Colin is joined by Danny Parkins, host of “First Things First” on FS1.

They start with the red-hot 24-1 Oklahoma City Thunder and why they are positioned to go on a 5+ year run of sustained success due to smart management & analytics rather than money like the Dodgers do in baseball (3:00). They debate whether the goal of parity is achievable and whether it’s good for sports (9:30).

They discuss why the influx of Asian fans really helps the MLB but the international stars in the NBA doesn’t move the needle in the same way, and the varying importance of star players to their respective sports (13:00).

They weigh in on Notre Dame’s complaints about being left out of the college football playoff despite not being a member of a conference and why the whining is not surprising (27:30). They also discuss how the playoff & conference realignment has led to the death of bowl games and some great rivalries (34:00).

They talk about why the “influencer” nature of Shedeur Sanders scared teams away from drafting him and why he’s proven to be much better than GM’s and scouts thought he’d be, but Danny cautions that it’s too soon to label him a franchise quarterback (40:30).

Finally, they highlight the tremendous progress and improvement Caleb Williams has made in year two. Colin argues that his comp is a “shorter Josh Allen” and Danny counters with a “young Aaron Rodgers” (53:00)
