Steve interviews Jay Mariotti (00:09:12) one of the best sports writers of all-time. Jay still has a passion for writing columns and publishes several each week on his substack page. Jay is on the pod for the third time to talk about the troubling numbers for Major League Baseball, the legacy of Bobby Knight, and the dominance of the National Football League.
Also, Doug MacLean and Scott Morrison (01:09:18) join to talk about their new book, Draft Day. Doug and Scott explain how and why they hooked up for this project and explain why the pandemic delayed it. Also, the guys talked about the famous Eric Lindros trade, explain why Sam Pollock was the GOAT, and rank the last handful of first overall picks.
Steve starts the show with First Things First in a grouchy mood (again) complaining about the Braves, Saints, and Sabres. The book club begins to clear the deck for the end of 2023. The show ends with one last thing about Steve trying to stay in the moment and the change in his perception of time.
