I explain in this segment Can't believe the 76ers and GM Daryl Morey pulled off the trade for James Harden, but he's always loved his game from their Houston days together... And he got him for Ben Simmons, who hasn't played a minute of competitive basketball in the NBA this year... We'll see who ends up winning this trade in the next few years. I think Philly won the short term...

"Too Sense" Segment: Super Bowl Pick and NBA Early Trade Review I believe the Rams will win this game...

I hope we've seen the last of AB the football player, not the last of AB the person... I give my thoughts... "Too Sense" 2 Segment: Kirk Herbstreit is extremely hypocritical about players sitting out meaningless Bowl Games So why is it okay for Brian Kelly and Lincoln Riley to bail for big money before a big bowl game but the players can't sit out looking toward their NFL future?

One of my biggest interview yet! Right after my "Too Sense" Segment: Steph Curry is the all-time leader in 3-pointers made, I explain why he's the greatest today. There have been a lot of great "spot-up" shooters over the years in the NBA. Reggie Miller, Ray Allen, JJ Redick, Klay Thompson, Larry Bird, Kyle Korver, and the list goes on and on. Steph is the greatest out of all of them because he has nearly perfected the art of shooting as a point guard. His efficiency off the dribble is special, combined with his catch and shoot ability is amazing to me. I explain in my opening monologue today... Conversation: - Rob Parker - Fox Sports Radio, Co-Host of "The Odd Couple" with Chris Broussard For those that are familiar with the sports media world, this is a huge deal for me to have Rob on the podcast. You've seen him on Undisputed and First Take over the years and every sports major sports network. My thanks to Rob for being on the show! We dive right into the MLB Lockout and also pending free agency moves in baseball. Why Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens should be in the Hall of Fame is his opinion. The reason why Kevin Durant and Giannis are ahead of Steph for greatest player right now. And why Rob calls Steph Curry, the "G.M.O.A.T" - "Greatest Mirage Of All Time" HAHAHA - He explains that and much more in this episode of the Too Tall Sports Podcast...

Can't believe this is Episode #75 of the Too Tall Sports Podcast... Wow, I want to thank everyone for taking this journey with me over the past year and a half... Cheers to you all for listening and here's to #100 before we know it! "Too Sense" on MLB finally paying for Minor League Housing: I have a lot of energy today after the Dodgers came back and won the other night but we still have more baseball to play... My big topic today is the fact the the always slow moving, Major League Baseball, has decided to start paying for housing accommodations for minor leaguers while in season. This is a huge move as it has become well documented that minor leaguers make less than minimum wage to play "professional baseball". For reference, most guys make less than $14,000 per year in total. They are asked to perform at a high level almost every night for 6 months and are treated like crap. This is at least a step in the right direction... Next up, better pay, food and travel perks and you might get some more high performers that mentally want to keep chasing that dream. Refer back to my episode with Jeremy Wolf, who founded More Than Baseball. Jeremy and his team formed a non profit, helping struggling minor leaguers through life. INTERVIEW: Chris Caulk + Former Walk-On Wide Receiver at USC Chris has the most indirect way of playing Division 1 football. He decided mid way through high school that he was going to give up baseball and shoot for the stars to play football in college... That dream was cut short even before he played a high school game as the knee injuries piled up. He spent a few years bouncing a round junior colleges until finally getting the call to play at USC, his dream school. Although he never played for the Trojans, he had an incredible experience there and we discuss what it was like to play for Clay Helton. We also dive into where he thinks the programs needs to go now and which quarterbacks threw the best ball... He's on his way to becoming an entertainment star, so follow his journey below. Enjoy the episode! Would love to hear your feedback too... Hit Me up!

"Too Sense" covering: Week 5 NFL Recap Chargers and Herbert are legit Browns and Odell a bad fit? Kansas City done already? Alabama and Saban lose to Texas A&M, shocking, didn't think that would be the game they get beat. Red Sox SHOCK the Rays, crazy result to that series INTERVIEW: Matt Nordby - Director of Communications at NASCAR, Former Media Relations Executive at the Pittsburgh Pirates Matt and I met at a sports media conference and I was lucky enough to have him on the Too Tall Sports Podcast today. He explains his story about growing up in Iowa, specifically Quad Cities as a kid, (I played there a few times in the minors). He played baseball at Iowa St. and made the last out at their home stadium as the baseball program was cut shortly after... Matt spent some years in minor league baseball before jumping into communications with the Pirates. After a 5 year run there, he made a huge "left turn" (pun intended) to switch sports careers over to NASCAR corporate. He has now been there for 10 years and loves it! We discuss his stories over the past decade and everything about NASCAR that the average fan doesn't know... They recently signed on to do a race at the LA Coliseum in February of 2022. Crazy!

Wait... Tim Tebow got released for not being a serviceable Tight End??? Shocker! Haha...In my "Too Sense" segment today, I explain why Tim Tebow was more of a ticket sales gimmick and distraction and less of a real "football fit". I do give him some praise for his college accomplishments, in which I concede that might be one of the best college football players ever... That's where his dominance stopped. Either way, this privilege signing by his college coach Urban Meyer, correctly ended before the season to make sure that he doesn't lose the locker-room. Interview with Chase Baker: Former NFL Defensive Lineman with the Vikings, Boise St. Alum, and one of the D-Line coaches for the Fan Controlled Football League.- We discuss his early football days and how he still got a scholarship to Boise St. after not playing his Senior year of High School- What it was like at Boise St. and the advantage of playing on the Blue Turf- His NFL experience and playing in Minnesota for the Vikings - Being able to play in the last game in the Metrodome- Coaching a new style of football for the FCF- How this exposure can help free agent football players build their tape resume for the NFL- Chase explains how involved the fans really are and how they can vote on the plays that are run in-gameFollow Chase Baker: @chasebaker91Follow Me and SUBSCRIBE, LIKE and COMMENT on  the Too Tall Sports Podcast:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOT1dawh_079qckq7OmFHAQInstagram: @tootallsportspodcastTwitter: @TooTallSportsFacebook Group: TooTallSportsPodcastApple Podcasts: Too Tall Sports PodcastSpotify: Too Tall Sports Podcasthttps://www.diamantenetwork.com/network/brettlorinPandora: https://www.pandora.com/podcast/too-tall-sports-podcast/PC:52128https://www.vegassportsadvantage.com?ref=tootallEmail: tootallsportspodcast@gmail.comhttps://linktr.ee/TooTallSportsPodcast--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a sponsor!!!Want the best sports betting picks texted directly to your phone every day?I have the answer and it's Vegas Sports Advantage.A proud sponsor of the Too Tall Sports PodcastLink Here:https://www.vegassportsadvantage.com?ref=tootall25% OFF Your favorite Sports Picks Package by using the link above or using thePROMO CODE: TOOTALL--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------25% OFF with Promo Code: TOOTALL This podcast is brought to you by Vegas Sports Advantage.

Today's "Too Sense" segment is about Dennis Schroder and the mistake he made by not taking 4 years and $84 Million from the Lakers before hitting Free Agency:- Sometimes you get bad advice or have a lack of self awareness to know your worth... Dennis Schroder, former point guard for the Lakers, turned down a huge extension during the season last year. He wanted to bet on himself and hit the market this offseason. Well, it turned out that no one was lining up for him to sign the $120 million contract that he thought he was worth... Dennis recently signed for a measly 1 year deal, worth $5.9 Million. These things happen I guess. I discuss this and also the deserving Max Extensions for Luka Doncic and Trae Young.- Lots of new video content @tootallsportspodcast on Instagram. New videos every day!Today's Interview: Seth EthertonSeth and I have a lot in common. We both went to the same high school in Orange County. We are both pitchers and both played professionally. But that's where the comparisons stop haha! Seth went on to become the, then, Pac-10 Pitcher of the Year in 1998 at USC, help them win the College World Series, and become a 1st Round Draft Pick all in the same summer!Seth played for the Angels in the big leagues right before the won the World Series in 2002.

Welcome Back to the Too Tall Sports Podcast!Today's "Too Sense" segment is all about Shohei Ohtani and how we should appreciate him more than we know... The guy is a modern day Babe Ruth... He pitches with electric stuff on the mound, and hits like a power-hitting position player. As I explain in this episode, it's hard to market a guy that isn't in the best situation possible with a mediocre franchise like the Angels. The league can't market Mike Trout to the fullest either if he only plays in the regular season... What do you think about the rise of Ohtani and how we should view him moving forward? Send me a message or email, I always love to hear feedback from my listeners.

His time came a few rounds later though.Frank played with a number of current and former big leaguers including: Miguel Rojas, Tucker Barnhart, Didi Gregorius, and Donald Lutz. He had great relationships with these guys and shares a few stories about them that are very insightful.Frank played Independent ball for a little while and wound up coming back to the Reds as a player development guy.
