It turns out Jimmy Rollins is not a boat guy, at least as long as he\u2019s living in California. <\/p>\n
The former Phillies star and current TBS analyst won a MasterCraft X24 speedboat after sinking a hole in one<\/a> during the 12th hole at the American Century Championship at Edgewood Tahoe in July. <\/p>\n While Rollins initially said he planned to keep the boat, valued around $325,000, he ultimately decided to sell it to Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready. <\/p>\n \u201cI sold it to him with no hours and no water on it,\u201d Rollins told The Inquirer in an interview ahead of the National League Divisional Series.<\/a> \u201cBut I\u2019m sure that has changed already.\u201d <\/p>\n So how did the deal come about? Apparently, Pearl Jam singer Eddie Vedder is a big wakeboarding fan and was helping McCready find a boat. MasterCraft knew Rollins was selling the boat he won, so one thing led to another, and now McCready has the speedboat he was looking for. <\/p>\n \u201cThey told me and I was like, \u2018That\u2019s a pretty damn cool story,\u2019\u201d Rollins said. <\/p>\n Rollins had a boat when he owned a home on the South Tampa waterfront, but he sold that house in 2019<\/a>. Since moving to California the former National League MVP thought it was much more trouble to keep the craft than it was worth. <\/p>\n \u201cFrom my back door to my boat is one thing,\u201d Rollins said. \u201cBut to drive an hour just to be on the water for an hour. And it\u2019s a wakeboard boat. It\u2019s meant for lakes and wakeboarding, not for open water.\u201d<\/p>\n Rollins is part of a surprisingly Philadelphia-centric MLB studio show on TBS<\/a>, joined by former Phillies pitcher Pedro Martinez and Philly native Adam Lefkoe<\/a>, along with three-time All-Star Curtis Granderson.<\/p>\n While Rollins is openly rooting for his former team<\/a>, he was critical of <\/a>Nick Castellanos<\/a>\u2019 base running in Game 2 and not optimistic about the Phillies\u2019 chances of coming back down 0-2. <\/p>\n \u201cI think that\u2019s an impossible hill to climb,\u201d Rollins said Monday night. <\/p>\n \u00bb READ MORE: ‘Knock their heads off’: Jimmy Rollins rooting against the Dodgers on his surprisingly Philly-centric TBS show<\/a><\/p>\n The NFL shuts down Dan Orlovsky<\/p>\n ESPN analyst (and spouse of a die-hard Eagles fan<\/a>) Dan Orlovsky is almost as well known for his detailed play breakdowns on social media as he is arguing on Get Up or calling games on Monday Night Football. <\/p>\n In one example, Orlovsky went into detail explaining what went into Jalen Hurts<\/a>\u2019 shovel pass to Dallas Goedert<\/a> for a touchdown during the Birds\u2019 Week 4 win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers: <\/p>\n But this week, Orlovsky noted he was no longer \u201callowed to post video\u201d on social media in a missive about some moments during Sunday\u2019s wild Tennessee Titans-Arizona Cardinals game. <\/p>\n
