NFL News, LeBron-Warriors Rumors, World Cup PK Madness, Taylor Swift's MSG Wedding, and Wayne Gretzky … Overrated?

Heifetz opens the pod up with some aggressive Taylor Swift takes (01:26), because of course. After DH empties the bag, the guys give updates on Brandon Aiyuk (09:13) and Terrion Arnold (13:29). Then, the World Cup gets the lads talking footy (31:39) before Craig can’t talk himself into LeBron James joining forces with the Warriors for Expendables 5 (51:34). Emails: The guys compare Wayne Gretzky to Myles Garrett (01:04:51), unpack more evidence of Joe Burrow’s appeal to lesbians (01:13:20), and more.
