Behind the Line

Katie Nolan has been a consistent failure throughout her media career. Even with that being the case...Katie Nolan continues to be given opportunities in sports media. Her latest opportunity is being an analyst for AppleTV for Major League Baseball.

The stint of Katie Nolan with Major League Baseball has been an abject failure. Of course...Katie Nolan doesn't blame herself for her lack of ability. Katie Nolan is blaming men. We react to recent comments made by Katie Nolan...describing her lack of success with AppleTV.

We explain how Katie Nolan refuses to accept personal responsibility...and would rather blame men for her inability to connect with the Major League Baseball audience.

The WNBA regular season begins tomorrow...but talk surrounding the league is once again centered around off-the-court issues. WNBA players and teams have spent the week making their feelings known about the latest Supreme Court decision.

We analyze several responses from around the WNBA. The Atlanta Dream...Brianna Turner...and Natasha Cloud have all been vocal in their disagreement. We explain how the WNBA once again finds themselves on the wrong side of an issue...and how the WNBA shouldn't be involving themselves in the first place.

Mina Kimes used comments made by former Chicago Bears scout Chris Prescott to further the mainstream media agenda against the NFL. Chris Prescott commented about second-round pick Jaquan Brisker...and it sent Mina Kimes and Mike Freeman from USA Today overboard.

We compare the mainstream media reaction to Chris Prescott and Jaquan Brisker...to the reaction to Ian Rapaport and Matt Corral. We explain why the media didn't overreact to Ian Rapaport and Matt Corral...and how it further proves the agenda the media has against the NFL.

Draymond Green finds himself once again immersed in controversy during the NBA Playoffs. Draymond Green overreacted to Memphis Grizzlies fans during Game 2...and made some interesting comments justifying his behavior during the postgame press conference.

Draymond Green was a topic on First Take with JJ Redick and Chris Russo. JJ Redick had an interesting reaction to the opinion of Chris Russo. We play and react to the clip...and discuss JJ Redick possible boarding the ESPN woke train.

Stephen A Smith has been highly critical of Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons throughout the NBA season. Stephen A Smith stayed on Kyrie Irving all season for missing games due to mandates...and Ben Simmons for missing the entire season while physically healthy.

The opinions of Stephen A Smith drew the ire of Stephon Marbury and Jamie Foxx. Both Stephon Marbury and Jamie Foxx went after Stephen A Smith for criticizing black athletes. We discuss this ongoing notion that Stephen A Smith shouldn't criticize black athletes...and how the notion is actually a hinderance to the culture.

Jackson Mahomes recently took to TikTok to ask his followers if they're ready for another NFL season of him performing on the sidelines. Jackson Mahomes was immediately met with people begging him to go away.

We play and react to several of Jackson Mahomes latest TikTok videos. We discuss how the novelty of Jackson Mahomes is wearing off...and his videos are receiving decreased viewership. We explain why Patrick Mahomes might not have to step-in to put a stop to the behavior of Jackson Mahomes...as the younger brother could be on his way to wearing himself thin with the public.

We have another AAU basketball tournament being ruined for the kids by their parents. We discuss what happened at an AAU tournament outside of Boston over the weekend. 34-year old Jose Mow was involved in an argument with parents from the opposing team.

Instead of controlling his emotions...Jose Mow escalated the situation. We explain what happened...and the lack of consequences the criminal justice system gave Jose Mow. We also discuss the problems in society caused by absentee fathers.

The mainstream media is hyping up the history making performance of Kelsie Whitmore. Over the weekend...Kelsie Whitmore made history in baseball by being the first woman to start a game in the Atlantic League.

We react to Kelsie Whitmore being allowed to play professional baseball against men. We explain how Kelsie Whitmore is being used in the fight to confuse gender roles. We also discuss the possibility of Kelsie Whitmore achieving her dream of playing Major League Baseball.

Last week...Wimbledon announced they weren't allowing players from Belarus or Russia to compete in their tournament this year. Wimbledon claimed it was their responsibility to limit influence.

The mainstream media...who always points out examples of mythical situations like this...is clearly ignoring a real example. We discuss the mainstream media ignoring the Wimbledon ban of players from Belarus and Russia. We also give the reason the media is ignoring this story in Wimbledon.

The WNBA will begin their 26th regular season this week. The WNBA has seen a massive increase in media focus the last two years...which has resulted in a slight increase in television ratings.

However...the WNBA is standing at a crossroads this season. A new policy included in the CBA signed in 2020...which forces players to choose between playing overseas and playing in the WNBA...could have a devastating impact on the future of the WNBA. 

We discuss the prioritization policy that will go into effect in the WNBA in 2023...and the potential impacts it will have on the league.
