Kenny and Pete prerecorded this episode on Wednesday, March 20th at a late ass time to talk about pro day results, week two of free agency and what energy they're gonna keep now that Vontze Burfict is an Oakland Raider.

Touchdowns and Tangents discusses some of the NFL's biggest movements this week in free agency. They share the winners and losers as well as who else is still out there. Of course, the dynamic duo shares updates on the Rams, Chargers, Raiders and Kyler Murray. Kenny and Pete get into a heated discussion about Phuck Boi culture.

Kenny & Pete talk about the reported and then cancelled Antonio Brown to the Siberia Bills of Buffalo fame trade and what it means for the Pittsburgh Steelers draft options. One might argue the Bills would've won this deal either way. Kenny loves French Vanilla ice cream but he & Pete know Vanilla ice cream isn't really a flavor. (A rant for another time.) The fellas give some free agency and franchise tag updates and close the show dropping jewels on the falsehood of "just work hard & keep your head down" philosophy that keeps getting pushed on millenials in media, specifically journalism. Millenials suffer from permanent job insecurity and "gatekeepers" have lots of outdated advice but all the King's riches. You don't want to miss this.

Kenny & Pete deep dive into the NFL combine, free agency, franchise tags, the demise of the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the human trafficking sting New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft got stuck in. We touched on other things and we found a new hood chinese spot.
