Rich Sports Talk

On a previous episode of Bold Strategy, I discussed why people shouldn't be surprised if the Cardinals take Kyler Murray with the first overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft. On this episode, I look at why the Arizona front office has dropped hints they are looking at a new quarterback and that last year's first round pick Josh Rosen could be playing somewhere else in 2019.

Nick Foles will always be remembered in Philadelphia. However, the Eagles will not place a franchise tag on the Super Bowl MVP and he will become a free agent. I not only talk about the impact Foles had on the Eagles, but why teams interested in his services should think twice about heavily investing in Foles as a franchise quarterback.

Johnny Manziel has not only been released in the CFL but barred by the league. The 22nd overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft has not played in the NFL since 2015 and has been known for his issues off the field. However, should the AAF give him a shot? I break down why it would be a low risk potential high reward situation for the AAF to bring in Manziel.

Zion Williams has been diagnosed with a sprained knee after injuring himself on a bizarre play where his show exploded. On this episode I highlight the reasons why the likely first overall pick in the upcoming NBA Draft should sit out the rest of the season at Duke.

Manny Machado has reportedly signed a ten year $300 Million contract with the San Diego Padres. On this episode I reveal why the Padres were so desperate to sign Machado and why this will likely hurt this franchise moving forward. Also, why this signing doesn't make sense with San Diego's current farm system.

Carolina Hurricanes owner Tom Dundon has invested $250 Million into the AAF after reports of the league struggling to meet payroll. While many have been saying this is a bad sign for the league, I talk about how Dundon's investment shows faith in the upstart league and why the Alliance is like any starting business.

A historic Elimination Chamber is in the books as the road to WrestleMania continues on. I break down the historic Women's Tag Team Championship match and an incredible main event. What matches were hits and which were misses and more importantly what were the biggest storylines coming out of the evening. Which superstar could be a dark-horse for Daniel Bryan's WWE Championship? All this and more on the latest Rich Sports Talk. Make sure to like and subscribe for all the latest content.

A new fourth and goal and this one is a good one. We discuss the latest Joe Flacco trade to the Denver Broncos and Antonio Brown officially declaring he wants a trade out of Pittsburgh. We also explore Arizona's recent comments about the first overall pick and why Dak Prescott's comments about Tom Brady are false and could be bad news for the Dallas Cowboys.

On a special Where are they now? We take a look at how the world was introduced to Grammy Award Winner Ariana Grande. Before she became one of the biggest stars on the planet, the world first learned of Ariana Grande in 1998 as a Florida Panthers fan that made history. Little did they know at the time, she would go on to make music history years later. What happened to Ariana at the game? Listen to find out.

The first week of the AAF is in the books. The new league had a great first weekend in terms of ratings and quality of football on the field. On this episode I recap the first week of the Alliance of American Football and talk about what things they are doing to make this league a success. We also look at what great changes this league has already made.

Major League Baseball has suggested new rules that could be eventually implemented in games soon. On this episode Sucks to be... we look into why these rule changes are not only to speed up the game but rather a reaction to baseball losing fans to the other major sports leagues in this country. I break down each rule change and why baseball is desperately trying to appeal to a new generation.

When Bill Belichick sat Malcolm Butler in last year's Super Bowl people ripped his decision. However, this year there hasn't been the same outcry for how Sean McVay only used Todd Gurley sparingly. An MVP candidate this season, Gurley has said he was 100% and the Rams haven't had a good answer for their gameplan. On this episode I talk about how the Rams should be criticized for this decision and why it could haunt them.

For the sixth time the New England Patriots are the Super Bowl Champions. On this jam-packed episode we break down the big game from Bill Belichick proving why he's the greatest coach in NFL history. Why it will be hard for the Los Angeles Rams to recover from the loss, what Patriot is playing himself into Canton, and why this could be just the beginning of a new Patriots dynasty. All this and more only on Rich Sports Talk.

It is finally here! This year's Super Bowl features the reigning dynasty in the NFL taking on what many believe could be the next up and coming dynasty in the league. On this episode I give you my pick for Super Bowl 53 and what the game means for each team, quarterback, and head coach.

In the first blockbuster trade of the NBA season the New York Knicks have traded Kristaps Porzingis to the Dallas Mavericks. While both teams have seemingly benefitted with the Mavericks getting a potential star and the Knicks getting cap space and draft picks, this trade also means something else. It could be the start of teams aggressively tanking to get a higher draft pick. I break down the trade, the Knicks plan going forward, and why tanking is bad for the NBA.

On this episode of Bold Strategy I explain why it's time to get rid of professional All-Star Games. I highlight all the reasons why these games don't make sense anymore and how the gimmicks each league is trying are not working. Instead, I give you my ideas of what these leagues should do instead.

New Orleans Pelicans star Anthony Davis has requested a trade and has told the franchise that he will not resign. On this episode I breakdown why teams who want to trade for Davis should be careful and could be making an investment that could backfire. Also, I defend the decision by Davis and explain why fans, the media, and organization shouldn't crush the player who requests a trade.

Despite being two of the best free agents over the past decade both Manny Machado and Bryce Harper remained unsigned. On this episode we talk about how even though they will eventually get paid, it sucks to be both of these players because front offices in baseball have evolved and are terrified of mega contracts.

The road to Wrestlemania is officially underway. I give my thoughts on this years Royal Rumble winners while also going over what was great about the show and what could have been better.

The Rams and Patriots will face off in the Super Bowl and many will make the connection between their first Super Bowl meeting in 2002. However, both franchises are connected in another way. At one time both strongly considered moving to Hartford, Connecticut. The Patriots did agree to move which we covered on another podcast which is below and you will want to check it out. On this episode we highlight the Rams considering to move to Connecticut in 1994 and could you imagine this Super Bowl being the Hartford Rams vs. the New England Patriots? I talk about the relocation plans and which Connecticut actor was the head of a group that wanted the NFL in his home state.
