Welcome in to another episode of 3 Strikes! On this episode we cover yet another saga in the Ja Morant Instagram Live story, and the disappointment that is felt around it. Also being discussed is the now set NBA Conference Finals, which is a rematch from the bubble and could provide us with a bubble finals rematch. Lastly we discuss a NASCAR Throwback weekend for the ages, with some great racing, and even better finishes in all 3 series' over the weekend.

3 Strikes has returned!! We figured it would be done when Cal and John were finishing up college, but John Kay and 3 Strikes have returned for your listening pleasure. The Heisman final 4 and the potential snubs from this 2022 NCAA College Football season get things rolling on this episode, and John ponders whether or not other skill positions deserve more love or if the award is slowly turning into a quarterback award. Then he looks at the College Football Playoff and his big questions about the 4 teams with a shot at the National Championship. Then lastly he tries to figure out the mess that is the NFL playoff race, and who wins the dumpster fire that is the NFC South. Make sure to go over to Facebook and follow the page, 3 Strikes.

Carson Wentz was traded to the Colts and we weigh the risk vs. reward. Finally we talk tennis, college hoops, and how this may be the best era of sports ever.

After maneuvering some roadblocks the boys finally get to sit back down and talk about the sports world. Tom Brady once again is a Super Bowl champ and looks like he isn’t slowing down any. There could be a lot of quarterback shake up in the NFL now that the season is done so we look at some candidates to get moved, and we also take a quick glance at the MVP race in the NBA.

The MLB has had a hectic offseason up to this point and the boys talk about some of the big moves including all the dealing the Padres have been doing. The trades don’t just stop as we take a look at the Harden trade and how it may possibly not be ideal for Brooklyn, and finally we make predictions for the championship games in the NFL and look ahead to the Super Bowl.

Last podcast of 2020, and for the first time John and Cal get to talk about the NBA draft as soon as it happens and there is a lot to unpack with this draft. We look at almost all 60 picks and talk about the picks that we love and don’t love. Spoiler we love a lot of picks because here at 3 Strikes we love potential.

We also look over the MLB awards and who we were pleasantly surprised seeing hoist some hardware. Then on the gridiron we look at if the Steelers 8-0 record makes them legit contenders and same thing with some of the sneaky top 25 teams in the NCAA.
