The Slumpbuster11/05/21 • 94 min
Welcome in Slumpbusters! In this edition of the Slumpbuster Podcast, Kyle and Ju-Ju talk some of the biggest headlines in the NFL, MLB and College Football.
We start off today's podcast on a somber note as we give our reaction to the tragic Henry Ruggs III story. Ruggs was involved in a high-speed motor accident that resulted in the death of a 23-year old woman. Ruggs has since been charged with felony DUI resulting in death. Following the incident the Las Vegas Raiders made the decision to immediately release Ruggs. Ruggs posted bail on Thursday. #HenryRuggsIII
Our next topic is on a cheerier note as we discuss the Atlanta Braves winning the World Series. We give our flowers to the Braves as we discuss them breaking the long talked about Atlanta sports curse. The Braves were led by World Series MVP Jorge Soler, Austin Reilly and longtime first basemen Freddie Freeman. What does the future hold for the Braves following their first World Series victory since 1995? (12:00) #Braves
The NFL Trade Deadline was this past Tuesday and while it was a quiet deadline there were still some notable stories. Von Miller was traded to Los Angeles, will the Rams 'all-in' approach continue to prove successful? Odell Beckham Jr. was not traded, what is his future with the Cleveland Browns? What can we expect moving forward between Deshaun Watson, the Houston Texans and Miami Dolphins following his refusal to settle his civil suits to aid a trade to Miami? (19:45) #NFLNews
Before diving back into NFL topics the guys give their reaction to the first College Football Playoff poll that was released this past Sunday. The CFP committee ranked the teams as follows 1. Georgia Bulldogs, 2. Alabama Crimson Tide, 3. Michigan State Spartans and 4. Oregon Ducks. On the outside looking in were the Ohio State Buckeyes, Oklahoma Sooners and Cincinnati Bearcats. Can any of these teams, including Wake Forrest, make a legitimate run at the National Championship? (36:30) #CollegeFootball
Lastly the guys give their week nine NFL Predictions on the following five games (53:00):
Cleveland Browns (+2.5) @ Cincinnati Bengals
Minnesota Vikings (+6.0) @ Baltimore Ravens
Arizona Cardinals (+2.0) @ San Francisco 49ers
Green Bay Packers (+7.5) @ Kansas City Chiefs
Tennessee Titans (+7.0) @ Los Angeles Rams
Will Aaron Rodgers absence affect the Packers as they travel to Arrowhead? Will Kyler Murray suit up against the Niners? How will the TItans generate offense without Derrick Henry?
Enjoy the Show!
