"I proved to myself I’m able to dominate the league" said Pro Bowler Shedeur Sanders. While Shedeur may be out of his mind, the bigger deal here is that the Pro Bowl used to mean something. Now it’s a flag football spectacle where players opt out, effort is optional, and even quarterbacks with seven touchdowns and ten interceptions can make the roster. Ricky reacts to Shedeur Sanders’ comments and rips the current version of the NFL Pro Bowl for the joke that it has become. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft has not been elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. In a significant development reported today, Kraft failed to receive the necessary votes for the Class of 2026, marking a major "snub" that coincides with former head coach Bill Belichick also missing out this year. Despite his 14 years of eligibility and reaching the finalist stage for the first time, Kraft fell short of the 40-vote threshold.

Bill Belichick not being voted in as a first ballot Hall of Famer is one of the most shocking and embarrassing decisions in sports history. The greatest football coach who ever lived — six Super Bowl rings, decades of dominance, and a legacy that defined modern football — somehow didn’t receive enough votes. There is no football argument for this outcome. So what happened? The voters who didn't vote Bill in should be ashamed of themselves and deserve to have their HOF voting rights STRIPPED AWAY Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Shedeur Sanders was named a Pro Bowl alternate — and it raises serious questions about what the Pro Bowl even means anymore. He didn’t play half the season, struggled when he was on the field, and now finds himself on a list once considered an honor.With so many quarterbacks dropping out due to injuries or declining the invitation, the NFL’s decision to turn to Sanders only further highlights how far the Pro Bowl has fallen. What used to be a meaningful recognition has become a watered-down exhibition — and this selection might be the clearest example yet.At some point, fans are allowed to ask: what’s the standard now?

Indiana wasn’t supposed to be here — but Curt Cignetti just delivered the most improbable championship run college sports has ever seen. From a program with no history to a perfect season and a national title, this is the ultimate underdog/feel-good sports story. Indiana’s 16–0 championship season wasn’t built on hype, five-stars, or tradition. It was built on toughness, belief, and a roster of misfits that bought in when no one else believed. In this episode of The Ricky Cobb Show, we break down how Curt Cignetti turned one of college football’s bottom-tier programs into national champions — and why this run may never be repeated, and why it IS the greatest story in the history of college sports Learn more about your ad choices.

Ricky Cobb breaks down why the outrage over the Dodgers’ spending is completely misplaced — and why Major League Baseball actually needs a super team right now. Instead of blaming Los Angeles for playing by the rules, maybe the real problem is MLB’s broken economic model, soft salary penalties, and a league that’s been coasting without urgency. Super teams drive ratings, attention, and relevance — something baseball desperately needs in 2026 and beyond. And money doesn't mean you win in October. If a work stoppage is coming, it won’t be because the Dodgers tried to win. It’ll be because MLB refused to fix the system. Don’t hate the Dodgers. Hate the denial. Learn more about your ad choices.
