If you need a sports fix that’ll satiate your appetite, then you’ve come to the right place as Episode 151 has it all! Get ready to chew on the following:
(2:35) A programming note as I make light to some possible audio distractions throughout this podcast.
(3:16) Covering these topics as the NBA playoffs first round is coming to a near close:
The Jazz’s commanding lead, Luka Doncic’s heroics, a Celtics-Raptors second round preview, the future of the 76ers and the Nets, the Timberwolves winning the draft lottery (and hope the for the Knick fan?) and the Masai Ujiri incident at Golden State after the Raptors won the championship.
(30:24) Not a lot of excitement as the NHL heads into the Conference Semifinals. On deck:
The Golden Knights goaltender controversy regarding G Marc Andre Fleury, the travesty of the NHL today opposed to 30+ years ago, and Islanders-Flyers second round preview. (A reverse jinx in store?) Mike Milbury’s comments which led to his dismissal at NBCSN.
(46:13) The halfway point of the MLB season. The wild and wacky NL East. The Mets affected by COVID and changes to their pitching rotation. Can the Cardinals make the postseason by playing less than 50 games? Zooming through the baseball landscape in both the American & National Leagues.
(57:09) Earl Thomas gets the boot in Baltimore. Is he still effective? Is he worth the risk? Coach Ron Rivera’s cancer admission. Commish Roger Goodell apologizing for Colin Kaepernick AGAIN? The 77 COVID tests that were false positives.
(1:02:59) Golfer Dustin Johnson wins another tournament (his 22nd over the last fifteen years) With only one major victory under his belt, is he the best golfer of this generation?
(1:06:41) My Hero and Zero of the Week.
