Today on The Jason Smith Show, Arnie Spanier and Martin Weiss are in for Jason and Mike! The guys open the show with a discussion on the state of bowl games in college football. NFL writer for Sports Illustrated Matt Verderame joins the show to talk some NFL football, hitting on the Thursday Night Football game between the Seahawks and Bears, the Christmas Day slate of games, and setting up the rest of the weekend's matchups. They also react to a snoozefest of a Thursday Night Football game between the Seahawks and Bears, which leads into a discussion on the rumors that Pete Carroll wants to return to NFL sidelines, and has his eye on the Bears job.
