Rich tips off the hour debating on whether or not he’s fully on-board with the NFL’s new Play-In format.

ESPN Senior NBA Writer Jackie MacMullan tells Rich about the deep connection between Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan on the eve of Kobe’s Basketball Hall of Fame induction, how Kobe transformed himself from brash young upstart to one of the game’s all-time greats, why Jordan might be too emotional to deliver Kobe’s HOF induction speech, and more. 

Rich and the guys wrap up the hour debating which player is most deserving of a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame: Frank Gore, Eli Manning, Julian Edelman, or Philip Rivers.
