Part 5/8:
The conversation then shifts to Dion Sanders, exploring his multifaceted sports career and his unyielding persona. Recounting a story from the first time they covered the Super Bowl in Fort Lauderdale—when Dion casually reminisced about a minor league game where he hit a triple off a tall, skinny reliever—the hosts marvel at his memory and versatility.
They discuss Dion’s impressive baseball stats from the 1992 World Series, where he went 8 for 15 and stole five bases. Had his team, the Toronto Blue Jays, won that World Series, Dion might have earned MVP honors. The hosts emphasize Dion's extraordinary athletic prowess, recalling that he almost was the World Series MVP while participating in football, baseball, and track.
