Today on the show we're talking about Changwon's first pro baseball team the NC Dinos. If negotiations fail, it might be their last pro team. Lots of controversy to cover in today's episode. Mr. S also went to the stadium and found the spot where the tragedy occurred. Has Changwon made the necessary changes? We'll talk about Eric Thames, the Hacker brawl, and the gambling controversy of 2016. Get your popcorn because there are MANY winners of the Worst Persons in Sports awards this episode.
