Have you ever wondered what it is like to have ADHD? Well, listening to this episode might be the closest you ever get [complimentary [I hope]].

This episode has everything: facial hair, half baked Olympics recap, political banter, a definitive ranking of months of the year, a 35 year old man who doesn't exercise running a 40 yard dash, a 35 year old man trying to make the case that taking care of his children should actually count as exercise, regrettable Halloween costumes, and cults.

It's the greatest podcast episode ever produced while including the quote "I eviscerated my groin."

Derek also gives a quick preview for an exciting project coming soon!

Screenwriter and author Irene Turner joins Derek to talk about her life as a Los Angeles sports fan. She touches on the emotional journey of growing up a Rams fan only for them to be ripped away to St. Louis and then triumphantly returned. Ever wonder what it is like to watch your favorite team win the Super Bowl in their home stadium? Well, Irene can tell you.

Toward the end of the episode, Derek pitches Irene some casting ideas for prominent NFL figures inspired by the upcoming film Madden starring Nic Cage and Christian Bale. Will Irene approve of Derek's choices for Sean McVay, Jared Goff, Brock Purdy, and Sam Darnold? Will she even approve of the latter three being included?

With the Super Bowl just days away, Derek and Devesh dive into the two teams squaring off: The Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots. Of course, they first have to get through a lot of [entertaining] nonsense including a debate about a former QB that you would never be able to guess.

At the end of the episode Derek reveals the Super Bowl prediction by every guest the show has ever had including Denny Carter, Sam Fortier, Dynasty Daddy, and yes even audience favorite Colleen Thomas.

Who will Derek and Devesh pick to win Super Bowl LX?

Thank you to Alec Pulianas, Sam Fortier, Peter Cocoros, Jeremy Tiperio, Justin Bauerle, Mike Held, Josh Katzker, and of course Colleen Thomas for getting me your Super Bowl predictions and letting me mention them on the episode.

It has been 7 full years since the New England Patriots were in the Super Bowl. Can you imagine? There are full grown 7 year olds running around your town shouting "6, 7!" that have never experienced a Super Bowl with the New England Patriots.

Many of us thought they had been vanquished. But much like Palpatine in Star Wars Episode IX, The Rise of Skywalker, somehow the Patriots have returned in Super Bowl Episode LX, The Rise of... something.

Masshole in Residence John Fozberry joins Derek to talk about the plight of having to watch his favorite team make the Super Bowl in one out of his three years on earth.

Derek bears the resentment and bitterness of the entire nation while masterfully keeping his composure. Critics are saying it's the best performance of 2026; yes, even better than "Melania."

In a jampacked episode of Derek Likes Sports, Derek and Devesh discuss Devesh's trip to Sundance Film Festival and what he was doing instead of watching the AFC and NFC Championship games.

They then talk about Derek's chronic migraines and a new headache for Bill Belichick: missing the Hall of Fame on the first ballot.

It is one of the most wide-ranging, nonsense filled podcast spectaculars perfect for Super Bowl Media Week.

Bills Derangement Syndrome is often followed immediately by a spell of Bills Depression Syndrome. Every January, millions of Bills fans are struck down with a seasonal affliction. There may be a cure out there, but to date, it has never been found. The Buffalo Bills organization has tried nothing, and sadly, they are all out of ideas.

One Bills fan, Devesh, joins Derek to discuss how he is handling this most recent bout of post-BDS BDS. Spoiler: not well!

This season seems to be hitting fans extra hard and appears to be resistant to previous inoculations. The difference? The firing of Sean McDermott: a man who once seemed like a promising antidote for this plague.

Devesh worries this time BDS may be fatal for his fandom, but that too is simply a symptom of the wretched illness.

Nevertheless, we press on in search of a cure.
