Summary

Today's word of the day is 'abdul' as in Paula Abdul as in every time it seems like MLB takes two steps forward, they take two steps back. It seemed as though a deal was about to be reached and then covid-19 spiked and now things look bad again for the return of sports (0:06). Orlando cases are spiking and that's not great for the NBA bubble at Disney. Rumors are swirling that LeBron James and the Lakers are holding secret practices at a Staples Center replica court. Let's talk about why this is bad for business (15:34). So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace reportedly had a noose put in his garage area at Talladega. It was found by a member of his team. As we await more details to come out on this story let's talk about how racism is still at the forefront of NASCAR (23:25). MLBeard Challenge Day 97-99: The Education Trust, University of Wisconsin, Camp Interlaken JCC (29:12). Review - Boyz N the Hood (34:40). Eagles TE Dallas Goedert was sucker punched at a bar in South Dakota over the weekend. The video is horrible to watch.

0:17.4	the song, opposite, it's a tract. Because opposites attract you take two steps forward,
0:26.7	two steps back. God, I have the worst voice. I was thinking what could be the word of
0:32.3	the day that would have any relation to what went on this weekend, what's going on in
0:37.0	the world of sports, what's going on in the world of COVID. And all I kept thinking about
