WEDNESDAY RUNDOWN: A DOLPHINS GREAT, DUNK & HOCKEY TALK
Hurricane Ian, the CFL & NFL plus lots of hockey talk made Wednesday’s Episode #851 of The RP Show – Daytime Sports & Entertainment Talk – a can’t miss on Game+ TV! Here’s the rundown:
- RP and Moose Dupont opened with The Warmup covering these Quick Six show topics: 1) Winnipeg Jets coach Rick Bowness “was not happy at all” with Tuesday’s 5-3 preseason win over Ottawa, 2) The Yankees clinch the AL East at Toronto but Aaron Judge is still stuck on 60 HR’s, 3) Craig Dickenson said perhaps he was misquoted with the “We’re not very good” comment (3DownNation disagrees), 4) The CFL QB Carousel could spin before season’s end, 5) Hurricane Ian has Florida sports teams, and residents, running for cover, and 6) More junior hockey notes including the Bedard Watch and the lack of a full interlocking schedule in the WHL.
- 3DownNation’s Justin Dunk joined the show from Southern Ontario to update the CFL news and he feels Bo Levi Mitchell WON’T be traded at the CFL’s Trade Deadline. J.D. doesn’t think it’ll be a very active deadline but if there are any deals, he predicts they won’t come until deadline day on October 5. He also discussed the future of Cody Fajardo in Riderville, and this weekend’s Canada West Football slate.
- The daily Capital Auto Mall/Universal Collision Centre poll question was: Which is Canada’s Game of the Week in the CFL – SK/WPG, OTT/BC, MTL/EDM or TOR/CGY? At press time, the Riders & Bombers were leading.
- In Hour 2 we were joined by Miami Dolphins great WR Oronde Gadsden (1998-2003, 15th all-time in Dolphins receiving). Oronde is now a Dolphins radio analyst and said the club will be in tough to win Thursday at Cincinnati given the short week and the Hurricane Ian distraction, however he’s picking them to win. He also said the Dolphins defense doesn’t get much credit nationally, but everyone in Miami knows it’s one of the best in the NFL. Gadsden also discussed his career including catching Dan Marino’s final touchdown pass, his son Oronde Gadsden II’s career with the Syracuse Orange and more.
- Tuesday’s Rockstar of the Day for RoxDar Supply Chain Solutions was TSN Ottawa’s Claire Hanna. Wednesday’s was Oronde Gadsden.
