Today’s word of the day is ‘Fogerty’ as in John Fogerty as in Centerfield as in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Carlos Beltran is in. Andruw Jones is in. That’s it! Two center fielders have made the Hall after just two in 45 years! Baseball is angry. Owners are angry. Kyle Tucker to the Dodgers. Bichette and Robert to the Mets. The spending gap is massive! Review: Sentimental Value. The Buffalo Bills have fired Sean McDermott. It’s all his fault. GM Brandon Beane gets promoted? NPPOD. It’s a So You Wanna Talk to Samson Wednesday! We start things off with the National Championship game! Can you give me your opinion on Indiana’s average age of its roster? Is this the new world we’re in? Baseball’s media rights deal is up in two seasons, but the CBA is up next season… Why wouldn’t the MLBPA take a one-year extension before signing a new longterm deal? Why doesn’t MLB just get rid of deferred contracts? How does Tony Clark spread his message throughout the union? Let’s talk Greenland.

Today’s word of the day is ‘patience’ as in Red Sox as in Ranger as in Suarez as in Garret Crochet as in Sonny Gray. Are you happy yet, Red Sox fans? Are you okay with this move? Boston gave Ranger Suarez a five-year, $130 million deal! John Harbaugh is head to the Giants. He will become the new head coach just a week after being fired by the Baltimore Ravens. He was the number option on the market, and the Giants are tired of losing. Let’s take a look at the Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs. What stands out to me? NPPOD. The Nationals are leaving MASN. It’s official. The TV deal is broken. RSNs continue to leave networks and join MLB. It’s another Coca Thursday! We start things off with some Game of Thrones!

Today’s word of the day is ‘Mitchell’ as in Joni Mitchell as in The Circle Game as in carousel as in Mike Tomlin is out in Pittsburgh. 19 seasons. He had enough after another first round exit in the playoffs. That means that the AFC North will see three new coaches. That means for the first time in 18 years the Ravens and Steelers will have new head coaches. And now Mike Tomlin could be headed from the sidelines to the studio! Does coaching matter? Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti took to the microphone yesterday and said the quiet part so loudly! And I LOVE it! Nolan Arenado has been traded to the Diamondbacks. The St. Louis Cardinals fire sale continues. And they are giving money away to do this. The Royals are moving in the fences. Shorter walls. Hitters park? It’s a So You Wanna Talk to Samson day! We start things off with Tony Romo v. Tom Brady. What happened to Romo? He was the prized whale. He was the cream of the crop. And these past few seasons he has regressed so much as a broadcaster. Why did Jose Ramirez take an under market deal? He’s one of the best players in all of baseball! How does the union feel about this? What is the Black representation in MLB? Is baseball working on this? Who is responsible for stadium demolition? Are the Bills paying for Highmark Stadium to be destroyed? What is the owner and GM relationship like? Is there ever a team building power struggle?

Today’s word of the day is ‘wild’ as in NFL Wild Card weekend as in the Packers as in the Eagles as in Josh Allen as in football! Let’s start with the Bears and the Packers. I cannot believe Green Bay lost that football game. Up 18 points. Division rival. Blow it! Will Green Bay choose to move on from Matt LaFleur? How did you feel about the Jacksonville reporter and Liam Coen? Did you wonder if it was the right message, wrong time? Are the Eagles going to fire Nick Sirianni? The team is a mess. A home loss to the banged up 49ers. One year removed from a Super Bowl win! Seahawks have sent a letter to season ticket holders warning about reselling tickets. Uh oh! Review: Golden Globes. Mike McDaniel has been fired. It was time. NPPOD. Alex Bregman is headed to the Chicago Cubs! What happened to the Red Sox!? Bregman is off to Chicago on a five-year, $175 million! $70 million deferred! Cody Bellinger and the Yankees are likely to part ways. Bellinger wants too much. Too much money. Too many years. Tarik Skubal filed at $32 million. The Detroit Tigers filed at $19 million. This arbitration battle is going to be something! MLB CBA chatter! What is going on between the union and the league? The Athletics did not get the trademark they wanted. Does that mean no Las Vegas Athletics? No Sacramento Athletics?

Today’s word of the day is ‘finished’ as in the NFL regular season is over as in the Steelers as in the Ravens as in it’s over. What a game on Sunday night. The Ravens took the lead. The Steelers took the lead. The Ravens took the lead. The Steelers took the lead. The Ravens missed the kick. Wow. The Atlanta Falcons have fired its head coach and general manager after a win that eliminated the Buccaneers and gave the division to the Panthers. Did you keep up there? The NFL Coaching Carousel is starting to spin. Let’s take a look at some of the other names from the Raiders to the Jets to the Browns and more! Myles Garrett has set the record for most sacks in a season. Bengals head coach Zac Taylor was so mad about what happened. Review: The Running Man. Let’s review both of them! NPPOD. The Winter Classic took place in Miami at Marlins Park. When you think hockey, you think south Florida heat.We start the top of the hour with a Coca rant on the Ravens. He had some things to get off his chest. Let’s talk tanking. The Toronto Blue Jays have full reloaded. Signing after signing after signing. After losing in the World Series they decided to go all in on free agents. What are the Diamondbacks doing with Ketel Marte? He has been rumored to be moved all offseason. Now the GM says they may not move him, but might move him, but probably not, but could. Let’s discuss wha happened in Venezuela this weekend. Where are the Nationals bringing their TV rights? Will it be MASN? Will it be MLB? We end today with Gayle Benson. The owner of the Pelicans and Saints. A common talking point on this show.

Today’s word of the day is ‘new beginnings’ as in New Year as in 2026 as in the New England Patriots. What is going on there? Stefon Diggs could be in big trouble. Christian Barmore could be in big trouble. And head coach Mike Vrabel just wants to focus on football. The Dallas Cowboys released Trevon Diggs. The reports say it was about Diggs not wanting to travel home with the team during Christmas break. Hmm. Is that the whole story? Now he’s in Green Bay. Tatsuya Imai is headed to the Houston Astros. One of the best free agents on the market is coming from Japan. But, what happened to the giant multi-year deals Imai and Murakami were supposed to get? Anthony Rendon’s time with the Los Angeles Angels is over. That’s it. Rendon agreed to a settlement with the Angels that will see his full salary for the season differed. Review: Pluribus. NPPOD.

Today’s word of the day is ‘savior’ as in the NFL gets a dream scenario for Week 18 as in Steelers as in Ravens as in Panthers as in Buccaneers as in Seahawks as in 49ers! Wow. The AFC North is up for grabs. The NFC South is up for grabs. The No. 1 seed and the NFC West is up for grabs. And we cannot forget the losers all playing for the No. 1 pick in the NFL Draft! Let’s start with the Steelers and DK Metcalf. Saturday is locked up with two great games next weekend. That NFC South clash matters, but the Falcons could have a major say. What about the NFC West? The NFL could have to get through San Francisco to claim a title. Are you interested in the No. 1 pick? We’ve got a five team battle! What’s going on with the Raiders and Maxx Crosby? Charles Barkley has a big issue with the NFL. He is sick of them playing on Christmas, and he made it known. Review: Jay Kelly. NPPOD. Someone explain to me what is going on with college basketball. We thought college football would be bad, but CBB is even worse! G League players going to school. European pro players going to school. What about players in the NBA going back to school? Giannis has been going off. He returned to the Bucks and he had some words after the win over the Bulls. Let me explain what is happening with technology and MLB. Major League Baseball will be centralizing, and controlling, certain parts of technology in the minor leagues. It’s the end of the year. You know what that means. Let’s go over everything that happened this past year, and what will happen in the new year.

Today’s word of the day is ‘null and void’ as in DK Metcalf as in the NFL as in Steelers as in Lions as in suspension. The NFL handed down a two game suspension for what Metcalf did in grabbing a fan during the Steelers game on Sunday. This could be very costly for Metcalf as his guarantees could now be voided. Uh oh. Draymond Green stormed off the bench and into the locker room after an argument with Steve Kerr mid-game! Never seen that before. Ridiculous. The Kansas City Chiefs are heading to Kansas! Yes, they are leaving Missouri! How could that happen? Review: Castaway. NPPOD. The NBA is trying to figure out ways to have relationships with gambling but make the game safer. Injury reporting. Prop bets. Tanking. And we end the week with a Coca Tuesday. I had to ask him about his Mets, what the Ravens are doing with John Harbaugh, and the world of college football.

Today’s word of the day is ‘motormouth’ as in Pittsburgh as in Detroit as in Steelers as in Lions as in DK Metcalf as in fan. DK Metcalf grabbed a fan and looked to throw a punch at that fan during the Steelers win over the Lions. And nothing happened during the game because the NFL said no flag was thrown? WHAT? Let’s discuss this event and how wrong it was by the fan, by Metcalf and by the NFL. The Miami Dolphins will not bring Tua back next year. The Miami Dolphins will bring Mike McDaniel back next year? WHY!? The Los Angeles Dodgers have broken another record. This time it’s the size of their luxury tax bill. Awesome! Review: Sean Combs: The Reckoning. NPPOD. Murakami is headed to the Chicago… White Sox? And not on the giant deal everyone thought? Hmmm. The St. Louis Cardinals continue its teardown. The case between the family of Tyler Skaggs and the Los Angeles Angels is over. A settlement was reached while the jury was deliberating. Let’s discuss why a settlement was reached and what this means for the Angels. Anthony Joshua crushed Jake Paul. Paul should never have been in the ring. The fight was an embarrassment. Paul is a marketing genius, but this was just bad. The RSN model collapse is at the door. Let me explain what is happening and the future of the local broadcasts across sports. WNBA could face a lockout. The WNBPA could be striking. Scott Boras is funny. That’s it. Padres bring back Michael King.

Today’s word of the day is ‘convicted’ as in Mike McDaniel as in Tua Tagovailoa as in Quinn Ewers as in Zach Wilson as in those Miami Dolphins. Tua has been benched. The $50 million man. Stephen Ross has decisions to make, and each is so costly it blows my mind! NPPOD. The Chicago Bears of Indiana? It could happen! That’s what Bears CEO Kevin Warren wants everyone to believe. What happened to the Arlington site? The New York Mets have signed another Yankees castaway. This time it’s Luke Weaver. That means all three Yankees closers from the past three seasons are now on the Mets. Review: Jackie Brown. The Academy Awards are headed to YouTube!? What!? It’s another Coca Thursday! We talk Fenway Sports Group, scoring changes in sports, hanging banners, the Clippers, and Puka Nakua!

Today’s word of the day is ‘banner’ as in Knicks as in Spurs as in NBA Cup as in Las Vegas. What a game. What a cup! The New York Knicks! Does the NBA Cup matter though? The players played hard. Teams wanted to win. Do the fans care? Should the fans care? Expansion could be coming to the NBA. Will Seattle and Las Vegas get a team? Will another city get a team? Will there be no expansion because the owners don’t want to split the pie? Warriors owner emailed a fan. Not always an issue. But sometime it can be right after a loss. The Miami Dolphins are exactly the franchise everyone thinks they are. Poorly run. Poorly managed. Poorly played. And Tua Tagovailoa is a major part of the current problem, but so is Mike McDaniel and Stephen Ross. Review: If I Had Legs, I’d Kick You. NPPOD. What is the update on the trial in the Tyler Skaggs case? The Angels v. Skaggs family is in the hands of the jury now. It’s a So You Wanna Talk to Samson Wednesday! Someone asked me about my views on Trump and his latest comments about Rob Reiner following the murder of Reiner and his wife Michelle. Someone asked about a tweet I sent to Jim Bowden. It was about fandom. Let me explain. How does scheduling work in MLB? Is Major League Baseball set teams up to lose later in the year by having long road trips? What advice would you give to Ken Babby, the new CEO of the Rays? Let’s talk some more FIFA. The ticket prices are sky high, and now FIFA has a plan. A plan to fool you all!
