Forgive us for the camera angle on K Dubs. What can we say? It was an emergency pod! UPDATE: Lindsay Newman and CJ Clinger were signed by MLP at the time of this publication. Tuesday, August 29, 7am. Live Updated Player Signing Arms Race Spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ubqaf8tSwNcypeIm2KAgiaVpeuuM2Z7NZraWk7mybNc/edit?usp=sharing Welcome to This Pickleball Life, episode 20, the emergency pod. We’ve got some crazy stuff going on in the pickleball world right now and we’re going to cover a bit of background and what it all means, but most importantly, why should anyone care? It’s pod two-zero, and who will come out the hero? Among the questions we cover: Will there be a redraft or will PPA players play MLP Atlanta in September? What will the future look like for MLP 2024? Will the Vibe owners pull out of MLP and what will happen to their teams? Will MLP allow its players to play any other tour events next year? What is the viability of vibe vs viability of MLP creating tour? Will the APP/MLP collaborate? Where does all of this leave the APP? Is this all good or bad for the sport?
