The Sportists cover a wide range this week as basketball, Olympics, NFL, MLB and golf all have newsy weeks.
The SLU Billikens take a tumble in a conference game. Suddenly, they only have a half-game lead in the A-10. Is this just a hiccup? Maddening Mizzou lives up to the name as they have a clunker against Texas, but Illinois is crisp and clean against Indiana.
Yadi is in Cardinal camp and Lars Nootbaar must walk before he can run. Are the "expert" win projections for the team low? And don't look for the strike zone box on TV this season.
Tyreek Hill is available - are the Chiefs interested? Or is this the Jay Leno version of Tyreek? Patrick Mahomes restructures his contract and the impact is significant.
Olympic hockey is riveting! Overtime games and tension abounds in the quarterfinals. And who had curling controversies on their Olympic Bingo cards?
One of the most entertaining golf tournaments of the year lived up to its billing at Pebble Beach. How long is too long to hit your next shot? And what would players shoot if the wind didn't blow?
All of this plus St. Louis CITY and you had better hurry if you want a Chiefs license plate in Missouri on this week's action-packed episode of the St. Louis Sportists podcast.
The St. Louis Sportists podcast is brought to you by 1st Coast Steel Buildings and Black Dog Consulting.
