The $52M Firing, Ohtani's Cheat Code, and Why Your Team Still Sucks
Description
The latest episode of SMQB has Bison and Rooster delivering the hottest takes and the most head-shaking facts in sports.
First, they dive into the financial insanity of college football. We’re talking about coaches who’ve barely won a thing getting *tens of millions* just to go away, including a staggering $52 million buyout for Brian Kelly and $45 million for James Franklin. Where’s the outrage? The guys lay into the greedy system, but still find a few bright spots on the field, including the shocking rise of the **Indiana Hoosiers** into the top 5 and the ACC-wrecking **Virginia Cavaliers**.
Then, the focus shifts to the truly unbelievable: Shohei Ohtani's single-game postseason performance. Three home runs and ten strikeouts in one game? The hosts debate if it's statistically the greatest performance of all time and why his two-way dominance leaves him with only one comparison: Babe Ruth. They also break down the drama of the ALCS Game 7 between the Blue Jays and Mariners, shouting out Vlad Guerrero Jr. for stepping up as a true franchise hero. Finally, the segment wraps with a look at the NBA, where the guys call out the league for pushing the aging stars while the new, international crop of talent (Jokic, SGA, Giannis) is ready to take the crown.
