WIll explain why we should trust the words of NFL commissioner Roger Goodell when he says he wants to be part of the change in our society and Black Lives Do Matter. Why we shouldn't ask NFL owners for more than employment to give their players the platform they need to try and make a difference. The LeBron James effect on the younger generation of NFL players give me hope for the future. My admiration for San Antonio Spurs HC Gregg Popovich, and the perfect role for Michael Jordan in the fight for quality and equal opportunity
Fallout continues from the MURDER of George Floyd. Explain what good can come from the tragedy and how these heinous domestic terrorist attacks have moved society in a positive way. Explain what my mission is for doing the show and how, why and when I use, "Real World" issues for my SPORTS show. The New Orleans Saints QB Drew Brees made headline for all the wrong reasons. Were his words, thoughts and feelings racist? Should we consider Drew Brees a racist? I'll explain my answer to both questions. What should he do to try and repair the relationships that were broken by his words
My thoughts and feelings about the murder of George Floyd and the act of rioting. As a nation and people living in it, where do we go from here and being to heal the wounds. Understand, education, acknowledgement, compassion would be a great start. Athletes respond to the murder, but group of athletes do we need to voice their displeasure and explain to their fans, the hurt and pain of others. NBA news, how will teams look when the season resumes and what challenges will the league face and how should they deal with it. What is to make of Mike Tyson and his recent emerging into our consciousnesses?
Without sports, MLB has a great opportunity to do something it has rarely done over the past 40 years...Lead the nation by example and make an impact on society, Will greed, arrogance and selfish ruin that opportunity? What has happen to the sport that once was a fabric of our country, and was a treasure and shining example to the world of how proud we were this was the, "American pastime"? Update on the progress the NBA is making and what will happen with college football. More discussion of the Last Dance. Who shoulders the majority of blame for ending the dynasty? Are you as tired hearing about MJ as I am?
The NFL owners had their annual meeting this Tuesday and the main topic of discussion was what to do with the lack of diversity in hiring minorities for head coaching positions and upper management roles. I give my thoughts and opinions about what can be done about improving the situation and giving my solution of what should be done. Former Carolina QB Cam Newton is still without a job in the NFL. Many people thought the LA Chargers would be the perfect fit, but they passed. I'll tell you why that was the right decision for LA.
Who's to blame if MLB doesn't start this season and what about the NBA resuming play. Discuss the challenges each league faces before starting and returning. Looking back at Michael Jordan's first retirement. What emotions did I have when he retired? Why playing professional baseball would have never worked for Jordan. Was his leadership style the best and unique? My feelings about LeBron James tweet about the MURDER of Ahmaud Arbery and criticism from someone about it. Despite the defections, I still believe in Patrick Ewing as coach of the Georgetown Hoyas...for now
The return of live sports happened this past weekend, with UFC 249. Thoughts and feelings about the new norm in sports and society in general. Why I think Justin Gaethje is a superstar. Will Tony Ferguson get another shot at the title, and will he be the same fither when he returns? Is Henry Cujedo serious about retirement? How George St. Pierre made me a MMA fan. My props and thanks to Tom Brady and it has nothing to do with him as a football player.
Thoughts about the latest episodes of the Last Dance. The apprenticeship between Kobe Bryant and MJ and how Shaq O'Neal must have bristled at that. Why the 1991-92 season was the peak of Jordan powers as a basketball player. Why he shouldn't be blamed for Isaiah Thomas not being on the 1992 Olympic basketball Dream Team and what impact that squad had on society today. Why the criticism of MJ's lack of political involvement is both fair and unjust. Explain for athletes of today, why Muhammad Ali is both a blessing and a curse
My thoughts and opinions about episodes 3&4 of the documentary, The Last Dance. Beside himself and his teammates, what other group of people are responsible for Jordan being the icon he is today. Why I have no problem with the Detroit Pistons walking off the court and not shaking hands after losing to the Bulls. Why MJ calling IT an a**hole is a look in the mirror situation. Is the NCAA doing enough to persuade HS basketball players from going to the G league. Another example of what college can do for an elite athlete. End off the podcast by pledging my belief in Georgetown Hoyas basketball coach Patrick Ewing
Reviewing the first and only NFL virtual draft. What I enjoyed most about it and review SNATCH THE PHONE gate, and MAMMA GOES FIRST gate. My thoughts and opinions about how a draft should be judge in the immediate aftermath and why the Cincinnati Bengals had to draft Joe Burrow. Did the Detroit Lions make a mistake not drafting Tua and should he play this season for Miami? Why Green Bay drafting Aaron Rodgers could sabotage this upcoming season, and anything that's hard takes hard work, Belichick haters.
