Summary

Today’s word of the day is ‘rainman’ as in the movie with Dustin Hoffman as in Theo Epstein doesn’t really know what he wants, but everything sounds good. Will he take off 2021? Probably not. Does he want to sit out 2021? Probably. Will he be the New York Mets president of baseball ops? Probably (0:06). SO what’s going on with Cody Bellinger? You guys remember the Dodgers won the World Series, but there was almost a major disaster when Bellinger hit a home run and then dislocated his shoulder celebrating? Do you remember that? Now he needs surgery (5:40). So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me about Mac Williams suing the San Francisco Giants for having bullpen mounds on the field (12:19). Review - Friends From College (23:30). Student loan forgiveness conversation. What is happening and what could realistically happen. I want to discuss this in the context of financial aid and education and college in general. I am passionate about this and it is trending like crazy right now (30:45). NBA DRAFT NIGHT! The NBA also announced a split schedule release for the season and a play-in tournament for the playoffs! Whoa.
