About this episode

Mike Valenti discusses his bet on the Pistons to win the Finals and explores sports playoff chokers.

Mike kicked off the show with his belief in the Pistons and the bet he is going to make for them to win the Finals, only if David is in on it, because Valenti intends to donate the potential proceeds to Greater Life Church. The guys spent the second hour talking about the biggest playoffs chokers in sports history not named James Harden. They went back and forth on this until the third hour where they covered a multitude of topics before they returned to Valenti's Pistons bet in the final hour to wrap this week up.
