Summary
It's The Odd Couple with Chris Broussard and Rob Parker! Chris and Rob explain why it's so important for black athletes to make their voices heard in light of the protests across the country following the death of yet another unarmed black man at the hand of police, tell us why they're glad that the NFL finally admitted that the decision to blackball Colin Kaepernick had absolutely nothing to do with abilities (and wonder aloud if it's not too late to see him back in the League), vent their frustrations about James Dolan's refusal to issue a public statement about the killing of George Floyd, and much more! Plus, appearances by FOX Sports NFL analyst and Super Bowl champion Greg Jennings, Mississippi Valley State men's basketball coach and 2x NBA champion Lindsey Hunter, and Yahoo Sports senior NFL reporter Charles Robinson.
