Steve was there. Jonathan has the stats. Mark has the East Coast take. Together they cover basketball, baseball, football, and hockey across three completely different eras of fandom. Real memories, real arguments, real numbers — from Muhammad Ali to Barry Bonds to Wayne Gretzky to the Raiders' 40 years of heartbreak. No hot takes. No corporate sponsors. Just three generations telling it straight. New episodes every Saturday. Now on YouTube.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-06T18:20:18.491195+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/generations-talking-bout-my-sports-6576448"},"episode":{"title":"S4 E27 - Collapse or Comeback?

The Greatest Blown Leads in Sports History" England had Argentina on the ropes. The Spurs were up 29 at halftime. The Bills led 28-3. Greg Norman had a six-stroke Masters lead. So what happened? In Season 4, Episode 27, Jonathan, Steve, and Mark debate one of sports' greatest questions: when a team blows a massive lead, is it a collapse, a comeback — or both? The Cases: ⚽ England-Argentina, World Cup — Steve was at a bar watching Messi dismantle England's prevent defense for 30 straight minutes.

Jonathan pulls the data: teams down 20 going into the fourth quarter in NBA playoff history are 3 and 747. The Knicks being one of those three makes it personal. 🏀 Trail Blazers-Lakers, 2000 Game 7 — Up 71-58 in the fourth quarter, 13 straight misses, Shaq and Kobe's partnership nearly dissolved. Collapse or comeback? The guys actually agree — mostly. 🏈 Music City Miracle & the Frank Reich Bills comeback — Was it the greatest…","meta_description":"Generations Talkin' My Sports | S4 E27 | \"Collapse or Comeback?
