Throwbacks with Matt Leinart & Jerry Ferrara

In the latest edition of Throwbacks presented by Cash App, Matt and Jerry are joined by World Series champion Jack Flaherty. The 29-year-old pitcher spoke about what it’s like playing on a team of ego-less stars, what Shohei Ohtani’s group text said following his Game 2 injury and why Jack's all about Clayton Kershaw’s dad-bod. Flaherty also weighed in on our ongoing “too-many-celebrations-in-baseball" debate and shared some of his all time favorite sports video games as well. 

Plus, it’s that time of year where Jerry is forced to remind people that he was not in Detroit the night of the “Malice at the Palace.” And Matt shows some love to rookie Dalton Knecht following his 37-point outburst.

In the latest edition of Throwbacks presented by Cash App, Matt and Jerry share their thoughts on Micah Parsons’ comments about Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy and if it’s a sign of bigger problems inside of Dallas' locker room. The guys also wonder if Giannis Antetokounmpo’s time with the Bucks is beginning to wind down and if it would’ve been in Daniel Jones’ best interest to take less money from the New York Giants. 

Then, we get you ready for Jake Paul’s upcoming fight against... 58-year-old Mike Tyson??? That’s right, Tyson’s back in the ring for this fully sanctioned spectacle, the results of which WILL live on forever as part of his boxing record. Does the former champ actually have a realistic shot at upending the 27-year-old Paul? And are fights like this a significant part of boxing’s new reality? 

Finally, in this week’s “Throwback 3,” Matt and Jerry lay out the top 3 sporting events that they wish they had attended. Will Jerry’s inner New York come bursting out? Will we see a more patriotic side of Matt? Tune in to find out and please share your 3 with us as well!

Matt and Jerry also weigh in on Jason Kelce’s run-in with a “fan” and Joel Embiid’s run in with a reporter leading to Jerry’s explanation on the need for athletes, fans and media to co-exist. Jerry also explains why Saquon Barkley’s unbelievable move against the Jaguars should be nicknamed “the heartbreaker” and Matt explains why he was bothered by Michael Thomas’ shot at Saints QB Derek Carr.

It’s a bonus edition of Throwbacks as Matt – who was in the Bronx for Game 5 – basks in the glory of a Dodgers championship while Jerry recedes into the darkness of a Yankees meltdown.  

The guys share their thoughts on all angles of this year’s World Series – from the raw emotion of the final out to one of the most disastrous innings in baseball history. Plus, we wonder what uniform Juan Soto is most likely to be wearing in 2025; could it possibly be the uniform of the team that just defeated him? And Jerry tells us how he managed to cope with the Yankees loss and when he thinks he’ll be ready to start thinking about baseball again.

In the latest edition of Throwbacks, Matt Leinart and Jerry Ferrara are joined by former All-Star and 2009 World Series champion Nick Swisher as we get ready for this year’s edition of the Fall Classic. The guys discuss Juan Soto’s instant impact in the Bronx, Derek Jeter’s legendary leadership in the clubhouse and just how difficult it is to hit major league pitching. Nick also analyzes his less-than-stellar first pitch before Game 2 of the ALCS and talks about the type of “sideline dad” he is when it comes to watching his girls play softball. 

Speaking of sidelines, Matt and Jerry discuss some of the more taboo elements of sideline conduct in the NFL and we wonder if the Boston Celtics can be even more motivated than they ordinarily would be after a couple of notable some summer slights. 

Finally, in this week’s “Throwback 3,” the guys lay out their top three sports conspiracies of all time. Get out your tin foil hats and fire up the X-Files music as we ponder everything from frozen envelopes to phantom punches.
