USMNT Crash Out of World Cup | Stephen A Smith vs. Lakers' White Big 3 | Marlins Ruin a Perfect Game

The USMNT’s World Cup run is over after getting run off the field by Belgium, and we’re asking the hard question: are they just…mid? We break down another disappointing exit, whether the Balogun suspension drama had any impact, and laugh at FOX’s desperate attempts to convince America to keep watching the tournament. Then it’s on to the NBA, where Stephen A. Smith sparked another firestorm by ripping the Lakers’ new “White Big 3” of Luka Dončić, Austin Reaves, and Walker Kessler. We also debate the NBA’s experimental one-free-throw rule, discuss the latest LeBron-to-Cleveland rumors, and wonder if Tim Hardaway made the right call by refusing to let his son wear his retired No. 10. Baseball gave us another analytics vs. history debate after the Marlins pulled Eury Pérez in the middle of a perfect game. Should MLB make it illegal to remove a pitcher chasing history? We also talk about MLB’s labor propaganda ahead of a potential strike, ScottSki45’s Stat of the Week, Joey Chestnut’s 18th Mustard Belt, Conor McGregor’s latest comeback, PlayStation going all-digital, fantasy football guys, free nights and weekends, David the Gnome, and somehow Brett Hart catches a stray along the way. 🍺 Chapters 00:00:00 Introduction | How was your sports weekend? 00:09:05 What's in your mug? 00:14:25 USMNT disappoints against Belgium and proves that they are just mid | Did the Balogan drama have an effect on the team? 00:23:57 PlayStation is going fully digital 00:28:29 Fox begging Americans to still watch the World Cup after the US was eliminated was hilarious 00:29:15 Stephen A.

LeBron to the Warriors?! | Ranking World Cup Fanbases | Phil Mickelson’s Creepy Pick-up Move

The NBA rumor mill is officially in overdrive. We break down reports that LeBron James has told the Lakers they can move on after securing Bronny’s guaranteed contract, plus the wild possibility of LeBron, Anthony Davis, Steph Curry, and Draymond Green joining forces in Golden State. We also discuss Kawhi Leonard’s rumored return to Toronto and ask the important question: what’s the funniest possible destination for LeBron? Then we shift to the World Cup, where Germany’s penalty shootout collapse, Uruguay’s charter flight cancellation, and an electric Round of 32 gave us plenty to talk about. We also debate whether American soccer fans should stop trying to recreate European atmospheres and instead embrace what makes U.S. sports culture unique. We also rank the best World Cup fanbases, from Japan’s stadium-cleaning supporters to Scotland’s Tartan Army, Norway’s Viking celebrations, Mexico’s relentless fans, and DR Congo’s unforgettable Lumumba statue supporter. Plus: * Carlos Mendoza gets fired… while Mr. Met keeps dancing. * Kirk Herbstreit unloads on the Cincinnati Reds. * Can you still call yourself a good fan if you stop watching when your team stinks? * The unbelievable Terrion Arnold story. * Phil Mickelson’s resurfaced creepy pickup story. * Mexican Batman becomes our newest hero. 🍻 Join our Discord community: https://discord.gg/jvY9dgX8Sf 👍 Like the video if you enjoyed it. 📺 Subscribe for new live shows every week. 🔔 Turn on notifications so you never miss an episode.
