Your boy is playing injured as I’m battling a hoarse voice that came out of nowhere, but that won’t stop me from sharing my thoughts and opinions on ALL that’s taking place in sports. On deck:
(6:40) The LA Dodgers took care of business at home winning the first two games of the World Series. Now the scene shifts to New York for the next two (at least) maybe three games. Is this Fall Classic, for all intents and purposes, over? I’ll explain why that’s not the case and make a play for the Yankees to draw even in the Series for a pivotal Game 5 on Wednesday night? I’ll unpack the managing of Aaron Boone and Dave Roberts, how Aaron Judge is becoming playoff A-Rod prior to his 2009 run and how many people have watched and paid attention to the heavyweight matchup.
(29:04) We’re approaching the halfway point of the NFL season. Week 8 had some good (Jayden Daniels Hail Mary and success in DC), bad (the AFC East, and both Souths have been clinched?) and the ugly (the Jets have hit rock bottom) are the key highlights from Sunday’s action. I’ll also get on Ravens coach John Harbaugh, Tua’s return to Miami, another vicious play by the Saints defense, the Packers get out of Jacksonville alive, are the Bengals done and can the NFL upstage Election Day?
(51:14) College football in Week 9 was mostly quiet, although the big game was Texas A&M coming from behind after a big gamble changing quarterbacks. It catapulted them to a 38-23 win over LSU. Where do the Aggies stand in the college football playoff as the first announcement of the rankings will be tomorrow?
(56:12) The NBA is just about a week old with the Lakers back where they belong, 3-0 at the top of the West. Kevin Durant reaches a lofty milestone, with another one forthcoming. Steph Curry suffered an ankle sprain which could keep him out of the lineup for the foreseeable future.
(59:46) Break up the Jets! Not the football team. The hockey team as they are 8-0 to begin the season. How long will this streak last? Same could be said about the San Jose Sharks who haven’t won as of yet. Teams that have recovered from slow starts are the Avalanche, Predators and Hurricanes. The Rangers sign their 2020 #1 overall pick, Alexis Lafreniere to a seven year deal as he’s slowly becoming one of the top players in the league.
(1:03:48) There was a UFC fight on Saturday night where Ilia Topuria surprisingly KO’s Max Holloway in the third round, the first time that’s happened to Holloway. Could a rematch be in the works?
