Welcome to "The Mad Scientist's Sports Lab", hosted by "The Mad Scientist of Sports" Nick Ficorelli and "The Apprentice" Andrew Gluchov. This is not the average everyday sports show they are bringing to the air waves. "The Mad Scientist" has created his own personal sports lab, and you, the audience, as well as many of his special guests, will be his test subjects. He will throw theories out, and you never know where they will be coming from. He will keep everyone guessing, and he will open his lab to any and all comers. Be prepared for "mad science" sports talk at its best.

This week is another jam-packed episode as we talk about some MLB History, NBA Free Agency Madness, NFL News, and more. At the onset, we welcome Russ Goldman of Patriots 4th and 2 and Gary Davenport of Bleacher Report into the lab to talk the wild and wacky week of the NFL - The Redskins Trademark Issue and why players shouldn't mess with fireworks. Halfway through the first hour, we have Derek Bain, the author of "Hardball Retrospective", which shines a light on the history of Major League Baseball. At the top of hour #2, we have Antwan Staley of NGSC Sports and Pro Players Insider to discuss NBA Free Agency, and DeAndre Jordan's swerve which possibly altered the Dallas Mavericks for a long time, and why it still won't help the Clippers get out of the 2nd round of the playoffs. And, in the final half hour, we have Terry P. Johnson of The Student Section joining us to talk some NCAA Football and give some of his early previews of the upcoming season.

The beacons have been lit, the experiments will be a plenty, and the test subjects shall be rolling in - "The Mad Scientist's Sports Lab" is OPEN.

"The Mad Scientist of Sports" Nick Ficorelli returns. However, this is not the average everyday sports show he is bringing back to the air waves. "The Mad Scientist" has created his own personal sports lab, and you, the audience, as well as many of his special guests, will be his test subjects. He will throw theories out, and you never know where they will be coming from. He will keep everyone guessing, and he will open his lab to any and all comers. Be prepared for "mad science" of sports at its best.

This week is a special epsiode of The Mad Scientist's Sports Lab, as at the start of the show, he welcomes Kansas City Royals legend Willie Mays Aikens into the lab. Aikens was once one of the most feared hitters of the late 1970' and early 1980's with the Royals, helping lead Kansas City to the AL pennant in 1980. However, drugs overcame him, and he ended up in prison for almost 20 years. However, since his release in 2008, Aikens has spoken at schools about his experiences and to the Royals’ young players, always hoping to return to baseball. In November 2008, he apologized to Royals fans and the people of Kansas City in the Kansas City Star. In 2011, he returned to the Royals Family in the organization, and has since wrote a book about his rise, fall, and rebirth "Safe At Home". As an extra added attraction, JP Muzio, former host of The Sports Ministry and Off The Wall, will be joining me on the interview.

Also appearing this week - 30 minutes into the show, Andrew Garda of NJ.com and Bleacher Report to talk some New Jersey college sports (Rutgers, Seton Hall and more); at the top of the second hour, Derek Helling of Outside Pitch MLB returns to preview the American League West; and for the last 30 minutes, Matt Zemek of The Student Section to talk some NCAA Basketball and a Preview to March Madness.

The beacons are lit, the experiments are set, and "The Mad Scientist's Sports Lab" is open for study!!!
