Sports Professors: How the Blackhawks Failed Plus Thoughts on a Big MLB World Series
This week on the show, a closer look at sport's chain of command. Professors Kenneth L. Shropshire from Arizona State's Global Sport Institute and Scott Rosner from Columbia University discuss the ways in which the Chicago Blackhawks and the NHL failed in the Kyle Beach sexual assault saga, and how in 2021 such a devastating failure can still happen. Then, a look at MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred's comments on the Atlanta Braves and the tomahawk chop, and why the focus is on peripheral stories relating to race and culture at this year's World Series.
