So MLB owners no new CBA by Monday and games will start getting cancelled?   Good to see they are an amenable group.  Hansel Emmanuel congrats on the basketball scholarship offer from Memphis.  Penny Hardaway could teach you a few things.  Tom Brady the actor.  “80 for Brady’” about four women taking a road trip to see SBLI.  Agree with Liz Cambage that she sho...

Send JD a text message and be heard! Joel Embiid said he reached out to Ben Simmons a week or two before the trade and got a pic with the guy in his post after the trade.  Only in America.   Happy birthday Dr. J.   Paul O’Neill getting his number #21 retired by the Yankees.  They retire way too many numbers.   UNC got their 20th win last night over Louisville.  Would be considered a good year but...

Send JD a text message and be heard! Juwan Howard I love the intensity but it’s going to lead to a suspension when your team is fighting for a postseason berth.   Norway Winter Olympics record 16 gold medals.

Send JD a text message and be heard! Thanks to Gumbochef for sending video of a mic’d up Joe Burrow at SBLVI introducing himself to Rams players.  He got nothing from Donald or Miller.  All Star Weekend in Cleveland is here.

Send JD a text message and be heard! Cam Thomas hit a dagger three and the Nets came from 28 down and beat the Knicks at MSG.  3rd Knick loss in last seven games which they blew 20+ point lead.   Thibodeau must go!  But seriously Knick fans deserve better.  MLB met for fifteen minutes today.  So you don’t want to play this year.  Mikaela Shriffrin DNF for 3rd time at Beijing 2022 games.  Canada wa...

Send JD a text message and be heard! Shailene Woodley and Aaron Rodgers looked so happy to me.  Gosh darn.   Rams SBLVI parade looked quite sparse to me.  Traffic is crazy in LA.    So all unvaccinated visiting players can play at MSG.  Why can’t Kyrie play?  It is a Nets road game at MSG tonight.   Arch Manning I hope you end up at Texas.  I have a connection for home games.   Tonight USA vs Cana...

Send JD a text message and be heard! Sha’Carri Richardson has a point. She was unable to compete but ROC’s Kamila Valieva is in Beijing?  And her legal team is blaming it on contamination from her grandfather’s meds!   I call baloney.    Seth Curry helped Nets break 11 game losing streak.  Ben Simmons is ramping it up.  Used to be you got traded and played.  Now it’s ramping it up.   I really hope...

Send JD a text message and be heard! Cooper Kupp showed me that he was the NFL MVP this year. OBJ free agent to be tore his ACL last night.    In the end the Bengals couldn’t get one yard.  Hey Zac Taylor why didn’t you run Joe Mixon on that 3rd and 1?   Samaje Perine? Aaron Donald and Von Miller showed Bengals management the need to invest heavily in offensive linemen this offseason.   USA vs Can...

Send JD a text message and be heard!

Send JD a text message and be heard! Universal DH I love it.   Ben Simmons now a Net but when is he actually playing.  After the All Star break only 23 games for KD, Simmons and Kyrie to build chemistry.  Actually only 10 of those are road games.  They’re professionals.  They’ll figure it out.   Bryan Harsin will get year two at Auburn.  Good luck.  Aaron Rodgers wins back to back NFL MVP’S.   Tha...

Send JD a text message and be heard! LeBron and the 26-28 Lakers have a lot to work to do to contend this season and without a healthy AD that’s not happening.   NASCAR at the LA Coliseum is a great new location for racing.   NHL All Star game new format makes me miss the East vs West.   Don’t like the 20 minute games.   #24UNC Women’s Basketball up 28-2 after one over Miami and cruise to 85-38 wi...

Send JD a text message and be heard! What happened between Bill Belichick and Brian Flores?   Flores worked on Belichick’s staff for 11 years.  No love lost there. Still not sure how Bill Belichick kept Brian Flores from getting the NY Giants job.  What’s more alarming is that there have been only 19 African American head coaches in the history of the NFL.  There is no spitting in basketball. UCLA...

Send JD a text message and be heard! Love the new Kobe Bryant All Star Game MVP trophy.   MLB wants to bring in Federal mediator.  In 1994 led to cancelling of World Series.  Jim Harbaugh staying at  Michigan.  Is he going to do this again next year if the NFL calls again?  I wouldn’t be happy if I was thinking of going to Michigan.   All sports.  One podcast.  (even hockey)  PODCAST LINK ON ITUNE...

Send JD a text message and be heard!
