The Cubs were rumored to be in the mix to sign him, but their focus will now pivot to shortstop Dansby Swanson in free agency. Bernstein then explained why Capitals star Alexander Ovechkin is greatest goal-scorer in NHL history by a mile. In the Capitals' win against the Blackhawks on Tuesday, Ovechkin recorded the 800th goal of his career, becoming the third player in NHL history -- behind Wayne Gretzky and Gordie Howe -- to reach that milestone.

To open up this episode, Murph makes fun of the Red Sox's most hated rival. Yes, the New York Yankees and Murph makes fun of them because they suck so bad to start the year. Murph hopes they suck all year because they're the Yankees. Anyways, moving to actual Boston sports topics, Murph talks about the Red Sox and their recent 4-2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday night. Murph talks about the deep corner in right-center field and how just about anything can happen out there. Additionally, Murph is starting to like the Sox's bullpen and is starting to think they could be good in terms of reliability and maybe even trusting them.... or maybe it's too soon for that? After the Burin's abysmal 8-1 loss to the Washington Capitols on April 11th, the Burins have ripped off five straight wins and are now just four points behind first and second place in their division. Murph talks about the team's leadership, experience, character, their locker room, and more about this team as according to Murph, they are playing their best hockey right now. With the draft just eight days away, a leaked photo of a potential trade involving the New England Patriots surfaced involving a certain NFC team. Murph talks about this potential trade, if it's true, and if it is true, what it means for the Patriots and next week's draft. Oh, plus the Celtics lost to the Chicago bulls 102-96 so there's that.

Murph opens up this episode with a BANG as he conducts a once in a lifetime interview with his favorite football player of all time. This interview is a must listen interview that is worth more than gold to Murph. Afterwards, Murph dives into a Boston Bruins heavy episode as he catches you up with the at least from the Bruins as we enter a fresh new week. Bruins' defenseman, Brandon Carlo is week-to-week after a brutal hit from Washington Capitols' forward, Tom Wilson on Friday. The Bruins would go on to win that game 5-1. After not talking highly of Bruins new defenseman Jarred Tinordi, Murph now loves him. Find out what Tinordi did to deserve Murph's love. Although the Burins won on Friday, they ended up losing on Sunday to the New Jersey Devils 1-0 and that loss isn't good for the Bruins in the standings. Murph breaks down the current Bruins situation in terms of the NHL's East Division standings. Lastly, Murph briefly touches upon the NBA's All-Star festivities including how he doesn't care for the NBA All-Star Game.

Irene Pollin, a major contributor to the growth of Washington DC metro, is Andy O’s special guest on this all new episode of Our Town podcast. Irene Pollin has recently released her memoirs, “Irene & Abe: An Unexpected Life”. Her book reveals the ins and outs of Irene’s life with her husband and business partner Abe Pollin. Irene now shares her memories with host Andy Ockershausen in this episode of Our Town. Irene Pollin and Abe Pollin were introduced by Irene's Aunt Fanny who happened to be married to Uncle Dan of the Pollin family. Irene was 17 and living in St. Louis with her family. Abe,18, was living on the East Coast. After they met, Abe wooed Irene long distance – writing one letter after another. Irene recalls visiting his family in Washington DC in 1941 at their beautiful home off of 16th Street, NW. Irene and Abe dated more than a few years. Eventually, Abe not only successfully convinced Irene to move to Washington DC to be with him, but he also convinced her entire family to move with her. The two finally married in 1945 after the war. Most know that Abe and Irene Pollin literally built Washington DC. Abe’s Dad was in the construction business through the 30s into the mid 40s. He owned an extremely profitable plumbing and heating business (during the Depression) and that made construction a natural path for Abe and Irene to follow. They built houses and apartments and then years later they found themselves building massive complexes such as the Capital Centre and the Verizon Center. The Pollins had a tremendous influence on Our Town and found it an exciting time of growth for Washington, DC. Before Irene and Abe built the Capital Centre they were owners of the Baltimore Bullets. Irene tells Andy they never had any intention of owning a sports team but buying the Baltimore Bullets was a way to level out their lives. Prior to, they had suffered the loss of their daughter, and then Irene’s parents, so buying and owning the team turned out to be a good diversion. Listen in as, Irene vividly describes the intense feeling the first time they entered the Civic Center knowing that they were the owners. Baltimore was not a basketball town, and their efforts to grow their team didn’t work. After 9 or 10 years, when the Pollins decided to leave, Baltimore did nothing to make them stay. Abe and Irene were builders so they decided to build an arena for their team, and that’s when the Captial Centre came into being in Landover, Maryland. The Baltimore Bullets became the Washington Bullets. Building the Capital Center changed Our Town in major ways. Many big events that couldn’t come to Our Town before, could happen now. One of the most memorable events for Irene was one of Ronald Reagan’s inauguration celebrations. Frank Sinatra was on the bill for that evening, and Irene shares a story of what it took to meet him. Let’s just say she was less than amused. Andy and Irene discuss the travels Irene writes about throughout her book. The Pollins traveled both with their sports teams, and for fun during off season. Together Abe and Irene enjoyed extraordinary trips to Africa, China and the Philippines. On their trip to the Philippines they were guests of Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos. Irene laughs as she tells Andy about a wardrobe malfunction and how Wes Unseld held her dress together in the back as she got off the plane in Manila to a crowd of people. In 1997, with a commitment from then Mayor Marion Barry, the Pollins decided to move their teams – the Washington Bullets and Washington Capitols – to inside the city limits of DC. At that time Pollins also decided to change the name of the Washington Bullets to the Washington Wizards. Andy reminds us that both the Capital Centre and the VerizonCenter were built with the Pollins’ own money, they weren’t looking for handouts and incentives from the government. The VerizonCenter, previously known as the MCI Center,

We look at the 1975 Golden State Warriors’ upset over the Washington Bullets in the NBA Finals and where it ranks among all-time pro basketball upsets in the latest edition of the Over and Back Classic NBA Podcast’s Basketball Mysteries of the 1970s. We look at how the Warriors' Finals run came as a surprise to virtually everyone, how they managed to sweep a powerhouse Bullets team with Wes Unseld and Elvin Hayes, how it appeared the Warriors were retooling around Rick Barry and a group of young players after trading Nate Thurmond, how they faced Thurmond and the last run of a very good Chicago Bulls team in the playoffs, how they battled a Seattle Supersonics team led by coach Bill Russell and Spencer Haywood, how their playoff run compares to some of the other great upsets like the Cavs beating the Warriors in 2016 or the Rockets beating the Magic in 1995, how a schedule conundrum actually helped Golden State and hurt Washington, and how other key Warriors players contributed (including Jamaal Wilkes, Butch Beard, Clifford Ray, Bill Bridges, Phil Smith and Jeff Mullins). Then we discuss Rick Barry’s jump to the ABA, winning an ABA title in Oakland while injured, his difficulties with an unstable Washington Capitols franchise, refusing to play in Virginia, joining the New York Nets and leading them to an ABA Finals, and then returning to the NBA and Golden State in a very different league from when he’d left it five years before.
