130 - Don't Pay for Past Performance w/ Alex Boyajian

Alex Boyajian of Chaotically Intolerant podcast Season 3 Episode 140

 Alex Boyajian (Chaotically Intolerant, Gridiron Chaos) returns to discuss whether Die Hard is a Christmas movie, our thoughs on Mike Leach, the post-Xander Bogaerts Red Sox, free agency's ebb and flow, an article from Rolling Stone magazine and the pros and cons of getting mixed up with the Kardashian family. Alex was our guest in Episode 122 and we were happy he agreed to return to talk baseball and more.

The Rolling Stone article is: Andy Greene, "The Fifty Worst Decisions in Music History," Rolling Stone, November 28, 2022.

Errata: Mike Leach was 9-3 against Texas A&M. Since 2019, Stephen Strasberg has 8 starts, a 1-4 record, a 6.68 ERA. He has been paid $105M (before the Covid-19 short season adjustment) and has $140M to go on his contract the next four seasons. Jose Abreu hit 30 home runs in 2021, not 33; and he hit 15 home runs in 2022, not 15. Great White and Whitesnake played Rice Stadium in Houston TX in July 1988. Elvis Presley died August 16, 1977. Reggie Bush is an on-air football analyst for Fox Sports - he dated Kim Kardashian at one time. The new Kardashian TV show is called "The Kardashians."
