On a brand new edition of the only digital radio show devoted exclusively to Underdogs (when there are games), host T.J. Rives is back with special guests going over the resumption of some sports, like UFC, Nascar and now golf, this weekend.

First, Brian Edwards of Vegas Insider and MajorWager.com is back on board with his thoughts on the NBA’s plan to resume later this summer and with 22 teams. He also goes over some of the odds to win the title that have been set, now that we know the format the league will use. Brian also has more on the UFC fight cards that are upcoming on their “Fight Island” in the Middle East and also on the shooting death of former Florida Gators and NFL star Reche Caldwell this past weekend.

Next, T.J. brings on his friend Jason Sobel of the "The Action Network," to talk the PGA Tour returning to it’s schedule after the 3 months of shutdown for the Coronavirus with the Charles Schwab Challenge in Ft. Worth, TX. It’s an All-Star field with the likes of Phil Mickelson, Rory McIlroy, Dustin Johnson, etc. being part of the resumption of gold. Jason also has a couple of Underdog betting tips to look for to possibly win this event.

Finally, Dave Woloshin or “Wolo” of Memphis radio fame is back on the podcast to talk about sports and “The River City.” Wolo has been on the air in Memphis for 35 years. What does he/do Memphians think about the Grizzlies being the NBA Western Conference 8th playoff spot, but now having to play more regular season games, when they resume in late July?

Also, Wolo recounts the 18th anniversary this week of Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson fighting in Memphis and a TREMENDOUS story of what movie stars came and sat down next to him, as the action unfolded?!

More exciting ways to interact with the show still to come!

On the latest edition of the only digital radio show devoted exclusively to Underdogs (when there are games), host T.J. Rives and guests are back.

First, T.J. brings back Gary Segars of the "Winning Cures Everything,” show and podcast. Gary and T.J. go over the NBA continuing to flounder with their plan to resume their suspended season later this summer. And, they debate the idea of having some regular season games played with some of the teams, as opposed to just starting the playoffs now.

The guys also discussed the recent proposed NFL new method of replacing the onside kick with a fourth down play at the offensive team’s 25 yard line. It won’t be happening for this season, but should it be for next year? You’ll want to hear why the make the compelling case it should.

Next up, Pulitzer Prize nominated author Jon Pessah from New York is on the show to discuss his new Yogi Berra autobiography, “Yogi- A Life behind the Mask.” Jon, who is a lifelong Yankess fan and historian spent 4 1/2 years researching the book and interviewing dozens of former teammates, people in the Yankees organization and people who knew and were with Berra for his entire career and life. The unquestioned Hall of Fame catcher and leader of the Yankee dynasty, helped lead them to 10 world titles in his career, including an eight year span (1949-56), where NY played in seven of the World Series and won SIX of them.

Berra is so beloved, even to this day, by Yankee fans for the last three generations that Jon’s book appeared immediately on all of the best seller’s lists for sports, then, sold out completely on it’s first run. And, he has already had a second printing of the autobiography.

His book makes an outstanding gift for any Yankee/Yogi fan in your life, including for Father’s Day coming up!

Hear all of the conversation, insight, and trip down memory lane for the Yankees and their fans on this edition of “3 Dog Thursday!"
