The weather outside is frightful. The sports world is so delightful. Since we’ve got no place to go. Let’s go. Let’s GO. LET’S GOOOO, talk about what’s happening in sports as another podcast is here. On deck:

(6:40) MLB’s All Star Break mercifully comes to an end. I’ll see what the next two and a half months will look like as teams prepare for a playoff push. Who’ll be in the mix? Who’ll surprise down the stretch? Who’ll disappoint?

(32:39) NFL Training Camps are just days away from opening. There have been some major signings, including the Jets inking two of their most important players over the next four years plus.

(37:28) Bradley Beal was a bust in Phoenix. He’ll now sign with the Clippers after getting bought out by the Suns. How will he fare in LA?

(40:54) The NHL schedule has been released. When will the Stanley Cup Finalists over the past two years play against one another and will it be on national television?

(47:38) The Open Championship commences today in golf’s final major of the year? Does Rory McIlroy have the inside track to win on his home turf?

(55:22) A lightweight UFC bout between two rivals will take place between Max Holloway-Dustin Poirier. What can we expect between the two legendary fighters Saturday night?

There may not be a lot of activity in the sports world, but there are a few things to chew on so you know I’ve got you covered on whatever is going on as the latest podcast has arrived. On deck:

(6:28) Some housekeeping as I want to announce a NEW COMMENTARY video released earlier today. I discuss MLB’s big problem with Brewers phenom, Jacob Misiorowski, being picked to the NL All-Star Team with just five starts and one month of service time to his name. Not only that, but the sport has an even bigger problem that hasn’t been recognized and needs to do so soon. You can view it right here: https://youtu.be/hh8HoEd1DFc

(8:00) MLB hits the All Star Break after a big weekend in the sport. I’ll review the ‘first half’ to see where we’re at prior to the Mid-Summer Classic tomorrow night in Atlanta.

(33:20) Jannik Sinner got the bad taste out of his mouth in Paris after beating Carlos Alcaraz in London yesterday to capture his first Wimbledon championship. Is a third go around at a final up next at the US Open in two months? Iga Swiatek is back at the top of the women’s game in surprising fashion winning her first title at the All England Club. Is she close to being the #1 women’s player in the world?

(49:24) Cooper Flagg will be shutdown from playing the rest of the summer league schedule. Is that a surprise? That’s (Jalen Williams new contract from OKC) are among a couple of things happening in the Association.

(54:00) A few minor transactions have taken place in the NHL and the opening night schedule of the season has been announced, which I’ll touch on.

(58:16) A retirement to a former top pick overall, an injury to a free agent signing in LA and an untimely death to a longtime Cardinal highlights the NFL segment.

And MUCH MORE in between.

Torch Passed To Alcaraz Who Wins 2nd Straight Wimbledon. AL Intrigue, NL Wild Card Craziness Caps MLB 1st Half. Selfless Jalen Brunson’s Massive Gamble. Two Sad Passings In NFL

Smack dab in the middle of the summer season, the heat isn’t letting up any time soon. Same for yours truly as I’ll dole out praise and critiques on the latest and greatest in the sports world with the latest podcast. On deck:

(3:14) Some housekeeping to attend to as I implore you all to quench your thirst during this hot summer to date, by going to www.drinkolipop.com OLIPOP soda is your panacea to cool off during the season. You’ll get 15% OFF of your order by using the code: JAYREELZ at checkout. I truly appreciate it.

(5:08) What more can you say about the play of Carlos Alcaraz, winning his second straight Wimbledon and back to back Grand Slam Finals (he won the French Open last month) defeating Novak Djokovic in straight sets. Has the torch been passed to the 21 year old? Who else can challenge him besides Djokovic moving forward. On the women’s side, #31 ranked Barbora Krejcikova surprisingly won her first Wimbledon defeating upstart Jasmin Paolini in a riveting match as the third Grand Slam of 2024 is complete.

(19:47) MLB has hit the All-Star Break. I’ll take a look at the big picture of the first half (HINT: AL has some intrigue, NL not so much. Unless you’re looking at the wild card which is bananas at the moment), discuss some of the big series and stories from the weekend. I can’t forget about the draft last night as they do their best to generate interest similar to the NFL and NBA Drafts. The Home Run Derby tonight (and Pete Alonso’s participation) and how the All-Star Game is a shell of its former self. And I’ll spend a minute on the state of Wander Franco’s status as who knows when we’ll ever see him grace a diamond considering the latest news regarding the embattled star player.

(47:21) Knicks guard Jalen Brunson has taken a pay cut to increase payroll flexibility for the team to procure or re-sign players in their quest to get to the NBA Finals. Was this a smart move for Brunson? Will the Knicks make a deal to bring in someone with championship experience to their roster before training camp? Also, the league has released the group series for the upcoming 2024 NBA Cup. Seriously? Does anyone really care?

(57:40) Some sad news as there were two deaths in the NFL over the past few days. Longtime defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin, architect of the Tampa 2 defense of the late 90’s into the 2000’s, dies at the age of 84. And former Baltimore Raven, Jacoby Jones, who has the longest play in Super Bowl history (108 yard kickoff return) dies at the age of 40. I close out with a few choice words of enjoying life and living in the moment.
