The Joe Rose Show

Tuesday’s show opens with continued reaction to Brendan Sorsby entering the NFL Supplemental Draft following a controversial college football situation, sparking debate about his talent, off-field concerns, and which NFL teams might take a chance on him. The conversation continues with Dolphins offseason updates, including roster moves, Malik Willis’ outlook as the starter, and ongoing questions about Miami’s defense as training camp approaches. NBA talk dominates the middle of the show as Giannis Antetokounmpo trade rumors continue to swirl with Miami still in the mix, while the guys also explore whether Jaylen Brown could be a realistic alternative target for the Heat. The show also hits World Cup buzz after a strong start from the U.S., discusses broader sports trends like load management in tennis and golf, and wraps with lighter topics including Joe’s food habits, a WQAM watch party, and a look ahead to Dolphins training camp.

Hour 1 opens with the latest twist in the Brendan Sorsby saga as the former Texas Tech quarterback officially declares for the NFL Supplemental Draft, bringing an end to one of the most controversial college football stories of the year. The conversation then shifts to the NBA, where Giannis Antetokounmpo trade rumors continue to dominate headlines and spark debate about whether Miami should pursue the two-time MVP or pivot toward Celtics star Jaylen Brown. Joe questions why Boston would even consider moving Brown after the season he just had, while also discussing reports that the Heat remain firmly in the mix for Giannis and may already have a strong offer on the table. The hour also includes World Cup discussion and a look at the Marlins, whose recent hot streak came to an end with a 7-0 loss to the Phillies, though optimism remains high after the club’s strong stretch over the past two weeks.

Hour 2 opens with discussion around Brendan Sorsby’s decision to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft, with Joe calling it the right move while the guys debate which teams could take a chance on him, including the Cowboys and Dolphins. The conversation centers on whether Sorsby is worth the risk despite alleged off-field concerns, including gambling issues, and if he can be viewed as a low-risk, high-reward prospect or more of a potential distraction that NFL teams may want to avoid. The guys also touch on the Dolphins releasing Kion Smith and broader roster turnover, along with comparisons to past league situations involving players with similar controversies. The hour wraps with a lively edition of Hollywood’s Headlines, featuring the fallout from the Knicks’ championship celebration, viral social media moments involving OG Anunoby and Mikal Bridges, massive World Cup advertising revenue during hydration breaks, and former USMNT star Landon Donovan calling out United Airlines over a travel dispute.

Hour 3 opens with Kyle Crabbs joining the show to weigh in on the Brendan Sorsby situation, praising his elite physical tools and suggesting he’s more gifted than recent first-round pick Ty Simpson. While Crabbs acknowledges that gambling concerns will play a major role in how teams evaluate him, he still expects strong league-wide interest, including from contenders like the Eagles, and believes the Dolphins should at least consider taking a swing without overpaying. The conversation also hits Dolphins roster moves, including the release of Kion Smith, the addition of Major Burns from the UFL, Malik Willis’ outlook as a potential starter, and continued questions on defense, especially at edge rusher, along with standout OTAs from Kevin Coleman and Caleb Douglas plus Chris Bell’s injury status. The discussion then shifts heavily to the NBA, where Giannis Antetokounmpo trade rumors are expected to intensify in the coming days, with Miami still firmly in the mix as a potential landing spot. The guys debate whether Giannis or even Jaylen Brown would be the better fit for the Heat, how either would instantly transform the roster, and what Miami would realistically have to give up to land a true superstar. The hour wraps with World Cup buzz, including several draws across the tournament and a strong 4-1 opening win for the United States.

Hour 4 opens with a discussion on the growing trend of load management across individual sports, as more tennis players are skipping tournaments due to injuries and top golfers are also beginning to strategically sit out PGA Tour events to manage their schedules. The conversation then shifts back to the NBA, where the Heat continue to pursue Giannis Antetokounmpo aggressively, but Joe says if Miami misses out, he would take Jaylen Brown in a heartbeat given his star-level production and versatility as a top option in Boston. From there, the show takes a lighter turn as Joe talks about his favorite desserts and some of his worst eating and drinking habits, along with excitement for WQAM’s big Friday watch party for the USA soccer match. The hour wraps with a look ahead at the NFL calendar, noting that the Dolphins are just a few weeks away from training camp and the start of a pivotal season
