Casey, Damien, and Nick are in studio (Coach Tommy might be coaching third base somewhere in River Ridge) and the boys are fired up about everything from baseball hypocrisy to NBA conspiracies. 📈 Topics this week include: ⚾️ Pete Rose & the Hall of Fame: Should MLB honor him after death? The boys go all-in on Pete’s legacy, the hypocrisy of MLB’s gambling policies, and why DraftKings and FanDuel logos on the field make the league’s stance laughable. 🎰 NBA Draft Lottery Conspiracy: Did Dallas really just luck into Cooper Flagg? Or did Adam Silver make some calls? We break down why the Pelicans got hosed, the Luka/AD trade rumors, and what makes the lottery feel faker than a WWE match. 🏀 Pelicans in Purgatory: What do you do when your roster is expensive, old, injured, and still kind of bad?
