On today's episode, Jason kicks things off with a quick note on Aaron Judge hitting his 56th and 57th home run of the season. Judge is rapidly closing in on Rogers Maris' famed 61-homer mark, and is now the heavy favorite to win the American League MVP award over Shohei Ohtani. Later, J-Mac goes in on Brett Favre in the wake of the bombshell report that the former Green Bay Packers quarterback and a Mississippi politician were redirecting money from welfare recipients to Favre's alma mater. It's an ugly story, but unfortunately given Favre's history, isn't all that surprising. Finally, DraftKings podcast host and NFL/College Football analyst Mike Golic Jr. swings by to discuss why it’s time to recalibrate expectations for Marcus Freeman and Notre Dame after the Fighting Irish fell to 0-2 on the season, the narrative that former Irish head coach Brian Kelly isn’t a culture fit at LSU, whether or not we can expect Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers offense to rebound after that week 1 clunker, why it’s important to give the revamped Cincinnati Bengals offensive line time to gel, and preview a handful of upcoming NFL Week 2 games including Chiefs vs Chargers, Ravens vs Dolphins, Broncos vs Texans, Bills vs Titans, and much more!
