The Fan Morning Show

Former Indianapolis Colt Edgerrin James joins the show to give his take on the Jonathan Taylor situation. James argues that valuing your running game only makes the rest of the team stronger. In a lot of ways, the stronger your running game the better a team's passing game can become. He talks about his training program and why he'd choose to train in hotter weather to maintain better shape for the regular season. Training with college students in order to continue to raise his game and being closer to his family. Training camp always gave James a boost in energy. Jake asks about James's impression of Anthony Richardson. He believes that Richardson has the ability to become a complete player and has all the tools around him necessary to excel.

(00:00 - 20:55) - Indianapolis air quality has improved due to last nights storms. Busy day for news in sports, the Colts released Isaiah Rodgers and Rashod Berry yesterday. Jake believes that there are several players who probably have passively and unintentionally violated the NFL's gambling policy. How many players have placed a wager on a baseball game from a team facility thinking it was okay? Bad weather cancelled Marc's Savannah Bananas trip last night. Jake went to see Noel Gallagher of Oasis last night. Pacers (20:56 - 25:06) - Morning Checkdown (25:07 - 46:53) - Greg Rakestraw of the ISC Network and Indy Eleven joins the show. He and Jake immediately go back and forth on the news of Isaiah Rodgers suspension. Rakestraw believes that if Rodgers is allowed back in the league in the near future, he stands a chance to sign with a team again. This story is going to keep people's attention for awhile, possibly the next season or two, but players might start making mistakes again because of how available gambling is and how loose the rules are currently. Rakestraw goes over the six rules that the NFL has on gambling currently. Marc gets a quick word on Rakestraw's view of Pacers free agency. (46:54 - 1:10:00) - The second hour kicks off with Jake's view on how people treat Independence Day. Fireworks are great for 4th of July, but not at 1a.m. Chicago has a street race coming up, but the event isn't bringing a lot of people or business to Chicago. Taylor Swift brought more people to Chicago than the upcoming race will. Callers weigh in on their views of 4th of July, the Chicago Cubs, and Isaiah Rodgers. (1:10:01 - 1:20:35) - More callers phone into the show. Topics include Veterans and their relationship with fireworks, Isaiah Rodgers suspension, and Colt's season expectations. Jake details the different moralities involved in sports betting as an athlete. This scandal could affect the NFL's future if it is ever revealed that betting on games played a role in anyone's performance during a game. (1:20:36 - 1:33:07) - A caller verifies that Producer Sam's earlier statement on Oasis's hit song Wonderwall was true. That same called lobby's for Jake's fandom for their high-school basketball team. IndyCar talk about getting them to race again in Loudon. Race talk about how people view Romain Grosjean and Pato O'Ward. (1:333:08 - 2:00:56) - Joel A Erickson of the IndyStar joins the show to go into deep detail about Isaiah Rodgers year-long suspension from the NFL. Was Erickson surprised when Rashod Berry was released as well? Berry was suspended indefinitely even though he could have only bet one NFL game as a player last year. Erickson notes that betting on any game inside a team facility is earning players a six-game suspension, betting on the NFL is earning the year-long suspension. Erickson thinks that compared across multiple leagues the NFL actually has pretty relaxed gambling restrictions. The NCAA won't allow you to bet on any sport they govern. The Colt's cornerback room is young and inexperienced, they need to sign a veteran to help out the defense.

Jeremy Fowler, senior writer for ESPN calls in to talk about Isaiah Rodgers' looming suspension. Will Rodgers have to apply for re-instatement after this suspension? Fowler believes that the only noteworthy part known so far is the length of the suspension. Fowler doesn't know if the NFL is trying to impose suspensions on a sliding scale or if they feel this is what they view as being a punishment for all players who take part in this sort of violation. The NFL wants to get ahead of a widespread gambling scandal by trying to re-enforce their gambling rules and practices. Fowler believes tomorrow could be the day we get more news on the NFL's upcoming suspensions & more!Support the show: https://1075thefan.com/the-wake-up-call-1075-the-fan/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

(00:00 - 23:26) - The Thursday edition of Kevin & Query kicks off with the news of Rodgers alleged year-long suspension from the NFL over his gambling scandal. A perfect game was pitched last night as Domingo German of the New York Yankees managed to get it done in under 100 pitches.

(45:45 - 1:10:06) - The air quality in Indianapolis isn't much better from yesterday into today. Likely going to force several events to cancel in Indiana like a Noel Gallagher concert or the Savannah Banana's baseball game. Jake wants to know how a Banana's game works. Back to sports betting Jake draws a comparison between sports betting and bartending. One of the key issues with the apps is a player's ability to self-govern their actions. Examples of instances where players could have broken a rule mistakenly or not in bad faith. (1:10:07 - 1:31:48) - Scott Agness of the Fieldhouse Files Podcast is our guest in this segment. Jake immediately wants to know Scott's views on free agency who the Pacers can afford and who they can afford to get see leave. Is there any validity to the Pacers favoring Harrison Barnes as a free agent. Agness says Barnes is the type of player who will be offered a "JJ Redick" contract. Marc wants to know if Mathurin and Nembhard asked to take part in the Summer League. Agness said it was definitely their choice, but they will likely see little playing time.Interview Ran Long. Hour 2 Seg 3 was a touch and go. (1:31:49 - 1:58:40) - Jeremy Fowler, senior writer for ESPN calls in to talk about Rodgers possible suspension. Will Rodgers have to apply for re-instatement after this suspension? Fowler believes that the only noteworthy part known so far is the length of the suspension.

(00:00 - 24:26) - Kevin Bowen is out for the rest of the week so Kevin Bowen slides behind the host's chair. The smoke from Canadian Wildfires has hit Indiana even harder than yesterday. Smoke ruined a trip to the park for Marc and his kids. Colt's training camp schedule was released yesterday. Query recounts a time when Colt's training camp wasn't nearly as popular as it is today. Jimmie Johnson is going to miss the next NASCAR race due to tragic family events. How many Major League Baseball Players could a kid name today. Baseball has become a very regional sport in terms of popularity. (24:27 - 28:22) - Morning Checkdown (28:23 - 43:31) - A recap of the MLB PBR 6-pack office pool. Shoe Ohtani is a very young player already working towards legend status. Query, Marc, and fill-in producer Sam all play "Baseball Player, Pacer's Summer League Roster, or Guy Jake Went to High-School with." The guys then go over the Pacers Summer League Roster which was just announced last night. (43:32 - 1:15:56) - Stephen Holder of ESPN.com joins the program to discuss The Colts upcoming season. He talks about the expansion of the Colts team behind the scenes and how it is a greater indicator of the NFL at large right now. Holder breaks down the dates on Colts training camp, highlighting which dates will be of significance. Every fanbase thinks their team is the most injured team. There have been some complaints about the Colts turf field, while turf has been used for a while, its widespread use is still fairly new. When will the NFL announce any action on Isaiah Rodgers? Marc wants to know what a reasonable extension for Jonathan Taylor will be. (1:15:57 - 1:30:02) - NBA free agency is about to open up. Who is worth talking to for the Pacers? James Harden is an intriguing player in free agency to Jake. Not someone the Pacers should target but the narrative around him seems to have changed. What is going to happen with the Draymond Green and Jordan Poole situation, who will be staying with the team and who will be leaving? Marc and Jake throw around names like Kyle Kuzma, Jeremi Grant, and Harrison Barnes. Jake believes that Harrison Barnes is the most likely candidate to end up in Indiana. While inconsistent as a high scoring producer Barnes will bring a lot of veteran experience to the team. (1:30:03 - 1:55:27) - Ryan Seacrest was officially announced as Pat Sajak's replacement on Wheel of Fortune. Ryan Seacrest is a personality that is seemingly liked by all people.
