On today's episode: The Nationals have finally made the World Series and I'd like to take a little credit for that [0:06]. How did we manage to break the trophy after winning the pennant in 2003 [5:38]? Roger Goodell continues to address the public as if we're all fools [9:04]. Yes, tanking is real. Yes, there's an officiating problem [10:36]. No, Roger, we don't believe you. Jalen Ramsey's trade request reaffirms my opinion that a player revolt is ongoing [12:19]. How should owners handle this? Joe Maddon gets to return home to Anaheim to manage the Angels, but what sort of mess is he walking into [16:57]? Do executives root for players they traded away? 'Screwball' is the Review of the Day (I can't believe I compliment Billy Corben) [32:06]. We end with more baseball - the ALCS Game 4 being postponed and how this impacts the series, and how much money will Gerrit Cole get in free agency [35:32] #waittosee.
