JP Finlay/NBCSports Washington was a guest with Kevin today. JP had a healthy suggestion on the golf course “Transfusion” before the boys spent 45 min talking Redskins. Kevin also had thoughts on Serena Williams announcing that she is excited to play in the US Open. He also weighed in on an NFC EAST ALL-DECADE TEAM.
Kevin opened with an exciting Facebook friend request and Thom opened with SMILE chalked out on a nearby sidewalk. They talked about the current states of play for the NBA and MLB. They also discussed the McGwire-Sosa 30 For 30 and Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy’s “OAN” tee-shirt.
Kevin opened with Mayor Bowser’s comments on the Redskins’ name on The Team 980 this morning. Ben Standig/The Athletic then joined the show for a good 45-min or so for a Skins’ football discussion as well.
Kevin had a problem with Thom thinking Andy would make a better Redskin HOF presenter than him. That’s where they started. They talked about the greatest NBA shooters of all time, Ron Rivera’s organizational leadership, and the latest Dwayne Haskins’ tweet as well.
Kevin had Jason LaConfora/CBS Sports on the show today. Among the topics: 1) Kevin as DC guy and Jason as a Baltimore guy talked about the dynamic between sports fans in both cities during the years with no baseball in DC and no football in Baltimore. 2) Jason shared some memories of covering the Redskins for the Washington Post. 3) Jason weighed in on Ron Rivera, Dwayne Haskins, the Anthem, Kaepernick, and more.
Kevin had to deal with a depressed Thom today. From a new world of journalistic rules, to Incel, to Death By Dignity. Thom was on the couch with Dr. Sheehan for much of the show. Some sports too including the new DC Sports Hall of Fame inductees and how the NFL will handle the anthem in 2020.
