We had such an outpouring of debate on both the Trevor Penning debacle and the debate of who should be QB2 – Spencer Rattler or Jake Haener – we decided to extend the conversation into another show.
This time, Jim Derry has brings in a fellow local sports talk host, Eric Asher,to get afresh take on Wednesday’s Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 266) presented by Evangeline Securities. Also on “Wednesdays with Gabe,” Jim and Gabe Henderson shares some thoughts on the newest AP college football poll.
Lastly, just days after the Olympic Games in Paris ended, in the “Extra Point,” Jim goes back 85 years to the first-ever gold-medal 19-8 – yes, 19-8 – victory for the United State in basketball. It came over Canada, and it was outdoors on clay and sand in the muck and the mud.
