  • The Bibby Draft (June 24, 1998)
    22 Jan 2026

    "Stu-brain" strikes again at the 1998 NBA Entry Draft. The Grizzlies get Mike Bibby, but miss on possibly-franchise-altering players Vince Carter and Paul Pierce.

    Stu's narcissism (or crippling insecurity?) once again prevent him from trading Big Country for Steve Nash. No, that is not a typo.

    But at least we know it's the last time the Grizzlies will ever draft a point guard with the 2nd overall pick in the NBA Draft. Right? Right, guys?

    1 Dec 2025

    We are back!

    B.C.'s Minister of Energy and Climate Solutions Adrian Dix joins the podcast to flex his basketball muscles. He's still mad Stu didn't draft Lamar Odom in '99.

    Jeremy and Justin hand out the hardware for another tough season in Grizzland.

    The awards include The Dave Pratt Award for Worst Take, The Big Country Award for MVP and The Stu Jackson Award for Biggest Disappoinment.
