Summary

Today's word of the day is 'gold' (0:06). Adam Gase is an absolute disaster as a head coach so let's breakdown whether or not he should be fired right now (0:55). Odell Beckham Jr. is a quote machine, the Browns are an embarrassment, which means my job is easy (4:09). Willie Taggart was fired after 21 games at Florida State and the school was somehow able to put together $18M to buy him out - where is that money coming from (6:37)? Let's discuss. Mets GM Brodie Van Wagenen calls the Mets a "players' first franchise"... uhm what (10:19)? Imagine winning a marathon in your debut? Well, someone did that at the NYC Marathon and I'll tell you why that's so impressive (15:35). Review of the day - 'Fleabag' (19:15). A high school football coach was suspended for running up the score last week and it's caused me to lose my mind (21:42). You ever wonder why league-owned networks play nice with the league? Here's why. What is the 'South Beach Flu' (35:25)?

0:00.0	Go Go gloves. That's the nothing personal word of the day. Did you see what happened in the
0:12.9	pictures gold glove? Zach Renke 1 1 Mike Leak 1 1. That's funny because Zach Renke
0:18.8	1 1 playing for the diamond backs and then was traded to the American League Astros. Mike
0:23.4	Leak 1 1 for the Seattle Mariners in the American League and then was traded to the diamond
0:28.6	backs in the National League. Shocking but true. You had two pictures gold glove members
0:33.8	who each one in the leagues in which they did not finish their season. Is that the best
0:38.6	MLB could come up with? Yes because they truly were the best. Word of the day. Gold.
0:46.4	Well we had a lot of things happen over the weekend. That's for sure. I love weekends
0:51.3	in the fall. You know it's the first again without baseball. But I got a lot of football.
0:57.6	Got a college. Lot of NFL and you got to start where I start as a New Yorker as a Floridian
1:05.2	crying out to please. Is it possible that we can fire? Adam Gase. How do you decide to

1:35.9	the media in Miami all they all say the same thing. They may be taking upstairs but down
1:40.6	here we're doing everything we can to win every game. Well you can't really win the Kentucky
1:47.0	Derby with a bunch of donkeys can you? So it's not like they're going to win. It's not
1:51.6	like they're going to make the playoffs. So why not even tank as well as you possibly
1:56.4	can. Well by winning the game against the New York Jets a game which I think both teams
2:01.5	were actually trying not to win. That's how bad a game it was. The difference is the media
