Brett Brown continues to get out coached in big games. When they face off against the Celtics, they shrink. A lot of that has to do with the coaching of Brett Brown. He always seems to be getting out coached by Brad Stevens. When it comes to tight games Brett Brown becomes a really poor coach. He's a good coach, but as a strategist he is very challenged. John has some more interesting analogies to put a bow on the conversation. 

Manziel has been strongly influenced by others throughout the course of his career. Him signing with the AAF is about getting viewers and ratings The AAF is a product that needs time to flourish. People will feel like he's a gimmick, a way to sell tickets. John is still unclear about why Manziel is out of Canada. 

Coaches pretend they don’t listen to the media, but they do. Some coaches can recite chapter and verse what is said by the media. John has been around Atlanta for so long that professional sports teams have hired interns to listen to his entire shows so the owners could get certain feedback. It’s not the job of an individual radio on-air personalty to promote the team.

Can the problem with the Steelers be Big Ben? Two elite players at their positions in Antonio Brown and La'Veon Bell are gone and didn't have flattering things to say about Big Ben. However it was Antonio Brown who walked out on his team. He betrayed his teammates when they needed him the most. The way he handled himself in Pittsburgh at the end was horrible according to John. John is more accepting of La’Veon Bells strategy because he was willing to take a stand for something that he believed in.

John dissects why the MLB has been called the hot stove. However, it can still not compete with the NFL. Fans simply don’t turn off the NFL. The MLB has not capitalized the way the NFL has in terms of off season headlines. Look at how relevant the NFL off season has been with this past week alone. The NFL really knows how to market their sport.
