Summary
Mike and Rico kick off the first show of the week wondering if Tarik Skubal can somehow work his way into MVP considerations if he continues his dominant stretch of pitching. They get to Caitlin Clark in the second hour, with Valenti leading the "I don't care" charge on the topic. Then, the guys take a detour from the Clark talk with a scathing criticism of Kyrie Irving from Valenti, wondering if there are any players in all the major sports you hate as much as he hates the Mavericks guard.

| 1:46.3 | Schouble, who's now 8 and 1. He has a 192 ERA. He has a whip of 0.89-1 and if you extrapolate his numbers he is |
