The Sportaholic Show on 107.1 Radio Free Nashville 11/07/2012

The Sportaholic show breaks down the Tennessee Titans woes from top to bottom in the first segment of the show after they got bum rushed by the Chicago Bears 51-20. Who deserves the most blame for this debacle and how will Bud Adams comments affect the team going forward? How does this team find a way to get better? We ask all these questions and more about just what to expect from the Titans going forward.

We talk NBA on if James Harden can continue his torrid pace to start the season, the New York Knicks hot start and the Los Angeles Lakers getting their first win of the season. In NFL news we discuss the controversial Mike Shanahan comments on the Redskins playing for next season, the tricky Sean Payton situation in New Orleans and why on earth anyone would lock out Jerry Jones from his own team’s locker room.

In the 6 o’clock hour we speak with Dirk Hoag of OntheForecheck.com, which is one of if the not the best website covering the Nashville Predators. Dirk will break down the latest in the NHL labor dispute, how the Predators will fare once the game begins, the Ryan Suter exodus, Shea Weber’s big deal, and other NHL related news.

And of course we will have all the usual SRS staples from the Sportaholic NFL power poll, your local team updates, the Derek Dooley watch in Knoxville, and your college football and NFL picks for the weekend. All this and the usual banter between the Sportaholic Los Paige and co-host Jr. the Bossman.

We’re up to it again on the SRS talking football as we chronicle the NFL replacement refs debacle. How important is the integrity of the game to Roger Godell and the NFL brain trust? How are the players and coaches taking advantage of the situation and should we expect the real refs to come back this season?

We ask all those questions to our guest Russell S. Baxter, NFL featured columnist for Bleacher Report and contributor to ColdHardFootballfacts.com, Athlon sports, and FootballPors.com. He answers those pressing questions on the refs, recaps week 2 NFL action and gives us his prediction on Thursday’s night tilt between the Carolina Panthers and the defending Super Bowl Champs New York Giants.

We also check in with our Titans Correspondent Jimmy Morris of MusicCityMiracles.com to talk about the Titans horror show of the first two weeks of the season. Tennessee has looked like one of the worst teams in the NFL thus far and with the Detroit Lions coming to town off a loss to San Francisco, it doesn’t get any easier for the Titans. Jimmy break down what we saw against the San Diego Chargers and tells us what to expect versus Detroit.

All this and more including special guess Jr. the Bossman as we hit on all the latest topics from Yunel Escocbar homophobic eye paint and the MLB’s playoff race to the some of the off the wall stories of the week.
