Sebek and Bacott began Episode 28 of the JoeSportsFan Show talking about the recent debut of the โ€œJoeSportsFan Radio Networkโ€ โ€“ which also includes weekly shows from us (duh), and our homeboys over at HuggingHaroldReynolds.com and TheSportsHernia.com.

We then dabbled with a little โ€œThis Week in Historyโ€ (August 28st), which included nuggets such as the first โ€œprofessional football gameโ€, baseball triple-headers, retiring Don Mattinglyโ€™s number, and the closing of the infamous (read: extremely shitty) 1904 Olympic Games in St. Louis, MO.

In fact, the details surrounding the 1904 Olympics were so shocking, we spent our topical segment rehashing some of the more notable events.

During our weekly round table, we were joined by Sarah Spain (MouthpieceSports.com) and Ryan Hudson (RealClearSports.com) โ€“ which included the following questionsโ€ฆ

1.) With new Minnesota Brett Favre jerseys and Philadelphia Michael Vick jerseys apparently flying off the shelvesโ€ฆwhat is one โ€œathlete *after* their primeโ€ jersey that you always hated?

2.) What is the dumbest rule/scoring decision in sports? (i.e. pitcher who blows a save and gets the win).

3.) (From Dan Levy) If you could play for one professional or collegiate coach, who would it be and why?

4.) Besides the Little League World Series has come and gone, what other โ€œlittle leagueโ€ sport would you like to see ESPN cover?

5.) With the NFL starting up next week, we ask you, โ€œWhat team โ€“ for either their success or failure โ€“ will be the biggest surprise in 2009?โ€
