The Ian Furness Show

Ian is live from the VMAC once again as training camp continues. As the conversation over equal pay in soccer continues, Megan Rapinoe still hasn't taken the pitch for the Reign. This is the perfect opportunity for Rapinoe to keep interest in women's soccer alive in a league that struggles to bring in revenue. More revenue for the league means more revenue for the players. Now is the time to take the field, bring in the fans, and build the sport. Bobby Wagner's deal got done. It was announced after 5pm on Friday which is usually where teams release stories they want to quickly disappear. Odd that it happened then, but at least it's done. We hear from linebacker Cody Barton who spoke with the media earlier today. The Hawks brought back DeShawn Shead in the last few days. He sits down with Ian to discuss his return, and his battle back from the ACL injury.

We take a break from football for a few to focus on the Mariners with Fox Sports senior baseball analyst Bill Krueger. The trade deadline is fast approaching without a lot of urgency. How has that changed in recent years, and how does that relate to the game in the bigger picture. Felix's time in Seattle is likely done, will we see him out there again? Curtis Crabtree stops by with some of his notes from today's practice. Texts react to Megan Rapinoe and women's soccer at 49451. Softy pops in from the studio before the afternoon show.

Ian is out at the VMAC as Training Camp continues. Leading off the show, second-year running back Rashaad Penny who Brian Schottenheimer had a lot of great things to say about today. Penny talks about the differences between Years 1 and 2, the game slowing down, and his relationship with Chris Carson. KJR's own Seahawks reporter Curtis Crabtree drops in for a few with his thoughts on the second day of training camp. Brian Schottenheimer is now on Twitter. Undoubtedly he's already being flooded with demands to through the ball more. We hear his thoughts on the offense, plus some interesting comments from Russell Wilson. On Something Good: All 50,000 gold, silver, and bronze Olympic and Paralympic medals in the Tokyo 2020 games will be made of recycled cell phones.

Training camp may be underway, but don't forget there's still two months left of baseball season. The trade deadline is on Wednesday, and surely that will bring some excitement, right? Well, maybe. The Athletic's Corey Brock talks about what we might see Jerry Dipoto do before the upcoming deadline, plus, is Felix done? We know the reign of the King is about over, but will we at least get a chance to see him on more time before he leaves town? NFLDraftScout's Rob Rang, our NFL Draft analyst has been with us all the way as we've gotten to know these latest rookie players. So how are they looking now that training camp has begun? He runs through his notes. Softy joins us from the air conditioned KJR studios as he prepares for the afternoon show.
