In our Season 2 premiere, guest Dylan Thuras, cofounder of Atlas Obscura, takes us off road and into the minds of the artists who literally reshaped parts of the Southwest.

This week, Ron, Pete, and Elliott explores Jim Bowden's recent article grading MLB teams' offseasons, sparking a debate on whether the Cubs truly deserve an A-minus and if the Cardinals' inactivity justifies their F grade. They delve into the implications of team movements, the Cubs' bullpen needs, and the Cardinals' potential trade scenarios.
Switching gears, the guys then tackle the ongoing Chicago Bears coaching search, pondering how the team might navigate the hiring process and what potential candidates could bring to the table. With a mix of skepticism and hope, they discuss the Bears' strategy and the importance of getting the right leadership in place. (TRANSLATION: "How are the Bears going to screw up this time?")
Finally, the Team shares their thoughts on the broader sports landscape, touching on the Padres' hat options, potential player signings, and the ever-entertaining John Gruden. They even discuss the possibility of a Team of Rivals field trip to an A's game in Sacramento.

The morning after the Cubs make a major offseason move, Ron and Pete jump on, even though Elliott is nowhere to be found. Yes, they're going to go deep on the Cubs' signing of Carson Kelly on Friday night. In this week's episode, the founders kick off Season Nine of the podcast with a lively discussion on the Cubs' surprising acquisition of Kyle Tucker. This game-changing move could redefine the Cubs' offseason, but is there more work to be done?

While there's little left of the 2024 MLB season – for the Cubs and the Cards anyway – today's episode is dedicated to honoring the legendary James Earl Jones.

It's a joyous time in Chicago because – despite their miniscule playoff odds – the Cubs have been playing fun baseball. However, there is no joy in Mudville, as one of the National League's crown jewels is experiencing shocking levels of disinterest from the Best Fans in Baseball™. How much longer can DW Sticks put up with the incompetence of a front office that trades for Tommy Pham, subsequently designates him for assignment (poor Pete!), mishandles Jordan Walker, and trades Dylan Carlson and releases the return (who is – of course – signed by the Cubs)? Thankfully, we have Ron's Soccer Minute to bring you a welcome respite, updating listeners on City's thrilling 4-4 draw against the Portland Timbers and previewing their upcoming match against the LA Galaxy.

First up, Ron and Pete tackle the current state of the NL Central. It's no secret that the division has been struggling, and they break down exactly why it's been so disappointing. Ron sums it up perfectly: "The NL Central is terrible. I mean, just utterly, utterly terrible." Next, they shift focus to the Chicago White Sox. With their season in a downward spiral, is it possible that they set a new record for losses, and is it okay for fans to root for such futility? But it's not all doom and gloom! In this week's installment of Ron's Soccer Minute, they dive into the exhilarating world of soccer. St. Louis City SC recently faced off against Inter Miami, and what a match it was!

With the team struggling to find the back of the net, Ron breaks down what's working, what's not, and whether the league has caught up to their tactics. And finally: Are we a Saturday morning livestream? Whether you're Rivalry faithful, a baseball purist, or just here for the laughs, this episode has a little something for everyone.

Відтворити Пізніше Відтворити Пізніше Списки Подобається ПодобаєтьсяBuckle up, baseball aficionados, as the Team of Rivals Podcast unpacks the latest and greatest (or perhaps the worst) from MLB, including the bombshell that Shohei Ohtani and the Dodgers might be the sport's biggest villains. The Cubs, on the other hand, are proving to be a delightful surprise, earning the title of one of the most objectively enjoyable teams to watch this season. This week, Ron, Elliott, and Pete take a turn down memory lane with a candid chat about which players from their beloved teams irk them the most. From current nuisances to historical headaches, no player is safe from their unfiltered critiques. And if that wasn't enough for you, the guys also take aim at the announcer's booth, praising the calls of Boog Sciambi and debating the merit of the voices that bring the game to life. Plus, a shocking revelation about the Oakland A's future home has the trio contemplating a road trip that could go down in podcast legend. Don't miss out on the banter, insights, and the occasional off-topic rant. We live-streamed this week, so you can rewatch this episode on YouTube , Rumble , or Facebook .

Strap in for a rollercoaster ride as Ron, Elliott, and Pete tackle the elephant in the room amid a sea of MLB chaos. In this episode, we're bypassing the usual banter on injuries and player movements to zone in on the Shohei Ohtani saga that's got the baseball world holding its breath. Is the golden boy of the Los Angeles Dodgers in a gambling mess, and if so, what does that mean for him, the team, and the integrity of the game? From the potential implications on Ohtani's mega contract to the eerie silence from MLB's top brass, we dissect the swirling rumors and the deafening lack of concrete information. Plus, we can't help but draw parallels to historical precedents and wonder aloud about the possible double standards at play. As we ponder the future of baseball's poster boy, we also touch upon the state of the sport at the grassroots level, and how the game's changing landscape might be impacting its very soul. Join Ron, Pete, and Elliot as they delve deep into the controversy, share their unfiltered opinions, and even bring in some legal expertise to shed light on the contractual complexities involved.

It's been a month since Ron, Elliott, and Pete have been willing to record, so they try their best to understand why. They discuss Scott Boras finally overplaying his hand, X/Twitter, Rob Manfred, and the new Nike jerseys, but it ultimately comes down to a lack of interest. You see, baseball has lost that lovin' feelin', and the guys try to get to the root of the matter. Is it the lack of moves this offseason? The new jerseys that look like the free ones they give away at games? Is it too much exposure to social media fandom? Sydney Sweeney? (No, it's DEFINITELY not her!) So what is it?

The title says it all: THE WORST episode in our history, and the bar was already pretty low. (Let's be honest: It's all Pete's fault.) Where has our motivation gone for baseball? Ron, Elliott, and Pete try to figure out once again why they've lost their connection to our national pastime, while simultaneously mining the incredibly interesting topics of what the Cubs will do with their 40-man roster and Brandon Crawford checking into Busch Stadium III hospice. (Thoughts and prayers for his well-being.) Yeah, they talk about the cancellation of Respawn's Star Wars game, Scott Boras, Shohei Ohtani, City FC, and the Bears quarterback situation, but it all comes back to a loss of sports passion.

They are saying the right things now, but why didn't they do so last year? (Because they're full of shit?) And finally, a word of advice for the Bears: Don't f$&k up that first pick! Please?

Ron, Elliott, and Pete (with an assist from Ron's son, Braden) cover a lot of territory on this episode. In the midst of a potentially pivotal offseason, the Cardinals announce … a concert. Are the Cubs going to do anything with what's left of free agency? The fans on both sides of the rivalry are getting awfully whiny. And how will changes to streaming rights affect the Cards and the rest of Major League Baseball.

How about a little holiday cheer while you prep for your New Year celebrations? One week before Shohei Ohtani signed with the Dodgers, Ron and Pete jumped on to lament how frozen the market has been because of Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto. And while he’s willing to admit that he was wrong about Ohtani’s skill level, Ron is not a fan. Same goes for Yamamoto. They also set the stage for the eventual rage podcast directed at both Jed and Mo. It’s going to be a fun Season Eight in 2024. Follow us on X , GETTR , and Instagram . Like us on Facebook .

In a super double secret probation type of way, Jed Hoyer pulled off a doozy right before this year's GM meetings. Nobody saw it coming, not even the "insiders": Craig Counsell is the new manager of the Chicago Cubs. He'll move 90 miles south and be $40 million richer for it. Be warned, though: A relationship with the Cubs can get weird. Just ask Dusty, Lou, Dale, Rick, Joe, Rossy… The Cardinals? Well, that isn't even interesting enough to call "weird". They have a ton of work to do. Watch this week's video on YouTube , Rumble , or Facebook . Follow us on X , GETTR , and Instagram . Like us on Facebook . Check out Gateway City Sports.
