What a difference a few days can make as I’m riding high and excited as I can be, here to deliver an hour plus of my analysis on what the sports world has to offer as the latest podcast has arrived! On deck: (6:41) It’s a wild ride that I don’t want to get off from. The New York Mets have advanced to the NLCS for the first time since 2015 as they dispose of the Philadelphia Phillies in four games. Is this really happening? Who are these guys? I’ll go over the past two resounding victories, have a request for the baseball gods and could this ride take us fans to a World Series? I’ll check in on the other series as the Dodgers showed some toughness to push the Padres to a deciding fifth game. The Yankees get back on the beam after a rough Game 2 loss to put the Royals on the brink. Can Gerrit Cole put the hammer down in a close out game? Then the Guardians have to stay alive in Detroit as the Tigers are flying high to see if they can get back to an ALCS for the first time since 2013. I’ll also share my thoughts on the passing of former Red Sox pitcher, Luis Tiant, who died at the age of 83. (41:26) Five plus weeks into the NFL season, we’ve got our first head coach fired as Robert Sale was given his walking papers by the New York Jets. Was this too soon? Is his replacement (defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich) the answer? It’s a rather light Week 6 schedule as the two highlight games are Washington at Baltimore, Detroit at Dallas and a big Monday night between the Bills and Jets. (52:35) College football has a GINORMOUS game on Saturday night as #2 Ohio State will visit #3 Oregon. What does this mean for the college football playoff picture? There are two other biggies forthcoming (#1 Texas at #18 Oklahoma, #9 Ole Miss vs. #13 LSU which we’ll keep an eye on. (56:16) The NHL is back on the sports map. It’s only been a couple of days, but I’ll discuss the Panthers opening night win and banner celebration. The Utah Hockey Club wins their first ever game and now come to the New York area over the next five days, while the Rangers may be on a mission with a statement shutout over the aging Penguins in Pittsburgh. (1:00:49) Rafael Nadal will go off into the sunset as he’ll retire at the end of the tennis season. I’ll recap his spirit, championship play and does he belong on the sport’s Mt. Rushmore?
