Let’s talk some football! This story with Mark Sanchez is so wild and crazy, it’s hard to believe it’s even true. I cannot believe it. We talk about the Dolphins and how Mike McDaniel needs to go. WE talk about fumbling running into the end zone. We talk about the Eagles problems. And then we get Coca losing his mind over the Ravens and Mets! (39:00) NPPOD. (42:00) What’s going on with college football now? Well it looks like schools have fully given up on the NIL Clearinghouse. Great!

I really appreciate everyone's messages sent to David these past few weeks. It means a lot that you all care. If you take one thing away from today's episode, outside of us arguing about ticket prices again, it's that you are never as alone as you feel. Your friends care. Your family cares. People care. Doesn't matter the size of the issue you are facing or feeling. Reach out to someone. Talk. Communicate as best you can what you're going through. It's life... we will all face pain at some point, but doing it NOT alone helps greatly.

Let's all be great!

Today’s word of the day is ‘Schlitt’s Creek’ as in Cam Schlittler as in the Yankees as in the Red Sox as in Wild Card as in history. Schlittler pitched one of the best elimination games in the history of the sport. 8 innings. 12 strikeouts. No runs. The Yankees blanked the Red Sox to advance! (23:00) The Padres and Cubs game was a wild! ABS needs to get here now! The Padres team lost its mind after the game for a blown called strike that was a ball. (30:00) The Tigers eliminated the Guardians! So much for that 15.5-game blown lead for the division! (40:00) NPPOD. (44:00) Caitlin Clark finally spoke. She agreed with Napheesa Collier. The WNBA is in a bad spot!

The Cleveland Browns are going with Dillon Garbiel in London! Not Shedeur Sanders. Not Joe Flacco. So much noise around this team. It’s ridiculous! It is always a mess with this team! (16:00) The Colorado Rockies have fired its GM. One of the worst seasons of all time. Bill Schmidt has been there since 1999, GM since 2021. Three straight 100-game losing seasons. 119 losses this year. Terrible farm system. (25:30) Bruce Bochy will not be the Giants manger. Not happening said Buster Posey. (30:20) What is going on with the Cardinals? What happened to the winning? Chaim Bloom is trying to change it. (37:00) Electronic Arts is being acquired for $55 billion… by the Saudi Public Investment Fund. Excuse me? (44:00) The Big Ten is about to get into bed with private equity. A $2 billion plan? What does that mean for the future of that conference?

Today’s word of the day is ‘statistics’ as in numbers as in facts as in predictions as in MLB as in baseball as in Wild Card. Let’s take a look at where these series stand. Three elimination games. The Dodgers swept the Reds. Baseball! We start with the Yankees and Red Sox. The Yankees took Game 2, but the biggest play happened when the 3rd base coach for the Red Sox held up a runner when he had a very easy chance to score. Why? (15:45) The Guardians tied up the series with the Tigers. Another elimination game tonight! (23:30) The Padres bullpen was lights out. Mason Miller… wow! 104.5 mph! Another elimination game! (30:30) The Dodgers swept the Reds. This series could have been an email. (34:15) Review: Boyhood. (40:30) NPPOD. (43:00) Brian Snitker stepped down as manager of the Braves. His contract was up and he decided it’s time. Now what for the Braves? A terrible season, but a great roster.

Today’s word of the day is ‘brink’ as in brink of elimination as in the Wild Card as in the postseason. The Yankees blew it at home. They had a chance at the end and were unable to score with bases loaded and no outs! (13:30) Tarik Skubal is the best. What a start for the Tigers. How can anyone score multiple against him? (17:00) The Dodgers crushed the Reds. Who didn’t see that coming? (19:40) Cubs beat the Padres. The Padres could not buy a hit after the first few innings. (24:30) Napheesa Collier went off on the WNBA commissioner. Never seen anything like it. Wow. (41:30) Review: Aka Charlie Sheen. (43:30) Ron Washington is out in LA. No longer the Angels manager. This will be the 5th manager they’ll need to hire in past seven years. No postseason again. Get it, Arte! (48:20) NPPOD.
