Outrage Over Record-Setting Contracts Is Historically Dumb

from Sports R Dumb · host Joey Held, Sean Hill

This episode is a big moment in Sports R Dumb history! To commemorate, we’re talking about historical contracts in pro sports — particularly, how UP IN ARMS everyone gets about every contract setting a new record of some kind. Jaylen Brown’s historical deal broke NBA records. Justin Herbert will be making more money per season than anyone before him…at least, until another guy signs a bigger contract. And by the way, those contracts aren’t nearly as big as they seem. We dive into why that is.Plus, we explore some blockbuster movies, fun language quirks, and why Sean’s voice sounds a little rougher than usual today. And Joey shares a somber tale about getting the yips during his high school basketball career.Did you dig this episode? Share it with a friend!
