The Colin Kaepernick Effect & The NFL; Kyrie for Isiah and the MLB Pennant Race

As much as some would like the Colin Kaepernick story to go away, it continues to gain momentum. Kaepernick is still being shunned, blackballed... sidelined... or whatever you want to call it by NFL teams. However the community outcry is getting louder. Now other players are carrying the torch about the social injustice issues that led to Kaep's initial Anthem boycott. Andre Jones of "The Lunchbreak" on the new KYOK joins me live to talk about how this protest is manifesting throughout the NFL.

The Houston Texans are midway through preseason and it is clear where the teams is on the standing for the National Anthem. I'll tell you what head coach Bill O'Brien says is the team's position. I also spoke with LB Whitney Mercilus and OL Kendall Lamm about where they stand. 

Of course there is big news out of the NBA this week. The trade that sent Kryie Irving to Boston and Isiah Thomas to the Cavs... who do you think won that deal? Plus, a lot is happening on Capitol Hill... don't miss our weekly what's hot in politics segment. All of this and more on this week's show.
