Bright Side of the Sun brings you another Sunday Funday edition of its For the Fans, By the Fans Podcast.  As always, Paul and Justin tackle the latest in Phoenix Suns' news, as well as other hard hitting (at least as far as they're concerned) issues.  Included in this week's pod the guys discuss:

- the Suns' current two (count 'em, two!) game winning streak and how the highs and lows so far are likely an indicator of how things will go for the rest of the season;

- which Suns player Paul thinks is the "odd man out" and where he may be an ideal fit;

- the impressive start to the season for Tony Buckets; and

- why LeBron James is to blame for the Cleveland Indians losing the World Series.

Justin also reminds everyone that we are still looking for donations to Bright Side Night, while at the same time giving Paul a lesson on how to eloquently deliver a plug (Paul returns the favor by giving Justin a lesson on the three major cities in Ohio and why there's a hockey team in Columbus).

As always, you can hit Paul (@DervishofWhirl) and Justin (@SoSaysJ) up on Twitter.
