The Miz Isn’t Pitching… and Nobody’s Happy

About this episode

The episode discusses Jacob Misiorowski's absence from pitching, Aaron Rodgers' future, and the challenges NFL players face regarding long-term healthcare.

The Homer Hour opened with devastation after Homer announced the unthinkable: Jacob Misiorowski was not pitching tonight. Homer turned Rain Man entirely into a Miz trivia challenge, testing callers on everything from his draft position and strikeout numbers to where he played college baseball. Jason Wilde joined the show to discuss Aaron Rodgers declaring this season his last, though neither Homer nor Wilde fully bought it. The conversation also shifted into a deeper discussion about NFL players and long-term healthcare, with Wilde explaining why players continue to resist pushing harder for lifetime coverage despite the physical toll of football. Plus, Tim Van Vooren joined Homer to rave about Misiorowski’s dominance, discuss why the Brewers’ young pitching gives them a real shot, and reflect on Aaron Rodgers’ legacy as one of the greatest quarterbacks the NFL has ever seen.
