0:00.0 | Here's Jalen Rose, I'm David Jekoby. We are Jalen and Jekoby. What is it that we do? |
0:12.0 | And here to people! |
0:16.0 | They want we have a lot of news to get to and we start in Phoenix with the owner of the |
0:25.0 | Suns and the Mercury Robert Sarver, the investigation has been revealed and now he has a statement of the |
0:33.0 | implications. He said, quote, words that I deeply regret now overshadow nearly two decades of |
0:38.0 | building organizations that brought people together as a man of faith, I believe, in a tonement and the path to |
0:43.0 | forgiveness. I expected that the commissioners one year suspension would provide the time for me to focus, make |
