Brenton and James talk this week about Bryce Harper ripping the DC fan base, before going to reviewing the AL East teams' seasons. The season boils down to a battle between the hot ripping and rolling Toronto Blue Jays and the suddenly resurgent New York Yankees with the walkoff helmet nabbing A-Rod. Tampa Bay Rays to Montreal or San Juan? Baltimore Orioles with a few question marks after a disappointing season, for our AL team. The Red Sox in the trash but geared to jump right back in with rising and stacked positional players.
NFL Preview Prediction Jam Fest! Who is serious? Who is jerking around even the concept of predictions? We also talk about some things in the news, like the Washington Dumpster Fire, the LA Stadium debacle with the St. Louis Rams, Niners turnover, and the coming Brady-Belicheck Rage Fest.
