Welcome to Mic Check Episode 216 of Monday Night Raw (on a Tuesday this week)— where we indeed check the mics, then get straight into the real sports talk.We start with Braves Chop Talk and a moment Braves fans have been waiting on: Andruw Jones is officially a Hall of Famer. We talk about what he meant to Atlanta, why it took so long, and why this one hits different for Braves country.Then we pivot to the sports business side — because the conversations behind the scenes are starting to matter just as much as the games. We break down how the Dodgers’ spending has owners talking salary cap, why MLB’s labor situation could get tense fast, and what that could mean for the future of baseball. If you love the business chess moves, this is a segment to lock in on.From there, it’s Hawks Talk — and it was a rough stretch: three games, three losses. We recap what went wrong, why rim protection and three-point defense are still major issues, and why some folks need to relax while the roster builds chemistry after recent moves. We also get into closing lineups, roles, and what needs to change if the Hawks are going to stabilize.We also shout out Coco Gauff for putting real support into HBCU tennis programs, because that kind of investment matters — especially for sports that usually get overlooked.And we wrap with a quick convo on the college hoops eligibility / G-League / NBA pipeline debate and why the “auto-correct” of the market always shows who’s really ready.If you’re rocking with The SplashCast with Reggie & Norwood, make sure you like, subscribe, and follow — more heat coming all week.#SplashCast #DiveTeamMedia #Braves #Hawks #MLB #NBA #HBCUChop Talk (03:30)Andruw Jones TO THE HALL OF FAME!!!!Braves sign young prospects Baseball News Around The League (08:00)Dodger broke baseballOwners want a salary capHawks Talk (19:45)Trailblazers (20:04)Celtics (26:00)Bucks (35:17)Koloko 2 way signing (45:30)NBA News Around The LeagueJimmy torn ACL 54:00Tennis/HBCUCoco Gauff gifts 150k to UNCF (57:25)ExtraWhat you think about players suing to comeback from the gleague to play college basketball?
