College football celebrated Rivalry Week, and we saw a ton of flag planting. And fighting...after the media told these teams how much they hate each other.

Plus, remember that final Bears drive on Thanksgiving? We sure had a lot of silly things happen this past week. Welcome to December.

For our fellow Austinites, you can check out I Live Here I Give Here to find local nonprofits to support during Giving Tuesday!

Joey has 10 players on his rec league team, but only four showed up for his most recent game. Where was everyone else? Why do so many people feel okay saying they'll do something—like participate in a league, accompany you to a game, or join a watch party—and then back out with no warning or heads up? These people are missing a common courtesy that should be ingrained in all of us.

The Cowboys have had a ton of silly things happen to them over the past couple of weeks. Then, they went out and won perhaps the dumbest game ever. Amazing.

We're also sharing a Mike Leach quote that might set the record for number of times using the word "dumb," and we get way too into the intricacies of tuning a guitar. Plus, it's Thanksgiving week, so we're sharing unusual things we're thankful for.

We're smack dab in the middle of the NFL and college football seasons. Why are we still seeing players drop the ball before they reach the end zone? How has this happened more than once in the history of football?

Plus, Joey gets unexpected guests at the house, a fun fact about those tall skeletons you may have seen in people's yards, and a rude trash talker during rec league basketball.

Astute American listeners may have noticed there was an election last week, with the President all the way to local politicians up for office.

Trying to talk about sports after the chaos of the past week feels like a silly endeavor, but we're gonna try our best! After all, the dumb moments don't stop.

First things first: If you're in the U.S., please vote!

Now, for the episode: Mookie Betts makes a catch in the crowd, and fans try to break his wrist to wrestle the ball from his grasp. Jason Kelce gets asked a homophobic question. Why do fans think they can treat players so poorly and not face repercussions?

Thankfully, in both cases, the offending parties were punished — in the latter, Jason Kelce smashed the guy’s phone on the ground, which you love to see. But still, this is not the behavior anyone needs.

Plus, outfielders losing track of outs in an inning and prematurely throwing the ball into the stands, throwbacks to both How I Met Your Mother and Sister, Sister and the best way to respond to trash getting thrown on the field.

It’s a spooktacular of dumb sports moments! We’re covering the Boston Celtics playing angry basketball, load management already being a thing one week into the NBA season, Chicago Bears safety Tyrique Stevenson taunting fans while a Hail Mary was happening, Sean’s Dallas Cowboys, and lackluster coverage around the World Series even though it’s got the two most popular teams in it.

We’re also dissecting underrated Halloween candies and relating to each other’s lack of conditioning in our respective shorts leagues. Luckily, the two pair together quite nicely.

It was a busy weekend of dumb moments in sports, but Sean doesn’t remember perhaps the dumbest of them all - by the time Texas Longhorns fans were throwing trash on the football field, he was already blacked out. Oops.

We’re also discussing Cheryl Reeve criticizing officiating after her Minnesota Lynx lost to the New York Liberty in the WNBA Finals, why it’s okay to boo football players when they’re not good people, and an awkward moment when someone gets injured during a pickup basketball game.

Picture this: You’re enjoying a nice baseball game, and the best player from the opposing team hits a home run. It’s soaring through the sky and lands directly in your hands. Wow, what a memory you have! Until everyone in your section tries to coerce you into throwing the ball back, because it wasn’t your team that hit the dinger.

Plus, Sean and Joey attended the same housewarming party, but only one of them did wine shots at the party and then got a Krabby Patty on the way back. Can you guess who?
