College Football Future & How HAPPY GILMORE Is A WARNING For Pro Sports Leagues | Ep.106

What happens when sports stop being about the game — and start becoming content?

From Happy Gilmore 2 and LIV Golf to NIL deals and transfer portal chaos, this week’s episode dives into the question: what are we even watching anymore? Golf now has viral entrances, the PGA is fighting off two new “leagues,” and the future of the sport looks more like stream bait than sport.

Over in the NFL: Cowboys DE Micah Parsons’ numbers may actually prove he’s worth the hype down in Dallas. And Jerry Jones might have met his match.

In college football, we talk Deion Sanders' potential exit, Marcus Freeman’s media snub, and the smaller NIL deals reshaping young athletes' lives (including a free car for one of our own brothers).

Plus: Ichiro Suzuki's Hall of Fame moment. Is “Big Dumper” MVP really happening? Did the Yankees fix their defense? And can the Bengals learn from this? And yes, Jokic’s horse wins a race, and he cares more about that than the NBA Finals.
