RUNDOWN
Episode “Jackie Robinson” begins with J-Ham explaining how his weekend plans were derailed. Mitch had quite an eventful Saturday of his own involving a former Sonics star. The guys react to game two of the NBA Finals including President Obama’s sleek outfit of choice in the arena. Then, they revisit the continued Malik McDowell lawsuit and his recent Twitter tirade. The guys get a hearty laugh about the stunning heavyweight boxing victory by Andy Ruiz who probably can’t even put on the championship belt. Later, Mitch is joined by Steven Elliott who talks about his heroic and tragic autobiographical account War Story. Gerald McCoy’s prospects of landing in Seattle have dissolved, is this a big miss by the Hawks front office? The lowly Mariners made a trade over the weekend and it doesn’t move anyone’s needle although two baseball statistics may raise your eyebrows.
