Summary

*Correction * I made a grammatical error yesterday when speaking about Theo Epstein and I need to address it. Today's word of the day is 'roulette' as in this perfectly describes what the MLB draft is. Here is how it works, how I viewed the draft, and how front offices prepare for it. I'll also share what it's like to work with a scouting department (1:26). So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me if MLB will accept the latest offer from the MLBPA (20:07). Review - Bottle Rocket (33:26). NBA could see a condensed 2021 season. The NBA needs approval from the NBPA first. Let's talk about what this means (34:53). MLBeard Challenge Day 87: ACLU (40:32). Fight Island is here and it's real, but I have some issues with what Dana White promised. #waittosee --------------------------- 'Nothing Personal with David Samson' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox, Bullhorn and wherever else you listen to podcasts.

0:19.8	mistake as it relates to subjects and object pronoun use.
0:24.4	And Theo put me in a statement and I said it should have been I.
0:28.2	He did say that instead of who, but that's not relevant.
0:30.9	The fact is I was wrong in grammar.
0:33.8	Theo was right.
0:35.8	And I appreciate the people who got into my Twitter at David P. Samson.
0:40.6	As I was doing the segment yesterday, it felt like I may be wrong.
0:45.8	But if you ever been in that position where you go down a road and you say, you know what,
