The NFL Returns: Tom Brady’s Vlogger Era and Who’s Serving (Looks) at the US Open

Listen Later

Football is back, and so are Amanda and Blake (fresh off their post-Olympics mini vacation). They’re ready to bring you weekly episodes about the sports stories dominating your feeds. Between major sporting events like the US Open and the kickoff of the NFL season, there’s a lot to get to this week. 

In this episode of Well Played, we’ll cover: 

  • Whether Tom Brady’s Youtube career sparks joy or gives us the ick (spoiler: kinda both?)
  • The power of AI in sports via Yahoo Fantasy Football’s unsolicited roast of Amanda’s team
  • The BBC sports commentator who is seeing his doctor instead of taking full accountability for sending sexually explicit texts to his coworkers
  • Why some are calling the Paralympics TikTok account “edgy” 
  • A quick Skimm of the NFL rule changes for kickoffs and hip-drop tackles, plus a preview of this weekend’s games 
  • Why this year’s US Open feels like Fashion Week 2.0 with a side of tennis and Honey Deuces
