Former BC Lions WR and Chairman of Els for Autism Marco Iannuzzi plus The Golf Channel's Damon Hack Join Me. 

Former BC Lions WR and former Chairman of Els for Autism Marco Iannuzzi joins me on this segment. Marco and I talk about his college football days at Harvard and the Grey Cup Championship he helped the BC Lions win during his rookie season. Marco has been playing golf for years and we hear when and how he got introduced to the game plus how CFL legendary WR Geroy Simon gave him a set of clubs only to turn around and charge him for them after Marco took all the skins one day. We also talked about the great charity work Marco does for Els for Autism, Multiple Sclerosis of Canada, and winning Canada's Smartest Person competition and ending it by dropping the people's elbow.

Damon Hack talks about the work he's doing on his golf game with our resident Director of Instruction and mutual good friend Tom Patri. We also talks in depth about the special he hosted on The Golf Channel titled, Race and Sports in America. We hear about some issues that Damon has had with the police in his past plus the comments and insights shared by Charles Barkley, Ozzie Smith, Steph Curry, Jimmy Rollins and Troy Mullins on the show. We also talk about the role that sports plays in bringing us all together.
