Today's word of the day is 'Orwellian' as in George Orwell as in MLB is now acting as Big Brother and watching over the players now like hawks. New protocols have been issued by MLB. Players are now enforcing rules. Changes are happening. MLB is trying to save baseball (0:06). I had said before the MLB season started that players were NOT ready for the season. What have we seen now? Injuries. So many injuries. This is a major problem. Where do I even start? Scherzer, Strasburg, Osuna, Verlander, Ohtani, Soroka... and on and on it goes (13:55). Now let's talk about what's happening at Texas Tech. It has to do with the women's basketball team and the complete and udder negligence shown by the coaching staff (22:15). Review - Woodstock Documentary (32:30). So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me what I would do if my players wore shirts in support of a candidate that was running against one of the owners of the team. This is the case in the WNBA with players wearing "Vote Warnock" shirts before games to oppose Sen. Kelly Loeffler (37:00). #waittosee
