Manage episode 361999397 series 3417343
Lucky Episode 13! Today we chose April 29th - a day that is uniquely packed with historical sports moments. Sandy, Matt and Mike will talk about the second-best running back in Detroit Lions history; possibly the worst owner in pro sports history; possibly the greatest game in possibly the greatest pitcher's career; the Houston Texans taking a draft day risk - and getting it right!; a legendary rant by a Cubs skipper and one of the longest home runs in history. Plus - bits about Steve Carlton, Lanny McDonald, the '88 Orioles, Steve Nash, Bo Jackson, Boris Becker, Andre Agassi and Luis Aparicio. Our DORK DRAFT this week is one of our best, I daresay : Longtime Toronto sports radio personality Jeff Sammut joins us to adjudicate our draft of great players who ended their long careers in weird uniforms. Our teams for this one:
SANDY
Ty Cobb with the Philadelphia A's, Hakeem Olajuwon with the Raptors, Bobby Orr with the Blackhawks and Tim Brown with the Buccaneers.
