I listen to a lot of Fantasy Sports Radio and have for years ... the best show in their lineup is Dr. Roto and his Fantasy House Calls. His show is packed with info and strategy ... and he doesn't try to fill time talking about other crap or trying constantly to get a rise out of

Missouri prep kid (Grain Valley HS) who pitched at Crowder College in Neosho ... lighting it up!

I will never understand why MoDOT thinks the best time to work construction on interstates and reduce lanes is Summer, when kids are out of schools, people are vacationing and traffic is heaviest. Pure dumbassery.

MLB Draft is so screwy ... I kinda feel bad for all the experts who have to try predict and forecast a crapshoot of a draft that is often 100 percent about signability and money ... and not necessarily about the best overall talent, present and future. First two picks down, both

Thrifty Pittsburgh Pirates up next in #MLBDraft25 ... I'm prepared to hear that they choose some 7th grader from Montana who'll sign a deal for a new bike and cell phone.

I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, but I just never really understand when MLB teams draft US high school kids - who've been facing HS pitching - over proven college hitters and pitchers from the SEC, etc. I get that they like to project "development" ... but if I need to

The Kansas City Royals pass twice on Wehiwa Aloy, the SEC Player of the Year at Arkansas, in the first round and instead pick a couple of high schoolers. I guess the prospects of him playing 10 minutes away in Double-A in Springdale and drawing Hogs fans to Northwest Arkansas Naturals games wasn't all

Let me preface this by saying I have so many wonderful memories and so many great friends still working there that I want to succeed… but he’s right. It used to be a glorious buffet where you could pick and choose what you wanted. Now it’s like a banquet dinner: chicken or fish?

Lot of fun to catch up with Kellen Lindstrom on this week's ATO Sports Scene podcast ... the former Glendale football standout was one of eight freshmen to earn varsity letters last Fall for the Tennessee Vols while still maintaining his redshirt status. Now 6-5 and 240,

It's borderline criminal what the Korn Ferry Tour players due to Highland Springs CC each year they come through ... Neal Shipley, the former Ohio State Buckeye and one of the current Top 5 on the points list (and a fan favorite when he ventures out on the big tour, because he

Ahhh ... Wyatt Wheeler finally reaches his Wedding Day. I watched this relationship develop right before my eyes while subbing in as a radio co-host for Sports Talk and joining Wyatt on Mondays a couple years ago, when Abbey was running the production board for the show (and

One of my greatest treats is to be able to continue my tradition of interviewing the legend Phil Steele before the college football season, which dates back to my days with Ned Reynolds on local radio starting in 2001. No one knows the game better than Mr. Steele, whose

There is no more dumb or maddening stretch of interstate in America than I-65 heading south from Birmingham to Montgomery ... driving 80 one minute, 5 mph the next. No wrecks. No construction. No explanation.

Reppin' the alma mater on the beaches of Florida on this fine Saturday morning ...

The @ncaa has become such an incredible laughingstock. Caffeine? Seriously? All the corrupt crap going on in their member institutions from coast to coast on a daily basis, and they go after a swimmer for drinking too many Diet Cokes.

Love the Dan Patrick Show each morning, but dear god ... the caller segments are typically nails on a chalkboard. It's 2025 ... ditch that crap. I don't care what Gus in LA did over the weekend or that some guy's six-year old had a big game. I listen because DP is the best in the biz at

Amazingly, a college football program located in one of the most bland, depressing and desolate geographic locations on Earth has somehow magically transformed from total irrelevance to a major player in recruiting, and one of the easiest teams for the purist fans to root against

Wow ... Congrats Lyla Louderbaugh on reaching the US Women's Amateur semifinals! Lyla, a Kansas U golfer former Springfield Catholic golf star from Buffalo who lost in the opening round last year in her debut, knocked off the No. 1 ranked amateur in 20 holes yesterday and is

Observation ... if you are heading West on I-10 from the Florida beaches and an SUV flies by you, doesn't signal ever and drives like they think they own the highway in general ... there's a 99 percent chance it's a Texas license plate.

What a run, Lyla! 👏 Lyla Louderbaugh put together an unforgettable week at the U.S. Women’s Amateur, advancing to the semifinals and forcing a playoff. An incredible performance from the Jayhawk.
