Aaron explains about how the NBA player’s complaints about the “bubble” and MLB players arguing over money is proof they have lost touch with the common fan. Even with both set to return, do fans have the right to be mad? And why the player’s actual complaints have nothing to do with health issues, but instead inconvenience.

Oklahoma State head coach Mike Boyton: Aaron is joined by Oklahoma State head coach Mike Boyton to discuss his team’s battle with the NCAA. Coach Boynton explains what his school was actually accussed of, and why he believes the punishment doesn’t fit the crime. Also, is the NCAA lumping the Cowboys in with all the other schools caught up in the FBI probe?
