The Rams DESTROYED Their Future With ONE Pick — Plus The Russini Playlist

The NFL Draft happened, and somehow it was the most boring 8 minutes per pick we've ever sat through. The Rams reached for a QB, the Cardinals reached for a running back, and Mackay Lemon hung up on the Steelers GM live on TV. We're breaking down the picks that made us yell at the TV — plus the Mike Vrabel / Diana Russini scandal somehow gets weirder when the internet finds her 2022 Spotify playlist titled "Turn the Page." We have notes. Plus a top-10 college QB checks into gambling rehab, and Anze Kopitar plays his last game in LA.

Oh — and we built an app. Sports Hangover is now on iOS. Live scores, all your teams, the podcast, TSH Daily, and the Hangover Hotline (drop a 60-second take and we play it on the show). Download it: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/sports-hangover/id6762103937
