Summary

Today's word of the day is 'tragedy' as in "not all tragedy is a crime" as in explaining what happened with the verdict in Kentucky in the Breonna Taylor case. It has been a big topic in this country especially in the sports world. Athletes and celebrities have been calling for months for the officers in Louisville, Ky to be arrested in Breonna Taylor's death. So let me explain right now what a grand jury is, how this ruling came to be, and why a settlement was reached. These are just facts about the case. No opinion.....(0:06) Kansas City Royals GM Dayton Moore has scathing words for the MLBPA. This is about the instructional league. What is this issue that he has? Why is it so important (14:50)? So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me if I would fire the team doctor for the Los Angeles Chargers after what happened to starting QB Tyrod Taylor. What happened to him? He had his lung punctured by the team doctor while getting an injection for a rib injury... just before kick off (25:00)! Review - Challenger: Final Flight (34:00). Let's run through some big MLB headlines. The San Diego Padres are in trouble. Mike Clevinger left Wednesday's game after an inning with a biceps injury and that is bad news. What will happen come playoff time if he can't pitch (39:15)? Trevor Bauer is going to win the NL Cy Young. He is pitching like a real threat and now the Cincinnati Reds are in a good playoff position (41:25). Ending today with some NBA talk. Will the Denver Nuggets tie the series at two with the Los Angeles Lakers (44:50)? #waittosee --------------------------- 'Nothing Personal with David Samson' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox, Bullhorn and wherever else you listen to podcasts.
