We have a follow-up on our Thoughts on the NFL and St. Louis episode scheduled for release in January, just days before the St. Louis v. NFL lawsuit was scheduled to go to trial. Today, the two parties settled the lawsuit for $790 million (insert 7-9 joke here). Mike has thoughts on this that need to be shared right away, hence this bonus episode. He also has recommendations of NFL teams to support and which ones to avoid (and a few businesses as well).
KMOX Sports Editor Tom Ackerman speaks with attorney Daniel Wallach who informs us on the St. Louis v. NFL, Kroenke relocation lawsuit. Will it lead to an expansion team for St. Louis? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today's word of the day is ‘deep throat' as in Watergate as in sources source sources as in on Thursday morning was a funny day. Mets owner Steve Cohen accused us of being a source in a story in the New York Post. LOL. We don't do sources. If we say it, we put our name on it. (7:20) So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me about the lawsuit agains the NFL and Stan Kroenke a big deal. Could Roger Goodell be grilled by questions in open court? Let me explain. (17:15) Shohei Ohtani has arm soreness. Shohei Ohtani needs to stop pitching. Shohei Ohtani is an electric player, but he needs to be protected. (24:00) Review: The Voyeurs. (28:25) Aly Raisman, Simone Biles, McKayla Maroney, Maggie Nichols all spoke on Capitol Hill about how disturbing the treatment was from the FBI. The FBI let these women down. The US Olympic Committee let these women down. These people should be in jail for how much they let these women down. (33:35) NPPOD (37:30) John Wall is still owed $91M over the next two seasons. The Houston Rockets are going to trade him. They said it, not me. Why do front offices always spin it like they're helping the player? (44:20) Feel good story time: Christian Yelich bought 10,000 tickets for fans to attend a Milwaukee Brewers game. There still are good people in sports and Yelich is one of them.
