Summary

Today’s word of the day is ‘Christmas Break’ as in the holidays are here, the NBA usually plays, the NFL may play some games, but what about the NHL? It’s quiet time. That’s right, the NHL is shutting down for a few days. Interesting. (8:40) The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are bringing back Antonio Brown. Why? Because they stink right now. Injuries have decimated the WR group. Bruce Arians excuses are ridiculous. Tom Brady was not happy at all this weekend. He was mad about the Godwin hit. He was mad at the Saints interim coach. He was MAD! (22:45) Review: Swan Song. (27:15) Alabama is getting ready for the College Football Playoff. The last thing Nick Saban wants is his team to get covid before the games. So Saban spoke about what he is having his team do. (31:25) NPPOD. (35:10) So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me a question about a lawsuit against MLB. Well, step into the courtroom with me. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
