On the latest edition of the Sports Media Watch Podcast, host T.J. Rives and Jon Lewis of Sports Media Watch discuss the start of the MLB Postseason, pro and college football, the Draymond Green controversy and more.
On the baseball front, topics of conversation include Bob Costas’ return to playoff baseball as voice of the Guardians-Yankees series on TBS. Then, a discussion of last weekend’s college football ratings. Shifting to the NFL, Amazon Prime Thursday Night Football is heading to a weak part of the schedule with Commanders-Bears on this week and Monday Night Football could have some schedule troubles ahead as well. Jon has his thoughts.
Then, T.J. talks with colleague George Ofman of the “Tell Me A Story I Don’t Know” Podcast. George has Washington Commanders coach Ron Rivera on this week. They discuss Rivera’s career as a player and assistant with the Bears, his Super Bowl run with the Carolina Panthers and his current role in trying to help the struggling Commanders get back on their feet. Rivera also talks stories of playing with Walter Payton, growing up an “Military brat” and overcoming cancer a couple of years ago.
Finally, it’s “Love it or Leave it?” as the guys talk Draymond Green, the start of the NHL season and even, whether Jon likes his horror movies or not? It’s all part of this week’s Sports Media Watch Podcast.
