RUNNING BACKS ROBBED, GENERAL MANAGERS SCAMMING & SPORTS TALK'S DEAD

Episode 18,   Aug 03, 2023, 01:00 PM

In this episode, I discuss a variety of topics including why NFL running backs are being robbed, sports GMs don't really know what they're doing, Deandre Hopkins will ball out with the Titans, sports talk as we know it is dead, and why I think FIFA is corrupt.

Welcome back to Sports & The Real Sh*t podcast.

The NFL propaganda machine is at it again. This time running backs are the victim. The prevailing thought among fans and media is that NFL teams should not pay elite running backs top dollar because they can easily find a replacement. Not only that, you don't even need a running back to win anyway, so there is no need to spend on one.

In this episode, I discuss why NFL running backs are being robbed and what can be done about it. I wonder why every franchise is trying to follow a one-size-fits-all model of team-building instead of structuring the team in a way that maximizes the talent of their personnel. That eventually leads me to the conclusion that NFL GMs are clueless and are essentially scamming owners for their salaries.

Key moments:

2:35 - Stop making excuses as to why NFL running backs are being robbed
26:52 - NFL and NBA general managers as a whole have no idea how to build a winning team
36:08 - DeAndre Hopkins will ball out and the Tennessee Titans offense will put up nasty numbers
43:07 - Sports talk is the equivalent of Real Housewives for men
55:14 - the latest example of FIFA being corrupt
