Padres Dodgers Fight to the Death, Chargers, Rams, NFL Week 1, Aztecs, USC, UCLA
The Dodgers only lead the Padres by 1 game in the NL West. Which team has best chance to win division? We remember MLB player and manager Davey Johnson. Chargers rolled Chiefs on Friday night. Is the Chiefs era over? Lots of big games in the NFL Week 1 including Eagles, Rams, Ravens, Packers, Raiders, Bengals, Dolphins, Steelers, 49ers and Broncos. USC beats a cupcake while UCLA and San Diego State suffer defeats. Plus, news from Ohio State, Oregon, Utah and Fresno State. Trouble in the WNBA with Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. Plus, Montreal Canadiens Ken Dryden, Carols Alcaraz, Max Verstappen and Christian Pulisic. Got a question or comment for Hacksaw? Drop your take in the live chat on YouTube, Facebook or X.
