Summary

NFL Network reporter Tom Pelissero how the Rams are able to keep giving huge contract to the likes of Aaron Donald and Cooper Kupp in the face of NFL salary cap restrictions, if Deshaun Watson could be put on the NFL’s Commissioner’s Exempt List in the wake of the civil lawsuits against him, and why it might be in Baker Mayfield’s best interests to play one more season with the Browns instead of forcing a trade to a less-talented team like the Carolina Panthers. Basketball Hall of Famer Grant Hill tells Rich how close he came to signing with Michigan out of high school before opting for Duke, the motivation for his new autobiography ‘Game,’ why being part-owner of the Atlanta Hawks was a plan that germinated back in college, that whoever wins Game 4 between the Celtics and Warriors will go on to win the NBA Finals, says why LeBron James’ chances to win another title are rapidly shrinking, says why he enjoyed exchanging trash talk with Michael Jordan, and shares his favorite stories of Bill Raftery and making his classic ‘This Is SportsCenter’ ad with Dan Patrick. In his weekly ‘Big-Ass Grab Bag’ TJ list his top 5 TV characters among Magnum P.I., Venus Flytrap from ‘WKRP in Cincinnati,’ Crockett and Tubbs from ‘Miami Vice,’ Sam Malone from ‘Cheers,’ and The Fonze from ‘Happy Days.’ Learn more about your ad choices.
