What if you had to reduce your entire tabletop sports game collection to just ten titles?

In Episode 261, James takes on that challenge—but this is not simply a list of his ten favorite games. With only one game allowed per sport and one per designer or game company, he builds a collection designed to provide variety, replayability, historical projects, fictional worlds, solo play, multiplayer options, and a balance between full-play and express games.

From the four major sports, and a collection of others, James explains the difficult decisions behind every choice—and the beloved games that narrowly missed the cut.
