Former MLB pitcher-turned-doctor-turned-throwing guru Tom House tells Rich about the “circus atmosphere” at Atlanta in 1975 when he caught Hank Aaron’s 714th home run ball, says how Tom Brady having success will into his 40’s compares to the sustained career of dominance Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan, what it would take for the likes of Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes to have extended NFL careers, how long Shohei Ohtani can maintain his 2-way success, and reveals what advice he has for parents as they guide their kids along their athletic journeys. 

In his first ‘4 Downs’ segment of the new NFL season Rich weighs in on Falcons rookie WR Drake London, what AJ Brown has brought to the Eagles’ offense, why you shouldn’t sleep on Lamar Jackson and the Ravens’ passing attack, and how Mike Tomlin could finally win Coach of the Year honors.

Rich reacts to Seahawks fans booing Broncos QB Russell Wilson in his return to Seattle, and to the Cleveland Browns’ misguided decision to put a giant Brownie the Elf mascot painting on their field at the 50-yard line.
