The Big Lead's Stephen Douglas and Kyle Koster recap episode three of Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty, a dizzying and disorienting effort that raises some real questions about the sustainability of the show. A new No. 1 emerges as Dr. Jerry Buss takes a backseat to some new characters, each chockfull of eccentricity and broadness. Are we 100 percent sure Adrien Brody doesn't think he's playing Phil Jackson? A shark-hunting trip to Las Vegas largely stays in Las Vegas, plus earnest appreciation of the incredible hair featured on screen. 

Two episodes in, Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty has met high expectations with a star-studded cast and that familiar Adam McKay feel. The Big Lead's Kyle Koster and Stephen Douglas dive into the latest episode and endeavor to power-rank the characters. With such a crowded field, it will take a special performance to crack the Top 7. And with John C. Reilly throwing 103 mph, good luck usurping the top spot. Plenty of season left, though. 

The 2021 NFL season ended with the Los Angeles Rams taking home the Lombardi Trophy, defeating the Cincinnati Bengals in Super Bowl LVI. It was a great year of football, and an even better one in the football broadcasting world. The quality of broadcasting has never been higher around the NFL and every network boasts a marquee pairing with a deep bench of talented secondary teams. 

Before we look forward to the big changes on the horizon in the sports media realm (Al Michaels to Amazon?), let's look back upon the 2021 season and rank the seven best broadcasting booths from the NFL season.
