Today's word of the day is 'marginalize' as in to treat as insignificant or peripheral as in what MLB commissioner Rob Manfred said about this season's postseason format. Why would he say that? This postseason was expanded to 16 teams, but it won't be like that next season. Manfred said they spoke about 14 teams for a 'regular' year. What about the World Series? Manfred said he wants fans in the stands (0:06). What's happening in the NBA? Not on the court, I'm talking off the court. Adam Silver spoke on Tuesday and said the league likely won't start until January 2021 now. One of the biggest threats to the NBA bubble is not just covid, but also the impact on the mental health of the players. This is why the league cannot afford a bubble again for a full season (13:05). So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me about the Denver Nuggets-Los Angeles Lakers series. They wanted to know how critical the Game 3 win was for the Nuggets (21:00). Review - A Beautiful Planet (30:00). Let's talk about Bruce Arians and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. First it was his comments on Tom Brady. Now it's his comments on Rob Gronkowski. What have we learned about this situation (34:20)? We'll end today talking about masks again. The NFL fined more coaches for not wearing masks properly. The total money fined is now at $1.75M in ONE WEEKEND alone! Will this continue (41:35)? #waittosee --------------------------- 'Nothing Personal with David Samson' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox, Bullhorn and wherever else you listen to podcasts.
