We do a quick recap of the NFL draft that went down over the weekend.  How'd the Skins and Jets do?  Shifting to the ongoing playoffs... Are the Caps in trouble?  Does the Thunder have a legit shot?  And we are only a few weeks away from the end of Lost.  Can it possibly live up to the hype?

Jason Taylor: Dancin' With the Jets

http://deadspin.com/5512003/jets-courtship-of-jason-taylor-is-pissing-everyone-off

For the record, Tessel is in favor of this move but I think Gonz is against it. Look, the Jets ARE one or two players away from winning the Super Bowl and JT could be that player. The Jets and Taylor could have been enemies in the past, but then again, so were Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart.

Our 2010 MLB season preview, the NCAA tournament and Lost

Listen to the April 5, 2010 Podcast

This week on We're Just Sayin...

• Iz is loving the weather
• Tessel proved his point that no one cares about the Winter Olympics anymore
• Gonz questions the patrons at a certain restaurant

Gonz has a very important question this week and we try and solve it.  We are pumped because the 2010 Major League Baseball season is beginning and all our teams are in first place (at least as of Sunday afternoon).  The NCAA tournament is coming to a close and so is Lost... which one will have a better ending?

The new A-Team trailer

How can you not be excited, we are!

Wii, the NCAA tournament and Lost

Listen to the March 29, 2010 Podcast

This week on We're Just Sayin...

• Iz is starving
• Tessel doesn't get these "tattoos"
• Gonz has become a Facebook stalker

Gonz's stream of thought makes a return appearance and this week we start off with a discussion about the merits of the Nintendo Wii.  Somehow the transition goes to woman's college basketball and eventually lands on the greatest sports tournament, the NCAA men's bracket.  As we gear up for the end of Lost, our discussion this week is a whopping 15 minutes!

Lost: Baywatch Style

Combines 2 of our favorite things... Lost and cheezy theme songs.

Gonz's Stream of Thought, March Madness and Lost

Listen to the March 22, 2010 Podcast

This week on We're Just Sayin...

• Iz will be seeing Pearl Jam in May 
• Tessel congratulates Jennifer Aniston's leap to movie stardom
• Gonz hates people blessing the nice weather

We debut a new segment on the show entitled, "Gonz's Stream of Thought."  The Iz and Tessel have as much prior knowledge as you about what will come out of Gonz's mouth.  I believe we broach drink buying etiquette and the legitimacy of ESPN's news department among other topics.  Of course we have to discuss the NCAA tournament as the first 2 rounds of games come to a close.  Is this the best opening weekend in recent memory?  As always we wrap things up with more Lost theories.

Lala Land, NCAA Tournament Expansion, the Oscars and Lost

Listen to the March 8, 2010 Podcast

This week on We're Just Sayin...

• Iz bids farewell to the 2009-10 George Mason men's basketball team
• Tessel wants an easier way to split checks
• Gonz saw some indecent exposure in public

The Iz is back from Los Angeles and ready to provide tales of adventure and intrigue.  Rumors are swirling that the NCAA wants to expand the tournament, we don't agree to say the least.  Speaking of expansion, the Oscars were this week and the best picture award went from 5 to 10 nominees.  Is more a good thing?  And we close on the one thing we can agree on...Lost is the best show on TV.  Do you agree?

Tiger's Presser, the New Look Wizards and Our Lost Analysis

Listen to the Feb 21, 2010 Podcast

This week on We're Just Sayin...

• Iz is heading off to Los Angeles for the coming week
• Tessel has grown?
• Gonz despises the curling fad

We give our take on Tiger Wood's press conference and what it ultimately means for him going forward.  The new look Wizards have moved forward after trading Caron Butler, Antawn Jamison and Brendan Haywood, but will they be any better?  Or does this spell more disappointment for the fans?  And our weekly discussion on all things Lost as we try to piece together the final season.

Valentine's Day, the Winter Olympics and primetime TV

Listen to the Feb 14, 2010 Podcast

This week on We're Just Sayin...

• Iz is thankful the snow stopped falling
• Tessel is a huge fan of a dueling piano bars
• Gonz is digging the new Vampire Weekend album

After a week absence due to the Snowpocalypse that hit DC over the weekend, the crew is back at it just in time for Valentine's Day. Recording live from the residence of Gonz, we briefly discussed Eric's valentine's day plans which hopefully we will find more about! The Winter Olympics are in full swing and Gonz can't get enough of Johnny Weir. Meantime, the Iz has developed a new hatred for Jim from The Office. Don't believe me? I dare you to listen.

iPad, the final season of Lost and MMA vs. WWE vs. Boxing

Listen to the Feb 1, 2010 Podcast

This week on We're Just Sayin...

• Iz is proud of the George Mason men's basketball team
• Tessel is tired of all the Tyler Perry produced shows on TBS
• Gonz thinks American Idol has run its course.

In preparation for the first annual Tessel Royal Rumble party, we recorded live with our new microphones.  We decided it had become time to finally step up to the next level.  Everything was going fine (even though we had to switch our recording method from Audacity to Apple's Garage Band) until I went back and listened to the recording.  At about the 26 minute mark all hell breaks loose.  We got echoes and garbled sound, basically making it useless.  So when you listen you'll notice an abrupt ending for this week.  Have no fear though, we have purchased microphone windscreens and should be good to go for our Super Bowl preview podcast.

The Real World DC

Listen to the Jan 25, 2010 Podcast

This week on We're Just Sayin...

• Iz says goodbye to Conan O'Brien 
• Tessel proposes a reboot of TMNT movies
• Gonz wonders where all the stars from American Pie went
• Beth is baffled people are paying to see the cast of Jersey Shore

After a lengthy contract discussion, we were able to bring in our first local celebrity: Elizabethany

She gave us the necessary estrogen boost we needed as we discussed the Real World DC.  The Iz was suffering from a long night of drinking (milk) and wasn't necessarily on his "a" game.  Nevertheless, the proclaimed Real World DC madame was able to provide us with some juicy gossip and behind the scenes controversy.

Haiti, Leno vs. Conan and Golden Globes preview

Listen to the Jan 18, 2010 Podcast

This week on We're Just Sayin...

• Iz comes to the realization that the Wizards season is over
• Tessel is concerned about parents infiltrating social media
• Gonz loves the new Big Mac snack wrap

Live from the studio of Shawn R. we discuss the tragedy in Haiti and it's impact in today's culture.  Are we becoming desensitized?  But the issue most effecting our mood this week was the ousting of Mr. Conan O'Brien from The Tonight Show.  Shame on NBC.  Also, really the New York Jets made it to the AFC Championship game, really?

Leno vs. Conan, the NFL Playoffs and the Male's Point of View in Wedding Planning

Listen to the Jan 12, 2010 Podcast

This week on We're Just Sayin...

• Iz is tired of vanity plates 
• Tessel has grown tired of the local Safeway
• Gonz hates the new Black Eyed Peas song

It's a sentimental week as we approach the 20th anniversary of The Simpsons, approach the inevitable end of Conan O'Brien's run as host of The Tonight Show and Tessel inches closer to life as a married man.  We felt it was important to get the male's perspective as far as wedding planning goes and luckily Tessel was nice enough to let us peek inside.

New Year's, Gilbert's Gun and the Fan Experience

Listen to the Jan 4, 2010 Podcast

This week on We're Just Sayin...

• Iz is a huge fan of Orbit gum
• Tessel is celebrating the return of Bret Hart to the WWE
• Gonz is enjoying Hurricane in the can

Happy New Year from the gang at We're Just Sayin!  We regroup and discuss how we spent our new year's, our favorite drinks and whether or not people actually keep new year's resolutions.  Gonz was a bit jealous he wasn't able to hang out with Jon Stewart and play Twister (you have to listen).  From there we get into what happened with Gilbert and his guns and is the game day, specifically football, experience dead?
