Episode Synopsis

Remember when sports and politics were really two very different things? Not anymore. Donald Trump is dealing in threats over the World Cup seeking political revenge in New England. The North Carolina Tar Heels have considered a true deal with the devil over more money for their athletic program. Fans are getting uneasy and raucous when calls for ICE at events means much more than a simple insult. All that, and how Penn State showed their true colors over James Franklin, and why that Florida Gators top football job might not be as attractive as it sounds.
