Wed, 07 May 2025 01:00:00 -0000

We've reached the 1000th episode of the No Laying Up podcast.

We've combed through the archives and pulled clips for as many of the gang's responses as we could and hope you enjoy this trip down memory lane.

The fact that it didn't quite work out that way shouldn't lessen the magic of that Sunday, or how we feel about Rickie a decade later.
