Summary

There will be a show tomorrow, but no shows Wednesday-Friday! Today’s word of the day is ‘motormouth’ as in Pittsburgh as in Detroit as in Steelers as in Lions as in DK Metcalf as in fan. DK Metcalf grabbed a fan and looked to throw a punch at that fan during the Steelers win over the Lions. And nothing happened during the game because the NFL said no flag was thrown? WHAT? Let’s discuss this event and how wrong it was by the fan, by Metcalf and by the NFL. (15:00) The Miami Dolphins will not bring Tua back next year. The Miami Dolphins will bring Mike McDaniel back next year? WHY!? (25:40) The Los Angeles Dodgers have broken another record. This time it’s the size of their luxury tax bill. Awesome! (35:15) Review: Sean Combs: The Reckoning. (40:00) NPPOD. (45:00) Murakami is headed to the Chicago… White Sox? And not on the giant deal everyone thought? Hmmm. (49:30) The St. Louis Cardinals continue its teardown. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
