Show Notes

Our thirtieth episode has landed...dropped...appeared...you get the idea. This one will be a treat for sports fans - great anecdotes about names you know like the Montreal Forum, Lionel Messi,  Nadia Comaneci, Joe Morgan, Lee Trevino, Rogie Vachon and Peyton Manning.  Plus we unearth great nuggets about lesser-known names like Jeremy Chinn, Mel Renfro, Barclay Plager and...get this...apparently there's been an NFL team in Detroit for quite years! (who knew?) On top of all those stories, our special guest this week is longtime NHL stud defenseman Dave Ellett. Dave played most of his career with the Jets and Maple Leafs in his 15 year pro career, so he's perfectly suited to judge our DORK DRAFT of the best Winnipeg Jets players in history. Yes, it's obscure and yes, it's a deep dive - but, hey, we've got two dudes from Manitoba co-hosting the show!  And it's called a DORK DRAFT for a reason!  Download it everywhere you get podcasts, watch us on YouTube and follow us on Instagram @thisdayinsports8. Thank you and enjoy!
