Dan and Frank are back for Episode 42—the Jackie Robinson episode—and they dive straight into a fiery debate: Should the Mets have a giant statue of Jackie Robinson at Citi Field, despite him never playing for the team? The guys go deep into the stadium’s Brooklyn Dodgers influence, ownership decisions, and why Citi Field still doesn’t feel like a true home for the Mets.

From there, it’s a broad and honest discussion about sports culture and politics. Topics include:

• Stadium design vs. team identity (and why Shea was better)
• How the Phillies celebrate their legends—and what the Mets are finally starting to do right
• The Red Panda halftime performer’s injury at a WNBA game
• The University of Pennsylvania stripping Lia Thomas’ women’s swimming records
• Free speech double standards in sports—from Colin Kaepernick to Pride Night backlash
• Why the Guardians replaced the Indians, but Braves and Chiefs are untouched
• A passionate defense of preserving tradition while respecting all voices

Plus: A little crypto comedy, fantasy football shade, a shoutout to Jerry World and the Cowboys’ history, and the Knicks' new coach.

Frank returns to the mic this week as Sports Fellowship with Fox and Frank hits Episode 41—this one honoring Cowboys fan-favorite Bill Bates. Dan, Frank, and Rich reunite for a jam-packed episode filled with humor, debate, and deep dives into sports and mythology.

The show kicks off with laughs and friendly jabs about Frank’s recent absence, Allen’s off-air situation, and Rich’s initiation into the “crypto club”—complete with painful PulseX losses.

Then it’s time to celebrate the Oklahoma City Thunder for clinching their first NBA title. The crew breaks down the NBA Finals, the drop in ratings, and Tyrese Haliburton’s tragic Achilles injury. Dan even delivers a full Greek mythology lesson on how the Achilles tendon got its name—seriously.

From there, it’s all baseball:

• The Yankees are slumping, the Rays are charging, and the Blue Jays are lurking.
• The Tigers are red hot, the Astros are back, and Jacob deGrom is looking like himself again.
• Frank vents about the Phillies’ fielding woes, especially Trey Turner’s gaffes and the bullpen struggles.
• Dan argues the Mets are flawed but scrappy and predicts a September dogfight for the division.

They also discuss Cooper Flagg’s rise to No. 1 in the NBA Draft and media narratives comparing him to Caitlin Clark—plus commentary on Angel Reese and the race-driven rivalries being forced into sports headlines.

It’s Episode 40—honoring Cowboys special teams legend Bill Bates—but there’s no Frank tonight. Dan is joined by returning friend Allen “Action” Jackson for a wide-ranging, high-energy episode.

They kick off with a heated MLB segment:

• The Yankees have dropped six straight—can they fix it before the deadline?
• The Mets aren’t faring any better after their Pride Night anthem controversy sparks debate.
• Phillies manager Rob Thomson benches Nick Castellanos, and chaos follows.
• Shohei Ohtani plays peacemaker after benches clear in a Padres-Dodgers scuffle.
• Trade deadline talk, hitting slumps, and the long march toward the All-Star break.

In football, Dan and Allen tackle:

• Adrian Peterson’s embarrassing poker tournament fight.
• Jair Alexander’s fresh start with the Ravens.
• Travis Kelce showing up lean and ready for a final run with the Chiefs.

Then it’s NBA Finals chatter—with Indiana and OKC heading to Game 7. Halliburton and TJ McConnell are stepping up, but is anyone actually watching? Ratings hit record lows.

The show crescendos with a passionate discussion of the WNBA’s handling of Caitlin Clark. Allen and Dan react to the multiple hits she’s taken, the lack of league protection, and what it all says about race, media bias, and sports marketing. The message: Caitlin Clark is the superstar the WNBA needs, and ignoring that could tank the league.

They also dive into the Riley Gaines–Simone Biles controversy, trans athletes in women’s sports, and the cultural fight over fairness in competition. It’s an emotional, unfiltered segment that hits hard.

Dan, Frank, Rich, and returning guest Tyler go full throttle in this packed episode. It's the Larry Csonka Episode, honoring the Hall of Fame fullback from the undefeated 1972 Miami Dolphins—and it quickly launches into a spirited debate: Who are the top 5 NFL running backs of all time?

Lists fly, names are dropped, and hot takes abound. Jim Brown, Barry Sanders, LaDainian Tomlinson, Emmitt Smith, Eric Dickerson—everyone's got an opinion, and no one holds back. From Tecmo Bowl nostalgia to the overlooked greatness of Thurman Thomas and Marshall Faulk, the guys break down what makes a back legendary.

In the second half, it’s all about the U.S. Open at Oakmont, where brutal greens humble even the best pros. They talk about scores, surprise leaders, and how Tiger Woods may have changed the game (and possibly used PEDs to do it). LIV Golf, the future of the PGA, and open-wheel racing’s splintered history also sneak into the mix.

As always, there’s laughter, a little chaos, and just enough sports trivia to keep you guessing. A true summer kickoff episode you won’t want to miss.

S6, Ep37 – Casey Stengel, Mets Woes, WNBA Fireworks & Knicks vs. Pacers

In this week’s episode of Sports Fellowship with Fox and Frank, Dan, Frank, and Rich are in the studio for a wide-ranging discussion full of laughs, rants, and hot takes. Episode 37 is dedicated to the legendary Casey Stengel, and the guys kick off with a check-in on the Mets, Phillies, and Yankees.

Frank's Mets are stuck in a slump, struggling against top-tier opponents. Meanwhile, Dan's Phillies are flying high—but against weaker competition. The gang breaks down strengths, weaknesses, and early-season expectations across the MLB landscape.

Next up: The Indianapolis 500 is sold out for the first time in a decade. But are open-wheel and stock car racing still appealing to casual fans? Dan and Frank debate whether NASCAR’s format and politics are helping or hurting the sport.

Then it’s NBA time. Frank reacts to the Knicks’ heartbreaking loss to Indiana in Game 1 and previews what’s next in this rekindled Eastern Conference rivalry. Plus: OKC’s dominance over Minnesota and whether the Thunder are the team to beat in the West.

Finally, the crew weighs in on the Caitlin Clark–Angel Reese drama dominating the WNBA, with reactions to the hard foul, the backlash, and the growing national conversation around race, media, and women’s basketball.

All this, plus a shout-out to Fox Brothers Alarms and the First Baptist Church of Phillipsburg.

S6, Ep36 – Judge vs. Ohtani, Knicks Grit, and NFL Shakeups

On this week’s episode of Sports Fellowship with Fox and Frank, Dan and Frank are joined once again by Allen “Action” Jackson via phone and the always-reliable Rich Vassallo in the studio. The crew opens with some laughs, some 1-877-car-donation jingles, and then dives headfirst into a lively debate: Who's the best player in baseball—Shohei Ohtani or Aaron Judge?

Frank backs his Mets, Allen sticks up for his Yankees, and Dan grumbles about the Phillies. Baseball is rolling, Rivalry Weekend is underway, and opinions are flying faster than a Judge home run.

In the NBA, the guys break down the Knicks’ surprising playoff run, criticize Boston’s over-reliance on the three, and agree that the West (led by OKC or the Timberwolves) looks much stronger heading into the conference finals.

The NHL playoffs get a quick spotlight, with Frank rooting for Edmonton and Dan still salty about the Devils’ trap-era glory days. Plus, we’ve got hot takes on Brock Purdy’s massive new contract, a heated debate on the NFL’s proposed playoff seeding change, and early thoughts on the recently released 2024 NFL schedules.

All this, plus Fox Brothers Alarms, cookie shoutouts, and even some high school slang confusion. Sports talk with laughs, insights, and just enough chaos to keep it honest.
