TSB’s Chris Littmann Talks Media Day & Super Bowl Week from Miami. Plus: Rex’s Fine, Signing Day, Golf Grooves and more Soccer Infidelity.
joins the show from Miami to talk about media day. We run though what the event was like and talk about some of the highlights. Honestly, rather than read it here, go check out the great coverage at TSB from Littmann and Tunison, who I am calling the Crockett and Tubbs of the Sporting News team.
Football Talk:
Nick and I follow up the football talk with more football talk. Really.
We discuss the two major ankle stories this week, including the one where Warren Sapp is adamant that Dwight Freeney won’t play this Sunday because he didn’t have his ankle wrapped or iced during the ONE HOUR of media day. Methinks he’s talking just to talk. Oh, and the other story? . Whodathunkit?
We touch on Signing Day and Rex Ryan’s fine as well.
Speculation Station:
We update the conversation in the PGA of whether or not golfers, including Phil Mickelson, are cheating for using old clubs. Scott McCarron has backed off his initial claims and says he and Phil now agree on the situation. Did Tim Finchem come down and give a “BACK OFF” edict, now that Phil is really the top dog left in the game?
And isn’t Rory McIlroy right:
“I don’t see why they don’t firm greens up and get the rough longer to bring scores down,” McIlroy said. “They can make golf courses a lot tougher and turn 20-under winning scores into 12 under.”
Housekeeping:
Yes! This time it was 12 years ago! And THAT’S why the US stunk in France. Gotcha.
Thanks for listening.
