the most anticipated one of them all.
UFC announcer Bruce Buffer got to yell "AND NEW" as both champions lost their belts and new champions donned the championship belts. Alex Periera shocked the MMA world as he knocked out longtime champion Israel Adesanya in the 5th round as he was close to losing on the judges scorecards if it went the distance.
In the co main event Zhang Weili got her Strawweight belt back easily dispatching with the Champ Carla Esparza in a mismatch. Carla had won the belt for the 2nd time at UFC 274 in May of this year against Rose Namajunas.
We had a blast watching the UFC all together and it was fun doing this episode with all three of us.
Jason and I continued the conversation and broke down week 10 of the NFL and especially the Game of the year with the Buffalo Bills getting beat in overtime by the Minnesota Vikings. This was a game that highlighted some plays and excitement that enforces the reason why this is the most popular team sport on the continent. Justin Jefferson had a battle with Stefon Diggs as to who could provide the better catch and overall game to help their team win. Jefferson had what many are calling the greatest catch of all time in an NFL game.
The game between Dallas and Green Bay turned out to be a great game that was also decided in overtime. It was really fun to break down another amazing week.
We briefly touched on week 4 of the NBA highlighting Joel Embiid, Steph Curry and the performances from the MVP front runners.

We had a great podcast with talking points starting in the NFL. Joe Mixon was the Hero(or SuperHero) of the week. with a 5 TD day. The Zero of the Week is Aaron Rodgers as Green Bay loses 5 in a row. Tom Brady passes 100,000 yards in passing. Week 9 of the NFL had a lot of great storylines to follow and discuss.
The UFC had a good card this past weekend but has blown up into a huge controversy with a betting integrity scandal. It seems like Darrick Minner had a pre-existing knee injury before he entered the Octagon for his scheduled fight. Somehow this injury news became known to bettors and the gambling community and led to huge amount of money being bet on this fight. This could change the sport for the better. The rest of the card was fun to breakdown and discuss.
The NBA has a ton of interesting storylines but the top story seems to be the suspension of Kyrie Irving and we have a lot to talk about on this subject

Olympian #councilor #medalist #Happy #healthy #fulfilledlife
Thanks for tuning in to watch and listen to Evan Dunfee a highly successful, inspiring world class athlete and aspiring politician.
This was a special podcast episode with the Canadian Olympian Evan Dunfee. Evan developed a passion for sport and in particular long distance race walking at the age of ten. He set a goal to become an Olympian at that young age and accomplished that years later. He then much to his surprise became one of the stories of the games because of his selfless act of sportsmanship. When Evan finished 4th and just out of the medals and then was awarded 3rd place after a review the country celebrated. That celebration was short lived as he was then subsequently stripped him of that medal and he decided to not appeal that decision. You have to watch and listen to his story around those events. Eventually Evan continued his athletic pursuit and has travelled the world and continued his goal of being the best in the world at something. He won races and was on the podium at others and then finally got a chance at redemption at the Olympics and was able to get onto the podium and celebrate a bronze medal! His story is inspirational and heartwarming because his passion and hard work have created a happy, healthy and fulfilled life so far!
Evan was born and raised in the city of Richmond, BC Canada and in training has walked over 50,000 KM(over 31,00 Miles) in this community. He gained a new perspective of this community when the pandemic hit and he had an opportunity to live stream the political meetings in Richmond. He got inspired to make a difference and decided to throw his hat in the ring and run or in his case walk for a seat as a city councilor. He is in the last week of his campaign and joined us to discuss this pursuit and speak about his athletic accomplishments!
Thanks Evan for your valuable time and energy we really appreciate it.
Thank you to all of our loyal viewers and listeners for watching and listening to this great episode,

Elias Theodoru was an MMA fighter, actor, stuntman, TV pitchman, cannabis advocate and more. He will be very missed after passing away yesterday from liver cancer at the young age of 34. We discussed Elias and dedicated this podcast episode to him and his lasting memory.
We went into a lot of detail in covering week 1 of the NFL. It ended tonight with a Seattle Seahawks huge upset win over Russell Wilson and the Denver Broncos on Monday Night Football. Russell spent his first 10 years of his career in the Emerald City and this was his much anticipated return. He was loudly booed and it made the Hawks faithful very happy to defeat their former QB. There were so many great games and moments and we are so happy the NFL is finally back!
UFC 279 was this weekend and was a crazy mixed up card that had more twists and turns than a snake with an itch. Many fighters missed weight and so the fights had to be shuffled and new matchups formed. The best part was that Nate Diaz went out with a victory and could be celebrated for a long and great career. He won via submission over another OG and long time great UFC fighter Tony Ferguson. It was a fun card to watch and even better to break down.

We have a great podcast for you as we go in depth discussing one of the best moments in UFC history.!
On Saturday we witnessed one of the greatest moments in the best sport on the planet. This was a real life "Rocky" script come alive as Leon "Rocky" Edwards shocked the world by winning the UFC Welterweight title with a last minute head kick KO of Kamara Usman. The consensus pound for pound champion Usman "The Nigerian Nightmare" was chasing history of his own by tying records of some of the greatest fighters in the history of the sport. Kamara was less than a minute away from claiming another victory and then the entire course of history was changed! This was one of the most incredible life changing few seconds where it was such a pleasure to witness live.
Our boys dabbled into discussing other sports with some of the top stories and they found some real great talking points.

This is a top quality podcast for the vault because we got to discuss the incredible life of Bill Russell as he passed away at the age of 88 this August long weekend.
The passing of Bill Russell started a wave of tributes and posts to the Hall of Fame legend. The basketball resume of the 11 time champion is epic and the amount of things he accomplished off the court might be even more impactful. They broke the mould when it came to him and they were never be another like him.
We covered UFC 277 like a blanket and had a fun conversation about all the most important fights and moments from the Dallas, Texas card. Two belts were on the line and both fights ended with a champion reclaiming their blet they had lost previously. Amanda Nunes was dominant in a big battle with champion Julianna Pena and seemed like the Lioness of old. In the Co-main Brandon Moreno KOed Kai-Kara France to regain the belt only it was the interim one this time. There were also a lot of great fights on the card and we broke them down in detail.
We are only three days away from the start of the preseason in the NFL. The Hall of Fame game from Canton, Ohio kicks off the year. the battle will pit the Jacksonville Jaguars versus the Las Vegas Raiders. The Desahaun Watson saga took another turn today as he was suspended 6 games pending appeal. Covid 19 could still impact this football season as news came down today that Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll and Arizona Cardinals QB Kyler Murray both tested positive. We hope that the impact will be minimal and everyone can stay healthy.

UFC #Englandfightnight #NBA #wrestling
We have officially entered the cat days of summer and it is hard to get motivated to get out into the high heat! Our great analyst Jason Cameron spent the entire weekend at home and stayed cool and away from the ever rising heat. Our host Darren Campbell was doing the same until Sunday and FOMO overtook him and he went to Summerville and Pro Wrestling to get some fun in.
The UFC returned to England after having the card of the year there just a few months ago. This fight card fell a bit flat and definitely didn't feel as exciting as the instant classic from March. The two stars of the show were again Paddy "The Baddy" Pimblett and Molly "Meatball" McCann and their popularity is skyrocketing. The other UK darling of last card was Tom Aspinall who faced Curtis "Razor " Blaydes in the main event this time. Unfortunately the fight only lasted 15 seconds as the big English heavyweight blew out his knee and will undergo surgery to repair a torn ligament. The two broke down this card in great detail and it was fun to watch and listen to.
The focus shifted to the NBA and the potential trade destinations for many of the leagues stars. Kevin Durant made a trade request on June 30th and is still a Brooklyn Net as of this podcast but the stories are continuing to come out as the front runners start to emerge.

The NBA free agency period is still open and has been interesting and lucrative for many. It was fun to discuss many of the biggest deals recently completed.

We have finally got a summer and people are now complaining of the heat! It has been highly anticipated and not welcome only a few days into a hot spell.
The UFC had a good fight night card that we broke down into a lot of detail. The main event was for a place in the top ten of the UFC's Lightweight division Mateusz Gamrot got a huge decision victory over Arman Tsarukyan in a very competitive and tightly contested battle. The leader in combat sports has entered into International fight week and we previewed some of the festivities.
The NBA has been through the 2022 draft and we discussed some of the picks. Kyrie Irving just announced that he will be signing his contract option with the Brooklyn Nets for $37 Million. There was a week with heavy speculation that he would jump to another team but these rumors have now been silenced with this latest news.

UFC #Fightnight #NBA #fathersday #Hustle
This podcast comes on the last day of Spring on the eve of Summer and just after Fathers Day so lets celebrate!
We started this episode with a breakdown of a great UFC card that was incredibly entertaining from the first fight to the last! A UFC record was tied with 9 Knockouts and the fight of the night was the main event. The Featherweight division was on display with two of the divisions best in a very tough battle. Calvin Kattar the #4 seed took on Josh Emmett the #7 seed and they went the full 25 minutes and it capped off one of the best cards ever! Do yourself a favor and watch this entire card and the breakdown here for a great night of entertainment!
The NBA Finals is over and the Golden State Warriors have ascended to the top of the mountain again and hoisted their fourth title in the last 8 years. Steph Curry was the leader and got his much awaited Finals MVP and put himself firmly entrenched in the top 10 players of all time conversation. It was fun to watch and to breakdown but it will be hard to keep together. We went over the salary structure and luxury tax they will have to pay out and it looks to be between $400 and $500 Million dollars to take another run with this group intact.
The NBA Draft takes place the Thursday and will be fun to see the lives changed and the fortunes of the 30 teams. The draft gives renewed hope for all the teams that want to raise the Larry O'Brien trophy like the Warriors just celebrated today with a parade through the streets of San Francisco!

We finally have a NBA Final to look forward to between the Golden State Warriors and the Boston Celtics. The playoffs have been fairly disappointing this year with most games becoming blowouts, We all hope that this final is a tightly contested and lengthy matchup.
We talked about the unfortunate death of Arizona Cardinals cornerback Jeff Gladney who died in a car crash today. In other NFL news Antonio Brown announced that he would not be playing in this upcoming NFL season and we asked Jason his opinion on the matter.
We discussed another heroic act by UFC fighter Kevin" Trailblazer: Holland who was witness to a truck that had crashed and flipped over and he pulled the driver to safety. Holland has been involved in a few incidents this past year as he apprehended a car thief in one and took down an active shooter in a restaurant in the other. We previewed the upcoming UFC fight night card from Vegas this Saturday. The main event was a heavyweight battle between Alexander Volkov vs Jairzinho Rozenstruik and it should be a great standup striking war!
Also in combat sports we discussed some boxing and specifically the fight between Gervonta:"Tank" Davis who KO'ed Rolando Romero on Saturday in spectacular fashion. This sets up the possibility of a Ryan Garcia battle that both seem to be clamoring for.

NBA #Conferencefinals #UFC #Boxing
We had a great discussion about the NBA, UFC and boxing in this episode.
They are down to the final four in the NBA as the Conference finals are now set.
The East will be a defensive struggle between the top seeded Miami Heat hosting the second seeded Boston Celtics. In the West the #3 seeded Golden State Warriors play host to the #4 seeded Dallas Mavericks to start this round. We discussed how these teams were able to get here and broke down the semi finals. We also looked ahead and Jason gave some great insight into these matchups. He predicts the Heat in 7 and the Warriors in six games to go to the Finals.
The UFC Vegas 54 card was headlined by former light Heavyweight Champ Jan Blachowicz vs Aleksandar Rakic and was a great and tight battle. The scrap was unfortunately stopped when Rakic blew out his ACL ligament in his right knee and couldn't continue. There were a lot of fun fights to breakdown and we had a good time doing it.
We also previewed next weeks card with Holly Holm vs Ketlen Viera as the main event.
We talked about the big Showtime boxing card that featured a big Light Middleweight bout to crown the undisputed champ and gain all four belts. Jermell Charlo was victorious in his rematch with Brain Castano after the draw between them in July of 2021. it was a great fight and it was almost as fun discussing it as watching it.

IR #Covid #NBA #UFC274 #Phoenix #Boxing
We both came into this podcast at less than 100% and sick and hurt. This was the first podcast in three weeks. It turned out to be pretty good podcast episode even though both participants have ailments that rendered them much less than 100%.
We started talking about the semi-finals in both NBA conferences as three of the series are tied at two games each. The third series between Golden State and Memphis was just getting underway as we were finishing the episode. Big comebacks from 2 games to nothing down by Philly tying their matchup with Miami. The Dallas Mavericks deadlocked their series at two with the top seeded Phoenix Suns. The Boston Celtics took a big win in game four of their battle with the Milwaukee Bucks to knot it up at two games apiece as we were recording this podcast.
Our conversation shifted to the UFC 274 and the good, bad and the ugly of this weekends card in Phoenix, Arizona. Jason wanted to get the ugly out of the way off the start. The co-main event was a terrible fight with no entertainment value to speak of. Rose Namajunas came in as the Champion of the Women's Strawweight division and was trying to avenge a defeat to Carla Esparza 8 years prior. It was an absolute no show by Rose and almost the same for Esparza who recaptured the belt after losing it 2,612 days before. The next longest days between title reigns was Frank Mir who went 1,234 days in between. It was ugly and not worth our time. Speaking of ugly the fight between two old guys in Ovince St Preux and Shogun Rua seemed to make you question if both guys still had enough to continue fighting in the UFC it was ugly. We discussed the good with big wins by Charles Olivera and Michael Chandler who both currently occupy the lightweight division. The bad was that even though Charles Olivera was the champ of the weight class and won he walked out of the cage without the belt because he missed weight and now the title is vacant. The other good and one of the highlights of the night is the announcement of Daniel Cormier getting a Hall of Fame spot and it led to tears and for once a speechless DC.
At the same time the UFC was holding their card the boxing world had their top pound for pound fighter on the planet moving up in weight and taking on the champ at Light Heavyweight. Canelo Alvarez came into this bout with a 57-1-2 record and was considered the best boxer in the world. Dmitri Bivol put his belts on the line and tried to preserve his undefeated record that sat at 19-0. Canelo was the much smaller fighter and it was too much for him but was a huge upset in the combat sports universe. It looks like a trilogy fight between him and Triple G will now have to wait and it looks like a rematch clause will be invoked. This fight sent shockwaves through the world of boxing and will be interesting to see a rematch in the near future.

CSM #Easter #Protest #Billiejeankingcup #NBA #UFC #Vegas51
We started the podcast with talking about Easter and the feasts that happen. We shifted our focus to protests and the inconvenience they cause and backlash the protestors experience.
When the conversation shifted to sports our host Darren spoke about the big tennis tie that happened live in Vancouver that he attended this weekend. You have to listen to his thumbs up and thumbs down type segment as he had some great takes.
The NBA had all their playoff matchups solidified heading into the weekend. All 8 matchups played their first game upon recording of this podcast episode. Jason Cameron is the best in the business at breaking down the Association and his unbiased view of the games and league. He outdid himself in this one and if you are a Bball fan you should do yourself a huge favor and watch these playoff episodes.
Well we gave you insight into Jason's expertise on the NBA but he is just as proficient and capable of the greatest insider takes on the UFC as well. Our Complete Media family is lucky and so are you that we have him giving us his valuable time to these podcasts. Everyone should have the passion, knowledge, wisdom and charisma that he evokes in their life and we think you should benefit from it as much as we have over the years! Listen to him breakdown the latest card from the leader in MMA this past weekend. Belal Muhammad got the victory in the main event over Vicente Luque with a perfect game plan. There were a lot of great fights as usual and we talked about the biggest stories to emerge.

Luckily he is on the mend and still can bring us great takes on his top sports. With Jason being an expert in some of these sports we had a spirited conversation that you are sure to enjoy!
The NBA's 75th diamond anniversary regular season just wrapped up yesterday and now the playin tournament starts tomorrow to complete the top eight in each conference. Cameron made all of his predictions and gave his insight on the matchups. We also were able to breakdown the series that have already been set in the East and West. This is shaping up to be an epic playoffs that will be fun to watch and consume!
UFC 273 was held in Jacksonville, Florida and had quite the memorable card. Their were two championship fights on the docket but they were upstaged by a welterweight battle between #2 ranked Gilbert Burns and #11 ranked Khamzat Chimaev .
Chimaev had already set some UFC records and was on a meteoric rise up the ranks. He finally got a battle worthy of his skill and toughness and it was the fight of the night and lived up to the hype it received. Both Champions retained their belts in the main and co-main events. Alex Volkanovski steamrolled Chang Sung Jung (The Korean Zombie) to keep the featherweight strap. Aljamain Sterling won by split decision to dispatch Petr Yan and continue his reign as the king of the Bantamweights. It was a very close fight with Sterling getting the nod three round to 2 on two judges cards. The rest of the card was fun and had some intriguing battles and matchups that we broke down.
We finished the podcast with some boxing news. Triple G Genady Golovkin had a huge win over Ryota Murata to hold up his end of the bargain in a possible trilogy fight with Canelo Alvarez. Cinnamon faces Dmitry Bivol on May 7th and if he wins the promoters just need to put these two warriors together in the ring asap! The Errol Spence Jr. fight with Yordenis Ugas takes place in Texas this Saturday. The winner likely faces Terrence Crawford in a superfight to try and become the undisputed champion at 147 lbs. Can't wait!!!

NCAA #NBA #NHL #MLB #Masters #Tiger #Canadasoccer
We did a solo sports podcast today with Jason Cameron still on the IR list. Darren did a short wrap on the weekends sports and a big look ahead to a very busy week in sports!
We postponed the podcast for a couple of days to allow us to prepare a look ahead and to the watch the NCAA championship game in college basketball. It was a great tournament that culminated in the final pitting the #1 ranked Kansas Jayhawks vs the #8 ranked North Carolina Tar Heels. This was a game that was the tale of two halves. UNC was by far the better team in the first half and had a dominating lead up 15 by the score 40-25 in the half. The Jayhawks went into the locker room and made some big adjustments. Only 7 minutes into the second half they had erased the deficit and tied the game up! Kansas was finally playing defense and scoring and turned the tables and flexed their muscle. They ended up showing what had propelled them to a top seed and favorite to win the title. The final blow was when UNC's Armando Bacot reaggravated his ankle injury and David McCormack took advantage of the lack of size inside and scored the two biggest buckets to give Kansas the win. it was coach Bill Self's second title and fourth in team history. It was fun to watch and great to witness the culmination of the tournament.
We looked ahead to the last week of the NBA regular season. We went over the top ten teams in each conference. The Raptors are in 5th place in the East and locked up a guaranteed playoff spot. The Lakers on the other hand were eliminated from playoff competition with yet another loss last night. It was a brutal year and they quite frankly did not deserve to be there.
We also went through both conferences in the NHL and discussed the playoff teams in each. The season would typically be finished by now but the NHL pushed their season later this year and so most teams have 10 to 12 games remaining.
The Masters golf tournament received a massive shot in the arm as Tiger Woods is returning after 508 days off as he recovered from surgery after a car accident 14 months ago. Tiger doesn't just move the needle he is the needle in the golf world and he became the top story in sports this week. It will be fun to see his return and the hype surrounding it. The UFC 273 PPV is this weekend in Jacksonville, Florida. With two title fights on the line this card is shaping up to be epic! Khamzat Chimaev is getting a lot of attention as he returns to the octagon for the first time in a while. Don't miss this card or you will regret it.
This is opening week of the MLB season. The league had its troubles in the off season but most is forgotten now as the full 162 game season starts on Thursday! The early favorites to win it all are the LA Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays. It should be a very fun year North of the border.
The Canadian women's soccer team is playing two games in BC this weekend and the Olympic team will be honored at the game! We have tickets and can't wait to show our support and appreciation.

UFCColumbus #ChrisRock #WillSmith #TheSlap #WorldCup
We welcomed our old friend Stephane Cappellini to conduct a podcast with us to breakdown the UFC fight card from Columbus Ohio and preview UFC 273.
We missed our usual Monday evening guest Jason Cameron who is at home recovering from an accident. We extend our best wishes and words of encouragement for a speedy recovery! Stephane did a great job in relief though and this was a fun podcast that you will enjoy!
This episode was supposed to focus on MMA and the latest fight cards but started with a couple of very topical subjects. The Oscars that took place this past weekend were upstaged by Will Smith taking offense to a joke about his wife(Jada Pinkett Smith) and delivered by comedian Chris Rock. He marched up and got on stage and slapped Rock across the face. When he returned to his seat he screamed twice at Rock to keep his wife's name out of his mouth and used some expletives to emphasize his point. It was all people could talk about all day today! Most observers thought it was a staged comedic bit until Smith(who eventually won best actor) repeated his warning so loudly and with such dramatic emphasis. Let us know your thoughts on the incident.
You will enjoy the lively discussion about the great feat of the Canadian Men's Soccer team winning their qualifying group and advancing to the World Cup for the first time in 36 years! This became another unifying moment in the country's history as the run that this team was on edged closer to solidifying the most coveted berth. In this proud nations sporting history this will be remembered as an incredibly defining moment of patriotism and nationalism. Congratulations to the entire team and surrounding staff that brought millions of fans from coast to coast together!
On the heels of the UFC in the UK this fight card had a lot to live up to and the live crowd in Columbus, Ohio did their best to voice their support or displeasure at every opportunity. The main and co-main events were overshadowed on the evening by an all out war between a home town favorite in Matt( The Immortal) Brown and Bryan(Bam Bam) Barbarena. Our host Darren Campbell said it was one of his top ten fights of all time in terms of a toe to toe brawl. The last two fights really showcased the contenders from the pretenders and definitely moved the winners into the upper echelon of their respective weight classes. Even though Curtis( Razor ) Blaydes has lost twice to the current champ Francis(The Predator) Ngannou and once to Derrick (The Black Beast) Lewis he has entered into the conversation of the title picture in the Heavyweight division. With Ngannou recovering from knee surgery the promotion will undoubtably hold an interim champion fight and Blaydes will probably be in the contest. His opponent for now remains a mystery but there will be a lot of speculation and the boys give out the names of the possible combatants. This was another fun card that was entertaining to watch and also a pleasure to breakdown with Stephane(Great Capo) Cappellini.

UFC #Fightnight204 #UFCESPN62 #NFL #NBA #Lebron
The greatest fight night in UFC history just took place in London England at the O2 Arena. The energy and excitement was out of this world and so fun to watch. This podcast was highly anticipated as the UFC had one of the high water marks in it's history. The UK had a stacked card with a lot of top fighters from the country and the the boss Dana White was so happy that he gave out 50K bonuses to all nine fighters who got finishes on the card. Watch and listen to Jason Cameron and Darren Campbell have a blast breaking it down.
The NFL had a few big trades and signings over the last few days and Mr. Cameron had some great takes on the moves. Matt Ryan was traded from his team the Atlanta Falcons to the Indianapolis Colts in the biggest deal of the day. Jameis Winston signed the biggest deal of the day $28 Million over two years with the Saints.
In the Association the King is getting closer to ascending the top points scorer in history throne as he passed Karl Malone for 2nd all time. Kareem Abdul Jabbar is the only player ahead of Lebron James in career points scored and health permitting will become the all time scorer halfway through next season. We discussed the two conferences and the top ten in each.

TomBrady #TB12 #NFL #Freeagentfrenzy #UFCVegas50 #NBA
The sports world was shocked as the G.O.A.T. left the pasture and returned to the NFL! Tom Brady lasted all of 40 days in retirement and put out a social media post to say he is coming back. Brady's announcement came on the eve of Free Agent Frenzy in the NFL and was a cataclysmic shift in the league. There was hundreds of millions of dollars handed out in contracts on Monday to free agents. We went into detail on many of the deals that were announced today.
The UFC card featuring Thiago Santos and Magomed Ankalaev was another main event that failed to live up to the hype and billing. The rest of the card had a lot of entertainment and we broke down the top stories that emerged.
The NBA is starting to get into the stretch run before the playoff and we also discussed many of the teams and great things that happened this past week.

NFL #Suspension #UFC272 #NBA
We started this episode talking about the worst bets ever placed on sports in history. How do you wager $1500 and lose 10 Million you just have to watch to hear how it could happen.
Calvin Ridley made a terrible mistake and it will cost him dearly. The NFL franchise tag deadline is tomorrow afternoon and so there was a lot of stories about signings, trades and who is in line to get these franchise tags.
UFC 272 had a bitter grudge match as the headliner and another five rounder as the co-main. It was a disappointing fight as the sports biggest jerk won in convincing fashion.
We closed out the podcast talking about the association and the stories of the week in the NBA.

Ukraine #Boycott #UFC #Vegas49 #NBA #NFL
The Russian invasion of Ukraine has shook up the world and most of the sporting world is asking for bans and boycotts for Russian teams and events. Our host Darren Campbell thinks that every Russian athlete should be barred from competing in any athletic endeavor individual or team sport.
The conversation started with talking about the UFC card from Vegas this past weekend. Islam Makhachev won the main event with a TKO over Bobby "King" Green. According to Darren he should never have been allowed to compete and the UFC is another league that should be banning any Russian from competing going forward. The card had a lot of interesting elements and these two have a great breakdown that you will enjoy!
The NBA is fully into the second half and there is a good exchange about the biggest trade of the season with James Harden and Ben Simmons switching teams. Harden had a historic start to his career with the Philadelphia 76ers while Ben Simmons had a setback in his attempt to return to play this season. We all look forward to seeing how this trade works out years from now! We spent some time discussing both conferences and the top 10 teams in each and how they have been playing lately.

Familyday #Presidentsday #Vegas48 #UFCfightnight201 #NBA #Allstargame #Cleveland #NFL
We had a great podcast on the long weekend holiday Monday. We dissected the UFC, NBA and NFL.
We had a Knockout of the weekend, month and year candidate in the main event of UFC Vegas 48 and Fight Night 201. The light Heavyweight division was put on notice as #12 ranked Jamahal Hill landed a massive shot to the temple of Brazilian Johnny Walker. Walker the #10 ranked fighter dropped like a tree and was severely knocked out and has now dropped significantly in the rankings. The rest of the card turned out a bunch of great fights.
The NBA had their big All Star showcase in Cleveland Ohio over the weekend. Steph Curry won the Kobe Bryant All Star MVP trophy with an incredible shooting display getting 50 points with 16 three pointers and set at least three records in the process. The other highlight of the weekend was the league bringing out the top 75 players in the history of the league.

SBLVI #UFC271 #NBA
Happy Valentines Day everyone I hope that you all had a nice day with your significant other. What better way to celebrate than breakdown an amazing weekend in sports.
The Super Bowl was a close, competitive game and a great ending to a historic NFL season. The playoffs have been phenomenal and it was a a massive event in the $5 Billion Sofi stadium in LA. The host team Rams won the game by a score of 23 to 20 over the upstart Cincinnati Bengals. The two big stars from the Rams were the best players on the field on Sunday. The MVP was Cooper Kupp who had the greatest season for any receiver ever. The defensive rock was Aaron Donald who won the defensive player of the year and was the catalyst for the victory. The Halftime show was epic and will probably go down as the best performance in the big games history.
The UFC 271 was a great card as the big middleweight title fight was the main event. Israel "The last Stylebender" Adesanya was defending his belt again against Robert "The Reaper" Whitaker. Izzy was the better man and kept his strap with a unanimous decision victory. The co-main had a big boy Heavyweight tilt on the docket Tai Tuivasa joined the upper echelon of the division with a huge KO of Derrick "The Black Beast" Lewis.
We closed out the episode talking about the NBA and the busy week behind with the trade deadline and the week ahead with the All Star game coming up.

Convoy #Patriotic #NFL #SuperBowl56 #UFC #NBA
We started our talk tonight with a rant about the ridiculous Convoys that have been taking over the country. The protestors have disrupted the lives of way too many of their fellow citizens and have swayed public opinion against supporting their cause. Some of the protestors were considered essential workers through the pandemic and were cheered for their hard work and sacrifice. They have now become vilified and widely criticized for the havoc they have caused. Enough is enough and it has become time to stop the madness!!!
The sports conversation started by discussing the horrific football game that was the Pro Bowl in Vegas. It was the worst game ever played and it made a mockery of the sport. Lets try and forget it ever happened. This has been one of if not the greatest competitive seasons in NFL history and we hope that the Super Bowl played in LA this coming weekend puts a perfect cap on this season.
We had a great breakdown of the UFC Fight Night Vegas 47. Sean Strickland used a great jab and takedown defense to beat fellow middleweight Jack Hermansson in the main event. There was a lot of great performances and it was a fun card to watch and dissect.
The podcast finished with NBA talk and we discussed a couple big trades and the deadline is fast approaching. The Association has always been known for a lot of trades and deals and this year is unprecedented in scope. The contenders and pretenders and rebuilds are starting to come more into focus as we get closer to the All Star break and trade deadline.

SuoerBowl #NFL #NBA #UFC
We wrapped up the month of January with a great breakdown of the weekend in sports.
We were especially excited about the Conference Championships in the NFL. The remarkable tightly contested games continued as both games came down to field goals being the winning margins. The two teams that made it came from very different perspectives. The LA Rams went all in this year to try and be the 2nd straight team to play the Super Bowl in their home stadium. The Bengals were not supposed to be here yet as they were the worst team in football just two short years ago. So Cinderella is invited to the ball and can complete the remarkable season with a victory in the big game. Enjoy Jason's breakdown and prediction for Super Bowl 56.
We discussed the top teams in the Association and got some great expertise from Mr. Cameron in the NBA top stories.
The UFC was next on the agenda as we looked ahead to the next Fight Night on the schedule. The main event is in the Middleweight division between #6 Jack Hermansson and #7 Sean Strickland. There are a lot of great matchups on the card and we can't wait to see the world leader in Combat sports back this coming weekend.

Divisionalround #NFL #UFC270 #NBA
We witnessed one of the greatest games in NFL history and it capped off an epic and legendary sports weekend.
The Kansas City Chiefs outlasted their upstart rival the Buffalo Bills 42 to 36 in overtime in a instant classic game this past weekend. The two teams traded blows throughout and especially late as they put up 25 points in the final 2 minutes to force overtime. It was a lights out duel between Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen who have both entered the elite QB's in the league. The other three games were all decided by game winning last second walk off field goals. The Cincinnati Bengals upset the #1 seed Green Bay Packers 19 to 16 when they blocked two kicks in the game and their rookie kicker Evan Mcpherson hit a 52 yard field goal to win . The Chiefs host them next Sunday in AFC Title matchup which is the early game.
In the NFC the #1 seed also was upset this game featured the Green Bay Packers hosting the San Francisco 49ers. Jimmy G and his Niners did just enough to pull out the 13 to 10 victory as Robbie Gould got the game winning field goal. They travel to LA to face the Rams who also won their game on a last second field goal and blowing a 24 point lead to the G.O.A.T Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Bucs. it was a memorable and terrific display of top level football.
We covered the UFC 270 that was the first PPV card of 2022. There were two title fights on the docket as the Biggest and Smallest champs on the roster were defending their belts. Francis Ngannou remains the baddest man on the planet as he dispatched the challenger the previously undefeated Cyril Gane. The other title fight was a trilogy matchup between the Champ Brandon Moreno and the challenger former champ Deiveson Figueiredo fought for the Flyweight strap. The Brazilian Figueiredo regained his belt with a unanimous decision victory. This is setting up a fourth matchup between the two as the both have a win and there was a draw. This will be a highly anticipated rubber match that will likely take place in Moreno's homeland of Mexico. The rest of the card was entertaining and fun to watch and breakdown.
We briefly discussed the NBA and a few of the latest stories to emerge from the league.

Parody #OT #Week18 #NFL #Wildcardpredictions #NBA #UFC #Completesports
We at Complete Sports were absolutely amazed at the NFL season coming down to the last game! The Sunday Nighter was a very memorable game and eventually decided the last two spots into the playoffs. It came down to the last play of the game and must have made the league officials very happy!
It was nice to welcome Jason Cameron back into the Complete Sports Media podcast studio for another fun breakdown of the NFL, NBA and UFC.

UFC269 #UFC #NFL #NBA
This is an in depth breakdown of the big UFC 269 card, week 14 of the NFL and the NBA.
The final Pay Per View for the UFC of 2021 was memorable and historic. There were two title belts on the line and there was a lot of anticipation for this card. The co-main event was the championship fight in the women's bantamweight division. The champion going in is the GOAT Amanda "The Lioness" Nunes and she has been rarely tested. Juliana Pena was supposed tp be the latest victim to fall at the hands of the Champ. The oddsmakers had the line at around 10 to 1 in favor of Amanda. Well the reason why they schedule fights and play the games is that upsets are always a possibility. This night the unthinkable happened and the belt changed hands as the "NEW" UFC Bantamweight champion is Juliana Pena the holder of the biggest upset in the sports history! It has sent shockwaves through the MMA world and we discussed it at length. Of course we also talked about the Main event where Charles Oliviera defended his title and beat "The Diamond" Dustin Poirier with a rear naked choke in the 3rd round. We had fun watching and breaking down this legendary card.
We did an extensive review of week 14 of the NFL and discussed the top seven seeds in each conference. . Many familiar teams have risen to the top In the NFC the Packers, Bucs are the top two seeds. In the AFC it is New England once again the #1 seed and the Chiefs and Ravens are the third and fourth seeds. We had a blast watching and then doing an in depth analysis of every team and their latest performance.
We finished as usual with a little NBA coverage. Steph Curry is on the verge of becoming the career all time 3 pointers made leader. He will pass Ray Allen tomorrow night at the World's most famous arena Madison Square Garden. It will be fun to witness and will be remembered for many years to come.

NFL #Week13 #UFCvegas44 #Fightnight #NBA
We had a great conversation about week 13 in the National Football League! We went through the current top 7 playoff teams in each conference and broke down their games and performances. This unprecedented season continues to surprise and amaze everyone who follows it closely as we do.
We dissected the great UFC card featuring top bantamweight contenders Jose Aldo and Rob Font as the headliners. That turned out to be a great fight and further solidified "The King of Rio" Aldo as one of the GOATs of the sport. Another legend Clay Guida also had a great performance albeit in an epic comeback. We really had a blast watching this card and breaking it down.
The NBA rolls along and we got lucky this week as the schedule had tow back to back contests with the top two teams in the Association. The Golden State Warriors and Phoenix Suns have been far and away the best basketball teams this season and they both flexed their muscles and they split the two games. It has been a pleasure watching these two play the game the right way and have great success. Some of the other stories of the week and top teams were discussed.

NFL #NBA #UFC #weekendwrapup
This was a great podcast as we covered the sports world in the best detail.
We started by covering week 12 in the NFL and discussed the playoff teams from top to bottom in both conferences. The Arizona Cardinals are tops in the NFC and the Baltimore Ravens are now the top seeded team in the AFC.
Our conversation turned to the NBA and the stories emerging from the league. We are on the eve of a titanic matchup between the 18-2 Golden State Warriors and 17-3 Phoenix Suns as they play tomorrow night and Friday to see who is the best in the west so far.
We previewed the upcoming UFC card featuring the main event in the bantamweight division between the veteran legend Jose Aldo and and up and comer in Rob Font. It has a lot of great matchups and should be a fun card to watch and breakdown.

Livemusic #Lunch #NFL #UFCVegas43 #NBA
This is the 150th Complete Sports Media podcast in our history! This was a fun conversation that you should watch and listen to! We talked about our weekend and finally getting out to see live music. We also watched a bunch of sports and we wrapped it up with this conversation.
Our afternoon started with one of the best sandwiches that we have ever had and it just kicked off a great day!
We had a good chat about week 11 in the NFL. There were some upsets again but also a few top teams flexing their muscle and getting big wins. The UFC unfortunately held their worst ever card in history and subjected us to a brutal day of fights. The entire card was full of decision wins except for one lone submission victory and no knockouts. It was slow methodical, boring and was not compelling at all. Our discussion turned to the worst UFC cards in history and UFC 33 and UFC 149 were talked about in detail.
The NBA had an ugly fight over the weekend and got a lot of unwanted exposure that showed a bit of an ugly side of the game. Lebron James and Isaiah Stewart got into a fight and it escalated and became out of control. Lebron James was kicked out of the game and suspended 1 additional game and Stewart got 2 games for his part of the altercation. We talked about the firing of head coach Luke Walton from the Sacramento Kings and Alvin Gentry taking over. Our conversation turned to the top teams in the league and it was fun to breakdown.

NFL #UFC268 #Bestofyear #MSG #Canelo #NBA
This weekend was one of the best of the year with the best UFC card of 2021, Canelo winning in dramatic fashion, the NFL and NBA having great weekends!
Week 9 of the NFL was the strangest weirdest weekend in years. There were huge upsets and so many QB's M.I.A . that it was a bit shocking. The Bills were upset by the lowly Jags, The Cowboys were humiliated by Denver. The Cardinals and Titans remained the best teams record wise in their respective conferences. It was fun to watch and breakdown!
The UFC 268 card from Madison Square Garden was epic and became one of the best fight cards of all time! There were two belts and many lives on the line! It made our Saturday night as well as millions of others. The two titles fights were great but the fight of the year goes to Justin Gaethje VS Michael Chandler!!! Enjoy the analysis and try to find the fights online to be entertained out of your socks!!!

Thanksgiving #NFL #Boxing #UFC
Hello fans of the Complete Sports Media Podcast, Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
We put a wrap on week 5 (except for the Monday Nighter) of the NFL. The Cards remained the only unbeaten team and the Jags and Lions are winless. The big game was the Chiefs and Bills as Buffalo exacted revenge and got the huge win. The Chargers and Browns were involved an old fashioned shootout as the Chargers emerged as a top team in the AFC. Tom Brady had his best performance of his career as the defending Super Bowl champs flexed their muscle.
We discussed the epic instant classic Heavyweight title boxing fight between Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder. Fury retained his belt with an 11th round knockout of Wilder who almost beat the champ with two knockdowns of Fury in the fourth round.
The UFC had a smaller card and early as to not be overshadowed by the biggest fight in Vegas as boxing took over the city for this night. The women emerged as the top competitors on this card as they took the four fight bonuses. The main event between Marina Rodriguez and Mackenzie Dern was the fight of the night.

The pandemic shut down live sports for a long stretch but they came back. Many teams and leagues started play again without fans in the stands.

We were at the last game in Rogers arena March 10th 2020 vs the New York Islanders. Fast Forward to the present October 5th 2021 we can finally go live and cheer on the home team live and in person. The Canucks are playing host to the Seattle Kraken tonight and we can't wait to finally be back in an arena with our fellow fans.

UFCVegas36 #UFCfightnight191 #UFCESPN31 #NFL #NFLOpeningweek
This was a fun and entertaining podcast episode as we discussed the UF, NFL and NBA! We covered the UFC in great detail! This card was supposed to take place in England and could not because of Covid so they still kept the start time very early in North America. Derek Brunson took a huge step into the UFC Middleweight Title picture. He handily beat Darren Till and should be next up to face the winner of the Champ Israel Adesanya and Robert Whitaker. The highly entertaining card was full of English fighters and two Canadians.

BC #namechange #Jakepaul #UFC #NFL #NBA
Earlier today we heard about the possibility of this Province changing it's name and how mad the reports made our host! There is a bit of a viewer warning as the language gets quite colorful and full of expletives as he went on a tirade!
When the conversation turned to sports the first topic was the celebrity boxing match between Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley. A detailed and lengthy discussion ensues! We discussed the UFC Vegas 35 or ESPN 30 card which had a lot of great fights top to bottom. The main event had veteran Edson Barboza facing Giga Chickadze in a battle of high level strikers. They gave many insightful comments and a great viewpoint.
The talk turned to a couple of subjects in the NFL especially the possible postponement of the game in New Orleans to start the season. Hurricane Ida has brought evacuations and damage to the Lousiana town. Carson Wentz has landed in Covid protocol and is now again in jeopardy of missing opening day after surgery was originally thought to be the delay.

We started off the Podcast with a conversation about the impending deadline for free agency in the NBA. There will be a flurry of action today and eventually deals signed that could total 2 to 3 billion dollars in contracts. Chris Paul opted out of his $44 Million dollar player option and Kawhi Leonard opted out of his $36 Million dollar deal and both are looking for longer contracts for more money.

NBA #NBAdratft #NBAtrades #NFL #Olympics #UFC
This was a fun breakdown of a very busy weekend in the world of sports!
We started off talking about some huge trades in the NBA. We put a capper on the NBA season.
We kept talking about basketball but discussed the Olympic tournaments and especially the big US loss to France to open the games. There was also some chat about the Canadian women's loss to Serbia in their opening basketball game. We got into discussing more of the Olympics from Tokyo and how the nations are doing and we talked about the new sports that have been added to the games for the first time.

The UFC card was full of comebacks and should forever be known as the comeback card! TJ Dillashaw was returning to the Octagon after a two and a half year absence. He was caught doping and was given a two year ban from the sport. The former two time bantamweight champion was able to pull out a huge win over Cory Sandhagen in his return. The rest of the main card all had comebacks from early adversity and was one of the most entertaining cards of the year.

UFC #UFCApex NBA #Finals #Milwaukee #Phoenix
This was a fun podcast as we broke down the UFC and the NBA Finals!
The UFC had a Fight night card at the Apex in Vegas. It was Islam Makachev vs Thiago Moises and the fighter from Dagestan was far superior in every way. The Co-main event featured Meisha Tate returning from 4 years of retirement. Speaking of retirement her opponent Marion Renau said this was her last fight of her career. Tate won handily getting a TKO in the 3rd and not looking rusty at all. The entire card was great and we dissected it throughout.
The NBA has reached it final week as the Milwaukee Bucks won the games in a row to be on the verge of franchises first title in 50 years.

Eurocup #Danceparty #FOMO #Boatparade #Grandslam #Wimbledon #TeamUSA #NBA #UFC #HomerunDerby
On the heels of an epic weekend we did our recap of the weekend in sports!
The Euro Cup reached a very dramatic conclusion as the final happened on Sunday. England was hosting in Wembley Stadium against Italy as a fantastic tournament reached its crescendo! In a very dramatic shootout Italy were the crowned the kings of the Euro when their goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma saved the final shot on goal. The party happened all over the world in Italy and little Italy in most major cities on the planet. We showed some footage from our local gathering that spurred on a street dance party.
We touched on the Stanley Cup boat parade that looked really fun especially for Nikita Kucherov who has had an epic celebration going for a week!
We discussed the incredible Wimbledon victory for Novak Djokovic who has now joined the elite mark of 20 Grand Slam titles!
The conversation remained in basketball but shifted to the NBA Final where Milwaukee scored a decisive victory winning big 120 to 100 in game three. Phoenix is still up two games to one but have now had doubt crept in to their domination of this series. The Bucks are now 8 and 1 at home and looked really good in making this a series. The Phoenix Suns had their issues after playing two great games in Arizona. Devin Booker had an off night and didn't play much down the stretch as the game seemed out of reach early. Deandre Ayton was in early foul trouble and wasn't able to play much either. Giannis took big advantage of the absence of the big man and was huge with 41 points 13 rebounds and 6 assists. Game 4 goes on Wednesday and all signs point to this series being tied at two games apiece after this next game.
The UFC 264 card was held on Saturday at the T Mobile arena in Vegas in front of a sold out crowd. The main event was the trilogy fight between Dustin " Diamond" Poirier and The Notorious Conor McGregor. The animosity was amped up for this one and the anticipation was huge. Unfortunately the fight had a tough ending as McGregor broke his leg near the end of the 1st round and couldn't continue. We showed a TikTok post by Conor after he endured 3 and a half hours of surgery to repair the damage done to his leg. There was a lot to unpack with this one. The co-Main event was an incredibly impressive performance from Gilbert Burns over Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson. We broke down the 12 fight card and discussed so many aspects of the great stacked evening.

CanadaDay #IndependenceDay #FIBA #NBA #UFC
This was a great podcast talking about NBA and UFC and some other topics.
The NBA Finals are set as the Milwaukee Bucks outlasted the Atlanta Hawks and punched their ticket to the dance. They face the rested Phoenix Suns who have been waiting a while after handily dispatching the LA Clippers. This should be an intriguing matchup with some fun story lines. Giannis Antetokounmpo is still suffering from a severely hyperextended knee and missed the last two games of the East Finals. He will probably miss some of this upcoming series which gets underway Tuesday night.
The UFC 264 card is upon us and the much anticipated trilogy fight between Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier looks poised to happen Saturday night. we broke down the fight and card as a whole previewing much of the festivities.
We discussed the upcoming UFC 265 card that features the headliner for the interim Heavyweight belt between Derrick Lewis and Cyril Gane. Finally John Dodson former UFC fighter was involved in a car accident over the weekend with his wife and kids and a go fund me page has been set up to help with costs and loss of income. http://gofund.me/98164f1b if you want to donate.

Heatwave #NBA #Conferencefinals #EuroBasket #UFC
We are experiencing a heatwave locally and so we are just trying not to melt. Most are staying indoors and using fans and ice and sports to stay cool! We discussed our methods to keep cool and go without sleep and try and survive!
The conversation eventually got to the NBA playoffs and the Conference Finals. The third game between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Atlanta Hawks was last night. Atlanta was controlling the game until the late third and fourth. Ice Trae Young tweaked his ankle as he stepped on the foot of the official standing behind him and left the game. The Bucks took advantage of the young leader and kept feeding Kris Middleton who was lethal and deadly. The Second banana of the Bucks outscored the Hawks himself 20 to 17 and contributed to a 25 to 7 run to win the game 113 to 102. The Bucks take a two games to one lead in the series and look poised to take a stranglehold on the series.
In the Western Conference final the Phoenix Suns are on the verge of securing a berth in the final for the first time since 1993. They employed some old school basketball winning a defensive grind out game 84 to 80 in game 4. Game 5 is tonight at 6 PM pacific and if the LA Clippers don't win this series is over as Phoenix is up three games to one. Kawhi Leonard has already been ruled out and he has been sorely missed. Ivica Zubac has been utilized a lot in this series and is questionable to play tonight. It seems very unlikely that the Clips will be able to completely stave off elimination.
We showed some highlights of the women's Euro Basket tournament and the big win for Serbia 63 to 54 over France. This was their second ever title but was an upset. Congratulations for winning a great tournament.
The UFC was in Vegas again and showcased the Heavyweight division. The Main event had top contenders Cyril Gane facing Alex "Drago " Volkov in a five round titanic battle. Gane was incredibly dominant and really was able to show his superiority inflicting damage and barely taking any himself. The Co-Main event had Canadian Tanner Boser facing Ovince St. Preux and had some unnecessary controversy. Boser was his usual fast moving and damaging self in the first round and won the round handily. The second round was going the same way as the first until OSP got a takedown. The fighters were scrambling for position when Boser reached his hand up the cage. His fist was closed but many thought he was grabbing the fence to pull himself up. The referee Jason Herzog momentarily approached the fighters to see if Tanner was utilizing an unfair advantage. He realized that it wasn't anything illegal and allowed the fight to continue uninterrupted. Boser was able to get back to his feet quite soon after and pressed the action. Tanner landed a knee and a shot to the side of OSP's head and dropped him and started smashing him as Herzog stepped in and stopped the bout this time. The camp for OSP is protesting the decision and want it to be called a no-contest. We will keep you posted as to a decision or ruling. There were a lot of other great fights broken down by Jason and Darren. Also they looked ahead to UFC 264 in tow weeks featuring the trilogy fight between Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier.

NewYork #NBAplayoffs #Lakers #MLB #Mets #NHL #Islanders #NFL
We had a great guest today as we welcomed in Barry Grant Jr. from the All Even Podcast to talk sports!
This week has been tough because we have had audio troubles and don't know why. We hope that we can get this sorted out so great podcast episodes like this will be easier to listen to!
This was such a fun and enjoyable conversation that we hope this can become a regular thing. It is incredible to see someone doing something they love and seem like they were born for it. This is definitely the case with Barry when he does these podcasts. He told us that his family said "What took you so long"! His passion for sports is inspiring and comes across when he talks about it. He has a lot in common with our host Darren Campbell and many of our sports analysts. It was nice to find out all of his favorite teams as it gave them a lot of subject matter. His is a Lakers, Mets, Islanders and Cowboys fan and he has amazing stories about his teams!
It was great to breakdown the NBA playoffs with Barry as he has an incredible insight and knowledge and strong opinions on the story lines from the Association. His picks were Milwaukee and Phoenix to meet in the final. We were recording just as game 6 between the Atlanta Hawks and Philadelphia 76ers was about to begin. The hawks are trying to knock off the #1 seed in the East. The late game has the LA Clippers trying to close out the Utah Jazz in game 6 as well. The Jazz were the #1 tezm in the West and in fact the league in the regular season. Barry refered to this season aas one right out of the Twilight Zone. If Atlanta and LA win tonight it will be the first time since 1995 that not one of the #1 seeds have made the final.
We discussed his love of the New York Mets and MLB. He has such great stories that show he bleeds blue and orange for the Mets.
Living and working on Long Island has made him and an Islanders fan and provided him a lot of great and fun times especially when he used to work directly across the street from Nassau Coliseum.
We started wrapping up our conversation by finding out who his NFL team was and were kind of shocked to hear that it was the Dallas Cowboys. He loves Jerry Jones as he reminds him of Vince McMahon the outspoken owner of the WWE wrestling. He thinks the Cowboys will have a great season this coming year!
We all had a blast watching and listening in to this conversation with two very passionate sports fans. Give it a watch and listen even if it doesn't sound perfect.

UFC #TannerBoser #Heavyweight #Funnystories #Shocore
We had a fun in depth conversation with Tanner "The Bulldozer" Boser the UFC Heavyweight Contender. Robbery was the most utilized word on twitter the night of Tanner's last UFC appearance on June 5th. The majority of people that went on to his personal feed said that the Canadian talent should have won the judges decision when his fight with Illir Latifi was over. The shock was real when the scorecards were read and the split decision went the Swede's way. It was hard to fathom that two judges gave two rounds to the "Sledgehammer" as the quick footed Boser seemed to have won the first two rounds, The judge that gave the nod to Tanner scored the second round 10 to 8 when he almost finished Latifi. That was easy to see that perspective and made people question the skill level and ability of the other two judges. Scoring and judging has long been in question in Mixed Martial Arts and the UFC. Most observers and followers of the sport see the obvious flaws and have been asking for a change for years. Lets hope that more careers are not so negatively affected by incompetence.
So long story short Tanner is coming off another tough loss that should not have counted as one. He lost a close decision to veteran Andre Arlovski in his prior fight to this one. Tanner is worried for his career as he has seen many fighters given their pink slips and cut from the promotion after three straight defeats. Tanner has asked for a quick turnaround fight in July or August and awaits his next opponent. We here at Complete Sports hope that he can rebound with a big victory and put these tough losses in his rear view mirror and move back uo the ranks. We talked about many aspects of Tanner and his life and it was a treat to get into a lot of fun exchanges.

NHL #Petes #Leafs #Wings #Canucks #ALS #Awareness #LouGehrig
This is a very special conversation with a very remarkable guy. Mark Kirton forged his early life in pro hockey and we discuss many aspects at length. He played 520 AHL games that he is even more proud of than the 280 NHL games.
His second career was as a top real estate agent as he won awards and became very successful. Life had really been dealing him a great hand as well as his career success and he had a great marriage and three healthy kids. Life took an unexpected turn when he went on a holiday to the Bahamas and he felt a twitch in his right arm then more and more symptoms started happening as the months went on. He decided to try and get a diagnosis on what was happening to his health. After three years and some mis-diagnosis and no answers he and his family were dealt a terrible blow as he was told he had ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease. The doctor told them that the outcome is that typically people live 2 to 5 years with this before they succumb to it. Mark wants to be on the long end of that scale and even last much longer than that. He has become a crusader and he has raised a lot of money and awareness for this affliction.

We had our regular Monday analyst Jason Cameron join us and then surprised him with Scott Holburn joining the conversation for our one year anniversary show!
There are audio issues that we are aware of and trying to fix we apologize and we will do our best to address it soon. It was a lot of fun to have two of our top analysts together and there was some chirping of course! It seems like there will be a jiujitsu grappling exchange between these two in the future. That will be must see TV and we will be there recording it for a future episode.
It was great being able to breakdown the UFC 263 card. There were two title fights with one of the belts changing hands. The fight that happened right before the two co-main event fights seemed to get most of the attention because of Nate Diaz. Leon Edwards absolutely dominated 24 minutes of the five round battle until Diaz landed a huge shot in the final minute. Nate almost finished the fight with a KO but Edwards survived the late onslaught. Diaz still moves the needle even getting beat handily.
In the main event Israel Adesanya absolutely crushed the Italian Dream and made it a nightmare for him and all of his camp and fans. It was a completely one sided contest and proved how dominant the Style Bender is over the entire division.
The co-main event was for the Flyweight title and was a rematch between Champion Deiveson Figueiredo and challenger Brandon Moreno. The first fight ended in a draw and prompted this rematch. This time Moreno was dominant and ripped the belt from Figueiredo's grasp. He becomes the first Mexican born champion in UFC history. We had fun discussing almost every element of this historic card.
We said good bye to Scott and then closed out the episode with a breakdown of the NBA playoffs. The Suns were the first to advance to the Conference finals with a sweep of the Denver Nuggets. The rest of the series are tight and were fun to dissect.

NBA #Playoffs #UFCApex #UFC263
We did our weekly podcast one day early and had a great conversation about the NBA playoffs the latest UFC card and looked ahead to two more cards.
The 7th game of the series between the LA Clippers and the Dallas Mavericks had just finished as we were about to start today. We got into breaking it down immediately. and had fun talking about this great series that LA was able to take by winning the final two games and the first one by a home team in the entire 7 games. Kawhi Leonard was the difference and had a bit better supporting cast than Luka Doncic who was incredible this season and especially this series. We talked about game 1 in the Atlanta Hawks vs the Philadelphia 76ers that was all Hawks who were typically leading by 20 points all game until the final minutes. Philly mounted an incredible comeback that eventually fell just short. Joel Embiid the MVP finalist this season was questionable going in to this game but was able to play and was very good and looked pretty healthy. We discussed the series between the Brooklyn Nets and the Milwaukee Bucks and the Titanic battle that should ensue between these two powerhouses. The Nets were dealt a huge blow in the first minute of the first game as their all star guard James Harden hurt his hamstring and left the game not to return. The other two all stars on the Nets stepped up and delivered a huge game one victory. Blake Griffin turned back the clock and had 18 points and 14 rebounds to be a huge factor in this win. We spent a bit more analysing the other matchups and it was fun getting into it with JC.
We leaped into the cage and talked about the latest UFC card that featured three heavyweight battles with two of them being the Main and Co-main events. Jairzinho Rozenstruik delivered a huge KO with one second left in the first round as he dispatched Augusto Sakai with a couple of huge powershots! He collected 50K for the dramatic finish and performance and so did Marcin Tybura for his huge TKO win over Walt Harris. Harris "The Big Ticket" had Tybura in all sorts of trouble early as he landed some big blows and came very close to finishing the Polish fighter off. Tybura then took Harris down and imposed his will and when he finally had his back and flattened him out Mark Smith the ref jumoed in to stop the onslaught. The other heavyweight tilt had Tanner "Bulldozer: Boser facing Iliir "Sledgehammer" Latifi and was a good battle that went to the judges scorecards. The majority of viewers expected that the Canadians hand would be raised but it was a split decision for Latifi much to the chagrin of the fans North of the border. This result led to more complaints on poor judging results that seem to happen on every card. We hope here at Complete Sports that this is not to much of a setback for Tanner and he gets a fight set up soon so he can rebound with a victory. There were a bunch of other fights brokedown in this discussion so enjoy the conversation!

MediaNetwork #Complete #Sports #NBA #UFC #Exciting #Countdown
The launch is upon us for the Complete Media Network!!! The level of excitement has reached a fever pitch here at our headquarters. Complete Sports Media is excited to be joining the prestigous Complete Media Network. Jason and Darren had their weekly podcast and they had a very fun and entertaining conversation. The two sports analysts eventually looked over the new website that will have an official soft launch tomorrow at 9:00 AM. It is great to see and hear Jason's reaction to the many elements of the site.
The guys started talking about their mutual love of food and it will make you laugh!
They began the sports talk with the Indianapolis 500 race that ran yesterday. The race track worked with the local health authority and they agreed on a fan capacity of 40% of the max capacity. That figure is 135,000 patrons and it brought an energy to the race and festivities that hasn't been seen in 14 months. The Pandemic forced the sport to go without fans for a stretch and has slowly started allowing more and more people to attend live races. This was extra special and was historic as Helio Castroneves won his 4th Indy 500 race at 46 years young. He tied legendary racers AJ Foyt, Al Unser Sr. and Rick Mears are the ony drivers in history to have 4 wins at the famous brickyard. Castroneves said in the post race interview that he felt great to be part of a kind of geriatic sportsman club with 43 year old Tom Brady and 50 year old Phil Mickelson who both won major championships this year!
The talk turned to the huge game 7 in the NHL playoffs between the overwhelming favorite Toronto Maple Leafs against the underdog Montreal Canadiens. The Leafs seemed to have this series well in hand until the Habs won two straight overtime games to stave off elimination and force a deciding winner takes all game. The Winnipeg Jets await the winner of this series.
The first round of the NBA playoffs is just a week old and all 8 series are in full swing. We broke down all 4 matchups from each conference with only one decided so far. Watch the breakdowns as there is some great insight from the boys!
This past weekend was a rare weekend off for the UFC but the top MMA organization is back at it next weekend. The guys analyzed the Main and co-main event as well as a few others. Tanner Boser a recent podcast guest here at Complete Sports Media will be in action against Illir Latifi in heavyweight clash on the preliminary card.

NBA #Openingweekend #Upsets #NFL #UFC #UFCApex #UFCVegas27
We had a lively discussion about the long weekend and the easing of restrictions starting tomorrow. This pandemic and constant messing with our lives and freedoms has taken its toll. It will be nice when life will feel much more normal again. We were on the heels of the opening weekend of NBA playoffs as all eight series got under way. We were excited to breakdown the opening games of every matchup. There were some upsets and tight games and it was fun to break them down. In NBA history in 7 game series the winner of the opening game has gone on to win 76% of the time so it has proven to be very important to get off to a good start.
The #1 seed Utah Jazz were upset by the #8 seed Memphis Grizzlies but the late scratch of Donavan Mitchell was tough on the Jazz. Even though the Phoenix Suns are the #2 seed in the West a lot of pundits predicted the #7 seed Lakers are going to win this series. So when the Suns won game one many were calling it an upset. The #3 seed Denver Nuggets lost to the #6 seed Portland Trailblazers as the guard matchup is so one sided for the Blazers as Jamal Murray will not play this postseason for Denver. Dallas Mavericks won as Luka Doncic had a 30 point triple double to lead the way for their mini upset in the #4 VS #5 Matchup they have against the LA Clippers .
In the East #1 is the Philadelphia 76ers who dominated the Washington Wizards with the great scoring from Tobias Harris and Joel Embid and great game from Ben Simmons. The amazing backcourt of Russell Westbrook and Bradley Beal didn't have enough to overcome the depth of Philly. The Brooklyn Nets are the #2 seed and their big three of James Harden, Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving scored or assisted on 98 of 104 total points in their victory over Boston. The #3 Milwaukee Bucks outlasted the Miami Heat in overtime. Both teams struggled to score but Kris Middleton was good and hit the winning bucket. Madison Square Garden was the host to a playoff game for the first time in years and it was rocking. Trae Young was electric and silenced the boisterous crowd with his winning shot in the final seconds as the Atlanta Hawks beat the New York Knicks. The playoffs continue and will be fun to watch.
The NFL had trade requests and news on some disgruntled QB's that we mentioned briefly.
The UFC held a Vegas 27 card and we had fun discussing the fights and breaking them down. The Main event was Rob Font facing Cody Garbrandt and it was a one sided match.

NBA #TripleDouble #Record #BigO #Westbrook #NFL #DKMetcalf #UFC
Our weekend had a strange thing happen as we got locked down on on island after a gang shooting closed all the bridges and tunnel. We decided to just watch sports so we could be entertained and get ready for our podcast!
This was an incredibly fun podcast as we talked about the week in the NBA. The biggest story has been Russell Westbrook"s pursuit of the triple double record in the NBA. Oscar Robertson put up 181 triple doubles in his illustrious Hall of Fame career. Westbrook tied it with a triple double on Saturday. We were recording the podcast hours before the Wizards and Westbrook were to take the court against the Atlanta Hawks. We were very certain that he was going to set the record this evening. We discussed many elements as the regular season entered it's final week.
We showed some clips of DK Metcalf in the NFL and at his recent 100 meter race that he was competing in. He has become almost legendary with his speed on the field for the Seattle Seahawks in the NFL. We talked about the incredible story of former NFL QB Tim Tebow resurrecting his career as a Tight end for the Jacksonville Jaguars. We finished our football talk about the Aaron Rodgers speculation of the Green Bay Packers trading him.
We broke down the latest UFC Card that had Marina Rodriguez facing Michelle Waterson as the Main event. There were a lot of fights that dropped from this card and we went into detail of the issues that arose. We brokedown the main card in detail.

UFC #Apex #Fightnight #NBA #NFL
This podcast blanketed the weekend coverage of the UFC, NBA and the NFL draft.
We started with the UFC and the main event between top contenders for the Light Heavyweight division. Dominick Reyes was coming off two title fights as he lost a close decision to Jon Jones and was knocked out by Jan Blachowicz. He was initially the favorite as he faced a relative newcomer Jiri Prochazka who had only one UFC fight prior to this match. This turned out to be the fight of the night and was a war that Prochazka ended with a spinning elbow KO with 31 seconds left in the second round. This win gives him the next title shot against the winner or Jan Blachowicz and Glover Texeria scheduled for UFC 266 in September. The card was fun to watch and also enjoyable to breakdown.
The NBA is heading into its final weeks and the playoff picture is really taking shape. The top six teams in each conference will be waiting for the results of the play in tournament between places 7th through 10th place. With the playoffs just around the corner the games have taken on a level of importance and competiveness. We talked about some of the established stars and emerging talents from the association.
The NFL was showcased this weekend as they held their annual draft and it provided all 32 organizations with immmediate help. With the NFL typically players can contribute and play almost immediately because they are drafted after four years of college and are men. The other sports the prospects are kids and they need time to develop. It was fun to watch and see these teams and young men converge and see their lives change in an instant.

UFC #MMA #UFC261 #AndStill #AndNew #PFL #NBA #NFL
We had another great podcast episode with Jason Cameron who helped us breakdown the big UFC 261 card that had three title fights scheduled. This was a bit historic as it was the first time since Covid hit that they allowed full capacity of fans as they held the card in Jacksonville, Florida.
This card was incredibly stacked and had former champion Chris Weidman facing off against Uriah Hall. This didn't seem to be the fight we would focus on first but that changed. This was one of the most talked about fights after because Weidman suffered a horrific compound fracture of his leg only seconds into the battle. He threw a low kick to the leg of Hall and when Hall checked it Weidman's leg snapped on the impact. The strange and ironic part of this result was that in July of 2013 the exact same thing happened to his opponent Anderson "The Spider" Silva and handed Weidman the UFC Middleweight Championship Belt. We played a short clip from Weidman that he posted from his hospital bed as he tried to update his followers. We hope that he will make a full recovery and be able to get back to doing what he loves in 2022.
The card had three title fights on the night and was entertaining throughout. The main event pitted the Middleweight Champ Kamara Usman defending his belt against Jorge Masvidal for a second time. This was a dominating KO victory only 1 minute into the second round. In 50 pro fights "Game Bred" Masvidal had never been knocked out and hadn't been finished in 12 years. Usman will now be facing Coby Covington for a second time. In the first matchup Usman broke Coby's jaw and was dominant in victory.
In the Co-Main event Rose Namajunas upset the Champion of the womens Strawweight division Weili Zhang. "Thug" Rose threw a high head kick and dropped the champ and finished the fights with shots on the ground. Rose became the first woman to ever recapture the titler after losing it.
The other title fight on the card had womens Flyweight Champ the "Bullet" Valentina Shevchenko proved once again that she is the dominant fighter in this weight division. She rivals the G.O.A.T Amanda Nunes and is possibly setting herself up for a trilogy fight with Nunes.
The card had a lot of fun fights and we broke them down as usual.
Our conversation shifted to the NBA and we went through the latest news of the week.
The NFL draft happens this week and we just mentioned it briefly as it is starting to look like quarterbacks will be chosen with the first four picks for the first time in history.

UFC #MMA #Canadian #TannerBoser #Heavyweight #JiuJitsu #Karate #MuayThai #Kickboxing #WorldTraveler #Alberta #Edmonton #ShoCore
This is a real treat to have this big guy as a guest for our sports podcast. Tanner ""The Bulldozer" Boser is a rising contender in the UFC Heavyweight division who has had 5 UFC fights. Tanner has a great and fun loving personality and we enjoyed our time with him. The UFC has scheduled a fight for June 5th for Boser against Illir Latifi the Swedish Heavyweight of Albanian descent.
We spent a lot of time getting to know Tanner and were able to find out a lot of great things about his life. We have mutual friends in the band ShoCore and we thank Corey White and the band for helping us make this podcast episode happen! A lot of people and especially Canadian Mixed Martial Arts fans have been seeing a huge progression in Tanner with his strength and conditioning and his career. He has now become more well known off two big Knockouts in a one month span in the UFC Heavyweight Division. He has some of the best footwork in the division and has lethal leg kicks. His candor and no nonsense way about him has endeared him and helped contribute to his increasing popularity. He has a mullet, long beard and is missing one of his front teeth and that seems to appeal to many fight fans. We found him gracious and forthcoming as he talked about his life, career and even tough topics. We hope that you enjoy his conversation with us and you become fans of his as much as we have.
There are a lot of stereotypes when it comes to Canadian's and Albertan's and he checks many of the good boxes when it comes to where he is from. He has led a typical life in some regards but luckily has had some great people in his life to help him achieve his goals and dreams. He started working at his Mother's gym and was able to start learning Jiujitsu and Karate at a very young age. He decided to leave his small home town of Bonnyville at 21 years of age to get more MMA training and opportunities. He has now travelled the world to countries like Russia, Kazakstan, South Korea, Australia, England, Abu Dhabi and Dubai and of course the US and Canada to fight and pursue his MMA career. His adventures and jouney have shaped his life and career and we are glad that he has emerged as a great contender and he is a big success story from Canada.
We wish Tanner all the best in the future and really appreciate his valuable time. Thanks for tuning in as always!

Boxing #MMA #UFC #Fightnight # TannerBoser
This episode started with a discussion about the latest boxing event put on by Triller Fight Club. It was really Tiger King for boxing and is giving the sport another black eye. This event had more rappers and music acts than fights. It featured at least two guys that have never had a professional boxing match in their life. The sport of boxing has had enough bad events and incidents that have started to relegate it to a fringe sport in North America. This could have been an all time low. Jake Paul has somehow garnered a huge follwing on social media and somehow convinced Triller to make him the main event. This entire night was strange, weird and really felt pathetic and embarrasing. None of us should have watched it and all of us wished we hadn't once it was done.
The UFC on the other hand had another good fight card and we brokedown it at length. The Main event had the middleweight title challenger eliminator between Robert "Reaper" Whitaker facing Kelvin Gastellum. It was a one sided battle as "Bobby Knuckles" put himself back into the title picture in the middleweight division. His next opponent should be Israel Adesanya the belt holder and this rematch will be a can't miss matchup. We made a big announcement that Tanner Boser the current UFC Heavyweight contender would be a guest of the podcast next week and will appear on an upcoming episode. There were a lot of split decisions so close battles were the flavor of the evening. We had a lot of fun analysing the entire card from top to bottom.

NHL #Tradedeadline #NBA #BLM #UFC #NFL
We talked about Canada's unofficial holiday "NHL Trade Deadline Day". We like all Canadians were up at the crack of 5:00 AM to catch the big news. It was a relatively quiet day with only reportedly 16 deals involving 28 players and 16 draft picks. Once we got back to sleep and dissected the deals later and discussed a couple of trades. This sport is not exactly Jason's expertise so we got into discussing many others.
We received word that all games involiving Minnesota teams were being postponed because of another police shooting of a black man. Duante Wright a 20 year old black man was killed by the Minneapolis police after a traffic stop. This put an already charged up city on high alert and has led to an imposed 23 hour curfew on three local counties. The high profile court case of Derek Chauvin the former police officer who killed George Floyd is in full swing and tensions have been rising as the testimony continued. This is yet another horrible tragedy and has brought up the Black Lives Matter movement and systemic racism debate back to the forefront.
We discussed the NBA and the Golden State Warriors at great length as Steph Curry is set to break a huge record.
We talked a little NCAA and the NFL to close out the episode.

NCAA #MarchMadness #Gonzaga #Baylor #Stanford #Arizona #NBA #NFL #UFC
We capped a great Easter long weekend off with a great podcast episode breaking down the fantastic weekend of sports!
The most exciting moment of the weekend was the instant classic game in the NCAA college basketball semi final game between the Gonzaga Bulldogs and the UCLA Bruins. The score was close for the entire game with no team leading by more than six points. With the game in overtime UCLA hit a basket to tie it up at 90 with 3.3 seconds left when the ball was inbounded to Jalen Suggs. The Gonzaga guard ran down the floor and hoisted the ball up just past half and the ball banked off the glass and through the hoop to continue the undefeated season for the #1 team in the nation with the 93-90 victory. The shot propeled the Zags to the final against Baylor who has been the consensus #2 team in the nation this season. This has all the makings of an epic titanic battle for supremacy between the two best programs in 2021.
The womens NCAA basketball tournament was finished on Easter Sunday April 4th and was a huge ratings success. The final game featured the Stanford Cardinal facing the Arizona Wildcats and was another really close and tight battle right until the end. Stanford won the National Championship for the first time in 29 years with a 54 to 53 win that went down to the final seconds. This was a great and fun tournament and has greatly increased the popularity of the womens game with a lot of close games throughout.
The conversation switched to the NBA and we broke down a lot of the top stories that emerged over the last few days or week in the league.
We briefly mentioned the NFL and the big trade of Sam Darnold the Jets QB to the Carolina Panthers for three draft picks. This will open up New York to draft a top college QB in the draft #2 overall.
There was no UFC card this weekend but we looked ahead to next Saturdays card and the new addition of Kevin Holland replacing Darren Till in the main event against Marvin Vettori. The UFC has put together a trilogy fight between Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier for July. The much anticpated announcement for Francis Ngannou's first title defense of his Heavyweight belt has hit some contract difficulites and has dominated the UFC news this week. The majority of fans and media are clamoring for a huge clash with Jon "Bones" Jones but has hit big snags because of compensation and lack of money offered to the challenger. Watch and listen to our takes on the negotiations.

We brokedown the league and got into detail of the game between the New York Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays. The Jays took the opening game 3 to 2 in 10 innings. We showed some highlights and discussed the game and the season ahead for the two teams. Cory is a life long New York Mets fan and we went into the prospects of the team for the 2021 season. Francisco Lindor the Mets shortstop signed a 10 year $341 Million dollar contract on the eve of the season. It was the third largest money ever handed out and it was widely applauded by the baseball world. We discussed every division in both leagues and who are the probable front runners for the division titles and the wild card playoff spots.
We spent a lot of time breaking down the short abbreviated 20 game regular season schedule for the BC Hockey League. The league has put together 5 pods and will start these games starting April 2nd and will culminate in the end of the season in just over 5 weeks. Enjoy the discussion of the upcoming sprint to the playoffs.

UFC260 #UFCApex #AndNew #NBA #NCAA #MarchMadness #NFL
This Sunday edition of the Complete Sports Media podcast checks a lot of boxes.
The biggest box is AND NEW for the baddest man on the planet! Francis Ngannou won his rematch with the Heavyweight G.O.A.T. Stipe Miocic in brutal fashion as he knocked him out to rip the belt from his grasp and become the new UFC Heavyweight Champion of the World. We have some reaction videos from his hometown and one of his biggest supporters in Middleweight Champion Israel Adesanya. This sets up the newly crowned king with a possible superfight with the G.O.A,T of any weight class Jon "Bones " Jones. There was a twitter tirade from the former Light Heavyweight Champ Jones and it could harm the negotiations for this titanic battle. There were a lot of other great fights on the card and we break down the majority of them.
We spoke about the NBA trade deadline and the moves made and not consumated on Thursday, The Raptors sent Norm Powell to Portland for two players Gary Trent Jr. and Rodney Hood. The two teams faced each other three days later to immediately analyze the trade face to face. Portland came out on top 122 to 117 as the game was happening as we were recording this episode. The leader Kyle Lowry who is the G.R.O.A.T Greatest Raptor of all time wasn't dealt at the deadline as most of the world had speculated that he would be. There were other deals made that seemed to make the rich get richer in the Association. We broke down the trades and signings and had a lot of fun discussing them.
We completed the episode by talking about a few of the off season happenings in the NFL. The league wants to expand the schedule to 17 games and have worked out a new huge social media deal. The full extent of the agreements weren't released but the details were that it could be worth up to 100 billion dollars over 11 years.

NBA #ElginBaylor #Raptors #UFC #Apex #NFL #DeshaunWatson This was the best podcast we have ever done with Jason Cameron. We had a great flowing conversation and discussion of the weekend of sports.
This episode started with us speaking about the legend and Hall of Famer Elgin Baylor who passed away today at the age of 86. One of the greatest basketball players in history deserved a lot of great tributes and kudos for a life well lived. We showed a little clip of some of his career highlights and we spoke about his incredible basketball career. We talked about many other aspects of the Association and the Raptors at length.
The UFC had a great card that we went into great detail breaking down. The main event was Derek Brunson facing Kevin Holland and it was a very one sided match with Brunson dominating and taking the five round decision. There were two postponements from the card and we showed some clips of weight cutting troubles that led to one of the fights being pulled from the card.
We ended our conversation talking about the NFL and Deshaun Watson and the 13 lawsuits that have been filed against him this past week by women he has paid to give him massages. They have accused him of inappropriate conduct and harrasment etc. He has denied all of the accusations but it sure seems like it is going to be big trouble for him, the Texans and the NFL.

Allstargame
NFL
We are in day 10 of the latest 14 day quarantine. We had a great weekend consuming sports ansd especially the UFC 259 frpm Vegas and the NBA All Star game from Atlanta,
It was a historic card in the UFC as there were three title fights on the card. The first belt changed hands in one of the most controversial finishes in UFC history. Petr Yan the champ was disqualified and had to relinquish the strap when he delivered an illegal knee to the challenger Aljimain Sterling. This was the first Championship decided by a disqualification. The ending of that fight put a cloud over the rest of the event. The 2nd belt on the line pitted Champ Champ Amanda Nunes defending her Featherweight belt and it was really a non event as she swarmed Megan Anderson and forced her to tap to a submission 2:03
into the first round. The Lioness continued her dominance and adds to her legacy of the G.O.A.T. woman in combat sports history. The main event had Jan Blachowicz defending his Light Heavyweight crown against Middle Weight Title holder Israel Adesanya at the 205 division. Izzy was trying to be another Champ Champ but was overmatched and very widely outweighed and lost a decision to the Polish Power.
We broke down the NBA All Star game and the festivities surrounding the event. There was a lot of money raised and quite a bit of entertainment with this strange Covid world with no fans. Team Lebron beat team Durant handily 170 to 150 and Giannis Antetokounmpo won the MVP without missing a shot. He won the Kobe Bryant MVP award going 16 for 16 from the field with even a couple of three pointers. The other two stars were Steph Curry( 3 point shootout winner) with 31 points and Damian Lillard with 32 points himself. They were both 8 for 16 each from three point land and launched many of them from very very long distance. it is such a pleasure to watch both of them play and dial up from long distance.
We watched some footage from a new sport in Russia that has combined wrestling and rugby on a basketball court. It was crazy to watch and if you haven't seen it look up Rugball.
We finished up the episode by talking about the NFL and the biggest story of the day was the Dallas Cowboys signing of QB Dak Prescott to a 4 year $164 Million dollar deal. This contract makes him the second highest paid quarterback in thr league. We will see if it pays off for this team over the length of this huge contract.

If you are a fan of great conversation and baseball then this is an episode for you. Baseball and softball is played by 65 Million people worldwide in 140 different countries and 16 Million in the US.
We had Joey Myers the founder of the Hitting Performance Lab reach out and ask to be a guest. Joey is the author of four books on hitting and has helped thousands of kids and adults improve their hitting. The discussion started with Joey getting into the main principles of the Catapult Loading System whcih propelled his book into a bestseller on Amazon. He really explained in detail the techniques to drive the ball farther.
Joey is from Fresno, California which is located in the central part of the state. Fresno is known for many things but baseball is in the lifeblood of the city. There are many reasons for the incredible hotbed it has always been. In no particular order great weather, top coaching, amazing programs are all keys to the pipeline of talent. Great players such as Tom Seaver, Bobby Bonds, Bobby Cox, Matt Garza among many others originated from Fresno. California "The Golden State" has produced the most major leaguers in history with over 2300 players making the big leagues. There were 24 Hall of fame players with Barry Bonds, Ted Williams, Randy Johnson and Tom Seaver topping the list. Joey and his lab are going to continue to keep California producing great talent and we are hopng that his reach can now spread across the continent.
The baseball talk turned to Canadian ball and 255 players have made major league rosters from the Great White North. Some of the top players were spoke about like Larry Walker, Ferguson Jenkins, Joey Votto, Justin Morneau, Mike Soroka, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and James Paxton were all brought up. There are only five MLB teams that draft the majority of Canadians and those teams were brought up. Both Joey and Darren are hoping to increase the number of Canadians that will progress to the pros in the future.
The technical aspects and in depth detail were great to listen to and start to understand. We at Complete Sports Media highly recommend the books and the Hitting Performance Lab for coaches, parents and individuals that want to improve their hitting.
We finished the conversation by discussing the cheating scandal, steroids and the best hitting coach of all time. It was a really enjoyable way to end a fun and interesting talk about baseball and Joey Myers life's work.

MLB #NFL #Aaronrodgers #Packers #Worldofwalley
This was a fun conversation with an emerging podcast legend William Walley. He created the World of Walley podcast just over a year ago and it has really been taking off in popularity. William reached out to the Complete Sports Media team and asked to be a guest to talk about sports and tell us some great life stories.
We had a great time discussing the opening of spring training baseball and his love of the National Pastime. He had serious dreams of a MLB career until an accident derailed those dreams. This unfortunate accident never diminished his love for the sport and he waxed poetic of the greatness of the game.
He also is a football fan and his story of meeting Aaron Rodgers the quarterback of his favorite team the Green Bay Packers is really fun to listen to! We are very happy that this turned out to be such a fun podcast and Walley is now a friend of the show! Thanks for watching and listening as usual.

UFC258 #MMA #Champ #NBA
We had a great Family Day weekend and Valentines day in the middle. We watched the fights on the UFC 258 card live with our regular MMA analyst Jason Cameron. It added another great dimension to our analysis and breakdown. We made plans to do a live podcast episode on March 6th for UFC 259. This card featured the Championship title fight in the welterweight division as the Champion Kamara Usman defended his belt against Gilbert Burns. Usman weathered an early onslaught from Burns and dispatched him from the fight only 34 seconds into round 3. He proved that he is an elite talent. Jason and our host Darren both agreed that he shoud not be considered on the level of Georges St. Pierre yet and wil have to win for another year or two to be in the conversation. We broke down the entire card and had great takes on many tight battles.
The conversation turned to the NBA and the latest stories to emerge from the Association.

NHL #Suomi #Finland #Roxy #Vancouver #Fun
Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Have a great time with your loved ones in your bubble around the planet!
We have done over a hundred podcasts and they are getting better and better all the time and we have reached a new level with this latest episode! Our host Darren Campbell welcomed a very special guest on Valentine's Day! Vesa Rantanen is the Sports editor for a Finnish weekly sports paper and daily sports website called Ilta-Sanomat. They met when they were both covering the NHL and great long lasting friendship was started 25 years ago. It was fun getting ready for the episode and even more fun watching and listening to the conversation.
These two have so many fun and interesting stories it was a blast to sit back and let them reminisce and let them discuss hockey then and now! Vesa was reluctant to do a podcast that involved talking about the latest goings on in the NHL as he is not following the league like he used to. He was convinced that it would be a great idea if we could talk about a couple of big recent developments of Finnish hockey players and discuss the past. There is insder information and takes on that Mikko Koivu retirement that just took place this past Tuesday and the benching of Patrick Laine the following day as Columbus was a big focal point for Finnish hockey this week.
The talk ended up turning to the past and the best Finnish players who have ever lived. The list of players discussed was special as Hall of Famers Jarri Kurri and Teemu Sellanne took centre stage. They both agreed that the best Finnish defenseman in history Jyrki Lumme deserves to be in the Canucks ring of honor as one of if not the best defenseman to ever suit up for the team. Don Baizley the super agent one of the most prominent figures in Finnish and North American hockey became a friend of Vesa's and some great stories were uncovered. We feel like the past and present was covered perfectly and is such a fun conversation to witness and listen to. There is a real connection with these long time friends and colleagues and it comes across very significantly in this hour.
If you are a regular viewer or listener thank you for your continued support and if you are looking in for the first time you will not be dissapointed in taking the time to take it in.
We can only hope that Vesa will give us some more time and we can give you more insight into his life and so many great stories that he has from a life well lived!

NFL #SuperBowl #GOAT #UFC #NBA
We had a great breakdown of the Super Bowl. Tom Brady has solidified his place as G.O.A.T. (greatest of all time) as he led the Tampa Bay Bucs to the 31 to 9 victory over the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs. There was so much to breakdown and it was fun to discuss. The biggest factor in the blowout win was the Buccaneers defense that had KC quarterback Patrick Mahomes running for his life the entire game. This game was supposed to be the GOAT(Brady) against his heir apparent baby goat (Mahomes) but it really was a one sided game. Jason is like many football fans and analysts who have just become sick of the continued success of Tom Brady and he pulled no punches in his breakdown. There was so many aspects, interesting facts and discussion points that it was great to have Jason join us to put a wrap on this unprecedented season.
We brokedown UFC Fightnight Vegas 18. This was a heavyweight battle of Titans Alexander "Drago" Volkov vs Alistair"The Demolition Man Overeem. There was a lot of great fights on the card and we went over in detail to all of them.
We dissected the latest top stories for the NBA and went over the standings in some detail to see the most intriguing stories from the past week.

NFL #Superbowl #UFC257 #NBA #Covid
This was the best most fun conversation that Jason and Darren have ever had in this platform.
The discussion started with our host talking about breaking news! He was only joking but was talking about Matt Lafleur getting fired for his terrible call kicking a late field goal in the NFC Championship game instead of going for a touchdown. The Green Bay Packers are licking their wounds today and everyone is questioning their play calling not trusting Aaron Rodgers in the most crucial moment of the game and season. It is an amazing exchange and it has so many funny elements to the conversation. The Conference championships were both intriguing matchups and eventually had the two best teams emerge victorious and will now face each other in the Super Bowl in two weeks on February 7th. The Tampa Bay Bucs were able to assemble a great team and convince the G.O.A.T. Tom Brady to come and lead them to the playoffs and the Super Bowl. This franchise had fallen on hard times recently and now will be the first team to play the title game in their hometown. This will be Super Bowl 55 and it has been played in 25 different venues and never has a home team been able to be there in the end. This will be Tom Brady's 10th Super Bowl appearance and he will be gunning for his unprecedented 7th ring. They will be facing a formidable opponent in the defending Champion Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes. The Chiefs quite easily beat the Cinderella story Buffalo Bills to advance to their second straight Suoer Bowl. The Chiefs have also assembled an incredible array of talent and Travis Kelce and Tyreek Hill both had monster games to cap off stellar seasons. This is the perfect matchup and has all of the earmarks of an epic game. We can't wait for this battle!
We turned our attention to a wrap up breakdown of the years first UFC pay per view UFC 257. The main event was a lightweight titanic battle between Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor. The Irishman was coming off a year layoff and had only been in the cage for 40 seconds the last time. Dustin "Diamond" Poirier had been taking all the top fighters in the division and was sharp and was trying to avenge a defeat at the hands of McGregor 6 years earlier. The first round was probably in McGregors favor but Dustin really beat up the lead leg of Conor with calf kicks. He eventually caught him with a shot that stunned him and he didn't give him a chance as he swarmed him and sent Conor to the canvas reeling from the first knockout loss of his career. It was a massive earth shattering event and changed the course of history. We speculated on what is next for both of the combatants and for the division and sport. We brokedown all of the fights on the card and talked about what is coming next for the organization.
Our podcast culminated with some NBA talk and the most important topics of the past week. It was a lot of fun to get into discussing some of the main goings on in the association.

UFC #NFL #NBA #MLK #BLM
We had such a great weekend watching the UFC, NFL and the NBA that we couldn't wait until we could break them down!
It was fun discussing one of the best main event performances ever from Max Holloway! He put on an incredible display of relentless punching combinations setting more records in a huge decisive victory. Calvin Kattar showed so much heart in surviving the onslaught of 750 punches in 25 minutes. Holloway put himself back into title contention with this masterful display of skill and volume. The co-main event pitted two veteran warriors that had been scheduled to fight on at least 2 occasions previously. Carlos"The Natural Born Killer" Condit was able to win a decision over Matt "The Immortal" Brown. It was a highly entertaining war that made everyone wish that the earlier matchups between the two had happened in the past. This was a very anticipated card after a three week hiatus through the holidays. It was a great night of fights from Abu Dhabi.
Our discussion turned to the NFL as four great matchups turned 8 teams into 4 left standing to try and battle it out for the Conference Championships.
The Tampa Bay Bucs and Tom Brady beat Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints 30 to 20. Tampa's defense was the difference as they forced four turnovers in the win.
They will be heading to Green Bay for the NFC title game against the Packers who had a huge 32 to 18 win over the LA Rams. Aaron Rodgers was the star and catalyst as he threw 2 TDs and ran one in himself as he backed up an possible MVP regular season with a terrific playoff performance.
The defending Super Bowl Champs the Kansas City Chiefs held off the Cleveland Browns 22 to 17 despite losing QB Patrick Mahomes to a possible concussion. The hero turned out to be 13 year veteran backup Chad Henne who had never appeared in a playoff game prior to Sunday. They advance to host the third consecutive AFC Championship game next Sunday.
The Bills utilized a tough defense and great game from top receiver Stefon Diggs to dominate the Baltimore Ravens 17 to 3. Ravens QB and former MVP Lamar Jackson made a critical error throwing a 101 yard pick six interception. Lamar later on was then put into concussion protocol himself and had to miss the rest of the game.
We finished off talking about the massive James Harden four team trade and the impact it has on the NBA. We finished off the night discussing Luca Doncic who has been amazing everyone and he continues to impress as he passed the Legend Michael Jordan in triple doubles over the weekend.

NFL #SuperWildcard #weekend #NBA
We had a blast watching the NFL Super wildcard weekend and then so much fun breaking it down. Jason Cameron was able to offer his great perspective and incredible insight as the NFL narrowed the field from 14 to 8. The games were entertaining and full of drama.
Buffalo won a nail biter 30 to 27 over the Indianapolis Colts. Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs were the key to their huge win. The Bills mafia was loud and thrilled getting their first playoff win since 2004.
Lamar Jackson threw the Ravens on his back and ran them to victory 20 to 13 over the Titans. The Ravens have to be congratulated for their handling of the rushing leader king Derrick Henry who only ran for 40 yards on Sunday a season low.
The Cleveland Browns had the football gods smiling on them as they roared out to a huge lead and held off the Pittsburgh Steelers 48 to 37. The Steelers coughed up the ball 5 times and were not able to outscore all of their mistakes. The long suffering Browns fans got to cheer on their teams first playoff win sonce 1994.
The Saints used an incredible defensive effort to beat the overmatched Chicago Bears 20 to 9. Drew Brees, Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas were the offensive stars as usual and shined bright for the Saints.
Tampa Bay won their first playoff game since 2003 behind Tom Brady and their explosive offense as they downed the Washington football team 31 to 23.
The LA Rams pulled off the biggest upset of the weekend as they won 30 to 20 on the road against the Seattle Seahawks. There were no fans in the stands so the home field advantage wasn't a factor in this one. It was the Hawks first loss at home since 2004 a string of ten consecutive wins ever since. Enjoy all of the breakdowns!
The divisional matchups are now solidified.
The NFC has the #1 seed Green Bay Packers hosting the #6 seed LA Rams.
The # 2 seed New Orleans Saints will play host to the #5 seed Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The AFC has their #1 seed Kansas City Chiefs hosting the #6 seed Cleveland Browns.
The #2 seed Buffalo Bills host the #5 seed Baltimore Ravens.
We look forward to all four games next weekend!
We discussed a lot of aspects of the NBA that is having a huge amount of troubles with Covid-19 outbreaks that have led to postponements and teams very undermanned.
Take care, Love yah, Bye for now!
NHL #NorthDivision #Canucks
We welcomed in Dale Cory to preview the NHL shortened 56 game season that starts this week.
The teams are now all in newly aligned divisions and will be facing their rivals 8 to 10 times each if they can pull off the entire season. Our discussion was centered a lot on the all Canadian "Scotiabank" North Division. The league decided they didn't want any cross border games so put all seven teams north of the border in their own division. This will help further any rivalries and actually should increase them exponentially. This division will be ultra competitive and with only four of seven teams making the playoffs most every game will be very important.
Every team undergoes changes in every off season and we talked specifically about the Vancouver Canucks and the loss of some free agents. The team made some acquisitions and promoted some younger players in the organization to fill the holes. They decided to part ways with their MVP of last season goalie Jacob Markstrom and he signed a six year $36 million dollar deal in Calgary which has been there biggest rival for much of their history. They also lost defenceman Chris Tanev and Left winger Josh Leivo also to the Flames. The new faces with the Canucks are Nate Schmidt defenceman from the Vagas Golden Knights, Braden Holtby former Stanley Cup qinning goalie from Washington and Travis Hamonic the d-man from Calgary. Nils Hoglander the highly touted right winger from Sweden will suit up on the second line to start the season.

NFL #Playoffs #NBA #Boxing #UFC
This was our first podcast episode of 2021.
We broke down the final week of the NFL regular season and previewed the playoffs. There are 14 of 32 teams that made the dance and there are a lot of intriguing matchups. This was a crazy Covid 19 football season that has had so many ups and downs and chaos and it was miraculous that they completed the 17 week regular season.
The NBA entered into its third week and a lot of storylines emerged and we discussed a lot of them. There were so many interesting developments with a lot the the top end talent in the association. We were recording the day after Steph Curry went off for 62 points in a huge statement game against Portland. The Blazers had beat the Warriors on Christmas Day by 25 points and so Golden State got some measure of revenge. Steph had received a lot of criticism for his play and his teams performance in the first few games of the year. He used those comments to fuel his fire and prove that he still is the best shooter in NBA history.
Boxing took a little spotlight over the weekend as Ryan Garcia continues to show his power and skill as he TKO'ed Luke Campbell in the 7th round. Garcia survived a second round knockdown and finished off Campbell with a brutal left hook to the body. The great up and comer is now 21-1 in his career and had never been dropped but really took it to Campbell after. He controlled the fight with superior hand speed and accuracy. Campbell was no joke of an opponent as he was the 2012 Olympic Gold Medallist and has twice challenged for lightweight titles. Boxing is having a resurgence recently with a lot of great young fighters that Jason talked about.
This was a fun podcast and you will enjoy the conversation.

Boxing #Dad #Halloffame #Olympics #Medalist
This is the second segment from our podcast conversation with Canadian boxing legend Dale Walters.
This one starts with speaking about his father Len Walters who was a Canadian boxing legend in his own right. Dale showed off pictures of his Dad that he has framed in his house. Len forged an incredible career and was 139 - 10 as an amateur and 14-4 as a pro. He won 4 BC championships, 2 National Canadian titles, the US amateur featherweight title and competed in the Olympics. He was on the undercard of the Joe Louis fight in Vancouver. Len was inducted into the BC Sports Hall of Fame in 1995. Those shoes were obviously very hard to fill for Dale but at an early age he set out to reach and even surpass his Dad's achievements. Dale was 165-12 won 3 BC championships, 5 Canadian National titles, he went to the Commonwealth and Pan American games before he went to the 1984 Olympics. Dale was included on the undercard of the Muhammad Ali fight in Vancouver against George Chuvalo because his Dad had been on the Joe Louis card years earlier. Dale has a great story of meeting "The Greatest" and also has pictures of that momentous occasion.
At the Olympics Dale won Canada's first boxing medal in 52 years as he won the bronze and did so in very dramatic fashion. The last guy to win that medal was Horace "Lefty" Gwynne in the same bantamweight division and also in Los Angeles. Gwynne was at the bout that Dale won his medal and was honoured before and after. Dale was part of arguably Canada's greatest assembled Olympic boxing team with Sean O'Sullivan, Willie Dewitt and Lennox Lewis among others. Dale initially was unhappy with winning the bronze medal but was treated like a National hero upon his return to Canada and the partying started and lasted a while. He eventually embraced his accomplishment and likes sharing great stories from his Olympic experience.
Dale talked at length of the honour of both his and his Father's induction into the BC Sports Hall of Fame as probably the biggest of his life. He invited his first ever sponsor Sev Morin who owned a night club, restaurant and banquet Hall to come to the induction ceremony and recognized him during his speech. He wanted to give payback to some those who were instrumental in helping him achieve all that he had in his career. Keep your eye out over the holidays for a couple more segments on our great chat with Dale.

Halloffame #Olympian #Brawlforitall #Boxing
This first clip of many after a lengthy conversation this one is focused on the Dale Walters vs Tony Pep fight! We had a fantastic conversation on this latest podcast episode with a boxing legend. Dale Walters joined us via Zoom and we had a really long chat about many topics in his life. We want to post this in segments so it is easier to consume by watching or listening to. This is the first post on big moments from his life story that has been a life well lived! This first segment clip is discussing his ongoing feud with Tony Pep and ""The Brawl For It All" which was the epic fight between the two bitter rivals. Dale has just posted his breakdown of the fight today on his facebook page and it is an incredible read. He has started to give some great first hand accounts of most of the big moments in his boxing career by regular Wednesday posts. Give them a read it has been so great to watch and read about. Our podcast episode and the chat we have with him kind of piggy backs this and allows some different insight in video and audio form. We suggest that you watch this and also find the fight on Youtube and check it out as it is one of the most entertaining fights in history. It has become so legendary and you can see what Dale is talking about.
I think our only wish is that this fight would have happened about a year or two later in history. Dale is such a great guy and ambassador for Canada, B.C., Vancouver and Burnaby that it would have been great to see a more favorable outcome for this fan favorite. With a few more 10 or 12 round fights Dale could have a chance to be able to handle the distance a bit better. In this instance the villian won the fight but Dale has gone on to do many great things in life. We are all lucky that he was born and raised here and stayed here to continue to give back to his community that helped him on his journey to the top of the world.
We suggest that you find Dale on Facebook and social media and follow his posts to see so many of his accomplishments broken down and given unprecendented insight into a very successful boxing career. Please go to www.dalewaltersboxing.com for more details on his life and what he is up to now.

NFL #NBA #UFC
This breakdown was especially fun as the NFL is getting more intense as the season winds dfown, the NBA is back and the UFC had arguably the best card of the year.
Week 14 iof the NFL is winding down and the contenders are definitely emerging as the playoff picture is taking shape, The Chiefs and Steelers are on top of the AFC as the Bills, Titans, Browns and Colts are the second tier but not too far behind. In the NFC the Packers and the Saints are on top with the Rams, Seahawks and Bucs rounding out the elite teams in the conference. There were a lot of great games that we brokedown that you must watch to get the picture of this weekends action.
The NBA is back from the shortest offseason(71 days) in league history by many months. Preseason action got underway this weekend and had flashes of the stars but was really a way for the coaches to see the eintire expanded rosters. Enjoy watching some more preseason games as the regular season starts on December 22nd.
The UFC 256 was one of if not the best fight card of the year 2020. The main event was definitely the best flyweight battle in history as the Champion Deiveson Figueiredo defended his belt against the #1 contender Brandon Moreno in a five round war. The fight ended in a majority draw decision and should set up a rematch as soon as both fighters recover from their injuries. In the Co-main event the lightweight division featured #7 ranked Charles Oliviera who had the most impressive performance of his career in a dismantling of #3 ranked Tony Ferguson. Kevin Holland became only the 3rd fighter in modern UFC history to record 5 wins in a calendar year as he KO'ed Jacare Souza. The knockout will be on highlight reels for years and years to come as he started it on the bottom. The other impressive aspect of that is that this winning streak has been done in only 7 months when he finally got the call to the big show. Holland is fun, tough and entertaining and might even fight next week as he called out Kamzat Chimaev who was supposed to fight on next weeks card. The entire card was stacked and had so many great battles that made it a great evening as there is only one more fight card in 2020.

This was a fun weekend breakdown of sports even though we are still dealing with the pandemic. Covid 19 is getting worse all over North America and is impacting everyones lives. The sporting world is not immune and it affects it daily like it permeates every facet of society.
We went into great detail of week 13 of the NFL. There was a shocking upset of the Seattle Seahawks who were 8 and 3 heading into a battle with the New York Giants who were 4 and 7. The G men won 17 to 12 to get their fourth straight victory and solidify their spot as top in the NFC East. This was the first win for any NFC East team over an opponent who was over .500 on the season. The top of the NFC West was Seattle's alone before this game and now the Rams are the front runner as they beat the Arizona Cardinals 38 to 28. The other upset of the weekend was Cleveland beating the Tennessee Titans 41 to 35 to push their record to 9 and 3 for the firt time since 1994. It was the Browns first four game winning streak since 2009. There was a lot of great games and a great breakdown of the week.
The NBA was discussed briefly as we talked about the trade of Russell Westbrook from Houston to Washington for John Wall. It was probably a good deal for both teams especially if Wall is able to bounce back from his long term injury troubles. We talked about the impact Covid is already having on the league as there have been 52 positive Covid tests already in the association. It led to the Portland Trailblazers shutting down their facility after 4 positive test results happened today.
The UFC Vegas 16 took place on Saturday and the main event was an amazing tough 5 round battle in the Middleweight division. It was #4 ranked Jack Hermansson against #12 ranked Marvin Vettori in an all out war. The Italian Dream Vettori had a decisive victory winning 4 of 5 rounds and getting his hand raised with a unanimous decision. He should be ranked now in the top 5 and could be in line for another crack at the champ Israel Adesanya again after just one more convincing win. The rest of the card was impacted as two fights were postponed because of Covid and another cancelled at the last minute.
The combat sports continued on Saturday as the huge A T & T stadium in Arlington, Texas was host to boxing. The main event was a fight for the WBC and IBF World Welterweight Championships between the Champ Errol Spence Jr. and Danny Garcia. Spence stayed near the top of the best pound for pound discussion with a dominating victory that was very anticlimatic. Spence used a lethal jab to get the seemingly easy victory. This sets up a titanic battle with Terrence "Bud" Crawford to finally unify the best division in boxing. Enjoy our breakdown of the card and the discussion of the future of the sport.

We had a great conversation about Football, UFC and boxing and unfortunately Covid as tons of positive tests have continued to wreak havoc.
The NFL week 12 has been getting crazy with Covid and it has led to games being postponed and teams taking the field severely undermanned. It has become a bit of a farce and the season is in jeopardy.
The UFC main event was cancelled and the main events have kept being affected by the virus. Anthony "Lionheart" Smith won the new main event with a submission victory over Devin"Brown Bear" Clark.
Speaking of farces the legends card was a bit of one. We really respect Mauro Ranallo, Sugar Ray Leonard, and Israel Adesanya who called the fight card. It is just not great when two 50 something guys are headlining a fight card. It was not something to celebrate and we hope that they won't put on to many more of these tyoe of cards. We discussed next weeks very intriguing and excting boxing card with the Main event being Errol Spence Jr. against Danny Garcia. This is the kind of fight we want to witness and break down.

NFL #NBA #UFC
This was a really fun conversation as Jason Cameron used his quarantine time to really watch weekend sports more intently than ever!
We spoke about the great week 11 of the NFL. There were so many close games that could have been the best weekend of the year.
As the NBA free agency and signing period was in full swing there was so many things to discuss. Huge signings were the biggest topics this week. Training camps open next week after the shortest offseason in league history.
The UFC has set records for having an event so many weekends in a row and they continue to porduce great cards. UFC 255 had title fights in both the mens and womens flyweight divisions. Deiveson Figueiredo defended his belt winning in less than two minutes by guillotine choke over Alex Perez. In the Co-main event Valentina Shevchenko got a unanimous decision victory over Jennifer Maia to retain her belt. The rest of the card had a lot of great fights and we broke them all down.

NHL #NFL #MLS #WHL
Well this was quite the day for the Complete Sports Media team. We welcomed an old friend into our podcast today for the first time and he became one of our favorite guests of all time. Greg Kettner is a corporate speaker located in Walla Walla, Washington that focuses his message on trying to impliment humor into peoples lives at work. Greg is a really special guy in the world today and he wants to make the world laugh for the numerous benefits. He knows that laughter is good for work productivity, health and well being, and last but not least enjoyment of life! He went in pursuit of his goals and dreams by making people laugh across North America for six years in a stand up comedy career! This eventually led to his highly sought after coporate speaking engagements that have received incredibly high praise and testimonials!
Our host Darren Campbell has known Greg for many, many years and was able to book some time in his valuable and busy schedule to have a great conversation. Greg is an amazing storyteller and is a very funny guy. We especially loved the Wayne Gretzky stories that were shared between the two of them. There was also a crazy story involving Robin Williams and the Queen that weaved between fantasy and reality that made us laugh in the studio. There were a bunch of other interesting stories that are so entertaining to watch and listen to. This episode had many lifechanging moments that are inspiring and amazing to hear about.
We talked a little about Walla Walla and the vineyards and a couple sporting legends that are from that community. Drew Bledsoe former QB of the New England Patriots is running his family winery there called Doubleback. The other guy we mentioned was Eddie "The King" Feigner a legend in the world of Mens softball. He eventually led a touring team called "The King and his Court" and they played over ten thousand games in over 100 countries. They ended up compiling incredible records 9,743 wins, and Feigner had 141,517 strikeouts, 930 no hitters,and 238 perfect games. They didn't have a team like the Washington Generals they actually played local select softball teams that were gunning to beat the legends. The other incredible aspect of this team was that it was a four man "team" consisting of Eddie the pitcher and catcher a first baseman and a shortstop.
This was such a great episode and we hope that it reinvigorates your life as much as it did to our lives. If you have a company contact Greg and book him to come in and inspire your employees you will so happy that you did! Thank you so much Greg for sharing your stories and insight into your life!

NFL #NBA #Boxing #UFC
We had a fantastic podcast episode that covered many sports like a blanket! Jason Cameron is always a fun guest and a pleasure to chat with and break down the weekend of sports.
Our first sport we dove into was the NFL and week 10 had a lot of things to discuss. There was a report of Drew Brees fracturing five ribs and suffering a collapsed lung from a sack. The report suggested he would be out of action 2-3 weeks at minimum which made us laugh at how short of a recovery time that seemed. The contenders and pretenders are really starting to reveal themselves and it was fun to discuss every matchup.
The NBA free agency period started with a bit of a flurry as there were some signings and trades consumated on Monday. The biggest deal had Chris Paul getting traded from the Thunder to the Phoenix Suns for a bunch of players highlighted by Kelly Oubre and Ricky Rubio and a 2022 first round draft pick. The Thunder also dealt Dennis Schroder to the Lakers probably signalling an end to Kyle Kuzma and maybe even Rajon Rondo in LaLa land. James Harden declined his contract option with Houston and has supposedly asked to be traded to the Brooklyn Nets or the Philadelphia 76ers. The next month or so is going to be interesting and fun to watch.
We had a short conversation about the big Top Rank boxing card held on Saturday as Terrence "Bud" Crawford knocked out Kell Brook in the fourth round. It was a highlight reel KO and if you haven't seen it find it and watch the spectacular punch that ended the night! The UFC had fight night Vegas 14 and we brokedown the entire card. The main event had Rafael Dos Anjos facing Paul "The Irish Dragon" Felder which turned out to be a great fight. There were a lot of great performances and you should stick around and listen to our fun breakdown.

Masters #PGA #BCHL #MLB
We had a great conversation with Dale Cory discussing the Masters golf tournament, junior hockey and MLB.
It was fun to talk about a historic Masters that was held 7 months late in front of almost no patrons. Dustin Johnson set a bunch of records as he lead wire to wire and shot a record -20 268 as he was able to win and put on the green jacket for the first time. It was a really fun breakdown as we dove into so many of the story lines that emerged over the four days.
We talked at length about junior hockey and the Okanagan cup that just wrapped up this weekend with the Penticton Vees taking the title over the Vernon Vipers. They played 12 games and it culminated in a 3 to 2 win in overtime. It was a great tourney and the Vees won 11 of 12 to really gain confidence as the regular season starts on December 4th.
We then spoke about the huge hiring in MLB as Kim Ng became the first woman named a General Manager in Major league baseball taking over the Florida Marlins. Her resume is incredibly impressive as she was part of the Dodgers and Yankees organizations in various capacities and the league office for a decade. Way to go Kim and kudos to Derek Jeter and the Marlins organization. An incredible milestone and trailblazer achieving her dream job after being one of the hardest working people in the sport.

This is a milestone podcast as we broke at least a couple of records and probably multiple milestones. In the early stages of the episode our host Darren Campbell gets into the details on the life accomplishment records Jeff Meszaros would have set in the history of this podcast! When you watch and listen please let us know if we were correct in our assessment.
There is a short intro from Darren but thankfully Jeff gets into much greater detail on his colorful life history. He talks about being a long time martial arts practitioner(36 years and counting), a Jiu Jitsu instructor, a long time radio guy, and MMA journalist among other things. Jeff Wombat Meszaros is a pioneer starting with the early days of underground forums that is now www.mixedmartialarts.com . Those early days were also the first years of the internet and they were basically chat groups for the MMA enthusiasts. The Wombat had funny takes and got a name for himself that started leading to more opportunities. Arnold Lim who had a website called MMA ring report asked Jeff to write UFC predictions for the site. This opened doors and Jeff smashed them down and started to become a well known and respected MMA journalist. He wrote for numerous fight magazines with humor, wit and unprecedented insight to the combat world. This eventually led to a once in a lifetime opportunity with BodogTV to be a fulltime travelling MMA reporter. He was sent by them all over the world to cover mixed martial arts events. He had been working full time in the radio business and was a part time writer for MMA. He quit radio and jumped at the chance to make this hobby become his career.
You really have to listen and watch to the rest of the podcast to hear the stories and gain insight to a great life well lived. Thank you Jeff for a small piece of your valuable time and for sharing stories and reflection on the first few chapters of your life! We talked for almost two hours and have condensed this down to less than an hour but plan on publishing a few more shorter segments over the coming days. It would be nice to have Jeff as a semi regular guest as well because he has a lifetime of stories that should be shared again. He also is continuing to give a lot to his community by teaching jiu jitsu to many people that get the huge benefits of training in martial arts.
Thanks again Jeff!

The UFC was highlighted by some "old guys" getting massive victories in UFC Vegas 13. Glover Texeira and Andrei Arlovski were the first two over forty year olds to win both the main and co-main fights on the same card in UFC history.

NFL #NBA #UFC
This is a really fun breakdown of the Halloween weekend in sports.
The NFL has reached the halfway mark despite the global pandemic and the out of control Covid crisis. There have been positive tests but the NFL just keeps chugging along. It was fun to discuss all of the division rival games and being on the eve of the trading deadline we had deals to break down,
We briefly talked about the NBA and specifically about the hiring of Mike D'Antoni to be the assistant coach of the Brooklyn Nets. Steve Nash had Mike as his coach in Phoenix when he was the two time MVP of the NBA and he returned the favor by hiring him. It was a great move and we both agreed it was going to be fun for the team and league.
The UFC had another card and another retirement of one of the G.O.A.T.'s of the sport. Last week it was Khabib Nurmagamedov and this week it was Anderson "The Spider" Silva. The 45 year old living legend finally is appearing in the Octagon for the last time. We brokedown the entire card from this past weekend and the upcoming one.

UFC254 #G.O.A.T. #Khabib #NFL
We had a great conversation breaking down the UFC 254 that featured Khabbib Nurmagomedov getting a huge victory and then subsequently retired. His complete dominance of Justin Gaethje in this lightweight title fight was surprising to most. Khabib's father Abdulmanap died in July from complications related to Covid-19 at 57 years old. He was Khabib's long time coach and trainer among many other top fighters. Once the fight was over he took off his gloves and said that he had promised his mother that he was going to retire now his dad was gone. We had a lot of fun getting into this fight and the rest of a great card.
We brokedown week 7 of the NFL which featured a great battle of two unbeaten teams in the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Tennessee Titans, It was a tale of two halfs as the Steelers dominated early and then the Titans flipped the script and almost came all the way back. They would have forced overtime if their kicker Stephen Gostkowski would have nailed the 47 yard field goal at the end of the game. We also broke down the incredible NFC West battle between Seattle and Arizona that was an overtime shootout. It was a nationally televised late Sunday game and had an incredible amount of amazing plays and when the Cards finally hit a field goal late in overtime to hand the Hawks their first loss of the season. There was a lot of things to discuss in the other matchups as well.
We ended the episode giving kudos and our condolensces to David Braley the long time owner and interim commissioner in the CFL just passed away at 79 years old. He was a legend and owned the BC. LIons for 24 years and also owned the Hamilton Tiger Cats and Toronto Argos at different times. He will be sorely missed from football in this country.

In order to survive the new world we live in we all need to have things to look forward to. We also need excitement and passion and sports can deliver all of these things.
This past weekend the boxing world garnered a lot of attention with the big fight between Vasyl Lomachenko vs Teofimo Lopez. There were four title belts on the line in the 135lb lightweight division. There was an upset and it was a great fight.
We got into discussing week six of the NFL and all of the great games and storylines that came out this past weekend.
It was a great breakdown of the UFC Fight Night with the main event between Brian "Tcity" Ortega vs Chang Sung Jung " The Korean Zombie" It was an incredible performance by Ortega and the Zombie added more legend to his life story.

This is another fantastic weekend wrapup of the world of sports.
We discussed the NBA finally crowning a champion in the bubble. Lebron James has restored the championship pedigree to the historic Lakers organization and was able to deliver their 17th NBA title. It was fun to breakdown the longest season in NBA history and how magical the playoffs seemeed.
Check out Head Coach Frank Vogel on David Letterman as a ten year old kid https://youtu.be/4v5fndP7ELY
We talked about the NFL who continues even though they had to reschedule another 8 games because of Covid-19 positive tests. The Seattle Seahawks were the first up to talk about. The Canadian wide receiver Chase Claypool from Abbotsford had a game to remember with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Canadian Thanksgiving weekend. The rookie scored 4 touchdown himself on the receiving and one rushing score. Jason who also calls Abbotsford his hometown was heaping high praise on the the emerging star. We broke down all of the games on the schedule.
The conversation turned to this past weekends UFC fight card from Abu Dhabi's fight island. It is quickly becoming known as the card of the spinning knockouts. Both Cody Sandhagen and Joaquin Buckley had incredible finishes that were great to witness. Buckley had one of the greatest KO's in history.

The UFC had another great card headlined by a masterful performance by Holly Holm. Another fighter from the same fight camp in Albuquerque, New Mexico got a huge win that was very crucial for him.

This is a shorter version of the life story of Brandon Wong. As a lot of you know this is one of the nicest people in hockey and had a lot of stops and has made so many great connections. With a career that started in minor hockey in BC, Canada then into junior and the BCHL off to college and then to pro hockey. He has played for and represented 21 organizations very well and he has had a very adventurous journey. He played over 400 professional games over 9 seasons in over 8 different countries. We had an amazing and lengthy conversation with him and posted the full version the other day. This episode is just focusing on some of the highlights on his junior, college and pro stops.

Jason Cameron does such an excellent job at watching sports and breaking them down that he can help you absorb sports at the highest level.
We spent the first half of this podcast breaking down the second week of the NFL. The marquee game of the early schedule was the one point victory 40-39 as Dallas edged Atlanta. It was a nail biter that was an epic 20 point comeback by the Cowboys as they eventually recovered an onside kick that led to the winning field goal. Dak Prescott was huge throwing for 450 yards and 1 touchdown and running the ball 5 times for 3 touchdowns himself!!! We really got into talking about every game over the day and had a lot of fun discussing the matchups.
We broke down the NBA's conference finals in both the East and the West. We started with the series between the LA Lakers and the Denver Nuggets. The Lake show got first blood as they posted a big win in game one. It was a dominating win and all 12 guys on LA's roster scored in this game as there was plenty of garbage time. Denver can be excused as they would definitely have been tired as they had two 7 game series back to back. We will see if todays game turns out better for them. In the Eastern Conference they have already had three games. Miami is up two games to one after winning the first two. Boston got a huge lift as Gordon Hayward came back from injury and it seemed to give them that spark they needed. Jason Tatum was dominant in victory scoring 25 points, getting 14 rebounds and 8 assists. The Celtics also had Kemba Walker, Marcus Smart and Jaylen Brown all score 20 or more.
We then dissected the UFC Fight Night headlined by Colby Covington dominating Tyron Woodley. The fight was really a one sided affair as Woodley again failed to pull the trigger and was outstruck and out classed. The Co-Main event was a great fight but was marred by some eye pokes by Niko Price into the eyes of Donald Cowboy Cerrone. Price was deducted a point from the scorecards and that led to a majority draw. Khamzat Chimaev has taken the UFC by storm getting 3 victories in 66 days. The previous record was held by another guy on the same card Johnny Walker who got three wins in 105 days. Chimaev was supposedly facing much tougher competition in Gerald Meerschaert but knocked him out in 17 seconds. It has been an incredible two months and Khamzat looks on a meteoric rise up the ranks in the UFC. Johnny Walker got a knockout of his own at 2:43 of the first round. Enjoy the breakdown of a very entertaining 14 fight card.

This episode was a very special one as we welcomed one of nicest guys in pro hockey! Brandon Wong has a great life in the game of hockey and he shared his story with us.
Brandon worked very hard as a young player and improved yearly and ended up playing more than 400 games of professional hockey over 9 seasons in 8 different countries around the world. As a young guy he went to the Canucks rookie camp and he played with Jordie Benn, Michael Grabner and many others and they shot pucks on Cory Schneider.
He played in the Detroit Red Wings, New York Rangers and Ottawa Senators organizations. He has played with Wade Redden, Cam Talbot, Thomas Tatar, Justin Abdelkader, Matt Zuccarello, Brad May, Dale Wiese, Jacob Kindle to just name a few. He was coached by Mike Keenan, played in the John Tortorella system in New York. Played under Jim Nill the GM of the Dallas Stars, Neil Smith former GM of New York Rangers when they beat the Canucks in 1994 and won the Stanley Cup. He also played for Jim Schoenfeld who played in the NHL for Buffalo, Detroit and Boston and was an NHL head coach with Buffalo, New Jersey, Washington and Phoenix.
His life story is enjoyable to listen to and find out about the many steps, twists and turns he took on his adventurous journey. He played locally here in BC growing up and started to become increasingly skilled. We discussed those early years and lots of the players and people he encountered as he embarked on a junior career in the VIJHL and then BCHL.
His success led to a full ride four year scholarship at Quinnipiac University in Connecticut where he ended up with a business management degree. He was twice a finalist for the Hobey Baker award as the best player in the nation in University hockey. He called those four years "the best time of my life "which he said was surprising looking back. He wanted to play in the NHL so much that he thought that was where he was going to have the time of his life.
He played in the American Hockey League and East Coast Hockey League as he worked on finishing university. After three full seasons there he took his talents to Europe and played in Sweden and had a great year there. He took an opportunity to finish the year in Denmark and made that move. Another opportunity in the US came calling and he suited up for another three seasons for four different teams there. He went back to Europe and this time played in Germany and had a great year. The KHL made an offer to him that he seized and played there for his final seasons. He looked very fondly on that experience and really enjoyed the free travel all over Russia and China.
He is now running a hockey program in Victoria, BC Canada where he grew up. He is coaching, mentoring and trying to help pave the way for young kids to follow the same incredible journey that he went on. Good luck to Brandon and to his kids that he is helping fulfill their dreams of becoming pro hockey players and having it enrich their lives!

NFL #Openingweekend #NBA #UFC
A fantastic and fun breakdown of the NFL, NBA and UFC. We are so blessed to have this much sports to consume these days! The other part that is fun is that we get to break them down on this podcast platform! The year of 2020 has been horrible in so many regards but there has been a silver lining for us as the sports world has been providing us with so much entertainment.
Our conversation started with talk about the opening weekend of the NFL and all of the storylines that emerged. There were 5 Pro Bowl quarterbacks making their debut with new franchises and so light was shining on them to see how they would do. Tom Brady was not great but his replacement Cam Newton was. Tyrod Taylor played solidly in his Chargers debut in a win. Phillip Rivers who left the Chargers for the Indy Colts took a loss and so did Teddy Bridgewater with Carolina after leaving New Orleans. It was another great perfomance by long time Seahawk Russell Wilson who was incredibly accurate and was huge in victory. The breakdown of the league was very in depth and we covered many games and topics.
The NBA conference finals are set in the East as it will be Miami vs Boston which should be a great dogfight and memorable series. The Lakers have punched their ticket to the Western Finals with their five game dismantling of the Houston Rockets. The other spot in the final has yet to be decided as the Denver Nuggets have roared back from a three games to one deficit to force a seventh game against the LA Clippers. Denver have been amazingly resilient in this series and the playoffs as whole. They came back from three games to one down to Utah last round and won it in seven. We will see tomorrow who pulls out the big win. It shapes up to be Nikola Jokic against Kawhi Leonard for all of the marbles of this series!
We also discussed the UFC card that featured a great 5 round battle in the main event. Michelle Waterson took a great split decision victory over Angela Hill that was a phenomenal battle. Their was a lot of great finishes and decision wins and you should check out our breakdown.

We welcomed Dale Cory into our podcast to talk about a variety of sports.
The conversation started out discussing the Vancouver Canucks and how they staved off elimination in game 5. They heavily relied on their back up goalie Thatcher Demko who had not had a start in six months and had only played 8 minutes in the playoffs so far. Jacob Markstrom the Canucks MVP and #1 goalie was a surprise late scratch for that game and it led to Demko making his NHL playoff debut. Thatcher was the first goalie to win in his playoff debut since Jose Theodore with the Canadiens in 1997. The Canucks play game 6 tonight and must play a lot better to win and force a game 7. The Vegas Golden Knights outshot the Canucks 43 to 17 and have the majority of play in the Canucks zone in that last game.
We spoke about the big news of Steve Nash being hired to be the coach of the Brooklyn Nets. For those of you that don't know Steve Nash is a former 2 time MVP of the NBA and played 18 seasons in the association. He is a Canadian who grew up in Victoria, BC just like our host Darren Campbell. The Nets will be significantly better next season as they should have a healthy Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving among many others. There were some people being critical but there has been a lot of first time coaches that have had success recently. Steve Kerr, Ty Lue and Nick Nurse all took over and won the title that initial season.
Our conversation then shifted to Tom Seaver the Hall of Fame pitcher who passed away on August 31st. Seaver played 20 seasons in MLB and won 311 games in his career and had his biggest success with the New York Mets. Dale is a Mets fan and Seaver was the reason and his all time favorite player. He had some great words to say about a great and legendary icon from the world of baseball.

This is a preview of the FedEx Cup Tour Championship being held at East lake this weekend
. Casey and Darren brokedown the field that is only the top 30 in the FedEx Cup standings. This is an elite and incredible group of golfers teeeing it up Friday. Dustin Johnson who sits in first place starts a ten under par with a two shot lead over Jon Rahm. The rest of the golfers all will start with a stroke deficit based on their position. Justin Thomas starts in third place at seven under three shots behind the lead. the golfers in 26th to 30th place with start at even par 10 shots behind DJ. Ten strokes is not an insurmountable lead over four rounds of gold so everyone really has a legitimate shot at contending and maybe winning the $15 Million dollar first place cheque. Even if you finish in last place you still get $395 K to put into your bank account. so it was a great accomplishment just to make it here.
We went over our Draftkings picks and laid out many possible ways to play and our lineups. It really was a fun podcast episode that you should watch before the tournament. Remember it is a Friday through Monday tournament and finishes on Labor day. Please support our sponsors by going to our website and following the links to their sites.

This was a really fun breakdown with Casey O'Donnell to discuss the second leg of the FedEx Cup playoffs.
The tournament was held at Olympia Fields in Chicago and it was a really tough course that had most players scrambling just to make pars. The winning score was -4 compared to last weeks win by Dustin Johnson at -30. Speaking of DJ the World # 1 and Fedex Cup # 1 was in the drivers seat early on in the final round as he started the day tied for the lead. He then proceeded to birdie 3 of the first four holes to give himself a cushion. There were other golfers who played solid golf and threatened the top of the leaderboard but it was the World # 2 Jon Rahm who emerged as the leader in the clubhouse at -4. DJ had to drain a 43 foot putt on the 72nd hole to force a playoff. The two of them went back to the 18th tee and played the last hole again. When they hit the green with their approach shots DJ looked to be in the much better position. When Jon Rahm read his putt and sent it on its way I don't think anyone expected it to go in but that is what happened. The 66 and 1/2 foot bomb won him the tournament as DJ wasn't able to match his shot.
With the best players in the world playing so well this bodes well for East Lake in Boston next week for the Tour Championship and the finale of the FedEx Cup playoffs. The top 30 made it into that tournament and should provide us with amazing golf starting on Friday with the Monday finish on Labor day.
It was a real battle to get into the top 30 and Canadian Mackenzie Hughes just made it by sinking a tough five footer for par on his last hole of the tournament. Billy Horschel made it in thirtieth place after Canadian Corey Conners three putted from five feet to fall into a tie and give Horschel the spot by less than a point. All thirty now qualify for all of the majors and World Golf Championships and the Tournament of Champions,
The revised playoff format now has Dustin Johnson starting the first day at 10 under par Jon Rahm will be in second at 8 under, Justin Thomas third at seven under par and so on. The players sitting in the 26th through 30th place will start at even par ten shots back of DJ. It should lend to a very interesting tournament and have the golfers who are the best in the world currently battling it on for the top prize of $15 Million dollars and big paycheques for all with a purse of $60 Million.
Enjoy the golf

We started this episode speaking about how the professional leagues had all taken a hiatus late last week to address the social injustice concerns after the Jacob Blake shooting. We were happy to see the NBA take the lead and boycott games and then all of the other North American leagues following suit. The NBA Players Association and the NBA owners have agreed to establish a Social Justice Coalition with representatives from players, coaches and governors. This coalition will be focused on a broad range of issues, including increasing access to voting, promoting civic engagement and advocating for meaningful police and criminal justice reform.
We then discussed the unfortunate deaths this weekend of three individuals that had ties to the NBA and the sporting world.
We spoke of the shocking news that Chadwick Boseman had died after a 4 year battle with colon cancer. Chad was a huge NBA fan and had relationships with many in the league. He had played a lot of prominent roles like Jackie Robinson in 42, Ernie Davis NFL Hall of Famer in The Express, T'Challa in the Black Panther etc etc.
One of the other unfortunate passings this weekend was Clifford Robinson the 18 year veteran of the NBA. "Uncle Cliffy is best known for his time with the Portland Trail Blazers helping lead them to the NBA finals in 90 and 92.
Last but not least Lute Olson the long time Hall of Fame college basketball coach just passed away at 85 years old and is most remembered for his 25 year run as Head coach of the Arizona Wildcats. He took over a program at Arizona that was not very good and helped rise it to National prominence. They made 23 consecutive NCAA tournament appearances once he turned the program around. Dozens of NBA players have come from that program and we spoke about quite a few of them.
Our conversation ended up turning to discuss the on the court action as the first round was almost wrapped up and the second round was just starting .

It was a welcome sight to have former NBA reporter and writer Olivier Pheulphin joining on a podcast to discuss the playoffs.. We recorded the episode in the morning of August 26th and we were wanting to breakdown the first round so far and look ahead a little. We discussed a lot of great aspects of the games and performances that have happened so far. We obviously talked about Luka Doncic, Donovan Mitchell, Lebron James and other epic performances.
There was unfortunately a shadow being cast on the league because of the police shooting in Kenosha, Wisconsin. There was a few statements from the Toronto Raptors players that speculated on the possibility of a boycott of their game coming up on Thursday. In the following hours of our conversation the Milwaukee Bucks refused to take the floor leading to the postponement of their game against Orlando. This eventually led to the postponement of all of the scheduled NBA games on Wednesday August 26th.
Please listen to our takes and opinions of the playoffs so far and our look ahead but realize this was recorded before the protests and postponements.
Thank you Olivier for your great insight and valuable opinions.

What an amazing time to have Olivier Pheulpin join us to discuss the massive news of Lionel Messi asking Barcelona to let him leave the only club he has ever known.
The huge news of Messi wanting to leave Barcelona shocked the soccer world and the entire sports world and it created a firestorm of speculation on where he might end up. I asked Olivier if he could give us the scoop of the century and let us know if Messi was going to Juventus but no such luck. If you are a regular viewer of Complete Sports Media then you know that Olivier is the Technical director of the Juventus soccer academy in San Antonio, Texas. He is a life long football guy (soccer in North America) originally from France. He really gave us some amazing insight into this Messi situation and unprecedented potential or inevitable move from Barcelona. Messi started with Barcelona at 13 years old with their football Academy. He joined to the top club in 2006 and has went on to become one of the greatest players ever in history. After being embarassed 8 to 2 in the Champions league semi-final at the hands of Bayern Munich it seemed like the issues and difficulties proved to be irreparable. Messi has been having troubles with the Barcelona front office and this seemed to also lead to this acrimonious split. This is going to be exciting to follow and we will address it as soon as we get word on the direction this story takes.
Thank you Olivier for your great insight and valuable opinions.

Also in this podcast episode we discussed the NBA playoff basketball. We were recording as the NBA was trying to decide if they are going to boycott games to protest the shooting of Jacob Blake.

We welcomed Jason Cameron in to our podcast to have a discussion on the NBA. This day ended up being designated Mamba day because the date is 08/24 the two numbers that Kobe Bryant wore for the LA Lakers. There was a lot of tributes for Kobe and his daughter Gigi and the others who tragically lost their lives in that helicopter crash January 26th of 2020. The Lakers wore special throwback uniforms for their game against Portland today. There was a lot of amazing videos and comments from the NBA world today.
We then discussed the unbelievable and shocking police shooting of Jacob Blake that happened in Kenosha, Wisconsin. This city is just outside of Milwaukee and has been put on the map again for all the wrong reasons. The released video of the incident is tragic and sickening to watch but these videos are necessary to stop the police brutality and violence. It was really emotionally draining and hard to discuss but we are glad we talked about it to shed more light on it.
Our focus then turned to the action on the court and the great NBA week of the playoffs that we were just witness to. Enjoy the breakdown and all the details that we discussed.

The UFC Vegas 7 card was beset with numerous pullouts and cancellations and eventually there were only nine fights on the card. We welcomed Jason Cameron into our podcast to breakdown the card. We were treated to great takes as usual and it was very insightful.
The Fight Night was headlined by Frankie Edgar vs Pedro Munhoz as Frankie finally moved down to bantamweight for the first time. The UFC has constantly asked Edgar to fight at the 135 lb limit as it seems to be a more natural fit for his body. Edgar and his camp always refused to fight in the bantamweight division and it was hard to argue as he has carved out a Hall of Fame career at featherweight and lightweight. He is a former Champion at lightweight and now after Saturday nights split decision victory he is a winner in three different weight classes. The list of guys that have been able to get wins in three different divisions is a select few highlighted by Conor McGregor, Anthony Pettis, Diego Sanchez, Vitor Belfort and Kenny Florian. The main event was a razor thin decision and as close as they come to a draw. This fight was very difficult to judge and both fghters put on a very good display of high level MMA and both received praise for their efforts.
This card also had the biggest upset in UFC history according to the odds makers. There were some incredible and unexpected comebacks and unforgettable moments that ended up making this truncated 9 fight card one memorable UFC night.
Enjoy the breakdown and discussion from one of our favorite people on the planet Jason Cameron.

Complete Sports Media welcomed back Dale Cory into our podcast forum to discuss the NHL playoffs. This breakdown comes just as we have started the second round of the NHL playoffs.
The Vancouver Canucks had a crushing 5 to nothing beat down at the hands of the Las Vegas Golden Knights in game one. This was definitely not the way the Canucks faithful wanted the series to start but they were exposed for their shortcomings and played their worst game of the playoffs. This is only one game so it is definitely not time to panic but they must turn in a much better game two to give hope and confidence to themselves and their fans. The Canucks young guns Bo Horvat, Elias Petterson, Brock Boeser and Quinn Hughes all struggled mightily in game one. The Canucks MVP of the season and playoffs Jacob Markstrom also seemed to really be fighting the puck and wasn't positionally strong in the Canucks net. The entire team needs to put forth a better effort in the next game and series. Coach Travis Green needs to put a game plan in place and make a series of this one.
We spoke about all of the other series as the top eight NHL teams are still alive and fighting for the Stanley Cup. Enjoy the breakdown.

This was a great PGA breakdown of the first leg of the Fedex Cup playoffs at the Northern Trust Open.
Dustin Johnson dominated in incredible fashion as he shot thirty under par to win by 11 shots. He shot a second round 60 and kept pouring the ball into the hole the entire weekend to take over the world #1 and Fedex Cup #1 position heading into the BMW Championship next weekend. It was a masterful performance that hasn't been seen in over a decade where he practically lapped the field. We dove into his tournament and the zone he seemed to be in.
The other players that were playing for second place ended up being beat by Harris English who is also playing great golf these days.
The unfortunate part of the playoffs is that only the top 70 players make it to the second leg and that led to Phil Mickelson getting knocked out. That however will lead him to tee it up on the Champions tour for the over 50 crowd. Phil turned 50 in June and will head to the Ozark national and being the heavy betting favorite to win in his debut.
We also mentioned the shocking win by Sophia Popov who was ranked 304th in the world as she headed into this past weekends Womens Open Championship win. The event was held at Royal Troon and she beat the field by two strokes. No one has ever won a major with a lower ranking it was a truly epic performance.

We had a very fun and entertaining breakdown with Stephane Cappellini of the UFC Fight Night Edgar vs Munhoz. Stephane always has great takes and insight into the UFC cards.
This was a shortened fight card with only 9 fights but featured the biggest upset in UFC history according to the oddsmakers plus a lot of great action. The main event lived up to its billing as the Bantamweight debut of future hall of famer Frankie "The Answer " Edgar who won a split decision over # 5 ranked Bantamweight Pedro Munhoz. Pedro had a good game plan early as he employed relentless calf kicks and very hard punches. Edgar eventually just landed many more punches in bunches as his combos were non stop. Edgar the former lightweight champ was now into his third different weight class and still has the great footwork. There are really a select few that have won in three different UFC weight classes like Conor McGregor, Anthony Pettis, Vitor Belfort, Diego Sanchez Kenny Florian and a few others. This fight received fight of the night and the UFC handed 50K to each of the fighters on top of their purse.
We broke down almost every fight on the card higlighted by Shana Dobson beating highly touted Mariya Agipova and when her hand was raised it culminated in the biggest upset in UFC history. Agipova had a spectacular performance against Hannah Cifers on June 13th winning by submission and raising her record to 9-1. Shana Dobson came into this fight with a losing 3-4 record but turned the tables on Agipova in the second round and was given a TKO victory at 1:38. Dobson changed her life with a 50K bonus cheque and a UFC contract.
The fight between Daniel Rogriguez and Dwight Grant ended up being one of the rounds of the year candidates. "The Body Snatcher" Grant had "D- Rod" in all sorts of trouble early and the referee almost stopped this fight on a few occasions. Rodriguez rebounded and KO grant in amazing fashion at 2:24 of the first round. Go and watch that fight online you will be glad that you did. It reminded us of the Pat Barry vs Cheick Kongo incredible comeback victory from years ago.
The other highlighted fight was another incredible comeback scrap as Trevin Jones got a unlikely knockout of Timur Valiev the fighter from Dagestan. Jones heard about the fight with three days notice and came in for his debut. Valiev dominated the first round and it looked badly one sided. In the second round Jones hit him with a devastating check left hook and knocked him down he quickly jumped on him and pounded him until the ref pulled him off. Jones was the other 50 K bonus winner and said look out when he has a proper and full camp.
This was a fun card and breakdown.

This is a great preview of the Fedex Cup Playoffs at TPC Boston for the Northern Trust Open.
Casey brings a great perspective to these PGA previews as always. We are very excited that the playoffs are finally here and the top 125 for the year are going to tee it up starting Thursday. Tiger Woods is back and is a big focal point as usual. Justin Thomas is leading the Fedex Cup standings and is trying to win be the consensus player of the year. Another golfer who has a real shot at the top position is Collin Morikawa who won the years only major tournament at the PGA Championship at Harding Park in San Francisco. There are so many stories and great opportunities for players to emerge and change their life and career. Brooks Koepka was a late scratch because of lingering knee and hip injuries that he has been dealing with and he will be missed by some.
The top 70 of this tournament will make next weeks BMW Championship. The following week at East lake only the top 30 will make the Tour Championship with the possibility of cashing the $15 Million dollar cheque!
The Playoffs are here and we are soooooo excited to see the golf this weekend. Enjoy the preview and the golf ahead. Go onto DraftKings and pick some lineups it makes it a lot of fun to cheer on the guys that you pick.

This a a really great breakdown of UFC 252 Miocic vs Cormier for the Heavyweight Championship of the World.
This was a highly anticipated trilogy battle as both have one win over the other. The winner gets the title belt but also considered the baddest man on the planet which is a coveted title. It turned out to be a full 25 minute war and Stipe Miocic got his hand raised wining a unanimous decision. Stipe now also will be considered the G.O.A.T. (greatest of all time) heavyweight champion.
Daniel Cormier will not have his fairytale ending to his career. He didn't announce his retirement but will make it offical quite soon most people expect. He had a great career just not the ending he and his fans were hoping for. The fight had to endure an unfortunate eye poke that Daniel Cormier said blinded him. He went to the hospital following the fight to get the eye checked and was told he had a torn cornea. The other two wars these two had with each other also were disrupted with eye pokes. One of the main reason why this third fight was a bit delayed was because Stipe had to go through eye surgery to repair a torn retina. Stipe looked great as he sported a slimmed down sleeker body and great game plan.
The fight card had a lot of great battles and was really fun to watch and almost as fun to breakdown.

This is a great conversation with Dale Cory discussing the years first golfing major the PGA Championship from this past weekend.
Collin Morikawa etched his name into the history books and beat the best field of the year to win his first major! This was a incredibly deep field with so many guys near the top of the leaderboard with an opportunity to win late into the final round. Morikawa with an eagle on the 16th hole when he drove the green on the par four was able to finally separate himself from the pack. He played incredible golf on the weekend with a 65 and a 64 to win by two shots at 13 under par.
It was strange seeing a major with no fans and it diminished the electricity and some of the excitement. Most golf fans are hoping that there won't be many more majors played without a crowd.
Paul Casey and Dustin Johnson finished two shots back of the winner at - 11 under par and played great golf just not good enough to hoist the trophy. There was a five way tie for 4th place featuring Jason Day, Bryson Dechambeau, Tony Finau, Scottie Scheffler and Matthew Wolff all at 10 under par. Tiger Woods struggled with his game at times but played solid golf on Sunday to move up 22 places on the leaderboard and tied for 37th at 1 under par shooting a 3 under 67 on the final day.
It was a great tournament with a lot of great play and drama. We loved it! Enjoy the breakdown it really turned out to be a lot of fun!

Well the qualifying round of the playoffs has just ended so we invited Dale Cory to do a breakdown with us.
We also did a great in depth preview of the upcoming Stanley Cup playoff round of 16. This is such a great conversation about hockey that we really enjoyed ourselves and brought a lot to the table. If you are a fan of hockey you really should put this into your schedule and spend an hour with us!
This is the first day off since the restart happened and it gave us a lot of time to reflect on what occured in an unprecedented round of qualifying. The matchups have been decided and so we spent a good time on each series with a preview breakdown.
We of course talked at length about the Vancouver vs St Louis series and we both think the Canucks have a legitimate shot at advancing past this opponent. The Blues are the defending Stanley Cup Champions but have not looked great in this restart and could be beatable. All of the series seem to be a bit of a toss up in this new bubble world.
The other Western Conference matchups are
Las Vegas VS Chicago
Colorado VS Phoenix
Dallas VS Calgary
The Eastern Conference series are as follows
Philadelphia VS Montreal
Tampa Bay VS Columbus
Washington VS New York Islanders
Boston VS Carolina
We covered them all and had a lot of takes and predictions.
The draft lottery second round happened while we were on the air and it was announced that the New York Rangers had won. This was definitely not the most popular or unpopular outcome but probably a great result for Alexis Lafreniere. He is the consensus # 1 pick as he has shone and been a star at the junior level. He has won the MVP of QMJHL 2 years in a row and the only player to ever do that is Sidney Crosby. He scored 35 goals and recorded 112 points in 52 games this past year. He also was the MVP of the World Junior Championships held in the Czech Republic scoring 4 goals and 6 assists for 10 points in six games. He led Team Canada to a gold medal in the tournament. Most everyone rejoiced that it at least wasn't Edmonton that won this lottery as they have won it four times before and it hasn't led to much success.
Enjoy the conversation about some great hockey we have witnessed these past weeks. The playoffs are shaping up to be such a blast to watch and we are excited that the real Stanley Cup playoffs are here.

We are always proud and thrilled to invite Jason Cameron into our podcast platforms.
This was another great episode that was just a great back and forth conversation on the Derrick Lewis and Aleksei Oleinik fight card. The Black Beast proved how big and powerful he still is and got a huge Knockout win early in the second round. Oleinik was able to get Lewis to the ground in the first round and worked on many submissions attempts but the Beast survived the opening five minutes. In his corner Lewis got an earful telling him they wanted no more grappling and there really wasn't anymore as the fight was done after 21 seconds. Derrick came out he threw a flying knee into the body of Oleinik and then landed a big right hand that knocked him down. He pounced on him and started an onslaught of heavy right hands that eventually forced Herb Dean to call off the fight. This should keep Lewis in the conversation for a huge fight if not a title shot once Daniel Cormier and Stipe Miocic complete their trilogy fight next Saturday.
We then brokedown the card fight by fight with great coverage. It is always such a pleasure to hear the analysis of Jason as he has such an attention to detail.
Please watch and listen and it was a really fun and thought provoking discussion!

We got into a great conversation with Dale Cory to breakdown the first couple of weeks in MLB.
Baseball has taken a ton of criticism this year for their failed negotiations on getting a season going. The league lately has has had complaints levied against them because of their decision to not put their teams into a hub city bubble. The season got underway and within a few games there were a lot of positive Covid19 test results. The team that was hit the hardest was the Florida Marlins who had 21 members of their team test positive. This led baseball to postpone a slew of games to try to stop the outbreak. Florida had to scramble to get replacement players and the motley crew has compiled a 5 and 1 record to put them atop the NL East division. Derek Jeter the CEO and part owner has worked some magic and then trusted Don Mattingly his manager to do his best to win some ball games. Dale is a life long Mets fan and his team has struggled to find some consistency in the same division. The other story out of the NL East was the season ending injury to Braves pitcher Mike Soroka the Canadian ace. He tore his achilles tendon trying to field ball as he ran off the pitchers mound. We sure hope that he can recover swiftly.
We brokedown the Jays who have also struggled to find consistency and wins. The Yankees are 9 and 2 to have a huge lead in the AL East. Our discussion turned to theother top teams in the league! The Cubs have won 6 in a row and sit comfortably atop of the NL Central at 10-2 the Twins have the same 10 and 2 record and are on top of the AL Central. Oakland has won five in a row to put them on top of the AL West. To round it out in the NL West The Rockies are percentage points ahead of the Dodgers for the top of the division.
It was not really as in depth as we will probably do in other podcasts because of the other sports taking the spotlight from baseball currently. It was a fun discussion though and we recommend that you watch! Enjoy the conversation

Check out our really fun conversation with Dale Cory discussing the PGA Championship.
The years first major ends up being the 102nd PGA Championship from Harding Park in San Francisco. One of the main focus points of this tournament heading in was Brooks Koepka the two time defending champ. He shot a four under par opening round standing in a huge log jam one shot back of the leaders Jason Day and Brendon Todd. There were nine players at 4 under 66 just a shot behind. Sitting at three under par 67 were 8 players after the first round. So if you do the math that is 17 players within two shots of the leaders!
The biggest featured group on Thursday was Tiger Woods matched up with newly crowned world number 1 Justin Thomas and world Number 3 Rory McIlroy. Tiger played a pretty solid opening round and managed a 2 under 68 and is tied for 20th. Rory shot an even par 70 and sits in a tie for 48th JT struggled with two double bogeys and shot a one over par and sits in a tie for 68th.
This is a fun tournament to watch and what about to play? Well we can try and ask some of the 20 club pros that qualified for this years tournament. Lets hope a bunch of them make the cut and we have a chance to see a cinderella story! I hope that we get a chance to speak to at least one of them on an upcoming podcast.
Enjoy this conversation and the tournament this weekend!

We invited Dale Cory into a conversation on Junior Hockey to discuss many aspects and started with the new schedules they have been releasing. It was a great discussion and we are excited that the return of the lifeblood of most communities in this country is returning!
There was a lot of talk about the Penticton Vees who have won 9 straight Interior division titles and their dominance in the BCHL. This team featured 5 sons of former NHL players last season. Please watch to get details!

We welcomed Dale Cory to our podcast to talk about the NHL playoffs. The Vancouver Canucks game had just completed a 3 to nothing win over Minnesota in game three just as we went to air. We discussed the game and the series at length. The Canucks young talent has really impressed us and especially Quinn Highes with three assists in this game. Vancouver lost the opening game by the same 3 zip score. This result had a lot of people concerned that this could lead to a really early exit from the bubble. After winning the second game 4 to 3 and now taking a two games to one lead the concern has waned. The series will have a short turnaround with a game tomorrow evening with the Canucks hoping to close out the five game series.
Our conversation shifted focus into a lot of the other highlights from the seven qualifier matchups.
Then we briefly discussed the round robin seeding matchups that have lacked the intensity and focus that the qualifiers have had.
We were thrilled again to have Dale join us to discuss the NHL and you will enjoy our conversation. Give it a listen and tell your friends and family!

What a great breakdown this was as we talked about 5 tournaments in golf.
The main focus was the Fedex St Jude Classic from Memphis, Tenessee. Justin Thomas took a huge three shot victory at 13 under to reclaim the world number 1 that he held back in 2018. He shot a beautiful 65 on Sunday to pull out the huge win. Brooks Koepka had a great opportunity to win just one shot back but hit it into the water on 18 and carded a double bogey. Phil Mickelson, Daniel Berger and Tom Lewis all tied Koepka for second place at 10 under par. Lewis shot 61 66 on the weekend to race up the leaderboard. Brooks goes into this week as the two time defending champion of the PGA Championship which will be held starting Thursday at Harding Park in San Francisco.
Our discussion turned to the Barracuda championship and the first victory on the PGA tour for Richie Werenski. This tournament features some emerging talent and is the fifth consecutive year that a player has won his first tournament here. They use the modified stableford scoring system that rewards aggressive play and is fun to watch.
We then spoke briefly about the Champions tour and the Ally Challenge from Grand Blanc, Michigan. This was the debut for Jim Furyk in the Champions 50 and over tour and he had a two shot victory! He edged out Retief Goosen and Brett Quigley. Canadian Mike Weir also made his Champions tour debut and played solid and tied for 27th.
Our focus shifted to the LPGA tour and the victory for Danielle Kang and her rise to #2 in the womens world ranking. This is the best ranking for an American woman in some time. Her partner in life is Maverick McNealy who finished a very respectable 7th at the Barracuda Championship. He has been having a lot of great results this year and really looked great heading into the final round. What a golfing power couple!
The episode finished with us looking at the odds for the upcoming PGA Championship major. We will have a full preview on Wednesday so keep your eye out for that one! We will be giving you best bets and some optimal DraftKings lineups and parlays etc.

Another really great podcast episode with Jason Cameron and Complete Sports. UFC Fight Island fight night 174 had Robert Whittaker vs Darren Till and it was a technical masterpiece victory for "The Reaper" Whittaker. We had a very in depth breakdown of the whole card from top to bottom.
We also previewed the upcoming fight card from the Apex card in Las Vegas featuring Derek Brunson vs Edmen Shahbazyan. Our conversation eventually turned to the NFL and the big trade for top safety Jamal Adams who went to to Seattle Seahawks along with a fourth round pick. The Seahawks traded two first round and one third round pick to the New York Jets and safety Bradley McDougald. A very steep price but for one of the best safeties in the game it could be worth it. NFL training camps are set to open this week and it will be interesting to see how things unfold.
The baseball world was rocked on Monday as word came down that 13 members of the Miami Marlins baseball team tested positive for Covid 19. The league then postponed their next two upcoming games as well as their last weekends opponents the Philadelphia Phillies game against the New York Yankees. This coming on the heels of the first weekends action in baseball's return to play has shook up the entire sports world.
We touched on the new name just announced the Seattle Kraken for the latest NHL hockey expansion franchise. Jason likes it and thought it was a great move by the team.
Enjoy this latest great episode breaking down most of the sports here in North America.

This is a podcast that makes us see why we called our Podcast Complete Sports Media coverage! We invited Dale Cory an old and great friend into our studio to discuss a variety of sports. Dale has such an impressive sports media background and so I asked him to list off his roots. He will say near the end of this podcast that we could talk for hours and he is so right! This life long sports fan has been in media most of his life and we met when we were both covering the NHL and NBA.
We talked about the NBA a little and reminisced about the Vancouver Grizzlies and Chicago Bulls. It was nice to remember a lot of those years that are now more than 25 years in the past.
We talked a lot about baseball because today is opening day in Major League baseball. A lifelong New York Mets fan was representing his team with their jersey. We spoke about many aspects of baseball and brokedown a lot of topics. This is a sprint of 60 games instead of the normal 162 game marathon season. MLB just announced a big change to their playoff format as they are expanding their playoff pool to 16 teams.
As we shifted seamlessly to talk about junior hockey there was a lot of interesting aspects that we got into. Dale provides the colour analysis for the Penticton Vees Junior A hockey team. He has covered and worked with many junior hockey teams over his career. Those teams are the lifeblood of these smaller Canadian communities and Dale is always an integral part in their exposure and success!
We got into talking about the NHL and the playoffs that are about to begin. The playoff pool has been expanded to include 24 teams when normally it is 16. It is nice that the playoffs are about to begin because it is typically very excting and intense hockey.
Dale does the commentating at the local race track in Penticton and he was able to tell us what kind of events that they put on there. They have been shut down because of the BC health authority and the Covid 19 pandemic. We hope that there will be more events with fans in the stands there very soon!
We discussed the new Seattle NHL franchise who just released their name and uniforms the day before. The Seattle Kraken are going to start play in the 2021-22 season. There have been a lot of people disliking the name as it doesn't represent the Pacific Northwest or Seattle area. It was just nice to see another step in the process of starting a new expansion franchise. This team will immediately become a rivalry with the Vancouver Canucks because of the close proximity. We look forward to road trips to Seattle to see the Canucks beat the Kraken!
We quickly discussed the recent announcement that Mike Tyson will be returning to boxing to face Roy Jones jr.. At 54 years of age this is probably an unwise thing to do for the health of these legends of the sport. We will be watching if it happens though.
Thanks Dale I really appreciate your time and insight into so many topics of sports. Enjoy it everyone, We gave a shout out mention to a friend of ours Michael Scott at the end of this. Michael is about to embark on a long 100 KM bike ride to raise money for MS. We at Complete Sports Media put in a donation and we hope that some of you can do the same.

Well this was a great day in the history of the Complete Sports media podcast.
We welcomed in Jim Hughson an icon in Canadian sports broadcasting. He has been the lead play by play man for Hockey Night in Canada since 2009. He has been the by play play voice for the Vancouver Canucks, Toronto Maple Leafs, Toronto Blue Jays and the Montreal Expos. Jim is in the Hockey Hall of Fame for his broadcasting prowess and has won numerous other awards. We were able to connect with him just before he heads to Toronto to be the lead voice for the NHL playoffs. He will start by covering both the Toronto Vs Columbus and the Montreal vs Pittsburgh play in series. This year with the Covid 19 Pandemic shutting down the league and canceling the rest of the regular season we are in unprecedented times. With the NHL poised to resume with a 24 team playoff in two bubble cities in Toronto and Edmonton we are on the verge of a memorable summer of hockey! We were able to look ahead a bit to the tournament and talk about the uniqueness and improvisation that Jim and his broadcast team will have to face.
We also spoke at length about Jim and his life. It was one of my favorite hours in my life and can't wait to share it with you. Jim is going to go down as one of the best broadcasters to ever live and we were honoured to have him join us today! I hope that you enjoy it half as much as I did.

This is a great podcast with our resident analyst Jason Cameron. We spent the majority of the time breaking down the UFC. We delved into the Figueiredo vs Benavidez title fight and went through the whole card. We also looked ahead to dicuss the Robert Whittaker vs Darren Till card.
We talked about the NFL and the star players that recently took to social media to express their frustration at the seemingly lack of a plan to start this season safely.
Major League baseball just announced that Dr Anthony Faucci will be throwing out the first pitch for the Nationals against the Yankees. The doctor has been overworked in his capacity as one of the lead Coronavirus task force heads. After the Trump administration has tried to discredit Faucci it is nice he is being honoured with this distinction for his favorite team.
NHL revealed that they have over 2000 tests on 800 players with only 2 positive tests. Things are working so far in the top hockey league.
The NBA has tested 346 players this week with no positive test results. Speaking of the Association Jason finished uo by saying that the food in the bubble has been horrible according to many players. Surprising news to us and we hope that it gets addressed asap.

We were able to breakdown the 2020 Memorial tournament from Muirfield Village in Dublin Ohio. This tourney is always remembered for being Jack's place as Jack Nicklaus is the designer of this course. The winner was John Rahm the Spaniard who took over the #1 world ranking spot over Rory Mcilroy. It was the second of back to back tournaments at the great track and this week the course had a lot more bite. The scores were high and it was a much tougher test as the course played so different from just a week before. Enjoy the breakdown.
We briefly previewed the 3M championship in Minnesota upcoming this week. We will do a more comprehensive preview and give betting tips on Wednesday the day before the first round.

This was a great breakdown of the UFC card from Abu Dhabi that had the main event featuring the Flyweight world title. It was a rematch between Joseph Benavidez and Deiveson Figueiredo that ended in controversial fashion the first time. The was no controversy this time as Figueiredo knocked Benavidez down three times and finally submitted him with a rear naked choke. There is finally a belt holder after Henry Cejudo vacated the belt in February of this year. There would have been a champion just over a week later if Figueiredo had not missed weight. He won the first matchup after the collided heads with an accidental head butt that rocked Benavidez. Joe lost concentration and got knocked out. With their being no belt holder the UFC decided to let them settle it again this past weekend. There were a lot of good fights on this card and it was fun to watch and breakdown.
We also looked ahead to the last of the four consecutive cards on Fight Island in Abu Dhabi, The Main event of this card UFC Fight Night 174 is a middleweight matchup between Robert Whittaker vs Darren Till. I think everyone agrees that this should be a great battle between two top contenders. There are also three legends of the sport on the card fall from Brazil. Shogun Rua, Fabricio Werdum and Antonio Rogerio Nogueira are all fighting at this event.
Enjoy the breakdown.

Complete Sports is thrilled about this podcast as we welcomed an old friend Olivier Pheulpin to join us and discuss soccer and basketball. Olivier is the technical director for the Juventus soccer academy and soccer complex in San Antonio, Texas. Olivier is originally from France and he came to North America to cover the NBA as a reporter. He spent a few years in Vancouver covering the NBA expansion Grizzlies and then moved to San Antonio to cover the Spurs organization and league as a whole. He was fortunate to get to be an insider with one of the greatest organizations in sports in the San Antonio Spurs. They won yearly at an impressive pace and took home five NBA championships 1999, 2003, 2005, 2007 and 2014 in 15 years. With Olivier being from France one of his biggest sporting loves is Football(soccer in North America) and he decided to return as a coach for the Alamo Revolution in San Antonio . He had success and it seemed to fuel his desire for more involvement at a higher level. With a playing career and work experience with Paris Saint Germain on a resume and a knowledge and love for the sport of soccer he became interested in pursuing more opportunities. He became the director of Coaching FC Dallas in the Alamo area. He has the motto of just go for it and he was quoted once "If your dreams don't keep you up at night they are not big enough". He went on a European quest to find a top football club to bring a soccer academy to the US and specifically into the San Antonio area. He eventually found the right fit with Juventus one of the worlds premier football clubs. Juventus has Christiano Ronaldo one of the best players of his time and that has enabled them continue a dominance in Serie A. Juventus are poised to win their 9th straight League title and take a run at a Champions league crown. Ronaldo is one of the most marketable and famous athletes in the world. He is the most followed user on Instagram and Facebook and is typically one of the world's highest paid athletes. So not only has Olivier convinced Juve to start a soccer academy in this area they are also building a incredible soccer facility called Soccer Central. He should be incredibly proud of this accomplishment and for the good it will provide youth in the greater San Antonio area.
We shifted gears here and there and discussed NBA basketball at length and waxed poetic on memories we had covering the association. We spoke about the Last Dance Chicago Bulls documentary and how it was nice remembering how we were there for many of those moments. It was a really fun conversation and I didn't want it to end. We will have him back for more once things start back up soon.
Thanks to Olivier and our viewers and listeners. One of my favorite people that first was a colleague and became a friend. Enjoy! Take Care,

What an exciting weekend of golf at Muirfield Village in Dublin Ohio! This inaugurul Charity Open was an amazing and memorable tournament. They lost the John Deere Classic off the schedule so the PGA scrambled and decided to head to Muirfield one week early and have this tourney replace it on the schedule. This will mean having back to back PGA tournaments at one course for the first time in 63 years.
It was a fantastic weekend of golf highlighted with a great roller coaster Sunday that ended up in a three hole playoff. Collin Morikawa held off one of the best in the world in Justin Thomas. Morikawa led the tournament after the 1st with a 65 and second round 66 roaring out to to a big lead. Justin Thomas reeled him back in with a 66 of his own on saturday against Morikawa's 72. That lead was gone by 4 holes on Sunday as JT made two bogeys and Morikawa and Viktor Hovland both were getting a lot of early birdies. Then JT turned it around in the middle of his round and eventually had a three shot lead with three holes to play but lost it. It forced an incredible three hole playoff. On the second playoff hole Thomas was first to putt and sized up a fifty foot wide breaking left to right putt. He nailed the fifty footer that almost sealed the victory but Morikawa drained a 24 foot putt of his own to continue the battle. When JT hit his tee shot behind a little tree on the 10th hole he had to lay up and when Morikawa nailed his par putt he had his second victory on tour. He has more wins (2) than missed cuts (1) in 24 tournaments.
We also look ahead to the Memorial tournament presented by Jack Nicklaus and the return of Tiger Woods searching for his record breaking 83rd career win to break the tie with Sam Snead and become the winningest golfer of all time. Tiger is teeing it up for the first time in five months so he could be rusty. He will be playing the first two rounds with Rory Mcilroy and Brooks Koepka and that will be a fun group to watch. The other featured pairing we talked about was Bryson Dechambeau with Collin Morikawa and Patrick Cantlay the defending champion of the Memorial Tournament.
Enjoy our breakdown of two great tournaments.

So the fight Island UFC 251 card finally has come and gone and we had a great breakdown.
Three title fights on the card which has only happened twice before on UFC 33 and UFC 217. Kamara Usman dominated Jorge Masvidal and ground out a five round decsion victory. Alex Volkanovski won a controversial 5 round split decision that many people had going the other way and having Max Holloway win the rematch and recapture his belt. In the third title fight Petr Yan the Russian boxer eventually wore down Jose Aldo and put a bad beating on the legendary former champ. We had a lot to talk about with all three matches and discussed them all at length.
Then we got into breaking down the great rematch between Rose Namajunas and Jessica Andrade. It was a great performance by "Thug" Rose who took the split decision win. Amanda Ribas had a phenomenal arm bar submission win over Paige Van Zant. The debut fight of Jiri Prochazka was memorable for his fighting style and antics and huge knockout of former title challenger Volkan Oezdemir. Mr' Finland Makwan Amirkhani put his name into the record books with his second Anaconda choke win. Only Phil Davis and Charles Oliviera have won two fights by Anaconda choke. It was an impressive performance and submission. Davey Grant was able to get a third round knockout when he probably would have lost a decision if it went to the judges scorecards.
We previewed this mid week card called Fight Night 172 with the main event Pitting Calvin Kattar Vs Dan Ige which should be a great battle. The other great fight on the card to really look forward to is Jimmie Rivera facing Cody Stamman in a great featherweight matchup.
Thanks for checking out our great breakdown and preview!

We welcomed Scott Holburn into the conversation. We discussed UFC 249, 250 looked ahead UFC 251. Scott started talking about the bantamweight division in the UFC. He said the division is stacked with a "murders row of contenders and Sean O'Malleys performance as an example. O'Malley was not in the top 15 until his performance at UFC 250. Scott expressed disappointment at Jose Aldo getting a title shot coming up at UFC 251 against Petr Yan. He pointed to Jose Aldo's debut in the bantamweight division being a decision loss to Marlon Moraes the #1 ranked contender in the division. Our team at Complete Sports thought Aldo won that fight until the decision was read out in the cage. There is some questioning if Aldo deserves it and Scott mentioned Cody Garbrandt, Aljimain Sterling and Marlon Moraes as possibly better opponents for Petr Yan. When Petr Yan was discussed Scott said he was very deserving and looked like a machine. We spoke about Cody Garbrandt"s huge knockout being one of the best finishes we had ever seen. Scott said he has to be one of the fastest punchers in the division and controlled the fights with his calf kicks on Raphael Assuncao. We chatted about the great submission win by Aljimain Sterling who quickly took Cory Sandhagen"s back and sunk in the rear naked choke to get the tap out victory. Scott reiterated how he thinks jujitsu and Muay Thai kicks are dominating the sport at this time in hisory. He reflected on Conor McGregor arguably beating Nate Diaz with those kicks in their second fight. Henry Cejudo beat Dominick Cruz in UFC 249 to retain his belt. We had some big laughs at Cejudo calling himself the greatest of all time. Scott was very accurate in bringing up Jon Jones as a fighter who had really cleaned out his division with no argument and was one of the greatest of all time. Anderson Silva was also brought up as one of the fighters who legitimately can claim that he beat all comers in his division for a lengthy run at the top. Cody Stamann had entered the cage with a heavy heart as his 18 year old brother had just lost his life the previous week. Cody got a huge emotional win over Brian Kelleher. "Martial Arts is Violent Meditation" is one of Holburns favorite sayings and he said it could have been exactly what Cody needed. We then shifted gears to speak about UFC 249 and the discussion started speaking about Justin Gaethje and his dominating performance against Tony Ferguson. Scott had predicted that Gaethje would win and had won a bet with Mike Church(Churchy to most) to have some bragging rights. We both referenced how difficult a matchup this was for Ferguson as he had spent the last few years constantly training for Khabib Nurmagomedov and the fight had been postponed 5 times. Gaethje brings a completely different skill set to the cage and it gave Tony all sorts of troubles in a terrible beating. The conversation shifted to UFC 251 that had just been announced for Fight Island on July 11th and specifically the three title fights on that card. We spoke about the main event that pits Kamara Usman vs Gilbert Burns and how he deserves the title shot. Jorge Masvidal had been rumoured to be the deserving next challenger but it sounds like he might face Conor McGregor and make his money and get the notoriety he wants. Jorge Masvidal had beat Darren Till and knocked out Ben Askren with a flying knee. We then broke down the Max Holloway vs Alex Volkanovski 2 title fight. We both wonder and sort of doubted that Holloway can figure out how to avenge his loss from last time. Scott kind of wrapped it up perfectly about how the UFC has made us feel human again after not having any sports to watch for months!
This podcast had a lengthy intro leading into this conversation about the Bay area. There was a lot of recent subjects with Bay area connections like Colin Kaepernick, Golden State Warriors players marching in black lives matter protests, Oakland raiders moving to Las Vegas, With two teams there MLB fighting amongst themselves trying to get back to playing ball. We welcomed Hendrix Young into our podcast and started a great spirited conversation that focused on many sports from a Bay area perspective. It was nice to get such a unique view of many topics with San Francisco and Oakland teams in the fore front. The surrounding area is now home to 5 professional teams in the four major sports with the Raiders abandoning Oakland for a second time. This was an interesting free flowing conversation that we found intriguing and enjoyable. We hope that you enjoy it as much as we did.
Thank you for your time Hendrix we look forward to talking to you when most of these leagues start back up again. Cheers!

Complete Sports Media is proud to present this special episode featuring a life story of Jason Cameron our resident analyst and friend of the show. His Mother gave him words of wisdom to help him on his journey "Always be mindful of what you are doing because they will always see you first before anyone else". Jason went on to say "These words were always a constant reminder of how conduct myself as I lived my life". Jason was able to shed some light on his unique life. His mother was a special woman and is forever his hero. She was a nurse and a frontline worker who deserved her hero status. Jason is a special guy in big part because of the way his Mom raised him as a hard working single parent. He eventually did face racism because of the color of his skin but was luckily surrounded by a lot of great friends who helped him through it. Luckily Jason was born and raised in Canada as a young black man and had to endure so much less worry, concern and racism. We all hope that more black men can have an opportunity to face a more accepting world like Jason did. With the systematic oppression, police brutality and blatant racism throughtout the US reaching a breaking point recently it has made the Black Lives Matter movement impossible to ignore. Thanks Jason for sharing your experiences and reflecting on your life and journey. We appreciate your time and support of these posted conversations on sports and life.

This posting comes on the heels of a great victory by Bryson Dechambeau in the PGA tournament the Rocket Mortgage Classic from Detroit Michigan. It was a great breakdown with Darren Campbell and Casey O'Donnell in conversation. Dechambeau spent the Covid 19 pandemic lock down working out and putting on a lot of muscle. It was very evident in his physique and he has increased his club speed and ball striking where he set a record for distance average. This victory and recent string of success could revolutionize golf and change the game. Many other competitors were talked about and discussed but it just came down to Bryson and this epic and memorable performance as the story in golf!

Scott Holburn joined the Complete Sports media team to discuss the UFC as usual and Covid 19 a it reared its ugly head again. The UFC was on a one week break in action but still dominated the headlines over the weekend. One half of the scheduled main event had to pull out because of a positive Covid 19 test result. Gilbert Burns was one of the latest unfortunate victim of the pandemic. The initial reports were that the fight was cancelled or at best postponed. Kamara Usman has the Welterweight Championship 170 lb belt and was trying to defend it for the second time. The original opponent was supposed to be Jorge Masvidal the #3 ranked Welterweight fighter. The UFC and Masvidal had been negotiating the contract for the fight but talks broke down and eventually stopped over money demands. The UFC changed course and signed Gilbert Burns to fight for the title and headline the UFC 251 card on Fight Island in Abu Dhabi. This turn of events has become good for Masvidal who finally had his contract demands met and the UFC has an even more intriguing matchup. There is some big animosty between the two of them and you can find some of their confrontations on Youtube.
We talked a little about the other title fights on the card and our thoughts about the match ups and who we favored. Then the rest of the conversation we spoke in great detail of Covid 19 and the impact it has had on the sports world. I made a mistake saying that the Toronto Blue Jays had been in a quarantine bubble in For Myers Florida but it was in fact the Toronto Raptors.

We at Complete Sports Media have started to really get used to breaking down the PGA tour with a guy on his sailboat. If we had started this a few months ago we would have had a boring old location from where he would bring his commentary. There was a lot of great analysis on this podcast coming on the heels of another great tournament. Enjoy and please become a regular viewer and listener, subscribe, like and make some comments!
Thanks for your time. Take care and bye for now!
Complete Sports Media is thrilled to bring you this podcast as we are reaching a new high. Jason Cameron a consummate pro delivered an impressive performance and one that you can't miss. This is a podcast that typifies the level of breakdown and Podcast that we want to be known for. Jason today it was such a pleasure to talk sports with you!! To all our viewers and listeners please take some time out of your busy schedules and watch and listen to this. It was and will be one of the best hours we have ever spent.
We began this podcast with an introduction to breakdown the fight card from the Las Vegas Apex headlined by Curtis "Razor" Blaydes vs Alex "Drago" Volkov. Blaydes won a unanimous decision and set a heavyweight record by taking Volkov down 15 times. Scott started by saying that it was a great performance by Blaydes and his wrestling was outstanding and his striking looked really good as well. He said it was a bit surprising how good his striking looked going up against such a big striker like Volkov. His only negative that he saw was how the Razor's cardio did not look good. To us that was the most surprising part as he trains at altitude in Colorado with the Elevation Fight Team. Dana White made some comments that Blaydes better stay busy as he will not move further in his career against tougher competition with cardio like he displayed in this fight. Holburn pointed out that he will not out wrestle the champ Stipe Miocic or his next challenger Daniel "DC" Cormier. On August 15th those two will have a much anticipated trilogy fight to finally prove who is the best Heavyweight of all time! Francis Ngannou has been told he gets the next title shot but there have been a lot of talk that this will be DC's last fight and that Stipe might retire as well after this fight. Blaydes has lost twice to Ngannou both to TKO's so the UFC is reluctant to schedule a third fight between two fighters. The heavyweight division is taking shape with these four guys at the top. Scott also talked about the exciting upcoming fight as Alex Gustafsson is moving up to heavyweight to face former champ Fabricio Werdum on July 25th on Fight Island. There have also been a lot of rumors that light heavyweight champ Jon Jones is also considering a move up to the heavyweight division. Nice quote here "You put those two guys(Gustafsson and Jones) in the conversation things can change real quick!".
We had a great discussion about the Co-main event which had Josh Emmett winning a decision over Shane Burgos. This was an excellent fight that was highly entertaining. Emmett blew out his knee by full tear of his ACL in the first few seconds of the fight and it limited his ability. Emmett gritted out a great win but both fighters both impressed and should be starting to be in the mix to get big fights and eventually one of a handful to be considered for a title shot. The Champ of this featherweight division is Alexander Volkanovski who is scheduled for a rematch with Max Holloway July 11th.
We had to address the controversial first fight of the card between Austin Hubbard vs Max Rohskopf. The two fighters had a very even first round and then Hubbard really displayed some dominance in the second round. When Max Rohskopf went to his corner after the second round he started to say to his coach and cornerman Robert Drysdale to call it. He wanted Drysdale to end the fight and his coach kept trying to encourage him to continue. He implored his corner to "call it" over and over and said he didn't have it. Finally when the minute rest period between round ended the athletic commission asked him if he wanted to continue and he said no. Since this encounter was filmed and the audio heard on the telecast there has been a lot of controversy. There was a lot of criticism leveled against Drysdale for not stopping the fight and Rohskopf for quitting. We at Complete Sports Media have had quite a few interactions with Robert Drysdale who has won multiple World Championships in Jiu Jitsu. He has been called the most accomplished American Grappler of his generation. Drysdale has coached numerous world champion UFC fighters like Randy Couture, Forrest Griffin, Joana Jedrzejczyk, Frank Mir, Vitor Belfort, Wanderlei Silva, Dan Hardy to name just a handful. We think Drysdale should be given the benefit of the doubt!
Check it out it is a great podcast!
There is a short intro to our podcast coming after the RBC Heritage PGA golf tournament held in Hilton Head, South Carolina. Casey was brought into the conversation and he joined us again aboard his new sailboat. We talked about the last day of the tournament falling on Fathers day. The telecast featured numerous mentions of fathers and sons and the eventual winner Webb Simpson was a father of five who had lost his own father a few years ago. Casey mentioned how most of us were introduced to the game by our own fathers. It is a unique game that can be started at a very young age and played into your 80's or even into our 90's.
Casey talked about the 2 and a half hour weather delay because of a lightning storm in the area. It obviously changed the dynamic and sucked the momentum from some of the golfers. The delay put the finish and the Sunday and Fathers day completion in jeopardy.
Casey was impressed by the -22 winning score and the logjam of players at the top. He stated that the course was playing nice and the greens were receptive and you didn't have to bomb it out there. When the main coverage on CBS started Dylan Fratelli had taken a two shot lead by blazing to a 62 final round score! Justin Thomas then joined the party at 17 under as well and could have gone lower but the rain delay seemed to derail his mo and he finished with a 63. We talked about Abraham Ancer, Tyrell Hatton among others who had a real shot to win this tourney. Casey was impressed by Daniel Berger, Brooks Koepka, Sergio Garcia and Joaquin Niemann who all had good showings in the tournament. Casey then brought up Canadian Corey Conners who put together three good rounds but for the second straight week had a disappointing final round. He finished a very respectable 14 under and has really been driving the ball well, he had 90 to 1 odds to win at the beginning of the week so Casey put some money down on him. He also had an 8 game parlay bet and unlike last week when he hit them all he just came up one short. We got into a great discussion of this tournament and you should listen to the breakdown especially if you missed the TV coverage. We brought up Nick Watney as the first player to be diagnosed with the corona virus and he had to withdraw after the first round, The PGA tour is doing tests very frequently and is expecting more positive tests in the coming weeks.
Thanks so much for tuning in to another podcast episode from Complete Sports Media. Please tune in again and tell your friends and family about the podcasts. Take care, Love yah and bye for now!
Tune in for another great podcast from The Complete Sports and Media Coverage team. Today we are featuring a great conversation with a veteran of the combat sports world Stephane Cappellini. Capo has competed in combat sports and worked with his local athletic commission to help put on events. We have a short introduction to the show as we start talking about the UFC. After the pandemic hit North America and postponed and cancelled events the UFC was able to eventually return. We began talking about the events in Florida and Las Vegas after the sport had returned with no fans. We all have been missing live sports and with hard work the UFC has started to fill that void. We introduced Stephane and welcomed him to the show. Our conversation started by speaking about the difference we noticed with no fans in the stands at these latest live event fight cards. We briefly discussed the rumors of Mike Tyson fighting Shannon Briggs or Evander Holyfield. The focus quickly shifted back to the UFC and the latest pay per view UFC 250 and the main event featuring Amanda Nunes and Felicia Spencer. After a brief discussion about the dominant performance by Nunes we shifted into discussing the other fights on the card. We began to specifically speak about the bantamweight fights beginning with Cody Garbrandt and his big knockout victory over Raphael Assuncao.
Stephane mentioned Garbrandts jujitsu coach Ricardo Almeida and we brought up his new Striking coach Mark Henry and his original team Team Alpha Male. Sticking with the bantamweights we marveled at the submission victory by Aljimain Sterling over Cory Sandhagen. Then transitioned into talking about the big knockout win by Sean OMalley over Eddie Wineland. To cap off UFC 250 we talked about Cody Stamman and his win with a heavy heart after his 18 year old brother had passed away recently. We then turned our attention to the latest fight announcement of the card for UFC 251, It was revealed just hours before our conversation that the card would take place on Yas Island called "Fight Island" in Abu Dhabi on July 11th. This card is scheduled to feature three world title matches. We started by talking about the Title fight in the Bantamweight division between Petr Yan and Jose Aldo. The belt is on the line because of the retirement of Henry Cejudo and so the title was vacated. The Main event of UFC 251 features the Champion Kamara Usman defending his belt against Gilbert Burns. We discussed some of Burns last fights and the merits of his title shot. We shifted to the third title fight on the card that would see a rematch between Featherweight Champion Alexandre Volkanovski vs Max Holloway. Volkanovski took the belt from Holloway on December 14, 2019 by unanimous decision. Stephane questioned how Holloway could comeback in such a relatively short time and get a victory and getting beaten quite badly the in first match. Our great conversation was concluded with some discussion on the recent announcement of Georges St Pierre getting nominated for the UFC Hall Of Fame. It was a great breakdown from one of our favorite analysts and we look forward to many more discussions in the future.

Hello there my name is Darren Campbell and this is a conversation from a podcast called Complete Sports Media. We hope that you enjoy it and come back regularly for great in depth discussions on a variety of sports topics. This interview from our podcast features a great guest Jason Cameron. Jason is a former athlete and broadcast journalism alum. He brings an experitse on many sports especially combat sports, NFL, and NBA. We love his enthusiasm, humour, and strong opinions on the sporting world. Enjoy this weeks episode that comes on the heels of another UFC card and looking ahead to other sports getting back to business.
We started discussing the UFC 250 card from Las Vegas that featured a main event dominated by the two weight class champion Amanda Nunes. She was defending her women's Featherweight belt agains a very tough but over matched contender, Canadian Felicia Spencer. Jason had great observations and impressive take on the three men's Batamweight fights on the card that really started clering up the picture in the weight class. Henry Cejudo defended his belt and then surprisingly retired after his fight at UFC 249. This left the majority of the top fighters in the weight class knowing so much more was riding on these fights to show if they were contenders or pretenders. Huge knockouts by Cody Garbrandt and Sean OMalley and a slick and swift submission by Aljimain Sterling were all discussed and admired. There was talk of the dominance of Justin Gaethje from UFC 249 and we also capped off our MMA talk happily rejoicing over George St. Pierre getting nominated for the Hall of Fame during that same card. Much love and respect to a true pioneer of one of the greatest to ever grace the Octagon.
Our focus then shifted to the unfortunate murder of George Floyd and the shocking reversal of opinion from Roger Goodell the Commissioner of the NFL. Goodell had posted a message a few days before stating how the NFL had been wrong in their handling of the protests and kneeling to shed light on racism, police brutality and racial inequality in the past. He vowed they would do better and support the cause now moving forward. It was a great moment and showed that the protests had really gained traction and might have finally reached a tipping point and could invoke change. It was good to also look ahead to an interesting upcoming NFL season.
Speaking of upcoming seasons that was part of the discussion when we spoke of the NBA. There is a sense of excitement about the new parody and possibility of new teams emerging in the power struggle at the top. There was talk also of the teams in the West that will be fighting it out for the eighth and final playoff spot. The Memphis Grizzlies currently occupy the 8th and final spot with 5 teams in the hunt chasing them for the final 8 game regular season stretch drive. The super rookie point guard Ja Morant should solidify his hold on the rookie of the year trophy if his team can hold off the other teams. However one of the teams chasing the Grizzlies is the New Orleans Pelicans with their own phenomenal rookie Zion Williamson. if he can deliver a playoff spot for his team he might just win that trophy himself despite missing a huge chunk at the start of the abbreviated season. It will be fun to watch! Finally we discussed Boxing and the first card scheduled after the pandemic. The amazingly talented Shakur Stevenson was about to take on another challenger as he works his way towards the upper echelon of the pound for pound best in the sport. It was a great discussion all around as the time flew by and we were thrilled to get back to some sense of normalcy in our lives.
This is for your viewing and listening pleasure we would love to hear your feedback.
The Complete Sports media team welcomed Stephane Cappellini into the Podcast with an intro that he hadn't heard in awhile. We had a ton of fun talking about a dynamic card and especially the main event between Dustin Poirier vs Dan Hooker. We loved doing it and he delivered a knockout podcast episode!!!
Thanks for checking it out. Please come back for more every week. Love yah bye for now!
Podcast conversation with one of our favorite people on the planet the always dynamic Jason Cameron. We covered a lot of topics today starting with the new NBA coalition headed up by Kyrie Irving, Avery Bradley and Dwight Howard. This coalition is trying to get NBA player support to boycott the NBA season and not go into the Orlando " Bubble" that will be where the 2019-2020 season is scheduled to resume. Mr Cameron eloquently described his displeasure in Kyrie and him not using his voice to give a clear and concise plan. The fight for Social injustice, police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement needs to continue of course. We both wonder that how this coalition honestly believes that by not playing their support will be heard louder than by resuming the NBA season. Jason went on to say that the NBA players will undoubtedly be able to do their job and continue to further their support for the causes that have been taken up after the murder of George Floyd.
Switching gears to the NFL to discuss another week and another video message from Commissioner Roger Goodell. Last week Jason expressed his disbelief and amazement that Goodell and the NFL owners admitted that they were WRONG in not listening to the NFL players concerns earlier on racism and the systematic oppression of black people. A lot of opinions were shared on the videos contents and apology. There was some criticism that in the message Goodell didn't refer directly to Colin Kaepernick who four years ago led the players taking a knee to oppose police brutality and racial inequality. Kaepernick became a civil rights activist and lost his NFL career as the league allegedly colluded to keep the former 49ers QB out of the NFL since 2016. This time Goodell did finally address Kap and said he has encouraged NFL teams to sign the QB.
The UFC June 13th card was then discussed as we broke down most of the fights on the card. The three fights at the start of the card and four of the first five that all lasted less than a minute. Tyson Nam was the first fighter spoke about how impressive his performance was getting a knockout in 32 seconds over Zarrukh Adashev. We talked about the former hockey enforcer Christian Aguileras UFC debut ending in a knockout over Anthony Ivy in 59 seconds. There was discussion on the main event with Jessica Eye and Cynthia Calvillos dominance over her with takedowns. The other fight featured was Andre "Touchy" Fili and Charles "Air" Jourdain who had an amazingly compelling three round technical fight with all elements showcased. Then we spoke about the next UFC card that is to take place in Vegas June 20th. The main event is Curtis "Razor" Blaydes vs Alex Volkov which has the potential for an epic battle. Josh Emet and Shane Burgos willface each other in the co main. Then we discussed the two veterans Jim Miller and Clay Guida on the cards and the fun it will be to be watching them in the twilight of their respective careers.
Thanks again Jason for so many impressive takes and opinions you are a gem. Take care everyone and Bye for now!
This is a breakdown of this past weekends PGA return to play at the Colonial tournament in Fort Worth Texas. There was a 13 week shutdown of the tour due to the Corona Virus. It was tough for golf fans especially as this is when the season is typically in full swing.
We had a short intro before welcoming Casey onto the show. He was joining us from his new sailboat.
We forgot to ask if he was parked beside or near Tiger's yacht "Privacy"! There have been many sightings of Mr Woods Yacht around as people try and speculate where his is in the world and that could shed some light on when he will return to tournament golf.
Casey began by saying that the Champion of the tournament Daniel Berger was a little hungrier for the win compared to Brooks Koepka and Bryson Dechambeau. We both observed the immense size that Bryson has put on his frame and overall physique. "Did you see him next to Justin Rose he was twice the size of him" Bryson is changing so much in his swing and with the added size he noticed some rigidity on some of his shots. he thinks that if he can just calm down and control some more of those shots he will lap the field in some tournaments. Bryson was the talk of the tournament because of this workout regiment he was on during Covid-19. Casey brought up the fact that the golfers were still sharp despite the layoff. His statistic was impressive as he said that 16 golfers shot all of their four rounds in the 60's. Even with no tournament play they still shot low scores. Casey smartly made the point that some of the wayward shots guys had would have typically hit grandstands and places where fans would be congregated normally so that gave them better opportunities at salvaging scores. The biggest aspect of no fans that we at Complete Sports observed was when Sung Kang made a hole in one and nobody cheered "there were crickets" and Kang didn't even know that it had went in.
Casey then wanted to breakdown Xander Schauffele"s day he hit a 30 foot bomb for bogey on 15 then hit another long putt on 16 for birdie then the "Power lip out on 17" golf can be so cruel. We discussed how many guys had a shot at the title but so many putts that just missed or lipped out. Daniel Berger had finished 9th, 5th and 4th in tournaments before the break so it was good to see he was able to continue his hot play and get a huge win over a world class field. We both noticed how Berger had come from behind and wasn't in the last few groups so he was able to post a number and let the other guys have to try and match or beat that -15 score. When Collin Morikawa stepped up to his short putt on 18 they showed a shot of Berger watching the putt that if it is holed wins the tournament for Morikawa and he pulled it. Once Schauffele fell off the pace there was a two man playoff. Morikawa hit it way wide right off the tee and had to scramble to get in position to have another short putt to tie the hole and send it to more extra holes but missed his chance again and handed the win to Berger.
We spoke a little about Olympic View Casey's home course when he is in Victoria and Duncan Meadows when he is up the Island. It was a great conversation and nice to have a lot of golf to breakdown and discuss.
Love having golf back and being able to consume it and analyze it for days after especially with such a great guy in Casey Odonnell. Remember to subscribe and like the videos and keep you eye out every week for more great content like this. Cheers and love yah bye for n

It will be fun to watch!
Finally we discussed Boxing and the first card scheduled after the pandemic. The amazingly talented Shakur Stevenson was about to take on another challenger as he works his way towards the upper echelon of the pound for pound best in the sport. It was a great discussion all around as the time flew by and we were thrilled to get back to some sense of normalcy in our lives. This is for your viewing and listening pleasure we would love to hear your feedback.
Complete Sports Media is thrilled as usual to bring the insight and wisdom of Scott Holburn to our platform. We started off this conversation by talking about how meaningful and important mixed martial arts has been to our lives. It really is an amazing sport and Scott describes it as good as anyone "It's an excellent skill to have and excellent form of exercise and discipline and great for self defence and self esteem I can't say enough about it." The sport is looked at as a individual sport but it is definitely a team sport. There are some very prominent teams like AKA ( American Kickboxing Academy)located in San Jose, H Kickboxing and HardKnocks 365 headed up by Henri Hooft in Florida, Team Alpha Male in Sacramento California started up by Uriah Faber.
We brokedown the UFC card from the Apex in Las Vegas from June 13th. The prelims turned out to be stellar as four of the first five fights ended in the first minute. Tyson Nam blew everyone away with his lightning quick knockout victory in 32 seconds. Christian Aguilera impressed in his UFC debut as he knocked out Anthony Ivy in 59 seconds. Julia Avila " Raging Panda" came out guns a blazing and overwhelmed Gina Mazany and got the TKO in 22 seconds. The main event was a showcase performance for Cynthia Calvillo who had moved up a weight class to face the #1 contender Jessica "Evil" Eye. The Andre "Touchy " Fili won a split decision over Canadian Charles "Air" Jourdain that was a fight of the night contender and highly entertaining 15 minute battle. Maria Agopova also looked incredibly impressive in a round one submission victory.
We also looked ahead to the UFC upcoming card in Las Vegas featuring Curtis "Razor" Blaydes vs Alex "Drago" Volkov. This card was scheduled to take place on this date in Saskatoon, Canada. The main event should be a great fight and will elevate the winner very high up in the heavyweight ranks. Both of us thought that the co-main event had a lot of potential as Josh Emmett takes on Shane Burgos. Then we discussed the inclusion of veteran Jim Miller on the card as he takes of young and relative newcomer Roosevelt Roberts. This is a classic young vs old matchup. Clay Guida is also a veteran and he will bring energy into his fight with struggling Bobby Green.
Thanks for tuning in and we look forward to more in depth and thought provoking conversation from the world of MMA. Take care love ya and Bye for now!
