Welcome everybody to your favorite day of the week. I'm Anthony Erwin. I'm joined by Adam Mattis.

Adam, the last few, the last 48 hours have been

pretty insane. We have gone from a pretty actual act of activism from the

Milwaukee Bucks to a form of protest that has spread all the way throughout sports.

There was some time, there was a moment in time where we thought there would not be a

season and now the players have apparently voted to resume the season and the

NBA has tentatively talked about resuming the season on Saturday.

How have you been dealing with all of this? I mean you asked me how I've been dealing with it I've been thinking about it a lot I've been reading a lot of different things and just trying to

both understand all angles of it's a

as well as sort of try to think about what this means going forward which I think is you know

it's a historic time and I think some of the ripple effects of what have happened

this week are going to really transform not just the

NBA but professional sports and the relationship between professional players

owners the leagues and the fan bases that you know all kind of make up one one sort of group of people.

Yeah I've for Lockton Lakers a couple days ago I had Curtis Harris on the show and I was

legitimately blown away when I asked him you know where does this fit in the grand scheme of of athlete activism and he said this might be legitimately unique and I was floored and you know he

started talking about how in previous protests it was because of something that

happened to a team right people point to the Boston Celtics who refused to play in a

preseason game because the hotel they were all staying at was being racist. There were, you know, obviously

Jackie Robinson was standing up for himself and all other African Americans for being able to play in baseball.

He said this what makes this hugely unique was that this is a group of athletes and now it's a broad group of athletes who are

standing up for something that didn't directly impact their lives.
