1 - Episode 178 - Toradol; Jeff and Stan Van Gundy; Kevin Kelly

Air Date: January 24, 2012

Many football players use Toradol, a potent drug that allows them to play through their pain, and that has doctors worried. Jeff and Stan Van Gundy are sons of a basketball coach who both made it to the NBA. Jeff is now a broadcaster who sometimes covers his brother Stan's games. Kevin Kelly is an Arkansas high school football coach whose statistical analysis of the game has led him to believe that teams should almost never punt and should always attempt onside kicks. Andrea Kremer catches up with Oakland Raiders center Barret Robbins, who was AWOL for Super Bowl XXXVII and has struggled to stay sober and out of prison ever since.
