Episode 2093: US Murph On His Beloved Azzurri And His Text War With Moneyball’s Billy Beane; Bryson V Driver, Dublin Won’t Win

Fri 16th Jul 2021
Eoin, Ken, Murph and Brian Murphy

Brian Murphy is San Francisco born and raised – an American. His Irish heritage we have already covered… but he is also a major, MAJOR fan of Italy’s football team, as befits a man with a grandmother born outside Genoa.

 

So he was celebrating as much as any Azzurri fan on Sunday, but he had some arrogant England fan to deal with via text… Moneyball’s Billy Beane!

 

We also have time to discuss an NBA finals being dominated by the brilliance of Giannis Antetokounmpo but a finals that even in America is being outshone by Euro 20/21. How could that be?

There’s also Bryson V his driver, some shocking headlines in this morning’s Irish Times that didn’t escape the attention of hardened Dubs Eoin McDevitt and Ken Early, and there’s a bumper TV guide courtesy of Frances Murphy.
