DROPPIN DIMES 006: “The Goon Life”

A familiar face dropped by the show for episode six – Kyle Goon, Sports Writer for the Salt Lake Tribune.

Goon, who covers multiple sports at the University of Utah, brings you up to speed on the baseball, softball and basketball teams. He talks about the baseball team rallying together for their injured teammate DaShawn Keirsey Jr. and coming out with an 11-10 victory over Arizona State, Keirsey’s future after he ran into the outfield wall and collapsed, dislocating and fracturing his left hip, how the Utes softball team has come a long way, and what the future holds for the Runnin’ Utes.

During the show, Goon opens up about what made him want to become a sports writer and how stellar of an athlete he was growing up (just kidding – according to Goon he wasn’t that good at sports growing up). We also discuss the NBA, what it takes to be a good analyst, and parents like Lavar Ball.
