2023-02-231h 10This Day in SportsJanuary 22 - DJ/Entertainer More or LesSend us a textOn today's episode, we focus our sports history lens to look closely at January 22nd. There are stories about Kobe's 81 point game vs. the Raptors, Willie Mays' HOF induction, the Minnesota Wild's name origins, the NBA's 1968 expansion draft in Milwaukee and Phoenix, a legendary Negro Leagues baseball player named Willie Wells you've probably never heard of (but definitely should have) , an NHL game almost nobody showed up for and a legendary Russian olympic shot putter whose name none of us can properly pronounce!Plus, in our DORK DRAFT feature we each take t...
2023-01-221h 14This Day in SportsJanuary 8 - NFL/CFL player/broadcaster Henoc MuambaSend us a textIn our first episode of 2023, the guys discuss a myriad of sports events that happened on the 8th day of the first month throughout history. We've got anecdotes about Mike Schmidt, the Australian Open, the Montreal Canadiens dynasty of the 1970's, March Madness (during which Mike goes into far too much detail about the $%^*ing Palestra) and the Music City Miracle. Then, inspired by the Music City Miracle (sorry, Bills fans) we did a Dork Draft (TM) where each dork selected their favourite 2 NFL comebacks and their favourite CFL comeback. Then, continuing our t...
2023-01-081h 11This Day in SportsDecember 25 - broadcaster Dan ShulmanSend us a textIn today's episode (our fourth!) we talk about two legendary but somehow also underrated NBA legends in Bernard King and Tiny Archibald and a couple of amazing feats they pulled off on Christmas Day. It's always a good show when we mention the California Golden Seals - plus there's goodies about Dick Allen, Marcus Trufant, Rickey Henderson - and you'll hear about someone named Ed Podolak - who had the game of his life while playing against about a dozen future Hall of Famers. Plus as a big holiday gift to o...
2022-12-251h 09This Day in SportsDecember 18th - NHL veteran Mathieu SchneiderSend us a textIn Episode Three of TDIS Matt, Sandy and Mike discuss the sports legacy of December 18th throughout the years, touching on legends like 'Rocket' Richard, Wilma Rudolph, Wayne Gretzky, Kobe Bryant and Ty Cobb. As always, the guys also make time for non-legends, taking little diversions to talk about a former top MLB prospect who wrecked his pitching shoulder in an off-the-field fight, the NBA player who's credited with inventing the spin move and a key part of today's episode is centred around VHS tapes (how's that for a teaser?) Then, for ou...
2022-12-181h 13This Day in SportsDecember 6th - NHL veteran Sean GauthierSend us a textIn our second episode, the fellas discuss trivia tidbits that happened on December the 6th - the chat features Gene Autry and the L.A. Angels, Heisman Trophy winners Ernie Davis and Archie Griffin, a little-known musical about Jackie Robinson and a crazy story about an all-too-brief appearance in the NHL for one long-forgotten Carolina Hurricanes goalie. In addition, the guys do a DORK DRAFT (Trademark pending) of goalies who had brief NHL careers and get Sean Gauthier - who appeared in just one game and faced only two shots in h...
2022-12-051h 23This Day in SportsNovember 20th - MLB All-Star pitcher Bob TewksburySend us a textOur debut episode focuses on sports history from November 20th. The date was randomly selected but features great anecdotes about Shaq, Tim Lincecum, the Cal/Stanford "band on the field" game, Hakeem Olajuwon, Robin Yount and the Boston Garden. There are also fun obscurities about Canadian Football, the 90-91 Sacramento Kings and somebody named Busher Jackson! Plus, for our "Dork Draft" section, former MLB All-Star pitcher Bob Tewksbury dropped by to discuss the greatest pitchers who never won a Cy Young Award. Plus, the whole thing is generously sponsored by COLUMBIA HOUSE R...
