The third segment explores the differences in fan culture between following Tottenham, a mid market soccer club that wins by investing differently, and the Indians, a mid-market baseball club that wins by investing differently. Finally, they check in on some great moments in sports history from the first week of April.

Episode 3: Robbie Returns!

The Bottom Up returns with some big news! Scott's good friend Robbie joins the podcast as a regular host. He's a historian by trade with deep sports broadcasting roots from his time at Marquette. Growing up a Packers, St. Louis Cardinals, Marquette, Bucks, and Tottenham fan but married to a Cleveland fan, Robbie brings an insightful outsider's perspective to all things Cavs, Browns, and Tribe. We're excited to have him aboard as we branch out beyond just the Cleveland Cavaliers and NBA basketball. Episode 3 Segments: 1) Are the Cavs tanking with Love and honor? [2:45] 2) Are the Cavs better off long-term with LeBron leaving? [11:34] Can the Bucks keep their own star in Giannis? [19:35] 3) Are the Browns building too fast, too furious? [33:52] 4) Do we care about baseball? [42:16]

Episode 2: 3-7-19

This week's segments... "Bored or Busted?": Watching our old friends LeBron James and Kyrie Irving struggle from afar, Scott and Logan debate whether they're just bored or if their situations are busted (2:01). "Tank or Try": The Cavs keep winning games with Kevin Love, and a vocal segment of #CavsTwitter is pissed. Should the Cavs be taking more directly, or with so many losses in the bank and new lottery odds are they right where they need to be? (25:31) Twitter: @thebottomupshow Instagram: @thebottomupshow
