On the Oakland Raiders podcast with Tony:

#1 The deal to send Amari Cooper to the Dallas Cowboys has changed the chemistry in the Raiders’ locker room, hasn’t it?

#2 Was this the move like team general manager Reggie McKenzie said “an opportunity that couldn’t be passed up” or was it just part of a fire sale that could be continued?

#3 The Raiders’ quarterback Derek Carr said he wasn’t crying after getting hit by the Seattle Seahawks in London. What was the true story?

#4 McKenzie said Cooper, 24, was under contract until 2019 and could have made $13.9 million. McKenzie said money was not the reason for trading Cooper.

#5 The Raiders (1-5) take on the Indianapolis Colts (2-5) this Sunday at 1 PM. Both teams in last place in their respective divisions.

On the San Jose Sharks podcast with Mary Lisa:

#1 The Sharks had an up and down road trip from October 5th through October 14th, but have turned it around since with wins on October 18th, 20th, and 23rd. That’s three in a row.

#2 How much of a difference did it make to have Logan Couture with a hat trick against Buffalo last Thursday lift up the team from that last road trip?

#3 In Nashville on Tuesday, the Sharks’ Brenden Dillion, Joe Pavelski, and Brent Burns all scored in the Sharks’ 5-4 win.

#4 What measure of success would you give the Sharks in their win over the Predators who had a five-game win streak?

#5 The Sharks (4-3-1) go to Carolina (5-3-1) on Friday night. The Hurricanes a first place team. How much of a test will it be for San Jose?

On the San Jose Barracuda podcast with Marko:

#1 How tough was it to lose to Stockton on home ice last Sunday after winning five of their first seven games in San Jose’s best start?

#2 The previous night before San Jose on Saturday got a three-goal win in Stockton 5-2, but the Heat was hot and wanted a revenge and bounced back on Sunday with a 3-2 win.

#3 In the second period, the Barracuda were in penalty trouble and they got shelled when Spencer Foo hit a goal for his fifth of the season and the Heat took a 3-0 lead.

#4 The Barracuda also struggled to score in the first ten minutes of the second period and that also costed them time and effort, especially when Stockton was converting shots.

#5 The Barracuda get set for San Antonio on Friday, October 26th at 5:30 pm. Marko sets this one up for us.

Sacramento Kings’ Tuesday report: Pooped out Kings drop third game of roadie to Nuggets 126-112

quotes from the sacbee.com

By London Marq

The Sacramento Kings were exhausted after completing their three game road trip in Denver to the tune of 126-112 loss to the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets are undefeated use the Pepsi Center to their advantage as teams come up to the Mile High City and sometimes struggle with the altitude such as the Kings’ Justin Jackson was referring to as the team got a little tired in the second half of the game, “It’s always hard to come to Denver and play,” Jackson said. “The altitude is pretty nuts out here. Did we get fatigued a little bit? We might have, and it’s pretty understandable. … It’s Denver. The altitude is — you can push for so long, (but) eventually you’re going to get a little tired.”

The Kings’ Marvin Bagley III enjoyed hitting a Kings’ mark for a rookie not achieved since 1995 with 20 points, nine rebounds, five blocked shots. The last time a Kings player did that was Brian Grant in 1995. Bagley became the third NBA rookie player to hit those totals joining former Detroit Piston John Salley (1987) and Stanley Roberts (1992).

“I’ve got to give it my all every time I step out on the floor no matter what the score is,” Bagley said. “I love playing this game and I think I’d be cheating myself if I didn’t go as hard as I possibly could and still be a great teammate no matter what the circumstances may be.”

The Kings return back to Sacramento for a Wednesday night contest with the Memphis Grizzlies at Golden 1 Center. Jeremiah Salmonson has your game coverage.

That’s Amaury’s News and Commentary podcast: Will Sharks do Spanish radio again after 23 years?; World Series kicks off tonight at Fenway Park

tsn photo: San Jose Sharks fans received Los Tiburones jerseys on Hispanic Heritage Night Sat Oct 20th at SAP Center in San Jose vs. the New York Islanders

On That’s Amuary’s podcast:

#1 Last Saturday at SAP Center in San Jose, the San Jose Sharks hosted their second straight Hispanic Heritage Night. Is this an indication that the Sharks are going to get serious about the Hispanic community as part of their media demographic?

#2 You remember when the Sharks started at the Cow Palace in 1991-92 they moved to San Jose from Daly City in 1993. The Sharks did have Spanish radio in 1995 with former Oakland A’s broadcaster Erwin Higueros. Could the Sharks possibly consider doing Spanish radio in the future?

#3 Would this be an economic benefit for the Sharks to have the largest demographic Spanish radio, which is number one in the South Bay and would be a marketing essential for the team?

#4 The Boston Red Sox pretty much dominated the New York Yankees and the Houston Astros through the playoffs. How do you like their chances?

#5 The Los Angeles Dodgers took four out of seven from the Milwaukee Brewers to land their second straight World Series, which starts tonight at Fenway Park in Boston for game one.

San Francisco 49ers podcast with David Zizmor: After eight sacks, C.J. Beathard looks for more time to throw in Arizona

photo from ninersnation.com: San Francisco 49ers quarterback CJ Beathard had to run for his life all day against the Los Angeles Rams at Levis Stadium in Santa Clara on Sunday

On the San Francisco 49ers podcast with David:

#1 San Francisco 49ers quarterback CJ Beathard fumbled once, was picked off twice and threw for 15-27, 170 yards, one touchdown, two interceptions in a 39-10 loss to the LA Rams.

#2 Beathard got sacked eight times and it seems like the 49ers’ offensive line didn’t give him much protection.

Cal Bears podcast with Morris Phillips: Cal sigh of relief end 14-game road losing streak; Do the Bears have a chance against UW?

photo mercurynews.com Cal Bears quarterback Chase Garber (7) had lots of room and lots of time throwing against the Oregon State University Beavers on Saturday

On the Cal Bears podcast with Morris:

#1 How much of relief is it for Cal (4-3) to get back into the conference road win column after 14 straight road tries?

#2 Cal made it no doubt in their 49-7 win in a huge win over Oregon State University (1-6). Was it because Cal came out fired up and prepared or they beat a club who were worse than them?

#3 Changing quarterbacks from Cal Brandon Mcllwain to Chase Garbers. How much did that electrify the offense and why did head coach Justin Wilcox make the change?

#4 The Bears got great held from running back Patrick Laird–a 53-yard run, 193 yards rushing, three touchdowns instrumental in the first half for Cal to take a 21-0 lead.

#5 The Bears host the Washington Huskies on Saturday the Huskies first in the Pac-12 at (6-2). Do the Bears have a chance?

NCAABB podcast with Michelle Richardson: Differences in treatment between women’s basketball players and NBA players

Photo credit: sports.yahoo.com

On the NCAABB podcast with Michelle:

It’s that time of the year folks. It’s NCAA basketball and NCAA basketball has all the drama that you could ask for in college basketball. It’s coming. The NBA is talking about paying players who don’t want to go to college and come out of high school and come into the G-League and give them $125,000 to play in the G-League.

That sounds really great, doesn’t it? But wait a minute, what about the WNBA? When will the NBA start paying the WNBA players? In case you didn’t know, WNBA players can’t go into the league until after four years of school. So basically the women players have to play all four years.

NCAAFB podcast with Michelle Richardson: Clemson got a huge win over NC State; Pregame scuffle between Wolves and Spartans; Leach says WSU getting short-changed on calls

Photo credit: @NBCSports

On the NCAAFB podcast with Michelle:

#1 No. 3 Clemson (7-0) took out No. 16 NC State (5-1) a huge night for Clemson in the 41-7 win. Clemson one of the last undefeated teams.

#2 Michigan (7-1) head coach Jim Harbaugh called out Michigan State (4-3) head coach Mark Dantonio after Michigan players were staying on the field as the Spartans were doing a pregame walk. Two Michigan players were clothes lined by two Michigan State players. It was reported in the view of those who witnessed the pregame fiasco as the worst exhibition of poor sportsmanship in recent memory.

#3 WSU (6-1) head coach Mike Leach texted that he doubts the Pac-12 is committed to player safety, favoritism towards other teams in the Pac-12, and more targeting in no calls against USC (4-3).
