The conversation shifts to the LeBron James sweepstakes, with Joe joking that "The Decision" has turned into "The Indecision" as he and Dave Hyde debate whether Miami or Cleveland is the better fit and what the Heat's backup plan could be if they miss out. The hour also features Dolphins discussion centered around Miami's brutal schedule, the league's top quarterbacks, Tyreek Hill's legacy and whether the blockbuster trade was worth it, before wrapping up with Hurricanes talk as the guys discuss Clemson embracing the transfer portal, Miami's favorable ACC schedule, and whether the Canes should continue relying on transfer quarterbacks or develop one from within.

Hour 2 features World Cup discussion as Joe Rose and Dave Hyde break down the Final Four, make their championship picks, and reminisce about the NFL's old consolation game for third place. The guys also react to an exciting Home Run Derby, revisit the reported Bam Adebayo-Tyler Herro conflict, and mix in some lighthearted conversation about Jamie trying Key lime pie and his dating life. The hour continues with a debate over the NFL's best quarterbacks, agreeing Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes sit atop the rankings before discussing Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow, Matthew Stafford, and why passing on Lamar remains one of the Dolphins' biggest mistakes.
