    Episode 18: Doc Gooden

    There is no athlete who meant more to me growing up than Dwight Gooden. My first year of fully following baseball was 1985, when Gooden had one of the greatest seasons in MLB history. Gooden posted a record of 24-4 with a 1.53 ERA and 268 strikeouts to win the pitcher's Triple Crown and Cy Young. Over the next decade, a large mural of Dwight Gooden hung by the Lincoln Tunnel almost as if it was the welcome to New York. I walked with Dwight Gooden a week after he had his #16 retired by the Mets. It was a dream come true.

    Episode 17: Shaheen Holloway

    Fresh off Seton Hall's victory in the NIT, I walked with coach Shaeeh Halloway. A graduate and player at Seton Hall, Coach Sha is a rising star in the NCAA. His first appearance on the grand stage was in 2022, when he led St. Peter's, a #15 seed, to the Elite Eight. In the last two seasons, Coach Sha took a team that was forecasted to be among the bottom of the Big East to a 4th place finish. After being passed over for a tournament bid, he led the Pirates to their first NIT Championship in 71 years. Shaheen Halloway talked about the challenges of coaching in the NIL era as we walked on the campus.

    Episode 16: P.K. Subban

    In May, I walked around Branch Brook Park in Newark with NHL legend P.K. Subban. A 13-year NHL defenseman, Subban played with the Montreal Canadiens, Nashville Predators, and New Jersey Devils. He was a three-time All-Star and won the Norris Trophy in 2013 with Montreal. He wrapped his career with the Devils winning the King Clancy Memorial Trophy in 2022. P.K. Subban is part of ESPN's coverage of the Stanley Cup Final, which heads to Edmonton for a crucial Game 3 on ABC on Thursday. During our walk, we discussed the state of the Devils, while with New Jersey, Subban provided veteran leadership to a young team. However, the results were not always good which led to me having to face P.K. with my previous mean tweets.

    Episode 15: Eric LeGrand

    On October 16, 2010, Eric LeGrand's life changed forever. While covering a kickoff for Rutgers, LeGrand suffered a severe spinal cord injury. LeGrand was one of Rutgers' top defensive players when he slammed into Army's kick returner Malcolm Brown. The collision left Eric LeGrand paralyzed from the neck down. Instead of lamenting his injuries, LeGrand took it as a challenge and has become an inspiration for Rutgers and spinal injury recovery. Initially unable to breathe on his own, LeGrand worked tirelessly to rehab and eventually got off the ventilator and regained movement in his shoulders. Over the past decade, Eric LeGrand has become a force for Rutgers, as his #52 hangs over SHI Stadium. That is where we walked and talked about the optimism and belief that Eric LeGrand will one day rise from his wheelchair and walk again. Today, Eric LeGrand works for Rutgers Radio and has his own coffee and whisky brands. Both of which help raise money for spinal injury research.

    Episode 14: Brian Baumgartner

    Known for his role as Kevin on The Office, Brian Baumgartner is serious when it comes to barbecue. One of Braumgartner's most famous moments on The Office was when he dropped the chili pot. The meme helped him launch his first cookbook, "Seriously Good Chili." Now Brian Baumgartner has a second book, "Seriously Good Barbeque." The book has over 100 recipes from all over the country. I took the time to make two of them for Tank Cooks, and then I went for a walk with Brian around Central Park, walking past commencement activities from FIT.

    Episode 13: Stanley Cup

    The Stanley Cup is the most prestigious, historic, and timeless trophy in team sports. For 130 years, hockey's best have competed for it; to touch it is to touch history. In 1893, Lord Stanley of Preston purchased it in a London Market for ten guineas ($48.67 USD), equivalent to $1,650 today; the Stanley Cup was originally called the Dominion Hockey Challenge Cup. Lord Stanley was Governor General in Canada, loved hockey and wanted a trophy to be given to the best teams who competed in a series of challenges with the winner keeping the cup, which was just the original bowl. The challenge era ended in 1910, but teams from as far as the Yukon traveled great distances to compete for the Stanley Cup. Since 1910, it has stood as professional hockey's Holy Grail. The original bowl resides in the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto. Today, there are two Stanley Cups: a display cup that is a stand-in at the Hall of Fame and a presentation cup, which travels the world with players from the winning team each summer. As we get set for the Stanley Cup Final next week on ESPN and ABC, I had a chance to walk with one of the cup's chaperones and talk about the history of the hallowed chalice.

    Episode 12: Paul Rabil

    As the Premier Lacrosse League (PLL) approaches its new season, I had a chance to walk with its founder, Paul Rabil. Many consider Rabil to be the greatest lacrosse player of all time. Playing 11 seasons in the Major Lacrosse League, Paul Rabil won the MLL Offensive Player of the Year Award thrice in 2009, 2011, and 2012, and the MLL MVP Award twice, in 2009 and 2011. He also won the MLL Championship twice, in 2011 and in 2015. Paul Rabil is coming out with a book entitled "The Way of the Champion: Pain, Persistence, and the Path Forward," a guide to embodying a champion's mindset in sports, business, and relationships. The 2024 season is significant for the PLL, which will again have its games on ESPN+. This year, they will assign teams to cities and hope to play home games soon. The PLL season begins on June 1st, with games every weekend through September. #FrankWalks #TanksArmy Daily Rundown of Sports http://sportsecyclopedia.com/ http://www.barstoolsports.com/

    Episode 11: Jerry Ferrara

    Known primarily as Turtle on the hit HBO series Entourage, Jerry Ferrara is a New York actor. Raised in Brooklyn's Bensonhurst neighborhood, Ferrara is a fan of New York sports teams, especially the New York Knicks. While not working on film and television projects, Jerry Ferrara is a regular on Celebrity Row during Knicks' games at Madison Square Garden. Ferrara has had his own weight loss journey, losing 60 pounds as he wrapped up production of Entourage. Besides acting, Jerry Ferrara is active on social media, often commenting about Knicks games and other New York sports teams. We walked on a beautiful night in New York following the Knicks' win in Game 2 against the Pacers, marveling at the Orange and Blue adorning the Empire State Building.
