0:09.0	brought to you by Sprinkler Fitters Union Local 281. On this episode, we're joined by Bleacher reports,
0:14.5	Kalyn Kaler to get a deep dive into what the bears might need to do at running back in the wake of David Montgomery's injury,
0:22.2	an even deeper dive into the Bears kicking issues that Kalen's been all over covering over the last

1:46.1	Milwaukee Bucks are boycotting their playoff game against the Orlando Magic to follow that.
1:52.9	The Oklahoma City Thunder and the Houston Rockets also boycotting their playoff game. It's such a
