No, I'm not referring to the former Jazz guard. It is with some sadness and a great bit of relief that we say goodbye to the Utah Sports Cast in its current form. It's been fun for about a year and a half to get together at some ridiculous hour once a week to bring you a rant or two about sports in our great state. But the luster has worn off a bit, and even though BYU looks to be winning the conference again in basketball and the Jazz are apparently playoff-bound, our weekly ramblings will

Episode 56 – Sweet Music From the Jazz

Utah Sports Cast ·

2008/01/29

Listen Here! We are still several weeks away from college basketball taking center stage, and it’s about that same amount of time until the next major Utah sports team begins their season (Real Salt Lake). So this time of the year the Utah SportsCast is almost all about the Utah Jazz, and we have a lot to say about the team and their recently reacquired position atop the Northwest Division. Then we spend some time with Utah’s D1 college teams, and do some advanced scouting on their chances of

Episode 55 – Utah vs. BYU Redux

Utah Sports Cast ·

2008/01/23

Listen Here! We tried to divide our time between the Utah Jazz and College Basketball in this week’s podcast, but we ended up talking about all sorts of things, including European soccer, small college mascots, and Zach’s cell phone number. It was a bit more unusual than usual, if that makes any sense. As a bonus, if you have ever wanted to be a part of the Utah SportsCast, you will want to listen to this episode - please download us or go to iTunes and subscribe! Our Top 3 in Utah for

Episode 54 – Have the Utah Jazz solved their problems?

Utah Sports Cast ·

2008/01/17

Listen Here! This week in the podcast we address the recent four game home winning streak by the Utah Jazz, and debate whether that is sufficient to consider the crisis averted (hint: it’s not – not yet, at least). We also induct The Guy Who Looks like Demi Moore’s Husband into the Top 3 for the first time, and go through the local college hoops scene. All this among much, much more, as always. Our Top 3 in Utah for this week: 3. Kyle Korver 2. Ashley Postell 1. Deron Williams

Episode 53 – Utah and BYU win Bowls, End Seasons

Utah Sports Cast ·

2008/01/08

Listen Here! It’s been a little while since our last show, and while I enjoyed the break, it didn’t do anything for my podcasting skills. I would like to apologize in advance. If you are somehow able to only listen to Zach, you will be fine. We spend most of our time this week talking about the Utah and BYU bowl games, even though they took place a few weeks ago. Both teams won, which was the outcome we both predicted and hoped for, and they were fitting conclusions to good seasons.

Episode 52 – Bowling Week and Bad Jazz

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/12/18

Listen Here! Christmas Season Status as been officially changed from “Right Around the Corner” to “Practically Here” at the Utah SportsCast, so we figured it was about time to do a little shopping for some of our favorite local sports figures. We made a list of everyone we talked about this year, and what we thought they would either like or need. Some of the gifts were pretty easy to find (a box of tissues for Larry H. Miller, for example, or an English-Portuguese dictionary for Freddy Adu),

Episode 51 – A Bad Luck Sports Week

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/12/11

Listen Here! As promised (or threatened, depending on how you look at it), an open letter to the Brigham Young University football team: Dear Cougar players, coaches, and administrators, First and foremost: congratulations Champs! That’s two in a row, after not having won one for a few years. Not too shabby, if you ask me. Fans in other conferences would have liked to see their team chase bigger dreams after a good season, but you guys have your priorities in order. Besides, that

Episode 50 – Time to Go Bowling

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/12/05

Listen Here! Hello Utah SportsFans and thank you for listening and reading. I would like to apologize for what will be a very brief blog entry this week. Not that anyone besides me reads them (well, Zach does), but I still wish I had time enough to offer something better. Next week we will return to regular posting with an open letter to the Brigham Young University football team. Until then, please enjoy our podcast efforts. As always, there is plenty to (hopefully), including a big

Episode 49 – The Morning (or Mourning) After

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/11/27

Listen Here! An open letter to the University of Utah football team: Dear Utah players, coaches, and administrators, First of all, and on behalf of Utah fans everywhere, I would like to thank you for a good season, and for a series of entertaining football games. We are uncomplicated when it comes to our expectations, and you have certainly exceeded mine. Congratulations on tying for third in the Mountain West Conference. The fans of other teams in other conferences would find it

Episode 48 – The Rivalry Show

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/11/19

Listen Here! The much-anticipated Rivalry Week is finally here. Utah’s next scheduled game is in Provo, Utah against BYU, and vice-versa. Within a week the hype will be silenced, the preparation will be over, the plays will be run, the dust will have settled, and one team will stand triumphant over the other. I could not be more excited. Both Utah and BYU stretched their winning streaks to seven games last week, with significant wins over conference teams. Utah played at home, fending

Episode 47 – A Week of Winning

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/11/14

Listen Here! On the surface, this was a pretty good week for the Utah SportsCast. The Jazz swept all four of the games they played since our last show, BYU won a critical conference game in Provo, and Utah completely outmanned their hapless opponent. That is a 6-0 combined record for the “big three” of this point in the sports season, and a fan could hardly ask for more than four game, five game, and six game win streaks, respectively. However, results do not always tell the complete

Episode 46 – BYU Wins, Utah Rests, and the Jazz Split

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/11/05

Listen Here! It was good to have Brigham Young University back on the field after their rescheduling bye. It was only the second home game for the Cougars since September 22nd, and they hosted the bottom-dwelling Colorado State Rams. As predicted, suspected or hoped-for, BYU won by a large margin: 35-16. The Cougars are now undefeated in their past 12 conference games. Max Hall saw a return to earlier excellence, which, according to Zach, was the second most important thing BYU had to

Episode 45 – Continuing the Winning Ways

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/11/01

Listen Here! I am a big fan of sports, which should be evident by the fact that I voluntarily wake up at 4:45 AM once a week to participate in this podcast. I have a reasonably broad range of sports I enjoy following, as well as some specific teams or players within that range. The same is true of Zach, I know, and I suspect could be said of most other sports fans in the world. We enjoy sports, we follow them, and for the most part we have more than one team/sport we follow. These are

Episode 44 – Winning Streaks on the Wasatch Front

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/10/24

Listen Here! I should start this blog entry with a disclaimer: I didn’t watch either the Utah or the BYU games this past week. It wasn’t a lack of interest, but I had other, previous engagements during both games. I did catch a bit of each on the radio, and read the post-game articles, but that was it. I only mention this in the interest of full disclosure. Well, that, and it gives me an excuse when all of my thoughts and opinions are more foolish than usual. Anyway, I had written Utah

Episode 43 – A big win for Utah, yet another loss for...

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/10/09

Listen Here! To begin, I would like to present a quote from this very blog as posted last week. It was the latest version of my developing opinion about the University of Utah football team: If they lose big this Friday at Louisville (as, unfortunately, I am expecting) then the “mediocre” definition will probably stick. If Utah manages to keep the score close and look good (or, in another shock, win), then we may have to back to the drawing board. So, I was shocked (as predicted) when

Episode 42 – Uninspiring wins from BYU and Utah

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/10/01

Listen Here! Zach and I were able to get together last Saturday and watch both Utah vs. Utah State and New Mexico vs. BYU. It was not the first time we had watched games together, of course, but it’s pretty rare that we have a chance to do it. It was good to see Utah get a cruise-control victory in the driving snow. It was also nice to find out that BYU could stumble a bit against a motivated opponent, and still pull out a win. After the game we celebrated by playing a few rounds of FIFA

Episode 41 –The winner lost, and the losers won

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/09/24

Listen Here! There is almost always something interesting going on around the Utah Sports Cast, with the possible exception of that slow, dull time in mid-summer when we half-heartedly cover baseball while waiting for a blockbuster Utah Jazz signing. The rest of the year is split between football and basketball seasons, so we don’t generally have a problem finding things to talk about. At this time of the year (early fall) the primary teams/sports we follow are Real Salt Lake, The

Episode 40 – A mixed week of results

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/09/19

Listen Here! This past weekend, the temperature for Utah sports was hot, cold, and lukewarm, all at the same time. The University of Utah football team was very hot, and looked virtually perfect as they trounced 11th ranked UCLA 44-6. Real Salt Lake managed a lukewarm 0-0 draw against Toronto, but considering they were down a man for most of the game and playing in Canada, the effort was hot. BYU’s offensive statistics were hot (they got in the end zone seven times), but the rest of the team

Blog Only – A losing week for Utah sports

Utah Sports Cast ·

2007/09/13

It was a rough stretch of days for fans and followers of Utah’s major sports teams. Real Salt Lake lost on the road against the Houston Dynamo as a follow-up to their first winning streak (2 games) this season. Utah lost in two ways, not only dropping the home opener against Air Force, but losing their best offensive player – Brent Casteel – for the season to a knee injury. Utah State lost to Wyoming, which shouldn’t surprise anyone who has followed the team for more than a month. The Salt Lake
