This week we talk to Vincent Schilling, associate editor from Indian Country Today about the origin and present ramifications of the Kansas City Chiefs name and mascot.

We have ‘Choice Words’ about Kobe Bryant as we reflect on his history on and off the court. We also feature a conversation with The Athletic’s Michael Lee, who knew Kobe. We got ‘Just Stand Up’ and “Just Sit Down” awards to airport workers engaging in a hunger strike outside the Miami airport and Marcus Morris of the New York Knicks, as well as a special ‘Kaepernick Watch’ about a PETA ad. All that and more on Edge of Sports!
