* Fill-in the blank...If Notre Dame never plays BLANK again you’ll be just fine with it.
* Question from listener Mark Avallone: Does it surprise you that Chase Claypool appears to be getting a poor work attitude reputation? Did this present itself while at Notre Dame?
* Fill-in the blank...It’s BLANK that Jim Harbaugh has implemented BEAT OHIO STATE and BEAT GEORGIA periods in Michigan football practices.
See more topics below.
* Shohei Ohtani leads the majors with 28 home runs. The All-Star break is about a week and a half away and he still hasn’t decided if he will participate in the home run derby. On a scale of 1 to 10...How much does baseball need Ohtani in the derby?
* From a listener: If Notre Dame goes 12-0, will Sam Hartman win the Heisman?
* From a listener: Any concerns about Oklahoma State beating West Virginia handily in 2021 when current Irish offensive coordinator Gerad Parker was the OC at WVU and current Ohio State defensive coordinator Jim Knowles was he Ok. State DC?
* From a listener: What teams other than Notre Dame would you like to call a game for and who would you want in the booth with you?
* More from listeners: Favorite TV sports announcers/announcing teams.
