One of the best sports months on the calendar has arrived and so is the latest podcast delivering all of what is, has and will take place throughout the landscape. On deck:

(6:40) October has us sports fans ready to witness the beginning of two new seasons (NHL & NBA), the height of two others (NFL & college football) and the conclusion of another (MLB) and that’s where I’ll begin. Leave it to the Mets to be the only team NOT to sweep the Wild Card round. I’ll recap the first two matchups vs. the Brewers and delve into tonight’s do or die game and who this’ll fall squarely on ESPECIALLY, if they lose (ahem, Pete Alonso). I’ll unpack the rest of the Wild Card Series which includes the red hot Detroit Tigers, the puzzling Houston Astros, the gritty Kansas City Royals, the disappointing Baltimore Orioles in the AL. The Padres look to be on a mission as they dispose the Atlanta Braves with ease. I’ll preview the Division Series in both leagues with the big picture question, which team is facing the most pressure? The Yankees, Dodgers or Phillies? There’s news regarding front office moves in STL & SF. Sending out prayers to former Dodgers legend Fernando Valenzuela as he needs to step away from the microphone to battle some health issues. And I’ll remember Pete Rose as he passed away on Monday at 83.

(55:43) Davante Adams wants out of Las Vegas. Where does he go? Is there a landing spot for him? What about Tyreek Hill? Does he want to go back to Kansas City? I’ll see what the Week 5 schedule in the NFL looks like as there are a few games to look forward to. Also, the four game suspension handed down to Bills LB Von Miller.

(1:08:33) College Football Week 6 is quite feeble, although you do have a National Championship rematch where #10 Michigan visits Washington on Saturday.

(1:10:14) I’ll look back at the life of Dikembe Mutombo who passed away on Monday at the age of 58. With training camps open, LeBron James had an interesting comment on the expectations of the Lakers heading into the season.

(1:16:13) The NHL will begin the 2024-25 season tomorrow, but in earnest starts on Tuesday. Commissioner Gary Bettman is already looking to open discussions on a new CBA that’s not set to expire until September of 2026! I’ll go over the over/under point totals of the year in light of an NHL preview next week.

(1:20:57) There’s a UFC light heavyweight fight Saturday night where Alex Pereira & Khalil Rountree will square off for the title in Salt Lake City, Utah.
