I’ve got my sleeves rolled up, ready to unleash the inner sports beast as I have plenty to say over the course of the next hour plus as the latest episode is here. On deck: (6:48) NFL Week 1 was all that, a bag of chips and a six pack of your favorite beer. You have 15 cities that is dreaming of a trip to the Super Bowl and 15 others that think the sky is falling and that their season is over. There are four places that have expectations, but disappointed their fan base (i.e. Falcons, Browns, Bengals & Giants) due to their lack of execution and flat play. I’ll highlight each team, go through all of the games this weekend. On top of unpacking Dak Prescott’s the richest player in NFL history, Lamar Jackson’s play in the opener against KC, the Ravens predictability on offense, Roger Goodell wanting SIXTEEN international games and Kendrick Lamar’s your Super Bowl Halftime performer. How do you think his adversary, Drake feels about this? (45:58) There were two loud booms in a rather quiet college football Week 2. Texas went into the Big House to play the defending champion Michigan as took them to the back of the woodshed, winning 31-12. Is Texas a threat to be a champion before the end of the year? Will Michigan bounce back from his hangover? What happened to Notre Dame? They were a 28.5 point favorite vs. Northern Illinois only to lose in the final seconds 16-14. Does this loss bode well for the Fightin’ Irish? Or one that may be tough to overcome in the long run? (53:20) We’re down to the final three weeks of the MLB season. Things are status quo as there are only two races worth discussing. The AL East between the Yankees-Orioles and the final NL Wild Card spot with the Braves-Mets. (58:56) The US Open concluded yesterday as the tennis year went out in a whimper as Jannik Sinner won his first Open title, amid controversy surrounding two recent failed drug tests. And Aryna Sabalenka overcomes a loss to Coco Gauff in the final last year to beat Jessica Pegula for her initial Open win. (1:04:21) I’ll wrap up with some NBA news as Nuggets guard, Jamal Murray gets a max contract. (1:05:34) And two retirements in the NHL by the Staal brothers (i.e. Eric & Marc) as they combined for 35 years in the league and move on to the next phase of their respective lives.
