Max and Rich react to Stan Kroenke's record $4 billion purchase of the Angels and debate whether he can become sports' first "Grand Slam" owner. Then, Dabo Swinney calls NFL players returning to LSU "embarrassing," sparking a debate about whether the pursuit is fair game. Plus, Kevin Durant calls the LeBron-and-Jaylen-Brown-loaded Sixers a "juggernaut," and the guys dig into the mailbag for the NFL's next sneaker star, the NBA's European ambitions, and the all-time top-five midrange players.
