This week’s podcast was recorded Wednesday night. You can listen to our show on  iTunes ,  Spotify ,  Google Play , and  SoundCloud .

Not at all surprisingly, it was his first appearance since rejoining the AFL after taking one-year hiatus in 2015 and then taking over another manager’s team in 2016. Sean has been terrible ever since returning. He was certainly set back by an awful 2015 roster that didn’t have any good keeper options. Then he made the mistake of not keeping anybody (which included Stefon Diggs) in 2017. But it seems he’s finally righted that ship and is well on his way to his first playoff appearance since losing his only postseason game in 2014. Since the matchup between Sean and Anthony Battle was the game of the week, I’l...
