It's episode 20 of For Pete's Sake! We're now five weeks into the NFL season and the league, and the sport, continue to see their favorability, popularity, and television ratings taking a nosedive, thanks to the increasingly unpopular national anthem protests. Commissioner Goodell and the league owners want nothing more than this story to just go away, but a few voices in the media, like Mike Wilbon, won't allow that to happen. Pete Solari takes Wilbon to task for calling Jerry Jones, and essentially every employer in America, "slave drivers." Also, the New York Giants are 0-5 and already looking ahead to the draft. Unfortunately, for some, this means looking for QB Eli Manning's replacement, even though the team has a plethora of other holes to fill. And with the New York Yankees and Cleveland Indians getting ready for a deciding game 5 of the ALDS, Pete looks back over the last 14 months, and the amazing transformation the Yankees have made. Last July, they were an old, broken-down team with the likes of Alex Rodriguez, Mark Teixera, and Carlos Beltran. Fast forward to today, and they're a young, fun group with a very bright future. How did Brian Cashman pull this off so quickly? Pete discusses all this and more in episode 20 of "For Pete's Sake" from MESN Radio.
