WE BACK! It's been a minute but Courtney & André are back in your earholes (ew). We start by reacting to the outrageously silly Bos Nation FC, before getting into Angel City FC's sanctions, and their response. We also discuss the lawsuit against the San Diego Wave, and the important reporting done by Lesley Ryder and Diana Moskovitz. We discuss power dynamics, anti-SLAPP law, and Jill Ellis. Then we finally get to action on the pitch, including NWSL Shield Winners Orlando Thee Pride (Courtney is also big mad at Orlando for losing their invincibles run to Portland) and Temwa Chawinga's record breaking season. Finally, we move onto a little bit of action in Europe, including telling Gunners fans all the reasons why they should trust the process.

Donnovan is joined by Defector.com's Diana Moskovitz to give her perspective on Kyrie Irving sharing a documentary with anti-Semitic content, and how a lack of a direct apology led to his suspension. Will he play basketball in the NBA again this year - or ever again? Should he be allowed to? They discuss the culpability of the NBA itself in the decision-making process, including Nets owner Joe Tsai's involvement in the suspension potentially being lifted. Afterwards, Breakfast Television's Sid Seixeiro joins to discuss what to expect going forward in the Irving case - despite an interruption by the studio's fire alarm.

There's no end to this timeline. This past January Deshaun Watson shocked the NFL and the Houston Texans by requesting a trade after Nick Caserio was hired, then David Culley was hired, doing nothing to change Watson's mind about the whole thing; an ominous late night tweet detonated a barrage of sexual assault allegations with the official count piling up to 22, Houston didn't trade Watson, he headed to training camp, and was missing yesterday once the pads piled on. Trade rumors. Civil suits. The NFL's investigation to nowhere. A possible future trade. That's what we eventually have to look forward to. To help us make sense of this mess, The Defector's investigative editor Diana Moskovitz joined Battle Red Radio. Topics include: how the news rolls out for allegations like this, the similarity between the allegations, how long this can go on for, what you don't know, and the NFL's own investigative process.

Ken Beatrice passed away this week, and our host offer their heartfelt and funny goodbyes to sports radio trailblazer in Washington DC. Beloved in his adopted hometown, Beatrice was a Boston native, and fans of his hometown Patriots were not shy this weekend about booing Tom Brady and their division-leading Patriots. The Patriots did lose the game, but they're still not as sad as Lions fans. Bram also recommends Richard Deitsch's podcast interview with Deadspin reporter Diana Moskovitz, where they delve into the controversial site's inner-workings and ethics. Finally, a cautious and congratulatory eye to Mike Rice, former head verbal abuser/men's basketball coach at Rutgers, who is now employed... at a high school. The second those little punks try to test me... serenity now.

Got cat puke on your carpet? Dog pee on your couch? No worries, Jolie Kerr has you covered. Tune in for a pet-themed episode of Ask a Clean Person as Jolie is joined by Diana Moskovitz of Deadspin. Diana Moskovitz is a Staff Writer at Deadspin, where she has written about the organization No More, the NFL’s sham domestic violence partner, how Las Vegas authorities hid Floyd Mayweather’s history of beating up women, and the first woman who accused Bill Cosby of sexual assault. She has also somehow managed to work at Deadspin for more than a year without writing a single post about poop. In her spare time, she reads and worries way too much about her two cats.
