Summary

Rich reveals his updated NFL Power Rankings heading into Week 12. Dodgers catcher Will Smith and Rich revisit the craziest moments from the wild 2025 World Series including the play at the plate that came inches away from deciding the series in favor of the Blue Jays, his extra innings home run in Game 7, Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s pitching heroics, and more. Smith lauds manager Dave Roberts and marvels at Shohei Ohtani’s singular greatness and Clayton Kershaw’s legendary competitiveness. A long-standing show topic/controversy is finally put to rest as Robert De Niro returned a signed version of Rich’s ‘Goodfellas’ poster after the late Ray Liotta pointed out years ago that the original cast member signatures on it were fakes.
