Summary

Craig Carton has had enough! After watching the 2026 MLB All-Star Game, Craig goes OFF on American sports fans for constantly complaining about everything — too much pitching, not enough offense, boring games, bad entertainment and more.

Chris McMonigle pushes back as the guys debate whether the All-Star Game exposed a bigger problem with modern baseball — or with the fans watching it. Plus, Craig and C-Mac react to Boyz II Men’s rough performance and discuss encouraging comments from Giants coach John Harbaugh about letting Jaxson Dart use his legs.
