Amin Elhassan joins the show to discuss the intricacies of the comments from Gilbert Arenas and Paul Pierce toward South Sudan's basketball team ahead of their matchup with Team USA and Luol Deng's response to those comments. We examine how Luol took the high road, the xenophobia soaked into what they said, the racism these players have faced over the years, and the Top 5 People Who Make Amin Feel Like a Piece of Shit. Then, Greg finally gets his chance to question Ron Magill's Africa story, and Deshawn Foster gets off to rough start as a Big 10 Head Coach. Plus, it's time for Thursday Thunder, a show spelling bee, and, as we discuss our Olympic sport coverage draft, Jeremy ruins everything with wokeness.
