Episode 2250: Bye Bye Brady, Patrick Mahomes & The C Word, Mack In Attack

It’s a tale of three quarter-backs with Brian Murphy, doyen of the Bay Area, and uncrowned king of the San Francisco airwaves today. Is Patrick Mahomes a choker? Is Jimmy G finished as a San Francisco 49er, and most importantly of all – why did Tom Brady decide to hang up his cleats this week?

I played for the name on the front of my jersey and the name on the back of my jersey. I played for my friends, my family & our community – every single one of you – that have given me what I have today.

I love you all. Thank you ALL for making this incredible journey possible pic.twitter.com/3jmNWid9ZB

Ken wonders aloud why we’re not seeing the “Washington Elites” play in the NFL next year, we get the low-down on Ireland’s debutant Mack Hansen, getting his chance because of Riverboat Andy’s gamble, and it sounds like it’s gearing up to be a busy weekend on your TV.
