Today’s word of the day is ‘Boras’d’ as in Boras Corp. as in Scott Boras as in Jeremy Pena as in Alex Bregman. It’s that time again. Pena wants a new deal. Bregman wants a new deal. And now Boras will have his moment again. A White Sox fan has been ban from all MLB ballparks after taunting Ketel Marte. Was this the right reaction from the league? Too much? The NBA Draft round 1 happened last night! Cooper Flagg could be the billion dollar man? Ace Bailey got draft by the Jazz after saying no to the Jazz? The Nets used all 5 picks! Review: Animal House. The All-Star Game is headed to Atlanta and Ronald Acuna is in the Home Run Derby! Young stars are making a lot of mistakes in baseball. Why is that? NPPOD. Public financing is not going to end. Everyone said that Kansas City was the end when they voted down those new stadium proposals. Nope. Here we go again! The Cleveland Browns are about to get $600 million to build a new stadium! And this is a good one! The Washington Commanders are still trying to get a new stadium. And now we have lawmakers in DC that want to talk and talk and talk! Logan Morrison joins the show! We talk baseball, heckling and more! Premiere Lacrosse League signed a new deal with ESPN. This one is an interesting one because ESPN has taken a small stake in the league. Jacob deGrom almost pitched a perfect game yesterday. Would the team ever have taken him out? Should they have protected him if it came to it or just let him fire it off?

Today’s word of the day is ‘apron’ as in luxury tax as in salary cap as in penalties as in the NBA as in MLB. What are we talking about!? The Boston Celtics have been blowing it all up… kinda. Jrue Holiday is gone. Kristaps Porzingis is gone. Hundreds of millions have been saved in penalties. The NBA Draft is here! The first round is on Wednesday. Second round on Thursday. Cooper Flagg is an easy number one. Then things get interesting! The Brooklyn Nets have the most first round picks ever! Aaron Rodgers says he’s only there for one year. That’s it.

What’s the first few days of being an owner going to look like for Alex Rodriguez and Marc Lore. Someone asked me if there’s any evidence that it’s better for stadiums to sell cheaper hot dogs and beer. Interesting. Billboards of other players over my players? Yes I would!

Today’s word of the day is ‘predatory’ as in loans as in money as in Fernando Tatis Jr as in Big League Advance. What are we talking here? Well a company is being sued by Tatis Jr because of a contract he signed when he was a teen. Why is he doing this now? Wander Franco update. The disgraced Rays star is in court in the Dominican Republic facing charges of sexual abuse against a minor. Just a very gross case. And on Thursday we’ll get a ruling. Review: Deep Cover. The Athletics held the groundbreaking ceremony in Las Vegas yesterday. What a special day. NPPOD. The NBA ratings came out for Game 7. Monster numbers. Mike Berland joins the show! He’s an author and political pollster! He has worked with the Dixie Chicks, he’s worked with Michael Bloomberg, he’s worked with Hilary Clinton. The Mets are in a bad place right now. Losing games. Losing division leads. Pitchers can’t pitch. Hitters can’t hit. All around bad. The WNBA players are trying to make a statement. The CBA is ending. Negotiations are here. The Reds DFA’d a player they just gave big money to. Not ideal. But what the team’s president said is interesting.

Today’s word of the day is ‘tonnerre’ as in Thunder as in Shai as in Sam Presti as in the Oklahoma City Thunder are your NBA champions! What a sad start to the game with Tyrese Haliburton going down. He’s now done for all of next season. The Thunder are primed to be great for a few more years too! Kevin Durant has been traded to the Houston Rockets! Wow. The Suns are still in some trouble. The Rockets now have a chance in the Western Conference. Review: The Amateur. The US has bombed Iran. NPPOD. The Los Angeles Dodgers announced a $1 million pledge to the city of Los Angeles area services for immigration. They were pressured to do something, anything, and they responded. Shohei Ohtani continues to take rehab starts for the Dodgers at the big league level. 1 inning again. But he brought his bat to the game! My response to Andrew McCutchen. We now know another bidder for the Rays. Trip Miller has gone public saying he wants the team. Uh oh. Cal Raleigh continues to destroy baseballs. He’s a monster! Let’s give him some flowers!

Today’s word of the day is ‘madonna’ as in Like A Virgin as in OKC Thunder as in the Indian Pacers as in Game 7. It’s a GAME 7! The Pacers crushed the Thunder in Game 6. The Thunder kept turning the ball over. The Thunder couldn’t shoot. The Pacers looked like the better team. The Lakers have been sold.

Today’s word of the day is ‘sunrise’ as in Florida as in Panthers as in South Florida as in back-to-back as in the NHL as in the Stanley Cup! The Panthers did it! How have they been so successful? What a franchise. Brad Marchand was brilliant. Sam Reinhart scored 4 goals! Sam Bennett won the Conn Smythe. And Connor McDavid goes home without the Cup again. Rafael Devers is ready to play everywhere for the Giants. Can you believe it? Review: MobLand. The Phillies did something that not many would do, they benched a player during a games played streak. Nick Castellanos was benched. NPPOD. Giving you a pick of the Thunder and Pacers game. The big story is will Tyrese Haliburton play? The Yankees are broken right now. Can’t score runs. Judge is slumping. Yuck! So You Wanna Talk to Samson!? It’s Wednesday! Someone asked me if I was MLB Commissioner… how would I grow the game? Would the NBA ever shorten the the season? Is it boring? Is it too long? Someone asked me about spring training games and dealing with disgruntled fans during spring training. Hmm. Someone asked me for forgiveness for puking on my golf bag. What? What was my favorite thing to do as a team president? What were the least favorite jobs I had to do? Should the Tigers bump Tarik Skubal to Thursday so fans get to see a Cy Young showdown between he and Paul Skenes? Bad free agents. The Angels are not the only team!

Today’s word of the day is ‘alignment’ as in Red Sox as in Rafael Devers as in Sam Kennedy as in Craig Breslow. That was the buzz word. What did Boston’s front office have to say? The usual! Another big surprise was how David Ortiz took to the media to defend the Red Sox. Never go against the family! The Okalhaom City Thunder have finally taken a series lead! Up 3-2 now after Jalen Williams and SGA had themselves a game. Tyrese Haliburton re-injured his calf and was held without a field goal! Review Rolling Along. Shohei Ohtani has returned for the Dodgers. He pitched 1 inning. That’s it. But he had the juice! NPPOD. Ippei Mizuhara is on his way to prison. The day Ohtani gets his start. LOL. Gage Wood threw a no-hitter in the College World Series yesterday! 19 strikeouts! Katie Phang joins the show! We break down ICE raids, protests, Trump, and more! Giancarlo Stanton is back for the Yankees, and they need him. The team can’t score right now. Five straight games of just poor offense. Four straight losses. What’s going on with the Commanders? Is the deal done or not? Attendance! MLB attendance is up right now! Biggest Father’s Day weekend in a long, long time! What about the Club World Cup? Why is the attendance all over the place? Is it the venue choice or a bigger issue?

Today’s word of the day is ‘fait accompli’ as in Rafael Devers as in the Boston Red Sox as in the San Francisco Giants as in traded. How did we get here? Who is to blame for this falling out? Craig Breslow? John Henry? Red Sox fans are furious about this — they think it’s Mookie Betts all over again. The Florida Panthers are a win away from a repeat! Brad Marchand is playing like a man possessed! Sam Bennett keeps scoring! What is going on with the NBA Finals? Everyone seems to be mad about something. There have been excellent games on the court, but the stories have been off the court. Review: Holy Cow. NPPOD. We have two stories about the Dodgers right now. Shohei Ohtani is back to pitching. He’ll be on the mound tonight. First time in almost 2 years he’ll pitch in an MLB game. The other is about Clayton Kershaw. I want to start hour 2 talking about how my weekend went. I went back to camp. What happened in Minnesota this weekend was a disgrace. What is wrong with this country? We continue to just not get it. What’s going on with the Washington Nationals? Falling apart and the manager just blamed the players. That’s it. Said it’s not on the coaches. Hmm. Are the baseballs different in MLB this year? Yes, but no one inside baseball will acknowledge it. Andrew McCutchen will! Desmond Bane was traded for a monster return to the Orlando Magic. It is over for Memphis. The Western Conference passed them by. Now the Magic have a real shot to do something in the East.

Today’s word of the day is ‘80.5’ as in percentage as in Pacers as in Thunder as in the NBA finals. The Pacers took Game 3 and now have an 80.5% chance to win the series according to past results. Tyrese Haliburton did it again. Another late run by the Pacers and the Thunder couldn’t stop it. Now just 2 games away from a title! What are the Knicks doing? The Knicks have asked 5 different teams to speak with its head coach and they all said no! What was the plan here? Kevin Durant wants out of Phoenix. What? Another trade!? Another team? Oh, what the Suns could have been. Review: Groundhog Day. The Athletic released its poll about Major League Baseball. Who did the players vote on the worst organizations? It’s not surprising! NPPOD. What is going on in Kansas City? Both of them! The Royals and the Chiefs want stadium money and who is going to pay? ICE and Border Patrol is the big thing in our country right now. With the FIFA Club World Cup being here, with the World Cup next year, things are scary for some. Let’s discuss this impact on sports, and the country. FIFA is basically giving away tickets to the opening game in Miami. The House Settlement has rocked the college world. We knew this would happen. Everyone knew this would happen. And the lawsuits are here. I want to spend some time about business and sports and movies, and when you know things are going bad. What if you don’t have the power to change those things?

Today’s word of the day is ‘simulated’ as in simulated games as in Shohei Ohtani as in pitching as in Dodgers as in rehab assignments as in bullpen sessions. Let’s cover everything about injuries and returns to play. We start with the Dodgers and their trio of big name arms: Ohtani, Snell, Glasnow. Let’s break down the rest of the Dodgers pitchers now, and some other big names in the league. Sean Manaea and Giancarlo Stanton had rehab assignments last night. Review: Sinners. The Phillies are not doing great right now. Injuries happen. But the bullpen isn’t good. The team is struggling. NPPOD. So You Wanna Talk to Samson time! It’s the 2nd hour! Our first question is about estate planning and why teams sell for these purposes. Hmm. Someone asked me about the MLB Draft. Will it ever be reformed? Why are there separate drafts for international players? Will there ever just be one draft? Someone asked me about the biggest fight or argument I ever saw in a clubhouse. This should be good. What do you think about Skener Wieners? Huh!? Someone asked me about the new deal between MLB and Jomboy Media. How do you feel about it? Should MLB be doing this? Someone asked me about the ABS system and the impact it will have on umpires, players, fans, and the league!
