Pray For Strikes; Not the Yips: The Drive 6/26/17

Monday June 26th, 2017

DMac asks Al what most people want to do when they get yanked out of a baseball game, and Al says head for the ice cream if you give up a Hail Mary. Also, the greatest athletes are debated after John McEnroe calls out Serena Williams. Aaron Goldhammer joins the show to answer DMac’s question: Would the Broncos still have won Super Bowl 50 with Brock Osweiler. Also, DMac says guys like John Elway need to have the common sense to present themselves in a professional manner.

LISTEN TO HOUR ONE HERE!!!

DMac was praying for Ottavino to throw a strike, and all he got was the yips. Al says you control that moment in your athletic career, and Jake McGee was mysteriously rolling. Ottavino says post-game he would have pitched until his arm fell off, and Al questions whether all were wild pitches or if some were passed balls. DMac is still supporting Ottavino & his nasty stuff, and Al says it’s about one inning & that’s baseball. Aaron Goldhammer joins the show to answer DMac’s question: Would the Broncos still have won Super Bowl 50 with Brock Osweiler. Big Al says Hue Jackson is one of the most innovative head coaches in the NFL, and Bill O’Brien is a nut-job. Goldhammer tells the guys Osweiler got third-team reps throughout OTA’s & reminds them just how long it’s been since the Browns were in the playoffs. Listen to the interview HERE!

LISTEN TO HOUR TWO HERE!!!

DMac tells Al he’s not going to learn more in the preseason than he knows now, and Big Al says there’s nothing worse than 9-7 or 8-8 and not getting a game-changer in the NFL Draft. DMac says John Elway needs to be careful about how he presents himself in public, and the guys debate how high Von Miller can go in the NFL Top 100. Also, DMac says guys like John Elway need to have the common sense to present themselves in a professional manner.

LISTEN TO HOUR THREE HERE!!!

The guys debate the best male & female athletes in the NBA, WNBA & Olympics. Big Al highlights LeBron James & those athletes with un-obtainable assets, and says hockey players have the most skill. A caller brings up some of the ladies of American Ninja Warrior, and the guys compare CrossFit to figure skating. Also, DMac thinks about bidding on Charlie Sheen’s 1927 World Series ring, courtesy of Babe Ruth.
