Beat the heat with some cool NFL talk!

It’s hot outside, and just in time for training camps to get started next week. Have fun practicing out there. But there is a way to stay to cool, with some red-hot NFL talk on this week’s new podcast.

On the Family Hour, Stephen White and I are talking about all kinds of hot topics burning up the NFL world right now. This week’s show includes:

  • Practicing in the heat. Is football better in hot or cold weather?
  • Eugene Monroe’s retirement: He said it’s about his long-term health. How many more players are going to retire early over those same concerns? Or is Monroe’s situation different?
  • Roger Goodell FINALLY made the league’s top concussion-denying quack retire. As with most NFL moves to shore up the league office’s credibility, it’s too little, too late.
  • The Dolphins signed Arian Foster this week. What does he have left? How does this change their offense?
  • The Jets! They surprised us all with a last-minute move to lock up Mo Wilkerson, but what about this Fitzpatrick thing?
  • Did the Chiefs make a big mistake in not signing Eric Berry to long-term deal? (Hint: yes, and there’s going to be fallout).

You can listen above, or you can subscribe to our podcast on iTunes, if that's your sort of thing.
