With no real games this past week we are forced to talk about the Pro Bowl (a little bit) but we review every NFL team and how they did this year.

Due to more technical difficulties, my mic cuts out right before the 40 minute mark and we had to do this show in 2 parts this week. But we got it done!

We go live this week to discuss a great week 16 and preview week 17.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy as we are coming into the last 2 weeks of the longest season in NFL history!
The boys break down the beginning of the home stretch of the NFL regular season..and strive to find the link between attractiveness, coaching, and game picks
An illness delayed us but the show must go on! Like Michael Jordan in the NBA Finals powering through, Josh takes the mic despite the flu to unite with Daniel and bring you another week of the UNFL. No COVID here, but the same can't be said for many NFL teams. We break down week 14, preview week 15, and make fun of some bad actors and coaches this week.
A return to normal (ish). Special return guest Ruben Meza joins the guys to give a unique insight into the last weeks NFL action and and even more unique algorithm for picks for the coming week of football.

Another week of madness, another week of the U(n)FL breaking down all of the action. At least now we know we know nothing.
Does anyone know anything about what to expect in the NFL this season?! Are there any good teams in the AFC or the whole league for that matter?!

Your friends the UnFL are here to try to explain what the heck that was last week in the sport we all love (or love to hate). Also a conversation on the Aaron Rodgers situation.
Football redeemed itself this week! Josh and Daniel recap a great week of action where we were wrong about many things. One thing we are not wrong about is that football is better than baseball! And another one of Josh's many children makes our guest picks this week.
The guys review the downer of the week that was in NFL but get you ready for next weeks games. Picks and thoughts on the WNBA parade to open.

Here is where we talk about Jon Gruden! Trigger warning millennials! We talk a lot about Bible principles in this episode and how racial stereotypes have no place in our lives! But one of us might not feel how you think we should! Listen to find out!
Josh and Daniel recap the NFL action of week 5 (sans Gruden). Another week of symphonic athletic artistry for us to enjoy and dissect. Truly double negative.
Daniel and Josh review an awesome week 4, and preview week 5. We talk some Urban Meyer controversy, discuss the pansification of America thanks to people like Vic Fangio, and see if we can pick games better than a coin flip.
Week 3 is in the books and we preview week 4! Josh's 10 year old daughter makes picks that will probably be as good as her dad's and we go down a Norm MacDonald rabbit hole. Oh yeah... How 'bout them Cowboys!!
We're back to review week 2 and preview week 3. Another live show with a special guest from Texas!
Daniel and Josh broadcast live to recap week 1 and preview week 2. Some unexpected things happen but we get this show done like champions! I think it is obvious who the real heroes are...

In the void of the NFL off-season we attempt to enrich our lives.....with more sports. Join us on a journey through why we (might) try to love Americas past time. Special guest Michael Ortman
We're back! At least two thirds of us. No Gary for now so we are NFL heavy. But we also get into the plan for this season of The UNFL which will be exactly what Gary envisioned when we started!
Wow! The NFL is over! Now we can all get back to living. Life will go on, but reality will be a tough pill to swallow. Thanks for listening!
I'm back this week. Well, I got plenty of things done around the house. My rain gutters are falling down and of course all the rain gutter guys are booked! Wait, what am I talking about? How could I forget that the cactus in my house is dying! Wow, almost forgot.
COVID-19 has struck Gary! Well, probably not, but he is sick. Just Daniel and Josh this time so it is going to be football heavy. Josh thinks the divisional round of the NFL play-offs is the greatest weekend in sports and Gary isn't there to show just how ridiculous that thought is! We talk climate change, faith in sports, and coaching changes. Gary is going to hate this...
The NFL is coming to a merciful end. Much like the coronavirus (kinda). This week Daniel returns, and it was an interesting week btw, football aside. 2021 is taking over where 2020 left off. Good times....
Well, Daniel is a new father and he'll be dealing with late night crying and diaper changing. So this week we bring in a new guest. But this time he is a truly UnFL type. This outta be painful for Josh! Oh yeah, it's the final week of the NFL regular season. Look at me, I almost forgot!
Love Zoom? We'll here's another zoom edition of the UnFL. Don't worry this NFL mess is almost over. This week we beat the Carson Wentz saga into the ground. You would think this is the Carson Wentz (west coast) edition podcast! What ever is the UnFL show gonna do if he ends up being traded? God help us! Emails are always fun and we got more! Don't forget to send us money btw.... don't be cheap!
Just Daniel and Josh so this is football heavy! We discuss Josh's weird attitude toward favorite colors, the great week of football, Daniel's new QB, a coach that should have been fired a month ago, and possibly the best game of the year so far! Josh messes up some music but if you love football you will love this show. Sorry Gary...
Oh you're still listening? So Gavin Newsome announced a lockdown due to COVID so this show is Zoom recorded until further notice. We will offer up more of the same meat and potatoes and even a little pudding. But "if you don't eat your meat you can't have any pudding. How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?".... Just google it.
Start listening at 7:56! The first 3 minutes is dead air (literally nothing) and the next 5 is us working out technical glitches live on the air. Don't bother with it. Thanks Gary! But we still have Anthony and all 3 members of the show now. Enjoy!
Gary and family might have the 'VID, Daniel is starting quarantine in anticipation of the new baby, we had the longest week in NFL history, a new special guest and technical difficulties. The show must go on!!
We got more of the same as before except different. New Guest and updates on emails. Yeah yeah and football talk. I'm really getting tired of this season!
Guess what's on my mind? If you guessed football you haven't been listening to this show. Honestly I guess I'm wondering what was running down former mayor Rudy Giuliani's face. Anywho, I figured you may be wondering what we thought of week 10 of the NFL so I decided to post this episode. Email and football nonsense will be discussed.
This week another new guest arrives to the show. Will this Gen Z'er care about the NFL? Or should he instead be looking to improve his skill set in any other endeavor? And of course we talk about pic's and whatever... also this week another email review. There are fans out there that want our advice about home life and marriage. Who knew?
I didn't even bother to say what. You already know. However! We have some Gen z's here and some emails to read. So sit back, relax and fall asleep to some NFL talk!
This week we discuss where we like to do our shopping. Are you a Home Depot or Lowes kinda shopper? Oh, also week 7 football. BOOOOOORING! We make more predictions, more meaningless commentary and give week 7 analysis. BTW if you we so inclined to wager on this stuff.... You'd be broke.
So this week we have a twist. I decided to sit this one out. Josh and Daniel will blab about the NFL and while I'm on vacation. Where did I go during the pandemic you ask? Not to and NFL game, that's for sure! I went to the kitchen to grab a beer. Oops, I missed the show. With the generous benefit package we offer at the UnFL I decided to take a little paid time off. Also regain my sanity! This week I'm sure its more of the same jargon. Enjoy?
We pretty much only talk NFL this week. So if you skip it I totally get it. I'm over it too. But whatever. This week we discuss the injuries to players and the fact that half of the league is made up of below average teams (well at least I do). But hey, below average sounds like the IQ of most of the players! Enjoy!
This week we get right to the point! Is Rock dead? We'll too bad Eddie is! Now what? Where else will I get my entertainment? The NFL? I might as well JUMP... off a ledge, instead of watching the NFL!! Peace out Eddie!
Week 3 is a touch late all because of the fires, and the pandemic, and the election, and our editing staff is getting laid off cause they won't approve a stimulus package! But hey, week 3 commentary is here. Also, we interview a Gen Z'er who plays fantasy football and he doesn't even care about football. Go figure. Surprise surprise, the new generation doesn't care. Great! Enjoy!
The NFL rages on like it or not. This week we discuss a few obvious conspiracies that the NFL is backing. Of course they won't admit it! COVID isn't real remember? At least that's what they want you to believe as they force a full contact sport down your throat. This week we cover more boring NFL games and we waste our time trying to predict next weeks games. Does it matter? Are you writing this down? For gods sake I hope not! Get a life!
The NFL season has started and week 1 is in the books. So is my patience. I gotta sit through how many weeks of this? Please tell me there will be a shutdown! This week we discuss the meaningless wins and losses of all 32 teams. We'll make predictions on the week two games that will not impact your life regardless of any of the outcomes. So why make predictions? It's really just an exercise in futility. We some how think if we pick teams based on hours of mindless football watching, you'll come to respect us as experts. Experts in what? Who cares! I still gotta go to work Monday!
As much as it pains me to say this... The NFL is going to start. I guess we gotta address this. You know, who's gonna win, who's the better team blah blah. This week we make predictions, Daniel and Josh use reason and knowledge, and I pick teams using pure apathy (and proud of it). Hey at least we don't mention that plight on humanity 'Fantasy football'.
Enjoy?
Finally! No NFL jabber. This week we talk about whatever I want. Josh and Daniel struggle with trying not to talk NFL. In fact, they loved it! Maybe, just maybe they are starting to care less! I couldn't!
Yes, we know! We are extra late on this episode! This whole pandemic garbage is ruining the show that's trying to ruin the NFL! This week/month were gonna talk about whether the NFL season will be modified or even games cancelled. So sit back, relax and lets skin this cat!
Recent events have shed light on the fact that social justice or lack thereof has changed the way we view our world. How will the NFL deal with the potential for protesting during the season? Or will there even be a season? Also this week we discuss the top 10 most offensive things about the NFL. And a bonus! Hardly any pandemic talk! At least we take a break from one issue!
Take a break from rioting and listen to this weeks show! This week we talk about the glut of police arrests of NFL players and drug use. Wow a real shocker! Drugs in the NFL? Who'da thought? Daniel and Josh make plenty of excuses this week. But what's new? Without drugs and the nuances of law, how will the NFL survive? Who cares! Die NFL!
NFL stands for "Need Fans Live"! When the league is already headed towards peak apathy, will anyone attend live football games in America due to the Covid 19 outbreak (not you Arizona, I said America)? Meanwhile, A certain someone who's household name should be in the mud, escapes mainstream backlash once again while he blatantly ignores basic ethics for the purpose of making a buck. Who is it? Find out in this episode as we hear Josh make more excuses for anyone who has their greedy hands in the cookie jar. Also the first Covid 19 draft party! We draft the best and worst things we've hated or enjoyed about social distancing and lockdown.
We must apologize for being late with this weeks episode. Why? Because unless you've been living under a rock in the Mariana Trench there's kind of a thing with a virus and a pandemic blah blah. So we decided to do a ZOOM episode because we figured you probably haven't had enough ZOOM in your life and your jonesing for more! This week we avoid talking a whole lot of NFL since the NFL is not important and never will be. Daily life has never been weirder and social distancing is not fun, except for when you're at work where your boss can't just roll into your office whenever he feels like it to check if you're working. I'm not... So stay safe and enjoy.
What's the one thing that everyone hates? You're right! The Red Hot Chili Peppers! But besides them, most people hate officiating. One of us loves it however, because its ruining the game. Too many flags and too much game stoppage. But what, if anything, can be done about it? Hopefully nothing. But this week we discuss the state of the NFL and its use of yellow flags strewn about the field. Also this week, more interviews as Josh goes out on the road to find the perfect example of apathy and carelessness towards the NFL. Can he possibly find millennials in THE city that is made for football Dallas, Texas? Tune in and turn off that Anthony Kiedis babel!
The NFL is about to negotiate a "Collective bargaining agreement".... blah blah who cares right? Do you? This week we discuss what that means and how it affects the NFL. AND! For the first time we go on the road and interview people and ask them if they really care about the NFL and whether it's still viable.... at least in the frozen tundra of Minnesota.
COVID-19 or Coronavirus is a pandemic. This episode we take a break from all the NFL hate and remind everyone life is precious. And as for the NFL.... not so precious. Stay healthy UnFL fans!!
So you play fantasy football, huh? But Why? It's a total waste of time, or is it? In this week we discuss the Pro's and Con's of playing fantasy football. Does it hurt the league? Does it make it more interesting? Or does it just make you dumber? Also in this week's episode, POLICE BLOTTER! All the latest on who's going or been to jail. All in just 35 min.
When the NFL moves its teams around at will, does anyone care? Should anyone care? Also in this episode, the XFL. Why does it exist? And how pathetic are you if you actually watch/care about it?
Hate the NFL? One guy who hates it, one guy who loves it, and one guy who loves it most of the time argue the future and state of the game. In this inaugural episode, we introduce ourselves and explain why we needed to start what is sure to be an interesting podcast about the NFL. Do you hate the NFL? Come join us as we take on the ugly business that is professional football in the United States.
