The Sports Experience Podcast with Chris Quinn and Dominic DiTolla

Episode 249 of “The Sports Experience Podcast” is here & we’re back on the hardwood discussing Dikembe Mutombo.

Originally from what is now known as the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Mutombo came to America & starred at Georgetown University in the basketball court.

At 7’2”, Dikembe was a 2x Big East DPOY and was picked 4th overall by the Denver Nuggets in the 1991 NBA Draft.

Arguably the best defensive Center of his era, Mutombo was an 8x All-Star & won the NBA DPOY a total of four times! Mutombo’s number 55 was retired by both the Nuggets and Atlanta Hawks & he was elected to the Naismith Basketball HOF in 2015.

Episode 248 of “The Sports Experience Podcast” is here & we’re back on the gridiron discussing Mike Ditka.

As a player, Ditka revolutionized the Tight End position. One of the first true offensive weapons at that particular spot, “Iron Mike” made the Pro Bowl five times & led the Chicago Bears to the 1963 NFL Title.

A late career stint in Dallas led to his first Super Bowl title in 1970, and Ditka later won another Super Bowl as an assistant with the Cowboys in 1977.

Yet it was as Head Coach with the Chicago Bears where Ditka became an NFL icon. Ditka led the “Super Bowl Shufflin’” Bears to a victory in Super Bowl XX, and won NFL Coach of the Year twice.

Episode 244 of “The Sports Experience Podcast” is here & we’re back on the diamond discussing Curt Flood.
In a National League stacked with incredible Outfielders in the 1960s, Curt Flood definitely made his mark with the St. Louis Cardinals.

A consistent .300 hitter towards the top of the Redbirds’ lineup, Flood was a 3x All-Star, was a 7x Gold Glove winner and helped St. Louis earn World Series titles in 1964 & 1967.

However, Flood’s most important contribution to the game and professional sports as a whole was his challenge of MLB’s reserve clause. Though it helped to prematurely end what could’ve been a Hall of Fame career for Flood, his sacrifice led to free agency in MLB less than a decade later for his peers and future generations of players.

Episode 242 of “The Sports Experience Podcast” is here & we’re back on the hardwood discussing Clyde “The Glide” Drexler.
Though not heavily recruited out of High School, the high-flying Drexler established himself as one of college basketball’s most exciting players on the up-tempo “Phi Slamma Jamma” teams at the University of Houston in the early 1980s.

In the NBA, Drexler developed into one of the league’s best players as a sharp-shooting, high-flying wingman for the Portland Trail Blazers. Though Portland & Drexler lost in both of their trips to the NBA Finals, Drexler eventually got his ring in 1994-1995 with his hometown Houston Rockets.

Drexler averaged 20.0 PPG, 6.1 RPG, 5.6 APG for his career, won a gold medal with the 1992 “Dream Team” and was eventually inducted into the Naismith & College Basketball HOFs.

After incredible 1991 & 1992 seasons at Notre Dame, Bettis was drafted 10th overall by the Los Angeles Rams & took the NFL by storm when he won the 1993 Offensive Rookie of the Year Award.

Though he fell out of favor with the coaching staff with the Rams, Bettis cemented his HOF career over ten seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

“The Bus” was not only massive but possessed some of the quickest feet for a Running Back in NFL history. Overall, Bettis finished his career with over 13,000 rushing yards & 91 TDs, was a 6x Pro Bowl honoree and helped Pittsburgh win Super Bowl XL in his final professional game.

Episode 238 of “The Sports Experience Podcast” is here & we’re back on the diamond discussing Randy Johnson.

Although he struggled early in his career with mechanics and control, Randy Johnson could be considered the best Left-Handed Pitcher in the history of Major League Baseball.

Standing an imposing 6’10” with an over 100 MPH Fastball and Slider which could reach the mid-90s, Johnson was a 5x Cy Young Award winner. In addition, “The Big Unit” was a 10x All-Star, was Co-MVP of the 2001 World Series, won 303 MLB games and finished his career with the most Strikeouts of any Left-Handed Pitcher in the history of the league (4,875, 2nd only to Nolan Ryan all-time)!
