  • Team USA wins Olympic gold over Knicks

    Team USA wins Olympic gold over Knicks
    Feb 26 2026
    On Episode 103 of Moving the Goal Posts, Nick DiMartino and Johnny Montalbano dive headfirst into a whirlwind week for American sports, headlined by a legendary "double gold" performance on the ice in Milan. The guys break down the pure magic of Team USA Men’s and Women’s Hockey both capturing Gold Medals, reflecting on the historical weight of the Men's first victory over Canada since the Miracle on Ice and the sheer dominance shown by the Women’s squad throughout the tournament. Shifting gears to the diamond, Nick and Johnny tackle the online discourse comparing the Olympics to the World Baseball Classic, laying out exactly why these two stages represent entirely different animals in terms of stakes, tradition, and global atmosphere. Of course, it wouldn't be a New York sports show without some hard truths, and the duo pulls no punches while discussing the Knicks' baffling inability to handle the Detroit Pistons, questioning how a supposed contender can repeatedly falter against the bottom of the Eastern Conference. From locker room vibes to the biggest headlines across the league, the guys cover all this and more in a high-energy session that balances hometown frustration with national pride.

    Stephen A Smith for president is tanking the NBA
    Feb 19 2026
    On this high-stakes Episode 102 of Moving The Goal Posts, Nick DiMartino and Callan McClurg tackle a massive slate of sports and culture stories, starting with NBA Commissioner Adam Silver’s intensifying crusade against tanking and whether his proposed solutions can actually fix the league's competitive balance. The conversation takes a wild turn into the political arena as the guys weigh in on the viral buzz surrounding Stephen A. Smith potentially running for president, debating if his "First Take" style would actually play on a national debate stage. Things get more serious as they break down the intense backlash LeBron James is facing over his recent comments on Israel, examining the fine line superstars walk when weighing in on global conflicts. Turning back to the court, Nick and Callen offer a brutal autopsy of NBA All-Star Weekend and brainstorm ways to inject life back into the mid-season break. On the gridiron front, they dissect Mike Elko’s blunt blueprint for saving a fractured College Football landscape from the chaos of NIL and the transfer portal, before wrapping up with a lightning round of "Goal Post" takes on the week’s biggest headlines.
