The NFL season is officially in the books, and Super Bowl 60 is in the rearview mirror. This week on Two Dummies That Just Watch, Will Hernandez and Erik Pimentel recap the big game from Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, where the Seattle Seahawks handled the New England Patriots and secured their second Super Bowl title in franchise history. It wasn’t a classic, but it still gave us plenty to chat about—what worked, what didn’t, and what it means heading into next season.
From there, the Dummies hit the NBA trade deadline, where the New York Knicks made a sneaky-good move by landing Jose Alvarado, the Brooklyn native finally suiting up for the team he grew up rooting for. Plus: what’s going on with the Brooklyn Nets, and the messy situation surrounding the decision to move on from Cam Thomas.
At halftime, Will and Erik switch gears into real-life talk: why suburban public transportation options can be so brutal.
On the back half, it’s hoops and nostalgia with St. John’s basketball and the college teams they’ve stuck with through the years. Then it’s Mets Spring Training time—complete with the Dummies’ all-time Mets lineup. And because it’s a Will-and-Erik episode, you already know it ends in wrestling: a pro wrestling Mt. Rushmore for the most memorable jobbers/enhancement talent.
