On Headline Sports podcast with Jessica Kwong:

#1 Jessica, Colorado Avalanche fans and members of the media expressed their displeasure with longtime Avalanche reporter Mike Chambers from the Denver Post who shared his photos with Avalanche team captain Gabriel Landeskog. Chambers in the photos was seen hoisting the Stanley Cup and also seen holding the cup with Landeskog.

#2 One of the things that is the number one rule is objectivity in our job as journalists and Chambers knows this as much as anybody else as a main beat writer for the Avalanche. Do you see this a matter of getting caught up in the moment?

#3 Tennis star Serena Williams a seven time Wimbledon Champion lost for the first time in the Grand Slam in a year. Williams lost to a 115th ranked ranked player Harmony Tan, 7-5, 1-6, 7-6, it appeared that Williams still had her strength, her passion, during the match. It was at the start of the match that she had a number of missed shots, made unforced errors, and hit some balls that went wide and long. Is Serena just losing a little off her game?

#4 Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Bryce Harper is out of action as he will need surgery to stabilize a broken thumb he sustained on Saturday after he got hit with a 97 MPH by the San Diego Padres Blake Snell in the bottom of the fourth inning. The pitch was high and tight on the hands and it got his thumb. Harper exchanged words with Snell but later in a post game interview said the pitch was not intentional.

#5 Jessica, former assistant football coach at Bremerton High School in Washington State Joseph Kennedy has taken a knee in prayer. There had been a comparison to his taking a knee to former San Francisco 49er quarterback’s Colin Kaepernick’s taking a knee who protested during the national anthem because continuous law enforcement brutality against minorities and people of color. Kennedy sued the school district for wrongful termination and won taking the case all the way to the US Supreme Court because of religious discrimination.
