Burn It All Down

Ep. 223: The Power of Expansion Teams

19 Oct 2021

Description

In this episode, Shireen Ahmed, Lindsay Gibbs and Jessica Luther delve into expansion teams. But first, they share their favorite Halloween treats. Then, inspired by the newest NHL team, the Seattle Kraken, they discuss how expansion teams come to be, what makes them successful and how they can bring fandom to new places. They also explore challenges to expansion, including why the WNBA has been unable to add teams in recent years despite the remarkable talent. Following this discussion, there is a preview of Jessica's interview with race car driver Sabre Cook. Then, the team burns all the garbage of sports this week in the Burn Pile. Next, they celebrate those bringing light and goodness to sport, including Torchbearer of the Week, Dawn Staley, who clinched an incredible contract as head basketball coach at the University of South Carolina. They end the show with what's good in their lives and what they are watching in sports this week. This episode was produced by Tressa Versteeg.
