On this episode of Brand Spanking New, I explain why the NCAA needs to quit treating it's athletes like their under prohibition, why Vontaze Burfict should have been on the battlefield with William Wallace, and why NBA Commissioner Adam Silver wears Heelys in his spare time. I also unpack the idea of overpaying athletes and why Witches aren't crazy. Also, has anyone ever done Downward Dog while balancing on a giant pole?
Music Executives Mark E Stewart and Rob Hunter in their unique way discuss the cross section between Sports, Entertainment and Pop Culture. In today's episode things get intense when they discuss the Fair Play Act that allows college athletes in the State of California to monetize their likeness, something that the NCAA has banned everywhere else. They also discuss the Rap Beef between Shaquille O'Neal and Damian Lillard.

On this podcast, we'll discuss two on-field incidents that's been buzzing across social media all week. We'll first talk about Odell Beckham and "The Choke Seen Around the World". Was it a choke and what should become of it? Vontaze Burfict. That name screams "suspend me" when you consider that this is his 4th in 4 seasons. There's no doubt that his hit on the Colts TE was unnecessary, but is suspending him for the rest of the season (12 games) justified? Will the NFL Players Association side with him or turn their backs because he's always trying to hurt other players? These's things and more on the Zone Coverage Quick Shots!
The Raiders defeat the Colts 31-24! 2 wins so far, both wins vs horse franchises. Eric Harris with the play of the game pick 6 to make it 31-17. Late broken play score made the game closer than it should have been. Plus Vontaze being Vontaze and the NFL propaganda arm. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/dm-raidernation/support

This week, Wogan and Allen face a challenge – how do you address the startling mediocrity that was on show during Arsenal's trip to Manchester United? Elsewhere in football's good and bad, two goalkeepers mess up, two careers are revived in Germany, and one club is literally a car crash. In part twol, Wogan forces himself to revisit Ireland's Rugby World Cup defeat to Japan, before the boys struggle to get to grips with the World Athletics Championships playing out in an empty stadium in Qatar, and a player too violent for the NFL. Bye, Vontaze.

After each week of NFL football games for the 2018- 2019 season, the Heads 'N Tales podcast will be posting an episode dedicated to injuries and health & safety topics surrounding the NFL. Specifically we will talk about possible prevention strategies, the rulebook, equipment and other injury buzz around the league. The strategist for these episodes will be one of my closest friends, Josh Boyd. Josh and I grew up playing baseball together. Josh was a division-1 center fielder for Monmouth University and experienced his fair share of injuries throughout his career. Although Josh never played organized football, the dude flat-out knows the game of football and undoubtably knows more about the ins-and-outs of the sport better than I do from both a fan and x's & o's perspective. Dr. Wazim Buksh "Waz" is the newest member to the Heads 'N Tales team and has been a long time friend of mine. Waz will serve as the medical expert in these recordings to give you the most realistic expectations for when your favorite players go down with an injury and what their road to recovery will look like. Dr. Buksh is board certified in both Internal and Sports Medicine. Waz completed his sports medicine fellowship with the New York Jets medical staff in 2014. Our intention for these episodes is to spark conversations around topics that are usually brushed under the rug or only minimally covered in the hopes of making football and all sports safer for the athletes who play them. You are currently looking at the show notes for Weeks 7 of the 2018 season!

It seemed like everyone was talking about the violence and the brutality of play in this game. Even Jon Gruden, who tends to air on the side of "old school, tough guy" commented that JuJu's hit on Vontaze was "sickening."The storm cloud that hovered over the game after having the image of Ryan Shazier struggling to move after making a tackle early in the game stuck in everyone's head certainly didn't help the situation. Are these hits and injuries just unfortunate byproducts of a violent game? Or can something be done to make the game safer? If so, what is the approach?
