Jay Scott ConfidentialEpisode 72: A Hill To Die OnSeason 3 of the People's Podcast sticks with hoops for the second straight week. This week, it's the curious case of Grant Hill. He was elected to the Basketball of Hall of Fame and deservedly so.

Then, It's more JSC Words of Wisdom as Jay helps you find inspiration...in batting stances?

Jay Scott ConfidentialEpisode 71: Ball Don't LieSeason 3 of the People's Podcast comes in hot as both the Michigan State Spartans and Detroit Pistons have completely soiled themselves -- but in different ways. First, Jay tees off on his Alma Mater, who found a way to lose to an offensively inept Syracuse team -- in DETROIT no less -- and make another unexpectedly early exit from the NCAA Tournament.
Then, Jay goes at the painfully mediocre Pistons. After a nice start to the season, they have fallen off a cliff then traded away a future for a "superstar." The NBA's C- squad needs a makeover.
