Rick Stroud and Steve Versnick break down the Tampa Bay Buccaneers preseason opener in New York, where Tampa Bay held out its starters and let backup QB Jaylen Daniels take over in the 2nd half — and he delivered, going 10-for-15 for 111 yards with a rushing touchdown while engineering a pair of comeback scoring drives. The guys explain why Todd Bowles kept Baker Mayfield and the first team out of the game (joint practices with the Jets did most of the work, and that brutal MetLife Stadium turf didn't help), then spotlight the standouts: rookie safety Ayden Garnes' pick-six, corner Damarion Williams' 11-tackle night, and Elijah Roberts flashing as a run-stopper. They also flag a rocky special teams debut for new coordinator Danny Smith, give an update on Emeka Egbuka's turf toe, and preview Saturday's home game against Kansas City — the one preseason tilt with no joint practices, meaning the real starters should finally see the field. Plus, Rick and Steve dig into where things stand on a Vita Vea extension and Baker Mayfield's new contract.Then it's over to the Rays, who followed a nine-game road winning streak by dropping three straight to the Orioles at home, blowing bullpen leads in excruciating fashion all weekend. Shane McClanahan is activated tonight as Tampa Bay looks to salvage the finale and avoid the sweep before a road trip back to Baltimore. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Rick Stroud and Steve Versnick preview the Buccaneers' preseason opener against the Jets at MetLife Stadium, breaking down who's likely to play and who's held out. Expect several key veterans to sit (Baker Mayfield, Chris Godwin, and Tristan Wirfs among them), while rookies and young players trying to make a mark get extended run — first-round pick Rueben Bain Jr., backup QB Jalon Daniels, undrafted corner Ayden Garnes, edge rusher David Walker returning from a torn ACL, and running back Josh Williams. Rick shares what it meant to Garnes and Daniels to finally take the field in the NFL.Then it's mailbag time. Rick and Steve field listener questions on how long teammates will stay patient with Vita Vea's contract holdout, the Bucs' biggest weakness heading into the season (hint: it's cornerback depth), Rick's most memorable preseason game after decades on the beat (a trip to Tokyo for the 2002 American Bowl), whether the Rays are a lock to win the AL East, whether a title run helps secure stadium funding, and which Tampa Bay team — Bucs, Bolts, or Rays — is most likely to bring home the next championship.Plus a look ahead: the Rays return home from a 9-0 road trip to host the Orioles in a four-game series this weekend.

https://api.spreaker.com/v2/episodes/73881118/download.mp3 The Jets and Bucs met for a second consecutive day and things weren’t quite as testy. After several fights on day one, this session saw far fewer incidents. But who stood out? – Edge rusher David Bailey was very impressive yet again, winning several battles in the trenches and coming away with a few would-be sacks. – Cade Klubnik threw a beautiful deep ball for a 50-yard touchdown to second-year receiver Arian Smith. Some say it may have been the best pass of camp for any Jets QB. – Geno Smith went 10-17 on the day in 11-on-11s and did a better job of protecting the ball than he did yesterday when he tossed three interceptions. – Aaron Glenn revealed that cornerback Qwan’tez Stiggers is in concussion protocol. Stiggers passed out and temporarily lost consciousness yesterday. – The Jets secondary got carved up by Baker Mayfield who, at one point, led the Bucs on a 65-yard touchdown drive. – Wide receiver AD Mitchell stayed hot and scored a touchdown in 7-on-7s after getting open on a regular basis on day 1 but couldn’t do much as Geno Smith struggled with his accuracy. – While cornerback D’Angelo Ponds has been out and won’t be back next week, Aaron Glenn anticipates an increased workload next week. – Tight end Jeremy Ruckert had the catch of the day as he twisted and contorted to pull in an off-target throw early in the session. – The Jets will face the Bucs at MetLife Stadium this Friday night at 7pm, where we’ll see if there’s any carryover from a chippy two days of joint sessions.The post David Bailey Shines Again on day 2 of Joint Session With Bucs appeared first on JetNation.com - New York Jets Blog & Forum.

Art breaks down everything New York Giants as they begin training back in East Rutherford, NJ.
Buffalo's new $2.8 billion stadium is already taking heat for obstructed views, small scoreboards and a fan experience that Shaun Morash believes should embarrass the Bills. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber as they compare Buffalo's new building to MetLife Stadium and debate whether the much-maligned home of the Giants and Jets has been unfairly bashed. The conversation turns to MetLife's turf, whether NFL players should push for natural grass and Tiki's theory that modern football shoes may be contributing to Achilles injuries. Plus, callers pitch an Aqueduct stadium for the Jets, Connor Green ranks the best stadiums in sports, and one optimistic Jets fan predicts a nine-win season.
Buffalo's new $2.8 billion stadium is already drawing criticism for obstructed views and undersized scoreboards, leaving Shaun Morash wondering how the Bills could spend that much and still miss on basic fan experience. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber as they compare Buffalo's new home to MetLife Stadium and argue that MetLife may be unfairly trashed. The debate shifts to natural grass versus turf, whether NFL owners should spend whatever it takes to improve playing surfaces, and Tiki's theory that modern football shoes, not just turf, could be contributing to the rise in Achilles injuries.
The newest stadiums may cost billions, but the classics still win. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber as Connor Green ranks the Rose Bowl, Wrigley Field, Fenway Park, Lambeau Field and even the Roman Colosseum among sports' best venues, sparking a debate over why old-school stadiums still have more character than their modern replacements. The conversation turns to MetLife Stadium, American Dream and the complications of maintaining a grass field at a venue packed with concerts and other events. Then a Jets caller predicts nine wins, but Shaun pushes back on the idea that the offense is set with Geno Smith at quarterback.
The internet has gone wild with speculation after Usher’s concert Saturday night at Met Life Stadium. Videos and photos are circulating showing what some fans are saying is a clone, or a look a like, on stage instead of Usher, singing “Love In This Club”. We aren’t sure where we stand after carefully looking at the clips, but some fans are demanding their money back, saying they didn’t pay good money to see a stand in sing an Usher song. Meantime, Usher has responded by commenting on one of the posts, saying “Ya’ll are funny. Clone? You can’t clone this.” Hmmmmm….

Spain beat Argentina 1-0 in extra time to win the 2026 FIFA World Cup at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. It was a tournament full of drama, upsets, and cultural moments - not least in China, where Xiaohongshu streamed all 104 matches for free and Norwegian striker Erling Haaland generated nearly 1.8 billion views on the platform. China's national team, meanwhile, watched from home. Again. Mark Dreyer has spent nearly two decades trying to explain that paradox.Mark is the founder of China Sports Insider, author of Sporting Superpower: An Insider's View on China's Quest to Be the Best, and one of the most respected English-language journalists covering sport in China. His recent piece in The Economist on the state of Chinese football went viral, laying out why a country with enormous resources, a football-obsessed president, and 1.4 billion people has qualified for the World Cup exactly once - in 2002 - and shows few signs of returning anytime soon.In this episode, Mark gives his verdict on the 2026 World Cup - the football, the format, and the final. As a dual English-Canadian citizen, he also has personal stakes in two teams: England, who reached the semi-finals before losing to Argentina and finished third with a thrilling 6-4 win over France, and Canada, who bowed out in the round of 16. He breaks down the state of Chinese football at every level - the national team, the domestic league, and the youth development pipeline - and explains why the problems run much deeper than money or political will can fix.Mark also digs into how China consumed this World Cup differently: Xiaohongshu's landmark streaming deal, the Haaland phenomenon and what it reveals about how Chinese fans engage with foreign athletes, and whether China will ever host - let alone win - a World Cup of its own. Discussion Points· Overall verdict on the 2026 World Cup: the football, the 48-team format, North America as hosts, and Spain's win over Argentina· England's semi-final run and third-place finish, and Canada's round of 16 exit - Mark's personal take as a dual citizen· North America as a three-country host and whether England or China could host a future World Cup· The state of the Chinese men's national team: why investment and political will haven't translated into results· Youth football in China: structural problems, academic pressure, and what a genuine grassroots culture would require· The Chinese Super League post-boom-and-bust: where the domestic league stands after the salary caps and corruption investigations· Xiaohongshu's landmark streaming deal: all 104 matches free of charge, and what it signals about sports broadcasting in China· The Haaland phenomenon: 1.8 billion Xiaohongshu views, 'Ha Bao,' romance game edits, and what it tells us about Chinese fan culture· Xi Jinping's three football ambitions - host, qualify, win - and which, if any, are achievable· The single most important thing that needs to change for Chinese football to genuinely improve

It's Tuesday, July 21st, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson, Timothy Reed and Adam McManus Chinese pastor reveals prison conditions The Chinese pastor, just released from prison, because of the U.S. President's intervention, spoke out about his experience in a Wall Street Journal article. Ezra Jin said eight of his church members are still in prison, in rough conditions. He wrote that “[They] are confined in cramped cells and sleep on floor mats in blistering heat. Many leave behind young families. I won't rest until they see freedom.” Throughout the day, the Christians were required to sit on hard benches and could not stand up without requesting permission of the authorities. The pastor further stated, “These Christians love their nation. They only want to worship God peacefully, according to the Bible, and to serve others, especially the poor, the disabled, and the elderly.” 900 people in Congo, Africa have died from E-bola That E-bola outbreak in Congo, Africa has now killed over 900 people and will soon be the second worst E-bola outbreak in history. At least 36 health workers have contracted the disease and died in the outbreak. Samaritan's Purse has two treatment centers operating right now in the Congo. At least one of the ministry workers has been diagnosed with the disease, and is being treated in Frankfurt, Germany. State Secretary Marco Rubio denounces leftist political violence Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke at a summit on political terrorism attended by representatives from more than 60 countries. Rubio explained the culture of violence and revolution that is on the rise with the Left, both in the United States and across the world. Listen. RUBIO: “You are here because your political leaders are being attacked and stabbed and shot in your streets, because your businesses have been bombed, because your railways have been sabotaged, because your police officers have been beaten and burned. You are here because this is real, and it is getting worse. It can no longer be denied. It can no longer be ignored because it is time to crush this evil forever. “The simple fact is, none of this that I've just described is new. Far-left political terrorism is not a recent-day modern novelty. It is not a fiction manufactured by conservative politicians. For most of the modern era, it was, in fact, the dominant form of political violence.” Romans 13:3 says, “For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.” Vice President J.D. Vance and Usha welcome fourth child Psalm 127:3 declares, “Children are a heritage of the Lord. The fruit of the womb is His reward.” Vice President J.D. Vance and his wife Usha welcomed their fourth child into the world — Alec Neel Vance, reports LifeSiteNews.com. The Vice President spoke at a Right to Life event last year in this vein. VANCE: “So let me say very simply: I want more babies in the United States of America.” (cheering) He went on to say, “I want more happy children in our country, and I want beautiful young men and women who are eager to welcome them into the world and eager to raise them." This marks the first time in more than 150 years that a sitting Vice President has had a child born into the family while in office. Also, Donald Trump, a father of five, represented a shift after Presidents Bill Clinton's one child, George W. Bush's two children, and Barack Obama's two children. 7,000 Americans contracted cyclospora virus, many from Taco Bell Here in the states as many as 7,000 Americans are suspected to have contracted the cyclospora virus, a parasitic disease producing weeks of diarrhea. The Associated Press reports that federal health officials have identified lettuce from Mexico served at Taco Bell locations across five U.S. states as a source. Last Thursday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned consumers not to eat shredded iceberg lettuce from Taco Bell restaurants in Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and West Virginia. A record number of cyclospora cases have been reported in more than 30 states. The FDA's traceback investigation identified a single supplier of iceberg lettuce from Mexico. Officials suspect that the lettuce was watered with feces-contaminated water. So far, the disease is most prevalent in New York, Michigan, and North Carolina. Republicans wants to curtail surveillance Flock cameras Conservative Republicans in the United States House of Representatives put forward a bill to curtail the surveillance being conducted through devices such as Flock cameras. The bill, filed by Republican Congressman Keith Self of Texas, would force police departments to obtain a warrant to search through camera data and license plate readers when looking for criminals. Representative Self explained, “Americans' Fourth Amendment right to be secure in their privacy does not disappear just because of new technology or artificial intelligence. Americans have a constitutional right to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, and our government is supposed to get a warrant before invading that privacy. This bill simply restores that protection.” As of 2025, Flock is used by over 6,000 municipalities in the United States. The company had raised a total of $950 million in venture funding, with a $7.5 billion valuation. Court: Amish parents cannot abstain from school vaccinations The U.S. Second Court of Appeals ruled against the Amish community in New York, which had sued to abstain from school vaccinations. The ruling strips parents of their right to abstain from school vaccinations for their children due to religious reasons. The New American pointed out, “Should the case reach the Supreme Court of the United States, as legal experts expect, the decision could have nationwide implications for religious exemptions in all 45 states that currently allow them for school vaccines.” America's hot summer It's a hot summer, especially in the Western states. Billings, Montana topped out at a record 111 degrees on Sunday. Salt Lake City also set record temperatures. And ABC News reports that 100 million Americans will experience extreme temperatures this week. Forecasters are expecting 20-30 degrees hotter than the average temperatures. Aspen Fires in Colorado burned 100,000 acres The Colorado Aspen Acres Fire is the biggest fire in the country thus far — burning down 100,000 acres, reports The Colorado Sun. The Pacific Northwest has two big fires raging now as well. First, the Hay Creek Complex fire has burned over 92,000 acres, and the Rowe Creek Complex fire has burned 36,000 acres.

The Korner Booth crew is back with a massive episode covering the biggest storylines across the NBA, World Cup, and NFL as the sports calendar heats up heading into the back half of summer. We kick things off with LeBron James finally closing in on his free agency decision. Jared, Matt, and Nate break down the top landing spots in play — the Cleveland Cavaliers, Miami Heat, Philadelphia 76ers, and Golden State Warriors — and what The King's choice means for the balance of power in the league as he heads into his 24th NBA season. Then we shift to the pitch to react to Spain capturing the 2026 World Cup, defeating Lionel Messi and Argentina in extra time at MetLife Stadium. We break down Ferran Torres' game-winning goal off the bench and what this title means for the current state of Spanish soccer as they add a second star to the crest. In this week's featured segment, the boys put themselves to the test in an NFL free agency guessing game, trying to correctly guess which teams landed notable names on the open market, including running back Tyler Allgeier and quarterback Mitchell Trubisky as this offseason's free agency frenzy continues to shake out. We also break down the growing conversation around the NFL potentially implementing a third-place game, and whether it's something the league should actually consider.
