Summary

ESPN is at it again.  This time they took  Sage Steele of the air for comments made on Jay Cutler's podcast.  ESPN's public statement made no sense to me and I discuss on the show. I also talked about bad draft picks in the NBA and NFL.  It mystifies me how so many teams make mistakes at the top of the drafts.  And I wrap up the show talking about the MLB Playoffs.
