RIP Dennis Haskins, FlyDubai pilot tries to take crash plane, Cornell gang rape investigation, Madonna's Tonight Show standup routine, Alix Earle v. books, Presley Gerber's sober house video, and Meghan Markle doxxed herself and paparazzi showed up. We'll be hanging on the 3rd floor at Rock & Brews this weekend for WATP Live. RIP Saved By The Bell's Dennis Haskins. Mr. Belding and Screech are reunited in heaven. A pilot went nuts on a flight from Dubai to Israel and the passengers needed to take him down. The NYT's editor killed by his in-laws turns out to be trans and the grandparents apparently didn't want trans grandchildren. Christa Gail Pike is spared the death penalty after a last second appeal. The Cornell gangbang is taking over the news cycle. Sunny Hostin has chosen a side as has Mariska Hargitay. Hey John Cusack... why you look different? Hey Farrah Abraham... why you look different? Blake Lively fires her publicist because it's Leslie Sloane's fault everyone hates Blake and Ryan Reynolds now. The MTV VMAs were awful. Paramount and CBS are super embarrassed and are in crisis mode. The View goes to bat for Madonna and they are wrong. Even Madonna's family wants an intervention. Madonna thinks she is a really funny stand-up comedian. Preteen girls look up to influencers. Alix Earle has never read a book in her life and thinks it's cool. Gay volleyball is the best volleyball. A'ja Wilson cannot take heckling from WNBA fans. Caitlin Clark fans are all MAGA. Sen. Eric Schmitt needs to learn the differences between the Hawks and Hawkeyes. A couple Sacramento Kings reporters were busted talking shit on a hot mic. Why come you don't have a tattoo? Presley Gerber also liked tattoos. He filmed himself wasted at the sober house before his death. London: Get in your proper line at the supermarket. Careful posting memes in the UK. Markleverse: Meghan Markle doxxed herself and is now complaining about paparazzi. Ari Emanuel thankful he doesn't have to deal with her anymore.

Hey good people! Our friends at Substack see potential in these cult classic House of Glass episodes and wanted to gauge the response from a more regular airing of them (in which we include video of our lovely faces). We're going to be doing these shows biweekly at Tuesday 10 AM PST/1pm EST. Next time we'll be doing a live version where we take some questions. But today, we've got a great one for you. The main anchoring topic: Have we reached the “top” for the NFL and sports league business? Ryan Glasspiegel and I discuss topics that include but aren't limited to: * Is the NFL's international expansion really about growing the game — or collecting billions in expansion fees?* Are American sports leagues taking their loyal domestic fans for granted while chasing the “undecided whale” overseas?* Why are ancient pocket passers suddenly walking off the couch and outperforming younger, more athletic quarterbacks?* What Case Keenum's resurrection says about the current state of NFL quarterback play.* Did Ryan Glasspiegel actually predict the Patriots' collapse because Drake Maye went on too many vacations?* Could Mike Vrabel's very public offseason embarrassment actually be affecting the Patriots on the field?* The cable bundle is dying, local sports rights have collapsed — could national NFL and NBA TV money be next?* The Sacramento Kings hot-mic scandal: normal private workplace chatter, outrageous double standard, or both?* Mike Tomlin is doing something NFL coaches almost never do: publicly calling another coach's game management “negligent.”If you're a House of Glass fan, please spread the word. We appreciate any and all of you who've supported our episodes over the years. House of Strauss is a reader-supported publication.

Alex Donno is in for Tobin! Donno and Leroy get right into the Miami Dolphins losing Devon Achane to a torn ACL; as well as their performance against the Kansas City Chiefs, offensive line's progress, and the young players are stepping up. The Miami Dolphins are set to take on the Minnesota Vikings Saturday afternoon. The Miami Hurricanes are preparing themselves for a road game against Clemson. And the guys break down what the Canes need to do in order to get a win! Reactions after NBA Media Day went viral when Sacramento Kings reporter was caught on a hot mic talking about Ben Simmons and Zach LaVine!
Alex Donno joins Leroy to cover a packed day in South Florida sports, starting with the Miami Dolphins dealing with Devon Achane's torn ACL, the team's performance against the Kansas City Chiefs, improvements along the offensive line, and the emergence of young players. The guys preview the Dolphins' matchup with the Minnesota Vikings and discuss Ollie Gordon II's expanded role, while also touching on the Miami Hurricanes' upcoming road test against Clemson, ACC rankings, injuries, and concerns on the offensive line and secondary. They react to NBA Media Day drama, including a hot-mic moment involving a Sacramento Kings reporter, and break down the latest from Miami Heat Media Day, including Giannis Antetokounmpo's confidence, Pelle Larsson's emergence, and his excitement to play alongside Bam Adebayo. The conversation also covers Marcos getting caught on camera with Klay Thompson, Leroy's thoughts on the Heat being labeled a potential play-in team, Bill Simmons' Heat takes, and his predictions about the New England Patriots. Plus, the guys preview the Florida Panthers' season, discuss how dangerous they could be, share a surprising Dolphins fact, and finish with a hilarious conversation about everyone's first cars.
The QB market has no middle class, and that is the tell that it is broken. Every starter in the league is either on a rookie deal, on journeyman money, or getting 40 million and up, with nobody sitting at the 32 million average where a normal market would put most of its players. Sam walks the value-added-per-dropback numbers through week 3 and finds Deshaun Watson, holder of arguably the worst contract in NFL history, sitting dead on the median while Justin Herbert and Baker Mayfield sit below it at 50 million plus. The episode opens somewhere else entirely: two Sacramento Kings reporters caught on a hot mic rating Ben Simmons and Zach LaVine, weeks after the Dianna Russini story put every female reporter's access under the same microscope. 00:01:00 Hot mic at Kings media day, and why this is not just a Dianna Russini problem 00:08:44 South Carolina suspends the player it paid 2 million dollars to win games 00:18:04 The Clippers took a torn Achilles back just to end the Kawhi era 00:18:43 LeBron is lying about the Knicks, and he has been lying about them for 15 years 00:29:20 Jaylen Brown is right about Colin Cowherd and wrong about sourcing 00:36:16 If you want everyone to name names, say what happened in Boston with Tatum 00:39:38 MetLife has taken enough ACLs that the NFLPA should be filing a petition 00:43:49 A top-10 pick traded for a fifth, and what that says about Kevin O'Connell 00:44:55 You need a really good quarterback, not an elite one, to win a championship 00:46:15 The QB market has no middle class, and here is the chart that proves it 00:52:26 Three Super Bowls in the entire worth-every-penny tier 00:56:25 Drake Maye was never good, he had the easiest schedule in the league 00:58:39 The extension is automatic now, which means nobody has to earn anything 01:03:01 Week 3 roundup, good games between teams that are not threats 01:04:53 Deshaun Watson is hooping, so Shedeur is not getting the rock 01:15:39 The Raiders are 3-0 and that last Chiefs game might have seeding implications 01:18:40 Aaron Donald came back off the couch to get double teamed anyway For all pod and video content hit up -> WWW.THEESAMD.COM TIP JAR: https://theesamd.link/TipJar Subscribe: Sports/Media/Culture YT -> Thee Sam D YT Tech YT -> Shill Free Tech YT Never Forget: #phillywillALWAYSletYOUdown #blackvoicesmatter
