The More Sports Please podcast returns with a lighter, shorter episode as co-host Jacob is joined by his regular partner, with Offenbacker absent due to attending opening day games in Cincinnati. The hosts dive into the latest sports headlines, starting with NFL draft speculation around Ty Simpson and the Steelers' potential move to draft him behind Aaron Rodgers. They debate the merits of drafting a quarterback to sit for a year, drawing parallels to Mahomes and Love, while questioning Simpson’s limited college experience and the depth of the 2026 quarterback class. The conversation shifts to March Madness, with the hosts analyzing the Final Four matchups—UConn vs. Illinois and Arizona vs. Michigan—with predictions favoring a UConn-Michigan final. They also touch on opening day baseball, focusing on the Phillies’ performance, the Pirates’ struggles, and the excitement around local games and promotions like hot dog deals and Batmug Day. A deep cut into the Women’s National Football Conference (WNFC) highlights the Kansas City Glory’s dominant 41-2 win and the standout play of running back Maria Faltali, with the hosts encouraging listeners to check out the free, high-school-vibe league on Victory Plus. The episode closes with NASCAR highlights from Martinsville, a rant about Denny Hamlin’s aggressive driving, and a hopeful update on the Flyers’ playoff chances, now at 18% after a strong 7-2-1 stretch. The hosts acknowledge a lull in major sports action outside of the draft and March Madness, teasing future mock drafts as a potential standalone episode.
