It's our annual Super Bowl episode - but this one comes in stages.  The day after John and our show's producer recorded it, former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores filed a lawsuit against the NFLalleging racial discrimination, sham interviews for coaching positions, and more.  We recorded a second time to include that in the show, plus we also feature part ofan earlier Going Deep episode where John and Marcia explained why coaching in the pros is far more difficult than in college.
