Get ready for a fast paced, jam packed sports podcast party as Episode 147 delivers more heat than a July afternoon! On deck:

(2:24) COVID-19 rocks the Miami Marlins as two games are canceled due to multiple players and coaches contracting the virus. What’s next? I’ll recap opening weekend, the playoff format for 2020, injuries to key pitchers (Verlander & Kluber) the Blue Jays new ‘home’, Mookie Betts’s contract, Juan Soto, kneeling for the anthem and two issues with the Mets three games into their season.

(24:25) The Clippers fallout with Lou Williams leaving the bubble and ending up in a strip club HAVING DINNER? Also, thoughts regarding Porzingis, Zion and the new Knicks coach.

(34:05) Breaking down the NFL health and safety protocols. Why the risk is higher in the NFL than the other sports, in particular, off the field? The Jamal Adams blockbuster to Seattle. Why this was similar to the Mets situation with Jacob deGrom a couple of years back and who’s to blame for the departure? Plus, the Washington Football Team? (????) QB Alex Smith’s comeback, Chris Jones and Tyreek Hill’s Miami Heat impression of how many Super Bowls the KC Chiefs can win? A player opting out this year and a retirement.

(54:40) NHL news and notes regarding various players as the postseason is upon us. A Maple Leaf hero passes away, the Kraken have invaded the NHL’s newest franchise in Seattle and a playoff prediction of the first round? Yes. With a question mark! I’ll explain.

(1:00:37) My Hero and Zero of the Week.
