Show notes

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant break down the Cowboys' opening loss to Tampa Bay and whether they can afford another road loss to the Chargers if they want to be taken seriously as a Super Bowl contender [2:02]. David says it's not a "must-win," but it's close. Evan gives us four shortstops the Rangers should pursue in free agency, and Kevin says it reminds him of money-whipping Alex Rodriguez [16:22]. The difference, Evan says: "A-Rod was reprehensible." And Kevin surprises Evan with the news that Kellen Mond is no longer the Aggies' quarterback.

Show notes

Adolis Garcia has earned his spot on the Rangers next season, but does he have a future with the club past 2023 [15:04]? Dak Prescott's future is secure in Dallas, but will his shoulder strain linger all year [19:14]? And is Garrett Gilbert or Cooper Rush really the best the Cowboys can do for an insurance policy? Finally [27:00], the Pac-12, Big Ten and ACC are forming an alliance. Notice that does not include the Big 12.

Dak's out, the Rangers down, the Aggies up and hatch chili peppers are in Aug 17, 2021

Show notes

The News’ Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant cover a wide range of topics in this week's podcast, highlighted by the fact that rest for Dak Prescott's bum shoulder is bad news for the Cowboys' chances against Tampa Bay in the season opener [8:52]. Still, it's the thing to do. Evan and Kevin debate whether the best news for the Rangers [18:38] is the development of a trio of young pitchers, or is it the fact that the season is more than two-thirds over? Texas A&M came in sixth in the AP preseason poll [26:09] and Jimbo Fisher 34th in ESPN's top 100 college football coaches of the last half-century. Kevin says that, and Lincoln Riley's dominance in Oklahoma, are bad omens for Texas' Steve Sarkisian. And, in light of Evan's libelous assault, David defends the honor of the venerable hatch chili pepper. Bon appetit.

Putting away the Big 12 leftovers, another Mavs free agent whiff and Dak's sore shoulder Aug 03, 2021

Show notes

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant each give the Big 12 schools abandoned by Texas and Oklahoma a future, whether through expansion or in other conferences [4:19]. New GM Nico Harrison couldn't deliver the Mavs' their top free agent target, Kyle Lowry, so the onus is on Jason Kidd to make sure Kristaps Porzingis is a legitimate second option [16:80]. And Dak Prescott's sore shoulder is the low point of training camp so far. The high? Well, you've gotta listen [27:27].
