Clark Conners' Return and Personal News

Clark Conners, introduced by Dan Le Batard as a "huge showman" and "one of the great entertainers in show business," joined the show for his second week of celebrity prognostication. Greg Cote, who has a long-standing relationship with Clark, expressed his excitement, asking, "How do you feel? What is your present temperature on Clark Conners?" Clark, often referred to as "The Rifleman" due to his namesake Chuck Connors, was in good spirits despite some recent personal news.

Clark revealed that he had been laid off from the Miami Herald after 54 years. He humorously described the situation, stating, "They jettisoned my career," and added, "I'm flailing, I'm in the water right now. I'm looking for a life preserver." The news came as a shock to the co-hosts, with Dan Le Batard expressing surprise at the 54-year tenure. Clark quipped, "Anybody doing something that long is either a legend or they've been doing it for too long." He maintained a positive outlook, even joking about potentially becoming a wrestling manager, especially with AEW coming to Coral Gables next month.
