In this lively episode of "Geeks Who Like Sports Mashup," hosts Ray Carsillo and Lee MJ Elias creatively blend the worlds of sports and gaming. Inspired by the role-playing game Dragon Age, they explore how athletes might fit into the game's character classes and backgrounds. The discussion kicks off with Saquon Barkley being likened to a rogue Antivan Crow for his elusive moves, while Patrick Mahomes is dubbed a mage Veil Jumper for his magical plays. The Kelsey brothers are seen as warrior Lords of Fortune, embodying strength and glory. The hosts also delve into other sports, with Shohei Otani and Connor McDavid fitting the warrior archetype, and Jalen Brunson as a shifty rogue. As the conversation shifts to the geeky side, Ray and Lee humorously imagine a fantasy game featuring athletes as characters, pondering the potential of a game where sports stars like Mahomes, Curry, and Crosby team up in a Dragon Age-inspired adventure. The episode wraps up with a call to action, inviting listeners to share their own athlete-class pairings.
