1. I honestly didn't want to lead with the Chris “Mad Dog” Russo “retirement” story because I think it's completely ridiculous.
Let me be more specific: If you actually thought that an enormously popular and legendary Hall of Fame sports-talk radio host (one who makes millions of dollars, no less) would retire from his job after promising to retire if a team won a game and couldn’t understand that this was a radio bit, then you are just a dumb human being. Plain and simple. There’s really no other way for me to say it.
But here's what has resonated with me more than anything regarding this story in which Russo said if the Diamondbacks won Games 6 and 7 in Philadelphia, he’d retire from his daily SiriusXM radio show.
