Cousin Sal and the DG3 open up the podcast by sharing their rave reviews of this season’s premiere of Hard Knocks. They talk about seeing a likable side of Aaron Rodgers, while Parlay Kid’s only complaint is that Saleh may use too much profanity. They segue this conversation into Coach of the Year odds (16:09), where they all give their winners for this NFL season, and to no one’s surprise, Harry still does not think Andy Reid is a good coach. Sal then looks to wrap up the NFL talk with more discussion about the Cowboys training camp and why he doesn’t think Trevon Diggs should be celebrating intercepting Dak as much as he is. Next up is baseball (37:11) and they look at Aaron Boone’s most recent ejection which left Brother Bri annoyed because he feels Boone backs his players although doesn’t hold them accountable. Finally, they wrap things up with their Play of the Day (47:29) and Summer School with TPK (55:09).

Cousin Sal and the Degenerate Trifecta look to start the week strong as they’re coming off a Sharp Tank sweep, including Harry winning his WNBA play of the year, although TPK was unimpressed by it. They recap the weekend in sports as the USWNT lost in the Round of 16 to fall out of the World Cup, while Jake Paul beat Nate Diaz in a fight that went the distance. That was not the only fight of the weekend, as they shift to the MLB where Jose Ramirez fought Tim Anderson and both received suspensions (11:17) so they discuss how baseball may need more fighting before moving on to which teams on the brink of a wild card berth will make the playoffs. Next up is the NFL, where they discuss the 2024 Hall Of Fame nominees, and they all agreed that only one of the players listed should get in (29:00).
