Summary

Today's word of the day is 'sellout' as in the Notre Dame Fighting Irish home sellout streak is over (0:06). There was mayhem in the NFL last night with Myles Garrett (1:09) and Mason Rudolph, but what's the real message? We cheer for extreme violence in sports all the time and NOW we have an issue... let's talk about why. Is today a day that ends in 'Y'? It is? Okay, so the Astros are still cheaters (10:22).

0:00.0	I missed everyone. I'm so happy to be back because I got a word today for you and it's
0:10.6	sell out. Now you think that sell out is talking about something that's going on. Maybe
0:14.9	with Miles Garrett, maybe the Houston Astros. Now we'll get to that sell out as in 273 straight
0:22.5	sell outs by the Notre Dame football team. That dates back to 1973. They've sold out
0:28.5	their building since 1973 and it ends this weekend when Notre Dame plays Navy. Are they
0:35.1	despondent about that? I don't think so. That's quite a sell out streak if you think about
0:39.0	it. That is approximately almost 45 years. So that means the ticket sales people actually
0:46.0	have worked to do now in Notre Dame. So my word of the day is sell out. But what I'm waiting
0:50.6	to see is whether or not there's anyone in Notre Dame who can actually sell tickets
0:55.1	because they haven't had to make any outgoing calls. It's all been incoming. But after this

1:04.6	we have to start hiring people to start a new sell out streak. Everybody's talking about
1:10.1	Miles Garrett. I'm no exception. I have been bursting at the seams the last two days to
1:14.6	talk about some of the things that have been going on. But I am starting, middleing and
1:19.0	ending with Miles Garrett and what took place on the football field last night. I want
1:23.7	to break down a couple of things and I'm not going to rehash what we have done for breaking
1:27.4	news, both on CBS Sports HQ. You've seen it everywhere. I want to look at a different
1:31.8	angle here slightly. Why is it that in the Miles Garrett situation, we're not taking a look
1:37.4	at the sport of football and some of the violent things that take place on the field, both
1:42.4	during the play and after the play. So Miles Garrett did the inexcusable thing. We're
1:48.8	not talking about it. He hit Mason Rudolph over the head. Yes, he did with a helmet with
1:54.6	Rudolph's helmet. All of that we know. I want to show you the video one more time because
