Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

So You Wanna Talk to Samson Wednesday! Load management fines; Orioles major trade; MLB gambling scandal (Episode 1381 Hour 2)
Q: What do you think of the idea of a real change in football where if a team scores a touchdown, they actually get to keep possession of the ball for another drive?
It's an interesting idea, but it could lead to a more powerful offense that diminishes the competitiveness of the game.
So You Wanna Talk to Samson Wednesday! Load management fines; Orioles major trade; MLB gambling scandal (Episode 1381 Hour 2)
Q: With countries like Japan already using pulsing systems or teams get fees off the player movement over to the MLB, do you think an international draft will make things better or just take power and money away from those foreign clubs?
An international draft could level the playing field but would not necessarily benefit foreign clubs as the draft won't cover Japanese players.
So You Wanna Talk to Samson Wednesday! Load management fines; Orioles major trade; MLB gambling scandal (Episode 1381 Hour 2)
Q: David, are you going to talk about the Cleveland Cavaliers being fined $100,000 for load management?
The Cavaliers were fined for load management, indicating a broader issue of players not participating in games despite contract obligations.
So You Wanna Talk to Samson Wednesday! MLB contracts before CBA! Mental health services! Worst owner in sports! (Episode 1378 Hour 2)
Q: Do team psychologists step in automatically, or do players have to ask for help?
Teams have layers of help, including sports psychologists who can assist players; however, individual therapy may not be forced upon players.
It's a Coca Thursday! BREAKING NEWS on Terry Rozier, Chauncey Billups! World Series talk, and Bad Bunny! (Episode 1370 Hour 2)
Q: Is Chauncey Billups gonna coach again in the NBA?
Based on the presented information, my answer would be no that he's not going to just based off of the information that we had.
