Ahem … is this thing on? Can everyone hear me? Yeah? Ok, Good. For the first time in 2023, it’s officially a NASCAR race week!
Buckle up, strap up, pull those damn belts tight one more time (shoutout to Larry Mac), because we’re less than one week away from an actual green flag.
Yes, it’s in LA when it should be in Daytona – there’s a reason people leave California for Florida, you know – but we’ll let that slide here. Don’t want to dampen the mood on our first race week of the year.
The offseason is over, boys and girls.

The NFL’s best broadcaster is poised to be pushed out to make way for Tom, and that’s unfair.
Enjoy Greg Olsen while you can, because the NFL’s best broadcaster could be two weeks away from being out of a job. Olsen was hired to keep the seat warm for Tom Brady, seen as the greatest prize in football broadcasting (for some reason), and now Olsen has proven that he’s the best, most dynamic, and engaging broadcaster we’ve had in years.

After a pair of games that were dramatic for opposite reasons, this year’s Super Bowl matchup is set.
Among others, the Bucs are considering five young assistants for their offensive coordinator role, including former Dallas OC Kellen Moore.
Eli Manning joins The Carton Show after the division championship games, and shares his thoughts on these big matchups. They start with the San Francisco 49ers, who suffered yet another blow at the quarterback spot against the Philadelphia Eagles. Brock Purdy was out early with an injury to his elbow, and Eli shares his thoughts on what Purdy was going through, and ho the 49ers couldn’t have been prepared to be down two quarterbacks. Plus, Eli talks going back on his word to never return to Philadelphia for a game.
After a 3-game losing streak to the Cincinnati Bengals, the Kansas City Chiefs are able to pull off an important win. Patrick Mahomes carried the Chiefs to an AFC Title win, and he did it on a sprained ankle. Craig Carton and James Jones talk the highlights of the game, including key plays missed by the Cincinnati Bengals that led to the Chiefs’ win.
The Philadelphia Eagles have stamped their ticket to Super Bowl LVII, soundly defeating the San Francisco 49ers 31-7 in the NFC Championship Game. Craig Carton is joined by James Jones to talk the highlights of the game, and together they decide how much of this loss might be on the Niners’ defense. With both Brock Purdy getting hurt early, and 4th-string QB Josh Johnson going out, Craig decides how much of a chance the 49ers had without a quarterback.
