Our own personal NFL Draft party.

Saturday Apr 27, 2024
The NFL has turned the annual draft into a spectacle, like they do for everything else. Detoit was no different this year, so the show this week is us having a great time! We had a bonfire and just cut loose and recorded our show during the first 10 picks. It will not be our most insightful episode, but one of the most fun we've had in a minute. Hope you enjoy our real time reactions. If you don't, you're probably not fun at parties.

Spotlight:MLB Umpire, Dale Scott
Sunday Apr 21, 2024
Sunday Apr 21, 2024
Greg loves talking baseball and has an affinity for interviewing umpires this year!
Dale Scott’s career as a professional baseball umpire spanned nearly forty years, including thirty-three in the Major Leagues, from 1985 to 2017. He worked exactly a thousand games behind the plate, calling balls and strikes at the pinnacle of his profession, working in every Major League Baseball stadium, and interacting with dozens of other top-flight umpires, colorful managers, and hundreds of players, from future Hall of Famers to one-game wonders.
Scott has enough stories about his career on the field to fill a dozen books, and there are plenty of those stories here. He’s not interested in settling scores, but throughout the book he’s honest about managers and players, some of whom weren’t always perfect gentlemen. But what makes Scott’s book truly different is his unique perspective as the only umpire in the history of professional baseball to come out as gay during his career. Granted, that was after decades of remaining in the closet, and Scott writes vividly and movingly about having to “play the game”: maintaining a facade of straightness while privately becoming his true self and building a lasting relationship with his future husband. He navigated this obstacle course at a time when his MLB career was just taking off—and when North America was consumed by the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
Scott’s story isn’t only about his leading a sort of double life, then opening himself up to the world and discovering a new generosity of spirit. It’s also a baseball story, filled with insights and memorable anecdotes that come so naturally from someone who spent decades among the world’s greatest baseball players, managers, and games. Scott’s story is fascinating both for his umpiring career and for his being a pioneer for LGBTQ people within baseball and across sports.

The boys talk about their harrowing tornado experience.....not really, but they're just not used to that type of trauma around WV. Orenthal James Simpson kicks the bucket, and the internet is ruthless. Wrestlemania, March Madness, and Green Bay Wisconsin! There was a lot to talk about this week. Oh yeah, the Master's! I'm probably leaving something out. Tell me what I missed.

NFL & USFL lineman, Northern Iowa grad, Survivor contestant, entrepreneur, paddle board surfer, and more. If you're not familiar with Steve, you're missing out. Steve may just be the most interesting man in the world.... well at least a life many would envy. He's got a new book out that breaks it down much better than what we could give it justice on our show. That being said, we had a blast getting to know him. Check it out and go grab a copy of his book!!!

Of course we're excited about baseball, and we get Greg's predictions for the season, but there's a lot happening. The NFL won't quit making headlines, a ship destroyed a bridge in Baltimore, March Madness is in the Sweet 16, and Caitlin Clark beat out Mountaineers.....but lets be honest.....the refs really beat them. Plus we talk about Road House (both of them) and Biggie has never seen Tiger King and now refuses to even try.......

Sports gambling is more popular than ever and its March Madness time. We ran into Chad Patrick, host of the Chad Patrick Show and he gave up the grind of the 9-5 a few years ago and decided to bet on himself (literally). He's not helping anyone who's serious about getting some action. He's a wealth of knowledge on a log of things and delivers on a great first round strategy for this year's madness. Enjoy!
