Kevin and Thom on a weird trip today. It started with pain meds before turning towards Joaquin Phoenix, Yellowstone, and then Montana. They talked baseball, Bertans, and Bobby Mitchell too. And there was more….lots more.
Kevin in today to discuss Bobby Mitchell’s jersey being retired a day after George Preston Marshall’s statue in front of RFK Stadium was taken down. Kevin tried to explain/simplify the baseball negotiations and discussed why it’s crazy for the NFL to think about a Dr. Fauci “bubble” city.
Kevin and Thom discussed the latest recommendations from Dr. Faucci that the NFL needs an NBA “bubble” city strategy or it shouldn’t be played. It led to a broader sports/pandemic discussion which included dire predictions from Thom about this coming Fall. More including Kevin’s thoughts on the McGwire-Sosa doc and the “June 17th” 30 for 30 ESPN doc too.
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.
