SHOW NOTES
* 128
* BRSH #127: Trumped Up: We’re Rome; We’ll Help You Pack, Jake.
* From Jonathan Jones, SI:
[Luke] Kuechly is probably the most photographed person in Charlotte. There is no record of him ever turning down a photo request. He’s so good-natured that his trash talk comes out awkwardly. He’ll ask a media member how his family is doing just because.
There is no pretense to Kuechly. He’s one of few professional athletes where you can say he’s a good guy and not worry about that statement coming back to bite you down the road.
* Presidential Medal of Freedom winner Michael Jordan’s Greatest Hits:
- Commerce Over Conscience.
- Michael Jordan Sues Grocery Stores For Thank You Ads.
- Jordan’s Night To Remember Turns Petty.
9:07: The “P” In MVP Stands For “Player,” Not “Person.”
* Great player, appreciated in these corners, but too much fanboy:
Wow, young Kris Bryant. https://t.co/KmnwtsnMtC

* Mike Montgomery’s Long Journey To The Cubs’ Biggest Out In 108 Years.
* Verducci: Reign Men: The Storm, The Speech And The Inside Story Of The Cubs’ Game 7 Triumph:
They had been fishing for bigger names on the trade market, but pro scouting director Jared Porter and director of major league scouting Kyle Evans kept pushing for Montgomery. In a year, they told Epstein, he would be a solid four-pitch starter.
34:46: Peak Jay Cutler (Again).
* The Most Cutlery Cutler Ever.
* Cutler: White, But Not Working Class, Is A “Longtime” Trump Supporter.
* Alshon Jeffery Has Clarified His Situation.
44:04: Grandpa Wade.
* Bulls’ Jerian Grant Turns Chip On His Shoulder Into Unexpected Star Turn.
* Derrick Rose Won’t Be Bullied Into Selling His Trump Property.
57:45: Corey Crawford Standing On Head.
