World Cup Farewells, MLB All-Star, and the Price of a Dean Blandino Cameo

Hello! It's the podcast that might have an open spot for Goat Yoga by the end of hour two. Today, Katie and the Casualties discuss the penalties for flopping, a sad farewell to our favorite adopted Viking, Erling Haaland, those who shoudl row and those who shouldn't, Gilberto Mora's high school graduation, the next steps for Mo Salah, the marine namesake of Vozinha, Cole Palmer and the summer's most awkwardly timed endorsement, Gianni Infantino and a 64-team World Cup, and a bad weekend all-around for commissioners, from Rob Manfred botching the top pick's name at the MLB Draft, to Cathy Engelbert no-showing Dan Patrick. Then, the team gets into MLB's All-Star Week, the draft, the Home Run Derby, and Bryce Harper being unknowingly thrust into FanDuel's enablement of a problematic gambler, the Orioles' winning streak, the Red Sox much larger winning streak and their sweep of the Mets, Isabella's trip to Citi Field, the Marlins dog getting his day but maybe not the day he deserved, the Wimbledon crowd, the lesser Jonas Brothers, The Hobbit, Smaug, and Jennifer Lopez's giant hat, and a round of "Good Look, Bad Look", talking about Tyler Herro, Conor McGregor, Sophie Cunningham, College Football microtransactions, and a well-timed Alex Ovechkin. Then Chris wraps the show with what to watch in sports this week.
