On this week’s episode:

We haven’t podcasted in a literal month, mostly because the sports world has come to a complete halt in the days since. We could talk about the coronavirus and its impact on our communities and lives, but we do realize that you come to FTRS and sports in general for entertainment and to get away from the stresses of real life. In that vein, here’s what’s on deck this week in Part Two of our Quarantine Hour (ok, it was really closer to an hour and half — sue us):

• Which is better: watching simulated sports on Twitch/Youtube versus watching re-runs?
• Should we do an FTRS watch-along? What would we watch from the back-catalog?

Unheralded sports moments & performances worth a rewatch:

• 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics: men’s 4x100m freestyle relay
• 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics: women’s hockey gold medal game - USA vs CAN
• 2017 World Baseball Classic: USA vs Dominican Republic
• 2016 Rio Summer Olympics: Katie Ledecky’s 800m freestyle race
• 2008 Chicago Wolves (AHL) & the Calder Cup (and why it mattered in Chicago hockey politics)
• 2019 NHL playoffs: Sharks vs Knights, Game 7
• 2016 College World Series: Coastal Carolina
• 2019 Women’s World Cup: USA’s whole tournament
• 2002 DCI Worlds Championship: Cavaliers’ performance of Frameworks (honorable “sport” mention because it was in Camp Randall)
