NBA Mailbag Questions & Another Ja Morant Self-Own, Plus CFB Rivalry Week w/ Stanford Steve

Ryen opens with Ja Morant’s wild comments toward Klay Thompson and runs through the history of Ja not backing up his trash talk before Ceruti throws some NBA mailbag questions at him. Then, ESPN’s Stanford Steve stops by to preview college football rivalry week and share some great stories from being on the road for SportsCenter and GameDay. Finally, Ryen, Kyle, and Ceruti close it out with some listener-submitted Life Advice, including a guy who is “tanking” in real life, whether you can sell tickets you got as a gift, and if one guy should stop wearing his purple hat.
