Plugging away in the summer heat, back to deliver another podcast with  more of the same through your headphones, earbuds or speakers as I get into all that’s happening in sports. On deck:

(2:38) It’s my first foray in taking the podcast OUTDOORS as I’m in the Sunshine State over the next few days, providing a new and interesting wrinkle to the latest episode. For the visually inclined, I have the VIDEO PODCAST on my YouTube channel so you can see for yourself. (Link to channel is below)

(3:57) Of course, I have to mention my partnership with OLIPOP soda. Please see description above. I greatly appreciate your support!

(4:56) The ‘second half’ of the baseball season will commence tomorrow as the All-Star Break has come and gone. I’ll review what happened at the Home Run Derby & Midsummer Classic earlier this week to set the stage for what could lie ahead over the final two and a half months of the season. I’ll break down the intriguing storylines (i.e. AL division races. NL wild card race) and what impact will it have for those who are fighting for a playoff spot, with the trade deadline looming at the end of the month.

(22:44) The final golf major of the year is at the Royal Troon Golf Course in Scotland. It’s already been a struggle for many of its top players as the weather could be a factor over the next few days. With sluggish starts to Rory McIlroy, Rickie Fowler and US Open champion Bryson Dechambeau, will guys miss end up missing the cut?

(28:36) Two big time wide receivers have been in the news as NFL training camp will be in full bloom by this time next week. Brandon Aiyuk wants out of San Francisco, but the front office wants him. If he does get shipped elsewhere, I’ll explain why that wouldn’t be as big of a blow for a 49ers squad expected to compete in the NFC. Then Davonte Adams stated that if he were to play on another team, it would be one where Aaron Rodgers will be under center. Let the rumors begin with the Jets possibly looking to acquire him. Is this an actual possibility? Or is it much ado about nothing?

(35:43) There were a couple of passings, unfortunately, to acknowledge in the NBA. One time executive of the Orlando Magic, Pat Williams, dies at 84. And Joe “Jellybean” Bryant, the father of the late, great Kobe Bryant dies at 69. Then you have Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving nursing a broken hand that he suffered during a workout earlier this month as he should be ready come training camp in late September.

(39:22) Things in the NHL have been rather quiet, but there have been a couple of signings (Kings Quinton Byfield, 5yr//$31M and Islanders Simon Holmstrom gets a one year deal) Plus, one long time Washington Capitals star, Evgeny Kuznetsov decides to go back home and play in the KHL.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.
