Week 15 in the NFL is shaping up to be an important one for a lot of teams. And we already got a glimpse of that Thursday night as the Tampa Bay Bucs lost to the Atlanta Falcons on a last second field goal.

There are other similar matchups in Week 15 where teams with playoff aspirations are playing subpar teams. But, this is the NFL, where anything can happen. The Dummies pick some of the games with major playoff implications.

The title says it all. We also did an emergency podcast Tuesday after word got out that Edwin Diaz was signing a deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers. But then Wednesday happened and word got around that Pete Alonso, the Mets' franchise leader in homers, is set to sign a 5-year, $155 million deal with the Baltimore Orioles. Just exactly what the hell is happening in Flushing?! The Dummies discuss.

After we recorded last week, we learned that the Mets signed Devin Williams to a 3-year, $51 million deal. Right now, he's the Mets closer. But was it a mistake for the Mets to chase Williams first without first resigning Edwin Diaz? The Dummies discuss.

We also chat about other offseason musings, specifically the current situation regarding Pete Alonso. He's meeting with the Red Sox and Orioles while at the Winter Meetings.

Our halftime topic is a review of the Netflix documentary Who Killed the Montreal Expos.

On the other side of the break, we discuss Notre Dame and the college football playoff, and quickly chat about the Jets and the rest of the NFL.

And finally, it's a different type of Mt. Rushmore: top 5 worst losses for the teams we root for that still affects us to this day.

We've come to a point with the New York Giants that the things happening off the field are more interesting than the games themselves. Will and Erik chat about the Giants' loss to the Patriots Monday night, whether Jaxson Dart is going to get himself killed, and what the hell is going on with Abdul Carter.

And then you know the drill. We give you our 5 best bets for the week, and with the playoffs looming, we take a look at the current playoff picture in the AFC and the NFC.

Please enjoy!

We know the MLB offseason is about to be filled with hotstove chatter with the Winter Meetings set to start next week, but the Mets have a lot of drama surrounding them in the offseason. While we recorded before the Devin Williams news broke, we discussed the recent New York Post report about Francisco Lindor. This guy continues to be a problem.

This week's halftime show is an old men rant of sorts.

On the other side of the break, we chat about recent comments from Josh Hart and Steve Kerr about the NBA season and injuries; St. John's men's basketball; the Jets and the rest of the NFL after Week 13.

Our Mt. Rushmore is the NFL QBs we trust the most in the 2-minute drill to win a game.

We decided that we're doing something different this week, and for the rest of the regular season: we're not going to give best bets for the local teams.

Let's face it, they've been dreadful, so why waste our energy. Now, we will preview the locals and discuss what happened this past week. But we thought it was better to give you five picks that don't involve the Jets and Giants.

Please enjoy, and Happy Thanksgiving!

Well, it's the episode that we've been putting off for weeks and it's finally here as we take a look back at the 2025 Mets season. And wouldn't you know it, we had a trade to discuss that fit nicely with the conversation as New York made its first major move of the offseason by trading Brandon Nimmo to the Texas Rangers for Marcus Semien.

We cover it all in this episode: the trade, the rise and fall of the 2025 New York Mets, the awful pitching, the questions around Edwin Diaz and Pete Alonso, and who stays and who goes. Please enjoy!

It's going to be really difficult for the Dummies to watch the local teams again this season. This is what happens when your teams are absolute trash year after year after year. While the Dummies gave their picks for the local teams for Week 12, they might be doing something other than watching the Jets and Giants on Sunday.

Of course, we get into the rest of the picks for Weeks 12 as teams begin really jockeying for playoff position as the season is about to enter the final stretch.
