Summary
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.houseofstrauss.com First of all, congratulations to our SportsPredict Super Bowl winners SFZevi, Nathan Shea and Peter V. I had fun competing against all of you this NFL season, even though I reliably fell short of prize territory. But before we completely say goodbye to football, I present this look back at the game/season with John Middlekauff, absolute contest BEAST for The Volume network. Of course, we got off topic into issues of interest, as tends to happen. Subjects include! * How much is Michael MacDonald worth on the open market? * Why are NFL coaches paid so low relative to impact? * Why does nepotism work better in the NFL than the NBA? * Should NBA GMs make more than NBA coaches? * James Pearce Jr., coming off a 10.5 sack rookie season for the Atlanta Falcons, has been arrested and the details are horrific. How would you assess the pick and process if you’re the new GM of the team? * NFL media seems happier than NBA media. Why? * Is the NBA past its peak? * John’s boss Colin Cowherd famously warned against hiring golfers. Does golf nut Middlekauff still find time to play rounds? * Can Scottie Scheffler reach a higher echelon of fame? * Why are pitchers better than hitters at golf? * Is there a big market to watch non golf athletes compete playing golf?
