NFL, MLB analytics problem: don't just trust the numbers!; Why did Shohei Ohtani take that deal!? Tua situation not going away soon (Episode 671)

Nothing Personal with David Samson

Today’s word of the day is ‘analytics’ as in drones as in computers as in numbers as in charts as in percentages as in the Baltimore Ravens went for it on 4th and goal, didn’t get it, lost the game, and John Harbaugh said it was analytics! Why even have a coach anymore? There needs to be harmony, balance, in order for these things to work. (9:55) The NFL is in crisis mode. Tua Tagovailoa has a serious concussion. The Dolphins are under fire. The NFL is under fire. The NFLPA found the fall guy in the doctor that treated Tua. A lot of changes were made on the fly to the concussion protocol. (20:40) Review: Blonde. (24:35) So You Wanna Talk to Samson!? Someone asked me about Shohei Ohtani’s record-breaking arbitration deal. Very interesting! (37:00) Aaron Judge is still trying for 62 home runs. Have you seen his attempts? It is being forced on us!
