Summary

I want to start hour 2 talking about how my weekend went. I went back to camp. (9:45) What happened in Minnesota this weekend was a disgrace. What is wrong with this country? We continue to just not get it. (19:30) What’s going on with the Washington Nationals? Falling apart and the manager just blamed the players. That’s it. Said it’s not on the coaches. Hmm. (34:30) Are the baseballs different in MLB this year? Yes, but no one inside baseball will acknowledge it. Andrew McCutchen will! (47:50) Desmond Bane was traded for a monster return to the Orlando Magic. It is over for Memphis. The Western Conference passed them by. Now the Magic have a real shot to do something in the East.
