Super Bowl LIII vs AAF Season Opener

Wednesday, February 6th, 2019

Todd goes from pro football last weekend seamlessly to pro football this weekend in this edition of The Todd Wright TODDcast. Sort of.
.
While Todd offers thoughts on one play that clearly could have changed the outcome of Rams-Patriots, he also offers historical perspective on the “first impression rose” that this new professional football league is offering all of us this weekend. Whether you accept the rose seems much less likely than the ones Colton is dishing out to Taysha and Hannah. The Todd Wright TODDcast is presented by Brandon Legal Group.

Click above to listen or to download. Or listen on Google Play here.

PRESENTED BY*Joe thinks it’s very cool to have Todd Wright diving back into the kind of thing he was known for nationally. 

For the last three years, Todd Wright has been podcasting here almost exclusively on fantasy football and Lightning playoff hockey. While those podcasts are not going away permanently, they each clearly have offseasons.

So, for the new year, Todd has a new podcast. And it simply covers pretty much anything that Todd finds interesting. No limits. Sort of like he did for nearly two decades on national radio as host and creator of AllNight with Todd Wright on ESPN in addition to other roles with Fox Sports Florida, Sirius/XM, Sporting News Radio, etc. Our thanks to Brandon Legal Group for their continuing support of both Todd Wright Tour golf tournaments as well as the TODDcast into 2019. Enjoy.
