06: Is Tim Riggins the Travis Kelce of the Dillon Panthers?

This podcast has secretly been a front for me to eventually talk about Friday Night Lights, the best program ever to grace American network television. And if you’ve known me (Caitlin) long enough, I’ve probably forced you to watch the pilot at least once. Brendan has finally decided to see what the fuck I’ve been talking about for all these years, and today we’re getting into season 1 a bit. 

But back in the year of our Lorde 2024, football is still happening IRL! Before this Sunday's Bills v. Chiefs matchup, we dive into the long history of this rivalry, why its still so heated, and why we all, as a league, hate Patrick Mahomes. Clear Eyes, Full Hearts, Can’t Lose. 

The fuck did we talk about: 

• Brendan is watching Friday Night Lights the TV show for the 1st time

• Caitlin is watching Friday Night Lights the TV show for the ~50th time

• Tim Riggins, the last fullback 

• Camryn Bynum, a safety on the Vikings, hit em w the Raygun in the endzone 

• Why are we sending a Giants v. Panthers game to Berlin?

• The Niners are self destructing

• Should we do birth charts of important games

• The history of the Bills v. Chiefs rivalry is quite long

• Here’s that devastating photo of Diggs watching the Chiefs celebrate 

• The Kansas City Chiefs are now the most 'hated’ team in the NFL, data shows

• How did the Chiefs get away with keeping their racist name, when the Commanders couldnt?
