S4E18 - 8 crazy Jewish sports stories to recap 2023
Description
Hanukkah is a festival of light, hope, gambling with dreidels (maybe a sport?) and remembrance—and so, this week, in the final episode of Menschwarmers for 2023, we remember eight crazy Jewish sports stories from a great year.
Our list includes shout-outs for the historic Canadian Open held at the Oakdale Golf & Country Club and Israel's triumphs in baseball and soccer; individual mazel tovs for rising stars like the Blue Jays' Spencer Horwitz, the three hockey Hughes brothers and MMA fighter Natan Levy; and breakdowns of more recent stories, like Mark Cuban selling the Dallas Mavericks.
So grab a latke, gather round the hanukkiah and settle in for a candlelit recap of the year 2023 in Jewish sports.
