Mary Lou and Phyllis dive into three timely topics for this Podcast. Leading off with a discussion about college hoops, then exploring NBA player health and ending with how we, the fans, can the energize and influence a game.

Let’s talk about College Hoops -The OGs look at early-season Women’s and Men’s NCAA basketball, breaking down rankings, standings, and those way-too-early projections. Will they hold up come tournament time in April? Insights and a few predictions will be shared on how the madness might unfold.

What’s with all the player injuries? Injuries in the NBA are part of the game’s toughest reality and can reshape a season. Every setback tells a story about recovery, resilience, and the grind that defines professional basketball. Nutrition plays a key role in helping players rebuild, stay strong and extend their careers in a league where every game and every body matters.

Fans are the heart and soul of the game - The fans are the heartbeat of basketball. They bring energy, emotion, and loyalty to every game. From the crowd roar in packed arenas to the chatter online, they shape the culture, lift teams through slumps, and make the sport more than just competition- they make it a community. And, I smell some fresh baked cookies ready to be shared.
