Summary

Today’s word of the day is ‘committee’ as in the Baseball Hall of Fame. We could have talked about the College Football Playoff Committee, but what happens in baseball is beyond ridiculous. The Golden Days Era ballot was announced… all 10 candidates are dead. Why does it take so long for us to honor people? Why can’t it happen when they’re here? (16:45) Miami Hurricanes coaching search update is hilarious. Manny Diaz is still the coach. Mario Cristobal is who they want to be the coach. Miami has offered him big money, big upgrades, the true South Beach special. (29:50) Review: House of Gucci. (34:45) Big Ben news leaked out that he was out of Pittsburgh after the season. Who do we think leaked this? It shouldn’t surprise you. (38:45) NPPOD. (42:25) LeBron James was held out because of health and safety protocols. Then he was allowed back because he tested out of protocols. What was happening? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

We're going to get to the rest of the weekend sports news.

1:01.6

But we got to start with the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame.

1:05.0

The Hall of Fame is unreal. It's a place where you go in Cooperstown and you go and look at the

1:11.9

history of the game. And in theory, it gives you the entire history of the game.
