Spain’s Defense Smothers France, Soccer’s Ascendance In America, NFL Quarterback Rankings

Colin is joined by Danny Parkins, host of "First Things First" on FS1

They start with Spain upsetting France in the World Cup semifinal in a game where they dominated defensively and smothered France's vaunted attack and has the potential to turn in the greatest defensive performance ever in a World Cup (3:30).

They make their predictions for the impact of this World Cup on the future of soccer's popularity in America (12:00) and agree that the passion and consumption of the World Cup shown by American fans has been absolutely remarkable (22:30).

Colin defends his NFL quarterback rankings and his take that Caleb Williams is the third best quarterback in the league, but gets some grief from Danny (31:00).

They react to WNBA commissioner Kathy Engelbert bailing on her interview with Dan Patrick and argue that Dan had every right to be upset publicly, and that the WNBA was completely unprepared to capitalize on the superstardom of Caitlin Clark (40:30).

Finally, they react to Bulls #4 overall pick Caleb Wilson's standout performance in summer league (53:00) and discuss their favorite stand-up comedians (1:00:00).
