And We're Off

One of my best friends from my hometown of South River, NJ Brian Sanborn jumps on to talk about his Bills finally being rid of Tom Brady. His movie comparison to him being out of the division is top notch. Also we reminisce about the 1996 Yankees and the 1994 Knicks. Enjoy and stay safe!

Jackie Powell of High Post Hoops joins me to discuss New York Liberty Free agency. Will Bria Hartley be back now that Layshia Clarendon is in the fold? Will Brittany Boyd be here when the season tips or will she be involved in a trade? Tina Charles is cored, but will she be moved? Jackie has thoughts on everything. Follow her on Twitter @ClassicJPow and follow @HighPostHoops as well.

Last week I did a tribute to my late father. Unfortunately, just a week later I am paying tribute to my 57 year old cousin who shared a love of the Yankees and Giants with me. He also coached me in basketball in high school. Bob wore many hats over the course of his life, and whatever hat he wore, he went above and beyond the call of duty. Most recently right before his passing, he was Director of Emergency Services for the town of Princeton, NJ. He also served as the Fire Marshall for Princeton University. My family has endured profound loss over the last ten months. My therapy is to be able to sit in front of my microphone and talk. I thank you in advance for listening and getting to know my cousin a bit. He was a great human being and he will be sorely missed.

My father passed away back in November. I haven't done my podcast a lot since his death. Today, I wanted to share my story with you. My father is where my competitive nature comes from and where my love of sports originated. He was also the 'corner man' of my career. There have been a lot of times he had to figuratively 'cut me' like Mick had to with Rocky. He always got me back up to my feet and sent me back in the game thinking better of myself. I miss him terribly and I wanted to give him this tribute.
