Summary

Episode 319: BOOM! Dave’s writing a book on Jim Brown with the great Jim Brown, so Coach, Mark, and D.C. Dan have taken over the show once again! They debate how much criticism Jameis Winston really deserves. SLAM Senior Editor Tzvi Twersky joins the guys to discuss the 2014 FIBA World Cup and tells you why the New Orleans Pelicans could surprise a lot of people (hint: Anthony Davis is really, really, good). Finally, it would be a true hiatus from Dave if he didn’t call in, and he lays the hammer down on Roger Goodell and the NFL.
