BTR Sports
BTR Sports with Sam and Kory is a sports show focusing on more than just the results and Brett Favre. Each week we take an in-depth look at a topic from the world of sport from a broader, cultural angle. This week for Moving/Housing week we discuss the film Moneyball and how baseball is affected by science over the intangibles, like heart. We also focus on major trades and how that affects player’s lives as well as major team moves and what that does to a team’s fan base.
