Read MoreThe Yamamoto Game: Dodgers take 2-0 series lead over the Brewers! ALCS Game 3 coming up!
Today’s word of the day is ‘anniversary’ as in the six year anniversary of Nothing Personal with David Samson. Thank you to all who listen, watch, support what we do here. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. The Los Angeles Dodgers are as good as we all thought. The Brewers haven’t been able to do a thing. Yamamoto pitched a complete game in Game 2. Blake Snell went 8 innings in Game 1. The bats are awake for LA, but the Brewers can’t even get a runner in scoring position. The Mariners head back to Seattle up 2-0 against the Blue Jays. The Mariners big dogs are being big dogs. The Blue Jays big dogs have disappeared. NPPOD. Review: John Candy – I Like Me. Mike Shildt has resigned as the manager of the Padres. It’s over after two seasons. The Padres have been a World Series contender for years now and have yet to make it there. The Tennessee Titans are firing everyone, every year. Brian Callahan gone in his second season. Now onto the 3rd head coach in 4 years. The team is onto its 3rd GM in 4 years. It’s a So You Wanna Talk to Samson Wednesday! Let’s get things going! When a player like Alex Bregman or Pete Alonso opt-out of their deals, do there current teams get the first bid or first meeting? Does it change if it’s not a Scott Boras client? Who picks the camera angles during playoff games? Why not show Judge making throws? Why is the Brewers camera angle different? Let’s talk about Cleveland. The Browns. The Cavaliers. So much is happening there.

Read MoreMariners take Game 1 against the Blue Jays on the road! Jets and Dolphins dysfunction at its finest
Today’s word of the day is ‘final four’ as in the Mariners as in the Blue Jays as in Seattle as in Toronto as in the ALCS! The Mariners took the first game 3-1 behind great pitching and the big players making big moments. Cal Raleigh homered. Jorge Polanco picked up two RBI. The Blue Jays couldn’t hit. Long series though! The Dodgers are going with Blake Snell and then Yoshinobu Yamamoto in Game 2. Where is Ohtani? Well, the Dodgers have a plan for that. What about the Brewers? An opener? Let’s go back to that Phillies loss. A rushed errant throw by Orion Kerkering was it. A mental mistake for the ages. What are the Cubs going to do with Kyle Tucker? Is he a longterm Cub? Is he leaving? Review: Play Dirty. It looks like Albert Pujols is likely to become the next manager of the Los Angeles Angels. Welp. NPPOD. The New York Jets went to London and played one of the worst football games we’ve ever seen. Justin Fields was sacked 9 times in the loss to the Broncos. The Jets had negative 10 pass yards. First-year head coach Aaron Glenn was pretty angry when questioned about who the team’s QB is moving forward. The Dolphins are still in an awful spot. Mike McDaniel has to go. He just does. Tua called out his teammates. They keep losing in terrible ways. The season is gone. Brian Daboll is going to get fined. He went into the blue tent and yelled at the team doctor because Jaxon Dart was getting check for a concussion. James Franklin is finally gone. 12 years and no major wins to show for it. But he’s not leaving empty handed. He gets a $50 million buyout. The NFL just keeps losing lawsuits. John Gruden. Brian Flores. Both had major victories in court. Stu Sternberg is paying millions of dollars to his former employees. He sold the Rays and decided to give all 500+ full-time employees bonuses as he leaves.

Read MoreBlue Jays headed to first ALCS since 2016! Yankees eliminated at home!
Today’s word of the day is ‘inferior’ as in the Yankees as in the Blue Jays as in the ALDS as in the ALCS as in the AL East. The Blue Jays eliminated the Yankees at Yankee Stadium last night. The Yankees high-powered offense was nowhere to be found. Vladimir Guerrero Jr had himself a series. Aaron Judge had himself a series. And the Yankees still lost. The Tigers beat the Mariners. Series extended. The bats woke up. And now they head to Seattle with Tarik Skubal on the mound. The Chicago Cubs got a win. 4 runs in the first. And that was it. What about the Phillies? Welcome to the series Kyle Schwarber. Thank you for showing up! Review: Coda. Let’s bring Coca in. NPPOD. What is going on with Giannis? Is he staying? Is he going? It’s Coca Friday…. On a Thursday!

Read MoreAaron Judge has his playoff moment in Yankees 9-6 comeback win! Seattle one win away from ALCS!
Today’s word of the day is ‘interview’ as in Aaron Boone as in the Yankees as in the Blue Jays as in comeback win! Let’s start by talking about the interview Boone did mid-game. How do you feel about these? Aaron Judge finally had his moment. What a monster home run by him when the team looked to be dead. The Blue Jays were hot to start, but that Judge moment may loom big in this series. Cal Raleigh HR. Eugenio Suarez HR. And the Mariners take a 2-1 lead vs the Tigers. Jerry Jones got fined $250K for giving the middle finger. Excuse me? That’s all he did? The Arizona Cardinals fined head coach Jonathan Gannon $100K for slapping Emari Demercado in the chest during Sunday’s loss to the Titans. $100K!?!? Review: It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley. The Rays new ownership group met the media yesterday. The team wants a new stadium by 2029. The team won’t comment on payroll. The team wants to win the big one. It’s a So You Wanna Talk to Samson Wednesday! But, we forgot to give the Nothing Personal Pick of the Day in the first hour… so here we go! What do you think of more teams being added to the playoffs? Does it devalue the regular season? What are players doing that don’t make the postseason roster? What is going on behind the scenes of the Tigers, Mariners, and MLB to determine a rain delay will happen? We always hear about teams and revenue… talk to us about profits. What would LeBron get paid for Decision 2.0? Were you surprised by it?

Read MoreDodgers hang on to take 2-0 series lead over the Phillies! ALDS Game 3 previews!
Today’s word of the day is ‘wheel’ as in the Dodgers as in the Phillies as in Mookie Betts as in Freddie Freeman as in Nick Castellanos. What am I talking about? Well, the biggest play in the Dodgers win yesterday when the Dodgers ran a wheel play where Muncy threw to Betts at 3rd to get the runner out on a bunt. Unreal! The Brewers took a 2-0 series lead against the Cubs. Crazy! The Cubs jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the top of the first and the Brewers matched it in the bottom of the first! Vaughn 3-run shot. A Jackson Chourio 3-run shot. And the Cubs are on the brink. Let’s preview the ALDS today. We have the Tigers/Mariners Game 3 today. Series is tied 1-1. The Yankees and Blue Jays will play tonight too. The Yankees could be eliminated. And then. Review: Caught Stealing. It is not going great at North Carolina for Bill Belichick. It’s a mess! NPPOD. Let me revisit something I talked about in the first hour. Adam Silver had to respond to so many things happening right now in the NBA and the WNBA. Aspiration. The WNBA CBA negotiations. Kawhi Leonard. Cathy Engelbert. The All-Star Game. Conor McDavid re-signed with the Edmonton Oilers. And he shocked everyone by taking far less money to do so. He was set to be a free agent after next season, but signed a 2-year extension for $25 million. Not per year. Total! LeBron James is having another Decision. Nice. Can’t wait. Is it an ad deal? We have another lawsuit in Cleveland. That’s what the new Browns stadium has become. UEFA is mad. But not mad enough that it stopped La Liga teams from playing in America.

The Blue Jays crushed the Yankees in Game 2. Vlad Guerrero Jr. is having a series to remember. The Yankees pitchers are having a series to forget. The Mariners were able to tie up the series by getting the win through Tarik Skubal. Wow. Good for them. The Tigers were able to steal Game 1. The Tigers have found a way to comeback late, but can they keep that up? The Brewers crushed the Cubs in Game 1. A 9-3 after putting up six runs in the first inning. Do you think the Brewers were ready for that game? The Phillies blew it in Game 1 agains the Dodgers. Ohtani had a great start on the mound, not great at the plate. Roki Sasaki is back and he’s throwing 100! Review: Bad Shabbos. The Red Sox president and CEO Sam Kennedy spoke about the future of MLB media. He’s a big fan of the centralized TV rights deal. What is going on with Perry Minasian and the Angels? Disaster. Just a disaster. Let’s talk some football! This story with Mark Sanchez is so wild and crazy, it’s hard to believe it’s even true. I cannot believe it. We talk about the Dolphins and how Mike McDaniel needs to go. WE talk about fumbling running into the end zone. We talk about the Eagles problems. And then we get Coca losing his mind over the Ravens and Mets! NPPOD. What’s going on with college football now? Well it looks like schools have fully given up on the NIL Clearinghouse. Great!

Schlittler pitched one of the best elimination games in the history of the sport. 8 innings. 12 strikeouts. No runs. The Yankees blanked the Red Sox to advance! The Padres and Cubs game was a wild! ABS needs to get here now! The Padres team lost its mind after the game for a blown called strike that was a ball. The Tigers eliminated the Guardians!

Read MoreMLB Wild Card: Yanks tie up series with Red Sox! Guardians rally late! Padres blank Cubs!
Today’s word of the day is ‘statistics’ as in numbers as in facts as in predictions as in MLB as in baseball as in Wild Card. Let’s take a look at where these series stand. Three elimination games. The Dodgers swept the Reds. Baseball! We start with the Yankees and Red Sox. The Yankees took Game 2, but the biggest play happened when the 3rd base coach for the Red Sox held up a runner when he had a very easy chance to score. Why? The Guardians tied up the series with the Tigers. Another elimination game tonight! The Padres bullpen was lights out. Mason Miller… wow! 104.5 mph! Another elimination game! The Dodgers swept the Reds. This series could have been an email. Review: Boyhood. NPPOD. Brian Snitker stepped down as manager of the Braves. His contract was up and he decided it’s time. Now what for the Braves? A terrible season, but a great roster.
The Cleveland Browns are going with Dillon Garbiel in London! Not Shedeur Sanders. Not Joe Flacco. So much noise around this team. It’s ridiculous! It is always a mess with this team! The Colorado Rockies have fired its GM. One of the worst seasons of all time. Bill Schmidt has been there since 1999, GM since 2021. Three straight 100-game losing seasons. 119 losses this year. Terrible farm system. Bruce Bochy will not be the Giants manger. Not happening said Buster Posey. What is going on with the Cardinals? What happened to the winning? Chaim Bloom is trying to change it. Electronic Arts is being acquired for $55 billion… by the Saudi Public Investment Fund. Excuse me? The Big Ten is about to get into bed with private equity. A $2 billion plan? What does that mean for the future of that conference?

Read MoreMLB Wild Card: Chapman escapes Yanks bases loaded in 9th! Skubal fans 14! Ohtani goes yard TWICE!
Today’s word of the day is ‘brink’ as in brink of elimination as in the Wild Card as in the postseason. The Yankees blew it at home. They had a chance at the end and were unable to score with bases loaded and no outs! Tarik Skubal is the best. What a start for the Tigers. How can anyone score multiple against him? The Dodgers crushed the Reds. Who didn’t see that coming? Cubs beat the Padres. The Padres could not buy a hit after the first few innings. Napheesa Collier went off on the WNBA commissioner. Never seen anything like it. Wow. Review: Aka Charlie Sheen. Ron Washington is out in LA. No longer the Angels manager. This will be the 5th manager they’ll need to hire in past seven years. No postseason again. Get it, Arte! NPPOD. It’s a So You Wanna Talk to Samson Wednesday! You call in or write in, and I answer your questions! We start things off with the Tampa Bay Rays. A new owner is in town. Stu Sternberg is old news. Why is your nickname Sparky? The Cleveland Guardians? What are they doing? That’s what a caller wanted to know. IS ABS is a prelude to the robot umpire down there road? Why isn’t Cal Raleigh the MVP favorite? Who killed the Montreal Expos? Would you have Kershaw on the postseason roster moving forward?

Reds vs Dodgers!? Tigers vs Guardians!? Let’s go! And let me give you my predictions! Review: We Were Liars. A lot of manager moves have happened. Yesterday the Giants got rid of Bob Melvin after two seasons. Buster Posey wants his own guy in there. The Rangers got rid of Bruce Bochy. Could he land back in San Francisco? The Twins moved on from Rocco Baldelli after another disappointing season. Let’s dive back into this Kawhi Leonard story. Pablo Torre continues to uncover even more details from this Steve Ballmer, Aspiration, Clippers, Kawhi story. It never seems to end! But now Kawhi had to answer some media questions. The Clippers weren’t done yet. A new patch deal with Rwanda? Huh? Steve Cohen finally tweeted. What a guy. What an owner. Then we had David Stearns talk about the Mets season. And sorry Mets fans, but Carlos Mendoza is coming back. Dolphins got a win. But, they lost Tyreek Hill, for likely a long time. Devastating injury. NPPOD. LeBron James met with media yesterday.

Read MoreWe are back! MLB regular season ends with Mets and Astros OUT! Postseason field is set!
Today’s word of the day is ‘love’ as in family. This is a tough one. We’ve been gone for two weeks. Let me explain where I was. The Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers game ended in a tie. Why are there ties? We had the highest scoring one of all-time. Dallas has the number 1 offense and last ranked defense. Fun! Jerry Jones must love this. Let’s talk about the turf at MetLife again. Another year, another game, another injury. Malik Nabers is done for the season with a torn ACL. Wow. A player on the Steelers was jumped and robbed in Ireland during the NFL’s international game weekend. What?The Mets are not in the playoffs. $391 million. No postseason. All they need was a win on Sunday vs the Marlins and they were shutout. 3rd time they’ve been eliminated by the Marlins on the final day of the season. Now let’s talk about the Astros. Houston has a problem for the first time in years. They missed the postseason. The Toronto Blue Jays have won the AL East. Tied with the New York Yankees, but the tiebreaker got the win. First title since 2015! Alex Cora talked after the Red Sox made the postseason. He said no one believed in them. Hmm. The Guardians did it. They won the AL Central. How? 15.5 games back! Sorry, Detroit! Let’s go over my preseason predictions in baseball. Aaron Judge is the MVP.
