fsrr this is the best of the herd with colin cowher on fox sports radio

welcome back to the herd ladies and gentlemen it is tuesday. A beautiful Tuesday in July. And we wait as sports

fans for the big decision. Will Mauricio Bochitino return as the U.S. National Soccer Team

coach? That's not the big one, but we're waiting. We're waiting. What's up, man?

It's me, Jason McIntyre. In for Colin Cowher, joined by Rachel Nichols. I had to start with a joke, Rachel. Obviously, everybody's waiting for LeBron. I heard a chuckle. I'm going to say, I'm waiting for both of them. I'm with you. It's all good. I'm not sure that his decision

is going to affect as many people

as LeBron's decision,

but we'll see.

Well, when we find out how many people watch the World Cup finale later today, we'll adjust that into that Pocitino number.

Will cupcakes be involved, though?

Yes, cupcakes, obviously. We'll do a little soccer later in the show. World Cup is over. I'm getting over my malaise post-World Cup. Obviously, some NBA. A big college football story we'll talk about here very shortly. But we're going to start with LeBron James. This is where we are, folks. It's been three weeks, not to quote the bare naked ladies, but it's been three weeks since LeBron and the Lakers had that conscious uncoupling, depending on who you believe, either the Lakers said, we're going to get out of the LeBron business, or LeBron said, I'm going to be a free agent. I'm going to move on, guys. Regardless of what you believe, we're all still waiting for

LeBron. And it is getting to that phase where it's a little annoying, right? All the insiders claim, oh, he's going to make a decision. It was last week. It's today. Patrick Beverly, as if he's some kind of LeBron guy is out here saying, yeah, Monday, it's coming. And LeBron's campus leaking stuff to make it all interesting.

Folks, you know what this feels like, right?

This feels like the age. saying, yeah, Monday, it's coming. And LeBron's camp is leaking stuff to make it all interesting.

Folks, you know what this feels like, right? This feels like the aging rock star who's on tour

and the concert's supposed to start. He's coming out on stage at 9 o'clock. But no, he's going to make

wait. He's going to chill in the green room, devour skittles.
