Is Baseball Failing the Black Community?

It's The Odd Couple with Chris Broussard and Rob Parker! Chris and Rob discuss Ian Desmond's comments suggesting that baseball has been 'failing minorities' and get into a heated debate about his merits, explain why we shouldn't be surprised that college athletes tend to me more vocal and willing to sacrifice in the name of social justice than professional athletes, discuss if Adrian Peterson is right when he says NFL running backs are just as valuable as NFL quarterbacks, and much more! And, The Odd Couple Callers deliver another award-winning edition of Trash Talk, and The Odd Couple Crew discuss the reasonableness of NBA players remaining celibate within the Orlando bubble. Plus, appearances by Hall of Fame running back Eric Dickerson, former MLB veteran Rod Allen, and Deadspin editor-in-chief Eric Barrow.
