Have Sports & Politics Become Impossible to Separate? | Chuck Todd Joins SportsWrap

On this edition of SportsWrap w/Jason Page, Jason dives into one of the most controversial stories in sports: FIFA's decision to overturn Folarin Balogun's World Cup suspension after his red card against Belgium. Was it the right call? What precedent did FIFA use, and why do so many fans continue to question the governing body's credibility? Jason is joined by Chuck Todd for a wide-ranging conversation on the growing intersection of sports and politics. The discussion touches on FIFA, Donald Trump's involvement in the World Cup conversation, sportswashing, the influence of politics on major sporting events, and whether fans are becoming more accepting of politics entering the sports arena. The show also breaks down the highly anticipated NBA Summer League showdown between No. 1 overall pick AJ Dybantsa and No. 2 pick Darryn Peterson, a matchup that showcased the future of the NBA. Plus, Jason examines whether oddsmakers are giving Scottie Scheffler too much respect heading into The Open Championship after his surprising missed cut at the Scottish Open. Later, Tino Patino joins the program to preview NASCAR's weekend race in Atlanta and discuss the biggest storylines heading into the next stop on the Cup Series schedule.
