Episode 457 of "SI Media with Jimmy Traina," features two interviews plus the weekly "Traina Thoughts" segment.
First up is Super Bowl champion, Julian Edelman, who joins "Fox NFL Kickoff" this season.
Edelman discusses his new gig with Fox, why so many former Patriots are on television and why he chose TV over coaching.
Edelman also talks about what it was like playing for Bill Belichick and with Tom Brady, how Belichick would use other players' quotes to motivate the Patriots, how Brady would mock him for not being fully in on the TB12 Method, the issue of gambling in the NFL, his love of burgers, beef with Ben Affleck, bad betting losses and much more.
Following Edelman, John Ourand from "Sports Business Journal" joins the show to talk about the dispute between Spectrum cable and Disney, which has left 15 million subscribers without ESPN. What is the dispute about? When will it get settled? What should customers do? Ourand also discusses what we should expect from NFL Sunday Ticket and YouTube when the season kicks off, the strong ratings for the start of the college football season and more.
The podcast closes with Sal Licata from WFAN radio and SNY TV in New York joining Jimmy for "Traina Thoughts." This week, Jimmy and Sal talk about Week 1 NFL lines, the U.S. Open, Jimmy Buffet and more
