Complete Super Bowl LVIII Preview & Taylor Swift Tracker? NFL Opens In Brazil On A FRIDAY? NBA Trade Deadline Surprises? Oilers Layoff Throttles History. MLB Deals Involving Witt Jr. & Altuve
It’ll be a SUPER podcast as we cap off the final game of the NFL season and everything else happening in sports. On deck:
(3:05) A way too early pregame show on CBS. A Taylor Tracker monitoring pop’s biggest superstar’s arrival in Las Vegas. And, oh yes, there is a football game being played Sunday night in Sin City between the San Francisco 49ers vs. Kansas City Chiefs. I’ll have a complete breakdown of what the keys will be for both teams, matchups to look for and who’ll win the 58th version of the big game. I’ll also share my thoughts on the halftime show with Usher headlining the festivities, the commercials, how this’ll be the most watched television show in history, color commentator Tony Romo, among other things that surround Super Sunday. I must add my two cents on the NFL, not only playing in Brazil as we know, but when they’re playing this game. A Friday? Seriously?
(36:21) The trade deadline in the NBA has arrived. By 3pm today, we would expect some wheeling and dealing as teams look for reinforcements for the stretch run of the regular season. Will the Sixers make a play for Bulls guard, DeMar DeRozan with reigning MVP Joel Embiid on the shelf for the next four weeks?
(43:52) #3 Kansas Jayhawks become another top team in college basketball to suffer a loss as in-state rival Kansas St. defeated them earlier this week. With all of the unpredictability of the sport this year, can we even project who the four #1 seeds are if the season ended today?
(46:21) After a long All-Star Break layoff, the Edmonton Oilers were unable to match the 1992-93 Pittsburgh Penguins for the longest winning streak in NHL history as they fell a game short, losing to the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday night. The Vancouver Canucks continue their winning ways, with newly acquired Elias Lindholm making a contribution, as they’re playing well above anyone ever imagined coming into this season.
(50:45) With pitchers and catchers ready to report a week from now, there were two signings of note in the MLB. Royals shortstop, Bobby Witt Jr. inked an 11 year/$288.7 million dollar deal. And Jose Altuve will stay put in Houston as he signed on for a five year/$125 million dollar contract.Please subscribe, leave a rating and post a review on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Audacy, Amazon Music and iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts.
