The Valenti Show

With the Edmonton Oilers advancing to the Western Conference Finals, Mike, Rico, and Kenny examine the job former Red Wings GM Ken Holland has done in the same role with the Oilers, and discuss whether they wish him continued success or not.

Mike and Rico revisit a topic from Costa & Jansen earlier today where they asked a question: would you rather the Pistons trade Cade Cunningham or the Tigers trade Tarik Skubal? They answer the question amongst themselves before opening it up to the people with your calls and ticket texts. Then, Kenny joins for some interesting 2024 season predictions on a "College Football Blitz".

Kenny joins the guys with a list of predictions for the 2024 college football season from 247 sports.

The guys go straight to the phone lines in this segment, answering your calls on the Cunningham vs. Skubal question they posed earlier in the hour.

Valenti brings up a conversation from Costa & Jansen this morning where they posed the question: would you rather trade Tarik Skubal or Cade Cunningham?

Mike and Rico kick off the show with the news that current Georgia and former Arizona State quarterback Jaden Rashada is filing a lawsuit against Florida for a breached NIL deal. The guys discuss what this means and how it impacts their thoughts about the current landscape of college football. They take a couple of your calls and read your ticket texts on the topic before David joins for an "In Football Today".

David joins the guys to run through a few big NFL stories, including what Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh is now doing (or not doing) during his team's practices.

Mike and Rico start off today's show reacting to yet another NIL controversy brewing over the past few days.

Mike and Rico start off the first show of the week by wondering what to make of Javier Báez's solid stretch of hitting as of late. They continue this conversation until the second hour, where the guys bring up the two NBA game 7s from yesterday and how to get there if you're the Pistons, or the Tigers or Red Wings, for that matter. They switch things up in the second half of the show, wondering how so many MSU and UM players could transfer to each other. Then, they wrap things up by revisiting their talk about Javier Báez from the start of the show.
