Alley Oop 131: Victor Wembanyama DOMINATES While NBA Gambling Scandal Explodes

NFL Week 8 is about to kick off. We list the top five NFL games to watch, including a revenge game (let's be real) for Aaron Rodgers against the Packers. Then Dave answers a huge hypothetical question: What if Seattle never left the AFC? Then Brandon Perna answers a philosophical question: Who in their right mind would ever want to become an NFL official? Then Ahman Green answers a monetary question: Would Brett Favre or Aaron Rodgers ever pick up a tab? Safe to say, Dave Dameshek and the gang have the necessary answers to the most important questions to the most important sport in the world on Football America!
