Nick Lachey’s Bengals Love, Chargers Ejection & USC tryout... Plus: Sports’ Unbreakable Records

Throwbacks with Matt Leinart & Jerry Ferrara

You may think you know 98 Degrees frontman and Love is Blind co-host Nick Lachey, but do you really? For example, did you know he once tried out to play running back for USC without ever having played organized football in his life? Or that he once got kicked out of Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego during a Bengals-Chargers game? Or that he was granted a meeting with the NFL to voice his frustration with the way the Bengals were being run? Nick joins Matt Leinart and Jerry Ferrara to look back on all of these stories and so much more!

Plus, Alexander Ovechkin breaks a record that we thought was unbreakable and we debate whether it’s ok to text a professional golfer who’s leading the Masters on the morning of the final round.
