Today’s word of the day is ‘Steinbrenner’ as in Hal Steinbrenner as in the Yankees as in the Dodgers. Hal came out and essentially said not even us, the mighty Yankees, can keep up with the Dodgers. Wow. (8:25) The Dodgers are donating $100 million to the LA fire recovery effort. Incredible gesture. (14:10) Max Scherzer is in Toronto now. $15.5 million for one year. Really? (16:37) NPPOD. (24:50) Review: Dune 2. (27:12) So You Wanna Talk to Samson!? Someone asked me about Bryce Mitchell’s absurd comments and the lack of punishment from the UFC and Dana White. Interesting.

Here we go again. This time it’s about Terry Rosier, but it’s the same ring that got Jontay Porter ban!

The best documentary filmmaker in America spent nearly five years of his life making a nine-hour masterpiece for Netflix. Which has now, officially, been cancelled. In his first sit-down interview about "The Book of Prince," director Ezra Edelman seeks catharsis — if not closure — in the battle for the truth and control over the life story of one of the biggest control freaks ever. Prince was a shape-shifter who lived and died as a mystery. So why won't his estate lift the veil? And when it comes to celebrities, what does "public interest" really mean?
