Missing the Point
Missing the Point is a sports podcast for fans who want real conversations, not recycled headlines.
We cover the NFL, NBA, MLB, WWE, and the biggest stories across the sports world. Boston teams lead the conversation, but we go wherever the story takes us. Patriots, Celtics, Red Sox, Bruins, league-wide drama, trades, drafts, injuries, coaching moves, media narratives. If fans are talking about it, we are too.
This show is built on honest debate. No scripted opinions. No manufactured outrage. No talking points handed down from a network. You get real reactions, real arguments, and real breakdowns of what actually matters in sports.
Every episode brings:
• Patriots talk from draft season to kickoff to playoffs
• Celtics breakdowns during the regular season and postseason
• Red Sox coverage from spring training through October
• Bruins talk when it matters most
• Full NFL coverage, including power rankings, free agency, and draft analysis
• NBA playoff races, trades, stars, and team futures
• Wrestling coverage for major events and storylines
• Sports media talk and bad takes that deserve to be called out
We don’t just say what happened. We explain why it happened and what it means next. We challenge narratives. We question front offices. We break down coaching decisions. We look at what teams are building toward, not just what they did yesterday.
You’ll hear debates that don’t end in fake agreement. If we disagree, we stay on it. If a take is bad, we call it bad. If a team earns respect, we give it.
Missing the Point is for fans who love the details. Fans who care about roster construction, coaching philosophy, player development, and how one move can change everything.
We talk like fans, but we think like analysts.
If you follow Boston sports, you’ll feel at home. If you follow any sport at all, you’ll find something every episode.
New episodes drop every week.
Missing the Point
Boston Red Sox Stun Yankees, Patriots Crush Panthers, Tatum Eyes Return
Boston sports are heating up again and Missing the Point is here with the most in-depth, unfiltered breakdown anywhere. Hosts Mike Marcangelo and Rayshawn Buchanan cover every angle of the week’s biggest stories across MLB, NFL, and the NBA.
⚾ Boston Red Sox Playoff Surge
The Red Sox are back in October baseball after years of mediocrity, thanks to a dramatic 4-3 walk-off win over Detroit. Mike and Rayshawn preview the AL Wild Card showdown with the New York Yankees, analyzing key matchups, bullpen strategy, and the impact of the controversial Rafael Devers trade. With Aroldis Chapman revitalized as a late-inning stopper, this could be Boston’s most dangerous team in years.
🏈 Patriots 42-13 Domination of the Panthers
Drake Maye’s 14-of-17 passing, two touchdowns, and zero turnovers highlight a breakout game for New England’s offense. Marcus Jones electrifies Gillette with a punt return TD, and Stephon Diggs continues to be a difference-maker. Mike and Rayshawn compare Maye’s efficiency to Josh Allen’s early career numbers and debate whether the Patriots have a legitimate top-10 quarterback already. They also call out the running game’s inconsistency and outline what’s needed to sustain success.
🏀 Celtics and Tatum’s Comeback Timeline
Jayson Tatum is rehabbing six days a week and eyeing a March 4 return. Mike and Rayshawn discuss how Tatum’s comeback could shape Boston’s playoff seeding and why Al Horford’s leadership remains a stabilizing force. They also break down the Anfernee Simons signing, the loss of key players, and what it all means for the Eastern Conference.
