Today’s word of the day is ’fat, lazy ass’ as in baseball as in Pete Rose as in Donald Trump as in Rob Manfred. That’s right, President Trump is going to pardon Pete Rose. Okay? For? Who knows! But he wants Rose to be in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Sure? What is happening here? Spring Training updates! We are two weeks away from the first regular season games! Ohtani homered. What a weekend I had. I spent some time with Saquon Barkley over the weekend and he’s one of the nicest athletes of all time! We spoke about the Deebo Samuel trade to the Commanders! Go all-in with a rookie QB! Oscars recap time! Hard Knocks is headed to college! Bill Belichick and North Carolina are the new targets because no NFL team wants to do it! Matthew Stafford is going back to the Rams. He’s not a Raider. He’s not a Giant. So now who are the Giants going to after? Aaron Rodgers!? NPPOD

Today’s word of the day is ’Ides of March’ as in March as in Spring Training as in MLB as in baseball as in here we go. Injuries? Debuts? Caution? Precautions? What is the front office looking at? New arm angles and new batting stances! We have a bunch of players trying out new positions. Jasson Dominguez. Alex Bregman. Jose Altuve. When does a team nix that change? So You Wanna Talk to Samson!? Someone asked me about PENN Entertainment and ESPN Bet and Draftkings and FanDuel. What do they want to know? NPPOD. Review: Oscar Ballot. Travis Kelce is back. Year 13. Everyone thought the Chiefs would win the Super Bowl and he’d ride off into the sunset. Didn’t win. Didn’t happen. We have some rule changes coming to the NFL. Good bye, chain gang! We’ve got technology!

Today’s word of the day is ’humans’ as in robots as in umpires as in pitchers as in baseball as in MLB. What am I talking about? The new automated balls-strikes system in baseball is here in Spring Training. And Max Scherzer hates it. FOX did the anti-ESPN this week. FOX announced its plan for 2025. And it’s packed with big games and big moments. Spring Training is here and some legends have returned. Sammy Sosa is with the Cubs! Review: The Seed of the Sacred Fig. Today is my birthday! NPPOD. The GM for the Browns still says that Myles Garrett is not being traded. Not taking calls. Not moving him. Hmm.

Today’s word of the day is ’Spring Pain-ing’ as in Spring Training as in pain as in injuries as in the Mets as in the Yankees as in every team. This is the time of year. Players show up. Players get hurt. Teams scramble. Lovely! Giancarlo Stanton is dealing with a double elbow problem. WOOF! But on the bright side they are now allowing beards! Yay! So You Wanna Talk to Samson!? Someone asked me about Tony Clark’s comments to Rob Manfred about a lockout in baseball. Hmmmmm. Review: Nickel Boys. Is it the end of the Tush Push? The talk is back. The Packers want it gone. The Eagles run it to great success. NPPOD. The Sixers are falling apart again. Joel Embiid might be done. His knees are cooked. The Sixers keep losing. The Big 3 didn’t work. Suns owner Mat Ishbia’s brother, Justin, has moved on from the Minnesota Twins. Uh oh.

Today’s word of the day is ’prudent’ as in ESPN as in MLB as in Rob Manfred as in TV as in broadcast rights as in $550 million. Here we go. It looks like ESPN and MLB are headed for a divorce and we’ve got issues. Where will MLB games be? Will they get more money from somewhere else? Is this the end of baseball on cable? IS this going to impact player salaries? Our dear friend Scott Boras is back. He is on a mission to make MLB ownership mad. He called teams out for poor spending. He called the league out for TV rights deals. Review: SAG Awards. Mets owner Steve Cohen gave a warning about his spending. Said it isn’t going to happen for long. He can do it, but he’s losing money. Most owners are! The NHL had a hit with the 4 Nations Cup. Canada got the win. The NHL got a win. But, what now? NPPOD.

We start the episode with some bonus mailbag! Someone asked me what the difference between the President and the General Manager are. What job does the President do that the General Manger can’t? Someone asked me about MLB team spending. He wants to know why teams aren’t all spending $200 million per year if they’re all making $300 million. What?

Welcome in the great Hank Azaria! Master of voices! Emmy winner! The Simpsons! Brockmire! ALONG CAME POLLY! Do you want scuba? We got it!
