The guys were back in the lab on Easter Sunday to bring you episode 5! A huge thanks to those of you who have been supporting us from day 1 and giving us feedback. If you're new to our pod- welcome! You can find us @ballhawks_pod @ssfisher87 @phillipschris12 We would love to hear from you and chat! Chris starts the episode by finally revealing the story of his wife's pseudo listen to the pod. Steve reveals how his wife surprised him during Easter dinner to confirm she, in fact, listened to Episode 4's birthday shoutout to her. Football talks kickoff with the NFL's expanded regular season (10:05). Is it a good thing? Bad? The guys try to shine some light on some potential silver linings and what that means for players. Talks then moved to the recent news of Tyler Lockett's big extension (33:05). Chris is obviously excited about it, while Steve's fantasy football draft blunder of Lockett gets him to play a little devil's advocate. Is it a good contract? Are there concerns? The guys went through their first round mock draft, picks 1-16 (61:21). Find out why Chris was so upset with Steve's "rules" for this first part of their mock drafts. A couple shockers in there with one member revealing that he had Kyle Pitts falling to number 15!!! "With all due respect" was brought in many times to deal with that fiasco. Another installment of the Third Down segment (81:17) this week brings matchups of stadium food! Grab yourself a hot dog, fries and maybe even some crickets? because you won't want to miss the foodie Third Down! Shoutout crown this week goes to Taki and Christian who have been loyal listeners of the podcast and have spent a lot of time giving us a lot of feedback on how we can grow this thing! Props to you guys and we welcome feedback of all kinds from everyone! Send us your thoughts @ballhawks_pod

The guys were back in studio to drop the 4th episode featuring a very special guest and our very first guest on the show- Ted Wong of the PP1 Podcast. He has also made an appearance on The LarschCast show on Sportsnet 650. You can follow him on Twitter @Tee3ree and follow his hockey podcast @ThePP1Podcast Ted is a good friend of ours and a huge Cleveland Browns fan. He joined us to chat everything NFL and give us the latest on the Browns state of affairs.

The show kicked off with a conversation about Steve's recent Twitter spat with Jacksonville Jaguar minority owner, Tony Khan. Lots of good laughs to kick off the episode.

The fellas kick start football talks with recent Free Agency news (11:26) of the Ravens landing Sammy Watkins, Seahawks re-signing Carlos Dunlap, followed by Ted giving us all the Browns FA moves up to this point.

Talks shift to the NFL Draft and the trades (30:35) that shocked the football landscape between the San Francisco 49ers and Miami Dolphins. Then shortly after the Dolphins trading again with the Philadelphia Eagles. The guys then put Ted in the hot seat to give viewers an idea of what the Browns draft needs are and what they could be targeting in the first two rounds (49:01).

The second installment of The Third Down Segment (61:25) where Chris hit Steve and Ted with some football movie characters. The audience is in for a not so close battle filled with Steve unveiling a shocking secret about his football movie IQ. Hint: it doesn't end well for a particular host. We're all still laughing from some of these matchups.

The weekly Shoutout Crown is awarded (88:35) to a group of folks taking the podcasting leap. Chris, Adam, Liz and Jessica from The Third Line Podcast have been supporting our podcast since we started and we are pumped for this group to get their launch. Follow them on Twitter @3rdlinepod for some awesome hockey insight.
