From Guadalajara to Winnipeg and Back Again
IJB Super Sub Alex Zeese, from the Hog Sty, tags in for John this episode and we join the chorus of detractors on the concept of the NFL Preseason. First up we talk about the surreal novelty of the 80 yard game between The Green Bay Packers and the Oakland Raiders and discuss the sordid details that ended in that debacle. This gets us going on ways to improve the preseason and why the financials probably block any real solutions. Then we go hard on MLB topics including the league feeling the need to warn players about truck-stop boner pills, Dominican drug cartels cleaning money through ex-major leaguers and the Houston Astro’s allowing Justin Verlander his hissy fit and banning a journalist from covering his game against his old team, the Detroit Tigers.
