MLB Homestretch (AL/NL Wild Card Update) Yanks Prepare For Playoffs, NFL WK 3 Storylines (Daniel Jones, Minkah To PIT, 3-0 vs. 0-3, NBA Envy for NFL Players?) NBA Tampering Measures
Autumn has arrived! With that, a new episode (#92) that's chock full of sports talk. On deck:
We’re down to the final week of the baseball season. I’ll recap what’s happening in both the AL/NL Wild Card races. Will there be a play in game for CLE/TB? What happened to the Cubs? Mets still alive…barely. Also, has Mickey Callaway saved his job for 2020? What about expectations for next year regarding the Amazins? Then there are the Yankees, as they have clinched their first division in seven years. Upon their celebration, word came down that a key contributor will not be on the team come October. I'll discuss what affect that may have on the team and the roster as they complete the final week of the regular season. I’ll add in a CC Sabathia for the Hall of Fame debate in there as well.
NFL Week 3 was so-so, but there are a couple of storylines to sink your teeth into. The Daniel Jones era is off to a resounding start with the Giants. How I compare this first game to, dare I say, Michael Jordan’s NCAA Championship win at North Carolina. I’ll explore the career of Eli Manning and whether or not he’s destined for Canton, OH at the Pro Football Hall of Fame. I’ll discuss the big trade in Pittsburgh as Minkah Fitzpatrick comes north as a #1 pick for next year goes south to Miami. The 3-0 teams vs. the 0-3 teams. As well as, are NFL players adopting the 'NBA player empowerment' mentality as a way to get their demands met?
Speaking of the NBA, I’ll share my thoughts on the latest measures to stop tampering from running rampant throughout the league moving forward. Plus, my Hero and Zero of the Week.
