View descriptionShare
 

Dave Garner and John Davis covered a wide range of sports topics, starting with promotions for upcoming events at Bradley’s Bar & Grill and partnerships around Father's Day weekend. The show highlighted the Braves’ rain-suspended game against the Giants, Georgia baseball’s run in the College World Series, and growing excitement around the World Cup, including praise for Lionel Messi’s performance and discussion about international teams setting up training bases across smaller American cities. They also previewed the U.S. Open, NASCAR’s upcoming San Diego race, and encouraged listeners to join the World Cup and Father’s Day festivities.

The second half of the show focused heavily on football and athlete well-being. Dave and John discussed the changing landscape of college athletics, including the rebuilt Pac-12, Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby’s move to the NFL supplemental draft, and the challenges teams face when evaluating players with gambling-related issues. The conversation then turned to former NFL player Aldon Smith’s passing, leading to an in-depth discussion about mental health, life after football, CTE concerns, and the importance of seeking help and maintaining strong support systems both during and after an athletic career.
