LA Dream

Quick update on a busy summer, reflecting on a career, memories of Vlad Guerrero and Matt Leinart.

Life update! Co-hosting new show on Golden Boy Radio, Lakers talk and listeners comments.

Fun weekend. Worked boxing in LA on Friday, then Saturday in New York. Survived two crying kids on the plane and story about my first ever credential.

The first time I met Fernando Valenzuela he was quiet. Years later when I see him, he's still quiet. But it is cool when your childhood idol knows your name.

So how did I get into the boxing world? This weeks solo talk is about doing boxing play-by-play

I played baseball and survived! Respect to all those that still swing it in their weekly games. And who was my favorite player to deal with?

​This weeks episode Beto Duran, Tom Hoffarth, and Steve Lowery talk Josh Rosen, boxer Rod Salka's "America 1st" trunks, the Clippers and Lakers offseason wants and needs, the Dodgers slow start, and Eric corrects his previous Hockey predictions.

Im back! Been a while but had to let you know what I've been up to.

In the latest episode of The Drill Beto Duran offers his critiques of the episode 5. Steve Lowery and Tom offer their takes on who is in best position to captivate Los Angeles for the summer, Patrick Reed winning the Masters and the story that wasn't being told. Plus Tom rants about his dislike of broadcasters taking part in superstitions Facebook.com/The Drill Sports Twitters: @DuranSports @TomHoffarth @SteveLowery12 @McKLVtheJon
