Talk about embarrassing for Fox Sports. Last night Greg Olsen took home an Emmy for Best Sports Analyst.

I don't know about you, but I sure miss Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson doing the games with Mike Breen. I know this is subjective, but Doris Burke and JJ Redick just don't mesh with Breen like JVG and Jackson! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoicesעל ידי Grant Napear

On today's episode I reflect back on the career of Hall of Famer Jim Otto. Otto passed away this week at the age of 86. 00 is one of the most iconic images in pro football history. Otto played 15 seasons and never missed a game. He was a pro both on and off the field. I think you could make a strong argument that Otto is still the greatest Center e…

So much for home court advantage as both home teams lost yesterday in Game 7. I have to give the Timberwolves a lot of credit. I thought they were done after losing Game 5. So, we are down to four teams. Who do you think holds the trophy when it's all said and done? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…

On today's podcast I discuss Harrison Butker of the Kansas City Chiefs. Butker recently delivered the commencement address at Benedictine College. He made comments on several topics that stirred much criticism and debate. I let you listen to an overview by ABC News and then we listen to an interesting conversation with NFL Network Host Rich Eisen a…

This past week has once again shown how there are no boundaries when it comes to someone's personal life. It began with Tom Brady's roast on Netflix and now it's Rory Mcllroy's turn as his divorce appears to be front page news. I don't get it, I really don't! Learn more about your ad choices.

I do not understand the appeal of having Draymond Green on TNT. I really don't. I guess society today is all about rewarding bad behavior. And how good is the Nuggets Nikola Jokic? He made Rudy Gobert and the Timberwolves look like amateurs last night! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…

So I guess Fox Sports is going to make me gag the next 5 months with Tom Brady hype. Yesterday's absurd skit with Michael Strahan in the Fox studio promoting Brady's Week1 assignment was enough to make me vomit! Awful!!! Learn more about your ad choices.

This week has once again showed how cozy the league wants to be with its players. Jamal Murray of the Nuggets only was fined for throwing a heat pack onto the court during Game 2 this past Tuesday. Patrick Beverly of the Bucks forcibly threw a ball at a fan and then berated an ESPN reporter in Indianapolis and gets a four-game suspension. Only four…

Do you watch NFL pregame shows? On today's episode I discuss the recent firings of Phil Simms and Boomer Esiason by CBS. They are being replaced by J.J. Watt and Matt Ryan. Is there a reason for this? I play an excerpt from the Michael Kay Show on ESPN Radio, New York. Kay insinuates age played a role and that is a slippery slope for CBS. I also re…

What a wild scene at Madison Square Garden last night as the Knicks beat the Pacers to take a 2-0 series lead. The Knicks being relevant once again is good for the league. Period. And the atmosphere at MSG has been off the hook! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoicesעל ידי Grant Napear

Why Is Rashee Rice still on the Kansas City Chiefs. One would think after leaving the scene of a high-speed accident that injured several people would be enough for his immediate dismissal. Now Rice is suspected of an assault that occurred early Monday morning at a Dallas nightclub. The person who was assaulted went to the hospital after the encoun…

Raise your hand if you had the Nuggets scoring only 80 points last night? It was all Minnesota as they cruised to the win and a 2-0 series lead.

On today's episode I review the Sacramento Kings season that resulted in 46 wins, but not good enough for the playoffs. I always like to look at 5-game increments. I think that is a better way to evaluate a team. I give a grade for every 5-games and then a letter grade for the players and coach. Bottom line, I saw this as a step back for the Kings …

Yesterday the NBA announced the winner of the NBA's Sixth Man award, and it was not Malik Monk of the Kings. Naz Reid of the Timberwolves edged out Monk by two first place votes. Nothing against Reid, but I think Monk got screwed here! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoicesעל ידי Grant Napear

Folks are still talking about Lebron James comments regarding the officiating after Monday's loss to the Nuggets. I have an answer...how about not blowing a 20-point 2nd half lead. The Lakers by the way shot 507 more free throws this season than any other team in the league! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…

This past week the NBA gave a lifetime ban to Jontay Porter of the Raptors for his involvement in betting on NBA games. Is this just the tip of the iceberg? In today's episode I explore the perils of sports gambling particularly among young men. It is fast becoming a big problem in our society. I let you listen to a few stories from our major netwo…

If you're stupid enough to bet on games in the league you play for then you deserve to be banned forever!
