Nate says that the world is not as dangerous as the media makes it out to be and he says similarly like we shouldn't be influenced by the media, Pat Riley wasn't influenced by the fans and history in Miami. Nate says Riley didn't want Dwayne Wade back because he didn't want what happened in LA to happen in Miami. In the second segment, he talks about the World Series and he says like in Chicago, leadership and the trickle effect is also true for the Indians. Nate closes the show by answering a mail bag question.

Nate explains why having leadership at the top is crucial and he says that leadership at the top and culture go hand-in-hand. He credits Chicago's run to the World Series as a result of a positive culture change and leadership at the top that trickles down throughout the organization. He explains that successful people in positions of power always have a blue print and know the organization before they come in and he says we need to move away from national searches and look within our own communities. In segment two, he makes his week eight NFL picks and he closes the show out with the results of 50, 75, 100 Hope and card of the day.

Nate talks about how New England is so lucky to have Tom Brady. He says we don't give Tom enough credit for learning the correct way to take hits in the NFL. He points out the fact that Jay Cutler has none of the qualities a Tom Brady has and he says although John Fox is a great coach, he will most likely lose his job because of his decision to stick with Cutler. In the second segment, he talks about how he believes this is the year for the Chicago Cubs. He says leadership starts at the top of that organization and it trickles down. He says the Cubs have all the right pieces to make it happen. He closes the show with card of the day.

Nate spends the first segment talking about how the power of positive thinking and doing trumps anything negative we could ever do. He says the Cincinnati Bengals are an undisciplined football team and that if he were a member of their front office it would be time to make changes. He also critisizes Cam Newton on the way he handles himself after losses and says that there's a reason they're 1-5 since the Super Bowl. In the second segment, Nate gives you his week seven NFL picks and he closes the show in the third with Card of the day.

Nate opens by talking about Ronda Rousey's return to UFC and he says it's a major win for Dana White. He says that Rousey is a celebrity in her sport but that she's also a villain and he says that she is what the NHL lacks. He says the UFC is poised to take hockey out of the number four spot in pro sports as hockey faces the risk of taking big hits and fighting out of it's game. He says Gary Bettman knows what to do but he hasn't fully done it and it could end up being his legacy. In the second segment, he talks about the Chicago Cubs and Steve Bartman.

He closes the show with Card of the Day. 

Oct 3, 2016

Nate spends the first segment talking about the career of David Ortiz. He says Ortiz didn't just make a big impact on baseball with his hits, but also with his words, and his community involvement.
