Summary
Clay Travis is fired up after reading a tweet from Joshua Wong, the leader of Hong Kong’s democracy protests, who criticizes LeBron James for only taking on U.S. human rights and not looking out for China. Clay says that it’s easy for star athletes like Megan Rapinoe and LeBron James to stand behind popular opinions in America, but when it comes to sticking out their necks for issues in the rest of the world, they are silent. Bobby Burack, one of Outkick’s new writers joins Clay to discuss athlete hypocrisy and all of the top stories in sports, plus sports media. Clay dives into the Orlando, NBA Bubble beginning to burst with some players starting to get cold on the idea, Frank Isola is in the house to discuss that and more. Clay keeps beating the drum for the MLB 4th of July HR Derby idea, and Barrett Sallee of CBS joins the show to discuss the start of College football season. Clay ends your week with a positive message about the return of sports in America!
