A Legend Among Us Simone Manual, one of the best swimmers of all-time joins us to talk about life, swimming, and giving back. An Olympic and World Champion and pioneering figure as the first black American woman to win Olympic gold in swimming, Simone has quite the CV. But she is charging on, having recently kicked off her season with some rust-busting, “off” events and is settling into her new training base in Austin with Bob Bowman. As one of the greatest “big moment” sprinters to ever stand behind the blocks, Simone surprisingly does not identify as a sprinter. She splits time among training groups and she shares some of the methods that have helped her achieve success. We also get to hear about how Simone is using her platform to celebrate, inspire, and empower both BIPOC athletes through the Simone Manual Foundation and female athletes through her work with TOGETHXR. This was a fun one. Enjoy and don't forget to subscribe for weekly podcasts and daily shorts!

The XFL is looking for more money, TOGETHXR has dropped its trademark lawsuit against the XFL, we're chatting week 10 of the CFL, previewing the BC Lions traveling to Calgary to face the Stampeders, and interviewing a boatload of people! Daniel Kaplan of The Athletic, Paul Reeths of OurSports Central, Darrin Bauming of Bonfire Sports, former XFL Dragons member Dontez Byrd, BC Lions standout WR Dominique Rhymes and newly signed Calgary Stampeder running back Dedrick Mills all join the show!BREAKING news coming in late to the newsroom, TOGETHXR has officially and voluntarily dismissed its trademark lawsuit against the XFL. The potentially disruptive lawsuit that's been hanging over the XFL's head since their logo relaunch earlier this summer is now officially over. There's still one lawsuit hanging over the XFL (and CFL's head) by way of David Adrian Smith, but for now, the XFL can breathe at least one breath of relief.The XFL is also in the news with reports that they are looking for more money, and are willing to give up to 35-45% of the company away to investors in order to get it. We bring on Daniel Kaplan from The Athletic to get his thoughts on the XFL's movements thus far. He reacts to the USFL's 2022 season, their business model's results, and what the XFL could and should do to learn and grow from the efforts the USFL made last spring. I asked Daniel Kaplan to share his thoughts on why the XFL might be looking for investors now before they've even kicked off their inaugural XFL season and what he thinks that means for the long-term success and health of the 3.0 XFL league. Daniel Kaplan also shares some new insights into the XFL-ESPN TV deal and whether that gives the XFL a leg up over the USFL in the spring football landscape. We also chat the NFL Alumni academy and if he believes that means the NFL will give the XFL preferential treatment moving forward.Long-time fan favorite, USFL historian and owner of OurSports Central (www.oursportscentral.com) Paul Reeths returns to the show to give his take on the XFL's recently announced investor plans. We compare and contrast the fundraising efforts the USFL is doing trying to find individual owners for their 8 named USFL franchises and what it means to investors that the XFL isn't selling off teams (yet) and merely giving equity stake in the company. It's a fruitful conversation looking at how the XFL and the USFL are basically going about league building the same way, only with slight modifications likely learned from each other.Lots of CFL talk on the podcast this week from friend of the program Darrin Bauming of Bonfire Sports (www.bonfiresports.ca). Darrin talks through the biggest storylines going into CFL Week 10 including the Winnipeg Blue Bombers' dominance, the troubles the East division is facing, Saskatchewan trying to wriggle their way into a hometown Grey Cup showing, and whatever the heck is going on in Montreal with the Alouettes. We also talk about the need for fan-focused and fan-driven shows and podcasts related to the CFL and other non-NFL leagues to help build fan engagement.3 player interviews on this week's show as we catch up with former XFL Dragons WR Dontez Byrd as he looks to make his return to the XFL when they hit the field in 2023. Dontez shares his thoughts on the importance of spring football leagues and how challenging it is for alt-football players to constantly keep themselves in shape during their nonexistent off-season, never knowing when the next opportunity will arise.We also get a first-hand preview of the big BC Lions at Calgary Stampeders game this Saturday by way of Dominique Rhymes of the Lions and Dedrick Mills of the Stampeders. Both gentlemen had stellar performances in their last games, Rhymes catching 3 TD passes from Nathan Rourke, Mills rushing for over 100 yards, and both look to make an impact this Saturday in this pivotal CFL Western Division matchup.0:00 The Markcast Episode Promo2:28 Show Intro7:07 TOGETHXR's XFL Lawsuit Dismissed8:38 Daniel Kaplan, The Athletic XFL Investor, XFL-ESPN TV Deal Interview36:22 Paul Reeths, OurSports Central XFL vs. USFL Fundraising Interview1:14:23 Darrin Bauming, Bonfire Sports, CFL Week 10 Interview1:40:11 Dontez Byrd, XFL Interview1:55:03 Dominique Rhymes, BC Lions Interview2:10:27 Dedrick Mills, Calgary Stampeders Interview2:18:14 Show Outro, Giveaway Photo Slideshow

Sports to chat XFL, CFL, preview week 8 of USFL action, and more!TOGETHXR, with a founding group comprised of Sue Bird, Alex Morgan, Chloe Kim, and Simone Manuel is suing the XFL over trademark infringement. They claim the XFL's recently rebranded logos look and feel “confusingly similar” to TOGETHXR's logos. The group claims to have made repeated attempts to contact the XFL and the XFL's legal teams and has now resorted to a lawsuit as a way to remedy the situation. Is the XFL's new rebrand in danger? Time will tell but this is another wrinkle in the already stretched out and fatigued relaunch of the XFL property under the helm of Dany Garcia, Dwayne Johnson, and Redbird Capital.Kevin Seifert of ESPN joins the show to share his thoughts on the ongoing XFL 3.0 launch as it relates to the alternative football landscape. Kevin Seifert spent years covering the XFL 2.0 relaunch in 2019 and 2020 and has loads of insights to provide when looking at the new regime's relaunch as it relates to Oliver Luck and Company's 2020 efforts. Is the XFL working behind the scenes to provide a stellar on-field experience for their 2023 XFL relaunch, or should more be known by the public at this stage in time? We discuss.Yahoo! Sports Betting Analyst Mark Drumheller stops by the program to give his thoughts on 7 weeks of USFL action thus far as we head into USFL Week 8 this weekend. Mark has an in-depth knowledge of the USFL team rosters (due in part to his own research necessitated by lack of information provided by the USFL) and has a ton to say in regards to this weekend's matchups. We also talk, as we normally do in regards to the USFL, at ways the USFL could increase fan engagement by providing and sharing more content from the crowd-sourced alternative football media that covers the league. Mark provides times of sports-betting content that the league could be used to grow the USFL fanbase, we pontificate as to why the USFL chooses not the embrace that.Finally, long-time friend of the show and contributor to XFL, USFL, and CFL News Hub Mike Mitchell joins the program for a late-night record session covering EVERYTHING XFL, USFL, CFL, and more. We cover the XFL-TOGETHXR lawsuit, go over the latest XFL coaching rumors including Bob Stoops to Dallas and Anthony Becht to St. Louis and wonder “what the heck ever happened to that rumored June 1st announcement date?” Lots to go over with Mike Mitchell in what should prove to be an extended and in-depth look into the world of the XFL, USFL, and CFL.0:00 The Markcast Episode Promo2:26 Show Intro7:14 Kevin Seifert, ESPN Reporter XFL / USFL Interview39:03 Mark Drumheller, Yahoo!
