Summary

Today's word of the days is 'midget' as in what a radio host was suspended for calling Baker Mayfield (0:06). The NFL player reps voted on a new CBA and now it's all going downhill. Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers hate it, the owners love it, some players like it... it's a big, big mess (0:30).. Really quickly, let's touch on Zion Williamson first showdown with LeBron James (12:07).. The Coronavirus is spreading and spreading fast. Yesterday news broke that it could impact the Summer Olympics; today it's all of sports. Let's start with how MLB would handle this and work our way all the way to Cristiano Ronaldo and Serie A (13:45).. Review - Sixteen Candles (18:50).. Stephen Strasburg got paid a whole lot of money by the Washington Nationals and he told the world why he signed back up with the team... it was laughable.. I have a message for Scott Boras... it's not a good one (23:22).. So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Angels owner Arte Moreno has a new deal where he purchased land around Angels Stadium and people want to know if that means he has more money to spend on the team now (32:25).. Steph Curry is coming back for the Warriors and I want to know why (37:20).! Luis Severino is done for the season and the Yankees desperately need starting pitching, but when does New York and Cashman make a move? #waittosee --------------------------- 'Nothing Personal with David Samson' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Castbox, Bullhorn and wherever else you listen to podcasts.

0:00.0	Here you go. Here you go.
0:06.0	Midget. That's the word of the day. Nothing personal word of the day. Tony
0:10.5	Grossi called Baker Mayfield a midget. He thought the microphone was off and
0:14.1	now he's in a whole load of trouble. It goes to show you that we are looking for
0:19.3	any reason possibly to get rid of anybody who says anything wrong on the media.
0:24.6	I think he's just vertically challenged.
0:30.3	We have a major problem in the National Football League right now and people are
0:34.3	talking about it from one perspective only and I would like to give you
0:37.9	another perspective on what's happening with the NFL PA. That's the
0:41.8	Players Association and these whole collective bargaining agreement
0:45.1	discussions and why the NFL is making a big mistake and the union by having
0:50.7	all of these players speaking out about what's currently happening. So let's
0:55.6	start giving you a baseline knowledge of where we are. The collective
1:00.3	bargaining agreement runs out. Obviously those are the rules by which we get to
1:04.1	watch football games. As fans we don't actually care too much what is in the
1:08.9	collective bargaining agreement. We just want the players to play period uninterrupted

1:26.8	It doesn't matter what side you're on. The fact is very simple. Play ball. Make
1:32.5	your differences disappear. So they go to the table they negotiate for 10
