We're through five weeks of the NFL season, and you might never see something as dumb as what the NFC East just went through. The Cowboys lost at home to the Buccaneers on Thursday Night Football, with a contract employee getting fired for calling Dallas's performance "embarrassing" as Dak Prescott walked by. Then, the Eagles lost a game where they took the lead with 8 seconds left and their opponent was out of timeouts. Finally, the Giants and Commanders played each other and ended in a tie, with both teams making boneheaded plays in overtime when a field goal would have won it.

And so, in Week 5 of the 2026 NFL season, the NFC East became the first division in league history to not win a single game despite two of the division's teams playing each other. Truly spectacular.

Plus, Sean recounts his Bahamas vacation, the White Sox and WNBA playoffs were full of silliness, and we do a live taste test of a new product from H-E-B.

We recorded this episode in advance because Seany Boy is headed on vacation! So, there's less topical sports chatter than usual, but never fear! We're sharing some excellent board game recs, diving into the latest Jackbox, and still getting a heavy dose of sports hijinks courtesy of the 2026 Chicago White Sox.

We're also talking the MLB and WNBA playoffs, and a very "pointed" controversy in the latter. And we ruminate over the walk-up songs we'd choose. What would you want to hear as you strolled to the plate during a baseball game?

The MLB playoffs are upon us! Can Sean name all 12 teams participating in this year's postseason?

We're also diving into some cute on-field moments, some hilariously juvenile celebrations, and some silly penalties that perhaps swung games.

Plus, Joey runs the Run the Runway 5k on at the Corpus Christi International Airport, and the Cowboys also somehow lost against the Ravens in regulation after tying the game with seven seconds left. Sean vows to quit football. We'll see how long it lasts.
