“He IS Bob Davie”

Sprout and Eric had a long debate if they should even post a show this week. If the Irish don’t show up to play, should they have to?

Fortunately, Magic Hat was able to convince them by sending some free beer their way. Many thanks to Gallagher and crew. (Find your own Magic Hat here.)

This week, the Loyal Sons debate the minute differences between Weis and Faust in their Coaches Poll and they talk about their upcoming USC tailgate with Three Guys in a Basement. (tSAS is cohosting the Watermelon Smashing Contest.)

Tuesday Teaser: We Got Sweet Swag

What could possibly cheer up the Loyal Sons after such a disappointing weekend? How ’bout free swag and swig? Last week a fan sent in some cupcakes and started a new trend it would appear. Thanks to the folks over at Magic Hat for making this weeks donation to the Golden Bucket!

This weeks show will be posted a little earlier as Sprout and Eric will be traveling to Cali for the rest of the week. Tune in later today (Tuesday) to see them discuss the minute differences between Charlie and Gerry.

“They’ll Be Just Fine”

A win is a win. Everyone knows this. But damn…that was a close one. Not exactly the blowout the Loyal Sons were hoping for. Thankfully, the Irish have a cupcake team in Syracuse coming up. Oh, and a fan sent in some cupcakes for the guys. Great stuff.

This week, Eric and Sprout take a look at the basketball team as they kick off their season and see how the football team can improve from their achievements.

Tuesday Teaser: Cupcakes

Wednesday is just around the corner, which means it’s almost time for another show.

This week, Eric and Sprout will take a quick peek at the basketball team and come up with some creative ways the football team can learn from their success.

And their biggest fan sent in some cupcakes.

What’s Next?

Sprout and Eric drank with a fan up in Boston who provided some incite on what needs to be happening on the field. After all, an embarrassing shut-out and a few Jager-bombs will make anyone feel like they should have Charlie Weis’ job.

“Step Back from the Ledge”

Everyone is freaking out. And rightfully so. But the Loyal Sons aren’t willing to give up just yet. They are no Weis apologists, but Sprout and Eric still think there are some redeeming actions the Irish can take to salvage some of this season.

Oh, and Sprout gets drunk and yells at a “fan”.
