The boys are back!!!! Bob Lobel has been hospitalized with transverse myelitis, an inflammation of the spinal column, which has caused paralysis below the waist. Bob is getting world class care at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. Today, they recorded the podcast on Skype with Bob in his hospital room, while Mike Lynch and Hank Morse were in their respective homes in Winchester and Medford.
As for the podcast, the guys talked about Tom Brady signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the response of Patriots owner Robert Kraft and how he tried to spin Brady's leaving. They talked about Bill Belichick's role in the whole affair and Kraft's allegiance to Belichick ahead of Brady.
Then, they discussed Bruins owner Jeremy Jacobs and how the B's were the last franchise in the NHL to step up and help their hourly employees who work on the game day staff. It's stunning and awful and it doesn't even help the workers right away. There's a contingency.
Finally, they wrapped up talking about how Red Sox ace lefthander Chris Sale is having Tommy John surgery and is out for the season, if there ever is one. They also wondered when he'll have the surgery, considering elective surgeries are being postponed during the Coronavirus outbreak.
