What Josh Hamilton's self-reported relapse to the MLB means for the Angels, the tiny detail that's missing from the Pacquiao-Mayweather fight, and more in sports.

Wednesday means it's time to get sporty with Andy and Brian Kamenetzky.

Josh Hamilton, outfielder for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, was one of baseball's best power hitters in recent years, which is why the Angels signed him to a gigantic contract that has over $80 million left. But, he has had a very public battle with cocaine and alcohol addiction, and this off-season he self-reported a relapse to MLB. The Kamenetzky brothers begin by filling us in on what this means for the team.

From there, they tell us more about:

  • The NFL schedule is out, and Tim Tebow is back, sort of. 
  • The Manny Pacquiao-Floyd Mayweather is 2 1/2 weeks away, but there's one tiny detail that's still missing.
