Summary

Today’s word of the day is ‘Steinbrenner’ as in Hal Steinbrenner as in the Yankees as in the Dodgers. Hal came out and essentially said not even us, the mighty Yankees, can keep up with the Dodgers. Wow. (8:25) The Dodgers are donating $100 million to the LA fire recovery effort. Incredible gesture. (14:10) Max Scherzer is in Toronto now. $15.5 million for one year. Really? (16:37) NPPOD. (24:50) Review: Dune 2. (27:12) So You Wanna Talk to Samson!? Someone asked me about Bryce Mitchell’s absurd comments and the lack of punishment from the UFC and Dana White. Interesting. (39:10) Justin Tucker has found himself in a place no one should be in. The same place Deshaun Watson is in. Another massage therapy problem. (48:00) Another investigation into gambling in sports. Here we go again. This time it’s about Terry Rosier, but it’s the same ring that got Jontay Porter ban! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
