On Thursday's podcast, I returned from vacation with reaction to Giancarlo Stanton clearing waivers, while describing the complications that would come with the Boston Red Sox trying to trade for him before the waiver trade deadline on Aug. 31. I also shared some thoughts on Ezekiel Elliott's six-game suspension, Mayweather vs McGregor's 8-oz gloves, Kenny Omega losing in the G1 Climax finals, and WWE SummerSlam on Sunday.
