Today’s word of the day is ‘cause’ no not because or not cause something will happen; this is as in terminating a contract for cause. Former Houston Astros president Jeff Luhnow is suing the Houston Astros. The Astros fired Luhnow for cause and he says it was a breach in his contract saving the team from having to pay him $22M. More and more drama in Houston. So what is cause? What would allow a team to fire someone for cause (0:06)? The Washington Nationals have already invited new President-elect Joe Biden to throw out a first pitch at a game. The team released a statement about it. Why would the Nationals already be doing this? Politics (12:38). Tua Tagovailoa finally had his moment. A highlight-reel game against Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals. So what can the Miami Dolphins do to capitalize on what Tua has done? How do you promote your franchise star (19:31)? Review - Everything Is Illuminated (29:05). So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me about the Chicago White Sox and Tim Anderson. The question that was posed to me was about how the relationship between Tony La Russa and Tim Anderson will get along (33:30). Let’s catch up on what MLB said about Justin Turner and the World Series drama. Rookie of the Year is announced tonight… who wins? #waittosee
